I WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPORTING THIS THREAD WITH MY OWN PERSONALLY FOUND INFORMATION. THOUGH IF ANYONE PRESENTS ME WITH NEW ROMS AND PROOF THEY WORK AND LEGIT, ILL GLADLY ADD THEM TO THIS THREAD. JUST MESSAGE OR TAG ME.

THIS THREAD IS DEDICATED TO ROM'S THAT WORK WITH SAFESTRAP ON VERIZON ME7.

COULD THESE ROM's WORK FOR YOU NON VERIZON FOLKS OUT THERE? I DON'T KNOW... I'M ONLY TESTING WITH A VERIZON S4 SO FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK

For Us On Me7 We Can Only Use Roms using the Me7 Kernel

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. DOWMLOAD ROM OF YOUR CHOICE (STILL THINK IT HAS TO BE Me7 BASED)
2. FLASH ROM (DO NOT REBOOT YET, YOU MUST DO STEP 3 FIRST BEFORE REBOOT)
3. FLASH HASCODES FIX OVER TOP OF ROM ------> http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=507
4. REBOOT&PROFIT!!!!

***NOTE THESE ARE ROMS I HAVE PERSONALLY "TESTED", IF YOU FIND A ROM THAT DOES OR DOESN'T WORK SUBMIT A LINK TO THAT ROM IN YOUR POST AND ILL TEST IT AND THEN ILL ADD IT THIS LIST***
TESTED = It Booted, GPS, WIFI and DATA WORK. I Tried a NAVIGATION APP TO CONFIRM GPS LOCK. I CONNECTED TO MY HOME WIFI NETWORK AND USED WHATEVER STOCK BROWSER CAME WITH THAT ROM TO CONNECT TO A WEBSITE and I DID THE SAME OVER CARRIER NETWORK (DATA). I MADE ONE PHONE CALL

ROMS THAT WORK!!!! (IF YOU LIKE ANY OF THESE ROMS DON'T FORGET TO DONATE TO THE ROM CREATORS AND SHOW YOUR APPRECIATION FOR THEIR HARD WORK. MOST OF THE OPs HAVE DONATE LINKS)

Wish the ROM's with a stock kernel were a bit smaller, it's a pain in the ass to download a 1GB file to flash, my other devices were usually only like 165MB!!!

Little premature dont you think. Its not even released yet.

ha, yeah, I'm at work and can't use the computer to send it to the phone. I'm just too excited about the whole thing so I'm downloading GPE on the phone, i'm on a 8GB shared plan with 3 others that use on average about .07GB each per month, so I"m good

just takes a while

Ya you can test rom flashes. No stable release tho. Regardless its awesome to see the progress this has gone through. I was lucky enough to get an mdk version and not take update, once its on the play store im going to buy it to support his work. Go hash.

I hate to ask but can you test out this rom http://www.elementalxdesigns.com/ec...S4-TW-Edition-ME7-Progress-build-01-(8-15-13).

Nitro has some pretty good stuff and I really would not know where to start if something went wrong.

Thanks

Just give it a while pretty much if it doesn't boot you battery pull and go back into recovery by pressing the menu button on the recovery splash screen.

Im coming from several years on a Motorola so I know SS pretty well, but this odin stuff is new to me. Plus Im coming from the razr maxx where a battery pull was never an option.
Thanks

That seems to be a common thing with the roms being flashed. Oh well at least the biggest hurdle has been broken. Up to the devs now to work their magic.

anthony92170 · Sep 18, 2013 at 10:25 AM

You need to flash this its called me7 modules wifi should work fron the man himself. Put in op if you want. http://db.tt/b53s2Hyz

Do I Flash this in SS after you install the rom?
Thanks

yes, after you flash ROM to to selected Rom slot, then select the kernel patch zip and flash that after ROM is installed.

I flashed the elclipse rom with no issue and did the kernel patch right after but I can't verify wifi as I am work. My wifi analyzer program sees our WAPs so thats a good thing.

I also did the GPE Rom and kernel patch and wifi does work. My only hiccup was I lost of radio/mobile data on the stock rom as well as GPE rom and took me a bit to see the network selection was not on CDMA/LTE/EVDO. Once I selected that, everything worked

Just waiting on the weekend and SD-compatible rom slots before doing any development, here's what I've tested so far.

Note: All roms installed first, then ME7 modules applied. If configurable, all options sent to minimal/stock settings.

Currently tested roms:

GPE 6.0
Hyperdrive (Latest, works with certain options only/not heavily tested)
Jellybeans Build 6 (Didn't Work for me)
Bone Stock (Didn't Work for me)
AOSP Source Built (Didn't Work for me)
CyanogenMod Nightly (Didn't Work for me)

Issues with GPE:

Cell radio loses data after a period of time (cause unknown)
Advanced battery stats crashes (cause unknown)
