Ok, bout to get my flash on! Love It. Thanks for this new build, dev. Is it just me or are these animations on this build like way smoother. Na, I don't think it's just me...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
thanks man for beta testing !! ya, does seem smoother.. if i odexed it, it would be even nicer.. :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] obriane217:
No prob. Anytime. Even nicer than this, don't no how much nicer you could get it. Odexed would be sweet, I'm not a big themer myself anyway but making two versions for each build would be a lot of work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jerrah:
downloaded the rom and the addons in less then 10 mins nice and fasttt. installing now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] obriane217:
Also just noticed when flashing the att network icons it most also change the notification toggles because after flash I have them all but Wifi Hotspot toggle that was there before.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
wanna beta it :p .. kiss sleeping goodbye you have now enetered my world lol..

:good: let me know what you think!!

ya its the buildprop change... gotta love being an att user :good: might be able to change it in the framework sorta how it was done with vzw s3, easy fix dont use the att network icons, being lazy has it benefits :)

on a side note, framework mod I dont think would do it, the toggle entry in xml isnt the issue, i'll do some research
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jerrah:
CRT addon coming? or i can use the old one or did i miss it somewhere?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] m0bstr:
is there anyway to disable the keyboard notification and change the battery icon with one that tells the percentage?? like the CM gear battery icon?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
i'll have to add it forgot all about it

I have someone working on mods like that.. stay tuned!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] obriane217:
Sure will test, curious about it myself. Funny you said that I've already went back to the default because I've actually came to like it & the few small changes that it does have over the att build prop change. So ya, all good now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
sounds good, same thing for me got used to it now i prefer it :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] balpreetsaini:
Just went from 1.3 to 3.0. I didn't think it would be possible but this rom feels even faster. Definitely worth restoring data:p

How to install GE /Safestrap beta

Surely. And thanks for all of your work. The install instructions are a bit sparse though.. can you clarify if a kernel still needs to be installed on the beta?

You mentioned that the MK2 module is included..

So.. install the GE safestrap beta into a safestrap slot.. then flash a kernel + flash kernel fix (for Canadian phones). Is that right?

.

.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Venom0642:
Don't think you have to flash any kernels since modules are included in the rom, But i could be wrong.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] trueking7:
Sweet... I'll take wanam over lte icons + iB4STiD can worry about kitkat TW and not making betas (sorry mate). Also, it makes me wonder if maybe all the betas you made to fix icons would've worked had xposed not been installed.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fffft:
Well that clears everything up then!

Just trying to eliminate basic install errors so that we can concentrate on the actual beta itself. Thx

:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
Wipe, then flash the ROM .. Using ss you can't flash kernels .. No need to flash the modules its built in

Actually I I have the updater script wipe cache and dalvik so you may not need to .. Since I don't use ss I'm not an expert on the recovery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] risx:
worked for me, using the following steps with philz recovery:

1. clean install for new rom

2. install 18.2

3. install kt kernel

4. install kt kernel shop

5. wipe cache

6. reboot

7. initial setup

8. reboot in recovery and flash beta 6

9. reboot and see lte icon

gonna keep trying to see if wanam reverts the icon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
yup... its xposed ..has to be
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
lol... im getting downlods of the safestrap beta.. but no feedback ... not good ...

edit

which i guess = to no comments no issues :p

edit again

unless after flashing said beta.. they were sucked into some form of a vortex .. which in that case i understand .. otherwise i do not

edit again again

my lack of sleep makes me ponder ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
wait a sec... if ur using a 1337m u have an unlocked bootloader u dont need to flash the safestrap version .. just follow the Canadian install guide.. didnt catch that im half a sleep :(

edit..

ok sleep take 5 ... back later guys & gals

Encryption - is it possible?

I've been giving some serious thought to encrypting my Galaxy S4 ATT (due to work stuff) and wanted to ask the forum about good/bad experiences.

Is it even possible to encrypt a custom ROM with a locked bootloader?

Thanks...

Guys I might pull safe strap beta .. I'm getting people downloading it .. But only one person have given me feedback

If feedback doesn't start coming in .. I'm going to have to discontinue this safe strap idea .. Sorry guys
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phobia09:
I'm using safestrap 3.71 on mk2 and I have been attempting to download the beta, I seem to have problems with the download itself (First dl attempt the file size was only ~585 MB). Lately I've been having issues with all downloads, though, perhaps its filehost. I'm gonna keep trying and once I get something going I'll give you some feedback.

Hello GoldenEye users. I'm coming from beanstalk ROM so I'm new to this ROM. I flashed thia rom as instructed and set it up. However, I flashed the slimf4st add on without removing the Samsung apks. Will this affect performance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] s0ulreaver:
The slimf4st add-on's purpose is to remove most of the unneeded Samsung apps.

So at least in theory your phone should be faster after.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Solace50:
is your adblocking done via host file?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phobia09:
Downloaded from another mirror and it went blazing fast and got the full 1.4gb file. Deleted old rom slot 1, created new. Flashed rom, no boot (no boot animation at all, would just reboot into safestrap menu). Wiped, and flashed again. Same result. I am going to re-download and try again just to cover the bases. I'd give you a log if I knew how to do so, will report back here. Thanks for your hard work, I appreciate it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] guut13:
Thanks, but was not able to get it working on stock slot.

Running ss3.71 on MK2. Did full wipe (everything system, data, cache, and dalvik). Then installed GE-XXUEML6-SAFESTRAP-18.2.zip

Trying again now and will try and pull logs. Would those logs be helpful to you?

By didn't work, I mean... install finished. rebooted, saw the galaxy s4 logo, saw the safestrap menu, then it rebooted and continued the cycle. I saw this before on another rom when the install tried to install the kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] crazy_dr0id:
I use i337m Rogers wireless unlocked on koodo network. I recommend using cwm based recoveries, never had a problem. There's a link in the first post to a modified one in flashable zip format. Everything that follows is based on cwm recovery, I know TWRP can be temperamental if you format the wrong partitions.

K so after you flash cwm based recovery and are in recovery (no safe strap or Loki doki ever, Canadian models don't need that)... Wipe data/factory reset. Wipe cache, go to advanced wipe dalvic. Go to mounts and storage, format /system, then go in and format /data. If you really want to make sure it's super clean install, format SD card (external). Go back to main screen. Install zip, select ROM v18.2. Make sure it's on root of ext SD card (will need to mount USB and transfer to card if formatted obviously). Once it installs, select install zip, now choose i337m kernel fix. Preferably from root of ext SD card too. If possible tx files by right clicking, copying and pasting (drag and drop used to mess up my txs on old HTC, maybe I'm just paranoid...meh). After kernel fix installs, go back to main screen of recovery and select reboot system (not reboot recovery). If asked about super su binary always select no. Should load up in less than 5 min. If desired after letting device settle a bit reboot back to recovery and install/flash any add ons. I like transparent AccuWeather and silent camera. Boot up, install apps (apks) try not to restore data, sometimes messes things up but not always... Hope it helps :)

*edit: are you using baseband MK6?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hellonasty73:
Pretty mush the same thing here. I am also using 3.71 for MK2. I have downloaded and re-downloaded both version of GE. These were both installed on RAM SLOT-1 Also did Dalvik and Cache, both versions go into boot loop. I was using stock setting when setting up the partition on SS.

I would really like to try this out also. If it works as good as everyone says I would be more than happy to make this my primary partition and forget about everything else.

Thanks for your effort.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phobia09:
Same thing happened after re-downloading. Really hoping that a safestrap version can be successful. Used GE on mf3 and I have yet to find a ROM I like more, thanks a million. I'll keep checking back here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spocko:
Yes, the built-in adblocking is done via host file. There are no special apps/services that are included in the ROM, just the host file. You can edit it manually, or for an easier method, you can use a tool like AdAway.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kevinco1:
I'm also on 3.71/MK2 and tested out all the GE and Infamous ROMs and while most worked for 3.65/MF3, none of them do for MK2.

Every ROM hangs at the loading screen and I can never get it past that. Figuring SafeStrap needs a major update to have the new version work with any 4.3 ROMs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Maesedroid:
SGH-I337 working great 18.2. It tends to get hotter than before flashing. Might other Kernel o baseband will fix it

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Solace50:
ah ok, ill just remove it and keep using adfree or whatever that ancient useful utility was. or does the rom update the hostfile daily?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spocko:
I'm pretty sure there is nothing in the ROM that auto-updates the host file. Feel free to remove/replace the host file with whatever you like.

Hey guys I'm new to flashing Roms and my friend gave me this ROM file to use. The build number says "MDOB 4 BY iB4STiD VLUEMK6". What is MDOB 4 and what is VLUEMK6. Thanx for ur reply, also if I am running a very very old build which build is most stable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Solace50:
also im trying to figure out what discrepencies there are between goldeneye/mdob versions. is this documented somewhere, neither thread has any information. the only thing i can notice is ones based on MDL6 the other MDK6.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Tylorw1:
GOLDENEYE is based on international firmware and MDOB is based off of AT&T firmware releases. International firmware is updated much more often and does not come with AT&T bloat. Both run great though.

Tylorw1

---------- Post added at 04:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 AM ----------

I would suggest having your friend explain the basics to you about ROM flashing. You shouldn't flash unless you are positive about what you are doing. MDOB is the ROM series name and VLUEMK6 is the firmware version. MDOB is based off of AT&T firmware.

I understand latest build for Non Safestrap is not in beta i am assuming it is stable and good to use for daily driver? the only other one i saw was a link below for goldeneye 8.0. im just looking for the most stable way to run your rom. last question, following the canadian instructions on your first post it says to flash the kernel after flashing the rom do i have to flash that kernel or can i just flash ktoosez kernel and will get the same result?

thanks for all your guys help i appreciate it, my questions are soo noob i cant find answers through google for them once again thanks agian.

2. made a new rom slot under slot-1

3. flashed my ss GE 18.2 beta

4. rom booted just fine!!

u sure u dont have a battery issue?... this will be a pita .. but you could try this

backup all images videos music etc from ur external sdcard place on pc.. format ur card with ur s4

bring back ur pics videos tb backup to the sdcard ... test it for a bit

if that doesnt work .. remove ur simcard just in case this way u avoid taking that ota and flash back to amdl via odin.. after flashing to stock is done.. wipe factory reset and wipe cache with stock recovery then reboot.. then root flash custom recovery n try again ..

if that doesnt work call att and get just a replacement battery .. do not i repeat do not send ur device to them .. just replace the battery :good:
