I have build my own Unofficial 2.2! :D

There is no ART obviously, but also the translations have not been updated although the changelog says so. I guess the changelogs got mixed with those from 4.4.

Anyway, 2.2 runs very smooth. :)

Do you mean the home screen icons? You need a different launcher like apex, nova or other and a icon pack. You will found all in the play store or in the theme forum here.

I love the ROM. Very stable (except for the issue below) and power efficient.

However, I am thinking about moving to something else because my phone (M919) gets stuck on the Samsung logo every once in a while.

I have tried both Build 1 and 2. Tried TWRP and CWM, but the problem persists.

Sometimes, the phone will reboot without any problem, but in approximately 30-50% of cases it will get stuck requiring a battery pull.

Any suggestions as to how to solve this problem will be SOOOOO much appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
Are you using a custom kernel? Go for stock that solved it for me, the stuck on boot was driving me crazy.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ferganer:
Thanks for your response.

No, I am using the kernel that came with the ROM. Are you suggesting I use the official Samsung one?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
Are you sure you flashed the correct Rom. You are posting in the i9505 thread but you mention to have a M919.

Make sure you flash the "jfltetmo" FW.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Nomad_:
Actually, the number 1502 has nothing to do with buildnumber. It refers to the time. I started compiling it at 15:02. As you probably know (having built it a couple of times yourself?) That's the standard name given when built.

And I'm also not having any problems flashing it myself. Nothing corrupt.. Perhaps you should disable any download manager etc.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] harise100:
Regarding the number I think you are right. Silly me. :banghead:

But the archive is always 119 mb no matter how I download it. It doesn't work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Nomad_:
119.58 megs are the right size. Works every time for me. (Flashed it twice this morning just to be sure :P ) Have you tried flashing it? Does cwm actually say "corrupt archive"?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
I tried them all and for me stock is the most battery efficient of them all. You will need to find out why your battery is draining. If it's an app not much any kernel can do about it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NightmareCC:
I don't think you have a kernel problem.

Please try to find your draining apps with better battery stats from xda.

Hey [MENTION=329570]malybru[/MENTION] may be you can enlighten me. You referred to the 2.2 Changelog. And I have been checking the SlimRom Homepage several times a day since [MENTION=5047159]Tylog[/MENTION] posted these changelog but there is no 2.2 build.

So was this just an info that users can build their own version 2.2 form the gihub or will there ever be an OFFICIAL SlimRom 2.2?:confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tylog:
There will be a official 2.x when it's ready ( I test it at the moment and it looks good ). At the moment there are a few small fixes on it before it goes public, after this there will come 4.4 alpha builds.

I will ask tomorrow for the 2.2 release date and will tell it here, for now it's time to go to bed :)

Tomorrow ( Friday ) in the evening I think I can give a answer.

no offence [MENTION=1599392]andr01d3[/MENTION] but is your phone on all the time? :silly:

it is normal that the display drains most of the battery, my Display uses around 74% of the battery but nevertheless my battery lasts two days (with facebook, whatsapp always on and 3 email-accounts snycing every hour)

Here are some of my settings may be it helps:

1. switch the darkslim if you don't use it already (black is always better for amoled-displays)

2. disable location-based services and use them only when you need them

3. set one of your hardware-keys to kill an app if you long-press it, so apps that you use seldom won't run in the background.

4. I've read about an "android-services battery drain" bug only yesterday, may be you have that too, check if your android services are at 30% battery consuption if yes that's too much. in that case nr. 3 should help a little.:D

and you can try BBS what [MENTION=1713619]NightmareCC[/MENTION] mentioned in case you know what it is, which I don't;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] __Miguel_:
Agreed, BBS has helped me narrow down power hogs more than once.

Also, I suggest Greenify: it freezes apps when you're not using them (you can control which apps should be frozen), which in turn helps to keep them from draining your battery.

Seriously, there should be an internal timer in Android that tells apps when they can and can't run (something like W8 - Metro apps can't just decide "hey, I'm going to wake up the CPU every 2ms!"), so we didn't have so many frigging wakelocks. AND some better coding (especially on Google's part, since their background services are the biggest wakelock-generating pieces of software right now on my device) wouldn't hurt, either: when the device is idling with the screen off, there is NO reason to keep waking up the CPU more than once a second (which Google Services tend to do, even when there is no data connection).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NightmareCC:
Yeah battery draining problems are rarely related to the rom or kernel.

Better battery stats helps you find apps which causes high power consumption.

When you find them try to change its configuration. Freezing it is IMO no good solution

I totally agree. In every 4.3 ROM (AOSP or TW) I had the same problem - huge energy loss, "OS Android" was drainig my battery 4% per hour. Until I figured out it's because of Google!!! This happens if I leave defaults when signing in Google account (I mean options that Google can use WiFi to discover my location whenever it wants to and even if WiFi is off!!!). I didn't have this problem with 4.2 nor with KitKat ROMs... I guess, it's 4.3 bug?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ishockzz:
Tethering don't work,the pc is connected to the phone via wireless but i can't open an internet page...what can i do? (Sorry for my bad english..)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] __Miguel_:
Well, the way Greenify does it is not the same as freezing the app completely, which is something I also don't like doing except on extreme circumstances (as in, when I simply don't use the app). Greenify just prevents the app from running unless when specifically told to, which is great for most apps that don't actually need to be constantly on (like IM and similar apps).

From what I've seen, there were several updates to Google Services when 4.3 was launched that seriously affected battery life (and not only the whole "let Google know where I am" thing). It has been getting slightly better, at least on stock 4.3 apps, but it's still the biggest generator of wakelocks on my S4, by a COLOSSAL margin.

Hopefully 4.4 and/or its apps, when they hit 4.3 and earlier devices, will rectify that...

Which reminds me, there's something odd with the current Slim Gapps: the inverted Google Music app gets updated to a non-inverted one as soon as you sync the device for the first time, and I had to clean its cache, and reset it to stock, twice, before I could properly play music files (they would be listed, but the app would tell me it couldn't play them, even if they were on the device). It's fixed now, but I still lost the inverted app. Can something be done about this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tylog:
Ok, here a short info about the 2.2 build, I have spoken with the team today. The only thing that must be finished are the new gapps , when the gapps are ready build 2.2 is going public.

I can't say a release date but a can say it's for sure soon. More information I can't give at the moment but when I have new information I post again.

When you do the builds for the 9505 is that the same build for all the other S4 variants? Minus the kernel of course...

In other words when Slim decides to rleease this for the 9505 does the 919 T Mobile version too? (And the Verizon/Sprint/Etc) Or are you working a special project just for the 9505?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tylog:

GT-I9505 / Nexus 5
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Skipjacks:
Are the builds the same? I mean I know there are minor hardware differences but is the Slim essentially developing for 1 device and then just making the minor tweaks to make it work on the others?

Or are there 4 different development streams occuring, one for each variant?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tylog:
The most S4 phones have not really a big difference, you can use the most builds from other s4 ( not the 9500 , this one has another cpu ) on the I9505 , only need a few changes in the build.prob and the updater script.

I hope this is what you want know? :)

GT-I9505 / Nexus 5
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Skipjacks:
Yeah I know they are all basically the same. I'm just wondering is Slim develops 4 versions of Slim for the S4 or if they just focus on the i9505 version and then add the variant specific changes.
