I include my notifications and ringtones into the rom before i flash it. How do you do it ?

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Drdev is online again

I just flashed the KT Kernel on the last build. Have here also many fc after reboot. Will restore nandroid and stay with stock kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] PapaMag:
Well you are far ahead of me on that one. I use a coverting tool and change them to a ogg. From there I use Rom Toolbox to move or copy them to the ringtone file folder. Unless I brick which I did recently they always show up no matter what.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] störte:
I just learn that after having problems with ringtones and notification on other roms. I like it beside iit is very simple. Use winzip to open the rom but dont extract. then you see the folder and in system is the media with the ringtone folder. Now you just drag and drop your ringing tones there and then you close it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] PapaMag:
I use a app called Media Converter, export from Dropbox then with Media Converter I can create and move to ringtones. I have done what you stated and got ringtones from other roms and moved them as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mikmak1970:
ringtones from sd card

that seems like a good option .i will try that .

thank you very much for the possible solutions (everyone).

Liquid and KT

This is one of the reasons why I will stay where I'm at and use KT. Yes I know a lot of dev's don't hold much thought to benchmarks but I do based on the performance of my device. I have never scored this high before.

Anyone able to get Photos to work? I get a FC every time I try to launch it. Gallery is working fine, but for some reason Photos has recently allowed me to view tons of my old pics that aren't stored on my phone. Maybe it was syncing with Picasa (I don't have any Picasa apps installed and haven't for the last year). I dunno why that was happening but it was kind of cool to have that.

Oh ok. Prerty sure it was there after I dirty flashed. Saw it missing only after clean flashing to test the Recents lag.

Speaking of Recents, it didn't occur to me how laggy it was until I borrowed wifes SlimKat S4 with lag-less Recents. Doesn't matter which Recents style, and animation scale set the same way on both phones.

Can anyone supply me the steps on how to implement the ktweaker xml into pokes kernel?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bobbarker2:
You can't. Ktweaker xml's are for KT kernel, not Pokerenel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] LuigiBull23:
They work for both. The Ktweaker app is compatible with both KT and Pokernrl. The difference is Poke's does not support the Ktoonservativeq governor and as a result will display an "unsupported kernel, file not found" text under your selected governor in Ktweaker. Any XML based on anything but Ktoonservativeq will work just fine.

OTA vs. Manual Flash?

Is taking an update to the ROM via OTA considered to be a clean flash or a dirty one, or somewhere in-between? I just OTA'd from 3/13 to 5/3 build, and it's just so easy...that it seems like there might be a catch. ;) I just have a couple little issues that I'm not sure if going to the trouble of a clean flash (as I normally ALWAYS do) would fix.

Thanks for any insight!

Nooby here

Hi I finally decided to flash my Samsung S4 (SGH-I337M) and went with Liquid Smooth, and I want to say it feels great. I just have a small problem, I've been having at least three times since I installed it around an hour ago, an app failure which says it is the system, I can't recall the exact error message, but if it happens again I'll put it here.

Also, this is isn't the first time I flash, but I'm still pretty noob, why should I flash the kernel, in this case the PoKernel that appears in the Liquid Smooth thread. And can I just flash it or I need to wipe something? Thanks in advance guys! :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kosidroid:
pokernel should be included in this rom's already, can check in settings - about - kernel-version.

and problems with systemui are well known, i think and the team is working on it to so it'll be fixed in a next release i guess.

Well I wiped, flashed 5-13 and had system ui fcs, flashed KT kernel and was non existent, I wanna use Poke. Been a while since I've been on this bad beast. Great work fellas, as always. [emoji126]

Edit:

So i wiped and flashed again..(4-26 mini modular PA gapps) Gonna let apps restore all the way from play then see what happens.. Still fcs but they seem to occur while apps are auto installing from Play.. I'll be back a lil later and say whether the system ui quits crashing after apps are all in.. Oh and tks Poke and rest of team and all who help. Great rom!! [emoji72]

Edit:

**After all my apps from play restored all the system ui fcs quit.. I probably had 15-20 ui fcs.. Weird but I'm happy they quit.. Had to be something to do with apps being installed?? Anyway I'm out. Tks.

Hi, i have a weird lagg with the screen /off while talking on the phone.

Whenever im in a call, when i take the phone off my ear the screen wont turn on, i have to press the home button so it turns on (but it turns on on my home screen, so i have to pull notification bar down and press on my call... but even sometimes the moment im back on the ongoing call screen the phone turns black again).

Also sometimes when someone hangs up, the screen wont turn back on neither.

I clean flashed and also i had this lagg for a while.

Someone has an idea of what i can try? thanks

Sounds like your proximity sensor may be a bit dirty. Have you tried compressed air into the earpiece?

Using a root explorer, navigate to and check your current Prox sensor value at

On 3.1 5/17 build 5/10 kernal. Having problems with the messaging app. It keeps pushing a notification that a message was not sent. And yet it was. I get it every time I send a text and every time I open up the app. Its happened before. I cleared the data from the app. Froze it. Uninstalled and re installed. Restored a previous backup of it. Everything so before I just reflashed cause it bugged me that bad. And its back. I'm just using the textra spp. Which isn't really great but its better than dealing with that annoying notification. Any way to get rid of it?

Just get Elixir 2 from Play Store. Open Sensors, hit the play button then wave your hand over the sensor by the earpiece. The app is overkill for this but it will help you troubleshoot.

Is there an app or xposed module that keeps the phone on during calls???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] lost_:
You mean keep the screen on, no timeout? Tons of options.

- App Setting xposed module (but I personally find it not reliable).

- Llama, E-Robot, Tasker, AutomateIt and the like. Use it to set screen timeout to really long or never times out during call state, and set it back to your regular timeout after the call. Many other things you can do with automation apps like these.

- Smart App Lock (and get an app lock at the same time). It has option to keep screen on for user-specified apps, even those not protected by lock.

I'm sure there are others. I know the last two options work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] saul1991:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] oildale:
So I'm getting more and more tempted to try converting my phone/ROM to F2FS. Pretty much all the info I can find is outdated as in the steps they say to do in TWRP aren't possible as the options no longer are there. So I'm wondering if anyone has up to date info on the conversion? ROM Manager seems to prep the ROM zip for F2FS, but is that all that needs to be done before flashing it (as in the formatting to F2FS happens during the flashing procedure) or do I have to format /system /data and /cache beforehand?

@Devs: Write Access to SD advice, please?

Greetings!

I'm hoping you devs can shed some light on this.

I'm not 100% sure, but pretty close, that beginning with either the 4.4.x builds or the 4.4.4 builds, Titanium backup is no longer able to protect backups. That dev has posted a proposed "fix" which consists of adding the group media_rw to the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in platform.xml—the same thing as the various "KitKat SD Fix" type apps do. Well, as you know, your ROM already contains this permission group, and yet, Titanium still can't protect backups.

In doing research on this, I discovered one user was able to circumvent this by having his backup folder set to /storage/ExtSDCard/TitaniumBackup (or something similar), and then letting TiBu detect the backup folder. In doing so, TiBu revealed another path to the folder he was using, accessed via /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1/TitaniumBackup. I tried this myself, and TiBu did not reveal that path for me. So I tried navigating to it, and found that TiBu says my /mnt folder is read-only, and my /mnt/media_rw folder, whose permissions are rwx------, "cannot be accessed". I tried some stuff using Root Explorer, and discovered that mounting /mnt as r/w long enough to change /mnt/media_rw permissions to rwxrwx---, and then mounting /mnt as r/o, does the trick—TiBu is able to access the folders under /mnt/media_rw, including sdcard1, and use a folder created under /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1 for backups, AS WELL AS being able to protect backups in that folder. The caveat being that after a reboot, everything is set back to default, meaning TiBu will no longer be able to access the folder.

I figured it would be easy enough to run a shell script or commands at boot to change the permissions on /mnt/media_rw to rwxrwx---. BUT, before that can happen /mnt has to be mounted as r/w, and I'm a little less confident about trying to correctly mount a volume via a shell command.

1. Is it possible and safe to do this (mount r/w; change perms; mount r/o) via boot script/commands? I plan to use Tasker and Secure Settings to accomplish this, but I'm open to other suggestions.

2. Is it safe to keep rwxrwx--- perms on /mnt/media_rw?

3. Is it SO safe, that it's possible (and you'd be willing) to actually build the ROM with those perms on /mnt/media_rw?

I've also tried installing TiBu as a system app, with the understanding that system apps are allowed to set the r/o attribute (essentially what "protecting" a backup does) on SD card files outside of their own designated folders, but that didn't even work. Does that mean that including TiBu in the ROM as a system app (were that appropriate to do) wouldn't work either?

I definitely don't mind the boot script/commands route, as long as I have the correct syntax and parameters for the mount command. But if #3 is doable, that'd be great too!

Thanks in advance for any input, and, once again, for this great ROM! I'm conservative about how often I update it (still on the 7/29 build), but I'm all in. :good:

Have a great weekend!
