Call Waiting

Can anyone tell me how to switch between calls? Used to have a hold/swap button to deal with call waiting and that is not present any longer. Any help would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abe.froman:
I can confirm that using the above NC5 modules and the NC5 modem worked on the MK2 bootloader. Wifi wouldn't turn on using MK2 modules and modem, but wifi works with the NC5 modules and modem. The stock battery option caused systemui crashes, but the OG battery option works without issue so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ElementalWindX:
can someone link the nc5 modem you guys are saying I should use? Perhaps I have the wrong one since my nc5 modem keeps failing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abe.froman:
I don't want to confuse things by posting another link to the download, but if you follow the link provided by hakisac (quoted in my post above), it leads to the download link that surge provided.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ElementalWindX:
If your referring to this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52606933

all I saw there were the modules, not the modem.

Also I just noticed the jfltevzw-NC5-modules I already had was 592kb and the jfltevzw-NC5-modules linked above is 508kb so I don't know what changed but I've downloaded that to my phone for the next go around.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abe.froman:
I'm sorry, I misread what you were looking for. Here is the thread for the modems: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2487298

I used the retail NC5 modem with non-hlos and it worked. The non-hlos apparently aren't necessary, but I have not tried it without.

Also, the NC5 modules I already had on my phone did not work, but that one from surge did. No idea what the difference is.

FWIW

I am running this ROM as my daily driver and, for me, it is the best ROM currently available for the S4. My setup is Echoe v20.3 for Verizon themed with BlackandColors with this sound mod to increase in-call volume 4_4_2_Loud_Sound.zip [URL="http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407586724"]

My S4 is still fortunately MDK. I do not know how this setup will run on SS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ElementalWindX:
Here are better (perfect) instructions for those who did the Serge NC2/NC5 walkthrough ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2726868 )

Ok. For SS'rs on NC2 Bootloader and NC5 pre-rooted.

WIPE ALL OF THESE WHILE IN SS 3.72: DATA/SYSTEM/DALVIK/CACHE

Install this ROM in the STOCK slot ONLY. Choose old bootloader with the stock kernel, later in the install choose the OG options for the battery, and make sure you choose VZW for CSC.

DO NOT REBOOT - untick option at end of Aroma.

Install: UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip (Obtainable from Surge's NC2/NC5 pre-rooted thread in "General")

Install: THIS NC5 MODULES FILE (Obtainable from Giglios thread here in this dev forum - have fun finding it, I did!)

Install: THIS NC5 MODEM FILE (Obtainable from Surge's Modem thread in "General")

Now I did another Dalvic/Cache wipe just to be safe.

Reboot and you will have a working ROM with Wifi.

Thanks for all your help guys :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Credit Clown:
Hi, noob here. I'm currently on MJ7 and I flashed this, but it will never boot. I even deleted my ROM slot and created it again to flash fresh, but it will never boot the first time, it just sits on the boot screen. To use this, do I need to do the sage's method or whatnot and go to NC2 or NC5? I don't really know what those mean, can somebody explain it to me? Thanks guys :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
NC2 & NC5 are 4.4 firmwares on Verizon. NC2 was a leak and NC5 is the official OTA from Verizon. Follow the instructions in Surge's thread then follow the instructions I just quoted in the post above yours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
YES follow Surge's method then follow instructions provided here by others?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackhawk123:
Wifi is working perfect and everything else is besides my data . When I turn off my wifi or just not use wifi . My data doesn't work . I have the 4glte logo . I've turn data on and off and switch to global then back to lte. No luck . I have even restarted the phone and still nothing . Anyone else having this issue ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Did you toggle airplane mode ? What kernel are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackhawk123:
Yes I did do the airplane mode on then off . I used the old boot loader . I figured it was my apn settings and the Verizon apn settings is missing something by default after install but it won't let me edit it . Also it won't let me add a new apn .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Try and re flash with out wiping
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chris23445:
I finished installing and setting the ROM up just now. I am running SS 3.72 and just upgraded to NC5 via Serge's method. I followed the instructions in the OP, and I flashed the ROM, then SuperSU, then the two modem files. I opened SuperSU, and it says I do not have the binary files installed, and it cannot install them. I downloaded a root checker which tells me I do not have root. I was fully rooted before installing this ROM, as I could open and use SuperSU before. Did I do something wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Not sure what happened. (it's the gremlins lol)? did you do any extra wipes in between all those flashes to be safe? What else have you tried?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Azuma73:
I took the plunge and upgraded from 4.3 mk2 to 4.4.2 nc5 yesterday using surge's method just fine. Installed EchoROM as per OP and everything is all rainbows & puppy-dogs here. No blips or funk at all for me...so far!?!?:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Hi. I don't know why, but my 3g/4G signal randomly turns off during the day. It usually shows my 4G icon, but when I load Facebook it says there is no internet.

I haven't flashed a new radio for this phone though, so do you think that may be the problem. If so, how would I update the radio and where is the file located?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Hrmm, My "Android System" battery stat is still unusually high drain today. It's neck in neck with "Screen On" time percentage drain and I'm starting to get concerned. I blamed it yesterday on the "Google" issues but now I'm starting to wonder what is going on.

I believe 4.4.3 will fix a lot of that ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] royredman:
I am currently on a non safe strapped rom, would nc2 or nc5 modem be on the wrong bootloader? Because it says to only flash the right bootloaders rom. Also, if I go back to a 4.3 stock rom, would I have to re flash a new modem?

Dl'g v 21 and modem .zip...

Also have your v.20.3 just fyi ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Do not flash modem! That link is to original Echoe Rom. I'm working on my update to v21 as we speak? if you flash the original you will need to flash the international patch?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Thanks [MENTION=4304370]jds3118[/MENTION] I thought so since Echo is a European rom. But wanted to make sure.

Edit: GSM modem, clearly incompatible. Needs to be flashed in Odin.

Following [MENTION=650592]lazer9[/MENTION] 's steps to a T

Everything appears good, however, still no WiFi. The toggle/setting will activate (it turns on) but it does not connect to the network. I came from [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] 's MK2-NC5 write-up. I couldn't get WiFi working on that, either, but when I saw [MENTION=650592]lazer9[/MENTION] 's post and all the success stories, I didn't worry about it.

I guess I'll try and reflash the NC5 modules and see what that does ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] abe.froman:
I followed the directions by [MENTION=650592]lazer9[/MENTION] with the exception that I used nc5 modules and modem. Also, I had to use surge's nc5 modules linked a few pages back to get the wifi working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Right, And need to check what bootloader you are on. In my case, my directions were for those that took Surge's initial MK2/MKJ to NC2 pre-release rooted ROM process which upgraded the bootloader to NC2. Follow last quoted for better directions in your case.

If in doubt of your bootloader: Search "Phone Info" in playstore by Samsung and download that free app version. It will tell you everything you need to know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] adamklo:
OK, so I am on the NC5 bootloader, as I thought, but even when I flash the NC5 modules I still get no WiFi.

I'm going to Full Wipe and reinstall based on your steps, only with NC5 modules/modem. Let's see how that goes.

EDIT: OK, so when going back to flash the ROM, I re-read that bit about old vs. new bootloaders and what to look for while I'm in Download mode. So I backed out of/quit installation and went into download mode. Since my screen states "knox now void" or whatever the wording is, I think I'm supposed to have the new bootloader option selected. That doesn't really matter right now because when I restart my phone, it won't go past the Samsung custom unlock screen.

Thoughts?

[MENTION=4304370]jds3118[/MENTION] I have been on Eco v. 18 since it's release in the i9505 thread by sequentially flashing Echo and the [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] VZW patch. Is this the same, or have you added anything to what I was doing manually?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
It's basically the same the main difference is I believe the patch uses the i9505 kernels then loki-doki's them mine uses ktoonsez i545 kernel built for our device. I had read in his thread that wifi tether wasn't working not sure if this was fixed but this rom has both wifi and blue tooth tethering (native) working. I also used Echoe's Build.prop and slightly modified it for vzw to keep the tweaks Echoe had built in.

i ran the bobcat theme, but i dont' believe it was working before either. What's weird is that i'm pretty familiar with the sounds area. I've done it before and used both root explorer copying files and changing the properties to 644. And i've use ultimate sound pro which automates it.

What is more weird, is that when i play the sounds i see in the folder such as the sounds for TW_Touch.ogg or TW_SIP.ogg or Effect_Tick.ogg, the ones that do play, are different from those that are in this directory /system/media/audio/ui

I know Microsoft Windows gets issues whenever a file exists in more than one place. I'm wondering if it's a similar issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
You have the sounds in 2 different files?

Edit: I went back and checked system/media/audio/ui folder and all sounds played correctly and all my sounds are working during normal phone usage so not sure what's going on ?

Intersting. I just made a backup. I'm debating whether to re-install over this one minor issue. I'm still having an intermittent issue with 4g though. For some reason, even upgrading my modem yesterday to the latest, my 4G falls off to 3G more often than not. This is not an issue on the base ROM. I'm hoping it's just that my chip is bad and needs replacing.

Issue resolved! I went to Verizon and they said my sim card is older and issues do occur with them losing 4g. They said they recently switched to a new manufacturer of sims that is more stable with 4g switching. I noticed that it helped, but didn't fix the problem all together. Once i reflashed the ROM from this thread, using the USA CSC parm, instead of the one from the main echoe thread that has not been customized for VZW, that finally finished the problem.

thanks!

Even coming back up from MK2 to NC5 rooted and into Echoe I still don't have WiFi while data is active. When I get to work, I put my phone in airplane mode (that poor reception; saps my battery) and I connect to the WiFi. This morning, it connected right to the network and has been working without issue. Maybe the problem has something to do with being on data vs. airplane mode?
