Thank you for your continuous interest in my work. I am happy to announce a new updated version of my Samy Deluxe ROM but please do not expect new versions on a daily basis. I release whenever I feel like and there is no masterplan or schedule I follow. As the Clash said, “the future is unwritten”, which means this could be the last Samy Deluxe update, or another step towards my world domination plan. Who knows?
First Samy Deluxe Release based on Android 5.0 Lollipop
This latest release is finally based on Android Lollipop but still fully adheres to my Samy Deluxe principles. No fancy-bull**** tweaks, no super-secret sauce is included, every element is straight to the point. It includes many (read carefully: not all!) Galaxy S6 features and apps, because I strongly believe this is what Samsung should have brought to all of its devices instead of forcing people to upgrade their hardware twice a year whenever Samsung releases a new flagship smartphone.
Since I am not a developer I haven’t been able to fully port all existing Galaxy S6 features. There are things missing which I am not able to fix.
I am also not including detailed instructions on how to flash this onto your Galaxy S4 because most people will not read it. If you were able to successfully flash a prior Samy Deluxe ROM version you will be able to do so again.
I installed the ROM pretty much like everybody else does. I copied the file to the internal disk, rebooted into recovery, went through the AROMA-Installer and kept my fingers crossed afterwards for a while since the very first boot up process takes an endless time.
I encourage everybody to take and modify this in every possible way and I neither don’t mind if you credit it or not, nor can I control what you are doing. Even though I must admit that I have some advanced mind control skills that will probably trick you into keep coming back here on a daily basis.
Or, to make a long story short: Use it!
Samy Deluxe ROM Questions & Answers
Do I have to full wipe before installation?
Yes, most probably you will get some errors so a full wipe (can be done via Aroma Installer) is recommended.
Do I have to flash a bootloader or modem?
Please use a Lollipop bootlader and modem if you encounter errors. Which one doesn't matter. Do not ask where to get them or how to flash. This is a development thread. Seak assistance in an appropriate thread - there is plenty of help here at XDA but you want everything directly served to you. Well, sorry but this is a "bring your own beer party"!
How often will you release updates and fixes?
Definitely maybe.
I have a problem. Can you spend your time fixing all the problems I have with my smartphone?
Yes, this is exactly what I wanted to do when I was a child. Send 500 Dollars for every hour I spend setting up the most basic things on your smartphone and we are good to go.
Will this work on my GT-i9500 | GT-i9515 | GT-i9506 LTÉ+ | SGH-I337 | SGH-M919 | SCH-I545 | SPH-L720 ?
I have no idea.
Do you like answering the same question over and over again?
Yes. Who doesn’t?
Why didn’t you release a new Samy Deluxe version for such a long time and now all of a sudden you come back with a bang?
I spent half a year in a cave without LTE connection and had better things to do. I released a new version because I need traffic for my website and I miss answering the same questions over and over again!
Word on the street is you now own an iPhone 6. You are a traitor!
Is that a question or are you trying to destroy my reputation? Besides that: Yes, I do own an iPhone 6 now and I am quite happy. However, I still don’t spend my time hanging out at starbucks and I don’t do hipster things with my hipster phone.
What happened to version Q and version R of your ROM?
These are the things that got lost in the fire. Their names were:
Samy Deluxe ROM Question The Answers
Samy Deluxe ROM Rorschach
Why should we use this ROM and if not, which other ROM do you recommend?
Using Samy Deluxe ROMs will make you sexier. In case you are sexy enough I would urge you not to use this ROM.
Apart from Samy Deluxe ROM, there are a ton of other great releases and I would always recommend using the one that fits your needs best, no matter what the name is.

If you find your work here uncredited, please let me know and I will provide proper credits. I will also immediately remove the ROM if you feel it should not be here.
You are invited to edit, modify and use this ROM in every possible way that suits your needs.
Q: How do I install this?
Download to internal SD card, do not put it on your external SD-card
Reboot into recovery. Please use TWRP
FullWipe or use option to factory reset
Install and reboot
Flash other addons after first boot (very important)
Q: What can I do if there are some errors?
Errors are likely to be there. This is still due to its nature a work in progress. However, before posting, read if the issue hasn't already been mentioned.
If you decide it hasn't, report the error and attach a logcat.
Q: Will you support any other Galaxy S4 versions?
Short answer: No. I don’t have your device and thus will never release anything I didn’t have the chance to ruin it myself….

After you choose "install zip" it is an option twoard the bottom. Uncheck that.
Also don't go back to 4.3?

I don't know about original 4.3 builds, all I can say is that I switched between 4.3 and 4.4 custom ROMs without a problem, but AGAIN: I don't know about official builds/stock odin packages.

Hello there , Did you use @friedrich420 rom as base mate? and why arent you giving him any credit or something. or your part of hes team? hehe and Sound setting is Fcing when i try to change the volume
I did use the SecSettings.apk that was posted here a couple of days ago. I credited the thread starter. If that was taken from somewhere else I am sorry and will credit as stated in my first post.
Volume works fine here and is no issue so I guess you must have dirty flashed or something.

This rom is fantastic. Luv the way u have made it mostly "kitkat"ish.
1, The dark transparent backgrounds work beaurifully and the additional apps from Xposed does wonders.
2,Very stable.
3, Camera works but the default is down at 8mp even with patch. So the best thing to use is Lenovo Super Cam apk.
4, This rom can fool anybody that its kitkat since even the easter egg portrays it.
5, External mem shows as internal. Although most will prefer it, I prefer default since the phone has enough space for apps. So I modified that with a small change in the vold.fstab file. If anyone needs the same, buzz me.
Keep up the great work. Cheers mate. Thanks a lot

I dunno about the photosphere issue since i use Supercam but in order to get rid of the unused sim bars, just use Xposed Framework, Gravitybox module. In that, you will find the option to hide inactive signal bars under status bar tweaks or some similar option. Did the trick for me mate. Cheers:good:

Amazing rom !
We do have to fix 3 things on our own though like internal memory shows as external can be easily fixed by replacing the vold.fstab file in system/etc by another custom vold.fstab file .then camera patch provided in the OP by extracting them and then replacing the ones in system/lib and setting permissions to rw-r-r. And making sure you do a reboot after each change .
A lot of tedious work but yes a very stable rom no issues yet not in wifi not in anything at all

hi every one,
As we already know, the battery signal of statusbar on Sammy KitKat Firmware is not images but coded one.
That is one of Google's operations in Android 4.4, but make difficulties with theming or customising...
please some developer consider to change systemui of our device for custom roms and make it png based battery icons.as you can see here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2628560job has be done for other devices too.
any ideas?what you guys think?
search the moto g theme section i already posted image battery for moto g.

Hello world!
I remember I found a mod for like a year ago that made me able to change the button icons using nothing but Root. And as Xposed Framework doesn't work for Android 5.0 anymore I want to ask you guys to posts the best mods that's not requiring Xposed Framework. Root and flashing in Recovery is fine. But I miss a collection of mods in one thread.
Ok my good people, I bring you a repertoire of roms from my personal collection. First, the S7 International Port for our great T-Mobile Note 4.
Secondly, I am also bringing in an N7 International Port for our beloved device.
Thirdly, I am also bringing in an S8-ish International Port for our beloved device.
Lastly, I am bringing a N4 rom which is uses T-Mobile stock firmware for our beloved Note 4.
First things First, I am in NO WAY RESPONSIBLE if you brick, damage, break or simply blow up your phone! This is a custom ROM and will void your warranty!
TWIZtd Rom S7 v3.3/TWIZtd Rom S8 v2.0/TWIZtd Rom N7 v3.0/ TWIZtd Rom N4 v3.0
You Must be on EPE3/EPG2 baseband, on your N910T/T3YES! It works with either baseband! (Although it has been reported to have been used with up to latest baseband)
Changelog
Look in post # 2
What Works?
Pretty Much everything
What does not work? (Up Until Now)
NO WI-FI CALLING (Only N4 Rom has Wi-Fi Calling)
Fingerprint (Only N4 Rom has Fingerprint Working)
AOD (Sort of)
Minor bugs
Anything else, report here!
Rom Information
These ROMs were my personal ROMs, I just decided to share my work so others can also enjoy the many mods that have been worked into these ROMs. I am not looking for requests so don't make any. Again I am only sharing my work, based on what I like for my ROMs and what I wanted in them. If there is an issue that needs fixing by all means, do report and I will try my best to help on the issue and fix it if possible.
With that being said there are four different roms:
TWIZtd ROM S7
This is the final version of the TWIZtd Rom S7. It is one single rom with everything already included in it.
TWIZtd ROM N7
This is the final version of the TWIZtd Rom N7. It is one single rom with everything already included in it.
TWIZtd ROM N4
This is the final version of the TWIZtd Rom N4. It is one single rom with everything already included in it.
TWIZtd ROM S8
This is the final version of the TWIZtd Rom S8. It is one single rom with everything already included in it.
There are five other very important files that are available for download:
TWIZtd UI N7
This is the modded UI that is to be flashed if you want to have mods in your UI
TWIZtd UI S8
This is the modded UI that is to be flashed if you want to have mods in your UI
TWIZtd ROM Mods
This is the folder that will provide the user with many options to customize their rom even further. Things like kernels, Xposed, different apps that work on the rom etc. There are some Apps that are specific to each rom. Please ensure that you are going to be using the app zip that goes with your rom. This is not a flashable zip. It is a RAR file, that is meant to have its contents extracted to where the user so desires. Clarifying note, many of these mods are not mine, I have just compiled them here and brought them to one place to make the life of you users easier.
Boot Sounds
This is a RAR file that contains some boot sounds that I have compiled and put together in one file. These are not mine, I take no credit for them at all.
Boot Animations
This is a RAR file that contains some boot animations that I have compiled over the past year or so and have put many in flashable format that were not. Most have been put in flashable format by me and I really cannot remember who the original owners of each boot animation is, there are ones that were made by the original owners of the boot animation and I have not changed those at all, they are there with original owner information and all. These are not mine, I take no credit for them at all.
Install Instructions (They are the same for all FOUR roms with minor exceptions to the N7/S8. Read Carefully the following instructions please!!!!)
Important Note Before Installing TWIZtd S7/N7
A clean install is mandatory for these roms. Please do not dirty flash over previous builds. You will not get a fully working rom. There are going to be errors present. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!
1. Copy TWIZtd ROM S7/S8/N7/N4 (Whichever you choose) to your ExtSDCard
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik x3
4. Install TWIZtd Rom from ExtSDCard
5. Reboot and fully set up TWIZtd ROM
6. (N7/S8 ONLY) When done, IF desired reboot recovery again

Q & A
S7 Rom
The colors on my text in settings is white, what do I do?
If it is white it means you set up stock rom, installed 3.1 update and have not opened TWIZtd Control. Open it, go to phone and look for phone settings mods and change colors of the text to your liking.
Does xposed work on this rom?
Yes, I use Wanams build 87.1. This has the regular and alt all in one. It is included in TWIZtd Rom mods zip file
Does this offer wi-fi calling?
NO, this is an international rom.
The brightness slider or brightness itself is not working, what should I do?
Try turning off AOD==Always On Display (either in the quick settings toggles or in settings/display) lock your screen and wake again. All should be fine now. Also try changin from adaptive display to AMOLED Cinema. Reboot if necessary after changes to see if brightness works now.
S8 Rom
The mods for the Launcher in TWIZtd Control are not working, what gives?
That is because you are using a stock S8 launcher which comes with the rom. No mods whatsoever. There is no 6th Gear Swipe or Upday when swiping to the left either. If you want, flash the modded launcher in TWIZtd Rom mods zip file
The UI is getting laggy when there are 4+ notifications being displayed. Is this normal?
Yes, this happens due to the massive modding done to the framework to make it look like Nougat. There is no fix for this. It is what it is, and if you want Nougat framework, then you have to live with that
Does xposed work on this rom?
Yes, I use Wanams build 87.1. This has the regular and alt all in one. It is included in TWIZtd mods zip file
Does this offer wi-fi calling?
NO, this is an international rom.
The brightness slider or brightness itself is not working, what should I do?
Try turning off AOD==Always On Display (either in the quick settings toggles or in settings/display) lock your screen and wake again. All should be fine now. Also try changin from adaptive display to AMOLED Cinema. Reboot if necessary after changes to see if brightness works now.
The flashlight toggle is not working, what should I do?
You should press the small arrow next to the toggle name to expand flashlight toggle options. There increase the intensity of LED and turn the switch on. Now it will work everytime by just pressing the toggle as that whole process is a one time deal
N7 Rom
The mods for the Launcher in TWIZtd Control are not working, what gives?
That is because you are using a stock S8 launcher which comes with the rom. No mods whatsoever. There is no 6th Gear Swipe, Upday or Flipboard Briefing when swiping to the left either. If you want, flash the modded launcher in TWIZtd Rom mods zip file
Does xposed work on this rom?
Yes, I use Wanams build 87.1. This has the regular and alt all in one. It is included in TWIZtd mods zip file
Does this offer wi-fi calling?
NO, this is an international rom.
The brightness slider or brightness itself is not working, what should I do?
Try turning off AOD==Always On Display (either in the quick settings toggles or in settings/display) lock your screen and wake again. All should be fine now. Also try changin from adaptive display to AMOLED Cinema. Reboot if necessary after changes to see if brightness works now.
N4 Rom
The icons in my notification are white and the background as well. So it is white on white, what do I do?
This means you have not gone into TWIZtd Control and looked into Framework Preferences and looked under Notification Preferences. There you can change your colors to what you want.
Does xposed work on this rom?
Yes, I use Wanams build 87.1. This has the regular and alt all in one. It is included in TWIZtd Rom mods zip file
Does this offer wi-fi calling?
Yes, this is a T-Mobile base. It has all T-Mobile stock features like Wi-Fi Calling, Fingerprint for lockscreen, Video Calling and Advanced Messaging.

Good luck on developing new project for our beloved note 4

Your welcome all, just trying to keep our beloved Note 4 alive and kicking.
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
Good to see this on the development section.
A new development for the Note 4.
For me the last full featured Samsung flagship.
Removable battery, ir blaster, memory card slot,
MHL 3.0 to hdmi video output; all of this features lost on the Note 5.
Well, to be fair we loose usb 3.0 from the Note 3.
Stable and smooth ROM. Working perfect with the Gear VR.
By the way the newer black version of the Gear VR fits and works perfect
with the Note 4. Using the provided microusb adapter base connector.
This is my daily driver.
Thanks JavixKGD.
I get an error when trying to install Settings update.

Sorry, noob question. What is the right permission i need to set if I'm doing that way or i should probably wait for the updated zip.
1) screen keeps dimming, have to sleep the screen and wake it up to get the screen bright.
2) random reboots not sure if it's a one off thing.

Hmmmm......ur issues are new to me bud. Every tester had a successful run. The random reboot has only been seen by me, but in my case I know why, bad battery. Now the screen dimming, that is something I have not experienced. Is AOD off as well? There could be an issue in the new Smart Manager. Try the Smart Manager 3 which is in the rom already, and should have installed just not active. Just rename the apks, remove the bak in the end, and add bak to the apks of Smart Manager 4 and restart. Tell me if that works!
