Let me know if anyone likes to use androse Launcher. I can set it as an option.. If not, I'll leave it out, but if folks want a little bit of a windows mobile feel, that's the launcher to use..

Help with sprint voicemail

I know you have put the sprint vm apk on some of your roms.

Can you give me any advice on how to add it to aicp rom. I have apk and installed it but it will not show any new voicemail

Thanks

Toggles

I really like this ROM, it is very stable and fast with many more options than I could ever use. One of them is the Toggles function in the drop down menu. Can anyone tell me how to disable it/make it not show? Last thing: can anyone tell me what the setting is in order to have an incoming call show up at least partially on the screen? As things are, it only shows in the status bar. TIA...
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
Hi GQ, if you have any ROM installed on your device with it working correctly, then try backing up with titanium backup, then restoring on the AiCP build you want. You might have to be sure you convert it to a user app with titanium first, then back up. If that doesn't work, i'm pretty sure I have included that app in the customized AiCP build posted in my OP.

Also, you are on sprint, correct?

Sorry, I didn't make it clear, I'm on your Mahdi ROM. Anyways, I figured it out, it's the Smart Booster app. I froze it. Hey, since you've obviously run them all: it appears as though most ROMs in the last few months at least occasionally have the bug where the screen stays black during a call until you start pressing buttons. Do you know of any of the recent ones that clearly do not? I'm seriously thinking about going back to your 6/22 C-ROM. When I really look at it, it's probably the most stable AOSP ROM I have ever run.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] gq3856:
Thanks a lot really appreciate it
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
Hey wb, for the smart booster app, you should be able to remove it by either using titanium backup to uninstall, or you can navigate to the system/app folder and just delete the apk for it. I know how you feel when you figure out an app that in at playing nice but its installed as a system app.. The one good thing about my builds and the system apps/tools I include is that since none of them are core apps, they can all get removed without causing anything else to crash. (Like if you remove the phone app or something, that will most likely cause other apps to fc, this would be considered a soft brick)

As for the black screen issue, I absolutely hate that bug, I also deal with it and it is the most annoying bug that is affecting my builds.. If I knew what was causing that, I would for sure fix it.. I thought maybe it was the kt kernel..

Are you on the v2.9 Final Mahdi?

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
What error and what recovery are you using? I never tested the official AiCP 10/4 build so is it possible that its the build itself? I also processed the build just prior to the 10/4 (I think its 9/30) and I can post the link for it if you want to try that one. I just have to double check if I included the VTT app..

I actually switched to your stable Carbon ROM and so far I have not had the black screen bug. If I do though I will likely go back to the 6/22 C ROM, that one was the best AOSP I've ever used. Seems odd that progression is regression?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
It is a little odd, not uncommon though.. I still use the 8/3 carbon, it works the best for me. I have noticed this ever since I've been a flashaholic. I would try a build of a ROM that tons of folks run great, but I would have an issue installing or getting it stable.. And then there are builds I have tried that some folks say didn't work for them, but ran great on my device.. I think it has to do with slight differences with hardware components..

Still no luck on the voicemail apk it's installed but not picking up on any of my voicemails
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
I have a feeling that it has to do with that 10/4 AiCP build itself..(maybe that has something to do with the build being stamped.. ,)

I agree, i'm gonna take it down from my thread too

ok, one more thing for you to try. I can either send it to you, or you need to back up the apk file for that app. Then uninstall the app. Reboot, then manually install the apk. Let me know if you need the link and if you have errors trying to manually install. This should work 100%. It will reinstall as a regular user app and maybe that is what will fix it for you.

Sure thing. You just want to be sure that you remove the app that is currently installed. It is set as a system app so you will need to either use titanium backup or equivalent or manually delete the apk file from the system/app folder.

Download:

Sprint VTT from my dropbox

Also, remember that the VTT is a paid service so when you install it you should have 30 days for free but you'd need to subscribe in order for it to continue to work. That might be what you're running into..

Thanks for everything still not working though. I know the service is free for 30 days. But i do not get any voice-mail showing up at all. After installing it states provisioning done. I get a text to message that it's working. And sometime even get a message after getting a b voice mail that it I a downloading new voice-mail but it never completes. Tried to go back to a tw room and everything worked perfectly.

I'm all out of ideas guess I'm giving up for now unless anyone has any other suggestions.

Thanks again for everything.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] wbexpress:
Nuts. I did get the black screen bug, so I tried the 8/3 Carbon like you suggested but that had it as well. I then flashed your C-ROM 6/22 and it booted fine but the rotation was borked. So, I flashed the 7/12 KT kernel and it fixed it, and, no black screen bug. It's not like life and death, but I just don't get why I have to go back to a 5 month ago ROM to get complete stability. TW is out of the question. I hope it goes away with 5.0.

Hi GQ, I am not sure why that would happen on your device. It works on mine (but I don't use it) maybe I just leave it out of future builds.. Not sure if I am the one to be able to figure that one out..

Quiet hours has a future which sends out auto reply text during quiet hours to let people know you are unavailable. Those text are not being sent out. Think it might be a problem with aicp and jot your rom. Wish there was a way to pull it out of slim rom because that one woks perfectly

If it works in slim, I wonder if its an apk I can pull from slim and add it to my custom builds.. Any way you can find out if its an apk I can pull? I will see too, but if you know, let me know and I will try and make it work for you

I'm not sure I would be able to integrate that function into my customized carbon build.. Only just because I'm not building any of these roms,, all I do is change and add a few things then rezip, I don't change any of the baked in or system functions. Sorry bout that bro, I wish I had a box that I was able to build, but not at the moment..

sj
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
One thing I wanted to post about was when you find no matter what rom you use, eventually you start getting sluggish and run out of space..

This is what I do:

Two options for me. First, I backup all music, photos, videos, docs and files from my internal SD card to my external. Then I update my titanium backups so they are current and I make a current nandroid backup. When that is done, I boot into recovery, wipe data for clean install, then I format the media partition for the internal SD. Restore nandroid I just made and after boot, everything is snappier and you have extra room again.

If that is not enough or doesn't accomplish the set goal, then the next thing to do is after you backup like in the first option, you then plug into PC and do a full restore with Odin, add custom recovery again, reflash current recovery if needed, then just restored latest nandroid.

This process will get you back to where you want to be 99% of the time and should not take more than 2 hours if you have to do both options.

You will need to convert Mega back to a user app with titanium backup. (Or equivalent). There may be a few of the extras that I add that also need this done. But they will work correctly after that.

Sprint VTT voicemail app is included, you might need to remove this app if you are either not on Sprint, or if you do not use it

I gave a try and while it did boot the display was so small I had to use a magnifying glass to read the font. so of course after rebooting twice with no change I did not run the setup wizard. Thanks for you efforts though.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sjsharksfan420:
Hi jhoon, yes, I adjusted the DPI to 110, but I agree, too small, I will change that and upload again. The DPI can get adjusted through ROM toolbox or by just editing your build.prop file..

Thank you for the feedback for sure. This is exactly what I need to know so I can make it more suitable for the average user as their daily. Myself along with my group of testers all prefer the lower DPI but we can adjust it. If higher DPI is better for the average user, then I will adjust it for you. I went from 110 to 135. It will still be in tablet ui but it will be larger so you shouldn't need a magnifying glass.. ;)
