Yup, heavy whatsapp user here, no real impact on device when in deep sleep.

Infact i decided to test how well my battery would drain in deep sleep and the results are pretty awesome, device has been off the charger for 23 hours and 35 minutes, screen on time was 41 minutes and the battery is still at 81%. (Wifi always on)

Im impressed with the battery, not "miles ahead of Kit Kat" but, it sure is better.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kta:
WhatsApp is always at the bottom of the list in the battery usage stats and I use it a lot.

Hey mate, I'd love for you to share what adjustments you made to the governor etc. 4 hours SOT sounds very impressive! Please do share :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Unless Dan does this, this is not something I would personally work on at all. Any "mod" that doesn't add new functionality is a bit pointless. Long press home button has been the recents menu on Samsung phones since the Galaxy S. Putting it on the menu button is pointless, especially when the menu button is used for menus on these phones. You'd also have to mod the system to believe it doesn't have a menu button in order to show the overflow menu (the three dots). Or just enable the on-screen navigation controls... which has a recents button.

The whole idea just seems retarded, sorry, not something I will work on. Also, it's not possible until we can modified the android.policy.jar.

Enable the on-screen navigation controls in the next update, it's the best you're gonna get.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] NuttyBunny:
The best we've done is to have them working by shaking the phone, it doesn't work when picking it up.

It's not an acceptable behavior for it to be included in the ROM, but whenever the new version is online, I'll be happy to post the modified framework and systemui apk files.

I have a lot battery drain when the phone sleep (no wifi).

I think is a modem or baseband problem [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] [MENTION=1897326]googy_anas[/MENTION]

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Besthiroeu:
Hi Kryten, thanks for your hard work so far.

Menu button is deprecated since Galaxy Nexus and Icecream Sandwich few years ago. Last nail in the coffin for menu was introduced in KitKat where all apps (all apps updated to use stock actionbar) started showing overflow 3 dot menu on all phones no matter on hardware setup your phone has. So you wouldn't need to mod the system. It's not major thing tho, I can live with menu button I just thought it's a bit easier to rewamp it.

Keep up the good work!

EDIT:

After a bit of searching it's fairly easy to achieve this. Follow this tutorial, all credits to RK:

This ROM is awesome & works great but one bug I facing is with Bluetooth calls over SIP. I use a bluetooth speaker which I can make calls perfectly fine over cellular network but if I place a SIP call over the BT speaker, I am able to hear the other party but they cannot hear me. Bit weird that it works one way as back on KK GPE it would work fine. I have tried with Googy Max and Alucard but it is still the same. It may not be a high use case scenario but I do use it a lot. To be more clear I have added a SIP account into the default dialer and place calls via that.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] thedoginthewok:
Any way to get the navigation buttons always on while the display is on? They turn off almost immediately after using them.

I've taken whatsapp out of greenify when i last posted here, and went to work, my phone was in my pocket until now, only lost 2% of the battery... Last post 16.00pm its now 20.00pm

I think whatsapp in greenify causes massive wakelocks...

And battery drain...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Funky-kun:
Do you believe it is possible to only activate the part where it lights up the notification screen in black and white when a notification arrives, without using the sensors to detect picking up / shaking? That's the feature that I really like! In any case, I am looking forward to the modded files once the christmas release lands.

Thanks in advance!

now just need the new Rom :good::good::
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Sure, Google tried to depreciate it, but Samsung keep releasing devices with it on.

To force the overflow menu button in an app you have to override the default behaviour and ensure it is on. If you don't, and the OS reports a physical button, the overflow menu does not show.

You found a solution, though, so :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mystique:
My wife was having issues with the stock dialer..

She would click a favorite to dial it would dial, but not show any icon for dialing.

It would connect the call but not show anything.

I have not had this problem..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Piksou:
Actually they don't : the S5 finally gave up the damn button, the left one is now tasks.

So what we are trying to get here is simply on the s4 what the new norm is with the s5.

With Chrome beta it's good for now, hope I won't find many other problematic apps...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] richard-droid:
Very slow rom for me on the i9505. When double tapping a notification to start the app for example hangouts or Facebook it takes several seconds for the app to open. Chrome is very slow and many times the keyboard seems to hang when in Chrome or Google search. Pressing the home button to reach the home screen sometimes takes several seconds, occasionally all I see is a gray empty wallpaper without apps. After a few seconds the wallpaper loads and then the apps.

Sometimes when just lighting up the screen to see if there are notifications and then turning the screen of with powerbutton I feel a slight vibration just before putting the phone in the pocket again. Looking at it I can see that it's lit again as if I pressed power or home again which I didn't.

None of these behaviours was present with danvdh 4.4.x.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bajong:
give this ROM a few months for now use 4.4.4 ^__ _^
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Fair enough, I didn't know that was the case with the S5. I won't be buying one in a hurry. Even so, this is the S4, with a physical menu button, not the S5, so the norm is to have a menu button :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gera4ever94:
Notifications

Has anyone else noticed that the overhead notifications for incoming calls, alarms, etc. are cut off? The first image is a screenshot from my phone running this rom and the last two are images of how the notifications should be. I know it's not that big of a deal but it is quite annoying. Does it look this way on anyone else's phone?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] arkson82:
Same here
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Are they not supposed to be like this?

I can message my partner and see how it looks on her N5.

EDIT:

What widget for the clock in the first image.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gera4ever94:
The last two images in the post are correct but the first is how it looks on this rom, with the options shortened and followed by ... instead of being fully displayed.

Also, the clock is UCCW with a skin I made.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Oh I see the cut off now. On the dismiss part of the notification.

Too late to fix it now, but we can look at it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gera4ever94:
Thanks! Maybe something that could be provided as a separate fix then? It's also like this on incoming calls

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] onlythebrave86:
I had some issues with speed and lag in this rom as well. After a day or two of using, it would start to lag. I would have to restart my phone, and that would temporarily fix the problem.

Another user posted this fix a few pages back and it worked for me. No more issues relating to speed/lag.

1. Open "Googy tweaks"

2. Go to "Misc Tab"

3. Set "Low Memory Killer Profile" to "Aggressive"

Give it a shot and see if it helps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rauschkugl:

I find the first version to be faster. Do you think the kernel is involved in this change?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wfecng:
both the stock and googy have no issue on my phone, no RR, no wifi issue. good battery on standby, drain a bit faster when in use.

my main problem is google plus is too laggy to be use. now back to 4.4.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Thank you very much. There shouldn't be any conflicts between TWRP 2.8.3 and ROM, right?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
I have latest 2.8.3.0 twrp and installed it just fine

Also latest twrp should fix disappeared backups on Sdcard
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Piksou:
Whatever people prefer...

But with the menu now available in most apps anyway the button is less useful, while having recents on the left (1) is quicker and (2) avoids using the fragile home button too much. Once you try it's hard to be back.

If someone was doing a real mod by decompiling the right code or taking files from cm12 it would be awesome. In the meantime, hope the kl fix works :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MaximilianPs:
Any fix for the Ring that is Muted ?

[edit] Got it.. it's the new system about Priority and Notification, I really hate it
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Madaurensis:
Completely agree on that.

I also understand Kryten's reasons, however in my opinion having "Recent apps" on the left button has to be seen as a smart improvement more than a useless option.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] maciejk-pl:
Remapping the hardware menu button to recents is the first thing I do on a fresh flash, every time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I don't see the option to be able to block calls in the dialler anywhere.

Or have I missed something?

Otherwise, can anyone recommend a good call (plus perhaps sms) blocking app please?

I've used NQ Call Blocker in the past, just wondering are there any other better ones out there?

Thanks

For everybody who want "Recent apps" on left button try this - i'm using Nova Launcher and have "Recent apps" on gesture like swipe up.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] primski:
so what would it take to enable OTA for this ROM? you'd need a server and integrate auto update somehow? can it be done?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Dan has his own OTA already on this ROM

A stock GE OTA would mess everything up.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] primski:
ah, so it will work ? when dan releases new version not just when google releases new? cool, cool cool cool.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Not ever when Google releases new versions.

Only when Dan releases new versions.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Blackbird256:
That's what he said. "So it updates when Dan releases updates not just when Google does"

Basically OTA notification will be from Dan not only Google :D

Not like Google OTAs are useful anyway. I always block them with GravityBox.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Both yours and primski's wording seem to suggest that this ROM will receive OTA updates from Dan AND Google

I'm merely pointing out that the OTA app on this ROM is ONLY for Dan's updates.

;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Piksou:
Do those work when in other apps ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] yankoscage:
Sure, but I did a lot of other things than fine tunning kernel. :D

- Location is "Device Only", always; I only turn Location when really need it;

- Google location services has only "Location Reporting" enabled. Google Now is not at its best.

- Advanced Wi-Fi, Google's scanning is disabled, Keep Wi-Fi is "Only when pluggged in";

- Disabled "Adaptive brightness"

Googy STweaks

- CPU: SCHED_MC is set to 2

- Default CPU Governor: OnDemand (Works also with Interactive but battery drain is 15% higher)

- CPU MIN FREQUENCY: 486 Mhz

- LED: Low Light Environment is 15, Bright Light Environment is 30; Blinking effect: FADE-IN is 2, FADE-OUT is 1, Disabled LED fading.

- I/O: Default Scheduller for Internal is "deadline"; Internal read-ahead 1024kB; Same for External SD-Card;

- MISC: Low Memory Killer Profile is "Agressive"

That's it! Last cycle => 3:59h of screen on. :D

Some problems here

Hello!

Hi, I am Marcelo, I am at SP, Brazil and I have a GTI 9505LTE. I installed your ROM but I am having some issues:

- I can´t disable LED indicator when the phone is charging or with low battery.

- Sometimes, (regular) I tap on notifications and I see that app doesn´t open on the first tap. It takes to long to happen.

- It´s commom to see using Nova Launcher I tap on some app and I have to wait for many time to app open.

- I can´t choose the order of things that I want to use on notification bar (wifi, bluetooth, this kind of things)

I expect a ROM faster.... changing app more faster...

Has anyone tested encyption with twp 2.8.3.0? I was running a CM12 rom, and although encryption worked fine, twrp 2.8.3.0 wasn't recognizing the encryption, it would just fail to mount the drive. Not sure if the encryption would be the same in CM12/AOSP versus GPE. I had to ODIN my phone back to stock to get rid of the encyption and flash to GPE.

P.S.: Thank to all the devs that made this rom possible! It's running perfect on my VZW S4 with the kernel hack and cdma fix. Seems much more stable than CM12 at this point.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] BobbyDick:
Are you sure you won't update it today? As I am German, I'll have to spend the 24th with my family and won't be able to flash it until 27th or 28th :D

Good points:

- new material design interface is slick

Issues:

- cant connect with my Netgear router 2.4Ghz+5Ghz, and can't find any recent XXUF... modem/NON-HLOS for i9505 Vodafone Europe to try to fix it? Anyone had a similar issue that was not because of an outdated NON-HLOS?

- some interface hickups here and there but will tweak that around with the kernel settings

Maybe when Sammy upgrade S4 to Lollipop this Led atributte can be solved, right?
