I dont think it's related to this.

The disappearing app problem only surfaced since using the new CM kernel.

it seems to be an internal/external SD card issue.

True, play store has problems installing certain apps, saying something along the lines of "unable to install to internal or USB storage", but TB cannot even restore apps that were installed to SD card. Attempting to do so just hangs TB indefinitely.

Likewise with the time_daemon problem, which only emerged with the new kernel

This has affected apps such as Llama running scheduled timed tasks.

last beta flashed and loss of wifi/data with alucard kernel :confused:

stock kernel, i can't stop the led blue blinking... :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Technical:
Start losing data/WiFi with 7.8 (comming from 7.4). Maybe when I was inside a building and then the signal drops... Stay a lot of time to recover it.

I've set the VPN automatically, for 3G (according to my SIM card).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munkyvirus:
For the WiFi, did you get the latest Alucard kernel? I know there have been issues with WiFi and his latest, 1.3d, seems to have fixed them. That being said, the new kernel shuffle still has a lot of kinks to it.

And for the LED blinking non-stop, I was reading about that issue in the CM thread as well. I think the fix was to turn off the led when charging or something.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] geyce76:
up !
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HaTrED_:
That's a known issue and you can get a workaround for it disabling app move to ext sd under app's settings!

If you use a kernel other then stock, it's possible to restore your apps with tb. After that, disable app moving and reboot...

Till now it's the only available solution... As far as my knowledge goes!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] doctordroid:
Really? It takes 10+ hours to recharge my phone. I get 2 hours more of SOT with the other kernel. I would average 28 hours battery life and 5 hours SOT. The drop is very noticeable.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kondra007:
As for me, Alucard is the cause of battery drain. With stock CM kernel, battery life is much better.

First time i hear that i LL try...also i went back on 7.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Technical:
If you configure it right, as my old and good KT kernel, it could be a lot better and suitable for performance or battery life.

The default kernel has a lot less possibilities for governors and I/O schedulers.

It's a pity that we do not have a "safe" kernel to use right now besides the internal one.

Could you post your kernel settings in PM please?

There's a "workaround" to it because it's related - i suppose! - with the missing apps issue...

If a few people are having issues with SD card drivers, I reckon I'll wait for a Stable 8.0, I'm happy with Stable 7.0 at this stage (see no real benefit of using weeklys at this stage, unless anyone can say otherwise) but loving how great SlimKat is none the less!

No Go on 7.9. I did get TiBu to restore after several stalls and restarts. I made sure to only restore apps. No system data. After reboot Android process started crashing. I aborted and restored 7.0 stable. I will wait till the next release and try again.

Anyone having problems with the hotword "OK Google"?

I am using Apex with hotword detection but this problem is present right in the Google Search app as well.

Hi I've checked through the past few pages but I noticed no one has yet to update on whether the signal dropping issue is fixed in 7.9?

Btw not sure if this helps but I only get signal drops when the battery level goes below 30%. Happened 3 times to me over the past week. The signal icon on the status bar would still indicate as having signal but it is not possible to load anything, obviously.

Tried rebooting and most of the times it'll go to the boot animation before it powers down on its own.

I'm able to get past this issue by plugging in power and doing a reboot while charging. The signal will then work as normal.

On 7.6 weekly, Alucard kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Metalazzo:
Hi

I don't know if it's ROM or kernel related but with 7.8 and alucard 1.3d, behavior of the telephone when not in my country is really really bad.

It loses frequently the network: it is unusable when not in France...

It was perfectly fine in June with earlier versions of the ROM and the kernel :(

The behavior became bad when I thought about stopping roaming data-> without data, no stable network it seems...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Technical:
I've wiped system and used Universal Kernel Cleaning 5.2 by BluMak TEAM to move from 7.4 to 7.9 (remember I've tested moving to 7.6 and 7.8 without success).

I'm not having issues with Bluetooth.

WiFi, sometimes, connects quickly and other times remain as disabled, although it is not.

Radio (phone) signal get lost when I enter a zone with low signal, no surprise, but it takes more time to be restored. When I go to the garage, there is no signal. When I leave to street it could take some minutes to the signal to be restored.

Yesterday, I was using Waze and GPS signal was ok for 20 minutes. Suddenly, in the middle of the town in a sunny day, GPS signal was lost. Restored after 5 minutes, turning on/off Waze to see what I get.

My personal experience, version 7.4 was completely stable. 7.6 and 7.8 had a lot of issues regarding to signals. 7.9 is much better but yet not stable.

Is there anything I can help the developers with these issues?

I installed this ROM a while back, almost everything is great. 2 problems:

1. I have no LTE, no matter where I go. I get an OK amount of 3g, but I never get any LTE, even if I'm in the usual LTE spots, or the labelled "4g" spots according to the OpenSignal app.

2. My front-facing camera will not work no matter what. The Camera app pretends to switch cameras the first time I press it, but remains on rear camera, then crashes if I press the switch camera button again.

I'm on a Sprint GS4. Clean install and full G-Apps. I have tried both 7.0 stable and 7.8 weekly. I have tried:

Factory reset (again)

Nova Launcher Shortcut to APNs

Switching APNs

Editing the APNs

Creating a new APN from the data listed here:

Using different camera apps

Wiping the Davlik Cache

Restoring my last ROM, backing up the APN's .xml from that ROM and putting it on this one

Installing new Kernels (KToonz wouldn't install, Two alucards wouldn't boot and the other got no signal at all)

Any ideas as to what could fix these two problems? I really like this ROM, and I don't want to have to try to find another one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Technical:
If you read some posts before, Tylog suggested me to update the modem and solve all issues with signal for me. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/

KT stop working since August 3rd due to changes in CM/Samsung and now is incompatible.

I'm using Alucard. There is only one version (the latests for CM) that is working.

Are you restoring data with some app like Titanium Backup?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TheMattMercy:
Just to clarify, for both problems, I read the most recent pages about a week ago, then started searching numerous different terms through the search tool. I'm not one of those people who just post without reading. If that's the impression you got, I apologize.

Thank you very much. I will try that. Hopefully that will help with the camera issues too. Also thanks for the update on CM.

When I initially switched ROMs, I did use Titanium Backup, but I only restored User Apps, not System. When testing out data wipes, kernels, etc, I'm using nandroid backups from CWM. I've been testing my solutions without restoring my data, as I thought that might interfere.

EDIT: BTW, my baseband version is already something that ends in MF9 (can't check it right now because I'm flashing it). Isn't that the most recent modem version?

EDIT2: Baseband version was L720VPUAMF9 before I flashed it. It's still the same.

EDIT3: Found out NAE is the most recent. Downloaded it and flashing... We will see if this works...
