Ok finally got ROM working with SS. Had minor issue but i fixed it lol. I went and was gonna use the weather widget and when i went to place on home screen it fc and a box with msg Unfortunately, weather has quit working/running, one of the 2. And when id hit Ok it jus showed back up. I was frustrated. Took battery out and let phone set there all night. Got up this morning and remember when i was running HD 20 that the accuweather2015 wouldn't open for me. Took a while to get to everything i needed to do. Downloaded Root explorer and deleted daemonweather and accuweather2015. I had be quick cause when hit ok in box only had bout half sec before itd be there. I've had no problems since. What version of Xposed are you using and where can i find it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
STOCK SystemUI

For those of you who want to take 3 min battery off here is the the Stock SystemUI in a flashable zip. Remove apks 1st then flash zip.:cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Here you go

APK

https://www.dropbox.com/s/kw1trlb6h78ls7n/XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk?dl=0

ZIP

https://www.dropbox.com/s/lg9d4q2plj0ejlh/xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430-arter97-V3.zip?dl=0

All you have to do is search my thread this is already in there :good: ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
By removing the apk, do you mean to uninstall it? Where's the path to uninstall apk's?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Yes I mean deleting the apks. There are 2. Look in System/apps delete those then flash zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Psychlone:
OK, someone help please?

I've got a perfect-shape Verizon S4 running MDK (has been running Hyperdrive RLS19 since the day it came out and never upgraded to 21) but is verified on MDK baseband.

I followed the directions (which are super simple). Downloaded the MDK rom, verified it's md5 hash, put it on the internal storage.

Rebooted to TWRP (also has been on the phone for over a year), factory reset, flash the rom, then wait.

The problem is that I've let it sit on the Samsung splash ("custom unlocked icon") for over an hour with no change... but to make it stranger, I've downloaded, reverified the md5 hash and factory reset/flash the rom now 6 different times from both the internal storage as well as SD card. This isn't working.

I can restore the TWRP backup I made and verify MDK baseband any time... but it never goes past the Samsung splash no matter what I try when flashing this new ROM.

Ideas?? If I follow the non-MDK flash, can I restore back to MDK if something doesn't work right? Seriously, this seemed too easy compared to some of the other ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Update TWRP to the version in my sig. This has been explained quite a few times in this thread already for MDK / TWRP users.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Very odd, I can't find the folder or .apks in /system/app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I'm sorry it's in priv-app like so

[emoji6] [emoji106]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Psychlone:
Thank you. I read through at least the first 6 pages and the last 6 pages and saw nothing about having to be on a certain version of TWRP - not that it wasn't posted about multiple times but theres NO way that someone is going to read 250-something pages of posts -- something as important as that should probably be in the OP.

It worked like you said it would.

Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
Ill have to wait for update for tester flashfire to arrive to install it. SS want go in recovery to flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Look in my sig to access ss.

And flashfire has been tested many times. And works.

Either method will get you where you want to be.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
It's actually up to the user to make sure their apps are updated. I didn't make my Rom for a specific version of TWRP and as far as searching there is a search option so you wouldn't have to read all those pages[emoji6] .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I would deff do what [MENTION=4168602]klabit87[/MENTION] suggested

Anyone have issues with Camera on V2?

I seem to be able to use other camera apps but not the regular Camera
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
No problems here. What's it doing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NapalmDawn:
Strange. It's showing up for me. Well, google 87 Dodge Shelby Charger. That's what my first car was.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] masters:
Unfortunately, Camera has stopped..

[-OK-]

The other camera app I had downloaded works.

Tried cleared data and cache, still stops.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I did : -) I thought I posted a Google picture of it. So excited my wife surprised me with buying my racing transmission for my Mustang. It will be here tomorrow. That's a surprise of my life. Love her to death
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Never had that issue before. Have you tried reflashing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] steepdgaf:
Sorry if this was covered earlier but did you do a clean install or dirty flash. When V2 came out I dirty flashed over V1 just to experiment and my camera did same thing. I clean installed and all is fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] buhohitr:
I just followed the instructions in OP to flash None-MDK version on OC1 using FF and everything went real smooth, no issue. I noticed the ROM is running a lot smoother. Great work here by stang5litre.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] masters:
Darn, yep a dirty flash over V1 wiped both caches and system but flashed over the rest. Everything else seems fine and I've already swapped which camera app I use more.

I had problems with the phone and V2 seems to be much better (cept the camera).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Don't post issues when you dirty flash. Works fine when you clean flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] steepdgaf:
My apologies, the issue sounded familiar since I like to experiment so was only trying to lend a hand in trouble shooting I'd always recommend a clean install as well to all. Great ROM...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Always appreciate the help ?.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonpa:
Not sure if this is a bug or something I am not doing right, but ringtones that are saved to the SD card don't seem to be working. I have my sound that I use for emails that I receive and it is setup in all of the programs and android to use that sound for notifications, but when I receive an email it does that stupid whistle tone. I am able to change that sound to any system sound and it changes fine, but as soon as I use another custom tone it doesn't work. Does anyone else have that problem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
This is a 1st. I use songs sometimes for ringtones with no issue. I also use zedge with no issues either. Did you do a clean install? What format are your ringtones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
Is SS 3.75 only one that'll work? I have 3.72 already installed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
I haven't tested but the only differences between 3.72 and 3.75 are the functioning rom slots and a few optimizations under the hood.

I don't see any reason for it not to work.

I can only say that I haven't seen anybody test it.

It is only a matter of a min or 2 to uninstall the old one then install the newer version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
How do i go about uninstalling 3.72?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Open safestrap app and select uninstall.

Then uninstall the apk as any regular app.

Install the 3.75apk.

Open ss and select install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
Ok trying it now. Thank you

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

It says DD output and has a square below it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
No that is the nc5 flasher.

And it will not work if you don't have ss and busybox installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
Ok. I installed SS 3.75, updated busybox. Installed NC5 flasher and when I hit for it to reboot i got dd output: [] so i rebooted using power button. Went into SS and flashed Xposed zip. And flashed OC1 kernel after. Everything seems ok so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Sorry I haven't been on. Just as I was uploading the gifs to imgur(another story within itself), I had to go. When I came back, my Power Supply was burning.... Ordered a new one, which will come next week... Prolly won't see around for a bit

Check your PM stang
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonpa:
I did clean install. The files are in .wav and worked fine in the previous ROM that I used, which was the regular ROM deoxed. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Brandon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sir Lancelot:
I had this problem too. It does not register ringtones stored on my SD. I had to reopen Zedge before it would recognize anything I had on SD from past installs.

sent from my MDK Mossed-covered 3 handled family S4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] broski270:
ROM is running great but I ran into a pretty big issue...

When trying to use Google Music the phone will randomly hot reboot. Its only the app but this was not a problem on the regular Samsung ROM. Any idea what the cause is or how to fix it? Im very close to ripping my hair out and Google isn't turning up any results for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Google Music runs fine for me. I use it daily. Send a logcat to Stang.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
[MENTION=5070039]broski270[/MENTION] please either do a clean install or send me a log as [MENTION=5574802]Neffy27[/MENTION] suggested. All google applications work fine. App is called "catlog". Please send me a log so I can see what your phone is doing.

Thanks

Ps. Make sure you don't have the experimental player checked as that is no longer needed if you had it checked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
From just zedge? Or other ringtones as well? If your talking about zedge ringtones they will not appear unless you have zedge installed. If you are trying to actually make it a perminenet ringtone you would have to save it amd move ot to the actual folder where the ringtones are stored. Also what are you using to make ringtones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Send me one of your ringtones please. Gonna try something.

Thanks

Kris
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] maddog00:
Thanks for the ROM! I'm about to update to it, but wanted to make sure that the new xposed alpha 4 is ok to use and if I should still use arter97 v3 still.

Also, would I still need to flash SuperSU? Or is it part of the ROM install? I'm on MDK, btw.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I still use the alpha 3 but 4 works as well. I just don't update if there is nothing wrong. Until it's official anyways.

[emoji106] hope you like the rom.

As far as flashing superSU. It's baked in for MDK[emoji48]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
PSU just came in.

Now i can reflash this with no worries incase I brick again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] phil0sophic:
no ringtone issue

Somewhere in an alternate universe I saw a post about this issue and the solution was to put the ringtones on the internal SD "as the ROM loads them prior to enabling the EXTSD. Don't know if this applies but a couple of my aging synapses fired when I read this. :cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChosenHero4:
Phonr Won't Turn On

So, I did the update, but accidently clicked auto mount during the flashing. So, I then went back and tried to reflash it, but after hitting flash in FF, the screen just went black and now the phone won't turn on period. So, my knowledge tells me I probably hard bricked it, but maybe there is some way I can fix this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
^^^^This. :D

Hilarious.

Stang is a genius, proved it again a few minutes ago via PM w/me, assume he'll post it in the OP soon. Continues to be, the man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aphlatoon:
My baseband version is MDK. It's been stable for 1 day now but still getting shut when I press the power button.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
If you haven't re-downloaded and done a factory reset/re-install that's what I would do.

If you've tried a factory reset, and re-download and re-installed the ROM, I'm starting to wonder if you have a coincidental HW issue w/your phone, or a rogue app on your phone that is causing issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Did you do a full wipe? You could have a bad download as well. Seems like its getting easier and easier to get one. I would advise to download again wipe and re flash to receive victory. What do you mean "Still getting shut when I press the power botton" sorry working off of an hour of sleep. so bare with me

Edit: I see Redflea has already gave advice. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Need a SS user to try out the Instructions and the ROM!!!! PM me if interested 2 are running it right now, I want to make sure someone can go through the instructions and make it to the end before i post the link. Please have a computer to PM so i can help along the way.

Thanks

Edit: GOT ONE THANKS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
I feel like I'm the only one getting good downloads, even with my crap internet on wifi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aphlatoon:
If no one else is having this issue then I guess it's my hardware. I'll try re-downloading as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I would deff try re downloading and trying again. I think you will prosper.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
SS USERS AND FF BOYS AND GIRLS !!!!!! WE HAVE FIGURED IT OUT AND IT IS RUNNING GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to bathe my kids then i will update the OP and put the links and so forth so you can download and enjoy!!!

3 of us spent late nights on this to get it right for you!!!!

I will name everyone when i get through thanks tick tick tick tick tick ..............
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
FOR ANYONE ON SS/FF CAN NOW FLASH!!!! OP IS LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BESURE TO THANK klabit87 FOR CONVERSION,TESTING & JD33 FOR TESTING AND MAKING GREAT INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

WE ALL STAYED UP PAST 4AM TO GET THIS TO YOU. HOPE YOU LIKE IT !!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] {davros}:
can confirm xposed also working on the new ss rom..........
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Also Confirmed, SS is a go... Hopefully Stang will update the OP as I did it with only 3 steps(and about 6 taps on my phone screen).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
I see the SS instructions and am a little confused. My Wife's phone is on I545VRUAME7, Stock Verizon TW 4.2.2 with root and SS installed. So I cannot just flash this on an available SS ROM Slot? Finally convinced her to let me do something on her phone but she's afraid I'll "break it" as she says. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Problem is not everyone is experienced with android. I have 3 to 4 SS users and the FF method was also gone through to make sure that method works as well. Anyone who knows about Android is welcome to skip some steps if you know what your doing. I am happy to take suggestions on this. Please know that if you didn't follow the posted instructions don't post any issues as you didn't follow the OP. I don't want another repeat of before.....this was done to cover all bases if you will. Alot of you will notice you are not flashing wifi modules .... that's because they are baked into the Rom. Things we did to try and cut down confusion.

But as I am not SS or FF.. I can't confirm, so i am basing this off of others that have proven to know what they are doing. (Not saying your method won't work as it worked for you.)

Please let me know SS and FF people!!! If you want to try his way more than welcome just make sure you have the same BL and so forth. Just trying to make sure everyone in most situations can go specifically to those part of the instructions.

Going back to bed now. Lol

Doesn't seem to be Alot of SS users or FF users according to the downloads. But then again it wasn't fixed like it is now.

SS users please let me know what you think about the instructions. I am willing to make changes / updates to it just want to make sure it's good for all SS users. ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlhalz:
I really appreciate the hard work that it took to get lollipop TW on the S4. As long as devs like you are out there, my S4 can continue to stay up to date with the latest and greatest.

Is anyone else experiencing really low volume when using the headset jack? Audio through Bluetooth connection seems fine, but all audio through the jack is really low.

I haven't seen it mentioned. I know on Hyperdrive there was a volume hack option during the aroma set up. Is anything available for lollipop?

Thanks again stang.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rpoitras:
It makes me sad to see the crap that non-MDK users have to go through just to put stuff on their phone. Its really ridiculous that instead of trying to make the hardware and software better for everyone, they allocate those resources to try to find ways to lockout the people who are buying their product. It makes you wonder why we still throw our hard-earned money at them.

Google Play 505 error

I'm having Google Play updating issues. I opened YouTube this morning and it prompted me for an update, so I go to the Google Play and hit 'Update", but got an "unknown" 504 error. Thought it was because YouTube was set as a system app, so I converted to a user app. I try to update again and same 504 error. I uninstall. I attempt to reinstall and now get an "unknown" 505 error. According to the interwebs, that means that there's another version installed on the system with the same permissions, or at least remnants of it.

I've tried clearing the data on the Google Play Store, and deleting the instance of YouTube in the data/app folder but no luck yet. I've also heard to clear dataon Google Play Framework and to delete the Google account entirely and re-add to the phone which I haven't tried yet. I can't have my phone at work so I'll have to try around lunchtime. Attempting to restore via TiBU also doesn't work. I'm not sure if it's just YouTube or other apps, too. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how'd you fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
The OP states that updating YouTube will cause issues for some.

I haven't seen any of those problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Ah sh!t I didn't realize/forgot it was modded. What was modded about it? Is there a flashable .zip version of that anywhere I can install? I should still be able to install the regular YouTube app though, hmm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
I'm not entirely sure. I opened it to test that it ran.

But if you want you could uninstall the modded version for now until the update is put out then install the play store version.

Or you could wipe data/cache is the app info and start the app again then select later when it asks if you want to update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
No Odin mode? After that, you have two options:

-USB Jig

-JTAG??

I'm not sure how viable JTAG is, but at that point, just buy a nexus :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Like XxD34THxX stated i would try Jtag. If you can't get into download mode or service mode. Can you get into any mode or no?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChosenHero4:
Nope, I cant get into any mode. Won't turn on whatsoever. And trust me, I wish I could buy a nexus. Just don't have that much money.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Wow. Dang that's not good. I'm sure you have tried pulling the battery and so on. I am finding it weird that it won't turn on........try and see if you computer can pull your phone up with cable.(this is just trying a hail mary) I am not telling you to get the nexus as I don't want it. To each is own.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChosenHero4:
I'm pretty much positive that it's bricked, I just have no idea why. All I did was try and reflash the rom, and then FF wiped, then the flashing began and the phone just died.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] maddog00:
I tried flashing that zip file after xposed installer. It tells me the framework is not installed. Is it actually installed just doesn't know it?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Look in your app drawer. Check for xposed. If its there and you can open and Download a module and check it to make active and hotboot. Let.me know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
As long as it's still charged it should at least power on. That's where I am confused. Your saying it won't even power on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] akram2009:
What's about language ??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
It sounds like he has hard bricked it.

That's how mine acted, I flashed a custom recovery theme not realizing it had the recovery in it.

The phone would not power on in any way.

I had to send it off and have it jtagged.

It was only 35.00 but I lost MDK :(

I ended up selling it on swappa and getting another MDK S4.

sent from a Galaxy far far away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Dang... Well that sucks. Glad you got another MDK though. Thats what I still have. Thanks for the info. I figured it would at least power on. Crazy ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopedig:
hey stang5litre, i hit the thanks button but i didnt think that was enough. just want to say how much i appreciate the work youve put into this. I had been stuck on a 4.2.2 rom because there was nothing out there, til now. Im not sure ive seen a dev so available and active in a thread trying to solve everyones little problem. i may have had a manhattan or two, but thats when true feelings come out. i also thought you might like to see a post that wasnt asking for your help or telling you what tiny little problem one was having.. so cheers and thank you .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Thank you so much!!!! [emoji4] Much appreciated, also thsnks for taking the time to leave those kind remarks. I try to do the best that I can. I am glad your enjoying it.[emoji106] [emoji48]

If you ever have a questions feel free to PM me or just post on my thread.

I'm usually up with kids so sleep is a myth in my house.

Ps it is great to see a post without a issue lol.

Thanks again

TGIF!!!!!!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
Idk what happened but my phone was slow like super slow, and when I'd call someone it would take forever to dial. So I went back into recovery using NC5 flasher and wiped cache and dalvik, and flashed OC1 kernel before rebooting. Now my phone has no contacts, no way to add Google acct NO WAY, can't send text, no keyboard and when it said updating Android apps there was only 86 apps. I guess I need to Odin back to NC5 and probably jus stay on It
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] maddog00:
The app was in my drawer. After running the zip file to let it work, I downloaded modules and it seemed to be responding. I clicked on the framework category within xposed and it told me the framework was not installed. I thought maybe the mod prevented the app to see the framework. When I restarted, it would not get past the samsung boot screen. Had to start over. I'm afraid to try again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
This is on the alpha 3 version? Should look like this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Whatever works for you. Plenty of help on the thread to get you successfully on the rom. If your stumped just ask. Be glad to try and help you

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
When you set the pin you need to press the back button to get back out of the settings menu then it will stick.

Unfortunately doesn't work, at least for me.
