I have a bit of a problem doing that because i never backed up my EFS Partition before going to the 4.1.2 EMG4 Modem !

Because im a little bit silly !

Please, post the livewallpaper.apk. May be it's not a big deal for you, but I'm using WP wallpaper to show clock, alarm etc in compact and eye candy way ... and I'm missing that functionality.

It won't work on 4.2.2 v1. I ran that ROM for a long time and tried a number of live wall paper apps, even extracting one from another samsung 4.2.2. It simply crashes. I recommend you switch to the 4.1.2 v2. There isnt much more the 4.2.2 can offer. OR u can just wait for 4.3 should be out this month

Backup your EFS with EFS Pro.
I've tried it and it works without problems.

In case you still have problems, flash one of these base-bands that support the new EFS partition CLICK
I'm using one of them with your Reviva 4.2.2 ROM

Newest Versions

Hi All,

Last minute chances to let me know about any feature requests or bug reports before i start compiling the latest version !

Make the statusbar icons and toggles white, like in the 4.2.2 version.
It looks cleaner,better and more KitKat-ish

 

[Havoc-X]

Or the stock green samsung toggles would be awesome . Doubt we could get 4.2.2 white S-planner on 4.1.2. Can't say that i have any problems with it. The ROM is awesome

I hope the file is less than 500 MB. I like a rom without all bloatwares. All including Samsung's and Google's. RevivaRom is promising, I like it.

AOSP can't be my daily driver since the camera shot is not as good as the stock Samsung cam. So the only option is Samsung rom, but without all the bloatwares. (AOSP-smooth and better camera app ==> best of both worlds)

On average my ROMS are always smaller than 500mb !

Only problem with the upcoming release is I am currently struggling to theme it so that might have to wait for v2 for theming !

You all looking forward ?

Yeah, bring it on! haha

One question though: is this rom using stock Samsung theme or is it themed heavily with that glorious #33b5e5 HOLO Blue? I like a rom that follows the theme of the original rom (which is what the manufacturer want users to use). If I want to see the glorious HOLO blue, I'd flash an AOSP rom.

If it is indeed themed, I hope there's a way to use the stock Samsung theme (even though I personally dislike it, but I had to have it for the sake of UI consistency)

Lol, this time I'm quite impressed with 4.1.2 version 2 ? Have user 4.2.2 so far and it was very responsive, but with no Live Wallpaper. Tried Wanam, but was bit laggy. 4.1.2 v2 is not 100% stable, but what a battery ! Hope not to degraded ! And hope 4,3 will be at least as good. Very nice job ! Your rom is so good, that I'm afraid to try Wanam 4.3.
