[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] imattacus:
I'm currently using the Final R4 version of this ROM, first off thanks so much for making this, great ROM!

But now I'm looking to update to the newest version. Can i just download it and flash it on top of what's already on my phone or do I need to wipe all the data and caches first? I'm hoping that I don't need to wipe my data and that I can just flash to the newest version and have all my apps and files still there?

Is there any way to check what version of the ROM I'm currently using in the android settings menu as the only way I can be sure right now is because the last ROM i downloaded with google chrome was the R4 final version.

Many thanks, hopefully somebody can help! :)

I would never, n e v e r update my bootloader, only for charging while phone is off. Its a bad deal i would say.

Does someone has an call recorder that works with this rom?

I am on stock rom 4.4.2 (UFNA5 leak), rooted. New bootloader.

After a full wipe I try to install this zip, but it fails with:

set perm: some changes failed.

Tried redownloading the rom and reflashed. Same thing.

Can I not flash this rom when I have been on stock 4.4.2 throug Odin? What am I doing wrong? Flashed with Philz recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tuniel:
Change philz to an older version or use twrp... the updater script needs to be changed when using a new version.

Unfortunately not, no. It requires TouchWiz to work. There are plenty of alternatives in the play store depending on which features you want to use it for.

You need to update your modem. If you mean I9505 and you live in Australia then flash I9505XXUEMK9. You can find this in the modems thread under the General section.

That basically tells you that you are using a custom kernel and not an official Samsung-made kernel. The only way to remove that warning text on boot is to flash an official Samsung-made kernel which would mean having to use a Samsung TouchWiz ROM.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] NuttyBunny:
If you are in a low coverage area you may have this as the phone has to transmit with more power to reach the cell towers.

It could possibly help with battery life although it all depends on how you use it. There is much less bloat in this ROM and hence less memory usage. Yes, you can go back to Jelly Bean no problem.

Wipe data / factory reset

Wipe cache

No need to wipe all that. Just system data and cache.

Since you said it happens when you open mobile data connection (I suppose you didn't mean Wi-Fi.) then it could be maybe helpful to try different modem. Does it happens only in area where the signal is weak? If yes, that's normal.
