Source Code: https://github.com/LiquidRemix
ROM OS Version: 9.x Pie
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
ROM Firmware Required: Lollipop compatible
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2018-12-10
Last Updated 2019-12-26

Installation
Required for installation: Recovery - Latest version of TWRP - 3.2.3-0
If you require a LOKI-patched version of TWRP, try this version patched by @mattgyver.
Firmware - Lollipop supporting bootloader and modem / non-hlos. Look in _Bon_Bon's great MODEMS and BOOTLOADERS collection.
The following are "best practice" recommendations for installation, you may be successful using your own routine.
1st install - " clean install "
Make a full nandroid backup <always backup!>.
** OPTIONAL Properly remove previous root solution (recommended - flash Magisk uninstaller and UnSU). **
Fully wipe device (At least system, cache, dalvik and data. Recommended - fully clean by wiping internal and external SD).
Make sure your partitions are formatted as EXT4. Do not use F2FS on pie.
Install Rom.
Install desired root solution. (recommended - Magisk).
Install Gapps (Pico or larger).
DO NOT Wipe cache and art / dalvik (rom is partially pre-deodexed).
Reboot.
Wait for 1st boot.
Enjoy.
2nd and subsequent installs - " dirty flash "
** OPTIONAL Uninstall all Substratum overlays ** .
Make a full nandroid backup <always backup!>.
Properly remove previous root solution (recommended - flash Magisk uninstaller and UnSU).
Wipe system, cache and art / dalvik (wiping system is ESSENTIAL for Magisk).
Install Rom.
Install desired root solution. (recommended - Magisk).
Install Gapps (Pico or larger).
DO NOT wipe cache and art / dalvik (rom is partially pre-deodexed).
Reboot.
Wait for app optimisation.
Enjoy.
While dirty flashing may be possible for some updates, be prepared that progress means you will occasionally need to clean install updates (usually when settings files are changed)!
Nandroid backups are your friend!

Current issues
Release 07
This rom is a nice combination of Aosp lightness and comprehensive customisation options.
This rom should get a couple of public releases per month, more if you are in our Slack team.
It has even more of @side OptLos super smooth speed optimisations applied…. - It's super smooth!.
Installs about 850 meg in system before gapps
Doesn't work
Casting
MHL video
Does work
BT calling.
SE Linux is set as permissive.
Wifi is working well.
Hotspot may have problems on version 06 / 07 - confirmation needed / logs needed????? Nobody reads this obviously.
GPS is great.
Make sure your partitions are formatted as EXT4. Do not use F2FS on pie.
Not sure if CDMA phones work??
Magisk 19.0 works fine. Flash the zip after romfile. Once in android you may need to install MagiskManager APK if it is not present.
Magisk sound mods appear to work e.g. ViperFX.
Substratum uses OMS and the keyfile is now builtin for this is Now built into the rom.
To get pie home button gestures enable "navbar" in extensions, then "swipe up on home button" in gestures.
Sound changes may mean older sound mods no longer work.
The google sound app may crash if updated to version 2, leave as version 1.
This rom will not work / will never work on i9515, i9500 and i9506 variants of S4.

Reporting bugs
Proper reporting of issues will help me spend time productively fixing bugs rather than tail chasing vague issues.
Please follow these guidelines.
Reporting bugs
If you wish to report an issue, then the onus is on you to prove the issue.
If you provide exact replication instructions, an idea of how often the issue occurs and logs that enable me to replicate the issue then a fix will be possible ("if you do action 1 then action 2 then action 3 you will find that bug X occurs 100% of the time").
If you give a vague complaint about an issue then I will not look at it without explicit replication instructions and preferably logs ("phone overheats when using game XYZ").
Issues about overheating, battery life or performance should be backed up with information from relevant monitoring apps.
One-off issues generally do not get investigated unless they are well documented and have provided logs.
Issues that are specific to one piece of software will generally not get investigated without logs. I am not very keen on installing software to investigate bugs, especially if I need to create user accounts. If you can replicate the issue on more than one piece of software it will increase the chance of being fixed.
Issues to do with speaker or microphone related issues need to be explicit about which speaker and mic is in use (internal, head phones, earphones, bluetooth headset, Bluetooth speakers), whether normal earpiece or hands free mode is in use, Audio mods that have been installed. Logs may be helpful too.
Issues with media / streaming / playback should be provided with examples.
A picture is worth a thousand words; a movie is thousands of pictures. If you cannot describe your problem in words, post pictures or movies to help show your issue. The rom has in-built screen capture and screen recording tools, so please use them.
It can often be difficult to tell what is going on with logs from a fully loaded system. It can help if you make a nandroid of your current system, format and then make a clean install, with gapps only if needed, and only the app that causes the issue - as minimal a system for replication as possible - then replicate the bug and capture logs. If I then have to replicate the issue I can easily replicate your system.
If you want to send logs for a bug, I would like you to use Syslog.
Perform some of the functionality that is bugged and then capture logs in the app.
If you have had a reboot then capture a set of logs immediately when the system reboots. If the last-kmsg file is empty then the logs are useless.
Type a brief description of the problem in the notes field and your XDA username .
Select to scrub personal information.
Upload it to a web based host (gdrive, dropbox, etc.) and PM the link to me.
And remember:The Drill ....

What is AOSP?
AOSP is Android as Google publish without other modifications. More or less AOSP is the Nexus devices stock rom without gapps. Anyway to get a working system me and @-+BB+- added some changes from CyanogenMod. We added also some non-AOSP features like init.d support, @alucard_24 kernel for better performance and energy saving, STweaks for advanced kernel settings and support for Over-The-Air updates through a dedicated app (OTA Updates). Maybe something else from us might be added, but please do not ask for features to be added because we're not going to add more to keep this ROM small, fast and pure.

TWRP Recovery v2.8.7.0 with F2FS management support: AndroidFileHost
Installation
TWRP Recovery v2.8.7.0 is suggested for installation
Devices supported: I9505, I9507, I9508, I545, R970, I337, M919, L720. (I9515 and I9500 are not supported).
AT&T and Verizon users: since your bootloader is locked, you must be on the UCUAMDB or UCUAMDL bootloader if you own an AT&T phone, otherwise if Verizon you must be on the VRUAMDK bootloader in order to use this ROM. Do getprop ro.bootloader in Terminal Emulator or through ADB shell to find out which bootloader you have
First time or clean install:
Download the ROM from the link above
Download GApps package for Lollipop 5.1
Put the zip files on your SDCard
Reboot in Recovery
Wipe Data / Factory Reset
Optional: convert to F2FS
Select "Install zip from SDCard"
Choose AOSP zip file
Choose GApps zip file
Reboot system
Update from a previous build:
Via OTA Updates:
Open OTA Updates app
Download the update
Press "Install"
Your device will automatically reboot and install the update.
Manual update with TWRP:
Download updated build from the link above
If you do not have the Gapps package, download Open GApps
Put the zip files on your SDCard
Reboot in TWRP Recovery
Wipe /cache and dalvik-cache
Select "Install zip from SDCard"
Choose AOSP zip file
Choose GApps zip file
Reboot system
We don't have a backup/restore GApps script yet. When you update /system is formatted, so you need to reflash GApps package too. In case you don't do it, Google Apps will fail in endless force closes after boot.
First boot after install/update takes a while, wait at least 5 minutes for it to boot.
To convert cache, data and system partitions to F2FS look in post below.

Tips
To enable Developer options go in Settings->About device and press "Build number" for 7 consecutive times.
Using F2FS
What it is? Wikipedia
To use it you should first convert your EXT4 partitions through recovery, before installing this ROM.
On PhilZ:
Wipe and format options->custom format options->toggle ext4 f2fs migration
Format data and data/media->f2fs (Warning: internal storage is formatted, make a backup of your personal data before doing this!)
Format system->f2fs
On TWRP:
Download and install this TWRP version: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763625
Wipe->advanced wipe
Select data->change or repair file system->f2fs (Warning: internal storage is formatted, make a backup of your personal data before doing this!)
Select cache->change or repair file system->f2fs
Select system->change or repair file system->f2fs
Now you can install this ROM following installation steps in post above

Some screenshots

Thanks for the new ROM!
Good luck!

Waw! The first one! Congratulations! :good:
That's what we call a great Team!

This development was started 2 months ago from @-+BB+- that has done a great job... then his coming to JDCTeam has bring his project in the Team workflow... all our devs has given a shot to the code, so is the real first common project... we hope you will enjoy it, taking care that this is the initial release, so as reported by us, there are still bugs to be fixed.
Aosp sources from Google are for different hardware, and this requires modifications and changes to let it works.
Thanks for your attention.

So far so good with gravity box. But my ringtone doesn't sound, and I don't have an extSdCard installed. I know you guys don't support xposed but I don't think xposed is the problem.

OMG YES! Finally a Lollipop AOSP ROM for our S4! I've literally been waiting for someone to make it for a while. Thank you!

SuoerSU Corrupted
@AntaresOne
The SuperSU in the RomHut Link is Corrupted, As it's Displaying 5.79KB only !

Looks gteat so far ?

These are both issues mentioned in the op - you probably don't have your ext sd card formatted to fat32 which is why you can't see it, and you probably haven't rebooted yet which means sound is likely affected.
Enjoy the new ROM and remember this is only the first release of this very clean AOSP source
This first build is so good - imagine what the future development is going to be like.

YES YES YES!!! I've used pure AOSP roms since Jelly Bean, I was so disappointed when the dev didn't do Lollipop. Now my prayers have been answered. Downloading this right away.
Just a suggestion, I think the OP should have a small guide to how to convert extSD to FAT32, just for the not so tech savvy

I dont have one installed. And my setup required me to reboot several times. But thanks.

so want to give this a try.
one thing though, i'd like to ask anybody who flashed this, just in case, since this is pure aosp.
taskbar battery icon. does it have a setting for text? or do i have to live with the battery icon?
thanks!

You can install this, enable percentage and uninstall
I want to tell anyone that even if development started two months ago this ROM isn't yet ready for daily use for anyone. If you can't live without bugs do not flash it.
I can say that now it's more for experienced users rather than anyone
We'll tell you when it's ready, thank you for the attention.

thanks for the fast reply.
unfortunately link says "We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server."
but i will take your advice and go back to the optimised builds for now
i know you said you want to keep this as close to AOSP as possible, but would you consider implementing a few things into this ROM?
you know, casual stuff like the battery percentage, or quick settings pull down method, or a fancy reboot screen.
kinda like what Kryten2k35 did with the 5.0.1 GPE.
that doesn't have all the bells and whistles of CM, but it has some of the sensible, useful stuff built in, that the users would ultimately probably install themselves sooner or later.
anyhow, much intrigued by this new project, will be waiting for the moment you deem it safe for use

I'll try. Thanks JDCTeam. See you around here.

VERIZON USERS: since your bootloader is locked, you must be on the VRUAMDK bootloader.Do 'getprop ro.bootloader' in Terminal Emulator or through ADB shell to find out which bootloader you have.
TWRP
You are REQUIRED to be using TWRP 3.2.3-0 to be able to flash any Pie rom.
If your device does not have an updated relevant version then you can use the standard JFLTE version.
If you have a device with a locked but exploitable bootloader as above (AT&T + Verizon) then use the Loki-patched version.
UNSUPPORTED DEVICES
GT-I9515 is not / will never be supported (slightly different hardware)

Latest official TWRP Recovery v3.2.3-0 for JFLTE Loki-patched by @mattgyver: HERE.
Other variants may require a different recovery. 
INSTALL
Move any files you want to keep to PC - or you will lose them !
Make sure you are using the unofficial JDC version of TWRP above. Earlier versions will give Updater process ended with ERROR: 7.
Download the Optimized LineageOS rom , root solution and a Gapps 8.1 package (nano / pico or larger) for arm
Move the Optimized LineageOS rom, root solution and Gapps package to external storage
Boot into recovery mode (hold volume UP, HOME, and POWER button for 1 second after vibrate)
Wipe > advanced wipe > select (enable / tick) for Dalvik / Art Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache
Swipe to wipe at bottom of screen
Back to main start screen
Wipe > format data
Type ‘yes’ and press blue checkmark at the bottom-right corner
Back to main start screen and select Install to install rom, root solution, Gapps and Aroma.
DO NOT wipe cache / dalvik / art after flashing as this rom is pre-deodexed
Reboot System! Enjoy!
Once first boot is completed you can safely move your files back to Internal Storage
NOTICE:
First boot after an install / update takes a while, wait at least 5 - 10 minutes for it to boot.
Phone will be hot / slow after first boot as dex optimisation of your apps occurs and media catalog is built of your audio / video files.
If the LED stops flashing and goes solid with any color then SuperSU did not correctly trigger the reboot. You can either pull the battery -OR- hold down the power button for 15 seconds till the led / screen goes blank, then let go of the power button. Then after another 4 seconds it will automatically boot and vibrate and everything is 100% normal. It only happens that one time on a new Rom install with SuperSU.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JDC aroma flashable addon
This is an optional addon that needs flashed through TWRP after rom, SU and gapps.
Download from HERE.
It contains working tested versions of:Adaway, Arise, AudioFX, Bromide, Buffcore Aduitor, Eleven, Google Camera, Magisk, Magisk Uninstaller, Mixplorer, Snap, Toolbox, YT Vanced, Wallpaperpicker
The Buffcore branded version of kernel auditor is the full version. It has a settings page for boeffla wakelock blocker editing and a spectrum switcher page, so no longer need spectrum app, and other JF specific tweaks.

Current issues


BT calling from headsets or cars MAY not work now. Stay tuned.
Wifi uses the region set in your phone sim, if you don't have a sim your region may get incorrectly set. See here

Since ROM supports all (SuperSU,native root,magisk) JDCToolbox is coming as a flashable depending on your root method.Download the one that fits you

Some notes from me:
Use opengapps 8.x and ARM ..not ARM64
Ledify custom pattern
Some notes about ledify. In case u need some "hardcore" edits or even create your own ledify patterns
here is a small tutorial:
at /system/bin/ledify the script exists.
as you can see at line 236 , the default pattern is the 'heartbeatblue'.
your options are:
disabled)
heartbeatblue)
heartbeatgreen)
heartbeatred)
jdcdefault)
nexus)
nexusreverse)
police)
secdefault)
if u want to create a new one do this :
go to line 70 and add a function with the name u want.lets say OPTCM
Code:
OPTCM() {
//write your routine here as the others.
}
now go to RUN() and add
Code:
optcm) OPTCM;;
finally go to final lines where it says
Code:
# Default
PATTERN=heartbeatblue
and change it to
Code:
# Default
PATTERN=optcm
save the file and u r ready.
For better results u better go to twrp,mount the system partition,take the ledify file to your pc,edit it and push it again back to it's location.

dynamic file syncing - early_suspend and dyn_fsync by default;
boeffla wakelock blocker;
print to dmesg log when a suspend gets broken;
Printing broken suspends to dmesg.log - you can check the dmesg.log file to see what is waking your device from suspend. Using SYSLOG, grep the dmesg for "active wakeup source" to see if you get any reports. Alarmtimer here is OK, other WLs are worth checking, then possibly adding to the blocked WL list if deemed safe.
Wakelock blocker : the following WLs are blocked by default -
Code:
qcom_rx_wakelock; wlan; wlan_wow_wl; wlan_extscan_wl; netmgr_wl;
NETLINK; IPA_WS; [timerfd]; wlan_ipa; wlan_pno_wl; wcnss_filter_lock;
_rx_wake; wlan_ctrl_wake; wlan_wake; qbt_wake_source
you can also ADD more yourself if needed to the following user file in ROOT
/sys/class/misc/boeffla_wakelock_blocker/wakelock_blockerThis will be a list delimited by ; semicolon and no-spaces. WLs should be exact case you find them.
So an example addon file would be
Code:
mmc2_detect;PowerManagerServiceWakelocks;msm_hsic_host
The wakelock blocker may give absolutely no difference to your battery life in suspend - It will only help if your issues are wakelock based. Monitor the log file for any broken suspends for a few nights, look them up in google to see what they are (some wakelocks are not safe to remove) then try adding any identified wakelocks to the user file.

ROM OS Version: 9.x Pie
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
ROM Firmware Required: Lollipop compatible
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2018-11-13
Last Updated 2020-05-17

InstallationRequired for installation: Recovery - Latest version of TWRP - 3.2.3-0
If you require a LOKI-patched version of TWRP, try this version patched by @mattgyver.
Firmware - Lollipop supporting bootloader and modem / non-hlos. Look in _Bon_Bon's great MODEMS and BOOTLOADERS collectionThe following are "best practice" recommendations for installation, you may be successful using your own routine.
1st install - " clean install "
Make a full nandroid backup <always backup!>.
** OPTIONAL Properly remove previous root solution (recommended - flash Magisk uninstaller and UnSU). **
Fully wipe device (At least system, cache, dalvik and data. Recommended - fully clean by wiping internal and external SD).
Make sure your partitions are formatted as EXT4. Do not use F2FS on pie.
Install Rom.
DO NOT Wipe cache and art / dalvik (rom is partially pre-deodexed).
Reboot.
Wait for 1st boot.
Run through Gapps setup.
** OPTIONAL Reboot back in to TWRP.
** OPTIONAL Install desired root solution (recommended - Magisk).
** OPTIONAL Do not clear caches, boot back into Android.
Enjoy.
2nd and subsequent installs - " dirty flash "
** OPTIONAL Uninstall all Substratum overlays **
Make a full nandroid backup <always backup!>.
Properly remove previous root solution (recommended - flash Magisk uninstaller and UnSU).
Wipe system, cache and art / dalvik (wiping system is ESSENTIAL for Magisk).
Install Rom.
Install desired root solution. (recommended - Magisk).
DO NOT wipe cache and art / dalvik (rom is partially pre-deodexed).
Reboot.
Wait for app optimisation.
Enjoy.
While dirty flashing may be possible for some updates, be prepared that progress means you will occasionally need to clean install updates (usually when settings files are changed)!
Nandroid backups are your friend!

Current issues
Release 12
This rom is as close as you will get to a stock Google Pixel style phone.
It is an unofficial version of Pixel Experience, so only report issues to this XDA thread, not Pixel Experience team.
Release 12 has even more @side OptLos super smooth speed optimisations applied…. - It's super smooth!.
Installs about 1.3 gb in system including gapps (** so WILL NOT WORK on i9505g / google version **)
System folder is re-sized to full 2.7gb.
Unified rom so should work on all S4 variants APART FROM i9505g DUE TO SIZE.
Remember this is an almost stock google pixel rom!
Gapps is already pre-installed and mandatory
DO NOT attempt to manually install any gapps package over the top, you will break it.
Don't work
MHL video (? we think ?)
Does work
Miracast / casting.
BT calling.
SE Linux is set as permissive.
Wifi is much improved.
Hotspot working.
GPS is great.
Make sure your partitions are formatted as EXT4. Do not use F2FS on pie.
CDMA phones work??
Magisk 19.3 works fine.
Magisk sound mods appear to work e.g. ViperFX.
Substratum works fine.
Sound changes may mean older sound mods no longer work.
The google sound app may crash, update to version 2.1.
This rom will not work / will never work on i9515, i9500 and i9506 variants of S4.

muehehehe <3 finally released .

Beautiful ROM, great work! Definitely a daily driver for me if Bluetooth will be fixed!

I was looking for a lot this rom, thanks to the developers.
Inconveniences: at the first power-up, my device became excessively hot to the point of burning the screen, and turned off only.
Remove the battery, and let it cool for 10 minutes, now it seems to work normal.
Still this I am a user of this type of ROM (pixel experience) on all my devices with twrp installed.
thanks again

Release 02 is now available - see:
post #1 for download link
post #2 for installation instructions
post #3 for changelist
post #4 for updated current issues
post#5 for bug reporting instructions
Dirty flashing should work fine.
BT calling is still broken, but release 03 will see it fixed as good progress is being made.
Hotspot may be broken for this build, sorry.
This build is much faster and smoother than release 01.

Current issues
Release 09
Not working
MHL output (? we think ?)
Working
Everything else.
Known issues
Google Sounds may crash, use v2.1.
Audio changes may mean older mods have stopped working. Progress unfortunately...
You may wish to disable ambient display if you want your battery to last any time.
This rom is no longer official, for the simple reason I cannot be bothered jumping through the official hoops. OTA will not work ever. It has been completely rebuilt since release 07 so must be clean installed
This rom will not work / will never work on i9515, i9500 and i9506 variants of S4.

first! oh wait.... can I really get first on my own thread?
anyhow.... we present for your delight and delectation - Resurrection Remix Pie 2.99_preview
2.99_preview??? What the F with your version numbers Buff?
Well I promised I would release V3 builds with February updates and working Bluetooth calling.
And next week we will indeed release versions of all our roms with February updates and the newly added JDC feature of working BT calling, but we couldn't resist a little preview, so hence 2.99_preview.
So expect a new build of this next week with February updates also.
But really it's stable, fast and tweakable and perfectly useable.
Did I mention BT calling LOL?

YAY another rom. Thank you @Buff99 and @side for your hardwork

congratz

Again and again and again.... We never stop

Another one with <3
Thanks guys specially for you Buff about this amazing work

@Buff99. Idk what to say, Thank You?? I feel like this is not enough.?
This was the first rom I ever used on my s4(probably got it around the end beginning of March.
I would love to test this rom very much since I haven't been on much after I got my s4 fixed.
See You on Slack. Can't wait for next release ??.

Welcome back again

After all these years...bluetooth calling is making a comeback?
Your ROM was and will always be my favorite one.

Thank you @buff for RR Pie. It's working fine, just two small things i recocnized:
1.. I'm missing the option to unlock the lockscreen by PIN without entering OK/Enter. I can't find this option in securitysettings nor the RR-settings
2. In RR-settings i get force close of settings app by choosing "System UI tuner" in UI settings
I did a clean install.

It's just because they fixed Bluetooth calling so it's just a preview for it before they bring it to the rest of their roms. @Buff99 I hop in correct. :silly:

Pretty much. Explained in post #6 I thought.....
We wanted to get something out with BT calling early, that's all that preview means... to let those people who must have BT calling available preview pie.
There is nothing wrong or cut back or pre-production about this rom. It's the real deal.

Thanks for the beautiful ROM @buff. I have a issue on bluetooth. I connected my phone with my Bluetooth speaker after a few moments Bluetooth automatically off and on and then Bluetooth crash.

Sorry for my bad English. Hope you can understand it. Thank you.

Yeah BT still has some issues we are working on, retry with v3 when it arrives.
The combined WiFi / BT chip is the most hideous thing ever, so much that Samsung even had to hack around it in original firmwares.
If you can disable WiFi before using BT you may find it more stable.

AICP
Android Ice Cold Project
AICP is known by everyone as the "Ice Cold Project" that started on a Desire HD years ago (2012)
and since then has evolved into a mature ROM with the BEST community that you can find!!!
Until Android Lollipop, the ROM has always been based on AOKP. Unfortunately, since AOKP stopped development (but made a comeback later), we changed our base to CM.
With the re-brand of CM to LineageOS (LOS) we became LineageOS based with some tweaks from AOSP and we are now based on the "Ground Zero Open Source Project" (GZOSP) for Android Pie.
If there are any bugs, either we will sort them out or the GZOSP team, if it concerns their code base. This ROM isn't GZOSP supported, so there is no need to report errors/bugs to them!!
Code:
[SIZE="4"]#include <jdc_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
* And other random stuff no-one reads.
*/[/SIZE]

All Variants with a locked bootloader are currently unavailable until the unified tree is further updated.
AT&T USERS: since your bootloader is locked, you must be on the UCUAMDB or UCUAMDL bootloader.
VERIZON USERS: since your bootloader is locked, you must be on the VRUAMDK bootloader.Do 'getprop ro.bootloader' in Terminal Emulator or through ADB shell to find out which bootloader you have.
TWRP
You are REQUIRED to be using TWRP 3.2.3-0 or newer to be able to flash any Pie rom.
If your device does not have an updated relevant version then you can use the standard JFLTE version.
If you have a device with a locked but exploitable bootloader as above (AT&T + Verizon) then use the Loki-patched version.

Current issues
Release 06
AICP returns.
This rom is as stable and as optomised as all the other JDC roms currently available. It is tweak-able yet stable and solid feeling.
Don't work
MHL video (? we think ?)
Does work
Miracast / casting.
BT calling.
SE Linux is set as permissive.
Wifi works well
Hotspot works well.
GPS is great.
Make sure your partitions are formatted as EXT4. Do not use F2FS on pie.
Magisk 19.3 works fine. Flash the zip after romfile. Once in android you may need to additionally install MagiskManager.
Magisk sound mods appear to work e.g. ViperFX.
Substratum works fine.
Quickstep launcher is modded with extra options - careful if using substratum themes as it can screw up if wrongly themed.
Recommended: try inbuilt theming options.
Sound changes may mean older sound mods no longer work.
The google sound app may crash, use version 2.1.
This rom will not work / will never work on i9515, i9500 and i9506 variants of S4.

wow amazing....you guys are on fire....thanks to all the team for the incredible hard work & dedication...

AICP has been running on my device consistently since the test version. It's incredibly stable and anything I try to do with my Ancient S4 works flawlessly. Thanks JDCTeam.

Fantastic rom - wow one! All works well! If some of possibilities to add advanced boot menu, or I can't find that. Thanks! I can't believe that you do that. I like it!

its in settings for hardwarebuttons, the first option. but its a translate mistake at german (maybe other language to. on german calls it "ein aus taste auf sperrbildschirm" but it has not to do with lockscreen, but it has less options that other roms has...

Inbuilt root didn't (and still doesn't) work.

Sadly I am blessed with one of those random i9505 S4's whose touchscreen stubbornly refuses to work after the screen fades to black. This is with all Pie-based ROMs and even with TWRP Recovery versions 3.2 and above! ROMs based on Nougat and earlier work flawlessly.
The phone hasn't otherwise locked up since the hard buttons still work, and if I connect a mouse with a USB-OTG cable I can regain control of the phone, but the touchscreen still won't work until the whole thing is rebooted.
Thanks to the aforementioned mouse I did capture a SysLog before and after the touchscreen stops responding. Not sure if Buff99 is the one to tell since this issue affects all Pie-Based ROMs on a few "unlucky" S4's, but I'm PM him anyway...

please stay tuned. we are fixing that LCD thing...
