Hi, Iv been having trouble installing the Hyperdrive ROM with safestrap. I installed HP 14 with SS 3.71 with the modules for my divice (MK2). It says it installed successfully but it just stays at the boot screen. Any ideads? My stock ROM is deleted..
Thanks!

Hey again! So this is a new scenario now from last time or same issue? If you made a backup of your stock before you flashed to it, maybe you can restore but not a gaurentee.
You never were able to get Odin to see your phone?

No. Same issue. I just never got a fix. Odin finally saw it and i tried to flash the "No-wipe" one like you (I think) said to use, but it said failed. I probably used the wrong option, im not familiar with odin or how to use it.

Put phone into download mode.
Put the unzipped file into PDA or AP depending on Odin version.
Make sure only Auto Reboot and F Reset Time are checked.
Onces that's all set and Odin shows your phone connected. Hit start.

No you can go back and forth between mk2 and mj7 those are the only two. You cannot go down past mj7.
I bet if you did this you'd be good. There's a possibility you may need the Pit file but I think this file alone should get you back to normal. You really have nothing to lose at this point.

Make sure you unzip that Odin file and put the .TAR file into the PDA slot. Not the whole zip you initially download.

Well I don't think anything is going to install or restore correctly for you since your stock slot is screwed up.
You can Odin the mj7.
Then re root
Install SafeStrap again
Reflash Hyperdrive but this time you want the mj7 modules since that is what your stock is going to be. Do you follow me?
Basically you just want to bring your phone back to life first. Before you worry about anything else.
Getting mj7 modules is very easy.
And I'd suggest next time to just install hyperdrive on a ROM slot not your stock slot. If at that point you need help the folks in the SafeStrap thread would definitely help you

Alright, I Flashed my MK2 thing in odin and the phone is running and rooted. now should I install safestrap, create a second rom slot, then install JUST hyperdrive rsl14 and notthing else? or do i need to install "Modules"??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630040
That thread has SafeStrap Roms for you.
First backup your stock slot
Then create a ROM slot and then activate it.
Then flash whatever ROM you want on that slot.. and flash modules after the ROM flashes .
Always flash modules.

Well I know it's not this hard lol don't take that the wrong way, probably something your doing. I'd say try another ROM. Unfortunately your not going to get away from tw since your on SafeStrap. If you are trying all this on a ROM slot just try a different one.
Could be any number of things going on here.
Bad download
Not a SS version ROM
Choosing Custom Kernel in Aroma
Plus a couple other things I could be missing since its late lol
Just a reminder :
You can only flash
Touchwiz 4.3 SafeStrap Roms
+ you can only have the stock kernel , no matter if it's an option in a ROM Aroma Setup. Sometimes those Aromas are also made for people like me with MDK S4 with custom recovery.
If you truly want this eclipse ROM you're going to have to find that thread somewhere or on Nitro's site and tell them exactly what steps you took to get you here with as much detail as possible.

And your doing all this on a ROM slot. .... not the stock slot???
Once you create a ROM slot you must activate it... Not just go back and start wiping and installing..
If you truly have your stock slot intact and all this is on a ROM slot then you shouldn't have any problems but my guess is maybe that's what happening.. Forgetting to actually activate the slot.

OK
That's good news then.
Are you downloading these files right to your phone or a computer then transferring to you phone?
I'd always download using the PC.. check the md5 of the download.
Transfer to SD card then check md5 once more to make sure your good.
Then hop in SafeStrap Recovery
- wipe data/factory reset
-wipe vache /Dalvic
* do that a couple times
-flash ROM zip
- don't leave SafeStrap yet
- flash modules
-clear cache/Dalvic once more
I've never had a problem doing it this way and I used to run hyperdrive.

Sorry guys. Im on build mj7 on verizon. The stock slot works perfectly with data. Ive tried several tw roms and even flashed them in the stock slot and I get no mobile data. Ive tried stock kernel, kt kernel, flashing the mj7 modules, and reflashing the modem. I can only get mobile data with the factory flashed odin rom.
I did a twrp restore of m1a3 rom into slot 1 and did get mobile data. Im obviously missing some kind of file. I just dont know what it is. Here is the link of the ss restored rom that worked.

Just a side note since your using safestrap unless I've missed something new in the past week.. You can only run the stock kernel. And since your on mj7 you'd only be able to flash TW ROMs based off of mj7 or mk2 using your mj7 modules. I'm not 100% right now where you're problem lies.
Flashing to the stock slot is risky and unfortunately sometimes the only remedy is to Odin back to stock and start again making sure you're using the correct ROM , modules.

I figured. Seems like you have a handle on all that. You said earlier you were trying different kernels... Last I know trying to flash a different kernel wouldn't even do much because of the security on that phone... And I wouldn't think that'd mess you're data up but you never know. The data should work right out the box for you on hyperdrive.

I'm still at a loss. Can someone tell me what files are needed to provide mobile data access?
@maniac2k
I don't know.. Maybe look into the settings you get into from the dialer to check and see if anything in there is disabled as far as data/3g/4g ? Obviously you've checked your APN settings as well? If your stock didn't get data either I'd say your sim card is acting up. I know there's a thread on here for the dialer settings I've done it before myself just forget what they are. Until someone else has an idea might be worth a try

whatever build base you are, MJ7....you flash the MJ7 kernel module patch. If you Mk2 buildbase, you flash the Mk2 kernel patch..... Be sure the kernel patch is a valid download, You do this after installing rom and before first boot.

Backstory:
So last night my phone turned off by itself and wouldn't turn back on. My first thought it something with the ROM. So I boot to recovery and start a backup before I try to wipe/format etc. Long story short, it ended up being the battery just ate sh*t. So I got a new battery from Verizon, after I tried to ODIN back to stock though...
Problem:
I was on Hyperdrive RLS15, and I tried to Odin open1your1eyes MDK NoWipe. But my phone is just hanging on the Verizon screen. (it has been over half hr) My phone is MDK base (no safestrap), is that the right thing to flash? Is there anything else I have to do?
Thanks in advance, and forgive my naiveness. :silly:

You're going to want to keep your bootloader MDK. With MDK you an flash any ROM you want, AOSP , AOKP , CM , TW..... 4.3...4.4 you name it.
If you updated to MK2 base you'd take away your options. You'd only be able to flash TW ROMs that are based on whatever build your phone is ...MK2 is 4.3 . And your only recovery would be SafeStrap. Not TWRP or CWM
How did end up with HD15 ? Flashed in recovery right? You can find any number of ROMs on these forums that are based off of MK2 or MJ7 and just flash them in recovery.

Gotcha. Yes recovery. HD says it's MK2 based, but my phone build still says MDK in the About screen. That's why I was wondering. Come to think of it though, doesn't that just display the Modem version (which is recovery flashable), correct?

Yes. MDK is your bootloader/Build and MK2 would be your baseband/modem.
Grab this app and it will show you everything https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo
And Surge has a thread on here of all our modems which are flashable through recovery although your probably good to stick with MK2 for now.

So I flashed the FoxHound ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596654) found there today on my SCH-i545 Verizon Galaxy S4. I flashed it with SafeStrap, and everything works beautifully except for my WI-fi. It absolutely won't turn on no matter what I do. I heard something about a wpa config file, I tried renaming it and rebooting so a new one gets made. There's a Wi-Fi fixing option in the FoxHound settings, but all it does it download files that I have no clue what to do with. I'm very new to this stuff. How do I fix it?
You have to flash the safestrap modules that match your boot loader after you flash the ROM and before you boot. Wi-Fi won't work without them.
If you don't understand go back to the safestrap thread and read the entire OP.

Recoveries can check the md5's of whatever files your flashing. It's just a way to see if the file is still in tact and what it's supposed to be... If your on SafeStrap I think there's an option in there to turn off md5 verification under advanced maybe. I check md5's prior to flashing either on my PC or an app on the phone. I don't bother while in recovery. That's just me though

If you odin using the full wipe or no-wipe NC5 tars your will be back to complete stock. You could then downgrade, root and install safestrap, then if you wanted to you could upgrade to 4.4.2 with root and install custom roms.

Hmmm well if you look at a flashable kernal, it makes cahnges to /system/lib/modules/
Since this is under system you SHOULD be able to reflash surges NC5 rooted rom.
I answered this in the other thread where this was asked. (Which has a zip with the NC5 kernel modules.)
OP, there is no reason to post multiple threads about a question.

Yeah I just looked under modules and I took a few screen shots of the hotspot turning on then immediately turning off before I flashed the KERNAL it came on like a charm just like surge said it would. I just don't want too have to do a full wipe

Well since the kernal is under /system and when you install a rom it usually formats system then installs everything. Those bad kernal files would get replaced after re-flashing without losing data.

Just rooted my wife's of1 and looking for a basic ROM to install so I can have the WiFi tether available.
Its been a while since I've been on here and not fimiliar with what to use and what not.
My phone has safestrap and 4.4 still.
From what I've read safestrap can't be used on of1....
Thanks

You need to install flashfire cant find with aptoide, then download the stanglitre rom for non mdk and use the instructions for flashed with flasfire, is the only rom i find for this firmware.

Stang5litre is a great ROM, as said by jesuskaoz. It is a debloated stock with better performance and battery life. I didn't check the wifi tether though.
If you want to have some more fun, Albe95's S6 port is pretty good, it's what I'm running now. It's performance is great, and its cool to have all of the S6 features, but battery life isn't as good as stang5litre. It has working wifi tether. But be careful when you install it; I had two bootloops trying to. To install it you must flash OC1 kernel and follow the OF1 Bootloader instructions. Hope I helped and have fun with a new ROM!
incorrect

Well I went with the stock rooted ROM and flashed it per instructions while I was on of1 and I am soft bricked. It just sits at the s4 screen then after a few mins it reboots and does the same thing. Not sure what I did wrong but I'm trying to find a stable net connection to download the tar which is 2.4 gb

Same thing happened to me trying to flash stock rooted too... Had to flash stock OF1 firmware again via odin and root again... Not a big deal but lost all data on phone and it takes a while to do.

No... As long as he's on stock ROM you can flash OC1 kernel no problem. That's how OF1 people obtain root in the first place.

Well I flashed again and got a system not responding error and all I could do is pull down the notification bar. So I'm guessing that flashfire is the issue or I got a bad download of the ROM.
Downloading from a different mirror now and flashing tar again....

Are you using FlashFire v.24? That's what I used to flash the Odex and DeOdexed rom's by muniz_ri and they worked fine

I literally had the same problem as you. Tried to flash of1 rooted and got boot loop.
If you have some time, the easiest solution to your problem is to flash stock, re root, and start all over again. Like I said, it takes some time, but it's an easy process.

I feel you!
This is what worked for me:
-Root
-STAY on OC1 kernel
-Flash Albe's s6 port
Should boot in 10-15 minutes
I don't remember what kernel I was on when I flashed stang's ROM
Good luck I'll check in again tomorrow.

I don't believe they have a website. I would go to the Flashfire thread, join the beta group, download the app Direct from the play store.
When I flashed muniz_ri's rooted OF1 DeOdexed rom, I was on OF1 with OF1 kernel, though I believe it flashes modem, non-hlos, and kernel anyways

Yea I'm on the latest v.24 beta.
I'm going to mess with it again tonight and see what I get and will report back.
Thanks for the help
So I just tried it again and as soon as I hit the bolt to start the screen goes all black and hasn't turned back on. Is it flashing? Do I leave it like that?
I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong.
So I walked away from it and came back and it's on. How do I know if it flashed? All apps are still there and nothing has changed.
Edit...
I flashed the tether hack and it did the same thing rebooted and still no tether. So nothing is being flashed.
Edit again...
Forgot to install SuperSU so it actually flashed the ROM but wouldn't load. Got stuck on a black screen for about 10mins. Back to sq 1 again
Finally got the damn thing on her phone. I was flashing the wrong kernal after rooting. Left the oc1 kernal on the phone then flashed and it went through fine.
Thanks for all the help.
