Now that I looked back at PM that I needed for info on the post above this, I just realized one of the apps mentioned was one in the same you asked about, but it was for darkslide also, so it should work. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
I am not too sure why it does that..

It hasn't done that for me yet?

I updated to the new ME7 baseband today thanks to Cruiserdude, for pointing out there were flashable .zips for both MDK and ME7 modems, (which I added to the send OP) as well and just re-opened camera to see and that didn't do it. :confused:

Glad to hear everything is running smooth, though!

Transparent status bar I am working on, I may just make a stock transparent add-on to keep everyone at bay until I can work it into my Aroma add-on, along with transparent status bar pull down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MrKleen1:
I am running version 1.1.3. I live to flash roms but after a short trial I keep coming back.

This rom just seems to do it for me.

Thank you once again. I look forward to future builds when the S4 gets its update to 4.3 in October.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
haHaa. You won't even see any difference in 4.3. Mostly security upgrades. :cool:

I really can't seem to think of anything else I want in this rom. I'm content with it but I'm sure I'll think of something eventually
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
andy using your rom with safestrap, cannot get bluetooth remote controls working any ideas, could it be a kernel issue......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Good guess. Have seen it reported as kernel dependent. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
so other people have reported this problem, not saying that this was to good to be true but i knew somethings would start to come up eventually as you get into using the rom as a daily driver, if its kernel dependent that means that hash has to do something on his end then i suppose?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Have seen reported on other devices that I follow and help mod such as Note 2. I'm still on S3 as I have not seen any device this year worth a $700 upgrade. May be an Xposed module for it. I don't keep up with all those. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Does this rom have the nfc behavior on lockscreen. I'm trying out custom roms to see who the latest version of wallet doesn't want to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
how do you suppose that the stock or any kernel would be on my end.

I use stock.

stock uses stock.

This ROM is stock + ONLY MODs I felt were safe and don't hurt or slow the ROM down. but not being able to use the me7 stock kernel isn't my fault, it's Samsungs and their damn locking of our boot loaders so damn tight.

I suppose the one upside to safestrap is you'll be fully on ME7 firmwre kernel, etc..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
If you read my friend I said hash not you,I know its not on your end because I can reproduce the same problem on different roms, and if its kernel dependent that means that its something that going on once we flash the rom to safestrap because when I was on your rom before I got my 32gig I didn't have any issues with bluetooth....sorry if I offended you or caused any confusion. ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
relax, it was a mis-read. trying to stay on top of this many projects is proving difficult

same point still applies I believe though, unless hash is good with kernels and makes them?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
I dont know, thats a good question though, I asked him about it and he said to ask you, meaning rom developers so I dont know what going on just hope that someone can resolve the issue....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
First thing is I don't know about Andy but I have no clue what Blutooth Controls refer to. :rolleyes::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
This is a called BoneSTOCK ROM

it's mostly stock

I didn't touch bluetooth, nor am I any special dev, never claimed to be.

so this is how it would work on stock ROM

unless safestrap does something, i never used it..

it could be kernel dependent, you are on stock????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
Bluetooth comtrols are when you connect your phone to head phones or car stereo and control the music from that device and not the phone....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Has been a problem since S3 device release on some headsets and car heads. Even Samsung claims it is fixed on Note 3 for some cars didn't work on before. May need to contact device manufacturer for compatibility. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
Bluetooth controls work in my car.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Sounds like he needs a new head unit or another app that is being used to control it due to being not OEM car Head.. Have seen where it was a phone app hookup and app dev refused to fix. Also some OEM car Heads are not compatible. That is what Samsung is trying to fix with Note 3. Was not compatible with all car OEM systems. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
Are you using safestrap?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Don't see where safestrap would be a game changer. Still using hardware/software and kernel. Safestrap is outside the system and just bypasses the bootloader. Shouldn't affect how the rom or hardware/radios run. if so GPS and calls wouldn't work either (the other 2 radios). Your just moving the software/kernel partition. The hardware still in same place using same software/kernel. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
unfortunately i am using safestrap with andy's bone stock rom, i have used his rom before and this issue never came up, but once i use his rom or any rom that is compatible with safestrap this issue arises, i was just looking for insight not a fix, i've been around since verizon gnex days and i know better than too ask a developer to fix a problem that they didn't create...lol;)

---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

with safestrap we do have to flash a kernel modules zip to get wifi ,gps and data working, cause without i that zip none of it works, im wondering if that where the problem comes in at, well thanks for this spirited discussion off to contact hash and tell him what i found out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Haven't studied up on safestrap but my understanding was they only moved the partitions. Makes more sense now. No wifi/GPS/data works without the kernel modules on any device/kernel. The bluetooth stack/module/libs may be broken or not included. Sounds to me Safestrap may end being as iffy as AOSP if that is the case and have to homebuild specialized kernels for it to work. may have a broken RIL on the Bluetooth side. Seen that many times on ports. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Never using safestrap I am of no use :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
HaHaa. me either. Just trying to use logic to understand it. It may have went deeper than it should have to make it work. That is kinda how it sounds. Shouldn't have to flash kernel modules separate. Should still use original kernels with modules built in. Just change partitions. Sounds like Kellex would even be better.:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
ugh, depends, loki i dont think we use modules which is why dev edition phones had issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Have to have modules in lib folder or no wifi, data or blutooth. They are included with bootimage. All bypasses should do same thing they just move and put in different unlocked writable (RW) partition. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
I know this,

but

something to do with wifi modules got wifi working on dev edition phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
I have safestrap installed but haven't tried on the SS ROM. You only have to flash the modules if you're flashing a ROM with a different kernel because I believe the two ROMsshare the kernel. The modules are located in system/bin/lib/modules. They're on every ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
Just finished testing...

I am on MDK so not using Safe Strap but after reading all this about the music controls and bluetooth I wanted to give some input.

Hopefully this may shed some light on what could be causing it not to work.

The bluetooth controls work fine on bonestock using the stock kernel in the op.

I use faux kernel mainly so I can get smart stay to work.

Using faux kernel the bluetooth controls do not work.

So I'm thinking it is going to be kernel related.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Dev edition didn't have latest Verizon modules. Had old modules. Modules changed with ME7. Most every time Verizon changes the kernel they tweak the modules to match. :cool:

---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Makes sense Gadget. Keep bringing the info. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
Thank you gadget for this insight ,I'm glad you reproduced this issue because I didn't want people to think I'm crazy, but what I'm realizing is that no one uses there phone the same I'm dependent on bluetooth controls working, wifi hot spot and google wallet working so when I flash a rom these are the things that I look to first to get working but not everyone utilizes there phone the same way that's probably why no came with this issue. ......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prdog1:
Yea. I don't use Bluetooth conrols, Wifi hotspot works on every rom for everyone and don't deal with Google Wallet since Google has decided to not really support it. :laugh::cool:

on extra extra side note guys, I just got told my step-dad has to get open-heart surgery. There is a 99% success rate, so I am optimistic as it could be much worse. But such a healthy guy all his life, recently just broke his most weight for bench press, routine check-up and not only does he have afib, but an irregular heart-beat. I share this with you guys because these next few weeks I will not be around much.

The ROM itself should hopefully be bug free. But I did want to let you guys know this is why I won't be around that much in the next month or so.

Barebones theming

Before I started to build my own ROM's I wanted to get my feet wet with the S4 layout, mods, etc.

To do that I thought I would do a little theming of a really good ROM. So, I picked this one.

Since it is specific to this ROM (won't break anything like tweaks) I see no reason to start a separate thread.

If you like a little light theming give it a try. You can always restore your backup.

If you don't want the black phone and contacts remove them from the zip before flashing.

So, what is themed:

Blacked out phone and contacts

Launcher all apps icon

Just about every status bar icon (Signals, e-mail, messaging, etc.)

Some application icons like mail and mms

Emoticons (Also fixed heart)

Popups and notifications

And then some

See screenshot below. (Clock is HD Widgets)

Installation: Flash in recovery. It will automatically wipe dalvik so you will see the application updating on boot. Will not wipe your data.

Download

Enjoy!!!!

Hey bones, when you made the rom did you yourself take apart the mdk boot.img and and modify the zimage and ramdisk?

No issues on any me7 roms in safestrap. Let me know and ill take a look at your boot.img

I would "search this thread" but that feature seems to be down. I know a few people have asked but has anyone got this rom to work with safe strap. Mine will boot and it seems to work (i did not fully test it) except the wifi will not turn on.

I've personally read about little more then half of this post from when Bones broke his phone to the awesome response to help get it fixed to about 20 pages back from the end trying to find an answer to my question but I couldn't find an answer most likely the answer is going to be on the pages I didn't read. Hey Bones the way you told us how you felt with the donations that you revived to help get your phone fixed was I felt truly heart felt I I'm also sorry to hear about your StepFather I truly hope everything goes good. In closing I want to thank you for all the days and hours you put into making your Rom and keeping it up to date also helping with questions and problems that we who could never do what you and the other Dev's do come up with, thanks Brother.

The bad modules will break wifi and or data ,don't remember, but should not keep device from booting. A no boot is usually a bad download. The correct kernel and modules should be flashing with the rom. If using safestrap, I have no clue. :cool:
