I'm hoping to get some noob love.... I'm going crazy here.... I flashed paranoid on 10/4 and loved it! I decided to flash a 747-s kernel last night because i read that it woul help battery life, when I went to reboot it keeps coming up with the error phone has stopped... and it won't let me do anything. I've wiped everything and tried re-flashing the ROM, still getting the error. Had to reflash Blazer... works perfectly. Can someone please help? Thank you!
Is it android.Phone error? I fixed mine by turning mobile data on then off. I don't know if it'll work for you tho

in the op he posted because of the stuff hes working on with the rom other kernels will not work yet...
tldr wait for update it will get fixed
Its really weird.. I've tried flashing a few different ROMs since and I'm still getting "unfortunately, phone has stopped" as soon as I click OK it pops back up right away. Seems to do this for every CM based ROM. Know how to get rid of that kernel?

I thought kernels change with each flash? Im not sure tho.. But if it does that again try turning mobile data on then off. Your problem sounded like mine. So just try that and let me know if that works for you

It won't let me do anything on the phone because that error window literally pops up as soon as its closed. Any other suggestions? I appreciate the help!

Try airplane mode to. That seems to stop it. Then turn mobile data on then off. Then keep trying it

Either you're screwing with me cause I'm new or you are not understanding the problem.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Nope. I had the same issue as you. I was getting the same error. Even with the message popping back up back to back. I still got to airplane mode. But I would never **** with someone just because your new. Just trying to help. Thats all.
So given that it keeps happening go back to a touchwiz rom. But I heard flashing from cm to tw is dangerous. So I would use odin.
Have a nice day.
haha hes forreal. might take some quick finger work but airplane mode will stop it so you can toggle data.

WOW! Clearly I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM! haha, thanks guys, I feel like a d now, I appreciate you not snapping and still being helpful. I'll give 'er a go! Thanks again!
No dice... doesn't work. Even tried formatting my SD and unrooting/rerooting the phone. Very frustrating, I don't know what else to do.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Well. Last option. Unroot it. And clear your bootloader counter and go to stock.. If you have the insurance.. Very sorry man. Unless someone could help you. Maybe post some logcats. But I doubt thats even possible... Very sorry.

Hey guys, need a little help. I've been suffering from bad battery life. I've used Greenify to hibernate some apps but it doesn't seem to help anything. I have Better Battery stats installed but don't know how to read it to see what is using most of my battery. I'm on wicked... Don't know if that helps.
I'm coming to the community for help, if anyone has any suggestions or how to read the better battery stats app... Just let me know

There's nothing u can do but wait until the phone becomes familiar with the battery, mine as well died within 5 hours or less I hated it but then I just ignored it nd let it be and we'll I've had this phone for about two weeks nd my average battery life is a day and 2 hours and I'm using wicked as well so just let it settle down plus if you restored apps from the stock rom then u probably want to do a full wipe and start all over again without restoring any apps because the back up u have has the bloat from the stock rom so it eats your battery pretty fast that's wt I did and it fixed it by Givin me two extra hours and also download gsam battery monitor and checks was using a lot of battery...

Then that must be the problem.. Like I said on the previous post, restoring apps from a stock rom could also bring lots of bloat and will eat up your battery so just do a full wipe and there's an update for wicked now so either ways u still have to do a full wipe and don't restore your apps or anything and the rom will be ready to go as well as your battery, I'm sorry but there's no other way specially when you have all Ur apps to your own liking but you have to start clean on it...
And once you have everything the way you want it again delete your titanium back up folder and reboot and then back them up again so once you do another update with wicked it will act properly

what about the user apps we backed up from a custom rom?
I'm off the stock since I laid my hands on my phone so I'm pretty sure the backups (TB) I've made was from a custom ROM, does it brings bloats too?
1 more thing, if you still recommend a clean start, is it ok if I keep the TB backup folder to restore the apps using "restore apps only"?
thanks before, your help is greatly appreciated
Hey folks. I've mostly been a lurker around here for a number of years and never posted but I've recently encountered a problem I can't seem to fix on my own. Here's some basic info.
Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919)
Stock ROM (rooted)
Android 4.2.2
BB Version M919UVUAMDL
Kernel Version 3.4.0_562219
Recovery Clockwork Mod Touch
The problem I'm having is that I have to leave my phone with auto rotation off. If I turn it on, landscape and portrait rotations are 180 degrees off, flipped, upside down, etc etc. I've been searching high and low for some way to fix this and no dice! Please let me know what I can do. I have tried accelerometer recalibration and a few apps but I just can't get it to work right.I would like to avoid a re-wipe. I finally have everything just right. Wipes irritate the heck out of me because I guess Clockwork Recovery can't access backups on the external SD card? Ugh.
Problem: flipped screen, camera up side down, camera flipped, screen 180, screen upside down. Reverse portrait, reverse landscape.
Fix: Had bad kernel. Flashed to a newer ktoonz kernel and it fixed the problem.
BTW: I just realized that my camera is also in fact flipped 180. Sheesh. This is a royal pain.

Are you perhaps using a kernel not meant for tmobile? I ported roms for the galaxy s 3 and they always did that unless you used a kernel meant for your devicce.

Im not sure what lernel that is im sorry.just got my s4. But anyhow is it a custom kernel that you flashed? If so make sure you got it from a tmobile thread. Or if you would rather it maybe easier to flash a tmobile kernel such as ktoonz and see if that fixes the issue.

Just figured out its a custom ktoonz kernel. Replaced it with old stock kernel with suid removed and problem seems fixed by my sd card went south when I did. Cant mount it. Copying files off it now.

I am seeing the reversed auto rotation on my wife's GS4(SPH-L720) and it is stock unrooted. She has made no changes to anything! Camera and menu's are upside down. Web pages are upside down. She needs to keep auto-rotation off, just to use it! Others online with the same problem have been doing factory resets with no luck. One person did 3 or 4 factory resets and still has the same problem. My rooted GS4 is ok (so far) but hers (not rooted) is driving her nuts. She will never root hers (and would be angry with me if she knew mine was rooted). Any help at all would be appreciated.

If it is stock and unroofed the only explanation would be hardware IMO..... There isn't another explanation especially if a factory reset doesn't help it.

Yes, it will remove root and unlock. But it'll fail depending on the mods you've done to it.
To reroot/unlock, do the same as zvb

I'll remove xposed then.
I try using freegee to unlock but it said my version was too new and i needed a special code. After i got it , it said something about storing download mode somewhere in my phone.
Next i tried using the teeny bins , it unlocked but it wouldn't let my phone boot after i would install a rom?

Not quite sure I understand what you did.
I think you need to do a factory reset. But you might lose your SD.

Sounds like a bad flash / corrupted system. I am inclined to agree that you need to do a factory reset first, however you will more then likely lose your SD contents. A very good rule of thumb is to remember if you are flashing a ROM based from stock and you are one / stock it's self, you should be good. Same works for CM based ROM's going from one to another tends to do pretty well, it's the crossing of the guards so to speak that tends to cause issues.
Personally if I could get in my phone I would back up everything and flash stock rom > factory reset > root/unlock > wipe everything in recovery except internal (SD) and then flash ROM/Gapps.
GL!
So I failed to update , now it can't update it says im lastest version but im still in ZVB?

Just flash a factory ZVB image (unmodified other than root & unlocked) through recovery. Follow the steps in the linked post below to update to ZVC (works with TWRP recovery) without too much hassle (uses Rootkeeper & Freegee). No computer needed and -worked great! Took under 10 mins during work break!, No loss of apps / data / sdcard.

Not much new. Here's a post about the update. Your root, and Freegee and the teeny bins all work.
ZVC bin added. Please thank tommyjoesanders here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2437284
My upload was bad, so I won't have another one til tomorrow.
Changes found so far:
Roaming popup still keeps showing up after being checked
less than 10 character texts work now
Avoid poor wifi connections is still messed up.
tommyjoesanders - They sure did fix auto brightness sensors, wifi and signal locks on better and they updated most the pre installed apps from google.
The modem/radio seems to be the same. But tommyjoe says they made improvements in other ways.

Just a quick follow up (after updating and going back to root/unlock). The biggest change I've noticed with the update is the radio performance. They've definitely improved in that area. I especially notice this when indoors at work where I RARELY (as in almost never) got a 4G connection. Now I get a solid 3 bars indoors. Same with at home where my connection period was spotty (apparently my house sits in a gray zone). Which is why I always just used WiFi at home. But just to check, disabled WiFi and now I get a steady 3G connection (I never ever got a 4G connection at home so I wasn't expecting to now).

Try Jedi Mind Trick, I'm using it right now and it's great. I'm using it with the Tiberius kernel (I don't think I spelled it right lol), but you HAVE to let the rom settle in for at least 10 mins, otherwise it'll just start giving problems such as random reboots, force closes, battery life issues, etc. It's based on Touchwiz 4.1.2 so you won't have any camera issues.
to the rescue
