Night made, thanks Scott! Can't wait to try it. Downloading now :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
So how did you do it? I've been finding with all the color changing for hours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Obsidian_soul:
Thanks for feeding my flashing addition
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:
On the download link for RLS 18 I think you put extra bold tags. Might be just Tapatalk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rahel513:
Been using a lot of international roms recently. With that being said will tamirida mod work on this rom , if I want more S5 features?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kasper DG:
If I'm using 17.1, which I did from a 100% clean flash, can I just dirty flash 18 over my 17.1? I really don't want to have to wipe everything again lol. But I will if I have to I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pip77:
This might be a stupid question from a novice Galaxy S4 owner but here it goes.....

I am running version Hyperdrive RLS 17.1 at this time. Version 18 is up and I have it downloaded. Can I just flash the new version over the current 17.1 or should I do the typical "4. Wipe Data/Factory Reset, 5. Wipe cache and dalvik cache, 6. Install Rom, etc" route?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Azuma73:
Stoked for the RLS18 action...... thanks Scott. Anyone else considering the "Dirty"!?!?

Please post results(not complaints) if you do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
I always recommend wiping ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xaZnxbOyx:
i'm currently on rls 17.1, ever since I upgraded to rls 17.1 my gps takes about 4-5 minutes to lock. Is there a certain radio I can flash to improve this? I've tried looking it up, seen people say to tighten the screws on the back, use gps lock, gps status (toolbox), fastgps, nothing seems to really work. Any suggestions? The biggest problem is in google maps, it'll say gps lost after a few minutes, then a few minutes later it'll lock the gps again. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dustyjerran:
its not letting me open the zip file on my phone to flash MD5 match i am re downloading now to see if its a bad download is any one else having issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
So, I am on 17.1 with Ktoonz kernel and a few Xposed modules. MDK dev edition. I read the change log. Looks like a lot of nice stuff but nothing that would really be enough to give up 17.1 and its stability. It already does about everything I want. If it could cure the occasional random freezes /reboots I would definitely switch but I am thinking that's not the rom nor kernel at fault.

So....... biding my time for now.

Kudos to just about the best, most dependable developer I have encountered yet. Awards to sbreen!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pfizzle:
I just had the same issue. I checked md5 on my computer and it was good, i copied it to my phone and when i went to flash, it failed immediately

update: actually even on my computer it gives me an error if i try to open the zip file
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blitz_7:
Mine also failed immediately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sambrooke:
Having same problem. Seems that zip cannot be opened. Tried on computer and phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chicagows:
failed flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
What happened to my toggles? I changed the color of the indicator line, restarted the phone, and they look messed up now. Indicator and text are missing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Obsidian_soul:
Same here two failed flashes file only downloads 1.75gb even though site says 1.8gb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scootier:
Ditto on flash failure ... restoring backup of 17.1 for now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Looks like a bad upload, will reupload for you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Vzwhater:
mine failed also :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 2crazeybolt:
Backups are running can't wait to get 18 setup. Thanks Scott once again for being the best Dev out there...

Link not working

404 not found

Can't find it!

Seems like that URL doesn't exist. Or at least we can't seem to find it. We've even looked under the seat cushions and zip, nada, nothing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pfizzle:
he's uploading another copy right now for us
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Links updated, enjoy. let me know if there are still problems as the rom definitely flashes :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Vzwhater:
Your the best Thank you :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxxtncxxx:
Here's an idea undo what u did...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gddbos:
Installer boots normally! Thanks for the quick fix!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aznjosh:
I was wondering why you removed the airplane mode toggle? I know lots of people, including myself, use it to reset our connections.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxxtncxxx:
Any1 want to create a torrent or something I will help seed when I get with my 50/50 box. AH download link is telling me no mirrors available. It worked 10min ago not now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] evilryry:
AFH having quick maintenance, showed a message at top screen for me. they said it should be back to normal soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pip77:
It's back up now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] adriel161:
New Update Lost Root

I just updated and I have lost root. How do I get it back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pfizzle:
did you flash supersu?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppersu812:
People. Always flash super user. Just so you make sure you don't lose root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] muzz3256:
Anyone tried the dirty flash? I don't feel like redoing my entire phone right now..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxxtncxxx:
Tnx [emoji106]

Don't bother updating then until u have time should never dirty flash unless told too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] adriel161:
Oh that worked thanks! I totally forgot.

By the way do you happen to know how to switch between calls? It never has let me using this rom. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aztheroth:
I have 17.1 on mdk... do I still need to flash su before flashing this one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
I will dirty flash when I get home in a bit, ain't got nothing to do tonight anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] evilryry:
Try flashing back to a stock rom like jrkruse nc5 or a nandroid backup of one if you have one. Then reflash HD. Not restore. That's what fixed my problem, I had the same thing going on except my GPS would never lock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xaZnxbOyx:
okay i'll give it a try, thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pip77:
I finished wiping and flashing the rom and modules. When I go to the app drawer I now have two sets of setting icons. The first one brings up a totally different looking settings layout. The second appears like the settings layout on the 17.1 build. Is this normal? Screenshots attached.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
Dirty Flash successful!!! I wiped only cache and dalvik and selected no full wipe in Aroma and the Safestrap Kernel. All user apps and data from 17.1 seems to be working just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aztheroth:
I noticed that too. Doesn't bother me at all anyway, It's too soon but so far is running good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
That's a great idea and I was looking for a way to do that before, but I don't know how within Hyperdrive's settings. I'm a bit of a HD newb. :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
5 downloads, all of them are dorked up. AFH seems to be up, but only delivers a 1.7gb file
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
That alone makes me not want v18 of this ROM. It's in my main 5 toggles and I use Airplane Mode everyday for work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] poboy975:
Why is it I can never, ever, no matter the version released, download the file on my phone. I mean I have never ever ever ever, successfully downloaded this into my phone. It starts, goes for about 10 second then fails every damn time. It's very frustrating. I can tether my phone to my tablet and download no problem... Grrr.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
I didn't remove the toggle, only the annoying message that asks if you want to toggle airplane mode every time

You will have 2 settings icons, one is for s5 settings and one is for the stock ones
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Read the changelog
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hollywood67:
Woke up to a nice surprise. .ota for hd!

But where are all the happy flashers comments?? Anyone [emoji12]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Cool. I'll try downloading v18 after work.

I searched this forum but couldn't find an answer: Is there no way to reset any color tweaks to default settings? I somehow lost the toggle indicator line and toggle text for no reason at all and there was absolutely no way of restoring them back to normal. I tried reflashing the ROM without wiping data, I tried fixing permissions and wiping the caches, I disabled every Xposed module, nothing worked. Clean installing fixed it but IMO is not a good fix. By that point I had all my apps installed and data restored. :mad:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
Rom is running smooth as butter for me.

Full wipe, clean install.

Great job Scott!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hollywood67:
DL now, so excited..... No more modules to flash? just rom and superSu:):)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Obsidian_soul:
Dirty flashed this morning, up and running smoothly [emoji41]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] avinash60:
Does opening the data usage tab or the advanced ipsec vpn tab within the settings crash the entire settings menu for anyone else? I have clean installed rls18 and get this problem. Everything else seems peachy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppersu812:
Man I downloaded this last night and woke up to not knowing it was a bad upload until I went back to read about it. Glad I do that to make sure everything is gonna go well. Take notes people. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShadyPossum:
whats the best way to restore apps/saved data after doing a clean wipe and flash to RLS 18? I dont mind having to wipe my phone to ensure 18 works correctly, but id rather not spend an hour getting all of my apps back and logged back in
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BizzLeonDaCouch:
use Titanium Backup Pro, back up apps+data, DO NOT BACK UP AND RESTORE SYSTEM DATA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pfizzle:
Up n running on 18! Pretty smooth so far, thanks for the rom!

I've an issue in my regular settings app..whenever I click the Data Usage tab, the settings app crashes. I'm in from a clean wipe and I've tried to re flash as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
OTA update link

My phone is getting a 404 not found when I try to download from the phone.

The link in the post is working perfectly.

Now if I just had more patience for the download to finish . . . ;)

Thanks for the great ROM! I was a bit nervous to root my phone and try something different even tho I used to do this all the time on a previous phone 3 years ago! This ROM is the reason why manufacturers should reach out to the community and incorporate these ideas in their stock images. Of course, that is after paying the ROM developer for his sacrificed time and efforts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Use Titanium Backup to create a "update.zip" file of all of your apps. Then flash it once you install the ROM. Note though, only to add USER apps, not system level. De-select everything and basically select everything in white text, nothing in red. And only include app only, not data. Including system apps or app data may screw up the ROM. Wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing. Afterwards, I go through Titanium Backup and pick and choose which apps I want data restored to. And if you're using Nova Launcher, you can restore that either through TiBU or within the app and all of your icons and widgets will be in their place, though widgets will have to be configured.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
I have tried to flash RLS18 3 times now. I had downloaded it on my phone and got errors. I'm not trying to download it on a pc; and it looks like the download is stuck at 1.7 GB. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] happy2472:
hey all just woke up .. cant really focus yet but im on rs 17.1 ... do i need to flash SU and the modules for wifi and data???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
Flashing RLS 18

My first flash, I lost safestrap, root and super su.

Those were easy to get back but I noticed no wifi so I'm flashing again and will flash the nc5 modules before I reboot.

I will let you all know if that step is needed still. Post #4 says it is not needed but wifi didn't work for me at all on Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
Jeez...how did you even get it downloaded. I'm having a heck of a time downloading it. 3 failed attempts on my phone...tried to flash twice to get errors...then I hopped on forum to see I wasn't the only one having an issue. Downloaded again on my phone...didn't finish. Got to work..downloaded on my computer...got stuck at 1.7 GB. On my seconds pc download attempt :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rdefino:
I just loaded rsl18 and when installing my Verizon app I get the error in the screen shot. Any thoughts?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
I got the same error code as well so you are not alone. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hollywood67:
Clean flash. Running smooth!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
That and having to flash the verizon nc5 module for wifi to work but not sure I would call that one an issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] happy2472:
Where did u get thw nc5 modules? I lost mine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Galaxy S4&folder=SS Modules
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
Yessir.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nu2droid:
I had to flash the module zip also to get the wifi to work.. no biggie I had the file still on my card..

Every thing running great so far.

I have two question though... how do we get rid of the "press and hold to add items... " message on the screens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
Move a widget through multiple screens.

I had that issue with 17.1 and it took forever to figure that one out. :)

That worked.. thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skeeter123:
Annoying Airplane Mode message!

Thanks for removing that annoying message!

And, of course, for this great ROM!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nu2droid:
Is there a way to change the clock color yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] colotl:
Same here and your right about everything else. Did a clean install 4 times. Same problem with either S5 or S4 settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] B_Morty:
Screen Off Animations and Youtube Screen Off Playback

AWESOME rom. Thank you so much, Scott! I love my gs4 again.

I am curious of where to find the screen off animations as well as how to get YouTube to play with the screen off. The last one, I read to look in advanced settings, but I can't find advanced settings to save my life.

Thank you for the help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spliffstar1904:
so im an idiot

im was on 17.1 saw that RLS18 was available and i got excited. i dl'd the rom and went throught the installation process. but as soon as the aroma installer was finished and without thinking i hit reboot. now i dont have root apparently... i went to the safestrap app and it said i didnt have root. so then i went to restart the phone to go into safestrap to flash the SU zip but it just boots straight to the phone as if no recovery exist. any advice?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
Get root via towelroot.com. Download and open the APK found there. Get Busybox from the Play Store and go into the app and 'install Busybox'. Download the Safestrap APK and 'install recovery' and you will be golden. You might as well get SuperSU from the Play Store also, then you won't need to flash the SuperSU zip at all. I keep all these APK's on my ExternalSD just in case. That will make this process a little easier if this happens again in the future.

I can't d/l RLS18 from any server. What do i do ???????????????????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spliffstar1904:
thanks gonna give it a try right now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scals37:
I see there are two apps for Settings in my app drawer, appears to be one for S4 and the other from S5. Anyway to remove one or the other? I also get FC when trying to open Data Usage from either of them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
I'm an idiot. I'm pretty sure this happened because I accidently unchecked the toggle text and toggle indicator checkboxes under Tweaks. -_-
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jscarano:
Anyone having issues with Xposed? I installed it but when I click on download it doesnt show anything in the list? thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
You have to download modules for there to be anything under 'modules'.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jscarano:
No I wrote that wrong. I cant download any new ones. Nothing shows up in the list. Im not a dummy with xposed I've used it numerous times so not sure whats going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
You are getting to Xposed via HyperDrive Tweaks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jscarano:
Yes I am
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:
PM me if you want a Google Drive link of Hyperdrive RLS 18.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XBlackChaosX:
The same thing happens to me. Also Avast mobile AV and mobile backup doesn't work, it force closes on me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] B_Morty:
I figured you have to change things in the build.prop I was looking for an option in tweaks. I still am at a loss with Youtube however...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jscarano:
I figured it out. I tried flashing another version of Playstore but it didnt flash right and I had no playstore installed. Fixed it by installing a good copy of Playstore apk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] psone:
The link that opens when I choose to update from the status bar to app for RL18 goes to a 404 page at android file host. FYI

Also anyone else having a problem downloading it? Downloads for a bit and then fails out. Never had a problem with them before
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
Click on the link in my signature and download it from your computer. The OTA link is broken since the file was re-uploaded this morning.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Did you restart after enabling Xposed framwork? Nothing showed up in my Downloads until I restarted the phone.

*edit* nevermind I saw your new post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
Just wondering....how big is the zip file? When downloading it says it is 1.8GB; but the download finished and my pc reads it being 1.76 GB. Did I get another incomplete file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Charlie115:
Does anyone know how to fix the press and hold to put stuff on your home pages that don't go away it drives me nuts!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:
Same size as me and I did a md5 check. You should do a md5 check just in case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
What do you mean? I haven't flashed it yet. It is only downloaded.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:
My Download is 1.76 Gb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattie_49:
Fantastic build Scott.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sep33:
Thank you Scott. I have been playing with this since last night and it is so smooth. You da man. I have not had any issues. I am on MDK build for Verizon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jraider44:
Mine as well... Haven't flashed it yet, but MD5 checks out. Will test tonight
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yousifmessi:
tried few downloads and it still says 1.76gb instead of 1.8 md5 is the same. should i flash or will it not work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:
I would flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
For those having issue of "Downloads" not showing up once Xposed installer is active and rebooted. Try the following, worked for me:

Under ALL APPS in Settings:

Google Play Store (Clear Cache)

Xposed Installer (Clear Cache)

This brought them back for me. Good luck! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wwonka69:
Just dirty flashed Over 17.1 and it seems like everything is working. I do have 2 different settings.

I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for another great build.
