No offense taken I know exactly what you mean, I want to just go to crowded places so people will look at me weird and ask about it :P

If bluetooth tethering isn't super complicated maybe it could be added next release so I can use the awsomeness still? I hate TW so much :( if you're too busy like I said I really understand.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
While I have the systemui and framework decompiled I'll look for the tether settings. No promises but if it's quick I'll throw it in for you.

Ha! 4.3 has it. I'll try to tear the lines out and patch them into 4.2.2 when I get the chance.

4.3 is the sh!t

Just need to get the kernel built. If that works out then it'll be good to go/release.

I got sidetracked tonight by 4.3. I didn't have anything else with me to work on anyway so it's all good.

You might want to note that 4.3 is AOSP and has no tw framework but still benches this...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xonone:
Not half bad. 4.3 still have ir blaster support or does the lack of tw framework disabled it?

Update on the battery images I posted about a few days ago. Making a percentage battery from scratch takes A LONG TIME . . I have all 103 pngs built, just have add some transparent pixels to them for spacing purposes (easier for me to add after images are made). Already have the XML edits done, just need to do the finishing touches to the pngs and get systemUI to compile. Only thing is the time. I hope to get a working percentage battery up by tomorrow evening. Out of town for work so I am working even longer hours then normal so I can get home sooner.

Maybe I missed this in the 100 some pages, does anyone have email apks that patch the security bypass for exchange on this rom? The 4.2.x installer I tried from another thread for AOSP roms did not work. Exchange keeps crashing when trying to setup the account
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
Since this is TouchWiz-based, I'd extract or find one from a TW ROM and give it a try.

Yeah, me either.

Never played kernel dev before. Surprisingly, everything with the kernel went smoothly. But still have the com.android.phone FCing constantly :rollseyes:

And I was wicked proud of my new updater script :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] juanzho11:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DigitalDementia:
So this is TW based right? So if I'm flashing a new kernel it should be one for TW right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Yeah it's TW based. Chronic-rc1-tw, faux, or ktoonsez are all kernels that should work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
Yes, it comes pre-packaged with KT kernel, but you can flash another TW kernel if you want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DigitalDementia:
Hey that's not bad for a first attempt, maybe one of the other devs would be willing to pitch in?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jkbane:
Disregard my question...

I was trying it out and I simply had to place the sticker lower.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I'd be more than happy to work with someone else on it. Strangely enough, I think my kernel is good. Something else is causing the hangups. I can get the FCs to stop by disabling all phone related services/apps.

I need to log the output while it's going crazy.

The kernel is a mashup of Treken's Chaos kernel(it was readily available since I was playing with chaos) and the 9505 4.3 kernel. The 4.3 ramdisk may be the issue itself, but if that's the case I'm in WAY over my head. I know how to read all the files in the ramdisk but I wouldn't know where to start to modify them to be specific to a carrier.

Edit: FRACK! Dubbsy, you maxed out my dropbox LOL I even deleted a ton of stuff 2 days ago, but I only have like 5.5 gb and have a bunch of other projects stored on there too. Any ideas on getting extra storage? I don't really want to pay for more storage . .

I like dropbox for active shared projects because you can grant read/write access to multiple users and if using the desktop app it will toast you the changes on the fly. Like if hlx was watching today his toast would have been going nuts. Unfortunately it uses both parties space which stinks...

I have to toggle data every time I boot to get data, but the bars work, dBm is reporting correctly in settings, and Verizon is correctly displayed in notifications and the lockscreen. Speedtest reports data is coming in around previous tests.

4.7 deodexed has randomly rebooted several times since flashing it two days ago. I don't know what the culprit is because it's happening randomly. I didn't have any reboot issues with 4.6.

Is there a way to get dropbox to give you 50gb extra storage forever, or are they only temporary boosts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hlxanthus:
The reboots is due to the kernel, the KT latest. Flash chronic or faux or older KT version. That will fix you

Best way to flash new ROMs easily

Hi again,

So I was excited to flash 4.7 when it first came out, but since then I have been having tons of random reboots and freezes. I see that you're already fixing that stuff, but the problem is that after a full wipe and fresh ROM install, it takes me about 3 hours to setup everything on my phone (re-downloading all apps from Play store, logging into all of them, adjusting settings, etc). On several occasions, I've also gotten 920 errors on the Play Store, making the whole process even more painful and slow. I'm sure everyone here has a similar predicament with complex setups on our handsets. So how do we easily and quickly swap in new roms without having to invest all that time in re-configuring everything?

I do Nandroid backups just in case, but those obviously restore the full image including the old rom. I also have Titanium backup installed - is that the way to go? Will a full restore of apps and settings and data from Titanium backup get me back up and running? Will I still need to re-login to all my apps? Will it remember default app preferences and things like that?

I left my iPhone because I wanted the flexibility and customization of Android, but I forget how much of a time-suck it can be. How do I stay up-to-date with the most recent builds, but not lose a night every time something new comes out?

And sorry if the answer here is obvious. I'm sure this comes up all the time... But any tips would be helpful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loldi:
Had the same problem you did, unfortunately a full wipe was the only remedy. I highly suggest using Titanium Backup to backup your apps and app preferences. I use the dropbox/google drive syncs to make sure the backups can't be erased from my phone in case I have to do a format. Using TiBu to restore your apps is a million times faster than re-downloading everything from the playstore. It takes about 10-15 minutes for me to completely put my phone back to normal. For backing up text messages I highly recommend using SMS Backup and Restore (just make sure you make the backup directory on your external SD card).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
After doing a clean install on a new rom I let it sit at least 5 mins before touching the screen to let the kernel set up shop. After I start set up and login I go straight to play store and stop any apps from installing. Immediately download tb and then batch/ restore apps only(no data) . usually never have any issues, but thats just me :)

Edit: btw, yes you'll have to login your apps again because restoring data w/ apps cause system malfunctioning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ryno77:
Really dumb question.......I flashed the pure google v3 and it comes with ktoonz kernel and I would like to change it to the stock kernel. I found the file for the stock kernel, flashed and wiped cache and delvik.....said successful but I still have ktoonz. What am I missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
To the guy asking about setup. Use an app backup tool like titanium backup pro, ROM toolbox pro, carbon, etc.

Backup your apps and your app data. App data for apps you installed only. Don't backup system app data. If you do don't report errors.

System settings are the name of the game. You want to play, you do setup. Until I get things fully situated I'm not going to make dirty flashing easy that way I have to deal with fake bug reports.

To the guy asking about kernels. Learn to flash kernels. :P the ktoonz app won't magically disappear if you install stock kernel. But if you flash the kernel properly it should install. If its a boot.img you need to Loki flash it. If its a boot.lok you need to flash it like the one that's in the ROM already

Carrier Gibberish

I'm not sure if this has already been 100% settled, but the carrier name gibberish bug is definitely tied to geographic location. I first flashed the phone in Boston and the carrier name was fine. Then, on a bus ride to NYC it turned into gibberish and stayed that way for a week until today when I came to Cape Cod on a bus and it again turned back into "Verizon Wireless"
