Got this one up and running and I suppose the others I had tried in the past would work now to.

After some input in various threads by [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] , it came to my attention that I should try ODIN back to MJ7 and stick there instead of updating to the MK2 bootloader if wanting to run HD RLS12 in stock side which is my preference.

After I did that and restored my Nandroid of HD RLS12 to stock side then had to apply the MJ7 module, all was well.

Created a slot, and this time was able to get this up and running via restore to slot. 1st time of success with that with any ROM whether via Nandroid Restore or flashing to.

Monkeying around with it now, so far so good. One thing I notice is with Xposed Installer, In the settings under 'update' , there is an update available for it but it won't install - says something about package with that name and different signature found. :confused:

Update: Root Explorer shows nothing as in will not load up directories just black screen? :confused:

Update #3: Nevermind about Root Explorer. User error. I mistakenly restored app & data from it via TIBU. I uninstalled and restored App only and all is well now! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DevilDog512:
The system partition size is pre-set in the app code. To my knowledge you can't resize it. Maybe if you rewrote the script but im not there yet. Ppl tend to forget safestrap 3.7x is still beta.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gator Brah:
seems like a sweet rom. I havent had time to restore my apps and what not but im looking forward to a test drive. On MJ7 btw...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rslu2:
Restoring this ROM to my slot failed. I'm rooted on MK2 with SS 3.71 installed. Was able to load the Omega ROM, but not this one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Galaxys4bean:
This ROM is awesome! Super slick and good looking.

You may want to put this in your instructions.

If you can't find where the backup folder is go into safestrap and make a backup of the cache on stock ROM.

Then extract the .zip file to the folder with the cache backup and has allot of numbers and letters on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
I know I said I wouldnt be offering support on this one but since you were kind enough to try my first omega version that and I really really like this rom over any others and I've ported a good 10 new ones to the phone now ;)

have you tried deleting the slot and then remaking it? not sure why but that seems to work if its failing restore. then just restore system files I actually just had to do this earlier after finishing up omega v19 sorry I am not able to see whats the issue I believe its something with the way safestrap is "formatting" or something. hope that helps no Idea if that doesnt work you might be in the restoring boat like lazer9 had to do that method will work for those unable to install this as is. odin mj7 reroot then ss then whatever. Oh and you don't have to put this on Slot 2 I just included it incase it still mattered in safestrap whether or not you restored to same slot but it does not matter apparently. So install to any slot should work fine probably even stock if someone dared try? same with MJ7 users just flash modules if it doesn't boot up first try. obviously theres some different issues with various parts of the rom plz continue to post your findings guys. I promise nothing but I'll help if I can.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Galaxys4bean:

Is there any clock or battery mods on foxhound 3.6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
There are some modules you can activate through the exposed framework. Open the FH extras app or go to settings. ExThemes is good and so is xblaster.

UPDATE

I'm Back... thanks for assistance Tulsa!

NEW UPDATE IN OP anyone that couldn't follow the SafeStrap installation or have luck with it should try the new .zip version all issues have been updated and all apps have been updated. Enjoy it now cause theres a lot more to come (Browse my AFH directory for Unofficial and Official releases that have not made it to a post yet Its going to take me a while theres like 6 new roms and 7 versions of older ROMS I updated)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
Super! Good to see you! I'm currently running Foxhound 3.6, Nemesis 1.5, and Echoe (Echoe has a nice theme but isn't as near as fast as the other two).

I've been trying to get the Nemesis 2 running but I get an error when unzipping the package: "An attempt was made to move the file pointer before the beginning of the file". I've googled this and there can be several reasons for it. One is that the zip was created on a mac and windows will sometimes have trouble unzipping it (comes across as being encrypted?) and so the download is essentially considered empty. Another said that zips do not like empty files or folders and I believe there are some empty folders for data. Any thoughts or ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I'm a newbie when it comes to my S4 and want to flash this. I'm using SS so I just want to make sure about the module. Do i need to flash the module after the ROM or not??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
I just flashed nemesis 2.0 with the patch from Jkruse, all well here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
Mdk or ss?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
I'll try to download it again when I get home. Nemesis 1.5 is great but I wouldn't mind trying 2.0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
SS, I can't get 2.5 to boot but 2.0 running fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
you shouldnt unless using mj7 or less.. if mj7 then yes flash mj7 module (it will work without but to be on safe side)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
you guys want me to try posting nemesis again ive got a 2.5r2? port fully working but thats what got me in trouble the first time how bout i just put the 2.5r2 online in my AFH folder and post the OP in Inf dev's forum? Otherwise just put 12.1 echoe the final bean online http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407572871 in less than 20 seconds after it was posted I had a downloader trying it. lol funny stuff. I'm going to post BlackBox 1st then Nem 2.5r2 2nd hopefully all today i have a lot more to do.. n with my down time from supporting I whipped out a fairly impressive ROM myself wish I was better with name development right now its just iBBLu cause its a blue themed? any suggestions like a cross between ics/holo dark with all aosp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
yes at least put it on afh
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
AFH would be fine. There hasn't been a variety for the Verizon S4 MJ7 safestrap since I got mine last year. This is great. It's almost like having my old Sprint Galaxy Nexus again. There were so many roms that there just wasn't enough time in a day to try them all. I really appreciate your work on porting these.

Now if I can just figure out why I can't get some of these to download properly.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:

Is Foxhound updated to 3.65 because the download still sais 3.6?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Trying to get my Galaxy gear to play nice with this updated 3.6 Version. Was able to finally pair and download "Gear Manager" but [Samsung Apps] is missing from this ROM I believe, thus I'm a bit limited on what I can do/install with the Gear as in Watch Styler, ect...

Any solutions to this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I just tried to install this ROM and it did install, however I didn't get the aroma installer. The rom just installed. I'm on 4.3 mk2 using SS. I just flashed the rom and no module or anything else.

Should I reflash??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
These are international ports so you should flash the mk8 international module right after you flash the rom and before you do your first boot or at least that is what i did. After I got it going, i rebooted and flashed my mj7 module to get wifi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I looked on the safestrap thread and didn't see the mk8 module. Where did you get it from? Also since I'm on MK2 I'm assuming Id flash that after my first boot for wifi?

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

I tried flashing the mk8 zip and the aroma still didn't launch. I found it on another thread. Which one did you use??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
It was called VZW_4_3_MK8_PATCH_INT.ZIP but he might have made some changes since I flashed mine. Did you flash the Foxhound that had a DD in the file name? My build number now shows MK8 so I know I flashed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
Here is the zip name,FoxHoundDD3.6-updated-vzw-gogolie22. I didn't grab the zip that had int in it. I'll have to look for that one. Do you have the link to where u got it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
I have it in my dropbox but ill have to get it to you when I get home in about 30 minutes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
Sweet. I've tried about 5 different combos and nothing seems to get the aroma installer to kick in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
Here is what I used. Hope it works for you.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wuw5wo07gioly7r/VZW_4_3_MK8_PATCH_INT.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
just tried that zip and still no go. Im getting a failed error when it goes to install that zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
which zip are you trying to install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
The mk8 int zip. I tried the other two as well and they aren't working either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
See if you can unzip the file. You might have gotten a bad download. Try this

https://www.dropbox.com/s/zln58edpveetoqg/FoxHoundDD3.6-updated-vzw-gogolie22.zip

Oops! I thought you meant the Foxhound zip. Try this zip anyway. Are you on Safestrap 3.71?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Make sure that verify md5 isn't checked in ss.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
Yes I'm on 3.71. It'll install I just don't get the aroma installer option. I'll make sure that check md5 isn't checked as well. Which mk8 file have you guys been using??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] twizzlejr:
Where is the download for the nemesis 2.0 zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] twizzlejr:
The way I understood it is that the one we had the download was bad
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I have tried everything and cannot get this to install properly. I've tried the alternate zips and aroma still doesn't launch.

Not sure what else to try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
If ur talking about Nemesis download from his website. Flash it and then flash Jkrus minimal patch and ur modules. I'm running 2.5 w/o issues.

Minimal ss patch from his thread/op.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
where is the op and web site anyways?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] twizzlejr:
I'm curious as to what the op website is as well and also wondering if you the nemesis 2.5 includes 3minit as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
When you click on one of his links to download a file, ignore the download and instead go up and to the left right below the name of the file you were sbout to download snd click on The Great Gogolie Mogolie. That will take you to his downloads.

---------- Post added at 04:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 AM ----------

Where did you get 2.5? I don’t see it on his website or on a post anywhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I was talking about foxhound.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
It does have 3minit, just Google it.

---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 AM ----------

It's in the download folder on his website. There is a 2.t and 2.5r2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I think I found it, http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407568625

I'll give it a whirl to see if it works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
I believe that is an international rom and hasn't been ported for us on safestrap and for our S4's yet (or at least I haven't seen it yet. Gogolie said he was getting close).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pbman1953:
Nice work on the Rom!

So far I only have one issue, after using the GPS fix, In the app drawer all the icons work, once copied to the desktop they don't work all the time? Its off and on in that sometimes they work and then they don't. The stock icons do work though and the play store are iffy

Anyone else have this happen to them?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
That's it, just make sure and use the minimal patch from Jkruse for SS

---------- Post added at 05:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 AM ----------

It works as long add u use the SS patch from Jkruse. I'm running fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
OK just to be clear....flash the rom...flash the minimal patch...flash my mk2 patch

I tried that with foxhound and it wouldn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jsaxon2:
Where is Foxhound 3.65? I can only find 3.6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
That's all I did, make sure the patch is the Minimal SS patch.

If it doesn't boot remove boot.img from zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
You wouldn't happen to have the link to where you got the patch? Just wanna make sure I'm using the same one you got to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
Cool! Does that mean most of the international Galaxy S4 roms work too?

Gogolie has a Foxhound theme zip on his website. Not sure this has aroma in it or not. Sorry, link kept pasting at the top.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] saul1991:
This is tw based right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
I've noticed a really weird pattern of Gogolie's rom ports that I am having trouble getting to download correctly. Anything 1 GB or larger downloads fine. All the roms that are slightly less than 1 GB fail (show to be empty even though they are not) and give the error message "An attempt was made to move the file pointer before the beginning of the file" when I see if I can unzip them or not. You would think the case would be reversed.....

Additional info:

I've been able to download and install Omega, phoenix, Nemesis 1.5, Vision, Echoe, M3A1, (and downloaded successfully but haven't installed yet, Echoe the final bean), and Foxhound 3.65. All of these are larger than 1 GB. I am unable to get the Nemesis 2.0 or Blackbox, both of which are just a little under 1 GB. Maybe just a coincidence? Any of you computer gurus have a suggestion? Any of you that are having trouble with downloads on Windows 7 (64 bit) and only having problems with the two I mentioned?

If I'm lucky the Nemesis 2.5 that Gogolie ports will be larger than a GB.

Some people are flashing the original rom but if you want to be safe you could use Gogolies ported rom. You don't have any choices to make. Flash one of the intl fixes right after you flash the rom.

Just my opinion. I would try these first. If the aroma doesn't install there is a Foxhound theme zip but I'm not sure what all is in it. This is just my opinion.

Already ran your first file and will run the other 2

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] newtsevo:
Do I have to unzip the files into safestrap per the OP instructions or can I just install the zip in SS? I apologize if this is a stupid question. Just coming from a gnex and I'm not familiar with how SS works yet. Trying to be cautious haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
No need to unzip these. This particular one is not a restore but a direct install. Try it without the patch first. If it doesn't work, do it again with the patch. You will need to flash the mj7 or mk2 module after you reboot again after the initial install in order to get wifi working or that has been the case for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tulsadiver:
I'll remove those. I thought maybe some of the others might have had the same trouble as I with downloads. Good to know that we don't have yo flash those fixes anymore. I haven't had any problems installing any of your stuff once it is downloaded. All pretty clean. Thanks for your work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
I flashed the zip from Foxhounds website with Jkruse SS full patch and it's running very smooth. I wanted Aroma Installer is why I used his zip. Nice Rom.

weird i got a bunch of error opening data/media/vrtheme-backup/sys and I/O errors when trying to flash the patch and the modules ..?

Meh I got it. Nice ROM indeed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
plz

hey guys i love yall an everything but can we keep the cross chatter down? those last few messages can be PMs to each other next time? no point in jumbling up thread with this stuff. its weird theres never any actual issues that pop up with these roms... they must work ok?

if the goal is to get aroma installs and you have vzw 3.65 you can dirty flash over the top of course :/ thats why I do my .zips as non-wipes just use FH or whatever rom's international install then flash my zip or rom over the top. (wont work like that for restores but if you really need to know I can instruct you on how to dirty flash restores) I'm pretty sure u can do this in reverse too depending on whos cooking and go from a VZW rls and dirty aroma/flash an updated version of it one that explicitly has dirty flash like Nemesis 2.5 flash that over my 2.0 and whala or maybe my phones special never had this verified its just what i've noticed)

if your bored lemme know how these work for you: (just 3 of my ports you probably missed that might be worth checking out LR9 is fast and tiny.)
