What battery issue? Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorioo:
What was the screen time. Your browser is using 3-4 times your screen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
Screen time was around 4 or 5 hours. Browser sucked more battery because I was downloading newer versions of ROMs and GApps while the screen was off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
not fair.. Misc says 85 percent for me.. Gonna dirty flash 11 25
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shaftamle:
You should try wake lock detector to pinpoint the problem. Possibly a rouge app or one not compatible with 5.0?

My location icon is constantly staying on. I'm getting high location battery use from Google Play Services and Google Search. Anybody else having this issue as well? I'm using PA gapps micro 5.0 alpha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Seriously though? how did you get that battery life? with medium use I get 6 or 7 hrs. Huge misc drain. Which nightly are you on?

Camera seems broken on 11/26

Home button wake - FTW!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vanberge:
I'm thinking you did this with wifi off ?

My misc drain is nuts and so far turning off NFC/freezing NFC with TiBu has not helped. I can't see myself going back to Kitkat though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] deviouskind:
I'm sorry if this is wrong to ask but I see you can't use SafeStrap to install CM.

Can someone point me in the right direction to be able to install this rom?

I am currently on Safe strap running Empty Galaxy Rom NC2 base.

How would I have to reconfigure my phone to install this?

And if I do switch to a different recovery, would I be able to use it to install or restore roms I have had success with?

Thanks, appreciate the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shaftamle:
You answered your own questions. It can't be installed on safe strap. You need mdk. So short of buying a used s4 with mdk still installed, your out of luck. Sorry

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] deviouskind:
Thanks man. So there is no way to downgrade to MDK? MDK is the Baseband Version im guessing?

Like NC2, NC5, NC6... Etc.

I just dont understand this S4 and all its weirdness. Its genius you guys figure it out but some goes over my head.

Luckily its just a play toy I got at work.

My daily driver is a Note 2 and it seems so easy and self explanatory compared to this S4.

I can install CWM and flash anything from CM to TW roms...

Thanks again! but :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorioo:
No way to downgrade. And it's only getting worse so be aware of that when you upgrade from your note 2. I'm switching to nexus as soon as they're reliably for sale to avoid having to jump through hoops to install whatever I want. Just be aware that things have gotten more complicated since note 2 for Samsung phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shaftamle:
Unfortunately there is no way to downgrade. Verizon ruined that. Mdk was the firmware that the s4 shipped with when it was released. Its the only firmware that allows a non safestrap recovery, also known as "Loki". Verizon patched the ability to unlock the boot loader with their first OTA which was me7. There a few non TW Roms out there that are safe strap compatable, but unfortunatly, this is not one of them. Sorry, Verizon sucks. They like to take away all the fun. :mad:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Sorry, you need to have an MDK based S4 in order to use Loki to unlock the phone. I suggest that you sell your current S4 and pick up an MDK version on Swappa or ebay. [emoji111]

Man, 69 pages of posts. I guess I have some reading to do........
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
Yeah, it's a beta, but I think it's stable. I know you're a big bt guy and know that bt is broken on these builds. It connects with no problem, but the speed is only .5x. I don't listen to music on my phone, but I listen to podcasts for 6 hrs a day, so it's almost a showstopper, but I'm living with it.

If you're a big music via bt user, you might sit this out for a few more builds.

I think you have a pretty high pain threshold though. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
Interesting question.

I use TWCP to backup, wipe dalvik & flash ROMS. Now that Lollipop uses ART, I would assume wiping dalvik is a completely useless step. If I use TWCP to wipe dalvik is it now wiping ART? Do dalvik/art occupy the same space?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Was wondering when you'd pop in here lol it's actually fairly stable. 11/26 build finally added home button wake but camera is borked. Hopefully 11/27 will resolve that.

Ok, Time to make the jump from CM11 the Euro's CM12, anything I should know?. I've skimmed through much of the thread but haven't read everything. I'm guessing the biggest thing that may affect me and not be 100% is BT, but I can deal. My biggest question is a recommended Gapps package. I've always faired best with the PA flavor. Anyone have a link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Go to the pa gapps web site. Link for 5.0 gapps is in the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I'm guessing that would be the Alpha package. I'm on it. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Yes! That's the latest 5.0 gapps that I have found.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bsimpson1:
I believe the super user issues are caused by dirty flashing from 10.1. The superuser app thinks it already granted permission to apps that require granting permission again after upgrading to a new android. Try uninstalling and reinstalling all your root apps and thrn superuser should re-allow you to grant permission the next time you open them.

---------- Post added at 06:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 AM ----------

I wouldn't recommend installing supersu because cyanogenmod already has a super user app built in.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rustynutzz:
No, everybody's force closes after snapping a pic. Also, the gallery will show a grey pic if you use the HDR setting with the regular camera. Weird.

Well, I guess I have to get use to a new ROM and Android Version again. Just flashed 11/27 and I must say it's very smooth. I need to go through everything and get it all setup.

I do have a question. Some time ago I downloaded the hacked Adobe flash for 4.4.x. Has anyone tried to see if it works on 5.0 or is there a better option?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AmericanCon:
OK, just flashed the 11/27 and messaging is working. Most likely user error and I am ashamed [emoji20]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
I dirty flashed 11/27 over 11/26 and all is well. Messenger works well. I'm really enjoying the color changes with each conversation. For being alpha builds they're already good enough for me to be my DD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
On 11 26 there is no verizon apn option and you can't change it. Doea 27 fix it?

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

Also whats with the cwm zip in 27?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AmericanCon:
Ok, another update.

I froze a few gapps such as play videos and email exchange etc and the messaging FC's started again. I unfroze the applications but that didn't work.

I proceeded to re flash the gapps package and reboot but again, that didn't work. It wasn't until I flashed the ROM again (without a wipe) that the messaging apps work. Oddly enough, Line messaging still FC's.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:

Great suggestion to freeze NFC. My battery life went from 8 hrs to the usual 16.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Ok, been running this all day. I must say, very nice! Even BT seems to be good. I can't wait to see some of the personalizations and performance settings to be introduced!

So far I have noticed the following:

NFC seems borked, it will not turn on. I've seen the comments about NFC and battery life, too.

There are a few duplicate sound entries in the notification settings of apps as well as some with different names that sound identical.

The theme setting for SMS doesn't work as well as only some of the AOSP keyboard themes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
One other item. The compass issue that was present in CM11 is here in 12, too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Train88:
I'm still on the 11-25 build, and stock messaging doesn't work, like others said, but using hangouts or Google messenger - everything is all good. I'm perfectly happy with this build, especially after porting my team member's theme to this rom[emoji106]

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rajones19:
LOL I was JUST about to quote your previous message and point out that the ubiquitous compass issue still persists. I am beginning to think the only way to get around that is M9 + Faux kernel. Having tasted Lollipop, it's really difficult to go all the way back to M9.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
My S4 refuses to work with LTE for some reason. This is not something new as for several months now on different ROMs I've only been getting 3G. Is there any fix that might allow me to get LTE? I am currently on Verizon's prepaid allset plan so I know it's supposed to work with LTE cause it did initially. Is there a number I need to dial to update my phones settings or something. Thanks.

I noticed that if I make any change to any of the stock APNs, it erases that APN entry, so I end up changing it back to default settings.

Edit 2:

Thru messing with APN and radioinfo settings, I have managed to get LTE on my phone, ran speedtest and got 36.39/10.32 speed but I am unable to make or receive calls. When I dial out, the dialer app FCs and when I call my phone from my work phone, it goes to vm after several rings and my S4 never actually rings. Hmmmm. My quicksettings shows LTE signal but right underneath it says no service, which I assume is the voice service, hence the no calls problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Which modem package are you using and did you flash one that also includes the nonhlos? You can run any modem you wish but the nonhlos should match the bootloader on your device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I dirty flashed 11/28 this morning and I noticed three things right away.

On initial boot I had SystemUI FC a couple times in a row. After the last FC my wallpaper changed to the default. I reset my wallpaper and had one more but it didn't change my wallpaper again when it quit. Not sure what the relationship is if any.

NFC in settings is now completely grayed out. Yesterday I could attempt to turn it on but it just tried to and stayed off.

I am having an issue with WiFi disconnecting. I can cycle WiFi to make it reconnect but it will disconnect again. I tried cycling airplane mode. When I turned it on mobile data and BT turned off but WiFi stayed on and reconnected. When I turned airplane mode back off everything came back on and connected. It seems fine for now.

Caught a Logcat. Here's a link to it.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/xizhp8fvdgrvt9y/Log_2014-11-28_08-11-24.txt?dl=0

I'm gonna run this for a while and see how it behaves. If it doesn't I have a backup of 11/27 to go to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
MK2 i believe. Do i need retail modem +non-hlos or developer edition + non-hlos??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ribenabob:
mmm black out is all i am missing with this rom. care to share?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Your original bootloader should have been MDK. That was the only VZW GS4 bootloader that could be exploited. I would guess you need the MDK+nonhlos first then flash any modem you prefer. As far as modems go it's what works best for you, just make sure to flash the modem only. I have had the best results with the NG6 modem.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vanberge:
I dirty flashed 11/28 and have had some System UI FCs as well like Fern says.

Once on bootup but then it's done it a couple other times as well.

No Audio from First Boot

DSP Manager keeps force quitting and there's no sound in any form after my Clean Install. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. This rom looks great otherwise.

If I need to do anything else (logs, try something, submit a bug report somewhere) please let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Sure did. Wiped both cache and davlik cache before flashing. One other thing I noticed. I have around 180 apps installed (system/user combined) but after wipe and flashing 11/28 it only optimized around 145 on first boot then another 6 on second boot. Usually it does this for every app on first boot.

I lose signal when flashing alucards kernel and I was told to replace the telephony jar in framework but I can't seem to get it to work. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Has the kernel been updated to work with this ROM? It should just be a matter of flashing the kernel, overwriting the existing telephony.jar, and rebooting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Yeah it runs just fine. I just can't get signal to work. I replace telephony and reboot with proper permissions to no avail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Something either in the ROM or kernel changed. It now breaks data. Didn't in the first couple builds
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dacre:
Yeah, same here. Main thing holding me back is the awesome customization of the alucard kernel. It seems like there's probably a fairly simple fix, but I haven't run across it. I tried replacing various .jars, but no avail. I don't get data or any cell connection at all with alucard + CM12. There must be something specific to jfltevzw that is missing from this new version of the alucard kernel because I have seen reports that the Sprint S4 + CM12 works just fine with alucard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
Welp, my no LTE situation appears to have been caused by me myself and I. LOL. Apparently, according to the internet, dialing *228 on a 4G device is not a very smart idea. It jacks up the SIM card. I will be stopping by the local VZ store sometime today or maybe Monday to get my SIM card replaced. Doh! Thanks everyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
Try this:

Open Tapatalk app & click menu button. Is the text white on white?

Open lastpass app. Is your login screen black on black?

Either this is a bug or I have dorked those apps. I have trying flushing the cache and reinstalling, but nothing helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Lol, yeah I've been there. Your sim will probably reset itself after a reboot eventually. Took a few days for me. But new sim def fixes it. Problem is dialing *228 programs your phone to be a 3g phone.
