[Q] Imperium ROM SG S4 question, updating! (4.4.2 KK)

Hey!
New to the XDA forum, not new to Android!
I will cut to the chase and explain really fast what I need help with.
I have been using the Imperium ROM 4.4.2 KK for a few weeks now and I love it.
But as of a few days ago, Update 4.0 (up from 3.6) was released, and my phone just won't stop spamming me with "upgrade to the latest version 4.0!" . However, as far as I can tell, I have to re-download the 4.0 ROM and flash my phone entirely over again.
So, TL;DR:
I am using the Galaxy S4 Imperium 4.4.2 ROM 3.6 and I want to;
a)Upgrade to 4.0 without re-flashing my and having to re-install all apps, backup photos etc.
b)Turn off the spam notifications about updating.
Thanks in advance, sincerely

I have the same problem i was using 6.0 and now 7.0 is out can i just perform ota update or do i have to donwload the rom and flash it.....what about my apps installed in 6.0 can i just apply update from sd in recovery...i dont want to reinstall all those apps again.plz help

Guys come on. These are really basic questions.
- If you are not prepared to wipe everything from time to time, then you should stay away from custom roms.
- You can just try it yourself if it works. Make a backup and flash away. If you got problems, fully wipe and restore your backup.

Hi newman2015:
First of all, that can void you warranty since you will root and install a custom recovery on the S5 (Of course it depends on your region).
If you want a more stable and mature ROM, then go for Kitkat, some ROMS out there have great MODs like the Dragon KK CM11 rom.
On the other hand if you want to try something new and new capabilities then go for Lollipop, there are great variants out there and they are getting more stable each day, but expect issues.
I have tried several of them but the best for LP are Bliss, Dragon, CM12 from albino887 (UNNOFICIAL)... For KK i recomend Dragon ROM, Liquid Smooth and Vanir, all of them with great customization, but that's my personal suggestion.
I hope this helped.
Best! :highfive:

Hi newman2015:
Since you have the International variant of S5, you can flash any of those ROMs that I mentioned earlier, if you need further assistance don't hesitate to ask.
Best! :good:

Hi newman2015:
Of course. IF YOU WANT FIND A GUIDE WITH IMAGES, just google it. But the basic steps are as follow.
- Always do a backup!!, since you can lost everything (CONTACTS, FILES, PHOTOS, ETC.)
- Download a stock image in case that anything goes wrong, that way you can boot you S5 once again
- Download ODIN, that way you can boot you S5 once again and just in case
- Download your desired ROM to your PC
- Download GAPPS to your PC (remember to download KK GAPPS)
- First of all follow the guide to root and install a custom recovery (Chainfire CF-Root, don't do anything extra FOLLOW THE GUIDE and you will be safe)
- Once you have root and a custom recovery and you booted into ANDROID OS, transfer the ROM and GAPPS to your phone
- Remember to do a backup!!
- Find your APN settings in your current ROM and take note of then, back up them, etc.
- Turn off your phone and press HOME, POWER and VOLUME UP button to boot into RECOVERY
- Find the option WIPE
- Swipe to do a Factory Reset (you will start clean... )
- Once it finish, select the option BACK (DON'T SELECT FORMAT DATA OR ADVANCED WIPE)
- Select the OPTION INSTALL
- Navigate to the directory where you saved the ROM and GAPPS
- First select THE ROM FILE
- Select the OPTION ADD MORE ZIPs
- Select GAPPS file
- Swipe to begin...
- Wait a little... a little more...
- If you don't receive errors select the OPTION FLASH DALVIK and CACHE (Just to be safer)
- Select the option REBOOT
- Enjoy your new ROM
- Restore your APN settings, contacts, etc.
Hope it helps
Best!
P.D. To be honest I can't remember if the hebrew option is there, but my guess is that it is

[Q] Roms ( New user )

Hello everyone I'm new here I just recently rooted my Galaxy S4 i9500 and I want to put in cool speedy Rom.
I also heared that I can combine it with lolipop or something? I dont realy understand it yet I hope you can explain it to me help me choose what's best for me without bricking my phone....
Also I would like to know what apps I must have after rooting or what apps you recommand for me?
Any help will be aprreciate thanks for all !

Start reading as much as you can on this forum and learn from it.
You won't brick your phone, that's almost impossible. That has never happend when flashing custom roms.
Just flash a custom recovery for the i9500 and start flashing the rom you want to try. Always read the first post of the rom and probably the last few pages of the thread.

First of all thank you for the reply, Finaly!
Someone offered me the omni rom with lolipop.
I mainly looking for speedy tweakinish rom and it seems awsome,
but maybe there more roms even better?
also I saw you need to delete anything from the phone
b4 you put a new rom so my question is how I save the
important apps and data and if i can skip all the crap i used to have??

Question
Hi! I have a Galaxy S4 LTE (I9506) and i'm on stock rom (4.4.2, I9506XXUCNF3). I successfully installed a TWRP recovery via ODIN. Root done and it works. Now i want to flash the PAC lollipop ROM. Do i need something else to do before flashing? Thank you in forward!

Recently updated my old Nexus 10/Manta to OmniROM 6.0.1 and I couldn't be happier. I had a fair bit of messing around on the first try until I got the sequence right...full wipe, flash ROM, flash Gapps pico and everything works REALLY well.
However, installing nightly updates is the same for me as the initial flash...I have to do a full wipe or I get the Google Services loop.
Am i doing something wrong is that how nightlies work currently?
Thanks.

Hi,
i'm rather new with rooting, flashing and all the stuff that comes with it.
Now i have an Oppo Find7 and i managed to install the following:
-TWRP recovery
-OmniRom 5.1 nightly
-Gapps 5.1
I'm pleased everything worked but now i saw OmniRom 6.0, when i tried to flash it with gapps i encountered the first problem:
-The install of OmniRom went well but when i try to install Gapps 6.0 stock, it is saying i dont have enough storage? Can i somehow increase or free up this storage to it can fit?
Second question: If the above is possible, is there a way to flash OmniRom 6.0 and Gapps 6.0 without the loss of data? or do i still have to backup and restore with titanium backup?
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi. Latest omni marshmallow but I have one issue. Battery drain.
It seems as it does not suspend. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction to help squash this pesky bug.
What I can add is that I have a Nexus 5 with same apps and settings without the issue .
Thank you

I just upgraded from ZTE Maven running Android 5.1, to a Galaxy Express 3 running Android 6.0.1. love the phone, but for one thing. I playing a game called Walking War Robots. It played good on the 5.0, but really lags bad on the 6.0.1.. I thought the better phone would be better but it's worse. I've also noticed that the graphics are better for the 6.0.1, including shadows for robots, etc. I believe it adds to the problem. What I'd like to know, is there a way to improve the performance of my phone to get rid of the lag, or is there a way to disable enhanced graphics and make the game think I'm running 5.0 to get rid of the shadows and enhanced graphics. I can do without robot shadows for the sake of smooth gameplay. Any help will be greatly appreciated... YodaXIII

password reset?
I decided to try the official Nougat for my 6P. Before going there, I made a TWRP backup, which I used "adb pull" to get to my computer. After trying Nougat and deciding I didn't like it, I went back to Omnirom from the TWRP backup. At boot it asks for the decryption password, which works fine, and omnirom starts up correctly. It then prompts me for password after restart, and it insists that I enter the wrong one. What options do I have to get past this, other than a clean install and then recover my apps/data from backups?
[edit: solved it] I entered the file manager of TWRP and removed /data/system/locksettings* After this, the next reboot required decryption password, as expected, but did not require a lockscreen password, so all was fine and I could again set a new lockscreen protection.

I have a micromax unite 4 pro (Q465) but on google there is no recovery img for any recovery I request u to help me how can I install a custom recovery to flash a zip filee please help me

You would need it to be ported to that OS, if you really want note 7 apps, download the following
TWRP 2.8.7.0 (Because you'll need to be able access the Aurora installer)
Darklord N7 PORT for N3-N9005/HLTExx (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/darklord-s7-edge-port-6-0-1-mm-t3382954)
You'll also need the Kernel for this ROM (I think)
Which can be found (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...nel-lsskernel-note5ports-soon-6-0-1-t3389886)
Follow all the instructions and you'll have N7
(This is a Suggestion and is for experienced Users)
Backup all data before you install ROM, Run Backup via Custom Recovery - Save to External_SD

There is also Phronesis N7 v6 rom which is based no DL port.
Pair this rom with Phantom kernel and you almost got N7 for free.
