S4 ROMs. Where are they? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

The ROM thread was last updated in October. I can't seem to find all the ROMs based on the lastest OTA update. I'm assuming there are a bunch of ROMs based on that. Is development dead for this phone or are they just on another site?

Nitro has a progress build for mj7 on his eclipse website. When it is ready he'll post it here. Sbreen94 is also working on a 4.3 build but it isn't up yet. That is all the action I'm aware of @ the moment.
I don't believe development is dead for this phone. Check the threads in Android and original development. Lots of choices.

They're coming like Captain said. Development isn't dead for the Verizon s4, but it's almost there. So sad for such a new phone to have so little development than to our wonderful bootloader. I'm sure there will be a few 4.3 tw Roms soon

Wow.thanks guys. Awful development for the best phone on the market .

Yeah. Unfortunately that's what has become of this phone. I ditched my htc rezound ( a very short lived development life as well) for the s4 and have even less rom options with a huge flagship device. I am glad to have the few great options we do have though

Sorry if I missed it but what firmware is your device? MDK hopefully? Or ME7 or newer? Nitro has a solid and stable 4.3 Eclipse Now. It is already stable and he is packing in the goodies now.

Here is the 4.3 I am running and loving it. Nitro is a beast.

Don't see why not if the rom supports multi carrier. I could be wrong though. Never really ventured out that far. If hyperdrive didn't exist I'd probably be desperate enough to start looking into that

I'm unlocked running the ECLIPSE 4.3 AOSP with a bunch of KitKat apk upgrades. But i really miss a few of the TW features like the camera app and wave to answer and scroll webpages. I'll look into that ROM. thanks.

Not yet. The only ones I've heard of are for the International version of the Note. Samsung has just announced that JB/TW will be coming for the Note in Q2 of 2013. Stay tuned.
There are plenty of jb based custom roms here, just browse through the development section. Go ahead and get your jelly bean on.

Honestly it's not a big deal. These forums will soon be merged and we can use the ROMS on the international side anyway.

Honestly, Just pick one. The major releases are all good.
Stock rooted is good enough for me as I said earlier.
This sucks, same thing happened with the One X, I'm going back to rooted stock and boycotting his Clean Rom.... lol
I bought the HTC One yesterday and was excited that Scott was doing dev for this phone, then I unlock/root my phone this morning and see his post... WTF??
Using the stock updated Dev version, works great so no complaints but was still disappointed.
I hope they merge these soon, there is really no point for them being separated (m7/AT&T)

I'm beginning to think the same thing. I guess I'll just go back to Stock rooted myself and see when we get S-Off so I can see about converting mine to a Pseudo-Dev edition.
At least I can have CM on my N4........

no to be a @SS but why buy a phone with sense to only want to run vanilla android? its fast as hell with stock. and everything works great. but then again your vanilla android htc one will be coming very soon along with S-off
I understand his reason for leaving. Currently on TrickDroid 5.6.0 and I like it, best battery I've ever had on a rom. Performance is great too.

Honestly, I prefer Sense on my One. But I liked Scott's Clean version of Sense because he tweaked it so that it would perform better with less bloat. And S-off never was a deal breaker for me, it just would be something fun to have.
whatever

Build quality would be the first thing that comes to mind for the htc one. Some people just want the quality of build but don't necessarily care for themed android

[Q] [Request] Android 4.2.2 ROM port over?

Would anyone else love to see the 4.2.2 ROM ported from the Google Edition One to the DNA? I have been trying to get some sweet stock Android on my DNA for a long time and it doesn't appear there are any ROMs on here or anywhere else that would accomplish that. Is it possible?

Right, but isn't that still just a developmental progress? I would love CM as well but I don't think they have a stable release yet.

CM vs. Stock Android = two completely different roms. I want to use the CM 10.1 roms, but they don't have working BT audio yet. Maybe this phone's rom will help them get it working? The GPE rom will get tweaked and modded by the htc one community and hopefully those will be easily ported to the dna. Sense is cool and all, but I would like to free up some space on my stupid 16gb of non-expandable storage more than anything. Heck it might even get better battery life without all that htc stuff running in the background? Keeping my fingers crossed. :good:
There are plenty of stock roms. Not necessarily pure aosp, but there's cm amongst many other roms. And they are all about 99% working.

[Poll] What ROM is everyone currently using as their Daily Driver? 8/11/13

[Q] What ROM do you guys use as your Daily Driver?
Give your reasons.
List length of time on current ROM.
Provide the hyperlink to the explanation/download page of the listed ROM.
As of 8/11/13:
​This POLL is created from theidoctor's list here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297370
It may not not include all options out there for our Verizon S4's but it should include the most used and most stable. If your ROM that you use as your Daily Driver isn't listed make a comment and explain why you use it.
This POLL is not to show "Best ROM" it is solely for the purpose of showing "Most Used". This helps show newbies what ROMs are popular and what they should start with. It says to newbies that this or that ROM has been "tried and true" by the masses and should hold up for my demands...
Please Vote and then add your Reply to the Thread also.
Just curious if there is already a poll and thread on this why make another one?

We were missing a couple choices that were obviously wanted and used by many. I couldn't add them to that list.
Also this list you can pick multiple ROMs... IF you actually use multiple ROMs on a Daily basis.

Thanks! Wasn't trying to be a smart a$$ was just curious what was different.
In that case I have tried many roms but only use Eclipse TW based as my daily driver. IMO it is extremely stable and looks great with the aosp mix. Also its the only TW based rom with the AOSP toggles. No other TW based rom has that. Nitro is a genious and works extermely hard to make us all happy. This is the only rom that makes me forget that it is TW based

XGokuSniperX's TurboFist 1.1 rom nightlies have been really stable for me. Pair that with the FeceTweaks and M0ng0l0id's B0n3rJamz Kernel and you're cooking with fire. All other Roms are inferior.

Bonestock has been amazing so far. Stock > ktoonsez kernel for me in terms of battery life. Only lacking an AOSP theme, but for a fairly new ROM, this is great, and the future is bright for the ROM, and Andy is great. ME7 gets rid of most of the bugs in MDK.

Flash ME7 and unlock the bootloader :fingers-crossed:
I know how you feel. I bought the s4 mainly for its features, screen size and battery life also thinking development would be insane coming from the somewhat abandoned htc rezound. Turns out that it's not much better. This bootloader is really keeping developers away
