Everything works fine on my side. The rom is so smooth. The only problem is i get a little bit bad battery life. Still, the rom is pretty smooth. Thanks fpr your hard work. Using the 9/1 build with kt kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xsycox:
I love the PAC ROM. I loved it on my S2, already. :)

Which kernel is the best for the S4 in your oppinion, guys?

Especially combined with PAC maybe?

I am using Chronic 2.1 right now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ZeizenKii:
Latest KT kernel. Aosp 4.3 dated 8/28 download 8/25 build from his thread then update through the ktweaker app to have the 8/28 build. :thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ubelai:
Definitely this.

I'm using the ROW Balanced Bull setup which consists of Ktoonservativeq governor and ROW scheduler, a few people have clocked just under 7 hours of on screen time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] NZgeek:
It depends. Do you use any of the features that only come with custom kernels, such as undervolting or using screen-off performance settings? Or do you just flash a kernel and let it do it's thing?

If you're just flashing a kernel and leaving it, stick with stock. There's nothing magical about custom kernels that makes them markedly better than the one that comes with the ROM. If there was something that actually did give significant battery/performance improvements, and was reliable enough to work on everyone's phones, it would quickly be added to the default kernel.

Using custom kernels can cause other problems too. The default kernel gets fairly regular modifications and bug fixes, and because it's built with the ROM it's always up to date. Custom kernels get built far less frequently, and it may be days or weeks before the updates are merged. There's a good reason why some CM/AOSP/AOKP ROM developers refuse to investigate problems unless you're using the default kernel.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xsycox:
I have another issue going on my nerves regarding the hardware menu button.

In PAC I set it to voice-search, when long-pressing. But when pressing long, it opens the context alternatives menu for apps showing me "qr droid" and "secure settings", both I had installed on previous PAC installations and the menu button was still working.

So, now it gets overridden in some way, but I do not know how to change that. I really would love to get my voice-search back on long-pressing menu button without using any further apps or stuff. I mean the PAC settings should be dominating any other apps.

At least, it did so on my S2 with version 4.2.1 of Android.

Yes, of course, like written here: "In PAC I set it to voice-search ..."

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xsycox:
****, I just found the solution: I do not have installed the voice search feature/apk.

When I used Gapps, I took the small Gapps core package, which is only 20 MB and has the essential stuff like store, ... etc. only.

Obviously, the voice search is missing there. Can anyone tell me, where to get that apk and the installation manual?

--------

Nevermind, I found it. It is called Google Search in the app store. :)

That is working now correctly.

But I found another bug/thing. Maybe I am missing another thing from the Gapps?

When I press the contacts button, it opens the contacts correctly. But when going into SMS/Texting, opening a new text and then pressing on the small contacts icon above on the right, it says "cannot find contacts application". Wtf?!

Does somebody know, what might be missing or what is wrong there?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] soyusado:
Just download the recommended Gapps and flash the zip via recovery or extract the app from the zip file and install it with you file explorer.

[MENTION=262147]vertigo[/MENTION]: I already asked this question several times and I don't want to be rude or so, but is there a plan for making OTA PAC-man updates work in the near future? Or is this a bigger problem that needs more time?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MadCobbler:
The OTA feature is taking a little longer to get sorted, the download feature works but I have to manually put the download link in at the minute and as far as I'm aware, they've left it like that while they've sorted everything else out (flashing the zip etc)... It will be fully functional eventually, just with so many devices and not all of them on the nightlies its hard to coordinate everything and everyone lol

My builds will always be available to download through the OTA feature though...

On another subject.... how is the last nightly? because for some reason when I synced last night, they'd fixed the phone call issue, but I had issues with trebuchet not working at all, which is a complete pain :D Anyway I've just done another build today which I'm about to try now and if its ok I will upload so it will be on OTA

I had installed latest version and WiFi wasn't working and I keep deleting the file to fix everything is great but was wondering which CWM or recovery is best to use I have tried CWM and TWRP but recently flashed Phil's CWM which seems decent but was wanting to know which is best as CWM and TWRP had issues mounting system some reason and I have heard there isn't a stable version yet also is there any decent kernels out to use a part from the stock ones (sorry about all this )
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] live-evil:
Phils is the best because its the most updated. All recoveries have mounting system issues though. All you can do when you have a system can't mount issue is reboot into recovery format /system and try flashing again. There is a fix for this but the rom makers have to remove the format system command in the update script. Until a better fix is made we have to put up with it.

as victorator said "No error 7 because the format system command is removed for now until we figure out what breaks it in the updater binary, shouldn't be too long."

Hi Guys,

Need some of your help, ive just got a S4 i9505 coming from nexus 4 which i was using this rom on.

I have rooted it with cf-autoroot and wiped system, cache, data. Flashed rom.

But after the samsung splash screen screen goes blank and just red light?

i can go into recovery, so i wiped cache and rebooted and it didnt go normal splash screen loading, it did the "optimizing apps" screen. Once that finishes its ok.

But if i reboot does same thing unless i clear cache?

with samsungs do i need to do anything special coming from stock 4.2.2 rom to this custom rom on 4.3?

Do i need to flash modem etc? as on my nexus 4 i had to do radio, bootloader etc..

Sorry for a lot of questions im new to samsungs.

thank you!

EDIT:

right i left it on the blank screen for about 5 mins and it booted up?

So do you reckon its loading in the background and just not showing the boot animation?

although 5 mins is a bit long??

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xsycox:
I am using the build from three days ago (no nightly), that Vertigo posted.

I can send SMS and also I can find contacts, when pressing into the field and writing the name, BUT pressing on the small contacts icon shows me/us the message, as stated above ("no contacts applicaton installed").

I mean, it could be, that we three guys are all using the same build version and that is why it is happening. We have to find out, if there are other users with nightlies, that have (not) the same issue.

Btw, there is another question:

Is it possible to customize the shortcuts in the notification drawer? I have put there six apps and the icons are all grey-white, which is fine/nice, but the size of the icons are a bit varying and I would like them to have the same look. Actually, it is one or two that break out.

I would love to give them the same icon view, as I could on my launcher for example.
