Post #2085 updated: again, again and again...

New download link for NON-OC XXUDOB5 v1.4.6

New download link for NON-OC XXUDOC5 v1.4.6

Added and tested Faux Intelli-plug and FauxSound code, made by Faux. Thanks to him for his work.

Both versions now fully supports the FauxClock and FauxSound apps.

I have only tested the XXUDOC5 version, but the XXUDOB5 is build from same sources. Only difference is the build.prop.

The NON-OC_TESTVERSION / TESTVERSION2 has been removed!

NON-OC_XXUDOB5 and NON-OC_XXUDOC5 are the new files.

Both versions will later on also be added more TCP Congestion and Fast Charge.

Both these version has proven to rock stable, BUT you never know.

So therefore ...

Please test and let me know ASAP guys.

Regards.

Hey bro

I'm working on it right now. To make sure everything should be OK I had to made a new PIT file from my phone running Lollipop v5.0.1 - the other was for 4.4.2.

I'll make a PIT testflash and then pack a Odin file for you.

So stay tuned.

Regards.

EDIT

PIT file flashed and as you see...back in business. It's very important you follow my instructor step by step.

Stay tuned.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] alidarkmaster:
OK BRO i have a gift for you from my nation thanks a lot man thanx i am looking forward
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

I just made a full XXUDOC5 firmware flash including the pit file.

But...since my phone is ok I have no idea if this works.

I'll upload now and when ready I'll be back with flashing instructions.

If this doesn't work, we need to flash the pit first and then the full firmware.

Regards.

had 44800 something last time! and i was over oneplus one :) but now under
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] alidarkmaster:
OK BRO i hope it is work ok i am waiting sorry for troubling you
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
OK Bro here we go.

Below you have 2 download links.

1st link: Samsung fully stock XXUDOC5 with PIT file included.

https://mega.co.nz/#!IYUVxaiD!sUi2FZcR9dpLZSbkNVVmRq044QDDVGyaG1tE8zqynpM

2nd link: msm8974.pit.

https://mega.co.nz/#!Jd9UCABb!hxws3zqdpx_j5OGR5yaAsgRfXn03F79Ho7kjwDKy0mw

Download both and put both in a new folder on PC.

Unpack the Samsung firmware .zip file to get the .md5 file.

Use 7-Zip for this! - important.

Make sure phone is fully charged.

Now make sure to Remove/Un-install Samsung KIES from PC and reboot, if installed.

Start up Odin v3.09.

In Odin; now press the PIT button and select the msm8974.pit file you just downloaded.

In Odin; make sure Auto Reboot, Re-Partition and F-Reset Time is MARKED.

Put your phone (GT-I9506) in download mode (Odin mode).

Now connect to PC using a known working USB cable. Important!

If cable is NOT OK / FAULTY, you will fail.

Wait for Odin to recognize. Look for a ID:COM changing colour.

Now press Start.

When done, phone will reboot and if we're lucky it will now work.

You should now flash the FULL Samsumg Original you downloaded and unpacked.

This to make sure everything is being reset.

IF phone does NOT work after reboot...

Get Phone back to Download mode (Odin mode) and flash the FULL Samsung Original you downloaded and unpacked.

In Odin v3.09 flash as AP.

Make sure Auto Reboot, Re-Partition and F.Reset Time is marked - Nothing else.

Connect phone and wait for Odin to recognize it. Look for a ID:COM changing colour.

Now press Start and wait.

DO NOT remove phone until the flashing is FULLY completed.

Odin will tell you when.

Please let me know how it goes.

Good luck.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Have now FauxSound implemented and working. Intelli-plug almost done, still needs a little more coding.

Will be available in both OC and NON-OC XXUCNJ versions.

Stay tuned.

Hey [MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION],

Thanks for excepting our request.

Flash your latest non OC kernel, smooth as butter.

I installed DOB5, feel no reason to upgrade rom as it have nothing interesting...lol.

Anyway I had debloated mine and feel lazy to debloat the new Rom.

Maybe with a newer update, I might the consider.

Edit: there is no difference between the two kernel except build.prop.

Edit : [MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION], hey bro...latest non OC kernel working very fine with fauxs'apps enable.

Waiting for more goodies (TCP congestion and fast charge).

More importantly, De-odex..[emoji56]

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

This looks like a BAD cable.

It can't even see if the PIT file is missing. As far as I remember it should have said something like PIT file not found. Some time ago I helped a guy with a similar problem. We tried everything, just like now and nothing helped...until a friend of him told him to try another cable and it worked in first try - WITHOUT flashing a new PIT file.

I have personally never had this problem, but had other problems like I couldn't copy files to phone.

I then purchased a new high quality FULL connected USB cable and it worked.

Funny thing was, that the cable I had was working perfectly on e.g. my Apple TV but not with my Samsung phone.

Also my new cable is quite short, 60cm.

You MUST try another cable.

Regards.

EDIT

In some cases, not even the original Samsung cables works. Also the USB port on the PC can course troubles.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Sounds strange, runs perfectly on my phone and others, e.g. xda-member kotaxor has been running this without problems.

Have you been playing with some settings?

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Information about KitKat 4.4.2 XXUCNJ1 kernels with Faux apps support.

Right now running final test on new 4.4.2 XXUCNJ1 - NON-OC kernel, build with FauxSound and FauxClock support.

I'll then build and test a XXUCNJ1 - OC version.

Stay tuned.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
Nice..But can't go back to test..Lol

Love lollipops too much and had deleted my nandroid backup, anyway it was backup too long ago.[emoji56]
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

No problem.

As you know I have 2 phones. One running Lollipop v5.0.1 and one running KitKat 4.4.2 XXUCNJ

It's just a MUST have, when working on two different systems.

Btw. What do you think about this PIT file problem, any good ideas or suggestions?

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kornelius1982:
I only changed governor to interactive with System Tuner app and phone rebooted after minute or two of using it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
Hey bro

I think chances is high due to cables.

I, myself have not come across having to flash PIT file since S2 days.

You are absolutely right about Samsung cables...I have six cables at home, only 2 are for flashing, the rest is for charging.

Even when flashing 5.0.1 the first time, I have Odin showing failed when using cables which I have in hand. Until I use a " correct" cable, the flash went smooth. And that is not even a Samsung original cable, just a cheap cables I got from somewhere.

Based on experience, do not use the cables that always been use for charging.

Cheers

Governor is in default interactive, There a chance system tuner does not play nice.

4.4.2 to 5.01 How?

Hello!

Im using KitKat 4.4.2 XXUCNJ (wonderful & stable) and im reading this thread every day and i now think its time to move on to Lollipop.

Since the new section (Lollipop) is under construction, i am wondering what files should i use to go from 4.4.2 to 5.01.

I want to use the Non OC kernel

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Post #2085 updated. New download links for ALL Lollipop 5.0.1 insecure kernels.

So what has happened? - Well, found and fixed a problems with two GPU governors.

The simple_ondemand governor and cpubw_hwmon governor both crashed and made the phone reboot when selected using FauxClock.

Problem with the ondemand governor fixed. No more crashes when selected.

Problem with cpubw_hwmon governor not fixed. Governor has been therefore been disabled.

Since the bug was present in all the insecure Lollipop kernels, I had to rebuild them all and update all download links.

I strongly recommend to update.

Also added an OverClocked XXUDOB5 version for people running that system.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro.

First download the below Lollipop v5.0.1, latest release XXUDOC5 Open Nordic:

Download link:

https://mega.co.nz/#!ZUdjVR5J!W6Ugxpe2XbI6qZlHkW4s-oCR0GKLROvSaP1k3ziO6aA

Unzip the file using 7-Zip to get .md5 file.

Flash firmware as AP using Odin v.3.09.

Be sure to turn OFF phone and remove the battery for few minutes, before you enter Download mode.

That's all.

After flashing the full firmware, you can optionally install a custom recovery. I recommend TWRP v2.8.5.0.

Using the custom recovery you can now flash my insecure kernels, OC or NON-OC from post #2085.

Regards.

Using the new (1.4.6 - 30 March 2015) non OC kernel for DOC5 from post #2085 for last 12 hours. No reboots. Everything seems snappy. Great work DeHawk. Thanks for your continuing efforts.

Update: Now downloading 1.4.7 non OC kernel. Will report back after testing. If this is the real deal I will change to OC kernel tomorrow. Once again thanks DeHawk for your tireless efforts.

hey bro i tried some new cable but there is the same problem not any change every time trying to flash the rom alone odine requests pit file and with pit file the same error my phone code is msm8960 but the pit file that you send me is msm8974 is this can be the problem you think ?

thanx and best regards
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] GTI-9300:
DeHAWK do you mean this App for your Kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Yes, exactly. This is the one I use and it's 100% compatible with my kernels, just as FauxSound.

You can control and set almost everything from it. All you need to do is find the settings that suits you best.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
And another FauxSound.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Houston... we got a problem!

Brother, if this is right and you got a msm8960 CPU - then your phone is NOT a Galaxy S4+ / S4 LTE-A / GT-I9506 containing a msm8974 CPU...BUT a regular S4 / GT-I9505.

This explains everything, why it refuses to flash my PIT and firmware and all other GT-I9506 stuff.

You can't flash firmware ment for another model. Worst case scenario is that you can't get it back to normal but have to go to a Service Center.

BUT if the bootloader did its job as it's supposed to, there's a chance you can still get it back to normal.

This requires you to flash an Original full firmware for exactly your phone.

There's a forum here on XDA that has everything you need for flashing right firmware. Search for Galaxy S4 or GT-I9505.

If you want to make sure about model, do this:

Remove back cover.

Pull out battery.

Now you should see a white sticker.

First line probably say 'MOBILE PHONE'

Then on the second line it says Model:

Here you should be able to find correct model name.

Good luck.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:

Oh sh*t....two phones on very low battery...changing to my laptop.

I want to release one more 5.0.1 kernel before taking a deserved break. Not much, but added a whole bunch of TCP Congestions to kernels.

Shutting down phone...

Stay tuned.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
Hey bro

Which TCP congestion is best if not better? presently Reno and cubic is present in faux.

What about fast charge? Possible?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Regarding the TCP congestion; I have tested some of them but it's hard to tell. I think it needs more investigation. But now they are activated, so they only needs to be tested.

Regarding Fast Charge; I've implemented most of the code, but it's not active atm. I still need to work a bit more on it.

But nothing is impossible, until otherwise proven.

Stay tuned bro.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
As what [MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION] mentioned, Is your phone a GT-I9506 or GT-I9505?

Its not so smoth, it takes a hole of battery then 4.4.2.

I'm using the non OC kernel and is working fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] tvniklas:
Ive tried both kernels, now on the OC

I must say that the OC version works better
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
OC kernel will cause more battery drain as per what I have tested.

Use the non OC if battery drain is a concern.

I leave the governor and i/o as default.

There is no lag so far.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] sibellius:
i'm using DOC5 working on its OC kernel. it's very smooth and extremely fast. never had Force Closing or thermal issue... it's the best firmware i used among the others on this phone. i'm very satisfied :good: thanks to dehawk... i think that hard resets and wipes are important when we flash a rom.. i flash two times and reset and wipe before and after every flash just to start from a very clean situation..

Hey bro

Just activated Mobile Hotpot on my latest OC XXUDOC5 build - not yet released, now using it with my other 4.4.2 phone without any problems. My 4.4.2 phone has no SIM installed atm. and my WiFi access point is turned off. - 4.4.2 phone has full Internet access. So that part in 5.0.1 build seems fixed now.

Might upload new build tomorrow and you can test it out.

Stay tuned.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

I normally just claer Dalvik cache and Cache. But only because I'm flashed so must and don't want to setup phone every time.

Normally this should be more than enough to make things work. So IF you experience strange behaviour you should try a full reset. Just remember to backup first.

I actually have had to make a full vipe now and then...

A full vipe will totally clear up the data partition and in some cases it might be a good idea.

5.0.1 OC/NON-OC information.

The OC and NON-OC XXUDOC5 kernels are once again sharing the same sources.

I managed to fix my scripts to take care of everything. It's just to complicated to have different build folders.

I've now tested both the OC and NON-OC XXUDOC5 builds on my phone and it seems everything is just fine, now even Android AP Hotspot.

Now I need to do the same for my 4.4.2 code.

Stay tuned.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kotaxor:
Viper4android works fine with fauxsound, but you need to adjust the setting to your liking.

Been using it since S2.

The problem I face with fauxsound is it does not stick on reboot. Need to open the app and adjust before it is working.

Edit: [MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION], just flash DOC5, so you don't have to come out with too many version of kernel....LOL

Yeah, I am succer for viper, think it´s simply best and it is all the same what headphones you plug in it makes phone sound good. I have used it with my every android and all of them sounds good. For my surprise wife´s galaxy trend+ sounds incredible.

And today I´m gonna install 5.0.1 and test if it is any good comparing to 4.4.2. And Mr.DeHawk:

Really million thanks for the work that you do for us...
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Thanks for reporting. I still haven't received the 5.4.10 version, strange.

But this once again proves why I should stick to only one build folder.

The build folder used now is capable, as mentioned earlier, to make both OC and NON-OC XXUDOC5 / XXUDOB5 kernels.

Dropped the OC build folder and fixed my scripts to make needed changes if building OC kernel. Initial testing seems very good.

Will upload my latest XXUDOC5 OC build version and update download link now.
