I think it's probably just a TiBu problem because Helium works fine for me as well as downloading the same apps from the Playstore.

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 AM ----------

Another option that might work but haven't tried it yet would be to create a flashable zip of all your apps with TiBu. I'm going to try it once it finishes creating one for me.

I'm confused by this. I was meaning if your baseband version under settings --> about phone --> Baseband version #############MJ7, MK2, ME7, MDK, MI1, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spike96:
Yea, I'm having some trouble with titanium. The apps that are restored from titanium just force close. But when I restore the apps without data, the apps seem to work fine. When I restore the app data separately, it also seems to work. I think restoring apps + data is the only option that causes some trouble.

It's a problem with SELinux. The problem is huge in the Note3 forums. Supposedly TB was fixed, but it's not working for me. I found THIS THREAD:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2463116

It includes the restorecon zip file further down the thread. Doing this DID work for me. I want to write up a script to run, because I do a lot of restores. HD11 didn't have the restorecon file, so I had to use root explorer, copy it to system/bin and set the permissions, After that, the command worked like a charm, wish I'd seen it before wiping and trying over......

Hey Hash, im uploading the MK2 factory image (I already posted the no-wipe Odin tar.md5) the factory image contains a PIT file, persdata, and sbl1 that aren't present in the no-wipe. I havent looked at how your new hijack works but wanted to make sure the factory image wouldnt effect the installation of Safestrap. Is there anything I should know?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NighthawkXL:
Very nice Surge, just saw your post about the Odin files... not if we could get a hold of the AT&T MK2 variant or would those work...

It's nice to see the community becoming active again :)

Why does it say MK2 module coming soon but in the download section there's a mk2 module zip available to download that appears to be uploaded today?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] djmcho:
just confirming titanium backup does not restore apps correctly in slots. not at least for SS 3.7, MJ7, and RLS11. I tried app only, app & data and data only restores and nothing works. When you clear the cache and data the app still does not load at all. I get an FC after about 10 seconds of black screen on any app so I feel like this maybe a missing symlink or permissions issue.

EDIT - It's only when using a SLOT, titanium does restore to the stock. Did not test if it will restore to stock if you over write the stock with RLS11... maybe today if I live dangerously since I am not a dual booter and don't need the loss of 4gig to nothing used.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Since ive already been asked, the reason the md5 is different between the MK2 module zip I posted in Q&A and Hash's MK2 module zip its because I changed the metadata to the quoted text below. Otherwise they're the same. But if you downloaded my zip then please use the official one Hash posted instead to avoid any confusion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
For me, all of my apps restored to the stock slot (Hyperdrive 11), but most of them force closed upon opening. Had to uninstall then reinstall to fix it. I "think" the problems are caused by backing up my apps on 4.2 stock then restoring on 4.3 Hyperdrive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] djmcho:
It's hard to say... jumping from 4.2 to 4.3 .... jumped to using SS 3.70 .... also using a slot, not the stock slot.. not sure. I do find that only a play store reinstallation works. Did you mean a reinstall X 2 from titianium?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
No. Sorry for the confusion. I meant uninstall then reinstall from the Play store. I did try a reinstall from TiBu, but had the same issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rick299:
I can't change the default size for the system but can change the data size. Is this normal in ss

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Same here. Everything force close on me if I restore from tibu on stock side.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oldwolf613:
Kchitown, can you just go into download mode & fire up Odin & flash MJ7 if you are on an earlier version, & in that way upgrade? Does Saferoot work for MJ7.

R know it sounds very noob, I've got experience modding on the Moto side, but just got into Sammy since Black Friday sales… I'm guessing not, but it is free to ask… & there seem to be oice people here :)

I cant seem to get the phone to find the external sd card. Wen I plug up to the computer it sees the files, when i look through es file manager they are there but in 3.70 it shows nothing? ant ideas
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oldwolf613:
klabit, I'm an old hand w/TiBu, maybe I can help.

Did you go into Preferences & search ALL of the device (meaning ext sd card too) for backups?

I'm on HyperDrive 10.2 & successfully used TiBu to restore my apps fm my Razr Maxx that I retired on Black Friday.

Just make sure you don't try to restore too many files / ap's at once.

Also, since I have system files & apps fm other platforms, whenever I go ineo the option to restore in batch mode I've trained my finger to go 1st for 'unselect all' & then choose 10 or 15 apps. Sometimes it is worth it to restore apps 1st & then data.

If you try all at once TiBu will choke on it.

you may need to do something w/TiBu Profiles…

hpoe this helps, oldwolf
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Thanks for the input and I do not mean any offense but I have been using TiBu for quite some time also.

For me, if it wants to throw a fit and give trouble doing a simple task like restoring apps and data, then I feel it was time for a fresh start anyways. :good:

Not the first time I have started fresh and certainly won't be the last.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
its an issue hashcode is aware of when you are in safestrap recovery and has to do with file format of the ext-sd card. What that means you need to put files on your memory card for install thru safestrap 3.70 until this fixed or reformat the ext-sd card to a compatible format. I'm waiting on the fix
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] atown706:
So can I install SS 3.70 and install hyperdrive and flash the MK2 modules or is it still buggy?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ricovox:
No wifi on MK2 with HD11 in slot

I'm also running MK2 with HD11 installed in a slot, and I too have no wifi. It just does not turn on. Is there a workaround for this, or is MK2 still in 'alpha' stage?

EDIT:

I was having this problem because I used the MK2 Module I found in the same download folder as the Safestrap APK. Apparently that module isn't appropriate. However as pointed out by klabit87 (a few posts below), there IS a known good MK2 module. Once I flashed that module in safestrap, my wifi started working. So in summary, make sure you download the correct mk2 module from here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2461892&d=1387386185

Thank you. It says MK2 coming soon. A lot of people are having the wifi issue on mk2. I would just wait for the module and than flash it and it should fix your wifi problems.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
since safestrap came out a couple months ago, I have kept stock rom intact and created 2 other rom slots so I could always try 2 different roms compatible with safestrap. I have all my data directed to my ext-sd card so splitting my available memory in half for each rom slot wasn't a problem.

some people load the custom rom to the stock slot, I never felt comfortable with doing that as I could always go back to stock in minutes if issues arose in custom ROMs
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] phobia09:
Didn't check this out but we need to be careful. Verizon's latest build number also ends in mk2. I don't believe Hash has uploaded official at&t modules for mk2. If he has, the file name is most likely jflteattmk2modules.zip or something along those lines.

EDIT: This post was in error. The mk2 modules are most likely for the vzw version so you guys should be good. Obviously if you do find AT&T mk2 modules you wouldn't want to flash those. Sorry if this threw anyone off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjoostema:
Good call, I didn't even think about them both having the same build number

He must not have them yet because they are not anywhere in his jflteatt or his jflteatt-active folders.

[MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION]

After a series of testing as well as reading many other's posts, there is a 'Network Mode' or some sort of mobile network issue caused by installation and use of safestrap.

What happens is after any reboot to stock ROM, the device has difficulty locking in any CDMA network. So after a few minutes it automatically switches to global mode. It has to manually be changed back to CDMA/lte every single boot.

This only occurs after safestrap install. To be sure, I wiped everything and reinstalled stock ME7 with PC Odin. Everything is great. Then install safe strap and just create a ROM image and once the ROM image is created the problem occurs. A ROM need not actually be flashed.

As far as I can tell, only stock ROM is affected but not secondary boot ROMs.

I know you don't have a sim card, so I am happy to help troubleshoot this in any way necessary.

This is not just isolated to my device. Similar things are happening to many others.

Why have you not claimed this yet - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43468099? Looks to me like you've met the requirements for a nearly $4K bounty. Has everyone forgot about the bounty? Or did it expire or something?

Even being loki'd it's nice to run 2 roms simultaneously. I've been asking for dual boot on Samsung devices since the S3. I just hope something will be in the works for the N3 as I'll most likely get one in a few months. Thanks for your work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spc_hicks09:
He hasn't claimed it because I believe a bootloader unlock is tied into it.

The other one requires root AND recovery. Hash didn't gain root, it was a group effort of other people. However, IMO he should be entitled to at least half for coming up with a recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshw0000:
There was actually 2 bounties. One for an unlock and one for a custom recovery. Unless I'm misinterpreting the guidelines, this would qualify. If my Moto memories serve me right, SS didn't allow kernel or radio flashing, not sure if this version is any different. That's the only thing I can see potentially disqualifying this exploit. My name is on that list. I just want him to get his dues if he qualifies for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dcacklam:
There's no bootloader unlock with this, so no kernel or ramdisk flashing can be done, and the full features of ROMs based on a newer version of Linux (like CM10.2) won't be there, even if they are made to work... This is why some ROMs require the installation of a linux-kernel-modules patch (doing this lets them work with the stock TW kernel even if the original ROM wasn't shipped with that kernel)...

It *barely* misses the requirement, if you read strictly....

Root (someone else did)

Custom Recovery (this)

Bootloader Unlock (not done yet)

That said, the Google Edition rom worked flawlessly once I put the modules in the right place... If not for the safestrap boot screen, you wouldn't know it's not flashed 'normally'....

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

Multiple gigs (the 'ROM Slot' is a set of filesystem image-files that are 'mounted' and become your new data/system/etc - Skimping on rom-slot size reduces the space available to your ROM for apps, unless you use (gag) apps2sd), and it's on your internal storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spc_hicks09:
I edited my post but you replied before that I think.

The bounties are all tied together. One is for "root + recovery" which he only achieved 1, not both.

The other is for "full unlock + root + recovery," which he again only achieved one. Regardless I feel that he deserves SOME of it because of the fact that without Safestrap, nobody would be flashing anything at all right now. My hats off to Hashcode for getting his beloved recovery to work with our locked down phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] killajoe:
[MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] once or if you make a paid playstore version of this safestrap can make an option for advanced users to create there own preferred/custom rom slot size? The partitions that are created now are almost a gig to a gig and a half two big for all the roms ive tried. Thanks in advance. Oh and congrats on winning that dev edition moto x!

You've used SS with the MDK bootloader?

I want to dual boot AOSP and TW. Is this possible with SS? The only thing that I would need to do would be switch the kernel when switching between ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Addiso:
If I'm thinking correctly since ss basically is virtual and you are on mdk, then basically you're stock rom is the custom rom you are on and since you can boot up into original twrp and safestrap you can create a rom slot but it still has to have an me7 stock kernel but the "stock" rom is a loki customized rom? [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] any info you may have on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jova33:
Also, how would SS play with TWRP? If I rebooted to recovery, would it boot into TWRP or SS? Or TWRP and then SS? If that were the case, I could reboot into TWRP, flash a kernel compatible with whichever ROM, boot into SS, and pick which ROM I wanted to boot.

Does that sound like something that would be possible? Maybe I'll mess with it this weekend. What's the worst that could happen?

Edit: and if it were possible, wouldn't it be awesome to have SS on devices with unlocked bootloaders? Imagine a Nexus 5 multi booting AOSP, CM, AOKP, PA, and Ubuntu. Backing up nandroids, flashing a ROM, and then having to restore a nandroid because you didn't like it is such a PIA. Man, that would've been BA on my GNex. I was flashing every nightly that came out and soft bricking every other week.

*Sigh* in my morning confusion I must've posted this thinking I was in the AT&T safestrap thread rather than this one, I've subbed to both threads.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ickray:
Quick question. Say something went wrong installing hd11 and you want to delete the rom files off of your phone and start over. Would I delete the rom slot? Or is that just deleting the slot, not the actual rom files? Anyone know the proper way to do this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Deleting the slot does delete the rom files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Can u also delete from sd card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Yes, if you are wanting to erase a rom slot in order to start over.

When you are deleting the rom slot in safestrap recovery it deletes the files found in the /safestrap folder

If you booted into stock slot and looked in the folder it would be empty until you create a new slot.

How do u delete a Rom slot when u reboot to recovery, I didn't see a option

If your having problems restoring your apps on Hyperdrive with Titanium Backup, download this app from the PlayStore. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viper.tbrestorefixerfree just make sure that you run it after you finish restoring your apps.

Well if you're on mj7 you can only flash TW roms via Safestrap.

No AOSP like CM yet.. If at all.

So I guess try and get it into download mode and flash the factory mj7 K image.

Then use saferoot, then install SS 3.7 and you're good.

That is if you can get it into download mode.
