Looking for a way to get rid of that nasty block in notifications I found that you can edit build.prop - >

ro.product.name=SM-N900S

ro.product.device=SM-N900S

and by magic you will get the new s5 status bar and active apps.

Also, you can enable search (top left corner) by adding the attached file in system/priv-app and set the right permissions.

Only way to fix Wifi is using Ktoonz kernel?

I like to use the repacked stock kernel.

I have flashed the new modem but still not working.

any help?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thank you :)

I really appreciate it!!!

I have been wondering for a while now whether to actually remove v17 given how AWFUL it seems to be.... (Please i dont mean it as a threat but why keep something that apparently is so AWFUL there?)

Im kind of sick of wondering all the time whether im using the same rom and/ or phone ... :(

Even comments about wrong names and wrong kernels??

That bad, ah??

v17 has been the most domoralizing Echoe i have ever released and its making me really sad given what it took to make and release it ...

If i just came on xda and read the last 10-20 pages i would never ever flash Echoe...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ra6o74:
Hello!

I have to say that EVERYTHING is working just out of the box. I'm with FNB8 (boot and modem), chose almost stock configuration in Aroma, except launcher (my choice was Note3 and OG Battery Mode) and talexop kernel (included). Wi-Fi is faster than ever. I probably, must re-enable animations cos scrolling it too fast also.

P.S I did all possible wipes before and select full wipe during installation:cowboy:

Good luck everyone!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Acer4605:
My Dear and amazing CHIEF, why O why do you think this is the worsed ROM you ever released, It's a great ROM however with the various options you implemented in the with no doubt unique and wonderfull Aroma installer it's obvious that the problem area is greated then ever, and even knowing this you and your defs continue to give Support and guide the people to the right direction, without loosing your temper what so ever.

This is the Strength of the Echoe ROM

- timeless support in every meaning of the word

- a team of DEFS and MASTERCHIEF willing to tempt something that has never done before and making a succes of that.

- The features of this ROM are without any doubt Unique

- To my knowledge there are no other Rom builders arround who give such a variation of installation options in their ROM.

- Despite the Disbelief of the Mastercook it's the greatest Rom ever

- Give us time to get used to this Rom and the feedback will better.

So having said this I'm jumping on the plane to "slap you in the face" in order to get out of this depri mode you are in to.:laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] angeloumbao:
It's not "that bad" as you think! to be honestly grateful I now did flash the rom successfuly! And the culprit? It's just a bad download. And it's my first time to encounter that kind of problem so I have to ask questions because seriously I tried everything I googled and what I know still no luck. But in the end after the redownload it's good to go. And I think I'm one of those people you said about "wrong names of kernel" well, it's just that maybe "IDK about those programming things" that's why I'm one of the person who pointed at that but it's not really a problem to me. And came into my thinking, maybe wrong kernels are being flashed or what because when i choose the talextop kernel it would say Jeboo kernel is being install not what is chosen and so on. But not really a big deal. And now my problem is over another +1000000 to this ROM!! I'm glad to be part of this community I learn a lot of things from the team and the people in here. And I'm glad I got my problem because I learned from it! Don't worry fried! Still one of the best rom out HERE! :good: :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
I've been with you from the start my friend and I believe I'm loving V17 more than any other version yet. From what I have been seeing this bl stuff is causing issues for every rom. 4.4 has created a lot of issues and in my mind (and I'm sure all the Echoeians) is no reflection on you or your masterful work. We're all behind you 100%.

I'm guessing Samsung will keep making this bootloader stuff harder and harder. That's why I made the personal choice of flashing the full stock 4.4 firmware and since then I couldn't be happier. Everything works perfectly. So smooth so fast such battery life. V17 to me is another wonderful chapter in the blissful life of Echoe.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Im kind of lost about how to help or solve these issues... and its even more confusing because except for my screw up with the nasty block in notification panel, I cannot replicate any of the other issues people are reporting...

Maybe what you are doing should be the way to go.. flash stock beforehand and you are good to go...

But I still dont understand 95% of the issues reported...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ranger4740:
[MENTION=4401403]friedrich420[/MENTION] please don't be disheartened my friend, your work has been exemplary so far.

I do admit to flashing v17 and seeing flaws which made me sad too (blue box, wifi not working for me out of the box, I haven't looked into fixing it yet with the build.prop mod or new modem). But I'd say it's those nasty Samsung software devs that put bad things inside. Maybe a new bootloader version deliberately to mess up your great work?

But mate, I'm sorry for you and knowing a little bit about the effort you have put in only to feel so sad.

Chin up my friend things can only get better with a little help from your friends....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
theres bugs. none of them make the rom unusable. dont be so upset friedy.

the main things a 17.1 update would need:

1. update Ktoonz kernel (not your fault - he updates a lot)

2. provide a warning somewhere? that new bootloader need latest 3g+LTE modems, and old bootloader need latest 3G modem. that solves most issues.

3. add in the file to fix that random block thing.

4. put camera back on lock screen? :D

these are MINOR issues. no ones got random reboots. no ones got crashes, or force closes on a fresh install. overall its still pretty damn good.

1. .....

2. from OP:

-	ADDITIONAL NOTES:

FOR USERS ALREADY ON NEW B/L: You only need the I9505VJUFNB2 Modem and you can use any kernel offered in Aroma (stock, stock repacked or customs)

FOR USERS ON OLD B/L: Use one of the Custom Kernels offered in Aroma Installation either KT kernel or Jeboo kernel. If you will flash the I9505VJUFNB2 Modem, just flash the modem.bin and not the non-hlos.bin.

3. They fixed it already thers a link a couple of pages before..

4. Delete customer.xml from the csc folder of the CSC you used in Aroma... For stock csc (ZTO) it's deleted..

1. :P updates, updates, updates!

2. oh look, you mean its NOT your fault? ;)

3. yes, but that fix will clearly go into what build comes next. i'm not asking for a re-release, i'm saying 'if this rom were to get patched'

4. i left that at default because i had no idea what to choose there. makes sense.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ink0gnito:
after reading a long time in this thread i decided to flash this rom. coming from latest 4.3 DBT i did the following:

did a full wipe for clean install in philz recovery

flashed stock DBT I9505XXUFNB8

used cf-autoroot

flashed philz recovery again

flashed Echoe v16

sat up all my stuff

result: everything working flawlessly. great rom, thanks to the team and all contributers!

now running this setup for about 2 weeks i couldn't resist to flash nb9 modem (thx [MENTION=2601728]leoniedelt[/MENTION] for your report about battery draining that convinced me and infos about where to get the two modems, saved me some search time)

flashed ktoonsez kernel (build mar, 9 2013)

tested if it's running (all ok)

flashed both "normal" and lte modem twice without rebooting (just went straight to d/l-mode after flashing a modem file

result: all ok. no issues i'm aware of.

again: thank you for your fantastic work on this rom @ Echoe Team :good:

Latest KT kernel, out just now

Change Log 03.10.2014

1. Improved Sweep 2 wake recognition.

2. Ignore double tap if more than 1 finger is used.

3. New option for "Hold Wake Lock for wake" called "Enabled ONLY while charging" so you can choose to only hold wake lock during charging.

4. Added wake lock montitor so wake locks can be kicked back on if they are killed prematurely.

5. New "Prox value when clear" added so you can specify the prox value to allow the screen wakes to still work when your prox is not functioning properly/dirty.

6. New item under "Tools" called "Prox Sensor Checker". Click it start/stop the monitor timer. Use this to see what you 100% clear prox value is, then add 20 to that number and use it for the "Prox value when clear" value mention in #5 above.

7. LEDs: Added some code that was needed on the TW version to catch all the notification scenerios.

8. Fix the issue where touch screen would become unresponsive on TW ROMs.

Rebooted the phone

Factory reset

Flash/reflash modem for v17

Flash/reflash kernels for v17

Flashed back to v16

Flashed I9505XXUNB8 MODEM

Flashed I9505XXUNAD Bootloader

Flashed back to stock both I9505XXUFNB9 and I9505XXUFNB8

Checked SIMLOCK status = Unlocked

I have also changed CSC by flashing different ones and Factory reset/Clear cache

did you go into recovery through the restart menu or did you shut your phone down and used the power on + volume down button?

then use Odin 3.09 to flash the modem

it's very important that you use the last option, I don't know why but that's the only way that it will work correctly.
