No data on Sprint

Hello team,

I just flashed this wonderful rom and I have lost all data connections... no 3g at or any data at all. I initially was on Sacs NG2 and then on stock rooted NG2 rom and had no issues with data. One strange thing was that i also did not have any entries in the Access Point within settings.

- Any directions to help fix the data issue is greatly appreciated

- assuming this is due to no entries in Access points, can someone please share their APN details please?

Thanks,

Yaantra

Did you dirty flash it the first time or did you completely wipe the entire SD? If you don't do the initial install on a formatted drive this happens. Put the ROM on your external and format the primary SD and then flash the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Yaantra:
I did exactly that, had flashed the rom with a full formatted internal storage. Did it twice and it did not work. I then flashed back to stock NG2, made a call or 2 and made sure had data and then factory reset (TWRP) + dirty flashed... And wallah... I got data back.

As of now mostly everything i use works except the recommended music player which shuts down as soon as i open it...

Thanks...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] TheGTS:
I don't have an external SD, is there any other way to get the data working?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IcerJo:
Bluetooth is stable for me so far (no more problems with my car) for the person experiencing screen cast issues, I have no problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hahansen3:
Did you do anything special to get it to work? I have tried 2 different Samsung Smart TVs and 1 WD TV Live device with no luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Yaantra:
Is there a way to change the background on the app drawer? Or perhaps make it transparent or translucent?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dcillusions77:
Nova launcher can do it

Sent from my s4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Yaantra:
Yep, aware of that, but the google launcher included is so much better, so was hoping to find a solution to make the app drawer here transparent.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] StifflerServices:
question, just to make sure im reading this correctly, will this automaticly sim or cdma unlock the device for any carrier? im have a Verizon and sprint s4 the Verizon is no longer in use on their network and was thinking of doing a prepay or adding it to Sprint plan will this be possible? Also I saw the thread on how to global unlock and domestic unlock the Sprint s4 but haven't had time to do so, so that would be great if this rom does and then just put in a sim from say a prepay if it ever gets shut down or want to use it in a non or bad sprint coverage area and switch it temporarily to a better service, or am I off base and that is only possible with doing a PRL Swap to catch other towers? Thanks for any info. I am planning on going on a trip to AZ in feb and last I heard from the family that sprint service wasn't the best in that area so it would be nice to be prepared before I get there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CamelToeJoe:
Just flashed... No data on Sprint.

Factory reset and flashed. Have tried twice

Are you using a Sim Card?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
I am also one of those who's Miracast / Castcreen is not working and looking for any clues to get it going...

I'm on Sprint and Everything Else is working like a dream...Great ROM!

Any hints would be very appreciated! Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Yaantra:
I had the same issue... Got it resolved. Please read post #643 on the previous page.

Google Voice Issue

Is anyone else having issues calling out with Google Voice number??? Besides that one issue this is my favorite ROM to-date. Keep up the good work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Zhono:
How are you calling with your Google Voice number? I'm using Hangouts to make calls over wifi/4g, and it's working fine. When I was using the GV app to redirect cell calls through my voice number, I was having issues with it just aborting the call before it even attempted to call out. Never did figure it out. But I will now be using my GV number exclusively, and over wifi, so I no longer have need of anything other than the Hangouts app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CamelToeJoe:
Reflashed a third time and things are working smoothly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
People who r having problems with screen casting, what device r u using? I have a rooted chromecast and a roku, both work fine. Only issue I noticed was some camera apps don't rotate. IMO the roku seems to be smother than the Chromecast.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mudtruck87:
Great Rom! Last update everything was great. All is still amazing runs fast and no lag. Love it.

One issue that popped up this last update.. As you see in the signature line I'm now a GT-I9505G... Not my Sprint 720.

Second.. And it's confirmed because it's happened twice, if you use the phone to the point the battery dies then it won't boot back up. The phone tries but never gets to the boot screen. Even a dirty flash won't recover it. The best I was able to do is get the top information bar to display but the rest of the screen remains black.

I did a complete wipe as recommended when the Rom was initially installed. I only dirty flashed as a last ditch effort to recover my stuff.

I'm still running the Rom because it's solid. Thanks for the great work.!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CamelToeJoe:
I had this problem on the last build... It seemed to get stuck on two different battery charging screens... After awhile I finally got into boot back up. I forget how though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hahansen3:
I am using Sprint Galxy S4 SPH-L720. I have tried to connect to 2 different Samsung Smart TVs and 1 WD TV Live device with no luck.

I use to have this same issue on 4.4.4. To fix it there, I had to go into developer options, and change hdcp settings. But in 5.0, I do not see that option in developer options anymore. Does anybody know where hdcp settings can be adjusted in 5.0?

Thanks.

Trying to get Miracast working...

In an effort to get my S4 able to cast toother screens, I've been reading all the posts, looking at all the forums, and generally making a pest of myself All Over The Place...

All of the efforts so far have not worked, but I do think there is hope...

Some of my discoveries on along the way -

1) we don't have a wfdconfig.xml file to edit.

2) Anything done to my build.prop doesn't have an effect.

3) Since this is a Lollipop ROM, more than a few of the other methods probably wouldn't work anyway, because...reasons.

In my poking around, I did discover three files that look suspiciously like they might affect all of this. They're in system / lib/drm folder

libdrmplugin.so

libdrmwvmplugin.so

libfwdlockengine.so

Can anyone take a look at these files and tell me if they actually affect the HDCP on our phones? Apparently, according to almost everything I have read so far, once rooted, one cannot get miracast to function unless the "custom" bit from root is untripped, or HDCP is removed from the system.

Anyone out there have enough experience in these kinds of things to give a hand or point in a correct direction? I LOVE this ROM, but I used to use it for making presentations at work and Really Miss the functionality...

Thanks in advance!

(cross posted here from the 9505 forum because I'm actually on Sprint...just in case...apologies if you have seen this before... :) )
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
Don't hold me to it but I and heard that lollipop screencast doest work unless the device u r connecting to is hdcp compatible. Otherwise u need a dongle to do it. I'll have to look into more and like I said don't hold me to that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
To get developer options working in our ROM, tap on the build nyumber until developer options are released...To get to the only options we have , go to settings / display / Cast screen. It's not HDCP options, but there are display monitoring options...

Just FYI, changing any of these values did nothing for me, unfortunately...

Looking forward to someone with more experience pointing in the right direction... :)

I DO have a dongle that is miracast certified. three of my other devices connect to it with NO issues whatsoever...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
Do u mean ur s4 won't work with the dongle? The only experience I have had with mirroring is my rooted Chromecast and my roku. Both work fine. I'll be visiting my parents shortly they have a smart TV by lg. I'll try and connect to it to see what happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mogul420:
Ive noticed that sometimes I would wake the phone after just a few seconds of screen off and it lets me do some things (such as launching apps, view some SMS) for a minute maybe. Then it becomes unstable and the lockscreen appears randomly.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
Chromecast and Roku are *technically* not mirroring. They function specifically within the app that allows you to "broadcast" a pointer that allows the TV / monitor AND your phone to synchronize with the same content. The server is sending the same packets to two devices.

True mirroring allows anything and everything on the screen of the phone / device to be pushed to the TV / Screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IcerJo:
According to your last statement, Cast Screen would be the same as mirroring as it shows everything and anything you put on the phones screen on the tv screen the only caveat would be that it's doing so using a secondary device (Chromecast or Roku) instead of the tv itself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
Roku and chromcast both will mirror anything on the phone, that's why I thought it was working.

Just tried on lg TV and semi works. Some apps don't mirror very well but for the most part it worked.

Edit: Never mind bout it working. Just lost connection and now its not showing up at all. First it worked (well sorta) and now nothing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
Hmmm. I could definitely be mistaken on the Chromecast / Castscreen differences. It was what I believed from all the paperwork that came with my dongle.. :)

Or maybe the Castscreen button takes advantage of whichever implementation you have on your phone? *Now* I'm just guessing.. :)

Hopefully, someone with some real knowledge can weigh in and lead us all to the (mirrored monitor) light!

Thanks for the comments...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
Almost there... :)

So, I got the ROM to recognize the dongle and get the screen to cast to it.

Here's what I did -

This is all based on this set of info from here -

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/35609-toro-build-5-milestone-1-play-movies-license-fetch-error/

This is all from 2012 so I had to look around a bit and modify their info for our ROM

Using Root Explorer, I went to these files and renamed them with the .BAK suffix (so I could find them again easily in case it didn't work... :) )

system/lib/libwvm.so

system/lib/drm/libdrmwvmplugin.so

system/vendor/lib/libwvdrm_L1.so

system/vendor/lib/libWVStreamControlAPI_L1.so

Then I commented out this line from build.prop: ( again, commented so I could reverse if necessary )

drm.service.enabled=true

Reboot

And Everything seems to be great EXCEPT Netflix movies will not cast - the Frame of control and all info overlays I can see fine, and the sound is there, but the movie image cannot be seen.

On the site where the info is, they say that this will break Hulu. I am now off to go experiment with UNdoing things file by file to see if anything changes.

WOOHOO for experimentation! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
Using the 1/28/2015 build, I have GPS lock and I have 3G and LTE data on Sprint. My LTE data is amazingly slow. I was using CM12 for Jfltespr and seeing speeds of 10 -15 mbps down 5 up about 30-40 ms latency. With this rom im getting 1 -2 mbps down and about 3 up with latency in 120+ms. I am not seeing the no sprint sim card,

Preferred network is CDMA+LTE/EVDO

Subscription is NV

APN: Sprint LTE Internet (selected)

Im just wondering if anyone else has the same issues?

Also came from a complete system wipe, wiped everything using TWRP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
After another round of experimentation, it turns out all you need to do is comment out

drm.service.enabled=true

to get the exact same functionality as all of the lib file renaming, etc... :)

It STILL does not play Netflix files, but it will allow YouTube...

Still experimenting...

Now if any of the devs out there want to figure out how to get my Netflix movies to 'Cast, I'd be the happiest puppy in town.. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mp3ster:
Couple issus here.

1. "No service" on lock screen. Buyndo in fact have data.

2. Super flaky WiFi. Game of war will not stay connected.

2a. When WiFi is on and connected, service bar indicator will flash with an '!' Occasionally.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] DonToolBag:
(To your last point):

I noticed this for the first time yesterday, the connectivity toggles between LTE and the "!" icon repeatedly. It never happened previously, and my phone has been running rock solid. Came here to see if anyone else was having the same issue as me. The data signal does in fact drop, as I am trying to stream at the time.

No issues with wifi here, and I just recently started getting the "No Sim Card" error again randomly.

DTB
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
After several flashing attempts I discovered that Sprint had service issues in the Philadelphia, PA area. Of course it would happen during a rom upgrade. After a complete wipe and using the recommended wipe in the installer, I have full service 3G and LTE. WIFI works, GPS works, Bluetooth works(even streaming music), Installed VIper4Android and it works. I love this rom. Going to put it though more solid tests today and see how it holds up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasonmlit:
nothing specific here but wanted to share my experience. Clean flashed the 1-28 build and had "no sim card error", no LTE, and many force closes on apps. I decided to clean flash again (the same download even) and this time unchecked the autoreboot function, and someone had mentioned clearing the dalvik after that, so I did, and everything seems to be completely functional. LTE, sim card, and apps. Just in case anyone else is experiencing any of these issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carlosfig:
For all the Sprint users having issues with voicemail

- Download VM apk from http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/themes-apps/modded-sprint-visual-voicemail-apk-t2994978

and follow the instructions to edit build.prop below

ro.product.model=SPH-L720
ro.product.name=jfltespr
ro.product.device=jfltespr

- If you already have a VM app, Uninstall, clear cache/dalvik, change Build.Prop, Install VM App, Restart. ENJOY!

-You will still recv texts from 9016
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hahansen3:
Thanks for the info. I tried commenting out the DRM line in build.prop and rebooted, but it still did not work for me connecting to a Samsung smart TV. Did you have to do anything else to get it to work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Achristocat:
As far as I know, Samsung TV's need some version of their own proprietary software (in Touchwhiz I think it's AllShare...)

I have been experimenting today with other lines in the build.prop but so far either commenting out the line in the build.prop OR chnging the value to false seems to do the same thing. It ALL still allows me to connect to the Microsoft Wireless Adapter plugged into the BigOldMonitor here at work. The ONLY thing I cannot get to work yet in my world is getting Netflix to show the images of the movie when I CastScreen to the monitor. I got the control overlays, the sound and everything else, just no imagery. I'm SURE it has to do with the DRM on the stream - I just have to figure out a way to get around the rights management somehow...

I hope you figure out your solution. If not, it may be worth it to get the Microsoft Dongle, OR the Actiontech dongle

Ive installed the ROM awhile back now and it had worked fine. But I was curious if anyone knows where I can the one plus camera at. I installed the normal Google camera but wanted to give one plus camera a shot. Just didn't want to reinstall the whole ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Badzuk:
Installed late last night, and so far I'm impressed and everything seems to work.

Smooth, looks nice, and I like Lollipop.

I use my phone for business so I need a dependable DD, but by the time Sprint pushes Lollipop I'll be ready for a new phone.

Thanks for the hard work getting this right!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Hypochondria:
You might need to change the build prop to get it to show up as 720. I was having a voice mail issue an followed the quoted post below. it fixed the vm issue and my phone now shows up as 720. Don't know about the battery dieing issue

Woa!

I found this thread yesterday, before going to work at the hospital (i'm an M.D.)

Did a nandroid backup, and later flashed via CW, just for the hell of it.. I was blown out of the water of the sheer and pure Android experience. I settled with the Google Now Launcher, the One+1 camera, the standard gallery app & CM's music app (even though i love Apollo).

I did have a small hiccup with slow download speeds from the google play store, and later on.. an inability to contact google's services (youtube, play store & gmail). So out of frustration, i wiped cache, dalvik and everything else.

So far its running smooth as butter, and i'm completely in love!:o

The only thing i'm needing is to expand the battery life.. before i used JuiceDefender to get by a day's worth of work... i don't have the luxury of constantly plugging in my phone when my patients need me.

Kudos to the team:highfive:

PD: I have to research how to change the build prop, since i'm running a SPH-L720
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasonmlit:
Just restarted for the first time.... Music is force closing now. Argh. Any suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasmuz:
I'm having the same issue here.. What music app are you running?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasonmlit:
The lollipop music option in aroma
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carwashman:
My first line of attack would be:

Clear cache and data for your music app, then in recovery do cache and dalvik wipe for good measure, reboot.

Download Faster GPS. It did the trick for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jasmuz:

Then reinstall all over again...

Installed But Nothing Works :/

My mom's Galaxy s4 was having some problems so I decided to try this ROM, I'm having major problems.

The first major problem, is the Max brightness is as bright as about 50% where it should be. Max brightness is super dark..

Phone calls don't work.

Screen randomly turns off and won't turn back on. This eventually turns the phone off and it restarts.

I'm somewhat new to all of this, so I think I know my problem but I'm not sure.. I think it may have to do with my phone's Modem/Radios/Whatever else it's called d:

My baseband Version is currently: L720VPUEMK2 - Is this the problem? How do I update?

Model: GT-I9505G

Build Number: LRX22C.20150128

Please help d: Thanks (:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] exeleon:
Not saying it's the cause of all of your problems, but MK2 is a fairly old. If you were interested in updating, I'd first odin in the NAE modem then to NG2 (most current) . go here and grab NAE and follow the directions in the OP to odin it. Then follow the same steps to flash NG2 (its actually the same thread as the first link).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] us17:
Same issue here after a clean flash. Did you find a fix for this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] DaClowns:
Did exactly what you asked, and I'm not on NG2, and texts and phone calls are working perfect!

I am still having the problem with screen brightness. When compared next to my dad's completely stock Galaxy S4, the brightness is a HUGE difference. Gotta get this fixed d: any suggestions?

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT: SOLVED!!!!

Well, I did it. lolol, Under display settings I turned off adaptive brightness. Boy do I feel stupid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] exeleon:
So you're on NAE? but haven't made the jump to NG2?

As for the brightness, go to Settings>Display and make sure adaptive brightness is off or else it's gonna use your sensor and auto adjust brightness according to the ambient lighting. After thats turned off, go into that same menu (or the pull down menu) and adjust your brightness manually. Keep in mind this kind of thing varies from rom to rom and max brightness on one rom may not equal max brightness on another.

Edit: Just saw your update- Glad you figured it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Nintengod:
How is your S4 set up to get mobile data to work without the SIM being put in, my S4 refuses to connect to mobile data without it.

So I was posting this in the Verizon thread so I was in the wrong thread, and I wanted to ask I installed this rom and I absolutely love it, the only problem is that my S4 is flashed to boost and I don't use the SIM card slot, my question is what should I do to get mobile data without having to insert the SIM card.
