I had the same "write protected" problem with my 64gb uhs. Now I'm using my old 32 uhs and it has to remount all the time, but at least saves files.

You think that'll work? Or should I just plan on doing another clean flash tonight?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Re download the Aroma installer for HD 19 and check MD5. Then dirty flash. If you had a bad install it should fix the problem. Remember to select the Note 4 email.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DanGerousDroid:
I didn't install any email app. Is that the problem?

Re download? I checked the md5 before the install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
No, I was responding to another issue. You should be OK without the email app.

No Wifi...tried many fixes..Help please!

Hello all! I need some help

I was previously on rls15 (I think) and just upgraded to rls19. I followed all of the steps outlined in the OP/Surge's post/etc and everything seems to be working great except for a few issues: I have no wifi (I do have mobile data), I have that annoying "+" in front of all of my phone numbers making them appear international (it even adds "+1" in front of my voicemail so I had to manually reconfigure it), and I have no camera or speakerphone (did apply 4.4.2 patch from my-blue-snog-box which got my hard keys working but nothing else, both stock and google camera will load, then stop working, and now they won't even load - just gives me a black screen when I click on either)

My main issue right now is the wifi. I have tried many fixes...I have flashed a bunch of ATT modules in Safestrap (I almost flashed the jfltevzw-NC5-modules but realized it was for verizon!), I tried the bypasslkm.zip, I tried multiple apps, and I am about to start flashing modems in odin from the "[FIX TESTED AND WORKING!] 4.2.2,4.3 AND 4.4.2!!! WIFI, GPS, IMEI & Baseband repair" thread, but I wanted to make sure I'm doing it right. I've already installed this ROM three times due to some other issues so I'm hoping to not have to flash it all over again!

Do I need to switch my baseband to something other than NC9? Will this require a complete wipe/reinstall of hyperdrive?

Will flashing modem files in Odin cause any other problems?

Any other advice on the camera/speakerphone/"+" in phone issues?

Sorry if these questions have been answered, I have been at this for 5+ days and been trying to find a fix all over these forums...

Basic info

Phone: Galaxy S4 Active on ATT (but model number in stats is I337)

Android Version: 4.4.2

Baseband: I537UCUCNC9

Kernel version: 3.4.0-987011 dpi@SWDD5616 #1

Safestrap v 3.73

So looking in aroma to reflash my email app from s5 to note 4 app and I noticed I don't have it. I have a s4 email app and when I flashed it I got email app has crash spammed until I restored to a previous version.

Also I have the s5 inverted messaging app and the times and dates are hard to read on the actual messages. How can I change the text color for them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkoyskip:
I have never used AT&T but the installation instructions don't mention installing any modules. Did you originally install without modules or have you installed them each time? If you have installed modules this could be your problem.

Only asking because you did not mention your installation process. Either way I recommend:

Perform a FULL wipe (I545VRUFNC5 Factory and No-Wipe Odin tars)

Make a Nandroid backup after this so you can revert back to it each time it doesn't work (hopefully you won't need this).

Many are impatient - make sure to wait 10 minutes (I wait 15-20 myself) before messing with the GS4

I have posted this many times already:

Of course you don't need to install any modules though.

Good luck.:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Sorry, apologies, my mistake. The Note 4 email app is in a different Rom. You must either choose S4 or S5 email app in the HD Aroma.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Daeo:
No problem. I've tried three times now to flash the s4 email app over the s5. All it does is crash the email app constantly when I enter the home screen. Might be time for a fresh flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppermintkitty:
Thank you very much for the reply. I apologize that I left some details out.

I installed the ROM exactly as described for Safestrap users (as my bootloader is locked), without flashing anything after the ROM except the S4 Active patch ( for hard key fix, also supposedly for camera, & wifi) & SuperSU to keep root. It was only after I let the ROM settle for a full day that I noticed wifi would not even toggle on and started searching for a solution. It was only then I flashed modules and modems to try and fix the issue.

The information you supplied is for the I545, and my phone is the I537 (AT&T S4 Active) (although my information states it is an I337 [AT&T S4]). I'm guessing I want to stick with the update for the I537?

It sounds like my best bet it so just try the whole process over again though, and see if I can identify the problem from the steps in the OP. I will post again with results!

Thank you again for your help, I truly appreciate the help.

Anyone have success using OpenVPN with RLS19?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Daeo:
So I got everything working after fixing the email issue, thanks by the way. All I need now is to fix the white text on the grey button background. When hitting power menu, restart, selecting any option and getting the pop up. Those buttons that say cancel or accept are grey with white text and very hard to read. I've tried every setting that made sense in the color section of hyperdrive tweaks with no luck. If anyone has fixed this please share, thanks again guys for the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Firemedic:
Go into settings>hyperdrive tweaks>colors>power menu icons color and make it transparent. That will take care of it.

That is for the icons. I was talking about the buttons to accept or cancel. Uploaded a pic of what I was referring to.

Wifi won't turn on

Latest update to my "no wifi" issue. I started over from the beginning:

Here is what I did

1) Used Sunderwear's method with PwnedKitKat to upgrade to 4.4.2 (Since Surge's method is for Verizon and I'm on AT&T, did try that method before realizing but it bootlooped)

-Wifi did NOT work after switching to 4.3 & ML2 bootloader

-Wifi WORKING on 4.4.2, NC9 bootloader

2) Followed safestrap install instructions:

Problem?: after installing ROM I had no choice but to reboot (phone actually shut off when I tried to say "no" to the reboot), so immediately went back into recovery and flashed SuperSU before phone actually started up

I then had to enter correct APN for AT&T Mobile Data, but my wifi STILL is not working. I cannot even toggle it on, it slides to ON but immediately slides back to OFF

Could someone PLEASE help me out??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Telemachus:
RLS13 states that is has:

"-Change End Call Delay Time"

Under hyperdrive tweaks.

I don't see it on the RLS18. I have not yet upgraded to RLS19. Can anyone tell me if it still exists?

There is a kernel in the installation which it says is for safestrap users, and contains the files for wifi. That is the one I installed, and all is well here..

cerberus on 18.1

has anyone had any difficulty with the cerberus app? when i send a track command from a browser, the GPS icon immediately appears in my phone's status bar, but then the browser says "Problem communicating with your device" which it says is because the phone is not online (clearly false, i get the same error on wifi or 4G). the fact that GPS turns on tells me it is finding the device.

i haven't used the cerberus app in a while, but i had no difficulty on rls 15, only seeing the error now on rls 18.1. since i have a custom rom, i figured i'd check here before reaching out to the app developer.

I typically get this and up to 24 hours of battery life running RLS19 with JuiceDefender, Greenify, and Amplify. I chose the Ktoonz kernel on install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SyncingFeeling:
I had to give up Hyperdrive because I couldn't find a solution to get wifi working reliably on release 19. As others reported, it worked until some point and then stopped working. I tried a couple modem changes, but no joy. I'm posting just to encourage discussion and hopefully a solution will surface. I can't provide logs or other details because I switched ROMs a couple weeks ago, but I continue to follow this thread.

My current alternative, The Google Play Edition ROM 4.4.4 by Danvdh has its own issues with data connections while roaming (i.e. there is no data connection while roaming). Being on the road around the globe all the time, I need both wifi and data roaming to be reliable, and am not sure where to get that now other than a <gasp> stock ROM.

I didn't, and it works fine. I am sure I am missing something, based on the experience of others who have not used that kernel, but I have no Idea what it is. That's what makes this whole thing so squirrily...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thcaddict:
I have re-tried installing this RLS19 about 4 times now, all using different settings in Aroma, ie different kernels. None of them I was able to get WiFi. I tried flashing just kernels with no modules, then tried flashing kernels with modules, none of which have worked, I really like this release and would love to use it as a daily driver, but the lack of wifi is soon to be a deal breaker i think =(

Anyone else have any other suggestions? I am using Safe Strap 3.72, and am on NC5 baseband

I don't use Safestrap and I don't have "slots." I have an MDK bootloader so I flash directly from CWM Recovery. By the way, I also tried a clean re-flash of HD Rls 19 and was able to duplicate the wifi issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
Hard to understand. I'm MDK as well but Wifi works just fine on rls 19 for me. I know that doesn't help your frustration but I remember having this problem a while back. I had erroneously flashed something that was for safestrap and it resulted in that situation. Clean install did not fix it but someone on here told me how to fix it and it worked. Wish I could remember the details but they escape me. If you have time you might search my posts here and the q & a thread and narrow it down.

Anywhere from 2 to 7 hours. I had one that was 21h16m with 31% screen on (about 6.58 hrs) and some others I don't have data on. I stayed taking screenshots but now I'm using a battery monitor to track it. My lowest that I remember was about 8 or 9 hours with a lot of screen time playing games.
