I too have had this happen with greenify. My solution was to clear the superuser setting, basically removing greenify from the superuser list and, after which you are re-prompted to give greenify superuser access.

Several clues led me to greenify being the culprit, constant vibrations of it force closing in the background. Also when opening greenify, the screen is flickering because is refreshing twice a second. Lastly I constantly was seeing messages about greenify being given superuser permissions for no reason.

Anyway, removing greenify from superuser and re-adding was the fix. Maybe this will help someone. Q

After doing some digging here's what I found. I might be wrong but its worth a shot.

Since we've never had this vibrating issue before up until two weeks ago it might related to the latest Google Search update on 10/23

Take a look at some of the comments, alot of people complaining about FC's Hope by uninstalling and re-installing helps.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
Ive had this vibrating deal on every release of the gpe rom so it's not limited to one. My experience is that on the latest update, it only does it when apps are interacting out acting weird or are about to fc. The previous versions, i had vibrating a lot more. My advice is update to latest release bc he updates everything which will help with the os playing nice. I'm on latest, kt kernel, gravity box/xposed, dalvick runtime.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gpz1100:
I sit corrected! After 3 weeks of running this rom stock I decided to try the ktoonsez kernel. For sh!ts and giggles gave the gps a try. Low and behold the compass works correctly!!! This is the first time in over a year that it's worked properly. No jitters, no 180deg offsets, it rotates properly. I've never been able to get it to work correctly on ANY stock based rom (or stock itself). Go figure!

I have looked in this thread and can not find the ktoonsez kernel. Can you tell me where to get it from? I want to give this a try.

Finally upgraded from 7/17 to the 9/30 release as I as getting a lot of the 3 vibration errors and some weird WiFi disconnects. The new release installed without any issues.

Compass readings are upside down. I may try the KT kernel to see if that fixed the compass problem.

I used the APNs from a Touchwiz ROM. Seems to have locked on to LTE pretty quickly.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scrillakev:
I really wasn't sure if it was GravityBox no longer playing nice with 4.4.2 or if it was an application update from the playstore causing it to crash out. Just decided to go to 4.4.4 without any mods.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sweeds:
The only time I've gotten the 3 vibrations is after an app force closes.

It's probably not the ROMs fault. Do you ever get messages like "xyz app has stopped unexpectedly"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scrillakev:
Nope, no notification as to what is exactly going on which is the weird thing. Phantom vibrations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sweeds:
From my experience, that's the only time I've seen the 3 vibrations. It's possible that an app is crashing in the background.

Run this script. It will continually save out logcats. When you get the vibration, immediately save and post the last log and maybe we can diagnose what's going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scrillakev:
Thanks alot for the link, however I got impatient and decided to flash GPE 4.4.4 and run it stock for now. Maybe someone else who doesn't want to flash the latest and greatest GPE ROM could run this for a resolution.

having gps issues. anyone have a fix? im on the custom version. I will flash the stock google edition if no fix.

And i love this rom thank you developers for providing this perfect Google Edition rom. Much love <3

been rocking for over a year coming from hyperdrive battery drains and bugs its nice to have a go to rom.

:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sweeds:
The goto fix has been to flash a TW based ROM, get a GPS lock, and then flash/restore this ROM.

Before all that, you can try tightening the screws on the back of the device. I've heard of GPS components physically getting loose.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] qs504792:
funny thing i was on a tw rom before this flash.. hyperdrive.. didnt have issues and used gps frequently. i can still follow step by step directions. but it will only lock for like 20 sec then lose it.

According to the threads OP, /data/cat-logs

I, all of a sudden, can't send mms over LTE. If I turn off LTE and use 3g they go thru, and if I restore a TW rom they go thru over LTE. Same on my wife's phone running the July release. Can anyone check this?

Further research: maybe Verizon changed something? Can't do it from CM rom either. Nothing but a TW rom. This always worked before no problem, and I didn't change anything since it was working, and haven't changed anything on wife's phone since I first set it up.

You can flash any of the retail or dev modems you want (you shouldn't need the NON-HLOS). Different modems perform better in different areas so you'll have to experiment to find "your" best modern. You should let each of them settle-in for a day or do as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
What's wrong with it, same as mine? I have been heavily testing the issue. I'm wondering if Verizon didn't change something for xlte or some other network upgrade that borked my LTE upload ability. I get normal uploads if I force LTE only or CDMA only(or switch to a TW rom), but allowing lte/cdma(which is needed for data and calls to work) gives me almost no upload speeds. From what I can see in phone info, it's almost like uploads are running on 1x while downloads are getting full LTE.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
So you're in Manhattan and I'm in Topeka. Pretty sure we can say this is network related somehow. I'm great at analyzing things and pinpointing problems, but I don't have the first clue about how to develop a workaround for whatever Verizon changed. Although I was wondering if there was a way to get the APN from the Nexus 6 on Verizon, maybe applying that might fix it? Otherwise, any help would be greatly appreciated. How long have you noticed the problem?

Edit: I have tried multiple modems and they make no difference, by the way. Problem persists.

Can we not just take nexus 6 apn and just flash it? Its just access point info right?

I think there are any of a couple ways to apply the APN, depending what form we got them in. Getting them would be the harder part.

Unless this ROM is what fried the SIM (which i highly doubt), then the SIM should be fine. Everything was working perfectly until I flashed this ROM yesterday.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ----------

At this point, I think my only solution is to use QPST to create a backup of the relevant nvitems from a fully working jfltevzw and restoring those items to my device. Unfortunately, I think that requires someone to flash back to touchwiz to access diag mode. Anone want to volunteer? lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
lmao Your SIM can go at anytime. I've had them go bad before randomly. Only way to know for sure is to test it, or get a new one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
I don't disagree with you, but since I'm not the only one with this issue, it's not a SIM problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
I'm sorry for the trouble, but there are so many people offering help and you just shoot them down immediately. Since you've already checked everything "obvious" my suggestion would be to ODIN back to stock, and take the phone to a Verizon corp store. They'll test it and probably set you up with a new SIM.

It's clear that there are still initial data connection and persistence issues with this ROM, but it appears most people are able to achieve LTE with CDMA voice and make it stick through a restart by following previously posted instructions.

As you are obviously not new to the forums, you would likely know that international to carrier ports often have data issues right away. I'm thankful we have a dev still working on them. Hopefully the people who jumped right to this ROM thinking everything would be peaches can get through this unscathed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
I am having the same issue as odub. Flashed everything under the sun without issue until this, so I don't think it's a fried sim. Tried everything being mentioned - was up all night trying to figure it out, and am back at it now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ericerk:
Please tell me there will be a port to work w/ MK2 safestrapped!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
There won't be..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
I'm not even sure where to start with this. If answering their questions by saying I've tried it and it doesn't work is shooting them down, then sorry? As for your suggestion, the first thing the verizon store would do would be to upgrade my firmware, which would then mean that the bootloader would be locked tight and no longer loki-able.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Thats not true. I used odin to get MDK back to stock. re-rooted and froze SDM to prevent update. Technically they can't make you update just to check a SIM card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Followed instructions and LTE is working perfectly, locked almost instantly. This ROM is flawless so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
I didn't think about them updating to MK2, so yes, that's out. Looking back at Dubbsy's 4.2.2 GE port thread, there were several people in your shoes. A couple were able to secure a new SIM from Verizon which resolved their issue. However, I believe that was prior to Verizon software updates. Not every phone behaves the same. Unfortunately I doubt an updated, fully-working build would fix your issue since you already tried going to other Verizon ROMs. The solution is probably in that Phone Info app, but a dev would have to chime in with specific items to check.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
Fair point. That being said, this is not a SIM issue. LTE works for me in LTE only and LTE/GSM/WCDMA mode, but not in any other mode. Further, it looks to only be working on certain frequencies, because the bandwidth is way down from where it should be even when it works in those modes. The problem with leaving the network mode there is that there is no voice service since Verizon is CDMA, not GSM/WCDMA. If this was a SIM issue, LTE would not work in any network mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
Here is the complete set of steps that was suggested to fix data on Dubbsy's port. Maybe some of this will help?

From the sounds of it, and based on what you've already tried, that very last suggestion may be your solution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
I wish the solution was in the Phone Info settings, but unfortunately it isn't (at least not for me). I'm working offline with a couple of experts in this area, and they are of the opinion that the issue lies in EFS with some nvitems that have been changed.

---------- Post added at 11:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

Thanks for passing that along! I've tried all the phone info stuff, so while I wait for someone to backup their nvitems using qpst, I'll give the touchwiz hidden menu nv reset approach a shot.
