I figured it out, it was the size of the rom I made, I would like to know the sizes to make for roms that I could use all 4 slots if wanted but as of right now I am currently testing still but thank you so much for the reply!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
It would be nice if you could post the optimal slot sizes you end up with. There isn't much information in any of the SafeStrap threads on any of the S4's that say what sizes people are using.

If you feel up to it, I think it would be nice to say for example:

ROM: [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2301724"]Hyperdrive[/URL]
System partition size: 2800 MB
Data partition size: 2500 MB
Cache partition size: 300 MB
Free space after booting slot: [B]XXXX[/B] MB

This way people would know how much space they have for apps, music, videos, etc. after they boot into their new slot.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] dealwitit187:
I completely understand right at the moment im in a rush to work but would like to test different sizes and inform people as well but I will say I tried every rom that is confirmed working besides Hyperdrive cause I had it working before but I will reply and update later tonight.. but I do believe this is what I was trying if its wrong I will correct it later as well but it was the lowest size you could do for system and data partition I will say..

*Safestrap*

system partition size - 1000

Data partition size - 1000

Cache partition size- 300

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] stevehkim:
This is awesome!!!! I thought my wifes att active was on deathrow. For the international roms like omega which kernel patch/module do you use? Im assuming mf3?

Brought to you by my Golden Eye powered ATT S4. Modified with Jkay mod, KT Kernel, and Xposed.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
It depends on what version your stock ROM is. If you go to about phone you can see what version of firmware you're on. You then flash the corresponding MOD file. Odds are if you accepted the latest AT&T update then you're on MF3.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] uvbeenzaned:
Just tried the new AOSP 4.3 S4 rom here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2348272 and it seems that the display doesn't show up on boot, all I can see is the notification light flashing different colors on boot and then a black screen and then reboot. So I never got into the OS itself. Still working on this to see if I can get it to work. I've flashed all of the patches required also. If it is ported for the S4 it should work with our patches right?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] mutatismutandis:
You're not going to be able to install that. It has a different kernel than the one we have on our phones. We can only install roms based off of TW or roms that use Samsungs stock kernels at the moment.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] uvbeenzaned:
OK wasn't sure what kernel it ran from.

Although that does help, I don't think that solved the issue, lol. However, after further research, only spoken sound clips were really having an issue. By switching to flat, everything is fine. Thanks

I see what you are talking about and the option mentioned is also in the stock app. I even tried using go sms pro because there are more options. However, I was never able to stop any app from copying me on any mms or group message. I was able to get rid of all the other issues you mentioned though.

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

If you click on the update in the notification bar, you will see there is an option to stop receiving notifications about updates. I unchecked it, rebooted and it appears to be gone.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] lances1027:
I switcged to the gravitron rom to check it out and it had a different sms installed. Might ask the Dev for the apk to install it. I had no issues with that version at all.

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 AM ----------

Or I wonder if I can snag the original off of the stock rom

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 AM ----------

Here is the thing. That is not really the case as far as flashing a Hyperdrive rom. But with CWM installed there is no reason to use safestrap. That is basically used for a locked phone that has no way of any other type of recovery. You need to find the version of the rom that is compatible with your device or flash a new kernel / modem to work. Make a backup first before you do anything!!!!!! Odin to the baseband you need flash and wipe and enjoy.

BACK IT UP BACK IT UP!!!

Best advice I can give you without doing it myself. Hope that makes sense and helps

I had this same issue and making the size bigger, solved my issue. Every time I set the size to 1G, the phone would shut down on reboot
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] lances1027:
Not sure if this is necessary so delete if you feel it isnt. Just thought I would make mention to anyone that wasnt aware but some of the ROMs listed have had additional versions added since the last update of this thread so be sure to check the compatibility of the version before you flash anything. Some have upgraded to 4.3xx which wont just flash and work out of the box like 4.2 stock base versions. Just a heads up. Carry on

stock camera on hyperdrive

I am running Hyperdrive 10.2 on I537 MF3

I flashed the rom first, then the AT&T compatibility, then the MF3 Masterpatch

There has already been some discussion on the stock camera not working. Has anyone found a solution?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] lances1027:
I tried on another MF3 rom and it soft bricked. Had to odin back again

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------

Not that I know of. It is the same thing on the Gravitron ROM as well. I like the 4.4 camera option on the Hyperdrive 10.2 though. Much more then Focal or 360

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 PM ----------

You know what though. The ROM i tried didnt have a kernel in the Rom at all I actually tried to flash A MF3 stock kernel on top of the rom flash. I am going to try it.WTF It cant hurt right
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] sailzyy:
the AOSP 4.4 camera? or....

LeJay is a name that is mentioned a lot, I read somewhere that his camera fix worked with the Google edition rom. I guess I should look into his work.

Just remembered that I had installed another camera app, I think it is the 4.4, and I agree it is a little nicer than Focal.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] captaincado:
If I remember right, in Hyperdrive, I think there were 3 camera options, you could install, in the aroma installation, 1 didn't work, kept force closing, don't remember which one tho. The Master Patch has Lejays camera fix in it, I believe.

SENT FROM MY ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] lances1027:
Yes sir Captian You are correct. The Lejay doesnt work on Hyperdrive or Gravitron but I do believe it worked with the GE. And no luck flashing the MF1 over the MF3. I hate that too cause I like the looks of the Venom that you are running now
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] sailzyy:
I was able to get the 4.4 camera to be set as a default in place of the stock camera. Something that was not an option with Focal. I'll count that as a slight victory. I'll add that doing this allowed for the 4.4 camera app to be launched from the lock screen when the AOSP lockscreen is enabled.

Who really needs aqua mode anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] xAjCx:
What would happen if I installed Hyperdrive RLS12 Safestrap version onto the locked 4.2.2? Just curious thought since i saw there there was a safestrap version of the 4.3 based ROM.

Also I've been on RLS10.2 and started having WiFi connectivity issues, anyone have problem? I've reinstalled on clean ROM slots twice now with same problem so I reverted to stock.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
You can't install Hyperdrive RLS12 unless you have upgraded your stock ROM and kernel to 4.3. SafeStrap works by using the stock kernel, so any ROM you flash must be the same version as your stock kernel.

If you really wanted to try Hyperdrive RLS12, you need to Odin the MI2 leaked firmware. This is a pre-release of 4.3 for our phone, but beware that you probably won't be able to take official OTA updates and there's no going back to 4.2.2.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] xAjCx:
Yeah I figured as much. I switched from ATT to Tmo so I don't think I can get any official OTAs and not really looking to go 4.3 cause of the talk about malware in the current 4.3 root methods.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] sailzyy:
I tried flashing RLS12 with safestrap. It wont boot past the safestrap screen.

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] sailzyy:
[MENTION=4575536]monkeyhouse[/MENTION] put it on google drive for me. I will pm you the link.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
As I mentioned before you need to be on Android 4.3 in order to use Hyperdrive RLS12. Additionally you will need to extract the modules from MI2 and flash them to your phone in order to get a 4.3 based ROM booting in SafeStrap.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Kaczman:
So would I be able to flash a 4.3 Tmobile rom (like Infamous V9) if I also flashed the 4.3 kernel that came with it?

Or would I need to odin the MI2 firmware, then flash the Tmobile 4.3 Rom ontop of it?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
You would need to Odin the MI2 firmware and then try to flash the TMo on top.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Kaczman:
Thanks. Any idea where to get the firmware and install instructions?

Everything seems to be working fine with S4 Google Edition ROM on Samsung AT&T I537

Used SafeStrap to flash the Google Edition ROM 4.2 listed with all other stuff as the steps from [MENTION=5381171]my-blue-snog-box[/MENTION] outlined (thanks, you're awesome). Everything seems to work great on my Samsung AT&T I537 Galaxy S4 Active. The camera, service, wi-fi, etc. all work great. No spontaneous reboots or anything. The only problem I'm seeing is that I can no longer have my Windows computer recognize the phone through a USB connection. I've tried for quite some time now to remedy the situation and have poured through numerous solutions but nothing has seemed to help. Any suggestions from you guys? I'm also curious if there is any update for the I537 to use 4.3? Has anyone tried it?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
This has been mentioned before several times, but for some reason there is no usb support with the GPE ROM. It's a bug that everybody is having and a solution is nowhere in sight. As for 4.3, it looks like AT&T is going to push the update soon since they recently leaked the update page and there are references to a 4.3 update on the phone's specification page. That said you can flash a pre-release 4.3 Odin image, but currently there aren't very many 4.3 ROMs to flash in SafeStrap, so you might want to hold off a bit.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] brewgrammer:
Very good to know, thanks! For all my searching I could never really get a definitive answer about the USB support. Oh well, there are other ways to get files to and from the computer and phone. At least it charges :)

Rather than jump in to a pre-release, I'll eagerly await a full and working 4.3 ROM.

Thanks again for the reply!

xda hello friends, I hope you can help me

I installed safestrap in I537, I enter recovery and all good create rom-slot etc etc, when I install any custom rom (with respective master patch), it appears to be going well, but when I reboot the system in the rom-slot 1 the following happens:

logo samsung galaxy s4 active with small blue letters on the top right that says reboot recovery appears

after that I select reboot in recovery mode the system

turns off and on and the same thing happens again

I followed the steps to the letter, flash rom, flash modules, flash master patch and still nothing

Are you rebooting between installing the Rom and installing the MasterPatch? You're not supposed to, but it sound like that is what's happening. Also make sure you're using SafeStrap 3.65 is you have 4.2.2 and SafeStrap 3.71 if you have 4.3.

I did have to go back and re-install the mf3 patch to fix the issues like several others ran into, but it runs excellent now. The only thing I notice is that the air view doesn't seem to wake the phone with a hover like the stock does. Is there a secret to getting this working?

What would happen if I install the GPE rom in the OP on the main partition?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] :
I wouldn't try it. You'll probably have a bad time. Safestrap uses the original partition to circumvent the boot process and redirect it to your non-bloated ROM. It was designed to work with the stock ROM and I doubt a clean ROM has enough similarities to the TouchWiz ROM for that to work.
