If both SD cards work better in the hack that you mentioned, y didn Official CM use it? The hack with CM will simply be best or each time have to flash Perseus kernel.

Use perseus kernel for storage issues.

Since the storage problem is causing such unstable experience using the Rom, I think is going to be very difficult to detect (and report) another kind of bugs. Is there any word from developers about this? :thumbup:

Not for me... storage still requires me to flash Perseus before being "fixed".

This happens on the last build too.

I am experiencing massive and alarming battery drainage on standby. I have never missed updating on the nightly builds, but so far the problem has been persistent.

Unlike Stock Touchwiz which I get maximum of 4% drainage over the night. On Cm I get a whopping 17% drainage almost every night. The screen on battery is okay but just the deep sleep drainage.

Basically when I check the battery stats, the main culprit are always identical to this.

Android system-40%

Android OS-23%

Screen-17%

Phone-15

Com.android.systemui-5%

Please I want to help make next build better. My logcat is attached here thanks

If these changes hit the 0305 nightly, my device couldn't tell. I still can't write to the SD card after a full wipe and clean install :(

Also, this release keeps telling me, "SIM card added - Restart your device to access the mobile network" and I can't save an APN. That's a first for me on CM11, either unofficial or official.

Camera FCs, nothing new here.

Logcat coming soon.

Edit-----------

Sorry, I couldn't produce a logcat. Something is messed up with my Android SDK / USB drivers and I didn't have time to troubleshoot it before needing my phone back in order. I'll try to get it working and report later.

Moderation, thread cleaned yet again

This is Original Development, battery drain after 24 hours, reporting bugs on different kernels, ETA's, general complaining, no logcat given ect ect these are all against are rules in this forum and have been clearly stated by the OP.

If you have a bug, it must be on stock Rom, stock Kernel and you need to produce a logcat, if you can't do that, don't post.

We have better things to do than babysit this thread.

Further rule breaking will lead to warnings and possible infractions.

I'm on the last nightly (20140305) upgraded from the 20140303 build. Yeah, the storage issue remains, but I use the repacked kernel linked in my signature and everything works. I don't use Perseus because it breaks WiFi tethering.

For the SIM message, just press the back button and it won't bother until the next reboot.

EDIT: I tried the video recording and there's no inverted colors, I suppose that's due the repacked kernel :)

NOTE: don't complain about the moderators, is on their duties to keep an eye on the threads to avoid unuseful feedback and off topic conversations. If there's no moderation in a forum, it would be a chaos. Just stay in topic, and if someone has already reported a bug you're having, try to bring more information to help.

OK so I am going to take it as a duty to report bugs if any is found on this device because as far as I can tell cyanogen build is the best ROM that has ever graced my S4 device .

So today I updated the latest nightly build "cm-11-20140305-NIGHTLY-i9500" as always. Here are my findings:

When the device is woken from sleep, a pop up comes up saying "new sim card has been added, reboot device" this happens every time I unlock the device.

Also It takes the device about 10sec after the power button is pressed to indicate with a click the device has been put to sleep.

Still on the matter of drainage, "phone" application indicates a dramatic battery usage of 46% on wake. Though practical battery's performance looks normal to me. To add, I haven't made any call with The phone.

OK so after looking at today's change log, I decided to update as it had option for power save profiling. Well I noticed that the CPU when switched from ondamand to any of either User space, performance or power save. Is always afloat at 600MHZ 1600MHZ and 600MHZ respectively irrespective of if there is no operation going on. Its like those are their minimum frequency. It is only when I switch to on demand that the CPU goes down to 250MHZ when the screen is not touched.

It is not all the time you complain about something, at least the guys behind the development of this product even when they are not paid for it deserves a word of encouragement.

To be honest, I don't think I'll be switching ROMs anymore on this device as it has proven itself to be the best and most beautiful dress for my s4. So I am going to point out few killer features that I think makes cyanogen 11.0 worth the time.

-The audio quality on speakers is amazing it's almost like I am listening music on that HTC boom stuff.

-Also the headset audio is also of premium quality. All that excessive noise and coming from hardware when using stock ROM has been eroded and its just like you are listening to good old Sony Ericson Walkman player. Giving you clear bass+ sound when you choose not to enable compression and visual sound. I call it a '' The cyaners miracle''

-Did I mentioned the battery performance? Oh yes! Battery performance on screen-on makes me smile every time I remember what I went through with Stockware. On moderate usage, at the end of the day I still have not less than 30% of more juice. Just epic.

-General performance, design, bloat free simple intuitive interface that's easy to maneuver makes outstanding from it peer's.

To crown it all if the sound quality on call is fixed, I see no reason why this shouldn't be a stable efficient ROM.

Thank you very much cyanogen team for the effort. You are simply the best for i9500

Thanks for the information [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION]. I tried doing it through the Terminal Emulator but I couldn't, it said that it was a directory. But I made it with Root Explorer, going to /data and changing the owner to system, then reboot and now it's working.

Is the bluetooth tethering working for anyone? I saw [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION] made a commit related to this, but doesn't work. I can pair my device with my nexus 7 but can't tether internet to it, the tablet detects it as a computer and doesn't show the option to use it for internet access.

I'm in the 20140311 Nightly build with ART and the stock kernel.

I attach the logcat, it starts when I checked the "Bluetooth tethering" option.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] the Doctor:
I guess not:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] the Doctor:
I'm presently running the 0311 build (dalvik, no mods or kernels) and had a strange battery issue today. Last night before bed, I charged the phone to 100% and when I got up 7 hrs later, it had a decent 94%. About an hour after getting up, I installed the Lenovo camera app and took one picture, put the phone in my pocket and didn't see it much until lunch. By then it was really hot and down to 25% on the battery. Since the only thing I had done was take a picture, it reminded me of this, though I doubt it's related, even if similar. I've not had this problem with the app on other builds, so I thought it might be ROM related. In any case, I stopped the app and rebooted the phone because I had to have the phone at that moment. Battery consumption has returned to normal. Is this something worth me pursuing as a bug for the devs? I could try to duplicate the problem and run a logcat for you if you'd like.

---------------------------

Edit

Can't reproduce it now, go figure. If I can at some point, I will post a logcat.

I experienced the same thing soon after installing the 0303 version. Phone got super hot and went through severe battery loss. I don't recall using the camera though. I turned the phone off, waited a few minutes then rebooted. Haven't had it since, and I am still on the 0303 version... Have absolutely no idea what caused it.

The wlan_wake wakelock is constantly waking up the phone. After flashing 3/12 nightly the problem went away with location services off. When i switched on the location services this wakelock is triggered and drains the battery by running constantly. Even if i switch off the wifi it still runs in the background

My phone does this sometimes. Usually I just power off, pull the battery and pop the same one back in. I've only noticed it on my aftermarket batteries though. Can't say for sure whether it happens with stock or not. The problem is the battery doesn't drain, there's a communication error between the battery and the phone somewhere.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] the Doctor:
Got it, just after flashing back from a day on TW. Noticed that it was blazing hot and pulled down 10% of its battery in just a couple minutes. The culprit was the Lenovo camera app. Like I said in the post above, I've never experienced this problem with that app in CM11 before, so maybe this will tell us something about the 0311 build.

Camcoder problem?

Hi [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], I'm experiencing problems with camcoder: when recording a video and stoping the recording, the camera stops working and won't work again. The file obtained is a gray tile in the gallery, any idea about this?

I attach the logcats. In the first one, I opened the camera app, changed to video, started recording, stoped and got the crash. In the second one I tried to re-open the app and got the message that it stoped working.

NOTE: I'm on 20140314 nightly with stock kernel, running ART. The camera can take photos until I try to record a video and have the problem. Same thing happening with SnapCamera.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] rudeboiza:
The same thing happened to me! Updated today and all appeared to be fine. Camera appeared to work just fine, then I read your post and tried recording a video- when I stopped recording I got the error message and the camera app will not open again. Also running 0314 but with cm kernel.

Edit: deleting the grey video file from the gallery makes the camera work again. Issue seems to only be with recording.

I have restored to 20140313 nightly backup and everything about camera works OK again. I have not tested today 20140315 nightly already, though.

Regarding camera app, have anyone noted that camera app only fails to save a properly (in quality) jpg file when 100% jpg quality is selected? All others quality options (from 55% to 95%) seems to work OK.

The GPS daemon is stupid and tries to do too much to /data when it shouldn't be allowed to. It should probably be directed to write lock files to /cache instead...

Really wonderful work from the cm11 I9500 team, thank you for all the hard work there guys, you rock!

Every thing is really smooth in latest nightly cm-11-20140322-NIGHTLY-i9500.zip.

Only bugs that I found are these:

Soft buttons keep on working even when the display is turned off, see the attached logcat.

When connected to a bluetooth headset, it automatically dials the last contact in the call logs, see the attached logcat.

The system does not route the sound to the bluetooth when calling (no audio and no mic when doing a call from the bluetooth headset), see the attached logcat.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but the Android 4.4 built-in step sensor/counter are not implemented, when doing a call using packageManager.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_SENSOR_STEP_COUNTER) it returns false.

Check the attached sample project.

This is all what I found in the latest build, but I think anyone can use it now as a daily driver if he/she is not too dependent on the bluetooth headset functionality.

I'm always doing a clean install, using Dalvik, and no custom mods or overclocking whatsoever.

When talking on the phone with a headset plugged into the 3mm jack, the sound cuts off after the screen is turns off (manually or after timing out) and the phone locks, but it doesn't hang up the call.
