You might want to ask that in the Stable CM11/KK thread, this thread is for CM12.1/LP5.1.1

---------- Post added at 09:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

Since the 12.1 update, I'm bouncing back to 3G more often than I did on 12. Probably something in the RIL changed as the devs work on the software. However, when connected to 3G/1X data always flows.

I have a different issue, after a reboot, my phone jumps right on LTE, but the data connection is "Unregistered." I have to force a drop to 3G the data connection to register, then i turn LTE back on and everything is great.

Also Bluetooth is becoming a serious thorn in my side. Bluetooth share is crashing all the time. Usually it starts back up, but eventually it just hangs up and I have to reboot or soft reboot. I've got my Moto 360 watch and LG HBS-750 headset connected.

I have 4 APNs set up that give me LTE and 3G on Ting, which I've compiled into an imgur album.

You should delete all of the APNs except for the Sprint LTE and EHRPD and just edit them to match. The ota APNs will disappear after you change them, but they are still necessary to get the data connection as far as I have been able to tell.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] KFloyd:
Thanks already tried that and I'm aware of the Ting APNs, the only only difference is the MMS URL (replace http://mms.sprintpcs.com with http://mms.plspictures.com) but that didn't help.

Ting was baked into CM11/12 - was it left out for 12.1?

Sweet - got everything working!:victory:

I wiped System, Dalvik and cache - installed 5/1 and and 4-28-15 Euroskank GApps - looked good but I was 'stuck' on LTE (sms wouldn't send)

Tinkered with mobile settings - ended up on:

Preferred Network: LTE

CDMA Mode: Auto: Domestic and Int'l

APN: Sprint LTE Internet

rebooted and all the sms that were queue fired off!!

Looks like I'm all good now, we'll see what daily driving it tomorrow brings.

dammit - euroskank has a 5/1 Gapps out now - shoulda waited a day:silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] KFloyd:
Grrr - dammit, lost my TWRP backups due to 12.1. I think it's a permission thing but fixing permissions didn't fix it.

Had this happen before and forgot how I fixed it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] KFloyd:
and now windows can't even write to the SD card (in or out of the phone)

Says the 'volume is dirty'. Not sure what 12.1 did but I'm not amused.

not looking forward to wiping/restoring a nearly full 64gb card:mad:

12.1-20150504-nightly

I'm on 12.1-20150504-nightly and noticed that heads up notifications don't seem to be working. This was a complete wipe of the device, including internal. In settings -> Notification Manager, Heads up is enabled. Other than that everything seems to be working fine. I can send receive text, make phone calls, take pictures, GPS works (went to stock for prl update and got lock before switching to CM). Im going to test bluetooth when I get off work and ill edit this post.

The only other thing that stood out was the light sensor seemed a little dim so I just set the brightness to full, just a personal preference and wasnt really sure how to tweak it.

Edited Part:

Battery Drain seems a little high. Probably a kernel issue. Any recommendations on other kernels?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
So my device PIN just decided to stop working this afternoon. I utilize the Bluetooth unlock with my watch, but with as flakey as Bluetooth has been, that is not very reliable. I've gotten used to inputting my PIN. I had to reboot my phone because I couldn't get an MMS to download, got the MMS and was working fine. Then out of the blue, my PIN is no longer being accepted.

I do have the auto unlock on entering correct PIN, but no matter what I do, the PIN is not correct.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Edit in:

So now my phone is just booting to recovery randomly after trying to enter my pin again. I have no clue what happened to my phone today, but it is seriously f'd up. All I can do i boot to the bootloader or it tries to boot into TWRP, but never succeeds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] weboide:
Which nightly are you running?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
Quick question... What APNs should be in the list for a non-Tri band S4? Mine keeps defaulting to the EHRPD APN and not LTE after being on WiFi.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Beezer80:
That's the correct APN.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] dilinger1111:
Just installed cm-12.1-20150506-NIGHTLY-jfltespr.zip , wiped caches and rebooted, and the first two times I booted up I kept getting a popup window with "Email has stopped" every second. After a few minutes of this happening constantly, it crashes Trebuchet.

3rd time I booted, it appears to be gone. Hopefully for good, but we'll see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Beezer80:
Update gapps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
So you are saying the LTE or the other is the correct APN. When it defaults the the EHRPD APN I seem to lose data and i will switch to LTE and it fires right back up with an LTE signal.

Thanks for clarifying.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Beezer80:
EHRPD is what it's supposed to default to and automatically switch between LTE and EVDO. Supposed to. Mine will get stuck sometimes also and I'll have to choose EHRPD for my phone to get data again whether it's LTE or EVDO.

I see this problem especially if I'm at my home where I have a Sprint Airave. I don't get data at all if I'm on the Airave so MMS won't work at all. When I leave the house my phone will be hung in limbo and requires either a reboot or manually selecting the EHRPD APN.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
I too have Airave and it really stinks.I have to use an external SMS app like Chomp or Textra and enter the APN info and force WiFi to get MMS while on Airave.

I'll leave the APNs alone and see how things progress.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
I believe I was running the 4/30 nightly. Here is the rest of the story...

So my device would only attempt to boot into TWRP recovery, however, it never fully booted, it was looping on the TWRP splash screen. Bring that I was out of options, I grabbed the stock OA3 Odin and wiped everything. My phone acted fine, Odin was successful, stock recovery booted to compete the OS load, etc. My phone started to boot, but would hang at the yellow Sprint Spark splash screen; never completing a boot cycle. I scheduled an appt at the Sprint store to see if they had any ideas. I was prepared to buy a new phone because I f'd this one up. The tech was able to do a "hard reset" via a button under the back cover that got it booting again. I'm not sure what they used, there is an R1 next to the SIM slot, but it looks like a connection point rather than a button.

I'm back on stock OA3, will wait for the bluetooth issues and network connection to get stable before I give CM12.1 another shot. I love the OS, but the Unregistered LTE on every reboot and constant BT crashes to the point I had to reboot are too much for a daily driver at this time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
I have the original S4 (non spark) and I have had zero problems with LTE or bluetooth. Crazy how some folks have a bunch of problems and others have none or only minor issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
What are your BT devices? I've got a Moto 360 watch & LG HBS750 headset

Based on having the original S4, I'm not surprised you have no connection issues. The triband devices only connect to a single network at a time, while single band devices connect to both LTE and 1X at the same time. I think Sprint authentication is done at the 1X level first so a device needs to touch that first before jumping to LTE.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] dilinger1111:
I don't use Gapps, so I'm pretty certain it's not that. ;)

Either way, it hasn't happened since my original report, so it seems to have gone away on its own.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jtsrtr13:
My phone (L720t) is having this same problem. I can't ODIN back to stock, because when I try it sticks at the yellow Sprint Spark screen.

Flash anything else, sure........but no stock ROMs.

Help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
I also have the HBS750 and I also connect to my Jambox and my Jabra Handsfree device.

Differences in the hardware could be the culprit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
Does anyone know if HD voice can be enabled in the AOSP environment? I see some build.prop hacks but none are specific to Sprint. Just curious if anyone has had any success?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
HD voice is at the network level, either your device supports the codecs or it doesn't. Stock or AOSP my N2 and S4 have both done HD voice fine.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

I guess my only thought is to Odin OA3, then reboot to stock recovery and do the factory reset again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] rjm83:
Running the 5/3 build and my notification and ringtone dont seem to work. Under settings I can hear the sound but when the messages come in, nothing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
Let me just say that if it is enabled it makes no difference. I have used it with Touchwiz and with a GPE ROM thatthat had it enabled and there was a significant change when talking to another HD voice phone.

Euroskank's GApps camera version?

So anyone else using the Euroskanks GApps notice the camera version?

With 12.1 and euroskanks 5/6 GApps, the camera version is 2.0.002.

With 12 and PA Full GApps, the camera was 2.4.025.

(I know this is an apples to pumelos GApps comparison ;))

Does 2.4 not play well with 12.1?

Edit: doesn't really matter now, 12.1 is still laggy for me. After about a hour - Chrome, my alarm clock, calculator, cache cleaner all got very laggy so I rolled back to 12.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
5/7 build gave me the "No SIM Card" error. I had to roll back to 5/6.

Also as others have stated there is an issue with lag over time. A reboot takes care of it but after a few hours everything gets choppy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
Any comments on 5/8 nightly? Is 5/6 the current clubhouse leader for stability? I hate TW, after only two full days I'm ready for inconsistent BT and data connection issues ;)

Edit in: With OD2/LP TW being posted today, I'm going to wait and get that update, before giving CM12.1 a shot again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] mikeprius:
The Gapps for CM 12 is the same for CM12.1 right ? Is the CM 12.1 supposed to be an upgrade from the original CM 12 ? I'm waiting for a snapshot or RC for CM 12. It's been out since Jan this year and it's already May.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
No, I believe they have differing GApps versions

Here is the link to the GApps downloads from the CM Wiki

Figured id post up, only way i was able to fix calling was to use a tmobile build and swapping the boot.img from the sprint one into it following this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2539794

If the maintainer can see what the differences between the tmobile one and the sprint one are, and merge those changes so we can use sprint builds while unlocked, that would be dope =P

Latest nightly does not fully boot, getting system ui has stopped repeatedly 5-13-2015
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Beezer80:
I had the same results.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Eguy:
I thought the Bluetooth problems would maybe be behind us with 5.0/5.1, I guess not! Bluetooth Share never works for me, always force closes. It works for a little bit if you force stop it and power cycle Bluetooth in the settings but it inevitably crashes again. Seems like the same problem that was on CM11 that never really got fixed. Is it something wrong with the Sprint GS4 or all GS4s?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] gmap516:
Which of the CM 12 nightlies is the most stable?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] dcillusions77:
+1 I'm wondering the same thing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] KFloyd:
with 5/15, I'm getting SIM error on boot but then I get a signal and all seems well :confused:. Still getting 'stuck' on LTE and SMS won't send for some reason which has been an issue for me with every 12.l nightly I tried. I'll tinker with 5/15 for the night but if I cant SMS, I'm rolling back to 4/25 (the most stable nightly for me)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] xfullmetal17:
About to clean-flash 5/15, I'll post how well/bad it goes... Hopefully nothing important is broken.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] swiggs98:
5/15 is working best for me so far. It took two reboots after updating to clear the no sim error but after that it's been great. No problems with SMS here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] KFloyd:
5/15 was ok overnight- got SMS working (needed a different tower / better signal?)

But with a few apps open,

the

lag

it

killsss

back to 4/25 :/

(edit: I have been dirty flashing FWIW, used Euroskank 5-14 GApps )
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] rjm83:
I am running 5/06. Dirty flashed from 5/03(I think). After force stopping Bluetooth share, this has been very stable. No BT drops in the last few days.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] swiggs98:
Can anyone speak to whether or not the spark version of the Sprint S4 (SPH-L720T) works nominally on CM12.1?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
Yes, all LTE bands work fine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] dilinger1111:
Just installed the 5/17 nightly, and I got the same "Unfortunately, Email has stopped" errors that I saw with an earlier build. Over and over, and then finally a black screen. Rebooting gets me back to the CM welcome screen, with the same error message. It disappeared after hitting "ok" a few times, and now "System UI isn't responding" and incredible lag. Basically, this image is unusable. Also, my phone is sitting at a black screen right now and getting _really_ hot.

This was after a complete wipe, installing a rooted stock firmware (NAE), doing an MVNO activation, backup, installation of the CM nightly, wipe cache/davlik, and boot. No gapps involved.

EDIT: did a full factory reset, the errors went away. However, it's still running pretty hot, and unable to make a data connection, so I downgraded to cm-11. The nightly links from April are no longer valid, so that's not an option.

What's the best TW LP? Still running sacs 4.4.2. Everything works. Unlike cm 12.1. Was using AntaresOne CM 12.1, intermittent MMS issues. Now trying this 12.1 5/06 build.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] clshores:
Look in the general section. There are I think now 3 working options. One is the update.zip from the OTA and the other two are pre rooted versions. I haven't experienced any major issues with the 5.0.1 TW version.

Ditto - get a GPS lock using your known good rom (CM11, Stock) then load CM12/12.1. CM12/12.1 can't seem to get the initial 'find/lock' to work.

but 5/18 - no data, including while I was downtown neck deep in signal. Did a clean install and nada - and the TING apns aren't configured correctly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] rjm83:

Today's build bricked my phone, I think I'm going to try to Odin back to MF9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
I think this is a Sprint network thing as I recently started experiencing this issue on Stock OD2 (720T). My first thought was that it was related to the Spring weather changing and tree foliage causing some havoc with the RF, however, I've experienced it with clear LOS to cell sites.

I loaded up the 6/1 nightly and so far my experience has been very similar to my last go around with CM12.1...

Battery is not as good as stock, but i can deal

Reboots with LTE as the default network connection do not register the device on the Sprint Network properly. I either need to place/receive a phone call or force a 3G connection, then enable LTE for LTE data to work.

Bluetooth is still flaky as hell. I have noticed that it is worse when using mutliple BT devices (Watch & Headset). I'm not always getting the message that Bluetooth Share has stopped, the BT icon just disappears and a reboot is needed to get it going again.

Keyboard doesn't "swype" - I seem to remember that the keyboard in my previous instance of CM12/CM12.1 had swyping capabilities. I'd like to avoid an extra install, but will grab swype if needed.

Edit in: installed Google keyboard

I wiped everything then I ODIN flashed stock and then used the update.zip to give me a clean update. I'm still running TW at the moment with pretty good results. No Hot Spot as I am odexed and the patch is for deodexed but I might change to deodexed later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] blue6800user:
Hey thanks for responding. Your running just the OD2 modem from that msg or are you running the recovery and kernel as well? What nightly are you running and are you getting LTE?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
I'm running the 6/1 nightly and LTE is fine, as long as I make/receive a call after a reboot or connect to 3G first to register.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] todivefor:
Sorry it took so long to get back. Had to boot the rom (use dualboot to boot multiple roms) to check LTE. Works fine (6/1). Don't use cm jfltespr much. I use AntaresOne optimized 12.1 as my daily. Use TWRP recovery and stock kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] lipps:
I've attached a logcat of Bluetooth crashing with no error. Hopefully this is the right place.

I'm running the newest OD2 modem and the 06/09 nightly of CM12.1.

Sequence of events:

Connect Urchin R4A Bluetooth speaker.

Start Podcast Addict and attempt to play a podcast.

Bluetooth Icon disappears from status bar.

Go into settings, and see that Bluetooth is turned off.

Attempt to turn it back on, but it will not.

Will this logcat help? Is there any other testing I can do to help out with this Bluetooth problem?

Edit: Not sure if this helps, but I've also uploaded a logcat of the following actions after the crash:

Go into Settings>Apps and Force Stop Bluetooth Share

Go to Settings and re-enable Bluetooth successfully.

Edit: I was able to capture a logcat of a Bluetooth crash with the "Bluetooth share has stopped" message and attached it. This time it was with BlueAnt Pump headphones on the 6/15 nightly.

Is this the right place to upload these logs? Should I post them elsewhere? Or am I just wasting my time, and would be better of pounding sand?

Any idea with the note regarding Bluetooth sleep is? Going to let this flesh out for a few days before updating...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] Eguy:
It's basically a wakelock and prevents the phone going to sleep. So, bluetooth will kill the battery whether it is on or off. But at least it works now! I am sure it'll be fixed eventually....and then broken again....and then fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] jefbal99:
