I have tried removing the battery for a longer period, but to no avail. Actually, battery has been out of the phone whole night.

I have tried different power adaptors, non-Samsung batteries, although I used the original ones during the last months.

There's no indication (led) of life.

I also thought bricking was impossible, after succesfully flashing roms for years.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] devilpera64:
I've to signal a bug:

Plugging telephone and shouting down, it rests on grey battery check and stuck. When i restart phone attached to the wall charge, this check is passed then is shown total gray-pixelled bar with battery percentage.

In other releases all was ok, and was shown correct battery charge animation. Seems now miss something :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] diddly3000:
God dammit brood. You keep roping me back in. I keep flashing omni, gummy,cm11,slimkat in the hope to find "the one" simply because I miss the custom tiles, battery percent and centre clock. But you keep making all those ROMs feel like ginger bread this ROM is that dam good. Going to install xposed and gravity box now and NEVER flashing again. ......until your next build ?????
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] torres76:
Beta 12 plus booster pack 5 is awesome no issues i have found using the things i need. Good job buddy........ :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] charli:
Installed beta 12 with boosterpack 5 and my phone is really smooth and I'm having great battery life. Some pages ago I read about some people getting slow download wi-fi speeds. It's weird because it's only download speed. I manage less than 1mb of download while upload works perfect at 10mb. You can fix it by changing the band from auto to 5ghz and then changing it back. The fix will be gone if you reboot but doing this is pretty quick while we don't have a fix. Just waiting for voip mic fix and then we will have the best rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Ah man that really sucks :(. really hope you phone is still recoverable. if not you can send it to samsung and they will replace your internal sdcard with crapwiz installed on it. but you will lose your phone for like over a month. :rolleyes: if you can get in download mode its easy to fix, but be sure to check an other battery besides the ones you already have. maybe they are broken.

I know this is like that for pretty much 75% of the builds. I don't know exactly why, but either way, it does charge, its just UBER UGLY. :silly::silly:

Hahahha, I'm glad you like my rom :D. next build will probably have voip fixed, I have got a commit from omnirom :)

Nice. glad to hear that :)

Good, yes I heard that idd, I guess both a reboot for the router/modem and the device is the best. Anways, I have the commit that fixes voip but atm it does not fix voip, so there is some small issue ^^, but its CLOSE!!! thnx to trading commits with omnirom ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cosenza1914:
Recommended modem? thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
none, you current modem is fine. I also never changed my modem and never got any issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
I see what you guys are saying but say I upgrade to a 16gb ram, won't I be able to then increase my -j paramter which will also increase my compile speed?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
No -j is 100% the cpu.

I use -j8 on my octa core and it builds really fast
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jakemog:
I just would like to be able to record videos in 1080p and @ 30 fps in low and bright light :)

And the only rom that can do that is stock for some reason :/

[MENTION=1698003]brood[/MENTION] what do you think about LagFix app? Trim is active on our device?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] droid_1989:
Is HDR working?

I've just tried to take a HDR photo, but isn't viewable in Gallery...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
Well that's not good to hear but thanks for answering all my questions! This will help me loads :D

One last thing, I currently use a core i7 4500U Dual Core laptop which is currently having 4GB ram and HDD. I usually run -j5 without any problems on it. You said you use -j8 but considering you have octa core I'm sure you can go well above 8. Is there a downside to using a higher -j parameter?

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

HDR doesn't work mate
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Idd its only possible on stock rom :S so lame

I don't think its really needed, there is hardly any lag :P and what exactly do you mean by trim?

No its not

Well of course your ram and hdd also play a role, but the cpu has is just the most important for compiling. And yes I know I can go way higher then that, (funny story, when I had a quad core I compiled on -j16) but I don't compile once a month, I compile nearly every day. always with backsupport of cccache ;).

Google says this:

"Build everything with make. GNU make can handle parallel tasks with a -jN argument, and it's common to use a number of tasks N that's between 1 and 2 times the number of hardware threads on the computer being used for the build. E.g. on a dual-E5520 machine (2 CPUs, 4 cores per CPU, 2 threads per core), the fastest builds are made with commands between make -j16 and make -j32."

running -j32 on a normal pc would kill it but -j16 is possible

compiling a kernel with -j64 is even possible, but when doing that for the rom you are a slave driver to your cpu ;P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
Haha, okay I see where you're coming from. Thanks for the info! :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Ozonep:
Running latest beta... Can't use any camera app, only stock one... Other cameras just start behaving in a strange way, when they focus to take a shot they freeze or something like that. I can make only one photo before that starts happening. This happens with latest beta of Snap Camera & ProCapture. Stock camera works fine.

Does anyone have the same issue?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
It's because kitkat 4.4.1 drastically changed the way the camera works, and besides that the Camera HAL is a now compiled separately from source, and next to that you have the original camera blob which is now vendorized. https://github.com/AOSP-S4-KK/platf...mmit/18038f09c756d61562e5e50e04cb3f177da01f8d

I don't wonder that it doesn't work, it's a miracle the stock camera even works correctly atm XD after all this hassle of 4.4.1's new camera implementation.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Ozonep:
LoL )) I guess it's that moment when latest (version of Android) doesn't mean the best... )) Too bad. I like Snap camera because it has option to set JPEG quality to maximum (minimum compression). Did you modify stock camera app to produce 100% JPEG quality, like Jamal did in his GE ROM? :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
no yet, but ill do that, nothing wrong with 100% jpeg quality ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] corb06:
Strange, I'm on 4.4.1 latest nighty and using snap camera. Works like a charm. Flash, hdr, taking multiple pics and so on. Even video recording works now with beta 12.

What snap version you have?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Ozonep:
Strange... I tried "4.0.4 test 2" version. It's latest beta.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mcva:
Unfortunately, my S4 could not be revived, so my phone is being sent to a samsung support center (Dynafix, Netherlands). Will be back to your great rom after a hard brick fix. Thanks for your work!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Lol guys thanks for the tip, by pure coincidence and probably some magic the apk suddenly was on my sdcard! How odd is that ;)

Great camera app, everything works :D

Oh thats really a bummer :(, anyways, +1000 for staying positive and returning to my rom after the fix :D:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] corb06:
Ok, im on 404- test 1...Not sure what can be causing this problem for you. I had real problems on Beta 11, then I could not turn off flash, sometimes it would crash and video recorder did not work.

Im running Dalvik runtime btw.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Ozonep:
Maybe test2 was broken. I installed 4.0.3 - and everything's perfect now, yeaaah! )))) Snap is the best camera out there )
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
is the the best camera i've tried for a long time, that's for sure :P. btw this just passed my mind, Ozonep in dutch means "oh so fake" :p but then without spaces XD.

O = Oh

zo = zo

nep = fake

Moral of the story: ""
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] joelvn:
Even though voip isn't working yet I keep going back to this rom. It's so damn smooth. So whenever I know I'm not using Skype for a few days I restore the backup I have of this rom to use it. And whenever I need voip I either use my tablet or restore the cm10.2 backup :p Awesome job on the rom. When I get back in Holland I'll donate to you!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] maximoz:
Ah got it!

Been using TW rom mainly haha.

Will keep this in mind.

Your rom blows TW out into the galaxy haha
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] scarmon25:
As for HDR you should be able to use the fix CM merged and get it working. That's the only advice I can offer. Although the HDR on it isn't the greatest anyway so not missing much.

Official CM 10.2 Jflteatt
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Good :p

Haha thanks, aosp is always better than TW (in almost every way, except crapload of functions in TW)

It's unfortunately not so simple. does it even work for you at cm10.2? for me it doesn't so porting from there doesn't help much.

anyways, its not the biggest problem idd, so can live with it ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] scarmon25:
Yeah HDR works for me on 10.2

And I agree. Its way down in the list I'm sure.

Official CM 10.2 Jflteatt
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jamal2367:
Welcome back broodplank1337 can you merge the camera and gallery Form supernexus i See this is working at all :p ...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
I just suddenly thought about the external/focal repo that I didn't have in my tree all the time, going to see what the result is with it included in the tree. hope hdr will work ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jusada:
Finally got this working as it should, all I can say is wow! Its so much better than the i9505g roms. The battery life is amazing and I don't normally notice that sort of stuff. The phone seems to stay cool to even using emulators, witch normally really heat up my phone. Thanks for your hard work brood, its a really great rom. At some point I will look at using it as a base for pa. Think with this rom we are as close to the nexus experience as you can get.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Nice job! Haha good to hear that, after all aosp is way less demanding then tw. tw is like a nagger that constantly cranks up the cpu or make unnecessary sensor actions etc. aosp 4.3 is really the "coolest" rom for the i9505 so far (imo). I have only be able to benchmark it properly at 4.3 aosp, all other versions became extremely hot or shut down the phone. In general the way aosp works is just way better then tw will ever be work.

You're welcome, I hope you enjoy it :). I will keep patching it until 100% fixed, but won't add any custom feature that doesn't belong to aosp.;)

Hope it will behave good as a rom base haha.

Google Edition size is really a joke compared to a real aosp build hehe. samsung claims their rom is the nexus experience, well it's not :p. this is more like it idd^^
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Me Gusta:
But your ROM does have this strange bug.. See? The apps are a bit unaligned.. Happened in android 4.2.2 GE as well, but it was foxed in 4.3.0 GE Does anyone have this as well?

Me Gusta!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] scarmon25:
The center of each icon is in the same place. Its the icon size that differs. Hence why they look unaligned.

Official CM 10.2 Jflteatt
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Idd this is true. and It would be very tricky to actually unalign them, way harder then aligning em :P

and btw Me Gusta, in the developer options there is a special option that's designed to check this.

"show layouts" (or something like that)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ram9200:
Anyway we can get this on sprint? I tried porting but don't receive phone calls and Google now location settings don't work. Maybe you could lead me in the right direction as this ROM is awesome. Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Have you tried just to port the rom itself? as in compiled form? if so you should rather compile it from source, I don't know how big the difference between jfltexx and jfltespr is, but if its not that big of a difference there is no doubt you can easily compile it for the sprint.

I think you will most doubtfully never get a second chance on compiling aosp so easily again. so I would grab the opportunity.

if you have a linux installation you can start downloading/compiling it, if you're on windows you will have to really port it manually. since this is aosp and the sources are available I really suggest you download it and add the sprint device specs and compile it. instead of copying mine :)

built from sources > port at all times ^^

my manifest also worked for i9500 btw. which is exynos. (only camera problem, thats all, for sprint its probably everything that works)

read the 2nd post of this thread for first instructions:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
lol just changed the jpeg quality of the pictures taken, from a poor (65, 75 or 85%) to a forced 100% the difference is incredible.

hope I can do the same for recording videos :). (its placed in Gallery2 package btw)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pokosik:
In tw rom you can use when flash is on. But it's supposed to be like that, or this is a bug? And final question, can I use this as a daily driver or there are some critical bugs?Any restarts, call mute or something like that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
camera + flash has always worked for me, and it does that now as well. (on this aosp). and I think it has something to do with a part in the code (this may be the gallery but also something else such as led regulator) where it just doesn't "shutdown" the led in a correct state and there for causing it to stuck in its current power state. (this might be absolutely not true, but I'm just doing a wild guess here :P)

And yes you can certainly use it as daily rom. it's probably even more stable then cm10.2 due to all the functions that cm is still implementing.

I have only experienced one reboot but that was when I had undervolted the stock kernel just to low. I ramped it 150mV down which is quite a lot for such a thing :)

Safe mode = 800 mV for min freq (if interested)

and now that you mention it, i have seen several commits about telephony (voip etc) and jf-common in general. maybe the fix is in one of those :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] maximoz:
Rom is smooootthhh, LTE works, WIFI works, battery is goooood, all apps I use works, so its more than good for me to use as a daily driver! :thumbup::)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Brotuck:
What is the big difference running this version vs the google edition released ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Thanks for the feedback, it's sure that it's done for daily use :) In fact, except the fact that HDR isn't working it's just better then the google edition rom. which is way oversized, secretly bloated with tw stuff and is 100% closed source :)

Enjoy the rom :D

well. this is actually aosp, the GE is just the whole TW framework but with the apps of aosp. (compare the sizes of both roms and you will notice)

Also this one is open source and is always modifiable if needed, the ge roms are not. (only smali reverse engineering)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Brotuck:
So the only thing not working is HDR now ?

I want to switch to full AOSP but really like HDR, do you think this feature will come soon ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gabx:
For those of you building android on their own box, here is a good tip as for using the right CPU number :

$ make -j 'nproc'

$ nproc -----> return number of processors

to build fast, use ssd and export ccache=1 (enable ccache). Create your ccache folder on your ssd.

Happy building

Hi guys, I have strange issue. After stop recording video my phone going into reboot loop. Only disabling Xposed framework (gravitybox) via recovery stops reboots. Could you please help?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gabx:
I am still on 4.3.1 and don't know why (and didn't want waste too much time to investigate or break as it is not my phone) but until now installing 4.4 was not a real success.

I tried today beta 12, booted fine to it and everything was OK, except NO WIFI. I can not turn On wifi in the settings,

Did I miss something ?

Thank you for any hint.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] rkaede:
i can only find version 3.5.3. which snap camera exactly? thx btw

nvm . google is my best buddy. :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chi Ahrens:
Haha. That's what I did. The b12 is pretty awesome. Everything that I use works. Batter life is phenomenal even in ART. When it first booted in ART, it drained 5% in like an hour just sitting there. I had logcat running, and there was a lot of optimization that was going on in the background even after boot. It's used 1% in the last 3 hours with me turning on the display to check the battery status every hour.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DuckMcQUack:
To all people using B12: is the bootloop problem fixed for real? I don't want to flash my phone if it still is there as i can wait 4.4.2.

Apart from that the phone works phenomenal.

Moreover: Is anyone else noticing that poweramp sometimes hangs after switching from different mp3s loaded from ext SD card??

Thanks all :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
[MENTION=4354408]broodplank1337[/MENTION] is there like way to build the rom WITHOUT the kernel? Like a command maybe?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
no, in facts it's required to be able to compile frameworks/av and all hardware caf folders, without the kernel you cannot even compile the rom.

you can build it once and then use the zImage as prebuilt, but there is no real possibility in skipping it without breaking the compilation

why would you want this actually? the kernel only takes a few min to compile compared to the rom that takes 2 hours (Without ccache)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
4.4.2 released, but believe me the changes are ****, not even 1 change in frameworks/base.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Masami1975:
Brood can you say the last issue left is voip?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ChaoticUnreality:
does that mean there is no point in updating to 4.4.2?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Brotuck:
So this means compiling with 4.4.2 is easy right ? ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
According to the commits i merged it should be fixed but I believe it's not..

No but still I want it, AOSP is always able to be updated to the latest version, so that's what I do :P

Yes, im compiling right now, and with the 3 repositories that changed it won't be hard.

look at the BREAKING changes :silly::silly::silly::silly:

Yeah Android 4.4.2 will bring a Better performance :)

Say Google :0

Thx for beta 12 running smooth without bugs ....:) THX

Wait for beta 13 :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
I was being sarcastic, actually this 4.4.2 patches nearly nothing, it has 1 tiny camera change, not even noticeable.

and some security patches it seems, but I don't really believe that since every security implementation always needs a change inside frameworks/base.. guess what repo is not updated , the most notable updates are the ones in the telephony (ril). https://github.com/AOSP-S4-KK/platf...mmit/068b98742e5015254da990c0c18b240eaeab021c

Anyways, build will be done in 20 min or so

Uploading right now, the file you edited yourself was correct, I think you just didn't flash it at all? since my boot.img was exactly the same as yours.

lol idd good you say that, ill release broodrecovery soon ^^.

Beta 13 Released:

Changes:

- Update to 4.4.2 (KOT49H)

- Fix voip issue, but not actually fixed..... (yes i know :silly::silly::silly::silly:)

- Force photo jpeg quality to 100%

Yeah :p You rocks !!! ....can i flashed booster pack v5 ???

Waiting for recovery :p lol
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Lither:
Beta 12 and Beta 13 boot.img is the same?

Also have you fixed the network issue?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] broodplank1337:
Yes. and lol will add a function that installs gapps and root so you never have to do that again xd

and yes you can use boosterpack v5, it just changes your android version from 4.4.2 to 4.4.1 so if you change that in build.prop its up to date

yes its the same, and I have no idea, please test the connection and find out^^

Curious if I need to have a newer boot loader at all or Anything of the sort or am I good to flash away? My last One was Knox 0x1 and was updated to 4.3 so just trying to check if I'll have issues before I reflash.
