My Philosophy
I take my time and build the most stable and reliable ROMs possible.
I do not fill my ROMs with a bunch of crap mods that conflict with the other crap mods.
I will not insult your intelligence with a bunch of fake performance tweaks.
I will not fill the dev section with a bunch of lame copy and paste ROMs.
I will not trademark anything rolleyes.

Additional Info

Reporting Bugs
Please be sure to mention the following:
Which device?
Clean or update install?
How you wiped (factory reset from settings, wiped in recovery, no wipe, etc)?
Which recovery you are using?
Which kernel you are using?

Before posting any bug reports please search the thread and read the changelog.

Please do not PM me with ROM questions or for tech support. Post your question on one of my threads and I do my best to help you.

Custom boot animation support
Flash or push any boot animation (properly sized for our device) in the "bootanimation.zip" format to /system/media.

Dual Settings Menu
There are two Settings icons in the app drawer: one for traditional view, and the other for stock tabbed view. If you want to switch from one to another, simply clear the defaults for Settings in the Application Manager.

Using the Aroma Installer

This is a quick guide to using the Aroma Installer since this highly customized version may be slightly different from what you have used before.

Looks complicated, but is super easy. And I think you will appreciate the ability to customize your set-up without having to re-install the ROM.

Installation:
Nandroid backup
Factory reset in recovery if coming from a non-TouchWiz ROM (backup internal SD Card contents first)
Flash in recovery
Aroma installer should start within ~5 seconds

Choose a theme for Aroma - not the ROM (if the colors look borked, go back and choose the theme again).

After agreeing to the disclaimer and viewing the changelog, Choose either:

Install or Update ROM - Installs ROM
or
Add or Remove Features - Allows you to add or remove apps, launchers, etc without re-installing the ROM.
________________

Install or Update ROM:
Choose either:
Full Wipe - Clean install wipes system, cache, Dalvik, and app & system data (no media, etc).
or
Update Wipe - Wipes system, cache, Dalvik (for current Graviton users only)

Choose desired options.
________________

Add or Remove Features:
Be sure to select everything you want included in the ROM, even if it is already installed on your device.
If any given item is not selected, it will either not be installed, or deleted if it is already installed.
________________

Additional Info
If at any point Aroma hangs, hold the power button until device reboots recovery (10-15 seconds).

If install completes and you get a "Status 0" error after pressing "Reboot" in Aroma, just reboot the device.​

Search before you post, or else...

Hi upndwn4par

Before flashing what seems to be a wonderful work, if I may, would like ask a thing or two as I'm riding an i9505 and never tried an i337 firmware.

a) Wi-Fi Fix: we have DjeMBeY great kindness in providing this fix for every i9505 firmware release. Unfortunately he didn't released any MF3. It may be necessary? There is any recommendations ?

b) I've only found "loki-patch" mentions in AT&T forum. It will be necessary?

Choose loki-patch option in Aroma if NOT using auto-patch recovery

EDIT: ausdim's kernel is known as Wi-Fi-Fix-Free but if I could stick to stock ...


Thanks in advance.

Nice regards.

a) No one has reported the need for a wifi patch (I think all were using ausdim's kernel).

b) You are correct, the loki-patch is an AT&T thing. That is a copy and paste error...sorry. However, once in the Aroma installer it indicates AT&T only. I'll fix that now.

I'll also post a flashable zip of the stock i9505 kernel. But, I can't guarantee you won't need a wifi patch.

 

[Kdio]

Hi upndwn4par

I've thanked in advise in the last post but, anyway, will do it again ... Thanks! :good:

I'll fix that now.

Is it possible to you to post too only the updater-script (if it's the only file updated) ? It would be easier to replace it then to download all again just to get it.

I'll also post a flashable zip of the stock i9505 kernel.

Please, don't do it just for me .. ok ? It's easy to extract/reflash one if needed.

Nice regards.

There are no changes that need to be made to the updater-script. I just needed to change the install instructions on post #2.

I will post a stock kernel zip if anyone needs it. Just let me know.

 

[upndwn4par]

Post #5 updated with info regarding adding any apps I have removed.

Also added instructions for adding a custom notification drawer image.

 

[pROAddicts]

Bookmarked!

I still have to find ways on how to root my S4 I9500... I am from the Philippines...

 

[MJD]

I downloaded the zip and flashed. Aroma installer is saying 'You are about to install Graviton S4 for AT&T SGH-i337'. Is this right?.

Just wondering as this is obviously the i9505 section. I am new to this.

Yes. This ROM was built for the i337, but works fine on your device.

Yes the messaging notification happens with the AOSP lockscreen, and yes Xposed works just fine with this ROM.
