[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] FORC3:
Hey [MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION] . What about CM11 develeopment? Is the development stopped (from your side and from cyanogen guys)? Do you have any news?

greets c3po
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
I think CM11 is EOL from CM side. I don't use it myself so don't know if there's something to develop anymore. Don't really have time for android development anyways...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] FORC3:
Well thats sad. Cause the camera bugs from cm12 creeps me out. But thanks for the info, and the development [emoji6] Do you know when the cm12.1 builds are comming?

I noticed since last Google Play Service Update (March 26 2015) an extreme high battery drain. In fact, no deep sleep, phone awake 100%.

Version installed was 7.0.99 (1809214-036) (7099036)

I checked with site apk mirror http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-7-0-99-1809214-448-android-apk-download/ if there is a newer version.

So I noticed that the installed play service are for for Android 2.3+ (Gingerbread, API 9). But why? The CM11 is based 4.4...

Can I use 7.0.99 (1809214-836) (7099836) for Android 4.4+ (KitKat, API 19)?

In between solution for more or less normal battery drain can be found here:

[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
I'm pretty sure the difference between 1809214-036 and 1809214-836 is that -836 is for 5.0+ (ie lollipop). So no I really wouldn't try that if I were you. Yes your current one is 2.3+ but guess what? That includes 4.4. They separate them now by lollipop versus pre-lollipop, so you have the right play services.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] Grinface:
The notes saying, -836 is for Kitkat 4.4+. apks with 4?? and 7?? are for Lollipop.

In fact I'm looking for an easy an permanent solution for the high battery drain just with updating Play Service.

TW stock OB4 has 7.0.99 -438

Will add link to collection of Gapps....

TKruzze made solid Gapps - a lot better than go.im/gapps - but he has decided to leave the scene. Maybe find other good Gapps here which has continued his initiative to implement intelligent install script that clean up before installing

VoLTE

Greetings,

does this CM version support VoLTE?

In Germany, o2 and Vodafone have enabled VoLTE for some devices with special (provider) firmware/settings.

And what about support in CM12 / CM12.1?

You can get the latest build from the google drive link.

That is for the Wifi, need to be flashed as PHONE
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Thanks for modem bins. Unfortunately, i cannot flash them, Odin always fails. In bootloader, i have a grey text: Write protection: enabled. Now, do i need to flash a Samsung rom or something? Hmm, gonna do some digging on the forums.

Edit: Heimdall to the rescue. Gt them flashed, now baseband shows ML2. No compass for me though. I flashed bins from the link [MENTION=4657201]vanyel[/MENTION] posted. Also tried the set [MENTION=4204064]sam.crowther[/MENTION] messaged and same thing. I'm starting to wonder if i'm testing the compass wrong. Still, with 3D Compass and CM10.2 it works properly...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] sam.crowther:
On mk3 I have working compass ONLY in google maps. 3D compass and sygic navigation only point northm so looks like maps access the compass differently,

3D compass does work on my nexus7 wit kiitkat...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Ah i see that now, with Maps you have wait for a while before the direction arrow appears. Now it seems compass is indeed working, it's just some programs not knowing how to use it in KitKat. Good.

Also another build uploading, built it few days ago. It has some CAF changes merged from jf kernel, seems some deadlock fixes etc. Kernel seems to work fine with the rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] moviecut:
Sounds great, thank you spegelius! Do you have any plans on building another rom? Is it possible to build slimrom / aosb / omnirom from source with what we have now? Or do we need a clean aosp-base instead of a cm11 base? Aosb is based of cm11 so that should be possible...

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9295 mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Currently i've been trying to get SlimKat to build, but the sources are more buggy than i thought (or i've f*cked something with jactive device tree...:silly:). Basically it's hunting down missing QCOM defines to get the build to advance.

Also i noticed that Slim's jf kernel is a lot different compared to CM's jf kernel. It's also newer, so it would be interesting to see how it works. But it'll take time to get all jactive stuff implemented on it.

I'm also thinking about starting the work for 4.4 AOSP. I hope it doesn't take as long as the previous ;). It shouldn't now i have a fairly good picture about what to do.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] Devo7v:
I don't mean to derail this thread and I've asked this question in the past but a lot of development has occurred so I figure I'll ask again. Is it now possible to flash an i9500 AOSP or CM ROM and then flash the i9295 kernel on top of it to make it work? The only reason I ask is I see you guys building a lot of ROMs and I'm wondering if at this point it might be easier to use what's already been built for the i9500 and just flash a compatible kernel on top, or maybe even a compatibility patch with the kernel and other fixes included.

I know when I initially asked you said you wanted to learn more about android and how it worked by compiling AOSP, but it seems like you've made a lot of progress in that respect. I don't have a lot of knowledge about the inner working of android, so it may not be possible but hopefully it is.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
[MENTION=5150212]mythi[/MENTION] has done few ports which are working pretty well (AOSB and SlimKat at least), they can be found from Development section. Swapping kernel and some props seems to work mostly, but there are few settings related to camera that apparently can't be transferred like that (they seem to be compiled in while building java code). It seems that he had some problems with latest kernel and props, haven't really followed the progress on those. I thought about trying dirty porting at some point, but since other people (at least one ;) is at it, i'm sticking to building them.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] Devo7v:
Fair enough, I just figured it'd be easier to maintain one thread with the i9295 kernels in it rather than maintaining all the ROM threads. I really appreciate all the work you've been doing to keep this phone alive. Hopefully one day I'll be able to unlock my i537 bootloader and join in on the fun.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] mythi:
Ive been busy these days .... but now m free so i will make soke mix and match between libs files props and get the slimkat weekly running ... then i will post a masterpatch so that anyone can do a port in few minutes
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] vanyel:
Hi spegelius....

Flashed your latest build. There might be a bug in the kernel... Using your previous build (20140323), external SD card works just fine. With the latest one, it unmounts suddenly, and refuses to mount again until after a couple of power off....
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Hmm, i have a 32G card myself and it seems to be working properly. It shouldn't be the kernel because nothing related to block devices or filesystems is changed. I'll make a repo sync and anothe build, lets see if it changes the situation.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] qwodge:
With the Build "cm-11-20140331-UNOFFICIAL-jactiveltexx" my GPS does not work anymore, before I had the 20140320 Build.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] harpik:
sound problem..

Few persons reported to me that they cannot hear me, I sound like from underwater one said. After first few second of connection that problem disapears and everythink is ok, but it is a kind of problem that every call beggins with same pharase. I hear them without problem.

I've also noticed that some times it freezes but leaving it without doing anything helps.. it freezes approx 5-45 sec.

I wonder if it might be a problem with I/O scheduler or governor - i have it as standard ROW and INTERACTIVE.

Beside of that it is very nice rom :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] 6783:
Same issue with sound for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] allram:
And with the latest build (31032014) it seems that the phone disconnects gsm band while it's on wifi, means that people can't call me while i'm connected to wifi..
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
I have the sound problem but not the GPS problem. Dirt flashed the yesterday's build. I wonder... during weekend, after some SlimKat dualboot tryouts i lost wifi, it wouldn't turn on. After flashing yesterday's build, it's working again. Hard to tell what was causing it...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] alirey:
GPS is working fine for me with the latest build.

Tested some governors but still need some seconds for mic to come out of water ;)

No problems with Bluetooth headsets.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] okraatz:
Same sound problem here. Seems to be connected to signal processing of the two microphones. Once you disable noise cancellation it gets a little better and if you cover the second mic close to the headset jack it's almost perfect. No idea though what could be done about this....

Today's build uploaded to google drive, only change is repo sync done today. Haven't tested it myself, coz i'm running Carbon, so backup before flashing recommended...

EDIT: doens't seem to boot! Don't flash until i figure out why not...

Ah, so it does... had to format cache and dalvik-cache for some reason. Actually first time such has happened to me. Oh well, now it's running.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] moviecut:
What about the sound problems when making calls? Are the better with the latest build? I had to revert back to stock because of this. other than that carbon and cm11 are so much better than stock. but the call-sound was really bad (not for me but for the person on the other side).
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] dagbdagb:
Is it fair to say that all current ROMs for the i9295 use your kernel for now?

And they all suffer from the initial telephone audio problem?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
No on #2.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Yeah, i think the current CM11 kernel is the only one available. I'm trying some things with ktoonsez kernel, but nothing works yet.

I have tried only Carbon in addition to CM11 and haven't got any complaints (one received call with it ;). Also currently running the latest CM11 build and my dad didn't mention any problems few minutes ago. Didn't think to ask if there was problems, though...

The sound configuration should be similar to the non-Active S4, same settings. I could try to revert them to what they were in CM10.2...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I have been running your AOSP 4.3.1 build for at least a couple months daily driver with no issues. I am on the v0.8 build.

Which CM is the better one

Hi,

Have been following this thread for quite a while now and I have a quick question: I'm currently using CM10.2 for some months now, but I have issues with sd card with some applications so had to format it to fat32 instead of exfat (which is quite slow) and from what I read there are GPS problems for some people.

So my question is: Is CM11 more stable then CM10.2 when it comes to sdcard (from what I read it's better) and GPS. If so, are there some things missing or broken in CM11 that are working in CM 10.2?

Cause I'm thinking about upgrading to CM11 but only if not important things are broken. Thanks for any help on this. Cause I'm not sure that Post #1 in this thread is still up to date.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] snadge:
I'm running a build from 2 days ago myself, and have been running builds from this code for some time now. I am not seeing any call audio, gps, or direction sensor problems. Everything appears to work fine for me, including sdcard, camera (both video and stills).

I have mentioned this before, but you need to be running the latest firmware for your i9295, which will depend on what region / carrier you got it from. I know of no other way to update firmware, than using kies in windows, to flash the entire stock image. You then have to reflash recovery to flash cyanogenmod etc.

Hope this helps, I will try to update the OP tomorrow (East Australia time), with an update on the status and links to newer builds. I'm not really in a position to be able to reliably host large files, but if anyone has any suggestions or offers where I can upload something and link to it, I'll be happy to oblige.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] mythi:
Guys check out the new slim bean build (ya it took me ages but it's up) it's all based on speligus's work so anything that doesn't work on cm11 doesn't work on it :p

[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] olarf:
I give this a try last night and flashed the 060414 Version. So far everything work perfect. I must only test now IR and voice quality. Many thanks to the dev/devs. This thread should definitly not die, its about an amazing Rom. It provide slower benchmark results in antutu but it providers a much faster phone which is much smoother then the 4.2 Sammy stock stuff.

Happy Easterdays to all of you!

Update: IR work also fine and so far nobody complain about phone sound. Today i will finaly test all camera functions detailed. Wifi seems to be maybe a but better then in stock Rom. Also no FC vor freezes. Feels like a serious daily driver.

Update2: I test Front and back Camera and pic, Video and Panorama modus and I find no issues. Everything worked as it should be. So all over I found no bugs/problems over the last 2 days. I hope that the developing continue while in the other side it feels like a stable Version already. Thanks for this great Rom.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] modigangster:
hej, i gave it a try 2 days ago.

great ROM!

no probs with gps & compass.

the camera had a FC when i started it the first time, but afterwards it was great!

the only thing is, when i'm calling s.o. they ask me why my voice sounds (sometimes) so 'metallic'. i think the mic works a bit different than in the original touchwizsamsung****rom ;)

others than that... really great! it is my daily driver for now =)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] olarf:
I See that spegelius post a build of the slim Rom in 20.04 while there is no update here so far!? Im curious if snedge is the only one who is responsible here for New builds vor if maybe spegelius can also post here an updated build !? It sounds in the slim thread that the sound issues are fixed in this Version.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Indeed it is time for new build. All my limited time with Android has gone to debugging the KT kernel lately. I'll be compiling one today. As the kernel is working very well in SlimKat compiled with Linaro, i might try to to so with CM11 also.

Regarding the sound problems; i could try to revert the sound settings conf file to earlier version and post another build for you to try it. I don't have much knowledge beyond the obvious about that file (obvious meaning volumes :). The earlier version is the one that is on LeJay's repo
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Latest build uploaded to google drive. I didn't have time to make a build with different audio settings, had some problem with CM sources (Gallery2 was defined two times and had to get rid of the extra repo. Dunno if my local repo is messes up or is it on CM's side...anyhoo working now).
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] allram:
Which sound files did you modify? i can pull them from Leejay and make me a build and test, just finished setting up my own build environment and plan to try to make atleast a weekly build of this rom :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Great, it's this one: https://github.com/LeJay/android_de...mon/blob/cm-10.2/audio/snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3. The new version is from the jf-common in CM repo, i.e. the version jf devices use.

It is with Leejay's old Audio config and latest fixes from both you Spegelius and CyanogenMOD :)

Will try to keep this up to date with one or more builds each week.

ps: Audio works great with this one ;) (different sounds for i.e gmail, sms, email works)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Ah good to hear :good:. I had a look at the changes between the LeJay's version and the one in jf-common and it seems some of the values changed are volumes. Also there are few different Mic settings. If the recording volume is too low, we could try to change the volumes bit higher.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] allram:
Seems like they also changed some other things.

i.e on line 2602 they changed "'MICBIAS1 CAPLESS Switch':1:0" to "'DEC4 Volume':1:67%"

and line 2591 "'MICBIAS1 CAPLESS Switch':1:1" to nothing.

I might try to make a new build tomorrow, editing back to what it was before, but change the volumes to the jf-common version :)

Good evening gentlemen, i bought the "Kinivo BTC450 Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit".

Now I would like to give a feedback for the bluetooth connection.

Unlike with the original touchwizrom, it seems that sometimes there is a connection problem:

the connections establishes, but afterwards the sound is stuttering and i have to restart the phone.

(version 11-20140406)

edit: is there anything different on the new versions regarding this? =)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] allram:
I Know that CM11 have some bluetooth problems

They are trying to fix it before the release of M6.

I myself have a Sony smartwatch 2, Plantronics Legend both of them connected 24/7 and when i'm in my car i connect to the JVC stereo as media, so sometimes 3 bluetooth connections at the same time, i have no problem with sound stuttering or disconnect :/

Dunno if it has something to do with the sound files Spegelius and I modified back ?

Have u tried with my build from 25.April and onward? :)

Is ART working for others? For me it causes phone and systemui force closes and I have to remove the setting with adb.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] modigangster:
Thanks a lot. I should have known better and should have visited the cm-blog first. Bookmark is set.

My bluetooth-usage differs a bit from yours. I have a lot of disconnections and reconnections per day (which is wanted) but my bluetooth is set to always on.

Workaround:

* Set Tasker profile with bluetooth on/off --> "requires toggling BT on/off to fix"

I will definately test your last built in the next few days.!!

Do you know what your built-rate will be/ when the next built will come? updating with all the apps and settings on the phone is always a bit timeconsuming :cyclops:

I build for myself around every 2-3 days, will atleast build once a week, i post all my builds on my Gdrive, so just check in there once in a while for the latest build :) will post here for each weekly build.

Flashing the latest builds is quite quick. I just make a backup if i want to, flash zip, format cache/dalvik, reboot, reboot again after about 5 min. total time: about 10minutes :)
