SD Card bug?

I just discovered that SD card hot-swap is not working with this rom. I can unmount the card, I can remove it but when I insert the new sd card, it does not work. I need to reboot the phone (soft reboot is not enough). Anybody else experienced this? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Can anyone confirm or deny that when attempting to stream a movie on Google play movies and TV that "playback on this device is not supported"? I just would like to know if it's the gapps package , the app, the rom, or what.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Gibson99:
i don't use google play movies but youtube was very flaky/choppy for me, especially when embedded in the browser. it was generally OK directly in the youtube app.

i just recently switched back to CM11 because i'd had several instances of the phone just completely locking up and getting warm. screen off, not responding to power button - had to pull battery to reboot. i couldn't figure out the pattern for the lockups, but it did happen more often when i'd been recently listening to MP3s from SD card via BT, and also more often when out on the cellular network rather than wifi.

along with those lockups, i would occasionally simply not receive text messages. like my wife could send a text to me and then another to our neighbor (we're all on tmobile) and neighbor would get the text but i wouldn't. ever. it was very sporadic though - most times it'd be fine.

and it was very slow when trying to multitask - even switching tabs in chrome caused the tab to reload because it presumably ran out of memory or the memory cleanup is just way too aggressive.

i'm sad, too, because i liked what i saw in L, but most of what i liked was cosmetic, and CM11 just seems to have more tweaks available and to work better for me. at least i'm not stuck on JB or even GB!
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
Not sure. Flash movies seem to work okay with me, but I also installed Adobe Flash 11 (I have an apk, since you can't download it anymore off Google Play)

I'm using minimal gapps
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
I think i have found sweet spot with settings. One thing important to note is single core when screen is off kills voice on maps and causes hiccups when streaming audio.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Used memory fix zip file from link I posted on valadius thread. No more boot animation anymore but who cares. This is what's important.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:
Thanks for share, works great
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
Kinda scary, since it stays on a black screen for a little bit, but it worked for me. Had to put it in system/bin though. Not sure where the guy got the system/zip directory from.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
After about a day of use it seems oom goes back to critical. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I'll be honest, I don't understand your issues. I now get two days out of a single charge. 4.4.2 I got MAYBE 8 hours out of a charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Battery is ok. I am talking about ram, and more specifically the memory leak that is present in lollipop. Cm apparently put a "bandaid on it", whatever that means. Android 5.1 supposedly cures this, but is not released yet. Maybe the source is, but I'm no dev so idk.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:
I also have a great battery, but as chuck said is about ram, for moments its a little lagy and if you see process said always as low or critical about ram, no matter if you don't get nothing open.

Anyway it's a 5.0 known issue
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I noticed a little lag, but I figured it was because our phone is two years old. Well, hopefully there's a fix.

Any possibility we could get multiple vibrates on text messages? Would be super cool if this could be implemented.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:
I'm using xposed with a couple of modules and works fine, its still in alpha, maybe it works a module for that.

I hope it helps

Works on the relay on this rom. Just don't enable playback control. Volume will go up on its own after changing songs. Weird right?!?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I'm having odd issues with the GPS. I'm not sure what the issue is, but in both CoPilot and in maps, it'll frequently place me next to the road I'm on (in the current position) and then just kind-of freeze and not go anywhere. I'm not sure if it fixes itself, or constantly closing and re-opening the apps fixes it, but it's incredibly annoying when I'm trying to get somewhere. Only recently started noticing it. Not sure if it's because I'm running "high accuracy" mode where it uses cell towers or not (some areas I drove had no reception).
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Try clearing cache and closing some apps. This helps my gps 90% of the time.

Its been a while since I did this but the permissions 755 I think is important. Try using root explorer type app click on file and I think properties may show permissions. I forget but it's not too hard.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] gtmaster303:
This should be added to the OP for installation instructions. I wasn't aware of this
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HippoMan:
I'm eager to get a 5.x ROM onto my apexqtmo, but I have been holding off on this one (the only 5.x ROM out there that seems workable on this device), because of the inability to use TWRP.

I have a number of TWRP backups of other ROM's that I often switch between, and sadly, going back and forth between TWRP and CWM is prohibitively time-consuming for me.

Has anyone had any luck at all loading this ROM via TWRP recently?

If not, does anyone know if there is any chance that we will be able to use TWRP with an upcoming version of this ROM?

I know that I might end up having to bite the bullet and give up on TWRP, but I'm trying to delay that course of action for as long as possible.

Thank you very much for any thoughts.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Jax184:
At this exact moment it's not worth it to run this ROM regardless of what recovery it supports. It's a very good start, and I would love to see it polished up, but it's very slow and unstable. I've given it a chance and only been frustrated. I really hope that someone will pick it up and give it the work it needs to become a daily driver though.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HippoMan:
Oh, OK. Thank you.

Does anyone know of a 5.x ROM that works reasonably well on the apexqtmo?

.​
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I thought this one worked reasonably well, as long as you fixed the memory leak and weren't running everything at once.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Agreed
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:
I use this ROM daily and works fine, as they said before, fixing the memory issue
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] gtmaster303:
Been running this rom for a week now and here are my findings:

Everything works. Haven't come across anything that's broken (great job guys)

The phone does slow down a lot. The phone will not play music through headphones smoothly with the screen off. The music will judder and freeze. I'm guessing these have something to do with the memory leak that has been mentioned here a few times. Any fixes for that?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
The built in settings for the mp decision is set to 1 core when screen is off. I use trickster mod to turn this off.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
After about 3-4 months with this rom, phone slows to a crawl. Not sure what it is exactly, but I found this on 4.4.4 as well. I did notice that my internal memory goes from 2gb free down to less than 1gb free for seemingly no reason. I don't install a lot of apps, either.

Edit: After reflashing and reinstalling everything I typically use, it's back to pretty speedy.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:
I noticed the same, with every lollipop ROM, but with slimkat I have not this issue, I don't know why, but with a factory reset everything works fine as you said
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] gtmaster303:
This mod will help with music playback or general sluggishness? Occasionally the phone will slow for two seconds when exiting an app, waking the screen, drawing the homescreen, etc...
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Just for streaming music and such. Amplify and greenify work great tho. I do sometimes have issues w maps recalling google services for gps fix, but everything is speedy here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HippoMan:
Hi and sorry for the late response.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
am i correct in assuming this is the only rom in active development for relay?

does it have GPS issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I have a minor GPS issue that fixes itself anywhere from 1 minute from opening my GPS app to 10 minutes. For some reason it pinpoints me as being next to the road (always) and the GPS program can never calculate my destination.

Frustrating, but it randomly fixes itself after being on for a while. I have no idea why this happens or how to make it stop happening. It is my only qualm with this rom.

And "Active Development" might be giving it a bit too much credit. Last rom was built in February. I have free time and I'd be willing to take up a rom, but I'm a novice at Linux and I've heard this one isn't a simple build using the source like all the rest.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
well i'm using ingress, so i'm not sure how use of it to me, does this mean there are no usable roms for it right now?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I mean, I've never used a rom that was 100% absolutely free of errors. A minor nuisance is the best we're getting. This rom otherwise runs very stable and fast.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
the main issues i'm having with ROM of 4.4.4 (LS) is that after a while it becomes VERY sluggish as in it takes laag even opening the screen and i you have press the button again, just to make sure (only then you find out you turned it off again) switching between apps, glyphing in ingress is a nightmare, not mention laags in connections. battery warming up.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I've found I need to wipe and restart about every two months. Meh.

Stagefright - security issue

So now the Stagefright problem is out there, in the wild, and readily weaponized.

From what I understand, Google has fixed it for 5.x, but not for anything earlier, which brings up a few questions...

1 - Is cyanogenmod porting the Stagefright fix back to 4.4, at least?

2 - There appears to be at least one alternative ROM here that carries a version number of 5.x - are these really android-5.x, or are they really android-4.4.x made to look like 5.x?

3 - From what I can see, the 5.x ROMS announced here look a bit experimental. Are any of them ready for day-to-day use?

4 - Do the 5.x ROMs still have the GPS problem of the 4.4.x ROMs, and does the same fix work?

Fortunately my wife and I are unaffected so far. We have voice-only, and only do data through wifi, so we have no MMS. I was kind of hoping to change that this fall, but not until I have a fix for Stagefright.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] tomacco88:
I dont know much about the stagefright vulnerabilities but this rom has not been updated in months. Hopefully it gets team apexqtmo to make an update but who knows if that will happen. Maybe an Xposed module will protect us?

As for this rom its pretty good but im still having some troubles with memory leaks and random restarts.

Ive just fixed 2 of the memory leaks now. The boot animation one mentioned earlier and the colorfade one in this thread http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/xposed-fix-lollipop-memory-leak-t3065296 the latter seemed to make the bigger change. hopefully that stops the restarts too.

some other people in the thread have found the no signal message in the lockscreen annoying. this exposed module removes it =) http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-hide-carrier-label-t3041421

I was finding the "#" symbol in my status bar annoying whenever root was being used so this module got rid of it http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-disable-su-indicator-cm12-t3056432

The only problems im having now are:

-I cant save apps to SD "Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space." When i have about 63GB free

-When I recieve a phone call it can take a long time for the screen to turn on and display whos calling/let me use the screen to answer the call

-and I cant get gesture typing to work. ill probs just get a keyboard app or something

overall im loving it though. =)
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
I use Google keyboard for sywpe. Otherwise clear cache constantly and mostly all runs well. I think all devs have moved on, so this is probably as good as it gets for the relay.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Magamo:
Don't be quite so quick to think we've all moved on. Moved on from CM/FatToad, yes. Developing for the Relay, I'm working on something. -- OmniRom (OmniToad) 5.1.1 is bootable as of Sunday. Whole lot doesn't work, but it's a start. My dev time is quite limited, so it's slow going, but I intend to plod through this.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Grank:
two questions

I'm having some struggles with this one...

First of all, can someone point me in the right direction as to how to get xposed running? I would like to plug that memory leak, obviously, but I've never used xposed before, and I found some contradictory information and the xposed installer I tried indicated incompatibility. (Which is obviously the installer, not the truth, because xposed been mentioned a few times in this thread, it's just not clear to me how to go about getting the framework installed.) Should I follow a manual process? If so, which one? I would love for someone who has it running to send me a walkthrough link that they used successfully on a Relay phone, so that I can follow it with confidence that it'll work on and not brick my phone :)

Secondly, in addition to gesture typing not working on the stock on-screen keyboard for some reason (which is killling me), I've found it tends to pop up on text focus even though I have the physical qwerty slid open. This is new with this rom; it would always stay closed before whenever the qwerty was open. Anyone else experiencing that?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
There's an xposed thread that includes a zip file you install from within CWM. That's it. Fairly simple. The apk you install afterward.

I'm wondering if there's a setting within this rom to enable quick charge. I just got two chargers that support it and I'd like to take advantage of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Grank:
Ah, well that does help narrow it down somewhat. However, there are several such threads, and I'm not sure which one to use... The official, or the Samsung-specific? And it's the 32-bit arm, right, not the arm64? Could you link me to which xposed thread I should pull the zip and apk from?

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
Well after almost a year of being miserable on this rom, I'm back to CM11 and all issues I had with it have been fixed. It's a hell of a lot faster, too. Just a shame we can't be reliably on the latest and greatest.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] mcr314:
What specific version of CM11 did you go back to? My wife and I are pretty frustrated too.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] cucumbers:
FWIW I have switched back to the latest CM11 "nightlies" (even though they seem to come out more like once a month) and they are running just fine on my Relay. Way faster & smoother than anything ever ran on it before. It's my secondary phone now but I pull it out fairly often because I like using the keyboard so much :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
Forgot to reply. There's a nightly in November that I use because it's compatible with the Xposed module. I am not sure if later versions are, but I had nothing but problems with the December build.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] xdoza:
Hi mates! Anybody using the CM11 builds have problems with low microphone in recording apps (for example whatsapp). Call works ok.

Is the only annoying issue i have with CM right now. Tried both last stable release and nightlys.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Renae27:
Please excuse my ignorance, is CM11 a fresh build of sorts, or is it mostly a continuation of 10.2? I ask because I'm considering jumping in based on overheating issues I have been having with 10.2. 10.1 worked great on my phone but I could only charge it with 1 of my 10 chargers so something in 10.2 is not happy with my phone hardware, even without an SD card inserted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] :
yet another new gapps http://d-h.st/mDt
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] reaper000:
CM10.1 = jelly bean 4.2.x

CM10.2 = jelly bean 4.3.x

CM11 = kitkat 4.4.x

It's always a continuation.

However, if you're asking if it's a big leap as opposed to a step, the clue is the change in dessert name from Google, and the non-decimal numeric increase from CM. So, they consider it a big leap.

Unfortunately, there's only one way to tell if your overheating issue is resolved. And I too have many chargers, but now almost always use the most expensive one... Sigh.
