Argh -sorry for asking for help with this - I'm sure I'm doing something very simply incorrectly.

I just tried installing RLS13 and my phone just sits completely black and never actually boots. I've left it for over 30 minutes so far. How long does the first boot take?

I'm running MJ7, rooted, with SafeStrap 3.71. I've never installed a ROM this way before, so I know that either I've not waited long enough or messed something up. I created a new ROM slot. I then wiped, installed RLS13, selecting default Kernel option, then installed the MJ7 Kernel modules from the SafeStrap thread.

When I then tell it to reboot, it goes black and stays that way. Even with the phone plugged in, the charging LED is not even on. Though if I plug it into the computer, the computer knows I've done something, but never shows the phone like it normally would.

If I pull the battery, I can then reboot into SafeStrap and reboot into my Stock rom. I've tried this twice now with the same result.

Am I missing something else I should be installing in the new ROM before or after RLS13?

Thanks for any input you may have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] adavit:
Make sure that your md5 matches on the download of 13. Sounds like the download got corrupted or something. Everything else sounds like you're good to go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] albertdc:
I was about to edit my post to include that information. I did check the MD5 after I downloaded it and it does match. I even checked it on the phone directly from the ExtSDCard to be sure it didn't get messed up transferring over there.

Can there still be a bad download with a matching MD5?

I can try to download again on my computer and copy it over instead of downloading on the phone...

There are some issues with the ROM slot. It's best to delete (not just deactivate) the ROM slot and recreate it, then flash. I flashed on the stock slot and it's running great.

Xposed.

How do you make the xposed app to show up in your drawer? I installed it from the hyperdrive tweaks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] WordsworthESP:
I'm guessing by reset he means reboot. Clear the CACHE for your dialer, instead of force stopping. And of course, make sure you've deleted any voicemails.

Sbreen! You did it again! Flashed RLS10 and continued with you ever since. This RLS13 is AMAZING! Thank you!

One question.... is there a way we can get the 5X4 home screen back? I loved that on 10.2. Or did I miss that option in aroma?

BTW - No matter your answer, Friday is pay day and you've got a donation heading your way!

To those asking about the Google accounts issue; I've had zero issues on RLS13 running the stock kernel. Haven't tried any of the custom kernels to see if it changes yet.

My post is on themes. I want a dark theme, but I don't like the red, and the white 1914 is decent, but kind of bland. I wish the hyper blue theme was still available because I was happy with it. The downloadable themes on hyperdrive hub are pretty good, but don't theme enough things. I wish there were a theme with black, grey, and orange. Kind of a dark MIUI look. I didn't mind the blackitout flashable theme, but it creates problems with the AOSP sms app. Does anyone have any help on full dark themes?

Another thing is the 8sms, Maybe in future builds give us the option between 8sms and the old aosp sms app, I can't seem to get tablet talk to work with 8sms installed

I can second this experience with RSL4. The exact same thing happened to me on a particular download of Synergy. Didn't matter if the MD5 matched or not, it was a botched download, Everyone was having a ***** of a time downloading that rom too. It cant be a coincidence. These hosting sites are getting to be a bit ridiculous. I'd keep downloading, keep flashing, it's what I did.

yep, that's the way it should work but not here for some reason. it it apk based? perhaps i accidentally lost functionality when i was deleting bloatware?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spikelangelo:
I do not think this is correct. The smart stay and the other touch wiz features are app dependent, by which I mean they only work with some apps. This has been my experience with not only this ROM but also stock without root and stock rooted. If you have the eyeball enabled in the notification bar it will turn white if it's working with a particular app. On the other hand if you wear glasses like my dad, it never seems to work. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dj_blueshift:
nah it definitely worked with the launcher/lockscreen. i remember showing it off in action on the lockscreen to people when i first got it. gonna try a few things here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dennisg34:
Sorry to keep asking this, but just lookinh for the answer

It is supposed to (after install amd reboot) NOT do the out-of-the-box setup installation?? Ya know, like select language, back up contacts, sign into gmail and samsung etc etc ??

Every other rom I installed (clean rom snd synergy) both did upon reboot. Thanks guys!

Anyone who experiencing major lag? I removed Xposed and am otherwise hyper-stock. I noticed in my CPU times that it was spending the majority of its time at 1458 or 1672 and only 1% at max (despite running benchmarks). I flashed KT's latest kernel and enabled overclocking, pushed it to 1998mhz and put the gov on Performance ... Still locking out at 1672. Anyone have any ideas? The lag was bad before I flashed the new kernel .. And I also tried disabling the force GPU option in Dev settings. *smh*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
Do I have to re-flash the additional features like the volume if I update to 4.0?

And JUST TO be 100% clear (because so many people told me differently), I wipe system and factory reset THEN update then wipe caches right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zeroxg4:
Correct. It is NOT supposed to (on this ROM).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mills23:
I had to uninstall a bunch of apps just to make room for a back up so I can flash this ROM. I am new at this so please bear with me. When I download this ROM it goes to my SD card correct?? So when I wipe I will have room for this version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] golfinglenn:
I had to reflash volume mod and any others not included like themes or kernals you like will have to be flashed post rom install.

In TWRP, choose wipe, Swipe to Factory Reset 3 times, install rom from sd card, then wipe cache and dalvik a couple of times, then reboot. I also let phone sit for 10 minutes after you get the first screen after boot up (like when it is looking for signal, etc). just to give everything time to load and settle down before restoring apps and such.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
Depending on your settings it probably defaults to downloading into internal storage. When you wipe for flashing a rom your internal and external memory storage are not touched. So any pics you have, downloads, or other media are left untouched. If you have an SD card you can back up to it so your internal storage has more space for apps.

I can second all of these issues. I never use the toggles for these types of things, so that can't be it. To make sure it just wasn't an app issue, I tried the built in "try" options in the settings and the device was unable to register my eyes. I also tried adjusting the "speed" on smart-scroll and it would not work.

I haven't tried motion control yet, that's next.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] albertdc:
Thanks for the help and ideas.

I've tried again with no success. I deleted the ROM slot and recreated it as suggested by Wordsworth. I then tried installing a download that came off my computer (again, after checking MD5 on the phone). Still no go.

I had copied the download to my SD Card - is that the issue? I realized last time that I can access the phone internal memory. So, I'll be trying again later tonight with another download from one of the mirror and then putting it on the internal memory. Changing two variables at once, but I'm more interested in getting it to work than experimenting. ;)

About how long should that initial first boot take? 10 minutes? 20? At what time point can I give up?

Thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] albertdc:
I am not an avid ROM flasher and the thought of flashing over the stock rom slot scared me. Thank you for the instructions.

I may not be understanding the extent of the wipe, but if I do a full wipe in the stock slot, does SafeStrap survive? So if the bootup after the ROM instal doesn't work, when I pull the battery and turn it on, it will still boot to SafeStrap?

If my current attempt fails, I may give that a shot in the future. I'm running out of time to mess with this tonight.

Xposed...

Just a personal observation.

I fell in love with xposed and all of the potions available using the different modules, it is an awesome mod.

But...

With all of the tweaks Scott had made available in this rom there are only a few things I can't do.

The speed difference is very noticeable between using xposed and not using xposed. Especially in boot time.

To me its enough of a difference to run the rom without it.

Just wanted to put my .02cents in to this.

I've never had a problem flashing any rom on phones or tablets. Been doing this since the Droid X.

I've never had a real problem with any ROM I've flashed unless I took a shortcut that cost me a whole bunch more time than if I did as instructed in the first place. The first rule of thumb is to read and understand what your doing. Avoid all shortcuts to maximize rom stability.

Now with that said everything works for me just great. On rls 12 I only lost Google accounts twice in a months time, once was my doing.

I'm not getting any FC's and Xposed along with Wanam work just fine for me. I'm installed via SS on MJ7 and have flashed the MK2 modem.

When I installed I wiped data, cache & dalvik in recovery once again during the installation as prompted and again after the installation and flash of the modules and modem.

My experience suggests that if you're having a problem, with the exception of know issues like AOSP messenger, you did not take the time to verify a correct MD5 on the download, did not take the time to do a clean install by wiping or are trying to get away with dirty shortcuts like restoring data when you know it is ill advised.

Last but not least there is no reason to worry about flashing to stock side. The only reason to not flash to stock side is because you want to dual boot. To be honest having a stock Samsung Twiz seems like a waste of space to me unless you have a real need like compatibility with other Samsung products. You really can't break it. There are two flashable stock recoveries one that won't destroy user data and one to be used in emergency that will destoy user data but will recover any device that is not suffering from a hardware defect.

Remember to make backups, and don't take shortcuts then come here and blame the Dev for issue's that arise from these bad practices. Those of us with experience can tell when you post certain issues know it is because you have taken a shortcut. These problems we have encountered over the years when we thought we could take those same shortcuts.

it seems like the app switcher treats every Steam friend chat like a whole new steam process, I had 10 or so steam windows that were all the same exact thing. Only way to make them all all condense back into one is to open the app from the drawer again. Not sure how I would go about giving a log of that, but I deleted the app and reinstalled it and same thing, so I assume its replicable.
