There is a huge difference somewhere. I use the exact same setup between both phones. Same apps, same setting minus greenify on MDK, same push notifications, same accounts, etc. I have installed several times on both bootloader versions and always a big difference between the two. You must have everything greenified and not many live updates and notifications. I have everything enabled that can be enabled because i want to get the most out of the phone and not restrict anything, use it at its fullest potential. If I would limit my usage and active notifications etc and kill every app then yes i could also get that much or better batt life from MK2 but that is NOT what i want to spend time worrying about and dealing with.

All I can say is yes there is a difference in having the MDK bootloader over the MK2 bootloader. Im not saying it is the bootloader, but with the MK2 you cannot change to anything other than stock kernel, now that i flashed the KT kernel, it is a completely different phone and the battery life to prove it. So i would imagine it something with the kernel which i implied from the beginning. Also my battery is better on 17.1 than it was on HD 14, 15, or 16. AND if i was using greenify to get better batt life on MK2 and then NOT using it at all on MDK, then that's a big indicator between the two.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkoyskip:
hmmm.... there should be some way to sticky something like this on the thread:

more info please such as baseband (mdk, mk2, etc)

are you using safestrap

did you install the modules if necessary

att/tmobile or verizon

after this:

are you using wanam

have you frozen/deleted apps

messed with init.d

just trying to assist you as it's difficult to help you without more information. i'm no expert but listing as much info as you can will help the more advanced folks help you, and the less advanced (myself) help you also.

good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lagos3sgte:
I guess Im just asking for general experience with the rom to see if there is a common issue.

This is MDK based on verizon.

I tried the stock kernel as well as the tweaked versions and still have the same random reboot issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bryantjopplin:
Are you doing anything when it reboots? What developer options are on or off?

Fortune Favors The Bold!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkoyskip:
i certainly am not trying to bash you or anything, was just looking for more info as i've been keeping a log of issues/etc for myself. kinda wish i was on mdk myself so i don't need to deal with all of the other issues i deal with.

have you tried the various kernels through the same installation or have you performed a fresh install each time?

i'm not an android/linux expert but when all fails there are certain steps available, my suggestion:

if you have the time & data space i would suggest performing a fresh install (sorry, pc lingo, i mean do data/factory+wipe cache+dalvik)

use only stock options, try it out, create nandroid

do this for each kernal, create nandroid, try it out

see if the same issue occurs (troubleshooting takes time but it is also a way to find the root of the issue)

if you don't have the time than restore your factory nandroid immediately (if you made one) or download another (odin) and begin from scratch.

just trying to help out, if not some other more experienced one may assist you. i may be awake for a bit longer if i can help you out.

good luck!

So can 17.1 be flashed on stock slot or no? I saw that it said RLS 16 must be flashed on stock, but didn't see anything definitive about 17...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] evilryry:
Yes.. Since safestrap hasn't been updated, all roms, hyperdrive or any other rom, currently must be flashed to stock slot at this time.

Thanks. Safestrap on my KK note 3 is fully functional so I didn't know it was so limited on the S4.

Another question, in the screenshots for this ROM it shows the full S5 UI but when I flash the power toggles are still themed like the old Touchwiz. What am I doing wrong?

Major problems

Running my S4 on 17.1 with NC5.

I have read all 2750 pages of this forum, flashed HD 15 up to 17.1, have scratched my head a few times, reached out to others for a few answers and can't understand why I don't have any (zero) problems.

This ROM is perfect! Thanks [MENTION=4600715]sbreen94[/MENTION]

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
I got a few at first but they stopped. I went into hyperdrive tweaks and reset the permissions, rezippaligned my apps, and wiped all caches. That fixed it for me. I then installed xposed after all that and have had no random reboots. Im on verizon with MDK. This is just what I did, may or may not help but thought I would try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spirodave:
You install 17.1 exactly the same way .. The instructions haven't changed flash rom don't reboot then su thenn module

I have installed HD many times from 16 - 17.1 ...... The only reboots I have ever had is during setup and while all the apps are downloading and installing If you just let the device sit without touching it while its installing all your synced apps it wont doi it ... even if it does I have only had maybe one or two reboots right at setup and never again after that ..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dinc2010:
Hey I was in the same dilemma as you and found my solution was to install the right safestrap nc5 module.

So anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Why am i not getting the full S5 UI? I have this issue on both my note 3 and wife's s4. I selected the S5 UI in aroma so not sure why I'm only getting half of the ui....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spirodave:
What do u mean half the UI? what is missing ? If you are talking about the the settings menu then you can get that from the themes and apps section ...

there is also a sec setting apk you can push to system

or look here

Here it is

The pull down power toggles are not S5 style and the notification bar is black not clear. That portion looks just like 4.3.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spirodave:
View attachment 2869030

you can change the pull down quick setting also .. but remember in aroma it says MODDED S5 UI so its not exactly the same .. The pic above is how my settings look on HD after putting secsetting.apk in sys/priv-app folder ..If you want this remember to change the permissions .. I got my pull down setting to look like the S5 but they end up being White in color .. not a big deal for me since I only look at quick setting for a short second

Also if you want to change the quick setting pull down icons do this

Tmobile Option

Hi,

I have read all pages of the forum. I have tried falshing the rom on my SG4 Tmobile M919. But Aroma installer does not have an option for Tmobile for the latest build. Which one (besides tmobile, since the only options are ATT and Verizon) should I flash?

And the tmobile compatibility pack errors out in TWRP.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
I would say ktoonsez is more stable than talexop, that kernel isn't our true stock kernel anyway since we're on MDK bootloader running a rom on newer firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppersu812:
So what kernel are we using if we use stock on this Rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ebsk8er06:
My phone overheats every time I use ktoonsez kernal, so I stick with the stock I don't know why tho, it overheats And then reboots, it doesn't play nice with my phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
The stock settings are kind of aggressive but there's hundreds of combos of profiles and scripts in ktweaker shop that might work better for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] travisjshepherd:
I'm new to the whole SS rom installation, are there nightlies with stock roms like this or is it just a release every so often? I was used to flashing Liquid nightlies on my vzw gnex last year, to being locked down with stock on this thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkoyskip:
No nightlies, just install it and love it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 2crazeybolt:
I read all the profile descriptions on Ktoonz page but can't decide which one to try. Have you found any that you prefer? I guess i could just try different ones but was just wondering if there was one you thought worked well. Also do you install the script first and then the profile? Thanks...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Doesn't matter the order , I usually load a profile first because you need a reboot cycle to load a script. I recently got some extended batteries now I'm all about performance but when I was looking for battery/performance balance my favorite combo was Asking Alexandria profile and Hydra script
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zetachi:
hmm I tried to flash ktweaker but went into a continuous boot. Would not progress past load screen. Had to reflash 17.1 to get back.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tenchi4U:
I've searched around, with little luck.

Anybody having issues with setting the default messaging app? I've tried chomp, textra and handcent (supposedly has kitkat support); none keep my "set as default" setting when prompted within the app itself.

Oddly enough, none show up in the default messaging settings list either (only default samsung one included in the ROM and, for some reason, Titanium Backup - see attached). Is there a file/list/setting i can modify to add other Sms apps to this list?

Thanks for any insight/advice!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiroimin:
Couple of issues

I have had been with HD for a long time, but with the latest version, I am having a few issues.

My Phone : SafeStrap / NC2 / Multiple installations running for several days

1. The battery drain - compared to 16, 17 runs out about 3 times faster then 16 did. Completely exact same apps, emails and usage, but much worse battery life. I have tried all 3 kernels. Completely depleted the battery, fully charge and reset the battery stats and everything. No change

2. I am unable to update/install any modules in the framework. "App not installed. An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed"

3. Using the Viper4Android mod, I am unable to get rid of the "Safe volume warning"

4. Per app DPI setting are not taking effect at all. Nevermind this one... I'm the idiot for not checking the App Settings under Modules

All of these things were working just fine in the older version. Just wanted to know if there is a fix for any of these or if I might have to go back a version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cobra7361:
With battery...99% of the time it is NOT the ROM..

Use greenify and greenify donation package.... Pm me...with triple ur battery life...

With xposed....u need to use a root browser and go to system/app and delete xposed.apk

Then reboot....download the newest version of xposed and install....this will also put xposed into ur app drawer

Also for the safe volume warning there is a xposed mod. For that...called safe volume warning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiroimin:
Thank you so much for your help. The XPosed stuff is now working flawlessly, and I will look into the greenify app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stuartv:
Are you using Exchange ActiveSync for any of your email accounts? If so, look under Settings/Battery and see if Exchange Services is listed anywhere near the top. When I tried HD, Exchange Services went from a normal of about 4% of my battery usage (on stock NC5) to 50-80% of my battery usage (on HD 17.1). If that's your problem, the only way I have found to fix it is a server-side change on the Exchange Server. Otherwise, on HD you're just effed.

I used Google maps for a 8hr trip today and twice my phone gave an overheating message and shut down. This never happened on stock 4.3. Is there a decent cpu setting in tweaks that will stop the overheating ? I really only need processing or volts for maps and gps to run.

I'm on 17.1, SS with NC5. I had gps and bluetooth on.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cobra7361:

Maybe try using gps test for navigation and see if u still have same problems...

Don't know that's a odd problem...I have seen others post about over heating but never had a problem so far..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stuartv:
Look, I am tired of trying to explain this to you. I have made a sincere effort and you are, apparently, not technical enough to understand the explanation.

If you had read and made even a small effort to understand what I've already explained to you, then maybe you would, by now, have done a Google search for "exchange services android battery" and educated yourself on the fact that there are LOTS of people with the problem. It is not specific to HyperDrive, but it IS IN HyperDrive, as well as many other stock and custom ROMs.

Further, if you read what I have posted in this thread previously, you might (though apparently you aren't technical enough) understand that whatever code base HD is built on apparently has this problem worse than the stock NC5 ROM.

So, please, let it go. Greenify is not the solution to the world's problems. Setting an Exchange client to poll instead of Push is not acceptable to many people, therefore it's not a solution. It's a workaround. The problem is real. I have posted an actual solution. NOTHING that you have posted about this has been helpful to me or ANYONE else. Educate yourself and shut up, or stay ignorant and shut up. Either way, please....

I have done this successfully in the past with Stock, CM and GPE roms.

I love this ROM, or used to.

Since moving to the latest kitkit (MK5/NC5 radio) I have had:

1) Bluetooth doesn't turn on. Trying different kernels and radios was no help

2) Attachments on exchange force close. Re-installing with different e-mail clients was no help.

3) Date/time wont' display

4) If you drain the battery dead, you have to charge it for 20 minutes before you can turn it back on.

I used to love this rom, but looking through the comments here, others have had some of these issues with no clear resolutions. I'm going to have to use another rom and revisit when hopefully things have stabilized to their former glory. I hope they get fixed someday.
