CHANGELOG:
- Release: 18 FEB 2014
- Updated to latest Samsung Base
PDA: I9300XXUGNA7
CSC: I9300OJVGNA1
Changelist: 2454463
Build date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 04:49:01
- Updated to latest corresponding stock kernel
- All the mods, tweaks and add-ons from previous versions updated to NA7 Base
- DONT FORGET OUR ECHOE CREATIONS PLAYSTORE APP (UPDATED INSANELY FREQUENTLY!!)



2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Backup!!! (EVERYTHING including your EFS!!!)
2. Use a Custom Recovery.
3. You need to do a clean install!!! Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, Wipe data/factory reset and Wipe System and then Install Zip (from either external or internal SD depending on where you chose to save the Rom)
4. The installation process takes between 3-5 minutes. Let it do its job ;) Also the 1st boot also takes 3-5 minutes. I would also recommend that before the initial setup, you dont do anything to your phone for 5 minutes... Let it settle and then proceed with the initial setup... That's just my usual ritual with any Rom I flash :)
5. Reboot and Enjoy ;)
6. If when you are in recovery it asks you to fix root, choose NO and reboot!!

7. IF FOR SOME REASON YOU LOSE ROOT AFTER FLASHING THIS ROM SIMPLY FLASH: SUPERSU v1.86 and LIFE IS GOOD AGAIN ;)
ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS and TIPS:
if you miss root, then flash THIS ZIP thanks of course to @Chainfire

if you miss sim/signal, then you probably have an old modem, so you need to flash one which is at least MG4 or newer
just remember to make an efs folder backup in order to be able to downgrade your baseband in case you want to go back

if you are facing some camera issues :
thanks to @SkywalkerZ

Camera FC is a known issue if using custom kernels and the solution is
Flash stock kernel>Open Camera>install custom kernel

If you feel like supporting us:


I would be surprised if anyone browsing this thread doesn't realize that:
Flashing this Rom voids your warranty. And as with any custom Rom it comes with the usual dangers/ side effects such as, but not limited to, explosions, wars, spontaneous combustion, your pet forgetting all his/her tricks, retrograde and anterograde amnesia, interpersonal alienation, a number of psychosomatic, neurological, and metaphysical complaints, and in general an overall disturbance in the "order of things". Having said all that, WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE for anything happening to your phone as a result of you flashing this Rom...

1st :D
Going to test it...
Downloading now! :)

EDIT: It's awesome!Very costumisable and there are much options.The only thing I didn't like that Aroma installer isn't included.It's just to make this ROM better(just a suggestion from my side).
Anything else is cool. :cool:
