You can try this one - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2769799 claims to work with all aosp, stock, and cm roms. Make sure to read the warnings and caveats for it descriptions to get what you need. I haven't tried it as I haven't noticed any major volume issues
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. You may have misunderstood my question. I was wanting to know what the developer did to create the ROM. Specifically I was interested in those things that provided compatibility with the M919 as opposed to those things that added features such as rooting.

The only reason I want to keep versions the same is that I support my wife's phone and it's easier if we're running the same version.

random reboots

hey guys,

in the last build before 2015/10/21 there was a extra kernel file for people with GT-9505 Intl. like me. after flashing this kernel, the reboots disappeared (:

but since i flashed the new build (2015/10/21) the random reboots came back...

any ideas?

edit: i updated the modem and wiped the whole storage ;)

I just discovered that MMS is not working while WiFi is enabled. My carrier is Cricket, an AT&T MVNO. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I did a clean install of JFLTE-GPE-20151021.zip from OH3 stock ROM. Voice, SMS, and LTE data all work fine. Any ideas or suggestions?

Update: as noted below, when I disable WiFi I am able to send and receive MMS without issues. This suggests my APN settings are correct.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Probably misconfigured APN. Double check settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. I've double and triple checked APN settings:

https://www.cricketwireless.com/sup...ice-byod/customer/bring-your-own-android.html

Also, when I disable WiFi I can send and receive MMS. When I re-enable it, I can no longer send nor receive MMS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HampTheToker:
The folder from my Dropbox has the proper files for the S4. I forget the original Dev, but his thread is still floating around here somewhere. If I could remember, I'd give him the credit he deserves.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
I restored stock OH3 ROM and now I can send and receive MMS with WiFi enabled. Has anyone else experienced this issue with this Lollipop 5.1 ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WangChung81:
So I finally flash to the 10/21 update, and now I'm getting a system update message for Google's November system updates :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Anyone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] EternalSoil:
I use gosms and it has an option that disables WiFi when sending and receiving MMS. Before I always had issues with MMS on WiFi no mater what version of Android. I'm on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] digband:
This rom has been really good - thanks to dev for the hard work. Flashed 1021 ROM today and when I hold down power button, I only get one option "power off" - did the reboot options get removed? Anyone know how I can get them back? Also, seems like some of the extra options/tweaks in the settings menu are gone now... were these removed purposely? Last thing is that goog's Messenger app suddenly stopped working... when I choose send button nothing happens, the msg disappears like it's being sent but never logs to convo and doesn't get sent - other SMS apps do work... anyone else experience this? Thanks for your help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Codeseven:
Do I have to install Gapps or something? There's a lot of missing features that I would think are necessary to this version of GPE. Before I could have sworn there was Stweaks and/or OTA updates that came with GPE which supplemented stuff like messenger, calendar, etc. But that was back with the original lollipop GPE releases. Can anyone chime in, please?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] digband:
Yeah, I also noticed OTA updates stopped working and no more Stweaks... plus like I said no more restart options in my power-button menu...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
You need to d/l any apps. This comes super minimal. OTA should not happen since it is ported.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. That's interesting about GoSMS. I did decide to return both of our M919's to stock ROM since it supports MMS with WiFi enabled. The 'OK Google' feature of Android 5.1 is nicer. Wonder if that can be added to 4.4.4 OH3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Ok Google is a good part of the Google Now launcher which I think is also available for download from the play store for 4.4.4.

For the record I had no mms problems on the 9/19 build (my m919 was running on ATT by the way). At home it was on Wi-Fi for data of course but I got mms and sms no problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. In hindsight, I should have tried other messaging apps such as GoSMS. I think my focus now will be trying to get the nice OK Google to work with stock.

Update: sure enough, I can install Google Now Launcher from the Play store and get the same OK Google on every home screen. Interesting. Looks like a win-win :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] digband:
Hi - does anybody else have options other than "Power Off" when long holding the power button? I'm just trying to see if my install went wrong or if it's supposed to be like this. Thanks for confirming.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
That's what I have just power off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Yes, I too just have just power off. I use the QuickBoot app which gives me power off, reboot, recovery, and bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks again. I decided to restore Lollipop 5.1 on one of my M919's and test out SMS apps. Here are my results:

a. NG: Google Messenger

b. OK: Go SMS Plus

c. OK: Textra

d. OK: Chomp (don't care for UI)​

Turns out the only one of those tested that didn't support MMS with WiFi enabled was Google Messenger. Now I'm back in the Lollipop mode. Can't decide between Go SMS and Textra. I did read that Textra is most popular on several websites. Now I'm thinking about changing Dialer. Don't care for the UI. Any suggestions. I really like the one that comes with 4.4.4 OH3, but it doesn't seem compatible.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jroq8400:
Try Google Hangouts and Hangouts dialer.

SGH-I337 I337UCUGOC4 SS3.75

Albe95.S6.Full.Port.4.6.G925FXXU2COH2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. I'll give them a try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks again. I got around to trying them. I really like the Google Hangouts messaging app. I've now switched to it from Textra. It's got a simple and clean UI. I don't understand the dialer. It looks to be for Google Voice only. Since I have unlimited voice with Cricket I don't understand the need? Am I missing something? I do use Whatsapp for making international calls while on WiFi. Maybe it's a similar product.

Also, I'm getting used to the built-in Phone dialer app and it doesn't seem so bad anymore :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
I've continued comparing Textra with Hangouts messaging apps. It's not an easy choice. I like the Hangouts UI and features better, but Textra seems to consistently send MMS messages faster and has numerous settings to deal with SMS/MMS issues that might arise. There's one Textra feature that drives me nuts. When swiping up within a conversation the keyboard pops up and covers posts. I guess I'll stick with Textra nevertheless. Anyone have comments on these or other messaging apps?

On another subject is there any way to have the security pattern appear when pushing power button when screen turned off? I have to swipe up to display the pattern.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
I just re-installed gpe 5.1 on my 2nd M919 and now it experiences the problem of screen turning off whenever making a call. Rebooting the phone gets screen back. I see that this has happened in previous postings. I then re-installed stock ROM and it continues to happen although now there are two solutions:

1. tapping power button brings screen back

2. the dialer settings has option to not turn screen off when calling​

Neither of these options exist in gpe ROM. Has anyone found alternate solutions? The consensus seems to be that this is caused by a defective proximity sensor. We have tried compress air, but that hasn't helped. The fact that stock ROM has options to prevent screen turn-off suggests to me that maybe an alternate dialer will help. Has anyone tried that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Splifff:
hey, there's an option in settings where you can end a call using the power button. That's what I use, since there is dust inside my proximity sensor. I took it apart and cleaned it, which fixed the problem, but a few days later started again :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. My ROM is JFLTE-GPE-20151021.zip. I found that setting under Settings/Accessibility.

BTW, when responding to a menu during call, how do you enter numbers from the keypad? I would like the power button to return screen, not end the call?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Splifff:
My solution to that problem was to use a different phone...unfortunately.

Just got a Nexus 6p so i can kiss that nightmare of a phone goodbye forever.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
I found a partial solution to screen going blank during call and never returning without reboot. First I performed a proximity sensor calibration as described here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2569141​

Now when placing a call the screen stays on until the proximity sensor is triggered at which point the screen goes blank. Pressing the power button twice returns the screen. The proximity sensor feature is supposed to be reversible so that when it is triggered, screen goes blank, but when cleared the screen returns automatically. This is how my other M919 behaves. At least now, it half works and I have a way to get screen back.

Update: The 'Proximity Fix' app completely solved the problem. Now proximity sensor is reversible meaning that screen goes blank and returns when proximity sensor triggered and cleared:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vrognaas.proximityfix​

This makes me wonder what the problem was in the first place. It seems to me that it must have been some software glitch and nothing to do with the proximity sensor hardware. A clean ROM installed failed to fix. Obviously the app didn't remove dirt from the proximity sensor. It's a real mystery to me. I've written an email to the author of 'Proximity Fix' asking what the app does. I'm curious :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadykhoff:
Just got a Nexus 6P, so I guess this is farewell! I'll be continuing to run this ROM on my S4 that I am using as a MP3 player in my car, but probably back on the KitKat version (mildly better battery life). Just wanted to chime in here and say thanks to everyone for all the help over the last year or two and an especially huge thanks to Dan and everyone else who contributed to development of this ROM! Cheers! :victory:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Just replaced my burned out S4 (m919) with another. I did a Nandroid restore and now gpe 5.1 is running fine except I can't figure out how to change the phone's name as seen at PC via USB connection. Currently it shows "SGH-M919". I need to change it to "Galaxy S4-K". Thanks for any help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
I've pretty much convinced myself that this can be done in stock but not gpe

Is there a way to eliminate the annoying 'System Update Downloaded' notifications?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
I'm running the September 19th version, and on that one, when the notification shows up, there are a couple buttons on the notification line you can tap to bring up options. One brings up the ability to turn off the notification service for the updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. I don't see the buttons, but if I long press on the Notification line, Google Play Services comes up and I can disable notifications there. I wonder if this was appropriate?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Right. That's it. That's how it's done. Sorry for my lack of clarity.

TouchWiz Camera

Hi everyone, noone has a mirror for the TouchWiz Camera?

Otherwise, there is a free equivalent software?

I was interested on the slow motion functionality...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bogdatov:
I have strange issue with stock camera. Sometimes it works fine, but more often now not, when I start camera app it just sits there displaying "camera" icon. I have to kill it 2-3 times and then it works again. Any ideas? I installed this ROM as clean install
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AaronCompNetSys:
Can anyone tell me if this ROM supports the flip cover wake feature? I think you can test it with a magnet somehow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Has anyone experienced the problem with Google Now (OK Google) that it correctly responds to 'Make a call xxx', but not 'Call xxx'. In the former case it makes the call automatically by opening the dialer and placing the call. In the latter case it opens a list with choices. The first choice is 'make a call' and you must touch the word 'Call' to proceed further.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] I7210I:
i have a problem with these rom,i'm putting ringtones at the ringtons folder and when i'm choosing them it's not work,i'm getting calls and it's not calling at all,just vibrate..what to do to fix these?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] emtchief22:
Does anyone having problem with youtube being green (you only can hear a sound but screen is green) I tried different browsers and all the same. And there is an update notification that is been bugging me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AaronCompNetSys:
It does, and very well. Can't say enough about this ROM already. A modern Nexus with extended battery, sdcard and vast accessory support.

This bug is killing me... VLC chokes on a blue ray h.264 with "hardware acceleration error" after a couple seconds and is fine in software, so the solution is to just disable video hardware acceleration. But how? This ROM has to work flawlessly in youtube and Facebook for mom to be happy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] duckredbeard:
I installed this ROM on my GS4 before I turned it over to my wife. Clean install. Even wiped the internal. She has gotten an update notification, saying that there is a newer build, 2Nov. Haven't seen any update posted here. Is it an OEM update being pushed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zowpow:
Does this support Android Pay?

EDIT: Android Pay works! 5 ghz wifi didn't work until I installed GPE kernel. Works as in Android pay doesn't detect that it's a custom ROM, haven't had a chance to actually use it yet.

Edit 2: Looks like 5 ghz wifi is just solved by a restart, no new kernel needed.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] byron1985:
You have to redownload it from somewhere else if you have the old version of this ROM you can use a root browser and grab apk from that or there are a few places to redownload it. If you uninstall nova you wouldn't have a launcher.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
I think if you check the one in gravity box it overrides the power menu in the Rom. Seems different if you turn on advanced in gravity.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tenxo:
Tried that; it does change like the fonts to the ones in gravity, but does not do the no power menu if security screen/lock screen is enabled thing, that was implemented in the latest gravity box.

First of all thank you for the Rom.. It was my first flashed Rom for my S4 and in loving every minute of it.

Secondly, can I flash KT Kernal on a dirty Rom? Or does it have to be clean install?

Flash the international GE kt kernel by following this method

reboot to recovery

flash kernel

wipe cache/dalvik

fix permissions

reboot

If you experience ANY issues, full wipe but if you are running smoothly right now you should be fine

Thanks,

Also I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I found that if I try charging my phone while it's turned off, it will turn itself on. This is with the Samsung wall/usb charger...

Also found out that the 600 current I'm pulling from the charger is not enough to charge and play lol even when it's set on powersave

Galaxy S4 KitKat
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
This is indeed a bug that we discovered on the first day 4.4 dropped but it is not something that can be fixed, This is the direct result of us not having an official 4.4 GPE bootloader, nothing we can do and it will affect all 4.4 GPE ROM's at this time.

hope this helps

Guess that's what I get for not reading up on 4.4 more lol, doesn't worry me much. Thanks again.

Same here. Using TWRP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bogdatov:
RESOLVED. No matter what camera app I was using it works fine 1st time and after that - no preview. Have to clean data and restart.

Resolved that by completely completely unrooting and returning to stock [M919UVUFOK3] TW 4.4.4 from here using ODIN.

Then I started stock firmware and started camera, on 1st start it downloaded some camera firmware and installed it. Then I rooted/TWRP my phone again and installed jflte-gpe 10/21/2015 version from here. Now camera works fine.

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

Getting constant notification about OTA update to lmy47o.s008.151101.

Is there a way to flash it with this ROM or at least turn off ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bogdatov:
No one has issues with OTA update to lmy47o.s008.151101 constantly showing up ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Moonfire.PDX:
The update is incompatible with this ROM, so there's no point in trying to install it. There are previous posts in this thread regarding these notifications, and I think someone might have posted a workaround to make them go away.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shale107:
The good news is no Bluetooth crashes like so many 5.1.1 ROMs.

Problem though...Paired with my Toyota, the phone won't wake up when I try to dial via BT. I have to click the power button to wake the phone up first. Then I can dial from the car.

Could this be a power-saving option or something? Wondering if there is a way to fix this either with a setting, or from an ADB shell? Thx.

Greatest smooth and stable rom I've ever used on an s4. There's just one small issue with video on Facebook and YouTube, it stutters and lags and I gotta keep stopping and playing to fix it but then turns up again in a little while. Is there a fix to this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] LeCheeseFrog:
You can use the Recently app by ChainFire from the PlayStore.

Or if you've installed xposed, the GravityBox module does the same. I prefer Recently because it allows for control over how many apps are shown.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
I just have one question, because I already flashed this ROM, and I love it so far.

Does the GPS work just the same as stock? Please tell me it does.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
Yep, I can confirm it does work perfectly fine, and possibly better. Using it now. And yeah I know, I'm an idiot for texting and driving.

Flashed this ROM a day ago. This morning it downloaded an update, I forgot to take a screenshot of it, but said S4 GPE November 2015 security update (about 22mb). Curious I opted to install.

The updates will download, but they can't install.

The update package is not compatible with the modified OS.
