I for some odd reason, can't get 16.1 to install. It starts running the aroma, goes through the install process then my screen blacks out and takes me back to main safestrap recovery page. I've tried getting it to work on a fresh install and on a dirty flash and neither take. When I try to reflash it again in recovery, it freezes and I have to do a battery pull. Even on the fresh install it shows I'm on rls 16 not 16.1. Not sure if its just a bad download since I have downloaded it twice now. Any ideas why it won't let me install it?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RJV3:
Ok something definitely is very wrong about this scenario and I am breaking my head trying to figure out what exactly is the problem .

so with RLS 16 or 16.1 on MDK bootloader and using twrp 2.7.0.1 stock kernel, my bluetooth does not turn on like many other MDK users reported.

I figured for the sake of things, I tried Jkruse's stock 4.4.2 rom.

again I cant turn on my bluetooth? WTF????

Went back to RLS 15......my bluetooth turns on ok?

Can someone with developer experience help me troubleshoot. This no bluetooth things does not make sense.

Alright, I started all over and now I have root back. I just did a no-wipe installation instead of a full wipe then flashed supersu afterwards as well as the NC5 modules.

I'm using the Galaxy S5 launcher/theme. I absolutely love it; however the only thing that bothers me is the text in the middle of the screen, "Press and hold screen to add items." It stays on top of all my widgets. Is there a way to remove that? Thanks The North Butt for your help.

[MENTION=4600715]sbreen94[/MENTION] Sorry to bother you man, but I've been reading through the thread since the release of RLS16 and wanted to run something by you. Would it be safe to assume that TWRP is to blame for the Bluetooth issues? Seems like the folks that have/had this problem are the ones that first flashed with TWRP. Would flashing this ROM with PhilZ Touch CWM be a better route?

TWRP isn't causing the bluetooth issue, IMO. I used TWRP and my bluetooth and WiFi are working fine. It almost has to be an issue with the options people are picking in Aroma, or a modem issue. Unless maybe there are different hardware versions?

Yes, KitKat battery has taken a tumble

Regarding the battery drain, note that I've had this since upgrading to KitKat roms period. Surge's, Echo Rom, and now HD so it is not this ROM. What you will likely notice is Android OS and System are now taking nearly 1/4 of your battery usage sometimes even exceeding screen time. I've tried BBS & Wakelock detector and nothing is standing out any different than before. I use Greenify, still doesn't solve. CPU Spy shows a high percentage of deep sleep also so that in itself doesn't seem to be of issue.

There is something with 4.4.2 that is causing this OR with google updates as has been brought up in other threads in relation. I was hoping HD was going to be magically different somehow in this regard but I'm afraid the proof is in now beings this is the 3rd KitKat rom all doing the same.

Example, I used to be able to leave the phone off the charge at night say with a 60 or 70 percent charge left from a day's usage and it only dropped to 50 or 60%. Now, am I not only lucky to have 60 or 70 percent still left by the end of the day, if I screw up and do this, my phone is nearly dead come morning.

It's very frustrating but again, not fault of this ROM. So far it is on ALL KitKat 4.4.2 variations out.

I didn't have the battery drain on Echoe Rom, but did the first time I flashed 16. A dirty flash of 16 solved it for me, incredible life now. A dirty flash of 16.1 over that and I'm still doing fine.

I did have locations turned off for a while which reversed the Google services usage, they're back on now so I'll know if that was my issue. Funny thing is, over night, plugged in, Google search used the most of my battery, different but still concerning. A little more investigating is still needed before I can say I'm cured. Leaving locations off isn't really an option for me...

Not having any issues at all either. I even leave GPS and data on all the time and I lose only 10-20% overnight.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Actually I've kept ALL location services off during this troubleshooting.

Just did some "Google'ing" and found some posts pointing to the camera services, others to Google +, and others to Skype.

I've frozen Google + and Skype on a full charge now so we shall see.

Funny thing is, neither of those show up in BBS or Wakelock detector as offenders but something is causing Android OS and Android System to be extremely high drainage in comparison to JB/Roms. And it is showing in real life battery performance as I used to get 2+ days with my usage and I'm down to 12hr.s to 1 day max.

My battery life is 1/2 what it used to be prior to 4.4.2 upgrade.
