What can i do?
I have the I9505 and i replaced the secsettings.apk in the private-app folder. but my S4 freezes when it shows the samsung logo on the reboot. i don't now what to do.
I9505XXUFNB8 with 4.4.2
Try my method: simply don't replace secsettings but put the modded one with a different name (like secsettings2) in system/priv-app and set correct permission. After that delete the original secSettings and rename the modded one with the correct name. Finally reboot and you will have the modded file without bootloop.

It works perfectly with the stock odex Rom KK on my GT-i9505

bala_gamer steps are to follow

Steps:
1. backup older apk and odex file(if odexed)
2. copy the new apk.
3. set permission [rw- r- r]
4. restart

If anybody is interesting in list view as default view without flashing the s5 apk, do the following:
-Using root explorer, search for the folder /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases
-open settings.db with sql editor.
-open system
-add the following string: id = auto, name = settings_listui, value = 1.
-close the editor and reboot. done.
-Now the default settings ui is a list view rather than tabs.

    Hello XDA

    I'm presenting to you the new UI settings of the galaxy s 5.

    How to:

    just paste the apk in the folder : priv-app/system
    6
    For those who have problems with list view of setting try with the Note 3 version of S5 settings:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4bFPA3V4_OoY1JDdGJWYUxLelE/preview?pli=1
    4
    Works as advertized

    Tested it on Stock 4.4.2 I9500

    Steps to follow,
    1. You MUST be rooted, OBVIOUS
    2. go to /system/priv-app with ES Explorer or Root Explorer or Internet Explorer :p
    3. Backup both the SecSettings.apk & SecSettings.odex somewhere safe
    4. Delete the SecSettings.apk & SecSettings.odex in /system/priv-app
    5. Copy the new one SecSettings.apk to /system/priv-app
    6. Set permission as rw-r-r *press and hold on file, select properties in ES Explorer
    7. Restart

    Note: I have two settings now, one the original, two the new one
    Also the Note's SecSettings.apk gives the note specific menu with S-Pen settings option, no crash or anything on both.

    Say thanks if I helped!
