Coming up next in our Galaxy S5 transformation is the FM Radio App. For now the name of the person who has ported this app is unknown (if it ever needed porting) or it could actually be xda member <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3984808">adityapal</a> who has published the apk file in the forums.<br />
<br />
The app seems to be working just fine (is able to scan for radio stations and can play them without any issues) and is even able to record radio. The generated file comes with a .m4a extension that is not visible in the music player but you can find lots of online file converters that can turn it into mp3.<br />

Coming next to our Galaxy S5 transformation is the Internet Browser application. which was recently ported by xda member <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5403589" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span class="searchBubble" id="searchBubble"></span>Albe95</a>. The application seems to work just fine on the Galaxy S4 mini running the new KitKat firmware and may even work on other Samsung devices with this new firmware as well. Most likely the app will not work on Jelly Bean firmwares though due to some framework changes made by Samsung.<br />

After personally testing the app I have come to the conclusion that it's awesome and is working just fine on the Galaxy S4 mini. You do not only get a similar design as this is not a theme, but you actually get the features that it could offer since we are installing the whole app.<br />

Volume Boosting Mod for Galaxy S4 mini

While most of you may be satisfied with the Galaxy S4 mini's speaker volume, some may be disappointed and would like to boost it up a bit. In certain situations such as in parties with loud music and noise, you may not be able to hear your phone's ringtone if you have disabled vibration or if you have a song whose volume is below normal, you may want to listen to it louder on your music player.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyFFWw_ZLky9KRFyjoTBppfOLbd4vytyPIDNH5WZlRI2o6kuGL1SI6IuD3xGvYeGmJtZMHW_TVL4k3tfF8D68G5mW4iZeIJxMQ08KCQkwuhV8Qtx7rx_5si4phz4kP3YjYTdsUvkiDU-0p/s1600/boost-s4-mini-volume.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="boost s4 mini volume" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyFFWw_ZLky9KRFyjoTBppfOLbd4vytyPIDNH5WZlRI2o6kuGL1SI6IuD3xGvYeGmJtZMHW_TVL4k3tfF8D68G5mW4iZeIJxMQ08KCQkwuhV8Qtx7rx_5si4phz4kP3YjYTdsUvkiDU-0p/s1600/boost-s4-mini-volume.png" title="" width="360" /></a></div>
For these kind of frustrating situations comes this volume sound boosting mod from the developer of the popular WizzedTheme, <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4822300">rrgrrg</a>. Now of course you can also use a sound mod such as <a href="http://www.s4miniarchive.com/2014/05/viper4android-for-galaxy-s4-mini.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Viper4Android </a>but that mod only covers the music player and nothing else while this mod actually helps you increase the overall sound volume for your ringtones, notifications and system sounds.<br />
<br />
This mod will boost your volume values up to 50% and headphones values up to 80%. According to <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4822300">rrgrrg</a>, this mod seems to be working on both 4.2.2 and 4.4.2 firmwares for the Galaxy S4 mini and the only requirement left is to have a custom recovery installed.<br />
<br />

<br />
<h2>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Disclaimer:</span></h2>
Use this mod with caution! While this is proven to not cause any damage to the phone's speakers, be careful of how much you increase your phone's volume as anything is possible to happen. S4MiniArchive and the developer will not be responsible for any damages caused. Flash and use this at your own risk!<br />

Since the last published <a href="http://www.s4miniarchive.com/2014/03/s5note-pro-icon-pack-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-mini.html" target="_blank">S5 icon pack</a> had some small issues such as a few oversized icons in certain areas, many of you were eagerly waiting for an update with such issues being resolved. Unfortunately, I am not that experienced in theming and the whole graphics scene, so I am presenting you the WizzedTheme made by xda member <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4822300">rrgrrg</a> who has done a way better job.<br />
<br />
Just like the old S5 icon pack that was published here a few months ago, WizzedTheme is also just a zip file that replaces your system apps' PNG files with the S5 ones giving you the S5 look. Since this package does not replace any actual apk files or anything else important, it is considered safe for flashing.<br />
<br />
Please note that this only works in 4.2.2 Jelly Bean based firmwares. Due to the fact that the new KitKat firmware uses files with a .SPI extension, flashing this package will not replace a single icon.<br />
<br />

<br />
<h2>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">What this theme includes:</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>S5 Weather Widget</li>
<li>S5 Launcher</li>
<li>S5 Voice recorder</li>
<li>S5 My Files Subicons</li>
<li>S5 Lockscreen Effect</li>
<li>S5 Apps Icons</li>
<li>S5 Full Framework</li>

<li>S5 Camera ported</li>
<li>S5 Calculator</li>
<li>S5 Wallpaper Chooser wallpapers</li>
<li>S5 Statusbar and UI</li>
</ul>
This theme is available to use for both single-SIM and dual-SIM phones. <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4822300">rrgrrg</a> has also included the themed weather widget as well as a single icon pack for those of you who do not with to get the whole S5 UI but just the new app icons.<br />

(KitKat) How to Root and Install CWM Recovery on Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini 3G (GT-I9190)

Ever since the release of Android 4.4.2 KitKat for the GT-I9190 there have been many questions being posted on the website, YouTube channel as well as the Facebook and Google+ pages about rooting and installing a custom recovery. The LTE and Duos already have foolproof rooting methods and now it's time we get one for the 3G.<br />
<br />
If you have already tried rooting your Galaxy S4 mini 3G using the old method which requires you to replace your existing kernel with an insecure one first, you probably ended up being in a bad situation such as a bootloop. This is because you are trying to put a kernel based off Jelly Bean onto KitKat.<br />
<br />
Also please keep in mind that the downloads included in this post are strictly meant for the GT-I9190 model only. You can check the Rooting category for guides on how to root the GT-I9192 and GT-I9195 (just make sure that the post begins with "(KitKat)" otherwise it is meant for Jelly Bean and you should not try it!).<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Pre-requisites:</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>Working USB Cable</li>
<li>CF-Auto-Root package + Odin  - <a href="http://download.chainfire.eu/423/CF-Root1/CF-Auto-Root-serrano3g-serrano3gub-gti9190.zip?retrieve_file=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Click here to download.</a></li>

</li>
</ul>
<h2>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Rooting GT-I9192 running KitKat:</span></h2>
<ol>
<li>Download the CF-Auto-Root + Odin package to your computer.</li>
<li>Download the recovery package as well. </li>
<li>Extract the CF-Auto-Root as well as the recovery zip files.</li>
<li>Inside the CF-Auto-Root folder you should see Odin along with required files as well as a .tar.md5 file.</li>
<li>Power off your phone and then begin holding the Volume down + Home + Power buttons together. Once you enter Download mode, press the Volume up button to have it say "Downloading..."</li>
<li>Now connect it to your computer and start the Odin program</li>
<li>In the Odin program, click on the PDA button and choose the .tar.md5 file that you got with the package.</li>
<li>Click on the Start button and wait for the procedure to finish. After it is done, your phone should automatically reboot.</li>
<li>Now repeat steps 5-6 and this time in the PDA field choose the recovery .tar.md5 file and click on Start.</li>
<li>Your phone will once again reboot and you should have root access as well as a custom recovery installed.</li>
</ol>
That's pretty much it. Your GT-I9190 should now be rooted and you should have the custom CWM Recovery installed and working as well. <br />

Since the <a href="http://www.s4miniarchive.com/2014/03/s5-quick-settings-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-mini.html" target="_blank">old S5 notification screen/quick toggles</a> theme is not working on the new Samsung KitKat firmware anymore, it's about time we found another method to achieve this kind of look. Many people have asked in the comments why they don't see any changes in their KitKat firmware after flashing the above package and well, the answer is that in the old Jelly Bean firmware the graphics were fetched from .PNG files whilst KitKat fetches them from files with a .SPI extension - files that cannot be opened and edited with programs such as Paint or Photoshop.<br />
<br />

In this new method we will be using the Xposed framework and two modules without replacing any system files. This means that whenever you get tired of this look you can revert back to your old notification screen within a few seconds without the need to restore nandroid backups or flashing a whole stock firmware package all over again. Huge thanks to our fellow visitor <span class="post-byline"><span class="author publisher-anchor-color"><a data-action="profile" data-role="username" data-user="110059067" href="http://www.s4miniarchive.com/2014/07/samsung-rolling-out-kitkat-to-galaxy-s4mini-3g-i9190.html#">Ahmad Akhtar</a> who has shared information about the module.</span></span><br />
<span class="post-byline"><span class="author publisher-anchor-color"><br /></span></span>
<span class="post-byline"><span class="author publisher-anchor-color">This module mix has just one small problem, and that is the automatic brightness checkbox that turns into white once the two modules are enabled. Strangely enough, when disabling the S5 SystemUI module the white checkbox reverts back to its old look. Whether this is a conflic between two modules modding the notification screen or just an issue with the S5 SystemUI, nobody knows for now. Rest assured, an update will be posted once this issue gets solved.</span></span><br />

With the recent introduction of Android 4.4 KitKat to our S4 mini, we got the chance to try out some of the Galaxy S5's stock applications such as the launcher, weather widget, calculator, music player and a few others.<br />

If you really like the Galaxy S5 apps' UI but cannot afford to buy the actual device, you can make your Galaxy S4 mini partially look like one. This post is the second part of the "S5 transformation" series that you are about to see published in the upcoming days.

Samsung has done it once again with their lovely new TouchWiz UI look and boot animation included in their new flagship phone, the Galaxy S5. While there is still no complete S5 theme available for our Galaxy S4 mini, you can still somewhat transform it to look like one from a first look by setting the homescreen and lockscreen wallpapers, push the ported Galaxy S5 launcher into your system and some other things.<br />
<br />
But before we get onto those things, let us first take a look at the S5 boot animation. This boot animation was ported by xda member <a href="http://fahadali2315/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fahadali2315</a> who originally posted this at the Note 3 boards but works perfectly on our Galaxy S4 mini.<br />
<br />
Another good thing I would like to mention is that you do not need to flash the custom boot animation enabler and all that stuff as this package contains the raw .qmg files including the sound files, no bootanimation.zip split into png frames.<br />
<br />
