I've had my phone since the 2nd. Not 1 error or reboot. I've also been running cm nightlies for the past week as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ferlogan:
I actually have a problem when I'm on the Internet or doing other things. My phone just got stock on a blue screen and I can't do anything to get out of it. I hav3 to turn off my phone in order to ho back . It happens to me like 8 times since I got the phone im frustrating :(

..

One question did you install the flash player app from the web
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tangyoulei:
i didn't install the adobe flash player, nor did i install a different rom. everything is stock. i fully factory reset the phone once and after that i even didn't disable or delete any bloat ware. but the random shutting down still happens... annoying:eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wmccann2:
Mine has done the same thing twice, first time assumed it was me (before the latest firmware upgrade which "improves stability") the second time it was in my pocket, took it out and it was off - thought battery was dead but tried to switch it on anyway and guess what, battery was 90%+

Have no idea why it shut off - stock rom, only "odd" app is Good for enterprise .

Could it be related to overheating in the pocket?

Anyone got any ideas?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cyberz:
Happen to me and to some other Italian guys, too! In my case, the I9500 turn off itself, sometimes reboot itself, just now! Depends from the rom, I don't know why. One rom reboot it, try another rom and after a bit of second shutdown it. And always after tha the display go off:(

I9505 not, it had only the problem of the audio crackle, for now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] RTudoRR:
I am also having this issue , please if someone can help...

I am having an i9500 (octa core version) and running	United Arab Emirates	2013 June	4.2.2	I9500XXUBMEA	I9500OJVBMEA	firmware (stock , no root) , frequently when the phone is locked it will shut down on it's own and I have to keep the power button held a bit longer than usual for it to start (like 20 seconds) , I do not want to root it because the company I bought it from is not that...good....so I am very afraid of sending it to their service department , please , any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nazzza:
There is some update about this problem?

I have stock, randomly turns off, sometimes I have to take out the battery to turn the phone on.

It's the only problem I have with the S 4, for the rest is the perfect phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] RTudoRR:
It's a firmware issue as far as I could tell Good luck finding a good one , I gave up and traded my i9500 for a i9505.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunestwo:
I found out that if i put my phone in the loader it shuts off... Maybe battery problem..

Sutting itself down

Hi

My S4 is randomly shutting itself down when in my pocket, can you advise how to rectify this situation please?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hellion_zk:
Ok so i may have isolated the cause. at least a physical one. I am an electrician, and i do a LOT of repetitive tasks so i love listening to music while i work. thats when i noticed a pattern to the problem. and this will blow your mind.

( I do not recommend you try this yourself unless you particularily like the sound of 700$ going SNAP)

i took my phone out of my pocket, and by pressing both thumbs on the center of the screen and physicaly bending the phone forward, ( Dont give me crap for this, im smarter than most and i understand limitations. I was impressed that this phone can bend nearly a full 1/8th of an inch!) i was able to replicate the problem.

My theory is, since samsung used a softer plastic for there entire frame, and since the phone is so thin, when ever id bend down, (Pulling pants tighter across my thigh with the phone facing my leg) it would bend and physicaly seperate the metal pins that contact the battery.

PS: just got home, DGAF about spelling right now. is it this hot for anyone else right now!? lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] belushi619:
I've been running the GT-I9505G play edition phone for the last month and only in the last week has the phone began to reboot on its own. What's strange about it is it usually happens when I'm not using the phone. I've seen it reboot maybe a dozen times over the last week. The phone always reboots and doesn't just turn off.

I'm going to see if factory reset takes care of the problem, if not I guess back to Google for a retread...

Thanks B
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] spicy_puerto_rican:
Yes I do a lot of bending down and I always have my body in awkward angles while working on the flight line and I used to have the same exact problem at work. I always thought that my S4's shutting off was due to the tiny half a mm gap between the bottom of my 7500mAh ZeroLemon Extended Battery and the bottom of the phone's battery slot, in-turn causing the battery to move inside my S4 and make the battery disconnect from the pins. I noticed a tiny gap in the fitting of the battery to the phone and that the battery was never really snug as much as it was with the 3500mAh Anker Extended Battery for my S3; it's really easy to remove the ZeroLemon battery and thought the battery shouldn't be easy to remove.

So I figured it was either the gap causing it to shut off or my movements somehow causing the power button to be pushed while it was in my pocket. I had a feeling it couldn't be the latter though because the thigh-located cargo/map pockets of my ABU's are a bit too large to not have enough room in the pocket for the power button to be pushed. I ended up solving my shutting off problem by cutting a very small piece of thick, durable paper the length of the S4's battery slot and I used the paper as a shim between the bottom edge of the ZeroLemon battery and my S4's battery slot to close the miniscule gap. Since I did used a thick piece of paper as a shim, I've yet to get any sudden shut-off's... even with the amount of times I bend down and move in ways that would cause it to shut off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] astbok:
I just recently have same issues, it is turning off while the battery is not dead! i have tries to reset the factory setting but it dose not help at all.

what frustrated that Samsung mobile costumer services in UK is not helping much!!!

any help please
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Deleted member 2747343:
if your phone shuts off and than you try to restart it and the battery is a lot lower than before than your battery is broken
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] james_xda:
I get exactly what you describe, only takes a slight bend to shutdown. doesn't do it with the back cover off, without the cover the battery moves out slightly and the phone stays on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mma:
I have the same issue with a different angle.

My Galaxy S4 (GT-I9050) is turning itself off randomly, the battery indicator show it is more that 70% full. I did all sorts of factory resets and change different ROMs, I even reverted to stock ROM but it still happened.

I noticed that it never turns off while it is connected to a power supply, which indicated a battery issue.

I checked on the net and some reported battery problems – bulging - due to keeping it charging overtime. My battery appeared ok until I compared it to a new one; it is notably swollen / bulged so I think I need to change it – it only 4 months old.

I owned many phones over the years and most of the time I keep it charging overnight without a problem, my understanding is that phones stop charging when the battery is full; does the S4 continuously charge?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ramboky:
Same thing happened to me, just a few months old, random reboots but never when connected to a power supply. Checked the battery and it looked a little puffy. Replaced it and I've not had a problem since.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alinzm:
I have same problem too, any body can help us???:rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fking1:
here are my observations about the problem

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] neee:
Ye, I cheked it.

Just change batter and have fun! :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bluejeanstv:
Same here. It happened to me and my phone is new! I think it was hot. This phone gets really hot. I'm also on rooted stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] epic999:
Had same issue, took phone to samsung service centre and they replaced the battery and micro usb. they said if you dont replace the charging port it will happen again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rizky_Cassanova:
i actually think this is the most logical reason! so, the point is, its a battery problem?

i conclude, changing my battery could solve the problem or no? because my phone

keep turning itself off like every 10 minutes, and to turn it back on sometimes i have to unplug the battery and

plug it again, its so frustrating i wanna change to iphone,.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Joe_6pak:
THANKS! Your solution appears to have worked for me. Was really getting frustrated by the shutoffs, and since inserting the shim, I haven't had any (wood knocking sound). Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] christoophat:
Also consider a faulty power switch too, as this is known to cause similar behavior, causing phone to reboot itself or turn off.

Been dealing with this currently with a used phone I got.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] IgIMaPa:
Hello Dave,

I'm new in this forum. I had the same problem like you. So, my problem was with the Lollipop software. After automatically upgrading of software my phone was "shocked". I mean, he start to switch off it self every time when I leave on the table or in a car holder. My phone was under warranty, and local company remove Lollipop and change with original software.

Please try with this activity.

P.S. Sorry if my English is not so good

Regards
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] christoophat:
Are you saying that your Galaxy S4 upgraded to Lollipop OTA from Samsung?:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GaryDeCanada:
Thanks alot! That really helped me. Looks like size of batteries slightly differ, and when I walk/run, my Galaxy S4 was shutting down.

This started when I changed the battery from Chinese (discharged really quick), to Korean. Korean lasts longer, but I guess was little bit loose.

Put a slice of paper, and that's it! Fixed!

Please note these builds are under heavy development!

Known issues

Vibrations during audio playback may cause weird distortion

Headset in-call mic uses phone

Since the SGS4 is so new, development is happening very rapidly. This should be taken into consideration when flashing any 4.2.2 AOSP-based builds on the device. Known issues will be listed here.

Oh sweet! I'll have to flash this and try it out later!

Thanks!

Ahhhhh cant wait for at&t support! This is all I've ran in my other devices!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
This build will effectively be turned from i337M to i337 once the AT&T bootloader is (publicly) unlocked. This is what we've done w/ our d2att-d2tmo build (it's for d2att, d2tmo & d2can respectively), except this time tmo gets their own build.

Also if anybody is actually running the latest CM nightly, could you confirm that reboot is indeed working under all circumstances? I'm able to reboot fine but no dice when plugged in charging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] David Dee:
This is awesome blk_jack!! Am going to flash soon!

Guys, I have been enjoying blk_jack's builds since my Desire Z days...without a doubt, he is one of the top dev's here. We are in for a treat with this one....

Mine just rebooted fine while plugged into the wall charger on 20130510.

And on usb into computer... worked fine too.

Not sure if usb debugging would change anything

Edit: nevermind, just tried with developer settings on and off, no difference.

All works fine here ^^
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Rhamza161:
cannot wait for the bootloader to be unlocked at the end of the month! Hard to watch the days go by so slowly...slimbean is one of my favorite ROMs...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] bigbuffalo:
All seems to be great for beta release. Much appreciated. Keep up the great work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] mauserruger:
Great Beta Rom!!! No complaints... thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] bigbuffalo:
I've been using this all day. Battery life is fantastic. Great work!!! One minor bug, when I connect by Bluetooth to the car, no issues. However, when I receive a call and answer, I cannot hear the person calling me and they cannot hear me. When I disconnect the Bluetooth, everything is working again. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
In call bluetooth and headset were the only things I haven't been able to test myself. Will test with a bluetooth transmitter tomorrow though and report back.

Also I too have had fantastic battery life. Looks like about an hour extra screen on time over my s3.

Kinds curious,

Did all of your flash the latest TWRP via Goo and then flash the ROM?

I've been reading TWRP is kinda buggy still but wanted to make sure everyone has had a good experience

I'm on a Rogers s4 btw

Thanks guys, can't wait to flash!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] mattdm:
I'm extremely excited to see this here. I've been running SlimBean on my i777 for a long time, and I've never found anything better. When I unlock my bootloader at the end of the month, this will be the first thing I flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] hostilebynature:
Hey, im also on a rogers s4...Yup that's exactly how i did it actually.

TWRP is kinda buggy..the touch scrolling bar is kinda squirrelly (super sensitive)...but you CAN get it to scroll..just have to be patient..very...

BUT it did the job just fine and this phone is flying right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
Wow , just flashed and this is fantastic. My question is..

Is it possible to change the lock screen 's' icon to the stock look? That's really the only thing I'd like to change

I know it's just aesthetics, but I like as close a feel to stock as possible

Thanks guys
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] wally3614:
You can learn to do it yes...slim has always had it and I doubt they r about to change it :) I think it is awesome and is part of a *custom* ROM ;)

Hey, I can't seem to change the dpi , any reasons why? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] greekunit690:
In the faq on their website I think thats the 2nd or 3rd question. I tried it before but the link was broken never really tried again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
Question #3 in our FAQ: How can I change the lockscreen handle back to stock?

There's a flashable zip linked that reverts it back here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
thanks a ton

this ROM has breathed new life into my S4 - it's such a pleasure using it now

i love the stock feel and it's SOOO much faster than TW

no lag or stutters - i love it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] mcmb03:
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO THIS TO ME!?!?

Now I'm going to be giddy all the way up until the bootloader is unlocked O_o

Thanks though, glad to see some are already working on development :good: :svetius:

1 last thing, does this use a CM base? because I noticed you mentioned you haven't been able to test bluetooth yet, so if it does the in call bluetooth won't work yet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
Slim, like all non nexus ROMs (or most) use CM's device branches. These device branches are from upstream resources (qcom in this case ). This means that upstream related issues are going to be shared across all ROMs. While it is possible for slim to maintain our own separate upstream branches, CM's are the most actively maintained and where developers submit patches and such.

That said, the rom itself is based on AOSP, not CM, but we do have a bunch of CM features in the ROM of course.

CyanogenMod is the largest pillar of the android rom community. Many devs, including many not on the CM team submit patches and fixes to their codebase.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Jercote:
Does the sound quality remain the same? And how is your phone benchmarking with this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
Is anyone else getting soft reboot when they try making or receiving a call?

I'm on rogers s4

Can't seem to make a call or receive. Everything there's no sound from the speaker and the phone starts lagging then reboots...

On latest 5.2 build with the GAPPS from front page. Only mod I did was flash the stock lock screen icon from the slim bean faq
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
Haven't ever witnessed that myself, made and received half a dozen calls today. Did you wipe /system manually before flashing the rom? I assume you wiped /data.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
Ya I wiped everything before flashing.

I dunno, I can try clearing everything again but it's pretty serious where when I make a call the screen flashes and the phone reboots...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
You're going to have to link me to the logs you've taken since this is something I haven't had reported at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
how do i pull the log for you?

do i just reproduce the problem then pull the log from a folder?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] blk_jack:
Sorry but there are many, many resources out there that better explain this process and the process of debugging and reproducing issues on Android.

Rule of thumb though. If you're posting about an issue in a beta thread you need a method of reliably reproducing it (with steps and under what conditions) as well as a log (logcat, last_kmsg).

If you don't have these things you definitely shouldn't be posting in this [development] thread.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] cordell12:
not getting any reports of this on the Sprint version either
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
Sorry for asking, I've pulled the lastkmsg

It's very easily reproduced if I receive a call. I've attached last kmsg

Basically receive a call and my phone begins lagging horribly and will sometimes reboot or won't stop lagging until I reboot

Also making/receiving calls has no audio for me

i will wipe my phone tonight and reflash to see if it makes a difference
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Bakedbread:
So I just did a clean wipe and re flashed and everything is working properly

Not sure what it was but I just tried calling and receiving and phone is working fine now

I flashed the AIO package this time, not sure if that made a difference.

Hope you can find something in the kmsg

Thanks for responding though, really appreciate it
