Hey, I am new to this ROM and to S4.

I've installed the rom, and it looks great. Although i found a small bug: when changing the lockscreen targets, the ring is not centered (see screenshot). If it's been talked about i appologize.

Also i would like to make a request to [MENTION=4593553]Mahdi786[/MENTION] if it's possible. Could u port the TRDS from slimkat, or any other rom that has the dark theme button? Thanks in advance.

Someone a solution for whatsapp?After some time I don't get the messages immediately.Most of them first after opening whatsapp.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
I had this problem when i was on the S3. It was solved for me with a clean flash. Try that and see if that helps.

And u can also try push notifications fixer from play store and see if it helps
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
That is weird. I don't have this bug. Did you change the dpi maybe?

Had that problem, too. Switching to ART solved it for me. You could also try the app Push Notifications Fixer v4.1 :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
Yes, i did change the dpi. I understand now. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bigdam:
i tried already PNF but doesn't help.I switch to art and see if better.thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
Another question: when your phone is plugged in and charging, does your led stays on all the time, or it's blinking? Cuz` mine is blinking, and i want to know if it is normal... And no, i don;t have any notification...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
My led stays on. I'm not sure, what could be the difference. :confused: Are you using KT Kernel? Ktoonsez added different LED modes to it. Maybe you are using a profile, which modifies the values?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
Yes, i am using KT kernel, and i downloaded a profile from the market, so this must be it :)

Thanks.

Can we get scrolling effects like in this video? He is also on mahdiRom, but on nexus 5.

It would be cool. I had that kind of effects on my old S3, and i really liked them :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:
You guys truly deserve the rest. Have fun with the fambam guys and last... thank you for everything! :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dunhillpanda:
Will wait for the pull down status bar freezing to be fixed then this rom will be as good as GOLD :victory:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ench18:
Do any of you good folks have the stock/AOSP SMS App? Hangouts isn't cutting it for me. :(

EDIT - Found the solution
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
For anyone willing to try: The [MOD] Dalvik+bionic library optimization - Flashable Zip works for our device, too. I flashed both files yesterday (although I'm using art not dalvik) and the roms feels even smoother. :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] asem:
Pleasantly surprised by the features and stability of this ROM. Great work guys , kudos to the developers.

Hi

When i try to make a call the phone freeze and reboot

Any fix for that?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Its working for me on 20140118 build. Did you dirty flash the rom? Try a clean install. :)

You use stock dpis?

Yes :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
I must say I am impressed with this ROM! U will see for yourself in the screenshots.

I am using KT kernel and the "balanced bull" profile. It feels no lag at all, and the battery is just amazing!

The only thing i can complain of is when i get a phone call, it takes about 2 seconds for the screen to show me who's calling... The phone is ringing with the screen off. It's a bit annoying. Do any of you knows what to do to fix this?

And also there is any way to make the hardware buttons not to turn on the lights when u press the screen? Or to change the duration while the light stays on?

Thanks for your work [MENTION=4593553]Mahdi786[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Wow, really good screen on time! You can disable the lights on the buttons in Settings -> advanced -> sensors :)

You could try to adjust the max screen off MHz in KTweaker -> extra -> screen off profile MHz to "scale max" and see if that reduces the lag when you get a call.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
I don't want to turn the lights off completely. I just want them to be lit only when i press them. Or if to change the time how long they stay on to 1 second instead of 5.

As for the screen off mhz it is set to 486. I don't know if it's small or not. I'll try to increase it and see what happens.

Thanks.

Just watched your video out of curiosity. Looks very nice. Will download it and try.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] daveve:
First download link is not working and on the second link i can't download the newest rom.

The newest one from the second link is the rom from 11-1-2014 and not the one from 18-1-2014.

Solved by downloading from Mahdi site.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
I think it's only for nexus rom... I didn't find it either.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ViruuZ:
In my Opinion THE Rom! Many features from other Roms, good battery life (same as on Google Edition), really smooth too. Perfect :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Active Display was removed, because it caused some bugs. Thats why we have Lockscreen Notifications instead now. :)

If you want Active Display you could go one version back.

Does anyone knows if we can disable fast dormancy on our S4 ? I've searched on google but no luck...

On mobile data i get a lot of fast_dormancy wakelock...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Hi Kofe :)

I found this tutorial to disable fast dormancy. It says, it is for Galaxy S3, but it should work with our S4 as well

Hey there,

After installing this amazing Rom, I can't download and install a few apps, I had before on my device.. For example the Amazon App.

I also looked in the build.prop to change the product build etc.. but they're right.

Please tell me what I can do instead? :o

Another question is: How can I blacklist apps in halo? Because there's no app ico shown in App Drawer for Halo... like in PA :/

Thanks for answers. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] asem:
I really think this lock screen notification feature is a beautiful subtle addition in comparison to that messy active thingy... much appreciated guys
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bigdam:
go to settings ->apps,tick on app you want to blacklist,there is an option.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
Is there a way to have the notification go across the whole screen like carbon....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] C_M@#u77:
Sorry maybe this question was all ready answered, but I would like to know when is the next update of this very good ROM, and which features will be included on it?:confused:

The ROM it self it very smooth and all the apps are working without probs.:good::cool:;)

Appreciating the answer.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:

I'm really in love with Mahdi Rom! Using it with KT Kernel and my own settings, always Wifi and mobile data on, some apps greenified and contolling brightness with Lux Auto Brightness, this is what I got. :cyclops:

Thanks Mahdi for this great Rom! :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HaGii:
Do all features of Mahdi Rom work with KT Kernel? :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Your welcome :)

I can also recommend to flash [4.4/4.4.x][PATCH] Qualcomm-optimized Dalvik & Bionic libraries on top of it. They seem to be a bit newer than the files Madhi already inclueded in the rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HaGii:
Thanks. :)

But te optimized binaries are useless when running ART and I'm using ART. So thanks anyways. :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Heh, I thought so, too. :D But it seems like at least the bionic dalvik patches have an influence on art as well. Give it a try ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] SV3NNER:
The update of 17/01 gave me some problems with updating some apps. When i restart phone the app keep updating but it downloads nothing. when i go into playstore and update there, it downloads and try's to install the app. when completed it says that there is ot enough space on the internal memory.

The only way around is to completely remove the app and delete the data from the Data/app-lib folder
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HaGii:
Okay, will install it.

I bot another question: I cant install some apps, because they appear AS 'not compatible' with my device... But in build.prop there are the right lines for let the Play Store think I got a stock GS4. Please help me, I cant install Amazon app for example...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] störte:
I like this Rom. I am missing just one thing. To have the posibility to change the DPI out of the box without textdroider or others.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Had a similar problem. When I wanted to restore some apps with Titanium Backup it only worked when I switched back to dalvik. :eek:

Did you try to switch to dalvik, install the app you want and switch back to art?

That's an odd bug. Honestly, I can think of nothing else than flashing the rom again. :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] SV3NNER:
Will flash again and try, hope it helps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Final battery results. I' really happy with this Rom! :victory:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] daveve:
That are good results. Which kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Ktoonsez newest kernel. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] C_M@#u77:
Sorry Chelonee, how do i add the ktoonsez kernel to this rom?:confused:

I've searched in the forums and getting different answers. Do i copy the boot.img file to the zip and that will work; or i have to open the boot.img file and replace the kernel file? If so, how do i open the boot.img file. Sorry for the question, i am quite new on this stuff :confused::rolleyes::o. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
No problem, it is really easy once you know how it works. :)

1. Download this Version of Ktoonsez Kernel This version is made for aosp 4.4.2 Roms like Mahdi Rom.

2. Place the zip (don't extract) on your device

3. Reboot into recovery

4. Wipe cache and dalvik cache

5. Flash the previously downloaded zip file

6. Reboot and you're done

:highfive:

If everything worked as it should you should see the KTweaker app in your app drawer. That's it, no need to extract or copy any boot.img files. I hope this helps! :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] C_M@#u77:

That is really easy:) not like said in other forums :rolleyes:. Appreciating your help. :good::good::good::highfive:

Hey mates, I tried to install this rom once but I had problems when booting. I got it to boot but it was constantly restarting. Do you know what could it be?

I'm jealous of you guys getting that amazing battery life and I would like to try this rom again! ?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9505G mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
Maybe it was just the download, which was corrupt. When you install it, do these steps:

1. in recovery cleare cache and dalvik cache

2. do a factory reset (or even better: In PhilzTouchRecovery -> "clean to install new rom")

3. flash Mahdi Rom

4. flash Gapps (use the gapps package linked in the opening post)

5. after everything is flashed, do a factory reset (in PhilzTouchRecovery normal factory reset, not "clean to install new rom like before)

6. Reboot and let the device settle :)

When the device boots fine, you can flash another kernel if you like. I flash KT Kernel right after Gapps and never had a problem, just try what works best for you :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dunhillpanda:
Any luck for the fix on the freezing status bar pull down? ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
I didn't encounter any freeze while using this rom. I only had one random reboot once while opening browser, but that's it.

I am using latest KT kernel with balanced bull profile.

I will flash the new version as soon as i get home from work.

Loosing root cause using Philz recovery? I don't see the relation but one can install latest SuperSu binaries from Philz recovery also on his late versions.

Just to let know of a useful feature if needed by somes ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tylog:
The reason for my Question is the feature with root settings yes and no and a lot of people press Yes and lost root with it I do not use the Recovery, so I do not know if that's still the case, this is not in twrp and the reason for my question.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
I believe aospa is using Kush's superuser, my kernel is missing some bit in the ramdisk, which could be the cause of loosing root, you could easily flash SuperSu in recovery and you will have root back, I might see if I can add the necessary bits to the ramdisk to make Kush's superuser work
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] makomek:
I'm having problem with externalSD not showing, anyone with this problem?

I just tried a different kernel and it work fine so I guess the your new kernel doesn't show extsd.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
Ah yeah forgot that sorry, it was only with su binaries implentation on (some?) 4.3 Touchwiz rom iirc,the message displayed was a feature/additional precaution indeed but could leads to root lost if "yes" chosen you're right.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Are you using my ROM? Which kernel is it working with?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] makomek:
Yes I'm using your rom with your new 12/22 kernel and my sd is not showing up so I tried the chronickernel and it work .Other than that your rom is awesome.
