Trying to install RLS15 on tmobile SS, flash rom then compatibility pack for tmobile, the phone boot normally but when I'm at beginning of the phone set up, i can't go next step. Flashed this two days before and didn't have that issue but have some bugs so decided delete rom slot and start everything again, any help. Thanks

hi all..

So Ive been running this rom for along time now. still running build rls14, feb build , So I now need to send my phone back for a insurance replacement. I used the safestrap method to install the rom. I need to unroot and factory reset the phone. Do i have to worry about flash counter? I have never unlocked the bootloader and the triangle away just errors out :) what would be the best method to remove everything from the phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Your best bet would be to use the full wipe mk2 Odin file.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thuddome:
Or you could just set it on your driveway and run over it... I mean, you are claiming on insurance. Just sayin...:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mike:
Or you could just flash a stock based ROM, reset flash counter (need to be on a stock based rom) and flash the Odin package. No need to destroy the device. Fraud is not an acceptable means of going about the situation, especially when it can easily be avoided and still achieve the same end result.

Let's not clutter the thread either. Everyone is anticipating a new release, but these talks are of no use to the dev

Scott said he's now working exclusively on his s4 ROMs a couple days ago, so it shouldn't be too long. As a future warning, it's considered impolite to ask for an eta on this stuff so don't be surprised if you get flamed a little.

Just checked his Twitter, said he's going HAM on the s4 a few hours ago lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] escenkay012:
I loved everything about RLS15 in terms of stability and options. One thing that bothered me was the gps issue that I and maybe a few other users encountered.

Really hope this will be ironed out. Other than I want to praise Scott on his continuous hard work to make our phones still feel new~~~

Here's to you Scott~~

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RepublicanDaddy:
I think that was my issue too. I installed a bunch of apps about two weeks ago (mostly games) and the random reboots began. I still don't know which app was the problem, but I wasn't using any of those I installed. So far all is well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chetqwerty:
I'm having an odd problem with my wifi connection over the past couple weeks. The longer the time between reboots the worse the speed gets. Toggling wifi on off, switching to airplane then back doesn't help. Noticed in three different browsers and play store. A reboot fixes the problem and good for another stretch of days. Running MDK modem on MDK, ktoonsz kernal, rls15.Anyone experiencing anything like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scubbi:
Have you tried greenify donation version? It keeps my phone fresh running smooth so I dont bother with the reboots and wipping. If you didnt have to wipe, would you?[emoji12]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trud9340:
Anyone have issues maintaining wifi connection to an ac dual band router? My laptop has no issues but my phone (running rls15) constantly drops wifi and is sometimes accompanied by the "connection unstable" message. If I toggle wifi on and off, it comes back, but not for long. I don't have this issue on my laptop and I also don't have the issue on the single band router at work. I tried disabling one of the bands on the router (so it should technically be acting like a single band) but it doesn't help.

Yep, I had this problem too. I kept having "Connection Unstable" messages. I flashed Baja Rom (not because of the wifi weirdness, just for the sake of variety) but I still got the message.

I even switched my router and I still got these messages. Very strange. Seems relatively harmless, but its kinda annoying.

Just waiting on that RLS16! Baja is OK, but nothing beats HD on the S4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] D4oidz3r:
I had this issue with RLS11 to RLS15. Finally solved it by updating the firmware on my router. Have you checked for firmware updates for your router? If you have an old router that no longer receives updates, I would suggest you buy a new one. There is always new technology pumping out and firmware constantly needs to be updated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trud9340:
To me, it's way more than "kinda annoying". My cell service is terrible at my house so not having dependable Internet is super frustrating. I'm hoping that a 4.4 rom will fix things?

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

I have tried, but there haven't been any updates for my router (Buffalo air station). Guess I'll just deal with it until I try a new rom and hope it fixes itself before I go out and buy another router.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbyt23:
The same thing was happening to me. I went into the wifi settings on my phone and turned off the auto network switch and it immediately stopped.

I hope this isn't too off-topic but have some questions about the modem issue:

I am on I545VRUEMK2

Just wondering about the benefits of upgrading to NC2 or NC5 and/or should I do it? This is one thing I just haven't had time to research (and I apologize for this, please don't send me a LMGTFY link). I have had zero probs using RLS15 in general but if there is anything that can improve things I of course want it!

Anything helpful/links are awesome.

btw, can't help it - i'm also awaiting revelation, hopefully sooner than later (though i doubt some others feel the same as i do!):D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] metaphz:
I tried it for a day in preparation for 16. I couldn't stand using stock for a whole day that by that evening i downgraded and put 15 back on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkoyskip:
As many mobiles I've worked on I still don't understand the difference between modems & kernels or such. Again, should I update my modem? I thought this is different than the firmware or such. I thought the modem (actual radio) update is a different firmware update. And that the mobile upgrade is also different? Am I misunderstanding something?

Just so wer're on the same page so to speak: what's the difference between flashing a modem upgrade & a full phone upgrade? (I'm not trying to go from mk2 to another, so is the modem thing similar?)

I'm used to flashing the ROM and/or OS & go on from there, just don't understand the modem upgrade/downgrade thing.

Only trying to get this figured out, and thanks.

EDIT: browsed the links for the modems and still don't understand - I suppose the NC2-5 modems are from the newer phones such as I have (GS4) and ported? If this is the case I still don't understand the why? Better firmware or such? Better something?

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] metaphz:
Modem is independent of firmware and kernel. You can flash the NC5 modem which is the latest on MK2 firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sypherz28:
think of the modem as nothing more than the software that controls the antennas (3g, 4g, etc). In most cases you don't have to ever do these unless there is a problem or if there is some cool additional function added to the latest version you want to take advantage of. I just updated from MDK to the latest NC5 and it is working just fine. So if you like feel free to update and appease your mind that you are on the latest and greatest. Be sure that you do ONLY the modem and not the full package download from surge. Follow his directions!!!

I noticed there is no knowledgebase thread for the s4. I'm somewhat technically inclined, but I bought this phone when it released. Rooted it, installed a recovery and haven't looked back. So now, I don't know what MDK, NC5, NC2, MJK2 none of that. Is there a central location of all this information or do I just need to scope out other people asking the same questions, and look for the answers.

also undervolt and other options (screen off profile, governors, governor settings, swipe to wake, fast charge, etc. with the KTweaker app). you can save your settings and reuse them when you update your ROM or flash a new one.

i use his recommended settings, w/ slightly lower voltages.

There's really no need to flash a new modem unless you're having problems with reception or there's a new technology out, but you can flash all you want to see.
