But I have one big Problem: I don't get network anymore.

It alwas says: Selected Network xx not available :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jwedda:
Left home early today for as longish train journey. Read a book, surfed, shot a few pictures and used whatsapp and hangouts a bit. Both on wifi and 3G/4G. I was careful, not updating apps it things like that.

Can't resist posting these pics. Amazing!

I would like to be able to reduce the brightness more. I'm at the lowest manual setting and it's still too bright.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Chikov:
I also noticed it, and sometimes I get an "unknown" entry in call log (and also above favourites) after I've a called a contact (not an unknown number)

The ROM is more than awesome... Stable, snappy and great battery life, only issue would be gaming (Asphalt 8) which I don't know why, but is smooth enough only with KT kernel and his own settings (ktoonsified v6), I'll wait for him to release a new version as the current one doesn't work well for all.

Anyway, thanks for a great great great ROM! :D

I don't know if I'm imagining things, but I think that on the 5.0 screen does not get the same brightness when at 100% compared to 4.4.4. Seems more dark.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jpovedam:
ok, according to you with this related?

I tried to listen to music with 3 different bluetooth devices and all stutter.

I understand that this issue is a nuisance.

After some days of use I can say this update it's very stable and smooth, but there is only a thing I can't damn understand: my battery life is not so well as some of you show here. I do a clean install on the last update 24/12 , set location off and I can't reach more than 2h SOT.. The phone seems to sleep good but when the screen is on battery go down very quickly and I don't know more to do.. Also whatapp is drain a lot my battery.. Don't know if I have to change modem or bootloader or kernel I only flash the ROM as it is.. Someone can help me?

For the rest nothing to say, wonderful rom :)

This ROM is perfect, but the battery life for me isn't very good. I did a clean install on the latest build and I get about 2-3 hours screen on time. I don't know how some users are getting nearly 7 hours of screen on time but please, share your tweaks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] javitolopez69:
Gracias amigo.tienes un mp
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] petrus764:
Those that get 7hrs are using extended batteries. I'm getting around 5hrs with the stock kernel which is a major improvement from kitkat. Wifi/lte/gps on all the time, never use bt/nfc. Manual brightness at ca. 30℅ and newest BL/modem/lte modem for i9505.

No issues with the rom itself, but there are a few lollipop bugs here and there.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] craizzz:
I would say 3 hrs screen time is normal with day to day apps installed. Add a few tweaks, change email to update every hour or so, download greenify from playstore, check other apps and reduce update/refresh intervals and you will easily see 4+ hours :D

Edit: as said above 7hrs will be on batteries with larger capacity.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] TasEsmuEs:
Excellent battery life with some kernel tweaks. Heavy use and more than 5 hours sometimes.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] robie_cz:
Hi,

I have bootloader and modems NK4 and the battery is perfect!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
I wanted to congratulate myself with the developers for the slightly reduced brightness (and saturation?) levels of the display.

The resulting image quality is amazing if compared to TouchWiz (much more natural), and while using apps like Twilight to filter purple-blue colors at night, I didn't get the usual 'black stains' anymore.

Plus, the reduced brightness also helps with battery life and I think that it did allow you to set a softer brightness difference between normal use and power saving mode, which is a very welcome feature: under TouchWiz I did never have that readability when under 5%!

You should be in charge at Samsung! Very well done! :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Funky-kun:
The Christmas version of this ROM is awesome. Battery life is superb - not 7h SOT, but 5h is realistic. And it sleeps like a baby - drops only 1% overnight!

There is only one thing that is bugging me, but I'm not sure if it's ROM or kernel related. Overlapping notification sounds cut off. Here is a demonstration:

http://youtu.be/wwzbKoJJ24s

As you can see in the video, when a Messenger notification sound comes in, it temporarily mutes the keyboard sounds. Changing NuPlayer to the old one doesn't seem to help. Needless to say, I did test it on a KitKat device, and overlapping sounds play without any problem. This might be a change in audio in Lollipop, or it might be kernel related. I am using the Googy kernel, so if someone using a different kernel can confirm I would be grateful.

Thanks a lot for this mod, it works wonderfully. Lighting up the screen on pickup is not super consistent, but it does light it up when a notification comes, which is what I'm after. Do you think it might be possible to completely disable the pickup detection, and leave only the activation when a notification arrives?

Does anyone have any idea where we can find the newest boot loader and modem files for i9505? Im getting pretty high cell standby battery use and i read I need to update the bootloader and modem.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] p3pp3mt:
So the only thing I didn't change are modem and bootloader.. I have to change them to increase battery life?

My battery drain 15% at night..

And I think there is something you forget because from 2h to 5h there is a big difference and I don't think it depend only for some app installed on the phone..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] haris2887:
I think there is a a bug with the google persistent search bar..

Second there is a bug with Bluetooth .. More specifically tethering does not work for me ...

..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] JoeyLe:
I don't use the included launcher so I can't comment on that. For tethering: http://ultimarom.com/google-play-edition-12-24-2014/ under "Issues".
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Sorry if you think I transgressed the rules but as far as I'm concerned it seems like a bug. For instance, I have an exclamation mark against my mobile signal icon but mobile data is off. In that case I would NOT expect an exclamation mark as there is no way to access the internet anyway. Plus, I've just turned wifi back on and can access the internet via my web browser with no problems yet the wifi icon has an exclamation mark as well.

But I've just been experimenting and I can 'ping' www.google.com from a terminal window so I can see it BUT .... I use AFWall+ and I see many attempts to access google services that are blocked but no details as to exactly what is trying to use that service, so the 'marks' being present could be down to my firewall. BUT I can access the internet so I don't care about them. So back to one of my original questions and does anyone have a definitive explanation of these new 'marks' (the links above are 'cut and paste' from journalists and don't explain anything really) and what software subsystem actually does the checking?

Ta.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] haris2887:
OK SO a question for you then.

Whats the best way to change the launcher. I want Nova Launcher but I dont want 2 launchers installed. Can I somehow unsistall the one that came with this rom and replace with NOVA launcher.

what Launcher are you using ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] richard-droid:
You don't remove the launcher. Just download Nova and set it up

as default.

Question to those on T-Mo USA with a M919 model: Are you getting LTE or 4g and do you see LTE in the status bar? I am in an area that consistently has LTE, but it does not seem to connect to LTE. I am on the fast.t-mobile.com apn which is for LTE, but it always seems to stay on H or H+. I am on the 12.24.14 version of the rom, with the latest googymax kernel. Great rom btw.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] JoeyLe:
I use the stock Google launcher. I'm not sure about removing the default launcher, Titanium Backup has a feature to remove (system)apps but I'm not sure if that would cause any problems. I would set Nova as default and ignore the default launcher.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Has the maximum volume been raised a little if compared to stock ROM?

Sometimes it happens that notifications sounds hiss a little, and I wanted to know if I could do any adjustments to prevent that.

Edit:

I found out that it's just WhatsApp sounds that screech. So I take back what I have just said about the sound tweaks.

Any help to fix the matter is still very welcome, of course. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Bartik168:
[MENTION=2292441]Galaxen[/MENTION]: I have the same problem. Previous version of this ROM worked without this issue.

[MENTION=5036969]TasEsmuEs[/MENTION]: Thank You for your help, it works but it is very uncomfortable to do it this way:(

[MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION]: Is possible to fix this issue? Previous version of this ROM worked without this issue.

Thanks guys!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Funky-kun:
I also think the sounds are a little too rough compared to TW. It turns out they are kernel-dependent. Alucard kernel had (for me at least) better sound levels, so I copied them and applied them to Googy kernel (which I presume you use). Here is how to change them:

- Open Googy-Max STweaks app

- Go to Sound tab

- Set Headphone Gain to 45, Headphone PA Gain to 12, everything else to 40

This way it sounds better, and there isn't any clipping when you increase the notification/ringtone volume to the maximum. Hope this fixes your problem!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Thanks a lot, I have just set the values according to your suggestion.

getting 1 day of battery life , smoothly, reached 4hours of screen on..

upgraded now , last modem and bootloader, for Portugal network, using the less possible, notifications off, localization off, mail and contacts sync all off..

my question is, i'm using only GSM network, thinking that is going to drain less battery, it make any difference to use 3g or 4g, in the battery?

i mean GSM to 3g maybe not, but 4G/LTE, makes difference right?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jwedda:
FNC9

Bootloader? Euhm, no clue

I basically Greenified everything apart from the apps that I really use, my social chat apps, alarm, mail and calendar.

I had set the brightness manual to low.

And remember, I was reading a book as well. Using FB Reader with night mode and brightness way low again. I was really going for a long battery life. And avoided everything that would increase consumption like downloading, installing apps, moving files etc.

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

Nope, just going for a good score. Reading a book is basically running at .5Ghz...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Now it's clear , everyone can have 3hours of screen on time reading a book , because the cpu work with a very low frequence + you have a low brightness too ;)

I can get 1 hours SOT with just 13% if i do the same thing .
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jwedda:
I think half of the time (roughly) or a little less was used reading. Took about 15 pictures, surfed a bit, read tapatalk etc. I guess if you only read, airplane mode etc you could get even more out of the battery.

Sometimes at home when I'm casting, installing apps, moving files on my network etc I can nearly see my battery draining so fast it's losing its charge...

Overall my feeling is that battery life is good with this rom. No surprises and consistent with my use. That's all I really want.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Exactly , this rom has a very good battery life :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] janii:

Guys, does anybody have YouTube playback issues?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] das_ouphe:
Tldr; ROM is great/awesome but lollipop is a step back from kitkat.

Thank you so much for your hard work but I'm going back to stock because of:

- unknown contacts in dialer

- general buginess of dialer, sluggish and prone to crashes, does not respond well when headphones are connected during calls.

- stuttering music

- sounds are sometimes distorted

- (very) occasional random reboots. Google problem, stock 5.0.1 on my nexus 7 behaves the same

- WiFi connections are handled worse than 4.4, switching just isn't fluid. Google problem.

- Switching between mobile networks and WiFi is handled worse than 4.4.

For the most part I blame Google. Lollipop needs to mature. They've made some bad design choices (like being unable to select wifi networks from the notification center) and introduced a number of small bugs. I really appreciate your awesome work, battery life is great, stability is great and this ROM is the fastest I've ever used. Unfortunately the combination of OS/ROM, kernel and hardware doesn't match TW stability on a phone that's *used* 10 hours per day. Typing this I feel like a bastard, keep up the good work, you're making a lot of people very happy :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] janii:
Oh, I was searching the settings all time, since most of the other roms I used had it there

Anyway, thanks a lot, got it now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] javitolopez69:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] duksin:
Yes, I did a clean.

-downloaded the ROM again,

-copied the zip file to the external SD,

-cleaned Davlik & system,

-flashed it, got 'successful' message

-and it boots into TWRP again

Is there a MD5 file missing?

During installation it says ' Skipping MD5 Check : No MD5 file found

Warning: No file_contexts

I guess it's the MD5 file problem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Not sure where all these dialer bug reports come form. It's 100% fine for me. Names on contacts. Not sluggish. Only issue I have is long-pressing 1 doesn't dial my voicemail, and I'm lucky that I get voicemail text notifications from my carrier, as the phone doesn't give me any.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] petrus764:
Yeah, same here. No dialer issues at all, it almost seems like those who get random reboots with the stock kernel are also more prone to other bugs, such as dialer issues, audio glitches, bt issues etc. My i9505 handles the stock kernel without issues and is able to run this rom perfectly fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
Not experienced any so far. What kind of issues?

---------- Post added at 11:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 PM ----------

This ROM doesn't have a boot animation sound. No Nexus/GPE devices do.

---------- Post added at 11:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 PM ----------

You can uninstall the default launcher with any app that allows you to, such as titanium backup. I have and there are no problems.

---------- Post added at 11:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 PM ----------

Changing the modem and bootloader is unlikely to increase battery life by that much. It'll either be a bad battery or some app/configuration causing the drain.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] duksin:
Ok, so I've flashed the ROM and it boots into the intro of the 4 colored dots rotating. It's stuck there.
