Finally reached 10 posts so I can post here lol.

I just want to say thank-you for this rom, it works great with me. My only issue would be a minor crackling of the audio when my headphones are in, which has actually improved a lot with this update.. I think it's barely noticeable.

Anyway, the battery life is very good, lasts me through school. The interface is also stunning, and I like to play around with themes, etc.

Thanks again, keep the good work guys.

That'll be why I've been using it for weeks as my daily driver then ... oh, wait .... :confused:

So what's wrong with it then? Try giving the devs something to go on. As a bug report "performance as well as stability are poor" doesn't reallly cut it ....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] corb06:
Totally agree, Ive been using this as my daily driver since january started and havent regretted it once. Ok I have had 1 or 2 reboots since 12th of january but that is no more than I usually have all other roms.

This rom is definatly a rom good enough for daily use. I am an very heavy user and use my phone to everything from babymonitoring via wifi camera, to remote control my pc, 100 chats per day, music, movies and workout with bluetooth heart rate monitors and headset. Everything working just fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] exxi:
Here are the main points:

- frequent BT signal drop (smartwatch)

- choppy BT Audio (known issue)

- wifi signal drops

- choppy keyboard

- slow app launch

- frequent crashes of random apps (music, g+, chrome)

- slow and unreliable call initiation

- laggy stock dialer

- frequent wifi lockup (need to restart wifi connection to regain Internet access)

- choppy Internet browsing (pan & zoom)

All these problems are replicable and persist even after clean installation with minimal apps installed.

Buddy something's wrong with your phone...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Soufiansky:
I think you exagerated i little bit , yes some small things are missing but the rom is very smooth , keyboard too , internet browsing is very fast without any lag , i think you have a problem in your phone ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Yeah I have to agree your phone has some issues.

Would you recommend not using titanium backup to restore my apps but instant reinstalling them manually?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Z-Blade:
Out of everything you listed, some apps open slow for me but I think it's got to do with the app not optimised for 5.0 since I have some apps that opens quickly. The laggy dealer is my only annoyance in 5.0 and I can see how this can be a deal breaker for some but in honesty, not the end of the world, I just wait 1-2 seconds.

Bluetooth, WiFi and internet browsing works perfectly fine for me. I am using SwiftKey and Dolphin browser.

Lag sound when lock the screen, is fixed now?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] LimitsX:
Hi, just flashed the latest version!

Seems great thus far. Thank you devs!

I have two questions.

1.) Does the dark materials teal theme for dailer, contact, and settings help with battery life and performance? Or its just for aesthetics?

2.) What is good launcher for overall performance and battery life?

Thanks a bunch! have a great day/night!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
Yes, do a clean install, then install the apps manually. Do not restore Anything from titanium back up.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mutant13:
Hey there just trying to save you some time with theme, you may already know this but, along with the usual res/value/color.xml... I went through all of Messenger res/layout, below are the 6 xml's from layout that I changed....

Hi all i did a clean install but seems my favotite new feature hold back to kill is not working?

I have it enabled but wont work? Anyone else experience this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
I don't have any of those issues. Can't test out the watch so I'm not sure about that one.

I have the I337M.

I would try wiping data.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fatboysh:
Back to kill is working for me. I use zipme app to restore apps only from recovery. Works great. Then i go thru and set up all apps myself
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] N!KE26:
Restore with titanium backup=Dirty install.

Flash rom and do the start screen. Login in to your google account and go to play store. In play store go to own apps and slide to all. Log press the first app you want and tap the rest. When you have checked all the apps you want, hit install in upper right corner. Fast and simpel:). Yeah, the passwords are the pain:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] triebstahl:
Dont know why, but my system always overwrite my framework-res.apk after I copy it and restart the phone`

Any idea?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] N!KE26:
You need to change it before you flash the rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] andyjg247:
Everyone is different but, for me at least. There were very few apps I needed to use TB with in the end. Text messages and a few kids games for my son (to save his progress). Everything else either resyncs or doesn't need its state saving. I do have a good internet connection which helps but redownloading the rest means they are clean installs each time.

I use Nova so my screen setup I can restore from backup. The wireless SSID I log into manually and I do have to manually set up a few bits of config (CF.Lumen, AppOps, turn off location etc). These can take a few mins but in the end the ROM is clean and works well.

Another suggestion would be using something like ROM Cleaner. I run this after a clean install to remove calendar, wallpapers, Bluetooth or anything else that I don't want before it boots.

You really are the exception rather than the rule I would say so it may well be checking things like your battery, dust in the sensors, just age of device etc. My battery is still the original one from two years ago. It can only survive a couple of days of very light use or a day of normal use.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] triebstahl:
I can´t change it on a running rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] N!KE26:
No.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Of course you can.

Just create a zip and flash it in recovery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Reinstalling with Titanium is just fine. The issue comes when you try to restore system apps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] duxxyuk:
I use titanium however I have seen it lock up from time to time... I suggest that you restore in two steps. Select all the apps you want (don't just hit everything) then restore apps only - not data.

Run the play store and update everything.

Then restore the minimum amount of data for your installed apps (choose only the apps for which you need restores for).

That way (imho) you get as close as possible to a completely clean install.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] robertd0619:
Awesome ROM

TB restore is fine, Never had issues with it. I also want to thank our great devs for this great rom. Battery life is amazing. Keep up the great work devs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
I just restore all 156 apps with data. Same as I've done for years.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mscice:
Would there be another option that is disabled that enabled the back to kill?

I mean i have it set to 2s and i open up say gallery and hold back button and nothing happens
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Certain apps will FC when restoring app+data where the backup was performed on a different ROM/version.

A few examples I have found are my Orange, EE and bank account apps, and my BBC football alerts won't work, so for these I restore app only and set up their settings again from scratch.

Such apps however are few and far between, and its a case of restore app+data and see how it goes. For ones that dont work, clear data and restore app only.

I restore as many user apps+data as possible, but for the apps that require minimal or no setup, I restore app only just to be on the safe side.

And of course as mentioned, NEVER use TB to restore system apps. If you do you will be on a hiding to nothing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
Me always do clean flash if i use other rom .

If update just wipe cache,dalvick,system
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MattBooth:
Yeah, bank apps are really picky. Same for Spotify (I've noticed)

I actually got away with restoring GMail's data and Email's data, as system apps, but only because it was from the same ROM. Though, it's still just as easy to simply resetup the email accounts.

Hi , so i made a corrected version of germany csc now /with original pulled feom nk4 off firm. Had unknown network all over/ and now on mobile data i have good signal in bbs too, cell standby starts if im on wifi . can you check there something maybe why the hell is that ?

I loosed sip call over wifi ,3d party app is working but not the dialer implemented ,funny its worked before /nothing to do with csc/its just gone after a full wipe,and started before i touched csc
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] CypherMK:
I also have some audio issues. When I plug in my headphones and play some music I get these little skips a few times per song. This happens on a clean install. Default googy settings.

When I set minimum cpu settings to 1890 MHz, the skips are gone. But that is not an option.

Maybe I have to tweak some more googy settings or maybe another kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] droid_1989:
Make sure you're using the latest Googy Kernel, I had this issue but seems a lot better in the newest version - I do still get it if I lock my screen sometimes - also when i'm on battery saver mode.

One fix was to change the CPU governor to interactive.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] CypherMK:
I'm on the 23-01 build. So I guess that's with the latest googy installed.

I will try with the other governor.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Skyrider:
I just installed the ROM update as of yesterday (dirty) and selected the 256MB ram SWAP.. But when I use SWAP apps to check out the SWAP usage, it shows 1GB swap file. Did AROMA used 1GB swap after all rather than the 256MB swap I selected?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leap_ahead:
is because zRAM is 700 and Swap 256 ! so its normal ..that all I read
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Skyrider:
Good enough for me, thanks :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Bartik168:
As mentioned above TB works fine, but only for non system apps. Before flash I make fresh backup in TB. After flash of new version of ROM I leave phone to install my apps from Play Store and via TB and restore only data.

I didn't change the "Android ID".
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gabib77:
1. On this ROM work activating "other party caller" on call recorder apps?

2. iGO, latest version, Israel, works on this distribution?

3. Antutu Benchmarks work, or it crashes on 26%?

4. On default camera app, you can save photos and videos on external SD card?

5. If I will flash this ROM, from where I shoul take GApps?

Thanks!

I noticed one thing, maybe its not a ROM issue, but i got that since installation. Sometimes i get the info, that my SDcard was removed... but after some seconds the info is gone.

I just found a small bug. When you open the app drawer and then press the menu button, the app drawer icon disappears. There is just a blank space so you can't open the app drawer anymore, a restart fixes it. Don't know if this is a ROM bug or a Google Launcher bug.

Anyway nothing major but perhaps to consider for next build :good:

I'm loving it. Always had audio stuttering on 4.4.4 unless I used KT kernel with a custom profile. No issues at all on 5.0.1 with GoogyMax, one random reboot at the start when I was overloading my phone installing apps from Play Store / web at the same time, none since then. Great peformance, great uptime. How anyone can call this ROM unstable is beyond me.

Just in case you'll update it again - you can slim this ROM down even more by deleting remaining Samsung files in "app" folder like Jamal did. Like "Factory test FB"/Hw Module test etc.... It can cut more than 10Mb.

Anyone have trouble with push notifications when wifi is on (especially with whatsapp and facebook). When My wifi connected, I don't receive push notifications from whatsapp (gmail seems to be working). I didn't have this problem on Jamal's rom (I switched from Jamal's to your rom yesterday)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
Hey bud

There was nothing ever decompiled that would have touched push notifications in this build, I get them just fine using BBM, Gmail and Tapatalk. I have only changed what my changelogs states and there was never an issue with push in GE, we only had to fix silly little things like platform permissions and Gallery ext storage permissions, the rest is optimizing, debloating useless apps availiable on the market and applying a theme here and there to make the ROM sip battery as oppose to drink it with these intrusive bright white backgrounds in every app

I am going to say you have an issue with whatsapp or they are having issues on there side (very possible, happens to everyone)

did you clean flash the ROM? is the whatsapp install clean or restored with titanium backup? restoring the app in most cases is fine but resoring data might cause issues, also if you use greenify make sure you didn't hibernate it by mistake.
