No freeze, if you don't select all the Samsung apps even thought WiFi connects it does not work and play store won't download until you turn off WiFi.. (This also happens on 7.2SE) must be some app I am not selecting that causes WiFi to act flakey

Thought maybe I screwed up something, when the OTA notice popped up... I am reloading now and all is going well..

Always have Nandroids on my external SDCard and copied to my Laptop. Bit of a boy scout always be prepared...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroidNoober:
Sorry to ask, where is the link?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Oh, ok.

Then you always have the option to flash a Nandroid if you can get into Recovery, before you ODIN back to stock. I thought you were having an issue requiring ODIN.

After another load full wipe, here is the Update in the notifications drop-down, no setup was done other than Wifi login and entering my name..

Murphy has moved in...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Almost looks like you accepted an update?

It's asking you to set it up like it installed :confused:

I'd flash your Nandroid prior to put you back to b4 the issue occurred.

Can you think of anything to cause the issue prior to flashing?

You mentioned this was your first custom ROM flash?

If so, coming from stock of course.

Maybe a Recovery issue. I'm uncertain.

But if Nandroid fails to fix, ODIN.

And maybe change your Recovery just as a trouble shoot.

I've been using TWRP 2.5.0.2 without issue for months.

Not saying you have a recovery issue though.

Oh, and have a shot for Murphy, as you don't want him hanging around to long for a tall one :laugh:

Ah, the Hangouts update and software settings appear to be 2 different things. Then software update concerns me, but nothing a Nandroid or ODIN hopefully won't fix.

Definatley not my first.. First was the OG Droid, HTC PHONE nexus, now this

I will try one more time then back to Nandroid... and start again..

BTW I did not accept the any update, the notification comes up on first boot... Very odd indeed

Friendly Reminder:

Don't used the Aroma Superwipe option in Infamous S4 or Alpha ROMs until Jamison904 or Mr Impossible gives the ok. Should be good to go in next Update.

The above reminder will help save the time it takes to move your Internal SD files to prepare for the Superwipe.

Update:

Thanks to Brian117 for pointing this out >>

There is a SuperWipe zip which you can flash HERE.

After flashing the SuperWipe zip above, you can go into Recovery and precede as usual, using the SuperWipe option if you'd like in Aroma.

Don't Forget to save those Internal SD files, and Move the ROM to your extSdCard ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ali87va:
So the blue theme blacknight has for the alpha rom does not work on this one, system ui crashes left and right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brian117:
For those wanting to use SuperWipe, just download and flash the attached SGH-M919_INFAMOUS.SUPER.WIPE_EXT4.zip in Jamison's 2nd post found here and run it first, then boot back into recovery and start the flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] oldman_58:
After reflecting a bit.. not sure what caused the OTA to hit the first time but subsequent OTA notifications were caused by the Internal SDCARD, once that was wiped all seems to be working well... Just my 2 cents...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Thanks for pointing that out. (ran outta Thanks!)

I saw a few people spending the time to move their files prior to flashing, only to find that Superwipe failed. Now they can dl the zip prior to Recovery. I have a feeling the zip will be overlooked ;)

Ah, so the Internal SD was the known cause for subsequent OTA issues, and is assumed to be the cause of the initial OTA. A remnant or something was on the Internal which was deleted when you wiped. Makes sense to me. That's why sometimes when everything else is tried as a fix except Internal, an Internal wipe, or Full wipe is recommended. It's a little bit of a pain, but that's usually where the cause is if after doing your usual wipes and troubleshooting don't resolve the issues.

That's also why a SuperWipe is recommended before flashing new ROMs, because this will eliminate a lot of trouble shooting if there should be a conflict after a wipe without doing a SuperWipe. When Super WIpe in Aroma is not available, sometimes it's recommended to do a Full Wipe including Internal SD in Recovery to avoid conflicts. Imagine how many less conflict posts there would be if everyone Full Wiped :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
I've been watching this thread pretty closely.

Haven't seen those issues come up.

If cannot find cause, recommend the Wipe protocol, from less to more of course.

SwiftKey and Dolphin have dyslexia and is a real pain. Off topic ;)

SuperWipe, equivalent to Full Wipe including Internal in Recovery may be necessaryif sall else fails. Remnants on Internal, etc. If you go that route, save Internal and move ROM to extsdcard.

The Superwipe zip fix is in op post 2 under changelog.

Flash, Recovery, full wipe, install ROM L, Aroma Superwipe, etc. But try other wipes first if wanttto
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] masturbaker:
Okay. so. first boot, as soon as it's done and the screen after the logo is gone, it says system UI closed. as long as that's normal, I bet I can figure out what might be causing the other closes. I was wondering if something was crashing at first due to the system UI, which might have effected the set up of the entire OS. I let it sit for 5 minutes after I click ok there, and I go through the android set up, skipping most steps outside of entering my name. then I reboot, per the instructions.

I do full system wipe w/ PhilZ, then I wipe the Davlik/whatever that is. Aroma also does a full wipe every time I install a ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:

how's WiFi Tethering w/ LTE connection working for everyone in V5.0? Kernel 4.6? I cannot get it working. I see that it's prepatched ROM, has the hidden pcweb APN already deleted from customer.xml/features.xml/etc for unlimited free tethering. I got Unlimited T-Mobile, in an area with LTE, which uses the fast.t-mobile.com APN. I see the tethering APN is set to epc.tmobile.com by default in INFAMOUS; well, when I connect my PC to the hotspot, it doesn't connect to the internet. the WiFi connection is working, phone/PC recognize WiFi connection, PC has IP from phone, but... no internet. I can ping first 2 hops only. no HTTP, no SSH, nothing, ziltch connection. I don't even think VPN works. I wonder if someone else with LTE could test it on their phone with freshly patched INFAMOUS v5..

I got the idea from reading an iPhone 5 thread on tmobile's forums, that the APN has to be entered the same for each field. so either fast.t-mobile.com or epc.tmobile.com works, but you can't use different APNs for different fields, and fast.t-mobile.com is for LTE. I tried to edit it in, but the setting change didn't take in customer.xml.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Did you ever get tethering to work? I just now remember I had to change the APN for tethering to get it to work.

3Minit (using 3.2.2 paid) has a setting to hide the smart stay icon but it does not seem to work.

I know that it can be removed in one of the Xposed modules but was just trying not to have to have it installed just for that one setting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] masturbaker:
Hey, yep, the APN is the problem. I was following some old guide written originally for the GS3, which is why I was fooling around editing various .xml files and stuff trying to get the APN changed. well, your post, gave me the idea, that I could just use the Settings manager! I didn't even know it was there, cause it was locked on stock ROM. it's fully adjustable with INFAMOUS, here's what you do:

go to system menu->Settings app->Connections tab->More networks tab (editing mobile/GSM/LTE connection settings)->Mobile networks->Probably want to enable Roaming here if it's not enabled, it's free for nationwide plans (you get so much roaming data for free to roam onto AT&T's network)->choose Access Point Names

on Access Point Names, choose T-Mobile Tethering, if you have LTE device/LTE connection, the APN for T-Mobile Tethering should match the APN of the primary connection, usually fast.t-mobile.com instead of epc.tmobile.com. So if you're using fast.t-mobile.com (default APN for LTE), the APN for Tethering should also be fast.t-mobile.com. if you're using 4G/HSPA+, it should be epc.tmobile.com and you might not need to update this.

edit: it is not unlimited tether like I expected. you must still use the trick of masking your PC browsers user-agent, or using a proxy on the phone to hide/mask the traffic. I just chewed through my 500MB free hotspot. ;/
