This is just awesome. Everything majoe works fine for me. Several little bugs, but overall so far so good. You folks know its just the icon, and to check to see if you have a connection? Speed tests check out the same. So stoked to have IR functionality without that heavy TW business. Can't wait to see where this goes!

Dubbsy,

Can you provide any info on how you got data to work on the VZW S4 with the AT&T/TMOBILE rom? The efforts over on the sprint side left off with no data, or 1xRTT only before the thread vanished.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kpa2727:
More fun, can't get v4 to boot now after reflash, maybe it cwm's fault
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Yep. What you said.

I wanted a fully themed touchwiz. And there are no native themed tw Roms specific to vzw(yet lol)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
You mean sprint doesn't have a working ge yet? Damn. Give me a bit. I'm trying to proove yet another 2 concept builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kpa2727:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] angst911:
nope, not unless some dev is working on it in secret.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docnok63:
PSA: I just lost all data by going into network and selecting LTE/CDMA. I fixed it by restoring a TW ROM. It connected 3G right off the bat and it went in and selected the same in network. LTE came back instantly. I then restored this ROM's backup and LTE is back. ( I got the idea from the AOSP GPS fix and it worked.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chuckleb0ne:
The thing that I don't get is how some people have it and others don't. This is probably why its not fixed yet. Damn carrier banner is weird to look at if you ask me.

That's what bothers me. Mine has been perfect.

I'll dig tomorrow and see if I can trace it down more.

Build prop

Can someone post the original build prop for the product and model for this ROM I forgot to make a back up. Im having issue with wallet crashing when I try to open it with the ROM build prop I changed it to the jfltevzw and it no longer crashes but says its not supported. Not sure what the issue is. Also tried it with the jfltespr build prop but it would crash when I opened wallet as well. Any ideas?

What are these kernels I'll never have? Curious if there's a private community out there or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ejhollyer:
My "bad towers" are still bad when I revisit them. I think we've pretty much narrowed it down to the tower you're on, but the switching could have something to do with it. I still get some drops once I have established a connection on one of these bad towers though.

Another thing I did notice is the problem completely disappears when you select CDMA auto from the LTE switcher app. No drops at all, but you don't get LTE speeds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] macravin:
Have you tried near Port Chester? It's definitely based on the tower that's in use. The carrier reports fine in my hometown, but on the train to NY it garbles at Port Chester and through some parts of Manhattan.

BTW, does everyone get the same garbled mess? Here's a picture if what I get:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loldi:
I read somewhere that people experiencing this have found that the ROM is inadvertently attempting to download the 4.3 update, but failing. I'd check your data usage as well to make sure that this is not the case. Some people found that Google Services was eating up massive amounts of data trying to do this.

Will a Google Edition 5.4 CleanBuild deodexed w/ elite kernel be coming soon OR should I just install Google Edition Pure.v5.4 Aroma Deodexed and run the elite kernel with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
What are you talking about?

Kernels that I've used successfully on this are:

Elite TW

Chronic TW

Faux

Ktoonsez TW

Theoretically possible(if you know how to pack up a kernel) - Ziggy kernel from Synergy

Doesn't work - Stock TW kernel

The kernel in the latest aroma is the factory 9505 GPE kernel modified to work for vzw.

And I just modified BroodKernel and Audism v13 GPE kernels for VZW. :cool: Audism just booted up. :good:

In the 9505 forums.

I doubt you will see a posted flashable version by the Devs as they've stayed strictly to 9505. And I won't be posting a flashable DIRECTLY. But I'd like to build a small library of kernels into the aroma package.

I built a folder in the dropbox we are working in that has:

Chronic

Elite

Faux U

KT

Brood Kernel

Agat Kernel -MTP issues(may or may not include this)

So I didn't read the warning on not going into the Network settings, and tried turning on Roaming mode. Now I can't get LTE back. I went into the LTE On/Off app and set it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) and now can get back on 3G but no 4G.

What is the fix? Can I reflash? Or do I need to restore a backup for another ROM to change the setting?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Loop4zil:
Just flashed 5.4.1... no GPS lock. Any one else having this.

Actual location is the little brief case
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docnok63:
Yes. Restore a TW ROM and then you can flash whatever you want.

Loop- As you can tell, you are within the current range of accuracy of the blue circle. Perhaps if you go outside, your lock will improve.

Which tw rom do we need to flash to to get gps right? And then if I flash a nandroid of this rom it will still take, or will the nandroid undo the gps fix the tw rom supplied?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cruiserdude:
I never had a problem in the first place, but I definitely noticed an improvement after flashing BoneStock, getting a lock, and then booting to recovery while I still had a lock. I know it doesn't make sense but seems like my GPS locks faster now, even inside near windows, something no other phone I've had would do.

I used BoneStock because that's what I had on my card, as I like to flash it every now and then if I wanna play with TW. I assume any rom that's based on a stock Verizon build would work. I'd go for something like BoneStock that doesn't have any real deep changes, as the firmware is likely to all be intact, which is what you want. If you just want something for this and have no other desire to have a TW rom you can flash to, then just use stock rooted.

broodprank1337 made a mostly working aosp build for the international 9505(all but Bluetooth are working). I cloned his repo and made a working vzw version. It runs smooth as butter. Only problem is the Bluetooth. Didn't look into it much yet.

It's not the same as Google Edition 4.3 but while I'm still working out the details involving the RIL for that I decided to build this. Actually if you get technical this isn't even fully aosp, but it's about as close as you'll get at this point.

Now, back to work on GE_4.2.2_Aroma_5.5

In it's next release:

Choice of chrome or aosp browser

Center clock, right clock, no clock

Choice of extra keyboards, and a themed Google keyboard

Apex, nova, stock, or 3 page stock launcher

Navbars

Quick reply MMS, TW-Camera, Viper4Android

And the option to leave it Pure with no performance tweaks or to make it the performance tweaked version

Need to fix some permissions and folders. Should have it and the 2 aosp builds posted sometime this weekend :D

DSP Manager is extremely basic. I'll attach a flashable .zip, but you should look for better options. The easiest installation would be Noozxoide DSP from the Play Store. It does everything DSP Manager does and adds surround/spatialization effects.

But if you want the best sound on your phone, as in world of difference, then get Viper4Android sound mod. Installation is easy, but almost completely manual and takes a bit to do. I see Dubbsy is planning on putting it in the next release. This is a GOOD thing! :victory:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pmaxx:
Thanks for the advice! I've tried viper4android several times on a couple of ROMs, and have run into the same issue each time, where it functions intermittently, and I can't figure out why. I did follow your instructions very carefully (several times, in fact), on both this ROM and CM10.1. Sometimes it works and processes the sound, but many times it doesn't. I can even hear it "click" in and out through my headphones, but I can't find any way to reliably reproduce either it working or not (though sometimes it seems that switching to a different app that outputs sound and then back to the original app will get it going again). I've tried it with Apollo, Play Music, and Doubletwist. I'll try Noozxoide and see how it goes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] knights665:

Nope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joqsan:
Is it not possible or do you just not have the time. Not trying to be rude
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docnok63:
Careful; the mod is not just an .apk. The driver installation within the app puts the .so file(s) in system\lib\soundfx. When you choose A8 with NEON in FX, it installs libv4a_fx_ics.so. When you choose Ax with NEON in XHiFi, it installs libv4a_xhifi_ics.so. Also in sound\music effects, FX must now be selected. This ensures the mod will be running system wide (ala MX Player, Pandora, iHeartRadio, etc.)

I've never heard of this behaviour with the mod. Usually it works or it doesn't. This sounds kernel related if you're trying to save too much battery life in wakelock. Turn your min mHz up a tad. If this doesn't help, PM me. We'll get it going right.

It would be easier and much faster for me to write a script that would pull the files out of a cm10 apk and package them as a vrtheme installer. No promises on that either. But that is at least do-able

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
They are as aosp as it can be currently and function. The Samsung source is more like android open touchwiz project(if talking about the Google edition source). The Google editions are nothing really like aosp for anyone who's dug into aosp before they can vouch. Brood's aosp uses full aosp framework and apps. It uses cm files for a lot of the lib files.

It's basically the most aosp out of the bunch but still not full aosp. In not sure if we will see a full legit aosp anytime soon if ever.

Really digging this ROM. I was wondering if someone could help me out. I prefer the button combos for Google Now and multitasking on TW ROMs (ie. hold home button for multitasking, hold menu button for Google Now.) I know there is the option for the nav bar, but im not a fan of losing some of the screen to buttons that are already built into the phone. Hopefully removing touble tap would reduce the home button lag as well... Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pmaxx:
Which kernel are you using where it's been stable? I'm running Elite (3.4.0) that came with this ROM, and I've made no tweaks to it. The fact that I've had issues on so many different ROMs makes me wonder if there's some possibility this is hardware related (or at least software that's outside of the ROM). I actually ran into a similar issue with DSP manager on CM10.1, where it would intermittently work. I think that on CM10.2 DSP Manager was solid.

Thanks again for all the help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docnok63:
I'm currently on v5 of the ROM (Dubbsy said not to bother to upgrade if you're happy and I'm very happy with the current state of my phone.) I'm running KT's 8-4 build at the moment. I was running Chronic for the longest time, but I kept having wakelock reboots. KT is much more stable right now. I like Elite's kernel on 4.3 builds, but their TW build needs an update IMHO.

The more information you present, the more it sounds like a hardware issue. Having trouble across many ROMs and different software (DSPs/mods/kernels) only leaves one variable: hardware. It sounds like you have an issue with your audio chip, jack, or both. Hard to get the serviced when you have the unsecure bootloader. You'll lose that if you get a replacement (and thus, custom recovery.)

Feature request:

[MENTION=5168775]Dubbsy[/MENTION]- I've been dabbling in 4.3 for a couple weeks now and got used to a feature in CM. Would it be possible to separate notification and ringtone volumes on this ROM?
