Hello agian, it was the same. I have wipe dalvik and cache and factory reset.then, install your ROM, but i still could not open my Camera.

updating camera fireware, please wait.... msg.....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
Very odd try this

Boot to custom recovery

1 wipe system

2 wipe data

3 wipe cache

4 wipe dalvik

5 flash ROM

Reboot , do not restore any system data from tb or nandroid back up

Don't sign into Google skip setup and load up the camera if it loads then you know if its an app or a restore of an apps data that caused you the issue

Just installed ver 8.1 and it is working well so far. I'm on old bootloader and stock kernel still was rr'ing for me, so I changed to faux's.

Does anyone know how's the battery life for faux kernel?

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION] can you recommend a replacement for WatchON that you have tried already with the 4.4.4 build on GPE or with our very own Kangakat? Samsung WatchON (by Peel) for Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition - FINAL EDIT ----> I've tried this one however it seems it doesn't work even if i tried using other kernels using your kernel aroma installer. I hope you can help me or the others using their i9505 as a universal remote controller

I was reading some articles yesterday and caught my attention, which said that the S4 was removed from play store, getting only one handset from HTC and moto G. it would be an indication that there will be no more updates for the S4 in terms respect to the GPE?

Doubt it, its just no longer available for purchase, but I'm sure the support will continue. Just like say the nexus 4, it hasn't been available to buy for a while now yet its still received the latest updates.

Im planing to flash this ROM.. will it work to my i9505 TW base XXUGNG8? and how to check MD5?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
Yes it will .. There are free programs that check md5 values .. not by my pm otherwise I would five ya a link
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] radz_:
What program? I dont get it sorry.. do i need to unzip your ROM to check MD5?.. can you please give me the steps...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
No need to be sorry

Do this

Get program here

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...p6dx8NudkFKODeGIg&sig2=Ix73zv19EvFUvsDQsg7Z2A

don't unzip it .. just point program to zip and it will give u a md5 value to compare to make sure your zip is not corrupt due to it not downloading fully
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] radz_:
is there a way to check using my phone? I dont have access to the computer right now, my laptop is dead!lol

Wifi Icon Disappeared

Thank you iB4STiD for this great ROM.

For some reason the Wifi icon on the status bar has vanished but wifi is working.

Also I installed the ROM with the Faux kernel to try it out. How can I enable the LED nofification with GravityBox? I am familier with this app but can't find the setting for this.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
Anytime man .. Sometimes outside mods not made by me can conflict

I would do this .. Wipe dalvik and cache in recovery if that doesn't work backup your apps with tb but only /data and there apps aka market apps only

Do not backup call logs or SMS with tb or restore them via a nandroid backup

Clean install ROM then .. Use tb yo restore market apps and there data

Also give ktoonsez or googy max kernel as try as well

Again mam thanks !!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bluegrass55:
Thanks for quick reply.

Will try your suggestions.

I updated the BL & Modem to GSM_Modem_XXUGNG8_and_LTE_Modem_XXUGNG8 but still the missing Wifi icon isue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KenHua:
If all else failed you may want to try flashing the original Samsung NG8 package via Odin and Factory Reset your phone. Start it up to see you get your icon back. You will need to root your phone again to install this awesome ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] blankingblank:
Greetings Sir,

Can I ask, why do you recommend not backing up SMS/call log data and restoring with TB? Restoring data with an xml is generally not a good practice? Also, is there an approved method for retaining this type of data? Sms and call log data are typically the ONLY things I restore after a full wipe.

Thanks for reading
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
+1 i never include baseband or recoveries .. :good:

i dont recommend users restoring any system data .. from a nandroid backup or tb .. u can backup /data app and there data with tb thats fine!

sometimes restoring sms or callogs causes issues with dialer and or other parts of the system .. there are apps in the market that have been used.. but forgot which ones they were :good:

I'm getting this battery life and screen time with my TW ROM... With Kangakat can I get better results?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
look, it's not so bad, but in deep sleep, I managed to get almost 11 hours with 73% battery still (this in the days when I barely had time to use the device), but moderate use, with the same percentage both with goldeneye as with kangakat. Now answer me one thing, two actually, what font you are using and how to set as default?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] thiagodecp:
Thanks, is that I am still thinking is very little battery time, I used almost nothing, less than an hour of screen and consumes half of battery... I'll think if I'll install, I like a lot this nexus feel, but loss the sensors and some samsung apps leaves me in doubt =/

The font is roboto condensed regular, you'll find it in your system/fonts folder : D I applied with iFont app, in custom tab inside the app
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
Indeed, many features and apps sammy no longer work, but what I miss most is the quick view, moreover, does not feel the slightest lack up because not use. else be better realized using kangakat is sound. the tw roms lately, it has seemed to me a bit distorted, something that does not happen in kangakat, giving the impression of a much more clean and clear sound
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
extinguished the last post? I think the following, if it not has to say, do not say anything, especially what was said to the dev. he has no obligation to do everything they ask, as nobody is forced to use your ROM. Disliked, install another and be happy.

I am currently using totally stock rooted xxufnc4 firmware with cwm recovery, but before i flash is this likely to cause random reboots with stock kernel as i believe i also have the newer bootloader too?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
I had this same problem with goldeneye only in kangakat never had problems with random reboots. did the experience to install the latest official ROM for my country and after that, I had no problems with any ROM, both goldeneye as with any other (kangakat, resurrection remix, slimkat). perhaps the fact that updated bootload has solved the problems of random reboots
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] petrus764:
Yes, but not because of the bootloader. I know it's stated in this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54582731&postcount=245, but that is incorrect. There is nothing that supports this theory.

The reason as to why most i9505 users get random reboots appears to be totally random, a few devices handle it but most don't. Where as the north american editions are able to run the stock kernel without issues (since the i9505g supports NA frequencies, it's most likely based on those devices which is why the i9505 is having issues).

I had an i9505 with the old bootloader and it rebooted with the stock gpe kernel, updated to the new one but it still did. Had to RMA my phone for other reasons, but they switched out the motherboard and now I'm able to run the stock gpe kernel without issues and my device is running the latest NG8 bootloader.

This is also the explanation you'll find in other gpe threads, dan's for example. There's no knowing if your hardware will run the stock gpe kernel without testing it, as it appears to be totally random if your hardware can run it or not.

If you do get random reboots, just flash another kernel, there's lots of alternatives, including googy, kt and alucard.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] upinsmoke7610:
Thanks even before I rooted I had random reboot but not very frequent
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] petrus764:
If you have random reboots on a stock samsung firmware without root it could be a hw defect. Check if your battery is swelling.

If I installed this rom and selected a DPI setting that is lower than stock 480, will it remain after I do a full wipe and install another rom? And what does a lower DPI do anyway, does it affect the 1080p resolution or does it just make icons smaller?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] juapao:
Hi mate! for your inquiry, if you full wipe your current rom the DPI will also be included on it to be wiped. it will go back to stock dpi settings for a new flash of any rom you wish. what a lower dpi do is to give you more space on your user interface and it will give you a feel of what a larger screen of a mobile device have.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
I usually install in 445 dpi, however, after the initial setup, I decrease further to 400dpi. Besides the icons, font, and everything else gets smaller, leaving the softest screens and fitting more things in them. independent of the density used when installing a new ROM back to the default density of 480 dpi (absurdly huge and heavy for the eyes)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] worktorest:
Does DPI affect the default 1080p resolution? Like does it become 720p instead?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] juapao:
in what app are you pertaining to or are you pertaining to the whole UI? for youtube, it doesnt matter since it you could have an option there to choose for what quality that you would like to have it displayed on your screen. you can give a try with the "app setting" module for xposed framework and try to explore with dpi.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] worktorest:
I meant the whole UI.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] juapao:
I think this topic is getting off topic already. however, AFAIK that it doesnt literally change or make any obvious difference from 1080p to 720p quality and vise versa with regards your concern on the whole UI. What I usually do and i would suggest you with Kangakat ROM is i leave all on default on the aroma and if want to change the whole UI's dpi is to change it by using the "app settings" xposed framework (the app to change the whole UI's dpi is the System UI under app settings module). for more info of the xposed module.

Hi I installed this great ROM in my sgh-i337m and is working great very smooth and stable so my question is

If has H+ signal icon because only display an H icon

But in device status it says that Im connected to a Hspa+ network
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] biazoto:
Use gravitibox to solve it... In app, choose the option "enable H+ icon" and restart your phone.. using this rom in my 9505, I do not had any problems with it... When I conected in H+ network, it shows normally. .. maybe a carrier issue... but gravitybox probably solve this

So I'm still running ver.8 because I did two fresh installs of 8.1 and it reduced my battery live to less than 4 hours each time. I think its just me since everyone else hasn't reported anything like this. I love this rom, been running for a very long time and I'm eager to upgrade to 8.1, its just a pain to go back and fourth, especially with GFE installed and working.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:

I aways preferred the sound quality in kangakat than tw. .. for me, the sound is more clean, even using headphones... witch music player you are using? I recommend rocket player or jet audio plus.. both has a spectacular sound quality, even listening to music by the speakers of the device. Poweramp also has a good sound quality.

You can also install a sound mod, like a viper4android or dsp manager (cm equalizer)
