As long you're rooted, you can flash it! Wipe Cache and Dalvik after completed flash!

First pic before flash, and second pic after flash the file.
Thank you.

@zohaib0001 what have you actually witnessed as a difference because in all fairness I've not seen one artifact that would suggest these drivers are anything other than reputable. And the performance has been top notch, if installing these will make things even better then great but without something to complain about I can justify flashing this and I imagine many others feel the same.
Does flashing this reduce the temp of the phone because that would be nice.

Also you can modify it to increase the score which is really bad. Use a game and fps counter

Hi Switiz!
First of all: Thanxx for your work! I've downloaded your ROM yesterday. Unfortunately I was not able to flash it or better said, the phone doesn't boot after flashing. All that I've seen was the white "Samsung GT-I9000"-Logo that appears when the phone boots up, then it repeats all the time. Just a feedback dude........

After installing the rom, it keeps on the Pac Man logo animation. More than 10 minutes.

Any clues?
Did you hard reset by holding power and volume up till it vibrates 3 times.

No problem your not the only one with that issue when I get home from work I will redo the framework file and hopefully it fixes the issue.
My problem is that it doesn't happen with my device. Makes it hard to figure out the exact cause

After new install, the problem continues.
Will wait for a fix to test again. Thanks!
How is the ROM history about your device
For my opinion the problem is the framework

Lol not the most elegant way to install a ROM but I will enable the old download link and if people want to do it that way they can till I can get the framework fixed. It is a problem with apktool or my use of it but no matter what even if I don't change anything it won't boot it is in the bug tracker to be fixed in version 2 in a couple of weeks

Download the Rom from here and those on 4.3 can flash the rom and enjoy wipe and factory reset fix the root when its prompted in recovery
for those on 4.2.2
You have to Flash bootloaders and radios this tool would be helpful without loosing your Data
download the tool from here
install usb drivers and your bootloader should be unlocked and you should have rooted devices
extract the bootloaders and radios.zip not the rom please
and run mrkfastboottool
1) copy zip to SD card
2)tap your build number 7 times and enable USB Debugging connect the phone in fastboot mode i.e.power off your phone hold volume up and down button and the power button all together
3) run the mrkfastboottool it will do it work automatically
and after everything is done go to recovery in the bootloader menu by navigating using volume up and down and select using power button
install the zip and before rebooting a prompt will appear to fix root so fix it
you will have a phone running with prime04 bootloader and twrp 2.6.0.0 recovery and the latest android 4.3
Thank you

I think that sound mod can be found as flashable .zip, but some people may like this ROM, because then they don't have to flash any sound mods themselves..

I agree with that AOSP thing..
It's better to build own ROM instead of using Google's factory image ROM with one mod
If you OP build a ROM from sources which also works properly then you can be sure that people will like and use your ROM.. If you build from sources you can add more mods easier way like e.g. cherry picking features from CM / PA....
this ^
do it.. build from source and include all the awesome mods..
u can have my word that i will use your rom and support your work

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/
The advantage of deodexing is in modification possibilities. This is most widely used in custom ROMs and themes. A developer building a custom ROM would almost always choose to deodex the ROM package first, since that would not only allow him to modify various APKs, but also leave room for post-install theming.
On the other hand, since the .odex files were supposed to quickly build the dalvik cache, removing them would mean longer initial boot times. However, this is true only for the first ever boot after deodexing, since the cache would still get built over time as applications are used. Longer boot times may only be seen again if the dalvik cache is wiped for some reason.
For a casual user, the main implication is in theming possibilities. Themes for android come in APKs too, and if you want to modify any of those, you should always choose a dedoexed custom ROM.
Thanks bro...
