CM-11.0 Install Guide

Note: CM for Galaxy S4 Mini is provided with no warranty. You are installing this software at your own risk. You may be violating your warranty.

Download CM-11.0 and gapps-jb zips and put in /sdcard

  • UPGRADE REQUIRED
    • gapps version 20140606
      MD5SUM: d840e20fba6f0e2b85d1aebe493a88fa

      Please verify the md5sum to be sure you got the right one.
Before you install CM-11.0: Preparation (First three are optional. If you want to start fresh, these can be skipped)

  1. Install AppBak from Market, run it and save a list of all your apps.
  2. Install SMS Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your SMS history.
  3. Install Call Logs Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your call log history.
  4. Boot into ClockworkMod recovery. Make a full backup. You will need this backup later if you decide to go back to your previous ROM and data.
WARNING: Many apps will Force Close crash if you restore data from a previous ROM.

Install

  1. Use ClockworkMod Recovery.
    • Warning: Only use this recovery to flash CM-11.0. Otherwise, you risk bricking your phone!2
  2. Wipe data and cache.
  3. Flash cm-11*.zip.
  4. Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM11.0 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
  5. Reboot phone.
  6. After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
  7. Warning: Do not restore backup data of system apps!
    • If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
    • It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.
Upgrades
Upgrades from previous versions of CM11.0 are the same process as install, except you do not need to wipe anything. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to even wipe cache and dalvik-cache when upgrading between CM11.0 versions. You only need to wipe if you are doing a major upgrade, switching to a different ROM entirely, or attempting to fix bugs caused by bad backups or corrupt app data.

Can't wait to try it. The new cwm link is still down though.
I don't even know what's new or improved about kitkat. Just a sucker for version numbers.

Kit kat is working, yay!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

For the first nightly it's actually super stable, haven't had a single reboot since last night when i installed it.

Only thing missing is the trebuchet options, like removing the search bar, and choosing which screen is your default home screen, but im sure thats all pretty much in development.

Performance is also excellent, 20900 antutu. Feels as buttery smooth as ever.

Actually, if you press menu button and select settings, you can change this there.
I have pretty much scrutinized all the settings, i don't see it.

When u press menu and settings in the home screen the menu below appears, cant remove the search bar there, nor choose which tile is your default home screen.

@arco68

I have just reflashed the rom and gapps, "launcher3" doesn't appear to be on the gti9190s cm11. In the App manager under all apps tab there is only "launcher", can anybody else with 9190 confirm this?

So i managed to get the launcher going with some help :)

Found a minor bug, if you remove an app from your home screen, the search bar turns into the word "remove" in red where you can drop the app, but if you disable the search bar, then that word in red is also removed, and you cannot get apps of your homescreen until you have re_enabled the searchbar

First impressions on 4.4.1

It's marvellous so far. Less random reboots and improved battery life. Minor bugs such as camera freezes. But not so important and will definitely be handled by this awesome team (@arco68 & the company).

today swithed cm11. smooth, especially after switching art. but cm is not what it had been 1,5 years ago. a lot of own approaches and some unnecessary apps one should get rid off.

would very appreciate if someone would provide slimkat nightlies... black apps, slim, additional settings as touch a sensistivity are great features normal cm is missing.

nevertheless most is working fine, just some issues with flash and torch at this development stage. all else seems to be quite good. - thanks for sharing!

{[REQUEST] Interface options

Hi guys,

can i first say, great work. And if i knew how to do this myself i would.

Just wondering if you could put in an option to hide the clock in the top right corner... like the option in the interface to hide the battery icon.

Also need an option in the camera to use external SD card for main storage. Have tried 3 other camera apps from the play store but none have this option either.

Keep up the fantastic work.:good:
