Zram Question

I just installed Vs 6 with no issues. Love the Aroma installer. Worked great. Used Titanium to re-install all my apps and I am back in business! On glitch: I opened up Turbo Zram and it said I had switched from another Kernel and needed to re detect my Kernel. Then it says that I don't have a compatible Kernel with module or baked in. Then it shuts down. What do I do?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CCallahan:
Which kernel did you select in Aroma? I could be mistaken but think it only works with KT Kernel. If so, can go back in Aroma and flash the KT Kernel or just download the zip from his thread and flash. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
click settings > remove app data > close the app >open the app > click settings >the detect zram type > click baked in zram > then press back > close the app with the x in the lower right hand corner. > open the app and wait.

Zram Problem Fixed!

While I was waiting for an answer, I uninstalled Z-Ram, then installed previous version. Found Kernel with no problem. Then downloaded the new version of Z-ram again and reinstalled. Opened and it ran like a charm! Then I see the responses here. :laugh: Thanks for all the advice folks! Z-ram was the only problem I found. Works great. Well, still can't connect to PEAP on wifi but that's not the ROM. I followed advice given in this thread but still not connecting. I still am researching it. But that's not the thid Rom, that's just a common issue.

guys stick with v6..hands down better then stock nae
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jim M:
Right On

That's a no brainer, I've followed the thread, until someone gets the kinks worked out and a good working stock base there is no reason to run it, besides stock(ish) has so much more going for it. I am running the NAE modem/firmware with v06.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] perezmarka:
NAE Modem

I've noticed people mentioning the NAE modem firmware. Does it add anything to the function of the phone? Where do we download it from or should we just leave it alone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jim M:
It is the firmware for the modem in your phone, it is good sometimes to run the latest firmware, sometimes it's not, it can improve or degrade your signal reception. You must flash through Odin.

How to do a complete restore to stock MK2 (also remove PhilZ Touch)

I have and L720 running the MK2 4.3 Stock(ish) and the PhilZ Touch ver 6. I want to remove all of these and reinstall the stock MK2 in advance of the new kitkat release. How do I remove all of these before reloading the stock MK2?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
This question is better asked in the general thread. But I'll give you a start...you need to odin back to a stock image and stock recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] frafael:
Thank you rawintellect for the answer and amazing work with this ROM.

One more question, the V1 as the stock the home screen indicator could be used to switch quickly between pages, I found this resource very helpful. In V6 it is smaller (5X4) and has not this feature any more. Is there a way to enable? I am talking about: "dot dot home dot dot" indicator.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
You're selecting the 5x6 homescreen in AROMA. The page indicator is still there. it's at the bottom of the screen. There are 6 options total in the launcher. including the stock launcher.

try using the 4x5, 4x6 launcher with the page indicator up.

Guys, this is the second time I've answered this question today. I gave you choices. You can totally choose how you wish your home, apps and widget screens to look.

Use the choices in AROMA guys.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jim M:
Thank you. I can confirm now that I was able to connect to the 4G LTE in my area. Apparently it was down for a couple of days.

I can say that v06 is by far the best so far of any ROM for the SPH-L720.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
So I wasn't going to post because normally I can figure this stuff out on my own, but this time I need help. I had TWRP installed and did a full wipe of my phone and rebooted and tried to install this rom. I thought everything went fine, the install finished and when the phone rebooted it just stuck at the Samsung screen and that was it. There is now text on the top of the frozen screen, something about kernel not seandroid enforced and warranty bit set kernel or something along those lines. I've tried everything I can find to even get back to stock just so I can use my phone and I cannot. I was able to get Philz recovery flashed through Odin, but not matter how many stock or custom roms I flash I cannot get my phone to boot. I've wiped and wiped and wiped again but to no avail. I really want to try this rom it sounds awesome. Please can someone shed some light on this for me. I would really appreciate it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikeprius:
Reload TWRP and first use advanced wipe and burn off everything except microSD. After you do advanced wipe select format data and type yes. After that flash Philz in the install section then reboot into recovery. .Philz will start up at that point. Then select in Philz install new rom and let it completely wipe....then load this rom via ZIP and use "clean flash"...

I tried dirty and had issues....I'd only clean flash this IMO......I'd also not use TWRP anymore...The recovery is not reliable and very buggy. It does not make correct nandroids of TW or restore them correctly. ...If you made a TW nandroid with TWRP prior to flashing this good luck. ...I could never properly restore any TW ROM stock or modded with TWRP. I used the 6.0.3 TWRP version as well
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
TWRP has been gone for a while now. I have tried wiping and selecting install a rom in philz to wipe. I've reinstalled TWRP and did what you said. What I'm really looking for I believe is a pit file. It seems as though the boot section of my phone is corrupt and I think it needs a re-partition. The only problem is I can only find one online for the Verizon variant of the S4. Man I'd even think about sending a small donation for anyone that can help fix this. I really don't want to get a new phone and as a computer tech I really want to figure this out and get it fixed. Just not as familiar with Linux as I am Windows.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikeprius:
I'll also mention for me to get this ROM to load correctly I had to completely clean out the phone.....so the wiping is very redundant however I had bootloops and freezing when I first tried to load the ROM until I completely wiped the entire internal of the phone. ..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
I did that too. I formatted the phone in TWRP. It just gets to the samsung screen and stops. I can boot to recovery and download mode but that is it. I cannot boot to a rom and I have tried installed this one and stock and wiping twice each time. I never had these issues on the S2. I would really like to figure this out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikeprius:
The TWRP feature completely formats the entire internal....are you sure you are completely wiping the internal ? Most wipes will clean for a ROM but do not wipe internal data.....

The two lines for kernel not enforcing etc. ...is not an issue...I have that too during boot and I think it just flags that stock kernel is not being used....

I still think you have stagnant files that may be conflicting with the installation because I had the same issue initially as well.

---------- Post added at 03:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 AM ----------

Hm....If you are completely formatting then I'm not sure.....beyond my expertise.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
Yeah the one I did in TWRP asked me to type "yes" to ok it. I tried to install rom before that and got a boot loop. I then formatted in TWRP and still nothing. Odin can see my phone in download mode but no matter how much I try to clean everything out and start fresh nothing works. Is there a way to wipe everything in Philz? I've followed the instructions on the OP to a T and still nothing. I know it's not hard bricked, and I know this is fixable I'm just at a roadblock at the moment. Arghh I just wanna slam my head on the desk

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
:(( sad day. Tried all that stuff and still stuck on the samsung screen. I'll keep trying and post back. Hope I can get it fixed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikeprius:
Check your settings in Philz. Is SE checked ? The other thing I can think of is your settings may need adjusting....is TWRP box checked in Philz?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
I must be on an older version of Philz because I don't see SE or TWRP check boxes anywhere. Man I really wish I could figure this out. I'm stuck using an iPhone until I get mine fixed. Someone out there must share my pain. Please help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Please don't use TWRP to flash this.

1. Flash Philz 6.15 (listed in my op) recovery.

2. Boot into recovery.

3. Select backup and restore

4. Select Misc Nandroid Settings

5. Ensure that "process SE context has an "X" on it.

6. Go back to the main menu.

7. Select "wipe data/factory reset"

8. Select Clean to install a New ROM

9. Select Yes I will install a new ROM.

10. Do it again.

11. Back to the main menu

12. select install zip.

13 Go to where you placed this ROM

14. Flash this ROM.

15 Profit.

Follow this exactly and there will be no reason you shouldn't have a working stock(ish)v06 installed on your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] chris-allen:
here is what i would do... download and ODIN a mk2 stock rooted or unrooted rom.....flash that...anything to get away from iphone.... then later download and flash a recovery using rom manager from the market.....then find philz recovery and flash that... then ODIN the nae radio...let phone boot into rom....then go back to recovery and flash negalite 4.4 or this stock 4.4 rom...all should work fine....if all elae failes... just ODIN a stock rooted/unrooted mk2 so u can put the iphone away..lol

Quick question raw v06 running luxurious as anticipated it's a question/comment about PhilZ I'm running v6.16 apparently the developer got rid of using all different variants and has united us under all jflte.....am I understanding that right or am I running blind??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danster840:
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/jflte you are right
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
Followed directions on pg 137 from Dev and still stuck on the Samsung screen. I guess it's time to get the hammer and gt a new one. I know this is fixable but I think this might be a unique situation. The phone powers on and I can boot to recovery and download. But after all the wipes and reboots, I'm still stuck. I should point out that I am currently on the Philz from the OP and still stuck in the boot screen. I think that my internal sd card partition has been corrupted or something, and everything I have looked up is pointing to a .pit file. But I cannot find one for Sprint. This is so discouraging. I hate to give up but I don't know how much longer I can stand iOS
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danster840:
For v06 use the Philz I just linked in the post above
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
That is correct. There's just one jflte now.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikeprius:
I ended up removing all the new apps except the YouTube ad app. I didn't really need all the other items and I wasn't too keen on the pie control. I also uninstalled turbo z ram and just used a custom profile in the KTweaker instead. The turbo z ram never seemed to work correctly for me and I didn't notice any added benefit.

FIX Encryption Error / Downgrade to 4.2.2

I found a solution. I now have MK2 running liquid smooth on my Sprint S4 (without the KNOX bootloader).

I made a short list of the steps I took to get rid of the Encryption error and successfully install and benefit from this rom. Hopefully this will be beneficial to anyone who encounters a similar issue,or anyone who wants to downgrade their rom back to 4.2.2(MDC).

FYI, I had Kies from Samsung installed on my computer. I also had CyanogenMod installed and running before I did all of this. If you ever need to copy files to your phone SD Card from your computer (like I did), flashing CyanogenMod could be a strategic way to do this.

Here is brief summary of what I did:

1) I downloaded a PIT file (I9505_pit_file.zip) from here. I unzipped this file and had CSB_signed_Fusion3_EUR_0325_V2

2) I downloaded an ODIN file for the SPH-L720 (MDC Modem/Kernel/ROM - Stock) from here. I unzipped this file and had a new file called SPH-L720_MDC_Rooted_Restore.tar.md5

3) I downloaded Odin3-v3.07.zip from here. I unzipped this file to obtain the Odin application.

4) I ran Odin as administrator on a Windows PC. I selected

CSB_signed_Fusion3_EUR_0325_V2

for PIT and

SPH-L720_MDC_Rooted_Restore.tar.md5

for PDA. I let Odin do its thing and voila I had a stock rom back on my phone.

5) I downloaded and installed Heimdall from here (scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Download).

6) I downloaded the latest version of philz recovery from here. I unzipped this file and had a new file called recovery.img.

7) I downloaded the Latest Sprint MK2 Firmware - Download Link (Firmware Only - No KNOX BootLoader) from here. I unzipped this file and had several files.

8) I ran Heimdall and selected the flash tab. I selected

CSB_signed_Fusion3_EUR_0325_V2

for PIT. I then selected and added the

recovery.img

file and the other files downloaded from step 7 for the MK2 firmware. BE CAREFUL to select the appropriate partition for the particular file or you will have to restart the entire process.

9) I downloaded and installed the MK2 Rom from the OP via PhilZ Recovery.

EVERYTHING IS GOOD NOW :p

What kernel are you running. I can assure you that no ROM controls WiFi signal. That's all the kernel my friend. Try reflashing your kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Kafluke:
KT kernel in original post
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Are you running the TW version of that kernel? There's 3 of them that say 4.3. Make sure you're not loading the google edition. No way could you boot with the ASOP version. But I'm not sure about the Google edition.

Try reflashing it. see if that corrects your problem. Oh and I'm running KT's kernel too. :) overclocked on this ROM with no issues with WiFi.

You're welcome sir! I'm going to drop KT's kernel in the next release. Along with my settings that gave me a 14799 quadrant score. It'll be optional if you want to apply the setting. You could run KT's kernel completely stock. Keeping with my mission for this ROM...options!

Glad rawintellect got to you while I was at the Gym with no phone on me. Kernel would have been my guess, as well, given it was a connections issue. Glad you hammered it out, enjoy it. I have been tweaking it all morning, between the ROM settings and kernel and Wanam.

There's 5 different mirrors there and the primary. Are you downloading using your phone? If so is it 3g? 4g? Or WiFi you are using? Try using your desktop.

Hi rawintellec, thanks! This my first endeavor in AROMA, so, I am understanding I have to re-flash using AROMA Custom installation, right?

So, last night I noted a misbehavior (bug?). My home screen wall paper is scrolling. I don't like this effect. My Xposed is enable, and Wanam Module loaded. When I select System -> Wallpaper Scrolling and "uncheck" (or check) reboot the phone, no juice, nothing happen. Is there any other place to freeze the home screen wallpaper?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
It's not a bug. The home screens themselves are coded to scroll or not scroll. They are clearly marked in AROMA which ones do scroll and which ones do not. Wanam xposed will not override the home screens that are coded to scroll. Please select a home screen that does not have scrolling enabled in AROMA.

Thank you.

I don't mess with the stock launcher anymore. I just bought APEX Launcher Pro. VERY customizable and works with all my devices very well, including tablets and Android TV's.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Vitamin-D:
My persistence has finally paid off. Apparently if I was on the MK2 kernel before my brick that is what I had to flash in order to get my phone back. It's FIXED!!!!!! Just thought I'd post here and let ya know since I blew up your thread with SOS signals. If anyone would like to know how please let me know and I'll link to the files.

The solution that worked for me was downloading the stock MK2 firmware, using original usb cord, Odin 3.04, and that's it. I tried like a million different files and combos of wipes and everything. This is the solution for me at lease. Hopefully I can help someone else that has or is having the same or similar problem.

Thanks again for all the input, I want to do my part to contribute.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rawintellect:
Hmmm pretty quiet in here. NAE got your tongue? lol! Well I'm working on a NAE but it won't be released until we've worked out the issues with the lockscreen options. I was part of the test group and for me the solution worked. I had full functionality of my lockscreen options. But my understanding is there's still issues that need to be worked out depending on what bootloader you're on.

And one thing I will NOT do is put out a ROM that has known errors in the base. Hang in there guys!
