[ROM][JB][JOP40D] 4.2.1 stock (deodexed, rooted, busybox)

I noticed there wasn't any stock, rooted and deodexed android 4.2.1 for the nexus 4 so I thought I share the one I created for myself.
Features:
Rooted
Deodexed
Zipaligned
Insecure boot
Busybox
Download:
mako_4.2.1_Deodexed.zip - 300.80 MB

just to clarify, this is a simple flash through CWM/TWRP right?

I didn't try on my phone but it's working on my laptop.

Does this include gaps? and if so does the wallet app work with root?

download speed kinda slow :-\

If I used this rom would I get the next android update?

Yes it does, it's a stock firmware that's been pre-rooted and deodexed. I didn't remove anything.
Wallet should work fine.

No you won't. The official updates are patches that need to be installed through unmodded firmware. It's very easy to go back using this kit if need be. Also, I'm sure myself or another member would have a pre-rooted version of the update pretty quickly after it's release so it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Thanks.

I love my stock rooted rom the way it is, I just want it deodexed. Could I just flash this over it? Or do you think that'll cause me issues without a wipe? I'll probably just end up backing up and giving it a go. Haha.

You'll have to wipe. Odex files won't be cleared out otherwise.

Just clear cache/dalvik. odex files are on the system partition and do get cleared when installing a new rom.

I love you and i love that this ROM did not wipe the phone
I was running stock+root, updated no issues

When i flash this will it be the same as getting the ota except for the fact that this one is deodexed? Also this has all the fixes the ota has correct??

Yes this is the same as OTA just deodexed and is rooted with busybox.

[SOLVED] Anyone had this bug?

On JB .140 every time I reboot it acts like I've wiped the dalvik cache but I haven't. I get android is upgrading for 57 apps?

[ROM] 4.4 I9505GUEUBMKG [STOCK] Rooted for the Google Edition Galaxy S IV ONLY.
[ PLEASE DO NOT ASK OR PM ME ABOUT PORTING THIS OR FLASHING THIS TO ANY OTHER PHONE BUT THE I9505G ]
This is 100% stock I9505GUEUBMKG 4.4 Kit Kat. Nothing special here. We are currently experiencing a few bugs flashing this so in order for me to start building Kit Kat I would like to start from scratch and get good feedback. [ Please PM me any Logcats ] post bugs as reported in the this thread.

Thanks to : @SamuriHL for his Odin Firmware package and @occupational_hazard for testing and support.

INSTRUCTIONS
FIRMWARE
1. It is best to update your firmware before you flash this ROM. Due to the secure bootloader we cannot flash modems. Please see this THREAD to update your modem to MKG. You can also Odin to stock with SamuriHL 4.4 Odin firmware package which is HERE. This is the exact same thing, all I did was unpack his image and make it into a ROM to flash via Custom Recovery.
[ THIS IS BETA UNTIL I CAN CONFIRM CALLS AND MEDIA WORK AS WAS REPORTED THEY DID NOT. PLEASE DO A BACKUP FLASH AND REPORT BACK]
DOWNLOAD [ROM] HERE

Are you now on this rom??

This ROM is from the OTA that was pushed out and then it was put into an Odin package which I unpacked and created. I read ktoonsez thread and I don't think this is what he is looking for but feel free to pull it if you like.

Hey MJ, does this flash the modems, as well? I didn't know if that was possible in custom recovery and I didn't see it mentioned either way in the OP. Sorry if this is a stupid question.
UPDATE: I downloaded it and took a look. Just system and boot for the curious. Very neat!

We cannot flash modems in custom recovery due to the secure boot loader. This is unpacked MKG just in ROM for flashing ..system, boot.
BTW can you verify this works without any issues I got one bug report calls and media did not work which is strange because this is not modified

I can't get sound to work for the life of me after flashing this. I've tried re-flashing, wiping, and the usual. Everything else seems to work. Data, WiFi, GPS, BT, no FC's except for phone app... Everything seems to work except for outgoing/incoming sound so my phone doesn't work as a phone.
Any suggestions? //I can submit logs & screenshots if wanted.

You could manually install it from SD card, but you'd have to be stock. I think I'll give it a shot and give up Cataclysm for a few days to check out the new camera fixes.

You don't have to have stock recovery. I've got TWRP and it flashed just fine. Put the zip on your SD. Boot into TWRP/CWM, flash as you would any other zip.
BUT, you WILL lose root.
*edit* I should also add that other than TWRP and root, I was completely stock.

Cool! Did you lose user data?

How to solve bluescreen problem in CWM 6.0.3.7

Many people (me too) have the bluescreen problem after flashing ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.3.7. After several tries I found a solution. I followed these steps:
1. Flash stock froyo with odin,reboot and wipe data/cache.
2. Flash stock gingerbread (xwkts) with odin ,reboot,wipe data/cache.
3.Root the phone and reboot
4.Flash CWM 5.0.2.6 (by using stock recovery) and reboot
5. Flash custom ROM (I flashed CM10.2)
6. Finally flash CWM 6.0.3.7 with CWM Manager App.
I don't know if all these steps are needed but they worked for me!!!!
If someone knows an easier solution I'll be glad!

Guys I'm sorry but it doesn't work. I thought it worked because at the first cwm 6.0.3.7 boot I didn't get the bluescreen. So I wrote this thread but after a reboot I sadly got the bluescreen.
I'm sorry guys but I was so excited. I hope someone else will find a working solution !
