thanks!

+1. I've been doing this mod since it first came out. It looks more confusing than it really is. Just follow the instructions carefully. It would be nice to not have to do it after ROM updates.

In addition to adding the wifi hotspot, I also delete the ones I never use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] LionFreak:
Thanks Clark!

Love the ROM. No real problems. I was searching previous posts because the issue I did have is that during install I chose franzroy theme & only a couple addons.Unfortunately, when I booted I didn't get the theme, it's still TW and worst of all I got ALL the bloat including sprint crap. I didn't select any sprint bloat. Samsung WatchON takes up over 33MB alone. I looked and I can't uninstall.

Other than that, it's working great.

I just use notification toggle for flash light amd hot spot

It did let me uninstall the sprint apps, maybe I'm an idiot & it needs some of the samy apps. Attempting to move apps to SD card is causing reboots. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] citron01:
I have tried about everything to deal with the heat issue on the ROM. No matter what I do I always have media server eating up all my battery and making the phone run super hot.

I have tried multiple kernels. tried going back to completely stock then re-rooting and reinstalling with different kernels. I made sure I didnt do the framework like someone suggested but nothing seems to work.

anyone else have any ideas? I really want to come back to freeGS4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SixSixAtl:
I'm guessing you mean media scanner, and if that is indeed the case, you probably have a corrupt media file - a pic, video, audio, etc. - on your SD card. I had this problem on my GS2, and I ended up solving the problem by backing up all the files on my SD card I wanted to save (mainly pics) to my laptop and reformatting the SD card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] citron01:
I thought this may have been the case and I tested without the memory card and I still had issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SixSixAtl:
I'm referring to the built in (internal) SD card not the removable (external) SD card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] citron01:
Also did a wipe on the internal store. It was one of the first things I tried because other people said it would work. :crying:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SixSixAtl:
Did you just wipe only or did you actually format internal storage?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] LionFreak:
I guess it's time to go back. Having random reboots & other odd things. Losing data like wifi pass...weird.

Now I can't even get into twrp... stays stuck on twrp splash. I've never seen this before. ugh.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Forgetting wifi pass is because of faux kernel and the random reboots could be because of the kernel. Seriously people need to read. If your using twrp version greater than 2.5.0.2 yes you would see some problems because their buggy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
The last 2 versions of TWRP gave me troubles. The newest is flawless for me. Better than 2.5.0.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Well havent tried the newest one. I guess ill check it out sometime then.

Has anyone checked clark's signature? It says he is running v4 :D!!!!!!!! :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] buzzwyzr:
Finally got it to boot.

I had to select to install Xposed framework. Without it the ROM wouldn't boot.

Anyone get it to boot without Xposed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] LionFreak:
I was at at 2.502. I didn't change until twrp wouldn't even load. I had to update to 2.603 or w/e... because twrp wouldn't even load....never seen anything like it... my battery started getting hot..& drained. I'm not a newb at this. I've been flashing custom ROMs since my sam moment.. It's odd that it didn't seem to be present at first & started a few hrs later... I did a full wipe & clean install. I used this ROM before @ 2.0 then switched to intrinsic. I would have loved to come back. I like clark's work, but having these issues start after a few hrs I had to revert. Just never seen this type of things..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
Do you know if this may has something to do with the reboot into download fake Odin flash of TWRP vs shut down then boot into download mode flash of TWRP issue?

I couldn't get 2.6.0.0 to work on my (white) GS4. 2.6 didn't work on my wife's first (black) GS4 either, 2.5.0.2 did. Her second one took it first try. As did my best friends' (Black) on I flash. His mother's was a PITA and wouldn't take any. I had to flash stock let it boot and sit a bit then start over rooting and custom recovery from scratch. If I have any issues I will try the newest TWRP but I don't expect anything untoward to happen.

MD5 check green so I am flashing right now.

Thanks clark44!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tegezee:
Where are the screenshots for this rom? Isn't that a post prerequisite?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Wow really ? I have never seen anyone make this statement/question before. Lol and if you looked you would have noticed there is a video review that clearly shows what the ROM looks like.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tegezee:
I'm not trolling or anything it was a question, people ask dumbass questions all the time on xda. I'm sure there has been at least a hundred in this thread, that's the real wow.

I'm using the xda app I didn't see the link in post #5.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bboy_201:
now it wants me to sign in SkyDrive :()
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fgr:
Go HERE instead. Same instructions are here on the forums.

Oops, that is actually a long way around to the same place...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] roc342:
Confused

I'm running FreeGS4 v3 and befored installing i updated the modem/firmware to MF9. I want to install the hotspot mod. But I don know which to use because my baseband is showing as MDL. After reading the OP I see that this rom is based off MF9 so why is it showing MDL? Which MOD to USE?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
The MOD is built in no need to flash anything extra. :) Radio/Baseband are not ROM related whatsoever
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bboy_201:
thank any way but i was on the page at home and i was able to download the file. But it says No database founs and mt screen doesn't have the same options it says to follow :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
Flashed last night kinda late.

Flash went through just fine.

It still runs a little warm, but I am a very heavy user, screen time wise and wireless radio use wise so that may just be a result of my usage patterns.

Couple things happened though that are very strange.

After the first boot I had to update PRL, Profile, and dial ##72786# to get data working and to stop roaming... I don't know what is up with that.

I installed the xposed installer, at which point the phone crashed. Instantly.

When it rebooted the phone installed all the Sprint bloat all on it's own for some reason - I had declined them during the install process... also xposed is completely removed from the app drawer (was it somewhere else??).

Then I was going to download x-plore file manager from the Play Store so I could go and remove the apps in /system but the Play Store would not download any apps. Stuck on downloading, forever. I cleared the cache and defaults for Play Store and Play Services, but that didn't seem to fix it so I went to bed.

Woke up today to troubleshoot some more wrt Play Store but it's working.

I can't find xposed or any of the modules. I'm probably looking in the wrong place, but I checked through the Settings menu, ROM Control, and the app drawer I suspect it was removed somehow. Does it being removed (potentially) have something to do with the check box to have Google/Play Store verify apps?

Everything else is working. I'm on my PC via my router connected to my phone's HotSpot so everything seems fine...

I haven't had any more random reboots. Just the one when I tried to install the xposed framework.

edit - one other thing. The mobile data doesn't seem to disconnect but after about an hour or so data no longer works.

It was downloading play store apps just fine on 4g, then all of a sudden it is hanging, when I look at the 4g symbol the arrows underneath are gray, when i use my phone to try to load a web page or a play store app the up arrow turns green for a second then back to gray - the down arrow doesn't turn orange as it usually does when it is downloading.

I didn't change anything from earlier today, was just in the process of downloading my games from Play. This happened last night too but I didn't try any web sites.

I have to toggle airplane mode on, wait, then off to get it working again.

Should I just flash to stock mf9 and start over from scratch?

edit 2 - TWRP asked me for a password. Never having set a password, this is kind of alarming to me. Is it because my phone has lowish battery or am I screwed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] roc342:
I got it, Thanks for the fast response.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Troyman:
Someone have a problem with the installation go here,

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2459294

Solved my problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
That's pretty much what I did. Thanks for link to the guide.

Mine was an admittedly minor issue - where the hell did xposed go?? But it was annoying to me.

I flashed stock mf9 - I let it boot, waited 10 minutes before I touched it. This time, as opposed to every single other time I have flashed a ROM on my GS4 it pulled a signal, did not roam, and I got 4g and 3g just fine without having to dial ##72786# or update PRL, Profile, or activate through the settings menu. I restarted it a couple times to make sure it was working fine.

I rerooted with cf-auto root.

I used odin to install TWRP 2.6.3.0 ((I was on 2.5.0.2, which worked better than 2.6.0 for my phone. One thing I noticed, with TWRP 2.5 and 2.6.0 when I'd go to wipe it would take a random amount of time, sometimes instantly "finishing" the wipe, sometimes taking upwards of 30 seconds to "finish" wiping. With TWRP 2.6.3.0 it always takes a while, which makes me feel it works better, more consistent))

Flashed FreeGS4 - I got the "detection information" popup, going to kill that here in a bit but it seems to be working great so far. It's downloading apps from the Play Store right now automatically.

I did not have a roaming popup after flashing the ROM (I always did on v2.0). Nor did I have to activate to get data working again (same).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
yeah, sorry to break the bad news but i tried multiple different kernels and it still gets very hot. i woke up late to class because the phone wouldnt power back on from the heat. sorry clark. im just going back to nowizasop
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CHUUZE:
which framework version do I download from the download center that is going to be compatible with Sprint's S4? There's only options for the i9500 and i9505...?

Edit: nvm I found the thread with the answer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
I downloaded the i9505 version 1.7 and bought the donate version of the market, however it is not working for me and I'm getting frustrated. My system ui crashes at boot and the app force closes, I have no status bar. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dreDrennon1:
Use the 1.6 free version it works perfectly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Shadow_God:
You have to flash the zip then download the app from the playstore.....if you have the app before you flash the zip, then the systemUI will FC and wont be there

Edit: question or problems bout the 3minit framework should be asked here

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dreDrennon1:
Or just go back to where you downloaded the i9505 1.7 framework and download the 1.6 free version of the app which you CANNOT get in the playstore and it will work perfectly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sweets55:
Looking forward to this Rom. Is the download working or is just really slow?

Will this rom be 100% sprint de bloated or is this as good as it will get for now?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Soon enough you will be able to choose every component of the ROM yourself. Once Aroma installer gets touchscreen fixed for our device expect a quick release
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
Wait till u guys see the battery life im getting with this rom!! crazy!! ILL post screen shot in a bit :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] venumx:
What kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
im using faux123 003 kernel because the the kernel that comes with the rom borks wifi at the moment
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Shadow_God:
No kernel borks the wifi....you can flash any kernel to get wifi again.....the wifi drivers isn't getting loaded on initial flash for some reason
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
That is correct.

Me and Shadow_God have been working on this issue since last night and will keep trying to fix the issue. Stay tuned for more info

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Maglin:
I'm loving this ROM. Came from Vison and didnt wipe data since it is a 4.2.2 rom. Boot up with the supplied kernel was very long every time. Installed KT kernel and boot up is quick. Also wouldn't go into deep sleep with the supplied kernel but does with KT.

I also tried a fix permissions but it fails every time. Just letting you know. One thing that I miss is the wake on home. It doesn't work which makes it hard to wake when in a dock. Everything else is working as far as I can tell.

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 PM ----------

Just realized the visual voicemail app didnt install. Im going to try to reinstall over this install. Btw I installed from internal SD.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] apexcell:
I tried fix permissions in TWRP 2.5.0.2, and it worked just fine.

To wake on home:

Settings -> My device -> ROM Control -> Button Options -> put a checkmark in "Home button wake", then uncheck it again.

That setting needs to be cycled once (checked then unchecked... final setting: unchecked) for it to work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Maglin:
Apexcell thank you. I put TWRP 6.2.0.0 on and now was able to do wipes and fix permission. It wouldnt allow access to data prior and probably the root of my minor issues. Reinstalled over its self and got sprint voice mail back. Also this time the Agat kernal is going into deep sleep so im going to stick with it. I did have one reboot after the first boot. I fixed permissions and not uad one sense.

I did install the leaked Driod X camera and it force closes on the top two ootions which I dont know what they are. Going to fix permission again to see if that is the case. I also saved the instal log prior to help clark with the trouble shooting but it didnt save because of the access issues I had prior.

And for the heating issues people are having I think it is from something maxing the cpu in a loop. I only get warm or hot when the cpu is being worked. People might want to see what it r7nning in the background.

Thanks for the best ROM I've used since Sonic V2.

Rocking v2 like a champ now! Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mjs2011:
Thinking about flashing this tonight. Didn't see anything in the op but do I need to do something with Knox?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Maglin:
Use root explorer and delete it from system apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] g_ding84:
Not trying to jump on Ya. Did you check the MD5 SUM before you flashed it? Sounds like a bad download.

For a rule of thumb. I always download a ROM to my PC, check MD5 and then transfer over.

A few mods here or there are fine to download to a phone. But like I said before sounds like a bad download and the zip is probably corrupt.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Disneyfist:
Can someone help me with the permission notification? I keep trying to locate the seandroid to freeze it, but it never shows up on the list.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Those are the knox apps just delete those.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
I had "Samsung Knox" listed as an app in my settings>manage applications>all

I had removed the other knox already and I didn't have any idea where it was - I had already cleared cache, dalvik, root explored, adb explored, and even used the twrp file manager to scour the phone and couldn't find any more knox...

I googled and came up with Containeragent.apk

This might be the Samsung Knox he is talking about?

I removed it with no ill effects a few days ago
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Again just delete the apps in system that begin with knox there should be two of them
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bavarianblessed:
I have downloaded and installed this twice but I'm having issues.

1st install, I opted not to install the xposed framework. After selecting all my options and starting the installation it stopped with an error at around 18% saying that a directory related to xposed couldn't be found. Sorry I didn't make note of the full error.

2nd install I opted to install the exposed framework and the install completed just fine. The phone booted and I went through the typical setup process connecting to WiFi and then setting up my google account. After entering my Google credentials the phone goes to a black screen and is completely unresponsive. Pulling the battery and booting back up takes me to the google account setup again and the process repeats.

Is there something I am doing wrong or are these known issues?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] BigMoose81:
I know this is a really old post but I am running into the same problem. The solution at that time was go into Rom Toolbox and freeze the SEAndroid (recommended by Shadow) but I don't see that app when i look in the Rom Toolbox. Here are screen shots.

The other thing I have noticed is that I cannot wake up my phone when pressing the home button, I guess this saves battery when in my pocket, i just have to get use to it, but do I have the option to have it wake it up?

For my first issue, Romantic kid just provided a suggestion. I found Samsung Knox notification manager and uninstalled, it removed all KNOX related items. Ill keep you posted as to how it helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
For the buttom I believe you suppose to go to rom control, and button options i dont remember im not im the rom and alrighty
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] BigMoose81:
Thanks Romantic, yeah I went into the Rom Control and found the option in the button menu and was able to enable the ability to wake up the screen.

To the issue with the device information dialog, I am no longer getting that message after removing the KNOX application. Thanks again.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

I have been on this ROM for a few days now coming from straight stock. Thanks to the team from bringing this out and creating it, I have noticed a better battery life and not too much done over the top (I am biased since I prefer the stock look and feel and none of the theming, bells and whistles).

This ROM does the trick for me. Thanks for all our hard work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
I kept getting the "Detection Information" warning and I had "Samsung Knox" listed as an app in my settings>manage applications>all up until a few days ago

I had removed the other knox as reccomended earlier in the thread already and I didn't have any idea where it was coming from - I had already cleared cache, dalvik, root explored, adb explored, and even used the twrp file manager to scour the phone and couldn't find any more knox... with multi reboots I was getting real frustrated.

I googled and came up with Containeragent.apk

This might be the Samsung Knox he is talking about?

I removed it with no ill effects a few days ago, the popup warning is gone

anyone know??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] apexcell:
Have you tried using Titanium Backup to search for KNOX yet? It's free and works just fine to remove the issue.
