i would advise always making full backup. You can always just backup data. When you open the custom backup menu you can Google each partition to see what you want to backup.

Jfltexx and jflte are the same. Jflte is currently what i9505 and its variants are in. I9500 is not the same as i9505 and may cause bricks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sadonlyone:
[MENTION=4576115]phooeyllama[/MENTION]

we talking strictly about philz cwm, right ?

so, as we all know : i9505 = galaxy s4 lte = jfltexx and i9500 = galaxy s4 = jflte

philz advanced cwm > goo.im folders shows: /jfltexx , /jflte , /i9500

i9500 folder is "more updated".

and again philz develop same cwm for both jfltexx and jflte.

why remaining 3 folders then? and for i9505 which is latest update? 10x.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] FlanjeUK:
No No No...

i9505 = S4 LTE = jflte (was jfltexx, now unified)

i9500 = S4 = ja3gxx

They are NOT the same phone
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sadonlyone:
I see.

but still:

there is no i9500 = S4 = ja3gxx
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] emilcioran99:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sadonlyone:
so S4 = i9500 = jflte = ja3gxx ?!? at least that's what I understand from philz goo.im

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hanspampel:

jflte(alias jfltexx)=i9505 (S600)

ja3gxx=i9500 (Exynos). But on PhilZ it runs under i9500!!!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] svenk:
I have a huge problem. I cannot restore my backup with philz_touch_6.29.2-jflte!

Like for some other person(s) that I found in the forums, it gives me an "Error while restoring /data" after restoring system quite well before. When I then reboot the phone, it wants to start over with the initial setup, but I cannot do anything because Google Play Service crashes all the time (popping an alert in front of all).

I now flashed my previous philz_touch_6.15.4-jfltexx and tried restoring the backup with that. I made the backup with the newer verson, though -- and it gave me the same "Error while restoring /data". I have an older backup (seven weeks ago) that I try now. If it does not work, I need to do a factory reset. I am kind of alert and, yes, disappointed.

Needless to say that I wiped all caches, and even made a factory reset / install new rom before I tried the restore.

Edit: I am on stock 4.4.2 XXUFNB8 with Adams Kernel 2.1.

Edit 2: More and more **** happens. The older backup gives me an MD5 sum mismatch. I just copied it via USB onto the phone's external card. Is there something that I must consider? Can I correct a buggy MD5 sum?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gerardo87:
With the latest recovery version the date of my recovery is being crazy (says I'm on a date of 1922). I can fix it using RTC mode and then set the date and clock? Sorry for the question but I've never had similar problem with this recovery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kipue:
Sorry, cannot help you with your specific problem, but you sadly chose the one buggy version for data restore (well, bug happened in 6.30.x and 6.31.x I think). It's been fixed since then.

Sadly it happened to me too, and I just started over to install a clean rom and setup everything again :/

I don't know if you have the habit to do that, but before doing anything of the sort (I mean wipe clean to install something new, or even update a rom), I do a titanium backup of all my stuff. If you use a third party launcher like Nova, it make restoring the phone quite quick :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] svenk:
Thanks for your reply even if it did not help me much ;)

As it is, I went through a very busy evening/night trying to bring my phone back. I also used Titanium backup, thanks the light, which saved my day. So I managed to restore the system from my buggy backup, did a factory reset, and with Titanium I brought back most of my apps and settings. Took a while, however.

Well, that's not all. After I was finished, I noticed that my modem was gone, IMEI was NULL. Of course, I just learned that night that I would have better made an EFS backup to solve this issue, but I hadn't.

I tried some things, nothing helped. I simply could not flash a modem. So I gave it one last try and restored my ROM, and that did it: IMEI and modem were back. Phew!

Of course, I had to re-root, install Philz recovery (earlier version without the bug) and Adams kernel afterwards. Just an easy task after what I went through before :D

Now I very much would like to know which recovery version I can use. You say that bug has been resolved meanwhile. But why do I not find anything about the bug I had in this thread? *wonder*
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kipue:
Well, this thread goes fast!

If you make a search, with that recovery version, you'll see ^^

I know, i had the bug, héhé and discussed it here!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] svenk:
Yeah now after second reading I see some posts wrt/ data recovery problems. However, nothing that made me feel like I might brick my phone when restoring a backup :)

However, did you manage to make working (i.e. restorable) backups with the newer (which exactly?) version?

I remember having had similar issues when trying to restore an online Nandroid backup with Philz recovery. Does this work now? But I do not want to ask too much...

Many thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kipue:
I'm now on the latest possible version of the recovery, and it works well. Just yesterday I did a successfull backup/restore.

I have used online recovery backup only once and it did work, but I still feel safer by just rebooting in the recovery to do things "cleanly". Others might have more experience with it.

It happened to me once to have the kind of scare you had when a restore got interrupted at a bad moment, and I had to flash a stock base rom to get it back in working order.

Philz recovery is very good, but he updates it very often, and of course the price to pay with that cutting edge is that sometimes you run into troubles, so my advice is to pop up here before flashing latest to make sure that no one is complaining about this or that :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] svenk:
Yep, sure. Lession learned ;)

Thanks for the info!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KenHua:
Guess someone has to take the lead somehow or else this thread would be empty. I trust PhilZ has done his best and our continued feedback would help make this recovery as perfect as possible. My latest backup was fast and status looks fine with the latest version 6.41.6.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kipue:
That's for sure, as I said, I also sport the latest possible version, but not everyone wants to do so.

I guess my advice is just a generic one!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I was just about to upload photos of 5.05.3 when you posted 5.05.4

My initial findings with 5.05.4

Font size is perfect now

Row height at 56 is still a bit low for the amount real estate we have. In most menu's the bottom halve of the screen is empty. If you could increase that a bit that would be great.

I have set the scroll sensitivity at 105, That's a bit better but when scrolling the selection bar is still a bit jumpy. The selection isn't fluidly going through the options but is jumping trough the list. Sorry I don't have the option to make a video ATM.

EDIT: Like others reported earlier I also was having a stuck phone on Samsung logo after rebooting from recovery. This also seems to be solved in the latest release :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Ok, so, if touch sensitivity is just related to scroll, I will fix it by adding a more universal approach

Thank you for the feedback

Menu height will also have a more universal approach based on a font size ratio
