4.4.2 KitKat without Orange garbage - Galaxy S 4 General

This help is obsolete because now it is possible to download Nordic 4.4.2 version I9506XXUCNG3 without Garbadge.
Hi all,
If you want to install a new 4.4.2 without Orange start animation and applications
You have to immediately after flashing 4.4.2 (before start of Android) flash this hidden image from 4.3:
1) Flash hidden.tar.md5 below by ODIN.
hidden.tar.md5
Or if you already start your phone after flashing 4.4.2
1) Flash hidden.tar.md5 above.
2) After that you have to also flash system.tar.md5 from link bellow (I've took it from 4.4.2)
system.tar.md5
3) If you had rooted your phone, you have to root your phone again. (Same with xPosed Installer, Bussybox, Density changer etc.)

I flashed already incl the orange stuff....i tried youz zip via recovery...doesn't let me install

It's the same thing...

Hi,
I've slightly modified my post about Orange garbadge.

I just did it and got it to work, here's some clearer instructions:
Untick the auto reboot box in Odin (don't tick any other boxes, just have "F. Reset Time" checked, and then flash I9506XXUCNG3_I9506FTMCNG1_I9506XXUCNF3_HOME.tar.md5.
Once it completes (it will say RES for a while afterwards but eventually it will change to "PASS" in a green box) wait a bit and then power off the phone (10 seconds of holding the power button).
Start the phone in download mode the same way you got into it to flash the firmware (home, power and volume down). In Odin tick the Auto Reboot box and then change the File [download] AP from the firmware to the hidden.tar.md5. Hit [START] and once it's all done the phone will reboot.
You'll find if you're coming from 4.3 the phone will say "updating applications" for a while and all of your data and apps should remain intact.
I chose to go to settings and factory reset the phone for a fresh experience but if you don't experience any issues then you should be alright.
I don't know anything about root, recoveries or dev for 4.4.2 so don't ask
For anyone wondering I flashed from a Vodafone Australia i9506 and everything is working perfectly except for the samsung keyboard, I'll probably have to put the APK for google's keyboard and install it manually to be able to test the phone properly but so far it's looking promising.
EDIT: A long work around method to fix the keyboard issue was to use S-Voice to do a google search for the Google Keyboard APK. It downloaded and installed and now I can set up the Play Store and get the up to date version, and continue testing. I will report back in this post.
EDIT 2: After the long process of updating everything I can report that everything works; The camera, GPS, 4G, Wifi, sensors. The only thing that's broken is the "Samsung Hub" application, it launches but then dies. No biggy for me because I use Googles apps (including the Google launcher).

Perfect! Done all like juzza87 said... GUIDE WORKS!!!!

The keyboard doesnt work because of the modification of the hidden and CSC. That´s a known error.

[Q] GSF ID Key

So I have the issue where after installing a new rom, i am missing the google service framework or gsf id key. with this missing i am unable to connect to the play store. so i would like to know if anyone knows where that key is stored so that i might manually add it in from my previous working rom install. not sure why it does not get generated after going through the install. only time it works is if i odin back to a stock rom, go through and reroot and unlock it and then flash a new rom. shouldn't have to odin stock to get this to work. i have tried literally everything. so if anyone knows where that key is stored after it is generated that would be helpful. thanks.

The key is randomly generate and you can't edit this key. you need to either factory reset or reflash rom for a new key.

Ah, now I see said the blind man, so you lose the ID every time you flash the ID. How about try the old Gapp, if I remembered correctly it will ask if you would like to replace the old ID with the new one and you have the option to pick the new one or keep the old one.

yes. i odin to stock, reroot, unlock, custom recovery. make sure play store works. then i reboot recovery and flash new rom. now if i want to change roms again, i should be able to just wipe data, cach and dalvik and flash the new rom and everything should work. but after going through setup and putting in my account stuff. which goes exactly as it should, i cannot use the play store because my phone has no gsf id key. so the only way i have to found to fix is go back to staock and start over.

Understood, like I said, after flash your custom rom, try flash the old PA Gapp. I believe the issue is in the Gapp package. Give it a shot you have nothing to lose!

been there, done that.
I realize this is an old thread but I found it in a search and it doesn't mention what I found out which is my unrooted phone easily changed the GSF ID without flashing anything.
I put the steps here so that we could then move to the next step in learning how to change the GSFID at will.

[Q] HELP! Non-stop g.apps has stopped message!

Hey guys,
I'm in dire need of help. I have a Galaxy S6 (G920F) and I rooted it today with PingPongRoot. Afterwards, I started getting the message that .com.(something here).gapps has crashed. I kept getting it every few seconds, rendering my phone pretty much useless, as I couldn't do anything.
It took me around 10 minutes to get to the factory reset option. Afterwards, it rebooted and got to the setup, and OMG! the message keeps popping up non stop right now! I don't even have enough time to select anything..
So please, I am in dire need of help. If you need any more info, please tell me what info you need! :'(

[ROM] [MEDIAPAD X2] [5.1.1] B112 Rooted with GAPPS

Rom depreciated, op removed.
Thanks
ajsmsg78 said:
Here is a stock rooted B106 ROM with the Google Play Store and Contacts Sync preinstalled. This is great for those of you who have a hard time getting the Google Apps to work. Flash this in TWRP. Thanks to the HRT Team for their hard work. Their thread is located here: http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-5911144-1-1.html
Features & Mods:
Removed unstall_apk.xml files from the cust folder
Removed mms_config.xml files from the cust folder
Added in the Google Play Store & Google Contacts Sync Adapter
SuperSU is installed by default
The ROM is also slightly debloated. Some of the Huawei bloat was removed
Download Link:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5I_q70mNuR4cGJTaTN3N3Z0Tlk
Steps to flash. Follow these instructions or the ROM flash will fail:
1) Boot into TWRP
2) Do a factory reset
3) Reboot recovery
4) Mount System, Cache, Data, cust, splash2 and newsys
5) Flash the ROM
6) Reboot System
7) Profit!
This should work regardless of what build you are currently on (B106, B107, B108, B109)

Hi
Before doing the above must the 703L be already on stock B106 ROM or can flash this directly from B015 ?

Otherwise, so far so good. Thanks for the ROM!

When I tested the ROM before I posted it I didn't have that problem. I'll install it again a few times to see if I can recreate that problem. Did you do a wipe before you flashed or did you flash it over an already installed ROM?

None of the X2 ROM's I have ever run was I able to add a Google account through Accounts. For some reason it just doesn't show up even after I added GoogleAccountManager.apk. To add a second account go to settings, backup and reset, hit Backup account and hit Add account.

I managed to get the b015 stock ROM working on my 702L but this is as far as it gets.
I flashed the 5.1.1. twrp_cn but it couldn't reboot into recovery and instead it went on a boot loop.
I then flashed 5.1 twrp_cn (previous version before Android 5.1.1) and managed to get into custom recovery from b015 on my 702L. Using this twrp I then flashed this custom B106 rom and it inidcated success.
However after reboot it simply went into boot loop. Not sure is it because my device is still 702L though I managed to get b015 703L stock rom on my 702L. Neither could I flash into stock B106.

Did you wipe before you flashed or did you dirty flash over your existing ROM? You may have to wait until the 702L gets Android 5.1.1 then try flashing the 703L ROM after that.

I did the factory reset, per the instructions. I didn't wipe anything beyond that.
After a few days, everything has continued to be great. It's probably just my imagination, but I feel this ROM is running much faster and smoother than the KangVIP ROM I was using previously. Of course, that ROM was based on B108, so that might have been the issue, too.

Yeah it's a bit smoother than KangVIP for me too. It's a lot more debloated than KangVIP so that's why it's faster. I installed it a few times and the Play Store worked for me the first time on each reload. I'm hoping to get a b109 version so I can mod it as well.
I have had a few minor issues pop up over the last few days, and I was wondering if anyone else has had similar issues or solutions.
1. I listen to audiobooks via the Overdrive app during my commute and trudge from the parking lot to work. In the past, when I've shut off the bluetooth connection, the audio has stopped. I have to do this when switching between my headset and the car stereo and vise versa. Lately, I've noticed when I shut off the devices, my audio pauses for a second or so, then starts playing over the phone speaker. Since it's both devices, I don't believe it's an issue with the devices. Oddly enough, autoplay starts up just fine when I connect to a device, but auto-pause (auto-stop?) doesn't.
2. The other issue is alarms. I'm using Google clock, mostly so I can easily move my alarms between phones. In the past, when I've re-imaged my phone and restored the Clock app and data via TB, I've had to go in and toggle the alarms off and on to get them to work the first time. After that, they worked fine after every reboot. Lately, I've noticed when I reboot, none of my alarms work. They don't show as pending in the notification bar, on either the left or right side. Once I go in and toggle them on and off, they work fine again until the next reboot. The problem is that I run a Llama task around 3:00 AM every morning to reboot the phone (Auto Reboot stopped working for me). So, every morning I have to go in and toggle them again. Once I do, any pending alarms show up on the left side of the notification center, and I get notification that I have alarms set on the right side as well. I have the Huawei clock app frozen via TB, but unfreezing it didn't stop the issue. I guess I can stop rebooting every day, but I'd prefer not to. As for the setup, I've double checked, and Clock is added to both Protected Apps and Startup Apps. I even tried setting the clock app to open on reboot via Llama, and while it opened up, the alarms still didn't work until I toggled them.
Thanks in advance for any help.

As a quick follow up, the Bluetooth appears to be an app-specific issue. I was just trying it with some other apps while I had the phone connected to a Bluetooth speaker at home. The other apps paused just fine. I finally found audio player settings (not in the General settings, but only when the audio player is being used) in the Overdrive app. It had a toggle to turn the feature on and off. I toggled it, and it seems to be working now.

Is there any word on b105 or greater on the 702?
To follow up on the alarm issue I was having above, I uninstalled the Google clock app, reinstalled it from the Play store, and the restored the data only from TB. After a couple if test reboots (full and hot), it appears to be sticking. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
And just to say it one more time, this ROM is still working great for me.

I don't have a 702L to fool around with or I'd try doing it myself.
I've been playing around with and reading a lot of what it takes to make ROM'S. I made a stock B109 TWRP flashable Debloated ROM with Gapps included. I'm testing it out now and will post it as soon as everything is working correctly. The only thing not working at the moment is the SIM card switching.

Great !
I was wondering whether the clue to the SIM card switching could lie on certain prop files ? I can't recall exactly the full file name but I even saw "Dual SIM Settings" being associated with "dsdsxxxx" file ?
I asked because if you recall in my other post few days back I managed to do OTA upgrade from stock B106 to B109 on my 702L so I'd think the radio baseband kernell would have been flashed properly albeit on a different hardware.
And the fact that my 702 continues to work fine in dual SIM mode......

Noble rom nougat running on g920v !

Dont use noble nougat ! Use ultimate nougat under the unified development . There are 3 different versions either one is okay. Everything works on ultimate nougat but noble lags a good bit.
Each one has a description on what it does and has. All are bebloated + custom tweaks. Check them out. Any touchwiz rom should work. As long as ported to sg g920f.
You have to be on nougat stock firmware. At least thats all ive tried. You can try on 5.1 as long as you follow my guide. Go to this site - https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s6/general/root-nougat-s6-verizon-t3710864 and download the files he has on his post. Thats how you root on nougat.
If you are on nougat, switch to bootloader mode, open odin, and click on ap and select the eng root. Then reboot and go to settings/security and tick unknown sources. Then extract the unroot file you downloaded and run the file that says root.bat and give your phone a few minutes. It will restart and supersu will be installed. If it doesnt work the first time try again
Now you need to download flashfire. And download the custom touchwiz rom you want. Again you can find them under unified developement. And gapps if you want. I use aroma installer to pick what apps i want to be system apps.
Once you are rooted have supersu and flashire, youll need to set you year on the date back to 2013 or flashfire wont open correctly. It does that on my phone atleast you can try it out. When u have flashire open click on the + at the bottom right and click flash zip or ota. Click on the ron youve downloaded and then select the box next to mount system read and write . Then press the + button again and add a wipe action. Just leave it on what it automatically tics. Make sure you hold down on the wipe action before hitting the flash button at the bottom and put it above the rom installation. So youre phone restores first. Do not tick internal storage on the wipe action you will brick your phone bc no sd card.
Flashfire should take you through an aroma installer for the rom depending on the one youve downloaded. Make sure to pick g920f kernel.
Go through chek what you want and then install. As long as you hit the mount system read and write button on the wipe action back in flashfire it will install and not get stuck on %20 or %25. Once its done let it reboot your phone will come to a crash screen. A blue one with a warning sign saying software failure or something. You need to hold the power button volume down and homd button until it cuts off. The do the same thing to turn it on in download mode and flash the eng root file in ap again from odin and your phone will boot. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to boot.
I installed xposed and all kinds of other tweaks to this rom as well. Let me know how it works out for you . Im going to upload photos in the replies.
Able to flash and open twrp but no function.
Just Google a touchwiz rom ported to galaxy s6 and follow my instructions. I've tried 2 others. Everything seems to be working other than if you are not rooted there is intense lagging from time to time.
I have some questions, is this on 5.1.1 rooted with mrmikes root? Is the rom pre-rooted? Is it debloated? And does it have s health?
this needs a more in-depth description, when i tried it, i flashed it on 5.1.1, i got to the setup of the rom, i chose the international s6, i didnt know which one to choose, then the CSC variant, i chose one of them which had a description like "multi us, it started installing, it got to 25%, then the screen just went black, i opened rootatboot, it succesfully worked, but my phone screen is still black, what are we supposed to do?

Sorry i updated my op check it out ^^
And if you have black screen then boot to odin mode and flash nougat. I know for sure it works on there. And if you follow my steps i suggest using ultimate nougat note fe rom. Its bloatware free and smooth as butter. Has aod edge screen and alot more tweaks.

For me the note fe rom downloads at 700kb/s why? roms usually download at like 7-8 mb/s
Not able to do it, When i flash stock nougat with odin, it gets stuck on the galaxy s6 logo after reboot. Then i factory reset and wiped cache partition, and its still stuck there. So i had no choice but to downgrade to 5.1 again. Now i flashed the pre rooted official nougat rom with flashfire, and once i was on nougat i was gonna flash the custom rom. But, when you try to flash something in flashfire on the pre rooted nougat rom it gives me an error saying an unknown error has occured. Now im back at rooted 5.1. Help anyone?

Would you like me to upload a backup of my rom that you can just flash in flashfire? Or post a video of me showing how to do this.

I'd reccommend video and flashfire, you can make a video of how to do it and make it easier by flashing it in flashfire, so a tutorial on how to flash it on flashfire correctly.
Followed the procedure but flashfire just remains blank on boot... why?

Did you check the box that said mount system read and write when clicking on the file to flash ? And did you add a wipe action before adding the rom ? And are u rooted with super su ?

yes... followed everything to the letter. Was having issues with the flashfire but i downloaded the pro apk and it acquired root permission without crashing... I used flashfire .57 pro to flash the pre rooted rom but the flashfire in the pre rooted rom also crashed after aquiring root so I uninstalled it and downloaded the .73 pro apk and that worked but it doesn't flash the rom no matter what options I choose. Tried so many combinations... I put the wipe before the flash and i also tried vice versa, tried with flash procedure set to normal, recovery, download and all still came out with the same outcome = Blank flashfire with 2015-2017 screen. So i just restart the device and everything is normal. Using the pre rooted rom for now

Okay do everythig you did again but before opening flashfire you need to turn off wifi. Go to settings and date and time. Turn off automatic date and time and set year to 2013 then re open and use flashfire. That was my original problem.
I've tried everything to get mobile data and service to work that is the only bug but makes this thread a complete bust until I can find a work around or fix for it.

I use my s6 as a backup phone but something is wrong with my s7 so i use my s6 more, and i dont use a verizon sim so i use my s6 with no sim. So, if you can, can you make still make a video for it? other people who flash it might find a way to get service to work.

Note 10.1 unresponsive to touch but S-pen works fine

So 3 days ago I got bored of Android 4.4.2 on my 6 years old tablet. It worked fine for browsing the internet and watching youtube but I wanted more. I thought that was installing a new android an easy business but I was wrong. I downloaded TWRP and lineage os android 7.1. for my N8000.Then I flashed my recovery and later I download a sketchy rooting app from an internet called "iRoot". Then "iRoot" downloaded and installed an app with some Chinese characters. I wanted to delete that but there was no icon in "manage apps" tab
then I disabled it in other tabs and rebooted my device. when my device rebooted my touchscreen wouldn't work. I pulled my S-pen out and it worked perfectly fine (the device was never dropped). So I tried factory resetting my device and the problem was still there. I installed SuperSu app I thought that it would help me but when I open it it said ''binary occupied''. I was hopeless. Then I installed lineageOS and the problem was still there. I tried going back to my old android 4.4.2 but my sd card was corrupted. I installed Odin and flashed factory OS for my device. now I have the same problem. btw this was my first time doing this stuff so I made a lot of mistakes. I saw people fixing this problem simply by calling *#2663# but when I do that my screen flashes back and then it forwards me to my home screen. The problem was still there. Do you guys know the solution?

Its the rooting app that is your problem .
TWRP install via Odin wipe data system cache etc reboot to download mode .

I wiped everything. I just installed Factory android 4.4.2 with Odin. Then I installed TWRP 2.8.4.0 via Odin and wiped everything. but my touchscreen still doesn't work even in TWRP. I was installing Lineage 14.0 from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-1/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3848514 and I ran out of time. I will update you guys tomorrow. :fingers-crossed:
So *#2663# doesn't let you reflash the tsp firmware?
If not, your tsp ic need to get replaced.

What do you mean by that? Do I need to replace my digitizer, motherboard, or something else? I'm quite new in this type of stuff so I don't understand most of the things
Also, I tried installing multiple versions of official os and other versions of Lineage and Slimroms and my touch still doesn't work. I also tried reflashing firmware on all those versions but it still work.
This menu which appears, when you dial *#2663#, it let you update the touch screen panel firmware,
it flashes it directly to the chip.
If this fails or simply doenst work, you have to replace this chip (TSP IC) or your mainboard.

Thanks for your quick response. Basically, because this tablet is over 6 years old, and I am unable to find the correct motherboard in my country. I found tablets (used) like mine for something near 40 euros. I wanted to buy a whole motherboard and replace it, but it was like 30-40 dollars and shipping is an additional 50 - 60 euros. So I think that I should wait for a cheap broken one and then try to make Frankenstein from those two. Anyway thanks for your help!
