I was wondering the same thing. It seems like I remember when they had the thread trying to find an unlock method that they were talking about different hardware revisions of the phone. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause it to work fine for some people but not work for others no matter what they tried.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gcarterny:
These same type of issues with GPS used to affect the S3 the same way some people had issues others didnt and that was on all different roms. The AGPS fix is what most people ended up using its probably a similar situation here..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AmericanCon:
No. Its user error...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
Any plans to set the notification toggle back to GPS on/off, instead of Location on/off, like it's supposed to be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
You have to install on the stock slot.

What bootloader are you on? I'm assuming not mdk so:

If you can't get into safestrap you'll have to Odin. It takes several tries sometimes for Odin to complete. I kept getting errors but it finally completed.

Make sure to select the safestrap users option at the kernel selection prompt otherwise you will end up with no wifi (will have to flash module) and a stock kernel. Also don't forget to flash the Hyperdrive UI zip. At the end of the install when promoted to reboot just hit the back key on your phone to return to safestrap.

I think there might be an xposed module for that.

I was able to (after much weeping and gnashin of teeth) get towelroot to work, then safestrap to reinstall. It took v e r y s l o w l y because the keyguard process was failing with every touch. Once I was able to get into safestrap I was able to flash the UI and wifi fix and all was well with the world again.

FWIW: I have been able to use at least ROM Slot1, I just prefer to load into the stock slot if I can. I had Hyperdrive 21 running on all cylinders from slot1 . I'm on the NG6 bootloader.

This is the key piece. This exact wording might be helpful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Also try amplify. And got a few dollars JuiceDefender works superb in my opinion. There is a free version but I like the tweakability of JuiceDefender Ultimate. I've been using it for about 2 years now.

I use JD, Greenify (with the xposed module too) and Amplify (an xposed module).

I average around 8-10 hrs with moderate to heavy use but normal usage throughout the day (ie no intensive games) I can get 18 easily and have gotten over 26 hours with minimal use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
Ummm maybe, but as of RLS 19 this toggle was fine. I skipped 20 and now on 21 it is all screwed up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Likkleskip:
21 is great :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] j21098:
I flashed it and I'm having a problem where it doesn't turn the screen on sometimes when I get a message. I have to hold the power button for it to reboot the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
What toggle are you talking about?

I have a Samsung tablet (with Lollipop) and my wife has a 100% stock S4 (also with Lollipop) and both say location and not GPS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
The notification area toggles. I'm not talking about stock ROM or other devices. As of version 19 it always said GPS, now it says "location". But what it says isn't my issue but rather the behaviour of the toggle. Instead of turning just the GPS on and off it turns ALL location services on and off.

I don't know about everyone else but normally I keep network based location always on so that my weather app (for example) will work properly. And the GPS I would only turn on when I need it like when using Maps (for example).

So now I cant just turn the GPS on with a toggle I have to go into settings to turn it on, or use a third party widget. I've been with Hyperdrive since version 16 and this was never an issue until now, v21.

So ummm, not to be rude or anything, but if your not using Hyperdrive then I don't understand why you responded... Or why your even in here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
I am using Hyperdrive. Where in my post did I say I wasn't?

I'm pretty sure that was changed by Samsung or Verizon in one of the updates. I don't think it was something sbreen did.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
"I have a Samsung tablet (with Lollipop) and my wife has a 100% stock S4 (also with Lollipop) and both say location and not GPS."

Misunderstanding, sorry it didn't occur to me that you were comparing these devices to what I am now guessing to be your own S4 with this ROM.

But if you have been on previous versions of this HD you should have noticed this change. Accept v20, I skipped that one because so many people were having problems with it I didn't want to deal with it.

Maybe I am not understanding the ROM making process but it was my belief that sbreen was continuing to update and improve the existing ROM with each version,not starting from scratch each time. So it wouldn't have mattered what Samsung changes made. Iduno.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
You could be right.

I thought when there was an official update, sbreen would use that as the base for a new release.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Nevermind that. I was thinking of the module for the icon, not the actual function.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] torchdown2011:
verizon s4 mdk

I just flashed hyperdrive 21 and still have issues with Bluetooth not connecting

and I see where base band should be I545VRUFNC5 im at 1545vramdk if I flash the nc5 modem should this get my Bluetooth working again

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Anyone have problems with installing apps. My SD Card disconnects for some reason
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
If you are on mdk and flash the nc5 modem I am pretty sure you screw yourself over and loose the unlocked boot loader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] torchdown2011:
OK thanks for the info. Would you have an idea what I need to do

To get blue tooth to work what I need to do. I would rather not mess up on mdk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thefederer:
Which Xposed module did you use to prevent the pulldown from being transparent. I'm having an issue where it becomes transparent after every reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] saketkutta:
I was having same issue. Use gravity box to make the notification panel based on percentage of transparency. I hope it works.

Well and I have a problem with toggle. The power saver toggle does bit work for me. It does changed color and not the per saver option. Nor it goes to power saver settings when long pressed.

Can somebody check if it's my device only or the rom broke it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
I didn't change anything in regards to the toggle. This is a change samsung made on all their newer devices. I'm using a new ui from samsung in rls21 thus you get their updated toggle
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] craigviar:
Thanks for clearing that up. So in their intent to make things better they actually make them worse. Perhaps it's a way to get people to just leave their GPS on all the time. For data collection purposes of course.

Anybody know a way to change our back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thefederer:
Thanks, that worked. My power saving toggle is also turning on and off without changing the actual setting so it might not just be you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
I need that greyscale power saving mode but the one ROM that has it doesn't support Closed thanks to Samsung. Is that hidden somewhere in Hyperdrive by any chance? I can't find a port for some reason.

Hyper drive is working great. I made the notification panel black because I hate the shades of blue. Can we do this to pop ups?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] inetquestion:
Flashing a modem doesn't affect the bootloader. I'm on MDK as well and have upgraded through all the modems all the way to OC1. Not sure why your bluetooth isn't working I'm on RLS21 and its working fine. Did you flash both files in the RLS21 release?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Just an FYI for everyone. I noticed that ui changes from the HD Tweaks app and toggle adjustments were not persistent until I change something in HD tweaks that requested root access. Once I granted root access permanently any changes I made stuck through a reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Yo [MENTION=4600715]sbreen94[/MENTION] we got root and can flash roms now on the vzw s6. Come join the party now lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Focused Haunter:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
I can't get past the no SD card and carrying around a SD adapter... doesn't appeal..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oldwolf613:
I'm seriously thinking of getting a VZW S6, but haven't seen where rooting & flashing instructions are to be found for it…

Please advise, I have Searched on Verizon GS6, but no luck…

TIA. oldwolf
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glasairmell:
When I run PdaNet on RLS21 with USB connection I get:

"Unfortunately com.android.systemui has stopped"

This happens when the Allow USB Debugging screen comes up on the PC saying " The Computers Finger Print is ... "

On the phone, the screen to allow the computers finger print is not coming up. Can not remember ever having to do that anyway.

I have been using PdaNet on many custom ROMs over the years and this is the first time I have seen this.

Any suggestions please?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Root uses PingPongRoot. For flashing, FireFlash is the only option(unless they got safestrap working...)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Search the vzw s6 development thread for rom/Odin files. The ping-pong root is in general vzw s6 thread. Flashfire pretty much like our recovery for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
There are only 4 topics in Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Android Development thread, and one of them is instructions for root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wally44:
The expanded memory options available compensates for the lack of replaceable SdCard support along with the faster access to the memory. I've also had 2 Sandisk microSD failures in the last year (typically not fatal, but fails to write properly). So it isn't all a downside to not have a replaceable sdcard. I may do backups a little different because of the change in the memory structure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Couldn't have said it better myself :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
But the SD adapter is tiny. One could fit in ur wallet easily but I do understand carrying an extra thing isn't the best option. Me idc the s6 is that sick lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
I already water cargo shorts in the winter to carry everything.... Plus you lose the convenience of having a card IN the phone rather than carrying one around. Unless mophie makes their case like they did with the iPhone(storage + battery) I most likely will go away fr Samsung and to a device with Proper ROM support and an unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I'll wait for the s7. ? . Played with the s6 it's nice but not a big enough leap for me to drop my s4 for it. Besides they put out models like every 4 to 5 months. With all the roms available I am content till the s7 appears. Still have unlimited data so I'll have to buy out right as well. Blah. ? dam Verizon. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Bwuahaha u kidding right? It's 3 million times better than the s4. I had the s4 and believe me it is. Touchwiz is much more better. They stripped the hell out of it. But hey I feel u on ur decision tho lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Never said it wasn't better than the s4. Simply stated wasn't a big enough leap for me to buy one. With rooted s4 you can strip all that stuff out anyways. But if you don't have unlimited data and want to upgrade have at it. ? I'll keep my unlimited data. And if you read up on the s7 it's the Next Big Thing. LMFAO jk. (Just lime they all are lol) glad your having a blast with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Gotcha[emoji109] lol. Just had to see what u meant. Yea I'm enjoying so far tho. Yep the next big thing is always coming lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Ya lol I bet. And I think it's actually a good thing they went to bigger HD instead of micro sd. Most apps save to internal, so really sd only helped with music and pictures. On the other hand was cheaper to get more space. I would have to get 64gb to be happy. I do to much. Guess I better start saving now for it hahaha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glasairmell:
Guess my post got lost in S6 chit chat. Back to RLS19 so I do not get this error.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ryanw5489:
Yea I'm with you on that also just wish it was a little bit bigger!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
I have never used pda net. What advantage is there over the built in wifi hotspot?

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

I've forgotten, does anyone remember how to fix the problem where the install button in Xposed doesn't work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glasairmell:
It passes the internet connection to the PC through USB whereby you can bridge the connection to a more powerful Wifi router. Side benefit the phone is always charged. Takes all Wifi hotspot load off the phone and provides a faster/stronger Wifi connection for all the devices that connect to the bridged Wifi router. 4g unlimited is my only source of internet in the remote area I live in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Sounds handy then.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
If I remember correctly you have to delete the Xposed file and then just use Xposed apk to install it. This will also give you the Xposed icon in your app draw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
Is there a way to change the APN settings? Most everything is greyed out and unselectable. I can't even add a new one.

And why is there no setting in developer settings for "long press back to kill current app"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Thanks I figured it out. . It was a JuiceDefender issue I'd forgotten about. I disabled JD temporarily. Doesn't happen to often.

Re: lack of SD card in the S6:

Yeah, you got that right. I'm quite happy with my S4 at the moment, but if I had to get a new phone soon, I'd be looking at the LG G4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
he doesn't have his s3 anymore, so no more updates
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] The North Butt:
Has there been any word on a Lollipop update? I know he just updated to RLS21, but maybe he's working on a newer version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Yes there are some things with the new lollipop(SMS and MMS was fixed)... Not that easy to go to a brand new version of android. At least a month
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] znel52:
Hey [MENTION=4600715]sbreen94[/MENTION] are you considering doing any dev work for the verizon s6? Just curious because I upgraded today. Hyperdrive on this phone would be sick!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Niotic:
I'm on the i545 s4 running nk1 and have successfully gotten hyperdrive to work, however I am having some issues with wifi as I see others have. I'm not sure if this is due to the modules I'm using of whether my phone refuses to reboot every time. Firstly, when you "wait 10 minutes" is that waiting 10 minutes in the initial set-up screen or after? Also, whenever I try to restart the phone after installing the ROM it doesn't want to shut off. It just reads "Shutting Down" endlessly with a few vibrations thrown in there from time to time. Next I've tried using an NK1 module I've found from a different post, also one for NC5 and a third for NG6 I believe but none seem to work. I'm following the instructions exactly and am not sure what I am doing wrong. I've seen some other members install the wifi modules after the first cache wipe once hyperdrive is installed and before installing SU, is this a viable option?

Any help is appreciated!

Anyone having charging issues after updating to 21? I'm on mdk and went from rls19 to rls21. Using the factory chargers (I have a few of them) I will slowly lose charge if using my phone while it's charging. Never had this issue before and it doesn't happen every time I plug in. Occasionally I get the toast message about using the factory charger, which I was using.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aut0tek:
These long single threads make things difficult to find. What is everyone using as a gallery replacement? Mine force closes all the time. Has done it for the last few releases. I think it's a known thing, but idk.

-aut0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Planterz:
Not charging issues, but definite battery draining issues. If used without SIM card, cell standby was a constant drain. If used with SIM (and without), the GPS failing was a constant drain. My Galaxy Light with its puny 1800mAh battery works fine USB tethered to my computer while simultaneously broadcasting a wifi hotspot. With my S4 on Hypderdrive, I was losing about 4-5% an hour (charging), and this is with a 7800mAh Anker battery.

I switched over to Omega, left it unplugged for 7 hours, and it dropped 1% (on wifi, no SIM). Obviously there's some issues with Hyperdrive and battery drain.

The stock gallery app crashed for me too. Didn't try an alternative.

I've only had my S4 for a couple weeks, so obviously I'm inexperienced with this device, or older versions. But I'm not finding RLS21 to be acceptable for daily-driver use. It's a shame, because I really like some of the features it offers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glasairmell:
I use QuickPic and works great for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aut0tek:
Brilliant. I like it. Now, to reset my defaults. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
Other than gallery crashing, what else is unacceptable about RLS21?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glasairmell:
RSA key fingerprint problem

On RLS21 when the Allow USB debugging screen should come up I am getting ""Unfortunately com.android.systemui has stopped". Please see attached screen shot.

Is there a way to manually bypass this or fix this problem?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Niotic:
Incase anyone is or will have the same problem I had in the future, I finally got this to work! I had to Odin my stock ROM down to NC5 then went through the entire reinstallation of HD on a different ROM slot and installed NC5 modules.

However, I am stilling having Powering Down issues. Is no one else having this? I've let the phone sit for around 10 minutes trying to shut down before I finally just pull the battery. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
The power down issue is a safestrap bug. And no it will not be fixed as it has been a bug since release and the dev has since retired safestrap work.

It never fully shuts down when in a slot.

Full shutdown only works on the stock slot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kongmingtwo:
I was curious... is the processing part of taking photos intended behavior? I have just noticed this since I upgraded, and my camera doesn't seem to auto-focus itself prior to taking a picture, although that's fixable if I just hold the button and manually focus it. I'm not experiencing any crashes though.

I upgraded from RLS19 on NG6 straight to RLS21. My flash process is 21 -> UI -> SSU 2.46 -> ng6 modules
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Niotic:
So would it be in my best interest to switch the two ROM slots? By this I mean to put HD into the Stock Slot and my stock ROM into the first slot? Or is this unadvised?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
That's really a matter of personal opinion.

I always use my stock slot to flash anything.

If I was skeptical of any rom or mod then I just ran a backup before flashing.

I really never used a rom slot.
