Great!! I brought some doubts

Battery life goes great here!

I have 2 dumb questions:

1- The ROM instalation has less than 1GB. Is it normal that after the installation I still have only 9,03GB of internal memory space?

2- Is it possible to have a totally clean flash of a ROM? I installed Barebone with the CWM but I noticed I still have very old files from older ROMs.

I would appreciate if you guys could make this questions clearer to me.

lag spike and some stutter lag while lag, even in low graphic intensive games like temple run 2. frequent drops in fps, like turning left right or inside tunnel..the lag is awful, came from full wipe, wiped cache wiped system wiped date wiped whatever

kernel problem? idk

oh by the way, the 3 way reboot aint working too, I tried hotboot and recovery, no response
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
1. Unfortunately yes :( Thats how it is with all Stock Roms... There's like 4-5 gb "wasted" and we are left with 9.5 something... But you seem like you a lot of "leftover" files...

2. Yes. If you use Philz Recovery go to "Mounts and storage", format/ data and then again "Mounts and Storage" and format/sdcard.

1 - sadly, yes. It's Samsung's built in limitation, as Friedrich himself told you (partition table, etc).

2 - yes! First time I saw this was through PhilZ recovery, there is an option to use (Clean ROM Install or something like that). That option actually fixed a whole lot of problems on my phone. :)

Already tried that. Are you having full screen when calling also? I had it in Final Bean and I loved it. I used the same photo.

I had the same issue with no sim service. Just reflash v17 with friedrich kernel and now is all right. I'm on NAD boot. and NB8 modem.

Guys need your help, got new sgs4, made same flash like on my old, the new one has home button delay. Wheres the problem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
If you don't like modified kernels much I recommend trying Adam kernel based on stock excellent battery life.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] RossFixxed:
Loop

That's the weird thing, you are correct but on the bootloader I had it simply did not flash the modem, ANY modem until I got the newer bootloader. I already had knox anyway so no issue there.

I tried 6 modems and about 50 flashes. Worked first time with both modem and boob flash!

It shouldn't happen... But it did, I can't fathom why.

Edit :I had UDMH8 bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
I've found that's generally caused by s-voice since double tap home is the default way to open it. If you don't use it I recommend debloating. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Trilis:
Okay, finally found the solution, it's kinda weird. Even tried gravity box disabling double tap nothing worked. Had to manually install svoice and recheck settings to remove opening via home key. Now it's working perfect ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
It's a fallacy to have to flash a modem twice.

I think it originated due to people using the power menu to get into download mode, only to find flashing the modem fails.

As long as you get into download mode by powering the device off, then hold power button until you feel the vibration then immediately pressing DOWN-VOL then it will work first time. I've flashed many modems this way and it always works.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Friedrich my friend, thanks a lot again. As always you did a great job for us. I flashed V17 yesterday (dirty over V16). The Aroma theme is awesome. (@Mussels84, I bet on your toilet Aroma you don't have a nice theme like that, hahaha.)

I first flashed the NB2 modem, after that the ROM with KT kernel. Wifi and mobile data was working right after boob up the phone. I couldn't flash the non.hlos.bin, Odin failed a few times. But no problem because everything works with my NAD boobloader. :good:

So what I wanna say is fried, you don't have to worry about anything. :good:

Acer has written some very nice posts about everything today, i agree in every point of him.
[MENTION=4714483]daxgirl[/MENTION]: it's nice to have people like you here, very much knowledge, some funny comments... That's what i love so much in this thread. :highfive:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gangsta101:
I had the delay as well, but mine was resolved after I disabled the Xposed torch. Seems the latest update automatically incorporated long press on home button to activate. Disabling it and doing a reboot got rid if that.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s.p.m:
I said I'd report back...

Used V17 all day today at work, Internet, emails, calls, messages

All day long and still got 52% battery left ?

I'm not finding ANY issues at all, wifi perfect, full screen caller ID perfect..

it just couldn't get any better!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] loselvis777:
You have to flash with the kt kernel, or you will lose wifi also.

Maybe its a settings problem. Did you go in to settings, the network, and mobile network?

Yes, I have full screen also when I call.

I install v17 over to v16. ...just wipe cache e dalvik-cache.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] maffz:
I have tried the I9505VJUFNB2 MODEM with the V17 and it didn't work.

the NB8 was used when downgrading to V16 to see if it helped but neither did that.

P.S

I tried a fogg simcard and it worked. I got full service etc. but that is just an internet only card.

I have tried with other cards with the same operator and they are all locked. unfortunately I don't have any cards from other operators to try out at this point but I will do that tomorrow and update you guys with how it went.

One more thing. If it is the bootloader. where do I find stock ones or do they come with when I flash the stock rom with odin?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Lao Mayer:
I did the same, coming from 16 to 17 and wiped caches, several times actually, still nothing.

I also think that 17 is a very good ROM. I don't mind not having a full transparent caller. I just loved it in Final Bean. I didn't have it in 16 either.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
If you flash stock with Odin it includes everything.

Guys, what is the best philz touch recovery version for flashing echoe roms? I just lost root and my custom recovery which is philz touch 5.18 when I flashed v17. I reverted back to old philz touch 5.10 and restored v16.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Acer4605:
for philz touch I'd go back to version 6.0.7.9

especially for the kitkat roms
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kraven0731:
Thanks. I will try that version.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ranger4740:
Now that echoe uses aroma installer it doesn't really matter which version of philz you use.

I am using newest version 6.19.6 with no issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Batfink47:
See post #16164

Worked for me :)

Also for anyone still having issues with wifi/network the official 4.4.2 UK (XXUFNB8) with CSC (BTU) has just appeared on Sammobiles latest list:) Might be worth a shot flashing that before Echoe v17?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ra6o74:
Hi, again!

Last night re-flashed rom just to test something. In Aroma changed CSC from DBT (default) to BTU, used stock S4 launcher and again talexop kernel included, OG Battery mod, Full Screen Caller ID:good::fingers-crossed:;):D:o

And like I said before I'm on FNB8 bootloader and modem... And EVERYTHING is working perfect - I mean Wi-Fi, including that I have a camera shortcut on the lock screen. Battery life is much-much better than 4.3.

Good luck Echoe!!!!!!

I'm not sure if this is a problem only for those still on the old bootloader, but for any of you who are unable to get any mobile data (3g HSPA etc) and you are on a 4.4+ modem, then try flashing a 4.3 modem (eg. XXUEMKE)

I'm on a GE ROM currently with MGA bootloader, and was using XXUFNBE modem. Wifi and radio (1G) was working perfectly but mobile data (E, G, 3G, H, and even unrelated LTE) was dead. Flashing MKE modem worked for me.

tadaima!!!

I missed Echoe Rom! The only stable rom for my s4! :) I came from NB8 Stock ROM and flashed Echoe ROM V17 by just flashing the modem (found in echoe website)

TWICE

via Odin. After the first flash, I turned my phone off and entered Download Mode again, and then flashed the modem for the 2nd time. I rebooted my phone to check if the modem has been updated (and it did). I then flashed Echoe v17 via TWRP recovery and cleared data, cache, system and dalvik. I chose KT Kernel from Aroma Installer. Then I restored backup via TB. aaaand everything is good and working :) So far, no lags. I had lags with stock NB8+KT kernel and battery drain was bad. So happy to be back with Echoe. Echoe is the first rom I flashed on my S4. ^_^

Echoe ROM + KT Kernel = Happy S4 :) I managed to get 4hrs screenon on 18hrs discharge. I never got 3hrs screen on with stock ROM.

I also made my own sig for Echoe :) I hope it's okay :) If we have the same info, then feel free to use it :)

I hope I can manage to stay with v17.. I'm sort of a... flashaholic XD
