is there any way you could send me the link of how to do this? possibly eclipse's website? that could be awesome and i don't have an sd card but i know i can still flash without it. worst comes to worst i can just flash the stock firmware back onto it which i have already done in the past. and where can i flash the kernel modules? i am not familiar with how to do this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] srimay:
I just flashed this on my T-Mobile s4 m919, with audsim ge kerneI and added my own APN and everything works well except for the play store. I get a sync error when I look at Google account, and I've tried it on WiFi as well as lte. I've even tried installing the latest play store apk. Anybody shed some light on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheScarySnail:
Oh and when I go to SS, there are multiple places in rom slot 1 to change sizes. 1) which ones do j change if any 2) by 3GB, do you mean I would only have 3GB to use for the custom ROM?? that doesn't seem like a lot. I want as much space as possible
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xMopx:
I just installed this on my ME7 Verizon S4 and everything seems to work great!....Except wifi. In settings the switch is in the "Off" position and if I tap it, it flips to on for a fraction of a second then back to "Off".

[MENTION=3247702]nitroglycerine33[/MENTION] - in the screenshots you show the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen in some images... But I can't find a way to enable this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I believe you are going to need the ME7 modules for an MDK rom.

In the screenshots it says this above it:

*build does not have softkeys enabled
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xMopx:
Ahh, I see. So I should flash the modules after the rom? Where can I find the modules?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Modules are in the safe strap thread in android development.

So can I flash this TW based ROM with the MI1 kernel modules on my galaxy s4 running MI1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gt5oh:
4.4 is going to AOSP tonight
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HoodBoogie:
I installed a 4.3 aosp ROM.. Trying to find out if I can just full wipe and flash eclipse again for it to work or do I netted to factory restore mdk and start fresh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Wipe data and you are good.

Has anyone tried the new KitKat/Nexus 5 system dump apps on this ROM? Will they theoretically work? I'd love to try but I have a paper due and can't risk screwing up my phone until after I get that done

http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/3...om-the-nexus-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
I can confirm Books, Games, Keep, Gmail, Quickoffice, the new keyboard and Hangouts. The launcher works as well if you install the new Google Play Services and Velvet apks. They all work perfectly on the MDK build as well as Nitro's AOSP build. The new camera app installs but HDR is broken and it doesn't seem to link properly with the new gallery. The new desk clock crashes for me immediately on launch. That's all I've tried so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
I simply installed Google Search from the link above and now Google search doesn't work anymore. It was velvet.apk. Was I supposed to flash anything alongside it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Did you install home and play services also? Go to Google Now-Settings-Voice-Language and change it from English (US) to English (Generic).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
No I only installed search (velvet). Did I need to flash home and play as well or just make the setting changes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Not sure. I'm running the new Keep and launcher which both require the new Play Services. I'm not sure what new functionality you'll get with the new Search if you aren't using it with the new launcher. Regardless, I'd just try the settings change first and see if it works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
Ive now installed play services and home. Still no functional search.

Does your search work? Mine responds to voice but crashed before any results are produced. Looks really slick if it will work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Yep. It's working. But I did just notice that I don't have access to the hot word detection when I change from US to Generic. But I can still tap the icon and search via voice. I'm guessing there's probably a language file that needs to be downloaded. I've always turned off hotword detection because it seemed like it would cause unnecessary battery drain, but will poke around and see if I can get it working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
I forgot about your settings a few posts back and changed my language to generic US. It worked but I was disappointed to see that hotword detection was not available on generic, so I changed it back to U.S. and now I have hotword again and search is working.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Cool. Glad it's working!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Off the wall but,

NITRO are you planning to get a nexus 10/2?..i was going to buy a nexus 10 since you have a rom for it. But I see the new nexus 10 is coming out this month...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I actually had to sell my Nexus 10 a few months ago to fix my car... long story short won the lemon law but still out the money. I am tempted to get a new one though. I would have to get approval from the boss to use the plastic lol!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
When it comes out hit me with a PM before you do anything and I will help out a little, because I love your roms and I was actually thinking of getting the older device instead of the newer one just to be able to run eclipse haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Is anyone in here rooted and running 4.3 TW? I need a few files from it:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Just an update for anyone who cares or had the same issues as I had a few pages back with over clocking and SOD's,

I've found a combo that's producing great results... I'm over clocked to 2.1 and using smartassh3 governor and sio scheduler... Obviously lighting fast and super responsive being over clocked and still getting good battery life with no SOD's!!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
So far I have 4.3 booting and almost functional. Wifi and mobile data are not working yet. Everything else seems to be working properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Good job, i've never tried your rom (nothing against you, I just make my own for myself) but its good the Loki'd people are getting some love. Its kind of a pain figuring out what combo modules, modem, apnhlos and wifi config files needed to get wifi and mobile data working lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
The more I use it, the more it seems pretty unstable if the hotword is on..

How is everyone changing their notification bar clock and WiFi icon to white
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igotgame:
This is pretty much the only reason I haven't flashed this rom yet... battery life. Below is a screen cap from my phone which is stock rooted with some mods. The screenshots are from 2 different days (the 2nd one, the screen on time was 5 hours 20 mins I believe)...

I used Eclipse roms on my GNex exclusively and have followed this thread for a while but it's hard to leave my stock setup with this battery life.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I seriously doubt you would get worse battery life. Everyone uses their phone differently.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
I noticed the same. Pretty much useless with hot word enabled, fortunately I never turn it on any way. I'm sure the devs will get a lot of these add ons incorporated before too long.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
That's pretty good battery life. I mess with the ktweaker shop and never can get 5 hour screen time. I am currently using lost in space Rev. 3 if I don't use my phone I can get 30 hours or of it with light use. But i generally only get 3 hour screen time and 16 hour. I am using greenify to and only keep my calendar, agenda widget, score center and Gmail on. I use auto screen brightness. I have better battery stats but haven't really learned how to use it.

Have you tried out any of the ktweaker shop profiles?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
I have to agree with Nitro. I've run Eclipse TW 2.0 with Greenify and without any other tweaks, stock kernel (the KT kernel included in the ROM) and experienced pretty much the same battery life. Of all the great things you can say about this ROM, good battery life is one of them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Seriously?

Read my post I'm over clocked and running a power sucking governor for performance. I always choose performance over battery, that's just my personal preference, but I'm still getting pretty Damn good battery out of an over clocked kernel/rom. If you scroll back thru the pages of this rom you can see some screen shots of battery life when I flashed and left it stock before I started messing with the ktweaker. When I was stock I could basically double the battery...

But for me I'm happy with 24hrs battery and 4.5 screen being over clocked. I like standing next to someone with a stock s4 and them saying 'Damn why is your phone so much faster than mine' lol

This.

Rom really has nothing to do with battery. It really depends what kernel and settings you are running

Here's a post I found when I left it stock...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xMopx:
I've had this rom for a few days now, and I have to thank [MENTION=3247702]nitroglycerine33[/MENTION] ! This rom is AWESOME!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
BTW, my s4 is MDK and running a self made stock MDK rom. The files I gave you were from the odin MJ7 I image extracted. Are you saying that those were the only three files you were unable to extract? Thats a strange issue. I also have the boot.img split and most other partitions enumerated and mounted on a virtual /dev/block sd with the proper offsets from the pit. so if your missing any other files id be glad to help. Anything for a fellow Iowan lol.

Though you probably dont need my help, as im sure you know how the boot.img and kernel modlues etc. interact with modem and apnhlos from diff builds, Im curious what your testing, im assuming your the mdk loki'd boot.img but what modules from which build are you using? Did you add any files to sbin in the mdk ramdisk? I dont see why data wouldn't be working unless you used the apnhlos from MJ7 or changed the apn values or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
You can't use a 4.2.2 kernel on a 4.3 build. It's not like mixing the various 4.2.2 builds.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Lets see if 4.3 is possible first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I do not have the MJ7 odin images handy right now. If someone has them can you hook me up with the boot.img please.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
No problem, download here . The boot.img in that zip is from the MJ7 odin tar
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Looks like we might not be seeing 4.3 tw on the MDK phones. The loki does not work with the 4.3 Kernel. However 4.3 really did not offer anything more than the galaxy gear support and more security.

Good news is we will still be able to get 4.4 aosp kit kat on MDK which any S4 with newer firmware will not be able to get.

This is not officially from Nitro but I am almost positive this is the case.

* I would like to thank Nitro for the countless hours that he has spent trying to make this work. As you see there are no other TW roms that are on 4.3 but I know Nitro spent a lot of time trying to make it happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ebsk8er06:
Just keep the faith man hopefully someone will figure how to get this thing runnin , nitro hope u figure out to get 4.3 up and runnin

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
I can say this. Nitro has tried to loki the 4.3 kernel and it does not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metallice:
How do the at&t mj7 roms work with Loki?

Also when did TW kernels stop being open source?

I legitimately dont understand how the kernel can be a barrier here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ebsk8er06:
What is making the mobile data not work on the 4.3 ROM rom, I don't think it would just be the kernal causing this issue, would it.... And ain't the att preleaked touchwiz 4.3 up and running on at&t s4s how are there devs getting there's to work?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
anyone try the newest Ktoonz kernel yet on beta 2??? I was going to try it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Well that's not good news. I was looking forward to the smaller things like the new smoother animations and transitions...

We will have aosp but I can't afford the loss of reception with aosp roms. At work I go from 3 bars 4g to 1 bar 3g when going from TW to aosp...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
I will let Nitro give you guys the details. If anyone has ideas I am sure he is open to them. All I know is there are no other devs in the Verizon section putting out a 4.3 tw rom yet. I am not sure how at&t are doing it.

Rom has been updated to RLS10.1!!

. Not a huge update step up but provides some new KitKat 4.4 features, and a bunch of fixes/improvements and gives you something to play with before the move to 4.3 ￼:good:

Make sure to hit the Thanks button, leave a review above or consider a donation :cyclops￼

Enjoy!

Idk if he's started or has any success with 4.3 tho

hyperdrive powered s4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metallice:
Yeah but that's not really evidence of anything. If you're making a causal claim you have to define the cause. Until then it would be unwise to make any real claims here.

I'm sure these Knox chcks can be removed from the kernel. The question is whether the ROM will refuse to boot without it. Might want to look at the recent i9505 kernels and builds, as they've had more time to get it figured out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Thanks for the input. But I honestly have no plans on running hyperdrive. Nothing against sbreen but I prefer to run Eclipse. Also RSL10.1 is still 4.2.2 so not sure if that comment on new release of RSL10.1 hyperdrive was just a plug for that rom? I am happy with Eclipse and I know Nitro will be bringing 4.4 kit kat also so I am fine. With that said I do hope someone gets 4.3 tw up and running for MDK users.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
I know it's been discussed a bunch, but when you Google it it just brings up a thousands threads saying 'this had been discussed a million times' and it's hard to find a real answer, but is there a fix for the loss of reception on aosp roms? Because ad kitkat will be awesome to run, it's not awesome dropping from 4g to 3g...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
GSM phones are way different than CDMA phones. Data will pretty much work out of the box. The issue I am having is I tried to use the MJ7 kernel and it wouldn't fully boot with it. There are still a few things I can try.

MJ7 kernel source will be out soon anyways.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I have an idea.. Just hang tight!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
He just posted it's going to be awhile as he's having trouble as well...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
you're the man Nitro! I have never tried any other ROM nor will I. I await they master-piece
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
I tried them all, and IMHO eclipse mdk 2.0 is best hands down out of all roms for Vz gs4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Metallice, your a kernel guy correct. I'm running m - kernel on my nexus now, runs great, thanks for that. Have you peeked @ this issue @ all. Might be you could bust the roadblocks on this. Another kernel devs eyes can't hurt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Xda app accidently hit submit on an empty message, but ill comment anyways. The kernel obviously lets android boot, so thats not an issue. The issue is finding modules the kernel will accept
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ryno77:
To everyone trying to get this to work, THANK YOU! Also, thanks for posting your findings. I am still hopeful this will eventually be figured out. Wish I could help but this is way beyond me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Here is as real an answer as I can give.

Mostly what you see when searching is that aosp reports the truer signal. I'll agree with that in observation.

Here is what I've seen.

My wife has a stock s4 updated as each update has came. So I can compare them side by side. They both have the same cases. So in the same location. Generally I have a slightly stronger signal when on aosp in terms of db for both voice and data. Some times it is exactly the same. Sometimes a little worse.

Using the same radio. Advanced Signal Status helped me to wrap my mind around it. AOSP reflects on the bars the worse off the 2 signals. Voice vs data. Touch wiz reflects the higher of the 2.

Also in touch wiz under battery for the cell radio time without signal. AOSP will reflect time with out signal if you lose data or voice. Touch wiz only displays time with out signal when you lose both.

Also to me data handoffs between lte to 3g or wifi take a little longer on aosp.

But the fact remains for me that speed tests are the same for both phones and I can do all the same things in the same places on on TouchWiz or aosp in terms of phone calls, texts or data.

That is my pinion not scientific. Just my observations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Then what am I doing wrong lol. I have screen shots in the exact same location within an hour apart(I was on my lunch break)... The first is the aosp rom I flashed 3g couldn't pick up 4g:

And in the same exact place on the Tw rom 4g...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
I am not sure [MENTION=4765611]Inkedadrenaline[/MENTION] that could be compelling evidence to the contrary. I'll get you some screen shots up later we are going to town. So I can show you what the two different phones are doing for me @ my location. I'm already running the latest radio. Just need to back up and restore my DU backup. I'm running hyperdrive [MENTION=757157]this[/MENTION] second. Feel like I'm cheating on Nitro saying that lol. Just comparing that's all lol. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaeKay:
I'm excited for 4.3 even though it might not be possible :( thanks for the great work!

Btw, i flashed this rom yesterday just to try it and i loved it. This is me coming from ME7 beans, which I also love.

However, i had to return because of two issues, and was wondering if there was a workaround?

1) downloading directly onto external storage from browser

2) moving apps onto Sd card (I know there are apps that can do this, i. E. Foldermount but i found the touchwiz way to be better.

Thanks everyone! I would search for these but search is broken

Edit: will I be able to place the Samsung browser apk in system apps without any problems?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
I have never flashed a radio... Is that my problem? It never says to flash a different radio in the install instructions in a rom...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
No sir. I do notice subtle differences. I feel like in my location me7 radio has the best signal mdk the best battery. Still testing the latest radios.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Low signal area.

My speed test was worse. Up load was faster but download was slower than hers. Sorry didn't get screen shots of these.

Phones side by side. Speed test ran @ the same time. Notice aosp is displaying the lower of the 2 values. Voice vs data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
Thanks, but my issue was it losing 4g.i would go from 4g to 3g once on aosp rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
I did forget that speed test from the low signal on TouchWiz.

Did you check the settings under mobile networks sometimes it's set to something other than cdma +lte/evdo.

Not sure why exactly. Have not investigated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Ignore that one that was touch wiz with good signal

Here is the low signal speed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Inkedadrenaline:
I've never checked the data settings. Didn't know I needed to thanks. I will try that once Nitro releases his kitkat build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
I just installed Xposed framework and then Wanam Xposed and set the status bar opacity all the way to the left and it did nothing. What did you do?

Yes, I rebooted when prompted.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MetaMav:
^^^^ This was recently posted in the general section. The Eclipse ROM thread seems to be the only thread discussing work on a 4.3 ROM so I thought I'd see if this is news to anyone. I also know Nitro has an alpha 4.3 TW ROM posted on another forum that doesn't have working data or wifi with KT's kernel. He also suggests that loki-ing the stock MJ7 kernel might do the trick (but says he hasn't tried it).

Also,

Could there be a need for MJ7 firmware to be merged in with KT's kernel to get MJ7 4.3 Wifi and Data working on that kernel (in reference to Nitro's efforts)?

Hope this helps. I'd be happy to test anything. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Nitro fyi a post in general said 4.3 source was on the Samsung open source site now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metallice:
Hey nitro I know the last two posts mentioned this but I thought I'd also let you know that the MJ7 kernel source is available. /s

Also... People keep missing the kernel part. Touchwiz was not magically opensourced with 4.3. There is no 4.3 source available other than Google's AOSP.
