[ROM] RootBox [Unofficial Nightlies]

Feel free to use my repo to build your own roms.

Hi Guys!

Since the jflte family of devices is almost exactly the same I thought I would post my I9505 (jflte) Rom here for you as well!
It has been tested by jfltetmo and jfltecan users and is confirmed working!

To install it, just download the I9505 rom and then flash the appropriate device specific package I created.

1. Download the rom from this thread
2. Download the appropriate device specific package
3. Install CWM or TWRP recovery.
4. Boot into recovery, install ROM, then install the device specific package then install gapps.
5. Wipe Data/Factory Reset if coming from another Rom.
6. Reboot and enjoy!

Your device name might show up as I9505. If you are bothered by it you can edit the file /system/build.prop in the rom .zip package before you flash it.
This does not affect the way the rom functions in any way.

Please let me know if you have successfully installed and running this rom on any of the US variants of the S4. I don't own the device!

I would love to see this ROM for the AT&T Galaxy S4 (I337) if you have time.
Our bootloader has been bypassed via Loki:

It says Bajee in the OP.

I didn't notice any way of adjusting the kernel.
Have I missed something?

I tried installing the ktoonz kernel, but my phone wouldn't boot up.

Did you flash the AOSP version of KT's kernel? Wipe cache, fix permissions, etc.?

Is the DPI supposed to be a 480 for all screens or just some of the screens/apps? Some screens still look tiny to me and I can't select more than 320dpi.

 

[arcticwolf8]

Using this ROM with kt's kernel on the at&t variant and phone calls reboot the phone, anyone else experiencing this?

 

[arcticwolf8]

Found the problem. Do not enable in call volume boost under device options - > sound.

 

[Monsterfox50]

Got the ROM flashed with Kt's aosp kernel. Few questions if anyone can help
How do I get rid of the on screen Nav bar and the circle menu on the lock screen?
And how do I get my signal and WiFi bars to be blue instead of gray?
Thanks for the help

Edit: also having bad connectivity problems. One bar to none where I would normally have 3-4 bars? What would cause this?

Hm. After wiping, flashing RootBox-JB-i9505-victorator-20130528.zip, followed by jflteatt.zip, followed by gapps, my initial Samsung splash now has a "custom" lock icon underneath it, followed by a yellow triangle with exclamation point:

System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone.

In tiny red text in the top right: "SECURE FAIL: KERNEL"

Looks like the kernel wasn't loki-patched for some reason? I thought this would be done for us as part of an i337 ROM distribution. Are we expected to loki-patch RootBox as part of installing it on the phone?

I think I followed the instructions... What am I missing?

The rom isn't loki-patched because it was made for the I9505 variant. You need to flash Kt's kernel (AOSP version) after flashing RootBox.
