I take no credit for this ROM. All credit goes to the developer @edgarf28 and his team and testers.
Keeps knox intact, Stable, and its fast!
Center clock, Battery mods, and color customizations galore!

Install for us AT&T users is very simple but funky at the same time. Just wipe and flash with flash-fire, like normal.
Then go through the aroma set up. The ROM doesn't officially support Flash-fire but I have seen a few others in the OP from our AT&T locked Boot-loaders who have flashed this just fine also.
The funky part of the install is aroma itself. It works but flashes and flickers a lot. You can read and make out all the selections, you just have to deal with the flashing. After the install is complete click the reboot option in Aroma and it will reboot. First boot as usual takes up to 5 minute but sometimes only a couple minutes.
After flashing the ROM, use the add on zip to get back any Samsung apps that you want to have installed. This ROM is super debloated so things like themes and all cast have to be added through the add on zip Along with either the Alliance framework, or 3minit framework. I am using the Alliance framework because I like the ability to fully customize the toggles and other things more than having a bunch of different battery's to choose from.
The mod add on ZIP
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347761090
Also works, but If you click the reboot option after the install it will freeze up and not restart. I dont know why it does that but just click the reboot option off and restart it yourself.
When using the alliance framework and changing the drop down toggles
do not choose "OTA flashable" toggles in the drop down menu or your UI will FC so bad you have to wipe it all and reflash everything from scratch.
Support for the rom can be found in the Developers thread.
Updated the download link to the xtrestolite 1.5 which is the only working version for AT&T
Credit to: @moofasa29 for first bring this to my attention:good:
I can try to answer your questions, since I have gone through the OP repeatedly before flashing this. But I think your questions will be better answered in and by the OP.
I also got Viper4Android working and the edge feeds for music and quick launch with no issues just following their OP threads.
This ROM is sweet so far, I have had no issues with anything since my re-flash due to the toggle issue.

He hasn't responded and if he does and he isn't happy with me posting a redirect post I will delete the post.

I did that previously with the same issue. I didn't resolve the issue until I opted to keep the stock framework as oppose to the alliance. Thanks for the help though.
Anyone else having GPS issues? It seems to half work. It will locate me, but not track when moving. So, nav is broken
Searching for GPS
I'm surprised it even works considering it's for the G925F lol... Then again, maybe it's just lame Verizon that causes issues with flashing a ROM from the G925F...

Stock messaging app definitely isn't there. Why bother removing it?
Edit: Yikes a lot of the UI hacks for xposed are likely going to need updating. 314 breaks the hidden apps slide out menu (not the fault of this rom developer, but I'm sure it could be important for some other users planing to upgrade from 402).

Thanks for the feedback. It was not removed. When I tested the rom, I noticed the missing stock messaging app and reported it to dev. However, when you look into the rom's system\priv-app, the conversation.apk is there so it had us both stumped as to why it is not getting flashed.
Hopefully, we'll get the fix from the dev soon.
Thanks again for reporting.

It seems to work great otherwise. I just rolled back to my backup of .402 because I got used to how my UI was setup using GEM and Xperia Xposed modules. Once they get updated (GEM in particular) I'm sure I'll be back.

I see your point and I myself use these modules. However, different people have different preferences. Therefore, some devs refrain from adding mods like Xposed in the rom as users can add themselves after flashing the rom. I know that @dipesh1502 has plans to provide add ons (themes, sound mods etc.) in Aroma in Themes and Apps section. So, I'm sure he can consider your request.

If the apk is still in the folder, cant you just manually install the App?

CAUTION!! This ROM is mostly made for developers and people interested in developing for Samsung Gear Live. I take no responsabilities for possible damages to your device.
Hi everyone.
I open a new thread here in General because I have not enough posts for posting in Development, and I don't want to spam other threads only for posting there. Moderators can move this if they want.
We have here the first Custom ROM for Samsung Gear Live: OctamodWear
Currently we have very few new features, but this is only the beginning.
Features
- OctamodWear 0.2
- KMV78Y based
- Fully deodexed
- Root
- Busybox
- WearControl, the system management app. Reboot2Recovery is gone; install WearControl from PlayStore to ensure you always have the latest version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=octathorp.wearcontrol
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled
- OctamodWear 0.1
- KMV78X based
- Root
- Busybox
- Reboot2Recovery, it's an app made by me that let you reboot in recovery mode (interesting for use with custom recoveries).
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled (mainly, for developing purposes. I included them because it was a pain to install again with each data-wipe during tests).
Important
- Superuser permissions (root) are enabled by default, without Superuser or similar app. So, whatever app that you install and require root permissions will obtain them. That's due to the fact that there is no Superuser app for Android Wear yet.
- We need unlocked bootloader in order to be able to install the ROM (fastboot oem unlock).
- This system (Android Wear) is still very recent, and there are many things we don't know, despite its similarities with Android.
Work-in-progress...
- Get a better battery consumption.
- Improve performance
- Other things I have not thought about yet
Installation
If you don't have unlocked bootloader, follow this steps:
- Connect using ADB and run "adb reboot bootloader"
- In the bootloader screen, run "fastboot oem unlock". Warning!! This will wipe the device.
- Once you have unlocked the bootloader, the next step is to flash the provided system.img, using "fastboot flash system system_octamodWear.img"
- Done!

TWRP for our smartwatch (thanks to Dees_Troy): http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-live/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2828336
Original thread: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=868149
I will try to help you if you need it, but please, there are a lot of pages on the web where you can get information about ADB drivers or bootloader unlocking effects, so please, use Google.
Furthermore, I don't have much free time due to work and personal life, so this ROM will not have a very fast development. My main purpose is to give people something they can start working with, and make a great development community.
Enjoy it!

It is pre rooted as stated above. And yes its very good. Includes a file manager, which is handy....
Dev, presumably we should not install any OTA's?
This is the best day EVER!! Thank you so very much!!
Hey @octathorp I just received an update a couple days ago and did it... I assume the update would not be compatible with this ROM, or can I still install this ROM? Thanks!
Update is KMV78Y by the way.
Hi.
I have not received the update yet, so i don't really know. It should work well, because this is only system.img, but i'm gonna update the base rom as soon as I receive the update.
One thing i forgot to post some days ago... I've made an app that lets you reboot your device into recovery or bootloader, as well as changing CPU governors. It's Reboot2Recovery replacement, and it will be included in next release. Meanwhile, you can get the app from Play Store, searching "WearControl" (sorry i cannot post links yet).
I'll update the OP.

Return to Stock?
What would be the best way to return to stock? My guess would be to flash the system img that Adam Outler posted but want to make sure that I'm correct. I got excited and flashed this without backing up on TWRP first.
Hey is it possible to put the ROM in flashable form for TWRP?! Would make it much easier to install

Battery life should be the same as stock, as there are no power optimizations yet, but you could try WearControl with powersave mode instead.

I dont actually use any file sharing sites myself
Found it in the S6 unified development thread here: (hope the link goes through)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-3-t3119968
From stock, rooted (pingpong) rom applied rom and add-on files with flashfire. They use an aroma installer which causes a lot of screen flicker (for me at least), but it's not impossible to get through it. You will see some black screens and extended reboot first time so be patient.
YMMV, but it's running great for me.
UPDATE: flashed at least 6 times over the weekend (rom and add-ons, so does that count as 12?). Had one hiccup where it appeared to hang on exiting the aroma installer for reboot. Gave the phone the 3 finger salute (vup, vdown, power) and it rebooted to continue the install. No knox trip and is as safe as flashing anything else under flashfire.
Thank you for the share and taking the risk...

Fellow ATT Users, ask away if you want to know anything about this ROM!
I believe it's in the rom. The rom creator has it slated for fix in next release.
One ATT user in the original post claims to have no problem, where most others do (myself included). This user also accidently flashed some other rom(s). He's not clear about clean / dirty flashing or wipes. I'll just wait for v1.6 to see how it goes.
There is a flashable add-on pack to restore the removed items noted by NizzleFish98.

Does it still have "my files" app? I like the way it is for non root stuff
It looks like you can add some of the stuff back with aroma, if im reading right.
Does it have the extra camera downloads or can you at least add them.
Fingerprint I could live with out
I like with alliance you seem to be able to modify lots of stuff.'
Does tether work and "OK Google" (I had problems with" OK Google" after installing tethering zip"
Currently downloading files and backing up now.
do I just wipe and flash using flash fire like I did with clean ROM
Running clean ROM right now
Thank for the Input

Do I just flash the aroma add on package with flashfire?

Not too sure about the addons as I have no need for them but yes everything is used with FlashFire. Just wipe and select zip and boom, you'll be sent to a setup mode that can be a little tricky but not too hard. If you figure out the addons, let me know how they go. Cheers!

Does it still have "my files" app? I like the way it is for non root stuff
It looks like you can add some of the stuff back with aroma, if im reading right.
Does it have the extra camera downloads or can you at least add them.
Fingerprint I could live with out
I like with alliance you seem to be able to modify lots of stuff.'
Does tether work and "OK Google" (I had problems with" OK Google" after installing tethering zip"
Currently downloading files and backing up now.
do I just wipe and flash using flash fire like I did with clean ROM
Running clean ROM right now

You flash the stripped down rom (500mb or so) let it boot up then use flashfire again with the 800mbish add-on zip and just pick whatever you want back ,like peel rmote control app or w/e you want. It's super easy.

That's weird, it works fine for me and I'm running 1.5. Bizaro world for sure.
Went from Dennis' Rom did full wipe (except internal storage) and flashed the ROM only. All worked perfectly. I then went and flashed the aroma zip after all my apps from google were restored.
maps/gps, incall audio, and fingerprint scanner all 100%
Thanks!

Are you sure GPS works as it should? Could you install GPS TEST from playstore and confirm that multiple satellites are locking on. I have installed three times today and I get some partial GPS function, if you consider one or two streets over acceptable.
Also can you forward calls in your phone settings?
yeah gps is not working for me! clean odin install and everything.
Having a bunch of FC's after the Addon package. Any ideas what's going on?
Work great con my att galaxy s6
GPS broken here as well .. But wow ... This is by far the best ROM ive used in a while. I did use the add-on package as well.

Is this basically the same build that gtbluesky posted or are there changes that he hasn't posted?

He already has the right gapps selected when you click the link in the description. So you just click that link and click download. I wouldn't flash just yet though. I can't figure out how to get the rom in English.
@bxfxf The Rom flashed okay and everything but I don't see an option for English. Everything is in Chinese. Can you tell us how to change it?

Odd. when i first flashed it i saw the MI logo with Chinese characters at the bottom and a progress bar. however when the bar progressed fully the next screen was a language selection screen that allowed me to select English right away. im not using it as my main at the moment, dual booting it, so i can get through work today fine but when i get home later in the day ill wipe it and see if i get the same option or if its all in chinese.

I figured out the problem. For some reason when I use the gapps in the op it skips past the setup screen. I tried it two separate times with a clean wipe. I then tried it without flashing gapps and I was able to go through setup allowing me to choose English. It's strange, I didn't know gapps could cause this behavior.

Ahh okay, that makes a lot of sense now.. I skipped gapps because I had the wrong package. Perhaps when I get home later I can look how to change the language when in the os and give you some instructions

i was going to post an elaborate array of screen shots of where to click to get to the language settings when i had an idea. Flash the rom.. set it up.. then flash gapps.. (sorry if you already figured this out and im just stating the obvious but after taking all the screenshots i was happy when the easier way struck me.)
Anyone know why this ROM is based on KK and not LP?

Have you had any data troubles? Is there anything you have to do other than selecting LTE?

Yeah, I've had no luck getting data to work.
On a side note being that I never used a miui ROM before I was really excited to see a custom ROM that retains all the spen features (and other touchwiz features) as well as the stock camera from touchwiz. I don't necessarily love the iOS look of miui but I don't hate it either; I just enjoy trying new things when I feel my phone is getting stale.

Same here. I'm with you though, it's always awesome to have something new to flash. I'm really excited about a Note 5 port or an updated AOSP but MIUI has a cool vibe to it. There's even a 1080p mode that's pretty interesting in the settings that seems to iron out all graphical issues that most have when altering resolution. Just something to tinker with.
There is another MIUI created by another guy that apparently has data and everything in the snapdragon Note 4 section. I accidentally downloaded the wrong version the other day so I haven't been able to try it (the download took forever for some reason). I'll let you know if it turns out usable.
This is a beautifull rom. I love it.
But why am i not able to get Data. It says i have 4G LTE connection. it has enabled the mobile data. I just can't seem to get it to work. and as posted by others, they can't get Data either.
The only thing i am able to think of is that the APN settings need to be fixed.
My APN list is empty. If i add the correct listing, it disapears. if i add one that is incorrect it stays. When Restore Default APN, it blanks out the settings. when going into the actual file that holds these settings, it looks full. It appears that the list is there., it just won't get recognized by the system. I am pretty new at this, so could someone please help. it looks as though this thread is not being maintained, but hopefully we can get some help here.
Working Data
I finally got Data to work on MIUI7
MIUI Version: 7 5.11.3 | Beta
I had to add the correct APN information. and the APN information that Verizon gives, or that i could find anywhere online was not what i needed. I got the information from an app i downloaded.
everything was normal for APN settings except i had to add:
APN Type: default,hipri,internet,mms
The hipri threw me for a loop, but after that, it started working.
Can anyone else try this and see if they get data back or if there was something else I did in conjunction with this to get data?
I'm happy to give this a spin later today and see if I can get data working with your method. Does everything else work in this build?
Yes this data fix works!
Please forgive my desperate lunge towards any sliver of hope of diversity on the Note 4.
I don't see any disclaimers that say you need dev edition. Are you able to flash MIUI with basic US Verizon Galaxy Note 4? Can you flash MIUI without root? Again, please forgive me, these feels impossible as I type, but I'm desperate for anything on this failed phone.
Thank you.

Why call this rom the PlayStore Rom? Because this rom features absolutely nothing, thats the beauty of it! If you want something your going to have to get it from the PlayStore. You can customize it any way you want. The rom boots and you can make a phone call and get on the playstore thats about it. So have fun! ​

You must decide if you want to use Google IncallUI or Samsung InCallUI. Samsung InCallUI will allow too still receive and switch to video calls and the google IncallUI will only support HD calling. To switch to google IncallUI goto settings/applications click on default applications choose calling app and click on the blue phone app. To switch back to samsung IncallUI is a little more complicated. You will need an app like root explorer and goto data/system/users/0 and then findthe setting_secure.xml and delete and then restart phone. This will restore samsung IncallUI as default
You will also want to turn edge features off since everthing is deleted
Also you need to goto SuperSU app and goto settings and click on enable su during boot and also click trust system users
Goto this thread and under Recommended Next Steps find the S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip or latest version and flash to fix kernel lage and doze fix.
Goto setting/about phone
Click on build number 5 times to enable developer options
Change animation and duration scales to .05 this will speed up phone
You will also have to change charging/file mode from within developer options
Remember Wiping Dalvik cache will cause phone to take up to 10 min to boot on deodexed roms
If using samsung IncallUI here is a fix for call phone FC and also location service fix

@jkruse Thanks bro appreciate your efforts. One favor, do you know where the Olympic theme is located on your first Rom? (Which folder?) I'm going to extract it from the other version and install it in this one. For some reason its not on the Samsung theme store.

I didnt mean for my reply to come across rude. I just thought since the OP looks like the other one you thought it was the same. This is basically nothing but a bootable rom with like 5 apps installed thats it there are over 180 running apps removed. I kind of thought it would be cool to be able to build your rom how ever you want it without having to worry about what you can delete and what you cannot. I appreciate the support especially on new development. Understand I have many threads and and other devices so i sometimes keep my answers short and direct especially when using the mobile app which I hate using.

Ok, that is what I thought. I just was trying to determine if there was anything else major missing from that other ROM, knowing some apps would have to be pulled or installed, hence your "Playstore" moniker for this ROM. Ok, this is a good clean base ROM for those who like to order "a la carte" down the road when the need for other features are required. I may give it a spin for the fun of it.
Cool! We are good.

I'm using the Google incall with no issues at all. Probably no need to flash if that's what you're using.
So far the ROM is nearly perfect.
Having some MMS issues again. It only works when Wifi is turned off or not connected to a network.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I even flashed your fix it ZIP.
Hey I'm considering installing this ROM because I live the minimalism of it. How's the performance? Anyone mind posting an AnTuTu score?

I actually found one of the battery saver apps to be causing the issue. I think it was amplify through xposed, it caused the mobile data to turn off when connected to wifi. So, i turned it off and haven't had an issue since.
