Hello,

I have 3 bugs that are affecting me,

1) In call screen - turns off screen and can't turn it back on.

2)call reboot - this may have been because I was trying to turn on the screen fantically

3)Tethering - after using the fix it still doesnt work.

newest modem for rogers, but older bootloader

Awesome benchmark from googy-max kernel. Got 30k :)

Will test battery life later :)

1. I can't screenshot so I just installed a screenshot app lol.

2. Noob ques: why is this 300mb only ROM and TW is 1.6 GB? I'm so now in awe :D

1 - screenshot on GPE/ASOP roms is hold vol down & power til it screenshots

2 - TW roms are stock + TW framework + TW apps + demo stuff

all new ASOP/GPE roms don't have GApps pre installed, you have to manually download them now as Google is separating apps from rom

Hey [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] can you clarify whether or not encryption works on your ROM? I tried on Kangpop and it bricked my phone (endless boot loop). TWRP couldn't even read my filesystem. I had to use ODIN to fix it.

I just want to know if encryption is tried and tested in this ROM so I don't risk that problem again. If it's not, is there any plans to add working encryption?

Thanks! Your ROM is great btw, I appreciate how clean it is, you don't try to change LP too much from stock unless it's to improve things, not found much to complain about at all, I also appreciate the H+ symbol instead of just 3G.

All I wish for is a custom ROM that actually works with encryption, it seems this is an oversight for so many.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Encryption will add a sizeable amount of a performance hit on your phone... It's not really worthy it on these devices, since there is no hardware in place to handle decryption, so it's all done via software. Not worth it at all. So much, in fact, people are turning off encryption on their Nexus 6's in order to get performance back.

To answer you, I don't think anyone's tested it yet.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] munichsfinest:
I use Lux and I can tell it definitely doesn't go as dark as it did on KitKat. By far. Has to be Lollipop related.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hexgore:
Speaking strictly from my personal view, I'd rather have a slower phone than a less secure phone. I want to know if my phone is stolen my data is safe. I can get a new phone off my insurance no problem but my personal data falling into the wrong hands is not something I want to have to deal with. Especially since I have no idea if Android Device Manager will remote wipe my phone properly with a custom recovery installed.

I would guess if encryption has not had any kind of fix applied to it in this ROM the result would be the same bug as before. I'll avoid it then.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
New googy kernel will have a new video driver, perhaps this will be "fixed", not sure if it was intended or a bug

Which modem do you guys use with this Rom? I'm having battery drainage problems with the latest modem XXUGNK4, caused by cell standby.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] auiterwaal:
Sorry, but generally people who seek security usually can't use top edge and latest untested software.

Just stick to official updates from manufacturers if security is your concern. It's the price you have to pay in my opinion.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hexgore:
Sadly it seems you are correct, I can't have my cake and eat it too. If I want security I would have to back to stock TW or get a phone with native AOSP support it seems. If only I had the cash for a Nexus 6...

I've been getting less signal than on kitkat, a lot of time without any signal. Anyone else? Today I finally compared my signal with my friend's S4 on the same carrier but he is using kitkat GPE.

Please becareful telling people to follow a guide for a different variatiants. 90 percent of stuff is common to all varients but somethings are specific and 1) will not work for another. 2) can screw things up. That guide is prefaced with "This guide is for the Sprint Galaxy S4 only and as of now it is only compatible with two kernels: KToonsez S4 Kernel 4.4 AOSP (4/17 or later) and PoKernel 1.7 F2FS ONLY Build" in bold and underlined.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
this I need answered, everything else doesn't matter

development people, development

the new release has a ton of really good fixes (including fixed tethering across ALL carriers, no more tethering_dun_1 crap, I'm focused on fixing Samsungs derps and releasing the most stable ROM possible, we've also resolved all media streaming issues out of the box (youtube, xbmc)

and of course it's been worked on with Googy_anas so his latest kernel will be included (which benches 31k on antutu for me), Lets make XDA moderators job a bit easier folks and keep it on topic, they already have their hands full with some stuff, trust me ;)

if it doesn't help i got some kernel settings that might

Truselo is one of my main testers and we are trying to look into this, its weird, my phone doesn't echo but his does slightly and we are both running the same ROM, same carrier, same network, different city and out of 50k downloads, no one else is complaining

there is a few more things we are looking at before next release folks, a ton of improvements have been made!! although frustrating at times, legit complaints have been heard and acted upon

cheers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] robertd0619:
Not true. As far as i know you have to do that on recovery manually. Unless he did that, i doubt he's got f2fs. Also you might want to do some of that too *read* before getting people on a predicament with their phones. Sorry y'all i don't post much but i read a lot and try to understand everything by myself.

Hello and Merry Christmas guys!! [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] and the other devs ! Great job !!! I love this ROM!! The battery is peeerfect!! about 2 days without charging it!!!

I want to post a small prob that i have!! I have sound distortion (if i say it right). When i have the sound at full when there is a notification or someone calls me there is a distortion at the ringtone. its like there is too mach volume for the speaker! i am afraid if this will damage the speaker!!

and something else, when my phone is locked and someone calls me its starts ringing normally but when the screen is turned on the ring stops for a sec and starts again.!!

Does any one else has this issue??

In this ROM the google search bar appears in android 4.4 kit kat.

This is how the programmed [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] in the launcher.

[MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] This can be changed in the next update? and it looks like lollipop?

Excuse me, do I have to unlock the bootloader or make other adjustments before flashing a bootloader update via Odin?

And also, what do I update first, bootloader or modem package?

Edit:

and again, will the process require a re-flash of the ROM, or it will be just like flashing a custom kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Order doesnt matter.

in fact you can do the BL+GSM+LTE in one single flash if you wanted to.

Just put them in the correct boxes.

Only restriction imposed on flashing bootloaders is that you cannot flash a 4.4.2 or earlier bootloader over a 4.3+ bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
From what the OP linked by Kryten says: Bootloader goes with "BL", modem goes with "PHONE/CP".

I have downloaded the GSM+LTE cumulative tar: do I simply attach it to "PHONE" box?

I've got a 4.4.2 bootloader. Do you mean that I can flash other 4.4.2 bootloader on it, but not older ones or the upcoming 5.0 bootloaders, am I right? ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Bootloaders go in the Bootloader (BL) box

All modems (GSM+LTE) go in the Phone (CP) box

and as I mentioned, you can put them in the both boxes and flash all in one single Odin flash if you want
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] RealMikeyTaylor:
And yet I still remain unable to flash this amazing ROM, and stuck with CM12. I've changed to ext4 but instead of it booting into recovery when I had the F2FS filesystem, it just stays at the Samsung splash screen...and yes, I gave it time to boot because of it being the first reboot..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Greencrow:
Flashed the googy kernel 1.25 and boom! :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xxshabsxx:
Thanks mate, sorry for the late response, went out for the night.

I've just flashed it, and will wait until tomorrow and I'll test out some calls and see what happens.

Could it possibly be the modem, or shouldn't that effect it.

Definitely didn't happen pre 5.0 either, was on your KK GPE ROM and that was fine.

Upgrading bootloader + modem + non-hlos to latest (nk4) seems to have solved battery cell drain :) so for everybody who is having issues with battery drain and frequent disconnections I'll suggest this

Inviato dal mio GT-I9505G utilizzando Tapatalk

I think it's region/carrier dependant. I was having cell standby drain with GNK4 and had to revert back to GNI2 which is the reccomended one for my region and carrier.

I'm also on the correct modem and latest boot loader. I think google play services is to blame. Wish I could greenify that :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Probably due to the ad-blocked host file.

Clear it down to a stock host file and you will get them back.

Either that, or work out the destination domain, and remove it specifically from the host file
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] humungousfungusamongus:
Any instruction in how to edit that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hexgore:
Yeah this ROM has adblocked host files built in.

I don't think you can remove it without manually editing the host files yourself. I was about to say install AdAway and use the disable ad blocking option, but I think that works by backing up your current host file, so it would not help you here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kees1982:
Install adaway:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2190753

- Put that google ads hostname in your whitelist, apply changes and reboot.

- Or in adaway you can just disable adblocking...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Edgio60:
I think you can install AdAway and restore the hosts file through that
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Just make a backup of the bundled /system/etc/hosts

Then replace it with the following:

127.0.0.1	localhost

Either use a standard text editor on your device, or create on your PC in Notepad++ then copy+paste to sdcard, then copy into /system/etc

ensure permissions for the file are 644 (rw-r--r--)

This will stop ALL ad blocking, so be warned.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] humungousfungusamongus:
So is it really something that needs left till the next build? Since it's every shopping link from Google then the devs are aware of it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
It's not an issue since they are supposed to be blocked. The reason an ad-blocking hosts file was included was to block ads. Therefore it's working correctly. If you don't want ads to be blocked then edit the file yourself as explained in the above posts.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vinneeh:
Do I need to root my stock rom before I can install another rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
No, just flash a custom recovery via Odin. Information on how to do this can be found via Google.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] humungousfungusamongus:
I get it, but blocking something as big as every single shopping link from google is more of a hindrance surely? As it defeats one of the most common things used.

I got an adblock remover that allows you to back up the hosts file and even remove certain or all entries which has resolved it.

Don't get me wrong ads are a giant pain in the ass there just must be a better way to fine tune it hopefully in upcoming builds.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
Fair point. Some people would prefer them to be blocked, others don't. It depends which hosts file you use. Don't know if that would be something that would be changed by default or left up to individual users to change themselves like you've done.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Either do what I said by resetting the host file, and then you could possibly install Adaway, and see if this lets those specific ads you are attempting through, or inspect the element that you are attempting to open to work out its domain, and remove the specific domain from the hosts file
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] humungousfungusamongus:
I don't need to do that tho. Using the adblock remover let's me effectively switch the adblocker on and off, or if I choose to do so I can whitelist googleaddservices or rover.ebay.com

I didn't even realise it had an adblocker running as I'm so used to having ghostery and adblock enabled on my laptop. It was only confusing as all the google shop links weren't working.

Regarding the MMS/SMS thing, this is not really something that will be fixed by reflashing. I imagine this is some sort of APN issue, or radio issue. Seems to be region specific
