I keep getting cannot connect to camera after taking a picture with the Google camera. I installed no camera when I installed the ROM and installed the Google camera from the play store. Anyone else have this problem.

Another problem is I can't make calls. In call ui takes two minutes to open and then freezes. Any ideas
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] burco:
Yeah don't do dirty flashing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Nath5:
This was a clean install.

I just tried again. Re downloaded the rom, wiped everything in twrp and then again in the aroma installer. Booted up the phone, didn't restore anything with titanium just tried to make a call same problem. The call ui does come and the call is made but it takes about a minute and when the call connects I can't hear them and they cannot hear me. I am on the Verizon variant if that helps.

Thanks

Bug?

there is no way to change the default dsp, I'm using V4A but from the players the dfx button always open the rom DFX

forcing it to run over V4A, and if I disable the default dfx (freeze it) the button gives an error

in kitkat there was a settings option in settings/sound to pick the prefered dfx app

Audio Problems

Looks like my call problem may be a side effect of a larger audio problem. I am not able to get any audio out of the device ( tried youtube, play music, chrome ). Attached is as logcat of me trying to start a song in play music and one of me trying to start a call. This ROM is supposed to work for VZW right, don't want to be posting bugs if I am in the wrong on that.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] aliasif2010:
Yes the battery is charging well, However the charging time is increased & mobile warms while charging more then it used to.

Actually I am unable the find any other battery to test for a while to know for sure that the problem is with battery. I fully charged the battery & take it out of my mobile for a whole day & it was fully charged when i installed it back.

The problem is; if i insert the battery in mobile & let it stay powered off, the mobile still stays warm & battery drains quickly like fully discharge from 100% to 0% in 5 to 6 hours.

I think it is problem with mobile not battery. It looks like some thing is draining the battery continuously whether mob is on or off.

Guys i nave a problemi with screen mirroring on a miracast smart tv... Anyone else?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
I flashed the the 01-05-2015 version some time ago (one day before 01-12-2015 version came out). Didn't bother to change, seeing as the one I flashed works pretty well.

So far I only have one problem. Sometimes I receive a "background data disabled" error when trying to access google play. My background data is enabled. Global options as well as app specific option. I have to reboot the phone for it to work. But it doesn't work for long. After a while I still get that error. I sometimes also get an connection error. even though my signal is at max strength.

It's annoying because I have to always meddle around trying to make it work.

I have the international version of the phone (jfltexx). I have the latest modem, since I came from original firmware and did all the updates samsung had at that time.

Also, I have battery saver activated almost all the time. Might it cause this issue? If so, why does it work sometimes and other times it doesn't? I haven't gotten around to trying to see.

Anyway, would I be better off changing to the latest rom release?

Questions

Guys,

I have to questions: how can we have more than 1 1/2 hour with screen on? How are your configuration to get 4 hours with screen on?

I am in Brazil, São Paulo and I am using Claro. And I having some problems to use 4G with this rom. I tried to change the modem sometimes, but I didn´t have sucess yet. Can you help me to find a appropriate modem?:victory:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Use the modern that comes with your carrier firmware
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
You have already answered your own question. It is called CM12 theme engine for a reason, and this is a Google Play Edition ROM....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GuiCunha:
Hi,

First of all, did you install with full wipe? Easy way to get more than 11hours is hibernating the apps when device is going to in deep sleep mode. Try to use greenify and select the apps that you want to hibernate when the screen is off. My first charge with this latest build was this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58211172&postcount=15083 . Yesterday, i got better, 4hours and half and 17hours of battery. Im always using mobile data, wifi is only home ( :( ).

My carrier is TIM, Brasília, i flashed bootloader i9505vjufnb2; baseband i9505zhufnb3. Try this.

How to set button backlight timeout

At the moment you can enable/disable the backlight of the touch-buttons via the interface-menu. But when enabled the backlight lights up for 1.5 seconds only. I prefered to have the light enabled all the time while the display is on.

Here is a hint how to define the timeout for the backlight of the menu- and back-touchbuttons. The ROM is well prepared for a custom timeout:

You can simply insert a new database-entry in the system-table of the sqlite-database /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

with the name 'button_key_light'. The value has to be the timeout in milliseconds (e.g. 6000 for a timeout of 6 seconds). Use the value -1 to keep the backlight always on while the display is on. The value 0 disables the backlight.

I used SQLite Debugger from the Play Store to make that insert.

[MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION], [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION]: Would be nice to have this in the interface-menu. That would even make the current init.d-script for the button-backlight unnecessary.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
I'm not complaining. I described the issue to see if anyone else had it. Besides, I don't really want to change until the next release, because there doesn't seem to be much changed. Except for new problems. What if I change today and tomorrow it get's updated? >.< I'll wait I guess.

I know. But it doesn't work all the time
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] pika456:
Ok, lollipop has no settings for music fx. (should have, but lots of features are missing)

So the solution is to manually remove dsp manager and musicfx, and install V4A to priv-app.

After that everything work as supposed!

I think the problem was with the audio driver from cm. I used Odin to go back to tw then flashed this ROM now it is working amazing.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] seijisandrei:
I don't know why this is happening to you but I am currently using v4a on this rom (latest build) or about 4 times. Yes, because of some experimentation, i flashed this rom 4x and installed v4a 4x, and for 4x, it worked for me.

Try to make the effects in extreme mode, amplify more. Then on your music player, skip the track from the one you are currently listening. I didn't even need to change the build.prop or whatever. I use either play music or shuttle. I works for me, it should work for you too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dirkdigles:
With regards to notification sounds stuttering / popping / clicking (I have this issue with certain notifications; Whatsapp sounds occasionally 'click', the bell on my Meditation Timer also does, nearly every time):

Adjusting the dirty_ratio and dirty_background_ratio (raising both values) seems to help with this issue, but I'm not sure this is the proper solution.

I booted up my old GS3 and read the values there, and on our S4's with googy's 1.2.7.

S3 values, 4.4.2 TouchWiz:

Min_Free_KBytes: 3238

Dirty_Ratio: 20

Dirty_Background_Ratio: 5

VFS_Cache_Pressure: 100

GS4 values, GPE 5.0.1 Dan's, Googy 1.2.7:

Min_Free_KBytes: 2761

Dirty_Ratio: 20

Dirty_Background_Ratio: 5

VFS_Cache_Pressure: 20

The Dirty ratios are the same by default, however Min_Free, and moreso VFS_Cache_Pressure vary quite a bit.

I never had notification sound issues on my S3; could the issues some experience here be due to the VFS_Cache_Pressure and/or the Min_Free_KBytes values??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Achristocat:
Definitely. Phone can see the dongle, both units say they are connecting, phone says connected, but then they bot revert to "I see you" screens...

No connection...Any clues from anyone? It would be much appreciated!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
I don't know about the stuttering. But does the popping and clicking happen at high volumes or at any volume?

I had popping and click in notifications and some songs. Turns out it was because the speaker gain value was to high. Try lowering it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dirkdigles:
I'll have to check that! Thanks for the suggestion.

EDIT: I lowered it, from default at 45, then to 40, then to 35, then to 30. No effect on the "clicks"

EDIT 2: I've adjusted the sysctl values (using another app) to the following:

Min_Free_KBytes: 3072 (increased from before)

Dirty_Ratio: 20 (same)

Dirty_Background_Ratio: 5 (same)

VFS_Cache_Pressure: 100 (increased)

Seems to have had no effect. Running out of ideas.

Edit 3: Tried lowering Speaker Gain all the way to minimum (20). This seems to have eliminated the click in the notification playback. But now sounds are too quiet even at max volume. Going to inch back up and see if it comes back...

If anyone wants to experiment, this is the app I use (if you start the timer and then click "Stop," a bell sound will ring. This is what pops/clicks for me (usually about half a second after the sound begins there's a click). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nwalex.meditation

Hi Guys,

is it only me or the gmail app is pretty unreliable?

i'm on 1/12 version with googy 1.27 kernel

thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] yankoscage:
Correct. I can revert this ROM to 4.4.4 w/o issues (except if you're on a non Knox/older bootloader - you'll keep the new bootloader afaik). I CAN flash any modem and bootloader. The point is what worked for me was flashing the same version for both to get a stable connection and send to hell that s***** "Mobile standby" status, forever. :)

You don't need to flash the latest Claro modem/bootloader. Flash VJUGNI2 which is the latest Brazil (ZTO). This covers all operators. Search for it on the following link:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50965837

Second you on this! I could reproduce the clicks/pops using the same application/steps.

Modem and Dialer

Friends,

I'm on day 1 with this rom and I am having a couple of issues.

1) Dialer is very slow in terms of startup and initiating calls

2) When number is dialed it takes a long time until the call goes through and the phone rings

Feels like the modem is not responding very well on Android L

I am currently using Modem Version UGNH7

Any recommendations?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] exxi:
Thanks for the answers. In my opinion 5.xx roms are just not as fast as the good old 4.4 version. Overall I'd say the performance seems sluggish at best for all instances and operations across the phone. I'm in serious doubt if running L is advantageous at this early point in time.

It would be interesting to know what kernel tweaks you all are running to achieve acceptable performance on L...

Antutu yields a 27k score, not that it matters all that much but it's indicative.

Would love to hear your opinions, tips and tweaks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Seems like your phone is dud. Everyone else gets 30-31k on Antutu. The dialer being slow doesn't mean the whole thing is slow. Everyone I've spoken to about this confirms Lollipop is faster in just about everything for them.

I use every power saving trick within Stweaks and undervolt my CPU. No slow downs to lag for me. I can handle a second delay when tapping a contact in dialer.

LTE mode sticking despite Battery Doctor set to turn it off

Good day to you. I use Battery Doctor to set energy-saving modes at different times of the day. I've noticed that LTE stays on despite data being set to off. I'd be grateful for any suggestions towards solving this issue.

Big cheers again for this most excellent ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Z-Blade:
I would have to agree with Kryten. In my experience, Lollipop is definitely better in performance and battery life, especially after what Dan and Googy has done to it. Your Antutu score is low since pretty much everyone are getting scores around 30k-32k on Googy's kernel. Getting 3-4 hours of SOT is also the norm with moderate usage. On weekends I dont use my phone much and for me, I charge my phone to 100% on Saturday morning and by Monday night after work, I am usually have about 37% battery left which I think is pretty damn good.

A couple minor issues with the lock screen.... did search & couldn't find any previous posts, so apologies if this is a duplicate:

1. pattern screen lock and advanced boot options allow boot to recovery whilst phone is locked. A bit of a security concern for me.

2. Spotify album art stays on lock screen until reboot. Know I didn't have this issue on KK, possibly not on other GPE5.0, but have tried a few ROMs so cannot recall...
