This Kernel is based off the sources of AndreiLux Perseus Kernel (alpha35).
If you consider to thank me, please also consider to thank him http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1927852
This kernel only supports roms of android version 4.3.x (sammy and aosp) and 4.4.x!
You can dualboot any of those roms
if you were using this kernel on aosp based roms, and want to use another kernel, you need to reflash the rom, of course without any wipe, it's just to restore modified files
Features (changes compared to Perseus):
- merges samsung open source update12
- dual sound engine
- compiled with linaro gcc 4.8.3
- updated Linux Kernel base to 3.0.101
- updated block subsystem (i/o schedulers) to linux 3.4
- updated memory management subsystem to linux 3.4
- partial updated kernel main system to linux 3.4 (current work in progress)
- zram, zsmalloc and lowmemorykiller updated from 3.9
- DevilQ cpu governor (default)
- fiops v2 i/o scheduler
- working for Aosp and Sammy at once (Big thx to Gokhanmoral for making this possible)
- Portet Ezekeel's Touchwake Feature (from nexus s)
- Oc up to 2.0 Ghz
- Backport from Linux 3.5 smp driver parts
- Wifi driver updated from note3
- backported zswap from linux 3.13 (this replaces zram now)
- backported cpu-boost driver
- possibility to set high/low power mode for wifi when screen is off
- LulzactiveQ cpu governor (from siyahkernel, thx again to Gokhanmoral)
- Hotplug Cpu Governor
- Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP
http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.2#head-1c3e71416a9fdc2f59c1c251a97963f165302b6e
- improve memcopy/memmove
- Using Voodoo Sound and Boeffla Sound
- LED Control by yank555-lu
- ExFat support (thx to samsung for opensourcing the driver)
if your rom is based off PAC, Bam, Fusion, ... :
IMPORTANT: As per notice of 01.11.2013, my CM10.2 kernels do NOT support proprietary Custom Rom frameworks anymore. So if your Custom Rom did not implement the generic framework class framework-2.jar but his own naming convention, you will receive a boot loop. Do not cry about this here but advise your Custom rom cooker to fix this. I will not change this ever again.
The most prominent custom kernels for CM will follow the same approach (aligned between Yank555, Googy, LordBoeffla, Psndna, Temasek and me).
So please do pass this message along to your favorite ROM devs.
If they don't fix their rom, it won't be compatible with custom kernels any more!

Dualboot Faq:
For more detailed instructions, please take a look at this thread from RichMd (thank you for it):
Dualboot Faq thread
Important: if you want to use this kernel for dualboot, i highly recommend flashing my recovery as well.
General information about the recovery:
dualboot menu.
in this menu you can:
* create the secondary system partition (needed to be run once, if you want to install a second rom)
Install-zip menu:
you'll notice there is a new menu, where to select what you want to flash.
if you select kernel, rom or recovery, the zip gets installed as it is.
if you select zipt to pri./sec. filesystem, it is selfexplanary
if you select rom to secondary fs, the zip gets modified to install to the sec. fs. IF YOU WANT TO INSTALL IT TO PRIMARY FS LATER SOME TIME, YOU NEED TO REDOWNLOAD THE FILE!
if you select rom to primary filesystem, it gets installed there, and you can use the same zip later again.
How to install a second rom:
make sure you have already created ssecondary system partition! if not, go to dualboot menu and create it now (this may take some minutes)
The savest way is the way by using nandroids: if you don't have a nandroid already, create one now. Then just select your backup, and restore it to secondary filesystem.
you now should already be able to boot into primary or secondary rom (which are both the same now).
now you can install any other rom as primary.
if you want to install a new rom directly as secondary,
make sure there are no spaces in the filename!,
then just go to install zip. you'll notice there's a new menu at some point.
in this menu you can select where you want to install, and what type of file it is.
if you choose rom to sec. fs, your zip files itself gets modified to be installed to secondary fs. this may take a minute, because the files needs to get zipped again. Imporant: this file is permanently modified. if you think you need it later again, you should redownload it, because the modified one would always install as secondary.
installing a rom as primary, a zip to primary or zip to secondary fs, does not modify the zip.
Additional information:
roms coming with an aroma installer are hard to handle, as every dev can place own commands into it. It's impossible for me, to take care of every possibility. Because of this, it should be the best method, to flash a rom with aroma installer as primary one (and then move it to secondary, by using the nandroid method, if you want it to be secondary).

could someone please upload sammy 4.3 stock kernel? i want to build a seperate kernel for sprint, but i need the stock kernel for extracting some files before. thanks
My links to current devil stuff
New devil recovery with f2fs support for system and cache (data partition to come later). Note you dont need f2fs to use the recovery or kernel but you do need the kernel and recovery to use f2fs. If you convert to f2fs and want to use a different recovery then you must format file systems back to ext4 before changing. Bad things will happen if you do not convert before changing recoveries. Also the rom you are flashing must have an installer script setup for f2fs. I will be updating all my roms to support f2fs when I do their next releases.

It should but it is untested. Dual boot is just a special recovery that allows you to run two roms without flashing or nanding between the two.

I would need someone to try on cm11 or omnirom (generally any aosp rom), to know if the issue is caused by sammy initram files, or the main init file.

*** DISCLAIMER ***
I work on projects that may brick your device. Don't sue me, hate me or try and kill my dog if that happens. I will feel bad the community will feel bad and hopefully we'll find a way to get you going again. But, the very nature of my projects involves a certain amount of risk taken by YOU. And by using the projects that I work on, you've accepted that fact.
WARNING #1: CURRENTLY THERE IS AN UNKNOWN ISSUE WHERE IF YOU HAVE ENCRYPTION ENABLED AND INSTALL SS IT BOOTLOOPS. IF YOU FIT THIS DESCRIPTION PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM SAFESTRAP FOR NOW.
USEFUL LINK OF TW ROMS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616221
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
v3.72 (NB1): Beta testing, no rom-slots
v3.71 (MK2): Debugging some rom-slot issues
v3.65 (TW4.2): Stable
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 2.6.3.0 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots (2 on the S4 due to partition size and internal space) for flashing ROMs. These ROM-slots allow for 3 different sizes of /data partitions: 1GB, 2GB and 3GB. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
For more information you can read up here:
http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/how-to-safestrap/
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
Requirement: Allow APK install from Unknown Sources
Download the Safestrap APK
Find the APK using a Filemanager tool and open it on your device, then click "Install".
(If updating from an existing Safestrap you might be warned that this will over-write the existing installation. Click the "Yes" equivalent to this message.)
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application as you would any other app.
Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
That's it for the installation! Read below for a brief overview of Safestrap Recovery v3.x
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press under the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting.
By "under", I mean on the touch key portion of the front display on either side of the center button.
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Go into your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
THEN, open a "file explorer" of some sort (even TW "My Files" will work)
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK
Grant SU access
Use the "Install Recovery" button
All set, now you can reboot and re-activate whatever rom-slot you were using
KNOWN ISSUES:
[v3.72] ROM-SLOTs aren't supported yet
[v3.72] "Reboot Recovery" doesn't work in the APK?
NEW TO v3.72:
TWRP 2.7.0.x update for the base recovery. This includes vibration support, backup time/date fixes and more.
ROM-SLOTs now have a 16gb size limit (vs 4gb previously) [THEY DON'T WORK YET IN KK THO SO BE PATIENT]
DOWNLOADS:
CONFIRM THAT YOU ARE USING AN AT&T SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 (NOT THE ACTIVE MODEL)
MAKE SURE IF YOU ARE UPGRADING TO v3.7x FROM v3.65 THAT YOU USE THE "UNINSTALL RECOVERY" BUTTON IN THE v3.65 APK BEFORE INSTALLING v3.7x.
NOTE: USE ONLY ROMS THAT MATCH UP WITH YOUR TOUCHWIZ VERSION. IF YOU'RE ON MK2 THEN ONLY USE ROMS BASED ON MK2 AND IF YOU'RE ON MF3 ONLY USE ROMS BASED ON MF3

rm -rf /system/etc/safestrap
rm /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
ln -s /firmware/image/q6.mdt /system/etc/firmware/q6.mdt
mount -o remount,ro /system
As of version 3.6x, Safestrap Recovery is now based on TWRP 2.6.3.x. For more on TWRP you can visit their website: http://www.teamw.in/
WARNING: Safestrap is heavily modified to be "Safe" for your device. Do not download TWRP from their website and expect it to work the same way. Also TWRP does not support Safestrap, tho some issues that may come up will be TWRP dependant, please try and contact myself or look on the forums for your device for answers before hunting down TWRP people. They won't be able to help w/ Safestrap specific questions.

Add the MF3 kernel module .zip to the "Downloads" section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=680#downloads
Keep this on your SD card and flash it to the ROM-slot AFTER flashing a rom.
This will update your kernel modules to match the MF3 kernel and restore function to: wifi, bluetooth, gps etc.

Can I flash performance mods zips only on slot 1 like killjoy or flyon mod etc? Or no because the stock kernel doesn't have init.d support?
Edit: as long as you flash to slot 1-4 everything will be safe. .. currently using darth stalker rom and that has init.d support, no issues at the moment.

So I've searched and searched, but can't seem to find a clear answer and I want to make sure of this before I try.
My "stock" ROMs are always CM-based 4.3 ROMs (haven't used TW in awhile). I got my S4 when it was still MDL so my qfuse isn't blown - so my intended use for this is only for the additional ROM slots. I have gathered that, at least for now, the only ROMs we can flash to the additional slots have to be TW or GPE 4.2.2. But my question is, does my primary ROM also have to meet that description? Or can I keep my 4.3 AOSP ROM as my primary?

Hello,
I flashed the GEP rom to Rom Slot 1 and now I am getting an error that says Kernel Fail; System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help. There is a yellow triangle.
I followed the instructions, but now have a hosed phone unless I can somehow restore the backup of my stock rom.
Any information would be helpful.
Thanks for your efforts.

What GPE rom did u flash?? did u flash the kernel module zip??
Welcome to the Samsung Galaxy Ace II x / GT-S7560M Unofficial FAQ!
-The Galaxy TREND GT-S7560 is also supported-
==>THIS IS AN OUTDATED PHONE AND THE LINKS/FILES BELOW MAY OR MAY NOT BE THERE ANYMORE<==
!!SEE POST #2 BELOW FOR LINKS
Frequently Asked Questions:
1- "Flash with CUSTOM RECOVERY (TWRP/CWM)" : If you still have the stock recovery, download and use Daver18qc's Root Kit Below to install a custom recovery from the CUSTOM RECOVERIES header in post #2.
2- "Flash with ODIN" : ODIN is inside Daver18qc's Root Kit *With Detailed Instructions* below.
3- "Push with ADB" : You need to download and install Android's Development Kit and then refer to the small tutorial below !
4- If you've got problems with ODIN or ADB, make sure that you have USB Debugging Enabled under Settings > Developer Options.
--Make sure you have only 1 device showing in ODIN (Only 1 little square filled at the top-left)
--Also make sure Kies.exe is not running on the computer!
5- There are custom ROMs, such as CyanogenMOD 10 and 11, OmniROM 4.4, and more. There is no Lollipop ROM just yet, though it is slowly being worked on. A lot of work is needed to update our device code for Lollipop. You can find links to different custom ROMs for our device in post #2.
6- There is NO free method to UNLOCK SIM yet.
7- If you want to flash any deodexed rom with a custom recovery, you must first flash the complete corresponding ROM from SamMobile. That means deodexed Guatemala need to be flashed over Guatemala, not over Panama or Canada. Same goes for deodexed Australia.
8- If you get a Yellow warning triangle on boot after flashing something, use TriangleAway to remove it and reset the flash counter to 0. (On the page, use the provided TriangleAway apk file available for download at the bottom of the first post)
9- Flashing a ROM from Guatemala or Australia will not change your service provider, you will stay with Bell/Koodo/Rogers even if these companies don't exist in Guatemala.
10- Sometimes when flashing ROMS, your carrier will show as "Bell" even though you are on Virgin / Solo, this is normal as these are 2 sub-companies of Bell.
11- When you flash ANYTHING with a custom recovery, be sure to Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache (advanced menu) before rebooting.
12- For ANY kind of flashing from a Windows computer, you will need the Samsung USB Drivers first and foremost, before doing anything else. If you're on Linux/Ubuntu, install Heimdall and search for tutorials for how to use it on XDA or Google.
13- If you have the Galaxy Trend GT-S7560 and CWM freezes while flashing a custom rom, then re-cook the rom inside the Kitchen with these tweaks:
Code:
For galaxy trend s7560
When building rom in kitchen, select Interactive Mode(1). after zipaling;
1. edit META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script in working folder and change " format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p16"); " to " format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p16", "0", "/system"); "
2. extract cm11 for ace 2x and replace META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary from cm11 to your rom

How to flash with ODIN :
-If your ROM is zipped, unzip it to a folder until you got a ".TAR.MD5" file
-Load up ODIN
-Shutdown your Phone
-Boot your Phone in Download Mode
-Plug in your USB cable, Odin should recognize the Phone and fill up a small square at the top left.
-Make sure only "F.Reset Time", "Auto Reboot" and "PDA" are check-marked in ODIN
-Load up your ".TAR.MD5" in the PDA section of ODIN
-Flash, wait for ODIN to tell you (Succeeded : 1, Failed : 0)
-Done.
How to flash CM11 (CyanogenMod11) by Alex150892 :
1.Install Australia MH3 stock rom with Odin
2.Download Root Kit and follow instructions inside (follow it carefully from beginning to the end)
3.Open cwm recovery and Wipe data/cache,and also wipe dalvik cache
4.Install CyanogenMod 11
5.Install 4.4 Gapps
6.(optional) Install ba2x kernel for CyanogenMod 11
7.Reboot and enjoy...
Note that first boot will take a while,so leave it for ~10mins

------CUSTOM ROMS-------
Note: None of the custom ROMs are bug-free. Some of them are more stable and bug-free than others though. Some common bugs among all the ROMs are lack of full camera resolution (the rear camera only captures images at 3MP instead of the 5MP in Stock ROM) and lack of bluetooth (our chipset doesn't support the newer bluetooth method used in Android 4.2+).

------STOCK ROMS-------
(These are compatible with ALL countries and should be flashed if you want the latest version of ICS on your phone, regardless of where you live or who your phone service provider is.)
Stock firmwares from Sammobile
[URL="http://www.sammobile.com/forum/register.php"]You Must register on SamMobile by clicking here first! (FREE)[/URL]
Modified stock firmware "Stock II X Plus" by Codename13. It is deodexed, rooted, has init.d functionality, has ADB support, doesn't overwrite your custom recovery with the stock one, and other misc. changes, plus it shouldn't trigger the triangle flash counter.
If you install a stock ROM/firmware over a custom ROM and you get a bootloop, meaning you probably forgot to wipe data, and you're unable to boot to recovery, flash this package (by Codename13) with Odin to wipe your data partition, which should allow you to boot into the stock ROM.

BA2X (Better Ace 2 X) 2.0 for Stock ROM by Codename13 UNSUPPORTED
SeannyM's Overclocked/Modded Kernels For Stock ROM(Flash with CUSTOM RECOVERY) UNSUPPORTED (I think)
[/B]-A vast range of frequencies to choose from, you can start with 1094mhz and if your phone is stable and doesn't reboot on it's own you can then go up a couple more until you get to a point where your phone won't boot, then you need to go back down in frequencies.
Most people seem to hit a wall around 1248mhz.
-To take full advantage of this Kernel, you should install No-Frills CPU Control
--Set the maximum frequency to the maximum possible
--Set the minimum to 240 or 320
--Set the governor to SmartAssV2
--Set the I/O sheculer to VR

Dsixda's KITCHEN
You can deodex and customize almost any ROM made for this phone using this version of the Kitchen.
You will need a computer running Linux, either on the hard drive or in a virtual machine inside Windows.
You will need extensive knowledge of the Linux commands as everything is inside a terminal (a kind of MS-DOS command prompt)
If you don't know what Linux is, don't bother, this is out of your reach and nobody will teach you here.
Learn it somewhere else and come back here when you know where you're going with this.
DOWNLOAD 0.223 KITCHEN
DOWNLOAD EDIFY_DEFS FILE
-(The EDIFY_DEFS file is necessary to make a working ROM, you will softbrick your phone if you don't put this file inside your edify-defs folder in the kitchen folder.)
MANY THANKS TO : SeannyM, jonypx09, Codename13, OstrichX and all the others who made this possible!

i searched and search for hours yesterday.. found that one post above
and pretty much nothing else.. the huge 240 page 7560m thread has people asking every second page.. no joke
more info needs to be given about this. and maybe some research on how to do it for free.. but in the mean time:
i took a chance and got it.. and was not disappointed at all (works just like youtube vid)
btw im just a frustrated end user, not affiliated with any company
I would like to download this: Daver18qc's Deodexed/Rooted Australia ROM (Latest 24sept2013) but the DropBox download link isn't working...

Hi!
Thanks for pointing out where...

Im assuming this is the one im looking for
Galaxy Ace IIx GT-S7560M PGU S7560MUBAMG2
Unfortunately, the links on that site seem broken too... unless its me and i cant get them to work...
looking with the code "S7560MUBAMG2" i found a version PBS, CPA and TCP (panama, panama and mexico), all three have the same build date and change list numbers (05.07.2013 and 1230914)...
im downloading PBS version, its a 532mb file, is that right?... no wonder the device sucks that much... that image is bigger than the stock for my the TF300t... this **** is bloated
is this the same image as guatemala?
Can't seem to find the PGU anywhere... all links are to hotfile (which seems dead) or broken
thanks anyway...
i wanted to test the slimbean rom but guess i'll have to wait a while then...
the device is slow, but rather have a slow phone than a bricked one for not following the procedure right

AIUI, you don't need to use MG2. Try the third link (XSA) which will give you three options to download the MH3 firmware for Australia. That has three working download links.

You did it, since flashing with CWM puts the SUPERUSER program inside the phone. So if you have that, then you have indeed flashed with CWM, because it is the only way to flash the root package!
The instructions in the root kit apply to any other update/package that you want to flash with CWM.

@mertonv:
Use Australia MH3 instead. SAMMOBILE got their hosting server shut down so the links for stock firmware are invalid, but they are supposed to get fixed soon, i hope.
EDIT: The Australia Stock ROM link works at the moment, maybe you didn't LOG IN / REGISTER on SAMMOBILE before trying to download and that's why you don't see anything, but at this time, it works !
Bluetooth and Camera still broken/buggy?
Can anyone confirm that there isn't a custom ROM (10.2 or 11) where there are issues with Bluetooth and the camera? I know the FAQ says there are issues but that was in October.
Service
Since flashing CM 10.2, I haven't been able to get service and if somehow I manage I only get it temporarily. Can someone explain as to why?
Downloading Australia MH3
When I go to download file, it takes me to http://terafile.co/5d8b16638748 and the problem is the download link isn't working for me. I do the captcha and everything but when it does to download it just doesn't want to download.

It's been tested and it's safe, aside from the extremely slim risk of bricking your device while using Triangle Away (but I've never heard of anybody doing this). Chainfire hosts a free version here on XDA, although being free, it doesn't include every feature. But it works well enough.

If you are indeed using an Ace 2, we can't help you. This thread is one of the few for the Galacy Ace II X, a completely different device, other than similiar sounding names.
Speaking of BLN, I remember having recently seen an app that mimicks it very well. I'll message you if I remember what it was called.
For the BA2X 2.0, I'm working on implementing BLN in the kernel along with some other things. Our devices don't have the same kernel, but I could possibly create a universal BLN diff for others. I'm trying to diff a BLN module source for the Galaxy R and Captivate, so hopefully I can get it working.

So is the Kitkat update still being worked on or not? You say its being worked on in the first post but later say he's stopped. Also, are the bugs listed in black from flashing to Jelly Bean?
And lastly, can I use the Ace 2 GT-I8160 method of getting Kitkat for my ace 2x?

You're using an Ace 2 GT-I8160? This thread is for Galaxy Ace II X GT-S7560M. The two devices are completely different. The only reason that us Ace II X users use the Ace 2 forums is because the names are somewhat similiar. However, don't let that similiarity ruse you.
any kitkat?
Any chance that kitkat makes its way to this phone?...
If it were too... which stock should i load to my phone to be compatible with that?
Which custom rom on jb is the least buggy right now?
Thanks!

MultiSystem is a powerful tool and can perform potentially dangerous and/or destructive operations on your device and data that may affect your life. While it is unlikely to do irreversable damage to your device, it is not impossible, and you should proceed with caution. Loss of data and/or the need to re-flash a full stock (manufacturer-supplied) firmware IMGs (usually requiring a computer) is always a possibility, and is increasingly likely if you do not know what you are doing. It is possible to lose root access when using MultiSystem on locked-bootloader devices running unexpoitable (bu rooted) Android firmware, without careful reading of documentation or following the instructions. Please consult with expert users before performing actions you do not comprehend.

If you go to LP, you will loss xposed no matter what. There is no way to root 4.4.4 or 5.0 sadly.

On a VZW S4 I can install MultiSystem, but I must make a symbolic link for it to function correctly. Also, using the verbose option as you suggest results in an error, but it works fine without it.
I can reboot to a virtual slot from the app, and I've confirmed with "MultiSystem status" that I am running on a virtual system. Switching between Stock and virtual works fine from within the app, however, when I am booting normally, I see no green LED, thus no indication of when to press vol.up/vol.down/home.
I am going to install FlashFire and attempt flashing a rom in the virtual slot now.
UPDATE:
From the virtual system, I flashed Empty Galaxy rom with FlashFire. This resulted in an error message at boot saying unofficial software was installed, and it would not boot. I flashed the nc5 kernel back with Odin and it booted successfully to the new rom. I checked, and it certainly was running on the virtual system. I had to remake the symbolic link to MultiSystem. I tried several different ways to get back to the Stock system, but was unsuccessful until I disabled the virtual systems. Then it booted into the Stock slot but android.process.acore and android.process.media relentlessly FC; eventually resulting in a reboot. I am going to attempt again starting from rooted NK1 as stock.

That's great! Could you please post more info: Device, OS version, kernel version, ... etc
It seems that it works for you, but you should install compatible ROMs without installing unauthorized kernels & the updater-script in the ROM .ZIP should mount /system correctly as mentions in the Q&A section (don't mount the phyical system partition; remount the current system!). The LED indicator might need some debugging, but you can boot the stock system if you removed the microSD, for now.

The rom I was starting from and trying to go to were both debloated Stock NK1 across-the-board on an VZW S4. I made sure /system was mounted correctly in updater-script. I also eventually figured out I could remove the SD card after various different attempts. Shortly I will try from Lollipop, and see if that solves anything, like the LED indicator or the binary getting linked appropriately.
EDIT: NK1 is 4.4.2.
Have you heard anything from @muniz_ri about the VZW S4 that could be useful?

No, you'll need to flash the modem but the modem is optional
Hi lenny ! I am very interesting in the way you proceed to achieve your custom rom, because i have the same project : what did you use ?

I also made my own Deodexed Stock rom. . . and GPS is also not working, it's a firmware issue with deodexing maybe, when i used odexed it worked fine.

Agreed my perfect version of TW would be dark, all bloatware removed and odexed.
I've moved away from MM and back to LL but i do miss the darkness lol.
I don't know how hard it would be to create such a ROM, I'm a user, a tinkerer and definitely not a ROM developer ?
A question if i may...
What about "build.prop"? Has it been modified?
I'd need original build.prop file to be able install and run specific apps, which won't work on custom ROMS.
Thanks!

If you're interested, I've made a stock odexed, rooted, debloat (562Mb) with custom kernel and S7 UI.
For the full dark ui I don't know how to make it for now, I develop these rom alone so don't be in a hurry
