thanks for support Surge whats your "Rom" mean we might get another treat from you soon? PM me if you need some help testing! I'm stuk in MN its fn freezing so ill have a little time to work on some **** tonight. had foxhound 3.5 up and running with network and wifi but i was drunk and thought i baked it up but it turned out i was just baked. because no backup avail now stupid liquor n green stuff.... happy new year! i'm gunna have xnote v3 and fh3.5 up hopefully within a week. any idea how i could almost load up a cpl 4.4 roms? made it to home screen on 4.4 echoes kk and on another one i forget the name now its a haze but when i touched it the boot anim appeared again and froze. that was after a cpl restarts and slight mods after itd get to the boot anim vibrate like it was loaded and whenever i touched the digitizer i got a response but nothing beyond that... knew its a long shot n never would have tried if i wasnt wasted wish someone could get this aosp on ss working itd be much easier to port these 4.4 roms.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Haha, sure if you want a stock root debloated rom. I don't do anything fancy anymore, tether mod and aosp browser are about all I need now-a-days. I can mod and port things all day but I guess there isnt anything that piques my interest besides the htc one news/social media home screen.

Anyways, im uploading omega now, its only a 1 gb so its really light! Tested by flashing to rom slot 1 and it boots to the spinning medallion boot screen and trys to load. I suspect booting it to the stock slot will work but figured id upload now in case I lose internet here. I added infinite scroll on homescreen, aosp browser w/ flash and terminal emulator, updated su, and added some binaries to bin & xbin, changed the build.prop a tad but thats about it. I havent been following the Safestrap thread or keeping up with it but ill get this to load. However anyone can feel free to test/report errors they find.

also..should this thread be moved to Dev forum now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Shouldnt have to, the modules are the same as MK2's (md5sum match) but you can flash the MK2 modules if you want, MJ7 users might have to. Once a couple people confirm its working then I think it can go to dev.

Sorry I'm on MK2 not MJ7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
I'm not sure if it matters in this case but I installed mine on slot 2 like the name in the original backup file had indicated it was from.

Then flashed MJ7 modules as well to get wifi working.

Any thoughts on if the slot # it's installed on matters? I know it did back when I was doing this on my RAZR

if you dont mind me asking what was the initial problem? I believe Ive found a bug up your alley. I keep having my wifi tethering cut out after about an hr of steady use sometimes seems longer but thats about the average then if i try to pop it bak on it freezes up, fastest way to fix ive found is a reset-fast reboot but this seems like your specialty (Surge) if it is an issue on other peoples end? dont have logcat up or anymore info yet has anyone else noticed this? wondering if MJ7 modem and module might fix it and making a MJ7 based version would make any diff?

Thanks everyone for your efforts and time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
It had to do with the way the updater-script wipes cache/dalvik cache and formats /system. Instead of just patching the script or temporarily disabling SElinux so I could mount rootfs im just making a universall aroma rom installer. Or thats the plan anyways lol as for your issue...probably a framework/permissions issue. Check to see if root is the owner of framework-res.apk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
I have downloaded this file https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0BwL6-...xport=download and then unzipped then put it in the Card/TWRP/backup folder.

I went to SS and made a new slot then clicked restore, but I don't see VZW-S4-SS-TWRPBACKUP-I545XXUEMK8MK2OMEGA18 folder.

Please tell me what I did wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Anfield8:
I'd like to give this a test drive. Anyone happen to know if the bluetooth issues with safestrap have been resolved from the earlier versions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Well its been a few days hammering away on this ROM and I have nothing to report. . Which is good. Been using it as daily driver, flashed numerous themes added multiple xposed mods as well. No problems and I like it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
I'm still waitin for a new download to be posted...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
I've tried this several times from the OP (Restore backup method) to freshly created slots. Tried in both slot 1 and slot 2. Note, I don't have any ROMS currently running in slots. Maybe it was a boo boo on my part but I do have HD RLS12 flashed over the safe side STOCK position and it works fine there. I've also tried the Safestrap compatible MK2 base ROM from the dev section to flash to a clean slot with negative results, boots back to stock recovery. Any ideas other than having HD RLS12 in the stock side that may be causing me grief flashing to slots anything or restoring there but I wouldn't really know why? :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Getting to the core of the problem...see my post in the safestrap thread. Try flashing anything on mj7 and it will pdlrobably install. That or remove the boot.img file from the MK2 base rom and delete the last few lines in the updater-script before it unmounts /system that refer to the boot.img and zip it up again before flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Thanks for replying. I might be able to follow what you mentioned although I have to admit, it's a bit over my head so I will likely continue to follow what you can come up with and I did see your post in the SS thread. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Helron:
Safestrap- wehre are the backups

Safestrap 3.11 allowed option to backup file to external card. Newer SS does not allow this option. Now, testing, and cant find the backup I made via safestrap. All I see in Safestrap folder is Rom Slot1 and stock. Idont think these are backups, are they?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Will this mean I have a chance with this? I had updated to MK2 -bootloader, ect... then flashed HD RLS12 to my Stock slot with the MK2 Module. All is well except NOTHING has been successful going to a slot instal or restore or this type of ROM for me thus far. :D:confused::fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
Either I don't understand or there's some problem with the file I've downloaded.

When I unzip the file I get VZW-S4-SS-TWRPBACKUP-I545XXUEMK8MK2OMEGA18

and after putting it into TWRP folder then SS, I don't see the VZW-S4-SS-TWRPBACKUP-I545XXUEMK8MK2OMEGA18 in restore.

What am I missing or Do I just re-download the file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gator Brah:
you have to put it in the same folder as the rest of the backups. for example...

exSDcard>TWRP>Backups>xxxx>UNZIPPED BACKUP HERE

I have to say i tried out pretty much everything available for MJ7 + SS and this rom is sweet. Not terribly feature laden but its smooth as heck and i've not found a single problem yet. Nice work!

Love the android backgrounds and animations so much i even themed it out a bit with zooper.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
I'll try. Thank you :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qudwis:
I did just as you said and failed.

I got E: No partitions selected for restore.

What did I do wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
Just to be sure you are doing it correctly, make a backup of your stock partition. Then find the folder the stock backup saves in, and put the downloaded backup for this rom in the same folder.

so if it stores in /extSD/TWRP/backups/"random#here"/stockBackup/ext.4.files, etc for backup

you want the file you downloaded to be /extSD/TWRP/backups/"random#here"/downloadedBackup/ext.4.files, etc for backup

If the file hierarchy isnt what TWRP is looking for it wont find it.

Also, try wiping/deleting/remaking the rom slot you are attempting to restore to. If that fails, deleting all but stock slot, uninstalling, and reinstalling SS has worked for me in the past.

Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
Just restored this in SS and it seems super snappy so far. No issues, other than coming with some bloat (easily fixed via any root browser). This will be my Daily Driver until something goes wrong or something new pops up that i have the urge to try. Thanks for posting!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slowbalt:
Can I restore this to my stock slot or does it have to be in a rom slot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
It should work. Just back your stock up just incase
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thunderbls:
I really like how slim and snappy this ROM is but ran into this problem after a day... Had no issues downloading from play last night, any help greatly appreciated... Just in case asked yes happens with h any download.

Update.. Flashed modules fixed it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gator Brah:
i was getting that same error trying to DL anything from the play store. So flashing the modules fixed it aye? brb...

Edit: nogo i still get the same error in the playstore. doesn't matter if im on wifi or not, it cant download anything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
hey guys google market fix (theres about 10 different apps or zips people have made to fix this error) or install a modded play store from Luckypatcher or clear out your app caches / dalvik and go into google services, stop, remove this wont delete it if it does just gapps it back) that services trick does wonders for your battery too. I'm still not sure what is wrong with it but I'm readying a few new roms right now ones an update to this one Omega 19 hopefully with those bugs mentioned fixed completely. Really hard to debug this rom when its ran perfect for some people then others have goofy stuff go wrong after a cpl days. Remember to always restore onto a newly created rom slot for best results.

I encourage the spread via mouth to mouth or website of these new roms would love to see some video reviews or them to gain more popularity. Also please continue to help fellow xda members with problems if your able too. I truly appreciate the positive (and constructive) feedback. Working on the following: Foxhound 3.6 (beta1 rom available now via this bakup method in normal vzw/android dev forum working on final stable with zip installer), Omega 19 bakup rom ready and uploaded if u find me on AH u can download it now, M3A1 v2, Chaos 10, XNote3KK, Negalite r29,Wicked 9.1 and my own rom are almost ready. this backup to restore install seemed to work pretty slick but I'm still trying to master aroma and updater sripts I'm looking for a few people/devs impressed enough with the rom willing to take over future ports and fixes. along with some people to help me pak these properly with aroma and what not.

Has anyone had the gusto to install to stock or MDK? I'm thinking both should work but I'm poor and dont feel like bricking a phone until the bootloader is figured out if it is... so if youve done stock or MDK please PM me with details I've had numerous inquiries about those options. Oh and if you like this or Foxhound 3.6 or any of my other roms thank me and the original creators. Thanks!

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:52 PM ----------

Sorry I just remembered part of my process before flashing modules... I also uninstalled updates to the Google play service but didn't think that fixed it because it didn't work after words so then I flashed module maybe it was just the restart after. Again apologize for leaving that out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gator Brah:
I actually flashed the mj7 odin image and reinstalled ss and omega rom. I have been flashing and modding alot recently and have acquired a few errors like this one on my s4. Im back up and running with playstore working again.

Still living this rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
[MENTION=3618916]gigilie[/MENTION], I can't speak much to this Rom, as when I tried it it was my user error being on MK2 with MJ7 Hyperdrive flashed in Stock Side screwing things up. I have since ODIN'd back to base MJ7 and Restored Hyperdrive to my stock side and now I can flash in slots. Only problem is I only have enough space for 1 additional rom (slot) so I chose Foxhounds Diamond Dogs v3.6 and all I can say is I'm very pleased with this port of yours. Keep up the great work on all these ideas/Roms! Great to see additional Dev work, especially SS compatible :victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gator Brah:
Play store crapped out on me again today. i cleared cache/dalvik and turned off playstore. It worked and i can DL from the playstore again.

Didnt have to flash the modules at all.

Could someone please help me? I have been trying to install the Omega ROM and every time I use the "Restore" function, it seems to work great, but after booting up I am simply shown a black screen. The blue power indicator light is solid (also abnormal) and the screen is "lit" so I know its on, but I don't get any indication of the Rom starting. No lion coin as others have mentioned.

Any advice?

I'm on an SGH-i537 (the S4 Active, I know its different from S4 but Omega has been confirmed working) with SS 3.65.... Is the problem that I need to switch to SS 3.7 or 3.71? I just finished installing some other roms so I'm hoping I don't have to change everything. I did also try the "normal" version of Omega v18, installing it the normal way, and same thing. What if I used v17, would that install on SS 3.65?

Thank you so much and I apologize as I am still somewhat new to all of this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
You need to load your kernel module if you are safestrap and isn't this version based on 4.3 andriod? If so you need ss 3.71 and be sure firmware is updated to the your 4.3 android.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppermintkitty:
Thank you so much. Do I have to update to 4.3 for SS 3.7?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
Probably. .if the rom is 4.3 base; ss needs to be 3.71 and the phone base build needs to be 4.3 if you aren't a mdk phone

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SwiftLeeO:
Thanks

I just wanted to thank you for what your doing. I just bought my Verizon Galaxy S4 a few weeks ago and at first it was great. I'm not exactly the only one who can't stand touchwiz, so I decided it was time to root, install a

custom recovery, and get the ball rolling like I have with my previous android phones. I was disappointed to hear that the bootloader is locked. I mean sure there is a developer version, but really; the average consumer is

going to buy a 2 year contract and get the phone "cheaper". It's an injustice that we are basically being forced to either use stock "software" if you want to call it that. I'd rather call it bloatware. Otherwise, we are risking our

warranty and that is normal, but the fact that we can't even install custom recovery because the bootloader is locked is ridiculous. Sure, if you want to take away my warranty because I installed a custom recovery and

flashed a rom or a kernel, thats one thing. It's another to void my warranty and tell me that I still can't do what I want with my phone. Anyways, back to my main point. I think its great that developers such as yourself and

sbreen94 are working with what you have to help out the average guy/girl who expects to be able to do something with their phone. Keep it up :)

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techbeast34:
Hey guys, I got a Moto G and rooted it after installing an OTA 4.4.2 KitKat update from Motorola. I unlocked the bootloader using this guide and that worked perfectly. I then rooted using SuperBoot, which rooted the Moto G (seemingly) successful. After following the steps for Windows, (Unlocked boot loader and rooted using Windows 8.1 x64) the Moto G had a screen with purple lines running down vertically, and that faded to green. A force reboot seemed to fix that, but now, any system apps that are updated or any user apps will not work, including SuperSU and excluding a couple like reddit is fun, Netflix, Radio.com, Root Checker Basic, and PowerAMP. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance to anybody who replies with info that could help solve the problem.

EDIT: Google Play seems to be the only one system app that works for now. Currently all system apps/preinstalled apps are crashing upon launch, including Keyboard

EDIT2: I appeared to have fixed the problem. How I fixed it is in the fastboot menu, I scrolled down to "BP tools" and selected it. It seems to allow all apps to work, and a reboot seems to keep everything working along with the root.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlBene95:
Hello everybody, I know this must be some kind of repetitive question here but you know I'd like to be absolutely sure of what I'm doing before rooting my Samsung galaxy s3 i9300. As you know now android 4.3 has been relased so I have the full stock 4.3 rom now (if it is useful it's an italian model, no brand, I'll post the screenshot with kernel and build info). I'm not pretty much experienced, but I'd like to fix some things on my phone such as a bug with the clipboard (device reboots when I click it), eliminate advertisement and some useless stock apps, create a full backup of the phone, modify touchwiz OOM to 1 to prevent it redrawing so often, and deny permissions of autostart at boot on certain apps.

Still, I don't want to lose my data (so evitate hard reset) and I don't want to install any custom rom to be sure I can still receive OTA updates normally. What's the simplest procedure I have to follow?

Another thing I forgot, I obviously want to be sure I can unroot and get warranty back in case of necessity, does triangle away work on android 4.3?

To try and fix this so far I have un rooted my phone, multiple methods of taking battery and sim out, factory reset, hard reset and toggled airplane mode on an off.
