I'm glad I have not been ignored by the CM team completely and that my device tree was finally merged after 3 weeks! It seems they decided to go with jfltexx instead of i9505. Doesn't really matter. Thank you all for helping out in getting my own S4 and in helping me kickstart a device into official CM support!

I'm sure the official nightlies will catch up and will be as good as any other 'stable' releases for other devices. I am concluding the compilation of my unofficial builds from today. I will try to update Rootbox or any other rom that interests me (AOSPA?). CM will always be the backbone to any rom, so whatever you use keep in mind that it all started here. Thanks to everyone who used my builds! Good times for i9505 owners have come.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3bs11:
Good times will hopefully be coming but they haven't yet unfortunately. Your build seems to have less bugs than the official CM right now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
Thanks for your work buddy, cm on S4 will be glorious :)

Thank you for all you've done I really hope you get your S4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Stevemeister:
You can flash baseband with either Odin or a zip file via recovery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simondavies315:
The first official Nightly build is on the CM site :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3bs11:
No need to go to every CM thread and post this without even reading that people have already known about it the whole day. Not the way to get people to press your thanks button.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simondavies315:
I didn't know :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] om22:
What about the camera? Is it working with full 13MPx?

Is 1080p record at 30fps available?

Quite impressive that this thing is such stable at the second release.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] enori:
First of all, thanks for great work. I have no complaints, everything is working fine. I failed at flashing from twrp at first, but then I discovered that for me, only flashing from external sd card works, and takes one or two tries. I flashed it on stock rom.

Dzięki wielkie, śmiga pięknie! Czy masz normalnie nazwę operatora? U mnie są liczby. Łatwo to można zmienić, ale zastanawiam się, czy to coś u mnie

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] joelvn:
Mine got stuck on formatting cache too, I then just turned off phone, booted into CWM and tried it again. Then it took 3 seconds and it was done. Maybe you can try that?

Also, I'm downloading the new build right now. Will let it download while I'm sleeping and flash it when I wake up! Well report back with results when I did.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] rkaede:
so this build flashable using twrp and cwm?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] deathnotice01:
is the temperature sensor working with this btw?

downloading it now and will flash it right away :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3473:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sh4z:
@QuickSkope What version of Odin are you using (Just out of curiosity)? I've had success with v3.07 you can download it here

MD5: 0f8515af8d3c15b102c18b2b2f390ba6

I notice in your signature it says; SGH-I337M ... This thread is really for CM10.1 on GT-I9505...

So CWM touch is a bit O/T... I hope your not flashing incompatible software. ^^ (I guess we sort of all are anyway XD)

Well right now the unofficial builds work better but hopefully that will change soon.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] I9000bramgmail:
anyone tested the new official build of today? is this one working without baseband trouble?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
Apparently not (according to the Official Nightly thread), but I have uploaded a new build (20130610) that is working perfecly fine if you check on my thread in the OP :)

I have fixed the carrier name for most users (if you do a clean install it looks like NOT upgrade). Check my thread for download links. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] skyline10:
I just want to say you thanks for your work
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
Press the thanks button then ;) and if you're feeling generous hit the donate button :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] chris41g:
Are you doing development on this device? Also are you a CM dev?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
I am not an official maintainer however I am currently still building UNOFFICIAL ROMs that most users seem to think is better than the current OFFICIAL ROMs (at this point in time). Check out my thread (click Samsung Galaxy S4 in my signature), flash it and leave some comments on my thread. :) I'm going to carry on building my CM ROMs until the official ROMs are up and running a bit better.. :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] chris41g:
why not submit your changes to CM to improve the official builds?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] invisiblek:
If your builds are that much better, I invite you to submit code upstream to CM to fix things quicker.

To sit and ask for donations for unofficial builds is pretty crappy IMO. Especially given the changes that I see you are actually making are minimal at best.

Removing the format of /system is a bad idea and definitely not a fix. Are you even sure that /system is being mounted and written to during a flash where it would fail to format? My guess is you are writing to tmpfs and the changes will not be there when you boot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
No changes to be made as of yet - invisiblek (our official maintainer) forgot to add the required libs to the official nightlies which he has already stated which means the official nightlies aren't working just yet. Also my ROMs have the assert ro lines and format system lines removed from the updater-script which allows them to flash straight away and invisiblek is also against this for obvious reasons however we don't have a constantly working recovery for the i9505 as of yet either so we have to make do. :)

---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

Like I just said in the previous post; I'm not saying my builds are better - they just flash correctly for the reasons stated, otherwise they're the same as the official builds which I've stated numerous times...

I'm not asking for donations, I simply stated I appreciate them as I have a right to along with any other developer who gives up their time for the XDA Community. You also have a donate to me button under your name. I'm not criticising in anyway shape, or form just saying that the official builds aren't fully functional.

I tried helping you yesterday with the recovery however adb was not enabled in the recovery... Not much I can do about that... I tried to manually make a log but I could not access the log because in order to connect my phone to the computer to put it in a state where I can access the files from a computer I had to wipe everything - wiping the recovery log with it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] chris41g:
oh.. your version removes all the safety features to prevent people from bricking their phone.. in an effort to bypass a faulty recovery.

also, libs take 1 day to be in nightlies.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
Correct, users know the risks when they come into the world of flashing ROMs. Vic did it initially and clearly stated it as have I.

For the record I would just like to state I never release builds without testing them on my own personal device first.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] live-evil:
I don't think removing the assert lines is necessary any more. Only the format line is needed to be removed. Or am i wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HazAnwar:
Just built a ROM and from it I made 4 zips (each with a different updater-script change i.e. 1 has nothing changed, 2 has no assert line, 3 has no format line, and 4 has no assert or format line)

I boot into recovery (using CWM - PhilZ) and then go to "Mounts and Storage" and "format /system"... It wipes first time and I do a quick reboot just to ensure that it doesn't get past the Samsung boot screen onto the CM boot animation to ensure it's wiped correctly. (It doesn't - I waited about 5 minutes...)

Flash zip number 1 first and get the following error:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "jfltexx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "jfltexx"
E:Error in /external_sd/Download/cm-10.1-20130610-UNOFFICIAL-jfltexx.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Flash zip number 3 and I get the same problem as with number 1...

Flash zip number 2 and it gets to "Installing update..." the bar is empty and it stays like that for a few minutes before getting just a normal status 7 error... After the status 7 error I also get a bunch of other things showing up like

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Flash zip number 4 and of course installs perfectly first time as expected, carry onto then install Google Apps and then Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik, Fix Permissions and reboot... Back to lock screen.

Note: after flashing each zip I "format /system" again and then "Reboot Recovery"
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chema_F:
I had an eye on your "unofficial Rootbox" thread for i9505 and I was worried, wondering if you would have been kidnapped in a mars attack or something.. :) Seriously, it's your life and of course I do respect that. Only that I'm soooo anxious for seeing Rootbox swagger in my phone..

Regards.

Just so you know a dev working on the T Mobile variant of the S4 has the IR Blaster working.

I'M PUTTING UP THE LINK FOR REFFERENCE ONLY!

Do not flash on your i9505 unless you really know what you're doing and how to flash ROMs built for other variants.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42956676&postcount=462

So I'd imagine that functionality should be ported to builds for other variants soon enough.

My phone is rooted, latest firmware flashed and have TWRP 2.6 flashed too.

Is the first part of the OP relevant to me? "Is it possible to flash the jfltetmo on our i9505? or will it brick?"<---

I'm on the Three network, UK. Just want to make sure before my phone implodes :laugh:

You can port it. You need to use a 9505 kernel with it. There are guides on what to do on xda. Find one and follow it carefully.

Hi,

I need your help....

No (click) sound when press on back button

Hi guys

I hope this is the proper thread to ask such question, well after I installed the stable cm 10.1 (4.2.2) on my i9505, everything is fine and the rom is perfect, but I am still facing this issue, which is the back button is not playing the click sound when I press it, such as the menu button or the touch screen, I have checked the sound option, it was enabled, I thought maybe there was something wrong with the installation, then I did it again after full clean, but it didnt work also. So is that normal or is there anything wrong??

Please help me out.

Thanks

Nasser
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pitcher85:
I am not on CM10.1 but on CM10.2 and switched on the touch sounds.

I normally never use them because they are really annoying for other people arround you ;) and the haptic feedback is enough for me.

My results: For me the back and home button both don't give sounds.

It might be that this is just the idea of Android: Starting some actions is playing a sound, but exiting applications or going back do not result in a sound.

Maybe somebeody else on a stock ROM can tell you if the home and back button are providing sound feedback.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nk33:
bootloops all the way

i have the "e: /unable to mount efs error" ...i have spent hours and hours and days trying to fix the efs error but have just given up

i found the link anyway using good old google. CM 10.1 is the only ROM which works beautifully!

thanks mate
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Update your recovery, then update your ROM. I don't know why anyone would want to be using Jelly Bean in mid-2015 on a device that has near-stable Android 5.1 lollipop.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nk33:
ok - really good response - considering i just told you what has happened to my phone - you tell me to upgrade my recovery and upgrade my rom.

i just told you i have spent hours trying to fix an efs issue which is preventing me from using a jellybean or lolipop yet you insist on giving me basic advice.

have you look up the error i mentioned?? if you had you would have seen it is virtually unfixable without a backup of my efs folder, which i havent got.

anyway 10.1 is fine - i am just resurrecting my s4 to give to my dad - i was gonna throw it away so cm 10.1 is a gorgeous bonus!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
I had this issue back in early 2014 - updating the recovery to a kit-kat compatible one and doing a full wipe & re-install of my CM11 ROM at the time (system, data, etc) fixed the issue for me. No need to get mad. I can't speak for your situation though - maybe your EFS partition is corrupt, in which case you'll find that you won't get a working cell service anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Reflash stock touchwiz latest lollipop version then reroot and install twrp then flash new rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nk33:
i tried all the above and just get bootloops - cm10.1 is the only one which works. Having said that i may have got excited too early as i havent put a sim card in it yet - are you guys saying it wont work then? i have nothing in my efs folder...

sorry for getting mad - but this whole situation has driven me mad - cant understand why I simply cant find a tool which sorts this out in 2015. Hardware-wise the phone is fine - dont get it. If a computer is all good in tewrms of hardware, it doesnt matter whats wrong with it, you can wipe and do a fresh instal - why cant i do the same with my S4?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
No offence if your efs folder not working your screwed but flashing stock Samsung touchwiz rom using Odin all ways work because it wipes your whole phone before installing the new firmware basically like a computer there are problems you reinstall the firmware but it wipes everything first
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nk33:
ok - on my travels over the last 2 weeks i also tried this. i flashed the PIT file along with stock firmware using ODIn. it works apart from one thing - the phone is stuck in factory mode and i cant get it out of factory mode because removing factory mode involves making changes to files in my EFS folder which is................yeah you guessed it....still empty LOL.

and get this, even if i creat the imei folder and create a file in it which turns off factory mode, when i reboot it removes my hard work and i have factory mode again!

unbelievable
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Take it to a computer/phone repair shop explain the problem see if they can do anything about because no offence downgrading to cm10.1 won't make a difference to your efs folder
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nk33:
ok, just to clarify, if my efs folder is screwed does that mean the phone itself wont work with a sim?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Yes
