Thanks for the idea. Setting it as default wouldn't work but that gave me the idea to check App Ops.

I finally figured out that if I turn off the setting for "write sms/mms", it no longer duplicates replies. I can still send and receive text and mms it just no longer duplicates anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ispot:
Why?

Sorry for late reply, but why what?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
Anyone else having issues with sound in certain apps?

On YouTube, Pandora, Google maps voice navigation, and voice calls over speaker phone the volume is messed up.

If I put the slide all the way up it goes quite, no sound at all. But if I slide it back down just a bit the sound comes back.

I've done the usual, cleared cache, dalvik, fixed permissions etc...

Ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scrillakev:
Just to throw it out there I am having an issue with Google Hangouts Video chat. Noticed last night that the other person either can't hear me or my voice was really distorted (sounds really slow). Previously the issue I had with hangouts since upgrading to this ROM was feedback, but that could of been quickly fixed by pressing the speaker button on the hangout call.

I wonder if this had something to do with the Google Search update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thedoman:
Did you by chance use gravity box and set the volume setting to be more increments. When I did that the upper range cut out. When I disabled it went back to normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Over the weekend my Navigation went a little whacky. GPS wouldent lock on and my truck looked like it was driving through the woods and in the ocean. DANGEROUS!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CarvedArt:
I don't think you'll find anything, but Device administrators are under System settings → Security... don't suppose you have Titanium Backup by any chance, do you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
That should say Verizon too mine does
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
What did you select using APN shortcut? I've tried selecting LTE - Verizon Internet and it always fails back to EHRPD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnfoam:
During a call, you would either manually tap the power button to turn off/on the screen or it'll just timeout per your system settings. For me having this direct control is better than guessing whether or not the screen will come back on (especially if I need to dial additional digits after the call has connected).

Also, I'm in the same boat as many folks on here - I had to install the apn selector and select my apn in order to get LTE to connect. I does seem to survive a reboot, but every time I reboot I get quick message that the android phone process has unexpectedly closed. I assume it restarts itself because it doesn't seem to cause any further issues (that I've noticed)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonair95:
Like others are saying, I also had to download APN shortcut but I also had to install LTE On/Off app from the play store and change it to LTE/GSM/CDMA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ponyboy82:
I chose the same, but it stuck for me. Prior to that, I had set everything I could find to LTE, etc

Is there any way to get App2SD support on this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
Thanks guys

Back to work on this now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trmiv:
Are you using the one from today or the 2-11 one? I'm on the 2-11 one.

I notice if I go to Settings>About Phone>Status that Network in there also says "Roaming Indicator OFF"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
That's fixed on the latest. Just need to get apns going
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trmiv:
Ahh OK. It's really just cosmetic though isn't it? I can deal with it as long as it's not causing other issues. My LTE works fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
If it's any help, I've found something interesting. After restoring a nandroid of CM (that previously had fully working voice/data over cdma and lte), I am able to get LTE data working (but no voice) by selecting LTE/GSM/WCDMA. However, I then unsurprisingly lose all voice services. I never experienced this issue before, and this started happening today after flashing the GPE build, not being able to connect to LTE, then restoring my nandroid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
it does not touch EFS

i need testers please, anyone have hangouts?

YOU MUST BE ON THE LATEST BUILD, if theres no interest on helping getting this going im going to shut down the project and stick with supporting GSM, but we are close
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blastthenoise:
I'll test it out. PM sent with hangouts gmail account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
I'll test
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:
No, no, no. Don't shut it down. This is the best KK ROM out there, at the moment. I'm more than willing to help test. I've helped with testing multiple ROMs, over the past couple years, and I know my way around flashing. I'll PM you my info.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Dubsy had some of the same issues on his old GE ROM. Might want to ping him.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
Working on framework ATM. I will need testers again shortly

I'll keep you updated :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
Agreed, please keep up the work. I'm still on yesterday's and it's quite awesome. After securing LTE, I'm not experiencing any data issues. I won't be able to test tonight, but will if needed tomorrow or later.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pjrmax403:
To Dan

It sure is Great that you are working w/S4. I was using your rom on my S3. It was the best. I only wish I was on MDK..Maybe something for SS users? I would certainly help with your rom over here if I could. Good Luck here. There's a lot of good people here to help also.:good:

P.S. Glad to see everything's alright after your accident!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] holla420:
This would be gr8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blastthenoise:
Won't happen unless someone finds a way to boot a different kernel with SS, this needs the 4.4 kernel to run.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrw1215:
I do use TB, yeah. Either way, though, I just ended up doing a factory reset and reflashing everything from scratch. Seems to be working fine, now, although I feel like my phone is slightly laggy now after this new clean flash... Maybe it's just my imagination, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shpotik:
Has anyone gotten the screen mirror or cast screen to work? I flashed eclipse ROM (TW based) yesterday just to checl if it would and screen mirror worked like a charm with my TV.. the sound worked, the whole 9 yards...just wondering if anyone has ever heard of aosp Roms having any luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CarvedArt:
Have you tried BubbleUPnP?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] coolsilver:
Not to add to the have you tried posts but... Anyone having issues with the Ok, Google options not showing for any screen? Working on my tablet so I know it is enabled on my Google account.

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

Never used it.. I would only with Chromecast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
That was it!

I disabled the setting in gravity box and it fixed the volume issue.

Thanks!

I looked under app manager. I don't even have Google search installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CarvedArt:
If you're using the Nova launcher you have to enable it in Nova's settings as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] coolsilver:
Yea that works fine. The other options in Google now voice settings aren't listed at all for lock screen or any screen. Kinda irritating
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
I have it on my tablet also. Did some research and found it's released on a "per device" some of the nexus 7 have the "okay Google from any screen" and some don't. I have it on my nexus 7 2013 and the options. We will have to wait since it's like a test run I believe.

But this morning My nexus 10 this morning just got the ability.

GPS

I tried this ROM a few days ago, coming over from HyperDrive 16.1. It's totally awesome....light, fast, no Touch-Wizzy stuff. But then I tried using GPS and like some here, couldn't get a lock. Complete showstopper for me. I tried a few of the suggestions in this thread with no luck. I tried GPS FIx, fix permissions, even went back to the prior release (4.4.3). I didn't try the "flash a TW ROM, then flash back" as that seemed dicey to me.

I'm wondering if there is any common pattern for those who have GPS working. Obviously we all have the same bootloader, but any other differences? I installed just the ROM...and the kernel that comes with it. Maybe those who have GPS working are using a different kernel? Different modems? I use NC5. Was GPS working in prior releases of this ROM?

I'd love to get to the bottom of this, because I REALLY want to be on this ROM. I'm back to HyperDrive now, and will continue to monitor this thread in the hopes that this can be solved. If/when it does, I'll be back in a heartbeat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Feltmacer:
Literally all you do is wipe, flash TW, get a GPS signal, restore backup. Not dicey at all, it's the only thing that worked for me eons ago

Haven't had a problem since
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
Thanks for the response. Can you clarify?

1. "all you do is wipe" - is this a full wipe, or just dalvik/cache?

2. "flash TW" - can you recommend one? does it need to be a certain android version, or does it not matter?

3. "get a GPS signal" - ok

4. "restore backup" - you mean nandroid backup right? so create a backup is actually step 1...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CarvedArt:
Open Mic+ will do the trick as a temporary solution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
1. Full wipe

2. Any TW, version doesn't matter...pick one.

4. If you don't already have a nandroid of your current setup then your wrong. You should always make a backup once you setup a rom. So no, restore backup is step 4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Feltmacer:
I sure can clarify, sorry I'm awful at directions online haha

1. Create backup

2. Full wipe, like you're installing a new rom

3. Install a TW rom, I used jrkruse's kitkat rom but any of them should do

4. When you boot up, I like to download GPS status and toolbox. Open it or maps and hopefully you should get a lock

5. restore your nandroid backup on top of it

It takes about 20 minutes probably, let me know if you have any other questions

Edit: here is the link to jrkruse rom

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
I tried, but it didn't work. Do you have to reboot to recovery directly from an app that has a GPS lock? I used the Eclipse ROM, but it does not have the ability to reboot to recovery directly from a long-press of the power button. So I had to exit the GPS Status app, which appeared to turn off GPS, in order to reboot into recovery. I restored from my backup, and couldn't get a lock.

As I said, I will continue to monitor this thread in the hopes that the GPS issues get resolved. Until then, it's back to HD. Thank for your help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gandhidog:
Try 'fix permissions' in recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
That was one of the first things I tried. I've tried all suggestions I found in this thread. No luck with any of them :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
did any of you try to tighten the screws under the back cover? This was a fix for the Galaxy S3. It's worth a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
GPS works for me on every other ROM except this one. I'm stumped. Thanks for the suggestion though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shpotik:
Ok for those with GPS issues.

Make sure you have internet connection and your GPS is turned on. Download this app.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cochibo.gpsstatus once you get a lock you should be fine. I was having issues too tried all the apps this one is the only one worked. good luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
GPS - Success!

I now have GPS working! I was using the NC5 modem. Backed all the way down to MDK modem, and got a lock! I'll try stepping up the modems to see what version I can get to without losing GPS. I hope this helps others. Thanks to those who offered support.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] s44:
Make sure only to flash the modem-only packages.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
I'm using the NC5 retail modem too and I can get a gps lock with no problems. I did what was mentioned before by flashing a TW rom getting a lock then flashing back.

It's not the modem or the kernel as I've tried a few different ones and I still get lock on all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ejohn3288:
I have my GPS working now and the last thing I did was fix permissions and it worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ruffneckZeVo:
I can't get root. It says binaries not installed. Should I rewipe and try a fresh install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] coolsilver:
Most of the time you can open SuperSU and let it update the binary and reboot. If you have issues with a specific program download the busybox free/pro app and install the latest version. Root should already be available but I've had to do it myself anytime I've flashed a new build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brw9100:
I wouldn't think the modem would have anything to do with GPS so that is one of the few things I haven't tried. I did upgrade from an older modem to NC2 and then NC5 at about the time the GPS issues started so I'll give it another try. I can't help but think it has something to do with one of the apps I have but can't stumble on which one might be responsible.

I've tried the other fixes offered so far (fixing permissions and various GPS fix programs) and none have stuck for me.

Really want to find a solution as I really love this ROM.

Also tried jds3118's Echoe GE ROM which worked well for awhile but then started having GPS issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thesoldier:
The GPS issues have nothing to do with modems or apps. It's a weird bug that happens on AOSP ROMs and the only fix I know of is to flash back to TW, get a lock, then go back to your AOSP ROM. In fact I just did this yesterday for this ROM and now my GPS works fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riverstudd:

Well I thought I had the Okay Google thing fixed... but no

Missing Offline Recognition files even though they are listed as Pre-Installed. en-US folder missing.

/data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/en-US

I pulled the files from my Nexus 7 and loaded manually. It listed them installed but still no options.

Not sure where they are preinstalled to but if it is corrupt I can see that being part of the cause but I would also assume all Ok Google function would cease to work. Hadn't seen anyone on the other s4 section mention any trouble GPE or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] civiksi:
You can just turn on the OK Google hotword through Nova in settings. Just doesn't work on the lockscreen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bimmerhp48:
Not the same!

The nova launcher hot word detection is not like "OK Google everywhere" key word is everywhere! Nova only works while you are on the home screens or drawer. Google now everywhere works on whatever screen you are on, even open apps.

I'm starting to think this is an issue with the ROM, I only see this issue when I come looking in this thread. Yes it was distributed on account basis, but the fact that no one on this thread has it working raises a question. Everyone I know has this feature working on their device, except for me... Coincidence?? Maybe. But if anyone here running this rom has the feature working then please share your trick,. I have tried them all :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] civiksi:
My bad. I do think it's rom related. My nexus 7 got it about a week ago and they are both on my account. I tried all the tricks out there for my s4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bimmerhp48:
it's cool

I just wanted to clarify it. I hope it gets fixed, because this is the best ROM I have had on my s4. Definitely scratched the itch I had for a nexus 5, that I can't have on Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cowbell_Guy:
Anyone want to share their kernel experiences? I have always used KT in the past, love the customizations. But the stock one included in this rom is so rock solid stable I haven't even bothered with it yet... Not sure if I see a reason to switch!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] amoeller:
I've been using Googy-Max3 Kernel for about 3 weeks now and all I can say is that its pure butter with the best battery life I have ever seen with this phone. I constantly get 12 hours of battery use with still only 50% battery remaining. Screen on time at around 1.5 hours. What I really like about Googy is that its basically a stock kernel but it allows for many customizations with his included app like KT. IR blaster works and charging while off also works. I found it here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2741181 and don’t forget to immediately flash loki-doki.

When OK Google Everywhere is set to listen at all times its a resource and battery hog.

Plus why would you want Google listening to you all the time? Google tracks everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
I can confirm that I can't get it to work. Good thing I don't want to use it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bimmerhp48:
Well for one, I like to be the one to decide whether a feature is useful to me or not, this is android not ios!

Why do you bother posting something that isn't helpful to anyone. BTW if you are worried about being tracked at all, then you should truly consider getting rid of your smartphone, and lock yourself in your nuclear bunk!

"OK Google Everywhere " update

Hey I just restored a 4.4.2 aosp ROM I was using before this and I'm here to report that OK Google from any screen is working flawlessly. I think this confirms that the issue may be ROM related. Just thought I post my findings for anyone out there curious on the missing feature.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cowbell_Guy:
Are you on 4.4.4 with this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] amoeller:
Yes I'm on the latest build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] civiksi:
I gotta confirm it is this ROM. Sorry Dan. I went out with a friend of mine that doesn't know sh*t about sh*t when it comes to this stuff. He has a Moto razr M. He let me play with it. I updated google search. Did the whole google "google now everwhere" search. Bam. It was on there. He did the voice recordings 3 times. Totally worked. Tomorrow he will complain about how bad the battery life got.

Wow!

I wasn't trying to be a ****. I was just saying that it's a battery hog. That's not opinion, that's fact.

The other statement was an attempt at humor.

Thanks for the insult.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bimmerhp48:
I guess I was the one being a ****. Anyways my apologies for being in defense mode..Its happened more then once, where you come looking for solutions and all you hear is peoples opinions on why you don't need it or want it. Whether the feature is a battery hog or not is neither here nor there, Google gave us the update and is there with an on and off switch for those who want it. My problem is that I don't have a switch, simple as that. Thanks for your input, but the problem still stands. Be well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] civiksi:
Got a real noob question. I've been flashing for years but I have never played with kernels. Debating flashing Googy-Max3 Kernel. Mainly so I can charge while the phone is off. If for some reason I don't like it how would I restore the stock kernel that came with this ROM? Just Dirty flash the whole ROM again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stark23x:
Question: Any reason ANT+ doesn't work here? Every other 4.4.x rom I've tried seems to have it natively or active once all the ANT+ radios and plugins are installed from the market, but this doesn't work. Even using ANT+ Enabler from the market and successfully patching, it still doesn't work. It's literally the one thing keeping me from settling on this ROM forever and ever and ever. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cowbell_Guy:
Do a nandroid backup first
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] civiksi:
Thanks. That's what I figured. Didn't know if there was a quicker way.

The suggested solution is to fix a build prop line that I haven't been able to find in this rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ljcorsa:
Googy-Max STweaker FC

I've also adopted it the past few days. Nothing remarkable changed for my usage pattern. YMMV.

I have not been able to tweak very many settings with the included Googy-Max STweaker app, however. This is not a showstopper to me, as I assume kernel defaults are set "ideally" (in the kdev's opinion and as far as I can tell).

BTW the AEL kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2711416) also works. I switched to Googy-Max mostly because I'd never heard of it :cowboy:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
I am trying googy, too. I found a few key (for me) settings. Fsync disable, audio gain, and read ahead all make a noticeable difference for my usage. May ruffle a few feathers, but I think I am done with overwrought governors. It's like 100 pounds of effort for a ounce of gain. Battery life is simply not a concern for me with this phone. I have NEVER run out of juice. So I am just going to run stock on demand, get superior performance, not run out of battery, and let everyone else suffer with tweaking for no gain from now on, lol.
