[ROM] ChaosROM-3.0.1-NCx-4.4.2-SS&MDK-NOTE4,S5,ANDROIDL,XPERIA,N6+SICK-STYLISH-FASTER

UE3WNxE.png

FOR VERIZON SAFESTRAP NCx AND MDK NCx SYSTEMS
So this whole ROM making hobby of mines killing my relationship with my girl. She loved it at first when I'd get donations from those that were happy to have options but I've litterally gotten $5 in last two months so this might be my final CHAOS release. I put weeks and a lot of all nighters into this port. Added literally hundreds of new things to the ROM. theres now over 100 possible tweaks to choose from, new theme modifications thanks to myself and my buddy reggies cheek's work. Now you can pick your theme then pick a main background color and a layover or secondary background or dialog box color too. it makes for some pretty sick theme mods(see screenshots). still in early stages if anyone is an expert with the .pngs and can cleanup or fix anything they see wrong please post. Theres also AndroidL themed everything from MMS, Dialer, Calendar, KB, Icons, File Explorer,wallpapers etc so we can theme our phones all in material design. Or in the spirit of Xperia Z3, S5, Aosp light or dark, etc. Sound packs and system fonts from MIUI,AOSP,AndroidL,S5, HTC Sense and HoneyComb. All parts of the phone can be individually themed too. This is 1 sick ROM. I did have some issues theming our SecMMs properly so for now I'm including Smitten MMS which features sliding UI and will be the new standard very soon. Its far and above better anyway and can be themed on the fly to by android L or whatever UI your feeling. I also recommend choosing Stock options right now as I havent been able to test everything or all diffferent options for the Phone and a few might result in more than the usual 2 FCs that pop up for the phone every boot (cant for the life of me figure out whats making that happen) after the 2 FCs she purrs and they don't affect anything from what I can tell. if someone can fix plz let me know. my times limited now and I cant justify more releases without paypal support as I can't even pay for the phone line right now and thats my internet :/ anyway here it is: (Xperia Theme, Blue Background, Gray Secondary Background,Dark Stock all for choices) Screenshot Gallery for 1 of a 1000 possiblities

Install Via Safestrap, Modules for NC2/NC5 are burnt in no need to flash. It also has my SuperROOT script so no need to flash supersu just restart from the installer when done. If your using TWRP or another custom recovery you'll need to flash a custom kernel to get wifi / data.

Old Versions:
This in my humble opinion was one of the greatest ROM's to ever come out for our S4. I was given permission to port this bad boy months ago and had many many versions but none of which I had completely finished the port before the Chaos was already 2 versions ahead of me (maybe I take on too many projects lol). I finally sat down and pounded this out about a week ago. This is the most complete port I've done yet and uses the original Aroma installation. Somethings like apps were removed and space was a concern but I think you'll find this ROM hands down better than the rest available for Verizon S4s. Its been developed on NC2 with Safestrap (if you need help upgrading follow the original upgrade process thread and use my upgrade files) but it should be compatible with all versions of our phone as long as your firmware is at 4.4.2. Some theme combonations may still result in a bootloop and installs should always be Full Wipes for best compatibility. For further development of this great ROM and others please thank this post, donate to me or thank the original developer Chaos. Please post any issues with the Verizon version here in our thread. Be sure to post your system specs along with a log for me to analyze and fix easier.

Of all the benchmarks and testing and development I've done with 4.4.2 on Verizon I found this to be by far the fastest, smoothest and sharpest looking ROM available. Please post your own results and experiences if they differ ;)

Download:
vzw_NE2_ChaosROM_v2.6.0-v7.zip

Install:

1. Make sure your phone is on a rooted NC2 or NC5 system with Safestrap 3.72. Or on MDK with a custom kernel installed. Follow my method and my original and files for obtaining root with safestrap for best results and compatibility with all my ROMs.
2. Run the .zip from your custom recovery or Safestrap 3.72 and follow installation questions for themes and app choices. If you reboot and get stuck in a bootloop repeat the process only change your theme options around.
3. Enjoy the ROM!!! Remember if you like it show the developers how much you appreciate it and donate or thank us ;P

+1; I've been going back and forth between HD 16.1 (great performance; battery life so-so) and Echoe V25.1 (great battery life but No GPS).
Going to give Chaos a try......

Edit: Flashed Chaos; S5 Theme. Rom is running as expected for 4.4.2 Builds. The only glitch so far is the inability for GPS to lock on / work. I had the same problem with Echoe's V25.1 Build. I tried numerous attempts on Echoe wiith no success. HD RLS16.1 on the otherhand is flawless with GPS. Unfortunately I need this function to work if I'm going to use Chaos as my DD. Baffled...........

    Old Versions:
    This in my humble opinion was one of the greatest ROM's to ever come out for our S4. I was given permission to port this bad boy months ago and had many many versions but none of which I had completely finished the port before the Chaos was already 2 versions ahead of me (maybe I take on too many projects lol). I finally sat down and pounded this out about a week ago. This is the most complete port I've done yet and uses the original Aroma installation. Somethings like apps were removed and space was a concern but I think you'll find this ROM hands down better than the rest available for Verizon S4s. Its been developed on NC2 with Safestrap (if you need help upgrading follow the original upgrade process thread and use my upgrade files) but it should be compatible with all versions of our phone as long as your firmware is at 4.4.2. Some theme combonations may still result in a bootloop and installs should always be Full Wipes for best compatibility. For further development of this great ROM and others please thank this post, donate to me or thank the original developer Chaos. Please post any issues with the Verizon version here in our thread. Be sure to post your system specs along with a log for me to analyze and fix easier.

    Of all the benchmarks and testing and development I've done with 4.4.2 on Verizon I found this to be by far the fastest, smoothest and sharpest looking ROM available. Please post your own results and experiences if they differ ;)

    1. Make sure your phone is on a rooted NC2 or NC5 system with Safestrap 3.72. Or on MDK with a custom kernel installed. Follow my method and my original and files for obtaining root with safestrap for best results and compatibility with all my ROMs.
    2. Run the .zip from your custom recovery or Safestrap 3.72 and follow installation questions for themes and app choices. If you reboot and get stuck in a bootloop repeat the process only change your theme options around.
    3. Enjoy the ROM!!! Remember if you like it show the developers how much you appreciate it and donate or thank us ;P

    About


    I am proud to represnt KitKat ChaosROM to you guys, The ROM is intended to be my daily driver so smoothness and battery life is my aim, i just hate Samsung UI so Four themes are included in AROMA for now plus S5 theme and the Stock theme for who ever like it, hope to find your satisfactions

    You don't have to flash any bootloader and no bootloader will be flashed with the ROM !!
    I do recomend using MJ8 modem for old bootloader and NB8 modem for new bootloader.

    I have been trying to install this rom too and I keep getting stuck on the boot animation too...I've been using the new version of SS and I have got three other Roms to work on rom slot one but I can't get this one running...

    its in beta, use 2.6 v7 for now. an updated 3.0 will be coming shortly....... thanks

    in other news managed to take care of all the FC issues with 3.0 but still having a problem getting out SMS messages using the the original SecMMS. and I am now addressing NG6 issues as well as the new version 3.01 thanks for your patience

    Dude, seriously, why in the hell would you have REBOOT NOW automatically selected in aroma when you know damn well you have to go back into safestrap to install modules etc?! This has f#$cked my up so many times! Total bull****!

    pay attention???? its not hard to unclick a box and a lot of users are able to restart from there. theres many ways to navigate an install like this and if you did it once which I have done many times its not hard to click on the safestrap side boot option or to towelroot and reinstall safestrap from the rom then reboot and addon anything you forgot the 1st time. its pathetic you'd complain about something so petty and if your not a donator I really dont care what you have to say. I put in hours/days/weeks into bringing a port of this to Verizon that works fairly well glad to hear your only issue is a non-existing one.... i'll make sure the next time you install the ROM that its all you have to do is install it thats what I was aiming for with the last release....regardless youve wasted mine and everyone elses time by posting this and I'd appreciate it if you kept preferential criticism out of the thread unless you've donated to the development of the ROM.
