This will be the lightest G900T TouchWiz ROM you ever will see! Just 569 MB
G900T version ROM Details:
- Based on the latest Samsung Stock G900T UVU1BNH5 firmware (Base build date: 27-8-2014)
- Stock UVU1BNH5 Kernel (build date: 27-8-2014) & Latest KToonsez kernel
- De-bloated ROM to 569 MB!!
- All the standard features of Stock Android will work, so it's like an AOSP ROM with the TouchWiz launcher & SystemUI
- Unique separate Aroma Add-on Package which includes all the removed Samsung 'bloatware' apps, so that you can flash at any time your missing app back... SEE POST #2
- ROM still includes the original Samsung Gallery, Camera, Dialer, Messages, Music, Alarm & Calculator apps
- Latest Google Android L Keyboard (You can install the Samsung keyboard with the Aroma add-on package from post #2)
- Latest SuperSu & BusyBox integrated
- KNOX fully removed
- Native Call Recording
- T-Mobile WiFi calling & VoLTE support (VoLTE needs the latest NF6 or newer firmware)
- Mobile Hotspot without any limitations (removed provisioning checks)
- Optional working Private Mode (with the Aroma add-on package)
- At every boot the FsTrim command will be excecuted, to keep your Phone smooth and the internal memory fast!
(Make sure you enable the included Universal Init.d app for this, or use any custom kernel!)
- SD-card write permissions
- Odexed (to keep it ART Runtime compatible, and to keep 100% original stock files = faster)
- ART Runtime works (Make sure you haven't the Xposed Framework installed when using ART)
- Option to add or remove the secondary symbols to/from the Samsung Keyboard
- The T-Mobile Carrier apps are removed from the ROM, but you can install them back with the XtreStoLite Aroma Add-on package (post #2)
- Carrier IQ apps free
- A few build.prop tweaks, like: Fewer WiFi scans, Faster Boot animation speeds, Disabled logging, Disabled call ring and Proximity delay.
- A few CSC tweaks, like: Enabled Call recording, Enabled camera shutter sound button & Enabled secondary symbols on the Samsung keyboard & Add 10 Extra Quick toggles to the notification panel.
- 100% Original Stock files (No modded APK, Framework & lib files), this gives you the most stable, fastest & smoothest experience.
- In the Aroma installer of the ROM you can choose between 5 different mods:
Advanced Reboot Menu
Remove Safe Sound warning
Remove S-Finder & QuickConnect buttons in the Notification drawer
3Minit Battery Mod (choose between 1070+ battery icons)
Modded Messages app with Screen On/Off toggle, Backup/Restore function, No auto SMS-to-MMS conversion & Increased Message limit from 100 to 1000 messages per hour

TIPS:
See Post #2 for the Aroma Add-on Package, so that you can choose which Samsung Apps / functions you want back.
You can use this Aroma add-on package at any time after flashing this rom (So you can first use the rom barebone and look for yourself which app/feature you want to have back)
The ART runtime is still experimental, and I don't recommend to use it. You will also get slightly better performance with the Dalvik runtime.
The aim of this ROM is to keep it as close to the stock firmware as possible. Because this way the ROM is the most stable you can get, and also you don't have any mods that can have influence on the performance and/or battery life of the ROM.
Also you can tweak the interface on your own nowadays with Xposed Framework plugins like: Wanam Xposed, GravityBox & Xposed G-TouchWiz.
With the Xposed G-TouchWiz plugin you can remove/hide the S-Finder & QuickConnect buttons in the notification panel.
And with the 'Galaxy S5 Widgets' Xposed module you can get widgets on your lock-screen.
So please don't ask in this thread if I can add an mod for those functions.
I strongly recommend to install SVoice with the Aroma add-on package, even if you don't use SVoice, just to disable the Home key SVoice launch delay in SVoice. (Svoice -> Menu key -> Settings -> De-select: Open via the home key)
After disabling this option, the home key will react much quicker when you press it.
You can disable the Svoice app if you want after this (Settings -> Application Manager -> All -> S Voice -> Disable), but do not delete the app data of it.
I recommend to set all the 3 Animation settings to 0.5 in the Developer settings menu, for much faster animations (and experience).
How to:
- Enable the Developer Options (Settings -> About Device -> 8x tap the Build number)
- Go to the Developer Options (Settings -> Developer options)
- Scroll down, and set:
'Window animation scale' to 0.5
'Transition animation scale' to 0.5
'Animator duration scale' to 0.5
- Enjoy the faster animations!
All the Google Play Store apps are NOT included in the ROM (or Aroma add-on package), you can download those by yourself in the Play Store.
If you choose to use the ART runtime, then the first reboot after you did choose the ART runtime will take a very long time to boot up. The bootscreen shows up longer than usual (around the 3 minutes), and after that the 'Android is upgrading...' screen will take a few minutes)

I would NOT recommend to restore system apps or app data of your apps with Titanium backup, only the apps themselves.
Restoring App data or System apps can cause many problems. (This applies to any ROM!

First thanks sir downloading now
I been on the International version for a couple of months and it has been my daily driver. Great ROM keep up the good work
Sent from my SM-G900T
Looks promising! downloading now!
thanks.
Welcome to the G900T section edgarf28.
Been using the G900F version since I can remember. Rock solid ROM and I love the flash-what-you-want approach. While this is a great ROM, I am one of the few who could careless about the T-Mobile specifics like VoLTE (no LTE or VoLTE here) and no signal issues so no need to pay T-Mobile (I pay each month to use their network, not mine) to use my own WiFi to make calls.
Anyone considering this should know that edgarf28 is very active in his threads, and very friendly. Again his ROMs are also very stable. I know T-Mobile specifics were most often requested and now those folks can have their fun. Thanks for doing this!
I have yet to trip my knox and flash a custom rom but this is very tempting...
Caught my attention. I love debated roms! I have to ask how is battery life??
I like what I am seeing, I going to give it a try
Sent from my SM-G900T using XDA Free mobile app
Anyone else having an issue when enabling hotspot you get a pop up saying setting has stopped?

Did you flash the "USA T-Mobile Carrier Apps" ?
It works for me on the G900F without T-Mobile Apps so that might not be the issue. I'll flash G900T and try it. I thought that wifi hotspot on G900T required a T-Mobile hotspot app?
edit: Just tested with the base install, this is indeed happening. I think G900T rom needs the T-Mobile Hotspot app. I don't think that is included with the addon package either.

It does require the app. If you remove or do not flash the T-Mobile apps, you will not be able to use the Hotspot. I'll look into pulling the apk when I have time and putting it on here for just the Hotspot app or maybe edgar will do it.
UPDATE!!!! It does not work even after re-flashing the T-Mobile apps in the Aroma package. I was a beta tester and I tested this and it worked on the beta rom before I removed the T-Mobile apps. I think it may break something when you remove them and then it cannot be fixed by just re-flashing. It may need a total rom re-flash. I will shoot edgar a note in case he misses this.

I just went back and flashed the beta rom and it still doesn't work. I am not sure what is happening. We'll have to let edgar dig in and fix.

Yeah I just tried it via titanium backup and it didn't work. Oh well...I don't really need it but it would be nice to have just in case.

Edgar will get it fixed I'm sure. He has 3 versions of this rom though so be patient. It's still by far the fastest and lightest rom. I tried Alliance and it was ok but had some lagginess compared to this. I found I could do most of my customization I wanted using Xposed and a different launcher. Battery life is very good too and I've seen some unreal results of other members using this rom and the Blaze kernel.
I will have an look at the Wi-Fi hotspot bug tomorrow people, I don't have much time for it right now.
But the Hotspot shortcut on the app drawer is not an separate app, it's just an shortcut to the function in the Settings app.
Sorry that the bug did slip in guys!
EDIT: Released v.1.2.1b of the ROM, and it should be fixed now, also removed the T-Mobile tethering restrictions.

NOTE: If You Are Having Trouble Flashing The Rom And Own A 64GB SD Card, Read The Post Below.
Jamison904 said:
You must have a 64gig SD formatted to ext. Samsung did us dirty and used a proprietary module for the 64 ext support. Unfortunately this is not open source and they refuse to release the code (or the company that owns it that is...) Long story short, you need to flash either stock kernel, KT's (forgot which one of his works as not all do, or you can flash my Infamous S4 kernel 2.0 - Download link, which is also amazing on battery. You can also formatted your SD to fat32.]

Are You Having Browser "Download Unsuccesful", "Unable To Capture Screenshot", Or Internal Storage Issues? Then Read The Post Below!
This is one problem that has happened to me before and having these types of problems has to do with your Internal Storage being "write-protected" which means that your Internal Storage has been locked to protect the data that's in it so editing or deleting anything from your Internal Storage will not work and anything that you do on your device such as doing screenshots or downloading any type of file onto your device will cause a automatic failure since the main directory is set to the Internal Storage, not your External SD Card.
TO FIX IT...
Make sure you plug your device to a computer and once you do this, back up everything from your Internal Storage onto your Desktop PC/Laptop. Once you do that, now your going to have to delete your whole Internal Storage files using a root explorer such as ES File Explorer, Root Explorer, Or anything that works for you and make sure you have it enabled to r/w [Read/Write Mode]. Now head into the directory that your Internal Storage files are located and then delete every single folder in it. Once your done doing that, now connect your device back to your Desktop PC/Laptop and then add back all of your Internal Storage files that you have saved on your PC back into your device, Reboot your device, and now everything should be working!

No network connection either. Mr Impossible had the same issues with his beta builds. I said "had" because I haven't tried his most recent beta 7 build. So I'm not sure if he fixed it.

I thought the radios are not built into the rom. As a result if I have vz radios now shouldn't they be there already?

I thought the radios are not built into the rom. As a result if I have vz radios now shouldn't they be there already?

Flashing the modem won't change anything. I went through all the troubleshooting I could on another beta port I linked to in order to get network services to connect. It's some other issue. What exactly is beyond me. I'm sure dubbsy would have more insight since he has handled ports.

The OP should be updated under "Known Issues" from None to the data issue, otherwise, some may not scroll through the thread and see it. Saves time and aggravation.
So will there be a fix today? I hope so cause I wanna use this rom.

Dude tell any 900F dev to make a stock rom with basic apps and tweaks and rest of the apps in the aroma. That will be same as Xtrestolite ROM.

Never flash Any Version Of OdexLite Without Reading Instructions And F.A.QAlways Take Backup Before Flashing! It can save lot of time in future!V4.2 requires clean flash!
OdexLite V4.2
OdexLite Aroma Addon V4.2
MiniMod for v4.2
Extra Debloat!
OdexLite Telegram Group
F.A.Q
1. Can you add blah blah blah mod to DeOdex Patch?
No, I won't.
2. Does VoLTE work?
No, and it will never work. If that's a must for you, switch to other ROM
3. I flashed Black Theme Ready Framework but my notifications aren't black! What should I do?
You need a theme that changes notification background to black. Like S8 Black or bodhisattva_
Or you can use something like Dark Notifications Overlay.
4. How to change resolution to Full HD?(To save some battery)
Download this app
run these codes
Code:
su
wm size 1080x1920
wm density 480
And reboot.
If you want to go back to 1440p:
Code:
su
wm size reset
wm density reset
And reboot.
Thanks to @toffik325 for hint
5. I chose network speed on Status Bar during installation but it's not working. What should I do?
Go to settings --> display --> Status bar --> Enable "Show network speed"!
6. I chose S8 Live Wallpaper but I can't find it.
Search in App Drawer
7. Root lost after sometime. What should I do? Updated
Go To Settings, Device Maintenance, Battery, Under App Power Monitor, add Magisk Manager to Unmonitored Apps.
Then go to Settings, Device Maintenance, Battery, Battery Usage, tap that 3dot menu on top right, Optimize Battery Usage, and Add Magisk Manager to Apps not optimized.
If these doesn't fix your issues and you still annoyingly lose root frequently, disable Magisk Hide from Magisk Manager. But then you'll lose safetynet
8. How to turn off or change duration of back and recents buttons backlight?
Download this app
9. How to make all apps multi-window?
Go to developer Options, scroll down, last option is "Force activities to be resizable", enable that!

Can you tell me which apps you chose during install?
What about battery life.. for this rom
Andycar N4 MX ROMOnly for Samsung Note 4 Snapdragon processorBased on the latest N910GDTS1DQH2 from Samsung
“If you respect your time as we do, come with us for something fast and lightweight.
We even do it without losing stock TW ROMs functionality, enhancing it in a way!”
Code:
***N4 MX ROM was tested by me before this release.
But I hold no responsibility for the thermonuclear war, failed alarm sounds on your phone or any of your files lost.
The decision to make mods to your for is made by YOU, not me.
Introduction
I thought it might be good to demonstrate my concept, which is:
Odexed custom ROM (the first TW MM ROM of this kind, to my best knowledge)
Very fast initial load (no ART cache building, so less than one minute boot time)
Embedded signature spoofing (switchable)
SafenyNet Pass and Magisk out-of-the-box
Every system app updated, including the latest Google apps
Can be switched microG instead of gapps (with Contacts/Calendar sync)
Some Multi-dpi system apps included (SamsungCamera3, Contacts - thanks to HardRock83)
And finally it comes with RAM RC6 kernel permissive by Ram121 modified for permissive adb pre-installed

FOR N910F flash the latest BQL2 bootloader
(https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569951729)
For N910T, N910W8 flash their respective datafixes and bootloaders
Links for N910T datafix: https://mega.nz/#!qcdnySyB!55DemVnZNSXDGiDFA_Gv4Ftb7Ra1ba0u4_V60fn5mKo
LINK : N910T, N910W, N910V & N910P datafix zip packages by louforgiveno <- these are meant to be used on S7 port ROMs, so you'd be better off editing build.prop manually to your N910(T/W/V/P) model.
To clear things up, Samsung has released software base recently almost at the same time for N910G and N910F devices.
In fact, these two bases are very close to each other.
===============
How to resolve "Triple clock issue"?. DO this:
1. In ROM manager app (Status bar) set up clocks. E.g. I had potato clock centered,while having stock clock disabled.
2. After the second clock will still be present in status bar; reboot!
3. After reboot, only one clock will be there. Enjoy.
Thanks for new rom
This will work on Tmobile N910T ?

hi @Andycar !
this rom is really smooth.
just if you could add some "usable" bloat like air command and other stuff which is really required by some users like me as a separate flashable zip.
will report battery life after a few days of testing.
thank you

Hi!
Thanks, that's appreciated.
In fact I have all those useful system apk sorted in folders.
Just started making an AROMA installer with those addons, stay tuned.
Thanks OP for this new ROM but before I try it can someone please explain the advantages of the included Kernel above an beyond stock stock one (that I have always tried to use as it tends to be less buggy)?

RamKernel will allow to pass Safety Net test with magisk, so you'll be able to, say, use Android Pay while keeping root. If you care about this...
Adbd permissive will allow you to run adb shell in permissive root mode always by default.
If you not care about this, you indeed may try the stock Kernel
Hey, i was meaning to try this rom out as i was looking all over the place for a good stock-based rom but i seem to be having problems flashing the modem+bootloader in odin. throws an error if flashing with AP or BL (i assumed AP at first since it's a combo of both). not sure what im doin wrong. i'm trying to flash from lineageos btw (i didnt have problems with flashing modem+bootloader there)

RECOVERY FLASHABLE BASE FEATURES
-Does away with warning on splash
-Debloated a fair whack but not too much
-rebased with each firmware update (when possible)
-rooted with magisk manager
-latest disabler from @ianmacd included (cheers for this and TWRP mate)
-flashes latest TWRP during Base flash
Changelog
v3.8 (3.7 unreleased)
- rebase to DUF8 - July patch
V3.6
- Main big change is that install options are now taken care of by the (now renamed) MASTER MODULE - you will be presented with your installation options on the first zip you install - these will then be picked up by the ROM MODULE that will automatically flash the relevant features selected in the MASTER MODULE flash.
- Rebased to DUDA - (next update will probably just be a rebase as new June firmware will be here v soon)
- Magisk v23 installed
- I have included the Audio Modification Library module for until they sort V4a out. The process to get v4a working is:
1 - Activate the AML module in magisk and reboot then when rebooted into system start v4a and install drivers (it will reboot)
2 - on reboot, disable the AML module and then reboot system once more
3 - when rebooted to system, start v4a and reinstall the drivers
4 - v4a should be functional after reboot
V3.5
This version brings a lot of automation to the install process. The mother module script will detect if the convertor has been flashed over that particular firmware and then make the convertor zip automatically if it is needed - in the case of reapplication of the rom or if i bring out an incremental update on the same firmware then this will mean that the convertor will be skipped by the mother module script and the rom module will be made only.
In short, the Mother module does my job by cooking the rom module and convertor mid flash
-Also rebased to DUD1 firmware
v3.4 Simple rebase to DUC8
- rebase to DUC8 firmware and most recent TWRP added
v3.3 no more disabler required after odin flash
- disabler files now added to odin files, no standalone disabler flash required anymore.
- rebased to DUC1 March patch
- workaround was required for wallpapers and will have this back to normal next time but end result is exactly the same. We're just using the DUB6 apk in this firmware no wallpapers were showing with DUC1 wallpaperres.apk
V3.2 another big update!!!! - in addition to the changes brought in recently, i have decided that patching system files instead of replacing them will be better going forward - the upshot for you guys is that the install process is even quicker now and the total package size has gone from 500mb to 240ish mb, yet the end result is exactly the same as any other release The convertor copies the relevant files from device and the rom module makes the amendments needed.
- fixes to backup and restore function
- tidied up script a bit
Now live in link in first post!!!
3.1- smallish update in comparison but still needed
- Home up added to goodlock package in rom - this incorporates task changer
- fixed Auto backup backing up previous rom options when new Rom Module selection option is selected (i.e no to restoring)
- Will now NOT install if any firmware version other than the one matching the rom is present
3.0- addition of Rom Module options backup/restore and rebase to OneUI 3.1:
- I have created a new Rom Module backup and restore function which will read the setup of the last rom module install (v2.6 onwards only) and ask you if you want to restore your previous install options. It will also backup any CSC features choices you make. This was not easy due to the complexity of my other function
-soundassistant updated
-some script optimisations and tidy ups
-completely rebased to DUB6 OneUI 3.1 - hence V3.0
-CTS fix working perfectly and is included as an install option
2.5 - big refinement on changes in 2.4
- module base convertor now installs the cts fix module automatically and systemlessly
- the Mother Module sends the convertor to internal/420rom which will then delete itself after flash and replace it with the rom module in internal/420. This is because it could be confusing with so many folders
- convertor now clears any old 420rom modules
- the convertor checks for old internal 420rom directory and clears it if detected then sets up a new one.
- more general automation and tidy ups in scripts applied
- advanced power mode app added for booting to recovery on the fly easier
2.4 - Big format change - see second post
2.3.2 - incremental update
- Added CTS safteynet fix by @kdrag0n - (huge thanks for your contribution to the community man!!!) - thread
2.2-2.3.1 (unreleased xmas testing)
Rom-module
- rebased files to CUA2 Jan firmware
- moved all install and extract code to functions which are each called when you select an install option for the magisk rom module features - main upshot is that it saves a **** load of time installing the module. The long boring extraction list before the install options is now a past nightmare
- tidying up the script big time - variables defined for mod extraction paths etc - makes debugging much easier haha
Module Base
- rebased to CUA2 Jan firmware
- Latest TWRP from Ianmacd included from now on - the base will automatically flash this.
- updated disabler included
- Magisk updated to V21.2
v2.1 (unreleased) & 2.1.1
- Full script rewrite for a big big change in cscfeatures implementation method
- csc features are now selectable should you not wish to install all of them
- updated source to CTL5
- CSC mod fixes
- bugs and performance fixes
v1.1/1.1.1
-changed default wallpaper
-compressed mods in module zip to save space
-added debloat to updater script - debloat is carried out after image flash (fixed issues in 1.1.1)
-general theme refresh
-fixed sound assistant not installing
v1-b6-b10
-added CTS fix
-added wallpapers
V1-b5
-implemented updated 3minit install procedure @starbucks2010 - cheers for the help and code for my flashable zip
-added updated YoutubeV manager etc - install youtubeV from manager is recommended
-tidied up install script
V1-b3&4
-unreleased, research mules for failed patch testing :laugh:
V1-b2
- initial xda release
what's next? & Known Bugs we can't do much about or will sort eventually
-N980F/N985F support
-Google edition of the module
-incorporation of further goodies into magisk rom and base
-if A SYSTEM APP hasn't been removed, try uninstalling it you should now be able to - any updates installed over an original system app remain as they are data apps following an update

Install procedure for V2.4 onwards has changed drastically as has the format of the module base itself
From now on N20U and soon on N10 and Tab, there will be no more 4gb zip files to flash (im sick of the time wasted waiting for copying and flashing lol) - the total size of files has gone from 4.5GB to 450mb but you will have exactly the same end result!!!!!!
I have created an "Mother Module" or "MM" which, when flashed in Magisk, places a (Magisk installed) Rom Module zip and a (TWRP flashable) Module Base Convertor zip into their own folder on internal/420.
The next thing to do is to go to TWRP and locate the Module Base Convertor zip and flash it. This will apply all debloat and This will also trigger a marker that will allow the rom module to be flashed.
Once the first zip is flashed, you can then go and install the rom module as normal in Magisk
I will be providing rooted stock firmware to start the whole thing off
BEFORE YOU START. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLASH THIS OVER A DIFFERENT DEVS ROM - IT WILL CAUSE ISSUES. BACKUP APPS AND DO A FRESH STOCK INSTALL FIRST - that's even if you get past the failsafe
Install process assuming you are on matching firmware to the released Rom and rooted
1, Flash the mother module in Magisk - reboot to TWRP
2, In TWRP, flash Module Base Convertor located in internal/420- this will apply all the modifications and debloat to your rom that i used to on the Old full size zips
3, reboot and install rom module in Magisk as normal- all done!!!
Install Process assuming you are coming from earlier 420rom:
1, Using the odin files i have provided, flash BL, Modded AP, CP and HOMECSC in Odin with AUTOREBOOT off
2, Keeping phone plugged in, hold vol down and power to exit download and immediately hold vol up and power to enter TWRP.
3, flash Multidisabler & reboot.
4, Flash the mother module in Magisk - reboot to TWRP
5, In TWRP, flash Module Base Convertor - this will install a few generic niceties seen on the module bases of old (No red text etc) and debloat a fair whack of crap out
6, reboot and install rom module in Magisk as normal- all done!!!
on a side note........................
How i patch and add TWRP to the Stock AP file - aka making stock rooted odin flashable files
Producing a stock rooted firmware is really easy and i would hope it would be part of people's standard updating process from now on & will take most people 10 mins if instructions on Xda are read through but I will make them nonetheless.
1, extract firmware zip so you have BL, AP, CP and HOMECSC visible (Put CSC aside)
2, copy AP to internal on phone and patch with Magisk (install -> select and patch file). Once done, copy the Modded AP file (also called magisk patched tar) that Magisk produced from /downloads on your phone's internal storage back to your firmware folder - call this one Modded AP or whatever.
3, get the latest TWRP and rename to recovery.img, drop the image into the magisk_patched.tar (delete recovery.img.lz4 if present)
4, extract the BL folder and delete vbmeta.img.lz4 in the extracted folder, pull out vbmeta.img from magisk_patched.tar and copy to the BL extracted folder - re-tar this BL folder using 7z. DO NOT REMOVE VBMETA.img from magisk_patched tar - call this one modded BL file or whatever.
5, you can now go ahead and flash Modded BL, Modded AP, CP and Homecsc in odin

hello maaaatttteeee!!!!
Hi, I just wanted to know, with this rom, can you edit and modify system apps? Because am unable to do it, when I try to remove a system app, it won't let me. With the s20 this is fixed installing the vbmeta_disabled file.
Looks nice

Can you possibly point me to this? could find this very handy (if it's shareable)
Thanks for the work.
Need a detailed installation guide.
Hi, are there any instructions for flashing this rom, because am flashing, but when finished and rebooting, it goes into bootloop.

Install procedure in second post
Dex not working
Samsung DEX doesn't seem to be working, tried to connect it to Samsung tv, but won't work. Any idea how to fix this?
Play store crash... Goodlock navbar not supported
and i cant take screenshot everywere it says... U cant bcoz of security policy.....
Nice working rom waitin more updates
ok now i have gotten past a tonne of the quirks this new device is throwing out so will be releasing an updated base and module shortly.
- any users of 3minit wont have to install the apk manually - just flash a zip i will provide and then select the option in the module install steps - took me a while to get my head around the /system mounting lol
- add themed secsettings
- add wallpapers
- take a look at Dex issue - can anyone else confirm this issue?
