Just throwing it out there: I am not a dev. I am still learning so please bear with me as I am learning off the net and diagnosing issues from others.

Working on smali&baksmali to try to fix LTE & sprint issues. Learning as I'm going.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xchampx13:
Really nice to see a new GE Rom being worked on after so long!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Yeah, i've been tired of TW. Lol.

Any feedback so far guys? Does it boot for all of you?

Edit: Update for the night. Edited framework.jar, framework2.jar, globalconfig.jar, and framework-res.apk and I saw sprint for a second and then I lost service and lost my APNs. Went through again and changed out apn xmls and several ril files but no service at all. =( Restoring my nandroid and will try again tomorrow.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danvdh:
telephony-common.jar is what you need mate, you may need to merge somethings in from CM, the guys on the HTC managed to get LTE working

good work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Thank you for the tip. :D Will look into it. Edited eri.xml to try to make it say sprint before I head to bed. Also went ahead and merged the dark ui and battery % in to bypass addons and editing framework-res multiple times.

Edit: Putting up RLS2. Will update changelog and post link. Addons have been built into rom and are now depreciated.

Edit2: RLS2 Download is up! See second post for changelog or click http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407581993 to download. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] blankingblank:
Hey [MENTION=3409070]droiddawg[/MENTION],

Congrats on taking on this new project. Just an idea for a tiny fix. It's always bugged me that the incallui displays the text 'DIALLING' with 2 'L's rather than 1. Just grasping at straws here, but could the fix be as simple as unpacking the telephony apk and editing the text? I'd love to take a crack at it if anyone could help point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

Edit: NVM... After a quick googling, I'm beginning to think it's probably due to my language settings being UK English. Apparently DIALLING is also a correct spelling. My ocd is satisfied
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
I just tried mine and it is spelt dialing. Lol. I think it's actually in the language settings apk. I'll take a look at it once I crack LTE and MMS. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] theheathen:
You should be able to get LTE by adding all the correct APNs. I have flashed his ROM before straight with nod modifications. I remember I had used an app that copied your APNS and then I imported them. The only problem I had was that I would lose LTE about once a day and would have to click on the right APN again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jds3118:
I don't think so

Sent from an Echoenian
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
You're not the first to ask. I don't think so. It requires touchwiz framework and it looks like allot of it is gone compared to the 4.2.2 build. It's on my "try to do" list but I flashed a zip last night that included libs and it just forced closed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GeneticJim:
I had a full day with this ROM. I only had to airplane mode toggle a few times right after flash. It seems to switch from WiFi to 4g to 3g well. I stream internet radio most of the day while traveling. I had less connection issues with this ROM in the same areas as with the stock ROM. I LOVE this ROM. I can't wait for more improvements/refinements. Thank you for your hard work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dyandell:
I did not notice any data problems while in cell phone hell this morning. I would estimate I switched from Sprint to roaming at least three times. If I lost anything I did not notice. Great job!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
Today Google released its own camera app in the play store. Don't know if it will be the same, better, or worse than the touch wiz camera app. Might be worth looking at.

I like it lol its definitely worth having

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GeneticJim:
Is there anyway to schedule a text message?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brikzpapi:
Main issue I'm having is not being able to send text messages over 160 characters
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
I'm not sure on the scheduling. However, I just sent a 300+ character text. It's because it converts it to MMS and I don't think MMS has all the kinks worked out yet. There's sometimes issues where I have to reboot to send an MMS. There is an xposed module to bypass the SMS to MMS conversion for over 160 characters as a temp fix. :)

Edit: turns out it is for touchwiz. :( I will look into the small kinks in messaging as I have experienced some myself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bdubble:
bugs

Hot reboot breaks data and requires a full reboot to fix. Insufficient storage issues when trying to update Google search. Nice ROM. I'll stick with it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GeneticJim:
Did you dirty flash? Maybe clean the cache. I didn't have either issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] hoodbugz:
play store

I don't have my play store can anyone help plz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Reboot and be sure its not in the app drawer. You can use a web browser and download the play store APK with a Google search.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bdubble:
bugs

Also Wi-Fi is unstable

---------- Post added at 09:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

did not dirty flash and have reflashed cleared cache. All the stuff I know to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Sounds like a bad flash. Flash again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Rocklee99:
Does the Samsung camera work on this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
No
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Rocklee99:
can I ask why? I mean, im only asking out of curiosity because I remember a google play port on I think the previous 4.2 or something port, they used the stock kernel or something and managed to get it to run properly. So I just didnt know how it works
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
Check post 182
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Yeah but I can tell you it took like 6 weeks to get it working. And at that point it wasn't working 100%.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
How stable is this ROM currently compared to CM11?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
A lot better. Data trade from mobile data to WiFi is exactly like touchwiz. This blows on any CM based ROM for the most part.

And its fluid with performance. On top battery was a bit less than touchwiz average. I got about 12 hours with 3 hours screen time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
I gave it a test

Is it possible to have a stock kitkat launcher?

Also it appears that the mobile data usage is broken?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Apozem:
Been using it for a couple days now and it seems stable. Performance is good, everything is snappy. No force closes or reboots, which is nice for a ROM this new to development.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rtwrobert10:
I'm currently on cm10.2 but it's not compatible with my version? If I run this ROM will it be compatible?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
Yes it should update after you flash the rom.

---------- Post added at 07:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 AM ----------

Read the change log in the second post for Google launcher and it will tell you how to get it working. It worked for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Okay what about the mobile data usage is that broken for people?

When i used some data it still said no data usage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brikzpapi:
Hope this answer your question
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Yes, mobile data usage is slightly broke. It maxes out at like 1.5gb for some reason for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Are you able to set a mobile data limit and warning as well? I don't think i saw it in there unless I missed it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
No on the warning and you can't set it on a specific start day. Anyone know if CM's data usage works? If so, I can merge it in.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Yes, CM11s data usage works plus data warning settings and start of cycle.

I suppose if you merge the code all those features would be included as it's included with cm11?

Oh, Thought I'd include it used CWM to install it and it appears to work fine.

Tho, it said TWRP Only.

Any idea how long it would take to merge the code and put up a new build when you get around to it?

Would love to have proper data usage working.

Also, Thanks for your work on the ROM. It appears to much faster and alot more stable than CM11. I think it's awesome with the google now launcher.

Once the data usage usage gets fixed it will be perfect for me! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
I'll work on it tomorrow. :)

Here's what I'm gonna work on:

-Data Usage monitor in settings.apk

-Battery % in systemui.apk

-Update gravitybox and xposed to latest

-Update various apks like google camera

-Tweak updater-script for Philz recovery

Also going to see if I can figure out the whole data issue where you have to sometimes select a new APN to re-gain data service.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
That sounds awesome. It appears right now mobile data and WiFi data isn't separated.

This is an old random image I found on google but it should look something like this hopefully after you do the code merge.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Apozem:
General feedback, the ROM seems to be running really well. Super stable, feels faster than TouchWiz.

The only flaw I'm seeing is that it sometimes gives you the software menu button in apps, like it doesn't detect the menu key. I've attached example screenshots.

Oddly, this does not happen in Chrome.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
I believe that may be hardcoded into some apps. Wouldn't really call that a flaw.

Notice it sometimes on my Nexus 7 2013.

Any progress on the data usage monitor? :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Still working on it. :) Compiling a test build now to see if it works.

Edit: Fixed battery percent but data monitor still seems to be broke. :(

Edit2: First test was datausage files merged from CM, second test was from a i9505G stock rom. Same result. :/ It definitely doesn't look like most of the datausage smalis are at fault. I'm thinking it might be somewhere deeper like in a jar file (possibly telephony-common. I remember seeing data usage somewhere else but don't exactly remember where. :( Will keep looking tomorrow since I have to get up in 5 hours for work! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
That's annoying. Thanks for your work on this great ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
No problem. I've been using an app called my data manager to keep track. :) It's a decent band aid until stock is fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Hopefully an easy fix when you get more time to look.

At least you know some data tracking works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Apozem:
The on-screen menu key didn't appear when I used the app on the stock NAE ROM. My best guess is it appears when no hardware menu key is detected. This behavior is not hard-coded, which is why I thought it was a ROM issue.

I had the same thing happen to me once on CM11. I tried enabling software buttons and disabling the hardware keys in build.prop just to see what it was like, no real reason. Without that hardware menu key disabled, I started seeing the software menu button in apps like reddit sync and Chrome. This may be why you see it on your Nexus 7 as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
[MENTION=3409070]droiddawg[/MENTION] you need to change (WIP) in the original post header to stable. Nice work! Just a few minor kinks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Not to sound upset or be a downer but I have to disagree. It's still a WIP with some stuff that needs to be fixed. To me stable means problem free.

Performance wise it's very fast and stable

One major problem they need to fix is the data usage monitor.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oldpreowner:
You didn't see the workaround that he posted? I wouldn't be on Sprint's crappy network if I had to worry about my data usage. That is the only thing that keeps me with them. My daughter uses about 8gb a month, I would drive myself crazy having to worry about that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
I see your point but I would consider it broken and not really A work around. It's an included android feature that is broken.

Your daughter can't use WiFi at all?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrphy42:
My data seems to be fine, but I am getting a constant "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" message.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GeneticJim:
I had to go back to touch wiz. The data was unstable after a week of using the rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Try wiping cache and dalvik or a reflash
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Still working out some of the kinks with data drops. Airplane mode toggles seem like they are less and less lately for me. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Any updates to the stock data usage manager? :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] GeneticJim:
No worries I WILL BE BACK I actually love your rom. It was fast, smooth and had slightly better battery life than any touch wiz rom I tried.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrphy42:
Tried both, same result.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrphy42:
Tried full wipe and reformat, same issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Try redownloading the ROM. Preferably from a computer if you can.

Side note: Going to have a build up this weekend. Haven't made too much progress but still trying to fix the data graph in the settings. :) Also trying to get data more stable as well. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Do you have a repo of your source somewhere for people to download?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
No source. :( Not sure how to pull it neither. Sorry for lack of updates everyone, lots of doctor appointments for the wife. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Hope your wife is OK.

Your not building from source?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jds3118:
It's a port of Google play edition the link in op to original thread to get source

IRL comes first ! Take care of the loved ones ! ? ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Somebody PMed about the Verizon port and says that the stock data usage works.

Since this ROM comes form that it should work.

I guess perhaps maybe something was changed that broke it?

Also no source for Google play edition roms. Only ports and the kernel source.

EDIT: You can see the post at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52212348

Wonder why it doesn't show?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Interesting. I've merged CM files and stock i9505g files into the settings apk with no change in my data usage monitor. In fact, the file sizes were the same, not even a 0.1kb difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
I wonder if a build.prop change might have broke it?

if the Verizon port has it working but not this one hum...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jds3118:
I'll look into it when I get home
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Oh did you rebuild any apks?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Only two apk was settings.apk but that was on my phone and not in a release. Other was framework-res (i believe) to introduce new eri.XML to show sprint instead of Verizon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
I went ahead and applied the old framework-res.apk to see if that would fix it and it doesn't.

Leads me to believe there is in incorrect build.prop entry that is causing it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
Will take a look at it today since I'm off work after a 50+ hour 6 day week.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
I should have something up today. Currently updating some APKs for those who wish to fresh install. Once I extract the APKs and compile a test build I will post up the results.

I did find some more goodies for the data graph in systemui.apk and that was an apk that I edited....so hopefully that'll work now. :laugh:

Progess edits (will start a new post when I put up RLS6 for public use):

Edit: Built. Will dirty flash and then backup and clean flash to check for stability. Once I see all is good, I will post the link.

Edit2: So data usage window reports higher than what it did but still don't see any sliders. Swapping out unedited settings.apk from the VZW build for another build. Building and reflashing to see if that helps.

Edit3: No go. Backing up again and wiping all to see if there is any change.

Edit4: Even a full wipe doesn't yield a correct data graph. :( However, the data amount is higher than I've seen: mine was stuck at 336mb and now it is at 2.5gb which is close to what the 3rd party "My Data Graph" shows. I feel I'm getting closer on this.

Edit5: Deodexed rom but don't think data graph will be corrected today

Edit6: Unfortunately that didn't help. I have to go to a friend's house for dinner at 7 so I must stop for the evening. No build up tonight. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] pclov3r:
Thanks for looking into it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] droiddawg:
No problem. I feel we are getting close though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Parkourkid93:
Don't stress on it :).

To be honest, besides the whole data usage graph issue (which isn't really an issue for me because I can still see how much data I used, I pretty much monitor myself off that), the 5.5 has been working flawless for me, never had any fc's unless it was caused by me, I think you're doing a pretty damn good job keeping this thread updated on your progress on improving the ROM & all the time you put into it, plus managing your real life, I'm pretty sure we all here really appreciate the work you're doing down here at the sprint section, even tho I'm not on this ROM at this moment (I can admit, I'm a raging flashaholic, I've been a bit unfaithful :p), but I always find myself coming back to this ROM more than others. Keep up the great work here :)
