hi guys, is there someone using a 64gb microSD XC with this rom?

if so, can you confirm it is perfectly working/compatible? (i mean all the size available, not limited to 32gb for example)

I was thinking to buy this.. but only if it will work! :p

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Just loaded this ROM today and so far so good .... :D I have one of those exact cards in the post as we speak. I've had a 32GB card in my old Desire HD for over 3 years so far with no problems and all the reading I've done says that even 128GB card are fine. And see here ... http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9500_galaxy_s4-5125.php ... where it says ".. microSD, up to 64 GB ..". The only thing you (we!) have to worry about is getting a fake card, but mine's from Amazon direct so there should be no problems.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mk2media:
Sadly it's not cosmetic here. With this rom i plug headphones in, sound still plays via speaker and volume adjustment alters speaker.

Changing rom and headphones work so not a headphone or socket issue
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ritvars:
S4 supports up to 128GB SD cards. ROM is fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Edgio60:
Try installing Soundabout from the Play Store and see if you can get it to work.

Maybe try a factory reset?

I've read before that the S4 has a weird headphone jack and can be a bit funny with certain headphones.

There isn't another audio source running in the background is there?

Hi, I recently installed this ROM with a clean installation with goofy kernal but I keep getting random reboots. Any idea why?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] thedoginthewok:
I'm very happy with this Rom, except for one thing.

I constantly get a toast message saying "camera firmware is being updated. please wait":

I've read in this thread that I can flash a TW Rom and run the TW camera to update the camera firmware, but I don't really care about the camera firmware. I would rather just never see that message.

Is there anyway to hide that message so that I never see it? It comes about every 20 minutes and it's really annoying as it only goes away, when I open the camera app.

edit:

Just found Xposed Modul "Untoaster":

edit2:

With the Help of the Untoaster Logging app I found out that the app responsible for the annoying toast message was FactoryTest_FB.apk. I renamed it to FactoryTest_FB.apk.nope and now the toast message is gone and everything still works.

Does anyone know what FactoryTest_FB.apk is for? Can I safely delete it?

I just reflashed a stock rom, because I had issues with the vibrator, the phone shut down at night even when plugged, etc. I noticed something really strange, now that I'm back on stock Samsung, the in-call volume is way lower on your rom, and the audio quality too. It never bothered me while using it, but now that I hear the difference, it is quite shocking

If you use Googy Kernel with this ROM then you can increase the in-call volume. The voice call quality will probably be due to the HD voice feature that TouchWiz ROMs have. AOSP and Google Play Edition ROMs do not have the HD Voice feature, which is a shame.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Just noticed an "issue" that I also noticed with a KitKat rom on my old Desire HD. I have calls set to exit when I hang up. I, more often than not, go from the main screen to contacts app to call - then hang up. In theory the phone should then be back on the main screen. What happens though is that it exits to the last app I used before returning back to the main screen to make a call. Doesn't happen 100% of the time but often enough to notice.

Anyone else seen this and have an input as to why?

I didn't block any permissions, so it's not that. Renaming the APK fixed the problem and I haven't noticed any adverse effects, so I'm going to leave it like that.

Hi I have tried a few times to install this rom on my i9505. I have tried formattaing various partitions etc but on the first boot it is asking me to "Type password to decrypt storage". CM11 has been working fine on my device, even when reinstalling.

I tried enabling encryption a few months ago but disabled it and since then have installed cm11 with no problems.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Edgio60:
You definitely used to be able to, though I think after a certain modem version it's not possible anymore (the necessary ussd code *#0011# will no longer run from the dialer to enter service mode).

Not sure whether flashing an old modem, enabling and flashing back would work.

I think it was XXUAME2 baseband.

Guys, I'm thinking to switch from TouchWiz.

How is this Google Edition comparse to Cyanogen?

I want just speed, no graphical effects..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Edgio60:
OK, so I got it working! Here is what I did:

Downloaded and installed ShowServiceMode For Galaxy LTE from Play Store (£1.18)

Downloaded the Enable_HD-Voice zip from the thread above

Extracted the system/app apks only from the above zip

Cut and pasted all my original versions of these apps in system/app (you won't have them all) into a folder on my sdcard

Moved the extracted versions to system/app, changed permissions to rw_r_r for the following apks:

serviceModeApp_FB.apk

serviceModeApp_RIL.apk

SecFactoryPhoneTest.apk

Rebooted

Used ShowServiceMode to access the new, working service mode, then:

1. menu key -> Back (option)

2. menu key -> key input -> Q (uppercase q)

3. menu key -> key input -> 0000

wait 10 seconds, then main menu will appear

5. Press [7] DEBUG SCREEN

6. Press [7] WB-AMR SETTINGS

7. Press [1] WB-AMR ENABLE

8. Press Menu and then Back

9. Press Menu and then Back if first time didn't take you back

10. Press [6] WB-AMR Status, check WB-AMR SETTINGS: ON and UMTS WB: ON

Called my mum to check, haha

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mooyaart:
In my experience GE is a lot more stable the CM.

CM does have a few more features and customisation options that GE but you can get most of these back on GE by using Gravity box (Xposed).

Camera quality: TW > GE > CM

Battery life: GE > CM > TW (but it's different for everyone)

Bloat: GE = CM < TW

Speed: GE~CM > TW (different for everyone)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
If you want a rock-solid CM ROM, look no further than Dan's CM ROM which is M9-based, and up to now, this is the best base by far. There's none of this "new CM kernel" nonsense in with this little beauty!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
Then switch to this rom and once the Lollipop build is released switch to that.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MatteoB92:
I want the best smoothness and speed possible, I'm not interested into personalizations, and if I understand well GE weights less than CM..

However, for the modem how I have to behave? Can I flash the latest Samsung available?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] -sandro-:
The guide posted by [MENTION=4678169]Edgio60[/MENTION] is correct.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] FcukBloat:
flash this rom and when the L update will be available, update to L :)

this rom is very smooth, but miss some important features. you can get them back with gravity box. with xposed installed by the way, you will loose the possibility to switch to ART, that should give even more speed

the advantage of flashing a different aosp based rom (cm, carbon etc) is that you will get nice features without the need of installing xposed, this way you can have those features and also have ART

and for what I have seen around, all AOSP roms are pretty fast and smooth btw.. what is really heavy is touchwiz. like all the stock sw of other phones after all.. I got rid of it the first day I got the phone :)

right now I am on this rom, but plan to try again carbon soon, which was very nice too and could use ART with it.

I did'nt have to flash a modem separately with this rom btw, but my phone is pretty new, don't know about your case

---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

Make sure you cold boot into Download mode (power off phone, manually boot into Download mode - don't use the Reboot to Download Mode from power menu in Android).

Then, also make sure the "Auto-Restart" and other chechboxes in that area are NOT TICKED (such as repartition etc.).

Then proceed to flashing the modem, and once you get the green "PASS" message in the upper left corner, manually reboot the phone.

If you don't do these steps, you risk the modem not to stick after flash (weird and hilarious, I know).

Personally, when updating modem's i don't use Mobile Odin and i stick to this steps:

Reboot into Download Mode and connect to Odin (Run as Administrator!)

Untick auto-reboot

Flash Modem as Phone

Once you get pass, unplug USB and remove battery.

Wait few seconds.

Plug in battery and reboot to Download mode, Vol down + Home + Power

Plug in USB

Flash Modem as Phone AGAIN

Once you get pass, unplug USB and remove battery.

Wait few seconds.

Power on normally and check in Settings > More > About

I've done that without taking the battery off and it worked. Nevertheless, following those steps... you shouldn't miss it! :good:

Ok, it appears that most audio apps don't do track names, however Play Music pushes the track play time to my headunit, so some form of AVRCP is working. I'll try some more modems and see if I can get one to work with track names. I've tried ML6 and MJ7, and neither work.

This has nothing at all to do with the modem. For me it works (play time, artist, album, track name) with the ge rom but didn't with cm10 in the past. Also worked on tw.
