I Jumped from rooted stock MF9 to an NAE Modem, Philz Recovery, complete wipe like 3 times and then put Stockish v06 (Full version) and it was quite sluggish and the worst part was absolutely no audio was working. But that's my fault for taking a leap of updates. I basically went back to rooted odexed MK2 (which I had to flash TWRP in order to flash properly). Set it up real quick, then put Philz Recovery and reflashed Stockish v06 (Custom Install with Stock kernel) and it's running beautifully, I'm still on MK2 modem. Looks like stock and feels even smoother. So I hope this helps anyone else that has issues upgrading. Wiping fully isn't enough, it's very helpful to have MK2 before wiping and then upgrading to this. Thanks rawintellect.

I'd say for the work it cost you up front aroma worked out for your project in the back end keeping the hills without eyes

Edit: sorry for the horrible movie reference I've tipped a couple back. But yes I think aroma was worth your blood and sweat

Edit 2: would it be much if I could trouble you to test voice and data at the same time using your current work table build of nae with a nae modem using the Kt kernel. I would love to know if it's just the CM guys using their unified build or if we in tw will suffer the same loss of data and voice at the same time? I saw that being discussed in the kt thread. Specifically I dunno if it's the modem on it's own or the rom modem combo? Ty in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fgr:
I'm here !!! And yes, NAE has got me!!!

Gave you a thanks too. I appreciate your contributions.

I'll stop cluttering up your thread now.

Carry on...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] leaderbuilder:
Ya, NAE does have my tongue. Well a taste of it.

But your ROMs are my goto, never fail daily drivers sir. Rock solid and all working; fast too!

I use my phone for work communications all day, I can't have lockups or failures of the phone, contacts ets. I use GPS for finding newer clients (and tethering when clients site(s) are down for files and info). If these basics don't work I can't even entertain the idea of running a ROM.

Thanks rawintellect for your excellent work!

Where can I post my solution so people that have the same problem can read it. I know this isn't the right thread but I thought people would be a little more receptive to a post about solutions for bricking. I just want to help other people and not let my post get buried.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Make a thread in general.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kennyb123:
I know this may sound lame, but can anyone post a recent apk of the Sprint Zone app? I actually liked using it before flashing this Rom. The ones that I found by searching xda give me an error when I try to install. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Pull it from the stock mk2 in the op. Can't please everyone I guess.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kennyb123:
Please don't think I was complaining. I love your rom. I'll try to find it in the stock rom, thank you. EDIT: Easy to find in stock rom - it's called Zone.apk. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sharkytm:
I very rarely post, but this ROM is exactly what it promises. Stock, Rooted, De-Odexed.

However, I had no audio with the NAE modem. MK2 works great. Thanks, OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
I'm running the NAE modem. My audio works fine.

EDIT: I reflashed MK2 then NAE and was able to reproduce this problem. That's very odd. The sound worked right away for me the first time I flashed it. I will continue to test.

EDIT2: I flashed back to MK2. Then flashed the NAE modem again and I have sound again. So my only advice to you is if you want to run the NAE modem with this ROM keep trying. Make sure you power your phone down before booting into download mode. also uncheck "Auto reboot" and uncheck "F reset time" in odin before you flash. Finally wait until odin says "PASS" before you unplug your phone. Then hold the power button down until your screen powers off. Keep holding it for 10 seconds after that and then release the power button.

That is the best way to ensure you have a complete flash of your firmware.

I'm running fine again. See the attached screenshots.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sharkytm:
Thanks for the additional troubleshooting. I rebooted and installed back and forth several times, both with and without auto-reboot and F reset Time enabled. I couldn't get NAE with functioning sound. I'll keep trying... is there a clear reason to use NAE over MK2?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
None. People claim that using the latest and greatest modem = increased speed. Me? I just run it to keep current.

I'm no firmware pro but try flashing MK2 first. Then NAE. Also make sure you're flashing it as I suggested. Unplugging then holding power for 10 secs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dinaps86:
I have sound but while playing through blue tooth today every once in a while it sounded like someone tapped a microphone n it screeched BUT I'm going to have to say I believe it came from "blazzer_irs" usage (just want to make sure Raw when u flashed NAE modem you had NO sound or the 'hiccup' I just described,?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] heltonlevi85:
couldnt get my browser to just post on the thread had to reply weird but anyway....just installed v06 for the 2nd or third time (im always jumping around to try new things but usually come right back to ya here on stockish!!) well i just got setup and ive got a notification that my system update was downloaded...any idea how this could have happened? havent seen a system update since i first purchased the phone hince since ive been rooted and romed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Did you dirty flash this from some other ROM? What did the update say?

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
No thoughts whatsoever. As I said before I will not put out a ROM that has known errors in the base. So until the lockscreen options issue is fixed I won't rebase this to Kit Kat.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kennyb123:
I didn't know there were any lockscreen options issues. I was reading that the ART runtime would save battery due to much faster loadtimes on apps. Only disadvantage was that the apps would take 20% more space, which is hardly a big deal. So, I can't wait to try it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] storm1935:
I got this message also - "System update downloaded. Touch to install".

I was on stockish v03 when I got this message last week. Of course I didn't install it and figured to get rid of it was to install the latest

stockish v06. So I installed v06 2 nights ago and the installation was smooth. I did a clean install using AROMA and installed 2 apps, KTweaker and Turbo Z-RAM. But as soon as I finished installation and rebooted, the system message update was still there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] perezmarka:
I had the same thing happen. If you go to system/cache, you can delete the download from there. But it will come back. I'm not sure what app allows the system updates or how to stop them. Anyone have any ideas?

Edit: I found this thread on another site that shows how to disable the updates. Disable S4 Updates

"If you’re rooted but on stock rom, do this to stop OTA’s

Frozen via Titanium Backup: FWUpgrade.apk and SDM.apk

Renamed file: /etc/security/otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak

Renamed file: /system/app/ wssyncmlnps.apk to wssyncmlnps.apk.bak

--DanSan"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Majin101:
I think if I recall correctly, u can hold the notification of the system update and click app info and just hide notification.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Both of you, please look in your /cache folder. If there's an update do not worry. It will not run. You cannot run an OTA update on a ROOTED phone with a custom recovery. It cannot happen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] heltonlevi85:
Hey sorry been in school all day...I never dirty flash I completely wipe everything every time I switch roms. It says android system update downloaded and to install it and has persistent notification. Already looked into app info and turning off notifications but it's greed out because is linked to android file system. Was just weird because I didn't do anything different from what I normally do and have installed 06 a couple times before. ..no biggie just didn't know if was something little I overlooked
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Screenshot please.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Naddict:
Whoa! Time for everyone to take a breath and reset in here, it takes two to tango, and I do not like what I am seeing. Please, keep posts respectful, clearly something is being lost in translation - so, a cleaning has been done.

Let's try this again, shall we?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
To be clear,

This update will NOT install on a custom recovery. So do not worry.

To delete the file:

1. open ES file explorer (or root explorer)

2. Browse to /cache

3. Delete the file that contains "USER_L720_SPT"

To turn off the notification for these in the future:

1. from the homescreen click menu.

2. click settings.

3. click more

4. click application manager.

5. scroll over to all

6. find google services framework.

7. uncheck "show notifications"

the short cut?

1. pull down the notification bar

2. long press on the system update notification

3. press app info

4. uncheck "show notifications"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xchampx13:
Yep, This ROM is my go to for TW or anything really. Hopefully you stay on S4 for awhile raw :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] storm1935:
I went into the /cache folder but it was empty. So I closed ES file explorer and followed your short cut to uncheck

"show notifications". In there I saw a button to "Clear cache" (cache shows 12.00 Kb). When I pressed "Clear cache",

it reset the cache size to 0 Kb. Regardless, the "System update" notification went away and I'm fine with that.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
The file would only have been there if you actually downloaded the update. If all you had was the notification then there's nothing to delete.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] egomaster:
I was running v01 until friday when I updated to v06. I followed the commands and used the updated philz and wiped twice then installed v06. Sunday night i started getting random black screen freezing and restart. Any idea what may be causing this. I have not used zram yet. Any suggustions will be helpfull.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Try increasing your voltage with ktweaker. Especially if you're running the turbo profile.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Try reflashing the ROM. Your problem is definitely isolated to your device. I haven't experienced this at all and you're the first to report this. Also a clean flash is necessary when coming from such an older release to pick up the new quick toggles.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] egomaster:
I thought so. I will try later tonight. Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] frostedunit:
You could just be lucky (like me) and have a phone that doesn't like ktoonsez's kernel.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
The aroma installer has 3 choices of kernels.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] egomaster:
Okay so I was going to wait till later to re-install the rom but my phone started to freeze and reboot constantly. I cant say for sure that its the rom because i had the phone resting in my hand the the power button touching my thumb. The power button window (reset, power off. etc) popped up then froze. I tested this again by just touching the button and again it froze without pressing the button kinda like a touch panel. It could just be me, but I will let you know later what I find.

Edit update: So after doing the install again it was worse. I then wiped five times and installed rom again. Worked fine till about a few minutes ago.

rawintellect you said there are other kernals in aroma I could use. How do I find these and install and what do you recommend?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] martuseich:
Was there an app related to "Mobeam beaming / barcode service for Beep'nGo" packaged with this ROM? It shows up in my list of installed apps in Play Store, but I never installed this.

It also struck me as odd that the service app is there but the app that uses it, "Beep'nGo" is not installed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
If you google it you'll see that samsung packages this with the stock ROM. I've noted what apps I've removed in the OP. I'm sure there's more bloat still there but really for every app I take out there's someone that will complain about it. If you search this thread you'll find that someone actually complained about me taking out the stock file manager. I'm serious. It happened. So I put it back in.

So the only thing I can say to you is there is an option to uninstall it in Google play.

In fact looking at the description for this it reads:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Not really any thoughts. Battery life is so subjective. There are many factors affecting battery life. Even signal strength affects it. I've done all I can to walk the line between good performance and battery life. I really haven't changed anything between v05 and v06 regarding battery/performance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] perezmarka:
Thanks for the reply Raw!

That's one reason I was hesitant to write. But I have no issue with your Rom. It's the best by far in my opinion. I'll keep tweaking with it. Thanks for all your work and help Raw! :good:

In Call Recording

Morning to All. Is the In Call Recording working in this v06?

thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] martuseich:
Thanks. lol, I've seen the requests & complaints for and against bloat in most of the ROM threads, but I guess to each his own. Some folks like to stay bloated. Makes you wonder why they don't just stay with the stock ROM after rooting.

I did see the comments about it being exclusive to Samsung stuff but thought what I read when I searched was that it was packaged with the Note.

Play Store didn't have the usual "uninstall" option. All it showed was "Installed". Well, duh, I had that figured out already. Uninstalled via Titanium backup.

Lovin' the ROM. Thanks for the Turbo Zram, Xposed & kernel options built in. Any chance of adding Titanium backup in the next release. I know I can download it, but...

I'm using Xprivacy. When setting up after flashing a new ROM, I skip all the sign-ins, turn on airplane mode & set up Xprivacy & AFWall before anything else to keep any apps from doing anything they shouldn't with any of my info. My IMEI, ANdroid ID, Ad ID, Subscriber ID, SSID, IP, contacts, info, etc aren't anyone else's business unless I choose to make it so. I have nothing to hide but my business is my own & I take my privacy seriously.

Maybe it's all a delusion. Big brother's eyes G:cyclops::cyclops:gle likely already has all my info & has likely disseminated it, but I do my best to keep ANY apps from listening in or mining my stuff. It's the same reason we root our phones, flush the bloat & break the restrictions of the carriers, because we want OUR phone to be OURS, to do with it what we want, not just what we've been "allowed".

Anyway, all that said, having Titanium backup already in place would make setup just a little easier. It allows me to restore Xprivacy & AFWall before I open up data & Wifi. Sure, I have the TiBu apk & can run it but it'd be nice to have TiBu in place by default, or the option in Aroma to install it if not too much hassle.

For those of you who object to all the crazy permissions some of these apps demand, Xprivacy allows you to manage all permissions in great detail. It also denies permissions or spoofs the information (like false location or dummy contact list) provided to an app by default immediately upon installation, so apps don't have a chance to do anything they shouldn't. I never concern myself anymore with the permissions apps ask for on install. There's a bit of a learning curve setting it up but it's well worth it!

Along those same lines, because G:cyclops::cyclops:gle keeps a record of everything we've ever searched, I refuse to use Google to search. If it weren't for the fact that I loathe crApple, Crackberry & Windows more than Google, I wouldn't use an Android phone either. I recommend www.duckduckgo.com. It's an anonymous search engine my military family members were encouraged to use instead of G:cyclops::cyclops:gle.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Odd. The uninstall option is there for me. As for adding TiBu. I'm sorry but no. I really don't want to get into that. Once you start down the "can you add _____?" road you run into the point I mentioned earlier. That being you can't please everyone. You can create a flash-able zip with TiBu to load all your apps (including TiBu) in recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
I'm sorry buddy but it seems like you have a lot more going on than my ROM. I'm all out of suggestions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
No.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] martuseich:
Yep, completely understand about requests to add this, add that, take that out, put that back in, etc.

As for Mobeam service, wish I had taken a screenshot of the Play Store screen. What really concerned me when I first noticed it was that it only had the Update option, no open or uninstall. Strange.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danster840:
You must be talking about the create update.zip option in Ti?

I know I answered one rooting question by pointing the guy to the right thread but lets try and keep this on topic. This isn't general. It's development. This thread should be about this ROM. Thank you.

Please go here and ask your rooting questions. This isn't general. I know you guys come here because experienced people read this thread but this isn't a catch all thread for XDA.

The dolphin browser when I use it has a little red box that pops out with a number. I can't figure out what it means or how to turn it off...I thought initially it was the number of windows open but it keeps counting higher..

Also I have the xvolume and tried to set media volume to 30. The volume goes higher to 30 but the audio cuts like at 23 and other random numbers ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Can you try upgrading Dolphin in Google play? I have not seen that particular notification before. Can you provide a screenshot?

As for xvolume, 15 is the highest you should set it to. The app isn't designed specifically for our phones and I wouldn't recommend setting it to 30.

For the past week I have been running various versions of the new NAE Kit Kat ROMs, none of which are ready for release, they all have problems. I am back rocking stock(ish) v06. Look no further, there is no better ROM out there.

[MENTION=1274198]rawintellect[/MENTION] I do know that you spend way too much time answering dumb questions. Other developers usually release their tested ROM and let others answer questions not directly related to ROM issues. The developer may monitor the thread and includes the fixes in the next release. The only persons he may respond to are his/her testers or those that have made donations in support of the work. Stay thirsty my friend.

You can probably do 2 things:

1. With TitaniumBackup freeze the service or

2. mounting system folder read/write and rename /system/app/SprintDM.apk to /system/app/SprintDM.apk.bak
