Hi all,

I tried flashing the latest nightly (cm-10.2-20130829-NIGHTLY-jfltexx.zip ) and got this message: "error executing updater binary in zip" and the process fails.

I'm using TWRP 2.6...

Is it possible that the file that's uploaded to get.cm is corrupted?
[Galaxy S 4 General] BillGoss:
Nothing wrong with the file. I'm running it. I always make a point of checking the md5 checksum.

And 0830 is the latest. ;)

Yesterdays nighly had the same problem but todays nightly (0830) worked like a charm updating from within CM (OTA).

I've been trying to flash and install the latest nightly (30 Aug) but installation always fails and I get this "error executing updater binary in zip" .. followed by "E: unable to mount."

Is anyone experiencing this?

I keep having the GPS cut out randomly. Sometimes turning the GPS on and off fixes it, sometimes a reboot fixes it, sometimes nothing fixes it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BillGoss:
I deleted the compass bug entry. I tried different compass apps and they work, so I believe the issue is with GPS Status.

Which, I've discovered, does eventually settle down and points to the correct direction.

[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
It might be your recovery. What recovery are you using? You should verify the MD5 checksum on the .zip, just in case it's corrupted. Try to download it again, and reflash.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Moosehunter:
I just noticed this in CPU-Z too. All the orientation sensors will go crazy, but will eventually settle down if left alone. Same With Google Maps.
[Galaxy S 4 General] aikwawa:
I am using TWRP 2.6.1 and the MD5 checksums are all correct. I've tried almost everything but I can't seem to get past the E:Error executing updater binary in zip part.

It is so frustrating.

I've wiped everything, updated a script in the updater binary file etc. But can't seem to get past it.

Can anyone help? :(

Here's an image of the problem I am facing
[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
My best advice: Use CWM 6.0.3.6 (Touch or non-Touch) or the version of Philz (and no other) because TWRP looks nice, but it's not reliable yet.
[Galaxy S 4 General] tomurbanowicz:
I've founde quickly 2 bugs:

1. Bugs wiht icons of shortcuts in lockscreen - when it is changed one icon, the other icons back to default icons (not custom).

2. Trebuchet - option without text of icon on home screen. After update the app that is on home screen, the text of icon appears.
[Galaxy S 4 General] aikwawa:
Really? I always thought TWRP is as stable as can be!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Pfeffernuss:
Well, no :) CWM is way more stable (doing these things).

Thank you! I will get the CWM for this.

Got a quick question though.. how do i install CWM over my current TWRP? Am i able to do it through Rom Manager? Or must i go the Heimdall/Odin route.

Also, I understand that my TWRP Nandroid backup can not be used by CWM, so I am wary..

Is there anyway around this?
[Galaxy S 4 General] _sebha:
You can install CWM over using your current custom recovery, or get sgs4 Flasher from play store and flash the .img file with it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] aikwawa:
Very strange, I downloaded SGS4 flasher and it says that my device is not supported, even though I am using the GT-I9505.

So I am assuming I can install SWMO using Rom Manager then?
[Galaxy S 4 General] qwertz1029384756:
You can flash it with Odin.

Keyboard

I install it (step by step has you say) .. and everything goes OK until it start for the first time, my keyboard doesn't work :-/ too bad, had to reflash to Google Edition ROM,

I would really love to try this ROM, anyone had this problem and find a way to fix it ?

(Sorry for my bad english :silly:)
[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
What do you mean when you say that your keyboard doesn't work? The keyboard works just fine, and there are hundreds of other keyboard options available.
[Galaxy S 4 General] rocksegolo:
I mean that the keyboard doesn't show up, it just popup a message and almost close it immediatly and it says that the keyboard doesn't load or something like that, will try it again later.

Bug in Camera app:

After taking a picture, exposition in camera locks and if you change the frame there is no re-measurement of light and a new determination of exposure - You have to switch off/on the application to take a picture without the locked exposure of the previous photo.

[Galaxy S 4 General] 9Lukas5:
I assume you have set the resolution to 1080p. Better you use 720p, then it shouldn't crash anymore.

I'm using ktoonsez Kernel and the faux sound control app and set the microphone gain as high as possible ;)

[Galaxy S 4 General] tomurbanowicz:
I checked in Stock - the sound in Stock is much better than CM.

Does the CM 4.3 camera have a Macro mode? I can't find it. There was one in CM 10.1. if I remember correctly.

[Galaxy S 4 General] okgnew:
Yes, I did a full wipe and I always use standard CM kernel. And still have random reboots. Looks like it's related to some service/driver failing to suspend and then on wake it crashes

USB Audio not working after unlock (BUG)

USB Audio works but when phone is locked (in sleep) and power button is pressed to unlock the phone the Audio freezes. The problem exists not only on current nightly but on the previous versions of 10.2 also. I checked the logcat but no exception is being thrown.

There is same issue in CM10.1.3 RC1 and RC2. I opened this issue on Jira Issue Tracker (the only way to report CM bug of stable and RC releases).

If they fix this issue in CM10.1, will solve it also for CM10.2, then you also comment in this Issue dashboard.

I also use this way, I setting camcorder microphone gain to 10, but in the Samsung stock rom the volume is still higher.

Should increase the gain a little more, does anybody know what is the parameter to be increased?

Practically the same.

We need other test only with S4, i had S2 with CM10.1 and there was not this issue.
[Galaxy S 4 General] tomurbanowicz:
My test is on S4. I just explained my post that You quoted about stock better than CM - it was to S2.

I have got and S2, and with issue there is on that phone - open audio driver on S2 has that issue:

Show two files of audio from Stock and CM10.2 on Galaxy S4 - it will be proof.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ciborio:
So this problem may be caused by the audio "open source driver".

I think that would be enough to increase a parameter to fix this problem.
[Galaxy S 4 General] tomurbanowicz:
But there is no that problem with S4, look again:

Silent song (Galaxy S4, RecForge Pro on both ROMs, default settings of mic):

[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
There absolutely is signal noise present in CM that's not there in stock ROMs. It's rather dismal. The sound stage and dynamic range is dead compared to stock, even with all eq and effects at zero. I'm a bit stunned by how bad it is, because I saw the same thing with the S3, but I blamed it on the lack of Exynos drivers, and I'm not a complete novice. I've been a musician for nearly 25 years and I have enough studio experience to say without reservation that there is a difference. It's not placebo.

You can compensate for it, to an extent, and bring some of the presence back to the sound, but it introduces more signal noise, flutter and distortion.

Not good. I've gone back to stock for a while to give my ears a break.

Very strange...

[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
It's gotta' be some missing codecs or something, because it's glaringly obvious.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ChampMEon:
Sure you haven't got the wrong thread here. CM10.2 for 9500 (unofficial) has random reboots.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jcasares:
I believe most of the users having this issue used Google Chrome Beta that in its last release has a bug that causes random reboots. Uninstalling it solved the reboots. So, it seems is not related to CM and I believe you can take that out, even when some minor reboots are documented on a CM's JIRA entry.

I don't see the compass issue that is being reported listed and I was able to reproduce it. It's almost unusable and even when you do the voodoo magic of calibrating it, after a little while you end with the same problem.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Piero88:
So guys just did some testing. I have tried GPS both on stock TW and CM.. Looks like on CM it has a faster locking with a less accurate position showing on maps, and on stock TW slower locking but more accurate.. Can anyone confirm this?
[Galaxy S 4 General] tapiov:
How did you evaluate the difference? I mean, GPS is quite dynamic with satellite visibility changing all the time. It would seem that in a case, you'd need to run several tests in different places and conditions and have some kind of measure to determine accuracy. Plus the software "features", what one software claims to be the location might not actually be it, i.e. what did you use as reference?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Piero88:
I tested it in various locations several times with a CM and a Stock TW phones. Speed and accuracy as I said were different on both phones. I can tell. Then if you want me to make a detailed spreadsheet with all the places conditions ecc... Now that's another pair of hands! But it was a statement as I could visibly tell those differences..

[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
This is the wrong thread. This is only a bug thread, not a Q&A or discussion thread, but the answer to your question is this:

You need to enter your APN either manually, or by the following method:

From a stock ROM, backup and restore your APN by using the app APN Backup and Restore from the Playstore.

You need to

1. Download the app

2. Convert it to System App by long press on it in Titanium Backup

3. Turn off the ICS Check in settings/menu

4. Backup your Stock APN

5. Install CM

6. Install APN Backup & Restore app

7. Convert to System App same as above.

8 Restore your APN.

Believe it or not, these simple steps are easier for me than manually installing your APN. I just keep a backup of my APN on my SD card.
