Or we can rip the APKs from CM12 and use those instead :D

Any news on when xsposed will work with 5.0?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
You need to flash the kernel after the rom because the rom comes with a kernel. When you flash the separate kernel, it overwrites the kernel that was installed with the rom. It should work anyway, with or without the separate kernel flash, you just won't be on the latest kernel if you don't flash it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] funkl3:
This is my first time flashing a 5.0 rom. Are we safe to use the SkipJacks method of battery saving on these roms as well?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] caloyzki:
Is there any way to lower the volume? Like flashed the stock volume. Its too damn loud.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
Yes, there's a volume button on the side! I had the opposite problem, so I tried flashing the moderate volume hack I'd used on 4.4.4 and it appeared to work, so you can probably manually adjust it down using the same method (I don't recall how, I think it's a build.prop modification). Not sure why you wouldn't just turn the volume down on the phone instead though.

Flashing the latest Googy kernel broke the lockscreen carrier name, not sure if it's a kernel or rom issue.

---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

Judging by what I've seen so far, you're unlikely to need any extra battery saving. 5.0 seems to run on hardly any battery at all when the screen's off, and no amount of tinkering will stop the screen drawing current when it's on.

dd?

anyone rocking this as a DD?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boybill:
I am. havent restored my usual Slimrom for several days. That right there says something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbm0329:
If this is to be believed, seems like there is a revision coming soon (Lollipop 5.1). Glad they'll be addressing how we silence our phones. Just go back to the way it was; if they want a 'silence all' option (including alarms and music), fine, just make that an option as I'm using the volume rocker.

n00b ? When I click the kernel link, do I click download as zip? and then flash the master.zip as the kernel? What you said has me moving in on this one fast...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbm0329:
I'm using it as my daily driver... using the latest Googy kernel (to increase the vibration, if needed, look under the miscellaneous tab in the Googy tweaks app). Enjoying the experience overall.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
You don't really need to flash the kernel, it works fine anyway. If you want the newer kernel, download the zip and flash it after flashing the rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bluejeanstv:
Ive been reading through here and it seems more people post about problems. Is this rom any good for daily use?

How is gps on this rom? I use my phone a lot with google maps, and i clock in and out of work with gps. I need a stable rom. Anyone use this longer than a few days?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
I don't know which posts you're reading. The rom is rock solid. The only drawbacks I've found are with Lollipop itself, which has taken yet another step backwards in usability, imo. Battery life is improved though. GPS works fine on mine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bluejeanstv:
I was reading how people have problems with lte and other things. I guess I will give this a shot. I'm used to using touchwiz roms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
I think those are people using a T-Mobile phone on the AT&T network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbm0329:
It's my daily driver; I'm on AT&T at the moment, but I'm switching back to T-Mobile (everyone can have unlimited data for the same price I'm paying with AT&T with a discount). Nevertheless, I agree that it's a solid ROM and any potential issues are from Lollipop itself. Have you tried HERE maps by Nokia? No data connection required. Same with Co-Pilot. You download the maps you want and that's it. Danvdh, Kryten2k35, Googy_Anas & Ktoonsez are great developers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BiggJurk:
It seems loosing lock screen and home button functionality is an isolated problem with only my device. I tried to install again today and lost functionality after restoring my Nova settings. Has anyone else restored Nova settings from 4.4.4 with success?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
Yes, I have, worked fine on mine. It may be a Lollipop issue, I've just spent some time sorting out a lock screen mess related to the new multi-user functionality which turns out to be a Lollipop bug.

There also seems to be a problem to do with SSL & certificates, I can't create a secure imap connection to my email server but unsecured pop3 works ok.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dandydon414:
Hi guys, if I flash this can I flash back to 4.4.4. will the new modem and bootloader work with 4.4.4? thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
You don't need the new bootloader and modem for this rom, I'm still running on MDL/NB4. So long as you don't change those, you can definitely flash back, you probably can anyway but I'm not 100% sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] H3adru5H:

I too am experiencing this. Tried flashing kernel after ROM install and still nothing :confused::confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
I'll fix it, we will go back to OEM for lollipop, uploading a flashable in a few min for you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
I never stayed on it long enough to see a difference, but as for the actual steps involved, you CAN still do it. Like I said though, whether there is an actual improvement I can't answer.

I too read a post, I think yesterday, mentioning that people have been having serious problems with the 5.0 ROMs. I didn't do any further digging into this, but from what the post said was that people are having problems to such an extent that it's requiring a replacement device. Now whether that's THIS ROM or the other one talking about flashing the new bootloader and all that (or even true in the first place), I can't say... again, because I didn't do any further research into the problem. I just counted my blessings that I didn't encounter any problems while running Dan's ROM or the Unofficial CM12 and was able to successfully restore my Danvdh 4.4.4. I plan on doing a little more reading on this when I get the time.

You should be able to as long as you don't update your bootloader. I'm still on MDL/NH7 bootloader/modem and I've encountered no problems either with running the ROM or reverting back from either the Unofficial CM12 build or Dan's GPE5.0.

The only thing that keeps me from using any 5.0 ROM as a daily driver is the lack of Gravity Box support. I use it to display the navbar and re-arrange the navbar buttons from the stock layout. From what little bit of reading I've done on the subject, it looks like there's a

possibility

it won't even be updated to work on ART. It's kind of a sad deal, but it is what it is.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NuShrike:
Thanks mate. Flashed. Looks good, thanks! [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION]

Still slight flickering, but not very noticeable now. I just manually keep the low-level a few clicks right of far-left to resolve it.

Don't know what's really causing this as it only started a few months ago. Looks like a refresh problem with the panel as in it's only updating the screen at some odd fps rate that doesn't completely get to the bottom of the screen.

Question

Is the GoogyMax3_GE-Kernel_1.2.0_CWM. the correct kernel to use after flashing this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spacemonkie4207:
I had this issue with my old battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NuShrike:
Even while charging?

I have a lot of clean USB power-sources including power-banks. The other true GPE i9505G of mine (same age as M919) charging off the same 4-port usb charger as this M919 does not have this issue, so far.

I'm using this rom as a DD so far. Googly 1.2.3d kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
clean your light sensor when you get the chance, seriously , vacuuum your ear piece after blowing it out with compressed air, i bet you its a piece of dust or dirt or something (these phones have this issue with the prox sensor aswell) that is confirmed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spacemonkie4207:
Yeah. Faulty battery. I'm not saying that's the issue you have, just my experience. Try what Dan said as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] juice_cazarez:
I envy you guys that got past the boot screen. I've tried different downloads. Full wipe and install several times and it freezes on bootscreen . then reboots into TW
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwgizmo:

_ UPDATE_

Update to the latest version of TWRP

I flashed the same .zip from the one that failed on me. After I updated to 2.8.1.0 i'm up and running.

Flash an updated superSU too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] srdryl:
J love your work... There are only two issues I'm having & that's advised reboot & my sms notification sound it doesn't work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NuShrike:
Can't be the sensor.

Here's a video where I covered all the sensors, and it's still flickering at the bottom. The rolling flickering is just desync between the camera and the phone's panel. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mu90sa9s4v4g1vn/201412181735.mp4?dl=0

I'll vacuum it later to see, but I'm fairly sure at this point it's not the sensor.

Still picture attached. That half-bright half-dark on the sun-bg is the flicker.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HampTheToker:
I've installed this rom as primary and as secondary using chenxiaolong's dualboot patcher. Neither one has given me trouble. I can only guess that it's a problem with the recovery that you're using. I recommend the latest TWRP.

Rom is working great way beyond anything I would have expected and been using it since Tuesday, but I noticed an issue that I cant dfigure out. If I use the stock camera that comes with the ROM, it doesn't offer an option to SAVE to EXT CARD only allows saving to local SD. I was recording video and ran out of space on SD and didn't figure out how to change this, any ideas? Other then this, I love this!

I appreciate all your work and development. I've been running your 4.4.4 ROM for a while now and keep going back to it.

I am having Exchange sync problems on both 5.0 revisions. Contacts just won't sync and I can't download any attachments. Its always one thing or another that google screws up with exchange every time they release a new version of Android.

Other than that I was loving 5.0 trying to get used to the new features, etc.

Is there any way to disable the charging LED?

TiBu was also not restoring all my saved WiFi networks. Just some. Must be again something new with 5.0.

Looking forward to Google fixing exchange so I can enjoy your awesome work.

Thanks!

One more thing.

Is there a way to disable the 5.0.0 ota update notification, while I'm still on KK? Thx!

Possible exchange patch submitted to AOSP https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/119493/

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblewave:
Yeah, the SSL problem might be the thing that makes me go back to 4.4.4, the cypher being used causes the handshake with my email server to fail. It looks identical to the problem with secure Gmail, when I switched my SMTP server over to TLS/SSL the only place I couldn't receive mail from was Gmail, everything else worked. There's a lot to like about Google, but sometimes I can't help thinking that they're just too big and powerful.

And what's going on with the LEDs on this rom??? They're about 10 times as bright, and the Googy settings don't seem to make any difference.

Sounds like you know more about why its not working than me. Wish Google cared about exchange accounts like they do their own. I had a very similar problem with my Galaxy Nexus when updated to 4.1.2 I believe. Didn't think pure Android would ever work for me again till I found Danvdh's 4.4.4 ROM. Too bad Google screwed it up again.

5.0 is new. I am sure the led will get tamed over time.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DangerIsGo:
First off: Dan & team, I love your work. I had the 4.4.2 update on my S4 and it performed flawlessly! Thank you!

I just tried the 12/17 update for 5.0 that you released and so far so good! At least on my device, there will be hiccups of slowness here and there so I'm not sure if that's attributed to the ROM or the device. Have this happened to anyone else?

I just installed the Hangouts Dialer (the most recent update) and when I'm covering the proximity sensor, I am still able to access the notification bar by swiping down (It seems as if it minimizes rather than hides) which happens all the time. This does not do this with the built-in stock phone app. My two coworkers have a Nexus 5 (5.0.1) and a Nexus 4 (4.4.4) and the notification bar is hidden and inaccessible like its supposed to on both of their phones but on mine, no go. Has anyone else ran into this?

And as far as a photo gallery, what I ended up doing was taking the Gallery2.apk from the CM ROM, copying it to the device, setting the permissions, rebooting and works perfectly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamaznX:

No real issues so fast on lollipop, noticed better battery life.

Btw has anyone noticed that a reboot does not clear out the recent apps list? They just load back in ram?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] doat:
Yea sometimes the phone will take a sec to react to me like opening an app or going home or something like that I assume it just needs time to settle in since I flashed it the other day. Also I noticed my battery does not last nearly as long as 4.4.2 did with that rom I could go an entire day and by the end of it I'd still be at 80% easily today i was down to 60% and I left work early. Again I assume it's the rom settling in or just need time to work out the kinks and improve the rom in general. I love it though I love how everything looks and the UI great work.

Which governor would be best for battery life and less lag?

You might want to take the proximity sensor/earpiece out and clean it. I initially thought it was the rom too. I took it apart and it was very dusty, cleaned it up and everything is working as it should. I didn't believe it at first but now I'm a happy camper.

From my own experience, GPE/CM roms use the proximity sensors differently from a TW rom.
