New build is up, features Home Screen Rotation, also my BT connects to my Sony sound receiver great now, let me know if you find anything else not working!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] srscott:
Bluetooth

Bluetooth still not working for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bmayne81:
So I decided to give this ROM a spin. This ROM is very nice so far. Only thing I've run into is ui rebooting while installing app from store. Other than that LTE,GPS,Bluetooth, tethering all work for me. I even threw a theme on it and everything is fine. Keep up the good work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] foamdaddy:
I successfully dual booted this rom with the od2 modem. Sim is recognized have full LTE but attempting to access carrier settings results in fc

great job my man.

Not Works

The Incoming Calls Do not works, las llamadas entrantes no funcionan, me llaman y no aparece la llamada, pero si le suena a la otra persona, como que me esta llamando!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
Doing great so far, glad to see the Sprint version still supporting, most people are avoiding CDMA variants
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] greeg32:
Everything works! Thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sensei_777:
Any OH1 Modem only files? I searched everywhere the only one I found the link is down :/ would be so grateful..thanks a lot. The ROM is great and everything is working but my sim card since I don't have OH1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
i have the oh1 modem.bin and hlos files somewhere on one of my devices, though i am not sure which one, i will dig around a bit later and upload them somewhere for you. i wasn't able to find them elsewhere either, so i ripped them from a full firmware. [MENTION=4590326]bthorne79[/MENTION] may have the modem as well.

This file is for 720T devices only, i dont have the single band OH1 modem

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
im not 100% sure this is the OH1 modem but it seems to be the last modem file i used and i'm on OH 1 with the original 720 so if someone can confirm..

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
oh did I hear my name lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
lol, too good for us now with your N5, are you? j/k, thought maybe you could help out with the modems, but i guess it's been taken care of. Looking forward to the 6.0 OctOs builds btw
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
N5 and g3 oct-mm is coming along nice won't be much longer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
titanium says its not rooted. what superuser is correct for this? Also it want to reformat my sd card, even though its readable on my pc, ugh..

I tried reinstalling this thinking root was lost as I used philztouch to install, I loaded twrp, re-installed, used the root fix option but after it updates google apps, it just cycles over and over. dim logo, bright logo, tiny vibrate, repeat..

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

ok, i gave up on this rom for now. TWRP would not allow it to boot nor restore my backup, i reverted to philztouch 5.18.2 and that restored my backup fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bmccoy11:
I made an ODIN flashable .tar.md5 of the OH1 Firmware (includes the bootloader and modem) and flashed it successfully as AP through Odin 3.10.7, but CM13 doesn't seem to show that the baseband version has changed, would anyone know why? What am I doing wrong?

https://www.mediafire.com/?7aql7db451xwe27

EDIT: Figured out why the baseband version didn't change - I forgot to check "Phone Bootloader Update" in Odin before flashing it. Now I'm my baseband version is OH1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
This was a modem file, not a bootloader. I'm still on mf9 bootloader and I can flash any modem fine. Sorry if none of my files worked, i cant seem to find the original.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bmccoy11:
Sorry, I had to re-upload it and edit the post to include the complete firmware. It would be nice if someone else could test this firmware.

---------- Post added at 09:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 PM ----------

Is anyone else's phone app force closing when trying to open carrier settings? I can't update my carrier configuration to get service working on my phone...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Hey everyone, sorry for no updates lately. I moved across country and have been without internet. Net will be hooked up tomorrow and I'll cook a new cm build, also be sure to check out my octmm. This was a test build for me to build octmm. I will maintain this cm ROM as long as possible, school is about to start back up and I'll have little free time.

Receive massages but can't make or receive calls

After updating offical lollypop to this room i now I'm receiveing massages but I can't make or receive calls :crying:,,,

( my sim is programming, so it says insert sim card

the modem is OH1)

I hop u can help:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Setow:
Its been a while since I flashed a new modem, i'm still on MK5 with my L720T. Do we need to go back to stock ROM to flash the modem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Yes, I downloaded the complete OH1 firmware from sam mobile and flashed via heimdall. After that root again, install twrp and flashed a rom. The download may take hours.

New build 1-05 is up, as always do a fresh install, install gapps right after the rom and everything should work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
I don't go back to stock, I just flash the modem files with Odin or heimdall and keep it moving... Still on ng5 bootloader.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Setow:
Yes I was thinking the same. Thanks for clearing that up!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Setow:
Hmm yea I tried just flashing the modem, it failed. Anyways so I put my phone into download mode and then flash the entire OH1 firmware via Odin AP mode? What boxes do I need to have checked?

edit: nvm i got the OH1 modem via odin.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] alssadah:
Receive massages but can't make or receive calls

After updating official lollipop from sammobile to this rom everything almost works great, but now I'm only receiving massages and I can't make or receive calls and when I try to send a massage or make a call it says "network is not available"

( my Sim is programming, so i have a massage on the toolbar "insert sim card"

My modem is OH1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thecomputerdoctor:
Hi and greetings from Greece,

I got this Sprint S4 phone from China for my wife, it has a NG2 firmware and KitKat, will this ROM work with this, also enabling Mobile Data icon, which is nowhere to be found?

I don't really care about warranty (f***ing KNOX is already 0x1) since I already flashed it with a custom Marshmallow ROM to find the sound stopped working (should be because of changing the firmware?) (so I recovered it to its KitKat again) Please if anyone can help, pm me!

Many thanks for your work!

p.s. since I'm new on this forum, my apologies if this post in this thread is nonsense, please someone move it elsewhere, somewhere it fits.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
The problem it sounds like a lot of you are having is I'm unsure if you can unlock the oh1 radio to use a network different then sprint. If you update your modem/radio to oh1 you lose your cdma unlock. I believe the last modem that was able to be unlocked is ng2, and this rom will not work with ng2 radio, you will get the no sim issue. My s4 is still using sprint, I have made builds for every s4 carrier, just have not shared because I am unable to test them. For the sound issue goto settings -> sound and make sure and ring and notification sound is selected. Lmk if you guys find anything else.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thecomputerdoctor:
thanks for the reply dude, sim card was working perfectly with the local vodafone-greece network, so it is unlocked (well with no mobile data icon to connect to the web without wifi again of course), but the sound was going on and off without any reason untill it stopped completely (at first I had to reboot it to come back - never even heard the turn-off sound) (same thing happened with the initial (mother) ROM after a few weeks of use but after restoring it a few days ago, sound is great no prob (at least so far))

'so there is no solution/hack/mod/alternative way for this bloody ng2 phone to have internet without being on wifi?!' or 'am I stuck with this f***ing Sprint ROM?!' or 'would it work properly if I tried to downgrade it?'

also, would I brick it if I flashed it with I9515 firmware? Devices are exactly the same aren't they?

p.s. we both have a lenovo s920 for a some years now, lately with a custom kitkat ROM working perfectly - I though I would upgrade her device to a better one, but I don't think I'll ever buy a samsung device again... especially this KNOX thing is such an unacceptable crap!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Sir Osis of Liver:
I seem to be having an issue with making or receiving calls while a bluetooth device is connected. In my car or on headphones, if I try to make a call or I receive one, the bluetooth crashes immediately. The bluetooth audio is working fine while listening to music etc, it seems to only happen with phone calls.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
No, i9515 is slightly different, and I discourage you from flashing roms and firmwares related to it.

Edit: there are a few tutorials floating around xda about unlocking s4 for use on other carriers, but it requires you be on specific firmware and modem, and then at that point you will be unable to utilize this Sprint rom anyway
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thecomputerdoctor:
ok dude, i9515 is out of the question.

where can I find that specific firmware and modem, I would love to try anything since I don't give a flying sh*t for the Sprint ROM!

I also don't care if its android 4.4 or 4.4.2 or 5.0 or 5.1 or 6.0 as long as it fully works like my S920!

p.s. I suppose she doesn't want much of a smartphone, just voice calls, sms, wifi and mobile data and this colornote app - no games, no heavy apps, even no google apps etc. - it isn't much to ask for, is it? (well I thought in the year 2016 this is just basic stuff) (and the ebay sale was just writting 'phone unlocked' - no sprint no KNOX nothing of all this crap)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
what network are you actually on? i think i am confused about what you are trying to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thecomputerdoctor:
Vodafone-greece. Isn't there any way to take off from this nice phone everything that has to do with Sprint? She will never use it in the US anyways (I don't think we'll ever travel that far anyway!)

I can give you every detail from this phone if you like... possibly there are even codes etc. that could be useful for someone? I dunno...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thecomputerdoctor:
also this is the ROM (I couldn't embed it, since I have less than 10 posts - its called android-6-0-root-for-galaxy-s4-jdc-team) I tried out with this Sprint S4, hell I dunno how I found it but I guess internet is so f***ing chaotic nowadays...

I don't want to flood this thread anymore with irrelevant noob stuff so if anyone can help, please pm me, I would really appreciate it!

Again many many thanks to the developers for CyanogenMod (even being a noob I have successfully flashed a few phones/tablets with it and its simply the best!)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dokbot:
How stable is this rom for everyday use? Or should I wait?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
My first try at it didnt take, it didnt give me root access for whatever reason. just be sure you make a backup in recovery before you try it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Wait if you need full functionality from your phone at all times, this is a WIP until Cyanogenmod releases and official build. I no longer use my s4 everyday, hopefully someone else can help you out. Just be sure to do a full backup before you flash so you can always restore. This is built for a SPH L720, it may or may not work with other s4 models, I have not tested it. If you guys can keep listing problems I'll try to line them out. New build is up I didn't get a chance to test bluetooth, but everything else seems to be working well.

I'm not able to get LTE working on my Sprint S4. Is this just me?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Sir Osis of Liver:
I can tell you I have a Sprint S4 and LTE is working for me. Perhaps a PRL update would help? I haven't done one in a while though. Only thing not working for me is phone calls via bluetooth (switches to handset & bluetooth connection drops).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] princebabyeater:
ok, so how can i get to OH1? im on nae still. is it as simple as flashing a OH1 rom, or do i have to odin a OH1 tar and root that, then go into this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
roms dont include modem files, find an OH1 modem file you can odin to the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mattzeller:
It's a lot easier for you to download stock OH1 from http://www.sammobile.com and flash that via Odin. That will update your modem and bootloader.

fyi, tried it again last night, it's still not rooted.

Finally! I realized my mistake! I downloaded the very first version! You don't realize how excited I was when I rebooted with the latest version and LTE and Bluetooth was working.

Did you turn root access on?

I didnt know it was a toggle, most roms are rooted by nature.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rdp1234:
I couldn't get the latest version to root either. I don't think su was even installed?

The 12-26 build is working flawlessly for me. Is there any major changes between this build and the latest?

Mine came rooted. I installed busybox and lucky patcher and xposed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] korvox:
Darn it, this rom doesn't work with Freedompop. On stock OK3 4G works out of the box, I do a PRL / Profile update, reboot to TWRP, reset and flash CM13, and then Carrier settings in Mobile Networks crashes com.android.phone and there is no data connection at all, 3 or 4g. Was really hoping to get the merged sd / storage since the S4 has notoriously little room on it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] knoc:
Carrier settings crashes for me too. 4g works though

I definitely had to fiddle with the apns and had to reboot a few times to get it working. Not sure what exactly I did to fix it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ThomasJoseph315:
Hello :)

I thought I would post my experience thus far on CM13. The version I have installed is "cm-13.0-20160116-UNOFFICIAL-jfltespr.zip". So far it is amazing. I actually tried CM12.1 as well but I had some issues with CM12.1 that did not follow over to CM13 (yay). The most noticeable was signal and LTE connections. My signal is much stronger on the CM13, not sure why, but if there are specific's I'd love to know the answers. As per LTE (and MMS) I had to surf the web to find a zip patch that fixed my APN's (MMS) to get it working (I technically use Boost Mobile).

Boost Mobile APN Fix

Things that need fixing:

The only odd thing I noticed, which I'm hoping for a fix is LTE. When I am on wifi then I switch to LTE sometimes the LTE does not come on. There is a condition that when it happens I have to manually reset the radio in my phone for it to connect. If I had to guess, I am not a programmer, it is when the phone come out of a deep sleep. When I try to reproduce this it doesn't work, I think the phone has to sit for a while in hibernation mode or something while wifi is on with the screen off for this effect to happen, again not really sure, but that seems to be when it happens. The way I manually reset the connection is by swiping down from the top press and hold the mobile connection and then press "Carrier Settings" which on a CDMA, or at least on my phone I get a crash saying "Unfortunately, the processes .com.android.phone has stopped" and then it reboots allowing LTE to connect. Not sure this is the best way to be doing this, but it works.

UPDATE: I actually might have sound a solution to the radio issue. In the developer options there is an option "Cellular data always active", by default this is turned off, turn it on. I'll check over the next few days if this fixes this issue.

Things I'd like to see:

When I had CM12.1 installed the trebuchet launcher on there was pretty nice. My favorite thing out of there was the cube rotation, I am sure others have their own as well. Bring the full launcher from CM12.1 to CM13 please :D

If there is anything else I can do being one of the few Boost Mobile users on here let me know, I'd love to help. Anyway, first time user over the last month or so, I love the clean feeling of no bloatware. What started my whole journey was the fact I was having issues with the stock rom. I kept getting that Jan. security update, but when I installed it my UI disappeared. After 3-4 times of this and the need to remove battery killing bloatware I looked around for alternatives.

Ok,.. I have a very, very, very special request. Can their please be a SPH-L720T Variant of this so us triband users can get Spark back?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
If you have a triband device, all three bands are utilized when available regardless of what ROM you flash. This has always been the case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ThomasJoseph315:
Anyway to verify this? Like actually see the 3 bands working? As said above,.. I do have LTE working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] liquidrea1ity:
Yeah, go to a cell site you know to have b41 active and run a speed test. If it's above 30 Mbps, you're on band 41. "Standard" LTE, like the single band s4 runs on band 25, and usually doesn't exceed 27 Mbps. The other band is 24, same deal, much slower than the 2.5 GHz band 41.

There's no software that I know of that will tell you specifically what band you are on unless you are running touchwiz.
