This is a black themed rom from Ground Zero Roms for the Samsung S4 Mini EU-LTE version, 3G version and Duo version.

Visit the Ground Zero Roms community at https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/109330559573276360638

~~~~~~~~~~ VALIDUS LP 5.1.1. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ~~~~~~~~~~

1. Make sure you have latest recovery (I recommend CWM 6.0.5.x)

2. Do a complete wipe
That means COMPLETE..
FULL WIPE/Format: /system, /data, /cache and /dalvik
If you choose to dirty flash an update & have issues, don't report them unless you've clean flashed & the issue is still there.

3. Flash rom

4. Let ROM bootup (will take a while).. If it stays at boot animation for too long and not goto optimizing apps then do a battery pull and restart. It should then go on to optimizing after a about a min or so..

5. After phone boots.. Wait a min or two and reboot into recovery and flash gapps.

6. (Optional) Flash Google Apps
(Banks Gapps) http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=banks&device=gapps
(Slims Gapps) http://forum.xda-developers.com/slimroms/general/gapps-official-slim-gapps-trds-slimkat-t2792842

8. Enjoy Validus LP

- If phone gets stuck on animation just do a battery pull and restart.. I did notice that gapps took a little while to optimize and it seemed like it was stuck but wasn't..
- If you choose to use a custom kernel or Xposed framework, don't report bugs. I can only provide support if you're using the stock kernel on a clean flash without Xposed.

Looks good, i reallt like the black theme. The only issue is that the recent app switcher doesnt work properly. In some apps it doesnt start up and sometimes i cant get back out of it.

This rom has the potential to be the best one for the s4 mini!

P.s. volgensmij ben je Nederlands?

This is a themed rom for the Samsung S4 Mini LTE version and the 3G version.

- Install instructions - Use an up to date recovery, backup your current ROM then clean flash (wipe data, cache, dalvik, and system before flashing ROM & gapps) wipe cache & dalvik again after flashing.
- If you choose to dirty flash an update & have issues, don't report them unless you've clean flashed & the issue is still there.

- If you choose to use a custom kernel or Xposed framework, don't report bugs. I can only provide support if you're using the stock kernel on a clean flash without Xposed.

Sorry I can only maintain the LTE and 3g version because they are very similar.

Wipe dalvick, cache and system, flash the rom again. Then wipe dalvick and cache and reboot. There is no need to flash supersu bcoz it's build in the rom. If The rom boot then flash gapps . You can also try flashing with cwm
