ColorOS 1.0.0 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500 ​



(Yes, these screenshots are from the HTC One, but it'll be the same on the S4. (I don't have an S4)​


Installation instructions:
-Download the ROM
-Wipe Data and Cache partitions.
-Flash the ROM using ClockworkMod

Optionals (Boot the ROM first before you flash these!):
-Flash Gapps (Use the latest jb 4.2.2 version) - http://goo.im/gapps
-Root it by flashing SuperSU (or whatever your choice of SU manager is) - http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu


Notes:
-I *haven't* tested this because I don't have the device. Beware.
-It is NOT rooted nor does it have Gapps preinstalled.
-There seems to be an issue accessing the external SD, will look into it.
-If you're having issues installing, have a look at this post from the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45888299&postcount=68

I have successfully downloaded and can't wait to try it out later. Going out now so I cannot install until tonight. I'll give my feedback later! :victory:
