I've been reading lot of good things about 2.0 Kernel and battery life. BioShock 1.0 has also lasted me all day, although I haven't compared the two. I believe though that 2.0 is built with battery life in mind, if I'm not mistaken.

I'll probably flash it and give it a try ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
You should definitely try it out. It felt weird at first reverting back to an older kernel but it's damn well worth it. Amazing battery life without sacrificing one bit of performance.

Advice b4 I restore Alpha 7.0 Nandroid:

This is where I am:

I'm on Alpha 7.5:

Wanted to create a Nandroid of 7.5 >>

-Recovery

Backup

Boot

Stuck on Infamous screen with rotating graphic

--Pulled battery

Recovery

wipe cache & dalvik cache

boot

splash freeze

---pulled battery

Recovery

wipe cache, dalvik and System & preload

boot

stuck on splash

----Repeated above

Stuck on Samsung splash

Also getting a Recovery pop up No Root

Install Root

Going to Restore my Nandroid Alpha 7.0

Losing my 7.5 set up. And losing some notes, numbers, etc from today because didn't do a backup of recent data because didn't think I'd run into this mess.

Shoulda backed up some data from a few hours ago.

B4 I do a Nandroid restore, any way to get back to the installed 7.5 i had prior to try to do a Backup.

Edit:

Pulled battery

Recovery

Wipe cache & dalvik

Boot system

Root pop up again

Stuck on Samsung Splash

The above sequence ain't gonna work

6-7x

Going to try to Restore 7.0 Nandroid in 5 minutes

Update:

I said to myself, I couldn't Boot after the 7.5 Nandroid completed, so maybe I can Restore 7.5 Nandroid instead of 7.0, if 7.5 shows.

Alpha 7.5 Nandroid is available.

Will try to Restore.

Flashing 7.5 Nandroid now

Hey, this is like Surgery Live without the anesthesia or NFL Play by Play :laugh:

FAILED!

Trying one more time before flashing 7.0 Nandroid

Nandroid 7.5 FAILED again. Most likely due to an incompleted Nandroid although it said Complete.

Received a suggestion from [MENTION=5236488]zorprime01[/MENTION] to dirty flash 7.5 ROM which I didn't think of. That 'extra pair of eyes' I spoke about previously. Looking at an issue I keep looking over and over with the same eyes, from the same perspective.

Aroma Installing now.

Aroma Booting

Stuck on Splash screen

Recovery

Wipe cache, dalvik, system, preload

Install 7.5

Dirty flash

Installing 2.0 Kernel instead of BioShock from b4

Aroma installing & Booting.........

Samsung Splash screen.......Stuck..........

Tried everything to keep my data.

Going to Flash 7.0 Nandroid, and if successful, I may stay with 7.0

Murphy just ain't leaving me alone, and he may not be done yet.

Hey, me keeping him busy keeps him off your backs :)

Flashed 7.0 Nandroid

Samsung Splash..........

Whatever is getting me stuck on Samsung Splash on all previous attempts is also getting me stuck after 7.0 Nandroid Install.

Will have to ODIN. No other options.

Been awhile since I've had to ODIN.

I gotta look at the protocol again.

Maybe later.............

TWRP password

Every since flashing this version, I'm stuck on the Samsung splash screen. When going back to recovery, I get prompt for a password, which I've never set or know how to set one for recovery. I've Odin back to CWM recovery and still stuck on same splash screen...even flashed to Infamous S4 5.0, but same issue. Odin back to TWRP and i get the same password prompt. HELP please....tried to restore 7.3, but same issue again. HELP! Full wipe, super wipe, all the wipes were used in this issue. Btw, also, Odin back to original ROM, but same issue. I'm guessing the password that TWRP is asking for is prevent system, etc, to boot properly.

Previous Issues Update

Update from Long winded previous post :eek:

Before I ODIN'd:

Recovery

*DATA FORMAT (Wipes Internal)

(* I still had all my Internal files on my extSdCard from the Data Format I did the other day, so I wasn't going to lose any files, except 2 new ones from today)

Wipe cache, dalvik cache, system, preload

Flashed Nandroid Alpha 7.0

Success :good:

I knew I had a chance if I wiped with Data Format that I could install other ROMs, Nandroids, etc. and could have attempted Dirty Flashing 7.5 to keep my Data from today. But I didn't want a chance I'd run into similar issues down the line so I decided to flash Nandroid 7.0 which was issue free for me.

Luckily I am in the Minority, But after 7.0 I've had issues. I don't know why.

But with 7.5, I've run into issues upon Booting,where I needed to wipe cache & dalvik cache, etc.

Like I said, I'm in the Minority, But if others find themselves in the same predicament, read my post which may help.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
Ok Biker, we're going to figure this thing out!! Going to run through everything in my TWRP. Never know, it could be something really stupid that we would never expect lol.

I'm using TWRP v2.5.0.2 that I flashed through ODIN.

In TWRP settings I have everything unchecked and Eastern time zone.

In mount I have Data, cache and MicroSD card checked.

I never fix permissions or wipe cache and dalvik cache after a fresh install. This is a long shot, and it's probably retarded that I'm even posting this because I doubt it has anything to do with these things but you never know lol.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Yeah. I went from 7.0 - 7.5. You saw all the issues I had.

Even after success, I froze on Samsung splash after Booting for something, and I had to wipe cache & dalvik.

I couldn't take a chance I'd run into same issues as today and yesterday, so I installed 7.0 again.

Yes. Since Aroma I've run into mucho issues.

Don't know what the ADI's, (Androidal Technical Issues) are, if that's what's occurring. But something is up :confused:

I'm the King of suggesting to others TWRP 2.5.0.2, if running 2.6.0.0. Posts & installation tutorials up the wazoo about this :) Thanks though, as that's one of the first things to look at ;)

But I think it may be beyond the Recovery, Unless the Recovery is not liking Aroma, and causing an installation conflict. Beyond my knowledge if this is possible.

After Aroma installs and Boots, TWRP flashes for a split second. I wonder if this is part of the cause?

Do others who have TWRP have it flash for a second after Aroma is done Installing, and it's ready to Boot?

In TWRP 2.5.0.2.....

Data Format

Move ROM to extSdCard Because Internal will be Eradicated :eek:

Wipe:

Cache

Dalvik cache

System

for good measure.

Full Wipe in Aroma.

That's what I'm using I just want to make sure it's safe to format internal storage before flashing cuz I know one rom said not to format data.

If the md5 checks the download is good.

Haven't had a single infamous rom not boot. Maybe I'll post my flashing process and what recovery I used, with each new release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Something ain't jiving.

I've about wiped everything imaginable and more.

But I've used the same set up for other Infamous ROMs without issue up until Aroma.

I've also used the set up I have re recovery with other ROMs. No Aroma.

With that said, there are many with TWRP 2.5.0.2 I'm sure who've flashed the Aroma ROMs without issue.

The common denominator in my case is:

- using the same 7.5 dl, but is good re md5 checksum

- Aroma

Even after using 7.5 for over a day, when I went to do a backup, I couldn't getopast splash.

After having initial flashing issues when first flashing, I had to boot after restoring mms sms andccall hx using My Backup Pro and got stuck on Samsung splash. Had to wipe cache dakvik cache.

There's gotta be a conflict somewhere.

When I have time, I'll dl 7.5 again, flash after wiping internal again, and boot.

I won't install any apps and boot, reboot, Nandroid 7.5 and see how it goes.

Btw, when I flashed 7.5, I Full Wiped in Aroma which yielded getting stuck on Samsung splash multiple times.

When I No Wiped in Aroma I booted fine. I already wiped in Recovery so I wasn't coming concerned other than why full in Aroma didn't work for me. I'm not up on the tech stuff, but appears to be a conflict with Aroma & Recovery perhaps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
I downloaded Alpha 7.5 again:

Recovery

Data Format (Wipes Internal)

Wipe cache, dalvik cache, system

Installed ROM from Recovery

Aroma

Full Wipe

Aroma installed and booted without issue

Device Booted without issue

Changed name

I let device settle for 7 minutes.

Rebooted device

Stuck on Samsung Splash 10 minutes

Pulled battery

Recovery

Booted System

Device Powered up without issue

Maybe the above description will yield a hint to the possible issue, and someone will know why I am The Chosen One to spend so much time with Murphy ;)

I'll let settle a couple of hours and then restore my stuff.

Before I do though, I'll reboot a couple of times to see if I encounter any problems.

Update:

I waited about 20 minutes

set up gmail account

device froze

pulled battery

TWRP pw requested

no pw worked

backed out of pw request

wipe cahe, dalvik, etc. Failed (decrypt file not found, or something like that)

Format Data worked

Wiped cache, dalvik, system

Installing 7.5 again

Aroma completed and Device Booted up without issue.

pull sdcard and flash from internal, i still think you need to odin stock and use CFautoroot and format sdcard but try first option if you haven't. what kernel are you flashing, i missed that?

I appreciate the offer But I'll be getting some sleep in a bit.

If I gotta do certain stuff I will if necessary.

I did most other ts.

Plus I don't really wanna test other Recoveries, as I've never had issues until Aroma involved unless a coincidence.

The 7.5 Nandroid has 2.48gb

7.0 Nandroid has 1.58gb

I'm Fat32 64gb card but I think there's a 4gb file limit so the 2.48 Nandroid shouldn't be affected?

Anyone else run across a wakelock issue? I've been having this issue where the screen will wake (from a text) and not go to sleep. It makes for some interesting auto-correct butt-texting. Almost legible.

I turned off "smart stay" to see if it fixes it, but no luck. Anyone know of an app that will show what is keeping it awake? I figured it has to be a background process of an installed application, since it didn't do it fresh out of the flash. Only after I got everything reinstalled.
