Seriously !!!! Well this is sad....I just watched a YouTube video for this and it was pretty easy to do on nexus 5. All you have to do is to press a button on the top of the notification bar and a new user will be created just like on pc.

Try it on Samsung TouchWiz As we all know, Nexus uses pure clean Android.

True, You can't do it even on Lollipop, Samsung remove multiuser option.

Yup...why did Sammy does that ? I think it's a pretty useful feature to have. Anyways it's neither a deal breaker too
Yes you can, only if you are rooted.
Just browse to root directory and then go to /system/build.prop open it.
Add the following lines:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=5
Save and reboot. Now you can see multi-users option on settings. Enjoy!

It wasn't a problem of getting the files. It was a problem of zipping it and uploading from my MacBook Air. We can zip directly from Finder, but it makes a strange zip file that is screwed up. Anyway the one with systemui.apk is now available and as of now I'm zipping the one without it. Also will be working on a series of ROMs called S ROM for the HTC One X, One X+, One, and the Galaxy S 3, but will at first prioritize on the AT&T and International versions first.

This is more of a library of important Galaxy features. You flash it like it's a ROM, or if you're making a ROM you paste the files into the following directories.

GE stands for Google Edition as mentionned by the guy before me. I know that 4.2.2 still has the tw framework but I'm not sure about 4.3 which is what I'm on right now. I miss my samsung crap but I don't wanna go back to the lagfest that is touchwizz. Would it work on an aosp rom?

Yes there is, it is included in my rom among many other things, The attached one is pulled from the rom. Just copy it to system/app and reboot.
Thanks sir !
The thing is my device is not rooted as of yet ! I don't wanna trip Knox and waiting hopefully for a future custom recovery that doesn't trip it !
Thanks anyway, is there a smart dev who can make it as an installable /data app ?

I don't have this device, but you may test it yourself. Make nandroid backup, clean flash & report me back! It doesn't flash any firmware images (kernel, modem, ... etc); so, it's safe to test on other devices. If you've any issues, you can restore your backup.
DPI Affect
Heard mention that the DPI change affects the quick circle case display......is this true, or would it affect this? If it does change, what can be done post flashing to regain quick circle proper display?
Thanks for the work, btw!!!

Yes this Rom is for the Verizon VS985 variant but he just stated that it does not flash a kernel, modem, or recovery of any sort. So the worst thing that may happen is your device bootloops or you just may not have data, working WiFi or Bluetooth, or some other minor issue. It is relatively safe to flash on other devices to try so long as you have a Nandroid backup of a working or stock ROM.

Unpredictable, it may work perfect or with issues related to hardware drivers: mainly Mobile Data, WiFi, bluetooth, ... etc. It could be fixed though with a converter replacements (port).

Do you think you will be adding volume enhancements soon?
Loving the Rom. Just needs themes and home back up and restore enabled
Saw that you would be pushing 1.0.1 update for tether. Will this just be an update zip or will it require a full rom flash?
USB Debugging Doesn't Stick After Reboot
I attempted to get USB Debugging to stick after rebooting by adding this line to build.prop:
persist.service.adb.enable=1
I reset the permissions to rw-r-r after editing build.prop before I rebooted. No luck, still not remaining enabled after a reboot.

I hope you can get Aroma working later on. The only downside is the size of the rom for download. The only bloat I find useful on this phone is multi window, knock on, and the clipboard. I hope to see some kind of volume enhancement as well.

Oh also the Verizon variants messaging app doesn't allow you to choose vibe pattern if there's a way you could enable that it would be awesome.

I've got the itch to do a bit of themeing. Do you guys use the G3 TweaksBox themes? Im considering building for that since it is cross ROM compatible.
It will be a black/grey/orange theme using the Numix Cinnamon theme as inspiration.
Would there be an issue if I change the DPI to the original value.
I don't like the one with the ROM, and I can't get used to it.
What would be the best way to go about it?

Most apps/themes should work with this ROM since it's deodexed, except carrier-related apps: messaging, *telephony*, ... etc. I'll make my own themes & a list of compatible themes later.

Root method for lollipop for the SM-A700F THIS WILL TRIP KNOX. If you don't want to trip knox don't use this. If you do use it and whine you tripped knox because you didn't read ,we will all point and laugh at you.
Named it TrapKernel because well its not my normal HispAsian Kernel and I listened to a crap ton of Trap Music while doing it.
Thanks to @g.lewarne and his root method with his Unibase and Unikernel for the s6 , we finally have root after I ported it over to us. So be sure to thank him for his work.
What's included:
Auto installation of root and busy box
Kernel set to permissive
Otherwise stock
So here's the deal. Stupid simple.
1. Put Phone in Download mode
2. Open Odin
3. Connect Phone
4. Put Kernel in AP Slot
5.Flash it
6. Reboot and profit
Notes:
Download SuperSu from the Playstore. Its not included.
If at first it doesnt boot,hold the power button til it shuts off and reboot.
To fix wifi passwords= Open build.prop and change ro.securestorage=true to ro.securestorage=false
Download
Do NOT mirror this link. Period.
TrapKernel SM-A700F
Special thanks to:
@g.lewarne for the obvious reason of being awesome and his root method for the s6.
@XperiaNoobie & @nino64 for testing
@Chainfire for SuperSU
Heres the source with it set to permissive if anyone wants to fork it and build a kernel that allows root.

Hey after some research i found out that when your SE is set to permissive you lose the privilege of the private mode as it suggests that your phone isn't safe :/ You can use third-party apps so you can lock your apps though :/

I used System App Remover Root. There you can delete root apps.

Install the APK yourself, it's not hard to find
Maybe I will make a aroma package for next update as a standalone ZIP, So it can be flashed and you can choose if you want any extra apps that I removed, like Cloud for example. If more request it.
works nice with new phantom kernel and magisk 16.7 and got a question, is there no dvfs in system ?
dex and gear vr?
Ok it has dvfs but i cant set any fingerprint, iris nor face scan.
by the way cant use substratum because buildprop shows device as pixel 2 which makes some apps buggy

I fail to understand what dvfs has to do with the security features or in this context.
Dev probably deleted some important libs while cleaning the ROM or you had a "bad flash" I guess.
In either case, have you tried a fresh install and happen to have the same error?
