First impressions v2.1

So, I'm using v2.1 full version for some days now.

I've installed this version after doing a FULL WIPE en formatted

everything

that can be formatted, so I would start from a completely "new" phone ;)

Installation went very smooth, no bootloop or restarts necessary.

Once installed and the setup was finished I left everything standard. No tweaks or other adjustements at the kernel etc.

First impressions: very snappy, smooth, no lag or fc's

Even with the standard sammy rom I've had some heating issues but with this version of echo in combination with Ausdim 1.6 that issue was much better. The phone got warm after using the internet but not as much as before.

Batterylife isn't so good but this is a known issue and not rom related.

Installed the newest adam kernel yesterday to see and feel the difference. I have to admit that the phone is getting even less warm with adam than with the ausdim kernel ...

So, final conclusion, like Michael Jackson once said, this is it ;)

A great rom with no issues and very smooth. Proud to have the banner in my signature :good::good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ValVK:
Heya Friedrich,

would you take a look on Post 1415 and 1417 about Ausdim v17 and EchoeROM in Ausdim kernel tread?

Thank you as always for excellent work!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
And do what my friend? You guys reached the conclusion on 2 user reports... Did any of you bother to clean the init.d folder??

Edit: oh wow look at that... apparently it happened on people using omega... hmmm, but according to 2 users' report its the Echoe Roms fault.... I mean definitely. .. they did all the tests and their conclusion is valid and reliable...:confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dariolob:
Hey there, first of all thanks for your great ROM! As a developer, I find your work absolutely great :)

The only issue I've encountered is about system apps: every time I try to remove even only one of them through titanium backup, the phone gets stuck on the next boot. Do you have any clue? If I don't get wrong, manually removing apks from system apps works just fine though :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] musti19:
Is it possible to compile this rom with LINARO? I think this should increase the performance..

Its stock. Samsung compiled it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sjamajee:
I'm using Uninstall Master (free from playstore) and i'm having no trouble in removing apps (incl system apps)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tuckersmission:
Hey, Yeah, I have the same issue. The workarounds I used was to:

1. Run the 'Debloat.zip' and then reinstall anything I wanted back. or....

2. For things the debloat didnt remove I deleted the relevant .APK files from the System/Apps folder.

Deleting from the System/App folder worked without issue. You can see which .APKs need deleting by looking at the script.

I don't know if its a TB issue or not.

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 AM ----------

Interesting, I am running Echoe v2.1 and Audism v17 with no issues at all. Wifi working, No Lag in gallery, in fact the rom is running even smoother with Audism v17. Buttery smooth. Like a smooth thing!

So far I have had no reason to mess with the init.d scripts, ROM just works :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skerce:
Firstly I must thank the developer for a sweet rom. The smoothest rom I have tried. I am using 2.1 lite with audism v16. I like the colour of keyboard it looks better than stock but I can't get auto space to work properly when selecting words from the suggestions, I did not have this issue with v2.1 full. Also Is there a way to install the stock email app?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tschulieh:
Hey, I already provided the stock email app as well as the stock keyboard several times in the thread PLEASE use the search and read some pages back, you'll find all the required Infos. :thumbup:

Is it the original cable that came with your S4 ? Have you any mod running ? Tried different USB Port ? I don't have a Problem with PC connection, can copy files from and to the Phone.

Oh, i find out a thing. That my s4 can connect to laptop(running win 7), but cant connect to pc(running win xp). So what do u think about the diffirence of 2 this win????
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
I don't think it's windows. Maybe try another usb port and install the samsung drivers new. Never had issues, wether xp or win7

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
You may update your modem to the latest one of your country /carrier.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Darkwing_X:
Hmmm. can't imagine that's a problem with Windows. On Win7 i got the drivers always installed automatic while pluging in the Phone.

On XP maybe try to install the Drivers again, or maybe update them. Never had problems on XP, but to be honest when i last connected my Phone to XP i had still 4.2.2 on the Phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Teknodad1974:
I will be glad when Samsung releases the official 5.0 for everyone. So we can all can have fun without issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
Official release doesn't guarantee an experience with no issue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jazenf:
When you flashed the L Speed, what version did you flash. I just flashed it an I was having issues booting up my phone. An now that I got it running I went into the terminal app to activate it an I get an error saying it can't find the file.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
V1.5.1 is the one to flash. I have no issue with it and I can feel a slight difference.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
I think this is the last time i will buy a samsung phone because they don't respect users at all . Even if the update came i don't care anymore , i was excited before but not now. They didn't add any new features , didn't even update the weather widget and lot of things.( Based on what say most of I9500 users)

Hopefully we have customs roms.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
One thing I like the most with Samsung is the removable battery. So I can easily buy an extended battery and do whatever I want with my phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jchef:
Also tons of cases and accessories like mophie juice pack...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
The screen also is awesome!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
Battery life is good for me!

I am using an extended battery actually. I find battery life to be good! Anyone else can confirm with me?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jazenf:
Maybe it depends on whose rom you're using, cause I'm on Able95. An after flashing the L speed, my WiFi don't work. Also when I try to start the file in terminal I get this message.

I will flash this lollipop version an give it a try. Do you notice a difference between the other version (Lollipop roms)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Joanse:
Yeah, i flashed 1.5.1 and it took like one hour to boot again because it flashes cache... But dont worry, it automatically updates your apps and it boots as it was before, once you are there, install emulator, type su, then type seeder, and press option #4 or 3 (i dont remember now) to activate it on boot, then reboot and thats it, you have it working its not great difference, but you can feel it :)

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

I dont know if it depends on the rom, but as the dev said in that forum, it is for any android and any rom... I was afraid of having issues with mine, but nothing happened, my rom has been stable all the time, except for some already known issues... Try reflashing the backup, (that i supposed you made) and flash L speed again. If you want ti try it again ;)

It is three times bigger than the stock battery. It comes with a special cover. It's a good one. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good extended battery for their s4!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
Yeah, it's the best battery I've ever used. With it, I cannot complain about battery life. All I need from a rom is performance and stability. Hopefully I find these qualities in Echoe roms.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 4aces:
There's no AEL for lollipop yet but with AEL you can make your phone blazing fast. The ROM enables some speed for launcher and improves the overall performance a little but the main control is brought by the Kernel so that's where you can decide for speed or battery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
AEL is the Kernel!

All I can say about AEL is: "AEL is the kernel" !

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
HEllo ,i test this rom ! But why i get android upgrading optimazing app when i power on device?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
It's normal , the phone install the apps , i had this in a lot of roms , just let it do the job then it will boot :)

I think that's happen when you past to a higher android version ( I may be wrong in this last idea .. )
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Indigoeyes:
Love the ROM!:o Just one issue, it's with the WiFi. It works on the initial boot and continue to work flawlessly, but when I later on try to connect to another WiFi it closes down settings and gives me the message "Settings has stopped working" :(:(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 4aces:
Since it's a port there are possible issues...I think someone else had that and suggested to connect by keep pushing the wifi name (long press) and then connect. As long as it's not based on an official ROM with kernel sources there's no 100% guarantee everything works.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Indigoeyes:
That might actually work =) thanks pal!:highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MatteoB92:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
No its not normal, because i get this all time,...

Anyone on this rom have the same message always after power on device?

Not only on first boot ...

---------- Post added at 07:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 AM ----------

Anyone ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] stl-soldier:
It does that when you wipe cache. Do you have something set to automatically wipe cache on shutdown/reboot?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
no..i download the rom.zip I delete security log agent.

wipe all

flash

reboot normal

after I power off and power on I get android upgrading...

..just say android upgrading for 1 -3 second
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] stl-soldier:
If it's only for 1-3 seconds I'm not sure. That's not too bad though. I thought you were talking about the several minutes it takes to rebuild the cache after a wipe. That would be really inconvenient.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phone_Guru:

We talked about this hundreads times. It is impossbile , they are differents , different specs . The I9500 use exynos while our I9505 is snapdragon 600. It was possible to port from I9508 because he is almost the same as I9505.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jimmy Mossiba Floyd:
so, it's possible to port Note 4 apps like [MENTION=429896]alb[/MENTION]e did(whatever SoC was it on the Note 4) but it's impossible to port the I9500 or I9506 (and by the way, I9506 is Snapdragon 800 SoC)!!

Please stop saying it's impossible while you don't even know what you're talking about!! we're not talking about the firmware's core, we're just wishing to get rid of the Chinese firmware's apks and framework-res that are mostly not-multilanguaged (if I might use this word!!) and if you're not a DEV please don't talk for them, let them talk for themelf :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
What the hell are you talking about ? You said " update it BASED on their build " , and if you want note 4 apps [MENTION=5403589]Albe95[/MENTION] have a thread with all this but i don't think they will work on lollipop .

We did not want your help. We needed the OP to tell us if it's possible to port much-international-friendly apks and framework-res files coming from the I9505's closest cousin (which is the I9506) because the I9508 files are made for the chinese (nothing personal chinese people :P )

Hi everyone, this rom is really fantastic, i am just curious because i have the MSM8960 board and the first 3 days with this rom i didn't had any reboot or problem, and now the phone started to give me random reboots (just when it is not used, if i use the phone it works perfect), i was thinking maybe it is some of the apps which i didn't use before that cause the reboots, is that possible? And is there any workaround or fix yet for the reboots?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Yousvel:
Try to disable power saving mode, that can help. And also disable WiFi scanning when the phone is sleeping.

If you go to WiFi setting then bring up your setting by pressing the menu button on you phone which is to the left of you home button the press advanced and then change the WiFi while sleeping to never. It reduces reboots but I have found I still got a couple.
