well done,

no problem here on MJ7 ,

no reboot when charging.

Just meet a problem, when i woke up in the morning, i just cannot wake the screen up, i can see my led is blinking since i receive a notification.

i have to long press the power button, to restart my phone. ( will test it again today )

and wandering, if someone can confirm the IR blaster working, i dont think its working.

and 1 more thing, when i say "ok google on my home screen" the voice search just didn't response.

all the thing was updated, google play service, velvet, and google home.:confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rjrjzozo:
Using v4 since 2 days. With stock kernel included on the rom. No single reboot. No signal lost. Mk8 baseband and Knox bootloader. The only issue WAS the camera. Was hanging, or force close, even with third party app like snap camera. But after installing the latest Camera zoom fx, opening first time and was surprised that it updated the firmware of the camera. Since then camera became flawless. I thought that only stock tw rom only can update caméra firmware.

With first full battery cycle 3h SOT and 16h standby time. Undervolt -100mv, intellidemand with faux app.

Rom is smooth, everything is working, mic in viber, ir, exfat external sd mounts correctly.

Had not tested ART because of gravity box.

Thanks a lot for the rom.

True. Another option is to do Nandroid backup, then fresh install and restore apps and settings. This is the way I have done it switching from one rom to another with no problems.

you can adjust the animation speed to .5 if you want faster animation.

8 hours on battery and still 60% left. Looking good now! Had 1 reboot when unlocked but otherwise its solid.

Only thing I miss now is videos in webpages not letting me chose which video player to use. It goes to some default in browser player which is horrible.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] axiom:
Tried it. Phone got hot and rebooted. Reverted back to original framework-res and things are back to normal. I do however like the animations.

Also I had to use Aroma file manager to copy successfully.

If I'm not wrong, you can try installing xposed and then install the wanam/gravity box modules.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ernie1972:
You can set it on with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.kroegerama.android4batpercent, but it's "white on white", so you only see battery percentage below 40%. Otherwise you need a 3th party app.

Just to let everyone know. Gravitybox has now split to a 4.1-4.3 compatible version and a 4.4 compatible version. The orginal gravitybox available (v2.8) through xposed installer has disabled kitkat functionality.

The link for the kitkat version is available here:

You won't find it in the xposed repository as apparently he can't have two projects of the same name.

I've been reading on this thread constantly and it's getting annoying to see 70% posts about no network signal, [MENTION=3068641]jamal2367[/MENTION], can you please add in the first post that they need to upgrade their baseband.

[MENTION=285250]random reboots[/MENTION]: after more than 48 hours, i didn't have even 1 random reboot; flashed v4 clean (wiped everything), flashed MKE modem.

[MENTION=1007294]battery consumption[/MENTION]: in the first 24 hours it was bad ~9h of moderate use and battery dead, but was mostly my fault; after i turned off NFC, "ok google" feature and put gps on battery saving mode i ended up with ~16h even though i turned those off after ~5h on battery. I will test today too see how it goes from 100% charged. WiFi is always on + Live wallpaper.

le: sorry for mentioning this again but it's bugging me too much. The status bar is transparent but every time i start an app or pull down the notifications bar, the status bar becomes black. When i close the app, send the notification bar up or when i unlock the phone the status bar remains black and turns transparent after ~1 sec. What can i do so the status bar will become transparent instantly not after ~1 sec.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rogi19:
It isn't helpful if the same questions get asked hundreds of times, the thread is just getting spammed. About 20 other people asked the same question before you, if you would have just made the effort to click on one or two pages back, you would also have gotten your answer which baseband works good. And even that doesnt mean anything, sometimes you just have to try it out. I have absolutely no reboots on MK9 baseband while others do have reboots, so just try out what is the best for you instead spamming the thread please

So sorry to trouble you guys ..

I'm so very close .. much further than I got with CM11 ..

I'm on a UK I9505 on the Three network ..

My kernal is 3.4.0.-faux123-kk44-GE-Custom

My baseband is I9505XXUEMKF

Build

KRT16S.S005.13116

I installed V4 .. all good except ..

1. No sound

2. No Move to SD

3. Skype fails on call (that could be due to no sound ?)

I've got round the move to SD issue as I've used folder mount .. (my 64Gb is showing up but camera etc seem to be writing to internal SD if that even makes sense) ..

I've done hours of reading and the sound issue I think is the modem .. So I've tried lots of modems in XXUEMK9 .. no joy . [update > now tried MJ5 or MKE modems also] sourced from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192025 ]

IR blaster

hey guys, keep cool!

after about one week hard testing with jamal' s ROM - I can say this ROM better than you feel after reading so many issues as described on the last 267 pages!

In my opinion this ROM V4 is very stable!. After one week I found a very stable setup for this ROM

- IR blaster works!

- Xposed Framework works!

- GravitBox works!, at last with special KK version!

- no more modem problems after flashing XXUEMKF baseband

- no more reboots since use this konfiguration (keeps fingers crossing...)

all my issues and bugs that I already had last weekend (started with V1) are gone now! - and last but not least... all this addons were last weekend not yet available! -but now!

I just can say, as before with the 4.3 image, many thanks to jamal for that great work!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] pwwuk:
