Installation of Custom ROMs from spegelius - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
Spegelius has three custom roms for your shiny S4A unit.
AOSP_4.3.1_I9295_spegelius_v0.7.1.zip
cm-10.2-20140218-UNOFFICIAL-jactiveltexx.zip
Slim-jactiveltexx-4.3.build.2.1-UNOFFICIAL-20140209-1333.zip
Gapps
Slim_AIO_gapps.4.3.build.2.zip - slimrom.net
gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip - goo.im/gapps
Slim + either gapps -> Google Drive will crash. Other than that the usual known bugs.
AOSP + generic gapps -> Google drive working good. Minus some of the advanced tweaks you see from CM
CM Rom + generic gapps -> Google drive working good
Note: Switching CPU governor to msm-dvcs will crash the device on all three roms.

[Q] Google Apps

Do they call it play store or g apps? I just installed the latest slim rom in my N7000, where can I find the latest apps store? shall I use one that is modified to work with my slim N7000, or the apps are usually the same for all roms?
thnx
Slim GApps include PlayStore, which you should flash after the ROM.
ROM + GApps > Profit!

[Q] CM 10.2

Hi all
I had been flashing CM 10.1.3 stable on Galaxy Note GT7000 would like to update to 10.2 what steps are required for the same. It has in built options for updating under system setting/aboutphone/updates. As of now its not highlighting cm 10.2 which i assume it will soon as it is just released. my question are :-
1. If updated through system settings, will it effect my data and install apps
2. What about the GAAPs for the said version of CM 10.2 or have to install again compatible to it
3. If update not available by default, where can i get the same along with GAAPS and how to flash the same

Unlocking your bootloader and installing Clockworkmod Recovery
Vital step for flashing ROMs. Unlocking your bootloader is also important so you can flash Clockworkmod Recovery.
You first need to download L7CWM.rar
You also need to have USB Debugging on on your phone, which you can activate by going to Menu>Settings>Developer Option>USB Debugging.
Move the package to the Desktop.
Extract the files to C://, the root destination.
Now connect your phone to PC via USB Cable.
Run the extracted Flash_Bootloader.bat, and it'll unlock your device's bootloader.
Your phone now and should reboot, in which after it's done you can run the extracted Flash_Recovery.bat.
To continue flashing recovery, follow the on-screen directions.
Reboot your device. Your phone now has Clockworkmod Recovery!
Getting into Clockworkmod Recovery.
Okay, now you have Clockworkmod Recovery installed on your device. Here's how to actually get into Clockworkmod Recovery.
Getting into Clockworkmod Recovery Manually using buttons.
Power Off your device, or do a battery pull and wait 10 seconds if you're stuck somewhere.
Press down and hold FIRMLY on both volume buttons and the home button.
Keeping the other buttons pressed, now press and hold the power button.
Hold down all buttons FIRMLY until the phone vibrates. The boot logo should appear and soft button should light up.
If Clockworkmod Recovery doesn't run, do a battery pull, wait, and restart.
Flashing Process
General process for flashing a new custom ROM, but be sure to follow any other specific directions the devs say to do. This is assuming you already have your bootloader unlocked and is using CWM Recovery.
Create a Nandroid backup (highly recommended).
Wipe data/factory reset.
Wipe your cache.
Wipe the Dalvik cache. You may enter a bootloop if you don't wipe your caches.
Enter "Mounts and storage" and mount /system and format /system.
Flash your gApps (be sure to have the correct version).
Reboot.
Wait. First boot is always long.
Here's also a link that explains a lot of stuff like how to unlock your bootloader and install CWM Recovery. link​
Nicely organized, all simple and nice. Don't forget to add how to unlock bootloader and about recoveries too.

[INFO] Roms that work on Multirom

Hello everybody, sometimes, I flash my legendary Nexus 5, and test roms con Multirom forma ser their stability only, and think... Which ROMs are functional with pseudo kernel (Boot inject) from Multirom?
Based on my experiences says the following:
If you use the bootpatches for KitKat, you've problems with more of two Roms (Excluded the "Internal" *ROM base where you have been installed Multirom*); and should be reinstall it.
If you use bootpatches for Lollipop, all your Roms have battery drains and some errores for read files allocated in another Roms.
If you use bootpatches for Marshmallow, al works "perfecty", less when you try install another ROM based on MM.
Now:
Compatibility:
Multirom is Compatible with Stock Kernels only, FrancoKernel, Experience Kernel and others haven't a bootpatch for support that TWRP version.
All Roms based on KitKat, Stock, CAF and Cyanogenmod, included Sailfish OS, Ubuntu Touch and Firefox OS.
All Roms based on Lollipop that don't use FrancoKernel by default.
Almost all Marshmallow Roms (Some roms doesn't boot on Multirom), esencially Cyanogenmod based Roms.
Almost all Nougat Roms (LineageOS and "forkeds" Included), in Hammerhead CAF, non-CAF bases Roms, works too; CAF based Roms on Normal Nexus 5, and some based on Aosp, "Developer Options" doesn't works (Use Android Terminal for enable that options).
Oreo 8.0 Roms (Not Aosp Based) works only.
The Kernel and Bootloader update (I guess), don't leave that 8.1 Roms works on Multirom, the logic reason really IDK.
With supported Roms, sometimes "Developer Options" doesn't work; other times, SystemUI has Stopped is the reason (Included LineageOS 15.1 from @P4Block), but, in general, works without many problemas.
hello i have a serious question, so if i have 2 roms, and root and also flash xposed on my primary does that mean that my second rom will automatically have xposed aswell or is it up to me to decide whether i want to have it on secondary aswell, because i want to have my primary one with root and xposed but my secondary i want without root or xposed, so is that possible please?

Is possible.
Root Bridge (SuperSU or Magisk) and Xposed only works on the Rom that you choose for install it.
In my case, I'm using Kitkat (With root, but without Xposed), and Nougat (With root and Xposed).
