bluetooth phone mode

Hi Guys

Is anyone else also having issues connecting to their car bluetooth in phone mode using this rom?

I am able to pair as an audio device but cannot get my phone connected for receiving/making calls.

I have a 2014 Lancer . I tested it with a mates SGS3 with 4.3 and it works. Any ideas are welcome...

TIA

You could try importing contacts from your sim . recent apps works for me and yea there's a lot of sound distortion on high volumes :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] MANNSAAB:
Yeah i tried copying it shows no sim contact. All recent works ehen u double click the home key some time works some time not
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
Hmm . well then I hope the contacts problem is fixed in the next updates

Recent apps work for me properly always . p.s. it used to start Google now sometimes , but I disabled it and now its all fine :)

Can I uninstall Trebucher launcher? It is draining my battery. :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
Ah great then :)

Hmm ,I wouldn't recommend uninstalling that . rather , install " wakelock detector " and go through " CPU wakelocks "and " wakeup triggers " . it will exactly show you who's the culprit behind your battery drain ;)

Hit thanks button rather than saying thanks . hitting thanks increases the no. Of thanks in my thanks meter :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] meiyi2:
Hit thanks twice. :highfive:

Any other kernel to use?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
Forgot to quote

Haha great :highfive:

Well I have used Omega Kernel before , it used to work great . but I've not tried that with PAC man ROM . You can try that , maybe it'd increase battery life and stability :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] wajahebat:
I thought Omega kernel is for TW rom only? Indie built it for AOSP too?

Do you guys noticed the latest nightlies is just 4.9mb?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
That's a buggy update . don't download this update anyone !

Oh damn . yes it's only for TW . too bad

Call screen issues

Hi

Thank you for the great rom.

I am having only one issue till now. Whenever, I make a call, the screen goes off and does not wake up.

Can you please suggest some solution for this?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
There are only nightly builds available for i9500 . download and flash them :) that's my phone with the nightly build ;)

Hit thanks if it helps :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
Did you try pressing home button during the call ? It wakes my phone up during a call :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] king007khan:
Yes I did try the home button and every button available but no use. The screen never wakes up again and I have to restart the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] haltstaker:
If it's a ROM problem , a clean install would fix it . but Maybe you've a problem with your proximity sensor .

Did you try testing proximity sensor ? Test it with any hardware testing app from play store . Sometimes blowing air through the headphone jack hole also fixes it , if it doesn't get fixed than you'd have to disable it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] johamot:
Good ROM but

1. Bad battery live

2. Once the battery drains you have to remove the battery for the phone to boot again.

3. Bluetooth audio to my car works for 2 seconds and then cuts audio.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RoCorral:
That's strange never had better battery life with an AOSP ROM are you using the init.d tweaks? And modded the governor? And blocked wakelocks?

I get deep sleep and 3 to 4 SOT. Battery life with moderate use 16hs approx
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Jaydosu:
Can you please specify your set-up? Im running this ROM with Alucard Kernel, and im getting 16-17 hours of use everyday, with about 3.5 hours of screen on time. ive used this phone for over a year now and it delivers this battery usage regularly

Call quality

I am currently running the latest Nightly at time of posting 1/11/2014

Everything is perfect on the ROM except for my calls, When trying to make a call or receiving one i cannot hear anything and the person on the other side just hear noise, I then have to disconnect and redial then the call is perfect, very strange! ( I have tested and can reproduce the problem) If i get or make a call later on the process repeats,

Any fixes?

I have tried using the stock modem and i have updated my modem to the latest in my area.

Modem_I9500XXUGNF6.zip

please let me know if you need anything from my side.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Stroud Clife:
I'm having the same problem as Garethkungfu. I can't hear the dial tone when I'm calling someone, and when the line connects, the other side hears a lot of noise. I'm on 21/10 nightly. Each update since then that I try out seems to have this problem. Any suggestions please?

EDIT: I've updated to the latest modem for my region, but something is still wrong. At times, unable to hear the dial tone or anything else from the other side. What's up guys? Is it a bug? Can it be fixed..?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ttayyareci:

Interesting but my i9500 doesnt get hot with this rom... :) thats great but i have a problem... After the call it stucks on a black screen, buttons dont work... It seems like the phone thinks it is still next to my ear... :) Anyone knows sth about that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] sahilg009:
just enable lock sounds to fix the call issue

My experience with PAC ROM.

I have always been interested in this ROM but never had the chance to try it. So, last Sunday, I finally made it and flashed it according to the instructions. Then set it up to my likes.

The first thing that i found were stability problems when walking through the settings menu. It force closed many times. Way too much for my expectations.

Then i found that the profiles are not really working. That was strange because i am used to work with profiles and i use them in CM11 a lot. Whatever i did in PAC to set up the profiles, it didn't have any effect. That was disappointing and the decision point for not going further at this point.

I like the additional settings, especially the possibility to manipulate the cpu speed and not only the governor.

So, for now PAC is unfortunately not for me and i went back to CM11.

I will monitor this thread and try again whenever i feel in the mood. I just wanted to share my experience with you.

Kind regards
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Stroud Clife:
Why won't it work on mute? Every time I want to make a call now, I've got to take it off mute or vibrate. What's up with that? Is anyone else experiencing this? And is there anyway to fix it?

EDIT: Actually, it doesn't even work sometimes, even with mute or vibrate off.

No reboots here :D

What a beautiful work you guys did here.

-So far this is my bug list:

1. Unlock screen: when the screen is off it takes a second or two to turn on, it isn't instantaneous.

2. After unsetting the Auto bright system will begin to crash (lots of crash errors): at first it seems like indeed is frozen but later when you are taken back to main menu the UI and other several components will crash, I could barely Reboot via PowerOff menu.

3. SOMETIMES: Apollo crashes the system - actually, it makes it reboot.

4. Camera: I didn't expected it worked but I want to report that once I launch the Camera App the Menu and Back buttons stop working.

5. Sound Recorder: gauge don't work. The recording works (no sound corruption, etc.) albeit recording volume is far too low.

6. Play Store and the rest of GApps are missing: yes, I followed the instructions in the first post, will try reflashing them again later.

7. No boot animation. Maybe there isn't any at all because of the Alpha state, I can't remember reading anything regarding this topic in this thread - please disregard if that's the intended behavior.

8. Unlocking to Call doesn't work, everything else does.

9. The infamous external SDCard bug!

10. Call sound: glitchy, people say they hear me quite bad (I would say I hear them not okay but neither too bad, at least I can understand what they say, lol)

-What I Miss:

1. Haptic feedback! I miss it a lot for the Menu and Back touch keys!

2. A background image in Apps :P (I'm used to it)

3. Pattern Lock: is it there? Couldn't find it :(

4. Reboot into Recovery mode reboot option

-How do I:

1. Get rid off Google's search widget? (I mean the one that's shipped with the ROM)

-What I love:

1. EVERYTHING! Coming from a modified stock ROM (TW and friends) the wealth of options is overwhelming - and I love that! =_=

2. Speeeeed: Arrow's work on his ROM is truly good when you remember how crappy the device was when you first turned it on and had to deal with the propietary bloat with what it was shipped, now, you guys did MAGIC here! It's soo smoooth, beautifully smooooth and quick and responsive, just beautiful.

3. Halo and PIE! (who don't!?) ^_^

4. The wallpapers :D

5. The built-in CPUFreq/CPUPower feature.

6. Everything else, too much to name it all.

Can't wait for the final, stable release :D

HTH
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Akhil:
No reboots here too. Pretty stable.

One more thing I want to add to the list in the above post is that the PAC 4.3 is still in alpha stage as stated by the source maintainers of the PAC ROM that's why they haven't officially announced 4.3 which also implies for CM team. So my point is that some of the glitches and lags of the ROM are by the original sources(PAC sources) of the ROM. Once the original source gets to its stable state and is officially announced , this ROM will get more better.

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] First of all, Wonderful job.. No random reboots so far in 2 hours since I flashed this ROM..

I've found a new bug which never been listed here (I guess so)

Battery Bar shows WiFi usage is active even I kept WiFi off (See Screenshot)

Keyboards seems to be bit laggy, space and other buttons needs to be pressed twice but sliding flawlessly though. Space button one happens randomly.

Will post if I find new ones.

Pie, Halo & AOKP flavors functioning fine :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Akhil:
Yea wifi is active even if you switched it off. Thats a feature of 4.3 and not a bug. It uses very less battery.

BTW , this ROM has really got stable. I have only got one reboot in 24 hrs and that also when i just installed the ROM but since then i haven't got any.

This rom is awesome, bluetooth is working flawslessly (been using Sony MW600). Random reboot is not a big deal, it's only happening once in a while, only happens when I force closing an app or two, or making a quick transition between apps other than it's hardly noticeable that this an Alpha stage ROM.

PA Setting won't stick at first, but after some tinkering, just found out the culprit, it seems that I've lost the root when flashing the newest build, anyone expreriencing the same ? (flashed superuser manually from clockworkmod to resolve this issue)

I just have a question, since CM Team has already took out, "Advance Setting", is there any workaround to turn off the back light ?

Also the call audio is a little bad and a few random reboots

The ROM is smooth
