Anybody else's photos being rotated for some reason?? In gallery they show up fine, however when i go to share them, they are all turned. See attached for reference
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
Actually I'm having the opposite problem, my photos are turned in the gallery, but not when I open them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dan0545:
Is there a mirror to download the rom itself? I am still getting the same error page when I click on the rom link from the vzw s4 page. Addons, mods and themes all have working links.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
very weird... which gallery are you using... im using quickpic

any luck with this... http://slimroms.net/index.php/downl...3273-slim-jfltevzw-4-2-2-build-6-8-weekly-274

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_Bobber0:
This is a huuuuuge disappointment, GPS FINALLY WORKS but can't make calls nooooo!!!! Please fix! This is the holy grail of roms!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
i have to agree...

im sure the devs are working hard to fix it. Im not really used to things not working as i came from a galaxy nexus and everything works from day 1 with the roms... Im sure they will get it fixed very shortly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_Bobber0:
As soon as someone finds a way to get the calls working again I'm jumping back on 6.8..I dirty flashed back down to 6.5 to try and save GPS but no luck...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
same here.... gps works, i just have to uncheck that option for apps access. So halfway works i guess. :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_Bobber0:
Lol well yes me too, but hey who cares... wait does that mean my "mapmyrun" app still wont be able to use GPS to track my distance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
hahahaha.... MAAAAAAYBEEEE
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_Bobber0:
lol I I want for Christmas is a GPS fuctioning ASOP rom.

*EDIT* Got a lock on 6.5 I initially had wifi/mobile location disabled, then enabled it. It found me on wifi obviously, then I disabled it, and brought up navigation and it was able to find location again and give me directions. MapMyRun app works too... Maybe be good to go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I'm just using the stock gallery. I've also noticed that sometimes an image will appear sideways in the gallery view, and then when I open it, it is actually another picture. Weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dan0545:
Yeah those work thank you so much.

But as I'm reading I should probably flash the 6.5 due to issues of no phone on the newest one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
you are absolutely right... sorry about that.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
A couple of questions:

Is there a way to disable the notification light JUST for emails? I get a lot of work emails and its annoying when the light comes on all the time. I still want to have the notification light for missed calls, texts, etc.

Is it possible to theme the Messaging app? I really like the HTC Sense style that looks like post-its. See the screenshot.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
Super excited for an update to this. I really like this rom. My favorite so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dan0545:
What is everyone running for DPI? My icons and text are so tiny
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
I'm running whatever dpi is stock for this rom. I love the small font. One of the best parts for me. I tried some others and they are all so big. Was looking for an app to change it, but ended up staying with this rom.

Watching this closely for an update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
360
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I quite like the way things are resized too, and the screen is still quite sharp. What typically does dpi change though?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I'm using stock, 480.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xboxexpert:
Anyone having camera issues. Like I take three pictures and the camera needs to be force closed and reopened.

I use 420 DPI

The new 6.9 weekly is up. Flashing now...

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------

I flashed 6.9 (doing a full wipe) and immediately after rebooting I got a Verizon message: "System software not authorized by Verizon wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help."

It's safe to say I almost crapped myself because I thought I bricked my phone. Luckily I was able to get into recovery and restored my 6.5 build. Is anyone else getting this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Same thing was post by someone on the att version I think it something with Loki just flash a Loki kernel after the ROM or do what i did flash lokidoki I always keep that file handy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I flashed loki-doki and it worked like a charm. Thanks!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
off topic question. has anyone used heimdall to root this device? really looking forward to running slim on the sgs4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Why not just use motochopper ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
According to all the instructions i need to flash the prerelease kernel to remove rootblock before using motochopper. running linux os i have to use heimdall to flash but am stuck because it will not recognize device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Sorry didn't realize the verizon versoin needed a diff kernel to root I don't think adamoutlter has made a crossplatform installer yet for this model anyway to use WINE or other windows emulator to make odin work ?

sent from my galaxy s4 leet (i337)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
Not sure. About to head to work now. Will have to look into it later. Thanks for the help. If you run across anything let me know please.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XfrostX:
Does 6.9 fix the phone issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
The no call audio issue yes it does fix it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XfrostX:
For those who messed up and didnt flash a loki kernel after or loki-doki

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/41841-lo...tom-boot-image-on-att-and-verizon-galaxy-s-4/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
Any other reports on how this one runs? Is stuff merged from the Google Edition ROM I'm guessing? I've been highly tempted to go down that route but it's so brand new and already almost working perfectly that it won't be very long before it IS perfect lol.

...that and the fact that 4.3 is leaked because of it makes me want to wait for that to be perfected
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
a little bit confused here, we didn't have to flash anything extra on 6.5. Did this just get missed on 6.9?

And just to confirm, you flash the loki-doki from link above in recovery after flashing the newest weekly? (or a different kernel if desired?)

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I'm just guessing here but I believe it wasn't included in the weekly for some reason, because I've never had to run loki-doki before 6.9. I flashed loki-doki after I flashed 6.9 and gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
got it, thanks.

Looking forward to an update. I really like this rom.

A few annoyances I hope get fixed, but really liking it so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
can someone confirm the loki-doki tool is no longer needed --> link removed, thanks for testing ;)

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
^welcome back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
Just started flashing 6.9 when I saw this. I will finish that install, run a backup and try it today sometime. I'll report back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
link removed, thanks for testing ;)

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
flashing it now.....

---------- Post added at 08:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

Just flashed, no loki-doki needed for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
reporting in. so far, all good. Made a few phone calls and some texts. No issues so far.

Still my favorite rom yet for this phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XfrostX:
I got GPS on 6.8 but not on 6.9. Anyone know how to fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] paulg1981:
GPS is working for me, but I had to uncheck mobile data and WiFi networks. Hope it helps :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XfrostX:
Fixed it. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ch0use:
Coming from 6.5 to build 6.9, I got the Verizon nasty message about custom software detected, etc. Rolled back to 6.5 backup and downloaded loki-doki, then re-flashed 6.9 and loki-doki, boots 6.9 successfully now...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
Yup. I was testing newer build than 6.9. 6.9 still requires loki-doki.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
hmmm... (this is 6.9, haven't had this issue before)

Makes me wonder what my battery life would be without a wakelock lol. I did also install KT kernel, which I quickly switched out for Chronic because of reboots, but this doesn't seem like a kernel issue.

EDIT: This is even more curious, because I had almost an hour of screen on time too...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
To get rid of that wakelock you need to install the newest version of play store. Just "google" play store 4.1.10.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I have the slim gapps installed which includes that version though... I even just double checked the version number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
Strange. That fixed Google services wake lock for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I just turned off any and all update checking (I had it on Wifi only, but still) in the Play Store app and we'll see what happens I suppose. I'm not sure I understand how I've yet to have this issue until now...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ch0use:
Is there a build newer than 6.9 publicly available? http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/all/viewcategory/618-jfltevzw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Nope on slims main page u will see build 7 wip usually this mean the next official build with be up in the next 3 to 5 days its a code freeze fixing any little bugs since its an official

Hey Cordell I know u submitted the remote commit for the or blaster is that in this build didn't see it in the change log and where is privacy guard settings can't seem to find them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ch0use:
Reading the Changelog http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/changelog/343-build-7-changelog it sounds like we don't need to wipe coming from 6.9 but can dirty flash 7+gapps+extras on top of 6.9?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Yup dirty flashed here working fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BossJ:
Is the performance tab gone? and I heard Halo would be in this build? Last minute change?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Nah halo is a way off was causing issue from what I read gplus and isnur developers options turn on performance won't show up if it isn't just tap the build number in about phone ten times

I saw a commit a while ago saying that the jflite model had wolrd phone capabilities added? Does that mean we can use other GSM networks such as ATT or Rogers without going to touchwiz?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
its still being tested, well really its fine but waiting on CM to see what they are going to do with HTC.

give me a few days and I'll post a beta build with IR

Some of this code is merged into Slim. There is still a APN commit that has not been merged. However it may or may not currently work, dont think anyone has tried, or reported if they did.

Anyone have slow lte? Mine won't get above 2.5mb per second. Is it supposed to show 4g or lte?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
I'm not the same carrier as u so I can't speak for speed but on aosp ROMs its

h= 3g

h+ = HSDPA

4g = lte
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jakeneal22:
Anyone got the kernel that comes with this ROM or a recommendation of a good kernel for this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Just reflash the ROM if u want the kernel it comes with if ur using a different one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jakeneal22:
Decided to try out chronic kernel. We will see how this goes.

How's battery on this bad boy?

Depends on apps , usage, cell service but most get great battery with stock kernel with asswax gov
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
Does this ROM not support corporate email?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
I believe the stock email app works it also have the security email exchange services in it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
I have installed the exchange services but my stock email apk keeps failing to install. I didn't see either included in the ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Its not included in the regular slim gapps sorry should have mentioned that download aio( all in one ) gapps from slims website and dirty flash it and u will have email4.0 app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
Success! Thanks man

Is it ok to install the new Google Maps or should I wait for it to be a part of the next gapps build?

U can install its safe it should be included in the next weekly gapps update this weekend its only an app if it causes issues uninstall and restore the last backup from tibu

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrisjm00:
I'm getting very bad media server drain. I remember seeing a patch for that, I just don't remember if this ROM was where I saw it. Anyone have any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
You can change the media scanner behavior in the developer options section. I personally keep my on 'ask to scan'.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
I think he is talking about media server not sure if its one and the same mine is always number two or three on my battery stat list but that's cuz I have no music on my.phone I stream Pandora 8 to ten hours a day ( media server doesn't show up for me at all on my days off when I dont stream music )

Hope this helps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrisjm00:
The thing is, I don't use any of that. My phone was held awake for 13 hours+ today; the same amount of time my phone was off the charger. That was simply sitting at my desk too.

Chronic kernel did fine. Didn't notice to much of a difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Maybe a rogue app or a corrupt sound file maybe try better battery stats or wake lock dectector both should give u more info to what's causing the wakelock

The only issue I have with this Rom is am interface issue. If you go to the clock app, All the hour numbers are higher than the minutes. Here are some screenshots. My dpi is at 400 btw. Anyone know of a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Use stock slim DPI 361 that will fix it otherwise play with higher dpi 's til it goes away
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
Any word on build 8? I effing LOVE this ROM, best one here.

EDIT: Just saw his twitter feed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XfrostX:
For those who use stock slimbean DPI, do you think its too small for the eyes? I've been using it for months and really like it but everyone that see's my phone usually reacts with "Whys your **** so small." I've been using it so long, I guess i just got used to it. Anyone else use stock slim?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
I use it and love it flash the Google ROM when it first hit to check it out and was like eww way to big the only thing I change is font size to large from the default medium other then that I agree with u slim DPI rocks it was the main reason I started using these ROMs back in the day
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
Just made the move to 7.2 (dirty flash) and the new gapps with the AIO installer, everything seems to be working (including reinverting some apps that were normal, which was nice) but now Google Now/Search is broken and crashes every time I try and search, voice or text. What should I do?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found Eclipse's inverted Google Now package and it works flawlessly upon flashing. Probably not a system app anymore but whatever, that's of absolutely no consequence to me. Gonna take this bad boy for a spin with the new Chronic Kernel and see if my battery life is even more ridiculous haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hpower1:
I just really like this rom. Only things that really bother me are:

-dim screen on call end and takes a few secs to return to normal brightness

-unable to make call/answer call issue - usually happens 1-2 times per day, sounds like a common CM issue right now. Although for me, this rom doesn't seem to be as bad on this issue as CM or liquid.

-I just flashed official build 7, but I had a lot of issues for sounds (ringtones, alarms) losing their setting. It would show some random # and would not have any sound to it at all. Not sure if ROM or maybe my 64gb sd card?

Still the best Rom for me. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I think right after flashing I had some issues with the notification sounds just not playing at all, all I did was double check my volume and went back to the sound settings and chose them again... they played the preview, and everything's worked since.

Not sure about the ringtones 100% since no one's called me, but I'm pretty sure that will be working fine too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
Ah, just found my first major bug with this... the camera app works but the aspect ratio is way off and has a major blue tint to it. Even the snapchat camera works fine so it definitely is the app. I'll try an alternate one in the meantime, maybe try out the 4.3 one heh
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
Turn on true view that's fixes the appearance of being stretched

---------- Post added at 01:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 AM ----------

Haven't had this happen since before build 7 but it only aftected non stock ringtones I usually just fixed permissoins and all was well just an fyi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I've encountered the stretching issue etc. before, that's not what's happening here. The blue tint is the bigger issue, it's not minor... everything is very blue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
If its not just the camera that's blue but everything go to settings }device } color temp can change it til u like the color
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
It's just the camera app and the pictures it took. Snapchat worked just fine, as did any other camera app I tried. I just installed the 4.3 camera and everything is peachy now lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I've been having an issue where my GPS stays active even after I've turned it off, and the only way I've gotten it to stop is by rebooting the phone each time. I can tell that it is still active by going to my battery stats and looking at the Maps entry. You can see that the GPS on-time increases each time I refresh despite the fact that location services are off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oddspec:
R u running the latest gapps ? Cuz there was a maps update either that or freeze maps and see if it still does it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I am running the latest gapps, but just installed the latest update. I'll see if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
I flash so many ROMs a day it seems and always come back to this one. With Ktweaker's kernel settings this battery life is simply amazing.

Only thing i wish it had was the lock screen icon rather than the slimbean icon, but hey, could be worse!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
which version of Kttonz' kernel are you using? Last time I tried it I got 4 hard reboots in about 15 hours so I switched to Chronic... also, do you have a particular settings config you like? And of course how good is 'amazing' :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
I am using the latest version with his recommended settings. By amazing mean it lasts me from 6:30am to 5pm at work and when i get home its at about 60-70% battery. I'm on it frequently at work sending and replying to emails. I also play music/podcasts in my car to and from work.

How has Chronic been treating you? Haven't flashed it yet. Does the OP has his recommended settings?

EDIT:

Right now I am on hyperdrive 6 testing it out and this was my benchmark with ktweaker

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I get pretty decent battery life with moderate/heavy usage on my phone, standby battery is fantastic, if I don't touch anything for hours I only lose a few percent. I'm not sure he has recommended settings, but he bakes in a couple of things standard that do quite well. Maybe one day I'll give KT another shot now that it seems the reboots are fixed... I liked everything else about it.

...I've been meaning to do this for a while, but I'm pretty sure it just sent me into a bootloop. ...****

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
thanks man!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
as an aside, I caved and flashed KT's kernel last night and tweaked it to his settings, except for the one he defaulted to a value of 0 (I think it was touchboost_cpu_allcores or something) because that seemed to be what caused the reboots on most ROMs. Haven't seen anyone really complain about it since and you seem to have good results with it, so I'm expecting great things haha. I'll report in with my findings soon
