Why...just wondering...but if you have custom recovery you can run mj7 and probably soon mk2...and all without losing loki
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] berfles:
I don't really know, there's been a few updates and there has to be some improvements worth having by now. I do have custom recovery, I wasn't sure if trying anything would make me lose that capability though. Once I rooted and installed it I got out of the whole modding scene so I have no clue what's going on at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jamesd1085:
Taking Verizon update to newer firmware will remove your ability to flash aosp ROMs cyanogen mod and all the other greats...safestrap for newest firmware has extremely limited support at this point allowing you to only flash touchwiz ROMs based on mj7(only 1 or 2 as of now).but if you stay on mdk you can flash aosp as well as update to mj7 without locking yourself out permanently (or at least until another workaround is found)...they have worked tirelessly to gain access for custom recovery... Seems close...but may never happen...if you upgrade and no new exploit is found you will be stuck with touchwiz only for as long as you have your device

ME7, I've been tempted to upgrade since it sounds like Safestrap is working, but I've held off because I've been figuring that ME7 would be the most likely to get something working; that and the fact that I'm not totally sure that I remember how to get the thing to update anyway.

Mdk, and personally I believe to work on MK2 because if hopes do come up for an exploit/bootloader unlock then people would update to the latest to unlock anyway. People can't downgrade to me7 if it were to happen on me7.

Yes, I configured my ROMs kernel (current one)... But I Don't want to wipe out the changes I made. I want to install a new ROM, which of course will install a completely new kernel.

So... What I did to my kernel:

Through Ubuntu Terminal ADB, I got the /proc/config.gz and edited my kernel to optimize it for my external USB adapter. (My phone: Galaxy s4 i9505, my ROM: CyanogenMod 10.1 stable)

Here's the ROM I want to install:

http://wccftech.com/update-galaxy-s4-i9505-to-android-4-4/

So if anyone could reply if they know how to do kernel building and configuring and could help me, it would be VERY MUCH appreciated (: In fact, I might donate!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrzhadow:
Try trickster MOD kernel settings from the play store. Use the donate 1 to unlock the ability to save your kernel preferences. Just be sure to have the kernel you are running now in a zip file so you can flash it after your new ROM and then restore your settings through trickster mod. Good luck!!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick Hill:
I have a couple of these. Seem basically sound phones, using MTK6589 quad core, dual SIM, 4G ROM, 512Mb RAM,

Google play and services is absent from the default install, which has a lot of Chinese-centric apps. eg, a Chinese-only opera web browser.

It is easy to root using Kingo android root.

The default software makes this otherwise reasonable phone look rather tacky, and misses so much functionality westerners expect from the (missing) Google infrastructure.

I'd like a vanilla android for this with gapps, etc..

I am getting extremely slow Wifi speed on the latest Verizon stock 4.3 ROM.

Now i remember correctly in AOSP rom, there was an option to disable power saving mode in the wifi menu. But I dont see that option in the stock rom. I suspect that is throttling my wifi speed.

Also tried to access hidden menus and all the codes do not work anymore.

Anyone knows anything to fix the Wifi speed??

It is far from being ready to be used, but it promises greatly.

On my device, it booted fine with GPE graphical desktop, and I could launch apps via the touchscreen, although most of the time they kept crashing on launch. But sometimes they worked ok.

The present kernel doesn't support sound. There is no app for phone (and maybe no drivers too).

Bluetooth seems to be working.

But it still needs a lot of work!!!

You need a custom recovery to boot the recovery image. So read the sticky about how to do that.

If you had a custom recovery, vol up + power would boot into that recovery.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knightesarmor:
Put on CM11 Nightly (20131218) and I am having issues with handoffs from 4G back to 3G (although 3G to 4G seems to be fine). I can turn off radio and back on and everything is fine, but was wondering if anyone had a better idea about this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asarjip:
official or unofficial build?

what gapps did you choose?

did you dirty flash or do clean install?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knightesarmor:
Official nightly

GApps 20131208

Clean flash (format /system, dalvik, cache, and data)

I've since gone back to 10.1 since it seems to be the most stable for data handoffs, but I would love to get KitKat going again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FivePiece:
I'm seeing the same problem with the latest snapshot (cm-11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2-toroplus.zip). I plan to switch to CM 10.1 for now, as well, since 10.2 still has known "Issues between 4G and 3G switching".

(wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Known_Issues_page_for_toroplus)

Any updates would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FivePiece:
I updated from CM11 Snapshot M2 to the recently posted Snapshot M3. The 3G/4G handoff problems that I was having in M2 appear to have been fixed in M3. However, the (stock) portable wifi hotspot function isn't working properly for me now with M3.

After some additional testing I've found out that my signal cuts out and has problems reconnecting after activating the portable wifi hotspot (similar to the previous 3G/4G handoff problems). And the my other devices can connect to the portable hotspot but they do not get an internet connection. It appears that turning off the portable wifi hotspot and then toggling data may reset the data connection.

Is anyone else experiencing the same behavior?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yotvb531:
I've been having all sorts of data issues lately, even worse I think with M3. But, I haven't cleaned flashed in a while. I hadn't thought to try toggling hotspot--I'll have to try that next time I can't get any data (3g or 4g). Over the weekend I had to hotspot my phone a bunch and since lte doesn't yet reach my house I had to hotspot 3g and that was working just fine. I'd be interested though, if you're consistently having good 4g data or if it was just a momentary fluke for a day. It seems like some days I've had no issues with 4g and other days it's been a bear where I struggle to even get 3g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FivePiece:
yotvb531, your suspicions were right... After 1 day of flawless data handling on CM 11 Snapshot M3, I experienced a hiccup during a 3G/4G handoff. Soon after, the data handoff problems became routine like they were with Snapshot M2 (perhaps worse). Although toggling the data connection would get the network to reconnect, the data connection problems occurred often enough to make me revert back to CM 10.1.3 a day or two later.

I'm now anxiously awaiting the next CM 11 Snapshot, hoping the data connection problems will be fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yotvb531:
After not being able to pick up 4G from the snapshot on, and hearing from others that they had 0 issues on a clean flash, I finally spent the 5 hours to clean flash my phone (I also formatted the sdcard while I was at it because I hadn't done that either in a very long time).

Happy to report that ever since then (12 days and counting) things have been very smooth. I've had issues only twice, but based on the behavior I'm pretty sure they are attributed to cell tower maintenance and not my phone freaking out...mainly because it didn't matter what I tried and then hours later after I had given up messing with settings everything started working again and was then fine for a week afterwards...and also after that outage the data speeds went from 1 Mbps to 8 Mbps.

Not saying a clean flash will fix everyone's problems, but it definitely did wonders for me...fingers crossed that when I finally decide to move on from the 2/13 nightly everything will continue smoothly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yotvb531:
There I went jinxing myself! I had to toggle airplane today after leaving work to get 4g to pick up. Was stuck on 3g EVDO. Toggling airplane mode got it to switch over to eHRPD which then allowed it to pick up the 4g. So maybe the hand-offs aren't perfect, but act fine most of the time--in my situations.

That same behavior happened once before on this same nightly (2/13) and I chalked it up as tower maintenance. That was in addition to the other time I mentioned where speeds jumped from 1->8 Mbps and I didn't have to do anything for the lte to return. I think that one was actual tower maintenance; just the other one wasn't...and it happened again today...twice in 14 days isn't too bad but it's definitely not perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FivePiece:
If I could get CM 11 to behave like that I'd switch right back to it. My problem wasn't that it would get stuck on 3G, it's that it would get stuck and not have any data connection until I either toggled data (e.g. airplane mode) or restarted. This would happen multiple times per day.

While I always clean flash, I never format my SD card. I assume this step has to be done separately from flashing, correct? Is it a best practice, or can just the Android folder (any others?) be deleted?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yotvb531:
I did my internal storage wipe at the same time under advanced wipe in twrp (cache, dalvik, data, internal storage). I don't think it has to be done very often...I hadn't ever done it since the toroplus phone first came out so I had a lot of garbage and hierarchical messes all over the place (the 0 folder in 4.2 that was created...).

I doubt wiping the internal storage has any effect on the functioning of the data hand-offs; but I just don't know either.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rudjgaard:
Yes, another proximity question! (:

I have trouble with this sensor using 3rd party apps.

On system it works fine without a problem (screen on/off during phone call never had any problems)

but any apps which use this sensor stops working after rebooting.

-Gravity screen on/off

-Automaton gestures

-Automate it!

These are the apps I tried and encountered problems with...so pretty much all of them!

The sensor works, cpuz sees it working with both distances 3cm near and 10cm far, but apps don't :S

For example if I try to record sensor state in automate it it just reads '10 far' and notihng else.

aamof rules with sensor far work fine but with near don't....

I encountered this problem both across 10.1 and 10.2 and different roms...anybody else encountered this isse?

I recalibrated tegra.so from adb...I'll try to go back to stock and try from there recalibration but seen thtat it "works"

I'm not sure how that is going to help.....
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
yeah, i noticed in viber screen doesn't turn off when you put your phone enxt to your ear. i dont have any other apps that use proximity sensor other than phone app, but that one works without issues.

the issue persists in stock as well as custom roms. no idea how it was on ics, though
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rudjgaard:
It also appears on stock?! wow never would've thought...

It's a pretty considerable bug to have never been mentioned before...

all problems with proximity encountered so far always seemed caused by bad calibration..

this kinda sux :S

Devs and wise people, do you think this could be caused by the fact that the 'near' state is set at 3cm reading and 3rd party apps look for 0 distance with 0% tolerance to have widespread compatibility?

Do you think it is possible to change these settings?
[General Omni Discussion] redskinsfan:
Hi. Just noticed that nightly builds for i605 (Galaxy Note 2 on Verizon) were available. Downloaded and installed them using both TWRP 2.6.3.1 and CWM 6.0.4.3. In both cases, the rom installed okay, but I didn't have voice or data. This happened with both the nightly from 12/19/13 and the nightly from 12/17/13. I did a clean install (factory reset, wipe system, wipe data) before flashing the omni nightly. Anyone else experiencing this?
[General Omni Discussion] kenobi112:
I too experienced the same thing. Hoping it gets worked out soon.
[General Omni Discussion] sunglint:
Try installing SELinuxModeChanger from the play store and set it to Permissive. Thats what I had to do to get data back after the 12/20 OTA on my Galaxy Note 2. Tried both TWRP and CWM before that.
[General Omni Discussion] redskinsfan:
Thanks for the suggestion. Just installed the 12/19 nightly via twrp 2.6.3.1. First thing after it booted was to download SELinuxModeChange app and set to permissive. Then rebooted but still no voice or data.
[General Omni Discussion] sunglint:
hmmm... maybe try PhilzTouch CWM, it's a non-standard CWM. IF you do you can flash the nighties from the OpenDelta folder, system update will drop you into recovery and it'll error the update but you can install manually.
[General Omni Discussion] travisn000:
I'm also interested in a fix for this..I played around with the rom for a few hours on wifi before realizing that there was no cell connection.

I have philz installed, so maybe I will take a look through its settings and also try the app suggested. Is it possible that maybe its an APN issue?

EDIT:

..I did find that the zips to add multiwindow support do work on the nightly though! :D
[General Omni Discussion] travisn000:
I just tried again... Seems that it is not recognizing the Sim is installed, and also shows no baseband. I'm on the latest, MJ9. IIRC
[General Omni Discussion] travisn000:
I tried updating apn conf, as well as a buch of related apks, all pulled from slim's 4.2.s which works pretty well (gps is slow, but cell/data work normally). Nothing I tried helped...
