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

No no...CSC is included in original firmware. It's the cache image.

You don't need to flash it, this is done by the phone automatically after it has flashed the whole firmware.

Hope this helps.

Are you sure it was the DOK2 insecure kernel, sounds like kernel doesn't match system. DOK1 kernel won't work on DOK2 firmware and will give you exactly the result you're experience.

[MENTION=5195692]same-xx[/MENTION] [MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION] I am about to do the second attempt to flash stock firmware and then the modified one.

Question:

When flashing stock GT-I9506 5.0.1 - Repacked to Open Nordic full firmware NEE-XXUDOK2. <--------- Download link. - Updated 2015-12-13. - is kernel already included in the rom or do I need to flash it separately?

If separately, then is this one ok: GT-I9506 5.0.1 - Open Europe Stock Kernel from XXUDOK1. <--------- Download link. - Updated 2015-11-20.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Stock repacked firmware doesn't contain any by me modified files.

It's fully stock, I just changed it to NEE and removed the hidden image.

Therefore you must, flash your preferred insecure kernel that matches your firmware and then your preferred De-Odexed system.

Hope this helps.

Regards

DeHAWK.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DonAndress:
Thanks for your answer, mate.

So it means that for repacked rom:

GT-I9506 5.0.1 - Repacked to Open Nordic full firmware NEE-XXUDOK2. <--------- Download link. - Updated 2015-12-13

I should flash this kernel:

Insecure NON-OC kernel XXUDOK2 v4.1.0 for GT-I9506. <--------- Download link. - Update 2015-12-15

Is that correct?

And then I can flash this modified rom:

GT-I9506 - update file XXUDOK2 SLIM De-Odexed system v130.zip. <--------- Download link - Updated 2015-12-13

with the same kernel mentioned above, right?

Also if I install the insecure kernel to obtain root and decide to install a different kernel in the future will I lose root?

GT-I9506 - update file XXUDOK2 SLIM De-Odexed system v130.zip. <--------- Download link - Updated 2015-12-13.

2) then proceed to flash this via TWRP

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

Always first flash stock firmware, in this case XXUDOK2 - or as I recommend; XXUDOK2 Repacked.

Always enter download mode from OFF, or even better; do the battery pull trick. This way we know everything gets updated. Flash stock firmware using Odin v3.10.6 or v3.10.7.

Now flash TWRP v3.8.7.0, use Odin v3.07 for this.

Now you can flash all the XXUDOK2 stuff.

Hope this helps bro.

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

Always make sure that kernel and system are same versions.

My kernels and systems are made to match each other. Installing a different kernel from an other developer might work, but can't really tell. About loosing root; all depends on how new kernel image obtains root.

And yes, XXUDOK2, XXUDOK1, XXUDOJ2 & XXUDOF2 represent the different versions. With the first as the latest released version

Happy New Year to everyone

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

Hey bro,

Thank you so much for all your hard work and mostly for you big and generous heart.

I have upgraded my phone from NON-OC full DOD3 to NON-OC SLIM DOK2.

1. I would like to share with you what comes out from Phoneinfo to make sure everything is OK. The details are in the signature

2. Is there a way to recover pre-upgrade settings (wallpaper, app icons, layouts, sms..) in the future? Is there a particular file that holds all these info?

When using SLIM, we don't have access to Samsung backup. Google for some weird reasons has not done any backup!

3. Can I install exposed on this version? If so, how and which apps to install to make it work? FYI, I have never used it before and will appreciate any app recommendations to add.

Many thanks bro and a very Happy New year.

notification access reset

Has anyone else noticed that the "notification access" seems to reset after a reboot (everything seems to get unticked - except GlanceViewMk). I'm running DOK2 SLIM (it's working really well now - although I had trouble with DOK1 & DOK2 Full). I've noticed the notification access issues since DOJ2.

Luke
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Alienns:
Same here. After reboot it`s unticked. But that problem is in official rom also. Since first lolipop version and stay in every.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] lucas_nz:
Ah, you're right, in fact the problem seems to be wide spread (http://developer.samsung.com/forum/...messageId=280532&frm=7&tagValue=bug&curPage=1). Disabling/Freezing GlanceViewMk seems to resolve the issue (although you loose the feature - which I liked). I wonder if we can modify GlanceViewMk to fix the issue?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DonAndress:
I got another issue to add.

When triggering the "last used apps" screen, it shows up with a lag (comparing to CM) and when there are many apps on the list and you choose to close them all at once, the screen freezes. Pressing the home button helps thought but it shouldn't be this way.

Have u tried to install another launcher as system/priv app? That should ease the launcher delay. And disable the tw-launcher. Multible launchers is known to cause delay. Don't know if it helps, but try. I read that other launchers doesn't work well with lollipop tw.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] zeroafro:
Yeah i had the same issue with apex. Using apex as system app doesn't resolve the issue though.

So now i had to either swipe manually to clear the recent apps or just press home button after pressing 'clear all' button.

Using the app 'Recently' helps to limit the number of cards shown in recent app. That will tidy up a little bit.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] mandroid717:
Why closing Android apps is worse than leaving them running

In fact, constantly closing apps can have a detrimental effect on your phone’s performance, and on its battery life.

Android is very good at managing its resources. It has a certain amount of memory (RAM) to work with, and it’ll happily allow apps to use as much as they need for best performance.

If RAM starts to get a bit short, and other apps and tasks need some, then the OS will quietly close one of the apps running in the background that you haven’t used for a while, and assign that app’s RAM to the new task.

As a result, apps can stay in memory for hours, days or potentially even weeks since you last used them. And this is fine. They’re not draining the battery or using other resources so there’s no downside; the upside is they will load much quicker when you need them, and load them right back to the place where you left off too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DonAndress:

What does it do and why do I need that? :)

TapaTalked from i9506
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] same-xx:
It is feature for saving battery. It keeps apps from starting up and using power and memory. It prevents app from starting if u don't use it.

There is a couple of options: automatic, if u don't use app in 3 days. Allways or never. It's good function. I have only noticed that app starts little slower if it's optimised.

Another question.

I don't really know the proper names for all that so let me explain as well as I can :)

When I receive sth (text, TapaTalk, mail whatever) and the phone is locked, on the lockscreen I can see only 3 notifications. The rest is hidden.

Is there any easy way to edit the number of visible notifications?

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] same-xx:
I can't find any other setting to lockscreen notifications. Not in floating feature, settings or in providers settings. Think the 3 is max. I do not have had any problems with charging led or at led at all. Many times xposed causes led problems. If not that, u can try re-flash kernel, see if that helps.

If you just flash, it should not, as long you have settings that can handle reboot. Calendar, msg, phonebook, ip settings are not affected. Some settings might.

It shouldn't take more than 5min. before phone starts to boot after flashing. You should remove the battery from phone and keep it off for 5 min and then go straight to download mode before flashing.

First install standard repacked rom, then twrp, then kernel, then full- or slimdeodexed.

If after 10 sec pressing home button nothing happens, something is wrong.

For me it is 1-2 sec and I'm in recent list.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] mandroid717:
so here is what i did

installed repacked rom wanted to stay on this rom for a few days to see how it ran. rooted with a CF-Auto-Root-ks01lte-ks01ltexx-gti9506.tar.md5 and installed twrp to installed much needed important apps (titanium). The repacked rom ran beautifully. was thinking i could not get much better than this. read some good things about slimdeodexed so.....

pulled battery and let sit 5 minutes then installed non-oc insecure kernel then slim rom and get stuck at kernel message.
