so many files!! which one to download pls help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mindlogiczero:
would there be a decrease or increase in battery in this rom vs's stock verizon rom?

and does isis wallet or google wallet work with it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] black02ss:
Tried to flash this as I have all my other ROM's and the device is in boot loop at the time. I have used Liquid's Rom's in the past and they were FLAWLESS! I am unsure what the issue is at this moment but in the process of restoring the device back to stock and going to try it again. If anyone else has flashed this with success please advise. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] norman1080:
I am itching for this ROM. Didn't see the S4 listed yet on the download web page. Uploading I assume.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] black02ss:
LOL Maybe that is why I am in the process of re-storing my phone. I guess I shouldn't try and flash a rom at 5am still half asleep. HAHAHA

---------- Post added at 07:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 AM ----------

I think the link is in a couple posts down from liquid.

http://bit.ly/12MkJMr

:( Guess I shouldn't have been so quick. I'll give it another try in a hour or so. If you get it installed let us know how it goes. I'll report back once my phone is back up.

---------- Post added at 07:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 AM ----------

Here is the proper ROM list for the Galaxy S4 I do believe guys.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] black02ss:
Alright guys. Phone is back on and liquid smooth is installed and running. I will update the thread as I test it out. :) This rom was my absolute favorite on my SIII and can't wait to see what it does. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
yes!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
It's running amazingly well for me. Love liquid!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] black02ss:
Still getting used to it, how do I make it so the main button at the bottom takes me back to the home screen? I can't seem to figure it out at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Mine did that without messing with the settings at all. But it would be under interface - hardware keys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
crap... stuck in a boot loop and the phone wont even turn on. anyone have suggestions? i may have flashed the wrong file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Get your USB cord out and start restoring. Via whatever method you want. If you can get to recovery just restore your backup. If not then Odin back to stock and start over.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] black02ss:
If you flashed the file from the ROM LIST in the original post, you did exactly what I did and that is for the Galaxy S3 I do believe. You need to look at my post above to get the correct link. I did the same thing. I had to Odin back to the original image file, re-rooted, recovery, then install Liquid. If the original post isn't fixed soon I see more users doing the same as us unfortunately. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
thanks dubsy. ive got it out and so far ive got the no wipe downloading... 3 hours left for it to finish!

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

all i saw was liquidsmooth and i got flash happy!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NotoriousNeo:
Anyone try pairing the phone to their car to stream music? I notice when I do the music does stream but no information about the track does. It basically says unavailable for the artist, song, and album art. Not world-shattering, but about the only other quirk I've noticed so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JGoldz75:
Just wondering if there's something in settings that i'm not noticing...

But first I should explain what i'm looking for. Essentially I want a ROM that looks and feels like CM 10.1, but that has the functionality of Panaroid. So I would like the white themed Messages apk, and the regular phone icons, and no dark themes. I've tried to download themes from the Play store but they just don't seem to work well. For example, I got my messages icon back to the regular green color, but when I actually go into the messages its still dark themed. Phone is still a blue color. Any ideas on how I can achieve what I want to acheive?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
You can change the messaging colors in the settings. There's no "one click" theme for light or dark, rather, an array of individual options for every visual element of messaging. Takes about 5 minutes to mimic a "light" theme.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JGoldz75:
Thanks. I'm also having a problem installing Titanium backup from SD card. Any ideas? Cancel button works but install button won't do anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revolt1:
hey liquid cm fixed the GPS issue and added some sound fixes will you be adding this on the next update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nghtrain88:
I had this same problem. Seems to be related to Halo. I had to double tap it and move it up to the trash to disable it from the screen and then my apps installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spiceditup:
Thank you, I almost thought about going back to touchwiz base rom because i couldn't install any apks. Disabling the Halo feature made it work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
I was running this Rom for a couple of days and it was nice and smooth...the reason I had to go back to tw was because I kept losing data and my data was getting stuck on 3g
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] largeselection:
agreed. I love liquid roms I've used them on a bunch of devices and they've always been the best for me for battery life, stability, and speed. I was on this one for a week or so too but I had the same issues with data. Wouldn't find and/or connect to wifi networks, would disable data, would stay stuck on 3g, I had to toggle airplane mode or reboot on occasion to restore it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Forgetfull:
You guys are the best, from the thunderbolt to the s4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nemock:
Is anyone else having an issue where the wifi will be on, but not connect to your network, and then when you go into the settings app all you get is a black screen and it force closes out? It's happened to me 5 times in the last 3 days since I installed this.

---------- Post added at 06:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 AM ----------

It just now before my eyes killed the wifi connection, and is stuck on a black screen trying to load in the settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brasewel:
My GPS is not locking. It just says searching for GPS even if I drive around a little.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
uncheck " wifi and mobile network location" in location settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brasewel:
Oh wow thanks man. That did the trick. Instant lock from my apartment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
Has anyone found how to address the issue of notification sounds?

All the custom notification tones I've set for different apps just revert to the default notification sound.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nemock:
Still having this issue, and it happened again last night. Someone else has to be having he same problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mofoliar:
I just flashed to this rom, sweet rom! I just curious if there was a setting or like preview when the phone rings or sms? I just got a call, it shows in call log but did not display on the screen or ring?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kgeier82:
Does this ROM support AVRCP1.3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
So what's the deal? Is this the official developer support thread or can we go somewhere else for that?

From what I've been reading, I'm taking away 2 things:

1) Everyone seems to love thus ROM including myself.

2) Everyone including myself has one or two significant bugs that need addressing.

:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
This is the only official support thread. He responds more on his twitter if you have any questions. He usually responds to whatever questions people have. Also, from what I've read a new release may be out soon ... No nightlys for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
Cool. Thanks for the update. I look forward to another iteration.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
Has anyone had any issues with using the IR blaster and a third party app with this ROM?

I downloaded an app called "Smart IR Remote..." By Color Tiger for $10 and in couldn't get it to work on any of my devices. The dev said that the ROM may not have included drivers from the stock TW interface to enable the IR functionality.

Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
Derp

Nothing to see here :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NotoriousNeo:
Any way to disable the icon to the left of the quick settings? I never use it and I couldn't find anything in the settings. Is it an app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igdawgi:
Anyone have issues calling out sometimes. It doesn't even initiate dialing; itll just end the call and say call lost.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pchpoochie:
That's icons is for halo and no I don't think u can delete it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NotoriousNeo:
I've had this happen in general either with stock software or ROMs. Aside from a slight lag from when I push the power button when the screen is off to when it actually turns on, this ROM is pretty flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] samstheman42:
Can you explain how you did this or where I can go for directions? I got a little flash happy and downloaded the wrong zip. After "Installing" (which took literally like 3 seconds) and being in complete disbelief at how quickly that went, I figured, well, if something got corrupted I can just go into recovery and restore it.

And now, here I am with a phone that, after I hold down the power button to turn it on, just buzzes every few seconds like it's stuck in a really nasty boot loop.

Also, dunno how much this might ruin things, but I run Ubuntu on my computer rather than Windows, so I'm guessing I may need to pull out an old lap top or something to make this work.

Desperate for help :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igdawgi:
I agree.. Its a great ROM. Was wondering with the phone issue. GFs stock non rooted hasn't had that issue.

Stars with calling someone then hanging up. Immediately trying to call again either to the same person or someone else; it'll show like it is calling them immediately ends and says call lost. I'll post a pic if I can get a screen shot

Thanks.. And awesome ROM!

Should we be deleting data and cache before flashing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
Hey guys thinking about trying dinner stock Android. Are there any bugs? I remember reading something about gps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
You may dirty flash at your own risk. Any issues then you know what to do :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
Is anyone else having issues with the Home button not actually going home or waking up the phone? I have it set to do that and i've rebooted to no avail
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] samstheman42:
is the whole zip file for the rom really only ~133 mb?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mademan420:
yep but u still will need to flash GAPPS:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] samstheman42:
Well this is a good sign :)

Got it to boot up THIS time, lol. Nearly had a heart attack last night when I got stuck in that boot loop! So glad to have this community here to help when I screw things up so badly, lol.

Just sitting at the liquid smooth boot animation right now waiting for it to boot up for the first time, then away we go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
You do have the correct gapps installed right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
nope i sure don't!

I'm flashing 2.8 at the moment and will flash gapps too and see what happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] samstheman42:
anybody else experienced a rather long boot time on initial boot? I'm still sitting here, nearly 10 min later with the LiquidSmooth boot animation just replaying over and over...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
for anyone who might have run both, what are the differences between this and Carbon?

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] djj624:
Running very smooth here. Excellent work. I'll be sending a donation on pay day!

Guys you should really donate something to liquid. He is busting his ass to bring us the best he could. I'm one if his testers and we try to run the Rom through the ringer to get it as near perfect as possible, but every phone reacts different. Again liquid is constantly building and fixing things we tell him are broke, so a little something is greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dreamsti:
Agreed!

And the IR blaster is working in 2.8 :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] samstheman42:
I'm still getting everything loaded onto my phone to get it setup/tweaked the way that I like it. Barring any major issues, I'll be sending a donation along in the next couple of days. I always like to support good devs that put out solid finished projects!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dougmod:
Anyone having data issues? I had some on CM10.1 and they seem to have carried over. My 4g signal shows full bars with -80dbm which is really great, BUT my throughput is maybe 300Kbps per second, upload is sub 100. I constantly have websites fail to load or apps say data connection is lost. Could this have something to do with my SIM or I remember on the s3 i needed to reprovision my sim card to fix some signal issues. Anyone else noticing funky stuff happening? This is all on clean installs, wiping everything using TWRP 2.5.02. Unless there is a newer version and this stuff isnt really getting wiped or fixing permissions? cause when i hit fix permissions, it almost finishes immediately, doesnt seem like it does much
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
Anyone have problems getting the unread notification on the exchange email app? Gmail works great, but i need it on both. Can't get it to work in Nova/Tesla settings.

2.8 is solid though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Still looking for a comparison to carbon. Anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Carbon is based off Liquid so you really can't separate them in terms of performance, stability, or battery. Carbon frequently update their builds through nightlies while Liquid is more focused on the official/stable release side. Both are also highly packed with features/customizations, which are roughly about the same with the exception of a few small ones. One ROM has a few additional features while the other doesn't. Just don't ask me what those are lol. Haven't flashed Carbon in well over a month now. I personally prefer either Liquidsmooth or Slimroms. I tend to switch between the 2 a lot. They are the top 2 AOSP ROMS in my opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
Carbon isn't based off of Liquid.

Sent from my Galaxy S4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Hmm...Liquid said it was.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Not literally speaking. They're based solely off of AOSP sources but I meant they used Liquidsmooth's branches, framework, etc.. So it is SOMEWHAT based off Liquidsmooth. Liquid0624 himself even sees Carbon as being based off his work lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
That's what I wanted to hear :) I know they pull stuff from everywhere.

Anyone have a kernel recommended for this ROM? Where's Imoseyon these days? :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dougmod:
stock kernel was awful for me. super laggy and system slow downs. i flashed chronic and it is a lot better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liquid0624:
Carbon is based on liquidsmooth & aokp & pa & cm & slimroms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] itsdubai:
After flashing 2.8, I gained like 2-3 bars of more 4g everywhere. I even dirty flashed it and it works great. Just has a few slowdowns sometimes where I have to reboot but other than that it's amazing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pchpoochie:
I saw a few pages back that sum1 DL the new v2.8 and it was 133mb but my DL was only 126mb can any1 confirm to which is right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Neither. The actual size is 127MB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Mine is 126.9mb

2.8 working great so far here.. Strange issue I didn't see in 2.7, if I set up one of my pie control buttons to be a direct dial it launches my Skype app instead.. Wondering if anyone else is seeing direct dial in pie controls or any other pie custom app buttons doing something other than what you intend
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dougmod:
Anyone having RIL issues, like with 3g to 4G hand-off or vice versa
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thanassi44:
I'm having this issue too. Not getting any notifications in the stock email app. I have set it to notify every 15 minutes but it never alerts me. I have to check it manually. Had the same issue in 2.7. Cleared data and cache on the 2.8 flash, same thing. Anyone else have this problem? Seems like the only bug left to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] itsdubai:
I don't know if I have done something wrong but every so often this ROM will slow to a crawl and takes a few reboots to go away. 2.7 didn't seem to have that problem as much. Any insight? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
Loaded up 2.8 last night..love the fact that Halo isn't on by default!

So far so good with everything.

Does anyone know if the audio fixes included microphone over headphones?

Just flashed and got setup!! Seems to be running great!

Edit - I went to update my YouTube app but it keeps saying incompatible file. What's up with that??

Any fix???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Try to clear data in playstore?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
Tried that and it didn't work. I just grabbed it off the web. Weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] largeselection:
Not sure if this is ROM related, but I just installed this today and have been using it with ChronicKernel v1.1 and I have some decent battery drain being caused by "MediaScannerService". I know that's not an uncommon culprit. Any idea how to disable whatever that is so that it stops waking my device?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Developer Options > Mediascanner behavior

Set it to "Do not scan media"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] largeselection:
Ah I did not see that option when I looked through. I'll change that and see if that does the trick. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nghtrain88:
Doesn't that option control media scanning only when the phone is booted up?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Ah yes.. Thanks for clarifying. Disabling it on boot will certainly mame a difference but once it's activated it will start running again so here's an app that will completely kill the service.

http://db.tt/GulTutmo
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
is there any downside to killing the service?

I downloaded this rom yesterday and threw newest chronic kernel on today and my phone is awesome.

I miss the tw camera a little but this rom flies.

Everybody seems to be losing their minds in the other threads when they should be paying more attention to this rom.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NotoriousNeo:
Yeah ran across this particular issue myself. Wasn't what I thought it was because like you it happened with every call. Dialed and hung up over and over. Finall I just called the test number for Verizon #832 and my voicemail by holding down the 1 key on the keypad and it started working again.

Bet a reboot would've done it too. This happened with 2.7 though. Haven't had that crop up with 2.8 yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igdawgi:
It happened last night on 2.8. I did a dirty flash.. But other than that.. Great ROM... A quick reboot fixes this. The only thing I'm afraid of is if there was an emergency and the call cannot go out. But, doubt it'll be an issue for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinert012:
I love this ROM, definitely my favorite one here so far and i've tried them all. This is my only small complaint.

I have my status bar set to transparent in the settings but on my lock screen it looks like this, also nova settings for this option are also gone. Any way to get the nova settings back for transparent status bar or make it so it matches the lock screen color?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Change the status bar transparency mode to "on launcher".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igdawgi:
I wiped everything and installed 2.8, Gapps, KT Kernal. Wiped cache and Dalvik. It gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S4. I can reboot into recovery and reflash 2.7. Not a problem. Anybody have problems here with this? I did dirty flash 2.8 over and it was working fine; but battery life did not last as long as it normally does; so I decided to wipe and start over again. Still stuck at Samsung Galaxy S4. Will reflash 2.7 in the mean time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NotoriousNeo:
So 2.8 has been very unreliable with Bluetooth streaming for me. Anyone else experiencing frequent disconnects and such?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
This method will work

1) Full wipe (System, Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache)

2) Flash ROM

3) Flash gapps

4) Reboot

5) Let phone sit for a minute

6) Shutdown (Hold power key about 10sec)

7) Boot into recovery

8) Factory Reset

9) Reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
I've been on this for a couple of days now and I think I can safely say it's my favorite.

I've tried all of the tw roms and I keep trying them because I can't control my flash addiction.

The GPS had been a deal breaker for me and now I think it's faster than on tw.

I do miss the tw camera a little, but I can live.

The only issue I've had in 2 days happened yesterday and has been mentioned at least once.

It was the calling issue. All of a sudden I went to call my wife and it kept disconnecting. I tried 10 times and it wouldn't work. I finally rebooted and haven't had it happen again. Since I'm not the only one this happened to, I believe it to be a rom issue. I always flash clean and set up from scratch.

Again, it only happened once and was easily fixable, but still a minor problem.

Please give your opinion or advise.

Thanks in advance and thanks again for a terrific rom. I don't understand why more people aren't jumping on this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] emplox:
Everything has been great with this ROM so far with the exception of HALO. When I enabled it and get notifications it lags my phone like crazy the entire time. Does this happen to anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Nope. Could be due to your current kernel tunings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nghtrain88:
The downside to killing the service would be that when you boot your phone it won't scan for media. If you were to copy a bunch of songs/photos/etc to your phone they might not get picked up by the applications (music player/gallery/etc) until you manually scan the device again.
