I have one of them...there's like 10 of them so I kinda shot in the dark on which one to flash. Only positive thing for me was the snappiness of it. I try to stay as far away from Odin as possible. Once I flashed it and it booted (about 15 minutes) that's when I got relentless fcs. They ceased after a reboot. Then tried rebooting again to go into SS to flash Wi-Fi fix, but I got the 4x splash screen loop after pressing recovery. I flashed it after aroma by quitting installer along with the c-to-d-OTA fix. Then I FlashFire'd muniz's deodex, with 10 minute screen t/o, to a stuck custom lock screen.

I'm very much educated in Safestrap and that's why I couldn't figure out what I did wrong. I followed the no Odin Safestrap method with nc5flasher cause I didn't c any issues from others doing it. And, I also was experiencing problems with hardkey backlights not working when the screen was acted upon. Only when they we're pressed...idk...But I'm running smooth now on stock deodex.

Ooo, can't wait for new version! I like your roms btw (even tho I've never ran one lol).

I performed a nand in SS which took ages and ate a fifth of my extSd. I did wipe in aroma. Only thing I didn't do u mentioned was wipe system in SS. And I always used to: advance wipe all but extSd, flash, wipe cache/dalvik, flash modules, wipe cache/dalvik and so on. But I was hesitant on following that protocol because of the new runtime (of which I'm oblivious). I couldn't find the NK4 fix on your AFH. So I know now that was the Wi-Fi problem because I flashed the oc1 variant from the no Odin Safestrap thread. I may try again in a minute...from what I saw, this is a very well thought out ROM with all the extras and cool features. I did come very close to installing super6, sounds like a great ROM.

And, if u don't mind...what xposed_min_sdk version did you use? 1, 2, or 3?

If u need a tester for the stock deodex/bloat I'm game. Thanx for the help guys!

I've heard reports of FlashFire working. I haven't tried to install xposed yet. But from the reports I'm seeing, muniz's stock deodex reportedly works well with Xposed flashed with FlashFire.

Hey guys, new to trying TW roms, on MDK bootloader and flashed per instructions everything with the most modded UI pack. Searched for this question but didn't see anything.

Does anyone else have a solid notification bar instead of lollipop transparent notification bar? not sure if TW just has the solid bar or something weird with mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Drake9897:
Tried testing car mode for use with my APPradio2 today. Sad to report that after setting up car mode it stops working and then my home button stops responding completely until I restore to a back up. No amount of rebooting fixes the home button I MUST restore a backup. So AFAIK don't run car mode with this ROM.

Dumb question

:confused: I have a dumb question. I am not familiar with Odin. What happens if i don't flash the Odin tar with this rom? Will I just be missing some features? :fingers-crossed:

Thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 66gt350:
I tried using this similar to jrkruse's International Port Patch, and ran into a couple of issues. I tried this with the Imperium LL Rom v6.0 from the i9505 thread, and the hydramax kernel. I got it to boot, but then it wouldn't connect to our wifi, and it wouldn't connect to data. but I could make phone calls. I'm still on the MDK boot loader and TWRP recovery.

Any idea's what I need to tweak to get this to work with an international rom?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sauravdn:
Rom feels stuttery and videos on youtube stutters alot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
You will be stuck in a bootloop or the phone will be bricked(repairable through Odin I think)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 06sharpshot:
So I was on OC1 stock rooted and I used the odin downgrade, flashed the rom from the OP, and then flashed the upgrade and everything worked until the setup screen. I get to the app restore part of the setup and then my device reboots. Now I can't get past this setup and the device reboots every few minutes. Anyone have a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ATGkompressor:
Odin back to nc5 and start over
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
I have successfully installed this ROM and it rocks! Very quick and the battery life is slightly better.

One question. I install SafeStrap and grant it root permissions. When I reboot I get the safestrap screen, but I am unable to get into recovery. Did I do something wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Likkleskip:
No safestrap on lollipop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
Dumb question #2. What is the best app fro recovery then?

I have TWRP manager installed but that fails when I try to install the recovery. I assume for the same reason safestrap does as well (since safestrap is TWRP).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fdigl:
You can't at the moment, the only thing you can do is use ODIN to downgrade, and you should be able to boot into safestrap. Don't try anything too drastic like recoveries on Lollipop, it's too risky and not too many things work right now.

(In reply to this question)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
You have to get the nc5 flasher and the oc1 kernal bypass to get into safestrap. Find the thread, I think its in general.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:
[MENTION=358706]eris[/MENTION]Droid search XDA or visit my other threads for the NC2Flasher.apk which will reboot directly to Safestrap. Then in Safestrap you'll need to flash the upgrade zip. A ROM all inclusive upgrade (like the new Super6 version) or Odin upgrade using my upgrade packs available in the SAFE Upgrade or Downgrade thread under General.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Wheres Super6???!

So many bugs popping up, I am most likely going back to Hyperdrive... Icons dissapearing, device freezing, loss of signal...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gigilie:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
I installed NC2Flasher.apk, now where would i find the upgrade.zip? I also noticed that in the Settings>Device>Downloads and extras there is a V50, where can we get the link for that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
No clue about v50, dev has stopped. The OC1 kernal? Should be in that link...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pizza_pablo:
I want to install v49...now, v50, on my Verizon MDK SCH-i545.

I've read the following:

http://echoerom.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1&start=10620

http://www.apktopmarket.com/rom-echoe-rom-v49-tw-lollipop-customized-debloated-deodexed-fast.html#comment-6437

and this forum / thread.

I still am a bit confused to the install instructions as what I've read seems to bounce back and forth from Safestrap to TWRP/MDK installs.

What are the necessary steps?

For instance....

1. Start TWRP.

2. Flash ROM.

3. Flash CustomROM_Upgrade_Lollipop_VZW_wNK4-NoSys-gogolie.tar (in TWPR or ODIN?)

or 3 alternative. flash your favorite Custom Kernel recommended is AEL or KT) but only after installing Safestrap 3.75 and busybox. (on an MDK phone???)

4. Boot to DOWNLOAD mode and flash Custom_ROM_Re-Upgrade_Lollipop_VZW_wNK4_Boot-only-gogolie.tar

Please help! TIA!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
I'm not a dev or a programmer by any stretch, but I do flash a lot. I followed the instructions on the first page.

1. download rom

2. flash from recovery (i use safestrap (TWRP))

3. once the phone boots, shut it down and go into dowload mode, Home+vol down+power until you see the android

4. using ODIN flash the second download (CustomROM_Upgrade_Lollipop_VZW_wNK4-NoSys-gogolie.tar)

You may need to get the drivers for you phone installed on your computer first (i needed to, ODIN didn't see my phone at first)

reboot and enjoy

The instructions are right on on the OP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pizza_pablo:
OK, You are getting me there. I have read the OP first post as well as most of this thread, several times. I was baffled by the back and forth instructions.

So, by "second download", you mean this file? https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952597051
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
You got it. That needs to be flashed in ODIN
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pizza_pablo:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:

somethings up with my micro usb port...the phone charges but cant transfer files. is there anyway i can still flash things in download mode if the files are on the phone? i can put files on the phone and remove them via wifi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pizza_pablo:
I just ree ree ree read the OP, And he says for MDK, to skip ODIN step and install favorite kernel. Why does he say that if I'm to flash ROM and then got to ODIN and install the .tar file?

Also, I see there is no Cobalt theme for Lollipop Touchwiz. BOO HOO :( But that's minor...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pizza_pablo:
Well, after Aroma, I flashed SuperSu, just to be safe and booted system and received the dreaded yellow triangle of software not authorized. Oh, and I chose the stock kernel.

Should I do the ODIN step anyways, will that fix it? Was I supposed to get here?

ETA: I've decided to install, after full wipe and skip flashing SuperSu......here we go.....

ETA: same result, yellow triangle.

What have I done wrong?

It would seem, from reading the OP install instructions that I should not try to boot the ROM, but quit install and boot into download mode and flash the .tar. I'm apprehensive to try this as I fear brick.

I just realized that I don't know which box to check, to load the .tar file into......

Well, I went for it and chose the AP block (after interweb searching). Its on the SAMSUNG logo with flying dots, right now.....

I got to the setup screen in less than 10 minutes. Here we go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lscheres:
Got the rom installed and it looks awesome!! Was trying to mount the folders in syste/lib for the txt fix with es file manager and the phone froze and rebooted... now its sitting at a samsung screen with a lock that says custom above it.... i pulled the battery but it just does the same thing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDroid?:
I have been running this rom for about a week with no issue up to now. I tried to use texting this weekend and found out that i can't send a text. i can receive them no problem. Does anyone else have this issue and is there a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
The fix in somewhere in the thread... You either

A)Flash a fix file

B) Replace three files in the system/lib folder which will fix messaging.

Odin

Sorry if I noob it up. I'm running Hyperdrive KK on an OC1, rooted, safestrapped, bootlocked VZN S4. I would LOVE to upgrade to Echoe Lollipop but I'm seeing some issues. I started off ready to Odin downgrade as per the OP instructions but I realized I don't know what slot in Odin to load the .tar file in. A few months back I bricked my gf's bootlocked S4 so I'm a bit gun-shy. What slot should I load the .tar file in? Also, I've read conflicting success stories. What's the consensus on this ROM on bootlocked VZN S4s?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dub_whytie:
Hi,

I have a Galaxy S4 i9505 lte that was locked to three Ireland, I unlocked it using the guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2282683.

I put my meteor ireland sim card in the phone and it was not recognised, no pin request, nothing. I put my wife's meteor sim card in and it worked no problem, i put another meteor sim in and it worked no problem, both times asking for pin number.

I put my meteor sim in another phone and it worked no problem, even asking for a pin number.

I went to the meteor shop and exchanged my sim card in the hope it was the card and not the phone. I put the new sim card into the phone and it asked for a pin number but would not work, it worked in three different phones but not my phone and three different meteor sims worked in my phone no problem.

I tried different roms both times, stock-cyanogen-others, none worked with mine and all worked with the other sims, so I guess the phone is unlocked.

Am I missing something, maybe in *#0011# settings that my number is locked out of the phone even though it worked on Three Ireland.

I hope someone can help me.

You need to downgrade your modem. Read the last pages of that thread. There is all you need.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2ndcarpenter:
Possible try the setting in the hidden menu. I have the E300K I put a different Sim card and it would not register. I went into the hidden menus and changed some of the settings and forced it to read the card and change carriers. I can't tell you exactly what they were I don't have the phone in front of me right now, I'm at work.....if you use *#0011#, you will need to hit back, then key enter, type Q0 and enter or Q000 and enter, wait about 10 seconds or so it will put you in the hidden menu, or you could type the main code and password. Not sure what it would be for your phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=5111626]2ndcarpenter[/MENTION]: Misread the post? The OP had already tried the service menu unlock and found it didn't work. The reason? He didn't downgrade his modem, as mentioned about a half dozen times by me in that thread.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dub_whytie:
Hi,

Thanks for the replies, but I guess you did misread the post.

I done the guide, which I couldn't have done if I didn't have an older modem.

The unlock actually works with the other meteor sims, just not with my meteor sim, and the sim definitely works in other phones. The pin request I was talking about was the 4 digit sim security one, not the network unlock pin.

So I am still at a loss as to what is wrong.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
We all likely misread your post. Now that you explained things however, it's become much more clear. Did you use the service menu method to unlock the S4, or did you use RegionLock Away? The possibility exists that the service menu method may have triggered the SIM pin. If that is the case, then you need to go back into the service menu and set Perso SHA 256 to its original setting. From there, root and run RegionLock Away. If you ran RegionLock Away and it did this, you may be stuck. RegionLock Away's ability to completely unlock the phone is an unintended side effect of its real function, which is to remove Samsung's regional lock list. Chainfire doesn't provide support for the unintended side effect.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dub_whytie:
Hi,

I used the service menu method to unlock, I will try regionlockaway and see if that maybe will make a difference.

I am already rooted on lollipop but do you think I should downgrade modem again and then run regionlockaway.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Downgrading is required for either unlock method to work.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2ndcarpenter:
Did I misread the post? No, I saw a link which I did not check, and I saw that he 'tried' *#0011#, but I didn't see that he was able to get to the hidden menu. *#0011# does not get you to the hidden menu, it gets you to a debug screen. But I'm sure an expert like yourself already knows that. So without a better explanation I wasn't sure exactly what he tried. I am only trying to offer advice to someone on a device that I don't even use anymore. I still own it and test various firmwares and kernels, but do not use for my daily driver. But between work and my CCNA certification class, I have very little time, so I will stick to what is more important.......me and my education.
