I am not having any issues with the sickness v2 but i would like to upgrade the radio and modem the only thing is that i would hate to go to 4.4.4 and not be able to use the sickness anymore thats why i asked If I run the rom on this page can I still revert to 4.4.2? And keep the modem and radio update.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

But can you keep the modem and radio update or do you have to go back to the old bootloader or nb4 modem?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
There is a sickness 4.4.4..

This is a very good ROM if you just want a stock look and feel

Keep them. You can't downgrade bootloader or modem once you've taken the full update
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
After nandroid back to NB4 on mdl bootloader I noticed that the better NH7 modem stuck. I ran my old NB4 for a while then decided to go with NH7 upgrade.

Have have superior radio signal and great battery life. I am completely debloated using Rom toolbox pro. Great stability with no issues whatsoever.

ShinySide has done a great job on his Rom and look forward to going back to it but for now will stick with this setup.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boomerxyz:
I am using your (ShinySide) rom from the OP and have made no modifications, other than get rid of the CIQ apps. I definetly can't send MMS over wifi calling. It just says "sending" then it fails. I also can't receive MMS messages while in wifi calling. I turn off wifi calling and the MMS goes right through. I only bring up the HispAsian Blackout rom becasue there was a similar reference to this problem in that forum and I think he's using ShinySide's base. Bad flash maybe?

Update: Reflashed and had the same problem. Went back to stock nh7, rerooted, then reflashed and I can now send MMS over wifi calling. Not sure what the problem was.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boni7010:
... hellooooouuuuu...

I am still asking about if there its another way to flash the modem ? because I cant use Odin for my cell, my pc and all my pcs ( 3 ) don't recognize the cell for nothing !!!...:crying:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] chispas109:
Even with the latest samsung drivers installed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boni7010:
Yes...even with latest Samsung drivers... I search in google and fond a webpage of microsoft related to this problem and the only fix maybe its formatong the pc and reinstall the Windows again...for me its a pain do that, so I cant format my Windows system only to get my cell recognise it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Did you try using different cables?

Try a reboot while phone is plugged into USB port on computer. .

ShinySide: (1) Have you heard of a hack or progresses towards a hack for unrestricted tethering / wifi hotspot for the nh7 roms? (2) Is it possible to downgrade back to nb4 via odin or are we locked into nh7 if we flashed the nh7 bootloader?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
1. Hack for tethering has been done.

2. No downgrade

Battery life on NH7 sucks bad. Not this roms fault it's just the os and modem.

Anyone can make a suggestion on which version to downgrade for best battery life?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
Something must be borked on your install. My battery life has been excellent on NH7 with no issues whatsoever. Share your install info so you can get some help, there are a whole bunch of people running NH7 in stock /rooted stock /custom rooted roms and they are happy.

I know this might sound dumb but is this the stock rom rooted, deodexed, knockless and Untouch meaning it still has the tmobile and samsung bloat or does it have that removed?

I can't get wifi to work even if i flash the kernel. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXchrizhurtyXx:
You need to flash the modem from what I've heard.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] hella356:
Does this ROM involve changing the bootloader? I'm still on a 4.2.2 ROM and if this one isn't my cup of tea, I'd like to be able to revert back.

Great to see some further development here!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] epsix:
I did flash the new modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Bootloaders aren't in ROMs. You shouldn't need it tho.

Did you double flash them with Odin with auto reboot unchecked and pull the battery for reboot?

Also since you flashed the permissive boot.img , in which since I unpacked it, it may cause you to have to change ro.securestorage to false in the build prop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] hella356:
Thanks! I'll give it a go this weekend.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] epsix:
Yes, i flash the modem 2 x with uoto reboot uncheck. Just check my build.prop ro.securestorage=true should i change it ti false?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Yea see if it helps
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 14u2c:
Hey I'm just getting back in the rom game I flash this and got bootloop should I flash the kernel first.. thanks

This is one of those roms where we wished that it had the sickness touch before he ch

Great work and a nice cherry rom. . .

Could be better if we did not have to make the extra step to Odin the rom where other release made this step transparent to the end users.

This is one of those roms where we wished that it had the sickness touch before he checked out...

Nice 4.4.4 and thanks a bunch!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Vasaeleth:
Will flashing the LTE modem cause sound issues like with 4.3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Im so confused on this part.....Odin what?

Apparently still does cause it.

Okay so I like how theres like 90 downloads of the permissive kernel alone and only one person actually realized its not setting to permissive and hes a xda "noob" and cant even post in this section because he just made an account recently Haha

Anyways, when I did the permissive edit, i did it the same as in 4.3 and 4.4.2 in the init.rc assuming it'd be good to go. Apparently it wasnt and its still enforcing. I need someone to flash this, and check in settings to see if it is in fact on permissive now because I really dont feel like making a back up and going back to touchwiz from Nameless just to see.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
It still has all the bloat except Knox but considering its rooted, you can remove anything you want
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] det0xx:
[MENTION=4405914]kaseykrehbiel[/MENTION] is there list of what i can or cant remove?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
No, you just have to install the ROM and if there's something (an app) you don't like, you can use a file manager (I use root browser) and go to /system/app and delete it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] det0xx:
!

alright i was just curious to know if tere was a system app not to delete. THanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaseykrehbiel:
In practice, I probably wouldn't delete it. I'd just rename the .apk file to .apx or something. I don't mess around much with the system apps, just the ones I see in the app drawer that I don't want there. You can always take a backup and experiment though. The worst that could happen is you could spend 15 minutes restoring a backup. :)

Odin 4.4.4 un-rooted stock firmware w/complete format of all memory + cards

Rooted phone via Odin

Flashed latest TWRP recovery 2.8.0.1

done

I then installed this version with same battery life

Battery drains the same amount in two different flashes of NH7.

Initially, I ran full stock un-rooted after firmware flash to see if all was ok, but battery drain sucked full stock too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
I have ran both shinyside and stock /rooted roms nh7 with same results, great battery life and full functionality, you can be getting incomplete file or build prop flashing if you don't flash twice with battery pull.

That's why shiny instructs to do a battery pull and not let it reboot by itself.

Try reflashing twice, i'll bet it works.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Try twrp or a different kernel. No Odin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boomerxyz:
I have found the battery life a bit less than 4.4.2, maybe like 20% less. I also discovered that, for whatever reason, my clock/weather app widget was using a significant amount of battery life, right under display and above android system. I went with a different weather/clock widget. Also, the Greenify app helps a bit too, though it prevents apps from actively updating which can be annoying. I was able to get through the whole day without charging with 4.4.2, but now I have to plug it in a few hours before bed. Oh well.... the price of staying on the bleeding edge, I guess.

ShinySide: Is this the unrestricted tethering mod you are refering to a few posts back (here)?

Say Sickness,

An HOnest question. . .

But statistically you have many S4 dev roms out there, more than 4 on this SamSung Model S4 alone.

I want to know how do you balance the time for updates and creating innovations for your followers to maintain the updates or similar enhancements along the software android platform updates along the similar hand held devices?

Where are these enhancements coming form?

Where are these Tweaks coming from?

It all starts from a drop or a leak.. . . . .

Where you share how you got into the patch management development cycle of these hand held hardware for the end users such as myself?

Thanks for your continued development and support . .

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
First, I apologize [MENTION=5580710]ShinySide[/MENTION] for answering this in your thread.

To answer your questions.....for one I have been doing this for a while now, and I type pretty fast.

Enhancements? You mean mods? Almost all mods can be used on all phones with a little adjustment to the code.

That goes the same for tweaks and such.

Mods and tweaks per say are all over Google. I use some, modify if necessary. Or use my own.

The only drop I use is Official T-Mobile crap. That goes for S5 stuff as well.

Hope this answers your questions.

Again, sorry [MENTION=5580710]ShinySide[/MENTION].

Honestly not sure. I've only seen att users have issues with data/signal.

Wifi should work after changing/flashing the build prop and flashing the modem.bin (not the non-hlos)

I tried these instructions posted by a member earlier and worked perfectly (post #350 by HTCMDA):

Having Trouble With Wi-Fi and or No Data Working??

Here's what I did.

*I have the MDL bootloader*

Coming from a 4.4.2 TW ROM:

Flash the NH7 Modem.bin using odin, Files can be found in the OP of this thread ([Stock/Base] 4.4.4 NH7 Rooted-Deodexed-Knoxless [Flashable])

(note I flashed the modem twice in a row)

restart your phone then check to see if your baseband is now the NH7 version

If your baseband is now NH7, keep reading. If not flash it until it is.

Next, Boot into your recovery (I have TWRP)

Do a factory reset

Flash the ROM, File can be found in the OP of this thread[Stock/Base] 4.4.4 NH7 Rooted-Deodexed-Knoxless [Flashable])

don't reboot

Flash the kernel from Shinyside's Hispasian thread (http://xdaforums.com/gala...tv0-1-t2879397)

don't reboot

Flash the edited buildprop found in this post (http://xdaforums.com/show...2&postcount=82)

wipe cache/dalvik

Reboot phone

eat some bbq and chill while the phone does its setup thing...

hope this helps someone out.

Need a little help here - I currently have the Infamous 9.0 (Android 4.3) ROM and the MK2 baseband. Trying to figure out the process to install stock rooted 4.4.4.

Is this the right process?

1. Wipe & flash stock ROM from post #1

2. Flash stock kernel from post #1

3. Flash NH7 modem in Odin

Is that it? Other steps I've seen mentioned in this thread are flashing Official Firmware, updating bootloader, flashing a buildprop, and flashing the NON-HLOS file. Should I do any of that?

Thanks for any help - I'm about to give the phone to my wife & want it to be rooted but as stable as possible, which is why I'm planning on the stock ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
Really suggest just flashing the complete firmware and avoid all the bs.

Flash firmware

Flash recovery

Flash rom

Flash kernel and build prop if wanted

Where can I get the firmware? And this requires re-rooting the phone, right?

If you flash the kernel or if you reboot and find your phone forgetting wifi passwords, may need to flash the build prop or edit the line

ro.securestorage=true to false
