So I'm curious as I've never had issues flashing end everything works perfectly and runs smooth except for lol.. The sdcard

I'm guessing.. After playing around on a fresh wiped install I finally got TB to recognize my sd and restored some stuff. But I can open any pictures videos in the stock gallery.. just a bunch of gray boxes. It shows all the folders with the names but loads nothing.. I can't even take screen shots fails to save. Can't download or save anything from the net , fails to download. . Could the mf9 bootloader be doing this.. any suggestions. . I even tried flashing the sd fix again. Then flashed twrp just to try n fix permission still nothing.. I've reformatted the sd also still nodda.. ??????
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
You may have to go back to stock completely and start with a new slate including rerooting as Sac mentioned in the Op. It sucks I know but it's proven to work.

For those having issues flashing the ROM and are seeing where it's mentioned going back to completely stock... This is a last resort move. If you have done ALL the steps (minus 1-3 if you're already rooted) in the 2nd OP and you're using the correct recovery (CWM 6.0.4.4) and have tried multiple times to flash the ROM without success THEN and ONLY then should you use this method.

Sac23 has a write up that he will be posting with steps on how to do this last resort method. Read it carefully before you attempt it so you know what you need and make sure you don't mess your phone up.

Yes and no... You'll have to choose a different battery icon in 3minit. It's the only thing that works in 3minit right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kreizyidiot:
Thanks.

How come this rom doesn't allow you to choose which things to add/not to add like the 4.6?

it just installs... :)

i guess i was using philz touch rec for the older roms...not sure if it has anything to do with it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
Sac isn't using Aroma launcher right now. Hopefully when more mods are available and stuff like that then he will. I liked the options. I wonder if it's not availabr for 4.4.2 yet though...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kreizyidiot:
So back when I had philz-recovery instead of using the cwm recovery, i was able to clear my internal data, pretty much format all of my data in the phone's memory...

i did everything on the second post....but all of my data are still there.... is there a way to format this data from the cwm recovery?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
Yes. You have to go into the option that says mounts and storage and make sure you format the one that says sdcard/data or something like that. Similar to Philz. Sdcard1 is your external.

Sorry, don't remember all the titles of each selection. It's gonna be similar to Philz though cause Philz is based on CWM. Titles should be the same.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
Yup you're exactly right Ghost. It's in mounts and storage under sdcard. SDCARD1 is your external sd card.

Is anyone else getting low memory warnings? I've moved everything to my storage card and even removed some things I don't use and still have about 556 mb free on my internal storage. What the?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] frenchel:
Well can u tell us if your call record is working with no problems as well

---------- Post added at 04:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:00 AM ----------

I have went back and forth between my sacs 5.5 backup and 4.4.2 backup all done with 6.0.4.4 multiple times. Your saying your 6.0.4.4 wont backup your 4.4.2 and restore it? I must be lucky...I didnt do anything special.

How is your call record does that work as well as everything else
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kreizyidiot:
So I did everything like you said and it worked out fine. But I encountered an issue...

I normally use ES File Explorer to browse my files... However, I noticed that the root folder on my phone's memory listed as "emulated/legacy"...normally it's something like "emulated/0"

I noticed also that under the emulated folder, there are like 2 of the same folders...one "0" and one "legacy"

Because of it, I cannot use Titanium back up or restore my sms since it cannot find the folders....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dcillusions77:
You can change what directory on your phone tibu restores from. Just find where the backups are and change it. You should be able to do a search for your titanium backup folder, and they should be in it. Hope that helps ya out. Unless the backups were on your internal SD card when you wiped to install

Im not sure what is wrong, with your 4.3 rom and the NAE modem everything works perfectly. Followed your directions exactly and here in San Antonio they only support the 1900 mhz radio. I end up with no signal on your rom. Negalites rom which also requires the NAE modem works and even your 4.3 as i said works. Is it maybe something not turned on in build prop? I get this same problem if i use roam control and force roaming in 4.3 i end up with the no signal till i tell it not to roam. Never had any problems with any of your roms till now. :( and ive been flashing roms since android 2.3.

Thanks in advance.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasondilly:
All Good

Just wanted to drop in and say thanks to all of you guys, especially Sacs, Ghostac, Rlmiller, and several of you others (forgive me if I didn't mention you by name, but you know who you are). Lord knows you guys are so much more patient that I am, by taking your precious time to help others out. I followed the OP instructions to the T, and have experienced no issues so far, outside of the screen lock options being grayed out.

I'm certainly no developer, nor do I know many of the technical terms that some of you use. I've been rooting and installing custom Roms since my first Android device (HTC Hero), and never once have I experienced any major issues. How could this be? I simply follow directions with no deviations. It's no real surprise that when you deviate, you are likely going to experience issues, only then to have to hope that someone will be kind enough to help you out.

I was previously on Sacs 4.3 v5.6, running the MK2 modem. I was already rooted, so I simply skipped steps 1-3, and began by flashing the NAE modem using ODIN. (Note: I first attempted to flash the modem using Mobile ODIN, but from what I understand, mobile is not a good option to use for flashing modems) After the phone rebooted, I verified that NAE had stuck, which it did. I was already using CWM Recovery version 6.0.4.4, so I simply skipped step 7. I wiped dalvik and cache twice, then did a factory reset. I then selected the option to reboot recovery, then flashed the ROM. The yellow splash screen was on for maybe 5 minutes (be patient and don't freak out), then it booted right up and everything was buttery smooth.

I just did the install last night, so I'll report back should I begin experiencing any new issues that have not already been mentioned. Oddly enough, the forum wouldn't be 84+ pages if people would actually take the time to read through some of the posts. If it's a known issue, there is really no need for many others to report the same...at least I wouldn't think.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JesseAaronSafir:
I haven't jumped on this ROM yet. I'm very troubled by gharrington's announcement that 3Minit development is stopped because people have been stealing his work and taking credit for it. I was thinking he'd drop 3Minit for 4.4.2 anyday now. Maybe he and Sac23 have things worked out in a way that we could still get a 4.4.2-compatible 3Minit Framework that Sac23 can build into this ROM? Sac? For me the 3Minit stuff is pretty much essential and I'm reluctant to go without it. Wanam doesn't do everything I need. Also, I'm kinda waiting for Cerj to do some themeing for this. I might also wait until Sac23 releases a build with an Aroma Installer for 4.4.2 and some of the options we've all grown to love on the 4.2.2 and 4.3 ROMs. I do love the Sense Recents and "RealIcons". I also want the "full-screen in-call" thing. Actually, I wish the multitaking/recents could be even more like WebOS or iOS7 or WP8. Having the thumbnails tilted a-la Sense isn't as pleasing to me as would be just a minimized thumbnail like these other systems. Has anybody seen a MOD that could make the recents/multitasking look more like those? I have "WebCM9" on my HP TouchPad, which gives CM9 a similar multitasking to WebOS and then even the stock multitasking on my ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10 is somewhat WebOS-like.

I tried Fancy Switcher:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jkab.fancyswitcher

It's similar to Sense Recents and if you buy the $1.99 "Gold" upgrade, I think it can replace the default task switcher. But it doesn't seem to be good at building the thumbnails like the regular "Recents" menu does. Also, it has two options, the angled "Sense Recents" style and a "Coverflow" style but not the flat style I'd prefer (a-la WebOS, iOS7, WP8).

Also, I'd like to hear that people are getting better battery life on 4.4.2 than they were on 4.3. So far from what I've read, it sounds about the same. Sac's 4.2.2 ROM pretty consistently gives me about 22-24 hours runtime, which I think is awesome! I never had that kind of longevity on the 4.3 ROM.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
Hey Ghost I shot you a PM about rwilco's site in the Op. Sac said he would look into the call recording issue as well as other issues we have been having. However, in my opinion, the working stuff far exceeds what's not working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GhostTac:
Okay guys, I talked a little with sac last night about the backup and my apologies for not posting after we got done. Got busy at work and I don't try things when I'm working. Gotta have my phone if my radio goes out.

Supposedly we should be able to select what we want when making a backup, however I just checked a few things and it doesn't seem to let us . It just writes the back up when you select the place to save it too.

The 3 things we would need to select are:

Boot

System

Data

I just made a back up and when it ran it looks like those 3 things are what are backed up, but at the end of the sequence it says 'no applications backed up to external storage' or something like that. I don't know a bunch about recoveries but I think that's where the problem is since apps are FC'ing when trying to restore a backup.

Unfortunately, I'm not gonna test the theory as we are all making backups the same way and all are having the FC issues and I for one don't want to set my phone all the way back up. Maybe [MENTION=2899810]rlmiller[/MENTION] will be able to find something further.
