I flashed the Rom finally after seeing all of the problems thinking a clean install with multiple wipes would do the trick but that was not the case instead I had multiple force close issues, I couldn't get any launchers to load just had a black screen for my home screen had to wait for an app to update and send a notification to open it went back to sacs rom for now
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] galaxys3man30:
What recovery are you using and the verison?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
I dunno, I didn't make the ROM. But honestly he can add/remove anything he wants from his ROM's lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] k2buckley:
X2. I haven't had one force close or problem with the Rom at all. I used twrp, whatever version ends with 02
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] galaxys3man30:
Yea thats the 2.5.0.2 verison of twrp is the recommended verison to use when flashing this rom

Im having the same issue but I noticed that the volume controls are locked when the phone goes to sleep but it doesn't do it on the stock rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] intron1:
Just to help with diagnosing what is happening - my experience was that I used the latest TWRP (2.6.something I think) that I updated through goomanager. I did a complete wipe and then installed via TWRP. I haven't had any FC or anything really weird. Most of my 'issues' have been me figuring out the options n such.

Speaking of which, I have a question about a setting that I can't seem to change.

Under Settings>Rom Control>Statusbar Options

Both "hide statusbar" and "alarm icon" are checked. I can uncheck them but nothing changes and when I go back to the options, they are checked again. I can't seem to get the unchecking to stick. Anyone have any idea what I am missing?

thanks!

Otherwise, this ROM is nice. The updated modem is very welcome for me and has made a huge difference in signal strength and connection. I am still playing with the rest of it. I like all the customization options. Thanks clark!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] yoh65:
I did that, anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dreDrennon1:
Twrp 5.02 I think it is it is the same one I used with this room last time I haven't upgraded it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
2.6.3 works perfectly here

I fresh installed rom using twrp. But every time I boot up it only makes it a few seconds passed the screen before rebooting. Any suggestions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Settings > My device > ROM Control > Audio options > Music Control

:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
You can try installing it from their thread. I'll probably make a flashable for it but I'm not gonna make that default in the ROM. I'm hoping to have the torch while screen is off fixed for v3.0.1. Stay tuned. And you wont have to download an entire ROM ;D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] twoeleven99:
All these problems I'm reading about...I flashed without a single hiccup. Maybe re download and try again ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Will be fixed soon buddy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Go to Settings > ROM Control > Lockscreen > Check and uncheck AOSP lockscreen.

:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Just some bugs in the Smali for ROM Control. Hopefully I'll have it fixed for 3..0.1. Thanks for pointing that out!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Hmm lets try this. Download AGATS latest stock kernel. Flash the ROM after a clean fresh wipe. Let the device boot etc. If you experience the reboot go back into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. Then flash the AGAT kernel you just downloaded. Let me know how it goes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
I can't wake up my phone with home button

The settings through nottach and rom control for this does nothing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
THANK YOU!!!!!

It seems like everyone has moved on from wanting the Torch Toggle in notification except me lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chicagoaan:
1. Use File Manager with root explorer instead and mount SYSTEM as WRITABLE.

2. Go to: /data/data/ look for com.sec.knox.seandroid and rename it to 000.knox.seandroid or whathever you wish.. Same thing applies to com.sec.knox.store

3. Go to: /system/app/ and DELETE: KNOXAgent.apk, KNOXAgent.odex, KNOXStore.apk, KNOXStore.odex
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Open Settings > ROM Control > Button Options

Check and uncheck disable home button wake. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
Nope didn't work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Try it again because it worked for everyone else but you. Which is impossible lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] apexcell:
Installed and it's working really well. Love the options.

I switched over to the KT kernel, since I like the options and am really really undervolted.

XQuickSettingsToggles isn't able to change the number of toggles, though that's related to the app, not this ROM. ROM Control and Wanam Xposed don't seem to play too well together (ie. Clock position changes), or else I'd use Wanam to change the number of toggles.

You're not the only one. I'd love the Torch toggle on the brightness slider icon or reboot menu, since I don't use a lockscreen at all (wallet case).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Link to a thread with a brightless slider torch toggle?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] apexcell:
It was added to Nottach Xposed in v11, v12.

It never worked for me for MF9, only MDL. Did it work for anyone else on MF9?

Maybe another way to go is crawrj's Extended Power Menu Mod?

Sacs ROM uses something similar.

Working fine for me on MF9.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] salincer:
So after 2 flashes I still am having issues with the kernel. My phone gets super hot and restarts once it gets so hot.

Any suggestions on a kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] twoeleven99:
Question

Off top I know but I get a wake lock situation with every single.custom kernel ive tried. Is that just a known issue right now with the kernels ? Or just my phone ? And.should I just flash the stock mf9 kernel ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
i tried several times to load this, and even restored from MDC->MDL->MF9->root->twrp 2.5.0.2 and it gets very hot and sluggish near middle-top of phone. sorry clark
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Just odin straight to mf9. There had been reports a long time ago that just taking ota makes your phone get hot when running mf9 roms. Before you odin to mf9 do a factory reset and after also them root them install twrp 2.5.0.2 then the rom. Also could be the kernel. Use other kernels.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
ok thanks, im doing it now. what kernel should i go with?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Right now im running it with chronic kernel but it all about which one you like just try out the kernels
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] edisepic:
I flashed agat 5 and everything is smooth

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

I was having the same issues I just wiped cache and dalvik

and flashed Agat 5 and everything is smooth
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
i am doing it right now and it seems to be alot better... so the moral of the story... dont use stock kernel... use AGAT 5 and wipe it like it was wine on your wedding dress:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
#TeamSonic is looking kinda dead :-p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
Runs ok.. but still hot. This was cooler then what it was before
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] salincer:
For all those having issues of phone running hot - try the chronic kernel :cool:

TWhttp://chronic-buildbox.dyndns-server.com/jf/ChronicKernel-JB4.2-TW-INTL-v1.1.zip

AOSPhttp://chronic-buildbox.dyndns-server.com/jf/ChronicKernel-JB4.2-AOSP-INTL-v2.1.zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] intron1:
Same here - sort of. The phone works just fine but if I hit the 'record' button, the phone app freezes up. I usually can still use the phone but I can't end calls or anything else. Everytime I have had to reboot the phone. I guess this means I won't record the mafia calls I am getting until the kinks get worked out. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] krazy57wagon:
Having the same issue, however, nothing fixes it. Below are the steps I did.

Installed 3.0 over 2.0, via TWRP 2.5.0 (Knew it would give problems, but I had to try it :) )

Did a full wipe, installed 3.0 with default settings.

Undated MF9 via Odin, installed Twrp 2.5.0.2, wiped to factory, installed using default settings

Wiped Cache and Dalvik and installed Agat V .5

Wiped Cache and Dalvik and installed Chronic Kernel

Restored back to V2.0 :(

Regardless of each step I did, the same result, Phone got extremely hot top center of the screen (also back portion near the sim/sd card) after about 20 seconds, the phone would power off.

Any Advice is appreciated.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] im4u2hear:
I luv this rom...thank u for your hard work... i have a weird problem After installing v 3.0 after phone reboots it just sits at "samsung sg4" screen . I have let sit there for 30min and it

Wont budge. .. if I go into recovery password comes up when I hit cancel I go to mount and data is not there... the only way for me to fix this is to format all data. .... then I can reinstall. ... and if after everything is done I reboot phone it will be stuck at "Samsung sg4 " screen. If I do a quick reboot its fine only power off and full reboot into anything kills the phone. .. ive tried twrp 2.60 2.502 oudh

All the same
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
I'm most likely doing something wrong can you tell me what

Video of me attempting again: http://youtu.be/yvL0a7tiDdA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
I am having NONE of these problems you guys are having. I did a full wipe on the latest TWRP, installed with default kernel, and everything is running perfectly. Only problem I had was Google+ FC'ing a few times. So I just uninstalled it and re-installed it from play store. This got me through a hockey game with no problems and I took many pictures/videos of the game. No overheating what so ever. Also home button wake is working perfectly after I followed his directions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Hmm that is weird. Do you have any Xposed Modules activated that mess with the homebutton at all? Nottach, Wanam? If so check the options set in that specific module it might be intervening with the MOD.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
So nottach was the problem, I've been switching the home button settings like a crazy man. I just never tried the check, uncheck method.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clockworkmodsucks:
So I've noticed a couple problems. This is after a fresh start from using Odin to MF9 and using TWRP 2.5.0.2

My Google Play Music app crashes every 5 minutes. Phone will occasionally get hot towards the top of the screen and if I try changing kernel settings with the default one with the Franco app the phone will freeze, show some colors and then restart, restart again and then finally boot up. If the phone screen is turned off and I try turning up the volume it won't change. Otherwise great ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Derokk:
I got the same exact issue
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
Yeah it wound up being hot and even using the 2amp charger. .. it wouldn't charge. It was so hot I used it for a hot compress and got burnt.

I did it right and gave me issues. I did redo mf9 then twrp 2.5 and wiped and did exactly what was recommended. Just going to use the nowizasop till there is a solution
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Did you use a different kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
I'm using the default installed kernel, didn't change any kernel settings, and it's running quite cool actually.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] majid25:
No problems at all here, installed stock mf9 kernel to get WiFi working and that's about it. Everything else is smooth great ROM Clark, thanks for coming through with an update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jrollercoasters:
I would just flash v2 because it runs very smooth with no issues its what im running till 3 gets worked out

Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Have you tried v3.0.0? Lots of the issues people are having seem to be different depending on the device. Its very weird how the kernel is acting around different devices.

The only way to know if the ROM is running smooth for you is to flash it and see.

Wiping is always important and ensuring that you have a full download is very important.

Try wiping /system /data /dalvik-cache /cache

If that still gives you issues then try getting me a logcat so I can debug the issues. When I have a reboot problem that happens with only a hanful of devices during only a handful of conditions its very hard for me to pin point the issue.

Thanks for your support :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] reverepats:
Yeeeah buddy. FINALLY getting around to using 3.0. Curious what these issues poeple are having. But look forward to be back on Sonic!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
For the record I always wipe EVERYTHING except the external SD card. ROM is working flawlessly for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Kafluke:
Holy crap! I've been waiting for this. I have been using FreeGS4 2.0 since I first got my GS4 and tried just about every other build out there. I love 2.0 and have been waiting for an upgrade. Great job team sonic!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] buzzwyzr:
Any suggestions for an old sap like me who can't get 3.0.0 to boot? Aroma finishes and the phone reboots to the Samsung Galaxy S4 splash screen...then goes to a black screen. I've let it sit for 5 minutes thinking it was part of the initial boot process but nothing happens.

Full wipe of everything except internal and external cards.

Downloaded from both direct download links in the OP (once each to my phone and once each to my PC) with the same result.

It must be something I'm missing because everyone else is enjoying this ROM.

Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ParkerParker:
Im thinking you may need to wipe internal? Unless that's just a typo :):beer::beer:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] g_ding84:
Just trying help out a bit. From past experiences on the E4GT there were issues on my ROMs when ppl would flash it from the external SD card and not from the internal storage. I'm not sure if that could be an issue on this device because the recovery can see both. But like I said before I have seen issues when flashing a ROM from external SD Card on the E4GT.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
I only flash from external SD and this ROM is working 100% for me. All I need now is some 3minit lovin! :-p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] buzzwyzr:
So I need to wipe my internal sd? Not sure about that...

Appreciate the suggestion. Installing from internal sd. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ParkerParker:
I move everything to external and do a full wipe including internal and have never had a single issue :):beer:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] imneveral0ne:
Same here, I have everything important saved to my external SD card so I wipe the crap out of everything except that. Maybe the people who are having trouble just aren't wiping hard enough? :p

You can also go HERE. All of the MF9 launchers should work fine with this rom. I don't remember how many of these Clark included with this rom, but I think there are a couple more choices in my thread, including a landscape enabled one.

I went to rom control and added torch option as well as the option to remove the koyboard icon that pops up everytime i use the keyboard but neither of them work :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] TheRectified:
You need SPlannerAppWidget_NAmerica.apk. I don't remember seeing it in the installer.

Anyway, I attached it. Use something like Root Browser to put the APK into the /system/app folder, reboot and you have the widget back!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Thanks a BUNCH. Looks like I felt that out I'll make a flashable ASAP and have it included in Aroma for the next release.

Thank Clark44!

Love this ROM.

4 months ago my wife and I switched from Verizon to Sprint, and from old HTC Incredible OGs to a Samsung Galaxy S4s.

I tried an AOSP ROM but it was buggy. I tried a TW ROM, not this one, was having random reboots playing music.

Tried FreeGS4 v2.0 and was blown away. This ROM is smooth, stable, fast, and has good battery life. For some reason mine has run a little hot, my wife's doesn't, and that is the only anomaly I'm aware of.

Great ROM, now made even greater with an update.

Downloading right now, very excited to update.

To everyone not having issues I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

TWRP 2.5.0.2

factory reset

wipe system/cache/dalvik/data aka everything

Then flash ROM ??

Do I need to flash a firmware after that? (I flashed crawjr's mf9 firmware 2 months ago) My baseband and version already show mf9.

Can I remove the knox out of the .zip before I flash?

Am I forgetting anything? (On my HTC I always factory reset through stock recovery then used CWM, still learning the TWRP).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
With twrp just factory wipe, wipe cache/dalvik then flash the ROM.

You don't need to flash firmware as ROMs do not change it. So you will stay on MF9 firmware (modem).

And as far as Knox you can delete it after installing by using a root browser/explorer and going to System/app then deleting it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
Ya I can remove the Knox later, but that takes longer and is tedious. Do I have to let them install with the ROM or can I preemptively remove them and a few other apps I have zero interest in (SNS, g+, couple others) from the ROM's .zip file before I flash?

/ponder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ifly4vamerica:
You can delete from the zip before you flash. I delete everything I don't use and haven't had any problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jonathanlc2005:
