I've noticed many people having GPS problems. Is there anyone who has NOT been affected by this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Try unchecking force gpu rendering :)

Yes many people have not been including myself :)

Just remember with TiBu that you are setting a filter. So after you search, that filter is still set. You will have to touch back up there and delete what you have typed in to get your full listing back. Took me a while the first time I dove into TiBu...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AdamIsYou:
I'll give it a go and report back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbel25nyy:
Make sure you make a backup first so you have a working GPS to restore to if need be.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazykevin76:
Zero Gps issues here as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xrabbitfootx:
I lost gps because I flashed black-it-all-out . Once I reverted back to RLS5's stock /system files it was fine. This doesn't appear to be the norm, though, so the dice are for you to roll :)

Naturally ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbel25nyy:
Haha, I see you're no noob:p

I just wanted to make sure you had a backup, because a lot of people who lost the GPS can't even get it after flashing over the ROM or restoring with Odin
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AdamIsYou:
Thanks though! Glad to see we're watching out for eachother

Rom for GS4 sprint

can i flash this ROM on my Galaxy S4 Sprint version? i looked around did not find anything. on the post shows Verizon. nothing about other carrier?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AdamIsYou:
Unfortunately I am among those with GPS problems. This looks like a killer ROM, so I'll keep an eye on the thread in the future when its resolved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alphanu22:
im having great battery life with RLS5, maybe casue turned off my GPS idk but its legit tho-
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazykevin76:
Just was gonna post this same thing. Compared to other releases, my battery life is horrible. I waited for the duration of the day to see if it got any better, but it didn't. I know people say it takes a while for a rom to settle in, but not like this. It is nothing compared to 3 or 4. Speed is awesome, gps works for me, but battery is not good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alphanu22:
every phone is different my friend, you never know, you might have a wake lock or an app thats running in the background nommin on ur battery-

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spike96:
Patiently awaiting the recompiled RLS5!

Other than the GPS, RLS5 is incredible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mailvishal07:
Yep, GPS issues here also. I am gonna do it dirty and try again lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] twiz0r:
Really? It won't fix it. Bug in the release people have mentioned just once or twice
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mailvishal07:
Yeah, I was just trying it out. Also, Hangout crashes for me also. I read someone else having the same issue. Going to CleanROM until a fix. Thanks for everyones hard work in keeping this thread alive and the dev for keeping this ROM flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] android-incredible:
GPS work now

This is what i did,set up my wifi,turn on airplane mode,go to navigation and typed the destination the gps not lock,unselect airplane mode,and the gps lock...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] raziel36:
Small bug, but screen rotation makes the status bar go Black, instead of transparent. It goes back, after opening and closing the settings or after the screen goes off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbel25nyy:
And then unlocks within seconds...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Alright i think i know what might be causing the issues with GPS for you guys, I'll upload a test build soon :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
Tell us what it might be oh wise one. But don't say user error >_<
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Of course it was user error :P hahahaha :laugh: What i think it is was the code for the Advanced Power menu. i changed a few things before release. I don't know for sure. But this is my guess. This also makes sense with people getting gps after toggling things from the Power menu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
Haha awesome - is it something you can fix ota?

Edit: nvm saw the part where you were going to upload a test build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mailvishal07:
Not rushing or anything but just wondering it soon meant tonight or tomorrow. I have early class tomorrow so just checking if its worth staying up and refreshing this thread every 2 mins. lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lahma69:
I cannot get debugging working on this rom. I have enabled adb/debugging, and the phone appears to connect to adb fine, but when I try to launch an android app through eclipse, it acts like its launching it, but never does anything. My log just says "-1 Device Disconnected." When I flash back to stock, it immediately starts working again. Looks like this rom is off that table as an option for now... Anyone else having these issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jettadieselguy:
I am getting messages through facebook (not messenger), but no notifications otherwise. Oh well not that important right now.

Hyperdrive RLS5 powered GS4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpmcnown:
Not a developer, but would what you believe to be the problem be something that could stay resident on the internal SD, carrying the problem between roms after clean flashes? I'm back up and running with functional GPS on RLS4, But this is only after returning to stock via ODIN, wiping the internal SD, and re-rooting all over again, THEN restoring my RLS4 backup. Whew.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the sandman89:
For people getting no notifications for facebook and messenger I have had that problem with all the roms that I tried and what fixed it for me every time was clearing the data for both apps and signing in again. Worked for me every time but someone reported that it didn't work for him.. Worth a try for others that are having the same issue.. On a side note this rom is flawless besides the soon to be fixed gps problem

No force closes for me. Did you dirty flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KennyG123:
THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Everything on XDA should be considered beta or experimental and FREE. If you rely that heavily on your phone I suggest you remain stock.

You paid a lot of money for your phone and the included Samsung software. You have a right to complain to Samsung if something doesn't work.

Thank you for your cooperation

Friendly Neighborhood Moderator
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:
Then you should probably just build your own ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SolemnSinner:
Please, for the love of god people, quit complaining. Read through the thread. There are various methods posted that have worked for people who have had GPS issues. Try them. If they don't work, then wait for the fix. Please don't soil the thread with whining. It's counterproductive and Sbreen has a gem here that we want him to keep improving. Let the man freaking breathe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TJeezey:
Boo hoo. I don't understand people who complain so much about FREE software. This should cost money but it doesn't. Quit the bashing. Yeah it's got a hiccup right now for some people (myself included) but I'm not going to post about how entitled I am for a perfect Rom. Again it's FREE. If you're so worried about your GPS than go back to stock, flash another rom (you're not forced to use this one) or use a freakin map.

Sbreen, keep up the good work. Hopefully this will get fixed soon and the world can go back to normal. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] le0.br4zuc4:
I am also wondering about this ^^^
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SolemnSinner:
I have a noob question even though I'm not completely green when it comes to flashing ROMS. I was wondering what the significance was of the portion of the rom flashing sequence where we're supposed to let the phone sit for 10-20 minutes. What does that do? Just curious.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SolemnSinner:
I was actually able to just wipe and install RLS4 and got a GPS lock. Wow. These phones are all over the place with their quirkiness.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfgrrl:
So if one were to wipe 3x, wipe system, dalvik, cache AND internal SD, and flash RLS4, would this work? Also, would I be able to restore my TiBu backup after this?

I've no experience with wiping internal sd. Thanks in advance for the assistance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Saear:
This Rom is amazing. My previous phone the Galaxy S2 (sprint) took roughly a year from release before we started seeing roms of this quality.

Don't mind all the complainers, keep up the great work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
Honestly don't think so. I did all you mentioned except wipe internal SD that way. No dice when I reloaded the ROM. I had to Odin back to stock, even then I could not get GPS on stock ROM. So I copied all data from internal SD to ext SD, then booted phone to stock recovery and did the factory restore there. It then brought the phone back to day 1 status. I opened Maps and it locked in secs. I rerooted again using Motochopper and installed a diff ROM until this is ironed out. Not going through that again.

I have had Droids and been doing this for a long time and NEVER had to go to that extreme to get going again. Didn't lose any data, just time consuming.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
I dont kno why people still reporting they having gps issues when tons of people r having the same issues. Things like this would piss me off as a developer. So be patient sbreen is working on this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] durag5:
Unchecking force GPU did not fix the Hulu+ black bar issue =(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mbjr:
Because it helps to know if its an isolated issue or wide spread. That being said I can temp fix by starting gps program, copilot, long press power, turn on airplane mode, then turn it off...instant lock ever time, does not stick though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NickSaul:
Any plans to remove the safe volume warning/auto volume changing feature?

That "feature" is really annoying. I plug my phone into my car's AUX every time I drive (2-3 times a day), and I like the phone volume all the way up for the best sound.

I'm sure some people like the feature, so maybe leave it as an option in the settings?

Thanks, and keep up the great work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Aroma and probably multicarrier will be found in RLS6. I'm hoping to get a 5.1 or 5.5 of sorts out for test today :)

Thank you all for your patience!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] VECTUS:
Sorry op had to come in and clean up a bit. Everyone please read and follow the rules. IE watch the language and complaining. Take complaints to Verizon or Samsung. Because if you are not supplying a fix or log cat of the issue you are wasting this developers time. People need to read the links in my signature. They are very enlightening. Also report problem posters. Don't quote them or just ignore their silliness.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
Got one of my other S4 to produce same issue. The only way back I have found to to Odin back to stock and start over. I've tried wiping and formatting everything short of my externalsd. Flashing stock radio and stock kernel again.

Scott has something in the works and will be dropping it soon. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:
Screw 5.1/5.5. Most of us are either dealing, or have restored 4. Get us 6, with Aroma, Slacker. :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
Yeah.... I have to agree. Aroma is to big to wait for.:fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cd2573:
is there a way to pass the apps to the external sd card on this rom .....thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spike96:
Wiping internal SD wipes root status as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
Odin back to stock wipes root. Just wiping the SD cards will not remove your root.

Great rom sbreem. My 5 is working great with no gps issue. Is there anything else in 5.5 that is worth a redownload? Or is it just for the gps issues? Thanks for all your hard work brutha!

We love to torture ourselves, don't we? Roms are an addiction :) On a side note, I have TWRP installed Via GooManager, and it's done really great for me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SolemnSinner:
CWM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fadac:
Thanks Scott! Appreciate the work!

Just a suggestion... that last website you uploaded RLS5 to (RomHut or w.e) had horrible download speeds. Not sure if it was just me or what but I know AndroidHost I get great speeds. Just an FYI. Thanks.

BTW: I use OUDHS Touch CWM-based Recovery 1.0.3.5. Absolutely love it and have had no problems with it so far!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rdefino:
Awesome news!!!!

I think everyone looking to run this should click the donate button and give what you can. I did already.

Even though there are/were problem with 5, we know Scott can fix them and I'm running 4, which is a rock solid ROM.

Great work Scott!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fadac:
No. He just means full wipe as listed in the install instructions on post #2.

Only time you should have to go back to stock is if your phone is not functional or you can't get to your recovery like scott was saying he was having a problem with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dontcallmejames:
yeah, just making sure. some people were making it sound like full wipe wouldn't fix the gps issue.

Off topic but are there any cwm recoveries that support a 64gb sd card? TWR supports 64gb sd cards however it's filled with bugs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NickSaul:
Any word on that Zeus Kernel? That wouldn't have anything to do with the GPS issue, would it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
Using Philz Touch CWM. But you knew that. Hahaha

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------

Some people will have to Odin back to stock. For some reason even doing a full wipe x3 doesn't clear the GPS issue. I had finally got the problem to replicate on one of my S4 and no matter what I did after that I had to Odin back to stock to get GPS to lock again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
That wouldn't have anything to do with it since that kernel wasn't baked into RLS5.

Philz Touch CWM is currently the best recovery IMO. TWRP has given me nothing but headaches on this phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtswartz81:
What is the issue with 64g cards? I have a 64g that I used on my S2 and CWM with no problems and that same 64g card on TWRP with my S4, and problems he either
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] calsax:
I alternate between Philz CWM and TWRP (from Goo). I far prefer CWM, but sometimes ya just gotta go with TWRP.

To repeat a previous question, to which there has not yet been an answer: Is there anything in 5.5 to entice those of us with functional GPS in 5 to switch? I am over the need to flash daily, and only flash when there is a compelling reason. Inquiring minds want to know...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rdefino:
So what's the latest version of CWM or TWR can we run on the S4's.

Also, what is Goo?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
If your sd card is formatted fat32 then their is no problem, but it your card is exfat CWM won't read it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I always prefer CWM he has been doing the recovery for a long time so I really trust it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
It depends on which CWM you use, Philz, OUDHS, etc. You can search for which one you'd like to use. With TWRP you can dl GooManager from the Play store and install from there.

Please read OP's instructions carefully so there are no mishaps... :) Happy flashing!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpmcnown:
GooManager, among other things, allows you do download and flash the latest TWRP custom recovery, assuming you're rooted. The latest version of TWRP Recovery for the S4 is 2.5.0.2,

After rooting, and installing GooManager, select the Menu button, and "Install OpenRecoveryScript", and "yes" to confirm the Recovery Install. That will download and flash the recovery, and you're done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dontcallmejames:
i use OUDHA (Touch CWM based recovery)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2291976

it supports 64gb, though i had to reformat it first. TWRP recognized my SD card when it was formatted in exFat, but CWM recoveries didn't. i had no problems after i reformatted it to fat32.
