So I was running GB27 and i guess i took your advice, and i went into recovery, delete data, flashed jbwipex2 and then flashed my room and got a bootloop... well not really bootloop it was kind of like a stuck at splash screen then it turned off and repeated..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Did you check the md5 to make sure it was a good download? Sounds like a bad flash. Download rom again and try flashing again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
What recovery did you clean flash from?

With TBSGS4 or most if not all ROMs flash EL26+CWM or EL29 Direct boot kernel and do your full wipe and flash from one of those recoveries.

That's what I have up in the OP under install directions. Trust me I bootlooped a few times flashing from agat's recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
As have I lol...can't go wrong with the trusty gb safe kernels! :thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IamFlynn:
I flashed with Agats recovery and the rom had a good md5..

I ended up flashing back to EL29 to get rid of bootloop and flashing el26 kernel. Now im running TBSGS4 YAYA

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
With what? About flashing from EL26 or EL29. That's for clean flashing. I'm going to be making update zips for each new version as well as a full ROM so no more dirty ROM flashes.

Under my install directions it has clean flash from EL26 (preferably) or EL29 DB kernel. Also in post #4 has that in the "How to flash a custom ROM." Section.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tangjun188988:
my friend , I am suffering the similarity as you were . Could you give me some advice? here is my situation:

I want to taste the White Out Rom V.4 or the Re-Calked in Jellybean ROM V1.1.

At first ,I was in Jellyverse 3.0 GB27 , so I flash EL26 kernel , flash JB.Format_All_X2 ,and flash rom ,but it repeated the first screen ,restart and restart.

Then I flash it back to EL29,repeat the process just said, still my S2 repeated again and again at the first screen.

all the best !!gratitude and gratitude!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Did you wrote wipe everything exactly according to the install instructions? Sounds like not. Also, re-download the ROM, sounds like you may have a bad dl as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tangjun188988:
good friend ,I flash a JB.Format_All_X2 after flshing a EL 26 kernel , so the area of data ,system ,cache, preload are all formatted twice. So I think I've done as the introduction. Do you mean there is something else I haven't wipe????????

On the other hand , the situation I said occurs frequently. Does a bad download occurs frequently ??

need your further advice. Gratitude!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Easiest way to see if you have a good download almost every time is download the ROM to your PC check the MD5 then transfer to your phone

And check the MD5 again. You would be surprise how many times I've gotten a bad d/l when downloading to my phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
+1. Plus for me it dl so much faster to pc on Wi-Fi vs phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tangjun188988:
Thanks quite quite a lot...... I red/l and check MD5. Then I use a clean flash from ICS to GB27 , a great success, Ha . I also tried a dirty flash from GB27 to GB27 , no failure occurs. I enjoy it .:D:D:D:D:D

Besides , thanks for your contribution to all of us , your roms are beautiful.:D:D:D:D:D:D

I download the rom again , it makes a difference. Thanks a lot ... I have been ignoring the exist of a bad d/l...I am going to check MD5 everytime.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D.....

And this time I chang from GB27 to GB27 just bying a dirty flash , and it unexpectedly succeeded.:D:D:D:D

Anybody know how to disable the low battery restrictions? I like to get every last drop out of my battery before swapping it out. Currently rooted.

You do know that letting Li-Ion batteries fall below about 15-20% on a regular basis will significantly reduce their lifespan and ability to hold a full charge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] itiskonrad:
I'm desperately trying to find the code to stop these. The auto screen dimming and low battery warnings drive me crazy (the screen dimming in particular. It makes it SO dim it effectively makes the phone in the last five percent completely useless.) If I find a way to disable it in the system, I'll let you know. Till then, I use an app called adjbrightness to force the screen back up to useable brightness when it dims at low battery. (And before any of you who misunderstand what we're talking about responds, the screen dimming that occurs at the last five percent is not the "power saving" feature turning on. We've obviously completely disabled that in the settings. It dims anyway.)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rogier666:
20%, 5%, 1%, it really doesn't matter.

Your phone screams "0%" and shuts itself down when the battery hits about 3V. The battery protection circuit only kicks in at 2.5V. When your phone switches itself off you can safely leave the battery "empty" for at least a year or two before it self-discharges beyond repair.

All those "keep your battery above x %" superstitions are in the same boat as the long debunked "deleting batterystats.bin calibrates your battery" myth.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theOPEC:
I was always suspect of this, but now I have confirmation. Last night I was streaming some live video to my phone in high quality (twitch app, watching starcraft 2). I also have a little bluetooth speaker that I was using. So it turns out, that the video would lag when the bluetooth speaker was connected, but not when the sound was just coming out of the phone speakers (bluetooth antennae still kept on). I tried this back and fourth 4 times, to make sure that it wasn't just a coincidence, and it wasn't.

So now this makes me think, when I'm using a Mogo Pro controller through bluetooth, does this make the multiplayer gaming lag? I have to wonder, because I play Modern Combat 4 multiplayer, and get lag spikes often. I always assumed it was just the ****ty servers, since they drop matches all the time.

NOTE: I have done a search, and only found a couple threads of people complaining about the same thing, but not getting any constructive help. I want to know if this is a defect, a design flaw of the One X, or a design flaw of bluetooth/wifi.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Makes sense. Bluetooth uses 2.4ghz frequency hopping spread spectrum, WiFi uses 2.4ghz wideband transmission... Every so often the Bluetooth signal will overlap with the wirless channel causing interference. If you wanted you could buy a 5ghz wireless router to eliminate the problem.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theOPEC:
Oh, interesting. That makes sense. I actually have a dual band N router, is there a way for me to force my HOX to connect with 5ghz only?

EDIT: I am mistaken. I don't have a dual band router. I was looking forward to at least pinning down the problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tinwhisker:
In case you do get a new router, yes you can force 5gHz only. It's under the Wi-Fi advanced menu.
[HTC One S] merovingian_a51:
Alright, noob here. Since I cannot post in the PACMAN development thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2164406) I will put this here.

- Problems installing PACMAN ROM

- After receiving "Errors Flashing", failures, downgraded recovery to TWRP 2.3.3.0

- 2.3.3.0 displayed "Error 7"

- Searching on error 7 led me down the path of the assert checks

- updater-script assert command in PACMAN ROM package is checking for model "ville".

- My HTC One S Special edition returns "villeplus" from "adb shell getprop ro.product.device"

My understanding is that the North American S4 and the Special Edition share identical hardware, only differing in drive size (16 vs. 64GB), so I am assuming any ROM designed for the ville will work on my phone.

Assuming it will I should be able to edit the "updater-script" file, but when I extract it windows is telling me that 23 files are duplicates. I'm not sure if this is because its windows vs. Linux that I'm extracting it on?? In any case, I don't seem to be able to modify the file without adversely affecting the integrity of the archive. Also would assume replacing the file will affect the MD5 hash which I believe TWRP checks when loading the ROM?

So first off, can someone confirm that this ROM will be compatible with my phone and 2, any suggestions on modifying the updater-script file within the archive?
[HTC One S] merovingian_a51:
Update

I was able to modify the updater-script file tonight using file X-Plore and text edit, so now the script is looking for "villeplus" rather than ville. My phone is S-OFF which I read means that it does not do signature checks... however, I'm not sure if that also means it bypasses MD5 checksums - I suspect not since I'm pretty sure I saw it verifying MD5 previously. So, since I tampered with the ZIP it still may not work.

My real question now that remains is even if it will work, do I want to flash a ROM built for the ville to my villeplus. The more I read about custom ROMs the more it appears that they are extremely specific to models.

I am still extremely curious to try it... rumor has it that curiosity didn't work out so well for the cat though. :-/
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Unfortunately, i have to fully disappoint you.

The villeplus is having the exact same hardware as the ville. Theoretically ideal. Unfortunately, HTC decided to make it a "/data/media" device unlike its brother, the ville.

Explained: the Ville has a partition for the SDCard and its mounted with its own mountpoint, /sdcard.

The Villeplus has a partition for the SDCard too, but its mounted inside the /Data partition as /data/media. This means a lot of problems from every imaginable aspect.

I spend a week together with Torxx from ViperOneS to get Viper to run on it and we found out that a.) the Kernel needs to be adjusted and b.) some libs and etc. which is real dev work and which no dev in the OneS section has time for.

Later i spent another two weeks with Philz and mdmower trying to at least get recovery to mount the sh.it thing as USB, which turned out to be impossible at this time as it is only possible through the MTP protocoll, which no recovery supports as of yet.

Since i am a n00b myself i did not entirely understand the nature of the problem, but it seems to be very complex.

At some point i suggested to actually rewrite the partitions on the phones so they would work the same way as on the ville. I even tried myself and flashed a Ville RUU to my Villeplus (it works, doesnt break anything) but with the same effect as custom roms: my SD was then in Data/media and the internal apps memory and RAM were shifted to somewhere else with not enough space so the phone kept running out of space and crashed often. Also all system components trying to access stuff on the SD failed to find their stuff and crashed.

Since we don't actually have means to change the chip controller programming so it offers the partitions differently to the ROM we cannot go that way either (Zarboz tried to explain it to me but i failed understanding it, somehow the device pathes are put into the actual chip and not part of any RUU, so to change them one would need to have some special software tool like we could have done on the HD2 back then).

The only viable way would be to adjust ROM modules and Kernel to this structure, which won't happen as no dev has this device and there are like maybe 5 active users here.

You are out of luck my friend. Sorry. I too was full of hope and gave it up when all devs i contacted signalled that there is no benefit for them and they wouldn't waste their time basically.
[HTC One S] merovingian_a51:
Wow, Sneakyghost, I can't thank you enough for your prompt (I just PM'd him last night folks) and very thorough response.

I'm wondering why HTC did this - thinking maybe to prevent/protect users from tampering with the device - perhaps other ROMs wouldn't run on it in a stable fashion.. or they just don't want people messing with custom ROMs. Perhaps this was a new architecture for them (wondering if the One and One X followed this same design?).

In any case, looks like I'll be sticking to looking at launchers and custom widgets. I'm actually quite happy with 4.1.1 and Sense (maybe because I'm new to Android, not sure), I mainly wanted to try experiment with custom ROMs, and learn about how all this stuff works. At least till the M4 comes out anyways.. ;)

Thanks again so much for your response, it is much appreciated and well explained.
[HTC One S] mdmower:
Oh the irony, the (unreleased) 4.2 update for ville actually reformats partitions for data media. I don't think the update will ever be officially available to US users, but it is funny nonetheless.
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
This, my friend, is indeed ironic, if not even sad.

Considering what it means, I come to understand that porting ROM's from Ville to Villeplus would have gotten much easier then. Only that it is too late.

Torxx and I gave up due to the amount of work attached to the previous system structures, but if the Ville turns into a datamedia device with that update, many ROM devs and chefs would have to deal with it plus HTC would have done the most difficult part already anyway...

What a shame that this comes so late now and doesn't even get released probably...
