Which rom is everyone's favorite? I know, there is no consensus on a favorite, but what is YOURS as a user? Personally I am using CM12 until I can find something to use as a DD. :crying:
i use the eclipse ROM. great for safestrap people and those who actually care about the camera on the s4
see, when using any camera app other than the samsung one, all the fancy stuff samsung put in their camera software to make pictures prettier (night mode, effects, etc) you're left with a pretty barebones camera. honestly I really don't care for that, i just use it for now because the ROM is extremely stable and everything works great, it is based on 4.4.2 though and development is on hold for now
Hyperdrive
I have tried a lot of roms but always tend to go back to Hyperdrive as it works the best with my Galaxy Gear. Currently running RLS20 have run almost every single one since the earlier HD releases on galaxy s4

I have used the above mentioned ROMs and I liked Eclipse and HyperDrive, would love a HD 5.1 ROM, but I just haven't found one that suits me the best yet.
I've tried a lot as well and always found myself going back to EchoeROM. I'm rocking v39.1

what exactly is wrong with cm12 though? sure Cyngn Inc are not the best people in the world but CyanogenMod isn't exactly a direct embodiment of them, in fact they're pretty distant other than the fact that cyanogenmod is backed by cyngn

I second that, only issue I have is with MMS. Stock app does not work for MMS. I am on safestrap. I tried without restoring data with titanium but still no luck and I really like the stock sms app.
Just for that reason I am using hyperdrive rom and no complain.
If anone one has any suggestion on how to fix the MMS issue in Echoe ROM I would go back to that.

you could try one of Dan's GPE ROMs if BT doesn't work when you get your mi band. and I have a pebble so BT is important for me too lol

So recently I have been browsing through the forums of the other Galaxy S4 variants and have found some amazing looking roms. I was wondering if it would be possible to port them to our variant. The rom in particular that really caught my eye was the FoxHound rom. It looks amazing and who wouldn't want to see that rom on our Verizon variant. So if anyone knows how or an answer please share.
This has been covered in detail. No porting is needed- you just need to change the APN. You can use just about any rom you want so long as it's not for the i9500.

While it has indeed been covered, you are correct in that I omitted the requirement to change the kernel as well. For the sake of brevity, I oversimplified it. For reference, the op can check the handful of threads in the general forum on this very subject matter.

Data works? So maybe AT&T/TMo ROMs can be flashed, but not i9505s because I haven't been able to get data to work on any i9505 ROM.
Thanks for the input. I will definitely look into this further before I go ahead and try this.
So I can flash international 9505 rom that has move apps to external sd feature?
Your mileage may vary, but I haven't been able to get data to work and when I asked other people they never respond so I'm gonna guess they didn't either. The ROMs will flash perfectly fine though.
I flashed FoxHound for i9505 with a verizon custom kernel as suggested and it flashed fine, but had issues once booted.

Hi All,
I'm a little new here but I've done a lot of searching and haven't been able to find anything recent on this topic. From what I can see there has been no progress unlocking the bootloader to flash custom Roms on the i545vruame7 s4 in a few months. I just got my S4 yesterday and when I received it, it already had i545vruame7 installed. I am able to gain root access but not unlock the bootloader to flash any custom roms. Have I missed something? Is there any way to flash back to the old version?
Thanks,
Peter

Welcome to the S4! So long as you are not on mj7 firmware you can still install Safestrap which allows you to run touchwiz based ROMs. Just search for it in development. If I'm not mistaken, it works with the Google Play Edition ROM too, so you can have a little bit of AOSP goodness.
Just to be curious, where did you get your phone from?

Makes sense, I used titanium to freeze the SDM app so I'm hoping that will stop it from auto updating, along with a whole bunch of other crapware.
Here is a flashable zip for roms to get sprint data to work (flashes the apns from and2 update). This is for future development and possibly to get data for other variant roms as well. Also, this zip may help if data lost for one reason or another (we all know its happened before one way or another). I've also loaded the apn-config with added apns for various variants. Uploaded to help development. This zip will (on international versions right yet) only give data and call signal (only broke thing is sms sending, can receive sms and send/receive mms great). As always....

The international ROMs are currently being worked on to work with Sprint variant, still trying myself to getting the APNs to work currently. They may release update (most ROms reported) before next week with Sprint fix. Normally though, you'd flash kernel after Wipe Data/Cache then ROM flash before kernel or any MODs.

Just went to the SM-G900F ROM, many boot just fine and some have signal bars but NO DATA yet. I hope fix soon, would like to try it out and see. Currently, the data/wifi signal icons all changed from Sprint to Samsung stock icons in status bar, the international dialer as well. Have to see unless I can get this first to work by messing around.

SM-G900F is standard international, GSM, qualcomm version for Samsung S5. Sorry, I goofed in typing, its 1:10 am here haha. But they're porting the ROM for everyone (CDMA and GSM soon).

On to the good stuff, it seems like a few people have Touchwiz Lollipop 5.0 booting on a couple different Note 3 variants with the Snapdragon. I'm not a dev and don't really have the means to try this right now but here is the thread with all the info. Hopefully a dev or some brave soul can check this out on our Sprint devices and see what's up. I would love to have a nice custom Lollipop ROM before the new year! Good luck to any who try!

Can you please explain what you did to get data working?
Sure. I used the same wifi fix listed in the link in Shadowcliffs reply. Just remember to get the second one. (The larger one). Flash in recovery.
I'm getting this error. I am not rooted. I have tried every fix I've seen on google. I even removed the SD card and the problem still persists. The SD card ins't even in the device and I still get the error. One thing I have noticed is my media storage does not have an option to disable. I'm running out of options and can't figure out how to get rid of this error. I am unable to download anything. from files form email, from dropbox, mega and I cannot download any update from the play store. I tried a factory reset and nothing. I know this problem may have something to do with download manager and media storage but I can't get anything to work running android 5.0 please help
I want to just get another one but I'm afraid this could be tied to my profile
Edit: come to find out, the problem is with android 5.0. There is an issue where the download manager and device storage apps aren't syncing up. And the fix is found in.......you guess it.........android 5.1, which this device has never gotten. I know there is a custom rom for android 5.1 floating around. Could anyone just point me in the direction of the custom rom and a guide on rooting this device? I used odin a long time ago when this device was on 4.4 but I'm sure it's different now on 5.0.

I was using that ROM for 6 months with no issues.
Only thing I didn't like was the stock sms app is messed up and you have to use textra. I even tried another sms app like signal and it also didn't work correct.
There is a similar build called Darklord Reborn by mid3vil. The post claims the stock sms app works. However, the link to the file is dead at the moment.
There is also a post called Lots of ROMs 7.1 by NMBNMB that seems promising. I started dabbling into a couple.
Hope this helps.

Looking these over, it seems like they are all for hlte and not hltespr... Sprint being a CDMA based system may not want to play nice. It seems like Resurection Remix had more luck in this , but even there the OP crossed out the Sprint variant working on this.
I hear Sprint may be merging/bought up soon and so perhaps there may be a change in the bandwidth that will be allowed for us users?

Agreed. Like I said Sprint Users Rejoice worked well for me.
