It's no problem. No offense was taken. Your initial comment included a quote of someone else anyway. :) But I had recently echoed a request for a CRT toggle, so I figured I'd defend my statement nonetheless. :)

I agree that we should keep in mind how much these devs do for us for so little. I have a little angst any time I post a request in a ROM thread. :) That's mainly why I don't do it very often. All is well.

Loving 1.5!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] paulg1981:
Exact same thing happened to me. The only solution I found was to Odin back to stock MDK and reboot then refresh...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
Oh man! I really don't want to have to do that. So your saying revert back to stock rom and re root? Then start over?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ainvar:
Yep, sadly that is what he is saying. Takes maybe 30-45 minutes from start to finish to obin back to 100% stock, root, go back to stock kernel, add recovery, and flash ROM. From there takes however long it normally does to restore your stuff back to the phone.

I say 30-40 minutes cause I am normally enjoying some bourbon and doing something else why I wait for it to complete.

Yea unfortunately.

No Ascending Ringtone Xposed Module

Here's an Xposed module I made for myself to get rid of the ascending ringtone. I know Nottach has this feature, but it really bogs my phone down. This is extremely light weight and will have no performance impact. I could have made a flashable zip with the modded SecPhone.apk, but nitro updates this ROM so fast and I don't want to redo the patch every week :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] paulg1981:
So just install? Data or system? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
Yeah, just install it...you need the Xposed framework, too tho. Just google it. It's dead simple to install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brock1909:

Don't wanna be "that guy" but could u do the transparent status bar for 1.5?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brock1909:
Did it open another tab? Is your xda session in the active tabs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
I decided to try a different kernel prior to starting over and I have rebooted 3 times and no error has come up and I immediately am locking on to 4g. Weird

No same tab, instead of coming back to where I left off I'm now at the Google search screen

1.5 is just amazing. Battery life is back up, and running so buttery smooth. Screen stay works with updated kernel. Just... Wow. Another donation in order!

Any way to get the optical reader to work? Scotts zip worked at some point, but no longer. Just curious if anyone had any luck. I'll look into figuring out how to get it to work this weekend if anything.

Thanks again for this beautiful piece of work.

Eclipse Mods Xposed Module

I went ahead and put together a few mods in one module. They are individually selectable and include:

- Transparent status bar

- Remove carrier from notification shade

- Disable ascending ringtone

- Match wifi and data signal bar colors

- Disable CRT animation

- Long press back or menu button to kill active app

This is still extremely light compared to Nottach...so no performance hit.

If you have any requests...I'll give them a shot. No promises ;)

THIS REQUIRES THE XPOSED FRAMEWORK [LINK]

Hi,

Looking forward to trying this ROM. WIll my Exfat sd card be safe on 1.5?

I know when going to AOSP it corrupts the card but since this is touchwiz based I am assuming it will be fine?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] randy hoopes:
LTE speeds are awful any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Harleydroid:
I also recently joined nitro on the S4 and as far as signal goes his ROM has been the best. I stream music all night at work in a factory and get 0 buffer. My 4 g signal at home is really good. I tried hyperdrive and my signal over 3 g was poor. Not sure if its kernel related but I actually flashed my eclipse backup and bam no problems. Hopefully over time and development signal quality will increase.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
I just checked mine and they are really slow also. But wonder if not is due to my area.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
Mine seem about right

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] randy hoopes:
I'm only getting no more than 2mb down and not even 1 up when I was seeing at least 5 down and 3 up before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Harleydroid:

Anyone else also notice their phones warm on this rom? My screen feels way warmer than normal? :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Guyinlaca:
How about the mod for hold back key to kill an app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] randy hoopes:
Anyone know why the settings button at the top of the notification bar is gone? Is that just me or is there a way to get it back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
It has been removed and nitro said it is not coming back.

What about Samsung apps like Smemo? Also why isn't every app supported in multi-window?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the sandman89:
You can download Multi Window Manager from the play store to enable all apps in multi window
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdub251:
Triangle away works great for this purpose. It's $2. 99 on the playstore or chainfire has it on here free for members to download. However you need to have stock kernel. It works until you flash another rom.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayracer7474:
Worked great once i figured out how to use xposed. I am new to xposed and ran the install, rebooted, installed your apk rebooted and it didn't work. So went into posed installer and it didnt install the bundles so ran it again, and your mods didnt work. So i went back into xposed and checked your mod under modules and rebooted and worked perfect. Exactly what i wanted, thanks a mil.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
This won't matter now since you won't leave Eclipse once you install it, but your card can be recovered easily when those AOSP ROMs were choking on it. Put it in a Windows machine and run chkdsk e: /f and your card and data will be restored.

But yes, 1.5's packaged kernel supports exFAT. So you'll be set. And you can always flash the stock kernel on TW ROMs if the packaged kernel doesn't support exFAT.

3G (ewwww) jk jk / all the best... in advance...

Haha! Yea, I can only get 3G in the basement at work. Kind of a bummer at times!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] justreboot:
Regardless / pretty good news / I knew that ME7 was rooted, but thought the bootlocker wasn't broken yet. Is this going to involve re-rooting the phone or will we be able to do the standard wipe/install? Not sure if you know, but will the elite/stock kernel work with this build (in seeing ExFat)...

Thanks in advance and get some rest :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Guyinlaca:
From what I've read, the ME7 ROM has added security checks and many of the mods in place don't play nicely with it. My guess is that from a rooted MDK ROM one would flash a pre-rooted ME7 ROM. Given that its also 4.2.2, the only notable addition is apps 2 SD, and that 4.3 is now in devlopment, I'm not sure developers want to redo Roms simply for ME7 and have to rework them for 4.3 when it comes. I could be wrong though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
You are not going to want to take the ME7 update. This is just the firmware that is designed to work with our current setup. You will install it just like any other build. It will look and act just like 1.5 with some newly added Samsung features such as apps2sd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krayzee:
This!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] justreboot:
I think you answered my question, but I'm gonna play dumb anyway :)

I wasn't planning on taking the update from Verzion and re-rooting :)

The question was/is can I just boot to recovery>backup>wipe>install 1.5ME7 or whatever you're gonna call it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xMopx:
Does this work on devices with the latest OTA update? (Build number I545VRUAME7)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
Nitro I have a question for you. I posted my issue a few pages back but I was wondering if you would know this. Before flashing your ROM I was running Darkslide which is a ME7 ROM. I read with this ROM the baseband is installed with it. I installed your ROM (clean) and whenever I reboot the phone it loads with no data/phone connection. I have to go into Mobile Networks and select LTE CDMA. I then get an error android.process. phone has stopped. When I click OK the phone connects to the VZW network and all is well until I reboot. I though changing the kernel would help but after 3 reboots it came back. Could the me7 ROM/baseband I installed be causing the conflict with your ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
Is there really any benefit by redoing the ROM on top of the ME7 build? I'm just wondering since I never flashed the deodexed ME7.

You call yourself a themer so you should at least have a feeling that most users tend to prefer to be up to date...even if nothing much is gained. I love this rom and whether on MDK or ME7 I'll still run it. I don't use apps2sd but I'm sure there are people here who would prefer to have it natively.

GE boot animation- flash a GE bootanimation.zip

Brightness status bar control- there is already a slider in the pull down. So there is no need for it.

Google play music is cutting in and out. I have all mucic saved to device while at work to save data. I am running the very loud sound mod. Just started doing this last night. Was working fine with the sound mod. Also does this while streaming. Any help would be great.

Edit. I think I figured the problem out. I went back to stock sound and it still did it. I changed min CPU a bit higher and governor to performance and no skipping yet. Nitro I would really like a sound boost built into the rom . There use to always be a headphone boost in kernels on my gnex. Work in a factory and can hardly hear my music without a mod. Plugging phone into a stereo that is. No headphones allowed.

That means you didn't tap the "Install/Update" button on the first tab of the Xposed Installer app. After you install the apk you downloaded...you have to actually install the framework. It requires root, so that makes it a two step process.
