Help, Error- Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card.

Hi, I'm on the latest build. Did a full wipe and flashed the rom + gapps given in the OP. But there is one weird bug when I want to install certain apps from playstore. When I tried installing Tower Of Savior / Linezeta / Whatsapp Wallpaper, there is this msg "couldn't install on usb storage or sd card". But I am able to install Facebook / Whatsapp / and some other apps from playstore without having any problem. I also read that the workout for the "couldn't install on usb storage or sd card" error is either to unmount sd card 1st, install the app from playstore, then only mount back the sd card. (which is a temporary solution for me now). Are you guys experiencing such problem? :crying: :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
This is a much discussed problem on here since the new CM kernel.

The only work-around so far is to disable app moving within settings>apps>menu

Its such a shame that Slim is rife with problems since the new CM kernel/source merge, this being one of them. I've had to stop using Slim/SSK because of these issues as the ROM has sadly become unusable for me. :(

08/20 is the last stable build for me, which I believe was M9 (old CM kernel) based.

[MENTION=3306843]kantjer[/MENTION]

have you come to any conclusions on this, and the BT/wifi/data/signal problems with regards to if its related to being on the old/new bootloader?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] angelcalibur:
Thx! I will try this afternoon.

do you need a logcat or something when we have a little freeze, RR?

if u need, witch app can i use to give you information about crash?

still cannot understand why downloading from ANDOID FILE HOST is not allowed with ANDROID basic browsers ... it is like apple downloads will require IE :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] davtse:
Nakedbrowser seems to work around that issue, although I have to leave the screen on because it automatically cuts off the download when screen is off. but yea. It's ironic that someone hosting stuff for android doesnt allow downloads from androids. LOL
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
It's working for me using Chrome beta
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
lol ... chrome beta too here ... and nothing ... maybe provider limitation?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I'm using CrappaLinks, could be it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
me too ....

anyway ... xposed not updated properly for me, giving me following note: app_process version "58" has been installed previously but version "---" was found now. If you didn't expect an old file to be restored you might want to try installing via recovery (auto or manual).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
That's weird I flashed the ROM 3 times with script included, no issues or errors at all.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
i updated xposed manually and reboot and it is fine .. just wondering why the script was not working for me
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
If you never used the xposed script and this happened after flashing the ROM I understand.

What happened is the script in the old ROM makes the backup, the script in the new ROM does the restore.

In you case, if you did not use the script before, there was no backup made, and the restore function complains about it.

I will add a note that first time users can expect an error, just ignore it . It will work at next ROM flash
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
ahhh my case :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] brunodu91:
It's my casE too but I don't understand? What is the xposed script? I must to install a xposed modules? What is his rule?

I tried not to modify the scripts' permissions and noticed they still worked. Wonder why it matters in the first place :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
It turns out the script is causing confusion and errors for non xposed users (I wasn't expecting that).

I will remove it in the next build.

EDIT: I had an other look at the script and I still don't understand why this happens. For non-xposed users just nothing should happen :confused:

If someone with more scripting knowledge than I have can have a look I would be very grateful.

My phone also didn't auto connect to the cars BT with the latest alucard's or previous. I flashed googy's kernel and it connected immediately i entered the car and started the engine... ?

So i guess it's kernel related.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] corb06:
I can confirm that its AluCard kernel related also. I just flashed the 1.3D version and now all my bluetooth stuff, keyboard, mouse, headset, VolvoCar and so on connects immidiatly and disconnects properly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gerxp:
+1

Just curious ... where will you move to eventually?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wonsky21:
Not sure, as I didn't find a good replacement... Maybe Carbon rom, or Wanam. But I'm not leaving SK yet. I'm sure they will fix bugs and we'll have a good, old, fast and bugfree SlimKat :)

GT-I9505 | SlimSaberKat 4.4.4 jflte by kantjer
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
The issues don't seem to be BL related
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
Slim labelled the the 8 build as weekly for the jflte and not stable, so hopefully the now recognise there are issues. That's the first step to getting it fixed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I'm 100% sure it's kernel related. I suspect it's due to "Optimized Bluetooth drivers. Now it doesn't consume battery when phone is in sleep mode and Bluetooth is enabled."

I guess BT is in such an idle state (otherwise it would use pwr) it just doest connects any more
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] troullis2004:
I have just read that on latest cm nightlies, BT and WiFi issues have been fixed. Battery life is also great they report. Is there any way to get the code that fixes those issues to this lovely ROM? Thanks for your great effort and your time and dedication. I hope you will continue building ROMs for this device.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
Where did you read that?

I just had a quick look at the CM source and don't see any recent commits related to this issue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
This is a list of the CM nightlies with commits

I dont see anything in there regarding these issues.

Only BT commit I see is a "move CAF strings" commit, so can't see this solving these problems
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] FlanjeUK:
I seen something mentioned in Alucard's thread (this post)

but there's no evidence provided to backup the claim...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] troullis2004:
I have read it at the latest pages of cm nightlies original android dev of this device section. This is what users have reported at least.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I normally never look at the CM threat but after your post I have had a look.

I have scanned only 2-3 pages and already seen reports about almost every issue we have on the recent Slim/SSK jflte builds :(

That proves that in this case unfortunately, there is a strong link between Slim and CM.

No real solution only rumours that it's fixed, will be fixed, needs to be fixed, isn't fixed :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Just a thought regarding the Wifi/Signal/Data issues now that Slim is on updated CM kernel/Sammy sources.

We are still using 4.4.2 modem.bin and non-hlos.bin, as these are the only ones available on SamMobile.

I'm wondering if things will correct themselves when 4.4.4 modems are finally released?

Removed functionalities for turning on/off data, wifi when phone goes from awake to sleep and the reverse.: that's mean that data connection will be always on if the screen is off?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] angelcalibur:
intelli_thermal = gestionnaire thermique in french.

i think it's to avoid overheating of the phone, but i'am not sure...

I'm not releasing it but If anybody wants to try it you can find it at the usual spot.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] angelcalibur:
thx kantjer!

i will try your last release.

can i flash alucard 1.3d if the kernel you push in your rom doesn't work fine?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:

i instal after a full wipe it's ok with alucard 1.3d.

BT, gps and wifi works fine. i have no random reboot, no freeze...

I had a call and at the same time I was using the gps with Waze and it was ok.

Phone auto connect alone with car, with and without sleep screen.

Maybee it's a solution for you : build a rom with slimkat v8 and alucard 1.3d pending a new stable version of alucard .

hi Kantjer i would donate 40euros if you could make 1 "new" release based on ssk 08.20 /sk7.4/ if you got that source/repo somewhere still around because :

- im a user not a developer,cant do it myself :(

- new builds are simply full with bugs / implemented voip not working;BT;Wifi;RR; /

- want to have my 6hours on screen time

- need my apps working /navigation force FC on new builds /

- need a STABLE rom for my phone /still on 08.20/just flashed 2.7d because later kernel all got voipbug/

- i feel now that the new cm base isnt gonna be fixed until we get L , and than the hole sh..t gonna start again ,and seems like im gonna buy a new phone sooner as these bugs getting fixed

i know its deadline but dont need to much

- would like to have the new framework layout/color setups/ so a simple make up ,and everything what YOU wont to merge

- pls if you make it, make it with alucards 2.7 d , after that all Alu kernel /new cm too/drops the voip call/with phone.apk/ if the other side answers the call ,but actually i dont care can flash any kernel later on

if you dont wont to spend your time with that no problem mate , i can understand that too

thy for your support until now ,and keep up and just say yes or no :)

cheers and have a nice weekend

Is Slimsaber for the SGS4 dead ? Hopefully not.....

or is it time to look for an other ROM ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Why on earth would you think that?

I suppose it HAS been 1 whole day since the last release, so kantjer, you are definitely slacking!

:)

The problem kantjer is facing at the moment is instability of the ROM with regards to wifi/BT/data/signal since Slim went over to the latest CM kernel/Sammy sources.

Hopefully CM will fix this soon (as I notice there have been a number of BT commits lately, so fingers crossed)

Once it's been sorted, Slim will follow closely after, and then hopefully we can all enjoy a bang up to date rock solid SSK ROM again.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kofe:
KT does not work on SSK any more. The last version of SSK compatible with KT is 08.20.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
OK, so I had a week or so off ssk because craving stability, so using ge ROM, which actually isn't that stable for me, I mean when it works it's great but haven't got more than 26 hours uptime without having to reboot for some reason or other. Audio via Bluetooth is flawless though, once BT problems are sorted in cm code ssk will be the only ROM I need, you see because however smooth and stable ge appears, ssk is like lightening in comparison and ge is by no means slow.

Keep up the good work Kantjer and thanks as always :cowboy:

Edit: I have to be honest, I think my glitchy ge may well have been my error from forcing to dual boot with old patch. I have just clean installed on primary without patch and it is about ten times smoother, that being said, ssk is still definitely faster!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wonsky21:
Exactly... Pacman rom has a lot of options similar to Slim, but it's also bloated with a lot of cm cr*p... GE is almost as smooth as Slim (in it's good days), but it is mostly vanilla android, nothing to play with... The rest of roms I tried is not worth of attention.
