Just flashed slimbean on nexus 4. Works great except for orientation stuck in portrait. Been flashing my Vibrant for years so I'm not a total noob, but haven't posted much and can't post in developer forum yet.
Anybody else experience this? I flashed latest stable build and then AIO addon. Could that add on be the problem since I didn't flash the gapps alone first?

UPDATE
Tried reflashing ROM and Slim Gapps, but rotation is still broken. I've checked all of the settings and it is enabled in all of them.

Okay, did a little more searching and found the problem was the radio. I still had the .48 radio from 4.2.2. I didn't realize the ROM didn't include a radio/baseband. So I flashed this radio (http://d-h.st/hlR) from this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227) and all is well!

Hey guys I have recently rooted my Nexus 4 and left the stock rom on it. Now a few days later I am experiencing issues mainly with apps that change settings, like juicedefender or a cpu speed app.
I have done some research and according to juicedefender error log it shows I need to have busybox or I should have CyanogenMod.
Ok i hav 3 questions
1. Will installing busy box cause me to lose any data?
2. I know installing CyanogenMod ROM will clear all my data is there a way for me to backup need for speed and bad piggies?
3. Is there a way for me to keep my stock rom and fix these problems?

Since you're rooted all you need to do for backups is download Titanium Backup and use that to keep all of your data.
Alright im a noob at all this any idea if i should get cm nightly, stable or whatever version ? And if i go with release candidate can i change it to nightly in the future?

You will probably want to start with a stable release before jumping into a nightly. Nightly build aren't really known for stability.

To update cm all you need to do is download new rom, boot to recovery, flash rom and gapps, wipe cache, reboot. Of course this only applies if the rom base hasn't changed, which is infrequent.

If you are going to flash cm for the first time a wipe is required. Usually wipes aren't required when flashing a newer version of a Rom.
But will it wipe data automatically? No. Wiping data is an option you have to confirm in recovery.
Is that what you are asking?

Dear forum members,
I have used several Roms for my At&t galaxy s4 32gb and ranging from omega to the most recent shostock Rom with great success.
But my issue is as follows, my GPS will never lock on to any satellites since the latest shostock Rom was installed.
Ive tried full wipe, reflashing other roms that the GPS was working flawless on but with no luck.
I cant ever get a GPS lock where previously it worked great.
Any help would be greately apreciated since I really love this device and this isbthe first issue ive had with it since I bought it a few months ago.
Thank you

Check the settings for Location settings.
Also download GPS Test (free) from Google Play.
Sometimes Maps won't prompt to change setting for GPS and or WiFi.
Thanks for the response, I've done all of that but it just never locks on with any app, or tester. It just searches and searches, in the last week it started happening. Any other ideas?

I had the same issues and then I installed latest KT kernel and let Google maps use location reporting. Once I did that it locked with the quickness.

I updated my pa 3.69 to 3.94 without factory reset and rooting it again. Should it be a problem if I didn't install the new radio and bootloader because I tried to install it and it failed.

great! congrats. If you need any help, ask here instead of making another thread for it. I'll help along with many other users.
I decided to give cm10.1.3 a try now that it is stable. I've flashed cm on many devices without trouble including this s4. But this time when the phone booted, I had LTE displayed as connected in the status bar but couldn't get any throughput. 3g works fine when I switch to CDMA only. So as a test I flashed 10.2 nightly (which I have run before without issues) and no LTE with it either. So I dug up an old 10.1 nandroid which was fully backed in good shape and holy crap!! No LTE!!! So I flashed back to touchwiz nandroid and LTE works fine. What's up. Very weird. Any ideas.

Same here I'm having troubles with LTE on my s4 running the latest version of beanstalk ROM and I live in a LTE area and have always have been able to get LTE. Any ideas?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
No..I tried re-downloading the ROM from other sources. Still 4g connects but is super slow. Like 5 mins to open a web page. I have great 4g coverage at home usually. 3g Is working good though.

Im not sure but try a apn back up on stock rom, then reflash cm.

Apparently you can't backup APN on 4.x ROMs? Not without purchasing titanium backup at least
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
So I figured it out. 4g wasn't working because I'm an idiot and was wiping everything including system. Didn't realize there were settings that need to be left for cm to connect. At least that's the only reason I can think of. Hope this helps someone else so its not a total waste of forum space.

I wiped my system a few days ago when I was flashing the latest beanstalk build, that explains why late isn't working. What should I do to fix it?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
If you have a backup of stock or another touch wiz ROM, flash back to that. Then boot into recovery, and do a factory restore. That will wipe data,cache,and dalvic, but leave the system intact. Then just flash cm or other aosp rom and reboot. Should be good to go!

Just wanted to report that I came in here with the exact same problem and this fixed it for me as well. I was running the Pac Rom nightly and was pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. I too had formatted system just by force of habit. Maybe this should be mentioned in install tutorials not to do that.
I have a Nexus 4 running on 4.4.2 update base ROM. I've unlocked and rooted my phone, with multiple root tests to be sure. I've also downloaded the Franco kernel. Though its not working, so I assume its cause its a nightly version. From the information I've found those don't always work.
Back to my question though. My devices is a Mako, which goes along with being a Nexus 4 right. So why is it when I downloaded the cyanogenmod mako latest ROM it didn't work? Came up with an error comparing device and product as being mako, and some status 7 thing. I did a restore and now I'm here.
I've tried to install it view clockwork recovery, and from the ROM manager app. Both came up with those errors. Am I doing something wrong?

It looks like you don't have the latest version of cwm on you're phone. Try updating you're CWM to the newest version. Or install twrp recovery ( newest version and try again.
Be warned if you install twrp recovery then you're backup made in cwm recovery wont work should you wish to use it.
Below is a screen shot showing you're problem.

Thanks. I updated clockwork and it worked perfectly. Though its extremely annoying that I don't get my apps and data and all that I would normally get when doing a regular Google based ROM. Is there a way to get all that with custom ROMs? Do I just need to do a flash of Google play store or something?

If you flash Gapps immediately after flashing the ROM, it should give you the options to download your apps and system settings during initial setup, if that's what you're asking.

You need to flash gapps package for google apps like playstore, gmail..etc. Link are often given together in the OP of the rom thread.
Excellent. Thank you all. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for those! You've all been a great help.

One more question. Kernels. I know some are ment purely for custom ROMs. But is there a place I can get Kernels for a stock ROM? I haven't decided on a custom ROM yet, but I'd like to tweak this one as much as I can before.

They support both, the exception being with CM kernels.
