I ended up getting a T-Mobile branded M919, it was running 4.3 (cyanogenmod 10.2) which ran nice other than tethering didn't seem to work. I've just put the Virgin Google Edition rom on there and after an hour or so everything seems to work great. So... 4.3 is here to a degree.

T-Mobile is rumored to release 4.3 for their M919 by end of November, IIRC. So 4.3 for Canadian M919Vs could be here any time and yet could take many weeks.

I think Google Play S4s should be getting 4.4 in the next month or so, then we surely can use that on 919s soon after. Official OTA Touch Wiz 4.4 for T-Mobile/Wind/Moblicity ? I would not hold my breath for that, could be a long, long, long wait.

Anyone know a TW 4.3 rom (TMO/i9505) that doesn't have the signal loss issue when the screen is turned off?

Also, I heard that turning on GSM prevents the issue but I don't know if our WIND GS4 supports GSM or not.

SGH-M919V Cyanogenmod support

Hello folks,

I also confirm from someone else in this thread you can use CyanogenMod 10.2 (nightly) get the jfltecan builds. The T-Mobile builds do *NOT* work will cause boot loops, surprising I know. Also backup first, I used CWM (clockworkmod custom recovery) flashed the .zip, then do a FULL device wipe of cache/data on device excluding SD card.

See here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2532570

* Be sure to NOT change the baseband, CyanogenMod doesn't touch this so you will be ok (Hybrid SGH-M919V for baseband SGH-1337M for device 'model').

I'm surprised Google Play Edition works! So I guess the SGH-M919V we have can mimic a SGH-1337M or a SGH-i9505G :D:laugh:

hello ppl,

ive been trying for the past few months, to find a way to install GRAVITON room on my device

s4 m919v (with videotron)

i did manage to install the rom, but my issue is that i dont get any signal, when i try to see network,

i get an error msg saying <<insert sim card>>

obviously sim card is in.

everything seems to be working fine except that i get no signal.

ive read that it might have to do with kernel or radio...

the things is that ive been unable to find the kernel for videotron m919v s4

same for the radio.

anybody knoes where i can find those

did anybody has the graviton working on his phone?(m919v)

i read that it is compatible with m919 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2372742

so its compatible with m919v right?

touchwiz 4.2.2 signal padding

Through some long term experience, I can finally say that CM's reception ise not any different than touchwiz's. First of all if you are on Wind their reception suck if you are around concrete walls. I noticed no bars on CM roms when around concrete walls. However, when I go to touchwiz and force WCDMA, which I think Wind uses, I see full bars. BUT is a lie. Those bars are just padding; when my friend messages me or calls me I don't receive it until i'm not away from concrete walls. CM on the other hand does not pad the bars on the status bar. Also the values for signal are the same.

I have concluded there is no difference in signal power for each ROM. Touchwiz, goodbye forever, you RAM whore. I'm moving on to that stock 4.4 kit kat experience.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 PM ----------

ugggh their reception is terrible in London around thick concrete walls; steller in Toronto.

"unlimited" data- they have the right to throttle you if you use 5gbs too quickly in a month- whatever "too quickly" means.

still, 5gb isnt bad.Waay better than the big three Robelgers.

CM 10.2 + updating baseband for M919V

So I'm now using CM 10.2 but with the 1337M ROM yet baseband is M919V. The carrier OTA update has a new baseband release.

Can I use ODIN 3.x to update the baseband piece since I don't wish to switch the baseband to 1337M.

What's the easiest way to do this? If I take the ROM from sammobile and extract the baseband part just flash this?

I updated to the 4.3 from eastlink on my m919v and I am not to impressed with the mk5 modem.....I get about half the signal I used to have with the MG1 modem...I tried to flash that one on here and it worked and I had better signal but once the phone went to sleep it lost network and i couldnt get it back easily.....will any other modems work for us on this phone? I have tried a couple and they just fail in odin

please help if u can :) thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wazedn:
Have you tried a factory reset via android recovery or a hard reset?

I don't know if it will help but it may be worth a try.

Also, flashing other kernels modems or rooting may trip the knox flag, breaking your warranty. There is no way out of this (currently) like there is for flash counter. If you don't care much about this, or installed a rooted rom that was knox free then try other kernels.

Hi, i Think i soft bricked my sgh-i717. i can start the phone but it will not pass the samsung logo. i can not get into recovery mode and when i try to get into reocvery mode it just viberates and shuts off. i can get into download mode but it wont stay in download mode and shuts off and viberates.

this all started by me wanting to change roms. ive frist started by flashing to Liquid-JB-v2.0-RC7-quincyatt using cwm. it started to lag so i decided to switch roms. i factory wiped and used darkside super wipe and then flashed to Padawan Jelly Bean ROM + Phase Kernel using cwm. it didnt work at frist. i forgot to back up my stock and liquid jelly bean rom. so i couldnt go back. :/ so, i found a stock rom ( Android 4.0.3 IML74K.UCLD3) and installed it using odin. after installing the stock rom. i used cwm recovery to make a back up of the stock rom and then flashed to the padawan jelly bean rom using cwm. the rom was messing up so i went back into recovery mode and restored the stock rom. when i go try to restart the phone that's when the problems start to occur.. i hope this enough for somebody to help me..

Is the new Blue Angel connector physically the same as the previous XDAII connector?

Are the pin outs the same?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Guest:
i would love to know as well
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] xda-rocks:
The pin outs are the same - the connector is physically the same size, but there is one minor change - there is a little 'step' on one edge of the connector.

XDAII accessories, such as chargers, usb and gps do fit but you need to be careful when you insert them.

[Nexus 7 General] EvanA:
In the wake of the arguments over lag in the Paranoid Android thread, I have decided to run benchmarks to see which ROM is (theoretically) the fastest.

Special thanks to bcvictory (author of the best Nexus 7 kernel thread) for his assistance in testing ROMs.

Testing methodology:

All tests were performed using the stock kernel with performance governor to avoid bias. Each ROM was clean flashed without a Google apps package.

Tests were performed using Android's micro_bench and AnTuTu benchmark. Exact commands for micro_bench are listed in the spreadsheet of results.

Note: Not all ROMs are publicly available. From time to time the spreadsheet may include custom builds that I have done.

Results listed below will only include ROMs that are available to download.

And now, on to the results!

DISCLAIMER:

These results are not guaranteed to be accurate. This only takes into account benchmark results. Each ROM may perform differently depending on the circumstances.

Best Overall

[ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 [OFFICIAL]

Runner Up

[ROM] rasbeanjelly [Android 4.2.2_r1.2 JDQ39E] [PRODUCT_DEVICE := grouper]

You can see all the results, including raw benchmarks, in the spreadsheet.

Don't see your favorite ROM? Ask and it might just be included ;)

List of currently tested ROMs:

Stock AOSP

AOSPA 3.56 Official

Liquidsmooth

Sabermod

CM 10.1

Vanilla Rootbox

AOSPAL 3.56

Rasbeanjelly

Buttered AOKP

AOSPA 3.56 EvanA (Not publicly available (yet!))

[Nexus 7 General] bftb0:
I would encourage you to take a single ROM (any of them - say stock), and repeat the benchmark 13 times... and record the values into a third sheet as if you were testing different ROMs.

I think you will find that the range of values you see in the individual benchmark scores are almost as large as the ranges observed from ROM to ROM.

That is - your rankings are little more than noise. Sorry.

Or, if you prefer, just repeat the tests in a second round. Most, if not all of your rankings will change.
[Nexus 7 General] gc84245:

[Nexus 7 General] why always me:
Thank you really useful information. :)

And you may want to try the Purity ROM by DarioF from original developer forum, when combined with m-kernel it gave me really high benchmark score.

As well as it still have full feature and still have an original 4.2 feeling it doesn't remove any feature to have a better performance like some others. And also in term of real-feel it fastest ROM I've ever tried.
[Nexus 7 General] Doominq:
I agree with [MENTION=5239262]why always me[/MENTION].

I would to see the Purity rom in this ranking. In my feelings purity is more smooth than CM, so it would be nice to see how purity compare with other roms in real.

Btw. Great job, very helpful ! :)

I understand that benchmarks are not foolproof and can be inaccurate. Next time I retest, I'll probably do an average of say 3 runs. The micro bench results are actually pretty consistent too.

[Nexus 7 General] brizey:
As said above you need to repeat it...a lot. Right now you have no idea what the separation in scores means. How large of a gap before it becomes perceptible?

My guess is that most of you in a blind test could not tell the difference between ROMs if the features were masked somehow.
[Nexus 7 General] DroidOnRoids:
EvanA, is it possible that somehow benchmarks can provide false numbers to each of the roms? I'm no expert behind benchmarks but I think that the way some of these roms are built and what the developer put in these roms can alter the numbers.

Example:

I used Prime D with everything stock, including kernel (Faux123 v17u) and reached over 7000 in Quadrant. Now here's where it gets really silly:

I flashed M-kernel with everything stock configuration and was only to get 4500 in quadrant.

Why is that? Is it because Benchmarks are flawed? In my opinion, I believe so.

I conclude that benchmarks are not 100% accurate but 'sometimes' they can give you a gauge on how the device performs in conjunction with the ROM and kernel.

EDIT: Just FYI, this is just my opinion :P
[Nexus 7 General] EvanA:
The reason you got drastically different results is because of the default settings in m-kernel. The only way to do a fair comparison is to have the exact same settings in faux and m-kernel. That's why in my benchmarks I used a stock kernel at default. This avoids bias in the kernel settings and should show just the performance of the rom. Now, benchmarks certainly aren't perfect, and that's why I put a disclaimer on the results. You could run a benchmark 3 times and get varying results each time. Also FYI, don't use quadrant to benchmark. It is too old to be useful on newer hardware. Antutu is a much better option.

So does this conclude that something is making pa slower than the rest? Its at the bottom of your rankings

Did you bother to read the OP? He used the same kernel in every test, clocked with Fmax = 1.3 GHz. (That actually works out to 1.2 Ghz if EDP is enabled, as Antutu has more than one runnable thread nearly 100% of the time that the benchmark(s) are running).

Of course your scores are higher @ Fmax = 1.6 GHz. Completely irrelevant information.

I've been on rooted stock since August of last year, finally went with a custom kernel a while back and bee pondering custom ROM, but wanted to keep OTA etc without resetting everything (kernel I can restore in 2 minutes). But waiting and waiting for 4.3....

I guess Buttered AOKP is as fast as they claim, I think I'll give it a try sometime.

BTW, who knew that PA fiddling with the framework for every app would slow it down!?

Ha, nevermind, I see what bftb0 was talking about now, the results are so close (or so ridiculous) that comparing them against each other overall is meaningless.
