Impossible, I've already had this problem with that rom and it worked.
This app always worked for the media process to stop draining battery. Did you choose option "disable"?

Go to developer options and check to disable HW overlays. I had the same issue and found that solution online somewhere and it worked for me.

What i had to do was go into root explorer in my rom tool box and move the apk into my system apps, change the permissions, and run just a regular reboot and it works fine.

lol you talking about the blue in the mic? yup I had that too, it bothered me a bit too, but I dealt with it, what I couldnt take was it killing my battery so fast, I reverted back via a nandroid and all was well. was no huge loss as I never really ever use S voice so........

There are no galaxy s4 apps "for sprint" lol... just download the system dump, extract the APK file you want, put it on your phone (push into system/apps, set permissions, etc) and see if it works! Of course always make a backup before trying something new!

I read in another thread that Multi Window Manager is the reason for this app to crash.
I uninstalled it and S Health started back up

[Q] Permissions management & protection

Hi
I've tried and looked for several apps to manage the app permissions: LBESM, Pdroid, XPrivacy and so on...
Some apps don't work correctly and others aren't compatible with AOSP 4.2.2.
I'd like to have your point of view to have trust app to manager the permissions and if possible (or another app) to identify possible malwares.
Atm the better one for Permissions mangement is "Permissions Management" available in my Rom and BitDefender Mobile Security for malwares.
Thanks.
PS: I know that several topics already deal with this subject but I'd like to discuss with fresh information and compatible (AOSP 4.2.2 + Note II).
I would recommend you to use ROM toolbox.
it has inbuilt auto start manager which helps you to manage permissions efficiently.
Thanks, I'll have a look soon.
What is the exact option?
Edit
I found it.
Other ideas ?

none of the apps is installing specifically installing from apk is unsuccessful, installing from play store works fine, restoring a backup is fine as well. It's just the apk(for any app) which is giving me trouble.

Im wondering if I have to root my tab to get this voice recorder apk to install...
I installed AT&t's visual voice mail APK no problems..
hmmmmmm
Late reply, but the people facing this issue might benefit from this.
Seems it was an issue because of trying to install apk with 'night filter' on. Android disables app install while any screen dimming app is on due to security reasons.
ps: still waiting for cm lol
