Can anyone speak for how this compares to CM10.1 on the S3? I am currently running this and am mostly happy but suffer from reception issues in low signal areas which is common with all AOSP ROM's on the S3. I've read that the S4's radios are superior and the Google Edition RIL blobs recently introduced further improved this. Can anyway say if this is true? I am debating if it's worth switching.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] manofcolombia:
As of a this mornings update I've been getting an extra 2 bars on LTE in my house in spots where I have normally seen only 1 bar

It is most definitely true. Reception is fantastic as of July 1st nightly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] landale:
That's great news. Hopefully others are seeing the same sort of thing. I love my S3 but it drives me crazy to be places and lose 4G when friends with other phones have no such problems. Thank god for Google Edition phones!

I'm running Verizon Galaxy S4 CM 10.1 Nightly 08/04.

When I go into Settings -> Accounts -> Google I get a "Sync error" and at the bottom of the screen it says "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." It says this error all the time.

As far as I can tell, everything is syncing just fine (Gmail, Google Calendar, Contacts, etc..). I've looked through the the forums and haven't been able to find anything about this. I may have accidentally disabled or uninstalled something without realizing it, but haven't been able to figure it out. Does anyone know if there is actually problem or it's just a false positive?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the.snks:
I get this too. Unticking bookmarks in the sync options fixed it for me (I don't use Chrome). No more errors.

Still have yet to figure out my voice plus issue... I have no app installed for it yet battery stats says it's sucking battery haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the.snks:
I'm speculating, but I figure they are either getting closer to a final 10.1 build, or are prepping for 10.2. Seems like development for 10.1 has slowed way down since 4.3 was released.

I believe you are correct, that was my guess as well.

I suppose I'll eventually have to figure out why 4.3 won't run on my phone. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCM45:
I just installed 10.2. So far everything is good. Quick question though, in the camera app how can I get photos to save to SD? Also when I reboot my folders get fee removed and the icons are all over my home screen. Just flashed the first official nightly build. Clean flash too. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
FWIW, here's my experience.

I did a clean flash, had more problems than I can post. After trying several different ideas here's what worked for me:

A. Dirty flash. ONLY a dirty flash got CM10.2 running for me! I restored my nandroid of 10.1 8-13 nightly, flashed the 8-14 nightly (the first of the 10.2 builds) on top of it, didn't even wipe Dalvik or cache, just rebooted and found that I had problems with PlayStore and other apps, started flashing different Google Apps and found the one from the OP here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2305263

It wasn't as easy as it sounds, I downloaded it from several different sources before I finally got it to work.

Everything is fine now except for Google Maps. It works perfectly, the GPS locks as it should but I can't update. Every time I reboot I get an error and a manual update gives me (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0])

I've googled a bunch of "fixes" for that, none of which seem to work. <sigh>

NOTE: If I delete Google Maps I can't re-install it, I get the same error trying to download it.....

And we're FIXED!

http://appslova.com/android-fix-rpc...pdating-or-installing-apps-google-play-store/

Method 2 worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hawksfire:
Alright, did a clean flash last night to the first 10.2 build, 8/14 nightly.

First, my battery life went from about 40 hours on 8/13 - 10.1 to about 9 hours on 10.2.

Has anyone else had this problem? 9 hours, with the screen barely on I might add, is unacceptable. I really want to run 10.2, but I can't continue unless there is a fix for this.

Second, and I don't really care about this, but wanted to throw it out there, is my front facing camera on Focal is upside down. The front facing camera in the Camera app is totally fine.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCM45:
Yeah I've been seeing similar results. Just flashed 8/16 this morning. We'll see if battery life is any better on this build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCM45:
So after using the 8/16 Nightly for a full work day I can definitely see a decrease in battery life. I flashed back to 8/15 and have had considerably better results. 8/15 seems to be the best build so far.

So you guys think maybe flashing a new Kernel would help the batter drain problem? I'm using stock kernel and I'm not sure what the benefit would be of flashing a custom one. Any tips?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] manofcolombia:
Eh I flashed ktooz and it got worse haha

I switched to eclipse and ktooz and it's been crazy good but random reboots that I've been troubleshooting since last night eventually kinda figured it's rom caused so I'll be switching to slim and Kootz.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCM45:
The only thing that has been bugging me is the inconsistency with battery drain from one nightly to another. The 8/26 build had good usage but the 8/29 build is terrible. Flashed back to 8/26 to be safe. I'm also using stock kernel. Here's my 8/26 battery usage:

Microphone issue

Hey guys,

Quick question. So when I do hangouts my sound level is low and when I record a video my sound level is low. I know this is related to cm not using all of the mics and I've done a little research and not found a fix.

Is this fixable by me?

And

Is it an issue that could possibly be addressed in future development or is this something that can not be coded around.

Thank you!

OTA Blocker?

Was checking out the latest change log for invisiblek's builds and noticed they added otablock to the next nightly... so stupid question why is that needed? I am running the 8/28 nightly and have been running previous nightlies for about a week and have not received an OTA notification. I thought once you were rooted with a custom ROM it wasn't possible to receive OTA updates from the manufacturer?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SonicJoe:
From what I've seen, its an AOSP issue that's been around for a long time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AzureShadow:
Has anyone found a way to enable the transparent notification/status bar on CM yet?

I don't think you can do it natively in CM. I think you need a launcher line Nova or APEX.

Lock Screen Security

Lock screen security isn't working for me. I am only able to select None or Slide. When I enter any of the others it goes through the steps, but doesn't apply it. When I go back to the options screen it remains on Slide or None. I had this problem before and it seems like there was an option somewhere that needed to be turned on to allow me to use a security lock. Anyone know how to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AzureShadow:
I actually do use Nova, but the transparent notification bar option only seems to show up while I am running a TW rom.

Low Volume in CM10.2

I'm having the same issue in the nightlies of CM10.2 - very low volume compared to stock. I wasn't able to find a setting in sound related to "gain in call". Is it here on 10.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCM45:
Its there the only problem is for whatever reason they took the advanced options menu out of 10.2. The only way I've seen you can access it is by installing another launcher like Nova or APEX and create a shortcut to the Advanced Menu. Kinda annoying I know. But its the only way I've gotten to that option.

I seem to be having some problems with my SD card, and I can't figure out if the problem is with the card itself or CM. Files, mainly music files, that I have stored on the card keep becoming randomly "invisible" to Apollo and other music players. I can see them in the file manager, I can even play them if I open them from the file manager, but when I open Apollo or Winamp or whatever it's like they're not there at all. I've had one instance where it was like the entire contents of the SD card disappeared, and I had to unmount and remount to make anything visible at all.

Edit: Hm. The "invisible" files are also not present when I connect the phone to my computer and look at the file system through Explorer...but they are there if I take out the SD card and plug it in directly. So it looks more like a CM problem, I guess. (Hopefully it's not the hardware...)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tangoboyz:

No need to upgrade. Just do a factory reset, then flash CM. If you like Google apps flash the proper gapps package afterwards, reboot, and enjoy.

ODINing a modem

can someone give a step-by-step on how to update the modem via ODIN? i've done it before, but i ran into an error trying to upgrade to the MJ7 (i'm running MDK now).

the file i have downloaded is this: http://invisiblek.org/sch-i545/firmware/jfltevzw_MJ7_fw.tar.md5

i put the phone into download mode, opened ODIN 3.07, unchecked f. reset so that only auto reboot was checked, and loaded the tar into the PDA slot.... connected the phone, waited for the COM to be blue, and then hit start. things seemed to be progressing normally, but then i received a FAIL message.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
If you can learn to like it, the problem is solved, stick with it. If you don't like it then try other launchers, see if there's one that works and that you like and use that one.

If you only like Trebuchet then go back to it and see if someone here can troubleshoot the problem for you. I'm not familiar enough with it to help much because I use Nova launcher myself.

Is there any way to flash CM to a Verizon Galaxy S4 with VRUEMJ7 build? I have root access, but I cannot get anything to download in GooManager once the 10 seconds passes nothing downloads.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I'm sorry, but you are unable to flash CM to your device. The only build you can flash a custom recovery to is MDK. All other builds limit you to the available ROMs that can be flashed via safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Flashing things using GooManager when you have MJ7 phone won't work. The bootloader will refuse to boot anything that's not official Samsung software. Playing with GooManager is likely to set the "Knox Warranty Void" flag on your phone, which in some cases is being used by Samsung to refuse to fix broken phones.

Read first, flash later.

Yea pretty confident that devs can reverse engineer some Google Edition tweaks they've done and apply them to the S3.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Marine6680:
GPS issues seem to be a common complaint for just about every ROM... even some TW ones... With solutions usually involving flashing a TW ROM with working GPS and letting it lock and then flashing the ROM you want.

I mean... its possible some file somewhere gets written and carries over to the new ROM to allow it to work, but to me it doesn't seem that likely.

So it makes me wonder what exactly the fix was for GPS. Was it ever explained what the problem was, and the fix?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] manofcolombia:
I don't think they really took the time to explain what was wrong with it but they did fix it. At least for the majority of the people. No one is ranting here on the forums about it not locking so it Deff is fixed. And I've been getting solid lock for about a week now since the 26th I think. Many others as well.

I think they were still trying to iron stuff out with the camera and pretty sure Google ask cm to leave out photosphere cuz that's just like gapps but itll be Very interesting to see the stable builds of both side by side. I'm also hoping that with the ge that cm will have to get a little more innovative and just overall improve the rom in order to continue with such popularity. Else if both roms were very similar in performance then why flash cm? Or why flash ge? It would be incredibly interesting to see that as a poll.

I can talk circuits and diodes, but talk expressions and functions and my eyes glaze over. Though I can usually follow along when it comes to functionality and how a system works in general.

Most change lists just say "fixed x bug" and no real insight into how or why it was borked in the first place, so if you can find more details that would be great.
