I was finally able to (partially) reproduce the heating issue. It seems that there is some app in system that will go crazy occasionally, and spawn Looper objects infinitely.

So, we get a memory leak and orphaned loopers (These are utilities that android uses to link the UI thread with spawned threads which are in turn used for things like IO heavy operations and for Networking)

I'm looking into exactly which app it is so that I can murder it with a vengence. The de-bloated build is coming along and now that I have a week off from work (hopefully the looper culprit lives in the bloat). I should be able to nuke a lot of bloat and get a build up shortly.

[ROM][STOCK][4.4.2][TMO Base][ODEX/DEODEX(CWM+ODIN)]KitKat 3-16-2014

So here is my question: [MENTION=522448]Fenny[/MENTION] what are the odds of upgrading to the latest bootloader (kit kat bootloader)? Or what are the disadvantages? Somewhere in the op i read about not recommended to update past MDLs?

Really not liking all the people with the new modem. Still haven't found a way to get it. Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
There's a while thread on it in the General section.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
No way to get access to a computer at all?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
If you read the thread, there are reports of mobile Odin working for flashing the new modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheArtiszan:
Think you still need to do it twice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Hmm, I saw some people flash 3x with no success in that thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
It could be hit or miss, I'm not sure. I personally flashed it with my PC.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
I did not have the overheating, but did have battery usage off a cliff a few times when it was not being used. Using Insane debloated v2 ROM and it has not happened again, so am guessing they might be related. Since I added back some apps, would be good to know which one to avoid - good luck on finding it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
You know why it's funny that people asked me for instructions?

Not a single person did step 5:

Just the one solitary thanks... :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
I did so on other posts (did not install from OP) and also donation. But yes - what about all those that did install from there..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Oh, don't mistake my meaning. I don't blame anyone for not doing it and honestly it's definitely not a required step. I would greatly prefer that people in my thread were doing what they were doing because they knew what it would do rather than follow directions step 1-12. Come to think of it, I've never done terribly well with 12 step programs myself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
version 1.0 has worked so good for me specially with the new bootloader/modem and everything that you helped me get working properly that I haven't even switched to 1.1 because of how awesome battery and performance I'm getting :good::good::good: I'll wait till you release the full debloated one to make the switch but will deff be sticking to your "Stock" roms
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] peppersu812:
No access to one at all. I got called in for work and on an emergency job out of town working night shift so my time is limited and I was one of the many that tried mobile odin. I had it work on 4.2.2 modem and had to do it twice to get it to stick. Done it 3 times on this one and nothing. Sucks but dunno what else to do from here.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] makomek:
Right now I'm running Wanam 4.4.2 rom with old bootloader(MDL) and MK2 Baseband. Is there a way I can just update to the new bootloader and NB4 baseband without installing the whole firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Yes, you can rename the tar.md5 file to .tar, extract all of the mbn files as well as the non-hlos and modem. Then just use GNU tar to re-tar them (they must be in the root of the tar). This CAN be done on the device using ADB if you don't have access to a GNU/Linux machine. The resulting tar can be flashed with odin.

SM-N900T, that is a note 3, right? Sounds like you might be in the wrong thread sir. Otherwise if you do mean you did this to an SGH-M919 then that is very strange. Did you wipe /data/?

My magic hat full of tricks came up empty when I went looking for a way to get the modem to update from recovery. I even tried using the patch files and sending the file patch asserts with applypatch... No go so far.

P.S. The Debloated build is built, signed and uploading. I am running it through testing now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] makomek:
Thanks for the quick reply but man that's complicated ,I thought there's something simple to Odin.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
I can build a tar for you, but you can do it yourself too. (I believe in the free sharing of information.) I'll PM you a link in a moment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] idtheftvictim:
I have a note 3, wife had a s4..thanks for reply. I am trying to avoid wiping data on my wife's phone. Think I will just take it in and use her available jump to get something else. Thanks for the help Fenny!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Good luck man, yeah that is a weird one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Okay, 1.2 is uploaded, and debloated.

I left in a few of the apps I actually like from Samsung and T-Mo (like SHealh and the usage notification) -- FYI you cannot log into your Samsung account with this application after the debloat. It FCs when you try, so just skip it. I will be making a modified version to remove the login screen from it so it will not nag you. :D)

You are running new the bootloaders, right? Want to get me a dmesg?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Perfect, just needed to make sure that androidboot.mode was only used when booting to the battery charging screen. That means the only two things that need to be changed are in the kernel. (Which I have done on my test kernel) and in init. (For this I will have to probably build one from aosp and create functions to handle all of the args that sammy's customizations pass to it manually.)

Hi Fenny..

I like having the BT Tethering and Carrier IQ removed, and more Knox remnants removed, but there is some bloatyness that I require. Should I just install all the apks from the link or would that be a mistake? I noticed that ../containers/framework/ ../etc/secure_storage/ and ../lib/ had Knox-related files, and ../priv-app/ had a CIQ file.. so perhaps these shouldn't be installed?

Do you happen to have a flashable zip that will throw back in everything that is "safe"?

Thanks, ME
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Just install the APK'S you need obiously don't install any carrier Iq or Knox related Files all the other apks are fine to flash

samsung accounts?

How do we get Samsung Accounts in v1.2? I use it for backing up and restoring things like SMemo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Sounds like people like Samsung accounts. I can add them back in in the next release... As soon as I get this freaking boot charging thing sorted... It's turning into a whole thing.

You can get them from here for now. The files you need are:

(from priv-app)

Samsungservice.apk

SamsungApps.apk

(from app)

SamsungContentsAgent.apk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] imanextreme:
Cool. Thanks.

1 more thing, I installed it but it doesn't give me sync options...as in it's installed but this is what I get.

I set it up also, but have not tried it at a store yet. Is the NFC icon showing up on the status bar? Also, after rebooting, I often have to use PIN number to reactivate it.

Is the boot charging a problem with only the bootloader ? i am on MDL bootloader, and when I switch to CM11 (secondary ROM) and shut down from there, if I plug it in, it reboots back to CM11.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
It has to do with the arguments that the bootloader pass to init, and to the kernel. The init binary (iniside boot.img) is the one that decides in what mode the system will boot into, and the kernel has some hooks to disable things we don't care about like the phone radio and such while it is charging.

This message changed from "androidboot.bootchg=true" in 4.3 and lower to "androidboot.mode=charger"

I have modified the kernel to accept both forms of the "I am on a charger and the phone is boot-charging" message. However the issue I am having is with not having samsung's customized init source. I am in the process of trying to shoe-horn one from the CM tree into it, and adding the couple of things that the Samsung kernel will do differently from the CM customized one.

Am I the only one having a problem that facebook keeps logging me out and I have to login again ????? Is happening pretty often now.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
I just tested it, it's not doing it to me... is it in another app that integrates with facebook? Or the facebook app itself?

P.S. I have got the kernel to stay at the charging screen, and in low power mode. There is no charging animation, and you will have to unplug it from power to get it to boot normally, but for those of you who need to turn the phone off for a quick charge up all you have to do is unplug it from the charger, then hold down the power button to get it to boot to the ROM. Anyone want to test? I need someone to test it who has both the new and the old bootloaders respectively. (For people who have flashed to the new bootloader everything *SHOULD* work normally, but we need to test this to be certain.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
I have the new bootloader illl help you test it and is the actual Facebook app and facebook messaging app that are doing this..... might be a problem with the apps themselves

Just tested on old (MDL) bootloader - did not boot up when plugged in. Do have to unplug to boot up.

Note - I am just testing this, as I almost always charge while booted up (it charges very fast on OEM charger). I had been using talexop 4.4. it is basically stock (except for thi fix of course) - wondering if I will be giving up anything - primarily battery life ? His OP had indicated it would not charge when off, so he might want to get a hold of what you modded - lol.

You need to unpack whatever file you downloaded (.rar,.tar,.zip) and you will find modem.bin which is 49.6 MB.

Then your only other option is to dowload the full rom, open it up and grab the modem.bin from there.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
I'll second this. I read about Flashify in passing and decided to try it last time I installed a new ROM. It was almost too easy. It allows you to install older versions of recoveries too, which as far as I know is still necessary for twrp because the newer versions still can't restore backups on our phones.

So I finally found the time to flash the rom today. Thanks Fenny :)

I noticed that KLMS Agent 1.9.022 and com.sec.knox.eventsmanager 1.0 are still there, which are remnants of Knox aren't they? Is it safe to remove them with Titanum Backup or are other applications reliant on them?
