Sharpie what are you bootloaders/baseband at? did u use my upgrade thread or OTA or another method? and finally what themes/non essential apps/system apps and bootanim did you choose? jk I dont need all the apps n bootanim but the first 2 qs are needed for infomation. butt no reason it shouldnt boot up maybe try again with a different theme I have had a few cases where goofy setups (mixmatching the themes) results in FCs but normally only with non stock system files... or ported to our system files like the xperia apps FCing with a setup half domination half S5. try restarting to stock recovery immediately after install and do a factory data reset. you'll wipe all the extras but it will bootup. One other thing to try would be installing Safestrap with SELinux Permissive app enabled (theres no need to install busybox its auto installed) just Towelroot v3, SELnux and then Safestrap more info can be found in my EZ upgrade thread
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Not going to lie, after about an hour of messing with it she had an S4 and an attitude problem. I decided to ODIN back to stock and install Eclipse. No hard feelings. Shes up and running and thats all she cares about. "If" she EVER lets me touch her phone again I'll try your suggestions lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
a test build go ahead but i had to resume uploading the file so im doubting... either way i redid it and added some things v6 is what im running now... uploading in 20min

Sweet.

Is anyone else having the gps issue or just me? Why do we need to flash the signal mod? Is it just for the signal bars?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtfchuck:
Yep, found it in Chaos RomControl. It was very late when I flashed it and I had overlooked it in settings panel. Indeed, you are correct about the updates. Can you link me to alliance manager? I will test and post results. TIA

Disregard again, I believe I found it here. ;)

Please see my previous post. I installed Alliance Manager .apk but I am not seeing how to update Wanam Xposed with the app.

I can see and download the update in "Chaos RomControl/Xposed Mods/Xposed Installer/Download/update available/2.9.8 -> 2.9.9 but it will not install.

Error * App not installed. An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed.

Any clue will be appreciated.

For some reason greenify will not accept my "pro" key to enable experimental features. I had purchased it prior to installing Chaos ROM.

GPS is messed up

how did you get the gps working? im running the i545oyufnc5 baseband btw. currently i get no satellites on the gps testing apps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
Hey gigilie did you up v6? I don't see it on AFH

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

What signal mod ? The one I tried worked till I tried to use Xposed and it bootloooped
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bonfire62:
people were talking about this one a few pages back

S4_Echoev26_S5MODPART2_VZW_070714

not sure what its for. I flashed the signal bar mod and they're working, just no gps still :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
Is that the signal mod file name? The jkruse one is the one that loops. Maybe I'll try it again when I get bored
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bryannn29:
So using this build.prop should fix the issue with GPS? If so do we have to use this specific build prop or is there way to modify our existing build.prop file to fix the GPS problem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
Did you flash the NC5 modules?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bryannn29:
Yes I did. But I believe this problem isn't caused by the ROM itself because the issue persists on Echoe ROM as well. GPS works on Eclipse ROM though so I'm a little lost on how to troubleshoot this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mfun89:
Does anyone have the statusbar mod that doesn't cause a bootloop?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
Ya I'd like one of those too ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshnat:
I'm getting Phone app FC upon boot. I'm on NC5 firmware and bootloader. I've wiped everything multiple times, both in SS and the native recovery. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbcrumb:
Keyguard FC

I am on MDK bootloader and install no matter what options I choose on boot I get Keyguard stopped FC messages that will not go away any idea why? I really wanted to try this out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Hi gigilie

I'm running NC5 with SS 3.72....

SHoudl we be using v2 in the opening post, or v5 from ur site?

Which build would be best for me? (I understand this will need to be on stock slot)

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
5 won't flash far as I can tell
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Is there a v3 or v4 thats recommended?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
Just use the one in the op.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Thanks...

I saw a few posts back, that you were able to get the gps working?

Can you advise how you did that?

Here is the process I was planning on using...are all these steps necessary?

- DO a full wipe

- flash ROM

- Flash the wifi-fix (gogolies-wififix-VZW-FN2-NC2-w-modules-SS)

- Flash SUpersu

- Boot into ROM

- Boot into SS

- Flash the SIgnal Mod (S4_Echoev26_S5MODPART2_VZW_070714)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:

Will test the second I get home. Give me 30 min
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] R4NDR01D:
Just came off an AOSP ROM, full wipe, clean install, everything looks and works great except the wifi. I cannot toggle it on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
yeah it can. flash modules if in safestrap and then either the .apn zip or manually enter apn settings my friend runs it on his I'll double check but I think its that easy for AT&T
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marbertshere:
cant get into safestrap

I flaahee this ROM w no problems except WiFi. I wanted to flash a fix but I can't get into safestrap anymore! It skips to the boot animation on reboot. I tried installing the ss apk and tried to reboot from there but nothing happens. Any ideas? Also I get phone process fc at start.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bigmew22:
I have twrp so is it a regular flash without modules?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
flash my nc2 wifi fix or modules or reflash your modem with hlos are a few suggestions if your not nc already but i dont really know how to answer that question if you dont give me your system info. bootloader,baseband,any other info
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aknotts415:
Flash this rom booted good just whiped system, data, cache, dalvick then flashed rom then flashed nc2 wifi fix then supersu

rom looks really good gigilie, havent had time to test it yet but it boots and it runnin :o
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Nice....hows GPS?

will flash when I get home
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
that and signals should be working fine. they work on my end. just a side note this includes my superRoot so no need to flash anything supersu related (supersu 2.01 included) and should work by just using the installer only if your on nc2/nc5 for wifi but if your using a different modem or firmware like from a different carrier then you'll need to flash modules or kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
ANyone know how battery life is compared to Hyperd?

ALso, ARe there screen shots available of how this looks? I went to the Main chaos site...but was curious if it looks similiar...

Thanks!

Emojis aren't functioning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Seemed to work well I must say...

I still had to flash fix for wifi. ..but I'm liking the smoothness.

Silly question. I understand this is a port. But what does that mean? Is the base off of stock?

Thanks for the hard work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aknotts415:
It just means gigilie ported it from a rom designed for a phone with an unlocked bootloader to work with safestrap. Gigilie is the master of ports lol:cowboy:

Anyone know hot to fix emojis? I love this rom thats all that's holding me back really I'm:confused: only getting half of the emojis lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
heh thanks bro!

yeah a port is just making something work on a device or phone it wasnt originally ment for. literally everything in terms of software is a port or has been ported in some way or another. but without going into details i made it a verizon compatible ROM based off the international stock ROM NGx

what keyboard are these emojis associated with? because I didnt remove anything like that as far as I know depending on what theme your using for the board might matter... or is it the same no matter what keyboard? theres gotta be something in the playstore for this or no?

Anyone having a problem the phone forcing close because "Contacts has stopped working"?

I can open contacts and dial from there but can not dial from phone.

I checked full screen caller when setup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aknotts415:
Gigilie it was the kitkat black domination themes half of the icons were question marks in hangouts and in messages it was white smilies
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marbertshere:
I don't know if this has been mentioned but a lot of the selections in the install process are incorrectly labeled or don't match the list in the OP. For example, I would select the AOSP in call screen but it would give me TouchWiz. Love the ability to customize the install options though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aknotts415:
Gigilie heres what it looks like i tried a different keyboard in messages it looks the same in hangouts but there its white smilies
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fatapia:
great ROM, only "bug" I have is that I can not update any of the modules, or install xposed through a file explorer to get the app on the drawer rather than digging through settings to find it. Says there is a conflicting package with the same signature, so I have to manually delete and then install to update which is a bit much for some apps/modules. Just a heads up. Great work!

edit 1:

also can't get aosp email to sync with exchange, but it seems to be an issue with the app and not your work from what I've read so far

edit 2:

figured it out from a google bug thread, aosp email required i put the domain and adjust the default server's url. no clue why it wouldn't accept the username@blah.bleh format but that's not on you. aosp email does work with exchange
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Hey guys

Is there a way to change the look of the quick settings toggles?

I was using gravity box, but doesnt seem to affect it.

Wanam I was able to add more, but was hoping to change the look and feel of it...

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cbmggm:
You can try Trueicon Toggles; flash in Recovery.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marbertshere:
I used an app called Notification Toggle to add extra toggles to the notification area.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] howellcp:
How do I edit the amount of characters allowed in the signature section of the exchange app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
oooooooh!!!!

I didn't think it was possible to do this via flash...!

Do you know of others that can be used?

Do you know if its possible to extract these from other ROMs?

Thanks in advance!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Haligan:
Anyone else have this problem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cbmggm:
It works with both MDK & SS users. Make a Nandroid just in case. Wipe Caches, flash in Recovery and reboot. Takes about 5 minutes.

Don't forget the hit "Thanks" if I helped you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Nice!

Do you know of a way to disable the stock toggles from showing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] huntinwabbits:
Having an issue sending MMS. I can receive pictures but when I try to send them it gives me an invalid address error. This happens regardless or wifi or not. Any ideas?

Edit: so it looks like a 3rd party sms like GO SMS works. Not sure how my stock sms is bad

Edit2: I took another stock Samsung sms app and placed it in system/app and renamed to secmms.apk problem is solved now for anyone who may have this issue in the future
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marbertshere:
Yeah i was getting that problem. Can't remember if it was contacts or Phone that would always go.

---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 AM ----------

Not sure, sorry. Try Wanam Xposed module.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
check in my Purified VZW thread theres links to a bunch of them I did all will flash over any chaos setup :)

Question about switching between roms and Titanium Backup. I am running Eclipse right now and have done a Ti backup (apps+system data) saved on the device storage. If I install Chaos and install Ti, do I run Restore missing apps with data? or Restore all apps with data?

The reason I ask is because I have installed Chaos before and had a problem with the phone force closing. And I want to be able to restore if I can't get the problem fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
this would be a good example of when to use that TB Fixer App thats floating around (might even have included it in Chaos but it will fix the selinux permissive settings so you wont get the FC errors. search XDA for more info.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] docluv01:
Hey man, WHen I go from ROM to ROM, I typically do restore missing apps with data.

BUT, I deselect all, then go down the line, and check off apps only, and make sure to uncheck all teh system stuff.

My assumption is that being Contacts is a system app, it won't even show up as a missing app in Titanium when you go to restore.

To play it safe, I usually do like 20 apps at a time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Silassi1:
Fast reboot from the power menu does not work...for me at least.. Anyone else? As well as any restart systemui scripts. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Nice ROM over all!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marbertshere:
Don't restore any backed up system apps, just user apps. I myself restore the apps only, not apps + data. I did this once and had issues. You might not have any problems if you do restore data but I like to play it safe.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] seal:
Is it possible to upgrade a Jasjar's Rom from the SD Card??? as I broke the USB Port so I can no longer upgrade the normal way, the phone was replaced under warranty but I still have the original phone that I would like to use for trying new roms. Any way of upgrading with out using usb port???
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] seal:
Please anyone

Hi all,

Some one must know the answer to this, I really want to use my Jasjar and as I said the usb connector is broken. So is it possible to upgrade by SD card or any other way.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Pyrojester:
No. Thats the simple answer. I think PPC techs offer a repair for $60 thought, which seems reasonable. Its on the forum somewhere.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] soumen.sam:
I don’t know about card in deep technically but all I learned so far, generally cards these days have very long life span, at least average 10 years, unless physically damaged or any uncommon technical issues.

I too concerned about this too earlier but now technology is so fast upgrading you shouldn’t worry about its life span. Technically what I know its life span also depends on it read and writings like you said and even if your car had heavy use then there is no point to formatting it frequently. Card is not like windows which creates junk files by time. Deleting and formatting does the same thing and both will free up same space if you delete all, where formatting read or write more data than deleting. So formatting frequently could reduce its life but that could be unnoticeable. The same way defragmenting, shredding also reduces its life. But shredding is good if I lost it any other couldn’t restores any private files.

So I think there have no logic to format it frequently to keep it healthy, unless its corrupted.

By technology is so fast upgrading what I mean is like, few years back I brought a new phone and brought the best card at that time, it was Samsung 32GB class 6. It was best on the market during that time. But then class 10, pro, plus released. Then when I got note 3 I had already a 32 GB card but I brought a class 10 pro one due to the HD recording. So after 5 years from now even if this card is working I will still have to buy a new one, as there will be far better technically upgraded one. I hope I make sense.

And I too use Internal memory very less, as loads on internal memory make the phone slower.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] iunlock:
Thanks for the reply. I agree that with a decent name brand of a card, the life expectancy shouldn't be too much of a worry. My experience with SanDisk has been pretty poor in that I don't think they make cards with good quality material. As mentioned, the structural integrity is very weak. Their older cards were better. The newer ones in my opinion and from my experience have to be treated with a mentality of 5 years ago, because they do wear noticeably.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] marquis.hagetaka:
I know that feel of losing data, I have had 3 64 GB SanDisk cards die since January - right now I am using a 8GB. sad n true:eek:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] iunlock:
Wow, sorry to hear. That sucks. Then again, you've verified my point even further about how crappy SanDisk cards have become.

Let your next card be a Samsung. I'm weeding out my stock of cards, heck I've given some away already.

Here's the best: Samsung 64GB PRO Micro SDXC | Class 10 Memory Card (MB-MG64DA/AM)

I use it in my Canon and it's extremely fast.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] marquis.hagetaka:
That Samsung card sounds impressive, just not ready to spend any more monies on getting one right now.

off subject are you still in Honolulu..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] soumen.sam:
I never used any SanDisk card on phone, only Samsung cards so I’ve no personal experience and I’ve seen many user complains about its compatibility and issues on Samsung device. However I’ve been using a SanDisk high-speed MMC card on my Nikon SLR over last 5 years and still its performing great.

I believe Samsung cards works great in Samsung devices. So far only one card got damaged many years back and that was a stock Nokia card.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
I currently have a 64gb sandisk class 10 in my phone I always used sandisk and never had a issue. I can't say the same for kingston. I found out it doesn't mess up when you unmount it when taking it out. I never did that before and they got messed up even if it did get messed up warranty is always there.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Rickdaddy:
currently using the sandisk extreme plus 64gb card with no issues whatsoever. will update this thread once it crap out on me (it probably will in about 6 months) and how the warranty process goes.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Nianfur:
I had a 32Gb Sandisk Extreme die in my Galaxy Note 3 while recording 4k video on to it.

Without a compatibility list and guarantee from Samsung, I am reluctant to buy another high end microsd card.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] catman51:
I am sick of these SD Cards. In my Galaxy S3, the thing would ocassionally take a dump and have to be reformatted.

Now I just restarted the Note 3, and boom, card took a dump.

I think I'm going to just live without.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
Sandisk has always been reliable for me, apparently there are only 4-5 chip manufacture, and majority of a-data's card are rebadged from sandisk, same goes with transcends, whiles kingston are with toshiba, and PNY is a mix of sandisk and toshiba.

For data recovery and/or SD card repair, had anyone given Spin Rite a try?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BodenM:
I've been using a UHS-I 16GB Team card in my phone, been pretty reliable so far and gets pretty quick read/write speeds. Also been using a 32GB UHS-I Samsung card in my Sony NEX-5T camera, also been having no issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] minoch:
Just had my first Warranty experience with SanDisk. My 64 Gig SanDisk Ultra had crapped out by not allowing any write cycle this would not allow for deleting files or format or any changes to card. After a brief chat session on the SanDisk website I had my RMA and got emailed a label to print. My old card was off to SanDisk. 10 days later the new card arrived. This was a good warranty experience. Hope the new card will have more writes.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Anggrian:
I'm glad I'm not alone on this. I have my first 64GB microSD on Jan last year. I chose Sandisk because I believe many of tech experts favor them over every other brand. At the time I wasn't at all concerned about its lifespan because I am using it for such a simple task like music storage. By the end of Dec last year, the card refuses to write and format. Folks at Sandisk forum suggested to use SDFormatter, however if you get "write protected" error, your card is not repairable, they say.

I was lucky to get a new one so close to the end of my one-year warranty. But seeing Sandisk cards are getting less reliable these days, I might give Samsung a try if my Sandisk fails again.

Quick question, though: where else does Samsung evo and pro differs beside speed? Does pro have longer lifespan?
