Here's a build with iamsachin's capacitive keys fix. Pressing the menu and back buttons when your phones screen is off should no longer wake up the phone. Besides that there is no difference between this build and yesterdays.
[Galaxy S 4 General] vamsi_krishna:
All the best Sachin.
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Phase one: Tried to clean up init rc ... No boot :P

Now trying the audio fixes with intervigil init rc
[Galaxy S 4 General] CQ7:
First of all, great work. CM is snappier and faster than TW, camera open quickly and honestly I don't miss any of the samsung's feautere.

I'm using iamsachin build, aside from the bug listed for me SMS doesn't work. I think service number is missing, i can't set it up through SMS settings so I've used *#*#3646#*#* tu fill SMSC field but i lost it at every reboot.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Faye Reagan:
Taking a photo with landscape mode, and then back to portait, causing my device reboot LOL
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Unable to reproduce the issue
[Galaxy S 4 General] Faye Reagan:
Graphic issue i guess.

I wanna ask you about symlink between /mnt/shell/emulated/0 and /storage/emulated/legacy

Did that symlink work properly in your device?

On my devices after minutes gone, /storage/emulated/legacy became empty

At previous build, maybe at middle week of september, only "legacy" folder inside /storage/emulated

But now it has "0" , "legacy" , and "obb" inside /storage/emulated
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
There are definitely some issues with symlinks there.. check init rc
[Galaxy S 4 General] Faye Reagan:
Hmm, i only check at init.universal5410.rc , okay i'll take a look
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
well i dualbooted the rom.. My initial reaction.. Such an amazing thing man... so fast. camera opened so fast. no laggy animations.

after exactly 4 minutes after setting up.. with no apps installed it is overheating in idle in screen off and i didnt charge it anyway.

it felt so hot that i wanted to drop it. obviously instead of that i installer rom switcher apk and booted back in touchwiz.. it started cooling down.:(:confused: does everyone get overheating problem here?

---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------

Okay figured it out. heating was due to first boot. once i booted back in it it didnt overheat even in charging. however the smearing issue is making me crazy:crying::crying:

Also just to tell you guys.. been 1 and half hour on it not a single reboot after first few reboots on first booting into the rom
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gh0stWhisp3r3r:
Having an Issue where when I have a reboot and Im listening to Google Play

afterwards GP says it cant play my selected track once i try to initiate play again.

Additionally, I have noticed as well that upon reboot my Bluetooth service completely

stopped working , button disabled, and I cant turn it on. :crying:
[Galaxy S 4 General] rebel1735:
The track playing issue has been there forever!

Guess it was never reported and I thought I was the only once facing the issue
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Maybe smearing issue will be fixed using note 3 sources (if note 3 doesnt have thus bug and have same screen, just bigger...)
[Galaxy S 4 General] AndreiLux:
The chances of that happening are almost zero.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Oh :eek: Who knows .... maybe 1% chance xD we can still hope...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
Well are you going to make your kernel compatible with cm once cm is stable?

And there is a hardware level fix by bala_gamer(atleast thats what he said in his thread). Can u include that in your kernel? (Obviously once CM is stable enough)
[Galaxy S 4 General] bala_gamer:
The fix is exposed by Andreilux, its already there in his kernel ,i just made it as a zip. you can tweak it either via stweaks or synapse on perseus kernel
[Galaxy S 4 General] Marcus Badach:
Please Help :)

Hi there, I see you are a recognized developer... for the first time I flashed a ROM CM10.2 (not the halo) and am now needing to change to a more up to date ROM (less issues) I am very new at this so would rather use a ROM that is more stable etc... until the CM 10.2 for the i9500 is official with OTA.

Could you please recommend a stable daily usable ROM that is as close to Pure Stock Android? (preferably being actively developed with KitKat coming?)

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 General] tabenf:
Hi friend at this point in time there is no pure android rom that is stable for i9500 if you look in android development section for i9500 there are lots of stock samsung rom with extra tweaks and more you could use,and also you could use ucrt to remove bloatware for i9500 then install nova launcher or damnation theme (gives a nice stock android look)
[Galaxy S 4 General] josemq2000:
I don't think there's a pure android ROM yet, only AOSP's with TW, that's the reason I am here testing alphas and waiting for a CM release :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Beny The Kid:
I recommend you read to answer your own questions.

All AOSP ROMS will have basically the same bugs. You'll need to go find a Touchwiz ROM.

And a forum full of experienced members is not an excuse to not read and find your own answers. And this thread is not the place to ask for another less buggy ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
Take the nightly on post #2433 by runedrune. It is most up to date cm as of now. And keep checking this thread for an updare by runedrune.

If you want something everything-working-stable then stay with tw
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
No full working roms build from sources (like cm, aosp...) available. U need to wait CM progresses for fixes. If u want now a stable and full working rom install any touchwiz rom with domination theme and crap remover. Nothing else.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Marcus Badach:
Friendly guy?

Hi Beny, thanks for the answer... sort of? I have been reading for about 3 days now, spent about 20 odd hours trying to understand all of this including how forums work, where to ask what as well as apologizing on most posts in case I should or should not say or ask things in the wrong places...

In time I will understand all and know where to post what...

I have found this forum great and everyone very helpful, the last thing I was trying to do was abuse a forum full of experienced members.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Arjav23:
Why aren't we getting official nightlies now?

[Galaxy S 4 General] josemq2000:
they must be at school, we should wait until weekend, they may need more time :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Not all the features are functional yet. That is one main criteria for official nightlies.

Intervigil just updated the proprietary vendor code :)

Guys I have one question, why does my 16gb i9500 still has 8.9 GB of storage? If I just installed a ROM.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 General] beesnipe:
Installing a new ROM does not give you any more space. The phone is still allocated the same amount of space no matter what ROM you install. I remember seeing a thread somewhere that involved flashing a new PIT to give you an extra 2GB or so of space. If someone could provide a link that would be great

---------- Post added at 09:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 AM ----------

Just had a quick look at [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION] on github and it looks like he's started work on the Oppo N1

Looks like we'll be seeing less work on our I9500 :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] matheus_sc:
but camera fix already, random reboots i think someone in xda can fix.
[Galaxy S 4 General] pwnyu:
How's the loudspeaker/mic volume on this build? I had issues with my note 2 previously where in call volume was extremely low. Is that issue apparent here?
[Galaxy S 4 General] josemq2000:
Yes, there's a volume issue with mic :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] vamsi_krishna:
Guys, guys, I have a small question. Many people say that the reason why we are not having a proper CM is because samsung did not release source for exynos. But how come S2 and S3 have all these great CM builds? They are of Exynos origin too. What is making the difference? Time?
[Galaxy S 4 General] NoobieUser:
Yes time is , since the S2 and S3 are a few years old , the developers have already cracked the codes. While on the S4 the developers are still working on it. It takes time to make it perfect. :)

Thank me if i helped,thanks! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
We have the sources for exynos5. It's just that it will take some time as there is just one developer working on it. On S2 and S3, codeworkx and xplodwild were working together. On S4 only intervigil is working, who is also working on HTC devices.

It's totally a work in progress.
[Galaxy S 4 General] runedrune:
Oppo N1 is now a company product for them. So I doubt Intervigil will be the only one working on it. And since they are basically working together with Oppo to make it, they'll have all the sources the need so it won't take them long to make it stable.
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
I fixed in call audio noise and microphone input... Uploading
[Galaxy S 4 General] modyt:
You the man!
[Galaxy S 4 General] lch920619x:
Great job. Thanks.

Once reboots are identified and fixed, i will jump over, once and for all.
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Doing further changes. Sometimes audio is not working after boot till you make a system sound (like how it was on S2 and S3)
[Galaxy S 4 General] samer menla:
So now low call volume fixed?
[Galaxy S 4 General] rebel1735:
[MENTION=1443062]iamsachin[/MENTION] ..... nice job! :)

finally a good daily driver
[Galaxy S 4 General] venorme:

[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Of course. But it's not working as expected. I am testing it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] samer menla:
Low call volume fixed or no?

Plz answer
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
Not yet.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ChampMEon:
Dude I've just read the previous posts. And from what I understand It's fixed, but with it some bugs appear. Like you have to play a system sound before it takes effect after every reboot.

So its not perfect yet. But [MENTION=1443062]iamsachin[/MENTION] is working on it.

Why do you think no one is replying to you? Coz its effort explaining like this.

Stop asking questions and read the thread!

[Galaxy S 4 General] Rahulrulez:
Couple of things keeping me away from development are "Time" and "Bandwidth" :(

I will be shifting to a new location this week. I will be getting much better internet over there (12-20Mbps).. I hope I will find some time from my super busy work schedule and do some stuff over here.. In the mean time, MIUI port (WIP). Not as easy as I thought. Struggling with the junk Samsung has bundled with the phone.

To be honest, Samsung does not know sh*t about software optimization and quality of structure. :( I hope some genius from CM will switch to Samsung and do some magic there..

I haven't tested CM yet. Will probably test it today. The only thing that I am concerned about is call quality right now.. If that is fixed, CM will be the daily driver for me!

Btw, good work [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION], [MENTION=1443062]iamsachin[/MENTION], [MENTION=3150645]runedrune[/MENTION] and others who have worked hard on this.. Great stuff! I hope Odroid-XU will be the show stopper :D

^ I have some big big plans ahead.. :) Everything for goodness of Android. I am eagerly waiting 4.4.. I will probably start work on 4.4 since it is believed to be the deal breaker OS (Lots of stuff would be super optimized)..
[Galaxy S 4 General] NoobieUser:
woohoo cant wait dude! :):thumbup:

Thank me if i helped,thanks! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
I am guessing it will be super backward compatible. It should allow virtually any old android phone to be able to update. At least that's what I figure out from the advertisement taglines.

and 12-20Mbps...shifting to hyderabad? :P
[Galaxy S 4 General] runedrune:
What advertisement taglines?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Rahulrulez:
Nope, Pune.. :) You Broadband. I wish my company was in Hyderabad. You guys are lucky.. Beam Fiber is amazing..

Anyway. I believe 4.4 will be the full stop for all those WP, iOS fanbois who think Android needs more resource and memory. They are planning to make it slim. I wish this is true. Let the old device enjoy this bliss.. If Samsung update line up is true then nothing like that.. 16 more days. I am tooo excited. :D

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 PM ----------

On Android website..

I am having a gut feeling KitKat will be amazing..
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
www.kitkat.com :P

"The Range

There's a KITKAT for that.

No matter what kind of break you're looking for, with 2 mega-bites, 4 mega-bites or a chunky-bite option, we've got it covered."

This will be a perfect move for Android. Making it efficient enough for older devices as well.

Donno about WP fanboys, but most of the iOS fanboys I talk to are complete idiots. I have seen comments as bad as "Galaxy has just reached 4th version, iPhone is better coz it reached 5th version"

The other day i was reading a tweet: "Just upgraded to iOS7, how do I turn on the fingerprint stuff"
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
Exactly.. and some of those fanboys say iphone is better because its more costly and easily available.

erkk..

Anyways what do you mean by the mic volume not sustaining?
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
System sounds, outputs, everything is working fine...

The sound input is working fine till the phone sleeps, but then when you wake it up again its gone..
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
Ohh thats weird. Because before it used to wake up as it should..

And what about those graphical glitch u talked about?

U got what was wrong with it?
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
The random reboots are being caused by mis-alignment on graphic buffer. And it's being caused on both Samsung hwcomposer and the exynos hwcomposer we are using now. So the problem is your user space side. framework/native is the first place to look at for the problem on the graphic stack.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Degrated Shadow:
By user space do u mean the scheduler?

I'm no dev so most of it was a bouncer for me..
[Galaxy S 4 General] varund7726:
We need really experienced Devs to play around with the odroid xu sources.....and the framework of course which causes the reboots....:(
[Galaxy S 4 General] omvir:
Patience, man.
[Galaxy S 4 General] venorme:
How long do you think Oppo development will take?

Looks like i9500 will be left aside till Oppo is done
[Galaxy S 4 General] runedrune:
Not long. They have sources and manpower.
[Galaxy S 4 General] venorme:
I see first minuses of commertialisation here.They will do mods for their new partners first. I am sure it would be top priority for any other phone that isn`t even selling yet.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Rahulrulez:
This was obvious.. N1 is the first device with Official support for CM. They wanna make sure they have solid CM working right from the first day of it's release :) But don't worry.. There are many people for maintaining N1 (Oppo + CM developers)..

I hope [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION] will continue the port progress

[Galaxy S 4 General] dum2go:

When a reboot happens probably u wouldnt notice but wifi and battery that is status bar size changes very slightly. They go up out of screen partially and partially inside while rest of the screen is same.

This might help u get the framework thing working.

Also not that it matters this reboot is first after 9 hrs
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
status bar stuff is from framework/base/packages/../PhoneStatusBar.java and BaseStatusBar ... Again it's pretty much higher in the OS layers compared to the graphic stacks at lower level. I'll try to look into it :) :)

[Galaxy S 4 General] runedrune:
I got over 6 hours of screen on time with my usual usage. Which is pretty high usage. :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] iamsachin:
That's good battery life :)

I usually consider battery life is more of a factor of background processes as well. My friends have FB, Twitter, Feedly and what not in the background, automatically syncing every few hours. That's definitely battery depleting.

Also people still use task killers and memory boosters, which are the culprits. Android manages memory really well.

One big misconception: If RAM is being used a lot, the battery will die faster. Battery drains only if the stuff in memory uses processor.
