I was reading that thread recently:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2634271

I remembered that near the last page,the 30/03/2014 someone said this:

"Newest TWRP doesnt need any hack, just add TARGET_USERIMAGES_USE_F2FS := true

...

"Its a build flag, it has to be in BoardConfigCommon.mk before you make the recoveryimage"

Would need to compile TWRP of course but apparently there's kind of initial support that would make things easier?

Why Odin and Windows? If it is because of the recovery, you can flash it with heimdall and Linux...

I recently notices that right after the phone boots, you can't lock it for about 10 seconds using the on/off button. After +- 10 secs (when all the widgets are fully loaded) it works again. Does everybody has this?

An off-topic question(forgive me if I might have posted in the wrong thread), does the 'AOSP-4.4.2-Boosterpack-v7' work on stock Samsung Kitkat ROM? I'm using Galaxy S4 I9505 running Stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 Kitkat ROM. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TemporaryTester:
Nope.

Also, [MENTION=4354408]broodplank1337[/MENTION], I've been having some trouble dirty-flashing this release. It seems to work fine, then reboots after it's given a bit of time (ranging from 2 minutes to a few hours), and endlessly does so. It hits the lockscreen, which I can then type into, then reboots. I'm willing to blame this on the dirty-flash, but its behaviour seems to be very odd. Dirty-flashing back to the earlier PreFinal does not fix it, while a Nandroid does. It feels like the internal storage chip may be dying, but somehow it's running fine on PreFinal.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
this occurs when something in ART or dalvik has changed and you have not wiped dalvik-cache (and /cache), try wiping dalvik cache (in recovery advanced > wipe dalvik-cache) and try it again. I have also had this and its not your phone. it's 'normal'

NEWS:

btw guys, I have some good news, Since the final is insight, I have decided to switch compilation method, from GCC 4.7 for both ROM and kernel to GCC 4.8 Sabermod for ROM and GCC 4.7 Linaro for kernel. so actually boosterpack is kinda integrated now. I might also include the dalvik libs as well so that there is no need for boosterpack anymore whatsoever.

I also made some shell script that allows you to remove ads in general (hosts file) by typing 'removeads' in terminal emulator or in adb shell

I will soon post this new test version, it runs even smoother than before :good: also it does not affect battery life in any way.

Battery icon? quick tiles?

hi

I just switched from liquidsmooth to this because the new toolchain seemed interesting to me.

is it true that now that cm is a company all feature's are removed?:confused:

This vanilla rom, it doesn't have the. Extra goodies... If you want, install xposed and. Gravitybox... Most features in other rom will be enabled
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pitastrudl:
This ROM is meant to be as close to vanilla aosp as it can be. Like stock rom on the nexus devices. So you can get the desired customization with gravitybox xposed module. CM is a modded vanilla aosp rom, while this is just a vanilla rom. It's meant for developers to have a base to build upon.

Technically speaking, every ROM is AOSP since its built from AOSP, we just use the term to enlist those that are not heavily themed like sense or touchwiz. But i'm not saying you're wrong. :highfive:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DigitalUnderground:
Happens even on my nexus 5 at times. I don't think that's a ROM issue... Its a aosp issue or an issue with how those apps play with 4.4.2.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
i am monitoring for updates since a few hours ;)

It might just be that this behavior is caused by the kernel, why? because I have seen a commit once (not sure if its merged) that disabled a certain stream of ipv4/6 traffic when screen is off. I personally think this may be the issue. but maybe thats way too technical, I also have this on 3g sometimes, when you open whatsapp suddenly you have all kinds of new messages.

see above response, it might be just even more technical, but also could be something totally different

As far as I know this behavior didn't occur on rc4 + down. Or maybe I'm wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Comparing CM with totally closed source software is strange. Applying your logic almost no one runs AOSP, because people install xposed, run AOKP, use different features not provided by AOSP, from OC and kernel tweaks to the GUI related ones.

Yes, not everything is open source at CM, but same applies to other AOSP based projects, and that is sad truth. Some things wouldn't simply work without proprietary blobs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Misk77:

You gotta understand though, touch wiz and sense still begin with aosp with their proprietary software overlay which is closed source. I grant you, a manufacturer closed source is different from cyanogenmods (mostly) open source. But cyanogenmods changes to source is huge even if they leave a very base android theme. Maybe they don't do it as much as Samsung or HTC. Brood (besides some light theming) has nearly pure aosp here. And that is a huge task he has undertaken.

I gave a try at building your kernel with gcc 4.8 and my own toolchain (built with crosstool-ng)

Strace left me with two errors with these drivers:

gpu/msm

gpu/msm2

As for the last one, it seems I can't find this directory msm2 in many other kernel. Anything particular to your build ? I see you mentioned msm2 and not msm in your gpu/msm/makefile.

For msm :

From what I understand, there is a C function, struct kgsl_device_platform_data, somewhere (can't find it) with a missing member called nap_allowed

[MENTION=5234003]TemporaryTester[/MENTION] :

I may have found a fix for the issue on your mercedes (its for BWM though but I think the same thing is the cause, which is that the manufacturer of the car is violating the default spec)

https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/48164/

Higly technical:

Bluetooth losing HF connection to car-kit after 5 seconds

This patch adresses a change in bluetooth which causes a possible

loss of connection within 5 seconds after connecting. This new

behavior appeared with android 4.2 (4.1.2 worked fine in this regard).I traced down the disconnects to an BTA_AG_SVC_TOUT_EVT via a timer

that checks if a service connection was made within a few seconds.

Essentially bta_ag_svc_conn_open() was not called on AT+CMER because

android thought the car kit supported 3WAY but the car kit did not

set the 3WAY flag via AT commands and did not send AT+CHLD either.

Android otoh used the flag obtained by SDP and expected 3WAY behavior

and eventually disconnected when AT+CHLD did not arrive.This may be a bordeline case, because in the Bluetooth Specification

(page 20), assuming service level initialization via SDP is only

mentioned on the HF side while there is no such mention (but could

probably be implied) on page 21 for the AG.Fact is however, that the use of SDP features value for peer_features

is new since Android 4.2 and breaks existing good behavior on a BMW

2005/E46 car kit (navi professional). This kit never asks for AT+CHLD

and never via AT commands suggests it supports 3WAY (although it seems

to have the flag set via SDP).Also, having essential behavior (like making the connection or not)

depend on circumstances that may be prone to race conditions, may be

a good reason to not use the SDP flag also (or at least masking out

the 3WAY bit when using it).(An alternative approach could be to hook into bta_ag_timer_cback() and

when the timer exipres, but when also AT+CMER has been seen meanwhile,

to continue and assume a service level connection without 3WAY,

i.e. clearing the 3-way flags but calling bta_ag_svc_conn_open() anyway.)Change-Id: I95dcdc5f46e7af723a655afd3d707764603c96c3
