Well u didn't have to reflash...

But when u reflash a clean install is best..

Now for the date...if want date in ur status bar u will lose it on ur lock screen and pulldown..

Its a little bug..that is why it will come back then disappear.. Set date to hidden in tweaks for status bar and it will stay in ur pulldown etc

Once install nova..uncheck transparent in nova settings ..see if it sticks then

For settings in hyper tweaks...check and uncheck things..if u want it check after u do this...if u don't then leave unchecked

Has anyone used the HypeRed or HyperWhite custom themes when they flashed?

If so, can you post screen pics? I'm interested in knowing how the themes look. Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cobra7361:
Best themes IMO are cobalt...and Bobcat..

I also use unicon and cobalt theme pack and theme everything..

Thousands of icons in cobalt icon pack..

Unicon v1.7 is a awesome app...themes icons system wide...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
Where are you getting the themes...and are you flashing them?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShnikeJSB:
I can't seem to get SafeStrap installed now, either. It keeps saying I'm not rooted, even though I AM...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] siverson:
Just an update to last message... 100% resolved and thanks a million JoshM.1219 for the help. New SIM was the answer. Now with R18 and KT kernel, everything is perfectly smooth with no random reboots or stupid stuff.

One other thing of note that I remembered. I was on a call a couple weeks ago, around the time that I lost 4G and the call dropped. I thought other person had hung up and then saw a message on my phone about SIM being removed. I power cycled and removed/reinserted the SIM and it was fine since, but first time that had ever happened. Just odd how it all happened around the same time that I decided to factory wipe it and then fresh 17.1 install. Who knows, my random reboots and such could have all been due to bad SIM.

Anyhow, thanks again and hope this helps others.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
You should have flashed SuperSu after the ROM was installed and THEN reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShnikeJSB:
I did this, believe me. I ended up having to uninstall TowelRoot, SU, SELinux and SafeStrap. I then reinstalled them in that order (TR rooting first, SU install and reboot, SELinux set to permissive, then reinstall SafeStrap). It then worked fine. Not sure why I had to redo all those apps in that order specifically to get SS to work properly, but it's fine now.

Still looking for a fix to the Delayed Texting setting.

problem short msg service in EUROPE

First of all thank you for this great rom! Its excellent!

I do however have some issues with sending short messages and wanted to ask if somebody else has the same problem.

I am using the hyperdrive rls 18 tom on a Verizon Galaxy S4 with a national provider in Europe. While I can send short messages within the country, I am not able to send a short msg outside the country when I need to dial the country code (0049, 0044, etc.) in front. Hence, I can only send msg while being in the country of my national provider and only to devices within the country.

In European phones, one usually can change the "short message service centre number". This is done by clicking the settings option in the short msg app.

I was not able to find this and was wondering if somebody else had similar issues and may found a way to solve it.

Thank you guys!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
Did you choose the kernel when flashing the ROM that is for us NC5/Safestrap users?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cobra7361:
Theme section....and yes u have to flash in recovery..

Both bobcat and cobalt..

---------- Post added at 08:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 PM ----------

Use root checker app..

Also do u have selinux permission changer app installed and set to permissive?

If not u need to have that for safestrap

Tethering with RLS18

Installed RLS 18 on Verizon SCH I545. Smooth as silk. Nice that the WiFi fix is included.

I'm not having any luck getting WiFi tethering too work. I see an app called Tethering and Portable Hotspot. It's easily configured. My devices can see it. They connect to the phone. But there is no Internet access.

Seems to be that under 17.1 there was a tethering bit in Settings. Perhaps it's still there and I'm not seeing it.

Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Glad to hear, thanks for the update :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] linuxpir8:
I have a vzw s4 and just switched carriers back to tmobile. My vzw is using safestrap so since this is available for multicarrier when i flash this rom again cam i choose tmobile instead of vzw or will that brick my device. On my previous phones it didnt matter as long as you changed apn and the rom didnt flash carrier specific modems. But this is my first with safestrap stuck bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] steveperrry:
hour off

Is anyone else's time an hour off on their phone? my phone is showing an hour faster than it should everywhere the time is displayed. I'm trying to figure out of this is ROM related or Verizon related. I made sure use network supplied time is checked.

************

Rebooted and now the time is correct. Weird
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] therobzilla:
I am having problems with Verizon Voice mail working, I Odin back to stock than clean flashed, and when I activate VVM it FC contacts and the dialer.

I'm on a MDK bootloader, with TWRP, and using MK2 radio, anyone have any suggestions?

Really need this app for work?

If I re flash without VVM in Aroma everything works fine.

Thanks in advance!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peekywhop2:
ok so after 3 installs, 2 of which i wiped data! There is still a huge problem with the battery that i never had before with any of your releases so i will def be going back to 17.1... It never fails with this rom update of 18 that every time the battery gets around 40% or below the phone will just cut right off, no battery low indicator or anything like that so the battery still has power. And i cant power it back on until i plug it in and it will have 0% battery life left. This is not a user error as i have installed this rom 3 times now! wiped data and factory reset the phone. Hope you can fix this as im not the only one experiencing this problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
this actually sounds like a calibration issue. get settled on a rom, charge it to 100% and use some calibrator (hyperdrive built-in one seems pretty good)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Haven't had anymore reboots yet but I still feel like I might. I also still seem to have problems with wifi staying connected. It will reconnect every 30-60 minutes or after leaving the device idle for a long period of time and turning on the screen and I'll see the toast message telling me I'm connected to my wifi. It gets annoying when I'm trying to surf the web or watch a video and my wifi suddenly disconnects and reconnects. My wifi is set to always stay connected on my phone settings and I set the wifi band to 2.4ghz after every reboot (same thing happens when set to auto). What could be the problem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peekywhop2:
i have done that also but i will try it this one time once more and will report back what happens. Its really killing me to have 40 percent an phone die on me lol cant do **** lol. i even have greenfy, betterbatterystats and wake lock installed.. this has to be a bug if that doesnt fix it this time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
Scott, I had to flash modules seperately. Didnt work out of the box, i selected safestrap option in aroma. didnt work at all. luckily i could flash modules afterward.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShnikeJSB:
Yep. It's all good now, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CyberpodS2:
I had the same exact problem. There are a bunch of posts regarding VVM causing some problems. My solution was to use youmail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mgraham80823:
I am having the same issue Opening settings gives me two options, one on the left is a s4 GUI, setting option on the right gives me an s5 GUI. I have opened data usage in both options and it crashes settings no matter what. this is a BUG and though I'm greatful for all the hyperdrive releases, I really do think there needs to be some investigation as to a work around or something that can clear this up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] avinash60:
For some reason skype does not play well with the ROM. I was trying to call someone today and all they could hear from my side was chipmunk like high pitched voice with screeching. Anyone else having similar issues? I am using a clean install of Rls18..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dancrosoft:
I cannot seem to get safety assistance to work on this rom. Does anyone know if this is a known issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
Anyone else's phone charge pretty slow with this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] anewday:
Does RLS18 require a specific version of TWRP? I haven't updated since last October.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
I would use kt's version of twrp. Let me see if I can find the link.

Go to your dialer/ call settings and turn off noise reduction.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
Yes, same here. Depends which kernel you chose, I chose talexope or what ever It's called stockish.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
Yeah I chose stockish. Does charge pretty dang slow though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DFA1:
Same thing just happened when rooting my gf's new Galaxy S4, Wifi and Hotspot would not work, luckily I had the old gogolies wififix and flashed that and that did the job.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eheinzeiii:
Any idea on how the kids mode installer works that's included with this rom. I got to a point where it says it's going to download but it gives me an... cannot connect to server error
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] danveB:
Guys, how is it that every time i reboot the device, the message "android is upgrading" appears? Btw i have installed RLS18. Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ecera:
That's normal for this rom. Part of the tweaks made to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lokerman:
tweaks that counts apps at each reboot

Thank you for saying so! I am about to install this ROM and am very familiar with the HperDrive ROM from using it for the past year almost exclusively. If I saw that happening without having read this post, I would have been having anxiety attacks at least for a while until I figured that nothing was wrong. Much appreciated! That's very useful into, maybe it should be posted in the OP near the part of the screen that gets the most eyeball traffic. Just a thought.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sypherz28:
had a freeze up today. in fact ive had these random freeze ups since RLS 16. I was in messenger and hit the camera button instead of the image button. camera popped up at the bottom. I hit back, camera went away, and the phone froze. The backlight on the buttons would light up and beep when I pressed them but nothing on screen. holding home did nothing. after a moment I pressed the power button to lock and unlock but the phone hot rebooted instead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BaltTigger:
Love the Hyperdrive series. Much thanks. Only having one issue....when the phone reboots, it is taking a couple minutes to find a phone signal again. It finds wifi immediately after reboot and bluetooth a few seconds later, but it is taking upwards of 2 minutes to find the phone/data signal from VZW. I have cleared the App Manager cache for phone as well as cleared the dalvik and main cache in recovery.

Suggestions??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Randomlord:
If nothing else, I thought it seemed to charge faster than before but I was only running RLS 17.1 for about a week before RLS18 was released.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thefederer:
My phone has been running great for months with great battery life (im on rls 11.1). Thanks sbreen. However, my phone has now given me the message "incompatible charger, charging has been disabled to protect your device. Please use original charger" whenever I plug in to charge. I am using the original charger. I managed to get it to charge by removing the sim card before plugging it in, but obviously this solution is less than ideal. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Thank you for your help

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] binqker:
How did you get the toggle background to transparent?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rae2u_112:
I am holding off on installing Nova for a bit; so I thought I would play around with the provided theme chooser that came with Hyperdrive.

I am currently using the Chinese Classic theme. Does anyone know how or where I can access the wallpapers that are included in the theme? I would like to use them for customizing the notification and messaging screens. I have search online with no success. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
I've never ran Hyperdrive until yesterday with RLS 18. This charges far slower than the stock ROM and along with two other ROMs I've tried.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
The slow charge is good for the battery life. It also will result in a more full charge. Maybe since Samsung had the battery problem they backed down on the charge current.

If you don't like it flash ktoonzes kernel, that will provide you with fast charge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
I have noticed battery life is improved over the other ROMs I had tried. Just never ran into such a slow charge. I know it's AC charging, but almost feels like USB charging. It will soon be forgotten if this battery life keeps up though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Looks like the Wanam Xposed module. By far the best xposed module for this phone. Mine is very similar minus the transparency. Toggle color is same color code as AOSP toggles.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] egore93:
Did you log into Samsung? Not sure if it will work. I've heard you have to log into Samsung for some apps to work.

I've encountered a couple of issues.

When I hit phone 'contacts.apk' closes and I can't dial. - cleared data and cache. Same thing..

Two settings icons. The S5 setting doesn't work period.

I flashed from 17.1 thought that was the problem and have done two clean flashes since. Same issues. Any help?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] danveB:
How can i get my toggles and the power menu to look just like the s5? Tweak colors probably?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hashbang173:

I just tweaked my wifi color and signal colors but i want to go back to stock, which color is it? Sorry, im new to hyperdrive series.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
I've asked the same thing and got no answer. For some odd reason, there isn't a "restore to default" feature on any of the Tweaks, not just but especially the colors. They were white weren't they?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] danveB:
Yeah, they were white... Its kind of odd lol. I tried changing back colors from white to black, but no luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
Anyone else having trouble with settings being changed?

One example, and a damn annoying one, is that my default keyboard keeps switching back to Samsung keyboard when I want it to stay to Swiftkey.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] evilryry:
I'm not having that problem, I also use Swiftkey. Try going into language and input settings, check the default one and disable what you don't want. Or have you already tried that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] evilryry:
Should be all white, move the sliders till you get white, if not try just experimenting bro, nothings permanent there so it won't hurt to play around
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
First thing I did. Keep reverting back even when I don't restart the phone. And yes I've tried restarting the phone after I set Swiftkey as default again.

I just reinstalled Swiftkey and set it as default. I'll see if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
Same here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
I gave up with the keyboard reverting back. I just froze the Samsung keyboard with Titanium Backup.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
Are using any themes? Xposed modules? Is it happening with completely stock Hyperdrive?

uTorrent Remote

Hello all, it seems I have the most random issue. For some reason just on this ROM, whenever I try to run utorrent remote, it force closes. It's an issue that is only happening on Hyperdrive. Tried doing a search, but I haven't found a solution. Thanks in advance for the advice!

My battery life has almost doubled since installing 18!

MDK, Koontz kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vaeevictiss:
so i just got 18 installed, and im finding one bug. I always run Cobalt theme, but i save a copy of the samsung keyboard because i cant stand the one the comes with cobalt. I then simply flash cobalt, and copy the keyboard app back into the apps folder. Ive done this as long as i could remember.

However, with 18, if i try to do this is freezes and crashes any root explorer ive tried to use and ive tried 3 so far.

Any idea whats causing that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dezymond:
Having trouble with the hyperdrive tweak app. I switched the cpu setting to "powersave" but upon reboot it goes back to on-demand.

Also the package installer tab under "persitance" option it always goes back to "on" when I want it off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] avinash60:
You could always check the charging current:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free&hl=en

That way you know if it is charging at the usual 1.9/1.2A or the USB 0.5A.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DFA1:
For the life of me I can't figure out how to switch phone calls... For instance when I'm talking to one person and another person calls me, I can answer the other person which puts the first on hold, but then I can't figure out how to end that call and go back to taking to the original person.

I've tried hitting the little Burton in the middle right with the lines but that anyways causes Android phone to force close. Can anyone tell me how to switch between calls?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
Try this, it works for me.

When you get a second call and accept it, when you end the call just wait. Your phone will ring, answer it and you will be connected to your original call.

I haven't figured out how to switch back and forth between calls but I'm working on it :D

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------

Wow, after figuring out how to end a call and pick up the original...

Switching between two calls became to obvious!

You just push the "Swap" button on the keypad. LOL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DFA1:
Okay, I'll try looking for that next time. So then what is that little button in the middle right with the 3 lines suppose to do? Why does it force close?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
That little icon is because (if I remember right) this phone was ported from the Note 3.

It's been said before, "don't push it" :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlpineMan:
I was on RLS17.1. Tried RLS18 today. For some reason, phone won't boot after the Safestrap splash screen. I just get a black screen. Checked MD5 hash and it matches. Tried multiple times flashing. Tried clean flash. Tried dirty flash.

Here are the flashing steps I took:

1) Boot to Safestrap

2) Wipe cache, dalvik, data (also tried system on a few occasions)

3) Flash RLS18 (chose the last option in kernel choices - stock kernel)

4) Flash supersu

5) Flash gogolies wifi fix module

6) Flash NC5 module

7) Reboot

Every single time, it just blacks out after the Safestrap splash screen.

If I follow the steps above to reflash RLS17.1 instead, it works fine.

What am I missing? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vzwnexus:
I must be doing something wrong. I have GPS off, no bluetooth running and am usually on 4G LTE all of the time but I usually get 4 hrs max on a full charge when it drains to 1-2%.. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
If this is the wifi fix you flashed https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23487008491963696 then you don't need to flash the NC5 modem also. I did everything you did but used the above mentioned wifi fix and did not flash the extra NC5 modules that you did and I had no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlpineMan:
Yup, that's the one I've been using since RLS 17.1. Even if I don't flash the extra NC5 module, it still fails to boot.

Perhaps one or more of the options I'm choosing in Aroma is what's causing the thing not to boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
SM-N900V? I take it you are on someone else's phone and NOT trying to flash on a Note 3?

---------- Post added at 12:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

You are flashing into the 'stock' partition on Safestrap?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vzwnexus:
has anyone gotten the samsung multiple widgets to work with rls18? it worked fine on 17.1 for me..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlpineMan:
I'm not flashing my Verizon Note 3. I'm flashing a Verizon S4.

Yes, I'm flashing on stock ROM slot.

The thing that puzzles me is that if I repeat the same exact steps, except to flash RLS 17.1, it works fine. I've also just tried accepting all default selections in Aroma except for the last part... On the kernel choice. I chose stock kernel for safestrap. Still won't boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
And you are on NC5?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlpineMan:
Yes. I ODIN'd stock NC5 before flashing to RLS 17.1. Been using RLS 17.1 successfully. Today was my first attempts to flash RLS 18.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShnikeJSB:
The issue stems from having Verizon VVM installed, and I've had the problem since RLS17 as well. I just use DialApp in the Play Store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
I knew I would have another random reboot. Was using the XDA Premium 4 app while browsing this thread and it suddenly goes black and goes to my splash screen... This happened very frequently on RLS 17.1 but this is the second time for RLS 18 for me. Still having issues with Wifi staying connected (it reconnects and shows the toast message every half hour or so or after being idle for a long period of time and turning on the screen) although I'm unsure if it's just that my phone doesn't cooperate very well with my router.

First of all I flash this the same way every time. On TWRP I wipe these twice/three times:

[X] System

[X} Data

[X] Cache

[X] Dalvik Cache

Then I do a factory reset just in case. Then I install the ROM and choose my settings.

I'm also using the Stockish kernel (I've mentioned in a previous post), I'm using the NC5 modules (MDK Base, hence TWRP) for better connectivity and stability, and I still have somewhat noticeable battery drain. I've charged it to 100% and did the battery calibration and let it die and recharged it and it still drains quickly when in light use and using wifi. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
