Looks like we have a winner !

The ROM doesn't have glitches any more.

Feels faster and more battery friendly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
I actually hope it doesn't have any glitches anymore, you never know, but so far haven't seen any.

There are still some issues though. but it could be called stable as it is.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Sorry to be a party pooper but I just had a small 5 second freeze followed by by browser giving the error message 'uc browser stopped unexpectedly - wait or force close'

Maybe it's just a one off and unfortunately I didn't catch a log, but uc works fine in tw ge and slim (although I am still getting some occasional small freezes with slim but without this old error message - used to get it often)

That being said, this ROM does feel and look very nice, using your stock kernel and like the high read ahead settings ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
Hi Broodplank, even after installing the initd switcher the super su update error exists in my phone. I don't know what to do now. The only thing is downgrading to 1.94.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drnjstj:
Sounds like a browser error.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DSA:
Browser will fc if there's no internet connection, I'm using the same browser in my ROM and it does the same thing when I'm not connected
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Does it literally freeze your while phone, when this happens it's not just the browser that freezes but whole system, touching anything on screen is just like touching a photo.

Brood, I tried your workaround including installing your init.d toggle but still can't update binary, root is working though at least, just can't get to settings in app.

Looking forwards to your next build with included updated binaries :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
You are not a party pooper, instead you just give feedback which I always appreciate.

I have also got the browser FC once, it totally randomly occurred for me, I assume some small problem in chromium ..

Have you done this?

- rm -Rf /data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu (DO NOT RESTART APP BEFORE REBOOTING\)

- reboot

- start app and update binary

This works.

You think its like that? I am not so sure, since for me the rare browser FC's actually happened when I was connected to the network.

I'd rather assume some chromium flaw. but not sure though, never been able to logcat it so far

Have you done this?

- rm -Rf /data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu (DO NOT RESTART APP BEFORE REBOOTING\)

- reboot

- start app and update binary

That is actually the fix, not the init.d toggler part
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Yes, but I removed /data/data/EU.chainfire.supersu with a root explorer, can't see why that would make any difference though. Then I did reboot start app but still binary failed to update. I am dual voting though so I wonder of this has anything to do with it?

I will give it another go in a bit.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DSA:
Never actually looked into it myself, but its replicable and I would be happy to pull some logs for you dude
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Good news, I did it the way you suggested brood with terminal rather than root explorer and it worked :)

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
That would be very kind of you, I'd like to see the FC :)

Ok nice :), and yes it almost feels like these 2 things are exactly the same (which they are in theory) but it seems removing the folder with terminal emulator (or as I did it, with adb) it actually does work.

Glad that its fixed :)

Hi brood little OT Can You compile the jolla sailfish OS for our device? Thank u
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Hey man, do I have to run your init.d enabler if I'm using another kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TemporaryTester:
Yes, I do believe so.

Easy way to test is to try not doing it, and see if it works.

This ROM is just too perfect isn't it? No place for the discussion of faults..

[MENTION=4354408]broodplank1337[/MENTION] how is broodrom coming along?

Me Gusta!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Or working L preview for jflte ? :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Lol, there are not much bugs indeed. but there is a vulnerability called FakeID, and the current rom revision that has been released is vulnerable.

But I have the fix FIX

broodROM still not going very quick, we are working on the base that must support "all" devices so it takes a while hehe

No i am not doing that at all. Also I will not touch it until fully released.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] swa100:
Do we just need to flash the fix.zip?

Hi

I've tried this rom and i have a problem with wifi

I usually use my wifi connection Alice and with this rom my phone doesn't show it but with stock rom it works perfectly
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Yes it fixes a pretty serious vulnerability that I was not aware of since yesterday. This bug is atm found in many roms. since it has only been fixed for 3 days
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Some modems/routers have this, because they need you to set a specific region afaik. I heard this problem before.

I dont have a fix for it unfortunately.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mordek:
If this is WiFi country code issue, look HERE.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] swa100:
Do we need to wipe cache / dalvik cache before/after flashing this zip?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
No, as it will be done anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
Sorry guys. I think I experience some problems with screen orientation. It goes to horizontal mode to watch a video in YouTube app but does not return to vertical. I think it started after flashing the fix for the serious threat a few posts ago. Is anyone else having problems.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] .Astiak:
I was just using the YouTube app 5 minutes ago, I have not come across this problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Hey Brood, would this fix be compatible with all aosp?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
i am looking for a real aosp ROM so clean but i got a few question...

_i read about ten pages back and see some guys with issue on this rom can we say that it s enough stable for daily use.

_is it a ROM who got update like 1 time each 2 weeks or 2 months

_am trying to get a ROM with the blue of ics or JB (notification bar) is there a way to custom it!?

S4 Slimkat 4.4.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
No it won't, I'm almost 100% sure of that, it will only (MAYBE) work on roms that are very much like mine, but on CM for example it will crash for sure

It's a really stable rom, one of the most stable roms posted here I believe. yes it still gets updates, like every month (but sometimes also every week).

And you can probably customize it by downloading Xposed framework and looking for a module that can do it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
Thank you very much u almost convainced me can users confirm its stable?

S4 Slimkat 4.4.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mordek:
It is stable, so do a backup, flash ROM and TEST!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
You right lool i gonna! Thx dude

S4 Slimkat 4.4.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Ok good news guys, Last week i have had a problem with the kernel which made the rom not boot. now I finally fixed the MDP4 Sync error, which is apparently caused by Linaro 4.9. I will post a new build today again, including 3.4.101 kernel, FakeID vulnerability patched and some other things
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Barthlon:
Great!

When will you dare to call it a real final, what is holding you back at this point? :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
It cannot be called fully stable since there are still minor bugs.

Anyways, here is the latest build

- Kernel 3.4.101 compiled with Linaro 4.9

- FakeID Patched

- More that I forget atm

Ddownload:

http://93.157.4.4/full_jflte-ota-eng.R2Droid.zip

causes bootloop apparently.. dont download
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
Edited
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Couldnt make it to boot, after bootscreen it rebooted
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
Same here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] houmles:
Latest su binary included?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MvL_1729:
Bootloop?

I downloaded and installed this zip - but it is getting in a boot loop. I have performed full factory reset and cleared the cache (which I didn't have to do for the previous builds) but to no avail.

Has anyone else have this too, any clues ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
i am on it. will post new link very soon

edit:

Use one of my private builds instead please, this one I just tested and it doesnt bootloop. dont mind the crazy name

http://93.157.4.4/newtest1.zip
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MvL_1729:
This one works like a charm ... still restoring my backup, so have not tried everything but it surely doesn't bootloop!

Thanks for the quick service, Sir !!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Edit, downloading
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] devilyuri:
Is build version updated to KTU84Q?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
That's a good question... I dont think so but wait for blood to tell you...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Yes it's Q not P, but I see right now that I have included CyanogenMod kernel FFS. hahaha. lol -.-

Guess I will rebuild it again and post a new build .. Yesterday I was really ****ed up so I wasn't really concentrated

New build incoming..... again

edit:

Here is the new build with the RIGHT kernel

- Kernel 3.4.101 compiled with Linaro 4.9

- FakeID Patched

- More that I forget atm

Download:

http://93.157.4.4/full_jflte-ota-eng.R2Droid.zip

Tested, no bootloop
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MvL_1729:
Would this ROM also run on S4 mini?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] okiru880:
Is the S4 mini the same hardware as the S4??

There's your answer.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
i confirm that it works pretty good...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
Hi Broodplank, I've installed your latest version mentioned in post #6325, but I've still got the well known su binary update error. Did you included the latest binary in this build. I've done an update, or do I have to do a clear install?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Yes in fact I included it. But even though I did that It still gives the same error. How I fix the error is by installing init.d support with my init.d toggler then run SuperSU and update binary (but choose CWM/TWRP option instead of normal). This way it actually will be fixed.

So Ill include init.d support by default and use the same zip that supersu installs in cwm. then it HAS to work :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
Yes it works[emoji1][emoji106]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
Does anyone try alucard kernel with this ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
Yeah. Many. Why not you?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] soza971:
Wanted to get some feedback maybe it does not work so good on it like on some other rom...

Edit: ok i installed it for now it's working good!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jacopo97:
Why this rom is 177 mb and the jamal one is 470 mb?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
because this rom is AOSP and his rom is Google Play Edition (Samsung based AOSP)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
Does the proximity sensor work for you with latest build?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] skovbakke:
It works fine for me. I dirty flashed...if that would make a difference.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] swa100:
The gallery seems to be screwed. In some albums I get a lot of non existing Grey photo's. I don't see them in Explorer or on Windows Explorer, very annoying. I tried clearing the gallery's app data but it didn't help. Anyone else has this bug?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MvL_1729:
Nope, Gallery is working fine here
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
All of a sudden my proximity sensor stopped working during calls but gives various values when tested through terminal commands. Is there any way to calibrate it in aosp like there is in samsung tw?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
[quote name="cloak" post=52694205]Hi Broodplank. <br />

After installing your latest gapps I've got double the amount of pictures in the camera album the gallery. So I did a dalvik and cashe wipe. After that I've got three times the amount of pictures, but 2 third of the album is filled with empty links. <br />

<br />

How can I delete the album, so gallery will build a proper one? <br />

<br />

Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9505 met Tapatalk[/QUOTE]<br />

<br />

Go to app management and then go to MediaStorage app under "All" and wipe app settings and cache<br />

Then go to /sdcard/DCIM/ and remove ".thumbnails" folder (browse on pc. Since it may be hidden in file manager)<br />

<br />

Then reboot and it should be ok.<br/>
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TemporaryTester:
Nope.

The solution is to flash back to TW, recalibrate, and flash back.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Edgio60:
The values are stored in the same place so I don't see why this wouldn't work.

Worked for me on GE and the file locations are the same in AOSP.

http://www.androidlegend.com/how-to-perform-proximity-sensor-calibration-on-any-samsung-phone/
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] troullis2004:
I have tried these many times but to no avail. I think i will have to return to tw just for recalibration.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Edgio60:
If you feel like spunking £1.19 instead of reflashing, there's an app called S4 Sensors that might work...

I assume it just tries that above fix for you though!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ionutzvio:
The rom works great.Tnx Brood I have a problem with the network letters H, H+ etc. When the network is recognized i have signal letters but it isn't recognized they are missing :( Any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mordek:
You are not the only one with that problem. Look few pages back, then you will see posts about that issue. It`s not big deal, just missing icons ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Clear camera app data. it seems it looks for "superfine" while there is no option for that in the first place.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
great ROM!

Hallo [MENTION=4354408]broodplank1337[/MENTION]

First of all thanks for this amazing ROM!

You know my brother always laughs at my S4, luckily I don't see him very often :p

He's got a Moto G that doesn't even cost half of what I paid for my s4 but it seems to perform equally well or even better...... Looking at the hardware that shouldn't be possible

So we put some S4 roms to the test using

CF Bench

FBench

Linpack for android

Also more subjective things like opening an app, quickly scrolling through the gallery and off line use of maps using Locus.

Stock Samsung rom was probably the fastest but your ROM didn't stay far behind!!

Other famous Roms I tried were unfortunately not so fast or stable during those tests. Some things just aren't right.

So I'd like to congratulate you and of course thank you for sharing it!

I'm now using it, anybody any tips or tricks or useful exposed modules I should know of?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dunhillpanda:
Try GravityBox :good: All the mods are in it. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TemporaryTester:
A lot of this is case-and-point as to why I'm actually considering a Moto phone. They really worked miracles with them insofar as getting them to really deliver on a budget. Benches are pointless, but once you actually use the thing, it's impressively fast despite being pretty dated.

I'm beginning to grow really disenchanted with this phone, as it just chooses to randomly overheat sometimes. When it heats up, it seems to disconnect my SIM card, in addition to throttling the CPU and GPU. It doesn't seem to be ROM/kernel specific either, and I'm playing games that run fine on my TF300T... Plus, that chrome finish chipping literally all over... Ugh. At least this and the GPE ROM that I use as a fallback make this thing run decently and lagfree...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
Hi

I don't want to make this more off topic than it already is but just to be clear, we were comparing the S4 with a stock rooted Moto G and yes they included some miraculous optimizations in there. Custom Roms though is a different story, I was told.

I don't use the phone for any (3D) gaming so benchmarks based on the 3D score aren't very interesting/informative for me. JBench and CF Bench do some Java tests, which apparently is pretty important in Android. Anyway numbers just compare real easy. But sure they're not the end all.

S4 Heating up like crazy, yes, I had one of those bad batteries... My sim card has never disconnected though.

[MENTION=5321148]dunhillpanda[/MENTION] thanks for the heads up for GravityBox, that's a custom rom maker:cyclops:

$#%@&OnTopic

I ran into a problem while listening to music and opening the gallery app, music starts to stutter...

I used Poweramp and stock gallery, here's a catlog

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5rj4046h5joieuk/2014-08-20-11-55-49.txt

Also tried Quick Pick and Gone Mad Music player, same result

I remember having the same problems on Slimrom.

Anybody else get some stutters when you open the gallery app?

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] afaquekhaja:
Does this rom have the call quality issue like the other ones?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TemporaryTester:
The heating does worry me, and it happens with both of my batteries (both Samsung OEM, one Chinese from the VZW S4 and one Korean from the ATT S4). Heating is primarily in the upper half of the device, around where the SIM slot and camera are.

With the gallery issue, I get stutter issues with opening stuff from the external SD. Internal SD stuff is fine. I'm a user of GMMP myself, and it is at its most noticeable when trying to load playlists. Of particular note, the two music players you mention have their own media scanners, independent of the (rubbish) Android one.

I don't have issues with call quality, so it's fine. Could you elaborate?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
I think it has something to do with some video codecs being ran too early or something like that,I don't know. There is something like that in the catlog. The strange thing is that i haven't read anything about this error, so am I the only one having this problem:(

It's also happening with ES File Explorer and Root Explorer when I open a folder with video files in it. The playback of music gets interrupted.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
Found a workaround by turning off

---(show image) thumbnails---

In es file explorer and root explorer
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
You guys comparing Moto G with with this phone (S4) are drunk, or blind or both.

I have/had both phones, and my S4 with CM wipes ass with Moto G all stock in all aspects.

That being said, I would probably never pay money for phones like Samsung, HTC high end phones, I have another way of getting them. Moto G is a great phone, and what I have bought for my brother and what I would buy for my self if I had to look for a private smart phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
No contradiction at all. I like Hyundai, statistic show it is one of most reliable cars in last decade, and almost certainly best value for money (French government IIRC claimed their sell under production value, if this is OK english.). I bought i30 new model, but I'm not idiot and I cannot compare its technology with the one of the cars from the high end class. It depends on what one values.

Not really nice comparison but you get the point.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] waterdaan:
Especially with this amazing rom! As it should, looking at the hardware of the phones. Debloated touchwiz was also surprisingly fast. So sure I agree with you.

Anyway that whole Moto G thing was the reason for me to revise the rom i was using. I downloaded a couple of Roms and compared them. What more can I tell you. I'm just having difficulty getting my thoughts on paper.

By the way, I know nothing about cars, so don't trick me by comparing stuff with cars :cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
Hi Broodplank,

Some programs are running more stable when I shutoff HW overlays. But when I've done a reboot I've to select the HW overlays again.

How can I make this selection as a default, so I don't lose this selection, each time after restarting my phone?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] xk0niR:
There is a module for Xposed.

Its called NomoreOverlay
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cloak:
I have a lot of apps installed.

Is a external SD with a Android sdext partition a solution getting a faster system? And yes is creating the partition enough or do I have to do something in the Rom, or do I have to activate it somewhere?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] beston94:
I just want to say something. I appreciate this developer for being honest. I don't mind that this ROM has been stuck on prefinal for such a long time. Most developers would say stable when it really isn't. But this guy here will not call it final until everything works ( up to some extent of course)

So thanks for working for me.

With regards,

Beston94

Just wondering if you are still working on this, or busy with something else?
