Yea.. they are not really fixed. More of a cosmetic change.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:
Looking forward to it, Nitro. I believe this is going to be the ROM. Your TW ROM is nice, but this one is so smooth and fast, once it has all the features, I don't think any other ROM will come close.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgfltmedic:
Thanks nitro! Daily for sure! Battery with ktoonez not too shabby! #greatness
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SmokeyMon:
I think I have finally been provided with a reason to move from your other quite dominant ROM. Thanks man. I wish I could donate more often. Love the work.

Very nice :) thanks for the reply
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dscblu:
Nitro, are you still working on this ROM? No matter what I flash I always find myself restoring the backup I have of this ROM and would LOVE to see an update for it :). I'm not trying to ask for an eta I'm just curious if your planning to update in general.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revolt1:
I have 3 roms that I use this and his 4.3 and sacs v4 all solid roms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I am not too sure about updating this. My 4.3 build is solid and doesn't have the quirks this build does. I may do some bug fix updates to this build. I am still undecided.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revolt1:
at least bug fixes would be great
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scarmon25:
Curious. Why not upgrade it to the 4.3 OTA files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Because data is going to require some work to get going and my 4.3 AOSP build is more stable and open source.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scarmon25:
Gotcha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Vegas_Sirk:
Hi guys .... A couple of things ...

Im having data issues. Sometimes my data only works for certain apps for example google search works, but it will not load webpages, or facebook will load, but instagram will not update.

At first I thought this was an area issue, but I am now having it happen in areas where I had data just fine the previous day. Is anyone else having this issue?

Also I noticed there is a update to Google Now, but it wont install since the ROM uses the inverted version, Im cool using the current one but just wanted to throw this out there.

EDIT: NM just read your posts above about stopping support on this .... will jump over to your 4.3 ROM instead. Cheers!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scotepi:
I would love to flash this but I can't figure out how. There are no instructions on the first post/page and skimming the first 10 pages (out of 60) I can't find anything on how to flash this. I rooted via http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2380325 and as far as I can tell that rooting method isn't compatable with CWR ROM Manager
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
If you used that root method you are on ME7. Unfortunately there is no custom recovery for ME7 which means no flashing of custom ROMs for now.

Keep an eye on Hashcode's safestrap recovery progress over in the general section. Looks like h will have you ME7 peeps flashing fairly soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revolt1:
Anything on the update on fixing issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
Bummer, this ROM appears abandoned :-\

Nothing else offers Google Experience with a working S-View.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Its a month old and I support 20 other devices. Laptop has been broken for three of those weeks. Not very many people use this build. Not really sure why it was never adopted. Just because I have other devices and real life to attend to doesn't mean I abandoned it. Its not like this build is over a year old.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
Sorry, man, I didn't mean to come across as critical of you and your work. It's really more of a jab at people who don't recognize what you've accomplished here. When I say that this is the one and only ROM that offers a smooth, familiar AOSP / Google Experience with a working Touchwiz feature like S-View, I mean it. No one else has done it.

That probably goes more to say how few actually found the S-View cover useful. I've grown to dependon it so no other ROM is even an option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] michaelg117:
Running this on SS. works great! thanks for the hard work dev.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jesssiii:
What's the difference between the various Eclipse ROMs? This one and the one not labeled GE for the Verizon S4, I mean.

S4 I545 ME7 ROOTED
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jsminnis:
Oops posted in wrong thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
The reasons I never stuck with it are the scrambled carrier text and no TW camera. That said, I didn't stay on either GE build for longer than a day but I preferred yours due to the added tweaks. Ultimately your Eclipse TW build offers stability and such a nice AOSP like experience that I have no need to use GE builds or unstable AOSP builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Z.Z.Z.:
:confused:Is there any way to get rid of / change / fix that carrier name???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
It's removed from the pulldown.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Z.Z.Z.:
Not from the lock screen though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
Settings->My Device->Lock Screen. Uncheck "Help text."
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Z.Z.Z.:
These setting don't exist in this rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] michaelg117:
Use XBlast tools Xposed module to change it, and it shows up perfectly.

Amazing Rom

I have been using this Rom with ss for the past 3 days and have been very impressed with the battery life and buttery-smoothness. I have only found a couple of hiccups. One is that randomly within certain apps, I can't pull down the notification and quick settings bar. Not a deal breaker. The other is that I can't click on the battery picture when in the battery settings without having the settings crash. Not a deal breaker either.

I would 100% recommend this Rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kusaiashi:
Actually I just found another hiccup! I am unable to send pictures through text messages. When I attach a picture to a message, it just says "sending" indefinitely. Anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
Try turning data on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roboots21:
Pretty sure it is an AOSP messaging bug. When you attach the picture, click "View". You have to do this or it won't send. I forget sometimes and then it sticks at sending.

'Ever forget? Happened to me." :)

Data Issues

Just installed this on a friends S4 and we noticed that the LTE dropped out. Skimmed most of this thread and saw that what you do is go to settings->Mobile Data->(something) and then choose CDMA/LTE (auto). I tried this and rebooted and no avail LTE is still missing. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] michaelg117:
So it may be the fact that I'm using safe strap, but when I turn data off in the toggles, it won't connect when I turn it back on unless I go into airplane mode.

It shows a connection, but nothing actually connects. Any ideas?

Sent from Navi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
That is your problem. Do not toggle data. Fix it in settings-mobile network
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
is there any way we could get mapable hardware keys in this rom? I've grown used to having the menu button as the home button and the physical home button as the menu button.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Yes. Run my 4.3 AOSP build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
For those who are experiencing FC in the battery stats, do you guys have xposed installed? I noticed it started doing it after installing it.

When running the ROM the way it comes, there are no FC's in battery stats.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
Ok, just flashed it. It allows me to change the long press actions, but not the short press. I want the menu button to act as a home button and the home button to act as a menu button.

SafeStrap is your friend....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2448726

Just a heads up for those with FC on battery stats.

The developer of Xposed just released a beta version which fixes that for us... I can now access the battery stats without FC (with Xposed installed)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
What are people benching with what kernels used?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Au_A7:
The google play edition rom also has problems with LTE. The mobile network symbol shows no sign that you've lost connection, but periodically internet stops working. For instance, spotify will show a popup that says "no network connection," and you can't use the browser. The only fix I know about is to toggle airplane mode for 30 seconds. This is the only thing that's worked for me. Hopefully this issue gets fixed soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mercutio5:
Already did a cursory search of this thread, but didn't find it: Where does one find the Navbar install for this ROM?

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I originally was not planning to update this build but someone on ME7 asked me about it and it made me realize that you guys cannot really get a Google experience rom that are stuck with ME7 kernels. It will be a little while but I will work on getting this updated for you guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
The custom navbars are actually in the aosp build you can find here http://www.elementalxdesigns.com/ec...1-build-6-Galaxy-S4-(jfltevzw)-Light-amp-Dark!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Thank you nitro
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SellswordShev:
IMO this is still probably the best ROM for safestrapped ME7/MI1, I just hate the look of TW system apps. From a day to day use perspective I don't have any issues. The only bugs I've run into are avoidable: toggling data breaks it till you go in system ->mobile networks and fix it, battery details crashes system so I just stick to better battery stats.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Have you tried my TW build? It has all AOSP apps and theming
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SellswordShev:
Downloaded the ME7 beta yesterday, trying out hyperdrive for a couple of days then I'll give the TW version a go. I did find a couple more issues with this ROM that I've read are related to the kernel mismatch: usb MTP doesnt work and going into App Info crashes system UI sometimes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crookfingerjake:
Has anyone had issues with MMS not working for group messages? After I safe-strapped Eclipse everything is pretty great except for this one problem.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
In the same area this rom is. It will work with safe strap too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ajm2387:
You are awesome! Any update on when the new build will be out? Just bought an S4 but it's ME7 and I HATE TW. AOSP is the way to go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jvinga1:
Google Search won't run

I've successfully installed using Safestrap and things look good except for Google Search / Google Now. It simply crashes. There's an update in the Play Store, but when I try to install it, i get the error "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again." I found the APK files to download and tried those, but I get the same error. I'm not sure where/how to uninstall the current ones. The APK is com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-3.1.8.914827.arm.apk, but I don't see it in the system/apps folder to be able to manually delete with root explorer.

Also, I have a couple of notifications requesting permission to use my Google account. One was simply labeled "Google Serach" so I accepted. But another says "Google Search would like to: " then blank space. Then there's the Google symbol with "mobilepersonalfeeds" as the text. I did accept these, assuming they were part of Google Search, but that doesn't help the problem with it crashing. I mention it because I've not see that with any other ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
So 4.4 ge? Now appears possible
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dark_Spark:
Yeah, I would love to have a 4.4 GE ROM port for the Verizon S4. I'm getting an S-view flip cover soon, so the GE ROMs are the only ROMs I'll want to use here soon since they have the functionality for the cover retained, but are AOSP. I'm running this ROM right now and I absolutely love it. Battery life is fantastic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ajm2387:
Just wanted to say thanks again. I absolutely love this ROM. It kills me that Verizon won't unlock the bootloader so I can't get any AOSP roms that I normally would but this is perfect! Everything works as it should. I'm really looking forward towards the next release :good::good::good::good::good:

[MENTION=3247702]nitroglycerine33[/MENTION]

I've been in contact with ktoonsez on hangouts who just recently switched over to verizon, I have a working 4.4 build with all the security bypassed, I just need to know what method you used to achieve data on a CDMA device. If you could PM me what you did I can have a working 4.4 out in no time with an updated KT kernel.

cheers and thanks in advance

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Z.Z.Z.:
Yay, can't wait. But would this rom work on devices not running kitkat?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ajm2387:
Did you ever get this figured out? I'm having the same issue. Voice typing isn't working either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] m-cat:
I had an issue before where I had to change the language from English US to English UK. After I did that search worked great.

Also, I'm safestrapped on MK2. Will this work for me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Nope
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yergo88:
I really love this ROM! but I can't mount my phone on my PC, and also when I say "hey google" my google search feature doesnt pop up..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
You are probably running a different kernel or one that needs manually switched to mtp mode to mount. The voice commands are part of the Google experience launcher from KitKat. Beings this ROM is from last summer that feature didn't even exist.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yergo88:
Hey, thanks for the quick reply. I'm using 3.4.0-1392595 se.infra@20302-#1 kernel, it's the one that came with this ROM stock. I'm using safestrap so I'm limited on the ROMS I can flash. I'd really like to mount my sd and extSD, and yes I did manually activate the MTPbecause as default it connects as installer for some reason. Using hyperdrive, both features work flawlessly, voice command and mounting, but I just want a smooth simple ROM like this one. I'm using the 4.4 launcher on this one and it's buttery smooth. I really don't want to go back to Hyperdrive :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] schwartz.matthew.e:
Anyone know if omnibeam works with this ROM?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yergo88:
I'd really like to see the mounting issues resolved, until then I'm sticking with eclipse TW because of its stability and everything functioning. But I love how light and compact Google edition is, I just wish my computer detected the sd card :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
There isn't a mounting issue. If there is change to a different kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Even if I updated it to 4.3 safestrap users would not be able to run it. The 4.3 and higher builds require an AOSP style kernel and will not work with a TW kernel. My Eclipse TW ROM will be the closest to AOSP you will get.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
Then is it possible for you to update your Eclipse TW version to 4.3 so I can use SS?

Thank you for the quick answer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Yup... You can follow the progress of my 4.3 builds on my site.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
Sorry to bother you alot, but will you tell me the site to go to?

------------------------------------------------------------------

NVM. I think I found the site. http://www.elementalxdesigns.com/ec...-4-3-MK2-MDK-users-Progress-Build06-(12-23-13)

Right? The next question is that can I install this using SS?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] warchyld77:
It doesn't boot on safe strap
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chroot:
It seems this ROM give me the same issues as all others. A black screen after reboot.

So odd... I'm sure it's not the ROM.

When I reboot I pass the safestrap boot loader and then the screen goes dark. I sat for 30 minutes on the black screen but to no avail.

As I mentioned, the only ROM that comes up is another eclipse rom but that one has the wrong kernel; thus no modules for GSM or wifi.

I really want to get to a more stock install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
I can't get wifi to turn on.

I've searched these posts and can only find help dealing with safestrap.

I clean flashed coming from hyperdrive, I'm still on MDK no safestrap, NC5 retail modem, ktoonz 3.4.54 kernel.

I've cleared dalvik and cache, and I've tried fixing permissions.

What can I do? I want to use this rom I can't stand 4.3 or 4.4 roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fatapia:
try a soft reboot, use xposed or power menu to do it. I had that issue on GE but a different rom, this was an issue for safestrap but it doesn't seem like you've tried that so maybe? GL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
No luck. I have no idea what the issue is. I clean reflashed and before I did anything else I checked wifi and it still won't turn on. I'm going to have to go to something else if I can't figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
You need an older baseband.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
That worked! I went back to mk2 and it fired right up.

Thanks!

Woohoo! You da man! Should we reboot, after installing 1.2, and then flash the patch, or can we flash the patch directly after flashing 1.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
You should be good to flash right after 1.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eakeller:
Thanks Nitro! Is a dirty flash OK, or is it best done clean?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Clean is always better but you should be fine with a dirty flash. Usually with major framework changes I wipe data.

Here's my wish list. I don't know if it's all possible, but i would love to see it, on this base.

1. Custom status bar options. (transparent, center clock, change color of icons)

2. Separate ringtones from notifications.

3. Quiet hours.

That's all I can think of right now, but I'm sure I'll remember something else, and have to come back and add to my list. :p

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] codyvance:
Happy birthday to me! Thanks for the update nitro
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] diaftia:
Ok... was just thinking that it might need to be reset and the OS has no way to do that given the current state of the code. I have seen some things where depending on the state of the data setting before the flash occured can have an effect on what happens once it does.

FWIW I just turned off WIFI and mine works fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Did you try the app though? Your sim could have been in the wrong state
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reaeg:
It might be related to my poor signal, which fluctuates around -100 but remains on LTE. Maybe TW can handle low signals better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I am not sure about that. I am over 105ish frequently with no issues.

Then I don't know what to think. I flash your TW and everything works. I flash this and my data doesn't work. I was only able to get it to work briefly by flashing to a different modem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Quiet hours might not be possible but some other items on your wish list are. :)

I have been dinking with the carrier and signal bars off and on but also working on a few other things at the moment. So it might be a little bit.
