I too have gotten the notification a couple times. So far I just cleared the notification. Not sure what the security update would mess with/mess up. I don't want to lose my twrp recovery at ALL COST
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phantom1999:
Supersu says it needs the binary updated. How do I do that on shostock 8.1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
In the past for me the super user app would prompt me that and give me the option to update it right there just by opening the app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chaplain:
Ditto.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chaplain:
HELP - stuck on splash screen

OK - help. I wiped & flashed 8.1 again today. All was fine, until I applied John McW's NG2 theme (which I have used for a long time), w/XML tweaks. I am now stuck on the Shostock splash screen. I have pulled the battery and tried to boot into recovery, but am not able to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
Safe strap or old Bootloader. Obviously getting into recovery is essential here. What does it do when you hold the buttons down for recovery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chaplain:
I get the Galaxy S4 splash, with the little blue text at the top left, like it's about to boot into recovery, then a blank screen. I have held the buttons for, like, a minute, but then released them & when I do, it boots into the GS4 splash, then the KitKat animation, then the Shostock splash screen and hangs there. I have Odin & the original software on my laptop, UCUAMDL - one of the original bootloaders from when the phone was first released. I know I can Odin back to stock & try to reroot (if I can remember how), but would like to avoid that. Like, really like to avoid that. Thanks in advance for any help.

Re-reading your post: I do not use safestrap, since I have the original bootloader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dmb219:
I had to try getting to recovery with the buttons since I don't do it very often. I powered down, then held volume up and power until the blue recovery booting showed, then released the power button but held the volume up button. I can never remember the sequence, use trial & error. :p Hope that helps, good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chaplain:
Ok, I'll play with it. I am assuming that, once I get into recovery, a non-wipe reflash of the rom will eliminate any problem caused by installing the theme?

Just did a full wipe this a.m., and had everything set back up except the John Blue theme, and that tanked me. I did the reflash today because I was getting RR's. Would settle for a good old RR right now . . .

EDIT: Done! Was able to enter recovery & dirty flash rom, which restored everything. If/when I reflash the theme, I will not install the XML tweaks. I think that was the problem. Will check w/John McW on that. Thanks for your help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dmb219:
It's worth a try. If you can get to recovery you can do whatever it takes to fix the problem, starting with the least aggressive. Odin is a pain but it cleans things up, I do it when things get more wonky than they should.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SyberB:
Im wondering if I can flash this modem to this rom freely or at all? I am currently running MDL on v7 of this rom. Thanks.

Made 4 U by Me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] RockRatt:
Yes you can flash the newest ShoStock-i to your phone then flash any of the modems in my modem thread to your phone. If you flash the ROM only it will not update your modem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SyberB:
Ty for the quick reply. I just wanted to make sure. I jave a fully unlocked bootloader and dont want to screw that up. SafeStrap is great and all....but id rather not bother with it.

Made 4 U by Me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] RockRatt:
I am with you on that, I still have the MDB Bootloader loki'd with TWRP, so I never wanted to mess that up either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] niksha:
Hi all. Installed this rom and it is great thus far. However i noticed that when the rom was installed it also unrooted the phone .is that normal ? suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
No it doesn't unroot your phone, are you positive it isn't rooted? Does the super user app that comes with the ROM not function or show support?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] niksha:
I pressed super user app and it says "there is no su binary installed and super su cannot install it.this is a problem"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
That is strange, you might try to uninstall SU then reinstall from playstore. Are you on a locked boot loader and using safe strap or a Loki boot loader? If you just need to root again, you could just use towel root. It's a one click app to root
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] niksha:
Yes it seems as if i am on a locked bootloader and i am using safestrap.Tried towelroot and it says my phone is not supported.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
Well, that's odd shouldn't be true because I rooted my gf's s4 with it unless your bl version isn't supported. But, when you got the safe strap, did it come with a superuser and selinux changer in a package?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] niksha:
yes it came automatically with the superuser .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
What did you use to root? Have you tried using it again?

Anyone have a copy of 6.2 and 7.0 that they could link me to?

I almost linked you to his streamingfreebies.com site, but I just looked and he only has the latest versions posted. If no one else posts a link tonight, when I get to work in the morning, I'll see if I still have every version still saved on my hard drive.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Any luck? I went thru my server and I didn't keep those versions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dmb219:
I have 7.0 but not 6.2. I'm uploading it to Drive, will post a link when it's done. I don't think Sho will mind.

I'm on I337UCUFNC1

Kernel 3.4.0-1125940

Tue Mar 25 2014

Just making sure I'm all systems go to flash this rom straight up. i.e., I don't have to upgrade one thing or another first.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
I believe you're fine, just make sure you've got the modules you need and all that. I'm not real savvy on SS but I know it does run

---------- Post added at 08:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 PM ----------

Actually it says it has nc1 modules in it so just get the SS version

Further confirmation came from a few sources online saying that Samsung's German support was sending S4s that came in for issues back with 5.0.1 installed. So, oh boy! (^.^)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] burgertime78:
Just flashed this rom over a fresh odin, NB1 rooted stock rom. Wifi is currently not working. I did install the ANT update but the phone acts as if it has no wifi hardware. When I pull down the bar at the top and tap wifi, nothing happens.

What did I miss?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
NB1 modules I think
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ends:
Why can I not get a god lock. Nothing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
Your question makes no sense
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ends:
I'm sorry. Stupid auto correct. I'm not done setting the phone up. I meant gps lock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
Lol it's okay, after I thought about it I assumed that's what you had meant. Honestly I don't know, would assume maybe the flash just didn't go perfectly or something, it works for others are you using SS? Did you flash the correct modules if so? If not may try another clean flash or clean download then flash. Verify md5 etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ends:
Yeah, I've went through the obvious steps. I've actually tried different roms. If it helps my background is I updated from 4.3 not long ago. I was force to update official firmware first. I'm on nb1 now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
It should be simple, flash rom, flash NB1 modules etc. I don't have SS so I'm not the best for info on it. Maybe some other SS users here can chime in, maybe it would help to be on the nc1 base to match the rom and modules before flashing. I don't know beyond that

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Just wanted to say thanks and goodbye to [MENTION=1670609]shoman94[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2471504]jeboo[/MENTION]. Been with you guys since GB on the s2 and your work has always been professional and just plain amazing.

With the s6, IMHO, being a step backwards. I'm moving on to the N4, tmob to get around the boot loader mess, and hope to see you guys again on some other device.

Stay frosty my friends.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
Thanks for all your support! It was always great seeing you around and helping out in the thread!

My question is how is the s6 backwards compared to the note 4?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
Not sure tbh... I'm so busy with life that I don't have spare time to do this anymore. I'm still using the s4 for a work phone as I removed the cameras.

Btw I thank you for the support you and many others have given us over the years!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ZephCr:
No removable battery & no internal sd storage to name a few issues many including myself have. Also the note 4's camera is better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I thought the cameras were the same on both.... Interesting.... I haven't read much.... I don't see the other 2 a real issue especially if you have at least 64gb....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ZephCr:
I got a 128g sd to store all of my music & you know the battery's gonna go at some point. I like having spares for just in case, like a zombie apocalypse or somethin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
I really need a swappable battery since I use my phone for work, 300-500 emails alone via activsync and I'm always on the move and typically don't have the ability to charge. The no SD card is a bummer since usually SD cards are cheaper but not a huge issue.

BUT that's the beauty of our os, we have choices and more choices. "Together, not the same". :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
[MENTION=1670609]shoman94[/MENTION] As stated above by c0ld and rock, we all really do appreciate the great work, I alone have been with you and jeboo for at least 4 years now. If you do stick with developing roms, would you mind letting us know in here what device you grab next? I know you're running the opo, but if you get something else I'd probably base my next phone decision to follow you guys. Although, with at&t locking bootloaders down it will become much harder to follow. Thanks for everything no matter where the train let's off
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
Awesome to read this! Thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
I would also like to say thanks for the great Roms

I don't what phone I'll end up with, I'm think about the S6 active, same specs but a little extra, I don't know. Thank to everybody else who has contributed to a great SHOstock experience. I to have been with SHOstock since gingerbread on the s2 and its always the best, I may try other but I always come back. Love you man.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chaplain:
Bye

[MENTION=1955417]Shoman[/MENTION] - Well, I guess I will add to the eulogy in progress here. I, too, have been with your roms for at least a couple of years now, & I have recommended your roms to many others during that time. I have come to depend on your work for a stable, functional phone. I really hate to see you move on, but I understand. I have learned that you can correct any pesky derps fairly well by just wiping and reflashing the rom every 4 months or so. Don't really want an S6. I am happy with what I have & what I am running.

Peace & low fat gravy to you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phantom1999:
Hey after u install this can u delete the show man zip from the phone cause it takes up about 4 or 5 gigs of space on my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
I'm not aware of any showman zip, but if you mean the SHOstock Rom then yes, you technically could delete the zip after flashing however, if you ever want to clean flash you'll have to download it again. But the Rom zip is only roughly 1.28 gigs, not sure where you're getting 4-5

Does anyone know how to add additional apps to the multi window app? There's only a handful of apps in it which is great but there's 1 app I need.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
It requires a mod to add some apps to the multi window, but if you open the window, click the button at the bottom, hit edit, and it'll give you a list in the main screen of compatible apps that you can add
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ms.journie:
Thank you.

What is a mod? Is that modified? The handful of apps are not the ones I need. The only one I really need in it is the calculator.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
Some roms have a modified multi window app that allow anything. You may be able to use an xposed module though. I'll take a look for you

Superuser

Hi,

I loved your SHOstock 3. 1 ROM so I decided to try your SHOstock-i v8.1 FULL for SafeStrap with NC1 modules ROM.

SHOstock-i v8.1 FULL for SafeStrap with NC1 modules is also a good ROM.

I have one problem, Superuser.

I flashed Superuser 2.46 with ROM (SHOstock-i v8.1 FULL for SafeStrap with NC1 modules).

Any Ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
The ROM is already rooted... You should not have had to flash anything.

To get it back I think you should just have to grab the supersu zip from the forums and flash it in recovery. I personally have zero experience with safestrap as well. I figured others would have responded. Sorry for the delay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Homeboy76:
The reason I flashed Superuser is the notes:

I tried your suggestion it didn't work.

The problem is my Safestrap 3.72 is not working correctly.

Thanks for responding :)!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] VICIOUSVIC1:
Any word on Shostock 5.0 international and Att version has already dropped
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Jeboo and showman have move onto different devices. Chances are KK is the last version we will see from them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
So sad... For those of us who are still here, where are we going next? What phone? To root or not to root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
N4 for me. So amazing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
I've about decided to go with the note also but, do we get the 6 month old note 4 or wait 6 months and get the 5? I was waiting for the s6 but......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ZephCr:
Same boat ⛵ here ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
N4 is worth it. 1.4 gig Roms flash in 30-50 seconds.

Of course that's assuming you get a tmob version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ms.journie:
So Glad someone asked this question! I'm still trying to figure out what phone to go to next. So many options.

I see a few people are heading towards the Note4. Are you guys rooting your Note4?

Anyone else upgrading their phones? To what?

Rooting?

:):D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
Well the note 4 on at&t is not rooted, correct me if I'm wrong, but the T-Mobile note 4 is rooted. I'm not sure of all the differences between the 2, I've seen several peeps say that the tmo version is better though. I do like the looks of the new Sony xperia z4 seems to have some stuff the s6 forgot about but it may not be all its cracked up to be and may not even come to US or get a carrier. The gsmarena review show the note 4 camera being better than s6 for the most part. Who knows?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Choices choices. N4 and S4 have the exact same camera so that's odd.

My wife has an att n4 and the only thing I notice is that I usually hold a bar higher on signal. Besides that they are the same... give the exception tomob is the only us carrier that's hasn't pushed L for the n4.

---------- Post added at 07:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:01 AM ----------

Hoestly if anyone gets an n4, you're better off buying an off contract tmobile n4 and use it on att. No locked bootloader and it works with all att bands.

Of course that's assuming you want to root and load custom roms. If not, get att's version and stay stock forever.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ms.journie:
That's interesting! I was wondering why people where saying t mobile!

Thanks for the info!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Droidmissionary:
I'm waiting to see lg's offering in a week or so, then i will possibly be going to HTC. I like the hardware of the new Samsungs, but take away my sd card, att takes away my unlocked bootloader, i will lower my flag and find a new ship to sail. I love Android for my freedom of kernels, roms, and customization. I will not use Safe Strap, might as well jailbreak an iPhone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
Wow! All truth. The s6 really hurt my feelings. I can't remember the last time I pulled my battery, "but take away my SD card". Crazy! It would take forever and be a total pain to move all my pics, music and stuff from my SD card over to the s6. It would be like starting life over again. I'm with you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I got use to it with my oneplus... But I definitely could not go with less than 64gb. I stream all my music but if I didn't... If need 128gb for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] steve9271:
Between the locked bootloader and no SD card and removable battery there is no reason to get the S6. Might as well get an iphone UGH!!!!!!

I have used my friends OnePlus, but, after using the SGS4 for so long, I found the OnePlus touch screen very strange to work

Does anyone have suggestions for Kernal and Roms?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I know there were some reported issues with the touch screen but both my Oneplus phones did not experience that. I also look forward to the OnePlus 2 but they better not use the SD810 chip.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 1:06am:
Well, if anybody is still here or cares, I've decided to wait for the note 5. It pains me that SHOstock hasn't been updated in almost a year but life goes on. I'm thinking about trying one of these lollipop roms on the S4 in the mean time. I need kid mode to come with me, is it possible to backup kids mode with titanium and reinstall it on another touchwiz rom? Any ideas or anybody wants to talk about the weather, I'm still here. Thanks everybody.
