So I've tried installing Hyperdrive multiple times on my S4 and I'm having issues. I bought the S4 used stock on the MK2 version. I rooted MK2 and then followed surges directions to upgrade to NC5 and retain my root. I currently am rooted running stock NC5 with Safestrap 3.72, and every time that I've created a ROM slot and attempted to install hyperdrive onto the phone, the aroma installer works great, I make sure that the ROM slot is active, and then I reboot. It boots up into the stock rom every time and the rom acts all glitchy and lags horribly. Also, if I plug a USB cable into the phone from the computer at that point, the phone just boot loops. I have followed the directions specifically for installing Hyperdrive to the letter multiple times, with no success. I end up going through surge's directions again to get to stock NC5 and then start all over again. Anyone have any clues what I'm doing wrong?

You can't create Rom slots with 3.72. Can ONLY flash to the stock slot.

you need to research info more....

clearly stated tht 3.72 safestrap does not support rom slots or installs to rom slots. This safestrap was released for att versions and has some limitations running on verizon phones

So then I need to uninstall SafeStrap 3.72 and reinstall 3.71 correct? I was thinking that was the problem, but the Hyperdrive thread is a long thread and I didn't read it all.

Assuming you already have root, the only way is to the stock slot of Safestrap 3.72.

I am rooted and am currently running safestrap 3.72. I'll give it a shot. I was under the impression that you never install anything other than stock in the stock slot, but I'm new to safestrap. This all makes me miss my GS4..

Thanks for all the help.

Also, just to be clear, I'll need to install hyperdrive and the nc5 module correct?

Correct. You should also flash Superuser. Some have reported losing root after flashing.

RLS 16.1 CWM Mod

Hi All, I am trying to upgrade from Hyperdrive RLS 9 to 16.1 on my S4. I am on MDK and using CWM as my recovery. I can see the RLS 16.1 ZIP file in my file manager and I can see it through CWM when I am running normally. The ZIP is loaded on the SD card on the phone.

The issue is when I boot into recovery and go into the clockwork folder to find the ZIP it doesn't show up. Not sure why CWM isn't seeing the ZIP files.

Any thoughts? Thanks

    No. 3.71 isn't compatible with 4.4. You have to use 3.72 for KitKat Roms.
