hey guys, which kernel you recommend for this great rom?

and which recovery? is Philz good enough?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:
You'll be fine with Philz recovery and for Kernel, the stock kernel is pretty good if not Alucard Kernel would be a good alternative. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drumex:
I flashed now for the first time this rom....

Whauuuu!!!! I like exclusive AOSP...

This rom is very very good!!

Greath job mahdi!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drumex:
Hi guys....for this rom you recommended to keep the stock kernel or change with another? Exemple googy 1.2.3?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] feelpt:
Alucard is what you're looking for...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drumex:
Thanks feelpt... Best is googy of alucard for this rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] feelpt:
It's always a personal choice... Sometime ago I tried goofy and the system didn't feel as smooth as with alucard... Since then I don't even try another kernel. Alucard just suits my usage.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drumex:
Thanks for your opinion!!

I have two questions:

How can I do for changing boot animation?

Why I can't change the name at time_daemon in system/bin? Superuser is active...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] feelpt:
For the bootanimation you have apps in post store that do that for you. In my case I always change it in the rom zip before flashing. In the end what you have to do is replace the boot animation.zip file that you find in /system/media

As for renaming files, I use root explorer and never had any permissions issue. Give it a try
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] swieder711:
I have some time off this week and installed Mahdi 2.9 on my Verizon S4. After some initial testing, seems to be working great. THANKS.

One small question. I have the battery in the status bar displayed as text. Is there a way to turn off the animation when the battery is charging? In a previous ROM I just had the color change from white to green via Xposed/GravityBo . I cant seem to find a setting for this with Mahdi.

I tried to tweak it with Xposed/GravityBox. This temporarily changes the icon until I reboot the phone and then it goes back to the system settings.

Great work. Looking forward to seeing you magic with Lollipop!

EDIT: For now I changed the style to "Icon portrait slim" and turned on "Show battery status percent." Not a perfect arrangement, but it stops the animation. Any other suggestions?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] giorgiosandros:
Blazing ROM. :good:

Encountered no FC's whatsoever.

With more features than you can explore in this lifetime.

One thing though: When restarting, Navigation Bar always shows up. Have to Settings > Navigation Bar > Turn on and off again.

Hi

Does it works this rom on F2Fs?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sergiomc22:
Hi. Which versión of Alucard Kernel i have to install? 2.7.2a (old CM11) or 1.4 (new CM11) with Mahdi 2.9 ? Thanks for your reply.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] KaszasM:
Aosp v2/new for 2.9 [MENTION=4273606]krinyo75[/MENTION] yes you can convert it but need alucard kernel ,stock dosnt support f2fs
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:

CAn't change camera resolution

Hi Guys! Can somebody help me please? I couldn't find anybody with similar problems. I can't canche the camera resolution. It immediately FCs. Video cam is ok, but camera takes only 4:3 photos.

Is there any other camera app that will work? I guess Samsung camera works only with a Samsung ROM, right? Because I miss slow motion a bit..

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 8axter:
Thanks a lot for quick help. I "solved" it, however. It turn out there is only one place I have no Internet. If I move 10km away I have it again. But at the same time I have full signal and phone working all the time! Until now I thought it is not possible that there is GSM coverage, full strength but no Internet..

No euphoria lollipop for GT-I9505 ??

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:
I doubt it my friend. :( If ever they do bring it to our device (S4) it will be far from near. But if they do... that would bring a huge smile on my face. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] klausel:
There is a rom for the s4 indeed.

But it is for the i9500, maybe there is anybody who is able to port it for our variant.

I know that recently there have been issues with Bluetooth. I'm currently struggling to connect my phone with my car's Bluetooth, but as the pairing succeeds, the Android Bluetooth process crashes and so does the pairing.

Is there a fix?

Anyone know if this can be flashed on tmobile variant s4?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pparker:
Dear Mahdi!

There will be no lollipop (CM12)?

It would give us a little update!

Please!:p:o:good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] xDroid4Lifex:
Mahdi has been working on EuphoriaOS(lollipop) I used it on my N4. it just hasn't been brought to our device yet.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Soufiansky:

Thanks for the reply.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] yarrou:
Previously used this ROM, everything worked perfectly (except for answering the call with the "home" button). When the design has bothered the material, I decided to return to "holo". But there were problems. When you install a certain number of applications, the phone starts constantly rebooting. This problem is on all firmware based on CM 11. The GPE does not have such problems. How can I decide?

Can someone please share with me tylogs kt settings... I can't find them anywhere!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Sure mate. :) Here you go -> Tylogs Settings

I can also recommend the settings posted by s3icc0. More power/performance, but also really good battery!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
Ah that's sounds more like me, u like performance smooth and speed... Battery doesn't bother me.... Thank you

How do you apply the settings.... Its a text file. So I'm confused how I do this...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
You need a file manager and then just delete the file extention. Then you can copy it in the Ktweaker folder on your internal SD and apply it via the app under restore profile. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
You sir are a legend.... Thank will flash this ROM later and apply the settings :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:

Which modem do you use in combination with Madhi Rom? I'm on ML6 since yesterday but I'm thinking on upgrading to the new 4.4.2 Modem NA1. Anyone tried it already?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MJD:
I wanted to ask what the 'Tabbed on/off' does in the 'Performance' section.

I was wondering if it conflicted with KTweaker if it is set as on as that is what I have flashed recently.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Don't use performance control while using other kernel apps because they might conflict.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MJD:
Yeah, that's what I am asking about the tabbed on/off in performance. Does that want to be set to off?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Aycim:
Is it a known bug,that orientation Sensor/compass are not working, or is it only me?

Realised in GPS status, checked with sensor-readout
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
That option is just to change the way you use performance control so if tabbed is on you can swipe between screens, if tabbed is off you can swipe from the right to show you the options. Its nothing to do with the kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Sensors are working fine for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Aycim:
Do you have an Idea, what went wrong on my side? After restoring my backup from stock, everything worked. Reinstalled ROM sensors are messed up...

Could you please check (with senosor readout), if there is a Orientation sensor on your device?

Edit: Btw in OTA-Center it says it can't read Rom-prefferences, so it can't check for update. Is that normal?

Edit2: I can't manage uploading screenshot... But there's still no orientationsensor, but 4 unkown sensors.

For that i made the way direct from stock to you Rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
This is from CPUz app. Might be something to do with your modem, I'm using an old MGA modem. The OTA app isn't finished yet.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Aycim:
As i can see, do you also have this 4 unknown sensors and no orientation sensor.

Have you tried a Compass-app? Does it work?

Maybe its the modem too.. Don't know.

I'm now trying if the official test-firmware with android 4.4 will solve the Problem.

On CM-Nightlies the sensor is also missing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Aycim:
So, just made the way to Samsungs Android 4.4 and checked the sensors.

On this firmware XXUFNA1 with also another Modem all worked correct.

But installing this Rom will lead to same results with non-working compass.

Hope you can find out what's the reason.

Good look, thanks for your work, and greatings from Germany!

Anyone else have a Halo-related bug wherein some apps don't open windowed despite you pinning them to it? Instead they open full screen. Trying to open something like FAQr in Halo while running a game, for example. Used to work on 4.3.1, but not here.

Same goes for when, say, I open an SMS notification, in which it'll show the message in a pop up. But when I want to go to the main message list from there, the app jumps to full screen.

Had the same issues back when I tried ProBAM (the only other i9505 4.4 ROM now that has Halo). Anyone have a solution to this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MJD:
Google Calendar notifications open fullscreen for me but that is the only app I have seen do it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MJD:
I've just noticed that with this rom that any apps I download on the PlayStore via my computer are not pushed to my device like they normally are. There is no problem downloading them via the PlayStore app and if I look in the PlayStore app at the ALL tab of my apps the apps I have downloaded via the web are there, just not installed.

Anyone else see this happening?

Hi Guys

im still experiencing an issue on this ROM with it freezing when opening a notification from the pull down,

I'm using KT Kernel and have tried different settings on it from the KT shop?

Is anyone else experiencing this? as its rather annoying?

the ROM is perfect other than that
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
What do you mean by freezing, does the phone reboot? If you can reproduce it and get me a log that would be great, also just try the stock kernel and see it helps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
It just freezes up for like 30 seconds, i cant recreate it as it seems to be random...

but its if i pull down my notification drawer and then click on the notification to go to the app, this is when it freezes sometimes

It goes to load the app by first closing the notification drawer and this is where it freezes, the app drawer will freeze half way up the screen and would let me do anything until it has unfroze (around 30 seconds) happens about twice a day
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
I have experienced that on few occasions, I think its to do with the new GPU blobs we are using from the nexus7 because it only started happening after that. If it happens twice a day next time go to otacenter app and create a bug report.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
I don't know what it is aha, it's just rather annoying and it's the only problem on this rom, and I can't recreate it on purpose! Aha as soon as it happens next (it happened earlier) I will generate the bug report :) hopfullu that helps
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dan0s:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
I've started a build, I'll do a quick test then upload.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
New build is up,

First of all we have a give big thanks to Moose0704, dsmitty166, Manelscout4life and Nate for working so hard on the new website and server, there's still things that need finishing like the changelog section but we have to agree it looks amazing, so if any of these guys pop in be sure to thank them. Also the ota app should work from the next build as it has been updated by dsmitty166.

The changelog is in the OP, there's a detailed and short one. Please check the detailed one if you have time it will give you a better picture of what has gone into the ROM this past week.

For people that are using the experimental kernel please download the updated one because there have been changes in the ramdisk.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
The Ota app in the release before does not have the new Internet address, so it is not possible to auto update. Just download the new release, as far as I know, the app is fixed there. :)

Are you using the experimental kernel? If not try it, it has overclock and a custom hotplug with touch boost, just remember to switch to ondemand governor as its has been optimised, its a very smooth kernel compared to the one included in the ROM.
