[MENTION=642589]sbreen[/MENTION]. Awesome work once again. It appears most users are safe strapped and up and running. But the only other Mdk user that chimed in has the same problem as I do where blue tooth won't turn on and trying to disconnects wifi. How can we fix this? Or can this officially be listed in the bug tracker?

:( Sadly I've had to leave this ROM behind because of this issue. Couldn't resolve. And I wasn't using NFC as I have the ZeroLemon battery that hasn't had that so I've always paired via just BT. Tried various things including re-removal of gear manager and associated apps. Installed gear manager clean from Samsung. Tried an older version sideloaded. ect... Could never get it to get a connect.

Back on Surges via Nandroid and all is well.

Was really looking forward to some HD action again. oh well

bluetooth

I too have mdk and Bluetooth will not turn on and doing so turns wifi off. Not a deal breaker for me. I hardly use Bluetooth. Just wanted to let everyone know I am another mdk user that can confirm problems. Using kt kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] daventodd123:
Everything seems to be working well! One thing that I noticed was that when I went to reboot my phone, it would say that SafeStrap is disabled and after clicking on "Reboot Recovery" in the SafeStrap app, it never reboots into Safestrap. It kinda just sits there lol. I have root access and I can get into SafeStrap if I need to, so it's not a huge issue atm

Where is the vet screen off effect tweak??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] psu90:
Had you done a dirty install of that ROM first when you had the Bluetooth problem? I know I did a factory wipe (data and cache) and dalvik before I started the Aroma install and then told the Aroma installer to do the same thing when I installed HD 16 for the 1st time. I still had the Bluetooth problem.

Every reboot shows "Android is Upgrading" message .. like when wiping davlik.

(since I have searched and searched and come up empty - I feel foolish having to ask, but I seem to be at the end of the rope.)

Thanks,

No bluetooth issue here. I'm on mdk and have been using my bluetooth headphones all morning. Also synced to my car no problem. No reboots nothing, fingers crossed but this thing is running as good as any ROM I have ever used.

Can someone tell me if I can customize Samsung apps installed on this ROM through the aroma installer or not? If not, can someone tell me how much space is left on their system ROM (you can see this when you use titanium backup).

Solution for MDK Bluetooth Problem

Thanks to h_10 for the suggestion.

I originally had the Bluetooth problem (on MDK boot loader) and nandroided back to HD15. I then said what the hell and tried h_10 suggestion. Nothing better to do than cut the grass which I really don't want to do. He was my process.

1) factory wipe (data & cache) & davlik before entering Aroma

2) in Aroma select for it to also doe factory & davlik wipe

3) Pick all your options (I used the stock kernel & S5 launcher)

4) Reboot

5) Do absolutely minimal setup required to get to launcher (I verified no Bluetooth)

6) Reboot into recovery

7) Clear cache & davlik

8) Do a dirty install

Once I was back into HD 16 I had fully wifi and Bluetooth capability at the same time.

Now to restore the rest of may apps and get may Google Wallet back.

Hopefully others will have luck with this method.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] The North Butt:
This was the only one that worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
My goodness people. If your WiFi or bluetooth doesn't work or works with "connection" issues its not because of your modem.

If you're on any bootloader before NC2 you will have to comment out the line below located in the build.prop

In order to edit the build.prop and have it save, system has to be mounted r/w so you will have to run the following command first:

su
mount -o remount,rw /system

If you're on the NC5 or NC2 bootloader then you can simply flash the NC5 modules. If for some god-awful reason you cant figure out what bootloader your on then run this command

su
getprop ro.bootloader

The only other possibilities effecting Wifi would be if your running a different HLOS then your kernel.

finally, a google search on how to use dmesg, kmsg, insmod, rmmod, readelf, objdump, grep, and at the very least logcat will greatly help.

Also the reason we had to use the kernel modules zips in the first place was because we had people running roms built with a different base than the kernel the user had installed on their device. If you're flashing a rom built on an NC5 base and you have the NC5 kernel already installed, then theres no reason to flash any module zips at all. Just make sure all the *.ko files in /system/lib/modules have the right perms (chmod 644)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ddc0806:
Bluetooth issue fix...ish.

For those on MDK with Bluetooth issues, just persevere and try several attempts from different angles, that's what worked for me.

Turning on BT from settings still does nothing from the pull down, it still shows a dim "ON", but checking the box to make visible to all devices and then a scan enabled me to pair with my head phones, and then a reboot may be necessary when I want to reconnect to my headphones if they disconnect (had to once so far). I won't turn BT off now that I have it on, till a fix is found at least. Minor inconvenience but I did get it working, but it never disconnected my WIFI as a side note. I got it to come on once using the full page of toggles too.

Other than that and 1 random reboot right after I installed, where I nearly sh!t myself (not again, after about 7-10 a day) KK is rocking smoothly. Great work Scott and Team! Donation coming on payday.

MDK, Philz Touch, S5 launcher
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mhaas75:
I may be getting over my head here, but I thought the bootloader is separate from the base.

All my Radios and other things are based on NC5. Bootloader is the only thing that stayed consistent. I never took the automatic updates to NC2, or NC5 and maintained my MK2 as per OP's instructions.

I am really just sharing what I did and went through.

I believe if one took the ota update to NC5 then they would have to downgrade to go back up with root and all, otherwise one would just upgrade their operating system, while maintaining current bootloaders.

Again, just stating that when I installed this rom, wifi didn't work for me either, until in installed the NC2 modem file. Then once that probl3m was corrected, I was then able to go right over top with the NC5 modem files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Azuma73:
I'm sorry, I mis-quoted!?!? Thought you were referring to the "move app" thing in the middle of stock S5 launcher.

Mah bad......

:silly::eek::p:rolleyes:

Anyhoo.........oh yeah, wifi issue......

Well, I did Surge's method from 4.3 mk2>4.4.2 nc5 method(keeping mk2 bootloader) and flashed the following module/modem files and everything is A1 supreme here. No probs at all....at least for me!?!?

Surge,

With all due respect, the biggest share of your suggestions are so far over most of our heads that its incomprehensible.

We don't want to learn how to build roms. LOL

Your knowledge on the other hand is invaluable, I for one would never have been able to gain root on an NC5 phone without your help. And from the popularity of your thread its pretty obvious that I'm not alone.

You guys are the masters at this, most of us are just followers.

I was thinking of the right way to say what you just said....

Well my adb skills were a little rusty.. but I ran some of those commands.. and it turns out im on a MK2 bootloader. That line is already commented out on my build.prop though. (i'm assuming commenting out in linux is #)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] The North Butt:
Why do I loose root when I install? I was on rooted 4.4.2 before with safestrap 3.7.2 installed. I have installed to the stock slot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Lol my bad if I came off as arrogant, but im just saying that we have people on 5 different bootloaders that can potentially be running kk roms (MDK, MJ7, MK2, NC2, and NC5). Its a headache to have to support individual bootloaders with different fixes so I thought id post how one should go about debugging this in general as oppossed to saying "MK2 bootloader ppl do this, NC2 do this"...etc

When it comes down to it, understanding whats happening and or getting diagnostic info via logs will go along way towards finding an solution, not to mention saving devices from getting bricked.

in summary:

MDK people - don't try anything

MJ7/MK2 people -flash the NC5 modules and comment out that line in your build prop. Still having issues? then flash either the MJ7/MK2 HLOS or NC5 HLOS and see if either helps

NC2/NC5 people -Shouldnt have to do anything. Still having issues? then flash either the NC5 HLOS and see if it helps

otherwise open terminal type

su
cat /proc/last_kmsg >/sdcard/kmsg.txt
dmesg >/sdcard/dmesg.txt

cat /sdcard/kmsg.txt |grep lk
cat /sdcard/dmesg.txt |grep lk

and pm me the terminal output you get at the end.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
This whole thing is a learning experience to all of us in one way or another.

For one thing, the dev has never used safestrap. The process for flashing this rom if you're on MDK is completely different than it is if you are using safestrap.

That and there is also a big difference in flashing a 4.3 rom using a safestrap version that is made for the rom versus flashing a 4.4 rom using a beta version of safestrap that wasn't even written for a Verizon phone.

Everyone just needs to be patient and it will all come together. There are a lot of talented people on this board that spend an unbelievable amount of their personal time figuring all of this out for us.
