[Q] Imperium ROM SG S4 question, updating! (4.4.2 KK) - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Rooting and Installing Rocket Rom V7

Hello Everyone,
I have few questions which I know might have been answered before (and I appologize for that) but after seeing different responses, I am a bit confused. So here are my questions:
1) I've updated my galaxy note with the official ICS via OTA but after updating it my phone has gone slower and laggy and facing the problem of fast battery draining. So I've decided to install a custom Rom. So please suggest which ROM is best which is stable, fast and have a good battery. I have downloaded Rocket Rom V7. How is it?
2) To Install this ROM I know I have to root my phone but I have read that a lot of ppl bricked their phone. So is it safe to root this phone and if yes what is the best procedure. I have seen posted in other threads that some kernels are not safe. I am posting my Kernel version can u please tell me if it is safe to root and if yes which is the best way.
Android Version: 4.0.3
Kernel Version: 3.0.15-N7000DDLP8-CL551076
Build Number: IML74K.DDLPA
Kindly suggest. Thanks in advance .
Can any one please help....
I suggest you to use LiquidSmooth 2.3. Brilliant rom, the best I have tried on Note. But notice it only got english language.
/CK
Yes! its totally safe when done in the right manner....download stock LP3 rom...GB..from stock roms thread...download pc odin and unlockroot software from unlockroot.com...
Now put your mobile to download mode..vol up then lock then menu...press all 3 until you see a android bot...click continue...
Make sure u hav kies installed in pc...open pc odin software...connect ur phone to the pc..click on PDA in pc odin and direct it to the LP3 rom you downloaded..and click on start...wait till everything is done..your phone restarts in GB mod...enable usb debugging and connect it again..open unlock root software and click root..
You have a perfectly rooted phone and safe too...now just follow the steps of RR...download RR and redpill recovery..go to CWM. .vol down and lock and menu...flash redpill..go to advanced and hit Reboot Recovery. .go to wipe menu and do all 3wipes...flash RR..
ENJOY:cyclops:

Upgraded to Stock Android 5.0 GB ROM...any custom ROM options now?

Hi,
I am using a Galaxy Note 3 UK phone with what appears to be an official stock Android 5.0 Image:
N9005XXUGBNL8 5.0
Containing the following files:
AP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
BL_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
CP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
CSC_OXA_N9005OXAGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
HLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit
So I fired up Odin 3.09, did a Nand wipe and installed the above, then flashed the above again once more time and hey presto got Android 5.0 running very nicely on my phone.
What I want to know is if there is anything good out there from the ROM guys that is worth flashing on top now as the stock image is nice but it's slow and has some annoying things there which I am hoping have been resolved in some custom ROM.
I managed to root the OS and got basic stuff working but miss things like Synapse with the customer Kernel etc.
Thanks in advance,
Fz

[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!

[Q] should i upgrade to lollipop?

Hey there!
i own Note 3 n9005 MJ7 rooted ,stock rom, with TWRP Recovery and my Jellybean 4.3.
i have highly customized my phone to the point its perfect for me, from the apps i need to its design.
my question is, there are some apps id like to buy install like UPSM, and i cant because it wont run on JB.
should i upgrade to LP? will it do something to my apps and designs? my data? my root??
waiting forward for your reply! thanks!!
My advice is stay with what you have. I "upgraded" to the Polish stock rooted Lollipop a couple of weeks ago and have had not end of grief with buggy apps (Titanium Backup & Dropbox) and battery drain. I will probably go back to Kitkat because the SD card permissions policy with Lollipop is making my phone almost unusable. Kitkat 4.4.2 is very good, especially with Xposed.
Get a custom rom
I just ditched the Polish ROM I mentioned above & have flashed Alexandr's Devbase ROM and all the problems I was having with the Polish ROM have melted away. No more annoying SD Card permissions nonsense!
thanks for replying... how would a custom rom help me with my issues?
any other more relevant suggestions maybe?

There's not a major issue with keeping your set up as you like it. LP and/or AOSP/CM ROM's can all be set up how you want, usually quite easily. Even with a clean flash it takes maybe an hour to do.
Not sure what the above issue with TiBu was - works fine for me but I have stopped Restoring Apps DATA and only restore the apps.
Before I change ROMs I make sure...
- full Nandroid of current system is done
- New ROM and SuperSU are on my extSDCard
- TiBu is up to date with backups to extSDCard
- Titanium app is backed up to a zip file on the extSDCard
- Contacts are exported to extSDCard
- Call Logs Backup and Restore is done to extSDCard
- SMS Backup & Restore is done to extSDCard
- Settings are backed up using ROM Settings Backup to extSDCard
- I have copies of my various folders needed over on extSDCard. examples are SPenCommand, Notifications, Ringtones, AutomateIt and Viper4Android
Then I can do whatever I like and Restore things easily to exactly how I like them
As I said, takes about an hour from full wipe (except MicroSD obviously ) to new setup.
I'd wait for 5.1.x... but Lollipop is ok. I just don't think in terms of battery life and smoothness as good as KK yet. 5.1x should improve things.
Custom roms are fine - but many think their custom rom is the best and works great --- yet when you try them, you find bugs. So just be aware that nothing is really flawless - it just depends what you're willing to live with. Be sure to read about each rom and any issues before flashing (and follow instructions carefully).
I will follow Bendigo but adding.
My 2 cents..
Upgrade your mobile to every available option after JB.. taste it..
There is always a way to revert back if you are not happy..
Try/test things, if you came till here to make a new topic

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 .

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
