Flashed the both and modem.bin by itself and the NON-HLOS... now I'm having issues making and receiving calls. Screen turns black and lags for a few seconds before the call screen appears, but can't hear other person. :(

Reverted back to NB4 and reinstalled CM11 and the issue is still occuring. Tried reflashing NH7 and no dice. Mobile data and Wifi work fine regardless if I'm on NB4 or NH7. Anybody experience this before? Seems like flashing the NON-HLOS file made things screwy?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Revert your non-hlos or if you flashed the whole firmware bootloader might not of flashed so double flash the firmware without booting the phone to android

Everytime i try to flash twpr fails to open the zip, checked the md5 they match so cant be a bad download, what's the deal?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Try to open the zip with 7Zip. If you can't it's a bad download

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
Wierd, my wife did ota from tmobile to 4.4.4 it killed her wifi, i rooted the phone, flashed roms and wifi worked but the roms froze on lock screen(all of them) so i flashed this one no freezing but killed wifi again, i edited the build prop, i used 2 diffrent kernels, bootloader, pda, and baseband match(used phone info to check) what could it be ? Also is there a way to downgrade to 4.4.2? I gave her my s4 so im stuck with this one, and resetting the phone turns on wifi sometimes but turns off after a while and when trying to turn on the on button is greyed out and then slides off. Sorry for the wall of text but just want to get this fixed :(.

Bluetooth wont turn either when wifi wont, are they connected??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
I would use Odin and relflash the NH7 firmware. Then see if the problem persist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
Can you point me to some instructions and a download link, thank you :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Get the current NH7 firmware from Sammobile.com.

Flash it with Odin in the pda slot. Let it do its thing. Then go into the stock recovery and do a factory reset.

Reboot. Then see if the problem is still there
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
Awesome will try in a little, will come back with results.

Thank you for your hard work, it really shows in quality.

Quick question - my ChompSMS isn't working, I can receive sms/mms but when I try to send both sms/mms fails. Stock messaging is working perfectly on cell/wifi though. Sidenote- I get better signal than ever.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
No idea. I've never used a 3rd party texting app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
just finished, giving it a go and checking the wifi, now if this does not fix it, is there a way to downgrade?

*Update* Wont even turn on during first use setup lol. I guess that didnt fix it.

Look in /data/ do you see these files at top that begin with a period?

i entered the first data folder i see in root browser, but its empty.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Completely??? Or you mean its missing those files?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
empty, is that because i dont have root access?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Ha I figured you rerooted. Yea youll need root
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfen1086:
Downloading the firmware and the modem now, I have the full stock one on the computer already but theres always rom for something new right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 111ace:
ok gotcha, will do it now, will post when done, thank you for helping me.:D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Are yours the same size as the screen shot?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfen1086:
OK its downloaded, and now my questions are, can I flash a custom ROM, say the sickness or CM? Or will I gave to refladh the total stock 4.4.4 from T mobile first?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
You can flash whatever rom you want
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfen1086:
Thanks, I'm a Sickness minion, and useing Odin to install the stock t mobile 4.4.4 firmware doesn't always work, butvghrir 4.3 and 4.4.2 does. And I NEED 4.4.4 to run the latest and greatest sickness
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
If it doesn't flash right the first time just flash it again, usually the second time works
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Railius:
Hey Guys I'm another user without WiFi, I Come from Insanity ROM NB4, I wanted to flash HispAsian, and saw on the thread a way to update everything from NB4 to NH7 before flashing HispAsian so I did.. I downloaded NH7 Stock Rooted from [MENTION=5580710]ShinySide[/MENTION] and flashed it, then flashed Permissive NH7 and I've double flashed several times the 4.4.4 modem.bin, from Shiny and Insanity, none gave me the wifi :(, I also flashed a zip file from Shiny that he upload on of the pages to set the secure boot to false and no luck.. Note: I Wiped everything before doing all this.

I dont care about the secureboot se linux thing when I boot my phone, I just want to try HispAsian lol fully working ^^ should i Just try to flash the ROM or should I find a solution to solve the WIfi problem before??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Personally Id recommend you update to full NH7. Everyone that has fully updated to NH7 have had zero problems with my 4.4.4 roms and Sickness' 4.4.4 roms. People that havent have to play the game and find the right combo. and have had other issues from lockscreen to wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Probably don't have nh7 bootloader, that's why your having problems with wifi

Bootloader

Guys,

First off, thanks [MENTION=5580710]ShinySide[/MENTION] for such great stock rom. By flashing this rom, is the bootloader changed or we have to odin the stock sammobile one? In addition to this, anyone has a torrent download or similar, in addition to the samobile one?

Thanks and keep the great work!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Railius:
Yeah, well at the end I flashed HispAsian and had random reboot but I had wifi, I flashed KTkernel, and everything's fine, BUT I do want to have everything right, I thought that by flashing your Stock ROM rooted I would have updated the bootloader to NH7, So.. what do I have to do?? flash the stock firmware from sammobile??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Thats a first.

But yeah, check the link Pancho posted. Those are the firmwares from sammobile and kies , juts I uploaded them to mega for faster download

Thanks [MENTION=4298060]PanchoPlanet[/MENTION], [MENTION=5580710]ShinySide[/MENTION] !

I followed your advise and upgraded to the full stock firmware from T-Mobile ( Sammobile Mega link ). I was having some weird reboots and application-based user errors and what not. To make a long story short, since I upgraded the boot loader from MDL to NH7, at least so far, the random reboots have disappeared and tethering seems more reliable now. Will continue testing and will report back on the [MENTION=4921688]The Sickness[/MENTION] NH7 ROM thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] drdoombot:
I've tried everything I can think of but I seem to have hit a wall and I'm hoping someone can help me.

I flashed a brand new S4 from T-mobile with Danvdh's GPE Rom. The phone would randomly reboot and had other quirks, so I flashed ShinySide's NH7 Rom. On first boot, everything seemed to be fine, but as I was restoring apps and rebooting to get everything in order, my WiFi disappeared. LTE was intermittent. I found the links for the KitKat radios and flashed both bin files (I tried the combined one and the separate files), but could not get WiFi back. I assumed that it was because I was still running whatever old bootloader the phone came with.

Next, I tried flashing ShinySide's full NH7 firmware (2.5gb!) using Odin. I noticed right away that I lost root and couldn't get it back using the towelroot method, so I Odined chainfire's file. Another thing was that WiFi was not back. Seeing that all my apps were still there, I did a factory reset and WiFi was back! I tried rebooting a few times and WiFi stuck, so I was ecstatic... until today.

Overnight, I seem to have lost WiFi again (and my alarm didn't go off, but I don't know if that's related). At this point, I don't know what to do to get WiFi and keep it. I'm tempted to go back to a GPE Rom, but after flashing the NH7 firmware, it might not work as before.

Any thoughts on what I can do here?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Flash NH7 firmware again and reboot to stock recovery when its finished and factory reset.. Back up what you need because it will also wipe internal SD
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Probably not on nh7 bootloader.

Pp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] williambs:
Make sure you flashed the nh7 bootloader as well as the modem. The WIFI issues were related to mismatched bootloader and modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shemp903:
Does this Rom have the issue where voice calls don't work via network? I'm stock and was wondering if rooting, installing twrp, and flashing this would get rid of that issue I have on stock nh7
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Try flashing just modem first, if that doesn't work try non_holus.bin.

Is this flash able in Mobile Odin? If so does the modem also have to be flashed or is it built into the rom? Thank!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
You don't flash rom zips in Odin. This isn't a firmware. Modem yes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Root:
Modem must match bootloader for mobile Odin, right? Use pc Odin always, just in case. Mobile Odin doesn't always play with safeties off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shemp903:
Hmmm it did not work. Did the battery pull trick and everything. Any other ideas? This problem is ridiculous :confused:!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Flash full NH7 firmware. If that still doesn't work it is most likely a hardware issue, or network related.. no rom will give you this issue..

Edit: you can also give a new sim card a try
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shemp903:
I may have to give a new sim card a try, as flashing nh7 did not help. Wifi-Calling works, which leads me to believe it is not a hardware issue. What do you think though? Hardware maybe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
If you flashed back to stock firmware and still have issues its unlikely software issue, which leads me to think either hardware or network.. Get a new sim and if issue persists, do a warranty claim if you have any, or call T-Mobile to confirm there are no network issues
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] vephotos:
i know its been asked a couple times, and i almost sure on how to flash this but i just want to make sure.

im completely stock on 4.4.4 nh7, ive been having issues with phones calls like some other members have been having. ive done a factory reset and the problem is still there.

so from what i gather

get into recovery/ wipe data/ wipe caches/ flash rom/ reboot/ profit?

my main question is do i have to flash the NH7 kernal and modem even tho im already on stock nh7? and if so do i flash those in odin or recovery?

thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
No need for modem. And kernel is in the rom (completely stock), other kernel is set to permissive for xposed and some other root apps not working/working correctly with kernel set to Enforcing

But yes on the instructions. Updater script formats system for you.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] vephotos:
so ive tried to flash it twice now and its not taking for some odd reason. this is what i get when its installing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Use TWRP. Can't flash anything with stock recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] vephotos:
looks like my bootloader is locked? cant install TWRP went through all the steps with odin and still stock recovery. best way to unlock the bootloader?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Nope not locked. Just don't boot to android. Uncheck auto reboot, flash TWRP, when it's done disconnect, pull battery, put it back in and boot directly to recovery. And reboot from recovery. And should be golden

BAM! thx you good sir!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yellowdie:
Okay, I've been beating my head against the wall for over a week now and I'm done fighting. I upgraded my mother-in-law's M919 form stock 4.2 to Shiney's 4.4 version and her internal storage is broken. Everything I read shows people having problems with write access to the SD card, but I have total access to the SD card but can't write to the internal storage. It seems like my device is treating the external as the internal and the internal as the external. I'm so baffled and confused... Anyone have any thoughts or ideas? I've been researching all I can think of, but no one's solutions have worked (among many, many other things, I did the Kitkat sdcard fixes in /system/etc/permission/platform.xml and it didn't help).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Try formatting it in TWRP. There's also a file system fixer option in TWRP. Blocks could be bad.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yellowdie:
I've done 'format data->yes' and manually wiping 'internal storage' but neither helped. By 'file system fixer' do you mean wipe->advanced->repair/change? I have done that a few times as well. It's ext4 and I have have repaired it there. Is there another way to do it? My last resort that I haven't tried yet is reodining back to stock--I just don't get to work on her phone for very long so I haven't done it yet. Hoping to fix not format. Lol

I am not normally over here in Samsung-land. I live over in the heavenly Nexus world. Venturing into Sammyville makes me sad she didn't buy a Nexus. Lol. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Formatting internal will reformat it to ext4 which can fix some issues. And yes that too.

But I'm not sure bro. No one else has had such issues. I'd try doing the firmware update to nh7. I have a thread in the general sections with the firmware tars hosted on mega for a faster download then sammobiles BS speed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yellowdie:
Thanks, I will reodin it again and start from scratch. I was just hoping to avoid the nuclear option. Lol. Thanks again for the help, and for the well done ROM. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Hi all,

So i was running on wicked v7 and decided to flash straight to this rom. i only flashed the rom, not permissive kernel nor anything else.

I'm stuck on the white screen with "T'mobile 4g LTE" loading. i believe is android 4.2.2

Am I missing something? Please let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Root:
Well if you avoided managing to flash the kernel you could teach us a thing or two. Can we have a few more details on what you did? How you wiped what order you did things.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Hi,

i did the following:

-went to twrp

-wiped: dalvik cache, cache, system, data.

-flashed this rom(only) and it boots then get stuck on tmobile lte whatever message.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
He meant the optional permissive kernel

Wipe caches and data again after you flash and see.

Sometimes, causes there's so much shiz, completely stock roms take a while for first boot to rebuild caches and all
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Hi Shinyside,

Sure thing man, i'm re-installing the rom and the permissive kernel right after. should it take more than 10 minutes after install to boot up?

also a little info just in case i'm still missing something. i came from wicked v7 which is an android 4.2.2 so the phone has whatever updates (radio, and other bell and whistles) up to that time/era. my fear is that i need to upgrade these other things in order to work straight from 4.2.2? correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks in advanced fellas.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Don't have to but might have problems and need the modem.

Honestly, my only advice is update. You're warranty is up anyways if you're worried about Knox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Ok, i just updated them using this file "NH7_modem_NON-HLOS.tar.md5" from one of your post with odin v3.09.

I'm going to give it another try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
You'll need to revert back to mdl Non-hlos. You're gonna have no sound.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
oh ok, thanks for the heads up but the phone still stuck on that tmobile white screen loading. i'll try the mdl file you posted if i manage to get the phone to boot on 4.4.4 and confirm that there is no audio.

Sorry, I was glib earlier. It was a day and dark humor was rampant at work. I let it leak here. Are you still on an earlier bootloader?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
No worries man i know how it is. now bootloader...... where do i check the version? is it when i put it on Odin mode (firmware download)?

I'm currently restoring my nandroid backup for wicked rom v7 till i figure out what's going on.

Still getting stuck on tmobile 4g lte white screen with sound :(. left it like for 30 minutes, never boots to OS.

so i went back to 4.2.2 wicked v7 rom and flash this file and with this file i get no sound lol, so i went back to the previous modem+lte combo i flashed earlier on this thread and it works. no idea man...... but i cant get 4.4.4 to boot to OS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Root:
Go back to your v7 again and get the PhoneInfo app. It'll tell what your bootloader is.

You might as well just update to the full NH7 firmware.. And are you using the latest recovery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Hi,

I'm using twrp 2.6.0.1, im planning to update to 2.8.1.0 or whatever the latest is.

Ok, when u said update to the full NH7 do you mean, untouched NH7? like the official one from tmobile directly? wouldnt that mess up my root? if this is not what you meant please provide me a link to that full nh7 so that i can do it or explain if i'm wrong

Also i have nandroid backups from twp version 2.6.x.x, if i upgrade to 2.8.x.x if something goes wrong when installing a rom, can i go back to those nandroids i made with twrp 2.6.x.x without issues using 2.8.x.x or latest?

Sorry everyone for all this trouble and thanks for your help.

update: never mind about Twrp, I updated it and created a new nandroid backup of the rom that works, just in case. thanks for that! now I still waiting for your response about updating to NH7 full firmware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shemp903:
Hey serio, finally got a new sim card, but the issue is still here. What do you think?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Root:
It's hard to say not to. I think something has changed because people seem to experience a smoother ride when doing so. I broke my original phone a while back and it's the only one I've had that worked perfectly, but this one came with NH7 and I had no problems rooting and installing. I use cmw, so I'm not well versed in twrp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Yes check my threads on my profile for firmware thread. Do a full update to NH7.

Yeah you'd be fine. Version to version works fine. Recovery to recovery doesn't tho. So stick with TWRP and you'll be fine
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] torankusu:
Hi guys,

So it works! after I updated to latest TWRP, re-installed your Rom once again and Voilà! it worked

I didn't install the permissive kernel, what advantages or disadvantages it has over the default one?

I also installed your Modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin, is that all I need to be up to date?

Thanks again fellas. something as simple as an old twrp recovery was the culprit.

What if you're on the knox free bootloader from 4.2.2? I don't wanna lose the holy grail boot loader.

do you still suggest updating to full NH7 firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
The holy grail is only good for 12 months worth of warranty when it comes to samsung other than that it's a security system. You can delete 99%of the Knox bloat after you root.
