No problem. I don't even have the phone yet. Just bored at work searching the forums anticipating getting it. I have a individual unlimited plan with an upgrade right now. Trying to figure out the best method to upgrade without buying it full price and without losing the unlimited.

Updated to include the blocking mode functionality has been removed completely on this device (not just hidden). Also found new Wifi Hotspot toggle that didn't even exist before.

EDIT: Added a few more toggles
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfgrrl:
Air Gesture has been figured out in the WIFI Toggle thread.......As well as DoNotDisturb and WIFIHotspot toggles.

A fix for "Home screens are not infinite-scroll anymore" is to edit /system/csc/feature.xml (I used Root Explorer) and set the CscFeature_Launcher_disablePageRotation value to false.

There are a few other useful things here as well - for example, I set CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu to true to re-enable the shutter sound menu in the camera app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Perfect! Makes sense that it would be in csc as that is usually where the customizations are stored for carrier specific settings. Thank you sir. Added to OP. :good:

Side-note: I have used all my "Thanks" buttons for the day (8 max) but I'll give you one tomorrow. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattyb65:
Idk if I'd call it for a fix but I discovered how to revert the Long pressing home button screen has text on the bottom instead of just icons change. I edited my build.prop to this:

ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus

ro.product.name=yakju

ro.product.device=maguro

And it caused the icons to show up instead of the text. Not sure if anyone cares but figured I'd pass it along.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Technically it's a workaround because you definitely don't want to leave your phone being seen on everything as a Galaxy Nexus but can you post us a screenshot just for verification? I'll add to OP on that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattyb65:
Yeah - I realize that. I was hoping that someone will be able to better recognize what that means and come up with a better solution. Here's your screenshot. Tried to get creative to show I'm on VZ.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Thank you sir! Based on the way it works I think it might be a simple fix. I'll try to look around see if I notice anything that can be modified safely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trogdor3222:
I noticed the same thing when I made the above changes in order to install Wallet last night. however, I get the feeling that the icons will show as long as these properties are NOT equal to the default VZW S4 values.

this claim is untested, but that's just my gut feeling.

Blocking mode is more than just hidden, but certainly not removed completely. It seems to be working just fine for me after adding the toggle back. It is the settings menu that seems to be somehow disabled and causing crashes if you try to access it. Suggested fix: Don't do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] smed1275:

Smart Pause doesn't show up in Notifcation Panel edit window

Thank you sir so much for all your efforts.

I found a Weird thing while enabling the Smart Pause toggle. It shows up in the notification panel and can be toggled on and off fine. However, when I go to the edit window to change the order of the toggles, it does not appear. I can manually change the position of the toggle by editing it's location in the "notification_panel_active_app_list" field in the sqlite editor. I just thought this was weird.

Edit: Also, if you change the order of any toggles after you manually change the location of the Smart Pause toggle, the Smart Pause toggle disappears from the list.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N00dle:
Will many of these work on the Verizon S3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AxAtAx:

web brwoser

Hello,

I see there are fixes for being able to circle back to the home screen when flipping through the others. However, I wanted to know if there is a fix for staying on the page when you choose to open a new web page. Every time i long click to open a new page in the browser when I am already looking at something, it irks my nerves to have to go to that page instead of staying on current page. I hope what I am saying makes sense. Any help is appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N00dle:
I agree this should be a sticky. I just happened upon it from another thread. Best $2.99 spent for the SQeditor to fix these issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] major payne:
Do we know if we have the ability to get the blocking mode from another Provider?

Another missing feature

Spam Messages is also missing from the message settings.. It gives you the ability to add a number to the spam list and all of the messages will go to a spam folder and not show up in the message list or notify you.

I tried to push the SecMMS apk from a t-mobile stock ROM, but I wasn't able to send MMS. I could receive MMS fine, but could not send. Kept getting "invalid destination address"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpen:
I have the same problem. But I also have GoSMS for the secretive spy messages, and I send my MMS through that. Yes it is a workaround but the black interface and other settings are definitely better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gam3r 4 Life:
Is there a way to add a flashlight toggle this way also?Right now Im using Power Toggles, but it would be nice to have one in the notification pull down. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mayesmwhite:
Does anyone have an idea on how to add Spam settings back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Stauf99:
sorry to ask but I couldn't find this anywhere else

how did you add the blocking mode toggle back? using "DoNotDisturb"?

when I did that I didn't get blocking mode in my settings menu

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamPro:
So these are almost all fixable by installing a popular ROM right?

What about wireless charging? I remember they removed it from the Note 2, what about the S4?

Can the phone be unlocked?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] richardhard:
Like you said, most of this stuff has fixes, but the two that really bummed me were the lack of optical reader and the lack of 50GB Dropbox (which I had to find out the hard way).

Tried using Samsung apps to download Optical Reader, only to find out that it is not compatible with the Verizon S4 (it wouldn't even install!). Hyperdrive RLS 4 added the international variant, but it needed to download from Samsung App store, and again, the incompatibility issue came back. Even if it was a useless feature, I did want to try it, and if I didn't like it, I would uninstall it, not Verizon.

As for Dropbox, this befuddles me: Verizon could make so much money off data use with a 50GB Dropbox account, so why disable it?

That being said, I will continue with Verizon because of the service it provides in my area (my previous provider, Sprint, was subpar in my area, but was good in other locations--plus, they are too slow on building their 4G service). However, if after 2 years I find a phone I like better (more than likely so), I will buy it unlocked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamPro:
You can prob (now or near future) get the DropBox from a custom ROM (I got mine from Beans on my Note 2) and the Optical Reader, if its not a hardware limitation then installing a TW ROM should give u it (now or down the road). Luckily there are a lot of nice developers out there that make the experience of using a VZN phone much much nicer :D

Glad they didn't **** this phone over like they did the Note 2 (branding and removing the wireless charging pins etc).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ReklezzTrini:
So I tried the adding the wifi toggle and that didnt work. It was id 201 for me.

Edit: Nevermind, I got it to work. When I searched "panel" I only had 2 options. 201 and 203. After I restarted the phone and searched "panel" again I got the right option. The id for it was 7946 or something like that.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dannyben:
Ok... You partially edited your OP, but you should also remove the download links and change Subject from "How To" to [REQ]. People will update their SystemUI and this will negatively affect many other icons & things.

And if anyone wants to try this (as the OP hasnt) rename original SystemUI to a .bak
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Deleted member 2653512:
Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I threw it up in a hurry as I'm about to head out the door. I'll correct it real quick before leaving.

UPDATE:

Works like a champ. I already modded my statusbar to be transparent. This battery looks great on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Are you talking about the one i made? And statusbar seems to go transparent if you are in the TouchWiz launcher or on the locksceen by default too. I also modded my own to allow me to "Swipe away" the stupid battery full notification.

elesbb Thanks for your time, but when i flash the ZIP the status bar disapear.:(

Please let me know if you need any file from my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
I had a feeling that might happen. It happens when things aren't signed. Let me try to sign the apk for you and see if it works. It may just do the same thing. But its worth a shot.

Flash attached zip again in recovery. Restore your nandroid first though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atagilbert:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Seems like a factory reset is your only option :\
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atagilbert:
I got a backup,

Question, do you know why is no working?,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Yes I do. It's signature verification. It checks the certificates of the apk and since they are different then original, it denies that app all permissions, which it needs in order to run. So flashing the modded apk, then factory reset, should reset the "stored" signatures.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atagilbert:
Factory reset and still no working,

I was playing and i was able to create SystemUI.apk that show the Circle battery in the phone but the % are not working (go from 100 to 87, 71, 57 etc) . I change the sys_bat and the sys_bat_charg xml to 1% but nothing,

If you don't mind can I post the apk for you to check what i did wrong?

Thanks in advace for all you help.:good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
So factory reset fixed the no status bar issue AND SystemUI force close issue? But the percentages aren't working?

Can you post a screenshot?

Bummer, it sounds like a bad screen, or someone broke the old one and replaced it with a standard LCD. Or a factory mistake.

Can you return it or get a replacement from LG?
[LG Optimus 3D] lgiorda:
that´s what i´m affraid, maybe a disconnected cable in the inside?

I bough it from ebay, I can return it to the seller and get a new one but that will take a month until it gets to his hand and another month until the new cellphone gets to mine, so im trying to solve it by myself first.

Never hear about this problem before? because i google it and couldnt find anyone with the same problem :(
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
No, that's odd. My guess is the seller bought it broken and replaced the screen with a standard one. I would think if something is not connected it would not work at all.

IDEA: ask forum member "Dr. Mario." He's sharp on things like this.

[LG Optimus 3D] Dr. Mario:
Standard LCD - most replacement LCDs doesn't come with ceramic plate (3D barrier). But, the ceramic plate can be shoehorned onto any LCD or possibly OLED screens as far as I am concerned.

Also, if present, check the thin ribbon cable leading to ceramic plate's driver chip (probably 7 pins ribbon cable) and reseat it on the motherboard.

If you ever find a dead P920 3D phone that's to be parted out, you probably can discombulate it for 3D screen - if it's untouched, good chance is that will still have intact LCD with original ceramic plate still on it. Try ebay.
[LG Optimus 3D] lgiorda:
thanks for the info man!

I don´t have the proper tools to full disassemble the phone, but i will get it in the next few days and come back here to tell what i found.

really apreciate your time!
[LG Optimus 3D] Dr. Mario:
If you don't know what's missing, go ahead and take picture of motherboard - you don't have to take it out - just leave it inside and I will know which plug's missing and will be able to say if it have 3D barrier ceramic plate or not. If you already have taken it apart, you can go ahead and take picture of LCD.

To the moderators: If I am 'that guy' that ruins the forum, then please delete my post and ban me from your website via what your mandatory video claims.

Objective(s): To find out what/if anything, I am doing wrong to "root" this phone. 2) What would be the easier method to root the phone?

Reason I am wanting to root: So I can remove the software that I will not use.

Steps I have taken:

I have tried looking at all of the steps and videos on this website but I am having issues with this one in particular. Getting HTC to Step 9 under the unlock Bootloader Ref 9A and 9b found here: It is on the HTC website, forum will not let me post link.

When I submit it to HTC, the popup claims that the sequence is not long enough. This is after I have copy/pasted following the pictures exactly.

I have even tried step 4 of Hasoon's software. It also informs me that the sequence is not long enough.

What am I wanting in a solution:

A layman's explanation on what I am doing wrong, how to fix said mistake, and possible correction to place me on the right path. I will provide any and all information requested, just assume I am a moron who is trying to learn.

Thank you for reading.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
No problem man, welcome to the community, first on what os(operating system) are you on, also have you tried to check you copied the unlock code completely, HTC website needs more than the code needs the <<<<unlock token start>>>>>

and

<<<<<<unlock tocken end>>>>

submitted too, probably that's your problem
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dadeluma2013:
Thank you.

I am using a fully updated Windows 7 OS. I am retracing my steps as I type this. Thank you again for your prompt response

. I am now getting the response following HTC steps to unlock bootloader: 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

Suggestions?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dadeluma2013:
I also tried Hasoons software again and this is what I am getting:

Error Code: 160.

Error Reason: MID Not Allowed.

Has Verizon place a lock on the phone where I cant get the information?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
means fastboot isnt installed, my unlock package includes it so use as you like, my thread is the only one sticked on the development section, with that zip you should be able to unlock your bootloader, i saw your other post and saw mid not allowed, meaning you didnt supercid, that package i told you about will do it for you
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dadeluma2013:
Thank you again for your reply.

Now, if I unlock it using your "gunlock 3.5" and I am able to unlock the bootloader. Would I be able to root? If so, what method should I use? Again, I am a huge noobish moronic mouthbreather that is just dipping my toes into this world.

However, I am a lawyer by trade and if you are in Louisiana and ever need free legal counsel I would be more than glad to offer it :D
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dadeluma2013:
Successfully unlocked! Thank you!!!

Last question (I hope)

Is the phone rooted? If not, how do I safely do this?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
install twrp 2.3 from the development section, then boot into it and select reboot then system, it will tell you it isnt rooted and will do it for you
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dadeluma2013:
Rooted it, it took a few times to do so. Thank you so much for your help and assistance. I have donated an amount that I hope is reflective of my gratitude.:D

Again, I apologize for the hand holding throughout this endeavor. I truly appreciate all of your help.

To Mods:

I would suggest that you place this as a thread called "HTC rooting for the True NOOB"
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:

There are a few ROMs that are based off of stock that you can flash, which in mind (and probably everyone else's) opinion will be that much better than stock, maybe choose one of those to flash? And as far as I know you won't need need to flash the kernel afterwards as its based off stock but can't say for sure, never been s-on before
