The problem is that i have a full streght signal!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
And a developer can easily add UMS support to a ROM, which is likely what the CM team did. Stock Android does not have it, and since this ROM uses stock Android (i.e. GPE firmware) as a base rather than AOSP, it doesn't have the option. After reading the article through, I like the fact I can just plug in the S4 and access the files I need, rather than going into my notification shade, tap on the USB icon, and tap OK to connect. Accessing system files isn't that important to me, but I do understand how it may be important to you. For you, you'll have to install an app from the Play Store to get UMS back, assuming said app works on Android 5.x. Assuming of course the code isn't added to a future iteration of the ROM.

Is someone using the device encryption with this Rom? How is the speed and can i simply update a build by using the ota app or does this make problems in combination with encryption (no access to the File because its encrypted) ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] !crazy:
Tldr ; don't even try!

I would really like to have encrypted phone (not because NSA and similar reasons, it is useless for that, but because I have credit card numbers and some important passwords on the device and don't won't random tief gets all this stuff. It is not like they can do something with it, but I have to block all cards, business one, issue new ones, I would lose access to my cards for few days, and I need them since I'm leaving so that I'm borrowing money from my self all the time.)...

If you want encrypted phone, go for Samsung stock (at least based) ROM.

A page back I have commented my experience with encryption. Few pages backwards another guy did the same with similar/same experience.

Do not try to encrypt this device with this ROM, if you are not masochist, and don't want to spend hours in fix8ng the issue.

I thought I was prepared for the situation if things go wrong, and I was wrong. I did a nandroid with online nandroid tool, and this is another consequence of using new ROM. Online nandroid backup flashed TWRP over my boot partition, so I always ended in encoders when I was trying to boot the device. Afterwards things got worse because I was only able to enter Odin mode.

My old CM 11 nandroid worked and fixed issues issues with messed up boot partition.

Fixing data partition, which was messed by encryption was a bit more heavy for my nerves, because I was getting quite bad errors all the time. Despite errors I tried nandroid and it worked on the and.

Been menaing to ask for a while but .... the mobile data signal in the status bar doesn't show 'G', 'H', whatever beside it any more. This does show up when I pull the quick settings down from the status bar. Is this now 'stock' with Android 5 or is it an issue due to me always having the '!' showing because of my firewall? Having the 'G' by the signal meter was always useful, especially where I live.

Ta.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
It's due to your firewall. It shows for me 99% of the time.

What's the verdict on the new L Modem? Do you guys recommend flashing it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] niels97oet:
I also would want to know this. For example, I live in Holland and I want to flash the I9505XXUHOA7 Android L Modem/Bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Thanks for that. Asked the question really just to point me in the right direction to test. When the firewall is OFF all is well. Then I tried to enable it but with Google Services Framework allowed through as I'd read somewhere that that was the reason I/we got the '!' by the meter. This didn't work - still got the '!' and no 'G'.

I then disabled GSF again but this time enabled the service that starts with 'DigitalPenSDK' as the first item in the list. See screenshot. So, not sure what part exactly of that list is making the wifi and mobile data signal show that they are "connected" (and thus giving me back my 3G icon text) but at least I get them now.

I'm using AFWall+ BTW. Maybe this will help others.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Flashed them yesterday and they work fine for me (Vodafone in the UK).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] niels97oet:
Allright thanks! And where can I get them? From official leak zip? Do you have a link/upload?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Take a look on the S4 modems thread. They weren't on the first page AFAIK, I had a link from another thread that went straight to the post but when I downloaded them I didn't keep the link. Sorry. But I'm sure a 'search' will pick it up.

That's been explained a few pages back:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] N3ptuNe:
I have a major issue with this ROM which wasn’t addressed in both of my other posts.

The major issue I am faced with is, the ROM is fast, clean etc etc, but the encryption breaks the ROM! The encryption does not work at all!!!

I have tried more than enough times that it’s exhausting. All 3 kernels have corrupted Encryption settings. On a clean, un-fragmented fully formatted GS4 the encryption takes over 12 hours plus! And then will not boot into the phone.

Tried simple pass code, advanced pass code, simple pin, simple pattern. Taking the SDCARD Out, tested on a spare GS4 work phone after full wipe. The encryption is 100% faulty. I give up............. thought this was "suppose" to be a flawless ROM that's been tested"

It’s useless to me if I cannot encrypt it. It’s one of the flagship Google settings in 5.0.1 and I cannot use it for work if I cannot encrypt. The last ROM encrypted just fine.

This post is hilarious.

Your have in your signature a thing saying it takes 5 minutes to Google or search the thread... but you didn't do that. Encryption isn't working on this ROM, or

any of the GPE S4 ROM

s (to my knowledge). It's been mentioned in this thread.

The only thing that is faulty here is you for having not done your homework. Encryption isn't essential nor is it used by 99.99% of the users in this thread. If you're going to make another asinine post like this, do us a favour and use another ROM.

EDIT:

As for being a flagship Google setting, total rubbish. The Nexus 10, 5 and 4 did not come encrypted with Lollipop. Only the Nexus 6 and 9 (which have hardware to make it easier to decrypt data). Google are backing AWAY from the automatic encryption.

Here's another GPE ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57793539&postcount=601

And another: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58021153&postcount=247

Notice Encryption doesn't work? Took my 5 minutes of searching to ascertain that information. So, like I said, the only thing that is faulty is you and your attitude.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] N3ptuNe:
I must be psychic. I knew someone who didn’t take their narcissist meds would reply, Like a bull in a China shop.. no brains..

If you read one of my paragraphs I mentioned the Encryption worked for the previous ROM from mid February.. So for you to mention it isn’t working on this ROM or “Any OF THE GPE ROMS” IS FALSE and utterly made up!!

In addition, if you continued to read further, I mentioned that it’s for work. Meaning it’s the works policy to utilize encryption, otherwise we pay for our own phone. I don't make the rules..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] murray42:
[sarcasm]

This rom doesn't work on my iPhone, the devs must be stupid, they should make it do whatever I want. I hate XDA!

[/sarcasm]

Actually I love this room on my S4 and it was part of what got my wife to switch from the iPhone to the S5. Thanks for all the hard work
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
1. You didn't mention February. You said "the last ROM". Could mean anything. Kitkat? Lollipop? Specific version?

2. I linked you to TWO other GPE ROMs where users were reporting encryption being broken as far back as December and January. I have never known encryption to work on this ROM.

3. You posted in a STOCK ROM thread stating the same thing, that encryption is broken. Here you are, two days ago, saying the same thing.

4. Check your attitude. Calling me narcissistic because I don't like your trashy tone in this thread? This ROM is fully tested. There are about 9 testers who do a great job. Encryption was shown to not work months ago. It doesn't work. Simple as that. No point in trying to test something that we know doesn't work.

Use another ROM. Don't come back here moaning about anything because I won't be listening.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] andyman_187:
If you need an encrypted device for "work" or whatever the hell it is you do, then go buy a device that does work with encryption natively. This is a custom ROM meant for enthusiasts who don't consider encryption a must have. Besides, what kind of dumb ass uses a custom ROM on a device meant for professional purposes? An enterprise device shouldn't even be rooted, let alone running a custom ROM. Go buy yourself a phone with encryption if you need a device for work and leave the rest of us who are actually grateful for the hard work the devs have done to get this ROM running beautifully on our PERSONAL devices (i.e. NOT for work) and GTFO of this thread.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
If you need encryption then use a stock TW and stop using custom ROMs, or keep using them but remain silent. If you want a specific feature then grab the code and develop yourself :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Sorry, but if your work require a phone with encryption then they should supply it. If they require you to have a phone full stop, they should supply it. AND they should supply all the tools/apps you need for your role. If that means you also need a personal phone because you can't use the work one, or you just don't like it, then you'll have to get one. But don't moan at the devs on here because a) they don't supply a feature that your employers want and b) you didn't 'search' the thread first.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] -Ric-:
What's the big deal with encryption anyway? What do people wanna hide? Their snapchat naked pictures? :silly:

About it being for work... Why would you be running a custom rom on a device you need to encrypt for work...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
When I run encryption on my Laptop, things slowed down massively, even though I use an SSD on it. Simply because my Intel i3 doesn't have support for special instructions to decrypt data quickly (i5 and i7 do). It wasn't unusable, but it was super slow

Our phones don't either. The N6 and N9 do, so the difference in performance on those devices is not as great as it is on our device.

Two things here:-

1. As mentioned, if you need a phone for work, they provide one.

2. If you just rooted a work phone and installed a custom ROM, tripping KNOX and the rest, you're going to be in trouble.

He got the deserved, meaningful lesson. Things you mentioned were just not needed, and are wrong. You know someone who knows his way with computers or what? Having a device without ability to administer it is just useless and wring. Running know instead of using real full encryption combined with open source is also stupid. But ok, smart phone world is a proprietary **** nowadays, I hope this will change one day.

---------- Post added at 03:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 AM ----------

I was using encryption on my Galaxy Nexus and it worked fine. Not everyone has same need for performance is another point.

Rooting device and tripping Knox is ok as long as it is allowed by your company. Running AOSP or CM with encryption on is definitely more secure than running stock with Knox useless shut. First you have code which is at least mostly open, encryption method and code which is examined, you can apply security patches much faster than when you have to wait for Samsung to release OTA update.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Ambient Display should be in Display Settings.

I'm not sure that's how Google Now works. It may be that you need the Google Launcher

No company is going to allow you to run a rooted, unencrypted, device if it may hold trade secrets. That's a fantasy you're suggesting.

Performance takes a noticeable hit on I/O operations in encrypted devices and, imho, I wouldn't run it unless I had to. But that's not a problem on this ROM, since it doesn't work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Kryten, why not nip this encryption mallarky in the bud and remove the option from the security menu?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] B3t4:
The "Wi-Fi Fix" is the LTE Modem, very poorly named in my opinion. So the normal modem is GSM while "Wi-Fi Fix" is the LTE modem, so if you have 4G/LTE I suggest flashing the combined tar.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] !crazy:
Security policies in such companies are joke. Same companies who Trust Microsoft, and Samsung while ignoring open source solutions. OpenBSD which is used on firewalls of security agencies and quite big companies (allegedly apple is/was also using it.) also allows root access.

Smartphones have much bigger security issues, and there is no secure smart phone at the moment, if only those companies would care. You have one or even two operating systems which run parallel to say android, which are complete black boxes, which have, or can have access to the while system, while self being insecure, b/c they are too proprietary, not audited ****.

Everyone also knows who are the only big players in game called industry espionage, and exactly these players are selling the security hardware.

So if you care for random hacker stealing your data, or thief seeing your pictures or credit card data, chose between useless Knox which leaves your user data unencrypted, and runs in a kind of a virtual machine, or just encrypt everything using standard open encryption algorithm, and protect both user data and company information.

There are other reason why companies won't allow random guy not to root his phone, like him/her not being technically versed and experienced, but that is another story.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Nimueh:
I've seen so many users here complain about battery life ... so I just had to share some screenshots of mine - personally I think battery life is AMAZING on this rom :victory:

Time on battery 86 hours.

3 nights (roughly 24 hours) on airplane mode.

Screen on 2 hours (1 hour of that just now running random Youtube videos to drain battery).

Wifi always on (5Ghz band), sync always on, location off.

Weather widget updates once an hour, 2 yahoo + 1 other email are checked every hour, Gmail is instant notification.

Viber, Whatsapp always running in the background, about 20 minutes of phone calls.

So yes, it's not really a high amount of use atm - but definitely nothing to ***** about either. The 1 hour of Youtube used about 20% battery, so in theory I should be able to get well over 4 hours of SOT.

I'm not able to put my S4 in recovery mode (same procedure as described above).

Any tips? Hope I can solve this really quick!

EDIT: I solved this issue. What I didn't expected was that this is a hardware and not a software problem! It was my power button that was stucked. I hitted my phone a few times on the table white the side of the powerbutton downways and after this procedure it booted up again...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benjamen50:
Leave it charged using a original samsung micro-usb cable and wall charger for 30 minutes to an hour. Then try again.

If that fails, try booting the phone to download mode, this is done by taking the battery out, then putting it in, then pressing the Volume Down + Home + Power button. Until the green text pops up prompting you if you want to go to download mode, select the option to enter it and tell me if that works. If yes, you can look on google on instructions on how to flash firmware onto your phone.
