I worked on a customers phone today s-off and unlocked bootloader on a HTC one m8, I wasnt to impressed. the screen is what we look at all the time and once you go amoled you can't go to lcd. so s5 is a better choice also the camera is better.

the metal is nice but dam that phone is tall.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tenxo:
I'm not really, was just saying, wish he would. This Rom rocked my s4 his talent is needed for the s5 [emoji16].

Yup, just saying KNOX is what it is. He KNOXed his s4 and still support us with roms, I followed his suit after on my s4, and that's why I didn't care about KNOX on my s5.

Ya got the s5 on launch and its a beast in all aspects to s4. Rooted with cf-auto root, tripped KNOX all's well. HAHA. Just need the great devs as Dan to really unleash its potential!

Any way to get the latest Watchon app in a flashable zip? I have the app, but it will not work on this ROM but either reg install or making it a system app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
It should work...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lochman79:
It doesn't. At least not for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] braschlosan:
Just updated to the 4-8-2014 version with the 4-7-2014 kernel from a clean wipe. I cannot turn wifi on. Is there something I need to flash to get wifi working?

Edit: I also cannot access my SD card.

Edit2: Flashed back to stock and wifi/storage is working properly. Maybe something messed up during the flash. Ill try again.

Edit3: I downloaded the file again and did a binary comparison, and checked the md5 against what is listed and they all matched. I then wiped the phone again then installed the ROM and it seems to be working. Ill make a full backup before trying to install the newer kernel version in case that was the cause.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
Try to full wipe then reflash. Login and then install the watch on apk.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lochman79:
The Watchon app from the home page works. It's the Watchon app that I extracted from the Sammy S5 deluxe ROM that will not work. It installs OK, but keeps FC'ing. And it actually installs as a separate app from the one I already have installed. It does not update the app installed from this home page. I don't see how starting over from a fresh ROM install would change anything? I actually just freshly installed this ROM on Saturday.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoboBrazil:
Nexus is gonna get 4.4.3 today, so Google Edition S4 should get it in a couple of weeks:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
It would clear up residual data and cache from the previous app and random bits of data that slow down your phone. Clean is always the fastest and it helps clear out errors IMO.

EDIT: the watchon app from the s5 prob won't work for you BC of libs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lochman79:
I did remove the old Watchon app and that still did not work. I've tried it all, except fresh flash, which I still am not convinced that would fix this issue.

Agreed about the libs part, which is why I asked about a flashable zip. Thought that would solve that problem. Maybe it wouldn't...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] camry89:
Flashing this won't make any changes to my bootloader correct?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Not sure if I get what you mean but if you're asking if flashing this rom will affect your bootloader's status (as in pre KNOX, KNOX), the answer is no.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] camry89:
smell it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] camry89:
So is it at all possible to pull the camera out of this and use with CM11?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
Eh then only the app on the op will work then until someone ports s5 apps. Hope you get it working man.

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

It's practically the same camera but with Samsung libs you get better quality, which can't be ported.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
Try snap cam hdr
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
this ;)

it's even better then the stock camera, in fact the stock camera is this apps base and it is AWESOME

also you should try out gravity box + xposed for all your CM goodies that will work perfectly with this ROM on dalvik

me personally I just run the ROM stock with Power toggles, that is all I really need now that GPE has a reboot menu :)

I can't recieve any gps signal, any idea?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
If I try and wipe the phone via factory reset via the internal settings, will that work? Any downside?

I'd obviously rather do this via the recovery but ever since my company required pin lock if we have email the encryption had totally fhuging borked my phone. I have tried Philz and twrp and I cannot utilize either utility. Basically all I can do is reboot into recovery and look at it. Wipping cash and dakvik do nothing, I just get a failed error. I tried to do a full wipe/factory reset and it also failed. It won't do anything. I just want to get the rom back on here and use webmail on my phone. Nobody should have this much control over a phone they did not pay for. Sheeiit, I can't even make a backup.

Try taking the email off. Then unencrypted. Then wipe and do what you do. After that just readd email and let it take over your phone again lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
Lol. I already did get rid of it and I also unchecked the administrator box in security settings. Feels like Obama took over my phone.

Hmm dang...flash different recoveries? Odin stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Gravity box and Xposed module are your friends. I didn't like stock Android due to the missing features but Gravity Box has it all.

What modem are you on? The latest NB4 modem has problems with GPS, there's a fix for it though, just go to the general S4 section, look in the NB4 modem thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
I originally was using Philz, then I flashed TWRP via Odin.

If I do a factory reset inside the settings menu will it bring me back to the version of Dans ROM I am running or will it just make things worse?

I think it only works with the stock recovery. If not, it'll just wipe everything and keep the rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:

I have a solution to this camera problem Dan involving touchwiz camera.will post soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
FINALY WANTED TO SOLVE EVERYONES answer,why do I get more signal bars in touchwiz compared to Google play edition. As Dan mentioned before that Samsung puts more bars on signal to foul the cusumer. Here is the proof .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
That new Google camera tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Has anyone had their data freeze sometimes? Like it looks normal but nothing can load, and it returns to normal after about 10 minutes or reboot. This is on the NB4 modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Google camera just got update on Google play store. Nice update but still doesn't cure video issues in gpe.I'll show you soon how I got touch wiz camera .

Touchwiz? what's that?

never heard of it

shoot me a PM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
OMG... It did nothing. All it did was tell me everything was going to be erased, then it booted into twrp. Then I rebooted and nothing on the phone has changed. All my data is even still there. It's like I did nothing at all.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
what are you trying to do?

you sound like you need Dan support
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Could not port tw camera over so I figured out a way to dual boot this ROM and have touch wiz as a secondary , switching between both roms takes a mer 30 seconds . so whenever I want too take some nice pics and videos I just switch to touch wiz and use Samsung camera then when I'm done I switch back to gpe in 30 seconds. It's awesome. What's great is Nothing breaks at all and everthing you left off doing in rom stays the way you left off. still running ART.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darazor:
Just curious. What app were you using for this comparison?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Network signal info pro
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nivekx9:
Ahh I thought you ported. I would've been so excited.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Tried porting Samsung camera for three days but could only get auto mode working not video on gpe 4.4.2.

This is a video of my setup from Dan's Google play edition as daily driver and Touchwiz as secondary for Samsung camera when needed.

[PATCHER][APP] Dual boot any ROM on all Galaxy S4 variants!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MoodSwinger:
[MENTION=5460717]JORDVN[/MENTION] : It looked from the vid like it was an app called "Dual Boot Switcher", but I don't know anything about it. you might still need to use something like SafeStrap to load them in separate slots, then that just automates the reboot & switch process. ^^^What he [MENTION=3626794]HeavyA[/MENTION] said.^^^

[MENTION=4750904]roblxskye[/MENTION] : Do you really notice that much diff in quality to go thru all that? I know it's not much to do once it's done, but I only noticed a slight difference really going from TW 4.4.2, to this rom camera, then I did end up going with Snap Cam mainly for it's stability shot. I do use my device Cam as my primary "point & shoot" mostly for kids pics and stuff like that so a lot of outside and spur of the moment pics so switching would be a PIA, but I'd do it if it was worthwhile, but have you tried Snap Cam, because I actually think it gives the best quality I've been able to get.

as far as signal questions...I gotta say [MENTION=4750904]roblxskye[/MENTION], [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] , and others are correct. A couple years ago I went from a Sam Captivate Glide to a Moto Bionic (GSM Modded) and between the 2 I lost what looked to be about 1 1/2 bars of signal. Then I used the same app and I was getting exact same signal on both devices. While I was disappointed with Moto "showing" less, I came to appreciate the more real approach. it more closely reflected the Net Sig Pro app, and I still never dropped any calls, but when I did have a poor signal it didn't look like it "should" be better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MoodSwinger:
Can / could this ROM be used on an S5 as is?

IF NOT what would be needed? T-Mobile S5 version or GPE S5 version?

If someone got an T-Mobile or GPE S5 could it be done without too much trouble, by providing a system dump or like a nandroid backup? (ie: updating system files or the like, etc..) or is it much more involved than that?

Not trying to simplify, just wondering, if it could be done without [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] having to physically have a new device. or could he just change some of the system / lib files and it would work.

Just curious.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] LoopDoGG79:
Just like this ROM is based off the GE S4, we will need the GE S5 to come out first before it can be ported to the Tmobile S5

Each device is different, so no one knows for sure until a rom is pulled from it. Now if someone works at Samsung and has all the access to drivers, libs, etc. that would be a whole different story lol

Yep thats what finally got me to put the knox bootloader in. So I could quit running hybrid because it was flaky for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
How did you do that? Did you have to go through the whole ordeal of unrooting, going back to stock MDL, OTA update, then root and install the rom again?

I made full wipe, wipe cache and wipe dalvik and installed your release 3 times .. And installed my stuff again .. Same problem .. All the problems I had no previous release .. I have no ideas to fix my problems :(

I have also tried with network booster programs from google play, no success :-/

There may be fine signal but as soon as I turn on WiFi or mobile data, so goes the network in zero .. So can not both talk phone and have WiFi or mobile data on ..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rahlquist:
I had zero issue installing this rom. Yes, I now have Knox but my warranty was gone anyway so I figured why not. The only trouble I had at all was I installed the latest TWRP not the recommended older one. That caused me some issues but once I got the right one on, no problems at all. Installed this on the 9th. I cant think of a single problem I have had.

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

I know I tried quite a few things. Since there are people who have data issues with the hybrid, and also those who have BT issues with the hybrid its not unreasonable to assume that there is something just not quite right with it for some. I dont know what the issue is but for me I could be standing in a great LTE area and open Chrome and have to fight through the connection errors up to 10 times before it connected.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] androidtoy09:
Anyone having data drop? I get it almost daily. Sometimes 2-3 times a day. Mind you, I flashed the rom clean…twice. And I also have the latest modem (NB4)

Which one are you running? I don't remember the version on mine before I unrooted so I'm trying to figure out which one works best.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
I couldn't stand the weird data drops so I bit the bullet and got the official firmware installed (with KNOX and everything). Data works without any problem now. The only time I had stable signal like this was when I was on 4.2.2 with MDL Booloader and baseband.

The TWRP I wound up on is 2.5.0.2. I am running the 4-8 version of this rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jonhy25:
Some strange issues

Im coming from an official Touchwiz 4.4.2 Samsung Firmware, a Canadian version (SGH-M919V) of T-Mobile (SGH-M919) and I'm expecting some issues after installing this ROM :

- No Lte data : I can only get H+/3G when I was able to get LTE/4G on Touchwiz, why?

- No Ktweaker app is installed : my kernel version is 3.4.0-g22842f5 which isn't supposed to be 3.4.86 ? I think im still on a stock kernel even after installing the Rom which include the custom kernel.

- Model number changed : On stock I was on SGH-M919V but now I'm on GT-I9505G, is that normal?

- Modem version does fit the one from ROM : In settings, my modem version is M919VVLUFNB5 but isn't supposed to be ...NB4? Do I need to flash a new modem?

- How can i know if my bootloader is unlocked? If its locked maybe this could be the reason of some of these problems.

My Recovery is TWRP 2.5.0.2 and I used CF-Auto-Root (jfltetmo) to root my phone if this can help.

Thanks for answers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PiggySmalls:
1) Check APNs

2) The ROM comes with [MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION]'s modified stock kernel, download and flash one from his thread for KTweaker, and the ability to tweak

3) Yes

4) This ROM didn't change anything having to do with the modem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
Thanks for maintaining support in my thread mate

To answer your question from the PM. I will not be updating my device anytime soon, I plan on sticking with the S4 for a good while, I'm extremely happy with the way my phone runs with this ROM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
That's exactly how I feel Dan your work has me very happy with my gs4 ,no reason to update my phone.

Just want to ask how can or can you please share were I can get dual boot im currently on kitkat tw rom and I love the way you have your setup thanks for your video its awesome . Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Model number doesn't really matter, this rom comes from the GE S4 and Dan didn't change it.

You will know if your bootloader is locked. Att people have to do all sorts of weird things to flash roms, and their S4s have locked bootloader.

Each model number has a different baseband name, I'm assuming NB5 is the 4.4 baseband for the M919V. Don't try to flash NB4.

After seeing how much everyone has been glowing about this rom, i've decided to try it out. Been on stock touchwiz and i'm just kinda bored with it. Extremely disappointed in TW kit kat.

After installing the only thing... ONLY THING that i've noticed is that when clicking the android version a bunch of times, it comes up to a transparent screen. if i hold the middle of the screen the usual kit kat logo shows up but there's no indication of anything. tl:dr it's nothing at all. :p

Will report back if anything is amiss, but so far so good! Interested in trying out ART.

UPDATE:

Well everything was going fine up until i actually tried to call someone. As soon as i dial a number and enter a call, the phone becomes completely unresponsive. The call is still going, i can hear it ringing, but i can't end the call, the screen doesn't come back. i have to restart my phone to end the call. Pretty disappointing. Tried wiping and reinstalling, same result.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
hmmm sounds like proximity sensor

you are not the only one my friend, clean it by dusting your ear piece and calibrate if need be, search the thread for more info

it's not the ROM's fault, Vanilla android is tuned for a non dirty proximity sensor, Touchwiz calebrates a certain way to cover up their hardware failure by allowing the proximity sensors to get dirty and not properly sealing them in the hardware

the problem is with your device, clean that sensor and all is well, vacuum and compressed air should do the trick, be generous with it too :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nooblit:
wow i've never heard about this until now. i really hope that's the only issue and i hope i can fix it. when i was on touchwiz i had this problem too but i could toggle the screen on and off. if i can fix it this should be my rom for sure. let's find out.

UPDATE:

HAHAHA i can not believe that worked. I went downstairs and turned my vacuum on, put the hose up the the earpiece feeling like a dummy. placed a call, screen went off when i put my hand near it, screen came back on. whaaaaaaaaaaat? that is the stupidest thing ever. So glad it worked though.

UPDATE UPDATE: i just made another startling discovery. As it was working downstairs next to my vacuum, i found that upon entering my room, the sensor broke again. the sensor actually gets interference from my lamps light. once i turn the light off it works fine, and once i leave the room it works fine. light on, and i can barely get it working. What kind of crap is that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JORDVN:
Lol dude that's strange :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrgonzodad:
Do you have a cfl bulb in the lamp? Some cfl's (especially older ones) put out weird magnetic fields. If it's a normal bulb and you're not too attached to the lamp, I would throw it away. If it's causing radio interference it's possibly a serious fire hazard.
