safe to say I will note update GPE 4.4.4 anymore, I have a feeling users will run this even when Android L is live (I expect it to be buggy to begin with)

can't quite believe this battery life i'm getting

stock kernel btw, I use greenify on mostly everything except for Acdisplay and LMT launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GigDroid:
Can you post more about your greenify settings please, Dan?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] BakaB:
+1, i need that kind of battery life. jeez.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] macwindows:
+1. Yes, please would you share your greenify settings, Dan?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danvdh:
I greenify everything but my root apps really, Root explorer, titaniumbackup, acdisplay, xposed, gravitybox, LMT pie launcher are all left un-hibernated

I also use boost mode with xposed but that's the only thing I setting I change

I use AOSP email to check mail every 2 hours and notify me but thats it, also I find AOSP browser gives me better battery life then using Chrome but it could just be me, either way I prefer the AOSP browser anyway

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danvdh:
I have hangouts but it's greenified, I use it but don't need push from it / wakelocking in the background, so I just use the inverted MMS app in my customized edition because I think it looks awesome :)

and for the record, I use customized edition, only mod I use is "enable interface" flash zip

In your next build, would it be within your power to include some modifications to the dialer?

Namely something that turns off the Screen Auto-Off feature. My S4's proximity sensor is shot and I can't hang up calls, and in this newer version the "Hang Up With Power Button" is gone from the dialer.

Is there a way to change the auto-dim settings to be above 15? I'm still experiencing a ton of flickering when the screen auto-dims and want to set it to ~20.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duckredbeard:
Tried this ROM today but bluetooth freaked out on me. I had just flashed and restored all my apps. When I went to the car to set up pairing, I kept getting the pair request and a chime. The popup would disappear and reappear very rapidly. Even if I was able to select "pair" it would still cycle. Then it rebooted itself.

I had done a factory reset with dalvik, cache wipe. Flashed the customized version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dacheeze:
Just curious as to what kind of vehicle you have? I use it with a 2012 Kia with no issues. With a 2014 Dodge I have issues with the connection cutting in and out when streaming music. It is intermittent, but very frustrating when it happens. It did seem to pair correctly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duckredbeard:
I believe it was the cars fault. After restoring to a touch wiz ROM, I had to delete the phone from my car to make it pair again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
If you flash another rom you will always have to re-pair to your Bluetooth devices. I've always had to at least.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cantenna:
I routinely have to forget/unpair some of my blue tooth devices to connect. Some device I don't but have to force them into pairing mode each time to connect and then my after market car stereo auto connect with no user input from me without every time. It largely depends on the bluetooth decixe some are more finicky than others.

Great ROM for me, been using it for months
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
Just did a clean flash of the latest Pure Nexus edition of this ROM. Gosh, I just find it hard to believe that the bug whereby attempting sharing in Chrome landscape reboots the phone is still there! I have been told that other ROMs don't exhibit this bug, so I am tempted to infer that this is not a Chrome issue...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danvdh:
Then how come it fixed itself last time with a simple Chrome update from the market? then came back when Google updated chrome, wherever the problem is, I didn't do anything to cause it and I did nothing to fix it last time either

also, I bundled AOSP browser, I prefer it anyway, have you tried it? I just put that it landscape and hit share page just fine..

I am so lost when it comes to custom roms on my i337... I have done custom roms on a Nook Color, but for some reason I cannot get a custom rom to load for the life of me. I have bricked and recovered my phone 4 times now. I am on 4.4.2 NC1. I have been able to root using Towelroot. I have done the other necessary steps to get Safestrap 3.72 installed, and I'm able to get into recovery. Can someone tell me which rom will work with my particular S4 and if I need any additional files beyond just the rom (e.g., google apps or otherwise)? Will the rom in this thread work?

Works fine for me with the stock camera. I assume your flash works with a flashlight app? You might want to try with a different camera app like Snap and see if that works. I haven't seen this issue come up on this thread before.

Anyone here on Bell Canada in southern Ontario? I have a question about APN settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hitman9696:
I've been using this ROM for ever, simply fantastic.

I usually manage to find the solutions to problems I'm having on my own, but this has been bothering me for a long time, can't figure it out.

My phone is a Canadian S4. CWM recovery. Latest modem. I ALWAYS install a clean ROM. I'm on the latest.

I don't remember since when, I've been nagged with random reboot issues for a while. At first I thought it could be my Xposted/GG. This weekend, I re-installed 08/30 cleanly, all was going well. But an hour ago, phone was on standby, I press the power button, no reaction... ahhh man, to phone was shut down....

What could be causing this, when I seem to be doing things by the book? Do I need a different kernel? I only tried Faux123's version, didn't fix it either...

You mention i9505 users should install another kernel... The canadian S4 is not i9505, correct?

Thanks a lot in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
19505 has the same hardware as the i337 and i337m l. It's possible the kernels are slightly different. I know T-Mobile kernels are the exact same as i337.

You can install the last googymax or the latest alucard kernel.

Make sure you get the GE or Google Edition.

You will want to look at how to get the last_kmsg from proc should you continue to have problems and want to solve them..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hitman9696:
Thanks for the reply.

It's really weird. I've been trying to find a pattern to ID the cause of the auto-shutdown, but to no avail. Just this morning on my way to work. Pull the phone out of my pocket. Bang, it's shut off. Though 2 minutes earlier, it was running ok.

I remember the days of my old S2. Was using a custom ROM. Perfect ROM, but it had a conflict where if both the awake and sleep cpu govs were set to ondemand, the phone wouldn't wake up. Not saying it's the same here, but seems more like something along this line. I'm no dev at all, but maybe a certain conflict is happening similar to what was happening then.

In any case, I'll keep investigating. I'm happy that at least I confirmed it's not Xposed/Gravitybox related. And since I always do a thorough wipe/clean-install, I'm guessing I'm not far from a solution.

I'll try the other kernels, see what happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Bleedos:
I also have the Canadian S4 and never was able to get the latest builds running smoothly. I am now back to July 17th build.

I am getting 1 freeze a week but I can live with it! By freeze I mean that I pick the phone, press a button to wake the screen, it lights up but I can't unlock my phone. If I press the power button, the phone goes back to sleep. But I can't wake it again. I have to long press the power button to reboot it.

With the latest 2 version of this ROM, I am having the same problem but 3 or 4 times a day. I just can't find what's causing this. I may try it with no app installed to see how it goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] howlingmoon12:
I don't think it's an issue with the ROMS at all. I had the S2 LTE(Skyrocket) S3 and S4, ran stock on the first 2, only went custom since Dan released GPE and had those issues from the beginning. I suspected it's an issue with the battery, maybe a jolt that causes it to shift away from the contacts enough to shutdown. I have 3 years of logs and nothing showing a root cause at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Very possible. They manufactured a very high amount of the s4. I work in manufacturing and when a product is so high in demand that it pushes the machines and employees harder so you get more defects.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hitman9696:
Hum, that's very interesting. I never took the "hardware issue" seriously, but I can probably recall a certain pattern. Most of the times I remember it auto-shutting-down was when I had it in my pocket or in my bag. Though it also has happened when the phone was idle on a table. I'll investigate it further, thanks a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] howlingmoon12:
I can confirm that, despite having nothing that could hold the power button and inadverntly trigger a shutdown in my pockets, bag or even sitting on the table. If Samsung wants my patronage, they 're losing, might just swap to an M8 soon. I have yet to have a problem with HTC Phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hitman9696:
Thanks for the input!

The only reason I went with the S4 after owning the S2 is because of the extra storage option with the SD Card. As long as HTC, Motorola, Oppo, etc don't offer a 64gb option or include a SD slot, I'll have no choice but to stick with Samsung. I know Sony also offers it. I wasn't too hot on some of their models. Though I will give them more of a look next time I'm shopping.

For the life of me, I cannot fathom WHY, in an extremely competitive market, none of those other big OEMs offer anything suitable for the heavy storage users... I'm certain they all have lost many sales due to this.

Google has been hell bent on destroying local storage and pushing everyone to the cloud. Yet, the Play Market is full of 1+gb games, pictures are each in the 5 to 10 mb range now, mp3s, movies, etc etc... It's impossible to always use cloud... Universal unlimited data packages don't really exist everywhere, nor can everyone afford them if available... Then again, constantly relying on a data/cloud connection isn't very reliable and battery friendly...

All this makes me lose a lot of faith in Google... Don't get me wrong, I hate Apple... And whenever I was stuck using one (recently had to use my gf's while on vacation, she had an intl package from work), I was more than convinced of my hatred :)) ... But at least, since the iphone3gs, they offer a 64gb version... And no matter how much they push their own cloud services, they still sell the 64gb... Google on the other hand, 16 gb is apparently more than enough...

Bahhh, sorry for the rant... I'm simply dying to one day buying a 64gb Nexus... Let's see what's announced this fall...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
I agree, 16 (9.3gb) is not enough. I've had 2 HTC phones and they both had problems. I've had 4 Samsung phones and no issues at all. Every product has an assembly line and people make mistakes and robots malfunction (more times than you can imagine)

That's why they have warranties
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cantenna:
Storage issue on GS4 isn't an issue for me at all. I have well over 100+ games installed and a ton of applications.

1) buy large extsd card (I'm rocking 128GB microsd sandisk)

2) Install foldermount

3) install link2sd and create a secondary ext4 portion on extsd card, mine 10GB.

Now I have 128GB for game obb folder moves and essentially 18GB just for app data and best of all once link2sd is a set up and established TWRP backups are very small because partition is ommited from backup and you no longer have to use titanium backup when installing a new ROM, instead just go to link2sd options and click relink option, reboot and all apps are installed instantly!

The biggest offering over the nexus is its ability for external storage. This phone with this ROM destroys nexus!

Not trying to brag, just, storage lack there of is not an issue on GS4 with root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hitman9696:
I'm not sure sure if you caught it, but that's exactly my point. Storage options is the only reason I went with the S4, despite wanting to break my streak with Samsung. But if a 64gb Nexus is ever announced, it'll be difficult to say no.

Actually, it helped knowing there were GPE Roms being developed for it also. I can't stand TW. And CM has become unusable. Those guys have done wonders for the dev community, but with the complexities of hardwares and closed-source drivers, they simply cannot build anything stable, especially for Samsung devices.

I'm simply astonished how good this ROM is. We're luck to have a dev like Danvdh! Hope he keeps going forward with AndroidL... that is, if google/samsung decided to release it on the S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cantenna:
Understood. Yes, this is the rom i use, great ROM for me!

I had to move my wife GS4 to TW yesterday with Adam kernel. It seems due to her knox disabled NC1 boot loader she has intermittent WiFi stuck turning on with this ROM and most other asop & gpe roms i have tried.

Now i have moved her to a NC1 TW custom ROM with Adam kernel and this issue seem to have gone away.

It seems knox is getting in the way despite being largely disabled. If only I could downgrade her boot loader to MDJ.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] i31us:
With link2SD are you able to save the photos from the camera directly to SD Card?

TW recognises SD card and prompts to store photos directly to SD card, which is handy

An update since this quote: I removed the battery. Cleaned the contacts. Added a few layers of paper at the bottom of the battery compartment to further tighten the battery in its place.
