I've been using this ROM for months now with no problems, but after flashing the latest update I can't receive calls. It will start to ring and then the Phone app crashes and sends the call to voicemail. Tried flashing it twice with a clean install and no luck. Anyone have any thoughts?

Lollipop kernel question

I know this has nothing to do with the ROM and is completely a kernel issue, but does anyone know of a lollipop kernel that will work with this ROM that doesn't screw up the compass? Normally it's not a big deal, but I occasionally use my phone as my when I'm out hiking/hunting. I've got a few trips planned for the summer and fall and would love to have a working compass. I've only tried GoogyMax kernel, does the AluCard kernel fix the issue?

I know back when this ROM was on KitKat the issue was solved with some of KToonsez later kernels but it doesn't look like any of those work for the 5.0 GE ROM's.

Otherwise, still loving the ROM and my phone. Thanks again Dan!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
Rom observation(very minor detail): the contacts in the Dailer are still teal/green even though the ones in the Contacts app show correctly as light/sky blue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cambunch:
Which part? Mine all look correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
You know, the little circles with letters in them when there is no picture for the contact. The teal green ones should be the same color as the floating keypad button. Look at the contacts list in the Dailer app and compare to the list if you open Contacts app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cambunch:
Ah yep, I agree. Mine are all randomly colored or have pictures so I only have a single contact that is teal.

Don't worry. Danvdh has an awesome ROM for the nexus 6! Been running it for a few days now. [emoji57]

That's great to know. I'll look for it, unless you have a link. Thanks friend!

I am having major issues with MMS, I can't seem to send or receive MMS messages at all.

I have tried switching my network type back and forth from Global to LTE/CMDA/EvDo. Can't get it to work on either. I have also tried the stock messaging app, textra, and hangouts. Still a no go on any of those. Any ideas on what else to try? Currently on the 03/03/2015 build with the Googy kernal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] danstah:
What are your MMSC settings?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AzureShadow:
Honestly, I didn't know that setting existed until you said something, but it looks like mine are blank. You are talking about the setting in Settings->Wireless & Networks->More->Cellular Networks->Access Point Names, correct? I am guessing these should be set to something, but I have no idea what because I have never needed to set or tweak them before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] danstah:
That's pretty normal with this ROM

What I'm talking about is inside your SMS app there should be an option to enter an MMSC. It should be http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AzureShadow:
Thanks for your help, throwing that into textra and then rebooting seemed to fix the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 11secEVO:
I need a little help fellas. I just rooted my Verizon Galaxy S4 I have the following:

TWRP Manager, SuperSU and Safestrap. I am on 4.3 can this rom be installed on this device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbradley07:
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but no, this ROM cannot be installed on your device. It only works on a S4 with the original MDK bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
So I installed cm12 latest on my gs3 and noticed that they include the option to remove Google search from recent apps. After opening many apps then closing them, it's like butter, closes right away. Some might not notice but ever since they put the search in there, it just hiccups and suffers slightly on my gs4 gpe. I think it's the search. So, in the future update, can you please include that option to remove? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
I notice a lot of lag on the recent apps when opening it, if you haven't used it in a while. I'd be very interested to know if this is search related and fixable. Never happened on kitkat, it would open/close instantaneously every time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
I agree completely. Very smooth on kk. The way I look at it, it takes a few seconds to bring up Google search after clicking on it, I would imagine it adds to the hiccup when opening and closing recent apps. It's built in to my home screen, why the F would I need it on my recent?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
Makes perfect sense. And the delay does appear to be the exact same as opening Search after a period of non-use. Maybe this is something Dan can address now that we think we know the cause.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheBadBen:
It could be the difference between 5.0.1 and updated builds. It may be a non issue by the time we see 5.1 on the GS4 anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
So I noticed this today. Family member took a picture, on factory gs5 4.4.4, sent it to me Dan's gpe 5.0.1, my dad, gs4 stock 4.4.2, sister, stock gs5 5.0. The pic comes in at 1280x720 nice and clear on there phones and on mine, 480x320 not clear obviously. To my knowledge, this has been like this for me since flashing Roms. I always thought it was just downgraded BC of the network. Is this from factory software or what? I'm using Google messenger FYI. There using stock tw messenger.

Occasional WiFi disconnect

Occasionally I find the my phone has disconnected from my home WiFi network. When going to the WiFi set up screen it say something like "Authentication problem." When I select the access point and hit connect the phone quickly reattaches with making no changes to the WiFi settings.

Anyone else seen this behavior?

I am going to try "Forgetting the setting" and creating a new profile to see if that helps. Otherwise the latest ROM (3/15) is working great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
I don't know that we are guaranteed to see 5.1, although I do expect it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] el6006:
Can someone tell me whether you can dial out using the stock dialer using your Google Voice number on the latest versions of this ROM. Last time I tried it wouldn't work. It's been a while though. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
Anyone have any issues w/ sending/receiving picture messages? For some reason it says download failed for me everytime.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lSUPERFLYl:
Happens to me all the time, I just deal with it because IDK about a fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bswides412:
I have gotten that message before, but it is often for messages that are very old. When I ask the person about it, they claim they never sent anything... Other than those few instances, I have sent and received multiple pics without issue. I sent half a dozen today in fact.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
Something else I forgot to mention, when BT is paired to radio, when someone calls, when you select the output, headset speaker or BT, it just shows a black box, no text to identify the selection. You can guess where to select and it will still switch but it's a black box. FYI. Anyone else read my previous comment about the pics through MMS DL at low res when stock receives MMS in hi red? Dying to fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RileyB:
Brilliant work!

Absolutely brilliant work!!! Thank you VERY much!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
So what can I do to fix this? I cannot receive nor send any picture messages.

I use Hangouts and my pic downloads seem normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abarthle:
Thanks so much for this ROM. Works like a charm so far and I was upgrading from 4.2.2 :P quite an improvement.

One thing I've noticed and it could just be my ignorance but I see no way to add a google calendar account in this ROM. Am I just missing something?

Thanks again fellas!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cognitivedissonance:
Have you tried a different SMS app and/or the settings of your SMS app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
Yes, i DL hangouts today and switched it. Didn't do anything. Still gets pics at 480x270 res. Very frustrating. Any settings that would affect it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cognitivedissonance:
Can't say for sure about that one way or another, but I know GO SMS has some settings that might be relevant. Seems pretty technical so I can't be sure. I attached a picture of the GO SMS settings I'm taking about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackburnt:
Working great so far except two crucial things: My mic and camera won't work:

Camera: It'll show an image, but as soon as I try to take a picture, the camera app crashes.

Mic: Google Now won't pick up my voice. Tried calling someone and no audio either.

EDIT: Just restored a backup and both mic and camera work fine, so it's not a hardware issue. I'll play around with it a bit more, but obviously this is a deal breaker.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheBadBen:
You may have to download Google Calendar from the Play Store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abarthle:
Brilliant lol there's a DUH moment. Thanks, that was the whole issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abarthle:
I've just experienced a similar thing. I cannot send or receive pictures messages. It shows that I have a message but says download failed when I go to download it. It also fails immediately if I go to send one. I am using the stock Messaging app.

Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pkaczor:
Textra shall set you free.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jesand83:
If it makes you feel any better I just checked and all of the pics I receive via mms are coming in at that resolution too. I just thought it was crappy network compression.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
It doesn't make me feel better but thanks for sharing lol. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abarthle:
Thanks man for the heads! Works great, pictures are working again, w00t!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
I also have GPS problems. For some reason it doesn't work. Anyone else have this issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ermacaz:
Same
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
UPDATE:

I still have GPS Problems. I have tried the GPS Fix and GPS Status and Fix apps, but they literally can not find a location for me.

What's weird is that Google Maps can detect where I am, but once I start navigation/start moving the estimated location blue circle gets extremely large and it says "GPS Signal lost." Can someone point me to the right direction? I clean wiped my phone, and flashed the newest update yet I still have this issue.

Please help.

Thank you,

J
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ecossais:
A solution that often works for this problem is to install a TW based ROM get a GPS fix then immediately restore a nandroid of the problem ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
Its happened to me a few times a while back. I just flash and old cm11 rom, all the tw are very large compared to 200mb cm roms. Worked for me. But i dont restore, i re flash dans after that and wiping of course.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iamjerry123:
Ahh -- I forgot about that trick. Just out of curiosity, why is it that we have to revert back to a TW based ROM?

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

What app do you use to get your GPS back?

EDIT: I used this TW Rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2351840 to try and get my GPS back. Could this be the reason why my GPS Got messed up? I flashed this ROM back (it's TW) but it still can't find a lock no matter what app I use to fix this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
I don't use any apps. When you flash a cm ROM it enables high accuracy. Just let it sit for a minute then go wipe and re flash this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cambunch:
I've had GPS issues a few times and have always had to Odin back to stock in order to get it working again.

Strange issues

Hello everyone,

I have some strange things going on since updating. I would appreciate any advice.

GMail Crashing

Randomly, gmail decides it isn't going to work anymore. It'll crash MULTIPLE times in succession with error messages just barely appearing on the screen. Eventually the error messages stop and it just stops trying. Gmail then won't launch again until I update it. Which brings me to my next point:

Apps re-updating constatnly

I have what appears to be 3 apps that need to be updated every time I reboot my phone. Gmail, Google Text to Speech, and Snapchat. I can do these updates and they are fine. I can then reboot my phone and suddenly they are in need of updating again even though I just updated them. Could something be causing these to revert to an older version?

Google Photos App acting strangely

I'll randomly get a bunch of "broken image" icons in the middle of pictures in albums. I'm not missing any pictures, though. Also, sometimes, I'll get a blank "tile" in the list of pictures that doesn't have the broken image icon in it. These are totally delete-able and don't cause me to lose anything.

Also, sometimes, it will start backing up images to the cloud that appear to have already been backed up. For example, right now it has about 500 images that it says it is backing up and I don't understand why.

IR Blaster stopped working

I've mentioned this before in previous versions - but all of the sudden my IR blaster stopped working. The last time this happened, I didn't actually do anything to fix it - it just one day began working again. I can tell that it is *trying* to work - I pointed it at a webcam and hit buttons - you can see it flashing, but it isn't actually working with any of the devices I have configured to work with it.

Ringtones & notifications

I have a couple of ringtones and notification tones that I've always kept on my SD card in the "proper" locations. They show up in the list when I go to select ringtones, etc. However, randomly, they will "unlink". I go to my sound control panel and it says "unknown ringtone". I can re-select it and it'll work, but at some point, it goes back to "unknown ringtone" again. I temporarily fixed this by moving them to the internal storage in the proper locations - so far they haven't stopped working while on the internal storage.

I haven't really done anything to try to fix this stuff yet. I'm thinking about doing (another) wipe and re-install to see if it straightens anything out. I have not updated to the 20150315 version that is showing in the "OTA Updates" app yet.

Of note, I was running the KitKat version of this ROM and the only "problem" I had was that whenever I received a phone call, I'd often get a message that "contacts" had crashed. But I'd be able to get the call and I was always able to re-launch contacts if I needed it.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pkaczor:
I have been seeing this lately with Google Text to Speech. I had seen this with Gmail as well, but no longer after installing 3/15 this weekend. Glad to know I'm not alone; I started wondering if my internal memory was somehow getting corrupted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azjaffo:
I have to admit, I was wondering the same thing. I also noticed that the "reversion" seems to happen even if I don't reboot. It just randomly decides it is time to start crashing until it needs an update. However, I can cause this to happen by rebooting my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] amoeller:
I had this exact same problem also with Google TTS and Chrome constantly asking for updates on rebooting the phone. I figured out what was happening. If you look in /data/app there are updated versions of any app you have installed. For whatever reason there were a bunch of duplicate numbered versions of Google TTS and Chrome with the ending of com.android.chrome-2, com.android.chrome-3, com.android.chrome-4, and so on. What I did to fix it was 1st uninstall the app or uninstall updates, wipe data on that app, delete all duplicate apps in /data/app, then reinstall from the Play Store. I haven’t had a problem since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azjaffo:
What gets me about this is that I've had them in the same location on my memory card for several previous versions with no problem. It has only recently become a problem. In any case, though, thank you for your advice. I have placed the ringtones & notification on the internal storage in their proper locations and it is working for now (and surviving reboots.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pkaczor:
That worked! Brilliant and good to know. I will keep an eye on those folders in the event that similar problems return. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackdubl:
Thanks for this! I was wondering why Google TTS was always updating. I had 17 of them in there. So clearly, something haywire about installing these as part of the rom. Because I never pre-installed Chrome and never had the problem with chrome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azjaffo:
Just reporting back...

Well, I just wanted to report back on what I've done and what it has fixed so far:

A couple of days ago, I did a clean install of the March 15 version of this ROM. This seems to have fixed a majority of my problems. I'm not getting the app crashes I was before, my "gallery" is behaving properly, my apps aren't deciding to constantly re-install, etc.

The only "issue" I had was Google Text To Speech engine would still re-update itself after having updated. I followed amoeller's advice, though, and that seems to have addressed that particular problem. There is one remaining issue I need to test to see if it works - the IR Blaster. If that isn't fixed, I can live with that - I don't feel like flashing a touchwiz rom and re-flashing this one again just to fix that problem when everything else works. I don't use it often enough (when it is working) to care. If someone knows a way to kick the IR blaster's butt in to working without having to re-install a ROM, though, I'm happy to try that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rulevoid:
Installing via SafeStrap resulted in an install that took 5 seconds, then rebooted and it didnt appear to install anything, it only factory reset. Where am I going wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] flamadiddle:
SafeStrap is for TouchWiz-based ROMs only. This isn't TW. Any SafeStrap compatible ROM will clearly state so in the OP. If it isn't mentioned, it won't work on SafeStrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rulevoid:
Thank you. Would you be able to point me in the right direction to get this installed via a non-safestrap route? I'm assuming people still use clockworkmod's stuff?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] flamadiddle:
If you're using SafeStrap, it's likely because you have a post-MDK bootloader. Every bootloader after MDK is permanently locked (no hack found yet), which means you won't be able to install this ROM at all. Any Verizon GS4 with a post-MDK bootloader is limited to SafeStrap compatible ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cambunch:
I'm using Anymote with the Googy kernel and have no issues with the IR blaster.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] happy2472:
This rom can not be used with safestrap correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azjaffo:
I'm using Zappir Pro with Googy Kernel as well. Since my clean wipe & install of 3/15 version, it seems to be fixed now - I just tested it this evening.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kenpachi 91:
That's correct. You need to be on the day 1 build (mdk), loki'd, and have the latest version of TWRP.

Verizon HD Voice

The rom says HD voice is enabled but if I log onto my Verizon account and go into features it says non of my devices support HD voice. I also dont see the HD simbol when making calls. Am I missing something here.. I tried the *#0011# but it doesn't Bring up any menu..

How do I get HD voice enabled with this rom.. Any help would be appreciated
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
I was excited when i saw that too and confused when it didnt chage anything. What i think it is is just support added, not the actual feature. Verizon has to enable that feature for the gs4 on there end, prob when the 5.1 comes out, for this to function and be enabled on are phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
What setting is it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
To make my last post clear, was referring to this post. I'm experiencing the same issue since flashing 3/15 and I cannot find the correct setting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Akomack:
Has anyone figured out how to disable lockscreen notifications for persistent notifications? Most other roms have this baked in, is this going to be included in the next release? is there an xposed module to do this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Sorry I had posted the wrong setting . Another alternative option is to reflash the rom with only wiping cache and dalvik cache. That should bring back the clear recents option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kenpachi 91:
Just want to say thanks to Danvdh for this rom and those who worked on it. I have now moved on to the Galaxy S6. Had to get Nova launcher prime and an icon pack.

Anybody using the aosp email and getting mad battery drain?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shoutcast:
I updated to the 03-15 version with a full wipe of everything about two weeks ago.. Everything worked great except navigation.. Very strange.. Maps works but when I put in for navigation it takes like 5-10 mins to get a lock.. Also after it gets a lock somethings it will lose its lock and take another 5-10 minutes to get its lock back.. Really really annoying.. So I flashed back to my older version I had backed up and my Navigation was working as it should again with no problems.. Well today I decided to to give 3-15 another chance.. thought maybe it was just a bad flash the first time.. But again my gps with navigation is broken.. I really don't want to go back to my older nan-droid backup.. Does anyone know of a way to fix this.. doesn't seem to happen on my older versions of this rom so i must believe it is a problem with the rom itself or maps. I don't believe i need to odin back to stock for the the issue disappears with older versions of this rom
