Bugger me it was TWRP.

After boot loops and unsuccessful flashes I booted Phil touch and shazam.

So are you confirmed all working GenShard? If so I will update the first post to recommend 'Philz Touch', lol...

Philz Touch is downloadable from here if anyone is wondering what the hall GenShard is on about (I was!). ;)

In fact, I'm interested to hear from pledgers what they feel would be a fair wait. Certainly until we've got any serious initial bugs ironed out but after that...? Thoughts?

P

I can test the beta trying to mod it with other Roms and kernels and tell you if it works :D Again, if you agree. Sorry for my bad english, but I'm italian.

1st Observation (Minor) - No ringtones, only facebook pop tone and Hangout tones

booting now Vanilla android.....booted successfully...wifi...Google account everything already setup...settings of Play store not same (who cares :P ) .... No SMS (which I guess you already know)

Installed FB and booting back to touchwiz.....andddd Hurrahhh...FB is there in touchwiz too... More to come :)

PS: off topic: You removed that hyperlink in my signature? if so thanks for that...I don't know how it came and tried so much to remove that....

Don't flash another kernel over what's included, lokidoki patches the one you have one I understand?

I can get TW to run easy but then when it gets to GPe mode it doesn't ever load. just vibrates

Posted

would restoring from titanium backup work, or should apps be installed from market instead?

getting ready to install, just need to do a proper nandroid backup first.

Going to test installing directly over omega 9.0 first, then do a clean install later if it bugs out.

That's basically a crash. Normally caused by a bad kernel so...

@PaulOBrien Will you make a triple boot Switch too?

Yeah I figured. Trying another. But see the boot screen comes up with the google boot and four colorful dots that go with it it just vibrates like xxx xx 20 seconds xxx xx 20 more seconds xxx xx and continues lol

I am using T-Mobile S4 running the latest software MDL, so I just go into recovery and flash the 2 parts?

Did anyone try this on T-Mobile S4 SGH-M919? I dont know it would work.

Wait so paul said that modaco switch is for gsm devices only? So how do I know if mine is the gsm version?

Posted

I just flashed it with my Galaxy S4, it works great! :D

I tried without wiping it, and it works great!.. :D

No problems or anything, great as it's first beta! :)

another update:

installed Nova on both ROMS and configured all the shortcuts but my Camera, Phone and Gallery shortcuts keep getting corrupted when I boot into the other ROM

Also my contacts app in Touchwiz rom is crashing, dialer and log works fine though, any guesses?
