what is this ?
1) Is this your work ?
2) from the link page you have given to the download page, it refers to your blogspot at Idroid Horizon. And the download link refer to another page which is actually @fahadali2315 work to port the S5, based on Xnote custom ROM (created by @soloilmeglio & @xentrix).
3) If this is not your work, why did you post such thread on the development page ?
4) Your this post never even put any of the dev name. It's not being respectful to the dev.
5) XNote Galaxy S5 port has its own thread already, maintain by the dev himself, and a Q&A thread maintain by me.
and lastly, it doesn't even need Gapps separate installation.
So can you explain further, what thread you are trying to post here ?

As Rom manager rebbot doesn't work, I installed Root checker and it told me thet the phone was not rooted properly. So I decided to follow another guide [HACK] Superboot Method for 2.3.2 (GRH78C) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-s/development/hack-superboot-method-2-3-2-grh78c-t927838).
Now the phone doesn't work! In other words when I press the power button the Google logo screen remains and Android doesn't start.
If i hold volume up and power button I gain the following:
Code:
Fastboot mode
Product name: Hearing
Hw version - rev 52
Bootloader version - I902XXLC2
Baseband version - I902XXKI1
Carrier info - EUR
Serial number - 3035...
Lock state - unlocked
and I can choose:
Code:
[LIST]
[*]Reboot bootloader
[*]Reboot
[*]Recovery
[*]Power off
[/LIST]
I think that the problem is that the phone is looking for the file "install-recovery.sh" that I renamed into "install-recovery.sh.old".
How can I reanimate my Nexus S?

I'm going to put it step by step using the Nexus root tool kit (NRTK)
1. download a flashable recovery of your choice (CWM 6.0.4.3 Philz 6.19.3 or TWRP 2.7.0 or higher on all these)
2. download the kitkat rom you want to install
3. download the Gapps that match the rom you chose ( if a 4.4.2 rom get a 4.4.2 gapps if 4.4.4 then 4.4.4)
4. boot your phone into bootloader / fastboot
5. connect your phone to your pc (it should recognize it)
6. open your NRTK and go to the advanced section and choose to temporarily boot custom recovery (this will be TWRP 2.6.3)
7. ON YOUR PHONE select mount usb
8. ON THE COMPUTER open the device/folder for your phone and create a new file on your SD card ( I called mine " !zip " this kept it ontop of the list of files) and copy the recovery, rom, and kernel to this folder.
9. ON YOUR PHONE unmount usb, return to the main menu screen and select install, find that folder you made and select the recovery zip that you copied and swype to install
10. after it installs (10seconds) return to the main menu, select reboot then reboot recovery ( you may get a warning about not having a rom or su, ignore both)
11. now you are on your KK compatible recovery (nearly there)
12. No matter which recovery you chose find the section to wipe or format your phone (DO NOT WIPE OR FORMAT YOUR SD CARD !!!! this will wipe everything off your phone and may make it hard / impossible to restore) and ONLY wipe or format system, cache, and dalvik partitions. On philz there is an option to wipe to install a new rom (this is a onestep version of the above)
13. return to the main menu page and select install, choose your rom and install, then your gapps and install ( if on TWRP you can select both by choosing the option to add a zip to flash)
14. the moment of truth, now that you have flashed both rom and gapps, you need to return to the main menu and select reboot and reboot system...
15. assuming you did all of this issue free, you are free to enjoy your phone..
*if you don't have your phone recognized by your computer / NRTK, you need to follow the instructions for NRTK to get the correct drivers for your computer
**if you are not clear on what you are doing, ask before you make a mistake
***Your custom rom will be pre-rooted, so no need to try to root it

Like this MIUI ROM based on the latest Android 4.4.2? We love it too and we know you are looking forward to install it on your phone now. Now please read below for important tips on how to make sure your installation goes smooth and you do not end up with any problems.
Backup and some important tips
Done with USB Driver? Good. Now here we go for some work that you must do before installing this firmware. Please follow the important points that you need to take care of, as we don’t want anyone losing their personal data or apps:
Backup your all important data and apps because during any installation of a new custom ROM or Official Firmware , your device will be wiped and cleaned with new operating system. Make a backup for just in case, you never know when anything might go wrong.
Samsung user can also backup data by using Official Sumsang Kies. If you backup data manually, you will get more options for what to choose from. You can also move your data to other Android devices from different manufacturers, i.e moving Samsung Galaxy S5 backup data to Google Nexus 10. If you already have a custom recovery (ClockworkMod, TWRP etc.) installed on your phone, we strongly recommend a backup using that as it creates a complete image of your existing phone set up.
Few more important things that you must remember before installing any custom ROMs or Official Firmwares:
You might face some problems in connecting your Android device to the computer. How to fix? You need to enable USB debugging mode. See here: How to Enable USB Debugging — for Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich and KitKat.
Make sure your Android device is charged up to 80-85% battery level. This might help you: How to Check Battery Percentage. Why? Because, if your phone goes off suddenly while installing a custom ROM, flashing an official firmware update or installing mods etc. — your phone might get bricked or go dead permanently. No one wants that, right?
Most of the tutorials and how-to guides on iDroid Horizon are for factory unlocked Android devices. We recommend NOT to try our guides if your device is locked to a carrier, unless we have specified the device model or carrier name.
All set and ready? Good. Now, let’s proceed with the tutorial below and update Galaxy Note 3 N900/N9000Q to MIUI ROM v5 (4.9.26) KitKat 4.4.2 custom firmware.
Entire Step-By-Step procedure:
Step 1 - Download MIUI ROM v5 (4.9.26) KitKat 4.4.2 and Google Apps for Galaxy Note 3 N900/N9000Q to your computer.
Step 2 - Connect and mount your Galaxy Note 3 USB memory on your computer using the USB cable.
Step 3 - Now copy/paste the downloaded MIUI ROM v5 zip file to your SD card. Make sure the file is in the SD card root (not in any folder).
Step 4 - Then turn OFF your phone and disconnect from the USB cable.
Step 5 - Now to get in the Recovery Mode. Switch ON the phone while pressing and holding Volume Up + Home + Power buttons together. You will get an exclamation mark now. Again, hold your Volume Up + Power buttons. You should now be in your Recovery Mode.

Hi all,
I tried to install Android Revolution HD 52.0, but it didn't work. I tried to do it according the following steps:
I rooted my samsung galaxy S3:
Step 1 – Download the above mentioned file for Galaxy S3 to your computer. (Android Revolution HD 52.0)
Step 2 – Connect and mount your Galaxy S3 USB memory on your computer using the USB cable.
Step 3 – Now copy/paste the downloaded Android_Revolution_HD-SGS3_40.0.zip file to your SD card. Make sure the file is in the SD card root (not in any folder).
Step 4 – Then turn OFF your phone and disconnect from the USB cable.
Step 5 – Now to get in the Recovery Mode. Switch ON the phone while pressing and holding Volume Up + Home + Power buttons together.
Step 6 – Then, perform a cache wipe by selecting “wipe cache partition” as you can see in the image below
Until here everything just work fine, but step 7 didn't work. I don't have an advanced option so I couldn't clear the dalvik cache.
Step 7 – Now this is optional, but it is recommended to perform a wipe of your dalvik cache as well. You will not get into boot loops or any other errors. From CWM recovery, go to ‘advanced’ and then select “wipe dalvik cache”.
The I did step 8 and 9.
Step 8 – Then go back to the main recovery screen and select “install zip from SD card"
Step 9 – Now select “choose zip from sdcard” as shown below. Using your volume keys, navigate to the Android_Revolution_HD-SGS3_40.0.zip file that you copied to your SD card and select it using the Power button. Setup will start now.
It looked like everything went OK because it said everything was installed, but there wasn't a next step anymore.
I just got back in recovery mode. So 10 and 11 aren't done.
I rebooted the device and the stock ROM was on the device.
Step 10 – AROMA Installer will start now. Choose Data Wiping Option if you’re coming from stock firmware or any other Custom ROM. (Skip this step if you’re coming from an earlier version of this Firmware). Follow the on-screen instructions.
Step 11 – After the installation completes, Reboot your phone by selecting “Reboot system now” from ClockworkMod Recovery menu as shown in the picture below. It might take a couple of minutes on first boot. So, be patient.
Can someone help me with this?
If you need more information I can provide it.
With kind regards

THIS GUIDE IS ONLY FOR GALAXY S4 SGH-1337M
Guide made on 2017-03-12
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE!
PERFORMING THIS WILL MAKE YOUR WARRANTY GO AWAY!
LEAVE A THANKS IF IT WORKS
This guide is split up into four parts meaning that if you just want to root your phone or just want to restore to stock then you can YOU CAN NOT INSTALL XPOSED WITHOUT ROOTING AND GETTING STOCK FIRST!
Welcome to my guide on how to install XPOSED on the Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-1337M) this guide is strictly for the SGH-1337M the reason I made this was because I spent a lot of hours trying to put parts of threads together since no one had specifically made a guide that was simple and noob friendly for installing XPOSED. Another reason is some people feel uncomfortable following guides made for the SGH-1337 mainly because it is different from the SGH-1337M. Another reason was I found no updated 2016/2017 guides for it. Follow every part step by step or you may risk losing your phone.
Also make sure you backup anything that isn't synced with Google that you want to keep, photos, music, contacts. This will delete all data on the phone.
This guide will be split up into four parts:
-Stock
-Root
-ROM that is needed
-Installing XPOSED
Requirements:
-A PC
-Internet
-Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-1337M
-USB Cable
-SD Card with at least three free GB on it.
Stock Firmware
BEFORE YOU BEGIN (IMPORTANT)
1. Power off device
2. Boot into the stock recovery by holding Power Button+Home Button+Volume Up Button when you see the Galaxy S4 logo then let go of Power Button but keep holding Home and Volume Up
3. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
4. Wipe Cache Partition
