I'm just about to install myself and check it out. I loved using this on my ipod touch, and can now share the love with my android. It seems like a good alternative to Xposed!
Update: So far been running without a hiccup. I installed Cydia Substrate and Winterboard and they work flawlessly. UI/UX of the the apps can use some polishing, but so can every initial release!
Not what I expected.

So I am an Apple fanboy lol (Although I've always loved Android too, just always had iPhones). So you can imagine my excitement when Winterboard came to the play store.
After I downloaded both substrate and Winterboard, I tried activating one of my Icon themes. After I hit "Restart Zygote" the phone rebooted like normal, but once it was back on, all my apps were crashing. I couldn't open anything. Once I restarted my phone, I was stuck in a boot loop. Tried everything I could but ended up having to re-flash stock firmware through ODIN.
I have used Winterboard on almost every iPhone I've ever owned. I upgraded from the iPhone 5 to the Galaxy S4. I have about 4 years of jailbreaking under my belt and have never had this happen with Winterboard. I'm 99% certain it was not user error, but I'm not ruling out that possibility.
Point is, I won't be using Winterboard for quite a while. Just wanted to let people know this boot loop is a possibility.
Too each their own lol. I went to android for a reason

I installed it. It works like xPosed but according to the dev you can hook native code not just java, and even hook native deamons. If it is useful devs wil use it to do things, if not just one more app I have on my phone.

For people having problems try this :
Google Play App Description said:
If, while using WinterBoard, you run into any problems (such as it crashes on boot, preventing your device from starting), please remember that Substrate has a safety feature built into it: you can hold your device's volume up button to temporarily disable Substrate so that WinterBoard is not loaded, and then your device boots correctly.

Yeah no that didn't work for me...the phone wasn't actually bootlooping, it just kept on booting into recovery mode. I'd actually rather it have bootlooped, in which case I could have used ADB to delete the lib file that loaded the substrate (or maybe the up-button fix would have had a chance to work).
Had to flash system img from Odin.

Just installing the apps didn't do anything harmful, it was when I went into the Substrate app and installed the framework (or whatever it is) and that's when the recovery loop started.
So you installed the framework within the app itself and it worked fine for you??

In the description it says it allows you to use the themes from the play store without using custom launchers. It also says that it works with virtually all if them. To me, that implies that any one you download can be used.
Although since it is very new on Android and doesn't work the same as on iOS, I could be completely wrong haha

Ad blocking will generally cause this issue. If you have ad blocking on your phone try disabling it or adding the ad urls to the whitelist of your ad blocking software.

when the cmd box comes up on the computer it says "wait for your device to finish booting up" but mine never reboots?
I can get into the bootloader, and into TWRP, but even after factory reset is keeps giving me this: android.process.acore has stopped
and I can't get past the "google & location" setup screen.

I didn't want to be the guy who gets all excited and posts the same damn question in three different forums. But now its been a day and a half, and I just got a call that's going to take me out of the country again next week, so I'd like to fix this sooner rather than later.
Rather than threadjack, perhaps I should make a new post? oh well, you asked!
This tablet is my second android device (I came from a TP2), and my first is a Moto DX2 with a locked bootloader. I have flashed roms and used the moto sbf process and even tinkered with radiocomm for the TBH 3G hotspot hack, but unlocked bootloaders and Samsung devices are new to me.
I unlocked and rooted fine, and then tried to use Wug's toolkit to flash the inverted apps (and didn't nandroid like a dummy). That's when things went south. The calendar worked, talk force closed, it duplicated the email app, but the inverted one force closed, and the people/contacts app is where I think things got really borked. The tablet is currently running, but the people app is totally missing. I can get into the bootloader, and into TWRP, and I've factory reset a few times but the issue remains. I thought flashing the factory image would be like the moto sbf process and bring me back to stock. It seems like the toolkit isn't flashing it though, because it never reboots, it just hangs at the bootloader.
After the initial flash of those apps it took me a while to get through setup, because that "android.process.acore has stopped" error kept occuring. After trying a while I finally fully booted and that's where I'm at now.
I have not previously used adb or the sdk, but again thought the toolkit would do it?
______________________________________________________________________
Edit: well I tried the mskip tool instead and that flashed the factory image just fine.
I had some wierdness with the play store disappearing after an update, but I just re-downloaded the apk and that seemed to solve that.
I've seen some hacks for a few of the other samsung phones that let you add other apps to the multi window view instead of just the built in apps. Just wondering if any one has found a way to do that on our mega 6.3 yet?
you need to be on deodexed rom, it will be easy to mod.
Ok, thank you. I'll wait for a deodexed stock rom to show up.
Still waiting for the ClockWorkMod recovery to work, then we'll be in business..
I kind of knew this coming into this phone as the dev community probably wouldn't be as large as the flag ship phones, but the phone has been really good so far with the exception of the headphone volume being very low.

Correct xposed allows you to install other things besides multi window mod. Also samsung has app called samsung multi pro or something similar to that. It will allow you to do the same but you have to pay for the app. I personally have no experience with it.

I got mine that working fine , you need only root your phone, install multi window manager from play store, it can let you add any apps you like
Yup, you are right. I tried that app when I first got the phone (after installing the root kernel) and it would keep giving me errors saying i wasn't rooted. I just tried the app again and it works perfectly. Thank you!

google has patched this on their server side and has sent a patch out manufactures, who should be pushing it out to carriers.
AFAIK the patch alone on google servers were more than enough needed to stop this from ever coming to light.
but as a caution, when installing an app outside the market (ie play, amazon) make sure it's a trusted source. If you're still at ease just dont sideload apps. apps coming from the market will be scanned and made sure they dont exploit this.
hope this helps put your mind at ease a little.

I installed the app and enabled it. Now my Note II is boot looping. Phone will boot to lock screen, and a few seconds after I unlock, it will hang and reboot. Any ideas how to recover ? I am going to try using Aroma File manager to see if I can delete the apk and see if that helps.
---------- Post added at 03:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 AM ----------
If you are experienceing boot loops, get Aroma File Manager running from CWM and delete this file /data/app/io.rekey.rekey-1.apk. It should get ur phone up and running again
Here is a trusted option if u can run Xposed framework.

this is the most secure way to patch it on the phone side.
if you are running cm10.1 it has already been patched
if you are running AOKP or PAC that was built after 7/8 (i think) it has already been patched.
Moved to Q&A

Yea. Any cm10.1+ based ROMs after the date u listed are good. Some of them in the dev thread don't have it yet.

Thanks! I was just curious. Not worried a bit. I only install apps from the Play Store or the Amazon App Store.

Is there any way someone could pull the stock browser.apk so I can side load it on my S5. The new s5 comes with chrome but I kinda like the S4 stock browser for certain things. I know there is at least one other member with an s5 that would like it too. I searched Google but couldn't find it.

Thank you. I tried to install it but it failed. It goes through the process of installing but then says "app now installed". I guess it won't work for whatever reason. Do you know how I could possibly get it to work? I don't have any clue to what I can try if there is anything..

Are you rooted? I haven't looked to see if there is root for the S5 yet... if so, you'd have to push it to system and change permissions to rw r r with a root explorer.

Yeah that's what I was thinking might work but there isn't root for the Verizon s5 yet. And I'm not sure if I could get away with rooting with Knox and being on the edge program. I don't think they would like the Knox counter marked when they get the phone back. I'll play with other Web browsers till I find one that suits my needs. Thanks for your help

No problem. I used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.easyweb.browser this one before, it's pretty good. But I decided I liked Chrome better.

My only problem with chrome is that it has problems with embedded youtube videos. Sometimes there isn't sound and other times the sound comes out of the ear speaker instead of the back. If it wasn't for that I would be happy with chrome
