Surprise!! New build is up. I had some time yesterday to merge cm's latest changes to device trees, vendor blobs and kernel (major changes), if you guys are keeping up with cm nightlys you will know already that cm has re-based the kernel on caf, update vendor blobs including gpu drivers and major changes in the device trees. I had some time yesterday night to merge these changes and make build for you guys since others are struggling. I haven't tested it but there's nothing experimental in there.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712464014

-Major kernel, device tree and blob updates

-Theme chooser updates from cm

-Apn updates

-Removed lock screen custom color options

-TrafficMeter: fix monitor visibility when wifi or mobile data is disabled

-Smal fix in Mms for theming background

-Blacklist: fix not being able to add wildcards and short numbers

-Big French and Japanese translation update thanks to [MENTION=4584270]The Tox[/MENTION] and others

You guys have missed a few builds so refer to this simple changelog to catch up http://files.mahdi-rom.com//ota/changelogsimple.txt

Thanks.

yes... this is THE surprise
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] swieder711:
Noob question: I have a SCH-i545 (VzW) with MDK and a custom recovery. The headline of this area is named "Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506" so is SCH-i545 supported by this ROM?

When searching for an answer, I saw a bunch of messages with SCH-i545 in the signature of the post.

EDIT: It looks like all the phones listed in the thread use the Qualcomm CPU while my phone uses the ARM processor. Based on that observation, the answer seems to be that Mahdi ROM will not run on my VZ phone. Is that correct?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Chelonee:
What a nice surprise! Thank you, Mahdi! :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Not sure really, if cm nightlies are supported then this ROM will work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kenshiroSG24:
The CM nightlies and this rom are built for JFLTE variants so if yours is an LTE variant then it should work but always take a nandroid backup before you install and see what happens.

for anyone else trying to do this

you need to do

1) root

2) file explorer, i used "Total Commander"

3) go to File System Root>system

4) open built.prop with inbuilt total commander editor

5) search ro.securestorage.support=true, edit and change true to false

6) save then file and reboot

I have always had this problem too, up until the previous 28/7 build. (before mahdi left). Kept posting about this issue but mahdi says he doesn't get the same problem.

Which is why I'm on c-rom again even though it is older.

Was going to flash the 30/8 until your post came up. If it still has that issue I'm going to skip flashing it.

Even on the latest 3/9 build (clean flash), the following happens shortly after every boot: (with no user apps installed)

1. Navigation bar disables itself (it was turned on before the reboot)

2. Hardware button lights turn on by themselves (it was turned off before boot).

Super long-standing bug. Is it unreasonable for me to hope that that issue is fixed?

This update compatibility with KTkernel,and Alucard kernel?

Or stay Stock?

Mahdi has integrated the new kernel structure, so not all kernels will work. KT Kernel will not work with this version, but Alucard works just great with it. :) Just flash the new AOSP version (1.3d) and you are good. Or stay with the stock kernel, which is also very good. :)

I flashed this ROM a few days ago and been playing around with it ever since. I have flashed a few ROMs on the S4 (different TW, GE, CM and PA) but non of them I could use as my daily driver because I could find something I was not that happy about.

With this ROM, I can finally say that this is the ROM for me. You just get brilliance out of the box with this ROM. There is no need to mess around with it, it just works great. There is a few bugs but none of it is a deal breaker. The only thing I wish I could do is have the ability to remove system apps like DSP Manager (I prefer V4A).

The battery and performance is awesome and currently, have no plans on changing to Alucard kernel (unless someone can convince me it is that much better).

Keep up the good work Mahdi and I look forward to the next update.:good:
