How come I have tried to download v16 5 times now and each time the mega download has stopped before finishing the download. Usually at about 75%. I have tried both mega links. The problem is that I'm on a limited Internet connection and I have now wasted about 6 gig of it . Grrrrr
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kafej666:
Problem is on your side. Good luck
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Acer4605:
please do not post links without permission from the Op the links to bootloader and modem can be found on the echoerom download page.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] poyda69:
Hi.

I have installed V16 since you released it and it is beautiful, Thank you for your hard work.

I only have 1 small issue the phone has locked up twice, once when unlocking the phone and once when i went to the app screen.

I installed the ROM with friedrich 420's Stock Repacked kernel, I will try other kernels to see if this is the issue but can someone give me a link to

the "friedrich 420's Stock Repacked kernel" please? :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wolper13:
Hi!

Just a quick question again.

I understand that if I have the new bootloader and new modem I can not go back to android 4.3. Is it also the same with nandroid backup? Cause I have 3 nandroid backup of 4.3 on my extsd card and thinking of deleting all of them cause it has no more use and its taking up a lot of space.

My phone is working very good and no problems at all, so I was thinking making a new nandroid of 4.4

thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Acer4605:
remove the .MD5 and you will be fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
You can keep them as you can still use them..

It' s impossible to downgrade via odin but is fine with custom rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
It is corrupted, i downloaded it 3 times from 3 different places. And they all corrupted. Just back from work. Had old flip sammy, which don't even recognize my SIM. Used it as an alarm clock, cos i only slept 1.5 hours since last morning 6am. I am trying to download firmware on my friends PC. I hope it will DL and extract. so i cant flash it. And another weird thing, all my old kitkat leaks told me they are corrupted when i tried to add it to Odin.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
Just make sure you remove the .md5 suffix if you are flashing with odin should work this way..

Anyway when i said to check the md5 i was referring to the rom' s one.. that could have been the reason of the logo stuck
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
Where can i find md5? i went through few dl sites and cant find it anywhere!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
On afh is in download page.. for mega is the same of afh.. or give me 5 min and i' ll edit.. ;)

When you have it make a comparison with the one from the rom you downloaded using a program like " md5sum" or something like..

md5 v16

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Acer4605:

hi, i have 4.3 custom rom(echoe) with old bootloader and custom recovery(knox still 0x0) . How can i do this 4,4,2 update without changing the knox? if i will flash stock 4.4.2 firmware from sammobile and after this last echoe rom is it ok? a lot of thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
I'm sorry but is not clear... How it came that you ,with the knox bootloader, have flashed a custom recovery and a rom and knox is still 0X0 ?!?!?!??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
If you flash the stock firmware first, you will have the new bootloader and Knox. You have to flash V16 and choose jeeboo kernel. And you need to Odin flash the NB8 modem.

---------- Post added at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Good question. I think he has the boobloader without Knox. Like mga or whatever.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kvlq:
first i had 4.2.2 stock(from store).After that i flashed echoe custom 4.2.2 and custom recovery(philz touch). After i flashed 4.3 custom rom(echoe, with old bootloader - 4.2.2). thats all.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
So when you boot into download mode, you see nothing about Knox in the upper left, am I right?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kvlq:
yes, there's nothing about knox. So which are the steps to flash 4.4.2 last echoe rom without having the knox 0x1? Should i flash before this echoe the 4.4.2 DBT stock firmware from sammobile for better results?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
Oh ok.. that 0x0 confused me :)

My suggestion is flash the rom as you are.. make a custom install in aroma and pick jeboo kernel... no needed to flash the new bootloader first
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
As I said, if you flash the stock firmware, you will have Knox. And when you than flash a custom recovery, your Knox is 0x1. So as far as i know, only flash the NB8 modem with Odin, then flash the V16 via recovery. While in Aroma installer, choose Jeboo Kernel.

This should be the right way I think. (I'm on new BL and i don't care about knox).

EDIT: Wuby -Speedy Gonzalez- was faster again. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kvlq:
and it will works as well as 4.4.2 with new bootloader works? or there are some differences between flashing NB8 modem with echoe 4.4.2 and 4.4.2 stock flashed before echoe 4.4.2 ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
I think boot loader is not intellectual property of respected Friedrich420. So it is not against the rules ;) Let me know if i am wrong.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Some users on old bootloader told about some issues. You are save when you make a nandroid backup, then flash echoe V16 with Jeboo Kernel. If for some reasons wifi not works, flash only the NB8 modem via Odin. If something goes wrong you can restore your backup and you can flash back your old modem (baseband).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] davtse:
Fried already stated it was a misunderstanding in the previous page. Stop the argument and move along please...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
Ok, Problem sorted by installing Official KitKat. And i compared MD5 of Echoe, and it was different. So i guess it was a reason. But i did not expect it to be installed many times and always tell me what "installation completed successfully" if it is not complete. Anyway, lesson learned. Just need to use it next time :D Echoe is not installed, yet. Will do it next day. Cos i did not sleep for more than 36 hours. My problem was bad download of ALL files. I downloaded from 3 different sources, and all files were broken. Even on my second windows. My PC need some lessons :D ... Friends PC managed to download and flash original FW without any problems. So no blame on the ROM.

Thanks to all who tried to help me.

I'm glad for you. But it seems to me like you've got some serious PC troubleshooting ahead of you mate.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
Yeah i know. I got two Windows'es 8.1 and 7, and both on SSD, both let me down. They work, but something is not right there. And i got problems with BF4 :D Anyway ill DL echoe 16, check MD5, and only after this ill try to install it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:

I am not so sure about this modem. The last one was fab in Echoe15 but this new one gets hot :/ I have re flashed 3 times in case it was that but it's not. Bleh.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] shadeofgrey:
Mine seems to be getting a little hot as well. I don't know if it's just an initial burn in period or what, as I just flashed earlier today.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] grumpySasquatch:
I would just revert, modems can be used freely without much issue. A lot of times I'll stick on an older one cause its better for the area I live in.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jeremy.martinus:
Hello all. Please excuse me I'm new here. I've managed to get V15 up and running without major issues.

My current setup is:

Model No : Samsung GALAXY GT-I9505 LTE

Echoe ROM V15

Current Recovery : ClockworkMod 6.0.4.4

Android Version : 4.2.2

Baseband Version : I9505XXUEMJ5

Bootloader: I9505XXUEMJ5

Kernel: Jeboo

I'd like very much to flash V16. How do I go about this? I'd like to keep my settings, apps and data intact if possible. Do I need any additional files? Can anyone guide me please?

Thanks for your patience.

Warm regards :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
Well you can keep your data but you'll loose settings for home screen and so on as it is coded in script for install.. Just pick jeboo kernel again in custom install
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jeremy.martinus:
So all I have to do is flash v16 in recovery? How about factory reset, wipe data, dalvik cache and format system?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] snwman:
Noticed one bug. Could be down to old bootloader but not to sure. When I plug in my earphones the icon does not show up like v15 but still works which is odd. Anyone else have this. And I haven't done anything to make it happen.

Running all same as v15
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wolper13:
Hi! My screen rotation suddenly is not working anymore. Any ideas?

I just plugged my earphone and no icon showing in status bar.

I'm in v16 using jeboo kernel and old bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] speedyranger:
Same configuration, but with dirty install: v16 over to v15.

I don't understand what is this?

When I swipe, tell me application not installed and go to play store but is not found.

ECHOE Team Thanks so much for another fantastic rom!

So, dirty flash and shortcut camera still here....but never I used...but is cool to have.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mannybiker:
For sure it's me, but I have some difficulties to understand what will be missing in Echoe 16 compared to the Android 4.3 Echoe versions.

This is because I see that for instance there are questions about full screen caller for 4.4, so should this mean that it is not included in the Echoe 16 rom like it was before?

At the same time there are also KK base modifications like the external SD writing rights, so it would be useful to know if the fix in the platform.xml is implemented in the rom or not.

I think it would be helpful to have a list of features that will be missing once upgraded to kk echoe 16 (the first official 4.4) from the last 4.3, if these exist.

If I can ask one more question, does it worth for someone like me on old bootloader to wait for some kernel update in order to have all the bugs fixed (like the lockscreen config page) or it will never happen and we will need to sacrify our warranty installing the new BL if we want to upgrade to 4.4 with a fully working rom?

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
My friend I can answer to a few of your questions..

As of now NOTHING is missing from v16 compared to 4.3 versions. The full caller id for kk roms was just implemented by carotix but im not sure if ill include it in next updates..

Platform.xml is of course fixed ;)

The kernel sources were just released so new kernels will come out soon... therefore I would wait a few days if I were you...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mannybiker:

Added Knox cleaning for Stock roms

Adding Odex support for stock rom (and future echoe and other rom plans)

Fixed few issues !

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Scope2:
I am currently running v14.1 and I am extremely happy with the performance and battery life (way better than FH 4.3 ever was), so I am reluctant to upgrade to V16, however a part of me wants to upgrade to the latest version, so before I do I would like to check if I need to upgrade anything other than the modem.. I am currently running:

Baseband: i9505XXUFNA5

Bootloader: i9505XXUFNA5

Am I right in thinking I only need to upgrade modem (from Odin), then Rom (from recovery)?

Hi echoe team. First, just wanna say I'm a huge fan and been using echoe since jb. And then flashed v16 and working flawlessly. So my friend ask me to flash hos phone as well. Tried first with the old bootloader and jello kernel, worked great. Then found some bugs like lock screen issues. So decided to flash fnad bootloader then friends kernel then got some problems. Flashed it the same way I did the first time. Then now lags tremendously. Completed flashing until info set up. But if you lock the phone, it doesn't work. Then screen time out. Then pressing power or home button, Dies not work. Then phone will show lock screen then freeze. Any help will be greatly appreciated. And sorry for the long post. TIA.
