Wifi Tether Fix
For those who don't have Tasker (I don't) I wrote a quick and dirty app that you can use to quickly switch tethering on/off.
Posted (with source) on githubt, unfortunately as a noob I can't post links, so some assembly required (remove all underscores) - github[dot]com_/_asciicker_/_GalaxyS4WifiTether
Usual warranty applies: Don't be stupid. If you ignore clause one, everything that follows is not my fault.

Installing AOSP S4 GE (Safestrap) on a phone running 4.4.4/NJ4 already
NOOB.
The instructions for installing the AOSP on AT&T S4 found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/help/qa-s4-google-edition-t2912742/post53538983
States:
Update:
4.4.4: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByC...E02ZlJRQkgxTWM (requires 4.4.3)
My phone is already running the stock 4.4.4 from AT&T.
Should I install the 4.4.3 AOSP ROM as indicated after wiping? Or should I install the 4.4.4 AOSP ROM immediately?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, Airdroid has stopped.
Since, I fear that part of this issue may be related to this rom, I was wondering if you guys knew why the newest version of airdroid was failing at login/startup of the app. I receive the error message "Unfortunately, Airdroid has stopped" every time I attempt to open it. Is anyone else having that problem? And if so, did you find a solution?

Is your SELinux permissive? I'm on one of the other GPE's but Airdroid works fine for me. I started using it because I dropped my phone and damaged the AMOLED and it bleed and is now almost entirely blacked out

SeLinux is set to permissive

SELinux is set to permissive. It's only been since the new update that I've been having problems. I've tried restarting the phone and deleting and reinstalling the app, but nothing has fixed it with that minimalistic troubleshooting. If you can tell me how to troubleshoot it further, I'm definitely willing to give it a try.

First time
Hi,
I have AT&T Stock ROM, rooted and unlocked. Managed to install Safeatrap 3.71. How do I install a Custom ROM? All the files of the size around 300-400mb I have tried to install does boot, just loops after installing in Safestrap.
Samsung S4 SGH-i337
Thanks.
André

Hello, great work on the ROM! I'm running Verizon NC5 with safestrap, everything works as mentioned. I haven't read if the IR is functional for running smart ON or any other TV remote. It doesn't seem to work for me since I flashed this ROM but did on others. Either way I'm staying put, just wondered. thanks for your time.

Lollipop
AT&T just pushed out the OTA update for the galaxy s4. does that mean you will be releasing the lollipop version of this rom anytime soon

@houstonn was originally developing but stopped in June due to computer failures which is being resolved soon. His last build of 6/29 was on 4.4 sources and required the modem of stock 4.4.
The current builds supplied by @ayysir and now @jakew02 are on 4.2 sources which would require that specific modem.
Which ones exactly not sure as I am not familiar with every carrier version only sprint.

It has been stated in the ROM thread multiple times that you must use a 4.2 STOCK JB MODEM for best compatibility. Any other modems you guys use is solely at YOUR OWN DISCRETION. @MeestaAytch they should know what to use at this point but thanks for clarifying again for those who don't want to search before posting :highfive:
@jakew02 no problem. I know it's tiring repeating the same information but from what I've seen in my time using XDA.... It'll never change.
I'm glad you devs still continue doing what you're doing for us though knowing this nonsense goes on.

A few bugs
Hi,
The thread is too big for me to go thru it post by post so I'll just make a few questions and hopefully I'll get some answers. I flashed this ROM and it was working flawlessly. I only found very few bugs like not being able to set up multiple recurrent alarms because the app would freeze and there was another bug but I can't remember. The problem I find frustrating is with the text messages or SMSs. At first I was not receiving SMSs. Then I was receiving them but I couldn't send any. I returned back to stock VS98024a and I'm still having the same problem but at least I'm getting a pop-up when "General problems: cause code 96". I have googled this several times in several ways and can't seem to find a solution, not even on the Verizon site or help app on the phone. I need help with this please.

Please state exact filename and order of wipe/flash.
Just tried the test build for D802. Booted at LG logo for a while then screen turned black with 2 red lines and one green vertical line. I was so sure I was gonna get the permanent black lines but then again I read that the damaged screens are caused by already faulty hardware under high heat.
Anyways, I panicked and then I restarted the phone by pressing power + down. Then I got the weird boot sequence like everyone above describes and it boots into the OS. Thank God I got no black lines! However it wasn't stable for me as the phone rebooted itself twice within the span of 20 minutes. I'm going back to 13/10 build for now.
Any d802 users flashing latest twitter released rom can you please report here if jdi or lgd and whether or not weird logo appeared?
I'm on jdi and had weird logo appeared after clean flash. I did not let the rom boot and reflashed previous version without further problems
FYI, houston's latest works great so far on the VS980. Clean flash, using RenderKernel R24.
So i have the vs980 and i currently have xdabbebs rom on my phone, but i want to try PA. Can someone explain how to flash a rom over another rom, or is there something else i should do. i tried it once by flashing with twrp and it just hung on the lg sreen. luckily i had a back up

Migrating from one ROM to another is for me like this:
1. Nandroid backup
2. Wipe all except sdcard (yes, wipe system)
3. Flash new ROM
Be sure to always have a Nandroid backup!
And always check what baseband (aka radios or modem) your new ROM is requiring.
-___-
If you are UPDATING your current ROM, I.e. flashing a new build of let's say paranoid android, you can flash the updated file right on top of your old system. That is called DIRTY FLASHING and it's actually risky, so please, always do Nandroid backups!
-____-
Peace
Thank you for the reply. I tried doing it the way you suggested again and i get the same results. I wipe everything that is necessary and when i try to install the zip it immediately says failed

Ok
I would;
Update my custom recovery to the latest
Download recommended baseband, to be on the safe side
Redownload the ROM
Check the md5-checksum
Retry to install it
Flash the recommended baseband, better safe than sorry
Never give up
Peace
Hi guys i just flashed the newest build and out of all the roms i have flashed i have never seen this problem. After i flashed i have no sim service at all. Done a clean install still no good.

Hi
If I'm already on R11-2, how do I update? Do I just flash this to the same slot (after backing it up)? Do I need to flash the NI2 firmware tar again?

Flashing From Stock
Sorry for a total noob question, but I'm new to flashing and I'm paranoid
It says in the first post to do a full wipe if coming from a different ROM... Would stock TW count as a different rom? Or can I dirty flash this to the stock slot without doing anything else?

No worries ask away. Yes stock TW would be considered a different ROM.
Not sure if anyone is having this similar problem, but I cannot seem to get the flashlight toggle to work. I flashed the fix file multiple times and still nothing. Any ideas? (I'm on R12-2)
S Health Crash
I'm having healthservices crash constantly. I went from "stock" rooted 4.4.4 to your 12-2 release with a dirty flash. Do I need to wipe anything? For now I turned off S health and everything else seems to be working fine.

As stated in the OP, flashing from a different ROM (stock is a different ROM) you need to clean flash.

NI2 Firmware
So, what happens if I don't flash the NI2 firmware with ODIN after flashing the ROM with safestrap? In my haste to get this up and running I may have run out of the house before flashing the firmware. As of now it's running fine and it says my build is OptimalRom. I can see Viper has installed and the volume up flashlight tweak is working. It seems to be mostly there short of the extra toggles in notifications.
Chances are I'm going to get home later and fix this, but I was just curious because at the moment my phone is running great.

It would probably work on other firmwares (since rooting NI2 requires downgrading), just not 100% stable and you'll probably get many FCs. What's your baseband say? If it ends in NI2, then you're fine. If it says NE9 or NCG or NHA, then you'll want to flash the NI2 firmware.

Baseband ends in NI2. But, like I said, it's running pretty much flawlessly. Being paranoid of something down the line not working correctly I'm probably just going to fix it later tonight though. Thanks for the quick response! If this is not 100% than I'm going to be extremely happy when I re-do it later and get it working correctly. Cheers.

Yes this is well known by the dev. It's just a small problem from aosp code in the rom.
Here's from the new test build. Not all aosp code in yet but it's not like that in nc4 test build1.

Click to expand...

I thought I would give an update to my post in the main thread asking for some guidance. As I was on NC2 kernel/build# (even though nc4 baseband due to previously trying all of them hoping for better reception and selling on nc4), I decided I didn't need to flash anything prior to flashing Eclipse 2.01-kitkat, and I also decided safestrap 3.72 was fine, mainly because I couldn't find anyone saying which beta of 3.75 was the right one to use, and I knew others had flashed earlier versions of eclipse on 3.72 successfully.
So anyway, I factory reset from SS, flashed eclipse, factory reset again, and everything worked perfectly. Due to holidays I got very little time to mess with it but it never had any crashes with light routine use. Then I got the dark gapps from play store and flashed those. That's when it got buggy. I was flashing on top of "normal" gapps which was probably the problem. But basically none of them worked at all. I restored the normal ones from titanium backup just to limp through the day with a functioning phone but now I want to do it right.
So I've paid for the dark gapps and SE gadgets in the store. I'm ready to start from scratch. Should I flash the dark gapps immediately after flashing the eclipse rom and then get gadgets again? This is still for the latest stable build not the test builds some of you are discussing. My phone status attached
I'll write up a little step by step guide once I get it working because I feel it's the only thing missing... the rom itself is a godsend for delivering us from touch wiz!

As always, happy to provide a logcat if you need one. Thanks.
Anyone else experiencing a heavy battery drain? I had fantastic battery life on 2.01 with the NC2 kernal/radio, but now I am getting a massive drain on 'Cell Standby' and 'Device Idle'. Battery drained 25% in only 2.5 hours, with little to no screen on time.
I'm assuming this is related to the Unity NC4 Radio / NC2 Kernel update I flashed via Odin prior to installing Eclipse 2.1?
Seems like the download link page is down
Everything works perfect except the lollipop email. Everytime I enter my credentials, it force closes and the app no longer opens. Is there a fix or is it something I'm doing wrong???

Second, I have a question. I flashed this on the ATT (N900A) variant, and there has only been one issue. Incoming calls do not show contact names, instead they show the phone number. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks a million.
Edit: Actually it isn't just the dialer/phone app. Other apps are having trouble reaching contact data as well. Hmm.
can't use OTG cable
I'm running Eclipse rom v 2.2 on my SM-N900V, Android 4.4.2, NC2 build.
Whenever I plug in an OTG cable with a flash drive, Eclipse reboots. It's a 32gb flash drive, formatted NTFS, and I'm mounting it with Paragon NTFS and Total Commander. I've tried an exFAT drive and it didn't work either.
It's really frustrating, does anyone have any advice?
Slow Data (for a single app?)
Installed this Rom last night. LOVE IT. It's by far the best I've tried on my phone. I'm having one problem, though. I play a game called "Ingress" (not sure if anyone is familiar with it or not) which uses GPS heavily. This is the one app that is having problems on my phone since I put this ROM on here. The GPS portion seems to work just fine, but it appears that the data connection for this app is EXTREMELY slow. (Even on Wifi, I get the same results.)
I'm getting great latency and speeds over my mobile network, so I know that the phone itself is working properly. But, it seems that the sending and receiving for data within this one app is hampered greatly. I know that there isn't probably much I can do, but I was curious if anyone out there used this same combo of Rom & Ingress and if they had any of the same issues?
Lollipop?
There has been recent talk of Verizon rolling out lollipop for the Note 3 in upcoming weeks/months (it's Verizon, who knows), will you continue work with this ROM on lollipop or is this not going passed 4.4.2?

work with encryption?
do you think it will allow encryption? I haven't had much luck yet with any rom except stock for root, twrc, and then encryption. my work email requires it or I'd skip it entirely...
thx

I haven't tried but it's possible. Not sure why encryption doesn't work on other roms, but the "regular" version of this one is basically stock with root, TWRP, busybox, etc. I've disabled securestorage and added r/w permissions for SD card too, but if that's a problem you can reverse those two changes by following the steps in OP2 in my dev thread. If you test it out please report back and let us know if it worked

resolving LTE display issue
Hi,
I believe I have replaced the Systemui.apk correctly with the correct permissions using Root Explorer but still see the 4G rather than the LTE in the bar.
Any ideas?
Thx.
Nick
ps thanks for the debloated ROM - working great for me with KT Kernel

Check out this post from my other thread in the dev section. I think you'll also need the platform file, not just the Systemui.apk. Let us know if that does the trick.

UPDATE!
v2.1 of the roms are now live! Based on the latest N910W8 BOC4 5.0.1 Lollipop firmware. See OP in the dev thread for updated details, instructions, notes, and download links: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58717681
Still no luck

Thanks - I replaced the platform in permissions/etc/ with the updated one but at reboot still 4G.
Any other thoughts?
Thx.

What version of the rom are you flashing? Debloated v1.1 or 2.1? The files I linked were from the AOA1 base so not clear if they will work on BOC4.
1.1 and A0A1 base files

A01A Base and debloated V1.1.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond - not really a big deal - just more a point of trying to figure it out for myself at this point. I will likely flash to 5.01 debloated now anyway - I have KT kernel running with the 1.1. Does the 5.01 have it's own kernel? (sorry if this is a naive question).
Thanks again.

Happy to help . v2.1 (i.e. Lollipop) has the stock kernel. If you have already updated to BOC4 through Odin at least once before then the kernel will work for you when you flash v2.1. If not, you'll need to flash a compatible custom kernel (e.g. AEL, KT, etc) to avoid boot loops after installing v2.1. See OP in my dev thread for full instructions.
Not sure about the LTE icon. Maybe try copying the CSC folder from another working rom to v1.1 and try flashing that? If you're on kitkat and running xposed there is also a module you can download called LTE Switcher or something like that. I've used it before and it worked for me.

Thanks - I will install a custom kernel post-2.1 flash to get the BOC4 update. Appreciate you taking the time. I'll keep working away at the LTE issue. Let you know if I figure it out.

Yes just confirming that you should be able to get the LTE icon by copying the CSC folder from stock or from the Regular version to your phone (after installing the Debloated version of course).:good:

Debloated 2.2 released!
Notes:
Used a new debloat process and also fixed FC when using the front-facing camera.
If you get any FCs after initial setup (such as Google Maps or Samsung Link Platform), just make sure to update the problematic app from the Play Store or Samsung's Galaxy Apps store and then you should be good to go!

Samsung Provider Codes not working
Hi there, Great Rom!
One thing that isn't working is the service provider code of *#2263# isn't working (MMI error).
Thanks again!

I've tried both versions and neither version can access the RF Band Selector menu. It comes up with a MMI error. I've gone through and tried manually selecting a provider and that didn't work neither. IMEI is intact, and no issues with making receiving calls or texts. Flashed back to stock via Odin and no issues with getting to that menu.

Hmm that's strange...I could understand an issue with the Debloated version since things were removed, but the Regular version is basically just a rooted and deodexed version of stock. You have a N910W8, and not using any other mods or kernels, correct? Not sure why it would work on stock BOC4 but not the Regular Rom since they are essentially the same...

Yes I had the same thought, so I went from the debloat to the regular. I also ensured that I wiped 3x in TWRP in all required sections (all except internal storage and SD Card), before doing the flash to debloat or regular. Also made sure I waited 5 minutes post boot and then reboot before going through the setup wizard.
In any case, not a deal breaker for some, but may be fore those that are looking to enable LTE on N910W8 (Wind purchased phones).
I am running a N910W8, with no other mods or kernels. I was running straight stock w/root, before flashing the ROM's. Ensured that I was running BOC4 before flash. Not sure why, unless the base ROM you're using in the Deodex and Debloat doesn't have that menu's within it's native firmware, but I was under the impression that the firmware for canadian models were all identical with their own carrier codes attached to the firmware. (CSC Code chage *#272*IMEI#).

Thanks for the info. Strange indeed! Yes the Canadian roms should all basically be the same as you mentioned. This one is based directly off the stock Bell BOC4 firmware from sammobile so not clear why it would on stock but not this version. I've read something about Wind phones being a little different from the other Canadian variants in some way (I forget the specifics now), but that was a while back and I'm not sure if it's actually true or even related to this lol. Either way I will take a look over the weekend and post if I find anything of interest.
Regular/Debloated 2.3 released!
