[7/15][MOD][TW]CM10.1 MMS on TouchWiz - New Themed Options[DEODEX] - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps

EDIT: See Post #3 for the same zip versions that are in the OP, but with different versions of the AOSP Mms.apk that you can choose from (based on popular demand).
Okay boys and girls, I think we may have done it. Right now I currently have the fully-themeable MMS from here working on my AT&T S4 TouchWiz ROM - NO WORKAROUNDS FOR SENDING MMS, AND GROUP MESSAGING FULLY FUNCTIONAL!! Additionally (thanks to @WoodburyMan), due to an incompatibility between the stock CM10.1 MMS app and image size limits imposed by AT&T (and possibly other carriers), the MMS apk within the zip has been modified to prevent the odd image re-sizing issues that have been so frustrating to many users.
NOTE: This WILL wipe your text messages during install, so make sure you back them up prior to install using TiBu or another method (there are several free SMS backup apps floating around the Play Store) and then restore after installing.
Due to the modifications to framework files, this mod is dependent upon the base of the ROM you are running. At this point in time, the changes in base were the most significant in the upgrade to MEA (the international i9505 non-carrier build). As such, it is crucial that you download the correct version of the zip attached to this post. For those that do not know how to tell what base you are on, open up your build.prop from /system and find the following line:
Code:
ro.build.version.incremental=
On the resulting build version number, note the last three digits. If the last three digits are MEA, MF2, MF4, MF8, MF9, or MGA, then download the "MEA+" zip file. If the last three characters begin with "MD" or "MK", download the "PRE-MEA" zip file. If it says MF3, download the "MF3" version. You'll notice very quickly if you've downloaded the wrong version, because pretty much every app that you open after flashing the file will eventually force-close and you will have the sudden urge to chunk your phone at your own head because you downloaded the wrong file.
Directions:
1) MUST be rooted with a custom recovery.
2) Download the zip file attached below.
3) MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP MMS/SMS BEFORE FLASHING!!! The zip will delete your current inbox. This is your second warning...if you post in this thread complaining about how this wiped your messages, anonymous/faceless internet users will laugh at you.
4) Flash the zip in custom recovery. I am using TWRP but any custom recovery should be fine A nandroid is always recommended to be on the safe side
5) After reboot, use a file explorer such as root explorer and navigate to system/app and rename KeyguardWidget.apk to KeyguardWidget.apk.bak. This keep the small keywidget clock being forced as the default.
6) PROFIT, you should now have fully functional AOSP 4.2 messaging with working group messaging and no workaround needed for MMS
For anyone who has issues, I made this restore zip that should restore you back to your original state prior to flashing this mod. No, it won't also restore your MMS messages. (See #3 above.) My assumption was that a majority of the users who will be flashing the app will be coming from the stock TW messaging app...so if you're already on an AOSP MMS (ie with the workaround), you'll need to manually make a backup of the Mms.apk PRIOR to flashing this package. So as long as you originally came from stock MMS or you manually backed up your previous AOSP app, you shouldn't need to revert to a Nandroid backup (although, as always, one is recommended prior to flashing anything new) - just copy your backed up Mms.apk to /system/app.
Once you get everything back online, make sure you followed all instructions perfectly and downloaded the right file. If you did and it's still not working, please post the following and I will try to get you up and running:
CARRIER (ATT, Verizon, etc.)
ROM (MintJelly, HyperDrive, Omega, etc.)
BASE (MEA, MF4, MDL, MDK, etc.)
Navigate to /system/app and /system/framework and copy "SecTelephonyProvider.apk" and "framework2.jar", respectively, to your sdcard (make sure they are the files from your ROM as if it were just clean-flashed...it won't do any good if you post the files that were installed when you flashed my zip). Post these here and I will dig into them to see if anything can be done for a fix.

SMS/MMS RECEIVED SCREEN-ON WORKAROUND
I have a Tasker profile (if you haven't heard of Tasker, it is a super awesome app that literally is unlimited in its capabilities for automating your phone) that takes care of this for me.
Download Tasker:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm
Download Secure Settings Tasker Plugin:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.intangibleobject.securesettings.plugin
Download and import my profile/task into Tasker:
(Profile): http://www.mediafire.com/?4ea2lp22u225xxp
(Task): http://www.mediafire.com/?9qm5ii8fm35wvti
I have it set to turn the screen on for 5 seconds any time a message is received...but you can adjust it to your liking within the Secure Settings Plugin.

Here are some alternative zips containing different versions of the MMS app, based on several people requesting certain features within the app or differently-themed versions.
Feel free to participate and share any other version that you've had a good experience with - and I'll add them here!
NOTE: If you already have flashed one of my earlier zips and you're on AOSP, just download the Mms.apk file from this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43700174) and follow install instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43659066. This method *should not* delete your text messages.
Alternative #1: Stock-Themed Mms from most recent CM10.1 nightly *dark pop-up reply widget is actually themed correctly*
Pre-MEA: http://www.mediafire.com/?u5nafh0ftctwtu2
MEA+: http://www.mediafire.com/?iy7qncz4jeezu5o
Sprint Testing Zip (from OP): http://www.mediafire.com/?g3okbufgn3iikss

Alternative #2: Inverted + Holo themed MMS from the null_04 GE ROM found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43397893. The quick reply pop-up widget is also themed correctly

I don't think that I'm flashing this successfully. After the flash, my stock TW sms app says that it is now uninstalled when I try to press the shortcut, but I do not know how to access the AOSP mms app on the phone. I can see that there is the MMS.apk in system/apps when using rootexplorer, but there is no shortcut to the app in my drawer. I have reverted using the provided zip and reflashed again to receive the same result.
Carrier: AT&T
ROM: Mint Jelly V3
Baseband: I337UCUAMDL
Build: MEA
I soft-bricked my phone last night using flashing the pre-MEA zip because I was stupid and careless. I installed the MEA zip this time. I really want to get this working so any help is very appreciated.
EDIT: I cannot post my SecTelephonyProvider.apk or framework2.jar because I am currently on my work computer.

If you set up a shortcut on your launcher for the Sammie MMS, then it's not going to work anymore because the app no longer exists.
What launcher are you using? You should be able to delete the shortcut you had and create a new one with the new MMS apk as the destination. Or you could just open up the app drawer and it should be in there somewhere.

I'm on nova launcher prime. I've tried going back to TW launcher to see if the AOSP shortcut popped up there somehow, but it wasn't there. It is also nowhere to be found on my app manager either.
EDIT: I attempted to sideload the MMS.apk from the other thread. It did not replace the stock TW sms as it was supposed to and there is also no new shortcut in the drawer.

Any way to get quick reply on the notification bar?

It's a system app, so you won't be able to sideload it regardless.
This is so strange, I can't think of any reason why this is happening. Did you check to make sure SecMms.apk was appropriately renamed to SecMms.apk.bak?
Also make sure permissions on Mms.apk are rw-r--r--.
To make 100% sure they are, open up Terminal Emulator and run the following:
su
chmod 644 /system/app/Mms.apk
Also, please go to Settings -> More -> Application Manager -> All and then scroll down and tell me if you see "Messaging". If so, click on it just for kicks and clear app data/cache + reboot.

There is also no "Messaging" in my app manager after flashing the zip. I am completely stumped.. and I want this very badly. I will try to format my /system and do another clean install of MintJelly V3 before flashing your zip again and see how it goes.

OK so I see Air-View SOMEWHAT works because it highlights the text, it just does not show the preview like it's supposed to. Do you plan on fixing this and making the Air View fully functional/working?! That would make this by far the best messaging app....... EVER!!!!! Good work though man!

Just did the clean flash of MintJelly V3. First thing I did was attempt to flash your CM10.1 MMS zip. Still same result - no new shortcut anywhere to be found and no mms in my app manager. Did formatting my system have anything to do with messing this up?
EDIT: I now restored to an old MDL nandroid backup and attempted to flash the pre-MEA zip. Still no AOSP messaging on my phone. The last thing I can think of is restoring my phone to factory via kies when I'm home tonight and to flash this on a rooted stock TW rom. If that doesn't work then I'm out of ideas.

I had to do a restore because I was having image size problems. I reflashed this MMS and now when I click on messaging it says app not installed.
I'm on AT&T ShoStock ROM

hey CPA Used the PRE MEA file, didnt work. So i tried to go back to stock... . I cant get my original keyguardwidget to come back on, its still defaulting to the small clock. I have renamed it to remove the .bak, It seems the widget is totally disabled, no edit button no custom text. Ive tried to flash the restore_previous_mms and it didnt seem to do anything. my stock samsung messaging app is working.

Unfortunately that would require Samsung's proprietary TouchWiz source. I'm not even quite how the AirView is even partly working...I'm guessing Sammie must have kept some of the source from Google's stock MMS base when they applied their TouchWiz skin, so it's still picking up some of the dependencies.

Your internal SD card has more than 200M bytes free.
Installation Instructions
Copy the zip package you downloaded from the link above to your internal sd card.
Turn off your device.
Boot your device into recovery mode by pressing Vol Up+Home+Power. You can release your buttons once you see the Samsung logo.
In main menu, use "wipe data/factory reset" clean up your data directory.
In advanced menu and do a "Wipe Dalvik Cache".
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard".
Then select "choose zip from internal sdcard".
Pick the zip file you put on the internal sdcard.
Select "Yes" to start the flashing.
Now the AROMA installer will start. Follow the installation steps shown.
At the end of the installation, press 'Finish' and you will go back CWM Recovery.
DO NOT WIPE data after the installation! Otherwise you will wipe out apps installed in the data partition!
If it is a success, go back to main menu and select "reboot system now".
Installation Instructions for Mods

Information for ROM users
Device ID Hack - I have made quite a lot of changes to the device id hack. The phone parameters are now moved from "rom-settings" on sdcard to "/data/property" which is a much more standard way to handle properties. Another important feature is the "WT ROM Tweaker" app. The app gives you the ability to change phone parameters like network operator, SIM card serial no. and etc.
Below are some other Network Operators that you can try
Network Operator/ Network Operator Name/Network Country ISO

Using Whatsapp - Whatsapp is still not showing up on market therefore I have included the apk in the ROM. With the device ID hack, the Whatsapp can be run on Galaxy Player. After accepting the Whatsapp's agreement, you will be asked for a phone number. You need to enter a REAL phone number for the verification to work. It will try to send a sms to your phone number for verification. But of course the sms verification will fail because the phone number does not belong to the Galaxy Player. After a few minutes, Whatsapp will present you with another option by calling your phone number. You will receive a call from Whatsapp playing back the verification code to you. You can then use the code to register Whatsapp. Now you are set. However, this registration is tied to the IMEI generated by the device id hack. Therefore DO NOT delete the "rom-settings" folder under your sdcard. Otherwise you need to do it all over again when a new IMEI is generated.
13 status bar toggle buttons - To use the toggles, slide down the notification and you can slide the buttons left and right. Pressing the button will toggle the item. Long press the button will bring you to the setting. You can also use the include Quick Setting app to enable and reorder these buttons.
Installation Log - If you experience installation issues, you can save the installation log at the last step of your installation. It should be located at the same folder as your ROM zip.
Information for Developers
Going to test this right now. Sounds awesome!
EDIT: Tried this ROM. It is very smooth, I like it a LOT. However, I'm having some trouble. I can't seem to pick an optional launcher. It doesn't work; it just brings me to the regular TouchWiz 3.0 interface. :L Otherwise, this ROM is great.
This looks great on paper. Gonna try it now and report back later.
Thank you for the effort!
EDIT: The installation went well, but I can't turn on WiFi and Bluetooth. When I try to turn WiFi, it only says "Error".
I have an US version of the SGP 5.0

Can you provide more information on the steps you did? Also the TW 4.5 looks very similar to 4.5.

Thank you for the effort!
EDIT: The installation went well, but I can't turn on WiFi and Bluetooth. When I try to turn WiFi, it only says "Error".

I tried it flashing the ROM from the internal SD card as noted on the instructions.
On the Aroma installer I picked the Stock SGP Boot animation, Touchwiz 4.5 and the Device ID hack.
Once it was completed, I went back to CWM and I rebooted the device.
Everything went well, until I tried to turn WiFi on, then Bluetooth.
After that I tried flashing the ROM from the external SD Card.
I then picked the Stock SGP Boot animation, Default Launcher and the Device ID hack. Same results.
I will keep trying with different configurations.
I hope it helps. Thank you again for this new option.

That's odd. Can you capture the installation log at the last step of the installation? You should see a button for saving the log.
On my device, wifi and bluetooth seems to be working correctly. One possibility is that there are some files that are leftover from previous ROM in /system. In addition to full data wipe, you can try mounting /system and format it under "mounts and storage" in CWM. This will ensure everything got wiped.

I will provide you with log, but tomorrow, sleepy time here.
And yes, everytime I flash a new ROM, I do wipe everything, including Dalvik's, and I never had any problems.
Let's hope tomorrow more users will try this ROM on a US device and see if they too have the same issues as me.

Oh, I love AROMA Installer~ THX
@WT Ho,
I tried the ROM and selected Go Launcher the next time, and still gave me TW Launcher 3.0. It didn't even install Go Launcher. Also, the Play Store worked for me on Stock ROM. WiFi might have problems with this ROM, but I'll try it again from Stock ROM and give results.
I tried many configurations.
I was not able to reproduce the WiFi problem not turning on, same for Bluetooth.
When I choose to install the Device ID hack is when problems arise. I can connect to wifi but I can't log in to my Google account or my Amazon app store app account.
I choose different launchers and boot animations but I get no problems.
Here's the link for my installation log:

Yes. Actually I can reproduce the Google log in problem when Device ID hack is selected. This is because the hack requires a directory "rom-settings" on the internal sdcard (i.e. /sdcard/rom-settings). You can manually create that folder on the sdcard.
I will upload a patched release that will create that folder automatically.

I wonder if you have done a data wipe AFTER installing the ROM? If you do that, you will wipe all the apps that are stored on /data including the launcher you installed.
If that's not what happen, I have to look at your installation log, which can be saved at the last step of the installation.
Just uploaded a patch release V0.2.1. That should solve the Google login problem.
Bad news, I've tried 3 times already, with and without the Device ID hack, but it goes no further than the Samsung Logo.

[MOD][APP] Exchange Security Disabled (Sense Mail.apk) (Updated 2/15/2013)

I don't take any credit for finding this fix, but I wanted to make it more accessible for E4GLTE owners.
Want to be able to access your Exchange email account without the security permissions required by your work/school? I know I do - so here's how:
First, backup your ROM (this is a fairly safe modification, but better safe than sorry).
Next, remove your Exchange ActiveSync account if you already have it on the phone (I've had good luck skipping this step). Then follow these steps (or just use one of the recovery flashable zips):
Download the attached Mail.apk to your phone.
Using a root access file explorer (Root Explorer is my favorite) go to \system\app
Mount as R/W, and delete or rename Mail.apk and mail.odex (I renamed them to Mail.apk.bak and mail.odex.bak).
Copy the downloaded Mail.apk into \system\app
Set permissions to match the original Mail.apk
Reboot (Recommended: reboot to recovery and clear Cache/Dalvik cache)
Now re-add your Exchange account, and you should be set!
Note that this makes your sensitive email more vulnerable to bad people if your phone is stolen (and your security admin will not be happy with you if they find out) - this is on your head, not mine!
Huge thanks to rathore4u for making the original modified app available for a large number of phones (ICS both Sense and AOSP). Original thread is here - be sure to thank him for his wisdom!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Edit 2/15/2013* - Rebuilt from the newest OTA build (3.16) (works now - thanks mikeyxda!)
*Edit 2/13/2013* - Added revert-to-stock zip for 3.16.
*Edit 12/27/2012* - Rebuilt the modded apk from stock Evo LTE JB (no longer using shnizlon's)... hopefully this will fix any problems people were having? Also added a revert-to-stock JB zip.
*Edit 12/18/2012* - Added a flashable zip for Jelly Bean/Sense 4+. Credit goes to tbonnano231 and shnizlon - go send them some Thanks!
*Edit 9/4/2012* - Fixed my flashable zips to work better (correct permissions and automagically clears cache/dalvik cache).
*Edit 8/31/2012* - Used Rathore4u's guide to modify the Sense 4.1 Mail.apk (from the 2.13.651.1 base).
*Edit 6/29/2012* - Using rathore4u's how-to guide and the Mail.apk from mikeyxda's MeanROM, I created a Mail.apk with Sync While Roaming and HTML message format available. I've attached this as an apk and a flashable zip (make sure to rename the apk to Mail.apk if you go the manual method). Be sure to thank both rathore4u and mikeyxda for their contributions!
*Edit 6/14/2012* - Rathore4u stepped up and helped us out - we now have our very own modified mail app for the E4GLTE! This version has none of the bugs the previous one had (text prediction/deletion works just fine [tested using SwiftKey] and notification sound works as well). I've replaced the attached file with the fixed version, and included a flashable zip I made for those who are lazy like me
Attached Files (newest files are blue):
Mail-41.apk - Stock Evo 4G LTE mail with security disabled (2.13.651.1 base - NEWEST)
Mail-sans-security_E4GLTE-41.zip - Stock Evo 4G LTE mail with security disabled, recovery flashable zip (2.13.651.1 base - NEWEST)
Mail.apk - Stock Evo 4G LTE mail with security disabled (from older base)
Mail-sans-security_E4GLTE.zip - Stock Evo 4G LTE mail with security disabled, recovery flashable zip
Mail-MeanFeatures-NoSecurity.apk - MeanROM mail (Sync while roaming and HTML enabled) with security disabled [rename to Mail.apk when you install]
Mail-MeanFeatures-NoSecurity-E4GLTE.zip - MeanROM mail with security disabled, recovery flashable zip [this zip backs up your previous Mail.apk as Mail.apk.bak, in case you want to go back to stock]
Mail-No-Security_EvoLTE-JB.zip - Jelly Bean/Sense 4+ mail with security disabled, recovery flashable zip
Stock-Mail_EvoLTE-JB.zip - STOCK Jelly Bean/Sense 4+ mail, recovery flashable zip (revert to stock!)
[*]Stock-Mail_3.16.zip - Stock Jelly Bean/Sense 4+ mail 3.16 OTA, recovery flashable zip
[*]Mail-No-Security_3.16.zip - Jelly Bean/Sense 4+ mail with security disabled for 3.16 OTA, recovery flashable zip
Thanks so much for this! I'll give it a try, have had modded mail.apk files for all of the other sense versions.

Works well
Thanks, works great!!
I've used this, and it has worked to disable exchange policies. I get a very strange response now though when I try to delete or correct a misspelled word. The word will duplicate itself, and it makes it almost impossible to delete. I have tried three different keyboards, and it does it with all of them.
Any thoughts?

Yeah, the bug occurs in the preloaded version of Swype, as well as Swiftkey X, and Swiftkey 3 beta.
For folks using Swype, just go to Swype preferences and disable word suggestion (all 3 checkboxes) and this problem goes away. However the problem with the notification sound not working still remains, atleast I can't find a workaround for it.
Rathore4u helped us out and made a modified Mail.apk based on the E4GLTE's apk. I've tested it and it doesn't have the text prediction/deletion bug (tested using SwiftKey) and it does play notification sounds!
I've updated the OP with the new Mail.apk, and also created a flashable zip if that's what you'd prefer.

Just a note, the new version is deodexed. Which in my experience, if you are on an odexed ROM (stock) will cause you to see an "Android is upgrading" window everytime you reboot and it slows down reboots.
I'm looking to see if we can odex that apk so we will have both versions.
Here is the odexed version I just made, works great!
This is NOT a flashable zip. Extract out mail.apk and mail.odex and copy them to /system/app

I believe it does the "updating apps" thing only once, doesn't it? I made my zip erase mail.odex so it would work with the odexed ROM (at least, I think it should).

The text prediction/deletion bug also went away with Swype, however the notification sound still isn't working for me. I have replaced the app, cleared cache and dalvik cache. Also tried re-setting up the exchange account again and that didn't help either. Anyone else facing this issue?

Blocking Mode Fix (Root Required)

**I am not responsible for any damage you do to your phone. This as any other mod is done at your own risk. This is just a guidline on how to get a real fix for blocking mode on your VZW Jelly Bean device.**
This blocking mode fix has been confirmed on both the VZW Note 2 and the VZW Galaxy S3
*You need to be rooted.*
IF YOUR ON A NON-VZW BASED ROM:
JUST FOLLOW PART 3!! (and part 4 if you like!)
IF YOUR ON A VZW BASED ROM:
Part 1
There are two apks that are the reason for blocking mode not working. The two files are the secContacts.apk and the secPhone.apk. You will need download these two apks from a other carriers rom and replace them in the system/app folder in root explorer (or your choice system file explorer) and change the permissions.. (For example download a flashable "att" note 2 rom and copy the secContacts.apk and the secPhone.apk and paste them into your system/app folder. Restart then change the permissions then restart again. Same thing with the Galaxy s3 only you have to download files from another carrier galaxy s3 Rom. From this point on blocking mode will work 100 percent.
Part 2
Now that you have blocking mode working, how can you access it. You can get a shortcut maker app and have a blocking mode home screen icon... OR..You can have it in the settings menu like it's supposed to be! Now just like before there is an apk that VZW had changed to block this. It is the secSettings.apk. So from the same rom you downloaded from before copy the sec.Settings.apk from the other carrier Rom and paste it in your system/app folder in root explorer. At this point you may or may not get a chance to restart your phone (it might freeze for a sec and restart by itself. Once phone restarts change the permissions and restart again. **NOTE: Some roms settings mave have more or less options then the stock. To access these just also copy and paste the secSettingsProvider.apk and everything will work perfectly** **NOTE: menu appearance will not change yet!**
Part 3
Last step. Now that you have the new menu there are still two more files that are causing the menu to change. In root explorer navigate to /efs/imei and delete the map_code.dat and then go to /system/Csc and delete the sales_code.dat. Now restart your phone and you are good to go. **NOTE: after deleting these files any VZW apps on your phone or in market will not be recognized on your phone. For example if you try to download a VZW app from the market it will say your device is not recognized. But they have 'market unlocker' apps that can trick the market to see you as any carrier you want. Also VZW Apps like backup assistant might not work properly.
Part 4
This is not really related to blocking mode but I though I might throw it in here as a bonus. If you copy the feature.xml from another carrier (ex is use the ATT one) and paste it in you /system/csc (I'm my opinion) makes your VZW phone better.The stock email app for example will never try to connect to the VZW server again. It will just go straight to the email app. It also seems to make your phone more responsive and work better with certain samsung apps. (Ex: the samsung apps.apk connects better with samsung push service.* Like I said just a little something extra I noticed.*
ENJOY!
EDIT: If anyone is having trouble with part 2 and the secsettings.apk or any other file, try using files from this rom:
EDIT: You may need to wipe first.

Which rom are you on. Are you sure you used the correct files? The secphone.apk and seccontacts.apk? I would try again and make sure you used the clean rom files. Also check the blocking mode settings allowed contacts list and make sure you have that setup right. If it says none, no calls will go through.
EDIT: Replace the files in the system/app folder with the ones from clean rom and change the permissions and restart. Then clear cache and restart again.

what is the ds store file?
There is a missing step somewhere for the note 2, I stumbled onto it guide a few days ago in the S3 forum and couldn't get it working 100%
I'm on an at&t ROM with the correct files and modded the files needed, can get blocking mode activated but it only worked about 50% of the time....even switched back to beans ROM and followed necessary steps again and that way only worked about 25% of the time.
Not sure what the extra step its gonna be but I have been working on it for a few days...

Yea. I don't know how mine works perfectly all of the time but a lot of people are saying they're having trouble. I'm not sure what the deal is. The two roms I tested it on were both clean rom for a vzw note 2. And i tried on a vzw sgs3 on an executioner rom. All three times it worked flawlessly for me.
the phone and mms files in cleanrom are from the verizon rom so thats why thats not working

[ROM]FOXHOUND DIAMONDDOGS 3.65UPDATED4MDKtoMK2&AnyCarrier-SS-NOKNOX-CLEAN-FAST-THEMED
Gogolie'sROM Port: Foxhound Diamond Dogs 3.6 MDK THRU MK2 COMPATIBLE & ANY CARRIER COMPATIBLE = VZW - AT&T - TMO - SPR THERE IS NO FORCED KERNEL OR MODULE INSTALL! (NECESSARY FOR SAFESTRAP PLEASE MODERATORS DON'T MAKE ME INCLUDE ONE ITS NOT NECESSARY FOR OUR PHONES!)
This very quick little TW rom is awesome its my daily. New update allows for zip install to any slot on SafeStrap or through any custom recovery. AT&T and other carriers may need to flash your MK2 modules or add in TMO APN/ AT&T APN / SPRINT APN settings to get this beast working 100%. If that didn't fix your problem then you need to install the GSM / LTE carrier modem (just guessing that your GSM if you can't get this going as thats been only complaint of lost data and he was able to fix it with proper carrier modem). If these options are too difficult I'll be posting my own comp packs for major carriers below in download sections zip install immediately after installing ROM.
Known issues/Not Working (only for select users):
No known issues exist, if you find a reoccurring bug that has not been addressed here or in the Int section please post.
Issues with not having "stockish on stock slot" may occur by having a heavily modified/themed ROM in stock slot using SafeStrap.
If it doesnt work for you I'm sorry your best bet if your on VZW is SS but with thousands of downloads and hardly any issues across the board with the 1st release I think that speaks for itself... ALL My ROMs rock and are fixed ports or originals and bug free for me or I wouldn't release them. Otherwise this thread would be a mile long like some other Roms that need constant support! Enjoy took me some time to put together so if it works thank me or better yet donate so you can see updates and more roms!
This is a port of the Foxhound Diamond Dog Team's v3.6 w/ ML6 base using a essential only install w a lot of mods and a clean diamond boot animation, included 4.4 apps and a sound/volume mod with the ultra sharp Foxhound theme. Updated all parts of ROM like Xposed / Play Store ect that were giving users some issues before.
Remember I myself nor XDA is responsible for any actions or mistakes or decisions you make with your phone. Installing a custom ROM is a personal decision I say flash it all but thats my decision. However a bit of insight would tell you there is no kernel forced installed like most ROMs try to do so there is much less chance of any errors or issues or bricking because of this. I recommend installing MK2 stock or your favorite kernel and trying and experimenting with this yourself.
Lil about me: I'm a now broke, technically I'm disabled (w/ 4 crushed discs in spine the gov says I'm too young to get disability and shouldn't admit that MMJ medicine works for me they=heartless pricks)I'm a full time single parent of a 1 yr old so Idon't get a lot of time for my passions anymore. ex award winning programmer (lost the love for it, be sure to copyright anything you intellectually own especially when it comes to working with G or MS. they'll steal your everything claim you signed it over and hang you out to dry) now i'm just a fellow android lover with a knack for making things work when they normally won't, experimenting, coding,scripting, anything I feel like doing so if this or any of my other creations or additions to your phone helped you in any way help keep my kid in fresh diapers or put a beer in my hand please. Anything is better than nothing I have spent countless hours learning testing and everything in between to bring you cool stuff like this. Thanks!
PS Sorry to all the fans of my ROM ports I had promised updates and made them but wasn't able to post on here because I didn't offer support or own a sprint phone (even though I fix/root and install my roms for customers of my home business on all national carriers without issues:!) Let em hate eh if I suddenly vanish and stop responding or supporting my threads (give me a few days to respond to PMs and questions) or my accounts not active find me at Infamous Forums. Thanks again for all the donations and support. I do this for the users that like their phones to have options. Not for the money or fame (LOL get treal i love the accusations they funny but come on play nice other devs lying about my stuff)

Unzip into your new SS backup dir into your backup Safestrap folder in a folder like gogolies-Foxhound3.6 make sure all files are simply in 1 folder and that folder is in your backup directory and restore to a ***blank/newly created or STOCK*** rom slot. I went super small as small as SS would allow for slot creation. If your getting an error on restoring be sure to try deleting the slot and re-adding it then restoring the system files. If your WiFi doesn't work try flashing MJ7 or MK2 SS modules but only flash modules after 1st booting up rom and knowing wifi isnt working. 1st boot takes time plz allow a minute after loading up 1st time after 1st boot. Startup time is fastest SS rom I've seen. FH Apps and Settings contain xposed and modules for it and can help u customize and tweak it a bit but are installed as system files and don't let you update easily but it can be done I suggest just leaving it until another release or read down in the thread for details on how to update if you must..

unzip the file you just downloaded into the folder where your backups are saved. for me its TWRP>BACKUPS>6056c852.Then you select rom slot 2(or make a slot 2).In the main menu select restore and you should see the file you unzipped with the rest of your backups if you have any. I just did it and this maybe my new favorite! Hope this helps you out
Downloading!

How do I increase the system partition, when I hit the + sign nothing happens.
Looking forward to another choice!
It looks like a very slim and smooth rom but still packed with features we need. But may i ask why rom slot 2? What, your roms too good for slot 1? , Also, how many ppl on MJ7 have tested it without updating? (Just curious). Thanks again for the new toy!
Got this one up and running and I suppose the others I had tried in the past would work now to.
After some input in various threads by @Surge1223 , it came to my attention that I should try ODIN back to MJ7 and stick there instead of updating to the MK2 bootloader if wanting to run HD RLS12 in stock side which is my preference.
After I did that and restored my Nandroid of HD RLS12 to stock side then had to apply the MJ7 module, all was well.
Created a slot, and this time was able to get this up and running via restore to slot. 1st time of success with that with any ROM whether via Nandroid Restore or flashing to.
Monkeying around with it now, so far so good. One thing I notice is with Xposed Installer, In the settings under 'update' , there is an update available for it but it won't install - says something about package with that name and different signature found.

Update: Root Explorer shows nothing as in will not load up directories just black screen?
Update #3: Nevermind about Root Explorer. User error. I mistakenly restored app & data from it via TIBU. I uninstalled and restored App only and all is well now!

The system partition size is pre-set in the app code. To my knowledge you can't resize it. Maybe if you rewrote the script but im not there yet. Ppl tend to forget safestrap 3.7x is still beta.

seems like a sweet rom. I havent had time to restore my apps and what not but im looking forward to a test drive. On MJ7 btw...
Restoring this ROM to my slot failed. I'm rooted on MK2 with SS 3.71 installed. Was able to load the Omega ROM, but not this one.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
This ROM is awesome! Super slick and good looking.
You may want to put this in your instructions.
If you can't find where the backup folder is go into safestrap and make a backup of the cache on stock ROM.
Then extract the .zip file to the folder with the cache backup and has allot of numbers and letters on it.

I know I said I wouldnt be offering support on this one but since you were kind enough to try my first omega version that and I really really like this rom over any others and I've ported a good 10 new ones to the phone now
have you tried deleting the slot and then remaking it? not sure why but that seems to work if its failing restore. then just restore system files I actually just had to do this earlier after finishing up omega v19 sorry I am not able to see whats the issue I believe its something with the way safestrap is "formatting" or something. hope that helps no Idea if that doesnt work you might be in the restoring boat like lazer9 had to do that method will work for those unable to install this as is. odin mj7 reroot then ss then whatever. Oh and you don't have to put this on Slot 2 I just included it incase it still mattered in safestrap whether or not you restored to same slot but it does not matter apparently. So install to any slot should work fine probably even stock if someone dared try? same with MJ7 users just flash modules if it doesn't boot up first try. obviously theres some different issues with various parts of the rom plz continue to post your findings guys. I promise nothing but I'll help if I can.
I found the first problem,
For me you can't download apps from play store, any tips?

(theme) "MISSING LINK" aka O.Z.O.P THEME BUILDER and BOOT/SHUTDOWN INSTALLER 10/15/14
*"THE MISSING LINK" Theme builder (see changelog)
BEFORE MODDING YOUR SYSTEM ALWAYS MAKE A FULL NANDROID BACKUP!!!!
This has been built and tested on my T-Mobile S5
O.Z.O.P. ROM​One Zip One Place​
I started out theming back on my S2 and created what is now called "Missing Link"
As any themer/developer knows, these things take test, after test, after test, to get things working and looking properly !!!
The problem is, every time things get left behind and garbage files build up until the ROM isn't running just how I like.
I USED to have to wipe everything and flash the Base ROM, then flash seperate file after file, or mods and theme options to get it back to where i wanted it and this is where O.Z.O.P. is born!!!
My idea for this project is to have One Zip file in One Place with EVERYTHING you could want or need to build a new and different ROM when you feel the need for change. So this will DEFINITELY be W.I.P. and grow with more and more to come, and go if need be!!
So Here is a run down of the options given to you during the Aroma Installation
Starting with
*Backup/Restore your current settings, accounts, Bluetooth/WiFi pairings, text messages and setting with call logs, very convenient when you are a pure flashaholic like myself.
There is definitely a right way and wrong way to apply your restoration.
Don't worry that I've testing it thousands of times literally.
click for instructions on Backup/Restore Script
Right now the complete Restore Script isn't working in the same flash session as the ROM install.
follow these to reduce problems
1) In recovery run the "Backup Script"
2) Flash the ROM (of your choice)
3) in the same session run "Restore Script" and any other mods you want. This will get your account sign in finished
4) let the phone boot up and finish the "Set up Wizard"
5) now boot to recovery and run the "Restore Script" and this will finish restoring your settings options and text messages.
if you have "force close of android.process.acore" or any other force close issue

Remember this is work in progress.
I am always open for new ideas and please let me know if things aren't working.
Thanks again.
This project wouldn't be possible without all of the brilliant minds here on XDA!!!
**Again, before you run this installer make a backup Just In Case!!​
previous releases
*****Download Not Now v1 HERE*****
Fixes/misc downloads:
*Flashable TWRP 2.8.0.1
*Fingerprint Scanner
Instructions for installation
1-Download and place on internal SD card (either work, just quicker loading from internal card)
2-Boot to custom recovery or your choice
3-Flash the zip file of Missing Link you downloaded
4-Aroma Installer will run you through a list of option with multiple choices to choose from (if you're not sure what they are follow instructions to preview your choice while you using Aroma)
5-Reboot and you good, no wipe necessary, done
Instructions for Restoring your backup
1-You will only have a backup if you have flashed Missing Link or ROM Not Now
2-The Script creates a Flashable Backup and puts it in the NotNow folder on your internal SDcard
3-It will only keep 1 (one) copy of this file. It gets overwritten every time. So if you flash Missing Link and Then flash it again, you will no longer have the setup you started with. You will have a copy of your most recent Missing Link Theme. So if you want the "back to stock" copy, you will have to manually take a copy of the first flash from the folder and place it else where.
4-When you're ready just flash the Undo_Last_MissingLink.zip from recovery
5-Reboot and you good, no wipe necessary, done

NP. It's weird that it says that. I've seen with a few other Aroma zips from other devs too. Not sure why it says that, but the files always open with Root Explorer and they always flash fine. Let me know what you think of the mod options. Even better let's see some screenshots!! Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you
Im really looking forward to this,most other themes for the S5 have got abandoned and there is almost no nice theme around
Hey Stang, how you been?
Glad to see you got the S5. Maybe you could clone your thread over to Sprint S5 Themes and Apps as well. I'm sure the folks would like to play with this over there as well.

I'm doing much better since being dropped by Sprint for using too much" unlimited data"! I love this phone! I have been following your mod thread since before I actually had the phone in hand. So many good mods. The hard part is picking which to start with first. Unfortunately I've been having issues with my PC and decompiling correctly. I'm in need of a reformat anyways. That's a great idea about sharing this over to the sprint people. A few small adjustments and should work fine with Sprint version. Good to hear from you and keep up the good work. Thank you
This is very handy. I have a couple of suggestions that might help to get more people check this out quicker. Perhaps a quick tutorial in the initial post about how to use aroma? I only know how to use this through recovery. Is there another way? Also I think that maybe a pure dark theme would get people's attention fairly quickly. How are you able to theme pkm files with aroma? I didn't think that was possible. All in all, very cool. Thanks for the work that you you have put in. I'm looking forward to additional options.

Thank you for the comments. I will be working on you suggestions with new releases. Enjoy
Also I am not themeing the pkm images with Aroma, not Theming pkm files at all. I was surprised when I discovered them and disappointed when I found the difficulty in even viewing them. Hopefully soon I will get that part figured out. You can expect a whole level then!!
Anyways the OP is updated with a new link for Missing Link v1.1 update
Works on Sprint, too!
Working out the kinks.....but it does work.

Definitely still working out the kinks and testing new things daily! With the help of @Ryno1982 and his advice about the new pkm image files it opened up some options with the Dialers. I I will put together an update with these new options for a release this week hopefully.

Not enough info to help?? what options did you pick?
What ROM are you using?
What recovery are you flashing with?
Did you download to your phone or pc?
Where does it "hang"? Does it say "zipalign in progress", "optimizing system"? If so this part takes a little while especially if you picked every option. If it takes more than say 2 minutes, then something is wrong.
I would check md5, if that's good I would make sure it's on the internal sdcard. It works on extsdcard just much slower.
I have not experienced this problem personally, but every phone is different so let me know so we can get you going.
thanks for the input

It shouldn't take longer than 10 seconds, at most!!
This could be a Safe Strap compatibility issue than I'm unaware of? Have you flashed and other Aroma mod installers? If so which one with a link please? I would like to figure this out!!! Any info to a solution would be appreciated. You might want to try the updated v2 from the OP. Just released now. Let me know if maybe that one works?

So are you able to pick any options? or it freezes as it is begining? Do you see the splash screen image of Homer Simpson? Is anyone else using a safe strap device? if so are you having issues?
No splash screen..no option freezes on initial install on safe strap..never gets past it telling me installing
