So I got the S4 keyboard working with autocorrect by installing the apk from the international edition after making a change to /system/csc/feature.xml.
One thing I've noticed is that the suggestions that are used for the autocorrect are slow to populate. I can actually type faster than the suggestions so if you hit the space button too quick it will change your word to something you most likely do not want.
I'm hoping that someone might be able to figure out what is causing the lag or if maybe it was something I modified with the ROM that I am running.
Anyways, just flash the zip and go into the predictive text settings to enable autocorrect.

Maybe I'll try this when a mirror is made. Not a fan on that website.
Seems to be too much of a hassle to download from the phone.

I flashed this zip. I now have the option to turn on "Auto Replacement" but even though it is turned on, it doesn't work. Am i missing something? Am i supposed to edit the /system/csc/feature.xml file also? I just assumed that was taken care of in the zip.

Hmm, if that is showing then feature.xml was changed. I may have included in the wrong apk in the zip. Let me test it again...
EDIT: I just flashed the zip again and autocorrect is working for me. I should've mentioned that this is for deodexed ROMs. Are you on an odexed ROM still? If you are, just delete the SamungIME.odex and ResourceManager.odex from /system/app/.

That might be it... i'm still odexed. So i was able to delete SamsungIME.odex, but there is no ResourceManager.odex in my /system/app/ folder. Only a ResourceManager.apk. Is that what you meant?

If there isn't an odex for that then you are OK. Just remove the SamsungIME.odex and reboot.

Yeah, very annoying for sure. I cannot figure out if something is wrong or if it's just poor coding. Maybe I'll throw a post out in the international forum.

Are you a fast typer? The letters show up fast, no lag there. The lag is in the suggestions. For instance, if i type "L-E-T-S" as fast as i normally do and then press space, it changes my word to "LET" (Instead of LET'S) because it hasn't registered my "S" yet. Also, if i type "I-T-S" i would expect it to change to IT'S (with an apostrophe), but it's so slow that by the time i typed ITS, the suggestions only registered the "I" and it changes my word from "ITS" to just "I".
Hope that makes sense

Just found this zip on some other forum and decided to try it out. It came from a SGSIII, so I wasn't sure about it, but I flashed it and lo and behold it worked like a charm! Figured I'd share. It gives you 50 extra GB for 2 years. Not sure what happens after 2 years, but it's still nice to have.
Instructions:
1. Uninstall dropbox if it is installed on your phone.
2. Flash this zip.
3. Reboot, open dropbox, log in.
4. You should get an email soon (got mine in 5 minutes) confirming the extra space.
5. (optional, but recommended) Delete the 2 apks that this zip installs (/system/app/Dropbox.apk and system/app/DropboxOOBE.apk) and reinstall dropbox from the market. The dropbox included in the zip is an older version, so do this if you want the newer version and updates.
Enjoy =)
Edit: I figured this belongs here because it is more of a tip/trick than it is an app, but feel free to move if necessary.
Edit2: Apparently dropbox is removing this extra storage from people's account (mine included.) I have no idea why. Sorry guys, this sucks I've still got my 25 extra that I got from HTC though so I guess that's better than nothing.
Worked like a charm. Thanks for sharing!

Yea i didnt either which is why i was wondering the same thing
apparently Verizon opted out of the 25GB of free storage promotion by dropbox...
Select carriers have opted-out of the promotion on phones otherwise eligible. Unfortunately, AT&T and Verizon are among these carriers not currently participating.

It's there, I don't know why, but it's definitely there.
Get it while you can. The Mods will most likely close this thread when they see it. There was a similar one posted in the SGS3 section and that was shut down. The extra 50 gb is definitely nice considering the one area this device lacks is storage.

yeah i modded the setupwizard in ukb for that (wouldnt shock me if it ended up in other roms at this point)
I can confirm it works in addition to UKB's free 25GB. I now have 75.3GB for 2 years!!!
***Note*** If you use the Play Store's auto app update feature, uncheck the box for Dropbox prior to flashing otherwise you're going to have uncheck the box and reflash again...like me ;p
I'm not sure, but this is the same program (Dropbox Guru) as the UKB bonus. So if you haven't done it yet, you might have to complete all parts of Getting Started (https://www.dropbox.com/gs) in order to receive the bonus. Once you have a green checkmark next to all of them. Upload a file from your phone and the bonus should come right away.
Awesome, thanks!
Not working? I dont see the setup wizard. All i get is are you existing or new.

This is the optical reader app and dependencies. Its not in the Verizon ROM but is in the AT&T ROM. I pulled it from the ATT ROM and made it flashable for all to have!
Only tested on S4 as it came from S4 but I wonder if it will work on Note II or S3?

Yup works on my S4, doesn't show up in the app drawer on the Note 2 on ACE 4.9.0....will try again on the note 2 though.
Getting black screen, then force closed "Unfortunately, Optical Reader has stopped."
Im using TWRP on Eclipse ROM. Was really hoping to get this working, this app looks pretty awesome and I wish Verizon would have left it in the begin with.

Eclipse is still touchwiz, themed and I think app replacements. Everything else (multi-window, tw camera, etc) is working.

Is there anyway to get less Chinese? Or is that just how it is since it's a Chinese ROM? I don't want to sound like a cry baby @Tquetski I'm only jw. I appreciate your work on these ROMs. I think this one has some real potential. Its really cool looking

After stability is worked out I'm going to translate it properly
I want to adjust things a little because I feel that this deserves proper localization
APN settings will always produce a FC but it doesn't matter honestly; 4G still works and sticks through reboots lol; I'm doing a really invasive thing and forcing this firmware to use the S4 APNs, it was not made for the S4 ;x
Alright so 4g does stick on reboots. It took my phone maybe 5 minutes for 4g to show up but once it did I was good.
Kept getting the settings FC when trying to enter GMail Account (backup account) but just kept closing it and finally went away. Tapatalk kept FC though [emoji35] I'm back on my DD as I'm off too work. I'll play with ColorOs when im home later.
PS. I tried flashing supersu to have root and no dice any suggestions

Safestrap compatable?
Will this work with Safestrap on MK2?

Nope. Only TW SafeStrap compatible ROMs for you [emoji17]

Thanks. I think it is great devs put out great ROMs for the end user. I really do think the OP's should be more informative though. At least tell us what will work and what is compatable. This ROM is not the only one with very little information, some of the big names are very vague as well. I am new to the S4 and come here looking for ways to optimize my phone, it would be nice to have reliable information posted in the ROM details how to install.

I understand your frustration. I think the devs who have a rom that works for multiple devices/carriers just forget about the few phones/carriers that do have limitations like that.
Check this thread out. Lot of good information to get you going

Sure let me go back and edit 30 threads with a device specific FAQ to cover the general issues which will take a while for me to garner because I only own 1/30
Meanwhile if someone wants to adb their stock firmware for me I could maybe make some stuff you could use with safestrap, but when I make this offer it never pans out because very rarely does someone want to actually get their hands dirty
I can install this rom based kitkat, I had safetrap?

No....it says it 6 posts above you.
I'm loving this phone, I came from a Galaxy S4 and it was definitely worth the upgrade, but the "S Finder" and "Quick connect" buttons in the notification drawer are bugging me since I have no intention of ever using either app. I looked through the settings and I didn't notice anything to disable this unlike how you can turn off the recommended apps (earphones). I already tried to see if you could turn the apps off in the application manager but it's not an option. Anyone figure out if this is possible?
They're bugging me, too.
+1 seriously wtf.

i'm hoping there's a custom ROM before my return window closes...this could be an amazing phone but TW is so inconsistent.
i just came from a Note3 with an AOSP ROM and it's been a rough transition for me.
***i know: it's SO HARD going from one 6-month-old flagship to another just because i have too much unsupervised free time...right?
lol i totally was about to ask about this.
Now that I think about it, WTF is S Finder anyway?

S Finder is a search app, by typing a few letters of anything, it will search almost anything on the phone apps, messages, contacts, email, notes etc.

Ya know I was kind of curious so I just looked it up and I think your right. I think that those buttons where removed in the at&t, sprint and verizon versions. (along with the download booster). They are in the international and the T-mobile versions though. I think that T-mobile is the only carrier which released the S5 with very little personal modifications of there own and therefor is almost identical to the international version (which is the one released direct from Samsung). That is probably also the reason why the international roms work on our phone. I think that all they did was just install there apps. Cool! T-mobile is getting better and better all the time.
Some reason I can't quote you on this app now, but anyways; I haven't gotten my hands on a AT&T version to verify it, but my buddy has a AT&T one so I called and asked if he had it and he said no, so it's hear say I guess lol
But that would be good if we could flash international on it

This is annoying me as well. I think those not yet able to craft their own ROMs (like me), are gonna need to wait. If you're feeling adventurous, you maybe try installing [ROM][G900F][4.4.2]-AllianceROM-OTA Nightlies (the F and T models are similar I believe) and providing the developers with feedback.
Edit: There's also the possibility that [APPS][4.1+] Google Experience Launcher (GEL App + Google Search App) will work, as described by the article How to get the Google Experience Launcher on the Galaxy S5 which I found via this post (go thank him if it works).

I already use GEL, it's in the notification panel though, not the launcher. I'm thinking maybe there will be an Xposed module for it eventually, maybe Wanam can add it.
No guarantees.

Remount /system rw.
Delete existing SystemUI.apk and odex file in /system/priv-app/
Copy this version in. Ensure permissions are correct.
Reboot and enjoy.
Someone else less lazy can make it a flashable zip if they want.

It did get rid of the SFind and Quick Connect buttons on my drop down notifications
I do have a circle icon with the S inside upper left. I have the Alliance Rom onboard, FYI.

The brightness control is a separate setting. This doesn't affect that, I just have mine turned off.
