All.
My appologies if the fix is somewhere through this wonderful maze of knowledge. I have recently updated to a donated version of Liberty 2.0.1. I love this ROM. I have also themed to the amazing Epic Blue theme. Running Launcher Pro Plus with very little other mods or tweaks. My issue is that everytime I apply the theme, my Market app breaks. I can no loner find it in my app drawer and the short cut on home screens is there but doesn't work. Then I try to reinstall it via another theme or by file manager it still will not install. I'm still rather new to ROMs, but have technical knowledge. Any guidance on how to reinstall the market app will be appriciated. Right now the only way to get it back is to really store a backup or wipe everything and really flash which as you all know is time consuming.
If you go to settings > applications > manage applications, is it in the list under all?
Thanks for the reply. No. That's strange right? Its now where. The only thing I can think is its because I have a custom icon for it on the dock using launcher pro plus. But, if that where true them all apps like this would act the same right?
Im pretty sure the marketis not installed on your phone. I have two ways to get it back:
1. Using root explorer, go into one of the themes and copy the market app into /system/app. Then install it
2. Google search 38 themed markets. It should be the first site. Download one, and flash it in CWM.
Hey man, stetsonaw from DF (aka the creator of EpicBlue).
It seems you downloaded my OLD version of the theme, which breaks markets, that WAS in the Liberty Toolbox.
Here's what you do.
-Install Liberty without wiping data (wipe cache and dalvik cache)
-Verify the market is now there
-head over to DF and grab my new and more epic version of the theme (google EpicBlue Liberty, you have the discontinued one, grab the proper one for your X)
-make a backup
-install theme
oh, and take two, call me in the morning
Ok so I recently rooted my phone after a lot of trouble, before rooting I was really excited and impatient thinking of the possibilities I have if I rooted but now after rooting I feel like a fool as now after rooting I don't have any apps that only rooted phones can run except Market Enabler which I don't use that ever often making me feel a little stupid.
So I wanted to start this thread so people can Co tribute things you CAN, SHOULD DO OR INSTALL AFTER ROOTING
So let me start of to say Superuser is a must have app, like literally must have or else your not rooted. Another app is Mobile Odin Pro which causes money but is worth it as it allows you to upgrade new roms as they are released still while maintaining your root and data (after I downgraded the rooted then used mobile odin to upgrade to new room my smemo drawings are no more there, there are still in the folders but its not read by the application, any idea why it happened)
Systemapp cleaner is also a must have as I deleted a lot of stock apps I don't use at all
So you guys leave comments to suggests things that can be done or installed only on rooted phones (lets make an exclusive thing so the non rooted phone owners are jealous )
Composed on my Samsung Galaxy Note using XDA Premium app
The reasons I root after install a new ROM are:
- Use adfree to block online adds (saves 3G data too)
- Remove the camera shut sound (annoying and stupid)
- Be able to backup everything and modify files in /system/app if needed
- Clocksync is another favorite, although time got from cellullar provider should be exact enough.

adfree
those are the 3 main ones i need root for
Just adfree for me...and mobile odin pro for convenience.
- Mobile Odin Pro

I've always rooted my devices because of Titanium Backup Pro that i love to use.
Other apps i use:
- Market enabler (i live in Africa and i use it for get apps that are not available here);
- Mobile Odin Pro (too good for easily flash what you want);
- Set CPU;
- CPU Spy (wonderful, it shows you how your CPU works so you can modify CPU parameter as better for you);
- CWM for nandroid backups.
So that's it?

This goes out to all those who are experiencing the Launcher FC issue with AOKP Milestone 4 / Build 28.
I tried installing AOKP over the Chinese Leak ICS Chainfire Repack. This could be one of the reasons the Stock Launcher FCs
Solution :
IMPORTANT ! : This solution will wipe / reset your phone. So use Titanium Backup to backup your apps and data
First ensure you are currently on a properly rooted ICS ROM (Chinese leak, Chainfire Repack, AOSP v5 or earlier, etc.)
Backup your data using Titanium Backup!
Install AOSP v6 as per the instructions in the OP here (if you don't already have it)
Wipe to Factory Defaults / Reset *Just being cautious, but you could try without this and restart from step 1 if it does not work*
Boot and set up your Google account (if not already done)
Install a launcher of your choice (I use ADW Launcher EX, but others should hopefully work too)
Set the new launcher as the default (select the check box at the bottom of the window that shows up when you press the home button before you click on the new launcher's name). The next time you press the home button, the new launcher should be shown automatically, no selections needed
Reboot to recovery
Flash AOKP as instructed in 2nd post here (Don't wipe !)
Reboot!
In case you want to switch back to the Stock Launcher after flashing AOKP, go to Settings -> Apps -> select the new Launcher -> scroll down and press Clear Defaults
Then press the home button and tick the checkbox at the bottom and select the Stock Launcher.
Hope this helps ! Have fun !
Cheers !

What's not working
- Nothing that I know of, let me know if you find one
Code:
This Rom has been tested by me several times on
my I9295 individually before release.
However I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
YOU choose to make these modifications to your phone.
TIPS
The aim of this ROM is to keep it as close to the stock firmware and light as possible. Because this way the ROM is the most stable you can get, and also you don't have any apps that run in the background that can have an influence on the performance and/or battery life of the ROM.
.
See Post #2 for the Aroma Add-on Package, so that you can choose which Samsung Apps / functions you want back.
You can use this Aroma add-on package at any time (multiple times) after flashing this rom (So you can first use the rom bare-bone and look for yourself which app/feature you want to have back). DO NOT install apps that you do not use to save battery and improve performance
.
The 3 Animation settings have been defaulted in the ROM to 0.5 for much faster animations (and experience). In case you would like to change them you can do so as below:
- Enable the Developer Options (Settings -> About Device -> 8x tap the Build number)
- Go to the Developer Options (Settings -> Developer options)
- Scroll down, and change, Window animation scale, Transition animation scale & Animator duration scale to your preference
.
Restrict performance is enabled by default in power saving mode. For a faster experience & allshare to work disable it by
- Go to Settings-->Power Saving-->Power saving mode -->Turn it on
- Tap on Restrict performance-->turn it off
- Go back to power saving mode-->turn it off
.
All apps available on Google Play Store are NOT included in the ROM (or Aroma add-on package), you can download those by yourself in the Play Store.
.
Do not restore apps from older android version through titanium backup, install the apps from Play Store (so the version of apps installed are compatible with the ROM version of android) and only use Titanium backup to restore the app data.
.
I am not much of a fan of the Xposed Framework plugins and prefer to have these directly in the ROM and in case you think of any features you can send your suggestions with complete details so that I can look into it.

Requirements
1. works with 4.4.2 bootloader / firmware or OB4
2. Flash the OB4 modems (You can also flash OC3 / OD3 modems from my drive along with the respective kernel all available on my drive)
3. CWM 6.0.5.1 and above (previous versions are not compatible with android 5.0.1) - I have tested with Philz recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation
Check your bootloader and modems, you may have to update to the latest one for your device (below XXXXNE5 - KitKat will have issues)
Backup your device, in case you want to revert back.
Delete all folders starting with a period ('.') along with the android folder on your internal sdcard (This is a must if upgrading from a kitkat or non TW ROM, these are files created by android system that can cause issues)
Factory reset (If using PhilZ recovery do not use 'Clean to Install a New ROM) Absolutely required as this is a S6 port
Flash the ROM
Reboot
If coming from any other ROM, select 'Setup as new device' and also unselect backup/restore app data while setting up the ROM. You can use Super Backup from playstore to backup & restore call log, contacts & SMS. Once the ROM is setup you can enable backup/restore.

Rom is uploaded... u can try and give me your feedback
Downloaded OK and flashed successfully according to CWM but only getting a blank screen on boot?? Not sure if it's because I was PacRom prior? I'll try reverting to stock TW via Odin and then reflashing to see what happens....

I have flashed this on my device at least a couple of times and have not encountered any issues.
Is you device I9295? as I am not aware of PacRom for S4 active international and have you flashed firmware for 4.4.2 on your phone before.
Edit: Just flashed once again and it booted without any issues. First boot takes about a minute and a half to two minutes
Yes its I9295. I've had various 4.4.4 firmwares running perfectly for a while. I've not flashed 4.4.2 TW Firmware before, because it wasn't available - but just found that a stock one is now available for the UK, so downloading that - I'll try flashing that through Odin first and then try this again.
Cheers

Great!!!
Yes that would be the issue, this is based on Netherlands 4.4.2 firmware that was released in April and it is working fine without any issues around the globe
Wifi problem
I don't have any problem to install this ROM but Wifi don't work. It will not turn on. Is there any fix for that?
Did you flash the ROM? Wifi is working fine here without any issues... look at the screenshots

What firmware are you on..could be an issue with the modem.. can you flash the netherlands firmware (link below) reboot, flash recovery and then try
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByY8uLVuRKD2NDZYYVBaamlrMkk/edit?usp=docslist_api
Edit: Alternatively if you do not want to flash entire firmware you can flash just the UCNE5 modem. You can get the link for the modem at post #693 at the below link and flashing instructions at post # 696

Hello. Installed over stocky rom. Style looks super (colours, etc), wifi also works. Will report later.
Sent from my GT-I9295 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Hmm, well I finally have it up and running!
Odd though - I flashed the UK 4.4.2 firmware and then this and got the same issue - black screen on bootup. Tried all sorts of things, but nothing worked. I flashed the downloaded NL firmware and then this and bingo - maybe something to do with the LTE modem or phone that's different between NL and UK?? Do they have the same LTE bands - not had a chance to try the download speeds yet.
WiFi seems to work fine. It was doing weird things for a while when charging - every 10 seconds or so it would react as though the cable was unplugged and then plugged back in - with the pop up about waterproof plug etc. That may be related to the non-OEM battery though so I'll wait and see on that.
I'll try it out properly tomorrow and report back.
Thanks again though! Looks promising....

Ok thanks, I will update the info in the OP
Very nice rom but I have problems with root access. (I wiped cache and data before installing the rom) SuperSU is installed right but when I install apps which need root access for example titanium backup and try to launch the app the root access pop-up wont come up and the app freezes.. Everything else works fine!

Hmm.. did you do a factory reset? Su binary is installed and does pop up on root access requests. I have installed the ROM several times and did not have this issue. Can you try with factory reset and opening file explorer and selecting root explorer in settings and see if it pops up.
Wonder if anyone else has this issue

I would recommend that you restart the phone once and check with File Explorer as well. In case the problem persists then you can download SuperSu from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu and flash through CWM.

Tips
Only Themes made for Oreo work. i have attached some Themes to main post so you can have Dark UI.
To enable game launcher go to Settings - Advanced - Games.
Let device sit for a few minutes after first boot so Google play store and play support libraries can update

To add dialer on lock screen in google version go to Lock screen and security - App shortcuts - Left side - Choose Phone
To have icons from Samsung themes on google launcher version go to home settings choose default icons

the dialer is broken in the google version you can make calls but there s no call ui so you can't hang up and can't even answer phone calls because of the same issue, installing google dialer framework doesn't help. every thing is working fine on the samsung version tho other than that contexts fix.

You need to read the info about Google version in my post you just quoted.

I tested it many times and it works fine if you do that step.
