Yess! I've flashed to MJ5 german stock before starting the process, so I suppouse that the bootloader is MJ5.

A curious thing is that now, when I enter on recovery (PhilZ Touch last version), appears at the top:

"RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING - Set Warranty Bit: recovery"

About Samsung, I'm start to consider other brands. I like LG G2, the only problem is that there's no Omega rom for G2 :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] CheesyPeas:
Long time lurker, infrequent poster.

Just a couple of notes from me:

- AdFree no longer works (other have reported this); i have moved to AdAway instead [fixed]

- Plants Vs Zombies 2 crashes on start-up since installing v13 (came from V12 working fine); The Play store claims compatibility with 4.3 so I'm not sure what is going on here,

- Battery life is dreadful atm (someone else reported this). I can live with it for now, but will change kernel when some more 4.3 ones are available.

- I initially flashed the modem file (when installed v13) using Mobile Odin and this seemed to cause a problem. The phone stuck on the Galaxy S4 (i9505) white text initial screen, and wouldn't boot into recovery (I'm using Philz Touch Recovery). To fix this, I flashed the modem from PC-Odin and then re-flashed Philz Recovery (again, via PC-Odin); this allowed me to get back into recovery and flash v13.

Other than that, a great ROM as always (I have used your Omega ROMs on and off since the S2); thanks for the hard work. :good:

Downloading 13.1 now, but as someone else requested, is it possible to simply provide a CWM zip for the changes between 13 and 13.1?

Many thanks

You flashed mj5 modems on tmo? And it didn't completely brick your phone? Lucky! Regardless, ALL modem functions won't work.

You can't change the modem on any other variant but i9505.

You need to put MDL back, but the version with check removed. And then you still CANT use any 4.3 rom on LTE. You will lose connection when screen off. Your only options is to leave on 3G or switch back to a 4.2.2 rom. Need to wait until tmo updates their modems, which probably won't happen until 4.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] talexop:
Well I can not understant what is going on!! It should work... I wonder is anyone else here who has the new bootloader MJ5 and has the same problem?

For example if I flash MJ5 for both modems because I am with stock bootloader I also have problem with wifi. I expected that you should not have because of the new BL.!

Have you tried with Ausidm kermel also? I mean keep the modems MJ5 and flash Ausdim v11 from CWM.

I think the reason that does not work with MJ5 modems MJ5 BL and stock(modified) kernel is that Omega has changed modules for the wifi driver... The only solution will be to use custom kernel for the wifi to work...

You should try MJ5 for both modems and ausdim v11 kernel... I wish you luck!

Thanks for your response [MENTION=4073507]dannyben[/MENTION] but I never stated I flashed mj5 modem onto my S4 meaning I still have original modem that came with phone. I am only inquiring at the moment before attempting anything. Always measure twice and cut once :thumbup:

Can you clarify for me if both int'l I9505 and US T-MO both are gsm based how I would brick my phone by flashing mj5 modem ?

Installing 13.1 from 6.0.4.4. Full wipe. I have installed 2 times, did it the second time because I had everything ticked in aroma. Both times it booted up fine, but after selecting language, American English it hangs and reboots. After that its fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Beefheart:
Don't understand the complaints about battery life, I have been using v13 for a few days now and it seems to be no better or worse than the last two stock roms I have spent a decent time using, namely Omega V10 and Wanam 1.5. Just make sure you start from a fresh wipe, a dirty flash over a 4.2.2 rom is bound to cause issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] T LEONARDIS:
[MENTION=4073507]dannyben[/MENTION] Actually they are not completely different phones...in fact they are the same phone, just different firmware.

Thanks anyhow, I was under the impression so long as in our case both phones are gsm based from same mfr I would be ok, guess I was wrong.

Why is there sound only when taking pictures with night mode activated? Is there a way to disable it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] JmJ17:
It appears that now works. This is what I've done:

1. Install MJ5 stock german

2. Root & Recovery

3. Install modem MJ5, Fix and kernel as you told

4. Install Omega v13.1 (after that, the wifi doesn't work)

5. Install again modem MJ5 and Fix (not kernel)

Now it appears to work fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] snwman:
Just on the note of some people having bad battery life I experienced the same after a dirty flash of v13 on top of v12. Then I did a clean install and was noticeably better. Also as stated before on a reply to one of my problems dont use mobile odin anymore causes issues. As said only way out of it is to flash whatever recovery you where using and either restore backup or flash new rom..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wilfred_hup1:
Below mentioned option to flash a modem works.

However, you could also install the complete stock ROM XXUEMJ5 via PC-Odin (which will install the modem and everything else), and then flash Omega 13.1.

Whatever suits you best.

Any chance of getting a faster/more popular download mirror?

depositfiles.com is 'sooooo last millenium', and extraordinarily slow for free users, eta 6 hours...

Torrent has too few seeders

androidfilehost.com would take me around 10 mins to download this rom

mediafire.com would be around the same

mega.co.nz would take about 45 minutes max

I have been lucky, did a dirty flash from 13 to 13.1 (everything worked on 13 by the way) and everything still seems fine, I did notice a lag on scrolling through facebook but when I closed it and opened it again it was much better, I can live with that, sound, WiFi, GPS and Blutooth all seem to be working, I lost root after initially full wipe installation of 13, not sure how but flashing CF Auto Root this resolved that, I then flashed philz_touch_5.18.5 and all was good, the only thing I would like is the CRT off effect, someone said it was an option in Wanam Xposed but I cannot find it, can anyone point me in the right direction?

So, I install Omega v13.1 but there are no sound and phone become very unstable when trying to paly audio or video.

This is what I done: (I came from Omega v12)

1 Flash GSM_Modem_XXUEMJ5_and_LTE_Modem_XXUBMH1.tar with Odin

2 When restart to check the baseband there was no sound

3 Install Omega v13.1 with CWM

4 After first start there was no sound again and wifi connection was unstable

5 Flash MJ5 and wifi fix separately - still no sound, wifi work fine

6 Flash I9505_ZHUDMI1_MODEM.tar and install Omega v12 - still no sound.

All I want now is to have sound, no matter which version of Android will use.

Can somebody helm me!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cdyna:
I had the no sound issue, too. Tried every method of flashig the different modems but to no avail.

What I did to fix it was flashing Mega pre-rooted Stock Rom through Odin from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2250824

I then re-installed CWM and installed Omega 13.1 without installing any of the modems and everything seems to be working now. I don't use LTE though, so don't know if that works.

Just be aware of the KNOX problems. Mine was showing warranty void already anyway, so I didn't care. Figured it's better to lose warranty than sound...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] andreasy:
I'm afraid that I'll have to repeat the whole full wipe and re-configure process, the only thing I hate.

I installed 13.1 on top of 13 and the issue with SystemUI (Crashing when long-pressing home) still persists. Also still no long-menu press to kill apps.

New issue is that AdAway which worked fine on 13 stopped working on 13.1. Anyone else noticed that? I was with AdFree until v.12 and since we went to 4.3 I switched yesterday to AdAway which was working fine. Right after installing 13.1 it stopped working which is not reasonable again since 13 and 13.1 are actually the same.

I tried also to wipe System UI data but nothing changed. Well, in the meantime if anyone has any idea about the above long-press issue I would apreciate it.

Hi all,

Saw a post earlier but no answer on this.

These apps are compatible with Android 4.3.

How can I solve this problem?

No they are slight variants. And different frequencies why we must keep USA radios. But what do I know. Flash away mj5 modems & let us know....Just make sure you have a computer nearby -- since your phone will be just a doorstop ;)

I think that most people here see and here so much about solving a problem in different ways. That's where the problems getting bigger and bigger. Indie put everything in the tutorial, but most people are doing something without reading and the problems started and get bigger.

Was pleasantly surprised with 13.1 (on US TMo). Dirty flashed ROM and (not also KT kennel yet).

Unlike 13.0, Stock internet does not FC, and WiFi speeds are much better. Since i dirty flashed, it carried over KTweaker. OC and UV are still thare, as well as Knootnzconservative kernel - how is that possible? I checked and have ausdim kernel installed.

No comlaints with the above - it seems to be running much better overall.

Evening all, really looking for advice here. Lets start of with some that will probably anger the majority of you, I am a Newbie. I have spent hours and hours reading this forum.

I have a Samsung S4 GT-I9505 on Vodaphone.

A few days ago after days of ready I decided to root the phone and install PhilZ Recovery. That all went well :D

I then decided to install the Omega V13 Rom and this is where the issues start.

For those over in the Development thread that I can not access yet will off seen many people saying all is good and others saying all is bad. Well I have issues, I have eventually got the Wifi working but I have no sound at all. Every time I try to watch a video it errors out and restarts.

When I try to make a call it goes to the dialer, I enter the number and press call and the screen goes black however the outgoing call connects. I cant end the call as the screen is black, however if I keep pressing the home button I eventually get to the main screen.

The same happens on incoming calls, the screen just goes black and the phone vibrates due to not producing any sound.

This is what I currently have

Model Number

GT-I9505

Android Version

4.3

Baseband Version

I9505XXUEMJ5

Kernel Version

3.4.67-Google-Edition-v-10

ausdim@dk #1

Build Number

Omega v13.1 - XXUEMJ5

SELinux Status

Permissive

Secure Boot Status

Type : Samsung

I have also tries to install a stock rom from sammy and that went OK, however still the same issues with sound and calls and I could not connect to wifi.

I am really looking for someone with a heart who can help me out explain step by step what to do to either resolve the issues I have with the ROM or get me back to the stock rom.

Really starting to pull my hair out here.
