I aways do full clean install and never restore system app, system data or anything... :~(

EDIT: OK. I read the posts # 1, # 2, # 3 and # 5 carefully followed all the steps carefully, did not restore any backup (by the way, I'm not in the habit of backing up nothing) and still had problems with access root. Ask does not offend and solved the problem by changing the kernel. Just wanted to know if there is any way to solve without changing the kernel. But apparently I was the only one to have this problem, then the blame should be mine. Why would it be different? Thanks You

iB4STid, I've a great idea... those questions about bugs due to dirty flash, restoring non restorable thing, non reading OP or so... let us (good readers LOL) help you answering. I promise I'll refer all that people to OP. I can imagine how frustrating that could be as I'm only a regular user and I can frustrate with that lazy people, honestly!

We all who follow your work will try to give some peace to you, is that ok?

Please let know your thoughts.

Clarification Please!

looking over the flashing instructions for t-mobile S4. it mentions that 4.4.4 boot loaders are recommended. currently on m919uvufnk2, does this meet the recommendation?

Been Running it for about 2 Days Now with No Complaints Please Read the OP on the First Page Post # 1 through #3 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45170787&postcount=1

In the Installation of this rom it will give you the option to pick your carrier IE: your S4 Model

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] suck it monkeys:
Appreciate the replies, if some of you who replied READ my post you would notice that I did read, but was simply asking to verify that other people who have the boot loaders as I, have had success since the specific loaders are not mentioned. Thanks Louie and radoo for verifying.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rootuser11:
Do you use PIN code? If so do you know a kernel that has no problem with the pin unlock?

AEL and Imperium do not work

I have also thought of upgrading my baseband and bootloader to 4.4.4 but it seems like the only way to do that is to flash a full touchwiz rom via odin. If i have to do that id like to know if 4.4.4 bootloader is good enough to fix PIN issues

Thanks in advance!

I'm listening to my return voice in calls to fixed phones. What did cause this voice return?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] LouieBlu:
I personally don't use a Pin Code that is if your talking about encrypting your device.

I do notice a difference in signal and call clarity on 4.4.4 for the better, and I did flash the Stock Rom on Odin then used CF-Auto root to re-root my device

Here is a great guide to follow if you don't know it already

Sorry if this is wrong place to ask questions. Does daydream work in this rom? Mine doesnt do enything even I put daydream on and leave phone charging.

Edit: Ok solved this. There is settings where you have to select when to use this. Default is only docked.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GlossGhost:
I have been using your KK version ROM and have been waiting for your Lolipop but now it's finally here and it's just as amazing as your KK one.

One thing you had removed from KK is the battery fully charged notification, it's not that big of a deal but maybe you could remove it for this one aswell?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rootuser11:
Right. Odin -> Root -> TWRP recovery -> TWRP restore is how I plan on upgrading the bootloader and baseband - but i have no other problem other than the PIN code unlock. If it is not too difficult, could you please set a PIN code for your lockscreen and then reboot the device to see if the PIN code shows up again on your lockscreen upon reboot or becomes disabled and swipe to unlock comes back?

Thanks in advance!

I want to flash this ROM and also the modem and boot loader so what shall I flash first ROM or modem and boot loader?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] LouieBlu:
Ok I tried it and it goes back to Swipe unlock, so it is not working on this Rom, this is the first glitch I have come across, but maybe in later updates it should be fixed, its something to ask iB4STiD about.

Also I tried Encryption last night and it didn't work for me either it stayed on a black screen for 2 hours, I had to literally install my stock bootloader and baseband again from scratch Via Odin, then CF Auto Root, Then TWRP Recovery, Then Reinstalled this Rom.

So if anyone is planning on trying this encryption or the unlock pin on your lockscreen, it didn't work, you can try on your own devices but now you know on my device which is the SGH-M919 it wouldn't work, so proceed with caution, for me I don't use Encryption and the Unlock Pin for the Lockscreen is NOT an Issue for me.

This Rom so far is the best one I have tried and I'm sticking with it
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mrbluesman:
Pin code will work if you update to a lollipop bootloader
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] radoo7701:
The T-mobile S4 (SGH-M919) has not received Lollipop update yet.

I too have this issue, but it's not a big deal compared to the stability you get from an iB4 rom. :thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rootuser11:
Thanks. Given that 4.4.4 bootloader is the latest one for tmobile variant and that I was on 4.4.2 i wondered if upgrading to 4.4.4 would fix the pin code issue. I guess not.

I will wait for the 5.0 bootloader and I also like the rom. I just hope some bypass measures may be adopted by the OP though.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] LouieBlu:
Reading the OP on the first page myself it says that if you use the Wanam Kernel it resolves the issue of the Pin Lock, I don't have a link for that Kernel but I will look around for it unless someone can post a link to it,

I would like to try it myself and see if works on my S4 Variant, so you may want to try that as well

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jbbandos:
:( Unfortunately this didn't work as I thought it would. The hub from the samsung apps just shows something in Dutch (I'm in Belgium, no idea why Samsung won't respect the English settings of the phone or even use French, which also an official language here), and then allows me to close or to go the play store. The first time on the play store I even was shown another version of the hub, but with an error that it wasn't compatible with my device.

And kids mode still fails, claiming that it is temporary unable to download the installer.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] djdim:
i am using this ROM for a week now. Good results with antutu (had some restarts when running antutu the first times but now its ok) good battery and good performance.

Have a look at your battery consumption stats cause Google services was a huge drain until I changed some location settings.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] flipper2006:
Where can i change the CPU gov? In Lollipop i noticed Bluetooth audio drops a bit when not set to Intellidemand. I tried stweaks but it doesnt work for AEL, should i try Imperium instead ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hasan291:
AEL you need to install synapse

I switched from AEL to imperium, and felt that phone was snappier and games ran smoother
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] zednet:
What a nice ROM so far, its nice to see how far 5.X ROMs have come. I came from a Sammy 4.4.4 ROM and installed the International 50+ version and used i9505 options in Aroma. I have really nice performance and functionality and have not encountered any bugs yet. Well, I had to flash the Wifi-FIX in Odin, had to read the OP a few times before i noticed the links.

The only thing I regret is that I enabled "SFIND" because I did not know what it was and no google-search answered it for me. Turns out its some kind of Samsung search-button/app that is visible when u pull down the notification curtain. Completely useless given that the OS is made by Google and comes with their search aswell. So I wonder a bit if there is any way to remove that "S Finder" and also the Quick Connect button there? Rather without reinstalling, Ive already set the device up :P

I have no word on batterystats yet, will return with comments on that later.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
Exactly. ... you need install synapse to change any configuration in AEL kernel... I'm using imperium because it has voltage switch and AEL not (I can not find it in synapse)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] spencerchong:
do you mind explaining this? I saw the OP's little guide right after but I'm still confused. I am using a i9505 and the ROM boots and works perfectly, except the battery life is bad. If by flashing "the" modem and bootloader, your battery life has improved, then may I know what did you flash?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] flipper2006:
Thanks for information, im going to try Imperium. I'm going to try to do it without wiping since its the same version i shouldn't have trouble :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gavin01:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mgp53:
Thanks for your excellent roms! I currently am using your MD V1.3 on both of our phones. Great battery life and full functionality. I would like give GoldenEye a go, but I'm curious about the statement,

"DO NOT I REPEAT!!! DO NOT RESTORE /SYSTEM DATA WITH TB!!.. ". Does this also refer to "user app" data, like Skype passwords and other app settings? I know system apps would conflict, but would restoring just backed up app data cause problems also?

Thanks again..:good:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
You won't get past 4hrs SOT if you have multiple applications synching all the time. I keep sync on for apps like mail, WhatsApp, hangout etc.

Greenify apps to reduce wakelocks, location off and clean flash is what I do. I've a 3000 mAh battery and I get about 5hrs SOT with about 36-40 hours stand by. I'm using ael kernel with little underclock too. Hope this helps. Install bbs to find out wakelocks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] spencerchong:
I'm with you man. I get 90 min of SOT and the standby drain is like 2% every 15 minutes or so, it's crazy.

I use Greenify to hibernate Maps, Facebook and Facebook messenger. I use app ops to disable Location and Keep Awake for MANY apps including Play Services.

I even resorted to undervolting and changing all the governors to powersave. in fact I'm on KitKat GoldenFinger and the battery life is equally abysmal

Only issue i have is the PIN lock security disappearing after reboot, but thats been mentioned and discussed in OP. Cant wait for next version :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] lordodin912:
I have the 7800 version of the ANKER, with case, bought it on eBay for $30. Get about 13-14ish hrs SOT with it. Difference would be NFC really, ANKER doesn't support it, I believe, at least not this 7800 monster. Go big or go charge

Often facing lags in the app drawer. But it's on every custom or official lollipop. I bet it's a launcher issue.Same based roms with N4 or S6 launchers no lag at all.

I have greenify and location off and Wi-Fi off and a brand new battery. What governor do yoi use with ael and have you changed any other settings? I never know what I'm looking at in bbs

Do you ever use the phone for actual calls?

---------- Post added at 11:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

Glad I'm not the only one. I've had three phones and new battery's so i know it's not the battery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
I do use it for phone calls. As a matter of fact my last charge I got about 4hrs and 50 mins SOT with 1hr 15 mins on phone calls. The charge lasted 42 hrs with mixed usage in LTE+WiFi. I'm using conservative governor with 1644 mhz and fiops as i/O scheduler with 1024 kb read ahead. I also use app ops from play store to restrict permissions for apps. Hope this all helps. In bbs check if your phone goes to deep sleep or no. I'm thinking that some app running in background causing the battery drain. However with brand new battery you should get at least 4hrs SOT with 24 hrs stand by. At least that's what I used to get with my old battery before it went bad.

Attaching screen shot from latest charge with about 16%used only in WiFi.

Guys I finally got a solution for the Google Keyboard autocorrect function (red underlined words)!

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION]: I was wrong with my assumption that using an older version of Google Keyboard fixed the issue. I'm pretty sure it only worked as long as I didn't reboot my phone after installing another Google Keyboard version, that's why I thought I fixed this issue. However, after a reboot the red underlined words appeared again. So it had nothing to do with the Google Keyboard version.

I think the main issue lies somewhere between the user dictionary service and Google Keyboard.

However, as I don't use the autocorrect feature at all, here's how I successfully disabled this bull**** - even after a reboot. If you'd like, you can add this workaround to your main post.

Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice&hl=en

Start the app and scroll down to Google Keyboard and select it

Uncheck the service "AndroidSpellCheckerService"

Enjoy!!! :laugh:

My device: GT-I9505 international with original S-View cover (the small window as common for S4)

I Just upgraded to 50+ and followed every instruction as per updating the baseband/modem and bootloader, used TWRP and finnaly flashed the Goldeneye 50+ rom. It went smooth and i was happy but today I started noticing some major issues as follows:

1. Wireless charging not working when phone is on. When if's of it starts charging but keeps restarting, vibrate and shows

"KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

Set warranty bit : Kernel"

2. The "kernel is not..." message shows up every time I boot the phone.

3. When using a s-view cover and the alarm goes of, I can not stop or snooze since the buttons no longer exist in the s-view area. This was working flawless in 4.xx goldeneye.

Are these known issues that will fixed?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
EDITIED

so i dont "seem" like a jerk ;)

my advice is this .. when reporting battery issues.. first check which apps are using battery, try another kernel and follow the install guide! if u have followed the install guide and r still having issues, then i would suggest trying a different rom!

hope u sort out ur issues.. but i have zero battery issues or issues in general, i use this rom daily! good luck :good:

Im still rocking this ROM, latest one, LOVIN IT, but recently moved from vodafone to Three so i can have 3G data speeds, and my signal has many issues, i mainly have no signal in my flat, and now after changing my data plan from limited to "all-you-can-eat" (unlimited) i only get HSPA!!! i used to get HSPA+

I tested today to see if i could still receive HSPA+ outside of my home town and i can, but in my home town after changing my price plan like i said i cant! i only get 'H' and its max speed it like 0.3mbs !

before i upgraded the price plan to unlimited data i used to receive HSPA+ and used to get 6mbs download speed :( im hoping if i change back to a 4.4.2 ROM for official Three network and modem it will work properly and have good signal, but every network in the UK has the 5.0 update except three!

I did read the first post, read the installation instructions and a few pages in this topic.

also the FAQ..

But I didn't find the answer about removing al the bloat ware.

I choose the full installation maybe it went wrong at that step?

But if you are talking about the slim option that is available, here is Svoice, Splanner etc also in available.. (not removable)
