The latest build of this ROM doesn't have a lot of updates from CM so make sure you're NOT using the LATEST kernel. You'll need to go back a few revisions so that the build and the kernel are in sync.

Just keep working your way back with versions of whatever kernel you're trying until you don't get the messed up display and I'm sure you'll find one that works.

Once again I find that this is still the most stable, fast experience out there for our device. 4.4 is absolutely bug free, everything works perfectly, and no one uses it. This rom is still the best kept secret in xda - because of the out dated OP no one realizes the awesome sauce contained within here. While everyone else toils away on CM11 kangs and the like, with new issues introduced daily, we over here have a stable kit Kat experience with some nice customization options on top. This rom is still the best experience you can get for the Verizon s4 - yet hardly no one knows about it. Thanks for all your work notta!

At the risk of sounding like I am complaining (really just want to understand what's going on)...

Are folks working on bringing back some of the functionality we all loved in the 4.3.x based PA? (like Halo, Hybrid, yada yada). I had read several months ago that the PA team was going to be starting from scratch. Any idea how that's going?

I am guessing that the rapid release of 3 revs of KitKat has gummed up the works...

Are you keeping current with CM work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
limited to 8, thanks! :)

Yes I consider CyanogenMod the pinnacle! :highfive:

Kernel is direct from CM to remain GPL compliant, trees have always been on a local share but are always synced with CM's when applicable. I merge important things and fixes as I see them to all other local repos although I'm not a very active follower.

slickrick has been doing an excellent job maintaining the necessity's and prioritys with the legacy projects. :good:

As of today my deviations from AOSPA are the following;

build

vendor/pa

frameworks/opt/telephony

packages/apps/SoundRecorder

external/chromium_org

packages/apps/Camera2

packages/providers/MediaProvider

frameworks/base

packages/apps/Settings

libnfc-nci

libnfc-nxp

Apollo

CMFileManager

DSPManager

fuse

exfat

ThemeChooser

ThemeManager

Calculator

recovery(TWRP)

yaffs2

zlib

pigz

Just a quick FYI, I never flash custom kernels with AOSP ROMs, but I tried the just released ktoonsez. Fixes the proximity sensor, and I'm not getting any of the lag that I was getting with just about every other KK ROM. Running great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wessiide:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nanodan:
Alright. I can install this ROM (the 12/21 version) with no issues, and the first boot is always quick. Setup is easy, and it runs great. HOWEVER.

I've tried clean installs 4 or 5 times, and every single time I cannot get the phone to boot a second time. Boots fine at first after flashing, I set it all up, then if I reboot it will not boot. Just sits at the "Samsung Galaxy S4" screen.

This is a huge issue, and I'm surprised no one else has reported it/I'm the only one with it...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Battery pull doesn't fix it? What recovery are you using? Are you flashing a custom kernel? I used to have to pull the battery on nearly every reboot with every AOSP ROM I used. I ODINed back to stock, re-rooted, installed TWRP 2.5.0.2 and now I rarely, if ever have to pull the battery to get it to boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
Meaning I have personally added code that is not in AOSPA's repos. These include the following features and are not in the official ROM. Also that previous list has slightly expanded at the moment.

ThemeManager, Quiet Hours, CRT Anims, Wake on plug, OldSpice sound, Device Parts, exfat, (Dark Paranoid)TRDS, Data toggle and some drawables I believe. You want those gone?

Also with the exception of adding some apps from CM including; Apollo, DSPManager, CMFileManager w/dark theme, and Calculator if I'm recalling everything correctly.

AOSPA-legacy is actually now at a state where bring up is actually smooth sailing, so anyone want to by all means please get it, build it, post it & take it official. Again I will offer my help if someone is having a hard time. :)

UPDATE Available as well!

I also have an update today but I haven't been able to really do much testing. It seems the bluetooth changes came back then went away again. So far I have not encountered any issues.

The changes include, Email from CM, Statusbar date/time actions, Lockscreen see through fixes, wifi related fixes, and Dark Paranoid which is SlimRoms TRDS.

Have a GREAT Holiday everybody! :good:

[QUOTE="Ironclad Lou, post: 48782392, member: 4306075"]Battery pull doesn't fix it? What recovery are you using? Are you flashing a custom kernel? I used to have to pull the battery on nearly every reboot with every AOSP ROM I used. I ODINed back to stock, re-rooted, installed TWRP 2.5.0.2 and now I rarely, if ever have to pull the battery to get it to boot.

Sadly, a battery pull doesn't fix it, neither does wiping data. I am also using TWRP 2.5.0.2 with no custom kernel. I guess I can try an ODIN back to stock and try from there.
Thanks for the reply.

EDIT: It might be pertinent for me to report that every time I went to wipe data after I could not boot the second time, I would get some error, lack of permission to delete some folder. I would try "Fix Permissions" and get an error that it was unable to chown a DIFFERENT folder, and thus failed. A full format of data was necessary to do anything again. I wonder if these issues might be what's causing the problem.
I am currently in the process of flashing back to stock and trying from there after an ODIN. I'll report back.

EDIT 2: The issue was fixed after the return to stock. I also installed the 12/24 nightly. I can reboot now and everything works great.

And thanks Notta for the work. It's much appreciated.

I hope you (and everyone else) has a fantastic end of the year and all that comes with it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wessiide:
Some of those things are nice to have, but I kind of admire the simplicity of aospa. If you ever feel like compiling a nearly stock build (as I certainly have no ability to do so myself) feel absolutely free to do so! Again, still very much appreciate all your good work on this rom!

Sent from my SCH-I545
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
I know it's a major headache, but there have been a handful of times when something is just really broken and I'm the only one experiencing a particular issue. Going back to stock and starting from scratch always does the trick. Glad you got it worked out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
If you're looking for something stripped down, try OctOS. It's a nice ROM in it's own right. PA was never about simplicity, it was always one of the more feature rich options out with Halo, Pie, Hybrid Settings, etc. It wasn't until they rebased after KitKat that those options had to be redone. Personally, I can't wait to get Halo and hybrid back. Extremely grateful to Notta for picking up development for an otherwise unsupported device. The cherry picks are modest and definitely add to the overall usability IMHO.

On that note, [MENTION=3128576]notta[/MENTION] I don't know if you've been following some of the CM development on the camera side of things, but they've made some nice improvements in the last few nightlies. Not sure how feasible it would be to incorporate them, but it would be a nice addition. Either way, hope you're enjoying the holidays and thanks again!

Edit: aaaannd I'm an idiot.....Camera is already there, I was flashing Banks' Photosphere add on after flashing gapps. Totally missed the new camera. Great work notta!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RedBullet:
Just for the record, the BT seem to change from build to build (probably related to recent changes). I went and tried the CM xmas build for comparison and there are issues there as well. I'll post my findings there and see if I can get attention upstream. But given the back and forth with some recent changes there is clearly something going on...

UPDATE - I just saw that the updated the new modems I flashed the other week. Not sure exactly what the problem was but I re-flashed and will play around with them to see if they resolve things with CM< than I can come back to PA
