I'm still trying to investigate flickering screen problem in dark ambient light. So i flashed a few ROM's and never had problem with ROM's that had Samsung auto brightness .i.e another GE ROM's, TW etc. but encounter the same issue on CM11 autobrightness based ROM. Of course I'm not sure but I suspect this is it ...Is there anyone who would be able to make a flashable zip to revert CM11 auto brightness to original Samsung one ? Now I'm on another GE ROM but Danvdh ROM is simlpy the best :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mr. 69:
I have this 'flickering effect' too ...also when adjusting the brightness level too low manually.

Wanted to share that there is a new Googymax kernel out and the nightmare governor is fixed.

Also fauxsound has been updated. Music sounds amazing.

Im sad to say i've moved on to another device now. Thank you Dan and everyone else, kernel devs and users who helped me learning :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Just out of curiosity, which phone you have now?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] opticus44:
HTC One (M8) with a full google play edition conversion, and for anyone that wants to know or even care, I like it :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] clAssymeerKat:
Also just moved to a new phone, thanks Dan for all your hard work this has always been my favourite rom. :laugh::good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mystique:
What is the M8 that the i9505 isn't?

For the money I do not see that much of a difference.

YMMV

I would love to put a Snapdragon 805 in the s4.

I prefer the feel of the s4 to the s5. I picked up a Note 3 style faux leather battery cover, more grip than stock. It's OEM from the Black edition s4.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] opticus44:
Thing is, my S4 got stolen at work, if it didnt, id probably have it till the day it died.. Anyways, my travel insurance covered it and I wanted to try something new :) And with the full GPE conversion I get OTA's aswell :)

Just flashed this and all runs well. But it didn't boot when I flashed googy kernel with it? I'm not new to flashing ROMs etc, Any idea what is wrong? Or am I having a blonde moment ? TT hanks :confused::thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ritvars:
Does this ROM have fixed sound distortion? If not, then update would be cool, because this is my Daily driver since ever and I don't want to switch. Basically, S4 doesn't recognize any headphones below 16 ohm of impedence, and for me even 32 ohm headphones. Strange, original ones has 35 ohm and everything is fine with them.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
Can you make sure you flashed ge kernel not cm kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mystique:
I am going to suggest that you try the 116 version.

There have been a few people with the same issue and it seems to be related to over clocking, and that the developers implementation does not work for everyone.

116 has no over clocking.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oXydead:
Well, it does nothing for me when i open/close the cover.

Dan,

I have to say your hard work have made your Rom our daily driver for quite long. I'm sad to leave this thread and I hope to see your efforts on the Note 4 Ville who knows.

I have but to thank you and thank all the kernel devs who have supported and trusted your Roms ad much as we all did. Good Luck

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SkyKer93:
I can wait, they update Android too fast if you finally got your phone stable and working with all tweaks they create a new one. You get some cool new features but mostly everything you like isn't working like before or is unstable.

God no stop this ultra fast updating just finalize the system and take your time before releasing it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Morbidx13:

looking forward to L :D

why s5 has virtual buttons lol?????

also i hope the kernel don't make hell in the rom

also, i am afraid it will take a lot, just like 4.4, it took like more than a month to be on s4 GPE

So is it known whether the i9505G will get Android L or not?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] yusuo:
Everybody but Samsung and LG have confirmed their plans for Android L. Im sure it will happen but Samsung are always a little slow on the get go
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] elzangi:
I tried to search about my problem in this thread, but I can't find any similar or solution.

When I'm listening a playlist with GooglePlayMusic one track have a certain volume, next track has higher or lover volume. It isn't EQ because same problem appear also with EQ off so it's annoying to not have same volume level for all tracks...

Another little problem is that rarely EQ setting aren't applied so in order to apply them I've to switch off then switch on the EQ functionality.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] maciejk-pl:
This is not a problem with the rom. The problem is the fact that Google Play Music, both application and streaming service, does not provide any normalization/replaygain option. As All Access user I'm waiting for that to come also. However if you are playing local files only solution may be to switch to a different application that supports replaygain, provided that replaygain info is present in the id3tags. Further reading if you do not know what I'm talking about: http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=ReplayGain

You can hardlimit and compress the audio on the fly probably, but that will produce unlistenable results and eat a hell lot of a battery juice.

So, until the day that Google introduces some kind of replaygain on/off option to the streaming service and application, you are out of luck. And honestly, that one missing thing is the only bit I do not like about their All Access. Otherwise, great.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Use xplore file manager before unrooting, grant full root access in settings of the app, then navigate to /root/system/apps then find any apps you don't want including your print aap, I always get rid of that one because I just don't use it. Be careful if you remove the wrong system apps you can easily bork your ROM - if you do, just go into recovery and wipe system then reflash your ROM, or restore nandroid (whichever is fastest for you)

To unroot your device, just open up the SuperSU app, go into settings, and find the option for full unroot and that's it done.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Every other GPE phone has announced L so no reason the s4 won't get it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rauschkugl:
That's not what he was asking for. He doesn't want to unroot, just remove the entries from the android settings.

If you just uninstall them the entries will still be there and give you force closes.

---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

I am new to all this rom/flash/kernel thing! Till now I don't exactly what kernel is and what is doing!

I flashed this awesome rom from the stock Samsung with fingers crossed that I don't break my phone! :o

And I made it just fine I think!

Now I saw that there is an update and I am not sure if it is necessary to to it!?

I think I still have the stock kernel, and I don't know if it's necessary to change it, and how to change it! :confused::eek::banghead:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ritvars:
Kernel takes about 1 minute to flash (at least for me). I think you can pretty much stay with your stock kernel, if not, then Alucard or Googy_Max is the way to go.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Stefan0vic:
Reflashed stock FW UGN8, wiped all, flashed this rom again and still lose signal on lockscreen.....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Stefan0vic:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mohamad.Jo0:
no my friend

the latest is GNI2
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Stefan0vic:
thank you for your reply,

do you think that if i flash GNI2, my modem gets updated and I will no longer face these issues on google edition rom?

Btw. My CSC is PHN. Will this matter flashing a new stock rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
It's better to flash a stock rom instead of just the modems, a stock rom updates many things as well that are already tested to work together
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] maciejk-pl:
NI2 rom is from Brazil (at least for now) and I'm from Europe. Does that matter? Also, can I flash the probably upcoming EUROPEAN NI3 rom on the top of that?

Does the origin of roms and modems really matter?

Sorry for that slight OT.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Not really, I just look for XX modems and flash the rom, I'm in Costa Rica and last time I flashed the latest TW rom for Italy and zero issues. Just make sure is not a TW rom from a specific carrier (Claro, TIM, Sprint, etc)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
The modem from the latest firmware that is specific to your country+carrier is usually the best recommended, failling that, XX modems for Europe.

Having said this, just give it a try.

I'm in UK on EE, and currently using that Brazillian VJUGNI2 BL+LTE+GSM with no problems whatsoever.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] maciejk-pl:

2. try cleaning your proximity sensor.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] TigaTiger:
1. If you're on the international version (i9505) you need to flash a custom kernel. Eg (Alucard, Googy, KT). If u have already flashed one of these, try another kernel. I had random reboots on googy kernel and i fixed it by flashing kt.

Or for a better cleaning take apart phone and clean the proximity sensor window and speaker grill while you're at it. I used a qtip with IPA and all my proximity sensor problems were fixed. And the window is the cleanest I can ever recall.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
I wouldn't have thought so. I can't see how a bootloader could affect the battery to such a noticeable extent. I think for now the battery drain whilst on data is something that us Google Play Edition ROM users are going to have to live with. Fortunately it's only a relatively small battery drain increase than TouchWiz & AOSP. Let's see if Lollipop fixes this issue.

I have a problem with signal strength on this rom with 4G. When the signal is below something like -108dbm it will show no bars and the signal reading says 0dbm 99 asu. The signal is fine but the reading is wrong, on a Samsung rom it shows correctly. How can I fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] japinder:
I can confirm that when the headphones are plugged in, the icon doesn't appear like it does on Samsung TouchWiz ROMs.

However, this in no way affects the functionality of headphones. I'm able to use original Samsung as well as aftermarket Apple in ear headphones/earphones without any issues. I prefer the Apple ones, they exhibit better bass. When unplugged, music automatically stops.

So just a cosmetic issue I guess.

You might want to try out some other headphones/earphones, or try to clean the phone socket/earphone jack etc.

Jp

...tapatalking...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
It is not an issue, it's how GE/AOSP ROMs work..
