Hello,

I have some questions about this rom:

- I someone installed with success Viper4Android Fx driver? If yes, how to do it? I can on CM12 but not on this one.

- how is the bluetooth, is it stable when connected to a watch and playing Google music on a BT headset?

Thanks.

To me if I resolved it.

I do not see major changes in version 1.28.2015.

The most important change for me would not stutter audio via Bluetooth when screen is off.

*In the thread "[Q & A] [ROM] 【】 5.X Google Play Edition 【JFLTE-GPE" many users are notifying and bother of this problem remains unresolved.

[MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] To said many times that he does not have this problem with the audio bluetooth, [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] says he does not have to fix anything, because there is no problem, but the problem continues week after week.

I still important option to see the percentage of battery in the lock screen.

I understand that the percentage of battery is not seen in lock screen, because lollipop is designed in this way, but if it could be implemented, for it is not? because it can not?

I will wait for another upgrade for full wipe and install, I prefer 01/23/2015

Go to V4A thread and there are very specific instructions.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ed_bracam:
I followed that. Changing SE Linux, flashing zip in system, adding libraries.... Works fine for CM12 but this rom always say that the driver is not installed. That's why I use CM and not GPE
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Works perfectly for me
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
You should start using another ROM. it makes life much easier if you're running the latest ROM.

This ROM release was a stability release, not a minor graphical bug release.

As far as Bluetooth goes, we've drive everything possible to fix it. I believe it's a CPU scaling issues, based on actual, helpful, reports. If so this isn't something me or Dan can fix. For that we look to Goofy Anas... Who, like me and Dan, has his own schedule and doesn't work to mine, Dan's and especially yours.

The lock screen battery will be fixed. But it's not as important as the OTA app spamming your connection every 30 seconds. Use either of the "inside" options if it's absolutely critical to your peace of mind. They work fine for now.

I'm logging in here to say that I was really happy to have the update earlier in the week as the previous version had been chewing up the battery and I was having a lot of sound issues.

I did a clean install and wow! Silky smooth and very lean on the battery. I've had two twelve hour days with bluetooth on (Android Wear watch and headset) and my audio is working well. No more breaking up and stuttering.

I've dirty flashed the update tonight and it's looking good too.

Thanks to the team - I am seriously loving this rom!

Google backup issue

No one has problem with old data on Google backup when restoring after clean flash?

Seems not to backup data on this Lollipop ROM, on KitKat (by [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION]) it worked fine.

Thanks for help:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] burco:
I think that the audio bugs people report may have some merit, but the problem is that most of the bug reports are such poor quality, you can't expect anyone to act on it. They mostly lack:

proper description of the ecosystem

proper steps to reproduce

logfiles

input files

If you are plagued by an audio bug, wipe your phone entirely, keep it squeaky clean (don't install apps), put the audio file on internal storage, remove your SD card and go from there. If you still experience problems, then Googy or whoever will have something to work with, or beat important missing information out of you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
I think Google only store XX number of backups every 40 days and won't allow any new ones between then. You should use Titianum Backup. Best £5 I ever spent.

Hi Folks

I would like to give this ROM a try on my international GT-i9505

I am coming from an Imperium ROM, I have a nandroid backup and also titanium backup already taken.

It mentions on the installation

"Make sure you are using the latest modem and recovery for your variant, TWRP preferred "

Where can I check to download the latest modem for my device? I would prefer not to use TWRP I like to use CWM. Is that still possible?

Also can I get Ultra Pack for this Google Play rom, that is available on Imperium or something similar?

My plan is to do a clean wipe and then pick the apps I want reinstalling using Nandroid or Titanium. Anyone see any issues with this?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I use TB, of course;) But TB don't backup wifi. I rather install app from Play Store and after installation restore data only via TB.

You use TB to install app after clean flash? Is it safe (no FC's)?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
I agree.

I had stuttering issues in the early release if this ROM but they soon went away with some kernel updates. I, however, wasn't using Bluetooth.

The most convincing report, to me, was regarding the CPU being stuck at 384MHz with the screen off and not scaling past that. This used to cause issue's for me on older ROMs when using ktoonsez kernel and limiting the screen off CPU.

As far as other things, hawkerpaul suggested a bigger readahead and using FIOPS I/O scheduler, which IMHO should be standard. FIOPS, like DEADLINE, is well optimised for flash storage performance.

I would suggest to those with Bluetooth issues trying Tasker ,or manually, setting the CPU to ~800MHz when using Bluetooth and music. To help diagnose the issue.

---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 AM ----------

No, do not install any "packs" designed for other ROMs.

You can use CWM, but TWRP is more up to date and based in a proper AOSP code base.

I use Titanium without issue.

Yes, I use it without issue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jpovedam:
Thank you very much for your reply [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION].

Ok, I will update this new version, you said that it is still more stable than 01/23/2014.

I am totally convinced that you are doing everything possible to solve the problem of audio bluetooth, it is not urgent, the solution will come at some point,

I also know that "Googy_anas" doing everything possible to solve this problem, the thread of his kernel users also report this problem.

The indicator battery percentage on the screen block is not urgent, not too necessary, if you can set to appear well and if you can not, nothing happens.

From everything we talked about, we ask, inform, nothing is indispensable or necessary to live.

I hope not angry about my comments. I am fan number 1 of his work and I am very grateful.

I have a backup from 42 days ago, yet this rom doesn't seem to back up.

It's annoying because I have an old i9505 which I use as a mini tablet, has tablet like apps on there, same with my Nexus 7, most of the apps on there I never would use on a phone.

xposed doesn't work on lollipop
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ranjb:
That is a real shame

When I used Android 4.4 (KitKat) on my S4 I used the Wanam Exposed App called 'Exchange Bypass' which could ignore certain security policies such as a requirement to have a PIN code to unlock the lock screen.

After upgrading to this ROM and the move of Exchange e-mail from the separate E-Mail application to GMail this is no longer possible. Are there any workarounds anyone is aware of. I would think others may have this problem who use their phone to pick up corporate emails?

Thanks

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ranjb:
Another exchange email app will work exactly or similar to the exchange native app it also means I am forced to use the secuity policies governed by my organisations.

For example my organisation doesn't allow to use the swipe password, it insists on the 4 pin pass code which I don't want to use. As soon as the Exchange app is configured, it wants to be made a device administrator and removes that right for me to use swipe.

Exchange Bypass did exactly that and bypassed the security rules governed by an organisation so another Exchange app won't help i'm afraid.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jpovedam:
ja,ja,ja,ja
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
Other exchange apps use their own implementation of exchange.apk and thus the corporate policy can be overruled by other apps by design. Nine Exchange, for example, has the option to use security policies only for the app and not system wide.

Furthermore you could search for a hacked exchange.apk. Don't know if they already exist for Lollipop, but you could give it a shot. You didn't need xposed for this on Kitkat, either, if you had used a hacked exchange apk. Xposed is pure evil.

Hello again !

I upgraded to the latest version, thank you for what you do. I did by doing a full wipe.

Still have the music problem : I tried to install the Apollo app for the music this time. Everything was working fine until I rebooted the phone and now the app crashes. The first time it worked perfectly. I did a clean with the Clean Master application but I don't know if it's the problem, I just deleted some sache files.

Sorry for my bad english...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sydknee:
+1

I used to use the security exchange hack and then xposed mod for this purpose, but can't find anything that works in the same way in lollipop. Occasionally these seemed to give force closes.

The nine app is a fab alternative, and the security policies are only applied to the app not the phone. I love it and wouldn't use anything else now. You have to pay, but there is a free trial period of the full working app so worth giving it a go

Interesting. How would one test this (I mean track CPU mhz) with the screen off? I assume a particular program would do so but I'm unfamiliar.

If the screen off mhz is locked to 384, I'd assume that would mess with a lot of things. Seems like a simple kernel tweak would unlock?

I have just installed this ROM on my new galaxy S4 black edition. It is good, here and here small stuttering, which is ok, not very annoying. I have few questions about rom, what is difference between this rom and official CM12? I know that CM12 have worse drivers (worse audio quality, screen UI -> hwcomposer not working, and other things which Samsung based roms dont have). This ROM is based on official Google Play Edition Rom and it have official drivers like samsung roms, right?

It will only check the first core, but that's what you need, reading from the other cores might not even work.

While running Spotify, on Intelliactive, my CPU is 384MHz for the most part, and spikes to 1350MHz occasionally.

Using Bluetooth, it spikes to 594MHz as well as 1350MHz.

I don't think that is the issue, then. Though, I don't notice any stutters, either.

Tell that to my contractor! W-Support: "Sir, you can't have your device's proximity sensor repaired becuase you've caused its failure by rooting it." Not the exact words but what was being implied by the response I got...

I care about Knox. Does that make me uneducated?

I know exactly what (capital K) Knox is. FYI, it's not "...a flag and nothing more. ...". It is, for sure, more than a simple "...flag...". But who cares about the technical details?! Oh, right, only the illiterate...

Knox on its own won't void warranty but triggering its counter may possibly render your warranty claims invalid.

Rooting and flashing custom ROMs doesn't void warranty. Samsung knows that. So to put a stop to that they implemented an intermediate step to gain root rights and/or flashing custom images, called Knox, for its tampering you can have your warranty claims refused. Samsung has not stated any clear words whether a tampered Knox counter will void your warranty. I have two devices with triggered Knox counters. I wrote about the first one in the lines above. The second one, an i9505, had a broken digitizer. They refused to repair it "bacuse you may have caused yourself".

No offence intended!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dirkdigles:
Agreed. It seems to depend on the device I'm connected to. When streaming bluetooth to my portable speaker, it works fine - no hiccups at all.

When I'm driving in my car and connected to my stereo (Clarion CX501, uses bluetooth 2.1), it skips every 30-60 seconds.

My old S3 would sometimes have issues with my car stereo as well, but not as much as I'm currently experiencing. When I ran KT747 on my S3, I could tweak it to get no skips at all.

Note that I play music exclusively through Poweramp which is locally stored on my external sd.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Just because the repair center is using Knox being void as an excuse to not fix your sensor doesn't mean that Knox counter is more than a flag. Knox counter is just a flag that won't let you use the knox container, it does not void the direct samsung warranty and it doesn't mean that the phone is broke, it looks like the uneducated are working on the repair shop and if you are letting them giving the knox excuse to void the warranty then you are being a fool. Knox flag is just an indicator of custom systems/kernels and not for rooting the phone, and it doesn't mean a damage to the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nitrous²:
It is an eFUSE. A physical chip.

Samsung advertises devices to have the Knox Container. If I lose this function by tripping the counter, I no longer have the device that was being advertised to me. Therefore it's a malfunction. But this interpretation may vary depending on the country you live in. Besides, it's not that I accepted their Knox excuse. I just don't have another option. When I contacted Samsung, they told me that I have to get in touch with my contractor. But all of this is not the point. You can't say that tripping Knox won't void your warranty and present it as it'd be a fact. In some, wait, many cases support and repair shops can use this as a legitimate excuse to refuse service! You could've said that it "could possibly void your warranty".
