aromafm

In addition to my statement above that I cannot navigate aromafm via touch I want to add that I keep on launching aromafm by mistake .. this is a pain. I am trying to live with it since most I flash is via zipinstaller .. but everytime im in Recovery to do something it really hurts.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] PLUG313:
yeah, the S4 works kinda different took me like a week to figure it out lol

turn the phone off, then press volume up + home + power

as soon as you feel the phone vibrate let go of the power button only

hope it helps, because that's what I did :P

I'm using 5.10, not hiding the progress, backing up to external SD card, using TWRP format with compression, and I'm getting erratic backup times.

Phil, are you aware that there are issues with flashing cm10.2 on the Samsung s4 gt-i9505?

Also, if someone installing cm-10.2 from my recovery provides a log, I could maybe help better

Hi PhilZ,

I was wondering why theres an issue with your Recovery and the new CM10.2 zip files?

It seems that when people install the new CM10.2 using your 5.10 Recovery that the bootanimation disappears?

As stated in this Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2383143

As well as experiencing it first hand myself.

Just thought i should let you know, if you havernt been told already...

Still love your Recovery and think its the best out, regardless of this issue :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] beaver2233:
this also occurs with the latest crdroid (4.2.2) - no boot animation and then no network. Strange.

here's a log, but not from cm 10.2. but it's the same behavior like on cm10.2 (i'm not allowed to publish link of the rom sorry)

what i did was:

backup

factory reset (install new rom )

installing the rom

installing gapps

installing a custom kernel

creating the log file

the last 2 steps are not relevant, the problem will occur even if you don't flash them.

here a link to a cm 10.2 rom:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
I really see nothing wrong there

The issue is only bootanimation?

Maybe on the S4 some functions depend on recovery kernel, not really sure though (in fact, it doesn't even make sense...)

Major difference between my CWM and stock is mine depends on a stock 4.3 leaked kernel (Audism v3) to be able to use faster Samsung exfat modules while fixing format /cache and /data bug

Can you test this older version philz_touch_5.07.5-jfltexx.zip ?

It is based on cm-10.1 kernel, like original CWM 6.0.3.3

I will wait for more feedback: does brightness toggle work or not?

This log shows it should as a custome setting is being correctly applied:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kona786:
Yes when I click to change the brightness the numbers go up but the screen brightness doesn't change.

If it's not happening to other people then I have no idea why it doesn't work on mine.

I'll just wait for your next version to see if brightness works as it really isn't a massive deal to me. I've set the background to black to help compensate.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] aHcVolle:
Hey,

no the problem is that the bootanimation isn't shown and that the baseband is shown als "unknown" -> no mobile connection (phone, sms & data)

What i did:

flashed 5.07.5

installed the rom

-> Bootanimation & baseband is working

flashed 5.10.0

installed rom

-> Bootanimation & baseband is not working anymore

flashed 5.07.5

installed rom

-> Bootanimation & baseband working again

so it's most likely the change you mentioned, i'll stay @ 5.07.5 for now.

Thanks for your help!

If you need some additional info / testing let me know.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Many thanks (out of my daily :good: limit...)

Can you test a last thing:

- Install cm-10.2 ROM with new 5.10.0 (which will give you a broken ROM)

- now, just flash older 5.07.5 recovery and reboot into ROM

Let me know if the recovery change fixes the ROM bootanimation and baseband issue (that is, you install the older recovery on broken ROM without re-flashing ROM)

Philz

i can confirm that 5.10 does infact break the CM10.2 install process (i was the one who originally posted it 1 page behind)

I installed CM10.2 zip file from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2383143

When i did this, i lost my boot animation AND my baseband (modem)

I tried countless times to fix it (didnt try 5.05 or any previous versions of your recovery) as it was starting to get to me.

So i had to install the stock CWM 6.0.3.3 from here: http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager

Which subsequently worked flawlessly when installing the CM10.2 after a long battle... (lots of trial and error over 4 hours)

The problem is, it installs the ROM perfectly fine (no errors or anything) its jsut when you get into the ROM that you notice that there is a bunch of issues with how it was installed...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
I really have no clue why.

I see nothing strange in logs or scripts

Maybe some device tree sync issues or file permissions!

I am moving to cm-10.2 tree to provide next updates. Hope it will fix your issues

Stay tuned for an update in next days
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AMDPOWERFIST:
No problem.

I also dont understand it.

Your CWM version is 6.0.3.4 which is higher than the stock 6.0.3.3, so i would assume that it should be more than adequate.

There was also another issue i found. When i installed CM10.2 with your 5.10.0 Recovery, I was still able to boot into the phone. However, upon noticing the Baseband missing, i tried to install a modem onto the phone. I used MGA and ME2 modems through ODIN (have done this many times with no issues) however, after using your Recovery to install CM10.2 i was unable to install a new modem at all.

Every single time i attempted to install a modem using the propper process, it would lock up the phone. I had to go into recovery and wipe davlik in order to reboot into the Android OS... And even then, there still was no Baseband installed. This leads me to believe (with my limited knowledge) that you may be correct in suggesting it is some kind of permissions fault?

I am not too sure. Hopefully it is fixed in the 10.2 tree your suggesting, as i really do enjoy your fantastic Recovery, have been using it since it came out on the S4. The stock CWM from CM team is boring and plain and lacks alot of features and functions yours has.

Keep up the fantastic work Philz

Without a device, I have really no big time to loose on looking at it in details.

It could be some bins in installer not compatible with kernel, an assert issue in some scripts, a broken permission, a source not in sync when I compiled...

I am pushing many updates lately on github. Have some spare time to code, so no time to release debug versions

By end of week, I should provide a new build, both cm-10.1 and cm-10.2 based

It will add many new features too. Check here for latest updates these days:

Keep reporting and giving any new details you feel could help meanwhile. I appreciate all the feedback from this thread. That's why it is being my flagship device to push new releases ;)
