Anyone have the new play store 4.9.13 inverted/themed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Was wondering where you were didn't hear from you when I was looking for testers lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Sorry man been busy, how's it coming?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Been busy here too lol I've got reports from 2 testers for v29.1 so that should be good for release later today. I still need v29 tested
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nonek:
Safety assistance is for setting up an emergency contact and there is a way to setup your phone to quickly dial someone for assistance if your in distress. I'm not sure why that wouldn't be 911 but ok. ;)

Unfortunately it's not the same thing but thank you.

Thank you sir and I know your busy. Really appreciate your work.

I believe that you are looking for the amber alerts and emergency weather alerts. I too was wondering. I would like the option to have them on or off.

Were you able to 29.1 water resistant? Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
I haven't had the time really play with the phone like I did a few months ago. I haven't kept up with the Rom updates since v24....so I'm jumping straight from v24 to v 28.1. For me....without going through the updates....It could just be a lot of the S5 stuff that isn't in v24 that just uses more juice. I don't know. I wasn't complaining or looking for a solution....Just commenting on my experience. Compared with v24 that I just came from....this battery life is worse.

Now I can say after a few days of using it and it settling in, it's getting better, but v24 was better. This version is much smoother. FYI, I have extra batteries and an external charger so it's not a deal breaker.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
There are a lot of things you can do like greenify apps to get better battery life. The s5 mods makes the Rom totally different. Better battery stats will help find the battery sucking apps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loonie01:
Which better battery stats is it. I see 2 in the market place.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
It's screen time and android system and Android OS. It's fine...I like the Rom. All Roms with 4.4 vs 4.3 have had crappy life in comparison.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
OK testers reports are good will be releasing v29 aroma and v29.1 s5 port this morning!!! Links and info soon!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Switching back to my s4 for this one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlhalz:
Uh Oh

Alright, I think I may have screwed myself....

I was on MDK firmware and was running Echoe 28.1 and my flashaholic self got a little itchy and decided to give Chaos a try. Everything seemed to be going well until I realized that my Wi-Fi was not working.

On post #17 in the Chaos thread, there is a Wi-Fi fix posted. I flashed that and all seemed well. I started going through the settings and setting everything up. The phone then started bootlooping. It would go through the splash screen and go to my lock screen and then would reboot. This repeated over and over again. It was late and instead of starting from scratch with Chaos again, I restored a nandroid of the Echoe rom that I was running previously.

All seemed to be well until this morning when I realized that I had no sound. Nothing through speaker or bluetooth. Attempting to adjust the volume locks up the phone for approx 2 minutes.

I realized that my firmware version has changed to NC2. I'm assuming that it came from flashing the wi-fi fix.

Is there anyway to go back to MDK or am I stuck with the NC2 and need to learn about safestrap and flashing some "modules" may fix my sound issues?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Use this app from the play store and confirm the bootloader and all phone info to see what you have then report back with pics if possible and we will help fix it

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Links up in op for v29.1 and v29
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loonie01:
Any possibility of a mirror? Mega is usually slow on my end.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlhalz:
Well, it shows MDK. Maybe a totally clean flash after full wipe will do the trick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Correct mdk bootloader is good your baseband/modem is NC2 which is fine. So yes a full wipe and flash or restore backup.

If you have no sound at all you may need to flash the nonhlos to match bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
I will upload to afh today and post links
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
If I do a full wipe and install the 28.1 port on my vzw s4 with safestrap, do I need to flash any modules or supersu?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] apeman81:
I should have said that I am verizon. So yes it does indeed!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlhalz:
I'll give the non-hlos a shot....

Which one should i use, since I'm showing mdk & nc2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Yes modules for sure not positive about the su though some say yes some say no lol guess it wouldn't hurt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Your bootloader is mdk so that's the one you want you will flash with odin. After that you can update the modem only in recovery if you want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Mega's giving me a write error even to internal SD. Excited for this though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Yeah mega can be a PIA. I'm working on uploading to afh today but that's going to be a while lol sorry

Would you have the MD5 for 29.1 handy? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hakisac78:
Hey Jay...love the rom!!!! I had a question, no biggie, but when I try to activate dev options...about fc's. Is there a different way to activate?

If this has been asked already I'm sorry, but I looked a few pages back and saw nothing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Worked for me... I enabled it through the s5 settings apk if that makes any difference.

Running pretty flawlessly for me with ktoonsez kernel, just playing the GPS lock game with it and losing lol. I've had better luck after flashing Alucard gonna try that later.

Thanks so much JDS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Unfortunately not being on Verizon anymore makes it harder to test everything sorry. There was one report of that issue a few versions back but nothing more since. Not sure why it's causing a problem. What version are you on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hakisac78:
V. 29.1 on vzw. I'm also running ss. It's no deal breaker for me. There were a couple of settings in dev. that I like to change. But the rom flies as is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Good luck my friend! Thanks for the support!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Will see what I can find out maybe others can help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
I usually check usb debugging in the dev options. Is there another way to get the same effect?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hakisac78:
+1. I was wondering the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Silassi1:
I believe a buildprop edit to change USB notify....I had the same issue...I just used another ROMs settings app that is compatible enable it then after change back to jds settings app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bryannn29:
Sorry if this is a dumb question but what are the differences between v28.1 and v29.1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
28.1 is NG2 based and 29.1 is the new NG8 base. The kernel was also updated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
Will this work on safestrap on vzw s4 if I flash the modules as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
FYI, I decided to go ahead and load 29.1 tonight anyway. I was able to get developer options just fine. My "dirty flash" routine lately is to backup, then wipe cache/dalvik/system/data. Reboot, setup my account and then boot to recovery and restore data only. This time, before booting to recovery to restore the data, I went into settings, about.. and was able to hit the build and activate dev options.

It was still there after the data restore too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trasher73:
Any chance you will be uploading to afh?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fdigl:
Is there the UPSM on v29.1? I'm living here in the stone age with v26 here, looking to update if it does have it. If not, I'll probably wait until the next update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
I tried dirty flashing from v27 to v29 and I got an Installer Status 6 message, and nothing ended up installing. Any ideas? I'm not even sure what that means.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
What recovery are you using? (Type and version number)

I think Status 6 either means there's incorrect formatting in the script or your recovery needs to be updated. I don't think it's a script issue since others including myself flashed successfully.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
TWRP 2.7.1.0, which should be the latest version. Have flashed tons of this on this recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Had 2 failed attempts yesterday with afh going to try again today
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Yes UPSM in v29.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Hmm I just googled and update recovery is for status 7 apparently, my bad. The only thing I see anyone mention is the first thing I said, incorrect formatting in the updater script, but I don't know why that would only affect you. I would try to redownload or clean flash. Or try this guide:http://mobility.forumsee.com/a/m/s/p12-9535-0181898--fix-status-while-flashing-roms.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loonie01:
I had 2 soft boots this morning on 29.1. I wiped cache and running smooth so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Installer Status

Thanks! It's definitely not "Number 1:The developer of the ROM was too stupid to fix this mistake" haha. Must be Number 2. I'll try installing again, then try re-downloading when I get home.

I also had a Installer Status 7 last night when trying to test out Purified ROM which I couldn't get past.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
I just installed 29.1 and its running flawlessly but I wanted to know how to get rid of the circle battery in the statusbar

Look for "3minit Battery Settings" in the app drawer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cplking:
I'm on safe strap and it was status 6 and never booted. Had to Odin back twice to get it to boot up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Who said anything about "the developer of the Rom was to stupid to fix this mistake"? and what mistake are you referring to? Plenty of other people both mdk and SafeStrap have had no "mistake" or problems flashing this rom.

I left Verizon about a month ago so I can't run these ports anymore yet I have managed to provide updates anyway, thanks to the help of testers, when I originally wasn't going to do anymore updates.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
Is anyone else having any issues with extremely extremely slow charging on 29.1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
You misunderstand me. I was quoting the link joshm posted: http://mobility.forumsee.com/a/m/s/p12-9535-0181898--fix-status-while-flashing-roms.html

You're appreciated bro. Trust me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Might have been a bad download. I'm trying to upload again to afh after 2 failed attempts yesterday. It takes about 4-5 hours to upload the 1.4 GB file for v29.1 and even longer for the 1.9 GB v29 file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
My apologies for the misunderstanding. I didn't check the link posted originally but I just did an wow that was dated 2012 lol it's 2 years old and the first line says " I assume " hahaha and we all know what happens to most who " assume"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
None that I have heard of you are the first to report that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
I'm not sure if it's a rom problem but I've tried a couple different batteries and 2 chargers so I'm not sure what else could be causing it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] huntinwabbits:
For what it's worth, I had this issue when I dirty flashed 29.1 on top of 28.1. However, after a clean install it worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Clean flash? What Rom where you on before?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
I was on eclipse tw 4.0.2 and had no charging issues and I did a full wipe then flashed the rom with modules and supersu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
OK just checking. That's weird though no one else reported a problem with charging. Maybe try and flash again without any wipes aka dirty flash and see if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
So just boot into ss and without wiping anything flash 29.1 and reboot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] apeman81:
Just installed 29.1. I had no issue accessing and modifying the Dev options. I did this immediately upon completing the upload. Will let you know if I find any issue.

Clean install coming from 28.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
And any SS modules etc. That normally get flashed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
I actually downgraded to 28.1 do you think a dirty flash on top of that would work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
You can try a few people had a bug with it but a few had no problems
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
This is what I did also. Then I went back and restored 28 1 data only in recovery. Peachy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jon53179:
Is there something wrong with the v29 file? i did a clean SS install and it dies but i can boot back in without any of the options i selected and i get an Installer Status 6

Could be a bad download maybe? Were you able to go through the aroma Installer?

yup i selected my options and it installed in less than a second i will take pics right now... i re downloaded it

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:
Don't remember but there is a v29 and a v29.1 and only one had aroma. And they both did the same to me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Clean flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:
No just swipe factory reset and installed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Twrp? What Rom are you coming from?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Did u try and flash the themed messaging app in the OP, that should fix the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jon53179:
Went with the new download and flowed thru Aroma at the end it shows 0.0% progress for about 5 seconds and i get this ....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:
Carhd
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
You can try instead of swipe to wipe hit advance then select cache, dalvic cache, system, and data then flash rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:
I'll give it a shot

OK now I understand. We need some safestrap users to please help out with this because I have never used safestrap. So the Rom boots fine but the options you chose aren't there. Are you selecting old or new bootloader?

new BL

I am on 29.1 but would prefer 29 because of the Aroma options... 29 is where the problems are

My build number is FN1 and I realize that Echoe V26 is built for this one as I can get everything to work on that version; however, I like the theme of V29 better and am wondering if it is possible to get this rom version to work on my device with my settings.

I believe you need to full wipe factory reset including system depending on the Rom you came from then flash rom, modules, WiFi fix and su then reboot

The sickness modz v5 has some colored keyboards you can try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the immunity:
I always full wipe factory reset and the problem remains... Does my build number have anything to do with it? Because the rom and my build number don't match. And also what modules do I need because the ones I've flashed for NC2 don't work... Basically I can't find a single rom for KitKat 4.4.2 that works smoothly and is as stable as I had on 4.3 MK2... I'm dangerously close to just reverting back to that because it actually... worked....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] droidkill3r:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
what bootloader are you on? NC2? I believe the latest verizon is NC5 but either way people on mdk, mj7, nc2, and nc5 have all flashed and are running the rom just fine not sure why it's not working for you. I know it can be frustrating but there are people here that will help you. As for the modules I'm not sure what ones you need as I have never used safestrap sorry. As for the build number that reflects the roms build number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
Not odin. I mean wipe system, data, cache, and dalvic cache
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the immunity:
I believe it's NC2 because all of the modules I had to flash for roms were NC2 based but how do I check my bootloader to make sure? I updated to KitKat through this video http://youtu.be/AIRoQKTLeJQ but none of the NC5 modules worked once I flashed new roms like Echoe or Phoenix. Right now I flashed the Echoe v26 because that was the only one that worked properly... but I just restored my nandroid data backup and now it boots up and shows the lockscreen but then after like 4 seconds it goes back to the samsung splashsceen just before the lockscreen and keeps looping..... WTF. How am I the only one with this problem lol...

Great app tells you everything about sammy phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the immunity:
Ok so when I have the stock deodexed 4.4.2 rom flashed (which is how I upgraded to KitKat in the first place) the app you showed me says I have the NC5 bootloader. So what next?

I also noticed that when I flash something like Echoe rom, my baseband version changes from NC5 to NC2... Not sure if that has anything to do with the bootloader or anything for that matter...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
The build number change may have to do with the modules that are flashed I believe they are NC2 modules. But the Rom flash doesn't change bootloader or modem. I'm thinking that something is flashing wrong either the modules or something not sure. I have never used safestrap so it's very hard to help you. There are safestrap user here so hopefully someone can help. I would also ask in the safestrap thread maybe you can get some help there. Sorry I couldn't do more to help but if I do I will let you know.
