EhnDroix IV by Nitrox-developers -Kernel 3.4.X [JB] [Android 4.3.1] Based on CM 10.2


ROM based: CM10.2 Alpha 3
Kernel: 3.4.X [Android 4.3.1 JB]

Announcement: 
05/11/2013: The latest version (13.11.5) shows boot loop when flash with S4 pack (additional package)
07/11/2013: The latest version (13.11.5) shows force close of keyboard. Try to reinstall the keyboard app (if you know how to do it). Or else, I recommend to flash back to the older version.

This is a good ROM for  those who are not satisfy with the CM 10.2 Alpha 3.
There are many bugs on CM10.2 Alpha 3 but I did not find any big problems on using this ROM which is also based on CM 10.2 Alpha 3. It is very smooth after it is flashed with K^Kernel EX 390 MB with the corresponding to the android version.

The major problem is the battery. The battery consumption is high but smooth as it is clocked to around 1700+ MHz with Ondemand CPU governor.


Warning: Flashing ROM will void your warranty. I do not responsible for any damage to your phone. Flash at your own risk.

Installation:
  1. Download the ROM from XDA website or this is the ROM direct download link.
  2. Download the EhndroGapps and Kernel (if you want to flash with a new kernel and my recommendation is always K^Kernel)
  3. Put the downloaded ROM, EhndroGapps and Kernel into one folder with a proper name.
  4. Transfer them to the external SD Card.
  5. Boot into the clockworkmod (CWM).
  6. Wipe data.
  7. Wipe dalvik cache. (Remember dalvik cache is in the advance setting)
  8. Flash the ROM.
  9. Flash the EndroGapps.
  10. Wipe data and dalvik cache.
  11. Flash the Kernel (If you want to)
  12. Reboot and enjoy.
(If you do not know what is CWM or do not know how to operate it, read this Article before you proceed)

  2. OTA will automatically detect the update and press Okay
  3. You will see it is stated that it is downloading. (There is no downloading bar or progression is shown but no worry, it is downloading) -It takes some time because the file is over 150+ MB
  4. After that press wipe cache and wipe data.

  6. Flash the EhndroGapps again.
  7. Wipe Cache and Dalvik.

    • Every Gapps can work but I personally choose inverted and there is no problem on it.
  3. The OTA download the ROM and locate the new downloaded ROM into the SD card. Can I move it to the external SD card to save space for internal SD card?
