[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glynix:
Hello. Firstly, sorry if I didn't search hard enough. I'm coming from hyperdrive rom. I noticed on the 1st page of this thread it says in bright red letters that you need MDK to run the rom, but I also see download links for non-mdk, so i was slightly confused. So i hope that i'm able to run this on a non-mdk phone. I'm currently using the verizon galaxy s4 on stock NC5 that i just did from odin and then i installed the following - root, SS 3.75, and busy box all installed in the stock rom slot. Then i tried to create a rom slot 1 and then install stang5litre 5.0 via the instructions in the 1st post. What happens is that when i boot into that rom slot 1, it basically says safe strap disabled, and when i hit either go to recovery or continue to boot with the fresh rom install, it does not do anything. If it hit recovery it does not go anywhere and if i choose boot to phone it will load a blank screen, play the verizon boot up sound, and continue to have a blank black blank screen. Then i need to pull the battery and reboot and then odin again to get back to square one. What am I missing here or is this just not compatible with my phone? Thanks in advance guys and gals, i appreciate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MikePeterMcCabe:
Making a ROM slot does not work, you have to flash it on the stock ROM slot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glynix:
Ohhh derp. Will try. Ty.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
With lollipop you have yo flash In primary slot. Shows in the thread that its for MDK and SS users. Let me know where I have the confusion at so I can fix it please. You should boot right up with this process.

Is there a way to disable the "volume might be too high" warning when connected via BT? I think there might some xposed module, but wanted to see if there was easier way. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
You can use wanam module [emoji4] [emoji106]

Easiest way and it has a ton of features. But xposed module . I'll see if I can find anything on it. But that's the easiest way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Via Wanan. Xposed module
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiz0id:
Is there a way to install additional themes? The galaxy app store doesn't work with this rom btw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
That's because it's ported. There are more coming in v3. Other wise you can use layers as well. I think I have 12 theme in v3. Found some more but can't get them to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiz0id:
Looking foward to v3 then, thanks again for making such an awesome rom :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiz0id:
After going through the layers database, all the dark themes to be very poorly implemented on Touchwiz in general, do you have any recommendations for themes via layers? [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mugsy77:
[MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION], I am not current on Verizon as I am with AT&T, but will next rom have StageFright 2.0+ patches?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
All you have to do if make sure auto-download images and files in MMS is off. And stagefright is basically fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
It has whatever the base of the ROM has. OC1, OF1, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mugsy77:
Appreciate the suggestion, but I've read it will still be vulnerable, just not as much. I know AT&T thread for S4 has had patch a while, I just hoped Verizon would have one as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Yeah, well OF1 did nothing for that anyways
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] starkly_raving:
does this rom have backup assistant plus removed from settings?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mugsy77:
This is the patch I mentioned earlier. It's from: I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505OXAHOJ2_DBT Germany

Anybody knowledgeable on if it would work on this ROM by chance?

Getting Security Notice nag on notification panel

Just installed Flashfire and installed the mods and everything worked great!

Only problem I am experiencing is I getting a constant notification nag telling me "Security Notice Unauthorized actions have been detected."

Can't seem to get this to go away....anyone have experience with this?

MANY thanks to all the devs on this project!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
It's a flashable zip file. Only way to know is to flash it, though judging by the comments it appears to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkkzak:
Go into the Google settings app, then under security deselect the options to report device activity to google
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GamerOnOne:
Won't go past boot logo waited 10 minutes+ of1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
This is the same stuff as OF1 just from another country / variant same fail fixes. I won't be making this rom OF1 ever. OC1 is better.

Takes 7 to 15 mins from splash screen to boot. Make sure you followed the instructions to a tee.

It has backup assistant on it. Never had assistant plus on the s4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Sorry everyone at the hospital atm. But maybe away from the thread for a tiny bit as I have been spending to much time on android and real life is asking for bill money lol. So got to get to work!!!

But I'll be in and out as usual and there are nothing but good people in this thread . Minus 1 person ,which is banished from my thread.

Splash screen as logo? or boot animation?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Splash screen = boot animation. Don't go past 15 mins . If it doesn't boot pull battery and try and boot. If you did everything right shouldn't have any issues. What stage are you at currently?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GamerOnOne:
ATM i'm flashing back to stock

then reroot

and ill try again.

I did

wipe

rom (non mdk)

wifi fix

su beta

Won't load past samsung logo with custom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
That's the right order and files . Did you make sure FF didn't move wipe to the end ? FF does this you end up having to set the order twice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GamerOnOne:
No, I didn't check. Its still booting stock ill let you know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Ya before you hit that lighting bolt check the order again. FF does this for some reason.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GamerOnOne:
Finally got it up and going it was the wipe issue. Do you know how to get xposed up and running?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 3link22:

Hello have a problem here.

My phone was on OC1 rooted i fallowed the installation process to the point, but my phone is stock on the Samsung Custom screen? What can i do to get me booted up again? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkkzak:
Google settings app -->security -->verify apps -->deselect both options
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GamerOnOne:
Get the oc1 of1 stock restore tar (it won't wipe anything)

Flash in Odin ap

Reboot

Drag wipe to the top of flashfire after you add all the zips.

I have one more question:

Can I use flashfire to flash custom kernels, since I have a locked bootloader?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brezulja:
I am downloading it right now.

I did put everything in order, i dont know what went wrong.

I will try one more time and i will update the progress.

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
I had a warranty replacement GS4 arrive yesterday with 5.01 on it and was forced into life after safestrap and 4.4 :) This ROM has been an amazing find and I am loving it!

The only thing I can't seem to get working is the flashlight toggle. I have done the SQLite editor trick...and have done that before on other ROMs with no issue....but I can't get the torch to appear on this ROM for some reason. I am using "TorchLight" The Toolbox toggle appeared but not a flashlight or torch toggle

I removed the 3minit app from the ROM.....that's the only thing I can think of that could make my experience different from others in this thread that got the toggle to work by adding TorchLight

is there something I'm missing? Does 3minit do anything for the torch function?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
This one ?

What kind are you wanting??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Thanks [emoji3] . Make sure you have it like this TorchLight; 《-- has to end with a ;

But v3 has Flashlight built in [emoji6]

None of the so called devs would tell me how but if you know me that just made me more determined. Found the way to have all toggles . It's almost in testing no eta yet. Trying to get stuff worked out. [MENTION=5574802]Neffy27[/MENTION] PM me. Your in trouble for not liking the settings I spent so much time on..... to give all those effects and other mods. Lol [emoji12] jk. Not about the work part though .....pain in the arse.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Ha! Sorry....didn't really look at things for more than a minute after getting the ROM up and running....I like my statusbar icons to look stock and when I saw 3minit was the app making the change, I killed it before even looking to see if it was responsible for anything else in the ROM.

I did doublecheck the spelling and ended it with a semicolon and everything. That's strange. I've used SQlite many times before, this was the first time it hasn't made my day for me. But I was able to add the Toolbox toggle with gives me access to the flashlight so that'll be fine for now anyway....as we await your v3!

Awesome work man....thanks for putting in the time for us!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
3 minit doesn't interfere with anything. But I will have 3 different flash able systemUI a for v3 stock, 3minit one, then 3minit and charging effects. Mine is set like this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Locked bootloader can't flash custom kernels, only stock tweaked ones such as Surge's

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

It's fine! The first screenshot reminded me of albe's port which i didn't like (grid style). v2 (and v1) settings interface is what I've grown attached too. But I'm just one person. I'll flash v3 no matter what.

I hope your hospital visit isn't serious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Ya you can do list mode as well. I know not everyone likes the icons( you're just going to have to do with the new features lol ) . So I'll give you s6 files later on as I was trying to keep the color uniform . But hospital is for my kid [emoji22] . He's ok right now. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
You can't flash Any kernels but the factory one you're on. Have to be mdk for surge1223 kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Yeah, that's definitely what I have in SQlite... Wonder what I'm missing.. Is there another app I may have removed that the torch was dependent on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Nope that's all you have to do to get it. I can upload the torch.apk for you but that gives a widget. But may be worth a shot to see if it's some how blocking you. Don't see how it could but everyone's phone reacts different.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Sure, I'll take that and give it a try
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aphlatoon:
Have you tried ok, google "turn on flashlight" voice command?

That's what works for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
No. I'm sure that would work, and there are lots of other ways to do it. I've had the toggle on my pull down for so long.... Just a user preference
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ImpytheBiscuit:
I hear you. I haven't had time to flash this ROM because of work and and the time to backup and move all my crud and replace apps for lollipop equivalents is too time consuming.

Worst case, use Tasker with a flashlight app that has a plug-in for it and use whatever button of your choice to turn on the light.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Here you go. v3 has 30 toggles so don't worry. [emoji106] [emoji6] [emoji48] you can also use quick shortcut maker. But I like the toggle as well just way faster

Slow Charging

Since flashing, charging takes forever...as though I'm charging off the PC's USB port. I'm using an AC Anker charger that puts out 2.4 amps on the port.

Anyone experience this, or have a solution?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Check your cable. Seems like your cable is bad. You can see with this app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwhistler:
Of course, you are correct! I should have known better :D Gonna throw that cable out!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Not all USB cables are created equal I've learned.

looking forward to trying out V3. looks cool.

How to download v3 ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
Much confusion and can't seem to find the answer. I used flashfire to go from rooted NC5 to OF1 but i am still on NC5 bootloader. Which instructions do I use? OF1 installation instructions even though I'm technically still on NC5 bootloader or the FF installation instructions? Help Please.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwhistler:
You're

sure

you used the installation instructions in the OP under the section labeled...

FF Installation

Flash Fire Instructions for Roms before OC1

You followed the instructions in that section precisely? Your phone boots? You went from Kit Kat to Lollipop and should have used the instructions from that section....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reliant_turbo:
its not done yet. it looks cool in the screenshots that he posted a few posts back.

Brian
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
I'm about to FF this on an NC5 S4. Just posting so I can find this thread easier on the xda app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Make sure before you hit the bolt that wipe is at the beg.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
I used this first http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-update-to-i545of1-5-0-1-keeproot-t3182544 whcih gave me a rooted OF1 but with bootloader NC5. I have not tried anything in this forum yet. My phone is working with no issues,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwhistler:
I don't know, honestly. I tend to be compulsively cautious about these things and would not personally mix and match. One way or another, you're phone will get wiped, so why not start clean with a full OTA of OF1. From there, getting root is pretty easy using Wondershare, and then you can FF stang's Rom without the uncertainty of "mix and match." That would be my approach if I were in the same boat...

---------- Post added at 03:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

So I've been trying to read up on xposed and Wanam but there are so many fractured discussions on it I can't make heads or tails of it. The Xposed site is really confusing (for me) and while I would enjoy utilizing these two apps I also don't want to mess up my very nicely running stang5litre S4.

If anyone on this thread has done it, would appreciate describing the proper process :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Hey stang, what is the order the FlashFire processes the list of actions--top first/down to bottom or bottom to top?

I had the wipe at the top. Must've wiped everything because I only boot into recovery mode now. I'm about to Odin back to NC5 and try again.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Yes make sure wipe is at the top. If your on NC5 I would use SS much more reliable. But from FF your gonna have wipe(at top ), rom,update zip,kernel, superSU(at bottom).

Before you hit the bolt button check to make sure wipe did not change to the end. (Does this a lot ) when it does just press and drag in the right order again and hit the bolt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
I think it moved on me. I've got NC5 back now. I'm going to root, install SS and go that route. Thanks.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well that worked great except I forgot to wipe/factory reset while in SS lol. Everything seems to be working except I have Peel SmartRemote among others, and vzw apps still on there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Well that's good. Tech you could use the NC5 flasher to into SS and reflash if you want lol. Or use a good tool to take it all out [emoji106] [emoji48]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
I was going to just remove the bloat left-overs, but I'm noticing problems (FC's) due to the dirty flash no doubt. Looks like I'll just reflash properly this time lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Lord . Sorry man at least this time will be your last time for a minute and the bloat will already be gone lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
I followed the instructions in. http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-update-to-i545of1-5-0-1-keeproot-t3182544. So now I am on rooted of1 with nc5 bootloader. I want to check out your rom but not sure which instructions to use? W ant to use FF but do I use the instructions for of1 or the general FF?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
[MENTION=5415037]seadooman[/MENTION] - Stop quoting the original post and I already replied to you here. The instructions are specific to bootloader, not baseband.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
:o

Sorry about that. Won't happen again. Thought that might be the way to get a reply from stang5litre.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
We're you able to figure it out?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
I have had loading issues with the XDA site. Still questioning what needs to be done to use flashfire to use this rom. Please correct me if I am wrong. I need to flash back to kitkat using ODIN then root and use flashfire to install this rom. Is that correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
I reply to almost every post. But there are a ton of others that are very knowledgeable and can tell you exactly what I would tell you. But if you do want to direct a question to me, which I do not mind you have to put a. [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION]. use Samsung phone info to find out your base. Baseband is radio. You don't want that. Then follow the Instructions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
I would just use SS since you're on NC5.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bubbalv29:
[MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION]

I distantly recall seeing you request testers for the next build, but I can't seem to find them now?

Any possibility I could help out with that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Not yet. Thanks for offering!!!. Right now still working on v3 but will keep you in mind. [emoji106]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bubbalv29:
Willing to give any details about what version of Android v3 will be, or what improvements will be made? I just installed Safestrap on my S4 and I'm looking to install a ROM, and your ROM seems the most promising. I'm wondering if it's worth waiting or whether I should just install the current version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
It will still be 5.0.1 as we have a 5.1.1 port hybrid. Which means xposed version would still be for 5.0.1. So I don't see the point....as of yet lol. There is to much to list atm. Your good to flash v2. After I get done with v3 I still let it go my testers and donatees. For trial and any issues they find.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bubbalv29:
Alright, thanks. I'll keep my eyes open and flash v2 for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
SS or FF

I have never used safe strap is it "safer" than FF?? In safer I mean less likely to do permanent damage if I screw up. I checked my bootloader and baseband with phone info app. Says Bootloader version I545VRUFNC5 ,and baseband I545VRUGOF1,. Think I feel safer using FF. If I am correct that I would use the info from "OF1 Installation" ? Do I have that right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
FF is in beta still so that is the most dangerous imo and the numerous posts regarding FF in this thread speak for themselves.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
It can be just as dangerous. Originally you could only create extra ROM slots to install/flash on thereby keeping the stock ROM safe. Be sure to flash this over the 'Stock ROM Slot' in safe strap. Otherwise it won't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] seadooman:
Safe Strap

I have been reading until I'm cross eyed. Can anyone point me were the best safestrap info is?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] marinegundoctor:
Has anyone gotten xPosed working that can help me out? I followed the [UNOFFICIAL] Xposed for Samsung Lollipop by arter97 but the xPosed installer (v3.0 alpha 4) keeps telling me the framework is not installed.

I flashed (or tried) the xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon.zip from arter97's post. I'll try a lower version of that, but if anyone knows of a better way let me know. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwhistler:
I'm having the same experience. When I flashed Xposed, I got an error message saying,

E: Footer is wrong

No idea what that means :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkkzak:
On this rom you need to flash the "xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon_requestConcurrentGC.zip". It's really weird because on the PhoeniX rom port you need to flash the xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon.zip

But just flash the requesConcurrentGC and you should be gravy. Also there is a nice material xposed installer here: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/material-design-xposed-installer-t3137758 :good:

Well it seems the v71 worked afterall. I will try that material design installer though I think.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwhistler:
Obviously I'm missing something and am at a loss. I'm on a clean stang installation, installed the installer.apk (and did not open) then booted into recovery and flashed the v71.zip file.

The installation reports

E: Footer is wrong

E: Signature verification failed.

Reboot and open installer which says "The Xposed framework is not installed."

I feel like I'm burrowing down deeper into the rabbit hole. :p
