** [ROM] Empty [VZW] Galaxy v3.92 [I545VRUFNK1] 1/2** system cannot be backed up

System cannot be backed up via Safestrap after installing empty galaxy v3.92. Safestrap always says "backup complete failed" (in red letters). Did full update to I545VRUFNK1 via directions on this page http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-root-i545vrufnk1-4-4-2-12-1-2014-t2959613. Tried both methods, odin only method and safestrap method. Both worked ok and I am able to back up system via safestrap from here. However as soon as I install empty galaxy v3.92, whether doing a factory reset (via normal recovery or safestrap) or advanced wipe via safestrap or no wipe at all I lose abiltiy to backup system. Tried both Safestrap-JFLTE-3.72-kk-B01 and Safestrap-I545-3.75-KitKat-A03.

I spent hours trying to solve this and got nowhere. I can back up system on stock I545VRUFNK1 no problem but as soon as I install empty galaxy v3.92 via any type of wipe or no wipe at all I can no longer backup system. I can confirm I am on baseband I545VRUFNK1, Android Version 4.4.2 and using I545_NK1_Modules. I have tried every option under the sun seems the problem lies with empty galaxy v3.92.

** [ROM] Empty [VZW] Galaxy v3.92 [I545VRUFNK1] 1/2** system cannot be backed up

Fixed??!!

Went for a ride into the city this afternoon, listened to some Bluetooth music, changed theme in supersu, set correct time zone in safestrap

No major changes made

Decided to give it another go after like 8 hours of trying to solve this yesterday. System (and data) backs up ok now. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sponix2ipfw:
From what I have read in the General section for this device, you need to do the temporary kernel downgrade method to root NK1 with towelroot. ..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] beavis5706:
Yeah I did just that. Used I545VRUFNK1_I545VZWFNK1_I545VRUFNK1_HOME.tar via odin to upgrade to NK1 (came from CarHD 32.1S v2 NG6-NCx STOCK so unable to get OTA update). Once I update to NK1 use odin to flash I545_NC5_Stock_Kernel, run towelroot, then use odin to flash I545_NK1_Stock_Kernel. Then install supersu.

Honestly I don't know how I fixed it. My best guess is somehow having the wrong time zone in safestrap somehow caused a problem backing up system. All I know is now I can back up system ok (data too).

Thanks for the help anyway...still worth giving a thumbs up!

phone issue when connecting bluetooth during call

i have an issue that ive found. when i accept a call and then connect my bluetooth headset, com.android.phone crashes and i cant hear anything in my bluetooth headset. i can still talk on the phone and sometimes it switches to speaker. i cant hang up either even if i click phone again.

i managed to recreate it and recorded a logcat with catlog but i dont really know what everything is doing in there or if i caused it with an app conflict.

normally i have my bluetooth headset connected first and then make a call and thats fine. i just switched to this rom last friday or saturday and i dont think i connected the headset during a call since then.

thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] beavis5706:
I am a bit confused over what is the purpose of the empty galaxy rom. Does it actually free up any space on the internal storage? My S4 seems to have about as much free space as running a full stock rom. What are the actual advantages of running the empty galaxy rom versus a full stock rom?

I love the work on this rom and enjoy running it. I am just curious as to why my S4 only has 6.5 gb free on the internal storage when I barely have any apps installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tech 4 9:
The current size of this rom is less than 1 gig. Current stock 4.4.2 is approx 2.6 gig so there is 1.5 gig saved... UNLESS...you are keeping stock rom in Stock slot and employing slot-1 for custom rom which means you have approx 3.5 gig in just rom. I run EVG in Stock slot leaving other slots empty and have 101 USER apps on phone w/ 6.5 gig left on internal SD.

Nk1 modules

Where can I download Nk1 modules?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hooks024:
thank you

I just wanted to thank you for this rom. It works great, and is the only one I've had zero problems installing. Are you going to be developing one for the lollipop update once it's released? Perhaps one that can be installed with safestrap so that we don't have to do the ota update and lose root access?

Problems with GPS and Keyboard.

Hi I'm still new to flashing roms and such. But I have a Verizon S4 with a FRESH INSTALL of NK1 Towel rooted with Safestrap v3.75, I've attempted to install your rom to my phone and it goes through fine. I have flashed the NK1 Modules. However my GPS is locked on PowerSaving, I can not switch to accurate. Also when I attempt to switch to SwiftType (Keyboard) it prompts me that it may collect data, I ok that and it goes back to Samsung Keyboard. How can I override these? I am having issues with "EGR_TWUI_321". Thanks for your help. If you need more information let me know what you need and I'll try to reply promptly.

So just out of curiosity I wiped my system and started over from a base NK1 then I went through the steps of rooting and Safestrap, but I installed the 3-4-15 version this time. And the above issues are not present. However I really dislike this one when compared to the newest one when it comes to theme and customizing. It's also not as bloat free as the other one. I still have Amazon music and NFL and even VZTones.... Any idea why the newest one is breaking the GPS and the Keyboard? I really want to run that one again =(

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
It sounds like you either done a dirty flash or your system didn't get wiped properly.

That or those apps are being restored from the Play Store. I could be wrong but I don't believe any of those apps are even in the rom.

Maybe a factory reset (full wipe) and a clean install would solve your issues.

sent from a Galaxy S4 far far away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] armyofsquirrels:
Thanks I'll try starting over from base and seeing what happens and I'll update you. Towel is the app used to root the NK1 firmware, safestrap is the app that we who are stuck on Verizon with a locked bootloader have to use to flash roms. SwiftKey is a keyboard app from the play store. Or where you talking about my second flash with the 3-14-15?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
I know what all of those are, I was referring to your statement about the bloatware...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] armyofsquirrels:
Gotcha. I thought it was weird too still have them too. I just reinstalled the newest version this morning. Everything seems to be working now. Not sure what happened since it was the only Rom I installed.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
I believe you are dead in the water. There is no way to bring it back. Once you flashed the incorrect image, you pretty much trashed the phone. It's unfortunate, but other's have done this and have not been able to recover from it.

And, it's not software you flashed. Like you said, you flashed firmware. That is different from software and flashing the incorrect firmware WILL permanently brick your phone. Flashing the incorrect firmware means you've overwritten the logic in your motherboard with logic that doesn't work with your phone, including having the ability to flash back. Once that is trashed, it doesn't know how to communicate anymore.

This is why you really need to make absolutely sure you have the correct image for your phone and if you are unsure of something, ask before doing anything or else, this is the result.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abifahad:
Now is their any solution i mean do it require to chnge inside IC or to reset the logic to factory is their any software or hardwear solution
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
As I stated, the phone is dead. There is no getting it to function again. I don't know how much clearer I could have been in my previous post.

Basically, you have to swap out the motherboard. But, I don't know if that's something you can do. You could take it to a repair shop and see what they say, but there's nothing you can do any more. The phone is fubared.

Guys,

I am trying to FLASH a ROM on my MMX A116, but having an issue with phone SIM cards. I have swapped the internal memory with 32 GB card, and this phone was rooted using a framaroot super SU app. I tried almost all available custom ROM which are installed using TWRP but didn't work well. In engineering MODE both SIM are not detected when using customer ROMs , After an old restore of backup all works fine.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

I received the package this weekend and sad to say it's horrible quality. I was hoping that it was a clear solid protector, but turned out to be PET film. I can't stand PET film products, and this one is even worse than others. It's an orange peal orgy that's not even cut well. Needless to say it's probably identical to the products on Amazon.

Hi there,

Two weeks ago I would like to flash a Rom to my stock Galaxy S4 i 9505. First i needed to root my phone, I didn't did this before with my Galaxy S4 but i did with my Galaxy S3 and S2. After I rooted my phone, everything seems quite well. Only after a couple hours I noticed that my phone frequently rebooted. During the day my phone reboots approximately 5 - 15 times.

I try to root and unroot and again root the phone, but the problem still occur. Does anybody have a solution?

charge your phone to atleast 75% to do anything as it is safe if anything takes long

Is there anybody who knows where I can buy the Sony Xperia Z3 D6633 Silver Green?

I have looked virtually everywhere but the only website that seems to be selling them is Globstar (I cannot post the direct link since I don't have enough posts for that but it's about 500 USD for the phone)

Since they are selling them wholesale I would have to buy 4 of them and I am afraid that at the moment I cannot afford the risk of trying to sell three of them.

It looks like the phone really exists but no webshop is actually selling it.

Hi everybody i was looking for a custom rom based on our prime ZL based on .292 because it's still not available to ZL i found we can install Z rom on Zl by flashing fix ok so here we go:cowboy:

First download the Z rom from this thread by Rajeev http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z/development/rom-ultimate-dualxz-ultra-v1-t2970788

and then download the fix and upload from pakom8 - https://www.mediafire.com/?3n1z3zyyyv4gden

Then download stripped kernel for zl .292 from me - https://www.mediafire.com/?2i58os6vcnb2qv9

ok put the downloaded Aroma Rom and fix for zl in your memory card, if your coming from any means of recovery from android 4.2.2 , 4.3 , 4.4 etc and working recovery (TWRP ,CWM) etc

1.Backup ur Datas.

2.Boot to ur desired recovery.

3.Restore factory settings (a clean installation is recommended)

4.wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache

5.flash rom (Read instructions mentioned in thread by Rajeev before flashing)

6.flash zl fix for z roms

7.power off your device WARNING-do not restart because your device is different and kernel too.

[Sony Xperia ZL] RaDi004:
Nothing much difference

Well there is nothing much difference between z and zl because both have same hardware except camera sensor and ips(waterproof) for Z and much importantly both have different kernel for their hardware so you need to flash the fix and kernel to xperia z after flashing z rom to zl.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbelive:
I'd like to see bit louder and more bassy loudspeaker :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentaXx:
Better camera performance and clearer camera app (too many options, too many "links" between options), raw support (most likely not gonna happen), lockscreen close to stock lollipop, more flexible recent apps drawer (seems too "static" and also, with the multiwindow options and "close all", very crowded), quick toggles integrated as in stock lollipop, click-to-expand volume bar

I already had CM12 on my HTC One M7 but i can say, i'm not missing much. The lockscreen was definitely better, the system was pretty fast and die animations made the system look less "static" and more interactive, it made more fun just to scroll through settings etc.

I also hope for sony to improve battery life even more, because well - it's battery life :) If we can have an improvement of maybe 20%, which was often mentioned during general lollipop news, the Z3 would impress me even more. At the final hours with the One M7, i struggled to get 3.5hrs SOT which seems like a joke now, the Z3 easily doubles that.
