got a tip from a user that Motorola has a material design gallery, just about got it working but i think it needs some binaries to get editing working, this would be awesome to ship a 100% working gallery, ext storage is imporant and we need to be able to delete from it
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Z-Blade:
Completely agree with you. I think Dav should just create the rom to the way he likes it. Not hard to install Nova, Apex or any other launcher. I don't see why Dav need to go to extra length to cater for everyone by using Aroma.

Dav, you doing this for fun and for free. No one has any rights to tell you how to cook your rom, what features to add or anything at all. Just create the ROM to the way you want to create it and if anyone has an issue, there are other GPE Roms out there.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
in the end it makes it easier though, for everyone. I don't like heavy aromas though, just light simple ones
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] king conan:
Danvdh,

you have done an amazing job in the past months. With GPE 4.4, a freaking awesome stable AOSP 4.4 ROM and now this amazingly fast and stable 5.0.

My point is this. There are a legion of people that just like me, we get stuff and enjoy it, we don't ask stupid questions but we don't have the knowledge to truly help you so we don't participate. But I'm sure I'm not alone to thank you for this. Your "job" keeps this phone fresh much better than Samsung and you deserve recognition.

Thanks to you I just look to other devices and there is no reason to replace the S4 for other phone. I think the hardware and design is almost perfect and with your ROM's the software is in the edge of what can be done in Android.

Thanking you is not enough and perhaps if we show more clearly how grateful we are you may feel better.

Donating seems a pretty good way to thank you. You're not alone. Many, many people enjoy what you do.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
I'm good at what I do

kryten2k35 is better

I started the project and manage it, but he does ALOT more then he gets credit for :) I split up donations and give back to devs that make a difference, I've never done this for money

Installed the latest version yesterday.

When I press the lock icon on folder then laucher crash and restarts: "Unfortunately, Launcher3 has stopped.".

Also I'm not able to take screenshots. Pressing Power + Home just brings me the recent app list.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Screenshot shortcut is VOL down + power button. I don't have a clue about the launcher issue, all fine here
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] king conan:
Screenshots now are VOL down+power

If you wipe everthing before flashing (data+system+format data)

You shouldn't get force closes...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
its a legit FC in the CM launcher, I'll have kryten take a look
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] king conan:
I know most people just do it because they like it. That's what makes this community unique. I just meant to strongly say THANK YOU and the other devs. Just to remind you that the noisy repetitive questions don't represent the majority of people that enjoy your efforts.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
Ok thanks i use light manager for missed call led !
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Barthlon:
Hopefully aroma options will give you a little rest. Ofcourse retarted questions etc won't stop, but you can maybe relax a bit more knowing that everybody has the ability to apply / remove options / mods to it's liking. Well... Ability is normally the problem... At least they have the POSSIBILITY! :p

Don't like Trebuchet? Aroma. Wan't to disable HW buttons? Aroma! Etc.

;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
I just took care of this

its fixed for next build, thanks for the solid bug report, bug squashed
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
The multi-launcher discussion is pointless... :confused:

I'm for everything

stock

, then everyone is free of making his choices: "Google Play Edition", remember the meaning of that?

I would hate the idea that ROMs will have extra-weight because of (at least) one useless apk!

GEL should be the default launcher because it's the stock-est and has the smallest apk (making it negligible for everyone who doesn't like it).

And also, why choosing AROMA as a solution?

Former Renault F1 Team manager Flavio Briatore used to say: "the more you add, the more you'll have to fix".

And you've got to trust Italians on these things, they're so smartasses... :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Dualz:
I see what your aim for this is. I can Imagine all the different versions and mods that can be done with Aroma in the one file. I feel for the pain you have to go through learning Aroma but once mastered the ease of cherry picking for the fussy people out there will save you the headache of complaints.

Any Dev moving this way with Aroma on their ROM is a positive in my eyes as its serving the wider variety of users with different install requirements.

The option to install what you want with the ROM you want that comes bundled in Aroma installer should be a standard IMO with all multi version ROM's or unified builds.

Anyways your on to a good thing am sure people will appreciate the end results.

And id like to say Thanks from the people silently sitting back and supporting when or if we can.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
This is the reason why the aroma is necessary.

I cannot do this ROM without Dan, in all honesty :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Edgio60:
Fair dos. You'll never please everyone though, aroma or not - there will always be idiots whining for other stuff to be added/removed and there will always be retarded questions.

I will never understand the laziness of people who can't be arsed making a few simple tweaks to any rom to get it working the way they want it to. If they can flash a custom rom, they are more than able.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Kryten, don't quote me wrong because I say that I am for Google stock apps even if I am a Nova Launcher Prime user and enthusiast.

What I am stressing on is this that a GPE ROM should be more Google-based. I dig all of your improvements and I chose this ROM especially for them, but honestly I don't get why the default launcher - the most basic thing of them all - has to be different from Google's.

After flashing the ROM, I installed Nova Launcher from Play Store that's all, just like any Nexus device owner would do.

AROMA is so original-development-ROM... :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MatteoB92:
Also I agree with him, Aroma is just a pain in the ass, who that doesn't want simply change launcher and having always 'the pup ready' could leave an Android development forum and go away
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
In my opinion, the ROM should come with whatever launcher/gallery/file manager etc. etc. etc.... we get given.

This is the choice of the developer(s), as this is, after all, a creation not of a mighty corporate, but of a handful of ordinary people with ordinary day to day lives/families/problems etc. I wonder do these people repeatedly complain to Samsung to not include TW launcher, but something else instead? I think not!

We don't have to install this or any other ROM if we dont want to, and whatever ROM(s) the end-users decide to install, they should respect the choice of the developer(s). Remember folks, Dan is providing us with a base to work from. What you want to do with it after that is up to you.

How do these people who complain about what is bundled in this ROM install anything, or do you just flash a ROM and then install nothing else ever? Again, I think not.

Is it THAT difficult to unistall and install apps, either through TB or the play store?

If you dont want to use TB to uninstall a system app, then remove it from the zip before you flash it in the first place.

Remember folks this is a development thread. Respect the devs. They are not here for financial gain, or to cater for your every whim, but are here for the love of doing what they do. Try not to turn this thread into a petty-minded free-for-all.

By the way Dan. This build is going brilliantly. This ROM is getting better and better every day.

Keep up your great work mate (and kryten/googy too of course). Your hard work is appreciated by almost all of us!

:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] DSA:
Post of the day (but will fall on deaf ignorant ears)

Well said fella
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Sure, me too. I use Nova myself anyway. The reason I suggested Trebuchet, is because it's the most like GEL, but has some features such as grid size control and the ability to turn the search bar off... that GEL doesn't have.

I don't really understand the fuss about the aroma installer. The default launcher, for the user, can be one of the four popular ones (any more than that and we're bloating the installer). I'm a big fan of not having to mess around with the ROM once I'm done.

I can also include the dark contacts/dialer in the installer as well, and the dark settings when I get around to it, rather than having to list several mod files in the posts.

EDIT:

Very apt that [MENTION=4097982]DSA[/MENTION] should pop his head in. The man who started me off with aroma about 2 years ago ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] NuttyBunny:
Works here with no issues, using a Nexus 7 (2013) w/Lollipop and a MTK phone with 4.4.2 with no issues at all. You may try rebooting your phone, as I had that problem once and I don't remember if it was fixed on reboot or going to airplane mode and back.

Enviado desde mi GT-I9505G mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Galaxen:
Does anyone have a fix for phone FC when trying to change network type? It's quite a pain to have to use dialer. I recall someone mentioned it worked in earlier versions, could one perhaps use file/files from earlier versions maybe?

Also I've noticed that the battery dives when screen is on for a longer period of time and cpu is maxing (I have UC to 1,6 just to see if there is a difference). Was it like this in Stock? If you look at the screen shot you can also see that the battery recovers a few procent after being idle. I also have cell standby on top of the battery usage but get decent SOT. I have latest modem for my country.

And I also have that burky/squirky sound from the speakers for alarms, notifications/ringtones. If I'm not mistaken I've always had this on roms with dsp roms even if it's been inactive or I'm I confused?

These are my only issues atm. I'm loving the hard work of the developers. Thx [emoji6]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
It's a lot more work to do two ROM zips than it is to do one. The size has increased by about 85MB. Not going to break anyone's back. The "customised" ROM is both the stock ROM and an optional ROM. Two birds, one stone. Less work.

The aroma discussion can end here. The next ROM is going to use aroma. If it causes any problems, it will be promptly removed.

Unless you are a developer with experience in aroma and a valid reason for not using it.... please don't bother airing off any comments.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] burco:
I guess waiting for 5.0.1 (5.0.2?) isn't enough, Google is going to fix https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=79729 this in an upcoming release.

[MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] when new rom come with aroma need to wipe all ? (i dont know how to use aroma-I am new) or just cache/dalvick ?because now I finish to set up my device :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
You will wipe like you do installing any other version. Full wipe is always recommended and you can dirty flash at your own behest.

The aroma installer includes all the wipe options, though. You don't need to do it in the recovery first. You have options for factory reset, full wipe or dirty flash.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
I'm pretty sure the white searchbar is when you lose connection to Google Play Services. Or, at least, that's my theory. Turning it off and using a widget is one way of solving that, though.

The new installer is shaping up nicely. This next version is busting with fixes and improvements. We're still to take a look at that mis-aligned notification problem in SystemUI/framework-res.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Reading through all the questions here makes me wonder why do all these people risk bricking a 500 euros piece of equipment.

People, long story short. If you feel like posting a question related to how this should be installed or you do not understand the OP I suggest reading more about rooting and flashing recoveries/roms/modems/bootloaders. This is extremely basic stuff that one needs to know before venturing further.

This roms installation is amongst the simplest ones, so if you feel you don't understand you should read more.

I am also 90% sure that more issues will be fixed when samsung will issue a lollipop dedicated bootloader/modem, so keep that in mind as well before asking the devs to fix something...

Edit: One more thing to add. It is a basic thing regarding software on any device (computer, smartphone, etc.) that if you want the best experience or to get rid of bugs, you need to do a clean install. If your computer misbehaves, you format it and do a windows clean install. It's basically the same thing.

Bug report

Animation to open drawer.

Configuration : Drawer animation is cilinder in with fade page activated.

Problem : when open drawer there is a few moment when icons appear and then first drawer page is showed, but icons appear first in bottom page.

Solution detected: deactivate fade pages in animation solve the problem with icons showed but animation is slow and buggy.

Other details: happen with all the animations, maybe is fade page problem related.

Hope it helps for better.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Guys, after experiencing weird standby drain issues (29%) upon updating to GNK4 bootloader and modem, I went back to GNJ5 modem (latest released by Vodafone Italy).

I've been quite reckless and I operated like this:

1. Put the S4 in download mode and plugged to USB port

2. Set-up Odin ticking PHONE and clicking GNJ5 modem

3. "Auto-reboot" unticked; "F.Reset Time" ticked

4. Flashed

5. I got "RESET!" and not "PASS!" as a message

6. Unplugged the phone and re-booted with on/off button

Everything works fine and GNJ5 baseband is rightly listed in Info.

However I still don't get why Odin resulted in "Reset" instead of "Pass". Did I make any mistakes, according to you? :confused:

And also, is it ok to have GNK4 bootloader and GNJ5 modem? Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] trebllaw:
Quick question. Should i be on the latest BootLoader/Modem for me to flash this properly? Or can I flash this over my old bootloader/modem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MatteoB92:
No, you can yet flash on your actual setting
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
Wrong thread. There's probably an Odin thread somewhere on XDA.

As you've already posted: keep auto-reboot ticked. 'Pass' will only be displayed once Odin recognises that the phone has successfully booted. So if you remove the cable before reboot then it will display 'Reset'.

Hi,

I have a few questions about instalation. I have samsung 9505 int. and I'm on stock rom. I would like to install this ROM. Do I need root , cwm or twrp on my phone before I will flash this Rom? Do I need flash gapps? Is there any probleme with KNOX? Thx for your patience
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
no gapps needed...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rboy28:
1. You need a custom recovery on your phone. I recommend TWRP 2.8.3.0. You can install it via Odin

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/182 and follow instructions under "Download - Odin Flashable Tar"

2. Gapps are already included in this ROM

3. It depends on the bootloader you've installed. If your bootloader is newer than MGA there will be a flag. But there will no problems in use but your warranty as void (as always when you install software which haven't got Samsung's signature)
