Hi, I have been using Cyanogenmod 11 for a while now and I am experiencing a seriously annoying bug, when I make a call the screen goes off and every time I try to press the power button to power the screen the only thing that works on screen is the main OS and task area, but every time I click on the phone option it turns the screen off grr. The only way to cancel the call is to power off the phone.

Ive tried every version so far including the latest nightly 11-20140402-NIGHTLY-i9500

It seems to happen on all the versions previously which I installed.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500

Rom: Cyanogenmod 11: (11-20140402-NIGHTLY-i9500)

OS: Android 4.4.2
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Shohat:
SNAPSHOT M5 rolling out right now !

let's hope i9500 will get it too.... i prefer M builds. its more polished and you just need to update once a month :good:

Does someone experience trouble reading QR codes?

QRDroid does not work for me with stock CM11-20140403. The camera focuses, but the QR code will not be red by QRDroid.

I tried about 8 apps and only 1 works: pl.mobiem.skanerqr. But this one has annoying popup adds.

Does it work with Alberto's build? If so, does anyone know the solution so it can be taken with the stock CM11 next time?

Thank you in advance

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LeviathanAP:
How to implement this?

I'm currently using Simkat 4.1 and call quality is so so :/
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] oz_90:
To clarify, this mixer paths do not improve call quality. They are the same as the ones on the CM device tree and, if I'm not wrong, SlimKat uses the same tree.

This mixer paths are tweaked to improve playback volumes (the ones that we as the device owners hear on our end). The volumes tweaked are the earphones and earpiece volumes. Just paste the xml to /etc and set permissions to rw-r--r--, then reboot. Make sure to make a backup of your actual xml.

Look on the CM discussion thread, people are saying that the bad call quality may be related to modem, you can try that and share your results.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Nalmaus:
Here i'm using i9500UBUEMK1 módem, and after upgrade to the last update of Alberto, didn't have problems with call quality ..always works great, clear.

That modem won't necessarily work best for everyone. There are different modems for different regions. Here is a great thread for modems:

I Meant wifi direct, and thanx alot for the usb tethering fix

Please can u explain these changelogs:

Cleanup and optimize media profiles

Add device specific audio effects table

Are these going to improve call quality of earpiece or something else?

Thanx once again

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
Ok I have now been keeping an eye on CM11 for a while and just don't understand why going through all the trouble making CM11 that's beyond useless to some people?

Bare with me for 2 seconds to understand why I say this. The CM team is very talented indeed and I have been running CM on most of my other devices so its only fair to assume I would run it on my I9500. The problem I have specifically with every single build thus far in CM is you cant call. The call quality isn't a "random bug" but rather a permanent disconnect from the rest of the phone.

When phoning you get a 1/10th of a second where you hear something and then its dead silent as if the speaker has been completely disconnected from that point. Now all the other bugs being fixed is grand and awesome but if it cant call it renders the whole ROM pretty useless.

Yea yea its Alpha and this and that but why does the PA Rom not have this problem at all? What did they do that the CM team can't do? How come regardless of who phones or who I am calling I can hear them every time clearly and vice versa? And every time I try a CM Nightly build to see if it has been addressed, I get the same answer every single time. The only difference is its not a "Sound quality bug" its a "No sound at all when calling/receiving calls" bug

At the current state of things we have PA that can call flawlessly yet the GPS is broken and the battery drain excessively. And in the other hand you have CM that everything works on except calling rendering it useless as a "phone rom"

I have also tried different kernal's and modems and all of them work fine on PA ruling out those. But on CM using those modems or kernels don't work either so this is a CM issue more than anything else. If you need to ask PA how to fix the "Sound quality bug (no sound issue)" then just ask them. I am sure they will share this with you.

I'm not ranting in any ways but can we focus on getting the basics to work like calling and then on all the extra stuff? I really don't need a 5" tablet and as stated others have fixed the issue so it goes beyond logic why based on the same sources the CM team cant fix it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] oz_90:
I've been using CM as my daily driver since January 3th, and never had "no sound at all" bug.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
So what are you doing that I'm not doing?

What Modem, Kernel and CWM version are you running so I can mimic that exactly so there can be no difference?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] oz_90:
I didn't do anything special, just installed the ROM without changing the kernel and flashed the modem used by my carrier in the 4.3 ROM. We are talking about sound through the earpiece and not through Bluetooth, right? I attach a screenshot.

EDIT: recovery v6.0.3.6
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
He's right. I've never expected experienced that either. Try the newest nightly and flash the modem fix. Its great.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
Only difference is that I am using the Modem on my 4.3 same as you are and on Philz Touch 6 CWM 6.0.4.7

Going to DL your modem just as a test

---------- Post added at 05:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Nope ... :(

I give up. Will wait for the M5 build as this is crazy ...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] curVV:
No call issues here either. Had some minor sound quality issues before, but with 0410 build + nc6 modem all is fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] oz_90:
That's weird. Try with pure CWM recovery, wipe data/cache/dalvik, format the system partition and reflash it. BTW I'm using PA GApps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
Compiling new build, all working fine including step sensor permissions.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
Sound Quality (no sound) fixed?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
No changes has been made to sound.

New build is up! :)

Thanks man! Any news about the green capture using QR readers or Snap Cam fast picture?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
No, sorry. I'm busy in this period and I can't focus on all bugs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] devilsdouble:
Guys sorry for asking this here, but does this ROM support custom vibration? I have heard that there's an option in CM ROMs for custom vibration, so... I am not talking about Haptic feedback, but call vibrations.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] mathy007:
Am not sure if the option is available on this rom but you can find it in beanstalk and some other rom if am not mistaken
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] fatjivi:
Can anybody help with this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
Ok ... so I out of frustration with PA decided to give it another go. Flashed a bunch of modems and ended up with my own carrier modem.

The only thing I did differently this time is boot it up before going back into CWM and flashing Gapps. I also flashed my own Modem back from the latest 4.3 and for some reason it started working. Dunno if there were some residual files or something But I also installed about every CM11 variant to see which ones were working and which ones not and pretty much every single one had some issue with the sound.

So yea ... now it seems to be working ok. Weirdest frustration of my life ... As a S2 rom dev back in the day This has surely pressed all the wrong buttons with me :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] oz_90:
That was really weird, but I'm glad you made it. Welcome to CM again :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
10th april changes

guys after installing the 10th april build, I noticed that the audio effects file was not actually changed... although it shows as merged and committed in the cm changelog... is this an error?

Im talking about this one ---- > i9500: add device specific audio effects table (android_device_samsung_i9500)

when i go look at the file in my device nothing has changed... its the same... is this supposed to be like this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
system/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf is the one that has been modified :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] toxicdust:
Yea... I'm just glad it started working. To scared now to do a Update on the nightlies... might stop working again lol

Anyways what kernel are you running. I see the CM one is a bit heavy on juice. Been looking at some of the others but the changes on them aren't very clear.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
So then what do the file that I saw do :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
It enables some audio effects that before weren't enabled + it enables hardware voice processing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] usju:
I am running the latest Omega v20 with baseband I9500XUBMG9 and tried this as second ROM with RomSwitcher but I get no network :(

I did some searching around and it seems it is related to my flashing of Chinese ROM to get more usable internal memory.

When I had flashed Chinese ROM, I do remember that I had no network on any other ROM, I was advised to flash the above mentioned baseband manually and then it started working. That was on 4.3, and when 4.4 update for Omega came it just worked on the same baseband.

Any directions to resolve will be highly appreciated:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] bandur:
I think it is related to Perseus/ rom-switcher kernel
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] usju:
FYI, I have no network issues with other AOSP based ROMS i tried like Beanstalk and SOKP
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
Fixed call quality and recording quality

So guys this is what i did.

I downloaded the latest nightly and flashed the chinese modem. Call quality was very good! Had no problems whatsoever.

I also added extra preprocessing (echo cancellation and auto gain control) options for the mic and camcorder in the audio config files in vendor\etc and system\etc. I also added agc for the voice_communication preprocessing.

after restarting everything sounds really good now.. apparently I sound crystal clear and not even 'metallic'. so ya.... awesome :P

all credit goes to alberto and ethan :D

(p.s this could all just be a placebo but seriously I myself have noticed a change... it could just be the modem for the calls but my mic recordings and camera recordings are very clear now too.. so...)

try it out and lemme know how it goes for you guys! :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mohamed Bilal:
[MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] please tell me how u added preprocessing to mic and camcorder please guide so i can do the same on my phone and share the experience. Thanks for letting us know.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
Do not add more useless stuff to audio_effects.conf . Leave all as is.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mohamed Bilal:
[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] but the mic is still low and even when recording soung the mic voulume is too low
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
We are focusing on quality first, then on volume. If we set the volume to an higher level quality gets worse.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mohamed Bilal:
[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], Yes you are right, i never thought of that, but for the time being i can try the changes that [MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] has done, so i can be able to use sound recorder and make calls without any fear [MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] please can u guide me how u added the preprocessing to mic and the camcorder in the audio_effects.conf at system/etc and vendor/etc....

Or if u could attach both files of yours that u modified in system/etc and vendor/etc.

Thanx once again to [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], [MENTION=380150]Ethan[/MENTION].

And thanx [MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] for sharing the idea...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mohamed Bilal:
[MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION], [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] please can u help me how to add automatic gain control and echo cancellation to mic. [MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] please if u could attach your mdified audio _effects.conf , would be really helpfull, so i could paste to my i9500 at vendor/etc and system/etc. Thank you so much for sharing your idea
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
Dude I'm not even 100% sure if it makes a difference like Alberto said... It could all just be a placebo effect.. But if ur that desperate... Mount drive as rw in es file explorer and Go to vendor/etc and open audio_effects.conf with es file editor... Go to the end of file and add pre_processing

{

mic{ns{} agc{}}

camcorder {ns{} agc{}} audio_communication{ agc{} ns{} aec{} }

audio_recognition{ns{} agc{}}

}

You can copy the same file to system/etc and replace the other one there but idk if that actually does anything... Then save, mount drive as r0 and restart phone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mohamed Bilal:
[MENTION=5541104]Sitwano[/MENTION] thanks so much for guiding me, but please can u attach your audio_effects.conf so i can paste it to my i9500

Cause im scared editting the file.

yet another "state of the ROM" info request

I only now have time to bail from TW and try CM on my S4 (after good results on my Note 2). Sorry to be a douche, but I stopped following this thread several weeks ago and would like a quick summary of current expected 11.0 performance. Can someone verify my three personal dealbreakers before I make the big move?:

1) external storage is no longer an issue

2) audio: in-call is at least passable (I rarely make voice calls). Using PowerAmp to listen to voice MP3's is passable, though I'm also hoping for quality music playback

3) WiFi hotspot works

Isaw that this game's apk size is 732 mb. It is not dependent on obb. So, How can I move it? For these reasons, I must move only apk :(
