23 downloads and only 1 person came back to me with any kind of feedback when clean flashing the test ROM as well as the apnfix zip I put up in the post after that

can anyone confirm LTE with the apn flash zip?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCBiznatch:
I can't even flash it. Gave up on trying both of your roms because of that sorry.

Feedback on 9-23 test version

-------------------

Dan,

I apologize. When I saw the trouble the 1st person had with the test version, I assumed you would be putting up another test version.

Anyway, I tried dirty flashing the apnfix.zip on the 7-17 ROM and it seemed to work fine, but I don't think it did anything.

I then clean flashed the 9-23 test version and couldn't connect to LTE because there were no entries in the APN list.

I then rebooted to recovery and flashed the apnfix.zip and rebooted and couldn't connect for data, so I opened the system settings and clicked More, Access Point names, clicked the Menu, and choose 'reset to default'. This then showed a list of APN's and I selected VZWINTERNET.

I then hit 'Back', and then 'Mobile Networks', and then clicked 'Preferred Network Type" and choose LTE/CDMA/EvDo and the LTE indidcator lit up and I had data. I verified this by opening a browser and going to msn.com and I got their webpage.

I hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay.

-Kev
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
I can try this weekend, cause I'm working and don't have time to install before then. I'll download Friday night and give feedback right away.

Just got a chance this morning on my day off. Here's what I have found:

1. Backed up latest stable release

2. Factory reset 3 times

3. Installed test ROM, apnfix, Loki doki

4. Rebooted and let things settle for 5 minutes.

5. While setting up google account I was connected to 3g. Could sync data and download a couple of apps. Would not switch to LTE. Checked APN settings and set to CDMA/EvDo auto.

6. Toggled airplane mode. APN switched to LTE/CDMA/EvDo but could not get data (LTE or 3g)

7. Tried to manually switch APN and could only get data on CDMA/EvDo auto

I'm off for the day and free to test any patches if needed. Thanks Dan!

What steps are you taking when you try to flash the 2 roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hiv0lt:
[BUG] When auto time zone is set, it puts me on GMT-00. I should be on GMT-04 (eastern US).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] itsdubai:
I dirty flashed the update and the mini update at the same time and rebooted. Immediately got LTE and rock n rolling!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
kk testers if you can, goto low signal areas and make sure it sticks to that APN setup :)

I will make a final release when I'm sure everything is as close to perfect as I can get it here in Canada lol

need people to +1 this but I doubt its a problem once connected to the right APN
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] -Michael_:
Dan,

Flashed the ROM and apnfix around 8am. Clean flash did lock LTE immediately upon boot, didn't even install my apps. Immediately got call to head out to one of our remote sites approximately 60 miles from my office in a very remote area. Had both my work phone (stock unrooted note 3) and my s4 sitting in the passenger seat. When driving down the interstate they did fine roaming from one tower to another in 3g/4g. The further I got from the last tower however I noticed both phones lost cell service all together. The note 3 went to 1x while my s4 stayed out of service. Few moments later showed the bar indicators but no lit bars. Tried to send a text to myself with no luck. Toggled airplane mode, selected the apn again. I was not able no matter what, to get it to lock on 1x. Hope this helps.

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------

Oh, and I did reboot and flash the 1x cosmetic indicator zip someone posted a few threads back.

It seemed as if my s4 didn't know what to do with the 1xrtt signal, or how to associate/establish a connection to it...

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

And once I got back into 3g/4g coverage area I had to Toggle airplane, select the apn and Toggle airplane off before it would pick up 4g even. .. I was sitting under a Verizon tower at this point.

Update from KOT49HJ545VRUFNC5 by JKUZE

I had an unlocked MDK5, and have up til recently been running http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2721118 KOT49HJ545VRUFNC5 ROM from JKRUZE.

However recently I received a random message about a software upgrade, I declined it, then my Home button stopped working on single tap mode. Cleared System Cache, Dalvik Cache, Tried other Launchers, you name it and nothing!!!! Can I install this ROM from my Current ROM if I update to the latest TWRP recovery? or will I need to factory reset and reroot?

Danvdh is working on the final build.

He took the links down because there's not sense in flashing the ROM when he's going to release an update soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Doomwake:
I'm tired of horrible roms and this one looks awesome!

How long till its release? days or months?

Thanks,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpjm132003:
The previous page, Posts #3442 and #3446, contain a working test build. From what I gather in the comments, he's ironing out the last few APN / signal related issues.

If you want to help him out and get it released faster, flash the test build and APN fix zip and post your results.

Only reason I haven't done so yet is I have work+school from 7:00am-10:00pm mon-fri.

I will probably do it tomorrow morning though!

I can't wait!

I'm currently running the 07-17-2014 Build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Doomwake:
Downloading now. Do I just flash APN fix after I flash ROM and gapps? Also how do I report issues? Logcat? Or what? Want to help just never done it before.

Thanks

no mobile data after boot

Went into APN selected VERIZINTERNET

Will see how its feels tomorrow. I liked the last build alot. The phone was switching from 3g to lte pretty good. sometimes i would have to use airplane mode but I have had to do that on my wifes stock S3 on a few occassions also

EDIT 2:

apon adding existing google account the 2 step authentication I never got the verify text. went to use phone no mobile network detected. checked the mobile network chosen and it switched to GSM/WCDMA preferred...changed it to LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA. Phone now worked and I received my verify text

Dan I don't get it man, I have no GPS again! On 7/17 I start with GPS works fine, I keep it on battery saving then change to high accuracy when I need to use maps, now it just says GPS signal lost when I try to use it and my location is off! 8( tried rebooting etc. To no avail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BleedingEdj:
Make that the only 2 people in this forum with this issue.

Happens to me when calling my company's phone system where the phone randomly fails to send a menu selection. I can hear the touch tone made by selection through my Bluetooth headset but the phone system evidently doesn't receive the tones and nothing happens. At that point a reboot corrects the issue. Weird. This happens every few days. Not reproducible by any specific action.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
download lte discovery... opening that and going to the map tab gets me a lock on aosp every time. hope it works for you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
I have NEVER have a GPS issue on any ROM. Never have to flash this or that to get my GPS working. Im on the test build today and opened up maps and got a lock instantly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
if all goes to plan, tonight I will roll out the final build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
After rebooting the phone there was no mobile data. In the mobile network settings the "preferred network type" was set to mode CDMA EvDo/GSM/WCDMA.

In the "preferred network type" setting there was nothing selected.

About 3 minutes later I was connected to 3G without doing anything in a LTE area. I then selected the LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA.

And toggled airplane mode. I then got LTE back. I then rebooted the phone to see if it would happen again and.... it did I had no LTE but if I waited 3 minutes it would connect to 3G I had to go back into the "preferred network type" and select the LTE global and then it would go into LTE mode
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
I guess you still have some hiccups Dan, any further testing needed from us?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:

sorry guys
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
Dan I really think you nailed this on your last build. The data issues that you been working on were fine in the latest build, you just had to be patient and you would get a handoff. I could stay on this build forever. Totally satisfied with this phone now, I don't need the new Moto X, I don't need the new g3, I'm totally happy with this phone probably forever. Until maybe the L release comes out but I do remember that you said you would be on that for us. I don't know why you're doing this for us but I hope you make a pretty penny with donations . I'm in no rush for the new release you're working on now. So take your time my friend

Love the Rom..Just a few issues

I am having odd issue with receiving Pictures and sending pictures thru messaging, and Bluetooth only connecting calls and Not Multimedia Audio...just constantly says connecting...

Had some of the mentioned 3G LTE issues, but could normally get around them.

Factory Reset, Cleared cache/Dalvick, Flashed last ROM link and APN link, loki-doki'd, cleared dalvick

Titanium backup of Text/Bluetooth settings (would this cause it)? going to try without resetting those and see

---------- Post added at 10:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

UPDATED

Re cleared and re-installed..No titanium run...

Not importing Bluetooth settings seems to have fixed the bluetooth multimedia issue, however I am still unable to attach photos to text messages and successfully send them.

Messages: No APN specified on the Device? VZWINTERNET is selected in APNs list.. Everytime I go back in Nothing is selected for prefered network type if I pick the top option, if I pick another option and go back later something different is checked, but it doesn't matter it won't send (same no APN specified message)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Why don't you wait for Dan to upload new rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipper44:
Just giving Feedback..the APN patch didn't solve all problems, specifically attachment sending (Its an APN specific error message)...and based on his prior comments he got very little feedback on the APN patch. Hate to see a released version with this being an issue just because nobody sent feedback or tested...If you read my post as a complaint, then I see why you commented just now, but it was feedback.

If he doesn't want feedback, and replied as much, then I would gladly take down my message.

Quick question, tried to do a search and read the OP... Does the device still not charge if the device is off or dies completely? I just tried to charge with the device off, but it turned it back on lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] amoeller:
Dev-Host stopped being slow so I was able to download it. I noticed that in the Pure Nexus Edition that the messaging app now has a white background, the vibration on text messages is longer, and overall the vibration intensity is much smaller compared to the last build. Is that by design or is that what Google makes stock while the older customized build you changed them? Besides the small changes I noticed, the phone is running nicely. The only thing that was acting up was on startup, FolderMount not mounting folders correctly but manually they worked fine. I have a feeling that might just be a FolderMount issue.

---------- Post added at 01:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------

Charging while the phone is off still doesn't work because that's controlled by the kernel. The kernel is the same as before. Most custom kernels like KT have that fixed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrw1215:
ROM's working well for me thus far.

On a completely unrelated note, prior to wiping and flashing this new ROM, I had almost no space left on my phone, which made no sense to me, given how little I had installed. While wiping, I also wiped out the internal storage, then flashed the ROM. Now, after getting everything set back up and getting all my apps installed again, I have under 6GB of free space on my phone! That's a lot nicer than the 500MB or so I had left before wiping. I wonder what the heck was taking up so much space, considering all I had on there was the same stuff I have now. How bizarre.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
Lots of programs store data in the phone's internal storage. If you cached music from Google Play Music, that might account for your space loss, but that's just one example. By wiping it out, you lose anything that was stored in the /mnt/sdcard/ partition (I believe)...which is not the same as your external sd card and its data (extsdcard). Unless you wipe them, these partitions carry data from ROM to ROM.
