Neat. Privacy Guard was added to the newest official nightly

Since Google released the kernel source will we get an RC build soon?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CamperKiller:
Maybe... just hope it actually works. Release Candidates are usually shaky still. :thumbup:

Also because it doesn't require a billion helpful posts before you can ask why your phone isn't working. Talented developers WANT feedback.

;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
I saw yesterday our mantainer commenting on a google+ post that a commit for the IR blaster is in place... So we should get that feature anytime soon... :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mtlman702:
Was able to get the new boot animation, sunbeam live wallpaper and photosphere camera from Google edition all working on latest nightly (6/27). You can find the boot animation and live wallpaper all over the place but I used this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2341037 for the camera as it contains all the lib files as well. I just pushed all the lib files and the core one manually to their respective locations and set permissions then installed gallery apk like a normal app and it updated the current camera to the new one with photosphere. Everything works nicely.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] chiensibut:
does stock google camera s4 on cm nightly yet, because the old cm camera is horrible and lagging imo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Abolfazl:
I think you are missing a verb. But if you're asking if the newly leaked stock camera works on the S4.. then yes, it does. Just remove/rename /system/app/Gallery2.apk and install the new camera apk like you normally would.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] smashcz:
picasa pics not syncing in gallery ?

and reboot into recovery?

any way to do it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atoy74:
Fyi, be careful on the 6/28 nightly. Something seems to be wrong with how the phone interacts with the radio. It connects briefly then no bars. Tried a fresh install with the same results.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAnarchist1:
Atoy: I am not quite finding this particular issue per-say, at least in the severity that you are finding, but I am finding other instabilities, and general lag. I rolled back to 6/27 and all is well. Going to hang out there for a while

Thanks for warning me in here though! More people need to watch out for each other in these forums! Seems like posting non-strictly developmental related items in these S4 threads though these days is liable to get one shot against the wall, so I understand why it is so silent. Such a pity. :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Bear in mind this is not a development thread. This is a general forum thread. It just happens to be the only one for this ROM.

I am among the biggest sticklers for wanting dev threads to be exclusively about development. But this is not a development thread. This is a general info thread.

So those kinds of warnings are perfectly suited to a general forum thread.

About nightlies...unless you are a flashaholic and just need to update whenever possible (and I'm not judging...we've all been there!) there really isn't a need to update this ROM daily unless you see something of particular interest in the change log. For the most no art changes are relatively minor. Remember this was not started from scratch. The cm10.1 base code was already very far along she. This device came out and the builds began for it. So while there is steady improvement, its not like every new nightly is introducing 12 new must have features.

For this reason I find that waiting 4-5 days between updates gives me the feel of what is improving without the hassle of flashing every day or feeling like I'm missing out on something.

Just a idea. But if you want to flash every nightly....believe me I understand!

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAnarchist1:
Oh I totally understand about the daily flashing. I tend to only update every two or three days when I see something juicy pop up. Yeah, I hear that about the development forums. I suppose, at least to me, it just seems like having double forums only further adds to the chaos here in this segment. It does not much seem to help, except to get people fighting.

On a more related note though. The only issue I am really having with this rom right now, is the DSP manager continues to cut out, and will not restart until I reboot. I have tried EVERYTHING, to fix it, to no avail. Any ideas? :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
I had that issue in the morning... What I did was remove the SIM and put it back in then reboot... Havent had a problem so far... Hope it helps...

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 PM ----------

Ive used DSP in more than one phone and I have never heard a very significant change... I have set the DSP EQ for low bass because my speakers sound terrible without it (DSP) and I have tried it with it (DSP) on and they still sound with too much bass... I use Equalizer from the play store and it works better for me, but thats just me... Jejeee
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Personally I've never gotten DSP manager to work right since CM7. So I never try it much. It was completely worthless on my HTC Sensation for the last year and a half.

I haven't even messed with it on the S4 yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gparmar76:
The call bug is still present with the latest 6/28 nightly...is there any feedback on this? Every other call, I can't hear anything and the person I call can't hear me...aside from that, CM is easily the best ROM out for the S4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] chiensibut:
i there been a fix for front facing camera stretching yet?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
How much space did you all have after installing CM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DevinQuigley:
I've went with the GOO MANAGER app. It allows you to reboot into recovery. Not sure about picasa though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Unjustified Dev:
I think its in development options tab build number in about phone like 6 times and in development options there is advanced reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] geekilized:
9.72 GB
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Thanks for the info, can't believe how little storage you have left even with custom roms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Well the internal storage is partitioned from the factory in a way to give the state, like 4gb of space. That isn't really adjustable. So even though a custom ROM uses less of the system partition, the storage is still partitioned the original way.

Just get an external SD card. They are super cheap. 16gb of extra storage is readily available for $8. 32gb can be had for around $20

can you just make a zip that will add ir blaster, so we can add it to any nightly..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
If you can, that will be awesome!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wavrunrx:
+1 here as well !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BobbyHill:
Dumb question, but is it possible to pull the browser this rom uses and install it on the stock rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
Just go to the root directory of your phone and look for the system folder then apps anl look for the browser apk and copy it to your sd card... Also I think the original android browser its on the play store but it doesnt have the all the features that the CM version have...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BobbyHill:
Thanks, found it in the app folder and copied it to SD.

Is there some trick to getting it to install on the other rom? It keeps saying installing.... then stop and says application not installed, with no error messages or anything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
Youll probably will have to set it as a system app just look for the same directory (system/app) on the other rom, copy the apk to the directory and set permissions r-r-rw...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cwalker0906:
There is a thread in the theme and apps section with proper files and how to install
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] traicer:
so IR blaster doesnt work? i thought it was fixed a couple a builds ago? what else seems to be broken in the latest nightly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Greg1964:
Does anyone know if there's a 4G icon for this ROM for I can replace the h with 4G icon. Thanks in advance...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
H and 4G are two different things.

It will say H when you at on an HSPA network and 4G when you are on an LTE network.

In other words it already has a 4G icon in there. You just need to be on a 4G cell tower to use it.

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Greg1964:
So what's better as far as speed,etc h or 4G.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
4G if you have a good connection.

H is next fastest.

E is 3rd

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] coyttl:
Interesting. I've had mine come up with 'LTE' before. :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Greg1964:
Hey it says H+ or 3G.Is H+ like Lte? Thanks bud.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] smashcz:
I think 4G = LTE

H+ = hspa+

3G = hspa

E = edge
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] layzer253:
Correct 4G is LTE on CM. On stock roms LTE shows up as LTE. It would be nice if CM did the same thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
Anyone else constantly losing one bar on their WiFi, then it goes back to full?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Abolfazl:
Smart Remote

On the subject of different frequencies. Has anyone else notice that cm 10.1 is not getting anywhere near as good as signal is a stock rom?

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------

Pretty sure works I use it about everyday. If its not working for you may want to try clean install.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
That's the only reason why I switched to a GE ROM. I'll go back to cm 10.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Come on in the waters fine. Still waiting on photosphere but other than that, great daily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
Flashed the 7-3 ROM this time. Same thing. Google Now, and voice apps don't work. It's not a force close, where it freezes, but it opens up in less than a second, then it disappears.

How are people getting it to work. This is on 2 different nightlies, so I know it's not a nightly specific issue. I'm also not a noob at flashing. I flashed as I normally would, and even gave the phone a little longer to cool down before reboot.

I can't be the only one.

EDIT: WOW. A quick Google search is my friend. I searched "google search" under playstore, then updated it. Did the trick. In case, anyone else has the same problem, just update "GOOGLE SEARCH" through the playstore.

In the words of the great FLOSSYCARTER, Cyanogenmod is now a MAJOR GO!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
You would hope not. Honestly I just jump back on here recently myself trying to get some info on the s4. I haven't seen anybody else mentioned that problem though, that's really crazy.

I know you said you're not a noob but sometimes we forget the simple stuff. Did you try fixing permissions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
I haven't compared it to stock, but my signal is weak. Have you actually looked at dB readings on both roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Greg1964:
I flashed build dates 6/23 and 7/2 I did a clean flash both times.and each time that I flashed the rom when I was using the rom it would just freeze up on so I flash another rom.Is anyone else experiencing this same problem. Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Had a 4G connection at house for the 4 hours it took me to decided that it sooo needed some CM10.1. Now I never see it at home. Also comparing it to wifes connection when we are together. I won't leave because of it, but could definitely be improved.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dukeoflove:
I'm curious as why we still haven't had an official thread for this in the development
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gsa2074:
I wondered the same thing!!! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] traicer:
We don't really have a maintainer for our device =/ that's why.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dukeoflove:
I thought steve kondik himself is the maintainer for this device.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Jfltetmo_Info
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
He is.

But he isn't going to maintain a thread here on XDA, so no Dev Thread.

Nothing wrong with that. Be more han happy that Cyanogen himself is maintaing the device. He doesn't need a dev hread to assist in that process! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tweezit:
All Steve needs is another thread to try and maintain with everything else in his life going on :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CamperKiller:
Any chances he will be focusing on the camera bugs soon? That would be cool. Maybe I have a bad flash going on but the camera takes dark gray pictures when it errors out, destroying my best photo ops. :banghead:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gparmar76:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Konshu:
Can you explain said call bug? I use my nightly as a daily driver on my S4 and I have not noticed any issues with calls.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gparmar76:
I flashed the 7/4 nightly and so far the bug seems to be gone...it plagued the earlier builds where half the calls, once answered neither side could hear each other...and calls didn't work on headphones at all...the muted calls seem to be gone but I noticed, when using headphones, calls are only heard through the left ear...still its much better than before.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darkjedi:
Deleted. Forgot to quote. >_<
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ItsAaronR:
Just curious, anyone else's mic seem really low when recording videos (snapchat, or even using camera?) not sure if I should do a fresh install or if this is just a bug. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yogi2010:
I just shot a test video, and the volume does seem low to me, yes. I also just listened to an mp3, but the volume on that was nice and high.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ItsAaronR:
Thank you! Yeah music and even hangout calls seem to work great, just recordings/snapchat videos seem low.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] caloyzki:
Lte not capable on this rom?

hi is LTE capable on this rom? can some one confirm? i only get 4G. not LTE for this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tino_b:
If you see 4g that means that you're in LTE. Just check in about phone/status and you'll see it there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tikay00:
Google wallet not compatible with this ROM. Gonna get fixed soon?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cgonz905:
Was there an update today? Because I don't think I got one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cosine83:
It's a carrier restriction that requires a bit of modification to fix. See the dev section.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] michacho:
Did someone check out the new nightly? I got the impression that the camera got better, can someone second that? Before this nightly it felt kind of bugged.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Anyone else seeing/know what it is, I'm getting a DC next to signal strength.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
Thats the norm on CM10 actually showing the real designation for the signal that you are getting... A little confusing but thats how it is... Its better than back when I had the OG EVO on stock rom telling me that I had 3g when I was actually running 1x speeds...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kirdroid:
The way it should be... Useless carriers screw up everything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
So it showing 3G then every few seconds showing DC is normal. It only started doing it when I flash the new nightly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yogi2010:
i just flashed today's 20130706 nightly, and when i try to open the camera it says 'camera has been disabled because of security policies'. haven't found any setting yet to change it... anyoe else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
Yes, for me DC has been showing for almost the begining of CM development on this device though... I guess it will show depending on your location and the towers around you...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yogi2010:
edit: finally found the answer! had to disable the camera widget on the lock screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Do you have anything checked such as data roaming or national data roaming? Just wondering if that makes difference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GrndSers-Rcng:
This are my settings, plus my APN is not the Lte one im using the hspa+ APN because in my location I get more than double of speed with it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dorkdotcom74:
Thanks again for the info. At least I can fell better knowing it's normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yogi2010:
Nevermind
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] traicer:
is there a reason why the IR blaster fix hasn't been applied?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gparmar76:
MMS seems to have stopped working on latest nightly...anyone else have this issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CamperKiller:
Maybe they just haven't gotten around to it or it's just experimental or maybe it's incompatible with this build or maybe it's too complex? Or maybe some other reason, who knows. One thing at a time, though. That's the way CM always works. If there's a legitimate reason, someone please chime in.

But, I would like to know about the ghetto blaster as well. So, for me, I will be checking the "BBQ Android Changelog" frequently to find out.

Just search for that phrase online, click "Samsung" then click "Galaxy S4 TMO" and then you can check out the next nightly planned updates whenever you want, just to see what's in store.

But trust me when I say, it probably won't be long now if there really is a fix out there like you are suggesting. It's only a cherry pick away.

But, remember that CM is typically on a completely different Kernel than stock or other ROMs so fixes come when they get developed.

But what do I know? I don't build ROMs. ::shrug:: lmfao :what:

Here's the direct link for now: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cosine83:
There is already a fix out there in the CM source and there's an unofficial ROM with cherry picks in it. It just looks like it hasn't been approved to go into the official nightlies yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
It also depends on the nature of the it fix. If its a dirty fix, meaning the fix is hacked together without source code, cm won't ever include it. One of cm's rules is that official releases have to contain legitimate fixes, not dirty fixes.

Its not a snobbish thing though. Dirty fixes often work great, but can cause other issues with other parts of the system. So cm won't include them.

geeze. another link, with another differently named file.

can someone please clarify if there are differences between the 3?

we now have the Goomanager app telling us 5/4-skank, we have another source of 5/4 with no skank tag, and now an experimental tag.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] accudetuner:
If you have either the SKANK or non-SKANK versions (lol) installed already, you can do a CM update through the settings to the first official nightly. Menu > System Settings > About Phone >CyanogenMod Updates (make sure you allow nightly builds to show the update). Quick and easy :good:

I just did this and the camera issue is gone. I don't have an SD so I can't verify if it fixes that or not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
"experimental" is always the first from CM. i'm not sure where the "skank" build came from. i'm guessing it was an individual's attempt to build it for our device from the cm repos or something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trev420:
just flashed the experimental. first thing i notice is it connected straight to H and not E. The skank version connected to E first for acouple mins for some reason.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAtheistOtaku:
Flashing new build now to fond out if SD is fixed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
well... it is the first official release. "experimental" is the key word. give it two weeks or so. she'll be flying. especially since this is Steve's daily driver. ha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trev420:
my comment was a good one, its good that it went straight to the 4g and not edge.

and yea, im glad this is his device for sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] accudetuner:
Another thing I noticed is that the "skank" version was sucking down the battery and the phone started to get hot from the CPU running. I didn't have it installed long enough to narrow down the cause of it, but the official nightly CM release isn't doing the same thing. It's staying cool and actually effectively charging the battery now. Kudos to the CM team yet again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trev420:
doesnt hold much weight im sure, BUT, i got a chance to run antutu before i restored back to stock from skank.

skank barely pushed 20k.

experimental just got 22k.

just sayin
