QUOTE(ahodil @ Dec 9 2013, 09:19 AM) Hmmmn, it seems like newer base trips KNOX by simply rooting Yeah. I used CF-Auto-Root. mudkipryan94 please put this on the front page aye ? Maybe coz i froze KNOX using TiBu? QUOTE(ashwin988 @ Dec 9 2013, 10:54 AM) Well don't worry that much. It should not be a big deal and custom roms really play a huge part in this phones battery life and usability. I would say its more of a gain then a loss Haha. Yeah. I know.You are also using the I9505, you have so many awesome roms compared to my sad i9500, if you didnt root, you are not using that phone to its full potential.. you have offical cm 11 as well B4 this, with my S3 and Asus TF201, i rooted them just 1 month after buying. I used to always flash ROMs, Kernels, etc. For this S4, i managed to hold back for almost 3 months. Now no more time to flash those stuffs, too busy. Oh well. I'll just flash custom recovery then. Which do u recommend? TWRP or CWM? |

QUOTE(ahodil @ Dec 9 2013, 04:05 PM) Yessir, but why dont you just go to AOSP roms ? If you want it to be smooth and consume less RAM. But unused RAM is useless Haha. True that!AOSP eh? Hurm. What do u recommend? 1. Official 4.4 - S4 Google Edition - v6.0-OTA - Feel the Experience of Nexus ? 2. Paranoid Android 3.99-RC2 ? 3. Slim Bean jfltexx ? |

QUOTE(ahodil @ Dec 9 2013, 04:24 PM) GPE - almost as stock as AOSP. Yeah. GE looks ok. No real bugs, except for the reported "random reboots".PA - there are tons of feauture, read them up. SlimBean - idk lol, havent use it before. I suggest go for GPE first I'll give it a try, when i'm free. Edit: Should i just flash like normal? I've KNOX tripped, and on XXUEMJ5.

QUOTE(ahodil @ Dec 9 2013, 04:30 PM) Random reboots are a pain in the ass. Find something that doesnt have that. How bout PA? Now that i read the comments, many complained about reboots. Mostly when u off wifi, the reboots frequently happened. Haha. And just flash it through any of your chosen recovery PA, a lot of bugs. Bluetooth, compass, mobile network, network operator name, and camera HDR. |

QUOTE(syin16 @ Dec 9 2013, 07:33 PM) +1 Same dude!The coating really good. Really reduce the smudges compared to regular screen protector. The glass feel is just excellent, don't think i can come back to normal screen protector after using the tempered glass. Just hope i can use it for a long time cause the price The quality is so good! And the best part is, i'll never have to worry about scratches. Multiple times i put my key with my phone in my pocket yet no scratches at all. QUOTE(chaics85 @ Dec 9 2013, 07:37 PM) is there any cheaper alternatives? and according to iphone users in i thread, none suggested SGP tempered glass cos overrated, quality not good & expensives.. Got a few, but i cant remember. True, it's quite expensive. I was quite hesitant to buy at 1st, but now i've no regrets. |

QUOTE(asdasd @ Dec 9 2013, 10:06 PM) why dont you try something less heavy first, maybe those roms that have slim versions available. there are quite a few such as echoe slim or goldeneye or even GE 4.3. better to avoid buggy roms based on kitkat 4.4 if you need your phone stable all the time. Woooo. How come i didn't find that thread! THANKS!i've used GE 4.3 since october, very stable and smooth but the camera is lacking quite a few features compared to samsung stock camera. now I'm testing goldeneye v14 without any samsung bloatware, not bad.. here is a link to a list of roms for I9505. custom roms Define 'heavy'? I've read Goldeneye and Echoe ROMs, are they good? |

QUOTE(asdasd @ Dec 9 2013, 10:26 PM) since u need a fast and stable rom why not try GE 4.3? not the latest or greatest but the download size is very small around 400MB, even 300MB if you look around closely (v1.5 CoOoL_BoY). just remember you wont get any samsung features such as air gesture etc... Hurm. I always use that. How about GOLDENEYE? |

QUOTE(asdasd @ Dec 9 2013, 11:06 PM) goldeneye is based on TW minus the bloat. personally I like it coz the relatively small DL size compared to other TW-based roms. also its quite stable, haven't had a single random reboot nor FC since flashing v14 two weeks ago. have not tried version 15 yet tho.. Then it's good enough for me. I was about to flash PhoeniX ROM v6.2, but since it's 'heavy' (which is true, 2GB!), then i'll go for goldeneye. |

Just installed Phoenix ROM.
Loving it! Though it uses a lil bit more RAM (before flashing 700mb free, after 400mb), it's quite snappy. The "transition animation" bug of course fixed since it uses newer build. Other than that, nothing much. |
