Odexed Google Edition 4.3 ROM - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Just a heads up. I flashed the following GE 4.3.ROM and everything seems to work great. The ROM is very snappy and battery life is amazing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341026
If you are using TWRP, make sure you do Factory Wipe, then wipe system, dalvik, cache, etc. Then install the ROM, and do wipe cache/dalvik again. I chose to fix permissions as well.
It should boot within a minute or so.
Note 1: No need to flash an M919 kernel. The included kernel seems to work just fine.
Note 2: I had to clean up the ROM a bit by uninstalling bundled Google "bloatware". The ROM is pre-rooted.
Note 3: Obviously, all TouchWiz/Samsung stuff will be gone.
All credits go to janjan.

Just a quick update. The extSDcard doesn't seem to be fully working at this time. I'll wait for the update I guess.

Biggest problem with GPe Roms for me is the lack of support from Titanium. Makes wanting to switch very difficult.

OP do you have a bug with the stock google keyboard when you go to change the volume of the keypress (in advanced menu of the keyboard settings) it doesn't change no matter what setting it's on?
Other than that it's a very nice ROM, I liked how he included the stock AOSP browser too...

I disagree... I think it is one of the most robust, for the paid version. I do agree there are some nice free alternatives, however-

[Q] Someone Help Please?

Hey guys, I seem to be having a problem on my phone recently.. Every time I start it up, or try to load an app or something, I get a message saying the process ends. This happens with Google Apps, Gingerbread Keyboard, Etc. I've tried wipe x3 then reflash, but it doesn't do anything.
I'm running
Genocide Kernel, Firmware 2.2.1, And Simply AOSP v3.1.2
I believe it's still on SFR 1.2 , but it's not saying that in the build number so I'm not sure..
someone please help.
If you have a good nand backup you can do a factory data reset and then restore advanced data. That will clear up any of the FCs. Or clear data in each of the apps giving you problems in settings>applications>manage applications>all and scroll to google services framework and click it and clear data. Do the same for the Gingerbread keyboard and any other app FCing.

I will try this, but the other problem is, it just started having problems with the android processor. Like, I did a restore, and all the sudden, I'm getting all the errors I was getting originally, and like the core & android processor thing is failing.

Sounds like you did not have journaling enabled. The Factory Data reset and a reflash of your ROM should fix it. Find out how to enable journaling for your ROM and do it.

I'm sort of new to this, so just one more question. Now, I had Syndicate Frozen Rom 1.2 on originally, then I flashed Simply AOSP 3.1.2 . Which one would I reflash, Simply AOSP or SFR?

I believe Simply AOSP is a full ROM including kernel so that would be what you would reflash.

When you install a new ROM like AOSP all of that is gone. If you want to do SFR and Genocide instead of AOSP then go ahead. We should get you up and running first though and then you know the steps to take when it screws up again.

Yeah Kenny is right, as usual. If you decide to try SRF 1.2, flash the ROM, then journal on zip, then the kernel you want to use then reboot and enjoy.

I would suggest either pming or posting on the AOSP thread what setup you're on and how best to convert to their Rom. Sometimes they've heard of conflicts or tricks that they can walk you through. I love SRF, but if you want to explore, you should know what works best to transition. You'll get it going, just keep toying. Worst you have to do is Odin and that's not terrible for the phone now and again.

Rom Manager- yes or no?

I've been reading a lot about Rom manager and the opinions are varied.
Is it okay to use for flashing, or better just to use it to download ROMs and get into CWR easier and go manual from there?
How about the backup function?

I use it for backups (because it's easy to give them a custom name), and Fixing Permissions. Anything else I do from CWM after downloading on a computer. Just my style.
I don't have a need for it, I like to do everything in recovery.
I like it for downloading Roms and installing... As stated above, backups are easy to rename or delete... I also use it flash kernals that I have saved in Dropbox... Check for new Roms...
All in all I'm happy with the Rom Manager app

I have had varied results with rom manager. It's great when it works, but really frustrating when it won't. I use it for backups and flashing kernels and themes and such, but I prefer to do roms manually, just because I like to wipe the dalvic cache, something rom manager won't do.

me 5, wish there was a alternative to rom manager
It's a great app, I use it for Backup and to check out random ROM info.
That been said, other than backup, I do everything else in CWM recovery.
Thanks for all the opinions!
So far, I've use it to download a rom, make backups (love that you can give them recognizable names) and to boot into CWM. Is it somehow safer to boot into recovery after shutting down the phone?
Saving back ups are great as others have pointed out, but it is also a great way for a newbie to flashing roms to get comfortable IMO. My first few months of flashing new roms was done all through rom manager.
I used mainly to update roms since they have that list thing, saves me time and effort to manually go on xda and such sites to check if the roms have been updated. Don't see it as anything nooby, just don't feel like scrolling through ads on XDA just to see if the TSMPoolParty rom has been updated or not, when I can just check in the Rom Manager and not have to deal with any ads.
The ads prevent you from coming here? Really?
Well thankfully for me I don't run into ads on any website I go to.
If you are using Firefox you should download Noscript. Probably the best Add-on I use to date. I never look at those annoying ads or pop-ups anymore.
I love ROM manager! It is excellent for making any backup, might I suggest weekly (or more!) backups with this app. It also good for downloading and managing new and current ROMs. Installing a ROM is probably most efficiently done through Clockwork though... unfortunately the ability to wipe certain things can't be done in this app... hopefully those are planned features though, if they're even possible.
I perfer to use CWM instead of rom manager. Just seems more safe to me. I can ensure that i do a full wipe and clear cache. Sometimes Rom Manager may not do it fully and when you flash roms is craps out.
Can someone tell me if there is a difference between turning off the phone and booting into CWM, and using Rom Manager to get there?

I am using JB 4.1.2, Jedi Mind Trick JB2 build with the beta kernel as a DD. Prior to I was using JMT X4 and this is much nicer IMO.
No issues on my end and all working as it should except for what dev knows about and is working on but those are not show stoppers for me.

I have been flashing roms since the original droid and have made many mistakes, even when I thought I knew exactly what I was doing. That said, after not following the instructions to the letter and having issues, I did follow them and "walla" NO problems. I found that letting it sit the full 10 minutes and using app2zip for program restore works perfectly. Don't theme or modify for a while, let it get use to the new rom. It is smooth, fast and stable.
there are issues with JMT 2.1
there was a lot of SOD=Sleep of Death issues
and cannot get past boot screen issues...
I went back to 1.1 for now and seems good...
btw... there is news of a new kernel version to come out tonight...

Just updated the rom today, works REALLY well.Most Buttery smooth stock-ish rom I've ever played with. If I didn't know better, I'd say it had v6 baked in. Or at least some of the edits.
I'd highly recommend it if you're looking for a stock rom, debloated, and running stable. Has Vol Wake mod, which I personally hate, but it's honestly not that bad as far as battery.
Stock battery and moderate usage I can last all day before having to throw it on the charger. By moderate, I mean a few hours of Memedroid, XDA, and Chrome. Perhaps an hour or two of gaming and some phone calls with a bit of texting.
JMT JB3 is out as of yesterday
It's running super smooth seems all good
the toggles even work now
only thing is the little battery glitch
where when fully charged you pull out at 100%
and it drops to 97% or 96% instantly
I am sure ptmr3 will fix that soon
This bug is universal with tmo jellybean roms

Download goo manager, go to menu and install recovery alternative, that will give you twrp.
Full wipe is an old term that refers to wiping everything. Twrp handles most of the wiping upon flashing. All you need to do is a factory reset, then flash the ROM off your choice. A dalvik and cache wipe after its optional, but not required. Though has been known to prevent issues.
Nandroid means to backup your current ROM. It's literally a snapshot of your current phone setup. Including apps, settings, and ROM. You can restore any time you want and it will be like you never left. It's built into recovery, just select backup/restore
Some ROMs don't want you to restore data. Jmt says it to prevent conflicting data. I don't see how it could hurt as long as it's just apps and not system apps, I'll have to test this, but basically, it means don't restore your data partition from a previous Nandroid. Titanium backups are fine to restore.
Any other questions just pm me. Writing this from my phone so if I forgot something let me know

Yes I am using this ROM and have been using ROMs by this developer since getting this phone. It is completely stable and runs better than straight stock. Yes it has a ton of features, but you don't need to use all of them. My battery life has also been great on this ROM. Read through that thread, you will see everybody agrees. Just flash it and try it. If you don't like it then flash something else.
There is no stock AT&T ROM with 4.2 or 4.3 for this phone. Your only option is an AOSP variety (cyanogenmod, aokp, etc..) Where you will lose some functionality.

Nothing will wipe you storage unless you make it. S3rX runs in Aroma which gives you the option to wipe Application data but won't erase the rest of your internal storage.
It is highly customizable and and includes multi window, just read the thread thoroughly and you will see what you can do.
I love S3rX and all the options it ships with by default.
i guess i wasn't clear - i meant my phone data (phone log, mms, picture, s-memo, etc...) I think when you flash rom, all of those data will be wiped. unless of course you back them up to restore later.
i will re-read the S3rX rom again. thanks

Again, ROMs won't wipe your data unless you specify it during the install. No one is going to do that because the backlash on them would be awful. You will either get the option in Aroma, or you have to manually do it in your recovery.
ok - thanks
I use SMS Backup+ to back up my phone logs and SMS/MMS to my Gmail account. Works great. Pictures are stored on your SD card and typically isn't wiped, even if you choose factory reset.

My GN2 is just slow, choppy, and laggy now.

I've been away from the ROM scene for a while now.
I'm still running Skynote 8.3 and the Perseus a36 kernel. I'm OC'd to 1.7ghz.
Lately, my phone just locks up, gets slow and choppy, and generally doesn't feel comfortable to use anymore.
I have Lagfix running (fstrim) nightly at 5am. I also use Clean Master to clean out my caches often.
I've tried repairing permissions, wiping cache and dalvik, nothing really helps.
Is there anything I can try to bring my phone back to life? I'm no stranger to flashing things or making tweaks.
Any ideas? I realize that development here has slowed down but I'm not in a position to upgrade to a gn3 until maybe the summer.
Thanks guys.

Development hasn't slowed down at all. It is actually increasing. For starters, you could do a full wipe because it doesn't hurt to do one of those every now and then. You could also flash the newest version of Skynote, because what you have there is several versions behind. You could also try Mean Bean, Zen's stock or steele's rom (when it is released) if you like TW based roms.
There are lots of other options as well.

Honestly the only reason I haven't upgraded is because I really would like to retain tuning abilities for the Wolfson chip. I wouldn't mind flashing a new kernel if I can still tune the DAC. I'm a bit of an audiophile lol.
I haven't found a current kernel with those abilities. Is there a way to enable tuning if I did flash a new kernel along with Skynote Air?

I haven't found a current kernel with those abilities. Is there a way to enable tuning if I did flash a new kernel along with Skynote Air?

All I can say if AGNi has all that and then some btw...
And then there's Viper audio mod.

That'll blow you away with what it can do to you sound!!!

Oh cool, I didn't notice that the AGNi kernel had tuning enabled...thanks! lol
As for Viper, I've been a little interested in it. However, I tend to stray away from software based audio corrections. I tend to like a direct, unmodified stream coming out of the DAC. It does look like something I could make use of though!
So basically I can flash Skynote Air and the AGNi kernel and be done with it all with working wifi? Do I still need to do the one-click procedure through ODIN for 4.3?

Yes on your first QUESTION, to the Rom & kernel...
No to the one click for 4.3. That'll just give you the 4.3 bootloader and Knox crap...
If you just follow step#2 from the above post then you won't need a different kernel. But I like all the extra setting that comes with the AGNi control app included in the KERNEL flash.

Cool, thanks.
So basically I'm doing this then:
-TiBu backup
-Nandroid backup
-Factory Reset
-flash Skynote Air
-Boot
-Flash any updates to the ROM (there is one I believe)
-Boot
-Flash AGNi
-Profit
Of course I'll wipe cache and dalvik along the way and repair permissions before final use.

Hah I forgot!
I usually just factory reset then wipe system. Wiping internal storage will wipe away all my media though, correct?
Geez, it's been way too long...

Alright. Just updated and used the agni kernel.
So far it's a little better. It's still kind of choppy and I get some lockups once in a while. I also notice that my ram usage is quite high. It's pretty much always at 1.6gb used.
I'm not quite sure what else I can do at this point. There's gotta be something in my system slowing everything down...

Hopefully you did a clean install when you updated your system...
As far as the AGNi kernel goes. You'll have to adjust the setting to your liking. If you just flashed it and using it stock no problem. [emoji106][emoji41]
But you could change some of the setting to see if it boost anything for you...
I personally tried a few different governors until I find the one I liked!!

Messed with the governors and schedulers, cleaned out some apps, the phone is now running great!
