[MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION] I just installed CM11 to my wife's sister's S4mini and it runs like a charm!

Thank you very much for the great work and all your effort you put in this project!

She is so happy now. With CM she gets great battery life (1 1/2 h at 75%!!!) and awesome performance.

I just wanted to let you know that without defs like you, a lot of good handsets would just **** up!

Thanks again!!!

Camera Focus

I have the following Issue with the Camera in all versions:

When I switch to Autofocus Mode instead of Continuous Focus (needed to get Prefocus via shutter button) , touch the Screen once in Video Mode and switch back to Photo Mode, the Focus Ring stays white and the Camera is not able to shoot Photos any longer. The same occurs in CameraNext.

With other third Party apps touch focus even in Video Mode and Prefocus via shutter button work.

So I made an Experiment and copied the camera.msm8960.so from the Galaxy S4 (jflte) into my System and was surprised:

- Overall the Autofocus worked better, also Prefocus via shutter button

- In CameraNext Touchfocus in Videomode worked very good and smooth with Focus set to Autofocus

- No more Issues with Photo Mode even after using Touchfocus in Video Mode

- Face detection seemed to work Perfectly

Of course there are Issues with the "wrong" camera.msm8960.so:

-over- and underexposure don't work

-switching to a "forbidden" ISO Value lets the Camera crash

-stock Camera app crashes when switching between Video and Photo Mode

Can (some of the) the S4 Focus features included into the ROM for the S4 mini ?

In the Sources Face detection is forcefully disabled for some Reason ...

best regards,

lombartz

Speakerphone test...seems to be ok with mic top and bottom

03/11/2014 nightly,

after a personal test done with 2 phones I have to say that Speakerphone feels only a slight echo (I think normal for optimizing the use of at a distance). Occasional problems with the speakerphone at this point I believe are environmental issues.

I had the same feedback even changing "snd_soc_msm_2x" reversing the microphone from the upper to the lower...as suggested by arco68

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] jamus28:
I disagree. I'm using the arco's snd soc with ADC1 and callers are noticing a huge difference. I know the previous issues were not environmental because I had tested in many many environments, room types, and case on/off

I won't discount the possibility that it could be hardware related (slight differences/defects in build)

I know this is obvious, but did you restart your phone after changing the snd_soc_msm_2x file? Set the correct permissions?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Timir1972:
Hi, I followed the installation instructions carefully at the outset. However, after rebooting devices running CyanogenMod only startup logo and nothing. I deliberately waited even 10 minutes .... I installed the original ROM from T-Mobile. Where is the problem? Thanks for the reply.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] DeusEx80:
I tried the last file posted from arco68 and also for me the callers are noticing a huge difference (sound more clean and clear) with speakerphone.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Timir1972:
no one any idea?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] jukyO:
Cm logo or samsung logo you are stuck on?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Timir1972:
CM animated logo. Several times I install after a wipe repeated and the result was still the same.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] jukyO:
Do you use any custom kernel?

Have you wiped all except internal and external sdcard before flashing?

Flash ROM only, reboot.

Then install gapps and other stuff.

If that does not work, connect your phone with usb and pc.

Install adb and fastboot on pc, if you do not have it.

Do adb command:

adb logcat > logcat.txt

Power on or reboot phone after flashing ROM Wait for 10 mins. If no luck:

Provide this file for analysis.

Hi !

please ! someone can tel me if

ALL

apps are compatible with ART now ???

this new standard (and the only thing for the future for Lollipop , there will no have Dalvik it's finished...) is fully respected ???
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] jukyO:
I had no issues with any app.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] leripe:
Not all apps. Example some games, like angry birds epic.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Loulou-13:
ha ok ! thank !

it's very very strange !!! :eek: :(

because ART is stable really stable and fully functional ..... since "near" 1 year old ( Approximately 10 mounths ) ...... and Lollipop begin to be released

NOW

==> there are some devises sold with Lollipop ! it's the begining of lots of updates ! ....... and google have said that they have abandoned Dalvik ( "just" the ART !!!! ) :eek:

==> apps devellopers must absolutely work for this compatibility ! it become compulsory !!!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] leripe:
Not strange at all. For example big and small companies still use winxp. But keep this development thread clean of zitchat. :)

Focus Problems

Hi,

i fear there is a problem with the enabled face detection.

The camera needs very long to focus and the sreen freezes for 3-5 sec. during focussing when:

1. flash is enabled

2. no prefocus via touch on screen was made before.

Maybe the camera always tries face detection no matter what focus mode or scene mode is selected.

The only workaround is to use the touchfocus. I have this issue with all Camera Apps.

The Camera still refuses to take photos when:

1. focusmode is set to Autofocus

2. the touchfocus was used in video mode (without taking a video snapshot afterthat)

This occurs only in the two CM Camera Apps.

In other Camera Apps the Touchfocus can be used as well in video as in photo mode without any issue.

best regards,

lombartz

gaming performance

Hi guys.

After jumping from touchwiz to cyanogenmod and vice versa i decided that CM is awesome and makes the s4 mini a better smartphone.

But i have one small problem.

I play only one game on the phone which is minion rush despicable me.

While in touchwiz 4.4.2. runs very smooth with very few lag now and then, on CM11 is almost unplayable.

On touchwiz runs very smooth even on power saving mode which limits cpu to 1.2 Ghz while in CM i even used performance governor but with no luck.

Do you have any ideas or tips to improove gaming performance on cyanogenmod? (or at least on the s4 mini cyanogenmod)

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] michelsberg:
I had only one game installed, "Smash Hit", which runs extremely smooth here.

Now I tried minion rush and at first, all the pre-game, stuff-loading, short-clip stuff seemed indeed very laggy. But when actually in the game it runs pretty smooth and fine, I'd say. There's only one setting on my phone that I can imagine having an impact on this: Enabling the ART runtime.

To do so, tap a few times on the build number in "about phone", then enable ART in the developer settings.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] adipaval:
Thanks for the reply.

I already am on art, tried all cpu governors and 16 bit transpareny but with no luck. The game is playable for about 2 minutes.

Is fm radio working in this build? how is the reception?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] arsradu:
Yes, it does. Reception is awesome (of course that depends on where you live and depends on the selected channel's coverage area). For me, it works perfectly.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] andiroid99:
hy, thx for the rom, just got some questions:

is arco = seranoltex? why the name serranoltex?

is there a website of seranoltex with infos about the builds, changelogs etc?

if i look @

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_serranoltexx/commits/cm-11.0

there are not many changes, but there are nightlies, so, plz tell me, where can i look at the changes made for each new compile?

thx!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] :
Serrano = is the name Samsung gave to the S4 Mini platform.

LTE = Long Term Evolution, which means the device is capable of 4G.

XX = geographic indication, meaning the device is meant for sale in Europe.

You can look up changelogs of the nightlies here: http://www.cmxlog.com/11/serranoltexx/.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] andiroid99:
thx!! thats great info (i should have looked closer to the cm website for the cmx log. :) i always thought that mr. seranoltex was the one developer who cared about making the s4 mini compile :).)

another question: how to update to another branch when phone is encrypted? i just updated from one cm11 snapshot to another and used adb sideload. it updated and phone is still encrypted, but updated, very confusing - how can it update and leave the encryption but not ask for the encryption password when updating? or is it effectively updating only after reboot after the encryption password is prompted?

would this method work with upgrading to cm12 (cant wait ;)).

i read about a method to adb to a temp partition and upgrade from there, but in my recovery rom, there aint no temp and all the partitions mentioned in the recovery rom, cant mount cause of encryption, indluding ext_sd)..

thx
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] ericlnu:
The various names are the names the manufacturers give to the various motherboards. So like was mentioned, serranoltexx is specific to the European serranolte boards. Encryption affects the /data partition, not /system.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] :
I don't know whether it has already been suggested, but in order to reduce power consumption, would it be possible to get lower "min frequencies" than 384 MHz in the available settings ? in the official CM 11 for this device ?

For instance, 270 MHz and 162 MHz are also available for other Kernels... (and even lower frequencies are available on other devices)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] :
I doubt that will make a big of a difference if not worse. What really counts is the deep sleep state.

If you check the kernel sources you will see that the lowest stock frequency uses the PLL_8 pll, all the others use the HFPLL pll. I suppose that HFPLL is high frequency pll, if thats true using that on the lower frequencies maybe even be worse (at least one custom kernel that I checked uses the HFPLL on the frequencies bellow the stock 384mhz).

If you want less power consumption try undervolting. On my phone I've got mild improvements, but much less heat. I didn't want to risk it so I'm using -100mv in all steps but the 384 one that is on 700mv (PVS3 cpu). Just don't report bugs with undervolting applied or a custom kernel flashed.

Either way you will need a custom kernel or build yourself one from the sources with the changed voltage table.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] :
Humm, undervolting ? Why not... After all, I am already used to under/over clock my computer and/or my notebook. But for the phone, I have no idea how to be sure the undervolting is not too strong (I dont know any equivalent of OCCT on android)... and even if I sometime manage in changing few details in code and compile it, I have never done it under android/linux. At the moment, it is a bit too much complicated for me...

So apparently, for the low frequency, we do not use the same PLLs ?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] :
Nope. I think that the qualcomm engineers are not idiots and their best interest is to have the lowest power state for the cpu to idle, so in *MY* option the lower clocks are useless (not bashing peoples effort here! it might work but in my experience with other qualcomm based phones it made things slightly worse).

For example check out the source code of the f4ktion kernel, here is an excerpt:

static struct acpu_level tbl_PVS3_1700MHz[] __initdata = {
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_UNDERCLOCK
{ 1, { 162000, HFPLL, 2, 0x0C }, L2(0), 875000 },

{ 1, { 384000, PLL_8, 0, 0x00 }, L2(0), 925000 }, // Duplicated line
#else
{ 1, { 384000, PLL_8, 0, 0x00 }, L2(0), 925000 }, // Note how the PLL here is PLL_8
#endif
{ 1, { 486000, HFPLL, 2, 0x24 }, L2(5), 925000 }, // Notice the pll from here on
{ 1, { 594000, HFPLL, 1, 0x16 }, L2(5), 925000 },
{ 1, { 702000, HFPLL, 1, 0x1A }, L2(5), 950000 },
{ 1, { 810000, HFPLL, 1, 0x1E }, L2(10), 975000 },
{ 1, { 918000, HFPLL, 1, 0x22 }, L2(10), 1000000 },
{ 1, { 1026000, HFPLL, 1, 0x26 }, L2(10), 1025000 },

{ 1, { 1242000, HFPLL, 1, 0x2E }, L2(15), 1075000 },
{ 1, { 1350000, HFPLL, 1, 0x32 }, L2(15), 1100000 },
{ 1, { 1458000, HFPLL, 1, 0x36 }, L2(15), 1125000 },
{ 1, { 1566000, HFPLL, 1, 0x3A }, L2(15), 1150000 },
{ 1, { 1674000, HFPLL, 1, 0x3E }, L2(15), 1175000 },
{ 1, { 1728000, HFPLL, 1, 0x40 }, L2(15), 1200000 },
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_OVERCLOCK
{ 1, { 1836000, HFPLL, 1, 0x44 }, L2(15), 1225000 },
{ 1, { 1890000, HFPLL, 1, 0x46 }, L2(15), 1250000 },
{ 1, { 1944000, HFPLL, 1, 0x48 }, L2(15), 1275000 },
{ 1, { 1998000, HFPLL, 1, 0x4A }, L2(15), 1300000 },
{ 1, { 2052000, HFPLL, 1, 0x4C }, L2(15), 1325000 },
#endif
{ 0, { 0 } }
};

(Taken from acpuclock-8930ab.c)

The voltage is the last field, and as you can see I have quite an udervolt on the lowest setting (925 -> 700).

The trick is to reduce slightly like when undervolting a pc. (I usually do a big step and see if it crashes, if it does a smaller step and so on).

Use a cpu stress test app. There are a few on the Play Store. If you don't feel like building a kernel yourself use a custom kernel and an app to control the undervolting.

Anyway thats it for the off topic, this thread ain't for this kind of stuff, just to avoid more questions of this kind.

Nightlies are similar to a cross between alpha and bleeding edge, and snapshots are beta to semi-stable. IME, the nightlies work, with the odd bug, and the snapshots are more stable.
