I'm running the stock ng2 rom. Rooted. No mods. Knox stripped. I was using sacs v3. But the bugs annoyed me so I went back to stock and downloaded but never flashed v4. Does v4 have all s5 apps, settings, and toggles in the notification? That rom was pretty snappy and would probably give it a go if it makes my device more s5 looking.:thumbup:

Sacs v4!
Okay Son Rise. You talked this rom up soo much in the sacs v4 thread and this one and I just flashed it and wasted my time... As in, having v4 on my sdcard and not flashing it sooner! This rom is what I been looking for. All s5 themed and the basic mods. So far everything is running smoothly. I notice a settings icon bug but what is that to a stable, smooth rom. Thanks for the recommendation and I also recommend sacs v4 if you want to refresh your old s4 to a s5 and some.

I just flashed hyperdrive from the Verizon s4 section and I had to change the apn to get 4g/3g working but I can get mms but can't send mms, everything work's while running kt kernel but the menu list are Grey on Grey but it's still works and the lock screen options work without any extra work, maybe the creator of this Rom and sacs should link up and share codes.

Hi, what I would do is Odin Shabby's or AGAT's custom recovery found in the Android and Original Development sub-forums. Both are confirmed to work with creating and restoring backups. I've personally used Shabby's customer recovery twice to restore backups after testing CM10.1.
Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions.
Alright cool thanks!, I had the gs2 before this phone so I knew it was somewhat the same but I wanted to double check before killing my phone lol

Go to the Android Development forum and go to Shabbypenguins OUHDS recovery thread, and it provides excellent instructions on installing the recovery.
SLIMBEAN is working great BTW. I have been rocking it since it came out. I was so pumped because I got my S4 the day it came out and before that I was using Slimbean on my S3 so I'm glad the first AOSP rom up and running well enough for a daily driver was Slimbean!
Look out for Garywn's CM, AOKP, and PA roms, those she be up and running soon enough! Actually CM is in beta as well now!

Do it! Takes like two seconds
Yeah AOSP has none of the exclusive TW features, including but not limited to things like smart stay, air gestures, etc.
The camera has the standard AOSP features, still looks just as good, just missing some of the TW stuff!
SLIMBEAN looks so much better visually though then touch wiz haha, worth it.

So I've had this phone for a couple weeks now and i love it but I'm itching to flash a rom on my old school E4G I usually ran versions of stock Android roms but only cause that phone stopped at gingerbread but they are to plain and boring for me i like touch wiz and some of the features this phone has jus wondering what rom would be best to keep some of this but get a faster phone? And before someone says it i read tons of forums but recommendation is jus better to me

force rom is basically stock but with all the bloat removed. blu kuban is similar but with a theme.
I would recommend one of these if you want to remain on touchwiz.
I'm currently on force rom waiting for the new release of blu kuban to drop.:thumbup:
Blu Kuban for TW. Slimbean for AOSP.

the fastest and snapiest one. i am about to install wanam lite
Fast is cm 10.2 but still alpha, i like crash and Arrow rom with perseus kernel.
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Most of the TW base ROMs are about the same. I've used Omega + persues from day one and got great battery life.. (6hrs+ screen time with like 30hrs standbye). Onto CM 10.2 now tho.
Also--- this should be moved to S4 General I believe.....

arrow is aosp themed, is very beautifil, until camera is fixed in cm 10.2 a'm using this.
I think you should try arrow rom or crash rom. They are great, smooth and the battery is great.
But i think wanam 1.8 has the battery best. I can use 2 days with 4 hour on screen. But wanam 1.8 is the old ver.

Bes rom/kernel threads are not allowed here on XDA, as they become grounds for subjective debates on people's opinion.
Thread closed, and moved to Q&A.
Any suggestions to the best combination of rom and kernel?
My signature and default samsung kernel
Nice
I've always wanted to try that one, but im stuck with Foxhound 1.2 because of the theme, i really like the dark theme, makes it look more premium
I'll be waiting for D3NnNy to upload the theme only so that I can try other ROMs.
Latest Echoe rom and Lean Kernel for me
X-Note + Faux for me...
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
X-note!
Ive wanted to try X-note, is there any way to merge x-note rom and foxhound's theme? I dont want the stock theme, foxhound's dark theme really looks good
Do not post questions in this section!
Sorry!

What 4.4 ROMs work with the Domination theme? Hopefully we can get a list together here.
I know Purified and Goldeneye work. I may have used it on stock MK2, I don't remember.
