notification bar

I notice that the notification bar is black or transparent on the main screen, but the sub-screens ie: system settings, mms ... it is a shade of grey.

Any plans to make it Black or transparent like the main screen?

Edit:

NeverMind, it is transparent and a hidden wallpaper was showing through. My Bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Peaster111:
Interesting.. Mine is black on the sub screens. Then again it could be because I've already HoloWiz'd mine ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JohnMcW:
Thanks, turns out it is transparent and it was showing a different background.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ALLDAT:
thanks Jeboo. Question i dont know what the auto-loki is about but whats the reason why i would enable this?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jeboo:
If you want to try other kernels (i9505, etc) that aren't loki'd for the i337.

Thanks Jeboo i was just asking whatever ShoStock Rom runs is what I'll be using
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
OP Updated....

I hope you all enjoy this!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pinoymutt:
MAN! I must have been asleep at the wheel! I didn't realize there was another thread for the new SHO-i and kept watching the other thread to see if the intl base goodness would be released!

Time to fire up the TiBu and get ready for a wipe!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
LOL... well maybe I should post about it in the other thread...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fatbas202:
Is anyone else having issues with Live Wallpapers? When I go to select a LWP, the chooser app crashes. It's probably just me but I figured I'd ask around.

This ROM is running really well. Thanks again Sho and Jeboo!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I'm using a live wallpaper currently without issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Sengfeng:
Ditto... Phase-beaming happily right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I'm using Snow Fall live wallpaper... lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
I suspect you will be changing that LWP before long. ;)

No issues with LWP chooser here either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
No WAY! I'll be changing the settings to have Christmas lights and see Santa fly by. :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pinoymutt:
I'm having the same issue after just trying to install some snow listening to SHO :D.

What launcher are you running? I am using Nova as my default and when I try and add a Live wallpaper it crashes as well.

I did find a workaround -- if I switch back to TW Launcher temporarily, then apply a LWP and then switch back to Nova it works....

Wondering if it's a launcher issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
Obviously a launcher issue... lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fatbas202:
---------- Post added at 04:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

You guys are right. I'm running the latest beta of Nova. It's odd that I tried to set the LWP via GEL and it still crashed. Once I cleared Nova as the default and set the LWP via TouchWiz Launcher it worked.

After I set Nova back to the default, I could then change it via GEL. Must have been something goofy that Nova was doing.

Thanks for the suggestions!

EDIT: By the way, I'm checking out Chainfire's 500 Firepaper LWP app. It looks pretty neat.

Am I missing the option, or is there not an option to turn the camera shutter sound off in the camera settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mattgyver:
IIRC, there's never been an option. You manually have to go to /system/media/audio/ui and remove the camera sounds you want gone. My suggestion would be to give them a .backup extension at the end so you don't lose the files (e.g. - shutter.ogg.backup). Android won't see them as audio files. That's what I always do.

Sent from my TARDIS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gk527:
Thanks! That worked for single shots, but for some reason when using burst the sound is still there. I even renamed the shutter_multiple file, but it still has the shutter sound for burst. I've rebooted and went in and cleared data on the camera. Any ideas? :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pinoymutt:
Try a program called "Note 2 Hidden Settings" on the market. I believe this works for the SGS4 and you can reenable the "Add Shutter Sound Menu" option or even turn off the individual sounds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] VICIOUSVIC1:
Just flashed back from Stocked up glad to say problem with apps not installing is gone. Now my issue is Phone won't read or recognize SD card.. won't let me select the mount in storage can't find in my files even in download mode it appears empty with no data.. I just finish flashing V3 but until I figure out if SD died or find a fix won't be able to push to SD

Full wipes as well as system, and Factory rest coming from Stocked up stock kernel no issues with rom only Sd. Don't have extra SD to test device just hope it not fried
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jeboo:
Try rebooting into recovery and see if anything shows up..Otherwise your SD is defective or improperly formatted, or you have a phone h/w issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] markbc01:
Jeboo's advice probably will work.

But if not, I had a similar experience loosing the ability to see/read/recognize my SD card, quite a while ago (but on a different phone -the i777 S2) when switching between roms. Formatting the SD card was not enough, I also had to do the following to get my card to be seen:

-- clearing and re-formatting the system partition,

-- clearing and re-formatting the cache, then

-- clearing and re-formatting sdcard0/internal memory

After that I reinstalled a fresh copy of the rom and everything worked -the card was great again!

Our phones are quite advanced from the S2 days, and I am not sure if it will work for you, but if nothing else works this might be worth a try. It was odd that re-formatting of the internal partiitons seemed to be the key to my recovery

(this was from post 6679 in Shostock 3 thread)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] VICIOUSVIC1:
Tell me about it I upgraded from I777 as well thought myself to be pro on the S2 flashoholic. But it's Different with S4 I am still on original TWRP and only strayed away from Shostock once.. Well I will try your method after I check SD card on PC make sure it's not fried..

---------- Post added at 11:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 PM ----------

Tried rebooting and external SD is empty. Tried to access SD Via PC but PC won't detect.. Class 10 32G SD fried.. Had been Using it since i got my S4 formated on S4 as well. Only thing i can think of is an app i had been using Folder Mount. App mounts and unmount SD. Well until i can get another SD tomorrow i won't be able to tell if phone can still read SD.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
You would have to mount it in recovery or try to go to it like you were flashing a rom from the card. I'm not sure twrp is the best idea. I've read around that it has caused some general problems... Not sd card problems but generally...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tvu815:
Anyone else get the "Your internet connection is unstable" constantly popping up? This is the first ROM that I'm seeing this with. I get full signal on my wifi.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I've never seen that before.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
its a launcher issue. I had the same problem but if you switch to TW you can change the LWP and then switch your launcher back.

yes, i've seen that popup before but it doesnt happen often so I just ignore it since the internet still works fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] adoute:
I see it when connected to the wi-fi where I work, but not when connected to my home wi-fi.

My home wi-fi is 5Ghz, work is not. I can get more details about each, if it will help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ALLDAT:
I'm getting constantly "your connection was disconnect because it was slow" but just in wifi at multiple wifi connection not just at home
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pinoymutt:
I have seen it on the 4.3 ROM versions, but generally only in parts of my house where I know coverage is spotty on 5ghz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] RockRatt:
I have seen it at home as well across different 4.3 ROMs. It is something Samsung must have changed. They used to have a setting under WiFi to connect to even if signal was low, I do not remember what exactly the wording if it though. They seemed to have removed that option in 4.3. So at home when I am connected to my 2.4Ghz signal I will get it when I am in certain rooms with not so great of signal. I don't think it has anything to do with this ROM and is just something changed by Samsung or the Google base?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] VICIOUSVIC1:
I know TWRP is not my first choice but S4 is so different from I777 flash wise I don't know how or where to find other recovery I already tried to mount in Recovery with no luck even PC won't recognize SD. I be testing with new SD sometime after work to evaluate damage.. I don't blame Rom it is the best that I had to come back. I think it may have been folder mount app it had ability to mount and unmount SD..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
If you go to post #4, there you will find Jeboo's CWM Recovery... just flash that in your recovery and reboot...

Yea if your PC can't read the card when using a USB adapter of some sort then yea... that card is likely toast. I had one die for the first time... a Samsung SDCard. Sandisk only from now on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Sengfeng:
There were some threads when the S4 first came out that Sandisk 32 and 64gig cards were really goofy on S4's. Mine's only a 16, and no problems so far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
I was running a 32gb in my sgs2 for 18months then transferred it to my SGS4 since June. Now its in my wifes SGS4 since her 8gb Samsung died. I'm now using a 64gb Sandisk in mine.

I personally haven't seen any issues with the Sandisk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Sengfeng:
Might be only an issue for those on stock crapware-infested AT&T firmware ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] markbc01:
I agree with Sho that TWRP can be a bit fussy.

For me it was sometimes sticky to get into recovery (needed to reboot); and sometimes would not let me mount usb drive to side load or download from the computer. Anyway, I still like it since it was also my first recovery for my S4, and I like how it still has the "fix permissions" option that other recoveries seem to moving away from.

Two other recoveries for us (i337) are Philz and Jeboo's recoveries. I have tried both and they both work well (but I still have not gotten around to actually flashing Jeboo's latest!).

Here is a link that IB4 provided in one of his sites for all three recoveries (TWRP, PhilZ and (I think) Jeboo's). Also Jeboo's latest is here in the early posts!) http://dev.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=8420

Try one or both of these other recoveries --they are simple flash to install zips and they might help with your troubleshooting!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] VICIOUSVIC1:
I flash as specified and after boot into recovery it is still TWRP did I miss something... Did wipes flashed zip reboot into recovery..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] markbc01:
Wow! strange. Actually, I might have had something like that happen to me -flash and no effect. But not sure since it's been a while since I last left TWRP. As I recall, I simply flashed again and it worked.

So, I think there are no special step all are already loki'd so no extra step needed.

I would do this:

1. Go back into recovery.

2. Clear (only) cache & dalvik (even if cleared prior)

3. Flash one of the other two recoveries (just not TWRP :)

4. Reboot into recovery //edit: correcting a typo-error // since the change won't take effect/be visible until after a reboot. So best to only reboot into recovery -not a full reboot yet. (using TWRP "reboot recovery" option in the advanced menu).

5. upon reboot recovery, you should be in the new recovery.

6. make a nandroid using the new recovery (some of these recoveries can restore from a TWRP recovery -but just in case!)

6b. But If you still are in TWRP (yikes that would be amazing) then I would repeat the process but flash the other remaining recovery -maybe the download was not good. (you might be able to D/L on a computer and stay in TWRP, mount the usb and copy over the newly-downloaded recovery to flash again.

7. if the recovery changes successfully, and you also get a good nandroid, then reboot as normal (waiting for the cache/Dalvik to rebuild).

hope one of those work!

I've been trying to fix this issue and I'm totally lost here. :(

I sent a text message to both of my boys cell phone and to my email. They both can see who else I sent a message to and as well with my email.

Here are my steps and please tell me if I left something out.

BandBase Version is I337UCUAMDL

1. Rooted my phone with [ROOT[RECOVERY] Loki + TWRP + Motochopper CASUAL-R527b release:27May13

2. Flashed SHOstock-i v4.0

3. Rebooted everything seems to work great except that SMS/MMS issue.

If everything seems to look ok here is there a way I can reinstall the SMS/MMS? I prefer not to use any sms/mms apps. I like to stock version.

Another question- I dislike the google hangouts and uninstalled it and installed the old google talk app. My google talk app seems to struggle to sign in. It just keeps saying signing in. Is there a compatibility issue with with rom and G talk?

Thanks! For helping me too!!

What are your messaging settings?

Sent from my TARDIS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
This is not using the stock launcher correct? Have you installed a theme?

I tested using mms this time and it acts the same except if I look at the message details on the image it shows who I sent it to. I can see your point but I don't know why the message details show it. All touch wiz must be like this.

About talk. ... All I can say is try the latest talk before hangout was released. I didn't like it either at first but I got use to it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Nope. I'm currently using Holo Launcher HD; however, this is the first time that I've ever had this issue. Every other time it has worked perfectly. I'll try reinstall the app and see if the issue still persists.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shoman94:
The launchers use touch wiz for its colors. .. If Samsung changed something, that is out if my control. You would need to message the author of the app. He needs to update it to support the new releases.

Edit; I should say a lot of launchers not all use touch wiz for its colors.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Gotcha. Just thought I would ask since it worked in 3.0, but not 4.0.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ms.journie:
So with the MMS situation it sounds like I have to replace my stock launcher with a app? Like the Go SMS Pro by Go Dev Team?

I do have the latest talk and it doesn't work with Android Version 4.3

It works with Android Version 4.2.

I do not have my group messaging checked. If this is what you are asking. I don't like sending a mass MMS and exposing people's phone numbers. It seems though I might have have to install an app like "GO SMS PRO" and replace my stock launcher.

I would have searched the thread, but it appears that search is currently down. I've been on ShoStock 2.3 for a pretty long time.

The "i" series is 4.3 where the 2.x series is 4.2. You can determine if the upgrade from 4.2 to 4.3 is worth it to you or not, but it was for me. Getting ready to flash SHOStock version 4.0 now...

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

Exchange works, my apps work, no FCs, the ROM is snappy, and all of my Xposed Modules are running as expected. I've not done a full wipe since 2.0 since it's all 4.3 and it's unlikey that much changes between these bases.

I figured I'd dirty flash and if there were problems then I'd either full wipe and restore app data or flash back to the old version depending on how busy I was at the moment.
