[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] VanGolfer:
The exchange service has the newer version but this rom wouldn't allow me to update. Same as Gmail, after installing the apps and reboot, both exchange service and gmail back to the original version. And give you the FC, until you clear the data. Very weird.

Not getting LTE on Sprint S4 SPH-L720

I have installed the sprint framework patch on the 03-15-2015 build and I still can't get LTE service. I have edited the build.prop file to be SPH-L720 and jfltespr in the 3 locations. I have tried setting the service to GSM only and RUIM/SIM then switching back to NV and LTE/CDMA but that doesn't work either. Does anyone have a reliable method to get LTE to work on this ROM in the jfltespr? My other SPH-l720 is running NG2 stock and does pickup LTE in the same place that I am trying to get LTE without success with this ROM. Any advice or patch that I need is appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] RealMikeyTaylor:
Is anyone randomly getting the "no Sim" notification? When ever I get it, it asks me to restart my phone. Then when I do I get stuck in a bootloop.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SergioA:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benjamen50:
Which gallery? The Google Camera Gallery? (Also named as 'Photos') or the stock gallery which is just called gallery with a square picture like icon.

Also where are these pictures stored?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GeorgeNYer:
Stock gallery, and they're stored in my external SD card. When I reinstall the rom the gallery works fine but then this starts happening.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benjamen50:
Ok, backup everything in your external SD card to somewhere else other than the external SD card, then format the external SD card and then restore your external SD Card backup onto that external SD card, and see if the gallery is still causing issues for you.

If you have another spare SD card lying around, try using that one too and see if the issue still occurs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jtash01:
yes. that doesn't work either.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MySeLfPT:
Yup. JuSt checked the downloaded apk. It was 5.1. It reverted back on reboot o.0 to 5.0.1. I'll just stick to it until 5.1 comes to the playstore.

Does it revert back to 5.0.1 on reboot?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mikeysweet:
I have a i337 AT&T phone running another ROM. I installed this rom, everything seemed ok but on boot it would just show me the Samsung lock, then reboot and go into recovery. I tried installing 2 more times with the same results. I don't dirty flash. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] puppynaz:
I don't install any galleries that come with the ROM. Try Quickpic instead. It's fast. It even syncs Google Drive photos, Dropbox, Picasa (if you want it to) and has variety of themes too, AND can make specific folders hidden with a passcode!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SergioA:
Kept 5.1 after reboot

Meaning the S4 GPE update is soon :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] markiarom:
Meh, also i read..

But Samsung is not Motorola... I hope so, but still not 100% sure
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
be thankful they have waited this long for 5.1, My Nexus 6 has had 3 factory images shipped of 5.1 and apparently a 4th on the way. Hopefully Samsung syncs r3 or r4 when they finally do get around to building 5.1 GPE (I still own my S4 so don't freak out everyone and Kryten is on this aswell)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] markiarom:
In fact i don't care how much work samsung spend on 5.1, isn't a problem. Only i'm happy if they do it :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] htr5:
There is no DPI option in the ROM settings but you can download an app to change the DPI from the Play Store. These work for any ROM.

At each reboot Gmail is back to 5.0.1 from 5.1.xxx and the app crashes

Ops, I have to correct myself, it reverts to 5.0.1 :(

Now trying to install the latest Exchange Services from:

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...ge-services-6-5-1729047-android-apk-download/

EDIT: even with the latest Exchange Services the same problem remains: at each reboot Gmail is back to 5.0.1 from 5.1.xxx and the app crashes; my only solution for now is to use Titanium Backup and restore the new one (app+data)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] droid_1989:
It's because Gmail is a system app I think because you must of picked it in Aroma.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SergioA:
Thanks richfreestone, but my Gmail is not installed as system app...

EDIT: even if gmail is not a system app in my installation, if I uninstall it, at each reboot I find it again at version 5.01, really weird....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Overlord Yuri:
I see there's some praise for the stock kernel in here. Is there anywhere to find the compatible stock kernel online? I know I can install it through aroma, but I'd rather not reflash the rom right now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cantenna:
I got another question, who is using the Google play edition modems instead of their carriers?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] htr5:
If you go to settings -> apps -> all tab -> find "Media Storage" and then clear the apps data. You then need to reboot/soft reboot. This fixes the issue for me but it comes back eventually. I also had to reapply changes to my ringtone and notification sounds.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] T-nm:
I have the same problem. After each reboot, it reverts back and won't work until I re-update it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wolfen1086:
I don't have any camera storage problems
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] giorgiosandros:
Is this true?

Does this mean that this ROM has the same camera quality as TW?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] puppynaz:
Yes. Its the best.

Also if you dont want camera crashes, try Moto Camera when given the option to select from there 3 cameras.

The only thing you'll miss from the TW camera is the default night-mode in the alternate camera apps (Snapchat, Retrica, etc.)

Other than that Camera quality is perfect :)

Please help

I have a problem receiving any application apk for bluethoot. The other mobile you want me to send this apk, detects my phone but when I send out fault when sending. And if this application will change the extension to jpg if you let me send.

All this comes as a result of installing this rom.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I personally use the One Plus camera app and have yet to encounter any crashes. Plus it also has more modes and a cleaner interface than Touchwiz. I haven't bothered with the Moto camera, but does it have anything the One Plus app doesn't?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vvikke:
I have tried this over about 1 week now and it's awesome! Really fast and fluid and beautiful as hell :) though I got 1 more question/request; will there be or do you have the possibility to implement the Lollipop's Camera2 API into this rom? It would be awesome as in this stage of the rom you can't use the fenomenal app "Manual Camera" that takes advantage over the new api...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] markiarom:
Samsung have to implement it first.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vvikke:
I though it was something that had to do with the rom..? At least that's what I thought after watching Armando Ferreiras review on the app. And if that's the case, then why would Samsung be involved in this, I mean it's not their rom after all?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] markiarom:
Is a driver/hardware matter. Samsung have to rework on image sensor's drivers to implement new APIs. Also the S4 might not have right hardware (ISP) to work with new API's..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Dark Blitz:
HELP!!!

Could someone please help me. I had CM 12.1 from AntaresOne installed, however I want to switch back again to this ROM. I changed my recovery to TWRP 2.8.6.0-F2FS, now everytime I try to flash this ROM it keeps hanging at the Samsung Galaxy S4 boot screen. I tried a lot of things to solve this, but I can't manage to get into this ROM. Could someone please help me and suggest an idea that would help. (Yes, I did a complete wipe even including internal storage)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dcillusions77:
Have you made sure the md5 checksum is right? Make sure you formatted your partitions to ext4 instead of f2fs. TWRP 2.8.4.0 works not sure about 2.8.6.0 though.

The Md5 i got is:1d93562ff1b60d1375c8c7bb64effe72
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] reg66:
try an older version of twrp, i believe 2.8.4 works well. latest version has had some issues
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AntaresOne:
In TWRP go to wipe->advanced wipe->tick system->change or repair file system->ext4 then install ROM's zip

Solution: Update Gmail. Before rebooting use RootExplorer (or something like that) and delete the folder "/data/app/com.google.android.gm-1" (contains Gmail 5.0.1). There should still be a folder "/data/app/com.google.android.gm-2" (with Gmail 5.1). After that Gmail was fine for me and stayed at version 5.1 after reboot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rushco:
This seems to have fixed Gmail for me. I also deleted the Google Text-to-Speech folder and it no longer shows up as an update available in Google Play.

Google Text-to-Speech is located in the same place and is named com.google.android.tts-1 and because I updated the app so many times I ended up deleting 20 folders and the only one I left was com.google.android.tts-2

Now I'm on CM12 and I have a bad battery duration.

I would like to try this GE if better.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
I could go about 5 hours sot with approximately 40 hours in single charge with a 3000 mah battery. You should be able to get 4-4.5 hours easily.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] puppynaz:
It's actually featureless. But capturing photos is snappier than the other cameras I've tried. And that's kind of what I need: a fast camera. :)

Use it with googy max kernel, I get 5 hours (continuous heavy usage) screen on time. And minimal usage, that's standby + 2 hours 30 mins screen on time, the phone lasts more than 19 hours. :)

No governor, gpu tweaking. All stock settings.

Is this a bug? Every time i used my phone this updating camera firmware always pops up.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] !crazy:
This is NOT (sorry everyone for leaving the word unintentionally out.) true. TW will record 30 frames per second videos, and no camera that I know except Snap, will do that with GPE.

Snap is also not a real solution because it is not reliable. Sometimes will record as other camera with ~16 fps. One can increase the reliability by enabling 'drop preview frames' option, but than you have to deal with terrible light sensor behaviour. Only videos made under good light conditions will look well, those made under low light, what here means a sunset already, will look like bunch of colorful or grey dots.

I am still not sure if drop preview frames causes this, or enabling advanced settings option self will already be the reason for this broken light sensors behaviour.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
I think it's caused by the OnePlus One camera app.

The OnePlus One camera app seems to record at a higher framerate too. The image seems a lot smoother compared to the Google camera or any other camera I have tried so far.

[MENTION=6312707]GDReaper[/MENTION]: I use the One Plus camera app and have yet to see any "firmware update" popups.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
On a previous build the OnePlus One camera caused this. It has been discussed.

I used the OnePlus One camera and haven't had the "firmware update" notification.

It is surely not caused by the Google camera as it has been my main camera since GPE and didn't have the notification.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] myawan:
I get 3 hours SOT within a day of use
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Galaxicos:
5 hours is impossible for me. On TW based Kitkat I could get 4-5,5 hours easily, but with GPE the drain on 3G/4G is massive. It's an achievement to get 3-4 hrs with GPE.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] htr5:
Have you heard of Gravity Box's (xposed) smart radio feature. When you have data enabled, you can set the phone to switch the a low power mode when the screen is off and not downloading above a threshold. When you turn the screen on and unlock the phone, it will switch back to 4G or w/e.

I have mine set to GSM (2G) when the screen is off and to CDMA/EvDo (auto) when the screen is on. There are also various other options.

These settings are under Phone Tweaks -> Smart Radio. But you need root, the xposed framework and gravity box.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Which build? I've been using the Android 5.0,1 builds and never saw this. I guess I'm wondering what's different about my S4 compared to yours, as I've had none of these issues.

Have you got xposed And gravity working with no problems on this ROM?

With the files of the oficial xposed thread?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] htr5:
Yes. Xposed 3.0 alpha 2 is working on this ROM and I have not noticed any problems. You can download the latest version here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

Gravitybox is also working and has a stable release for lollipop.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ruikarel:
Have this ROM working good, but gravity box has great utility, specially that smart radio add on..

Gonna read And maybe install it....

I have the last update here, using nova launcher, can i install xposed normally or have to do something more?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] htr5:
Not sure if this is the right thread for this but in the kernal settings on this ROM, the notification LED brightness settings do not seem to be working properly for me. Adjusting the low brightness slider has no effect. When I cover the light sensor or put it under a torch, the LED just takes the value given by the slider for high brightness environments. I have confirmed that my light sensor is working properly.

It's not a big deal but annoying to circumnavigate this, I have set the LED chargin colour to a lower brightness red so it is always dim but all notifications are still on full brightness. I've also set the charged LED colour to black; as far as I can tell, the LED is off.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GiRaFa-SAMA:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Works for me. Sometimes when using TB after flashing a new ROM I've had to re-download it from the Play Store rather than rely on the saved zip file as it can't seem to acquire root access. Could well be another way to fix it but that works for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] limpbisquit:
Well, it's been a week and my battery is getting suckier and suckier. I'm on battery saving mode for most of the time. No data. Just wifi and sms. Brightness at lowest. All syncs are off, locations are off, google detect ok is off. I'm out of ideas. By sucky i mean i can't get through the day, i unplug at around 9am and 6pm i'm dead. I'm not even a heavy user aside from text messages but lately i have't been texting much and not even using it for a lot of browsing. Is it possible that this is due to using a kitkat modem? There are no lollipop modems yet for this country. But i don't get why the battery life is getting worse than the 1st time i flashed it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dvhttn:
Old battery maybe? Maybe just a 'bad' battery? Sure you've been through all possible issues that could cause battery drain (use a wakelock detector and/or betterbatterystats)? I use the kernel settings mentioned above that someone posted and feel that battery life is excellent (though got the phone second hand so don't know what it was like originally ....). And nit's not got worse as I use it. Now been on the same version since it was released - about 3 weeks now I believe.

Battery's pretty new. Just over a year old. And my previous rom, echoe rom, gave me at least 1 day with similar usage. But i don't want to go back to that rom since the developer already discontinued it.

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

I'd post tomorrow since i already recharged today, battery was at 30% at 2pm. I think at best i could get almost 4 hours of screen abd i'm dead. As to what is using the battery, it's only screen, then uc browser, then android os and system.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] limpbisquit:
I dunno if i attached it properly. But here's some stats. I recharged back to 97% before unplugging and screen on time is 2hours and 17mins with 38% remaining.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rhoban:
I didn't have the issue either (I used the Google Camera). But at some point people asked about that firmware update notification and the conclusion was that it was caused by the OnePlus One camera.

It was some time ago anyway.

I had one persistent issue with the OnePlus One camera, though.

Sometimes it wouldn't record while in the front facing camera mode.

But only sometimes. Other times it worked fine. This happened only with the front facing camera mode. The back camera recorded every time just fine.

PS: My S4 is the black edition. No differences in terms of hardware, but there may be something else, because sammobile lists the roms for the black edition and that rose red edition separately.

---------- Post added at 10:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 AM ----------

It hasn't been discontinued. They just left xda. They have a site. You can find their roms there. Unless they actually did drop rom development for this device.

Anyway, I usually had great battery life on this rom. Battery stats once reported 14 days of battery in idle.

And usually lost 2% battery over night.

But my battery is only a few months old. Battrry life degradation depends on the usage conditions and charging procedure.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GiRaFa-SAMA:
How to allow applications to access the SD card in this ROM? I have a forced close when I allow any application to write to the external memory.
