This is from Cyanogenmod:

The CM backupscript.sh in recovery will ignore and remove incompatible applications from your system partition (these are usually non-CM apps that users have opted to install). You must install a compatible app (or app pack) to regain that functionality

You can flash CM12 nightlies directly from CM11 M12 or CM 11 nightlies (no need to wipe), provided you read and followed items 1 and 2

Once on CM12 nightlies, you cannot downgrade back to CM11 without wiping – if you are thinking of just exploring the release, then take a backup of your existing installation if you want to go back to it.

You’ll need an L compatible recovery

Thanks for taking care of us.

What about the title of this thread? Will you continue here or is there a new "official" thread in the make?

What about the unofficial CM12, should we stay on that, or will this one becomes an even more awesome ROM?

what is the difference of JFLTE and JFLTEXX?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
JFLTE is the general name for S4 devices... JFLTEXX is one of the variant (International version) that is available on the market...

For who is interested to update directly (dirty flash maintaining existing data and user apps), I tested this procedure:

I'm using TWRP recovery, but I belive it works also with CWM.

1) Download ROM, GAPPS and save on external (or internal SD)

2) Reboot to recovery

3) Full backup of existing CM11

4) Wipe -> Advanced wipe -> Selected Dalvik, Cache and System partitions (I used also xposed framework, but wiping System will clear also xposed, so no need to uninstall it)

5) Install ROM and GAPPS (I used pa_gapps-modular-mini-5.0.1-BETA7-20150111a-signed.zip available here)

6) Reboot to system

7) For 2 minutes, cyano animation will run

8) "Upgrade of Android..." run and my installation are 229 apps (this step is a bit longer, because ART compiling is slower than older Dalvik)

9) Compiling process took about 12 minutes to complete

10) Boot complete, CM12 official is running.

As CM declared, the update from CM11 to CM12 has been completed correctly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simonbigwave:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] purgalm:
I'm having some issues updating to CM12. Coming from CM12 Optimised by AntaresOne I did full wipe, installed CM, GApps, SU and my SGS4 won't boot - it's stuck on boot animation for like half an hour. I tried this 2 or 3 times and it's always the same :( I'm using TWRP 2.8.3.0.

Even though I try I still don't do well on associating the i95xx to the actual model I have. I have a US S4 on AT&T. The model shows SGH-I337. I also see that some people have put JFLTEXX onto ATT S4 and it works with some adjustments. I used CM11 JFLTEATT (until it was unified)..

What is unclear: will there be a CM12 JFLTEATT or is JFLTEXX the permanent one to go with?

Thanks in advance for clarifying! :cyclops:

It looks like the bug with Bluetooth disabling Wi-Fi is here again. Can you confirm it?

People are reporting weard things, and I'm a bit sceptical about 'everything works' posts, b/c lot of people just flash and don't even test basic stuff, but discover bugs much later, when they get into situations which discovers them.

Solution for the green glow!

Go to settings->display->color calibration->diminish "Green" from 50 to 35% and you will have no more green glow!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Exactly this. When someone says everything works I just assume they have booted the device and opened an app or two and that's it. Usually they're still full of unusual bugs. It's very good that the CM12 thread has a proper bug tracking section, this is something I really like to see and should hopefully make the development process far more streamlined.

Edit: just flashed the 11th Jan build, still serious issues with the proximity sensor. Disappointing
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] worktorest:
What issues do u hv with the proximity sensor? U referring to the screen not turning off during a call when u place ur phone against ur face?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Yeah, the sensor gets stuck and still thinks that there is something there, screen doesn't come back on when it should. I posted a video of it several pages back

Oh ok.. I nv had the problem tho. Could it be hardware related.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Not hardware related, no issues on stock ROM. Will hopefully get fixed when I move to CM12
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pjkiener:
You could also try cleaning the proximity sensor. I've read in this forum, SLimkat, and Noobdev's Cm that people were have problems with the proximity sensor and it needed cleaning. I can't remember how to clean it, but you can try to look for that and it could possibly solve your problem. Disregard this if you've already done that and good luck.

Wow, that app actually worked. No more issues with proximity sensor for now. That was really easy.... why can't the fix be implemented straight into the ROM? :confused: Surely that would make sense... anyway, thank you, this issue was really driving me nuts. Will update if it continues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
It probably is a hardware problem, we least partly. I presume stock Samsung firmware, and the app you installed do a kind of work arounding when sensor starts to misbehave. I never had the issue, and lot of people solved it with compressed air or cleaning the head peace in another way.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
If it was a hardware issue why was it cured by a software fix?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Hardware issue doesn't have to mean total failure.

That is a common way of solving hardware issues, since it is usually cheaper. If say sensors misshenaves, one can try to figure out the pattern, and the way how it happens, and then adapt the software to work around it.

Sometimes it can be done, sometimes it can't. Proximity sensors here usually only has to turn the screen on and off, what makes the issue more simple.

Edit:

Forgot to mention, dealing with dirt is a common problem, so hardware issue is here maybe not the right word. But how would one call it?

Anyway Samsung developers probably develop more stable and smart software(driver) which can deal with it. Open source developers are probably not less capable, but do not have any specifications and data about the sensor and can write something generic and reverse engineer. Considering the situation (Samsung doesn't give information) it is amazing what we have with CM (Although CM uses binary blobs, and sometimes even they get some info under nondisclosure agreement, but I'm guessing here.).

I am really so satisfied with the current CM11 that I cannot force my self to go to lollipop, and I wanted to try Danvdh GPE ROM... but it looks like is not going to happen. I have made a nandroid, and will probably wait for CM12 or maybe another AOSP based ROM (if it happens) to become more stable, and u til things settle a bit.

Since I stopped flashing so often, I started getting much better battery times.

Connection Order

Hi everyone,

just a little question: is there any chance (like with Apps, shell, anything) to switch the priority of connections like wifi/mobile internet? at the moment, if i want to "force" mobile network i have to switch off WiFi (if connected) to get E/3G/H.../LTE working.

Is there anything i can do, that if the mobile-network is enabled, the mobile network is prefered and my device uses not wifi any longer (untill i switch mobile network off)?

I am not 100% sure, but android 5 has any setting i could change to get what i am asking about, so i think there should be a possible way to do this in android 4.4.4 (CM11, M12)

Greetings 135Shadowsoul
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] a103:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 1weener:
I am using the very latest nightly from Sunday, but all of the latest nightlies (since new year) have been good for me. I had been getting minor issues on occasion through December but now everything I do works perfectly. I use GPS and Bluetooth daily simultaneously along with streaming radio or podcasts. I also use and switch between both WiFi and cell data frequently. I do not drop connections or calls at all. My i337 ATT just seems to like CM11!

Appreciate it mate. Will flash the latest one when time permits.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NZgeek:
As far as I know, there's no way to do this. The assumption is that you're connecting to a WiFi network for a reason, possibly either for speed or to avoid using your mobile data cap.

I'm interested to know why you'd want to do this at all.

If the cellular network has priority, the only times you'll fall back to WiFi are if you lose cellular signal or you manually turn data off. If you're mostly going to be turning data on and off, it's just as easy to turn WiFi on and off instead. Turning off WiFi will also give you a small increase in battery life, as the phone won't be sending out occasional "are you my network?" requests.

The only use case I can think of for preferring mobile data over WiFi I'd when there's a resource on the WiFi network you want to access (e.g. a sever or printer), but you want all other traffic to use mobile data. This sort of thing is definitely possible at the Linux kernel level (using IP routing tables), but I'm not sure if Android has the capability of having both WiFi and mobile connections active at the same time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
ty for answere

a shot background information: I am using "Tasker" to let my device do some things without needing me. (If you dont know what Tasker is, its a kind of "IF condition A (and condition B ...) TRUE, THEN DO action 1 (and action 2 ...)")

not the case i think about is: sometimes WiFi connection is not realy good, but phone prefers still wifi. without manually switchung off WiFi, only manually switch on MobileData my phone will not connect to mobile network to avoid bad WiFi (avoid bad WiFi settings does not realy work in this case :( ).

At the moment, one of the "IF" in my tasker is like "If App XY startet THEN DO check settings.db of mobile data is on and if yes, switch wifi off". this settings.db shows me 1 if mobile data is on (even if its not connected) and 0 if off. but i cant do "IF mobile data on THEN...", i only could do "IF 2G/3G/LTE connected THEN..."

thats why im asking. I can switch manually WiFi and mobile network on/of, sure, but this could destroy a lot of my "IF ... THEN DO:::". (IF (...) = Pofile, THEN DO (...) = task; for every1 how dont know tasker)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Thanked you by accident. B/c Tapatalk is stupid app, what says something about me too (since I'm using it.).

What you are trying to achieve would require to test the stability and performance of a wifi network, what is not that easy at all. Samsung stock ROM, for example, has such functionality (on the paper) but it works like ****. It will just switch to mobile network, but won't really test available wifi networks, and how good they are. Or it will do it in a quite relaxed manner, so I have never noticed it reconnects to wifi again, and there were wifi networks with good signal available.

What he said about battery saving is not true. Using wifi will save a lot of battery. Radio drains battery like crazy, especially when the reception is poor.

Anyway, that's life, not everything can be done with Tasker. What for are you using it actually?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
I am not sure if you realy understand what i want. But perhaps its my fail, cause my english is bad :)

Following situation: WiFi on and connected (but REALY bad connection). I switch Mobile network on but it does not connect (because WiFi connected). What i want now is, if WiFi on+connected and i switch on mobile network, mobile network is prefered and WiFi is ignored. Then Tasker can switch off WiFi. If i manually switch it of, some other Profiles may fail later.

This has nothing to do with quality or stability of my WiFi, its only with connetcion my device uses. If i switch WiFi and mobile network on, and could connect to WiFi my phone uses WiFi. I want to switch this priority of networks that in this case the 3g/LTE connection is used and not the WiFi. Normally i have mobile network off, only in some special situation. Like i have said, at the moment im "working arround" this with Tasker looking at a special app and then check with the settings.db if mobile network is active (even if not connected) and if yes, the task does something else then if its not active

Like said in my first post to this topic: Android 5 has any kind of "force handover" iirc... im not 100% sure about, but i saw something like that in dev. settings.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Maybe it would make sense if I have written quality / stability of a Wi-Fi network connection? I thought it is clear about what I'm talking about.

Checking a ' network' as a whole, and its performance would be crazy in your situation. It is clear you care, and have issues with your device connection to Wireless network. The problem could be anywhere. Usually a wifi access point overheats, b/c of weak hardware, and has own issues, but can also lie on your phone (its software, or whatever.).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
Well, i just want to give Mobile network connection a higher priority then WiFi and does not care about how good/stable connection is, you know?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Your words:

" not the*case*i think about is: sometimes WiFi connection is not realy good, but phone prefers still wifi. without manually switchung off WiFi, only manually switch on MobileData my phone will not connect to mobile network to avoid bad WiFi (avoid bad WiFi settings does not realy work in this*case*[http://cdn3]*)."

Now the first sentence 'not the case I think about is:' makes me wonder...

Basically, what you are saying now is 'I don't care how good my wifi connection is, I want my phone to read my mind (or check another parameter?) and guess when I want to use cell data network over Wi-Fi one.

Not to mention what you have written above (what I quoted).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
not realy. but again, sorry for my bad english. perhaps i said just the wrong thing but thought it mean what i want.

What i want to do is: if i switch on mobile network, my device should use it, no metter if WiFi is on/connected.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
That should be no problem for Tasker. Basically then you only need to disable WiFi. So Tasker should always check when you turn the mobile data on, if WiFi is enabled, and if yes, it (tasker) should disable it.

So only issue would be that you want to have mobile data and WiFi at the same time active, but I can not see any sense in it, because you want your device to use mobile network, when it is active.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
Thats the point. Tasker should check when mobile network enabled, but he can not. Not for Profiles. At the Moment i trigger my profile with a speciall app and the running task does following: shellcommand "sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databaeses/settings.db "SELECT value FROM global WHERE name = 'mobile_data';", but i dont want to run profiles if i do not realy need them

but i have not found any solution to trigger profiles on this database change. Thats why i am looking for any way to prefer mobile network and not wifi.

Normally, if i have mobile network connected, and wifi (only) on, device uses mobile network. If device connets to a WiFi-network, mobile network is ignored. i just want to switch this. so mobile network is everytime prefered.

In my first post about this topic i also asked for a workarround, so if you or any1 know how to tell tasker to have a permanent look on the database it would be ok, too.

I think, the easyest way would be to change the priority of used Hardware (mobile network adapter and WiFi adapter) if this is possible
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NZgeek:
That's just me getting my thoughts confused.

If Android did allow you to prioritise mobile data over WiFi, keeping WiFi turned on would use slightly more battery than turning it off. You'd end up turning it on and off in order to get more battery life. If you'd be toggling WiFi under those circumstances, you may as well do that today and get roughly the same effect.

And I 100% agree with you that WiFi is better for battery than using mobile data. It's just simple physics, and for anyone who disagrees (not you, !crazy :)), here's why.

When the phone uses data, it's like two people trying to have a conversation. The further apart the two people are, the more they have to shot to hear each other. WiFi base stations are usually quite close, so the phone might have to just "talk loudly". Cell towers could be up to a few km away, so the phones needs to "shout loudly" to make itself heard. The "louder" your phone is, the more battery it uses.

Hopefully this clears everything up. :cool:
