From my previous post
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Maribou:
It's possible that is what caused the problem. I would suggest re-flashing the Rom, and flashing the modules right after ( before you reboot). That is really your only option. Trial and error my friend . :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] raulz28:
What I plan on doing but just been busy so maybe tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rodin95:
[MENTION=4980764]Maribou[/MENTION] - I haven't tried that, but will see what I can do with it. Thanks for the tip!

[MENTION=2284570]ted77usa[/MENTION] - I flashed the following immediately after flashing the ROM and SuperSU ZIP file:

ap_mld_safestrap.tar.md5

bl_mld_safestrap.tar.md5

cp_mld_safestrap.tar.md5

It is of course possible I missed a step, but I've done it a few different times re-reading every step to make sure I didn't over look anything. I know this is still early in development based on my reading, with a lot of the stuff coming yesterday.

Going to give it one more try, otherwise will flash back to MK2 and await other confirmation.

[EDIT] I just noticed what you were saying, I didn't see the mldmodules.zip in the root directory of the tool file -- Going to flash that, and will report back [/EDIT]

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

That was it - stepped the flashing of the actual modules step.. I thought it meant to flash the MLD Odin Files, so I missed copying the zip file to my SD card.. Thanks for your help!

So which GoldenEye version do we use? 24?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] :
Yes, if you want a 4.4.2 rom use GoldenEye 24.

If you are on 4.3MK2 use golden eye SS edition.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tuffluck:
Okay, so I've done all my reading and I think these are the very clear instructions to get GE working. I am coming from MK2 only. Can anyone confirm I have this all correct?

1. Download GE ROM, replace updater script (instructions below)

2. Download Magic files

3. Place ROM zip with new script, MLDmodules from Magic, and SuperSU zip (linked earlier) on extsdcard

4. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled on phone with Safestrap recovery installed

5. Reboot into SS

6. Wipe all data

7. Flash ROM, MLDmodule, and then SuperSU zips (in that order)

8. Tap Home on SS when done, enter Reboot menu and select Download

9. Open Odin on PC, add MLD tar Files (from Magic file) in their respective AP, BL, CP paths, Click Start and let run

10. Phone should reboot and GE ROM should be up and running fine

Is that all correct? Maybe that will be helpful to others. Also, to get the updater file set in the new ROM, I found these instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51105125
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tuffluck:
Oh crap, guys. I think I screwed up. This was my first time with Safestrap and I went into it and selected Wipe and I selected all but the Micro SD. However when I go into extsdcard after the wipe it shows it as empty, i.e. the zip files of my ROM, mldmodules, and SuperSU are not listed and nothing else is either for that matter. Did I accidentally wipe my SD card? It shows folders from the Android system, which makes me think the only thing it wiped was my SD card (I selected all BUT Micro SD).

Can I turn my phone off, pull the SD card and put it in my PC (I have one of those SD to USB thingies), and then add the files back to the card and put in my phone and try again? Will my phone turn on and go to Safestrap or am I screwed by turning the phone off to remove the SD card? Sorry I'm an idiot, I hope I didn't just kill my phone.

EDIT: I'm super confused. All the files appeared intact on the actual Phone's memory, so I just rebooted. Now it's stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen, so I guess it did in fact delete that. But nothing was on the Micro SD card either (i.e. it wasn't reading it). Now I'm staring at a Samsung Galaxy S4 screen because it doesn't know what to do.

Can I Odin my phone back to life via download mode? Please help.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] numbR7:
First off--never thought us MK2 vassals wouldn't be able to run a 4.4.2 of any kind this soon--much less have choices! This is my awkward way of expressing a hearty THANK YOU! This is really something special at this juncture! I'm running out of adjectives--you guys have been sharing great stuff at a dizzying pace! Too bad you only get 8 clicks a day!

I'm on MK2 with SS--never updated to NB1

One quick thing, once you flash a 4.4.2 ROM then Odin the three MLD files--If you're staying with 4.4.2 (different ROM or modding) you just have to keep switching between

ap_mld_safestrap.tar.md5 and ap_mld2mk2.tar.md5? (ap_mld2mk2.tar.md5 to flash--ROM or mod--then Odin back to ap_mld_safestrap.tar.md5 to run)? In other words ap_mld2mk2.tar.md5 gives you use of SS? If staying with 4.4.2 then I need only worry about the two "ap" files after the first run through?

Also, is it a good idea to always flash UPDATE-SuperSU-V1.93.zip immediately adter each new 4.4.2 install? Will it hurt anything?

This is really great--only problem is I have to get off the couch to do it. LOL:eek:

Thanks again....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] NighthawkXL:
Most likely it wouldn't cause any issues, but on the off chance it does you can easily Odin back to stock MK2 and try again. That's the beauty of having access to those files. :)

I'm backing up my Hyperdrive setup and am about to give Blackbox a try, just waiting for my phone to finish charging. Excited to finally be moving to Kitkat, it's been a long time coming ever since it was announced those few short months ago.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] raulz28:
So to get my wifi working I had to odin back to MK2 and flash the MLD modules right after flashing the ROM. First time I had flashed the ROM but forgot to flash the modules o I rebooted and flashed them but didn't help. Then I tried again by reflashing the ROM and flashing the Modules right after but that still didn't make my wifi work. So had to start all over and flash the MLD modules immediately after flashing the ROM for the first time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DeadlySin9:
Any ROM that formats the system partition will remove Safestrap. If it has an AROMA installer, you should choose not to, as you can wipe through Safestrap and it won't remove itself. Otherwise, you'll just have to make sure the ROM has root and reinstall it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] andrewdroid:
Anyone try GoldenEye 25? Would you just follow the same steps with the updater-script and the SuperSU?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dhs92:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tuffluck:

I tried to flash the add on for volume on the GE24. It said it flashed successfully, but then when I tried to reboot it said no OS installed. I swear all I did was try to flash that one file, and I know I clicked the right file at that. Does anyone know what may have happened? Right now I'm just sitting in Safestrap waiting to hear a solution as I don't want to turn it off and then have to Odin back to MK2 and start this whole process over again. Also when I now go into Download from the Reboot menu, it just says no OS installed, are you sure you want to reboot? And it does not recognize the device in Odin, so I don't even know how to go back and start over installing GE.

I can confirm my above problem was just a glitch just as was mentioned in the OP (even though it's not either of these modules). The GE volume mod did do this as well however.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] numbR7:
So, I'm a little confused. If I go through the process and flash a 4.4.2 ROM I can go back and forth with Odin (MLD ap & MK2 ap) file to get access to SS then run the ROM. Now, so if I have the other two MLD files Odin'ed and Odin the MK2 ap I can backup a 4.4.2.? To restore I can and/or should be in full "MK2 mode" the I can restore then Odin back to MLD? WIill the module need to be reflashed in SS TWRP or it will be restored as part of the restore process (my guess). So, and please help me if I'm off-- A) I can SS backup a 4.4.2 rooted ROM B) I can restore that backup (replacing the install step) then flash module and/or SuperSU then Odin the MLD files and I'll boot up fine?

Also, can I do this with just the MK2 ap Odined and the other two MLD Odin'ed?

Heck I hope I wrote this down right? It just takes me awhile to set up a ROM and woulld love to be able to backup and restore without messing up!!! Thanks for any help--if my question makes sense!:eek:

Quick question:

I am on MK2 and used the MK2 download of DDVMT. There are two sets of md5 files in the rar. One is in the mdl directory, and the other is in the mk2 directory.

The instructions say to flash the MDL files, but that doesnt make sense to me. Any ideas?

Also, I flashed Dealy Venon and I currently don't have wifi.

I was going to change to a new 4.4.2 ROM but when I flashed the pit and ap_mk2_normal.tar.md5 files in Odin when it got to Complete(Write) operation failed it fails and when I tried to reboot it says firmware upgrade encountered an issue, does anyone have an idea what to do know? Would like some help, please.

I understand your point, and very much respect your feelings on this. But, I didnt put this together for the developers. I did this for the community at large, and all the users that would benefit from it. Sure, recognition is great. But at the end of the day, I want as many people as possible to enjoy a custom 4.4.2 rom on their device, as they could not otherwise. My fellow users are first and foremost in my mind. I am by no means a developer. I am just a guy who has freely enjoyed roms from here for years, and finally found a way to give back to the community that has brought me so much enjoyment for six years. Much respect to all.

Can I install the Magic Kit (still on MK2 version) and then wait to install a KitKat ROM until later? There aren't enough ROMs right now to deviate from my current daily driver.

If this is possible, I would install a KitKat ROM through SafeStrap, odin those files and then should be good to go every time I installed a new ROM?

No, it all goes hand in hand with a 4.4.2 ROM installation as it pertains to MDL, and MDL is not compatible with 4.3.

1. I create the Slot

2. Install Chaos/Echo image

3. Install Super SU update

4. Install MLDmodules.zip- Question 1

5. Reboot to Odin and flash the MLD Files- Question 2

Do I flash the MLDmodules or the NB1modules in step 4?

Do I Odin a a different set of files During Step 5?

Do I need to Odin a different Modem?

Any help is appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rebel1699:
This method is intended for stock slot only. Using rom slots will yield undesired results. This is because rom slots are handled differently, and are subject to files that safe strap imposes that are not compatible with 4.4.2 roms and/or bootloaders.
