[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] minato008:
I'm having a little bug, whenever im playing music && i have an app open, if i turn the phone from portrait to landscape or vice versa, the music stops playing for a quick second and then starts again automatically. This does not happen if I don't have any apps open or if the phone is sleep. I tried 2 different music players but it still happens. Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Do you here like a little noise when turning the phone side ways?

Sent from my SPH-L720
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
If you have the sound effect enabled for when your screen rotates it will cause the music to pause for a split second to play the rotation sound.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
And how do you removed this? Lol >. <

Your latest MF9 days 7/16 as the build date still :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Ahhh I'll fix that real fast that's my fault.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] minato008:
so how do you stop that sound effect
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] danasmith2816:
settings, my device, sound, ( make sure system sounds aren't checked), then go to volume and turn the 'system' slider all the way down.

that should get rid of it . :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] minato008:
that does remove the little bubbly sound when you rotate it, but it still stops for a split second, im guessing that can't be fixed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
The split second delay is also due to the device itself rotating. This could be removed if you disable rotation but I know some people enjoy their landscape mode so removing this could cause a lot of strife in that regard.

For users such as yourself that are frustrated with this I would recommend installing an app that allows you to enable and disable rotation in certain portions of the system.

New build posted with adjusted build.prop release date and some other tweaks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jacobzamarripa:
Can anyone confirm that sbeam is working or some way of getting it to work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
I'm continuing to look into the addition of S-Beam back into this ROM without suffering battery life loss or a slow down in day to day use.

For now, it's still excluded but I may have a new build out in the coming days that includes S-Beam - a dirty flash over the existing 8-6-13 build would work to update as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
You could just probably just put a seperate flashable zip or make a aroma installer for this rom so they can choose what to add and stuff, just throwing out ideas you know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
A flashable zip will be posted but aroma takes a considerable amount of coding development I don't have time for currently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] d0nkeykiller:
Can I install 8/6 on top with out wiping data?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Yes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:
Would Super Beam from the Play Store work? Or is everything associated with S-beam gone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:
Working on a custom boot animation for this Rom. To help get my thanks meter up.. gonna say iNTriNsiC Simplicity is Performance with a graphic interface... still working on it. Working some 12 hour shifts so hopefully will have a dropbox within 48 hours....KEEP ON THE LOOKOUT.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Oh wow, thanks man! I've been being pulled every which direction dev wise lately. Wicked rom, MIUI, and intrinsic are all demanding time at once it seems lol.

Plus I'm trying to dig to the bottom of this s beam information.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Team DevDigitel:
1x and 3g icon changes are working after flashing the mf9 mod zip from creator. . Don't know if anyone else had issues getting it to stick when flashing rom as is but i wiped cache and dalvick flashed zip and repeated wipe.. I couldnt get to stick with a clean install on any version through the rom zip ..hope this helps someone
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:
Never got a reply, haven't tested yet...is nfc/android beam taken out of this rom? If not then the play store offers "super beam" which should work... this appears to be a awesome replacement for s-beam.... just as skivi is a replacement for s-voice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
That app could very well work, I'm not sure that's something you'd have to test on your own man.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] redline57:
Wifi.

Hi,

Multiple clean wipe to everything and still Wifi wont turn on... Missing anything
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
For some reason some people simply cannot run stock kernel. I still haven't figured out why but that seems to always be the issue. Try a aftermarket kernel and see if that works for ya.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] redline57:
Wow,

I never gotten an answer so fast. Thank you ... will check now..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Not a problem bud I do what I can.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] redline57:
Got it with Ktoons kernel..

Getting the party started now..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Good to hear man, hopefully she fits the bill for ya!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xNicoyAx:
Its weird with the wifi going broke on stock kernel. I've noticed that on other ROMs that come with the Samsung Keyboard. Maybe it's a trend?

I ran 2 other keyboards from ROMs that come with the Samsung one as default and wifi started working on the stock kernel. Coincidence, maybe?

Boot Animation

Custom boot animation...iNTriNsiC Simplicity is Performance... Will be revising over the weekend... but so far so good.

1. Download bootanimation.zip herehttp://db.tt/wj5OBb1K

2. Copy/paste root of phone overwriting current in.... system/media

3. Download/flash in recovery "enable boot animation" in download section of page one of this thread.

4. I think you have to have a custom kernel

5. Help increase my "Thanks Meter"

Tell me your inputs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] holdenjr1642:
Nice boot animation.

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

I lost my wifi when I flashed one of the 12 awesome framework animations and had to flash the ktweaker kernel to get it back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] keltsi95:
Hi,

I'm having battery life problem with the latest update. I'm using Stock kernel and my battery time is 13 hours aprox. with 2 hours on screen. Before it lasted 24 hours with 3 or 4 hours of screen time. Iv'e installed Wanam Xposed too. Could this be a problem? I noticed that Task Manager is Draining my battery. Any ideas??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] holdenjr1642:
It definitely shouldn't be doing that. I would try clearingthe task manager app data, flushing the davlik cache and if all else fails, revert to previous nandroid backup until the problem is solved. Then I would flash tweaks/mods and install apps one at a time until the problem reveals itself. Are you running the active app widget? I am not usung Wanam but I would post this issue on that thread too.

I hope this helped.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] beseenwithgreen:
Hey peoples! did anyone use the most recent ComaDose v 2.1 mod on this rom? If so is it compatible with it or are there issues using that mod? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xNicoyAx:
I've noticed random reboots with it. Sure, your speed steps up a bit, but the random reboots are annoying. Even with tweaked kernel settings. I'm actually downloading the uninstall zip right now, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] beseenwithgreen:
Thanks bud! that is enough info to sway me not to flash :)

sbeam/superbeam

For all that that want to transfer files without s-beam... download superbeam off the playstore. Verified working. Transfered a picture and a 335mb video to my girlfriends s3 within a 70 seconds... no internet needed. Receiving phone: open superbeam.... Other phone: using a file explorer "open as" superbeam..... DONE!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] p3tr0s:
I've been using es file explorer to share files over a WiFi network. Its pretty damn fast too. Figured I'd add this is for those that may already use it as opposed to downloading another program. Both phones need to have it though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Just re-wiped my phone and installed the downloaded zip, no issues for me here.

Anyone else having a WiFi issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Looks like MF9 will take hold tomorrow guys, wanna make sure I produce something that I'm happy with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Kingmdm:
Thanks for update! I also will hold off installing until MF9 version is up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Sounds good, for those that installed the MDL version how is it running for you?

This thread has been up for almost an entire day with no feedback :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] RegnierD:
I installed this earlier today and got a bootloop, but I think it was a bad download. I've redownloaded the rom, and will flash it while on the way to work tomorrow.

Tapatalked from my GSIV
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
That's a bummer I certainly hope this was just a bad download.

I installed this ROM five different times to be absolutely certain that it was stable. To hear that people are having issues flashing isn't what I was hoping for.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] RegnierD:
The flash seemed to take an unusually long amount of time, so I'm really thinking that my terrible Wi-Fi at work borked something while downloading. Can you provide an md5 of the original zip file (before upload) just to confirm before I flash again in the morning?

Tapatalked from my GSIV
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Sure, the MD5 I'm getting locally on my PC before upload is as follows.

Try a different custom kernal..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Custom Kernels bogged down benchmarks and performance for me personally (this is my personal experience).

I'd try flashing the MDL kernel in recovery one more time before jumping to the custom kernels.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 11secEVO:
To be completely be honest, I rooted my phone and tried almost every ROM in here. Battery life suffered. Pictures came out really bad, "Galaxy S II took better pictures". Reliability sucks almost on every ROM in here, considering the most popular ones are PORTS "give me a break". I did not get an S4 to have crappy pictures, bad battery life and unstable OS. I keep up to your ROMs believe it or not :) but I will refuse to root my phone and flash anything until the Google ROM from the S4 becomes available. I think that I am over all the flashing :( it gets old very fast when you have kids and you want to take pictures and the phone freezes or half the time won't work.

Remember these points.

Reliability - Stock or Better

Pictures & Video - Stock or Better

Battery Life - Stock or Better

Bloat - Haha well removed :) with the option to add back certain things.

Until this happens I will not flash anything :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Sorry you feel that way man.

Did you run into issues with this particular ROM? I've gotten better than stock battery life and it's been rock solid stable for me.

Looking at the download stats it has over 100 downloads and there seems to be only 2 or 3 people posting with a problem and one of them may have just a corrupt download since it was downloaded via the phone itself.

The things you list are all included in this ROM for the most part:

Reliability - Haven't had one FC or crash on this ROM in 72 hours of heavy, heavy use as as stress test.

Pictures & Video - This is stock, "better" won't really happen from a hardware stand point because that remains static. Any "improvements" to the media capturing quality of this device would be done via software I believe.

Battery Life - This was mentioned above, I'm getting better than stock - using the stock kernel. I think this is due to the next point...

Bloat - A lot of bloatware was removed in this ROM which may have increased battery life due to some of the processes running in the background when they weren't needed.

No one will ever force you into flashing a ROM. Take your time and test them out at your own pace or don't test any out at all and remain stock. The beauty of android is it's ultimately your choice!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 11secEVO:
I'm sorry but I have not flashed your ROM yet. If I do it will be of the new one. I would like to give it a shot. I was just sick of having issues and I have y phone setup the way I like it and to tell you the truth starting over really sucks but I am whiling to try it. When do you think the new one will be up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
New one may be up tomorrow, may not be, all depends on how much free time I end up getting.

I'm hesitant to move to MF9 right now because even people flashing the stock MF9 Odexed and Deodexed ROMs are giving some people problems it seems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 11secEVO:
Take your time and just make it perfect. Don't rush it. I am actually going to give this a try right now :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
NANDROID BACK UP BEFORE YOU DO.

That way if something doesn't work for some god forsaken reason you can just load up your backup and it's like nothing ever happened.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 11secEVO:
Yea I know :) I have been rooting all of my phone since the Nexus One. I went through almost 9 phones since then :) Can you do me a favor please?

Incorporate hacked exchange in your rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Have a feeling a hacked exchange won't act nice with my work's exchange servers. Because I and some other users use this ROM for work specifically I don't think I can do that but you could import it yourself if you want!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 11secEVO:
Na I'll use enhanced email but I really hate it because its ugly as sin. Haha
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] XcoNjA:
Haha sorry man, I have to be selfish here. I can't make my own ROM not useable by me. That wouldn't work to well for anyone sadly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:
I've done serious testing with comadose v2.1with this rom.... ZERO issues. Running for 5 days straight. KT Kernel undervolted and overclocked "a little"... I haven't tested 4g because I'm flashed to straight talk.

No issues sound great, so whats the verdict with battery life and such?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:

I'm having an issue installing sone of the apps from the removed apps zip. It keeps telling me install failed? I'm using root Explorer and have mounted system to r/w

You have to move apps to system/apps and set those apps with -rw-r-r permissions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KStyles69:
Your battery should be better? Are you using KT Kernel? If not then try using it and do my perfered settings here

I know it says to reflash but KT Kernel seems to run better if you do. If you use comadose "as I do" then make sure you flash before you install the kernel "as the instructions say"

After I think about it, comadose only works if you have a custom kernel :confused: so maybe do my undervolting to bump your battery to 16 hours should do this trick. I get a solid 24 hours on this rom

I know the screen on time drains the heck out of the battery but nevertheless....My phone "now" only drains %1 per hour on standbye. I think that's amazing...."as long as it's in service or in airplane mode"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tkgadgetman:
Before I flash I want to make sure i have everything. I am on a custom MDL rom and I updated to MF9 modem/firmware only.

I see some had problems with wifi and the solution was to flash stock kernel. Does this ROM have the stock kernel baked in? Also can you supply a link for the stock kernel just in case I have to reflash it? I searched and can not find it. Even rwilco's repository did not have it.

Thanks and looking forward to running this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] danasmith2816:
look in the General section under the heading 'directory' you'll find all the roms, kernels modems, etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] b0tes:
Hmm...I can't tell if it's your 4+ hours of screen on

or

your phone

or

this ROM or perhaps a combination of all three, but I'm almost doubling that battery life running PACMAN RC1, albeit with an hour or so less of screen time.

I'm going to flash this ROM on my girl's phone, as I'd imagine it's been de-bloated and optimized when compared to the stock MDL Touchwiz, and I'll report back after a fews days.

Thanks for sharing!

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

I run LTE, WiFi and GPS always on, and I think having to disable any of those is counter-intuitive and that it's possible to still achieve a full days charge with the proper steps and also without having to undervolt.

I don't know, I might be wrong; I'm in a bigger market than you and so my coverage is pretty impressive and that might be a factor as well.

I'll flash this ROM on my girl's phone and post the results after a few cycles and settling in.
