After a squeaky clean flash, I have no sound, at all. Pls help?

While on 4.4 I wasn't having problems but I do switch between TW 4.3 and AOSP 4.4 depending on what I have planned for the day. I have a v12 nandroid and when I restored the backup there is no sound at all. Next I cleaned up everything by formatting system, data, cache, media data, dalvik and I continued by squeaky clean flashing Hd v13. Well much to my disappointment there was 'no sound' at all. If I test the ringtone and notification they are being recognized cause they will vibrate. When I attempt to play a music app theres no sound and the music app will cause the device to freeze.

Super frustrating cause I've spent a lot of time on this issue and I cant figure it out. I love Hyperdrive and rely heavily on it when I'm working. IME and based on my particular needs there are too many issues on AOSP for me to use it during the work day.

I have checked the MD5 with each DL and they matched each time. I also DL'd the ROM 3x and clean flashed each time as well...

Hopefully one of our kick ass members will chime in and get me through this issue so I can get rolling on Hyperdrive again. Any measure of help is appreciated and I'll happily click thanks...!!!! :good::cool:

Yea, didn't help. So I have to unroot completely, install stock rom and recovery, and then root again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
U will have to re root then install recovery then install the rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] izgil82:
Is there a way to re-root without having to go back to stock rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
Last thing to try before that is to flash the SuperSU binary through recovery. http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip?retrieve_file=1

I doubt it will help but its worth a try. If you end up using Odin then it doesnt matter what rom you are on. You will be in download mode and with be flashing the stock rom anyhow.

[MENTION=4600715]sbreen94[/MENTION] thanks man for continuing your support for this great phone! Many have mentioned about white menu screen... I'm blind drunk can you update op please. I'm also having fc's in Contacts... the usual applies full wipe...ktoons kernel. I'm thinking it's the kernel, which I may disregard since you've introduced a nice section in Hype Tweaks!

Thanks for any help, and thank you for your dedication!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
When you mention that you wiped media data did you do a format of internal storage while in recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Solissfiend:
Not bad at all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mswilson2007:
how did you remedy the FC on contacts? I'm having that issue as well

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
Sounds good. Hope we can figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arlissnd:
I had the same exact problem. I was restoring nandroid backups between 4.4.2 and rls 12 and I would get no sound, no matter what I did. And I mean NO sound at all. I had to Odin back to stock and start over. That fixed it. Now I use Dual Boot switcher to switch Roms and it works like a champ.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steve Mannix:
Thanks for the reply, yofife2069. It's not a network issue, I can access the internet from the phone through the network. No Play access still. I may try a new, clean flash just to see if I broke anything when I flashed originally. The fact I've gotten limited replies to this tells me it's not a widespread issue, so hopefully i can narrow it down and fix.

I appreciate the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pbman1953:
Contacts are crashing, any one else having this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steve Mannix:
Sorry to reply to my own post, but I did a new, clean flash of the rom, without the ad blocker this time, and had the same issue. Is it possible the Play Store will not allow the connection because the phone is not active on the VW network? I haven't activated it, thinking I could set it up using wifi to download apps and have it ready to go before activating it. Is my thinking way off here? I have it set to auto date and time from the network, both are correct, is it possible the Play Store does not recognize this because the device is not active on the network?

If I have to, I can switch devices and just set up the S4 after it's active on the network.

Hopefully someone has run into this or has some ideas. Thanks in advance for any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Yes there r some people experiencing this. Me I'm not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dustyjerran:
well i can use an old device thats not active on the network and it works fine so i would think urs should be able to too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mswilson2007:
Edit

nvm lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steve Mannix:
Thanks for replying. That's what I thought, so probably not that. I do know the wifi works to get the internet, it just will not connect to the store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steve Mannix:
Replying to my own post again. I'm ready to give up on this phone. I decided after all to activate it on the VZW network, which I was able to easily do. I can't connect to Google Play through mobile data, either. I've tried everything I've read to fix it - checking the date and time, clearing Play cache and data, deleting and adding the Google account, deleting the host file, re-flashing the rom from scratch and NOTHING works. I can access the internet and my Google account through either mobile data or wifi, so I can verify connectivity works. It just won't work with the store regardless of what I've tried. No one else seems to share this issue which tells me it's something simple but I don't know what it can be.

I hope everyone else's S4 experience has been, is or will be better than mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sailrace:
Double check one thing. In applications manager, does Google Play Services show that there is an update that you can uninstall? It would be at the very top of the screen when you select Play Services from the App Manager. Its possible a bad update got stored on the device. If you uninstall updates and then try again, it might clear it out.

Or you could find the appropriate GAPPS package and and flash that in recovery since you're on MDK. Flashing over the GAPPS package might solve the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CraiaSoftware:
Day Date and Time in Status bar clock

In v12 using XuiMod there is an option to add the Date and Day to the Clock in the status bar. It will let you customize it completely to the format of your liking. XuiMod no longer works in v13 and there is no quite the robust option to do the same in HyperDrive Tweaks. Can this be added in for v14?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] izgil82:
Thank you guys for your help. It's working now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Glad 2 hear:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steve Mannix:
Thanks, Sailrace. I didn't have this issue but reflashed clean after activating on the network and it's now working (at least, through mobile data). Will check wifi tonight.

I appreciate your help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sailrace:
No problem. Glad its working. As someone else mentioned, I have 2 old devices, a Galaxy Nexus and a Droid Charge that i use a UPNP renderers for two stereo receivers in my house. This way i can cast my Google Music to either location via wifi and it plays senselessly. The point to all that, is that both of those old devices are wifi only, without VZW activation, and they connect to my Play Store account just fine. So you should be able to continue without issue via 4g/3g or wifi.

Let us know if you have further problems.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mswilson2007:
Ok guys...I'm wondering how would I go back and start with a blank canvas. Cuz I am having a whole host of issues now. It's so weird because I ran this rom for about 2 months issue free and now all hell has broken loose.

Had an issue with Contacts FC so I just cleared everything and reflashed. Now the phone WILL NOT boot without clearing the cache from recovery first. It's so weird.

Anyway, I was wondering what do I need to do to start blankly...like a complete format and install everything all over again. Is that possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Anthony825:
I recently downloaded Final Fantasy 6 on my stock slot and played a ways through it. I used Titanium Backup and attempted to restore it to my rls13 slot And it seemed to work fine. But for some reason it never let's me save anymore it just says failed. I don't know if that's an issue with the way the rom was coded or what.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Odin back and use the pit file to wipe everything, it resets all portions to factory, back up your internal storage too cause it wipes everything..

Are you mdk? Or newer using ss

Dud u install the aosp messenger?

What version are you using? (rom)

As much detail.. As possible.

If your on 13 and in fact picked the aosp messenger this causes the contact / phone issues ( fc)

I posted a fix for That a few pages back. So you guys don't have to reflash the rom..

Let me Know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] obsidianfirefly:
Hey how did you change the amount of toggles that show up? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mswilson2007:
Using RLS 12, tried to fix the original Contacts FC issue with your fix of flashing the MMS thing but that didn't work so I just tried to do a fresh flash. Since doing the fresh flash it has let in a flood gate of issues. All seemingly from nowhere. I never did understand the difference between Safestrap and MDK but I got my s4 several days after it released, and I am using TWRP 2.5.0.2 for recovery. Been using that recovery since the early stages of Snergy for the s4 with no problems at all.

Also, if it matters TWRP has been asking me for a password lately which I've never set. That's a new issue that has just started as well.

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

This seems like it's my issue...However, can anybody point me in the direction of what the heck "MDK" is and how to rebuild it? I know Odin but I'm not familiar with MDK and rebuilding.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pbman1953:
Actually the contacts are working again. Maybe because of a couple re-sync's and re- boots
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Yes I read your concerns back a ways in the thread

Your a bad ass and thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!

I read your concerns back a ways in the thread and was gonna PM you today cause I didn't see a resolution on the open forum.

Can you give me a link to the method you used to do a complete wipe???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
Using Odin was my worst case scenario fix. Was hoping to fix it without Odin but it seems like it may be your only option. Its just such a pain in the butt lol. Lemme see if I can find you a link.

any way to edit the icons in the aosp lockscreen. mine only shows camera, google and unlock. (rls 13)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
MDK was the only version that was able to add recovery (twrp cwm) using the loki method.

If you took the ota you lost the ability to use this method.

Cause the new firmware

So you could only root but never flash via recovery

Hashcode developed safe strap for me7 and on ward. To sideload a rom

Did you ever try clockwork mod?

When the s4 was released there was issues with it..

I see a lot of the people having issues have this in common..

Give it a try..

Been using cwm touch since the twrp issue and never had one issue..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ULEWZ:
Swipe down from the top. Hit the 4 squares at top right corner, hit the pen, and drag and hold an Icon from the lower half, then drag and drop to the upper half.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Ya I've put up a fight but the 'no sound' persists on all 4.3 TW ROM's so far. I have tried every possible combination of setups and kernals too.

I have followed process of elimination and I think there's an underlying problem that will require an Odin complete wipe and return to MDK stock. As much as I don't want to completely wipe the device, at this point, I don't see another fix...:confused:

One thing that's thought provoking is the fact that I have always had a nandroid of Hyperdrive. I restore it, as needed, and have never had an issue. The sound, has always worked as expected, til' yesterday. This particular time I restored Hdv12 there was no sound at all. Next I restored a 4.4 ROM and confirm the sound works as expected. Again I restored the Hdv12 nandroid and there's 'no sound'!!! Frustrating the hell outta me...4.4 ROM=working sound, 4.3 ROM=borked sound.

A backup that I regularly use and has never had issues now has no sound at all...what changed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonair95:
When I

switched from CM11 to TW, the sound wasn't working for me either. I figured out it was the MK2 modem that caused it. I just flashed the MDK modem with non-hlos to fix it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] obsidianfirefly:
Thanks but that doesn't change the amount that show up without having to scroll. If you look at the screenshot I quoted it has several toggles in the notification panel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
consciousplan

is a member who doesn't have enough posts to be active here on our forum. He/she PM'd me and encouraged me to flash my OG modem MDK with non holos. I did and that fixed the problem immediately. I don't remember why or when I flashed MK2 but nonetheless all credit for fixing my problem goes to

consciousplan

brandonair95 and consciousplan thank you very much for sharing! You both identified the problem...TMYINC helped me along the way as well, thanks for all the help guys.

Problem solved and now I'm off to flash v13, again...!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbyt23:
Check your memory. Anytime I've had that problem, it was because my sd card (or device memory) didn't have enough room on it.

Bluetooth controller support

I was wondering if my controller would work when I got all set up. I can confirm that moga pro power is working just fine. Just installed moga pivot synced the controller and all keys/functions are working fine. Bought the moga when anything after android 4.2 update broke wii controller and ps3 controller support, moga was still fine. Really glad I purchased it now!!! I am using Safestrap and Hyperdrive RLS13 on my Verizon Galaxy S4 I545 MK2. My device benchmarks much higher and games are much smother. GTA SA was running 18-34 FPS now it stays at 60 FPS with drops in the low 50's. Quadrant scores over 3000 points higher and I don't see me changing back to stock without a serious issue. Plus it looks awesome and is soo customizable!!! I'm sorting other issues, now that I realize they have nothing to do with this rom... ;) Thanks for creating hyperdrive it's awesome!!!

Google search bar won't stick

Has anyone figured out why the Google search bar won't stick on the home screen with rls12? I do have the note launcher and some wanam mods. I searched for this and found a couple other people with the issue, but no resolutions. Is everyone having this problem? Or are there certain combos of mods that aren't jiving together? Just curious if other people are having the same problem.

New to flashing and having problems? read this

Thanks for the reply. I've been wanting to try out rls13 but a lot of people are complaining about various issues. It seems like everyone's individual experience is different based on carrier, what options they pick in aroma, kernel choice, voltage and oc/uc settings, and of course, combos of wanam mods and clean flashing. I don't think that people's devices hardware are playing too much of a role here. I think it's important to try only one or a couple mods at a time so that you can isolate a problem if there is one. If everything seems good, try adding another one. It will take longer to set up, but with this many options for customisation, it's almost like everyone is running a different setup so it's a lot harder to identify common problems than with more of a "cookie cutter" type of rom. This rom is almost like a few different roms rolled into one. And trust me, it's a good one. Sounds like Scott is coming out with a new release anyway. Thanks bud. Kinda went off on a tangent here. Thanks for the info jawiler. How's 13 been for you? You on Verizon? I might just wait for the new release. 12 has been good to me. I just want the search bar to stick and like the note launcher. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GHOSTIVVI:
Which kernel are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thevance1:
I assume you were asking me this cuz the other guy you quoted is on ss. I am on the stock kernel with rls12 (the non kt kernel option in aroma).
