that's true, friedrich's roms are always a masterpiece.

Just sayin, on the old bootloader, debloated with 0 bugs that I've found so far. :good::good::good:

gotta keep the old bootloader for warranty reasons for my country, but I'm always going to support friedrich's work if possible!!!

I'm stil on Echoe V8 but always had the same issue. I can make it work this way:

Try to double press Vol+ (play with different delay time betwwen the first and the second click, but be always more or less quick) and keep it pressed down the second time.

Hope this help.

I've got an issue when activating fast dormancy thingo, error in screen shot

Is this caused by old bootloader or something else?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] davtse:
Guys,

The fast dormancy fix for the i9300 still works for TW on i9505. If you have network signaled fast dormancy you can use this fix to enable fast dormancy AND eliminate most of the FD related wakelocks.

Hi, i am still on old bootloader with latest echoe 4.3 firmware and since the official samsung 4.4.2 firmware is released i am planning to update but have some questions:

1- Does it have all 4.3 features?

2- I read there is no way to go back to 4.3 with the new bootloader, is that true?

3- Are there any issues i should be aware of after flashing latest echoe 4.4.2 firmware with the instructions in the OP?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wolper13:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
Yes has all the same features I'm finding better battery life less memory hungry. There's no going back, never fear I highly doubt you will want to. As long as your aware of the Knox bootloader and what it means to flash it your good to go. If you flash the stock package through Odin first you won't have any issues. Enjoy :)

I flashed the stock package once and everything has been smooth from there. I find the Sammobile links very slow. There are a couple of mega links to the stock fw in this thread just before v16 got announced. Good luck :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gangsta101:
1. There is very little difference between 4.3 and 4.4.2, so i doubt you'd miss much. Haven said that, how about you figure out what it is you can't live without on 4.3 and see if its available on the new ROM

2. I think the Problem is "going back to 4.2.2 and not 4.3, but i could be wrong. I have switched back and forth on different ROMs but I have a phone from a different country so i couldn't say for sure. Also if your flashing the ROM with Recovery, you would just retain the new bootloader and have no problems going back to 4.3

3. As for issues to watch out for, well, if you're do flash the latest bootloader, then there seems to be nothing to fear. if you wanna remain on the Old BL, then make absolutely certain you custom install on AROMA and choose the right kernel

I got a word of advice. In aroma installer instead of "Bloatware" would be nice to see "pick what to install"! Otherwise it is unclear what do we choose. To delete or to install components. Thx. Other that that. Just installed, will give it a day to see how it will perform :)

With KT kernel on old boot loader I've experienced problem.

- no samsung sync

- the first time I've unlocked the screen the phone reboot

- after reboot, bootloop on the galaxy logo

Solved by this way:

- flashed an old ROM with odin

- flashed Echoe v 16 with jeboo kernel

Everything is ok now!

Have you checked the md5? Can it be corrupted?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gangsta101:
How about doing the deep clean as described some pages back? I.e Odin flash Stock and then try Echoe again?

Or try another recovery? There have been some Recovery related issues on v15, but not sure of v16

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
Have you done a full clean install? Make a format system from recovery before flashing with aroma and choose to wipe data while installing
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
Done all that. Latest philz. full wipe + factory. and then clean install and wipe. + full wipe in the echoe. still stuck at the logo. even tried all stock kernel/sounds/other **** ... don't know what to do. I've been waiting for about 10 minutes for it to move. but nothing happening.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
Ok serious bug:

OLD BOOTLOADER. this is just an FYI.

Tried to make a phone call and the phone crashed and rebooted. Now when i try and make calls, it beeps that its dialling... and nothing. calls never start ringing.

This happened after i enabled the xposed modules, so its probably third party tweak related (or even a local tower failure) just putting it out here in case someone else has the same problem.

edit: complete power off and power on fixed it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gangsta101:
Bro, do anything you can to get a stock ROM for your EXACT device. I'd recommend you download from MEGA, less chances of a download error.

Have you tried restoring your backup? Did the device boot properly?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MikeMaMan:
Downloading form Mega second time, i got "corrupted" while unpacking. Downloaded from torrent, same story. I did not do nandroid on this phone. I thought jumping from 14.1 on 16 wont be a big deal. i was on new bootloader already. Just flashed latest + modem. Phone boots ok into recovery and download. but hangs on kernel msg +logo if i do normal boot. and i can install echoe with any settings, it just wont get past that **** logo :/ shouldn't start this so late. got to wake up in 3 hours. don't know if i get to sleep today..

edit:

i don't know, downloaded second time from mega, and got corrupted extraction again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gangsta101:
