Porting suggestions - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Backstory:
Hello, I have had this wonderful phone for a year and a couple of months now and it is really good at what it does. Of course, the stock ROM (Touchwiz) is the big major at slowing this phone down. There is a lot of custom ROMs out there (I am personally running cm11) that can boost the phone and kernels to fix battery drain issues, but it still does not have a lot of custom ROMs like other devices, the developers are doing an amazing job at what they do and I have donated to several of them but if you look at a device very close to this phone (note 3) the ROMs available are more. Not stating that the devs are not working, just that a device that works pretty much the same should have the same ROMs.
So if anyone wants me to port a ROM just post it here.
Remember that the specs of the phone I will port it from needs to have the same specs as our device. Note 3 is a good example because both have a snapdragon 800 proccessor!!!
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Any ROM made will be posted here:
Have a nice day!

My personal opinion is that you should compile/build/port roms because you want to, not because you are asked to.
But it's the thought that counts, right?
Also, the note 3 seems to have the snapdragon 800 chip. This means it's closer to the S5 than the S4 (in terms of specs).

Well, the gt-i9506 has the snapdragon 800 and I dont have any fantasy when it comes to making a custom rom. I only used pac man and cyanogenmod roms on this device. But feel free to eat chicken and give me a suggestion about what to make.

I wanna suggest Dirty Unicorn. The second suggest will be Resurrection Remix, but now we have a new thread with this build. And the last, AICP. I think these rooms are well supported by a lot of devs working on it. Just my suggestion.

is it not easier just to compile from it's sources which are available ?

I dont have linux, nor do I have the knowledge. This is a project started by me that I want to port ROMs

A8 MM
I heard Samsung A8 will receive touchwiz marshmallow. Well A8 is running Snapdragon 615, while S4 (GT-I9505) is running Snapdragon 600. Will it be possible to port A8 mm to our S4?

Good question there, I think I might actually be able (if they release it) to port it. I will most likely de-bloat it because who likes bloatware? (You can always download them from play store if you wish, but they won't come as system apps)

Hope that would work. Thanks though... I'll wait 'til sammy releases it, and I'll update you immediately :good:

How difficult would it be to port over a amazon firestick/fire tv rom or equivalent to the gt-i9505?
The reason I ask is I still have an old broken screen 1, with custom rom and various apps to eliminate battery drain, its used as a media streamer plugged into my tv with mhl.
Is this even possible?
Im running this just fine and runs loads better than a firestick, im even using the fire sticks Bluetooth remote.
My only issue with doing it this way is the apps I use (mainly tv apps) dont recognise the remote too well and run in phone mode, rather than fire sticks versions run in full mode (as its designed for tv using remote.)
Anyone know if its not possible to port this sort of thing of any work arounds/fixes to suggest?
Your help is very much appreciated.

I think it can be done using the all mighty android kitchen, the setup is a hassle but once that's done you have all the different things you can do in there (that's what she said). One option is that you can port ROMs, it aint gonna be stable, it probably wont even boot and you probably will have the same error as I got when running the script checker. But then again, could be worse...
Try it if you want, though I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device(s).

[ROM][ICS][alpha1]ICYXMAS p5wifi ICS build for GTab 8.9 GT-7310

**Last update! This thread will (shortly) be locked, and a new one will be posted With Galaxian-Soup ICS Alpha 2
Check back in a few hours!
**Update, this tread will be retired and locked come this Thursday 1/5/2012
Read between the lines, and you will see that a brand new thread in its place will be posted, complete with a yummy new alpha of ICS for our dedicated fans to enjoy... We thank you for your patience, after this alpha goes out we believe tere will be more frequent releases and postings
Stay tuned, but from what I've seen so far we have many surprises in store for our next release, and you, is ICS nirvana just around the corner? Check back on thursday!
Please don't take this to mean we've fixed every outstanding bug, but we have made major core improvements, and fixed some of the big "items"
We are seaking anyone with expeirence working HAL's and drivers.. if you are interested please PM me.
TTFN!!
** Update ** Work around for voice search
It appears that voice search is broken in several AOSP roms, during my research I managed to get voice search working, however its the older version (prior to ICS). So far it seems to work fine!
So until Google fixes (or we do hah) do this to get voice search to work
Download
Voice_Search_2.1.4
Go to the location the this file was downloaded and from a terminal (linux/mac) or the command prompt (windows)
Code:
adb shell
su (if not root)
rm /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk
reboot
Then side load adb Voice_Search_2.1.4
Code:
adb install Voice_Search_2.1.4.apk
After the install click on the microphone icon near search at the top left of the home screen, accept the permissions (you have to do this a few times, 3 by my count), don't panic if it asks a few times, it does stick.
Enjoy!
** Update** Happy New Year XDA and esp our friends with the Galaxy Tab 8.9! is this the year of the droid? We shall see!
Hey everyone I wanted to give everyone an update and general goings on! Im sorry to inform you that there will not be a New Years alpha, but we will have something for you all very soon after.
Here is a taste of what early 2012 will bring to Alpha 2.
1. We have decided to use ASOP source rather than Cyanogen Mod, this is primarily why there hasn't been a new release since xmas. After reviewing some of the initial bugs, and reflecting on what we accomplished in under 4 days, we decided we wanted the focus of this rom to become "best in breed" optimized for the Galaxy Tab 8.9. Meaning we are going to cherry pick the best features of both to create the best possible experience, with the lightest footprint, and most importantly stock ICS launcher! NoWiz, no Trebuchet. So far it has yielded very positive results.
2. Moving to ASOP and stock launcher has fixed one of the big bugs, automatic home screen orientation. I know more than a few of you were hoping this would be resolved fast, well there.. happy now?
3. MTD
4. General cleanup and optimizations have resulted in improved launcher response, it feels more fluid and less laggy...
5. Our repo is nearly finished, we are just ironing out some manifest bugs, when alpha2 arrives, so will our git links!
6. We have chosen a team name! Galaxian-Soup!
Thanks for supporting us, and we look forward to celebrating a "Droid 2012".
In the spirit of openness, if you would like to use our rom in your work please credit us in your OP and release notes. Our git repo should be up soon.
***Update*** Xmas Dinner Edition ***
Updated links to a 1.1 version, I added the livewallpaper.apks and re-zipped, no other changes.
and a newer version of Google Apps, seems to be more stable, but I've only been using it an hour, let us know!
Good Morning and Merry Christmas!
Is there something in your stocking for your GT7310? Well Santa Clause (in the form of _Motely, nycbjr, poisike, termleech (still need a team name!)) is delivering the first public alpha!
This build has been tested on the 7310 (Gtab 8.9 wifi, no 3g), and 7300 with no 3g (3g is being looked at).
Standard YMMV tag: You are flashing this at your own risk, make a nandroid backup first! If this breaks your tab we are NOT responsible.. now go play and have fun!
ICYXMAS-p5wifi-alpha1.1-cwm
icyGapps V2
Alpha V1 - ICYXMAS!
ICS 4.0.3_r1 vanilla
Rooted, deodexed,
Includes motley kernel v2e beta (see his thread for git details)
WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth
Installation:
In CWM recovery, clear your data/factory reset
Clear the dalvik cache (under advanced, or under the wipe menu in overcome cwm)
Flash the provided zip using CWM recovery
Flash gapps from CWM recovery
Bootup and setup your Google account
Install cpu control of choice, and set to interactive governor (this is required!)
​*tested SetCPU, No-frills CPU control, and Antuantu.
Give it a chance, this is a deodexed ROM and will boot slow the first time and when you use apps the first time.
Doesn't work/Limitations:
WiFi-only, but 3G will be looked at for a future version (no ETA at the moment)
Camera doesn't work, don't know when or if it can be fixed.
Some video limitations, youtube HD vids not working. Some stuttering will occur until we get the kinks out.
Charger screen doesn't look correct when you plugin without booting up (charging status)
Voice search doesn't work - May have something to do with this error:
W/PackageManager(257): Failure retrieving resources forcom.google.android.voicesearch: Resource ID #0x0
Probably more that we haven't listed, this is an alpha - please let us know.
Team members:
nycbjr - project manager, dev (first working build), testing/troubleshooting
motley - lead dev, p5 device tree, final build, kernel development
poisike - pioneer testing with other tegra ICS ROMs, testing/troubleshooting
termleech - testing
Credits:
Google - for the releasing the OS
Cyanogen Mod Team - for their awesome git repo and developers. We used the p4 device tree as a starting point.
We would like to offer our p5 device if they are interested.
Samsung for the awesome device and kernel source (for HC 3.1 at least)
digetx - for pointing us in the right direction on the green frame buffer fix!
alterbridge - for his CWM Recovery port for 73xx.
JaeCar99 - for the sweet "Blue Hallway" bootanimation
I'm looking forward to a fully working ICS rom But a good thing takes time. Keep up the good work, guys!
great to see this development start

I would never turn down any help, I'm very new at this (long time sysadmin, but only been a droid head since march hah).
Only caveat is you will need approval from motley before I can release anything to you, for now you can PM me and I will give you my aim/gchat and offline email, but I think we should setup an IRC, or aim/gmail chat to make this go faster.
As this is coming from CM9 sources I need to contact them too, I don't want to flub any licensing issues, etc, and maybe they will want to help, or us to help them!
Awesome! Thanks fellers!
great work

As far as WiFi, the P4 (Galaxy 10.1) uses a broadcom 4329 and we (the P5) uses the newer 4330. This is where the challenge will come it. When I get a better look at the Android code and have a flash up and running, hopefully it will become clear if something needs to be done on the kernel side or the Android side. If we start making good progress, we will need to get a git setup for our P5 stuff so we can share changes and files etc.

I don't know... I just flashed my P7300 with P7500 rom and wifi driver loads just fine. I only edited the build.prop and used a kernel from overcome rom, i didn't touch anything else. Also if you look in \system\etc\wifi you will see that both 7500 and 7510 roms have bcm4330 files there, so it looks to me that the wifi card is the same as our.
I also tried the kernel you sent me with 7500 rom and wifi driver still loads.
this is awesome guys.. after the posts yesterday and staying up till 3:Am , I got the sucker booting.. of course that was it though. Great to see this post today.. Sounds like it's not too far off.. at least for me wifi would be the only thing left that's important since I havent touched the camera app or bluetooth yet.

right, I'm going back over the source, and the board config, some wifi stuff seems commented out. I know I need to get on irc.. but work interjects lol..
for the record on linux to use broadcom it has to extract the firmware for the card, I don't think it has to for droid as in this case the firmware is provided to us. I should probably stop spinning my wheels and go back and read/learn more about how android treats these things.
I am all ears however, anyone with debugging exp can have the rom with permission to use the kernel from motly.
I don't think that the problem is in your build. I have tried 3 different builds and they all have the same error:
Code:
ERROR/WifiStateMachine(168): Failed to load driver!
ERROR/WifiStateMachine(168): DriverFailedState
So it looks to me that the problem is in kernel. Of course i could be wrong.
Also it looks to me that the bcm4330 driver source is posted on github (https://github.com/cyanogen/galaxy-2636/tree/ics/drivers/net/wireless/bcm4330), so i hope _motley finds time to take a look.

Sorry, I misspoke, the 10.1 does indeed use the 4330 like us...been looking at Iconia, Xoom, and ASUS TF1 ROMs too much lately.
Well other than the green screen affect, wifi, camera,bluethooth this thing really runs well.
HC was a pig for memory, as I noted on my Acer when I ran ICS for a bit, memory mamagment is hugely improved over honeycomb, I never had more than 200mb free on a regular basis, with ICS its well over 400mb.
and the thing really cooks along, I snap in and out of screens really fast, and angry birds works! haha
I will spend some time tonight on wifi, and making a new build.
poisike I'll setup irc tonight, I may have to rebuild the macpro, who knew running an os other than apple would cause a problem lol..

The otapackage build does spit out a file called "kernel" would that help you any?
I can drop it in my dropbox
actually there is a boot.img.cm9 in my alpha zip you have, but I can still upload just the file called kernel if yoi think it would help.
also once I have my macpro back in op I'm not against setting up accounts for you and poisike, or setting up our own git repo, would be beneficial to work against the same source once we zero in and attempt to create a working port for everyone.
oh and btw, your OC settings work, running ICS at 1.4ghz
This is great news!! Once the wifi is working, I'll be using this as my daily driver. Will this be a completely AOSP project or still based on TouchWiz. I wish I could have stock e-mail, calendar, etc.
Excellent news! I will be waiting patiently....

That sounds like it is just the zImage binary for their build, I think I remember seeing it there too. It won't do me any good. Sounds good about the repo. I can still browse the repos to look at code as necessary for the time being. Glad to hear that the OC is is still working good.
I just sent poisike a 3G kernel with the touchscreen fix so he can start working on that end.

Any chance of p1000l owners can have the TV mobile apk working? I've been trying to restore it with titanium and I have not been able to restore it.
By the way, anyone having low battery time?

titanium backup not working on the build
The new update seems to eliminate the software keys; is there a way to reenable them?
Don t agree just wipe everything and restore user app with Tb. Works fine however i think it s a bad idea do such about system/data.

If you haven't already done that, update your TB, the last version works on ICS.
I've been really enjoying this build. Thanks alot for the whole team!
UI runs very smooth and basicly no log at all.
Almost everything works better compared to the orginal 2.3.3 stock rom I used before.
Few things I noticed, the battery life seems to be somewhat worse.
Also a question about the multitasking in ICS. I cant find a way to open the thumbnails? Long pressing home doesnt seem to work and since theres no software based keys (which I think is a good thing) I'm not sure what to do.
Tab P1000 and I'm using the latest kerned (30.1) with bt fix and rom.

I've been really enjoying this build. Thanks alot for the whole team!
UI runs very smooth and basicly no log at all.
Almost everything works better compared to the orginal 2.3.3 stock rom I used before.
Few things I noticed, the battery life seems to be somewhat worse.
Also a question about the multitasking in ICS. I cant find a way to open the thumbnails? Long pressing home doesnt seem to work and since theres no software based keys (which I think is a good thing) I'm not sure what to do.
Tab P1000 and I'm using the latest kerned (30.1) with bt fix and rom.

Hi all, this thread is a good idea, it mostly works on the galaxy s 2 cm9 forum but their are still idiots posting in the development area. Codeworx (the developer on s2 cm9 thread) has really bought into it and tells people to post in the discussion thread if they post noob stuff in the dev thread. If the devs here (cdesai, humberOS etc) buy into this discussion thread then maybe more people will use it
Anyways, i tried changing lcd density to 120 to check out more tablet apps on the market but when I do the keyboard zooms and I can only see half of it, so I can't type properly... Any ideas?

I know that I used the honeycomb alpha at 120 and liked it that small. But my question isn't about the best density to have, it's about the keyboard at 120 and if anyone knows how to fix it or has any suggestions.
This is my GalaxyTab. There are many like it but this one is mine.
If, by some kind of freak occurrence I helped you, please hit THANKS!
my keyboard work fine on 120 check the attachment
It would be awsome if there is such way to force apps to start in tablet UI with 160 LCD density coz 120 is very small for 7" displays
CM9 on P1000
Hey guys, I tried to flash the latest ICS build for the P1000, but my tablet wont leave the start up screen...
I downloaded both files, replaced the kernel part of the zip with the one specific for the P1000, wiped cache, davik and reset user settings.
Then I flashed the zip file, but at reboot it won't leave the start up screen.
Any idea on what I may have done wrong?
Thanks!

@hhp_211. Can you marry a Devil kernel with a cwm 6046 to try on the cm11 1/09 ROM? Is it a big project or is it pretty easy?

I hope in the near future to be able to these type of things,,, still learning it.
What issues are you having?
Switching the recovery portion out to be cwm with devil will have no effect on how a kernel portion operates.
They do work independent of each other but have to be installed together on the fascinate ( which is different from most every other phone)

It took me a long time to figure out how the kernel and recovery worked on this device and re-learned it several times til it sunk in but now I get it.
I got all those media errors with twrp/Devil. Maybe the SD card trick you proposed will fix that. Then I got some crashes and no sounds worked so I bailed.
My assumption was that it was twrp and not Devil. The dev in his OP is very particular about using cwm on his ROM. I don't know why they both shouldn't work as long as you have the right ones. Seems that is how it works in other ROMs. Dev called the recovery issue a "debacle" I believe and sounded frustrated. There should be a story here. Why wouldn't twrp flash ROM?
So that's why I'm thinking Devil/twrp is an issue. Have you tried it?

My understanding of the "recovery debacle" is the fact up having to go through the exact process is to get the partitioning set correctly.
Much of the the same reason why on @Unjustified Dev cm11 that you had to switch over to a certain TWRP recovery 1st, because he compiled his cm11 with the TWRP.

I can get that. Are you saying first flash is about correct partitioning and not correct recovery? That's a reoccurring Fassy theme! So once it is flashed and partitioned correctly and then the ROM flashed, shouldn't we then be able to use any recovery, like a 4.4 compatible twrp?

You can expect to to change recovery by flashing boot.img we don't have a recovery partition.
Boot image break down
Boot.img contains
* ramdisk
*zImage/Kernel
* recovery ramdisk
We load recovery from boot due to samsung old partition layout
Kernel is inside boot.img this isn't the issue
The issue is the ramdisk.
Some roms contain their own init.blahblah.rc and without it you will get soft-bricked due to certain things not getting initialized and not everything might work and two your ramdisk also contains your init files flashing an incompatible version will soft brick your device due to some things not correctly getting permission . This is the best I can explain it not really a kernel dev or what not so this is the best info I can provide from knowledge .
Newer phones layout
Recovery Partition is separate meaning you can load any recovery in theory without having to be forced to change the Kernel and all ramdisk files which is not good for this reason I always provided zips for my roms with the option to have twrp or cwm because we can't change recovery separately
Boot partition is separate boot.img and kernel never get touched by recovery which is great because you can have no recovery and it still will boot up.
In theory we can flash just recovery such as that twrp zip but it fails for some odd reason I can't understand . TWRP inject script should allow us to flash recovery ramdisk into boot.img so we can have any recovery we want. I may work on getting it to work but for now my fascinate is soft bricked. Also our boot partition is small twrp isn't always fitting in some roms for this reason I build cwm

the only problem with that kernel is getting twrp also. i think it'd be better to be able to flash the recovery/kernel separately, but like UDev said, the kernel/recovery/ramdisk makes it difficult because we don't have a separate recovery partition. unless we do more partitioning of the system/data/cache/datadata and create a separate recovery, but i don't think we can without some major work.. which sucks. we pretty much need to copy from another phone, if it's been done anyway. i know the Nexus s can flash recoveries separately, but i don't know how their partitions are laid out exactly.

It's only compatible for so long I mentioned why. These boot.img aren't really the the best solution due to changes that make it not compatible please guys go read on what a ramdisk is and what all this stuff is like init and stuff so you can understand why
Part of ramdisk is in system/core/rootdir in source code other parts come from your device tree . It's not like this code stays the same not even in the device tree it needs to be changed to fix things or give permission to new things or initialize things like sensors snd it runs more like wifi , bluetooth , etc. This boot.img was only made to allow you to get on 4.4 since recovery is in boot.img you had no choice due to recovery being incapable of installing new 4.4 since set permission is gone it's set metadata now . Compatibility with this boot.img is broken now and I wouldn't install it.

Actually we have one it's just not used due to how the device is made. I think it's a bootloader limitation based on how it was set up. I always imagined it was possible to load recovery there but I don't think the block is active or something to be used it just exists

I wish there was a way to check to see if it's active without the possibility of bricking the phone. there's gotta be a workaround, but I don't know if that's even possible.

it's not made to be active this phone has a mtd partition I have no idea how it's set up but recovery is dead. Just kernel , cache , system , and datadata partitions are active.

Yep that's how it's read. Stock recover is different we had revovery .bin this was made to allow custom ones to work its how it loads it is different from stock. I think that was developed by kush. Brick your phone hard enough you will see cwm4 you installed on stock

damn. that just goes with what Adam Outler created "the unbrickable mod" for the fassy. I'd love to do that with my phone and then try and flash a nexus s bootloader/kernel/etc and see if something loads. Hell, I'd even like to try it on my other fassy that is bricked/whatever to see if it fixes it. lol. I just don't know how to use a welder at all.

Hey skepticmisfit and others too ,
I've seen you and a couple others prefer the aokp ics ms6 over other newer roms.
What do you feel it's doing that's hands down better?
Also...
What are its quirks?
What do you use your fassy for the most [surfing, gaming, music, mixture, other. ]
Can you list out what bugs you in newer Roms the most
I ask because I've been working hard on some tweaked settings in DU 4.4 that have reality improved the speed and stability for me and they should work for all the 4.4 Roms,,,
And I want to get some initial response to make sure I'm heading on the right path
Hopefully I'll have these tweaks in the next few days.
Whoever is ready or able to test let me know.
————— ————— —————
For me 4.4 has been good overall,,,
The hanging black screen on receiving a phone call has to be issue numero uno! drove me nuts!!!
and very slow at switching tasks ,
and slow looking up anything in the interweb,
Not to mention,, generally within a few hours from a fresh boot will cause a hang/reboot
[ or any semi heavy multi tasking it will happen faster]
So I've put a lot of hours into researching and finding out what certain settings effect and I've compared and made a spreadsheet if settings from ROM's that were popular or considered fast,,, and the results have been extremely positive

oh man.. well... specifically with AOKP, it's really stable and really fast a lot of the time. scrolling and opening apps is way faster than in JB and KK roms. gaming is also a bit better too. benchmarks, though they don't usually matter on phones, actually do better with an ICS rom than in JB.
some quirks with AOKP are that built in Wi-Fi tethering doesn't work and that only like two flashlight apps work (I use tiny flashlight). stock torch is broken.

I have PA Gapps 3-08 running fine on recent Cyanogen Mod 11 port for the T330NU with no issue..
However the PA GAPPs developer (TKruzze) no longer makes GAPPs packages..
If you have the latest PA GAPPs, it should work..

W, hey okay i add mtp to my todo list though i don't own a computer that mtp would actually work on, so it'll be guesswork.
Also now that sound is sorted, i'll take a look at the magnetic cover thingamawhatzit. Though i like to turn my screen
on and off the old fashioned way. :silly:
You folks don't expect too much more, I do have other stuff I have to get to.

Sure, i've never had a magnetic cover, the basic idea is closed screen off, and open screen on right ?
also can you test out bluetoothiness, keyboard, i've never done audio streaming so i don't know much to that end.

Z,
hi, i have no issue but, i also maintain my tab regularly with sdmaid, you may need to clear out battery stats.
Also, are you running the rom with or without the kernel update? Lastly how many background processes do you
have running?

Z,
hi again :silly:
you can run in terminal
ps
also you can also connect via adb and run adb shell, then as root [su] run
powertop
i say to do that one through adb because it doesn't display correctly and is kind of unmanagable in the tab's
terminal window.
Also try modifying you performance settings, on the updated kernel you should be set to ondemand/cfq

Umm, because it's not overclocked.
Also skip the powertop approach, i forgot to config in the kernel, i'll get that in the next build.
I know nothing about overclocking, yet.

Okay thanks looking forward to updates for this rom. Also I was wondering.. For the ROMs for the t530 tabs like the cm12 one they now have. What would need to be done to get it booting... I heard all the ROMs with the same board need is a working kernel.. Idk if that's right but if it is would the kernel for this ROM get the cm 12 ROM booting or does it need a new one?

For the most part that's somewhat true correct, however i haven't bothered because the roms are being packaged with the block setup
as opposed to the tried and true way and i just don't have the patience to unpack that setup and repack it.
To be truthful i think i've gotten addicted to this stuff in a slightly mentally unstable kind of way :silly:
And as such am running multiple projects at once, so if you want to chip in on trying that approach, downoad one of the
sm-t53xx builds, get it unpacked and repacked cm11 style and link me to it, a respectable site, not 4shared or dumbass gator
or any place like that, and i'll see what i can do. my current attempts with bliss keep breaking at camerawrapper issues and gps issues.

Id love to waste time to get it working but I'm no developer by any means... I will do some googling and see if I can... I love to waste time on this stuff so thanks for the info I will message u if I am anywhere near successful... If you have any good links to show how to do it it would be very helpful. Thanks

I have come to the conclusion on which custom Rom is best for the Note 4

Since buying this Sprint Note 4 I have tried 4 different custom ROM. 1 touch-wiz, and 3 AOSP. My opinion Detux Corp Rom v9.0-Zelfania'sLove is the absolute best in terms of looks, stability, customizing and response. This along with BeastMode-r61-UN7 kernel makes it a perfect combination for a phone that is now 6 yrs old.. . I did have a few issue, during the first few installs, as I have not dealt with a Touch-whiz ROM in a few yrs. Every thing about this Rom is superb. With plenty of customizing, and tweaking, you really do not need to add anything else to make this Rom stand out over the others.. One issue I did have was with viper4Android. With the option to install in Aroma, after installing it would not work like it was suppose to. It would never process or change any aspect of audio that I choose.. Once I Re did the Rom again, after trying a few AOSP, I downloaded the Viper4Android APK separate, along with the preinstalled busybox, it works flawless. Also it was very lagging, and would often be impossible to get it to to anything until it finally settled, but was worth the wait.. Right now nothing of note, is wrong not even Bluetooth, which seems to be a big issue on AOSP ROMS. Even with help on how to correct Bluetooth issue, it would still persist and never work correctly..
Just purchased two ZeroLemon batteries for my Note 4. The original works just fine, but wanted to have extra, for when this thing actually dies.. Of course I will swap out batteries at least once a month, and always have one fully charged and ready to replace, when I'm either at work or out and about.. I did purchase a new original Samsung battery, that was still in it's original box off of Ebay. But when it came, and I charged it and installed it in the phone. The phone would immediately shut off or just reboot.. Battery Man date was Mid 2017, but is defective. So went looking at alternatives, and settled on ZeroLemon as they have a good reputation.. Plus both with free shipping was $30 from their site.. Most aftermarket batteries, you can seem to only buy via Amazon or Ebay.. This is the route I did not want to go, so I'm glade I went to ZeroLemon..

I agree, Dtux rom is the best of the best on Sprint Note 4 MM.

I didn't expect this to work with 6.0 mm but OMG! Nugut on MM, no way !!! but it did, WoW.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays Doubledragon5

Check this out
5DQ15 bootloader and Modem running on a Lollipop custom rom, system root and Samsung theming full functioning as it should.
Cons= camera is blurted but I'll see if I can port or modify the files. Perhaps flash the modified r61/r56 Marshmallow kernel. Experimentation and observation.
Check out SuperSu Pro V2.52
I kept having issues with BusyBox. I finally found where it was pre-installed but it took me a while, I will admit. The Busybox by Steritson or what ever, was showing it was installed to the /sbin/. However, I discovered it was in device/ data/local/ and there it was Busybox. The screen shot is from after I manually deleted it with my root file manager . Yea, I took a bit of a risk but it did fit well with me. It just didn't look right.
Next, I unistalled previous bbox applets from within the app. I rebooted and ran the app to see if all was bbox was removed. a. Tgen I denied it root , forced stoped cleared cache, data and unistalled. nd indeed. I now use l Busybox app to Jrummy. Looks good so far but will see. Anyway, system/xbin for syatem root and syatem/sbin or system/bin for syatemless root.

Hello my friend, Its good to hear from you. I'm running the Ultimate Note 5 hybrid rom (MOAR). Hears the link if you interested.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3330135
Which kernel did you use? How is your battery life? I never did like battery life with the marshmallows ROMs
I gave it a shot, but wifi doesn't work... So back to UN7
Yea, I never almost never use Wifi but I couldn't get my hot spot to work. Blurred camera, no Wifi and no hot spot. My Bluetooth works. I have an old back from my previous Note 4, I was wondering if I should flash the modem partitions . Freaking fused 5, binary 4 bit the bog one. Dam!!
Im using the besst mode 2.2 ZL by @freeza. I think I try porting the r56 boot.img to the .zip of the R 2.2 ZL kernel zip. I appreciate any input or suggestions @doubledragon5

I can care less about hotspot. But if we can get Wi-Fi to work that would be fantastic
