Thanks, again!

Right now my S4 is running good, with just a few bugs.

I have been reading the fixes for issues with the 18 and 18.1. I don't even know what those folks are doing to complete the repairs.

This is why I was asking if there is a step-by-step procedure available.

I am quite aprehensive to take on this task.

I have rooted a phone with an unlocked bootloader, but this seems like a whole different game.

18.1 and gear 2 neo problem

I just picked up a gear 2 neo. When I try to connect with gear manager it throws an error. Is there a walk around or fix for this? I have been searching for a while and can't find anything that works.

Steps to update to Hyperdrive 18.1

Hi all,

I am currently running Hyperdrive 10.2 on my Verizon SCH-I545 with build ME7. What are the steps I need to take to upgrade to 18.1? Do I need to do each update seperatly until I make my way up to 18.1 or can I just use safestrap to update 18.1? Any help would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
You need to update your base firmware to nc5. you can use surge's method or go back to stock and take the incremental otas (I'd personally do surge's method) I think it's in the general section
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ryanw5489:
Ok I haven't been on here in a while because I have the new nc5 I wish I could get this rom again always loved this rom but I really don't want to get into safest rap right now. I am rooted with the towel root methods but I was wondering if someone could help me find the medium colum hack to increase the volume. Also one question would this increase the volume for a Bluetooth speaker
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2589408 You have to use this guide for the volume hack if you don't want to use Safestrap. Although I'd argue installing Safestrap and flashing a zip is less involved then this process.

It only increases the physical volume of the S4's rear speaker. For bluetooth volume, you can use ViperAudio, just google

com.android.systemui has stopped

Hi Everyone,

I recently installed RLS 18.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (Verizon). I wiped the phone and cleared the cache 4 times before flashing this ROM with TWRP. Everything is working really well except when I attempt to make a phone call. This is exactly what is happening:

1. I open the Samsung phone app

2. I press the green phone button next to the name of who I would like to call

3. The call screen pops up as well as a message saying: "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped."

4. The system ui restarts itself and the call continues to ring.

This also happens when I receive calls.

My build:

- Samsung Galaxy S4 (Verizon)

- Android Ver. 4.4.2

- Baseband: MDK

- Kernel: 3.4.0 Talexop

If anyone has any advice on this issue I would be very grateful to hear about it.

Thanks,

Max Weisen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
If your baseband is MDK then obviously your bootloader is as well.

Have you tried upgrading your modem?

I have the same phone running NC2 modem (baseband) and I have no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Maxweisen:
I have not tried upgrading my modem. Should I just find a NC2 file and flash it with Odin?

(I'm not too savy with the baseband stuff)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
That's what I would do. I'll get you some more info and post back, there are a lot of moderns out there and you don't want to flash the wrong one.

Here is a link to the modem tread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=46550751

Use the retail modems only, I Use tried them all and foot me the NC2 seems to work best.

Not saying this will fix your problem but it can't hurt to try.

Besides, you can always go back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Maxweisen:
So I flashed NC2 as well as a few other modems and the phone app itself stopped working whereas before I could complete a call but the system ui would reset. I flshed back to MDK and the phone app is still completely unresponsive even after a clean install of RLS 18.1.

Any other ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
I don't have any solid answers but if it were me I would back up everything first.

Then I would flash a 4.4 modem and do a clean install of 18.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Maxweisen:
Ok. How do I determine whether a modem is 4.4 or not?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
NC2 and NC5 are both 4.4

Dropdown Date Missing

I had this fixed on HD 17 but now it's a problem again on 18. There's a time, but no date for the drop down menu. I played around with the color menu in HD tweaks but no luck.

I cleared data for the Touchwiz but it didn't fix it.

Any suggestions?

Posted this on the regular forum - thought the comments would help over here as well:

Well, I finally got this bad boy loaded. It was a struggle, but I'm there. As always - GREAT work guys! I'll do my best to donate after a few days of "settling in".

Few things:

1. Got around the TiBU restore hangup by going to preferences, app processing mode and change to Interactive. Tried indirect, but that didn't work either. Took a little time, but got them all back. First time it's ever happened - hope it's the last. Hate to have to ditch TiBU for AppMonster!

2. Had an issue with my Google account that wouldn't allow updates or installs. Deleted the account, re-established it, and everything worked fine.

3. Don't attempt to change the CPU settings of the Ktoonz kernel through Hyperdrive Tweaks, and ESPECIALLY don't set them to start on boot! Got stuck at the Samsung unlock screen with a flashing blue light. Luckily, a battery pull fixed that. Haven't seen anything that scary since my last PC motherboard death (stupid beeping POS)!

Will let you know if anything else crops up. BTW, my vote for next big feature would be for a way to save all my tweak changes from flash to the next. That would be REALLY handy! Oh, and NLPUnbounce is f'n awesome - thanks BillBauman for that heads-up!

Unable to make out-bound calls or send SMS

This was the first time that I have installed this ROM, I did a full wipe before installing.

Once the ROM was loaded up, I set up my google account, and then I seen that I had 2 text messages, I read them and tried to reply, but every time I try to send a reply, it says that the message was not able to send. But I can still receive text messages. I then tried to make a phone call, and no luck. My data works just fine, but outbound calls and text do not work.

I did not change any settings, it is still a fresh install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ClockerXP:
LOVING THIS ROM.

One issue I have found... when I go into battery options and change the setting to show the battery percentage in the upper right corner instead of just the battery icon it will work initially. Then it stops working and I have just the plain old battery icon. Did a wipe before installing with Safestrap. Any ideas?

Lost many settings, Android Device ID changed.

I've been using Hyperdrive 15 without any drama for 6 months. Today the phone went haywire. Any ideas about what's going on? I could flash a new ROM and move on, but I worry there's malware or something else bad (e.g., a Verizon update) at work, so I'm looking to understand.

These things have changed:

Phone would not ring on incoming calls. After reboot it rings with a different ring tone. But many other things changed after reboot:

Lock screen photo is back to default. But lock code is unchanged.

System sounds back to default "drip" sound for each touch.

Bluetooth is turned off. Had been always on. Pairing was not automatic.

Blocking mode is off whereas it used to always be on.

Extended power menu options all gone. Just volume settings now.

Status bar has changed. The options available on the pull-down notification bar have changed.

My apps and app data are still present and seem to work normally, as do Google and Exchange accounts.

I was able to reboot recovery and wipe cache and Dalvik with no change.

I ran Titanium backup to verify if root works. It does. But Titanium warns me that my Android Device ID has been changed. I last ran TiBu about 3 weeks ago. I have not updated HyperDrive. Did Verizon somehow send me an OTA ROM update?

I mainly use phone, Google Voice, web, and navigation. Nothing weird. All apps are from the Google Play store.

I'd appreciate any thoughts about what's going on. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SyncingFeeling:
More info on previous post: Today I rebooted the phone and a warning came up something about the danger of flashing an unauthorized ROM. Press volume up to flash, volume down to reboot. Or something like that. Next reboot it didn't happen. This phone is possessed...

Not sure what is going on, but after installation of the ROM was complete, the phone rebooted. I saw the samsung logo and then the safetrap recovery.

Go to the 1st post on this thread, all of your answers are there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
6 or 7 years of Android and I don't think I've ever had that happen to me lol. Kind of sounds like the phone booted in Safe Mode, but you would've noticed the "Safe Mode" text-overlay in the bottom right corner of the screen. Really can't tell you how that happened without a logcat. Verizon couldn't have sent an OTA. The FWupgrade.apk and SDM.apk used for OTA's aren't in Hyperdrive.

That's just download mode, which is what your phone needs to be in when you use Odin. Android phones have three different modes they can boot to from power off; system, recovery, and download.

Not on Safestrap, so not sure if these instructions are exact, but do a battery pull then hold down home+vol up buttons and reboot the phone. This will put it into recovery, then when you reflash the rom make sure you uncheck "reboot system now" at the end of the aroma installer, so you can install the rest of the zips before you boot.

MMS errors

After updated to 18.1, I've noticed that with TextSecure it is now receiving all my MMS messages even though I don't have it set to. I'm also getting an "error connecting to mms provider".

Options in Tweaks not there.

I installed the ROM on an AT&T Galaxy S4. I did a full wipe back to stock. When I go into tweaks, there is no option for the clock color or the option to edit the multi window apps. These are just two that I noticed. Everything else works except pie controls. Is this because I put the ROM on a Galaxy S4? Is it AT&T specific? I had to install the KToonsez kernel to get wifi and data working. I saw a review on youtube where these options are available. I believe he was using a Verizon Note 3. There are also two tabs that say left blank intentionally. One after General and one after Status Bar. Will buying one of the Pro Keys make these options available? Thank you for your time and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Install Issues: 15->18.1 VZW S4

This morning I made the jump from 15. I followed the instructions on how to "Upgrade to 4.4.2 VRUFNC5 and keep root (for NC2 and MK2 devices) ". That worked fine. So up to this point, I have the KK 4.4.2 stock root ROM with SS3.72. I then proceeded to update to the 18.1 ROM. I flash the 18.1 zip onto my stock slot in SS, as per the instructions on the main development forum page. I do not flash the modules.zip, nor any other wifi fixes as "not needed on rls18". Wait ten minutes, then reboot.

So, the phone boots up and I have no wifi. I go to the SS app to reboot into recovery and it is not there, so I install it. SS app informs that there is no root. So I open SuperSU, no binary installed. I attempt to reflash the supersu zip, but I cannot boot to SS (it's gone!). I then use the normal recovery and try to flash the supersu zip, as well as some of the wifi fixes. No luck, they all provide failure to verify and signature failures.

The phone no longer has SS, root, nor wifi. How can I proceed to fix 18.1?

Thanks

I'll be getting a new S4. I want to install 18.1 but I don't want to be rooted (some work apps won't allow installation on a rooted phone) . Is that possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
I think you are SOL on that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Well you can root to install safestrap and then install HD. If you don't flash SuperSU with the rom then you'll probably lose root on boot. Mind you, you can't use the Tweaks app without root either, so actually being on a custom rom without root is very limiting, mine as well stay on stock really.

You can also try RootCloak (google it) and see if that gets those apps to work.

Couple of questions...

Had a quick question about something I cannot find that's annoying me. Can you change the color of the notification text? The titles are fine (white), but the rest of the text is gray and really hard to see unless you have a dark notification panel backround (not a custom pulldown.png).

Also, is there any harm in running wanam xposed with this ROM?

Thoughts? All appreciated mucho.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ProfEngr:
Think I found an issue with the ROM & Twitter. Every time I do a search and tap a result, the qwerty keyboard gets stuck on screen. The only way I can get it to go away is to lock the phone, wait a short bit, then unlock it. The unlock process takes several seconds after the Home button is pressed before the screen turns on. So far Twitter is the only app causing it to hang.

I've tried clearing twitter data. Uninstalling it. Nothing has worked. I updated the AOSP keyboard to 4.4.2 by f-droid, but I think I'm using samsung. Not sure how to tell.

Figured out the kids mode.. went and downloaded the small package from gs5.wonderhowto.com/how-to/enable-kids-mode-your-galaxy-s5-0154991/

Sent me to update to a large 60 mb file from sam. So it's good now but I just don't know if it worked regardless of the rom or only because the rom had a "kids mode installer" ticked in the aroma.

---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 PM ----------

Well I think the s5 launcher is the one from e team and that was the culprit. I had it on note 2 and rotation didn't work there either. So I dirty flashed hyper and ticked note 3 5x5 hoping the hypertweak would take effect on it. And I chose 5x5 because I like a 5 unit dock and heavy drawer. But installing over the s5 tw home caused the ui to crash upon reboot to no avail.

Clean flashed and it works now with note 3 tw. I never used magazine anyway.

Btw for i337m or jflte-can use tmobile. Which installs kt for tmo. But I exit aroma before first reboot. And use kt for s4 tmo just for good measure because I know that version works.

Have anything for my question?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrmojorisin424:
Yes indeed, for I forgot to flash SuperSU after updating to rls19, and lost root. I miss mdk... The phone does work, however, as someone else already mentioned, it's just a bloatware free custom rom, but that is still 100 times better than stock. Just as long as those work apps don't verify with KNOX...bc it won't be there.

I did have a little trouble getting google play store at first, but after installing some apps via web browser, then reboot, I was able to use play store. It did random reboot when I was updating some apps, but it updated them after I went back to play store. So as of now, calls work and data too (hotspot hack works too if you're still on unlimited, i am and i tested it) so other than no superuser or knox (if that matters) you're good to go

I just hope I don't have to full wipe to get back root and safestrap...but yes EVERYTHING (even internal 16gb storage) is backed up. Always flash safely! (And rtfm, unlike me when i forgot to add supersu)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheRealPorkchop:
Ok, here's my two cents (again)…

With RLS18, the option to install the Verizon Visual Voicemail was there in the install options, it's not in RLS19. I don't use the actual visual voicemail but I do like how it's a one-click option to voicemail and I have considered subscribing to the service for actual visual voicemail (I am on Verizon, obviously).

I haven't been on a phone call yet, so I don't know if it's been fixed in this release to switch between two calls. It wasn't in the previous release… could not find the "swap" button for nothing.

I went back to the RLS18 and went into the folders, hyperdrive/Other/VVM/app folder and tried using that to install VVM onto my phone. The VisualVoiceMail APK won't install, so I guess that's not a viable option or I'm just doing it wrong?

Otherwise, awesome job and awesome as usual. This is the absolute only ROM that I will run on my phone. It's the most simple to get on your phone, the easiest to use.

EDIT : I found this for the voicemail thing, probably a quicker fix than redoing the ROM : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2768874 I did it and it works.
