Yeah I noticed that a lot lately with every update. Main reason I didn't move from nc6 for a long time. Now I've also been getting a standby that the screen won't turn on. I know it's working cause I have applications showing notifications on the led. Or it's the phone flashing it red.. Not sure honestly. (My kik flashes red when I get messages.) Anyways, I used the recommended setting for the tweaker, any other setting you would recommend tweaking? Specifically to that issue? I would have to hold the power button and force a reboot when that would happen. I'm trying to avoid changing kernals if i can resolve it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
Try different governors and schedulers. Every phone is different and there are a ton of options. Also make sure your screen off CPU isn't too low, mine couldn't do less than 1000 without freezing up occasionally.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] grabb0r:
In regards to pulling apps from other ROMs, I want to pull Swype from my stock ROM. I have it backed up with Titanium... can I simply restore it after I flash wickedx or do I actually NEED to follow the instructions you laid out in post #78? I know there's an app (or possibly an xposed module) to create an .apk from an installed app... would it be a workable solution to put the resultant apk on my external SD and install from there after flashing WX? Seems like it to me, but I haven't really horsed with ROMs since 2011 with an Optimus V and between what I have forgotten and what has changed I am unsure about how valid my remaining knowledge is.

Also, in the OP you mention putting the WickedX zip on SD and installing from there - do you mean external SD or the internal/emulated SD? Sorry if this is a dumb question but the last time I did this stuff Android was a lot friendlier to external storage and I want to make sure I do things right.

Lastly, the google apps on my phone (play, services, framework) have a ridiculous amount of redundant permissions on my phone due to my need to disallow anything absolutely necessary and them being reloaded when google forces updates which I can't stop. Do I need to do a super wipe to knock those out or is the standard wipe going to suffice? It's not that it's hurting anything, but that kind of "background bloat" eventually really adds up and results in lag since I tend to keep my devices around until they die (still have my Optimus in fact, though now it's just an mp3 player).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
You should be able to just restore through TiBackup.

Either.

That's Google for you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] grabb0r:
Good to know, thanks. Downloaded and verified md5, but...

Doesn't answer whether or not a standard wipe will do the trick in removing redundant permission entries or if I have to super wipe.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
Wiping does absolutely nothing for permissions. Your question makes no sense. What "permission entries" are you taking about?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] grabb0r:
For instance, my google play app has about a dozen entries for the "location" permission - I kept disabling it over the past few months, but I guess it just re-adds a new one now and then (I didn't notice the permission entries were actually piling up until this week when I got xprivacy instead of a different permissions manager. I thought it was just re-enabling the disabled permission). My question is when I flash the new ROM will this carry over or will the wipe take care of it (or do I need to superwipe to do that).

Also curious about autostart entries; same story, basically... I like to stop apps from starting unless I tell them to, but many of them just create a new autostart entry after using or updating the program. Half of the reason for going to a new ROM for me is to get rid of this kind of "plaque" which builds up on my devices.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] grabb0r:
Is a stagefright fix is baked into WickedX yet? If not, are there plans to do that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
This is a Kitkat ROM. I am no longer working on it. I just got the files today and I am planning on making a flashable that will hopefully work for every ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Team Scream:
Man, in my excitement with setting up my phone exactly the way I like it, I totally forgot to check to see if wifi worked because I was getting 4G/LTE all day and didn't care about wifi, but now that I am home, I just noticed that the wifi toggles will not stay on and that I have no Wifi.

What could be wrong? I get fantastic LTE connectivity..

Baseband and sofware both show that I have COD2 and the rom is so buttery smooth for me.

One thing I do notice is that the model # now shows up as SPH-L720 . Hardware version is reported as L720T.03

The rom that I downloaded and flashed is named: Wicked-X-v10.6.zip

Any ideas?.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
You didn't flash the L720T Converter. It's right underneath the ROM link. Plus you're in the wrong thread now, this is my KitKat ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Team Scream:
Crap... Sorry about that! Thank you !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] grabb0r:
Oic. Do you have a link to that project or is there not even a thread for it yet? And when you say every ROM am I to assume that includes this one as well even though you're not working on it anymore? Sorry if this is a redundant question... just want to be certain. I value stability and polish over the new hotness and probably won't migrate to lollipop until more of the ROMs are "finalized," which from my experience doesn't happen until a good while into the OS lifecycle. I do appreciate the fact that you're still actively answering questions on this even if you're done developing it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
By every I mean ALL ROMS FOR THIS DEVICE *hopefully*. Since the fix has only been released on Lollipop, we'll just have to see.

Lollipop has been out since May, but I don't think I've had it polished until my most recent release. My ROMs aren't finalized until there is a new OS or I move on to a new phone.

Anyone Else having trouble posting from tapatalk, :confused: cannot seem to find the reply button.

anyway.... I read through the thread and the comments about your ringtones and notifications peaked my interest. So I downloaded and extracted the ringtones. I must say KUDOS!

what emulators are you using? I am still using NESOID SNESOID ATARIOD etc.... They have not been on the market for some time now but they are still working great!

Has anyone had any better luck with this on the 720t?

I dont flash much anymore with the T version. Hard to find good roms always seem to have data issues.

What rom did you develop for the EVO? I tried pretty much all of them in my day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
Jelly Belly and MotoBlur'd for the EVO and EVO Shift.

ePSXe, MyBoy, AndroGenesis, PPSSPP

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fuzzybuffalo:
Yep the hotspot mod works.

When I turned data back on I have not noticed it before, but on Ting under device settings, megabytes where you turn on data there is now a toggle for can use tethering.

Edit: If you look on Ting's Rate page, it lists tethering and hotspot under Extra Freebies.

Is Elm Agent part of knox? It wanted to send a security report last night.

Yep I'm using Tapatalk 4.12.1and the reply and thanks button keep disappearing on me to, I have been restarting Tapatalk to get them back.

And I'm on the 720T and data is working for me, can't tell you long term because I just turned it back on. But it is connecting to 4G/LTE with no problems so far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
Did you verify the md5sum? If you've been on a Lollipop ROM recently, you need to wipe the internal SD before you can go back to Kit Kat. TWRPs "Format Data" next to (not the one in the Advanced Wipe menu) Advanced Wipe does this for you. It shouldn't take more than ten minutes for the first boot.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bilgerryan:
Ok this is going to be the first post in the frequently asked questions section (post #4), because it is the most frequently asked question. This is meant to be a tool to help you guys and gals and for me as well (so I don't have to make a million flashables). Use it to learn what you are doing when you are modifying Android, this what the flashable is doing for you.

How do I get (insert app) from this other ROM working on this ROM?

First off, I'm going to be using Root Browser for this tutorial. If you know how to use the root functions of your file browser then that's great, if not I highly recommend downloading this app so you can follow along (Developer=JRummy).

Now navigate to the ROM you are wanting the app from. In this example we will be using Sprint Zone because it was just asked for. So we'll navigate to our stock OA3 ROM (using the L720T because of the example) and in Root Browser (and Windows) if you click on the zip it will allow you to navigate through the zip file. Go to system/priv-app. Now we find the file we need, zone.apk (if you don't know a package name don't hesitate to ask). Now if we click on it in Root Browser it will give us the option to extract, choose that. The apk will be placed in the newly made sdcard/extracted (your internal sd). Note: in Windows you cannot copy the file from inside a zip directly to your sdcard via usb, you need to move it to another folder such as Documents first. Now, navigate to your newly extracted apk, long press and hit Copy. Note: if you are replacing an existing app such as Messaging, you would need to delete the existing file first (system/priv-app/SecMms.apk). Navigate to the folder you extracted the apk from within /system of your phone, in this case priv-app. Paste the apk into that folder. Hold on, we're not done... Navigate to zone.apk and long press on it until the menu pops up. Select Permissions. Change your permissions to look like the screenshot and hit OK (unless you're copying binary or init.d scripts, those get executive permissions, 0755). The number at the bottom should say 0644 and rw-r--r--. This the normal permission for a system app. Now we reboot and our app will be installed.

Pretty smooth

Was looking for a nice touch wiz rom. This is working out pretty good so far. A few issues I have noticed. The camera doesn't like to rotate correctly, portrait mode is unusable. I can't seem to get any of the themes or mods to work properly. The transition effect on it lags it up so I took that off. There's a lot of bloatware I wouldn't mind losing. I see the option to have the back key kill the app but then you loose the multi window option. Any way we could get that available on the menu key instead? Good work, how we can get some updates and some more cool stuff.
