Come on guys is there no answer to this? This is the third post on this question.

I can't use aroma file manager 1.80. When aroma file manager opens, it hangs up. Then i tried to use aromaFM 1.90, when i try to scroll down, it does not let me scroll down on the very bottom. It keeps returning on the top, very hard to browse the folders. Sometimes it also hangs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mafiabs:
slow?

I just flashed this recovery and did a backup. The backup took 65 minutes to complete, which is very strange, since TWRP took no more than 10 minutes last week. Backup size is 4459Mb. Is this normal behaviour, or am I experiencing some bug?

Edit: edited the time for the backup, since it hadn't actually completed when I wrote the post.

Noob query. Can Philz Touch be manually updated to run the new 6.0.3.5 version of CWM or do we wait for a new version of Philz to be released?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] DroidRevenge:
wait Phil
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] svfusion:
Hopefully he will update it soon.. I really like the bigger buttons in the newer CWM.. However, I get Status 7 when flashing most CM based mods now for some reason using both of these recoveries.. but I have better luck with Philz

I've installed this recovery in my phone but I'm not able to access it through the buttons combination, only through an app or advanced restart menu.

And everytime I reboot, it asks me to disable recovery flash, it doesn't matter I say yes or no... It always asks me the same...

I don't know what to do to solve this two problems :(

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] BillGoss:
I find that this only happens if I'm running a GE 4.3 ROM. I just ignore it by pressing the back screen key.

And the way I manually get into recovery is: hold the power button for a few seconds or until the screen goes black.

Let go of the power button and hold down the vol-up button until I see the Samsung splash screen and the blue writing in the top lefthand corner.

No need to hold multiple buttons at the same time. Never need to use the Home button.

Need quick report please about these 2:

1 - does it boot?

2 - your exfat card is mounting

Later, report what ever issue
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I can confirm, it boots for me.

Got the strange problem back with the time however.

On 5.10.0 for a long time. the time was incorrect, and all of a sudden it just started working.

Now after flashing 5.10.8, my time is now 6 hours too fast (7 if DST is applied)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Try to reconfigure time zone

I am using audism kernel v13 for exfat. Maybe that's the cause!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] LuD0:
Install from the zip file philz_touch_5.10.8-i9505.zip after reinstall a stock rom. install seems ok but after a reboot in recovery i am still on the stock recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I tried that Phil. Changed between a few time zones then back to GMT, but the clock is 7 hours fast.

Had this problem on previous versions, and it seemed to go away all by itself after a week or so.

If I take a CWM backup, the date will probably be in the year 1970

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
What do you mean? Do you mean the time is right? That's the problem I got. Booting was no problem for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
Just flashed the new recovery with SGS4 flasher and for me time in recovery is still correct. With the earlier version I had the incorrect time issue that also solved itself after about a week like you reported.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
If I get an S4, I'll fix this damned time issue some are having

Probably related to the shared bin in /system, so ROM dependent

I did not change anything related to date. Only kernel changed

Since most are happy, I will slowly update other S4 variants

Also, you can test speed for exfat

And feel free to enjoy NTFS support if you like and have a ROM that support it
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cbeckstein:
yepp... can confirm that: for latest S4 stock ROM XXUBMGA with stock kernel

boot into recovery is ok, nandroids are fine, even to external 64GB exFAT SD

- time was fine with 5.10.0 (UTC+1 DST)

- after FIRST boot with new 5.10.8, time was back 10 hours and the backup I did under this FIRST recovery boot was dated 1970

- starting with the SECOND boot of 5.10.8 time is fine again and nandroids are showing the correct time and date

same behaviour that Philz showed when I upgraded from 5.xx.yy to 5.10.0

so there is a pattern here
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tanis64:
Latest Stock MGA DBT:

- Booting in Recovery works

- Time zone (UTC+1) shows +1 wrong time no matter if DLST is enabled or not. Here in Germany we have DLST now.

- Reboot System doesn't work, Screen goes black, nothing else happens (wait approx. 2min.) Seems like device is off, longpress power button - normal reaction as if you turn on the device, vibrate (as usual with the I9505) then booting normal.

Time corrects itself when OS is up.

Redo this three times always same behavior.

Regards Christopher
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cbeckstein:
Same here... S4, latest stock ROM

reboot system from within Philz 5.10.8 shuts off the device
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SunSide:

Sorry for noob question, but i miss few thousand post :) and i read few pages back for fast nandroid backup. Im with latest CWM now from today and do backup for 17:11min 5384Mb Compression 0.00%

How to do that fast nandroid :( for minute or two :(

Everything other work fine for me. Time zone didnt change with any option, and screen brightness too. Now here is 00:21h and +2h GMT recovery on every time zone show 13:30
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tanis64:
I try to flash back to 5.10.0

Time zone problem is gone, shows correct time in Recovery and direct when notification bar comes up after booting. With 5.10.8 time was +1 in Recovery and when notification bar comes up, when OS loaded completely time was corrected.

With 5.10.8 the phone feels a little slower, but that's just my impression. Any tweaks activated in that audism kernel?

Also booting from recovery works again correctly.

Strange thing is that Tassos_i has exactly the same ROM (MGA/MH2 DBT) as I have, and every thing seems to be perfect.

Regards
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I booted into recovery, and the time was still incorrect as per the initial flash.

I then choose the reboot recovery option (done this twice, one after the other) and the time fixed itself.

This seems to be consistent, as I reflashed the zip, booted into recovery and the time was wrong again. Rebooted into recovery twice and the time was correct again.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] podvox:
Hi everyone!

Situation:

I changed phone from one i9505 to another i9505, just took phone with another color of body.

Last firmware on previous SGS4 was XXUMBGA (NEE) and PhilZ Recovery 5.10.0 was also installed.

And I did backups with this firmware+recovery on that i9505 to the External SD Card (micro-SD 64Gb, extFAT), and it always were successful.

Now on newer i9505, with the same firmware+recovery, when I try to make backup in PhilZ Recovery 5.10.0 to External SD, process of creating backup always stops at the same moment. And at 1st firmware on new i9505 (XXUMBF8) it was unsuccessful also, the same error.

It got stuck at 1663 Mb in both cases.

1-st time I started backup at 03:00 a.m. and went to sleep. When I woke up at 07:30 a.m., backup process freezes at 1663Mb

So I tried to make backup today and recovery hang up again. I choose option "make Log"

In Log-file process stopped at backup-ing "DATA_Preferences"

I tried to find such a file or directory by Root-Explorer but didn't find anything...

1-st question - what is the reason of it?

2-nd question - why on new phone Recovery began to ask more space for backup copy?

Previously it took ~3.2 - 3.8Gb for full backup, it depended of programs quantity in data. On newer i9505 I have even less programs. Bat recovery ask to reserve ~6.3 Gb!!!

The same level of Compression (Low) was choose in both cases.

So because of this (6.3Gb required) i cannot make backup to internal SD, it has only 4.5Gb of free space...

Please, who has ideas, take advice what to do!

I'm no expert,

But if You are trying to restore the backup of one phone on other phone (even if it is the same model and specs), I'm almost sure it will not work.

Diferent hardware signature.

Someone with more technicall knowlege can answer you better.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] podvox:
No. I didn't try to restore backup. I wrote that I tried to create backup, but backup wasn't be created.

If it happened, for example, after changing model of phone, from SIII to S4, I might think this is the reason and don't know something new.

But I have the exactly

the same

phone as before, with

the same

firmware and

the same

bunch of installed software, but on previous phone

the same

version of PhilZ Recovery (5.10.0) and all of the previous versions of recovery made backups successfully.

Don't realize why it doesn't work in the same conditions. Nothing is changing apart from serial and IMEI of phone!

And increased requirements for size of backup (from 3.8Gb to 6.3Gb) is very unclear too...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bariz143:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I'm curious as to what is going on when taking a CWM backup.

Currently my backup is around 3Gig, and all goes through smoothly except for when /data is being backed up.

for about 30 minutes during the data backup it seems to hang.

no current backup file gets displayed

the done/remaining tally stops (for about 20 minutes) then starts creeping up very slowly

eventually the file names start being displayed again and the rest of the backup gets done nicely.

In my backup folder there are .a and .b files for system and data. (amongst others)

system.ext4.tar.a=953Mb, system.ext4.tar.b=888Mb

data.ext4.tar.a=953Mb, data.ext4.tar.b=116Mb

So data is smaller than system, but it flies though the /system backup without any hangups.

Is this happening for everyone?

Wondering if I may have some corruption in my data partition

I may try an Orange/online backup to compare.....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
My OBackup made nandroid shows:

system 1.73 GB (some bloatware removed), Data 1.08GB

http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=16685#files

1- This version is built on cm-10.1 kernel and should fix flashing cm-10.2 files

2- It uses exfat-fuse modules, so feel free to try, but it will probaly very slow on exfat cards. It is meant for cyanogen/aokp users as they do not natively need exfat

3- It is embedded with ntfs/exfat/vfat modules

4- Time setting: made small changes, hope it did not break time

5- Mount USB storage: made some changes to enable it, so please report

Be patient, or donate so that I get an i9505 and stop this guess and try game...
