All i wanted was an AOSP rom and I have that now. Due to the locked bootloaders, this is in all likelihood my last Samsung phone ever. I realize we are a small population of their customer base and thats fine, i will just spend my money elsewhere. I dont want your sh**ty Touchwiz on my phone...

Oh. Hmm. Now i will have to defer to someone else more knowledgeable. I was always under the impression you couldnt. Besides, iirc, the regular S4 bootloader is unlocked so you have a TON of more options vs the S4 active users

ohhh...now that i don't know. I generally just stick to the threads that pertain to my phone. Have you tried looking in the NOTE 3 threads?

I just got the GPE 4.4.3 rom working that Xanthos58 was talking about. My only issue now is getting flashing the 4.4.4 update fails every time. I can write up and explanation of what I did after lunch if you would like.

was able to get this installed but couldnt figure out a way to get wifi working which is pretty essential for most of the apps I run while at home. Mainly Netlfix. LOVE AOSP based roms but not having wifi work or a fix for wifi makes this rom practically unusable for me. Hope someone has a...

lvillepunk85, did you have to worry about a specific base? I currently have one that's not listed in the install instructions

That easy? May have to try this tonight You installed the rom to your stock slot correct using safe strap right? Did you have to worry about a specific base module to install? My base ends in NC9 , and I can't find anything about that to help me flash the rom you posted I'm having the...

which set of instructions did you follow?

Damn, thanks dude My only "issue" is that I was trying to free up some internal memory. Freezing apps doesnt get rid of them right? It just suspends them from showing up in your app tray correct? ---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ---------- Why not...

I actually saw something that suggested it was related to the removal of the Samsung hub app. I could probably do a reflash but I'm Judy now getting all my settings finalized. Idk man

Dude, you are a life saver! I was able to put it on my phone with absolutely no problems. Long press to kill is back! You wouldn't by chance happen to know how to fix the screen rotation problem would you?

Imo, its still very much subjective. As much as I've frequented here throughout the years,I would probably still be considered a noob. With that being said, here are my thoughts Initially I was regretting the update. My battery life being terrible was my biggest gripe. I decided to root it only...

So I finally rooted the phone and I'm happy to report the battery life is much much better. Back to getting 15+hrs on a single charge

WOW....THANKS SO MUCH. I followed everything step by step and it worked like a charm!!

Lol Wasn't expecting to read that but something gotta shake. Hopefully I can do it tonight

Thanks for the insight peter. I'm going to give it a full week to see if battery performance levels off. Btw, which root method did you use? I gotta get this bloatware off ASAP, buy I haven't figured out which method was the easiest

ok, thought i was the only one who was experiencing this. I was getting 15hrs at least on a single charge running 4.2. I'm getting right at 11-12 now. But it seems like when it drains, it depletes. And that's with moderate use. With 4.2, i was able to stream movies, listen to music, talk and...

can i assume that the new Hyperdrive update isnt compatible with this version of safestrap?

RE: Hyperdrive rom has anyone done group messages and when you reply, you get it twice? This only seems to happen when i respond to a group text. I thought it may have something to do with the fact that I had a "me" contact in my phone and it was interferring with my google account but i...

Forgot to comment, but this worked for me. Thanks a lot!

ok. Thanks Devo7v. Will try that and report my findings

this post reminded me that I have flashed they Hyperdrive rom with the latest master patch and the ATT compatibility patch and I cant get my wifi to work. I've tried flashing it in a different order and I'm still having issues with it. Couple of things: 1) Does the new master patch cancel...

Devo7v thanks

my understanding was that the camera patch was included in the master patch file. If that isn't the case, then my apologies I just googled "kit kat camera" and found it. If you still need a link, I could post it. I see another member has linked to two places here on this site, but i didnt have...

Graviton Rom First off, I just want to say thanks to all the hardwork that has made flashing a different rom on the Active possible. I was saddened to learn AFTER I bought the phone shortly after its release that the bootloaders wouldn't have the ability to be unlocked and would make flashing...

I saw there was a mod for the regular S4 that would allow you to disable the screen from waking when you receive a text, but is there anyway you can do this for the Active? I even tried that mod for the regular S4 and it didnt seem to work for the Active. I mean, if AT&T insists on not letting...

Hey guys. Didnt see this case posted. If by chance i've overlooked it then my apologies, but i've been looking for the silicone version of this case but so far, no dice (had an original gameboy). But i've found the hard plastic version. this is for the S4 Active...

ok, just so that im not totally confused here. I can stop the phone from waking when a new text arrives by doing what's quoted?

bump also, before i post my next question, is this also considered the general discussion thread for this phone?

Where is this option? I have been looking all over for it and have yet to find it using the navigation you posted in your message. I do not see this option. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

S4 Active please

Been having a problem with the phone resetting itself. At first i thought it was b/c i put a custom wallpaper on the lockscreen. It was restarting maybe every 5 mintues. I changed it back to the default wallpaper and while it has improved, it still has been resetting/rebooting, but not at an...

ok...just d/l it...will report impressions after some testing...

i should've been more clear, but i keep getting a notification to update the rom. I assumed it was different from the initial one i installed a few days ago.

so there is no official changelog? Did i overlook it?

this also worked for me...THANKS!

First off...GREAT looking rom... as other users have reported, I am alos having trouble restoring apps with TiBu. I've done all of the suggestions you've posted to no avail.

thanks for everyone's help

both...i guess... like how would i go about creating the wallpaper? Photoshop? or is it as simple as just obtaining it from the person who created it? I think the setup would involve UCCW or the other app that escapes my brain right now. Would i be correct? Thanks for the response

hey guys...need some help/guidance on how to go about creating some of the screens posted on mycolorscrreen.. http://mycolorscreen.com/2012/04/13/another-day-in-the-office/ the one to the link isnt quite the one i was looking for but for some reason i cant find it, but i would like to make...

Ok...had a bit of a rough launch trying to get it to install, but finally got it... So far, no major issues or anything that hasnt been covered already with a fixable workaround...thanks for this preview build!!

i have fallen in love with nemus launcher...it has everything i need/want in a launcher (which isnt much...lol) but i thought 360 Launcher was perfect but it was missing scrollable widgets...with Nemus i get my scrollable widgets and i can resize my folders on my screens if I want to..

Let me say, I freaggin LOVE this launcher...this has been my launcher for a while now. Probably the main thing that keeps this launcher on my phone is the ability to move apps around that are stored in the folders. Most of the other launchers I have tried do not give you this ability. For...

$17 bucks??? i'll pass...they should've done some sort of half off promo or something to get the word out...but just from the comments (not only here but other places on the webz), it aint worth it

I checked out the Kite UI youtube vid and fell in love with it...that is until I saw the ROU Launcher video... CANT WAIT!!! ---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ---------- I'll try to do it as soon as I can. I am about to leave for the day and might...

I think it should be noted that some of these are no longer being supported by their developers and have been pulled off of the marketplace. I was still able to find the apk's for them, but a couple of them appeared to still have serious bug issues. I started from the bottom of the list and...

I did a thread search but did not see a resolution to my question. Has the contact picture issue been addressed? I saw some people saying they use the direct link to fb profile, but i dont use fb at all. Can anyone tell me what the dimensions are for the contact picture? Whenever my wife...

Just wanted to drop in and say that I just flashed this rom and it is very nice. I was going to post some comments/suggestions, then I read the past few pages. I just want to say keep on fighting. Family comes first. Roms can wait

ok noob alert...the OP mentioned he was disappointed when he saw the dell streak had 1.6 and was lame...what is 1.6? the version of the OS? edit: nvm...found out it is the OS

yes i do btw...however, i did not see any instructions referring to that method...it is almost midnight where i am, and it is possible i may have over looked it. I will try again in the morning once i've gotten some shut eye tried that too, but to no avail
