Root [T-Mobile] Amazing S4 Dev.

So even though is not directly for the T-Mobile variant it supports it? I say this because of the model name.


Found my answer is for the international s4 compatible i see i like the white dialer is that what you have?

Correct and correct:)
Remember the Tmo S4 is the Google edition variant as well...lots of romage/dev on this phone.
Lg Esteem what:thinking::D

Thanks. Appreciate it. I'm also reading a lot of problems with 3Minit. If I bought the app would the framework work ok?

I bought it to support the dev:thumbup:
Have never had any issues with it. Most times it is a question of what framework the ROM is on ATM. The ROM must be on the same version as the 3Minit version otherwise some functions don't work properly.

Lol yes I understand. Just commenting about the problems I been reading about. I take it that paid version of the app gets updated with the rom?

Not necessarily. The paid version gets the app updated, but the framework doesn't necessarily need to be new. It can just be an update to the app and not to the ROM

Looks like a cool rom my question usually before I flash is What are the bugs if any? Just wondering if this is worth the set up. It's kinna sad that with android you cannot have something that would backup your home screens and personal settings and apply them after a rom flash. I understand why that is, I am willing to give it up in the name of customizability. Not sure if that is even a word lol!


Anyway are there any known bugs coz I want to give this a test? :)

Actually you can save your screen & app data with rom toolbox pro, which is what I use. As long as you're just going from one TW rom to another, all app data will be backed up.
What I do when trying out a new rom, is backup all that I want to save (data + app), install the new rom, immediately go to play store & stop all the updates. then I load up rom toolbox pro & reload my backups. All apps & data that I saved are back running. Now you still have to put certain widgets back on your screen, but the user data will still be saved.
