So I flashed the tmobile wicked rom v4 for samsung galaxy s4 onto my at&t s4 with ktoonsev kt touch wiz kernel 6-23-2013. Everything seems ok but when I hit the power but for the screen to go asleep or what it is, it looks like a tv turning off like on a aosp rom. Is this normal or should this not be like this? And can I get awesome beats equalizer on this stock rom aswell?

KT kernel 6/23 has a few bugs on a couple roms, not naming them either, roll back to the 6/10 version, should fix the problem. been there done that.
Oh yeah, do forget to wipe dalvik, and cache before you flash, but I should have to tell you right? You know that.
Good luck.
Your welcome

None of those ROMs have a Sprint kernel built in them, so even if you were able to get them to boot, which you obviously didn't, you would most likely have non-working data (3G & 4G), WiFi, etc.
Stick with the ROMs that are in the dev sections of the Sprint GS4 variant and you'll be fine. There are others that have claimed to be able to get non-Sprint variant ROMs to work, but YMMV.
Good luck!
It happen to me as well. But i just make sure i force a delete Data and it got off it.
I was in rooted stock.
I flash an incomplete Team Sonic rom.
Dawn download...
I try to restore it wont boot, i flash the Cf root with odin that got me on a loop, i then did a force data delete and done.
Not the same in the way but might help.
So freak out, no rom no back up
Hahaha

If you're trying to flash i9505 onto i9500
That's the first problem, different chip sets wherein probably lies the issue. Flash what is built for Qualcomm on Qualcomm based phones, Same goes for Exynos, don't try to mix and match.
You should run SPRINT ROMs to.start off. Its possible to run Verizon ROMs with working 3G with some small edits.

Go to the sprint galaxy s4 forum, it's definitely your problem. Try any rom, they are all good, and once you are comfortable with the rom, try a custom kernel for your rom. And read the thread about the rom you're flashing, lot of times there's good tips and options you otherwise wouldn't know about...

wow you really are BRAND new to posting see you got one post, well Welcome to the community. Now to your dilemma all those roms you tried to flash are not mad for our phones so you were in the wrong forum when you downloaded those roms. Now you can use those roms as long as you flash a SPRINT kernel after flashing one of those roms. Now your not guaranteed to get data working it's been hit or miss for many. Try flashing one of the roms from our Dev section, you'll be happy

He can only flash I9505 roms I9500 roms could brick his phone because it is ment for the international exynos version. I9505 roms are fine if you flash a sprint kernel after flashing the rom because they have the same hardware other than the cellular radios are different. (Depending on the rom data or voice or both might not work) I would not recommend flashing and roms not intended for the SPH L720 because I havent been able to get data on any of thoose roms. Hope this helps.

I have recently been switching my ROMs up alot and have been having issues going from AOSP back to TW through regular flashing of the ROMs.
I generally don't have any problems switching from TW to AOSP, but whenever I flash the other way I am just left with a black screen after the Sammy logo.
To effectively get TW back on my device I have to Odin back to stock and then Odin flash a recovery and start from scratch.
I was curious as to the rest of the communities experience with this as I may just be missing a crucial step when switching between the two systems.
I usually format the /system and do a factory reset and wipe both caches
Does anyone else have a problem like this?
sounds like a kernel issue since your wiping system and data and cache? so i wiould flash another tw kernel when going back to tw if it doesnt boot, i use the kt kernel.

Hello all. As I wrote in my title, I'm just coming back to the s4 after being gone for about a month. I've flashed a few roms and I've noticed that data stops working on almost all the ones I've tried. I tried the Google edition and flashed a different kernel to get WiFi working--when I did WiFi worked but data was broken. Then I tried tri force, data did not work. Finally I tried the one with the weird name (sorry--I know that doesn't help much but I know viper appears in quite a few places in the thread). I am currently on liquid smooth (cm based 10.1) and thankfully it's flawless. I love it but I like variety and I wish I could find a debloated TW rom to play around with. Why it's the data borked on so many of them? I'm not exactly a noob--been an android user for years and I've flashed many a roms. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, unless there's something different or weird with the s4. Can anyone kindly shed some light on my predicament? I'm now downloading negalite. Gonna see if that one has functioning data. It almost seems as tho you have to flash a custom kernel all the time now to get data. Is this right? Thanks in advance!

Been on Triforce since July with KTkernal and haven't had any issues at all. Negalite is a good one, I like it a lot. If you stick with it think about setting up svn as there's lots of updates.

Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
I have no idea why as I've tried everything I can think of and read but aosp runs better on my S4 than tw, as crazy as that sounds its been true for me. I love Aosp so I'm good. I'm on mf9 via otas and tried all recoveries made and always end up with some type of system or phone fc or the "detected an app".. .blah blah warning which annoys the crap outa me so I just stay on aosp as there are a ton of great ones for us and they work wonderfully -the once in a while call bug which I do not come across that much really ams when I do I made a shortcut for fast reboot via rom toolbox and just hit it when it happens and its good.

Just FYI.....If you flash a TW MF9 rom with the stock kernel and WiFi is broken after boot (can and has happened with Negalite, TriForce, etc) there is a modified stock kernel that can be flashed to fix if needed.

I must be lucky, because I have had no such issues with any rom (AOSP or TW). If I flash the stock rooted MF9 rom followed by the stock MF9 kernel, I have wifi and data. Same goes for any other TW rom as well as every AOSP rom I've tried.

I was wondering is it possible for a phone to hard brick from recovery from possible virus? I rooted and installed rome on my and my girlfriends phone with no issues at all i update mine seems like daily lol " A problem i got" anyway.... I rooted and installed a rom on my friends Sprint s3 with cwm (not touch) and Wicked Rom (The Latest) using some method and Hard Bricked it but it was crazy cuz in recovery it would scroll up and down on its own and select by it self i installed stock rom and reboot well full wipe and such. What could cause cwm to act in such a way? The side rockers seem to be fine. The power as well.... Anyone have an idea?Do you think a virus could cause that? He watches a lot on net porn so i was wondering.

I can't really see a phone getting a "virus" in recovery. I'm thinking either he's using a recovery for a similar device, but not his, or there is data corruption.
as for it acting weird could also be failing hardware
Seems like the recovery is messed up. Go back to an older fully functioning recovery.

Everything else runs amazing on this ROM except I can't turn wifi on at all. It says turning on and never does. Ive also tried to take the wifi folder from system\etc on a working ROM and re add it in to the super nexus system. That didnt work either. Any ideas on what I can try next?
