V13 report

Hi,

I want to report that V13 is working smoothly for me, no (obvious) battery drain, everything seems to work.

Bugs I found:

1) Battery theme option (Echoe addon) FCs on me, no biggie

2) I suspect SD card is mounted with wrong options, Titanium Backup cannot save to it (not sure if other apps can) - TB works on 4.4.2 GE and I know there has been the same problem before and was solved by mount options.

Overall, great work, thanks!

The files from step two are copied across, but wifi still isn't working, what changes do you suggest in build.prop?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] StuartTheFish:
What makes you think the HTC is faster John? Is it just because of touchwiz? As hardware wise the processor is clocked higher, has ddr3 memory instead of the HTC one ddr2, etc. Not contesting, just wondering.

Congratulations on 4.4.2 chief. It works superb.:good:

I have not come across any app I use to use on 4.3 that hasn't work on the new 4.4.2 and it is fast as well.

It should be a good experience for everyone if they follow the instructions to the letters.

I will provide feedback as I continue to rough drive it......

Please help.

I want to flash this rom. I have flashed the original stock Samsung 4.4.2 already, via odin. I know I now need to flash philz CWM recovery but I haven't got access to a pc for a while. Is there any way to flash the custom recovery from stock recovery? Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
unfortunately there's no way via stock recovery...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] slking1989:
Okay thanks for your help. I guess I'm stuck now until I can get to a pc :(

Is there also no way I can flash a different (pre rooted )4.4.2 rom with a custom recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
unfortunately i dont think one exists yet but again it would be impossible because of the stock recovery...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] slking1989:
Is there a way i can root my phone without pc? Then flash recovery with mobile odin? Or any other workaround to either give me root access or a custom recovery?

9% battery drain in 14 hours, screen off, wifi on with weak signal

antutu benchmark, three times, controversial results: one over 29000, a 28764 and one a bit over 19000 :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
Yes and no. ART its definitely faster than Dalvik mode. But Qualcomm optimized dalvik its working waaaay much faster, smoother and battery friendly than ART on my S4. For now I can live without ART. My phone is running faster and smoother than anytime.

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 AM ----------

I don't bother anymore with benchmarks in general and especially with Antutu. I got few times scores above 29.000points while my phone was laggy as hell when running TW roms and never scored above 23.000 points when I was running on Echoe 2.2 GE even if my phone was working better than ever until this leak.

I don't contest benchmarks results. Probabily they can justify the scores. Just don't reflect my user experience. I don't need a benchmark score to know if i can be happy or not with my phone.

Correct on all accounts mate. It's TW that slows down the s4. The HTC one is alot quicker because of this, even tho s4 is clocked higher.

I was wondering why this big difference between the test results, especially that the tests were consecutive. I personally don't judge my phone's performance on these kind of tests and previously had some hilarious results as well.

Its not a big secret.. the screenshot was to prove that the line in settings that talks about security software is gone... Like the new security software that were there (but those were gone from the beginning anyway). The modification I made to disable security software I thought would lead to a non booting or no wifi phone.. it didnt thats why I think its worth something and im pursuing further.. the most important test is being done as we speak with a zip I provided to wuby who is on v13 with old bootload3r and no wifi...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] chavxxx:
I don't know, maybe it's just me. But I've noticed that Ausdim Kernel v13 consumes battery faster compared to older versions. I'm using v12 for almost 4 hours now and it seems more battery efficient compared to v13.

Im running it now on my ATT S4. What he means is if you have problems dont come in here misdirecting the thread because it wasnt made for the I337. As long as you flash with loki your good bro.

ATT S4 Rooted. Beastin.

4.2.2
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] chavxxx:
Yep, tested stock and UV'ed -25 & -50. Also UC'ed. So far, v12 has better battery stats for me. I also restored my kernel settings to default before flashing another version if that's what you're asking.

Hers's my test now:

Compared to Echoe 1.2 taken last July 29:

I'm not the type who wants a very fast device. I don't play games on my device. I prefer a stable and battery efficient device than a ultra fast/powerful device. As for the speed, if the menu and device navigation won't lag, that's enough for me.

I'm a "Rom Jumper" type, I've tried almost all roms available for the i9505 variant. Echoe Rom has everything I need and looking for in a rom. That's why I gave my full support to Friedrich420. Dude, thank you... (if only you were a girl and I'm still single I would wanted to marry you.) Hahaha... :D

This test is a comparison of the Ausdim Kernel and not between Echoe Rom versions...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Garner:
Does this rom have hold menu to kill app or back to kill?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] claireth:
if you hold the menu button it will give you all the apps that are open...you can close them all at once or one by one..

is that what you mean??

other than that you dont have to close anything...had 20 running and phone was fast as lightning ;)

But i suggest if you havent flashed it yet...give the rom a try,you wont be dissapointed :)

Talking about the battery icon, during my test, I installed Xbalst Tool and it works without any issue with v13. I was able to select from about 6 different battey icons and it works without even the need for a reboot.

The four way start menu also work and status bar colour also works.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
If you have flashed the leak before i'm not sure you can downgrade without any problem... instead if you just cwm flashed like i did , then yess you can downgrade.. you can for ex. restore an old backup :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bennetski:
I did flash the leak first. I'm gonna try and re flash a stock 4.3 and see what happens I guess.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
So just try restore a backup now.. If it goes wrong then you can odin flash the old 4.3 but you have to know you are going to void knox!!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Battlehero:
For all the people asking if you flashed the leaked 4.4.2 you can downgrade without any problems, as many people have reported. I myself have not tried it as I'm on the old bootloader(MGA).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bennetski:
I did not back up but am not bothered about knox. I triggered that ages ago. So what I need to know is if I can just flash the V12 straight away now or will I have to flash a 4.3 stock first ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wuby986:
Try straight away.. It could work. If not you can always get back to odin

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vladimir_carlan:

I tried to avoid but i don't feel good not to have all TW 4.4 goodies. This is how Samsung its losing a customer by making him happy =))

Hey Echoenians, I've been working away for a while and cant believe the progress you and the team have made. I updated to v 12 and more than happy.

Question? How smooth is smooth? Been using Echoe roms since the beginning, and every update I think 'man this thing is sooooo smooth, yeah, much snappier' then I dribble a bit.

Then another base, another update, and I think 'why would I need to update? It can't get any faster.... can it?' But it does. .. I'm sure it does. I don't know how it does because surely it can't be even smoother? Rambling.

Anyway, it all comes round full circle. Flashoholics beware, it's a Flashoholics dream development team. Flash heaven.

I'm not sure about updating to v 13 yet. I'm knox free at the moment and out of warranty anyway. Is there any reason, apart from warranty, and not being able to downgrade, that I wouldn't want to flash the latest bootloader? I keep reading things about not being able to flash custom recoveries.
