See this post below from [MENTION=863241]travisw0204[/MENTION], he explains how to replace two sound files from the "loud mod" from Sac's 5.6. When I tried the fix it also allowed my call recording to work correctly on this 4.4.2

I opened the etc folder and the snd_soc_msm and grabbed the 2 files there. I extracted the 2 files to my phone. I then moved them to the exact same place in /etc/snd_soc_msm and replaced the exact files that were there. I rebooted and did a test. Wow what a difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Nyckrs:
I tried that already. Wiped the app clean, flashed twrp and fixed permission, load up instagram, than 5seconds later i get a fc still.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] minato008:
Ok so I tried that, and no mobile data still.

I'll just run negalite (amazing rom btw) until V3 comes out, maybe it treats me nicer lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] doctafras:
no lockscreen settings

need help. i installed the rom, everything works but i have no lockscreen options but pin and password but when i try to set one up it doesnt stick. any suggestions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JesseAaronSafir:
Known issue with Kit Kat custom ROMs. Apparently if you go to stock unrooted and take OTA upgrades to NAE and then root, you'll be able to flash this ROM and have the lockscreen security work but you'll have tripped the Knox bootloader.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
I believe that you have to have took the ota update then root to get those to stick. It has been discussed earlier in the thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] doctafras:
i never took the ota. i used a thread on another post to just update modem to nae while rooted. i used this thread to update to nae [HOW TO]Update S4 to Stock 4.4.2 NAE w/Root while Keeping MF9 Bootloader [ 1 2 3 ... Last ] then did the flash to Sac's
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Well that's a trade off right now. If you want to have full capabilities you need to be on full nae prior to flashing sacs. But since you used that thread it seems you are on MF9 boot loader and don't want Knox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] doctafras:
ok cool. thanks for the info. guess i have to wait for a fix

So apparently Wanam and GravityBox don't work with ART? I hope at least 3Minit will. Would it be an option in Aroma to pick which runtime you want to use?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
It's an option inside the settings of the phone. Or atleast it was or was going to be on the 4.3 ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] epedrosa:
Wanam and GravityBox are Xposed modules and Xposed is not compatible with ART runtime.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kevinsturf:
Great thing we can easily switch between them #hoping
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
Yet*

Be aware the creator of xposed has posted on xda that he has a working framework for 4.4, and he will eventually get it to work with ART - no ETA. You may also want to be aware that he stated SELinux is a bigger hurdle than ART. Take that as you will.

On many 4.4 AOSP ROMs, at least most of the ones I have used on my tablet, let you switch between ART or Dalvik.

I'm hoping, if ART if enabled, even by default in sac's kitkat v3, that the people who wish to switch to dalvik can. I plan on running whatever is stock sac's most likely.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pixelsblur:
I thought art was still experimental?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Son Rise:
Yes. Me. Also On Calls. Every time I click on the call icon. The whole phone freezes. No wifi. The roms running slow. Many other issues. I think ima hold off on this rom. Until the next version drops When everything is stable and smooth... I mean he did a good job on the rom. But just not friendly with me:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cerj:
Reverepats posted about a wifi fix on this op or KTs kernel OP...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] SuezieQueue:
wifi is totally dead... what can I do to restore? 4g works well and is on NAE.... flashed cwm and nae before ROM, after failure tried to rewipe and reflash a few times to no success.

How can I get my wifi back?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
Okay... Do people NOT read through the thread? Wifi is a known issue right now. It's mentioned on almost every single page. (sorry for the shortness but it's every other post almost that mentions it and the thread is only 17 pages long)

Also, [MENTION=2744265]sac23[/MENTION] even stated he would post a write up TOMORROW of exactly how to install this ROM so everything runs perfectly. He's even stated in the OP it's running flawless but requires very specific instructions. This is why I personally waited. If the man himself says it needs a step by step how to flash then I wait. Lol. Last thing I want is to bork my phone because I was impatient.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
After an extensive run with this Rom I've decided to go back to 5.6. There were a couple things that were cool but the cool factor doesn't outweigh the working overall factor. As soon as I posted that the gallery was ok it started FCing like crazy and also TouchWiz as well. I also had a problem syncing my bluetooth contact list in my car. I'll just check back tomorrow for Sacs how to list. What he has done so far is awesome but once we get step by step instructions I'm sure it'll be awesome.

---------- Post added at 06:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------

Some of us wanted to take the plunge and try it out. We knew what we were in store for flashing this but it was worth a shot just to see what Sac has been up to. It was worth it for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
I didn't mean to sound like an a$$ when I wrote it, but I am an a$$hole. Lol. I'm just saying, it was stated that it requires specific instructions to install the ROM is all. Some people read over stuff like that or ignore it. I'm just reinforcing it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
Hahahaaha it's all good dude. I didn't take offense to it because you are right. I am a flashaholic and knew the risks when I flashed it. I had all intentions of checking back in tomorrow for the step by step instructions. I just wanted a sneak peek. LoL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Son Rise:
Well I'm hungry now. I'm feining to flash. I need it I need it. I'm shacking:(. I'm a flashholic:( just like crack! I need the rom. Lol lol:p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
I'm a flashholic also... But a lot of the issues people are having could be due to improper install procedures.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shanda5303:
Hotspot

So it looks like from what I've read the hotspot is working for some people and some people is isn't and the general fix is wiping and reflashing? :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dom2570:
This ROM doesn’t like xposed very much, causes loots of reboots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rtwrobert10:
Reading pretty much every page of comments here, looks like a lot of people are getting reboots regardless
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Son Rise:
Will be able to go back to 4.3? Sacs other rom. Before this one? Or do we have to change the modems?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Son Rise:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JhoonB51:
"NAE MODEM" is used with 4.4 and can be used with Sac's 4.3 as well.

How's the battery life on this version, guys? Battery is my main pet peeve...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] stealthee:
Lockscreen

I know people say how to fix the lock screen is to flash the stock rom then over wright say sac's rom. But has anyone not just looked a the two from say a twrp backup view saw what was different and just made a .zip file to place what is missing so this works for us?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kxhaz:
There was another developer trying to figure this out because even flashing the stock update and not taking the OTA update was causing the same issues, I think it came down to something with the Trust Center which I believe is updated with the Bootloader. They were trying to update the trust center without changing the bootloader and were having issues where they could not get with certain set-ups and it actually would not boot on other set-ups, but I think there were some successes, however the last I say was it was too hit and miss and the wrong set-up could really mess up the phone. So the bottom line is, it is not a fix that can currently be made in the ROM to fix this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JoeFCaputo113:
Amazing. Since I flashed this ROM averaging 25hrs of use with 3hrs on screen time.

Battery life has been great for me as well. After charging in the evening, it easily lasts from 6am to 10pm, with a bit to spare. And I'd say that is with about 3-4 hours of screen time.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JesseAaronSafir:
I'd say that battery life on Sac's 4.4.2 ROM is BETTER than his 4.3 ROM but not as good as his 4.2.2 ROM. I get between 16 to 21 hours runtime on a full stock battery. My experience has been about the same on the stock kernel vs. KT kernel. I never both plugging in my phone because I have the official Samsung external charger and I just keep a spare battery in my pocket all the time. Whenever my battery drops below 20-30%, I swap out for a fresh one and put the drained one in the charger. That being said, I'd still like the best battery life possible.

Guys, thanks for the battery life follow up.

I haven't flashed a new version of Sacs' rom in a long long time. Currently on the old 5.5 and wanting to try KitKat.... I must say, I guess it's for lack of practice, but I'm really confused by the OP. Can someone help me water it down even further for us dumber folks?

1. I have to flash the new TWRP. I have to use ODIN for this, yes? If so, does someone have the link with instructions for using ODIN?

2. I have to flash the new modem separately? If so... how?

3. AFter those two, I can flash the ROM as we normally always did, yes?

Feeling like a total noob.

Thanks dudes.

Because you can't write to SD card probably, I know with negalites kernel you don't have that problem but idk if its totally compatible with sacs ROM. Try ktoonzes kernel.

All you have to do is flash the zip in whatever recovery you currently have and then reboot the recovery.

After you have done all the above. You can now flash the ROM!

I Downloaded BuildProp Editor from the Play store Gave it super user access and scrolled WAY DOWN to the bottom to ro.securestorage.support and changed from true to false. Reboot DONE !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Deslo33:
Using a File manager or Root File Browser, etc. Go to Framework and find build.prop then edit the line

ro.securestorage.support=true

Edit to say:

ro.securestorage.support=False

Profit! You may have to reboot.

i never had this problem before when i flashed 4.4 v2. i decided to try the new negalte rom, and when i wanted to come back to sacs i started to get this message. i went from sacs 5.6 to 4.4 v2 with no problem. i cant save nothing to my internal storage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rheller219:
Flash the latest KT kernal and your issues will most likely go away concerning the sd card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] alfay13:
Yeah man. Use your favorite file explorer (I just use the Root Browser in ROM Toolbox for convenience) and navigate to /system/build.prop. I always change the name to buildprop.BAK just case anything fouls up. Then copy the entire text, create a new file and paste the same text but replace

ro.securestorage.support=true TO ro.securestorage.support=false

And save it as build.prop

Reboot and everything should work.

Alternatively, just edit the build.prop with the changes and save it. I just like having originals for insurance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dragonOL2:
It should! That's what worked for me!

I don't understand why on this rom, swiftkey keyboard can't find and or download the language packs. ..I've used swiftkey for years, I won't use any android phone with any keyboard unless it's swiftkey. But when I flash this, no matter what I do, you can't download any language pack when setting it up. I know it's about a 3rd party app, but it has to be rom related. Because every other rom I've ever used doesn't do this. been running hellkat for a while, no problems. No tw or aosp rom, any Android version, no problems. I back up the app and data, flash sacs kk, and it just doesn't work. Even when I restore from my backup. Or when Un installing and re installing fresh. It renders it completely useless without an active dictionary. Which sucks. Because I'm definitely not using stock keyboard lol. Anyone have any idea?

Guessing you used TWRP correct? While testing the newest update, I restored a fresh backup and the data became corrupt. Only way to fix it was to Odin the stock rom. Trust me, wiping internal storage, or whatever I did didn't fix the corrupt data. It was a super pain. Tried to work it out for 2 days, so I went back to 4.3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ParkerParker:
That sucks man! Thanks for testing, my days of messing with twrp are done for the time being, had the same thing happen to me when I first got my s4(corrupted partitions using twrp) , cerg warned me but I didn't listen lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
It wasn't the data that was corrupted with my backup with TWRP. However, using the stock kernel, it made my internal sd card unusable. I could always flash KT kernel to fix the internal sd card feature thus making TWRP a reliable recovery. It was CWM that corrupted my data with a backup. I now have to keep a copy of the Rom itself, as opposed to a backup, on my sd card at all times.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] TheKenRob:
Worked like a charm. don't know why I didn't think to do that I am a firm believer in KT Sac was just running so smooth!

I keep a copy of our firmware on my pc, when data for me gets corrupted, flashing a rom won't fix it (sometimes, 2 in particular) , my only fix has been to Odin back to stock :eek::eek: which always isn't what any of us want to do lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] izzyserious:
I did use twpr. But are you saying it stayed that way? making you have to Odin back to stock? Because mine doesnt. I can flash straight back to hellkat aosp 4.4, and it works perfect, as it always has. Wipe everything and flashing sacs kk rom the correct way, and everything will work perfectly. Except it won't let download language packs for swiftkey. Even if I TiBu restore the app+data from 5 minutes prior. Back to ANY other rom, work's immediately. Idk...

"EFS*stands for*Encrypting File System, which is really important part of networking and communication for Android Smartphones, It also contains your device IMEI data. When installing the Custom ROMs, it is always recommended to backup EFS Data, because these are the places, where you might loose this data and when you lose it, it means you may no longer be able to use your smartphone for communication, ultimately which becomes just a multimedia toy!!"
