[MENTION=522448]Fenny[/MENTION] I found a problem with the "Full Firmware you modified" tried flashing it on my friend phone yesterday first I got a mismatch md5 fixed that by renaming the file and just leaving it with .tar instead of .tar.md5 that flashed the full firmware..... But to my suprise phone booted and everything but when I installed a costum recovery TWRP and rebooted into recovery, I got an error saying you are running a file or firmware not authorized by samsung and stayed stuck in that screen no way of getting it out even with battery pull, etc etc etc...... I was forced to flash the full Firmware from samsung which got the phone to boot up again, The flashed the bootloader file you sent me individual and that worked I ended up installing the 1.2 version on his phone anyways..... But just a heads up people might run into this problem

Push it into the system/app folder and reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dr.zambonee:
I had this same exact problem. Then I figured out in PhilZ Touch CWM recovery, under 'Install zip' there is an option to uncheck 'Don't allow old update-binary'. After that this ROM will flash with no problem.

Prosit

Woops. Meant to reply to this lol :silly: my bad.

Try installing PhilZ Touch CWM recovery (which BTW is awesome), under 'install zip' uncheck 'Don't allow old update-binary'. After that, the ROM should install just fine.

I have a couple ringtones that I prefer to use but they dont seem to work when I push them to system/audio/ringtones....its always worked on other versions. ..just not on 4.4.2

Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Hmm, that is interesting. What format are they in? have you tried pushing them to /sdcard/ringtones/?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shortbus-Driver:
.ogg and no I hadn't tried that...I never used that folder lol, just straight into system
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Hmm, I would try using audacity or ffmpeg to convert them to an mp3. If it sees them, then perhaps the file format is the issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
New kernel build is up. This fixes the charging animation issue that Kernel v1.1 had.

Yes, boys and girls, ALL BOOTLOADER RELATED ISSUES ARE NOW FIXED!!!

I will be integrating this into v1.3 of the DEODEX ROM, but until then you can snag a flashable zip for the kernel here: http://www.cheatersedge.org/android/m919/FennyKernel1.2.zip
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shortbus-Driver:
Yea it sees the file...just plays some other ringtone instead, a default one I think.

Thanks for mentioning the sdcard/ringtones folder....I never thought about the convenience of it...never having to repack em into sytem everytime I flash anther rom or reflash lol....feel like an idiot now lol

Fenny, with your unlimited tether mod does that mean we can tether unlimited with no vpn without tmobile throttling or blocking tether?:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
They still check user agent strings in your browser. If you change the user agent to that of a mobile android phone, then you can do exactly as you describe. This mod effectively allows you to tether as if you were accessing the internet from your mobile phone and not a tethered device.

However, they will probably eventually catch on to things like Xbox Live gaming sessions without some sort of VPN or proxy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoboBrazil:
Thanks, would this work on a google edition rom also or touchwiz only?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
It would add a useless apk file to /system/app/ that would do nothing, but it would still patch the customer.xml file from the T-Mobile CSC properly. So, yes it should work with the Google Edition ROMs as long as they were using the right CSC since they would just ignore the TetherProvision.apk anyway.

Have been trying to download Ultra Spiffy Wifi Password Storage Fix since last night with no luck, am I supposed to buy something from mega in order to get the download? :o

Can someone share your D/L with me, I have tried two different PC's and different browsers, still no go... Have all other D/L's no problem just this zip will not cooperate.

Wont D/L into phone or tablet either.

OK just for the record, i miss the green battery in the status bar. [emoji367]

Dirty flashed from 4.2.2 with newest modem NB4, flashed unlimited tethering and wifi-fix , used Phils touch latest version, all is well, no f/c's .

Did windup with 2 superusers, and they are competing with each other, not sure which one was included in Fenny's Rom but will be deleting one.

Took a chance with not wiping data (according to instructions) and it worked out OK.

Only thing I had to rre-flash was my transparent weather widget.

Great work Fenny.

MOD: Samsung Milk

NOTE: I have tentatively cleared this with the moderators. MODS: If any legal question is raised feel free to erase the contents of this post.

This is a modified version of Samsung Milk with references to the Samsung Account services removed. It is also modified to install and work on any device, not just the Samsung ones. You WILL need to uninstall any versions of Milk that you have already installed if you want to use this application.

Download v1.0.176956: Milk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] waqman:
Guys, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm on a deodexed/rooted stock 4.2.2 TW rom. I had CWM recovery and I couldn't get this rom to flash properly (phone would freeze at samsung logo), so then I used flashify to install TWRP 2.7.0.1 and then try to flash the rom, but I still cannot get my phone to boot.

I verified md5 value for the rom (couldn't find one for the kernel), I did a full wipe everytime, I tried flashing with/without kernel to no avail. Every single time, my phone loads the samsung screen and doesn't do anything more than that.

I'm pretty sure I followed all ths steps in the OP in the right order. I just skipped the modem update stuff.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
That is very odd... Do you know which bootloader you have?

I do know that in some cases the rom did take quite some time to boot for the first time while it generated the dalvik-cache. Do you think you might not be giving it enough time to boot?

As an alternative: You might have some luck if you flash 1.0 and allow it to build the dalvik cache from that ROM, then if you dirty flash 1.2 dexopt should just do an "OS Upgrade".

*EDIT*

If all of that fails, you are probably going to want to ODIN back to stock since it would likely mean that one or more of your partitions just isn't right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
I second what Fenny said about giving it plenty of time in first boot. I think it's around six minutes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] waqman:
Idk my bootloader - how do I check? I'll have to try the 1.0 trick or going back to stock through ODIN tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestions!

I waited 15 minutes every time. :(

Fenny how much knox does this Rom have?

I'm having issues with IPService when looking at battery stats in settings, can this be deleted, i have a option in app info. It's not letting phone deep sleep.

There is also some knox stuff coming up in android os. This is the only knox reference I have seen anywhere on phone. These battery stat img's are since I flashed this great Rom.

Pp.

sent from my S4 as I replace spark plugs on my Ford Escape via bluetooth.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
IPservice is part of wifi calling. There were a couple of knox bits still kicking around, but they weren't part of the policy enforcement stuff. I have found and eliminated them in my testing for the upcoming full v3 release.

You can safely remove these:

ContainerAgent.apk
ContainerEventsRelayManager.apk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
If you can get booted to a Rooted ROM and run "adb shell su root dmesg > dmesg.txt" the file dmesg.txt will contain your bootloader version near the top of the log.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] OreBoySwaggin:
I had that problem too but it eventually disappears. I think it's just the rom settling down.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Yes IPService pertains to Wi-Fi calling, I always had it set to "Cellular network preferred" ,but never had it keep phone awake for that long, app manager gives me an option to delete, that's wierd ? Will check account info syncing preferences.

Will pluck remnants of Knox.

:thumbup: So far very stable, nothing wierd, everything works. :thumbup:;)

This rom is a winner! :thumbup::beer:;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NATA8986:
Could anyone tell me how is the battery life of this Rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] legato89:
How stable is this ROM? Be honest, I am kind of jaded with flashing ROMs, as it seems there is always some issue with every ROM I've tried that completely puts me off of it. The only thing I want out of my S4 that requires a ROM is the ability to tether/bypass Tmobiles tethering check. Can that be done with this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Yes, tethering is a MOD in the OP. I am using this as my daily driver. The only issues I have had is with wakelocks caused by applications that I installed into userland my own self. In v1.2 the samsung account service has been removed. If you want this service you can reinstall it from the APKs on my webserver. I posted the link to them more than a couple times in the thread IIRC.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] legato89:
Thanks, I won't need any of the Samsung services. I am going to try your ROM & I hope it is stable, otherwise I'm done all together with flashing ROMs. I spend just as much time flashing, troubleshooting, restoring settings, etc. as I do actually using the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
This may be the most stable S4 Rom in xda at the moment, because of its mostly stock nature this Rom is a daily driver X 2, I choose my ROMs cearfully because my phone is super important to the well being of my disabled daughter, she goes to school and at times she needs to be picked up at school, that's where my phone needs to be stable and getting reception at all times.

I flashed from stock 4.2.2 with the newest modem NB4, and all was well , phone shows more periods of being awake but have not noticed high battery consumption.

If you're running stock you should have no problem, if on a highly moded Rom pay extra attention to the instructions, or go back to stock before flashing.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] legato89:
I always pay close attention to instructions and it irritates the hell out of me when people, even the ROM developers, insist I am not when my post history in their thread documents me doing everything. Wicked ROM progressively got worse for me and the only help I got from anyone was to reflash and follow the instructions about wiping everything. I reformatted my SD card, reformatted every partition and wiped everything for four seperate instillations for that ROM and the final straw happened a few days ago when I had to swap batteries and basically all of my user settings were lost (wifi, wallpaper, etc.).

I am not using this ROM but I follow fenny work here. I was reading this post about knox remanings and saw this post to remove the ContainerAgent to beremoved safely. While doing this I saw a sub folder named container in system folder ( i am on Echoe Rom) . This sube folder contain to apk in it with knox : KnoxModeswitcher.apk and sec_container_1.zzzKnoxLauncher.apk.

My question do you guys also have this folder with these knox apk ? Can we safley delete it ? I will aks in Echo Rom thread but just wanted to point out here too.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] calisoldier83:
This ROM is rock solid, compared to custom ROMs. I'm guessing due to minimal development, that nothing major is being affected. Definitively loving this compared to my experiences, came from the wicked ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
I never wiped anything but /system on that ROM on reflashing the ROM when i had issues - most caused by multiple kernel flashes. Ditto dbROM, and now this one and and Insane.

What method did you use to restore data on it ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Out of the two knox related apks that Fenny said to remove, I was only able to track down the first one, cont.agent, the second container apk I could not find cont.eventrelaymanager.apk.

sec_container_1.zzzKnoxLauncher.apk and KnoxModeswitcher.apk I don't see in any sys folder on this Rom.

Maybe Fenny can clarify when he gets a chance.

Thank you Both

Just want to give a huge shout out and Thank you to both Fenny ( for Dropping his Stock ROM) just a few short weeks ago and sharing his base with The Sickness...I think I was one of the many who flashed Fenny's 4.4.2 V1.0 Stock shortly after it dropped and the same for The Sickness' Insane KIt Kat. It is such a pleasure to see both Devs helping out in their respective threads as well as each other's...I try to donate to both equally (please rest assured that neither Dev has ever solicited such or has ever asked for a donation) This is my way of saying thank you to them both as a small token of my appreciation for all the hard work and time that they put into giving us these great roms and allowing us to realize the full potential of our phones and these guys are just getting started...

So far this rom seems smooth and stable. Can the lockscreen wallpaper be changed safely somehow? Also, I used to be able to change the home button double tap and hold in Wanam but no longer, apparently due to the version of android. Other than using the Home2Shortcut app (which is laggy) is there any other way to remap the home button? I would like a Siri experience of easily accessing Google Voice Search.

Okay, I just had a bug where Google kept asking for my password. No matter how many times I'd correctly enter my password and authentication code it wouldn't take it. I know my password is still correct because I could use it to sign in and out on my browser and I am not getting this issue on my Nexus 10...Restarting seems to have fixed it. When I checked my Google account it showed everything still synching, but I couldn't use any google apps like Voice or Hangouts; it would keep prompting me to re enter my password.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
That is very odd, see if you can get a logcat during the time that it is happening if it happens again. I had a similar issue with paypal when an app was using an old paypal API to do an in-app purchase.

Do you have any third party applications that are linking into Google Services?

Also the repeated prompts for a password could indicate that someone was trying to brute-force a login into your google account.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] legato89:
I have a few other apps like Swiftkey that are linked, but they seem to still be functioning. If it was someone trying to brute-force, I am pretty sure I would receive an alert, at least according to the Details at the bottom of gmail which shows me the account activity based on IP and access type. Also, why would it only effect my phone if it was an attempted login? Everything is fine now, so if it was someone running a script or program trying to brute into my account shouldn't I still be getting the password prompt, and not just on my phone?

Mind if I ask how to get a logcat?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Yes, you would also have issues with logging into google accounts on your web browser if someone was trying to bruteforce into your account.

The basic idea is to start collecting logs just before the issue occurs, and stop just after.

There are a couple of good ways to get a logcat. The easiest (In my opionion) involves using adb.

The command would be: "adb logcat > c:\path\to\mylogcat.txt", and when you were done collecting logs you would just hit ctrl + c to stop.

You can even do it in terminal emulator: "su root logcat > /sdcard/mylogcat.txt"

Otherwise there are some good apps out there like catlog that can snag a logcat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] legato89:
Okay, if it happens again I'll try to get a logcat.

An unrelated question: Is there a way to rename my device on the Google end, so it shows up in my account as Galaxy S4 instead of SGH-M919? I noticed that it depends on which ROM I am using.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
I think it has to do with the device id in the build.prop. Google may not have name resolutions for all of the different device ids. I.E. GT-i9505 would almost certainly resolve to say Galaxy S4 while SGH-M919 might not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Netuser:
So this is just a backup ? Can i delete the containers folder safely ?
