Oh OK. Been so long since I've actually messed with it was just checking. Thanks.

So just double checking Dev nc5 for mdk aosp right.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Yupp seems to be the common thing to do with the nc5 modems, according to other mdk users. Just make sure you flash the modem only file, not the one with the nonhlos.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sevron:
Yup. Just checking on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cowbell_Guy:
A lot of us have this problem with this ROM, I think it's a known issue. For what it's worth, the CM based rom Dan out out doesn't have this data hand off issue

I took the update too and I'm not having any issues at all. Strange.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] -Michael_:
About the compass issue, I'm having it too. west and east are backward. Tried calibrating well over 20 times with 3 different market compass apps. Made no difference. Took off my case (element case with metal band). No difference. Finally flashed a touchwiz rom and calibrated with the same app used on this ROM. Wala, problem solved. Compared to my unrooted note 3 work phone they were spot on to the degree. Nandroid back hoping it would stick like the GPS issue fix. No joy.. Unfortunately it IS this ROM, unfortunately I'm not skilled enough to fix it... Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zombolt:
Quick question: Is this rom as is or is it being worked on? I'd be happy to provide a logcat if it helps get the problems fixed

Rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 NC5 4.4.2

Of course I had to root with Safestrap and have a backup. If I install loki; will I be able to use this ROM?

No

search update causing systemui crashes

It was a conflict with the update and the XBlast module in Xposed. Updated to 1.8.8 and that fixed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] s44:
Loki is MDK-only.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
Ah, makes sense. I don't use the Xblast module, i use gravity box as it does everything that xblast does plus a whole lot more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I tried the CM ROM by Dan and Ktoonsez for a few days and did not see any improvement in my cellular signal. Someone on that thread said that the cellular signal strength was the same on this and the CM ROM.

I am back on this ROM because it is a bit smoother and nicer looking for me. I also had some weird behaviors with streaming audio in my car on the CM ROM. YMMV.

Thanks for the suggestion.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] parrotheadmjb:
As do I and I can't with the latest ROM. May revert
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BizzLeonDaCouch:
On that cm build, if you go into developer settings, under Hardware Accelerated Rendering you check Disable HW overlays --- this makes the "clippyness/choppyness" go away, and it's silky smooth. I keep flip flopping between that ROM and this one haha..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BizzLeonDaCouch:
here's the zip I flashed to use Flash on any rom..

EDIT: make sure you first do a backup of your rom, just in case anything wonky happens

Flash 11.1 works for me with Dolphin
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I am still on the May 30 version of this ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
I'm going to try this on my S4 currently running an old build of CM 10.2. Does this still have distortion on DSP Manager??? That's one of the main reasons I went back to 10.2. Newer CM versions have terrible distortion. Is there any way to integrate the audio files from 10.2 into the latest CM versions to eliminate the distortion when using DSPManager??? I'm gonna give this a try for a bit anyway. Thanks.

Just had a mini heart attack. LOL. I forgot to install the loki file right after the ROM. Haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mystique:
So does this have any audio distortion?

(dying to know..)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
No
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mystique:
I know that.. I was hoping to hear if from him..

This is as perfect as it can get..

Thank you for all your hard work and constant dedication.

Slightly OT,

NlpUnBounce Xposed module.. Seems to radically change the nlp wake locks associated with Location Services.

Which has nothing to do with the ROM or kernel; but was always the main drain on my device after the screen of course..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Thanks...going to try this this week when I am travelling and have a little more dependency than normal on battery life (although I am a freak when I travel...3 batteries, extended battery case and a 12000 mAh power bank :) ...then I hardly even notice the battery when I am at home because I keep it charging all the time.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Flypanam:
Used this and it works on Chrome and Chrome Beta.

Another topic...... Is there a way to boost BT audio volume? With no USB Audio out, I made a BT set up in my car but the volume is not loud enough even with the phone output and car stereo volume at max. This isn't specific to this rom with this BT set up BTW, I tested that.

I searched the play store and didn't find anything useful...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
Yay! No distortion! Awesome. Installed DSP Manager modified by eng.tsk and it works flawlessly. No distortion and loud as hell. Nice. Now, want to get torch app with high brightness setting working. Thanks. I copied over my apk but it errors out and doesn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
You should look into Wake Lock Terminator xposed module. In the Play Store.

Just randomly lost GPS today. Can't get lock for nothing. Tried restarting, toggling, etc. No luck! Worked fine for a month!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ljcorsa:
I cannot figure out how to customize the quick settings buttons that are part of the notification pulldown. I'd love to rearrange and remove, and assign to the Quick App buttons. Can I buy a clue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
I think you need xposed framework installed then the gravity box module to do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ljcorsa:
Thanks very much for the tip. I had GB installed, but hadn't bumped into those settings. Win!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bswides412:
Is this ROM compatible with ATT GSM bands? I am on the latest update with the latest modem (NC5 Dev edition).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mystique:
I ran my vzw on AT&T for a few months. With this rom.

Worked great.

The vzw hardware simply lacks GSM LTE radio. Works perfectly with HSPA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bswides412:
Is HPSPA+ comparable to LTE? Is that essentially ATT's version of 4G?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mystique:
Well, there are other threads that will give you a more detailed answer..

But..

AT&T hspa, in my area (in all fairness Verizon has better saturation, but I am never without service on AT&T..) is way faster than Verizon LTE.

Everything on AT&T totally feels faster.. Even at hspa.. (think of it as 3.5G)..

Verizon might have a higher top end speed, but GSM feels so responsive..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] intender:
Sorry if this has been touched on already and i missed it, but i dont have access to a pc right now and am on the app on my phone and cant search just this thread.

I installed the rom last night and pretty much fell in love with it out of the box. The only thing I can't figure out is the sview. I googled and it seems like sview is fully supported by gpe rom, and i get the time and date showing up whenever i hit the power button or home button but when i get a call i dont get the answer/decline thing. Instead the phone wakes up when it starts ringing and i get the sview clock like if I hit the power button. Not sure if its just an issue with 4.4.4 since i remember reading they had issues with kitkat and sview at one point or if its just not supposed to work on this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
All the motion/gesture functionality isn't in this rom. If you have to have it you'll want to go to a TW rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] intender:
Not looking for motion or gestures, just sview functionality. I read a review of the official gpe s4 and it said it had full sview support but im not getting it and i was just wondering if im doing something wrong or need to wipe and reinstall or if we lost some of that functionality in the port
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] collindv:
I think I remember that with the KitKat update they neutered support for aftermarket (non-samsung) s-view cases. I have a Spidgen S-view armor that I love but it behaves the same as yours. I'm not sure how they tell the difference since it is just a magnet proximity sensor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] intender:
I also have the spigen case. I was on hyperdrive and the sview call answer worked and about half the time i would hit the power button it worked. Home button did nothing. On this rom both buttons work to bring up sview but the calls dont work. Other than that and a few samsung apps i liked i am loving this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CarvedArt:
You could use Hatroid's S-view. I don't use it myself but I know it works. You might have to disable the built-in S-view in the current framework to avoid conflicts. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php...mctr=(not provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=197241644
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] parrotheadmjb:
Wait you got what working in chrome & chrome beta?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Flypanam:
Flash. I quoted post #3312.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] parrotheadmjb:
Sorry that's what thought. I wanted to double check, I just never knew that it could work in chrome.. Maybe I need to do a clean install because I flashed that zip and flash isn't working in chrome or AOSP browser.. Only in dolphin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Flypanam:
I had a different version of Flash leftover on my phone (autoinstalled when I flashed this rom). I had to uninstall that, then flash the .zip and it worked. If you already had flashplayer, you might want to try that before wiping.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vprasad1:
Anybody know how to enable Voice Typing in the keyboard?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] parrotheadmjb:
I tried that before... Even then I just reflashed 07-17-2014 followed by adobe flash.zip and lokidoki.

Installed chrome.. No flash. So idk how you got it working lol but I wanna know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
My google keyboard version 3.1.19...has the mic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Flypanam:
You know what, I'm an idiot. I flashed this because I wanted to watch the Daily Show on the CC website, which totally worked afterward, so I thought it was the Flash. I just tried other sites and it doesn't, sorry to get you excited...:o
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] parrotheadmjb:
Ah well in any case.. Flash via that zip (and the one I had prior to it) works in dolphin but not in the AOSP Browser which I installed via root. Worked in the June release wonder why it doesn't work in the 7.17.14 release. Oh well at least it works via dolphin :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vprasad1:
Are you using a clean flash of the 7/17 4.4.4 build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdfrye:
Not sure if it is a clean flash. Been running this ROM for many versions back. And I have clean and dirty flashed and not sure. I am running the latest version
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MehStrongBadMeh:
Is anyone else having an issue where the phone cannot connect to 1xRTT data while connected to the 2g network on this rom? Data works fine on 3g (EVDO) and LTE. But when my phone's network drops down to 2g, I am limited to calls and sms as mobile data just won't work on 2g. I tried flashing a variety modems and messing with the APN but all the same result.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ljcorsa:
My experience as well; I always try the latest, and so far end up back on mk2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I have had similar issues with this ROM and weak cellular signal areas. Toggling your cellular signal off and on is the only work around that I have found or going to a TW Rom (which is not worth it to me).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bobg1231:
I had a problem of getting 1x to work at all in a place where TW and cm11 worked fine. I'm at this place every weekend during the summer so 1x is better than NOx. What I did was was install APN backup & restore from the playstore and backup my APN settings while on TW rom and then restore when on this rom. I have a lot more APN settings now and 1x actually shows as 4g but haven't had any problems. The app doesn't work with kit kat but follow instructions in this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2656046
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Does this have any Touchwiz features (Watchon, Dual Shot, etc)? Or is this truly stock experience compared to Eclipse?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
It is fully stock GPE rom. There are no traces of touchwiz in it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Alright cool. I might try this out for the true stock experience. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
You really should, i used eclipse on my old droid bionic YEARS ago, but this rom is truly amazing and it is ridiculously speedy. I recommend kt kernel with this rom too. I can get 3 days on a full charge with around 3 hours screen time before it dies on stock battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Now that is a big selling point for me. Currently I'm using HyperDrive (in my sig) and for some reason as of the last few updates (ever since KitKat I guess) I can barely hold a charge even with very limited use. It can be down to 90% from a full charge in under an hour, even sometimes under half an hour, or even the rare 10-20 minutes of use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
I have found the older the modem, the better it handles weak signal. I am currently on Dev Edition MDK modem. I live in a weak area and MDK doesn't hold the no signal like all the mk2+ modems. I bought a used S4 for my wife and was setting it up and noticed it got a few dbm better than mine in our house. It was on mdk modem, so I tried the Dev one, and it works much better.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
Interesting observation. The next time that I am in a weak signal area and having trouble with the MK2 modem I will try to switch to the Dev edition of the MDK modem (1545OYUAMDK+_modem.zip).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Johndoe123123:
Bluetooth APT-X?

Does this ROM support APT-X bluetooth audio?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] intender:
Mind giving us your settings because i average about 14 hours from a full charge to dead with maybe two hours of screen time. Today i am at 15.5 hours with 1.5 hours screen on and sitting on 23%. Low use day for me as i have been with my parents most of the day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MehStrongBadMeh:
That worked perfectly. I saved a lot of time using an old TW nandroid I still had to grab the APN backup. 1x data works properly now.

Also, I made a flashable fix to make 1x display as "1x" instead of "4G".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
Sure, first make sure you are using the latest KT kernel from here

A big player in battery life can be your signal as im sure you know. If you live in an area with poor service your battery will drop like a rock no matter what, im on the dev NC5 modem btw.

Go to the ktweaker profiles shop, open the "Balanced", go all the way to the bottom and download the "undisputed 3" profile. Go back into profiles & scripts and restore undisputed 3.

Here are my voltage settings:

CPU: -75 across the board, do that using the menu button

GPU: -50 across the board.

I have my CPU & NGPU clocked at 2214 and 545 respectively.

Another neat setting that i love using in ktweaker is the battery control under CPU settings, i have mine set to "Battery level low" 30 and the "MHz for low level" at 918 MHz

Also make sure you are not getting any drastic wakelocks as it will KILL your battery. Use wakelock detector from the playstore.

I have location off all the time as i never use it, and used app ops (Under security > App Ops) or (App Ops) to deny location to certain apps.

Here are my profile settings if you just want to do it quickly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Am I able to flash this from a rom with 4.4.2 and am I able to revert back to a ROM with 4.4.2?

Yup. I've been between this, cm11, and hyperdrive lately. No probs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
For the Ktoonsez kernel do I download the AOSP or Google Edition one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpjm132003:
Auto-brightness levels

From the OP:

-AOSP Manual brightness values (minimum brightness of 10 (down from 40) available on the slider)

-AOSP Autobrightness values (Samsucks autobrightness disabled)

Is there any way to modify the Auto-brightness values?

I have Xposed and GravityBox running but the Auto-brightness Levels within the Module no longer work (they don't change the minimum brightness of the screen)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
For this rom in particular use the google edition kernel. It is a google edition rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] friedmal:
Love it, just 2 issues

Love this rom and have been using in place of AOKP since they went down hill for a long time now.

Using a combination of KT kernel, Tasker, greenify, etc. getting great performance and battery life (about 12-14 hours or more) along with xPosed to make my phone look the way I want :).

Only have 2 issues: :(

1. Can't hear anything from Google Voice or Skype (BIG PROBLEM) :crying:

NOTE: This had been fixed in the 4.4.2 build and is now broken again...

2. How do I change the boot animation (bootanimation.zip)? :eek:

Since the latest build none of my tools seem to work and I am not sure where this is now stored?

Suggestions :confused: !?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spookymyo:
1. No clue.

2. The boot animation in 4.4.4 is in qmg format not zip. You'll have to find a qmg animation you like online or get a qmg editor and make your own. Then replace the bootsamsung.qmg file under system>media. That worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] suoirotoN:
i was wondering how to install the qucik mms reply thing and also the batteryt percentage on top of it. What do I do? Just flash the rom then loki doki and then the battery percentage thing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lukesed:
I've been having problems with LTE on this rom. If I use LTE/cdma/evdo mode or global, it just goes to 3G. If I go to LTE/gsm/wcdma, it get LTE data but no voice or text (which makes sense, being on verizon). It seems as though 3G is somehow prioritized above LTE, so if both are allowed it defaults to 3G. Manually switching APN's as instructed in the first post doesn't work. If I select "LTE - Verizon Internet" it doesn't connect to data and then after about 30 seconds goes to "EHRPC - Verizon Internet " and connects to 3G.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cowbell_Guy:
Known issue, especially in weak signal areas. The CM version of the rom doesn't have this though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] friedmal:
Thanks Eric for Boot Animation suggestion. That worked. :victory:

Now what I REALLY REALLY NEED is an answer to my other issues as that is a much larger problem for me :crying:

Love this rom!

One question,

Does anyone know how to update new passwords on this roms stock email?

I have looked and I cannot find it.

I read about the recent hack into gmail and I changed my passwords but I can't find where to change it on my phone.

Sorry if this is simple....

I appreciate any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tortuga:
This ROM is a direct port of the Google Play Edition S4, created from a system dump, enhanced and made to work with Verizon.

The other ROM is CM-based, like many other non-TW ROMs for this phone.

The two ROMs are not related, they just happen to share a dev.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AspenSTi:
Yep on the mk2 modem and using twrp 2.5.0.2 (I think that's the build). And no worries about the f/c it still works 100%. Thank you for all the time put in this rom is sooo nice!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
try this for the phone FC and report back :) i know its just once at boot (and whats even weirder not at first flash so id like to get rid of it for good)

data is perfect now though, which is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

report back please

*CONFIRMED ON HANGOUTS WITH 1 REBOOT SO FAR THAT THIS FIXES THE PHONE FC, LTE KICKS RIGHT BACK IN ASWELL

flash in recovery and reboot, lte should come back right away and then reboot again to confirm how awesome I am
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AspenSTi:
No go on the fix still getting it. It's kinda weird, it vibrates once for the notification then followed by three short ones about 3 seconds later, lol.

APN is definitely sticking through each reboot as well!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
just had my tester do 2 reboots and no phone FC, try wiping caches and flashing again

do you have xposed installed? gravitybox? anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AspenSTi:
Will try again. But yes I do have both installed and running. Possibly conflict with those?
