Anyone with an I545 on T-Mobile? I'm currently using SlimKat on my Verizon s4 and have service issues when rebooting with LTE set as preferred network. Have to set preferred to 3G before I can toggle LTE back on. I was looking to try out this ROM and wanted to see if anyone else with an I545 on T-Mobile was using this ROM, thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Gerxp:
The option "Move to SD Card" in App info is missing.

Where did it go? Anyone else missing it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kta:
I stand to be corrected but I believe that that is not a vanilla/CM/AOSP feature but manufacturer specific, like Samsung's own TouchWiz ROMs for example.

Not sure if there's anything on xposed that enables such feature. Using folder redirects is another option but it can get messy.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Gerxp:
Slimkat, Slimsaberkat have the option. Carbon rom too.

Hi.. for this rom the right kernel version is Kernel-Alucard-V2.7.2a For 4.4 AOSP version or Kernel-Alucard-V1.4m For 4.4 AOSP V2 (NEW CM)?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:
Its v1.4m (new cm)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ricardofago:
Hey guys, after doing some research and trying many builds, I found out that the unknown network type and no mobile data using 2G-only is inherited from the CyanogenMod base. Builds starting from CM11 M10 (including Mahdi) behave this way. On previous builds (CM11 M9, for example), it works fine.

Can anyone please confirm if this is related somehow to my specific network or radio, by checking if you have mobile data and if your mobile network type gets recognized (as EDGE, probably) while on 2G-only (Settings > Mobile networks > Preferred network type)? I don't have a different SIM to try... I'd also appreciate if, in case it works, you could also specify what's your baseband.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kta:
I am replying to this on GPRS. Network is on 2G only and data icon shows G.

My baseband is NH7 and I'm on Vodafone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] feelpt:
sometime ago i was having that problem also, so i start trying everything to solve it: different roms, different kernels, different modems, different bootloaders... everything.. . and the issue is still here.

what i discovered is that if you go in network preferences and change preferred network from "lte" to "3g" the problem is solved, the signal behaves normal and there's no connection drops.

i believe this must be some bad code in the new CM regarding the lte connection, and although it's annoying to see the bars showing bad connection, i think that it works properly and you have signal... it's just a matter of aesthetics
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ricardofago:
Yep, I'm on the same boat. For me, changing preferred network from LTE to 3G works because I have no LTE coverage and 3G signal is poor, so LTE connects to 2G by default. When specifying it to 3G, the poor signal will eventually work. This is actually no solution, 2G still doesn't work, we just forced an workaround to get a recognized network. No aesthetics, we are actually forcing WCDMA over GSM and that sucks.

After staying awake trying to fix it for 24 hours, I'm now giving up. CM messed something up on 2G networks recognition between M9 and M10 and the issue persists on all further builds (Carbon, LiquidSmooth, Mahdi, SlimKat, ...). However, it seems to be carrier-related, as I tested many combinations and basebands that users reported to be fine. The only remaining components are SIM card and network. Unfortunately, as this is not easy to reproduce, I don't see this getting fixed any time soon.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Dalcielo:
Also for the Nexus 4 that the 25/10 was the final but was then released another version to fix some bugs and update the Italian language. I hope it will be done for the S4 because I do not like to see some untranslated strings , and most imported on my Nexus 4, the latest version should be much better than the previous one.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ricardofago:
It's a known problem for all releases after CM11 M9 (not included). I suppose you also won't have mobile data if you switch to 2G-only and your network status will be unrecognized (even though signal and voice calls work properly). Seems to affect some devices or specific carriers/regions, not related to kernel or modem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ricardofago:
That's right, specially now that Mahdi is final... But to be honest this has been around for a while, I don't think we will ever see a fix from CM on KitKat. Mahdi v2.7 shouldn't have this bug though (I haven't tested myself but I believe it was the latest release before CM messed it up), but you'd be stuck with kernels that are no longer supported. Omni and Nameless also haven't updated the base code so they should work properly even on latest builds.

"System UI wurde unerwartet beendet" hat drei Mal passiert bereits, und jedes Mal, wenn ich zu tun Voll wischen musste, wie behebe ich? Fehler Kernel alucard 1.4b? ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] klausel:
Hello cbx572,

first of all this is an english forum so please use the forum language.

So even if you use Google translate make sure u select the right language. (I do not understand the german text either)

Second :system force close can be caused by by many factors (e.g apps or inconsistent settings). It may be kernel related, so if your system fc happened after flashing alucard kernel, flash the original mahdi rom file to revert to stock kernel. Make sure u wipe cache and dalvik. (mentioned in the post before)

If system fc continues you can make a clean install of the rom or switch to another one.

Good luck

Its different... quote: One of the most annoying things is the battery consumption of our devices.There are so many Apps in Play Store but most of them are " a Fairy tale"..

There are different ways to save battery. you could under volt your cpu, disable mobile date.. disable synch ect pp...Since 2010 i play around with different Android devices and here is an easy way to save battery. My way will automatic change to the best settings WITHOUT any undervolting, CPU-Tweaks and you will always be able to send and receive data.. I tried different setups, while normal use:

30h of Power ( Mahdi 01/06 KitKat Rom ART active, KT-Kernel without any tweak)

- GPS-Navigation with Google Maps for 42Min

- Calls about 58:35 Min

- Whatsapp online (all the time)

- FB Messanger Push on

- FB

- Kaiten Mail push active (wrote some Mails)

- 13 SMS sent

- Audiobook via PowerAmp 120 min

- Screen on for 5h

50h of Power ( Mahdi 01/06 KitKat Rom ART active, KT-Kernel without any tweak)

- nearly the same use

- with "automatic Airplane-Mode from 22:30h - 9h

.. sorry mate but i coulndn`t believe that u get 3 days ( 72 h) with mobile data on, GPS navigation for 45 min, full localization service for weather and news, normal auto brightness, calls, fb-chat, whatsapp-chat, no undervolting or any self-made CPU-tweaks.. maybe with two days airplane mode ..

I have location turned off unless I need it that's a massive saver. Use mostly WiFi everything greenified expect fb and whatsapp. Sync off I just check emails every hour or so. Turn WiFi off at night. Underckocked to 1.5ghz with -50uv on CPU and -75 GPU and some other kernel tweaks

New to an S4 and just tried Mahdi v2.7. Seem to like this better than CM11 as it has bit more customization.

1. Is there a way to change the size of icons, rows and columns in the desktop pages? I got used to other ROMs where if click menu button->Settings from Home, it opens settings and allows changes these 3. With Mahdi v2.7, clicking this takes me to Google Settings.

2. I read a post above where one had problems when 'Searching Networks'. Is v2.9 more stable, or are there other issues that appear in this final version, other than this issue?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] feelpt:
1 - With Nova launcher you can easily customize everything you mentioned.

2 - That issue was present in most of cm11 ROMs, including Mahdi. Sometimes more obvious other times you could barely notice it. In my case I solved it by changing preferred networks from LTE (default) to 3g
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sherpa25:
I see, so it's basically a launcher feature. Trying Apex Launcher now and will check out Nova when I can.

Kabayan, you'll be fine with 2.9 :good: Just remember to make a backup of your current rom of use if ever you feel like theres something wrong with the version you installed.

btw Mahdi, yesterday I've tried your ROM and I have to say awesome. I'm using the stock kernel which is perfect.

Tell me, are you working on lollipop or is a future lollipop build possible?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Patozan:
My opinion

This is the best ROM I've tried the past few years. I think I tried well over 30 ROMs, including Lollipop, but Mahdi 2.9 has all the essential features while still keeping it tidy, simple and slim. I can't use any other ROM out there anymore because of how good this Mahdi is. I really hope we'll be seeing more of this king of all kings of ROMs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sherpa25:
Just wondering, was there a reason for not including the feature to use (i.e. move apps to) external SD?

status bar clock doesn't update

Hi!

I installed the ROM yesterday and I've been experiencing a strange thing. Status bar time gets stuck. It does't update. The one on the lockscreen is fine. I've tried:

Looking up here and google

switching automatic date and manual

rebooting

battery out

dalvik and cache wipe

pushing into system stock clock app. Don't think it is the one shown on status bar but still worth a shot ;)

When it's stuck and I go to settings/date/switch on off and switch it immediately gets correct, of course..

:confused:

Any ideas?

Yes, I did wipe everything.

SOLVED! I deleted time-deamon from system/bin. However the battery chart stopped working.

But there is another problem. Today CAMERA stopped working.. I rebooted. Nothing.. The ROM is quite good, I was happy with it, but I'm not going to reinstall every 3rd day..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] popliuc:
Try installing again to instal the Rom , and if you have any xposed modules disable then. Try another time zone
