I was just asked at work ..

What is the best modem for vinar?

What's the recommend for the devs? Figured it was a form question.

I'm using ND1 on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Personally? I think its up to the individual devices. Some people think, lets say, the mk2 modem, others say the mdk modem. My advice to you, take some time and try all of the modems on your personal device in the same spot. That will give you the answer. I have done this and found the older mdk modem works best for me! :)

Has anyone else been having issues with soundcloud lately? If I clear all data and remove the account from my phone, and then log back in, I'm lucky to get 1 song out of the app before it just sticks at trying to load the next one. I also get a force close from exchange services when I log in or remove the account.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I have been issues with playing large media files myself. Rocket music gives me less issues. But Apollo has been locking up on me even as a system app. I would be posting logs but logcat isn't showing anything..

Tried to Odin mk2 myself last night but didn't take.

My buddy was asking because we both where running vanir on my s2 and his s3 with great radio.. Now we both have s4's and he noticed he is losing signal at his house now. And I noticed that my signal use to be -90s on my s2 but now I'm at -110 to -120 at my place.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
On another note.. Commotio 6/26 is snappy.

I really love watching ROMs go from buggy to insane!!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] exeleon:
Just wanted to share that the 5.0 keyboard is working flawlessly on latest Vanir nightly. Get it here. Theres also a whole bunch of other stuff pulled from a system dump, but I have yet to try most of it. Happy to be back on Vanir, by far the BEST rom for the GS4!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I can verify it works on commotio as well.

It's pretty cool

May want to update the op we are on 4.4.4 now BTW :p
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] luisfillipe:
does this rom came with the new Android L apps ? im using a stock samsung rom based and i cant install the new GNL =(
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Not yet. I know that some apps don't work that well yet, which can be expected.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Willie68wr:
Really like this rom... The only thing that's not working for me are the navigation rings. Hopefully it'll get fixed in future builds.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] noremac258:
I wonder...

What's the difference between Vanir and commotio?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Different theming and cutting edge tweaks. Best way to find out is to flash it and find out. That's how I found out! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] exeleon:
Is there gonna be a stable release or release candidate for vanir? I mean all of these nighties seem so stable I couldn't see why not. Just wondering.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] noremac258:
I flashed a commotio a few nights ago and I didn't notice a difference other than the boot animation and blue tones, anything of a real difference I'm missing?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Nope
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] noremac258:
What do you mean "nope," I'd like to know the difference.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Its one of the vanir developers personal taste on vanir. His own theme, and new tweaks that may not be stable enough for vanir yet. I don't know the exact tweaks.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] noremac258:
Ok, thanks for your help :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Anyone else unable to see the change logs the last two builds under vanir? Or where there just no changes?

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] djlucklu:
Yea my calls are low. They were fine on 7/1… my speaker and headset calls are horrible. Is there a working volume mod for 4.4 4 aosp
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Have you tried clearing data on the dialer?

And not sure on the volume mod.

Perhaps using viper4android may help?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Is there a split screen toggle somewhere I'm overlooking?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
I don't think there is split screen in vanir.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Not sure man. I just did a clean install of vanir last night. No sound issues here
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Question to the devs.

With all this android L talk starting up. Is vanir going to jump right in? Or wait awhile?

Personally I would rather see a bit of a wait. Android released have been conning quick this last year.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] buzzwyzr:
Considering that L isn't even complete much less released...you don't have a choice to wait.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I meant after it is released :p
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] djlucklu:
Figured out the issue. It was total recall app. I use it to record callls.. Wish this Rom has built in recording feature
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
That sucks. There's a few out there try a few different ones.

Erm. Guys. File Manager? Lol. I tried to use this rom for a dual boot secondary rom and couldn't get anywhere without a file manager.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] djlucklu:
Thnx bro
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Use ES file manager. Its my favorite free file manager.

It's a little difficult to install Gapps through the zip but I did have apk of play store but couldn't get to it without a file manager. I notice must aosp roms have a basic file manager preinstalled. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Willie68wr:
Flashed this rom Friday being that I really liked it on 4.2.2 but kept getting a message on calls saying no signal found and my calls kept dropping.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Make sure your APN is set up correctly. Other than that I haven't seen any recent issues about no service.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] churchey360:
Im downloading the 7/8 build now. I havent flashed this rom in awhile so i cant wait to see what its like now :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] churchey360:
This ROM has been running great so far no problems at all :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] exeleon:
On 7/9 vanir.. I'm having issues sending MMS. All pictures I try to send fail. I assume this may have something to do with APNs but not sure how to fix it or if it's something else. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Hmm I lost service while running ART on the 7/9 build. Dalvik is OK though. My best guess is that something is broken.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] exeleon:
I just installed handcent and sent a picture message without problem, so it's lookin' like its something with hangouts or the gapps I used. (Pa stock package)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I had a similar issue on another rom. Clearing data on the app seemed to fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I swapped over to art. Not having any issues. I'm on uscc though.

Does anyone else notice that the sound is somewhat distorted?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Never had that issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] unomedmen1:
Right after flashing the ROM and setting up the ringtone and notifications is when i get the distortion. Kinda like the volume is too high or something. I flashed liquidsmooth to compare, but the volume sounds perfectly clear on that ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
How high do you have your volume? I don't usually turn mine up past 3/4 because of distortion BUT its also plenty loud before it starts distorting.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] unomedmen1:
Well thats the thing, I raised it all the way and its distorted true, but i do the exact same on liquidsmooth and its clear, no distortion at all.I even use the same ringtone, yet its only distorted on this ROM. I really really prefer this ROM or any other, but this volume issue is getting to me lol:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ahoslc:
Anyone here try SlimSaber Kat lately how does this compare?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ahoslc:
I also had the same issues on fresh flash even at lowest volume it seems distorted

Have you tried using viper 4 android?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] b4u2:
On this rom how would I force a PRL update?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] djlucklu:
Any one know. How to solve this. Its a back to back error. I had to disable to stop the errors

Wipe your caches and re-flash a current gapps file? Try this: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567713125

I'm having similar issue but with Google +
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Either that [MENTION=2648468]Triscuit[/MENTION] said or by wiping data of specifically Google play services.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
I was getting alot of FC's also even on a clean install but i was using DHO 4.4.3 gapps with the latest vanir.

What fixed it was a fresh DL of DHO's 4.4.4 gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Most likely because vanir is now 4.4.4 even thought the OP still says 4.4.3
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Ya I know. They where still working until a few releases ago ... for me at least.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] nazfalas:
I do not regret switching to this from carbon. The speed is amazing and battery life is great, as well.

Already also recommended this to a friend on mako and he couldn't be happier.

Thank you for the great rom!

Can anyone cast their screen via chromecast? I don't have the button for it

I've noticed it. I'm on the latest nightly and with the ringer volume 2 clicks above vibrate most of the ringtones are very loud and somewhat distorted.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] kipue:
Hey all, just trying this rom after a long time :)

It really has all the stuff I like and really is smooth!

I have a question though, in your experience, would you say that it is better to keep the built-in Kernel? Or did you have good results with another?

Please let me know; thanks!

EDIT

Re-read the full OP, so yeah, got my answer :D
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Mine still charges when off.. But the battery animation is just broke, I do have to long press the power to boot it thought sometimes.. Im using the latest KT kernel thought not the built in one.

Data Connection/Weird flickering issues.

Ok guys, you may be familiar with me loving this ROM a few pages ago. For the last few weeks, I've been having real problems with mobile data and weird flickering on the top right quarter of the screen just bugging out. There is a few reasons this is killing me:

1) This only happens on AOSP roms from the last few weeks

2) This isn't a hardware thing, because TW roms don't experience this.

3) I have and functioning airrave in my home that is literally a few feet away when I'm experiencing these issues

I wish I could narrow it down to just one rom which I first started experiencing it in Vanir. However, this has basically been in every single AOSP rom I've tried to use since then. I haven't done dirty flashing. I have used the modem updates through stock, to have it work, only to go back to AOSP of any sort, even GPE (GPE doesn't have the video issues) and not have it work at all. I wish I didn't take up space here, but I tried searching and its like I'm in the twilight zone. Can anybody please give me some idea of why this is happening and how I can fix it? I REALLY don't want to use TW. Even if you could direct me to a thread that fixes this.

Stock Kernels that come with any of the roms. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
I'm curious, what launcher do you use? I've noticed with KK launcher (the one from play store) the flickering. Its bad to the point of not being useable but every other launcher works great without any flickering at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] crisp714:
I use Nova Launcher, the flickering I have is like a straight up video problem that you can see when things are transition... like the notification shade, or the slide out menu in google music where it gets super pixelated in the top right. . It's pretty awful.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Hmm OK. That's weird. Mine looks like its constantly refreshing. Nova works fine for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Parkourkid93:
Did you try increasing your GPU MHz?, usually kernels default profiles lowers the GPU MHz for battery saving purposes, which can cause flickering according to what types of features you turn on, it used to be a problem for me when I used Hover on PA
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] kipue:
Hi, this have been there for longer than a few weeks, it's just very noticeable lately with Hover particularly.

It comes from (so I understand) from the newer drivers used in the AOSP roms. You can only mitigate it (it nearly disapears completely) by increasing the minimum CPU speed, but I think it'll always be there until something is done with those GPU...I stopped using Hover for now :)

On another note, I noticed that floating windows do not work here in Vanir, is it a known bug? Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] trein91:
Trying this out. What's the difference between Vanir and Commotio? Did a simple google search, they're both from the same team somehow?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Train88:
Framework is themed differently, and I think commotio has a slightly different feature list.

Team BlackOut... or Back Out
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] trein91:
Yeah tried both. Commotio has a black theme look to it.

Btw, can you add "Date" to the status bar, next to the clock as well? Is it possible to have the default recent ram bar? With 3 colours denoting the different types.

Also, why can't I edit the 3 animation speeds? -.-
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
So I been noticing more dead spots then normal when using this ROM. Which sucks. The issue seams to be when switching to a 3g or slower area. My apns are correct I'm on uscc. It will go from LTE to roaming OK. But if I'm not in a roaming area and there's no LTE tower I won't get a connection.

Cleared data on dialer also. No change
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Have you tried a different radio version?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] blackmeth:
Ya I tried nd1 mk2 and nae all the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] R4NDR01D:
LOVING THIS ROM!

I had totally forgot about Vanir (so hard to find on the VZW S4 forums!) and I've been on Carbon for 6 months now. Vanir seems to be FASTER, takes up LESS SPACE, and battery life is SUPERB (especially when running Ktoonz Kernel!). Any way just came to share the love. Great stuff, keep it up.

No issues except Google Camera crashes after processing a Blur picture. Worked fine on Carbon right before installing Vanir, only reason I say it's a Vanir issue, but it could be numerous other things I'm sure.

Again, KEEP IT UP. :good:

Is there a newer radio? I have MF9 on my S4. Trying to figure out why I am not getting signal like I should be and dropped calls in the a strong signal area.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] mrtruckincowboy:
Never heard of that radio i use mk2 works best for me
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] b4u2:
Maybe that is why I am having problems. The baseband reads L720VPUAMF9

Do you have the link for radios? I am having a hard time finding it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] HPferoxCraft:
MF9 is pre-mja/mk2/nae. It's also pre Knox so you may want to keep MF9 as your bootloader and just Odin the mk2 or nae modem. That should keep you Knox free.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] b4u2:
ok I updated radio via Odin and it reads the newer baseband L720VPUFNAE everything seemed ok. Calls will not let me answer. If it does allow me to hit answer there is no sound. Phone does not ring. Not sure I get any sounds out of it actually. I can send and receive texts just fine. I cannot make a call either, it acts like it will call then screen goes black. After a few seconds it acts like it's ringing but no sound.

The radios linked in the post above are for Verizon. I am on Ting/Sprint and believe I have that version installed.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] angiest:
A week or two ago I flashed the radio only using Odin and had the same symptom. After doing a lot of reading, I found this to be fairly common. The fix was to Odin the NAE firmware (I went the full factory image with Knox. It may be possible to use one of the de-Knoxified firmwares)
