Is there any mirror for use? I just can't download your roms from androidfilehost.com!! :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vagaBond07:
Untick strick monitoring. I believe thats the culprit.

pressing "Thanks" is faster than typing it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] feelpt:
btw, and sorry for th OT...

i see in your sign that you're using F2FS. i use it in my nexus 7 but never saw that big of a difference... how's your experience with our phone? is it worth the effort?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vagaBond07:
Well, its not so complicated to convert to F2FS, I use KTs TWRP and kernel, everytime I update I convert the zip file to F2FS using Ktweaker and flash normally. I can say its more smooth as butter. Add it up with SlimKatSaber on ART, it will really fly!

Back on topic,

Is the flickering gone?

pressing "Thanks" is faster than typing it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] feelpt:
thanks for the reply

the flickering is still here... tried all possible combinations of ticked/unticked boxes of those 2 items in dev options and nothing worked... i'l flash it again
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
No there is no mirror. Why can''t you download?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] HaTrED_:
Well, that's the one million dollar question!

It doesn't start automatically nor clicking the link: "...

if it hasn't."

I'm using Chrome but i'll try again later on, from home!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] _Sofos_:
Seems nice but I wish there was a black out option.. lots of whites!

Still it's a nice suggestion.

Try and change via STweaks GPU Governor from ondemand to Simple.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fivecheebs:
I am so completely loving this ROM. It brought back that "new phone" feeling :D

I have a couple of questions for you guys...

Firstly - and this is a really simple question so please excuse that - how do I do a dirty flash? no need to go into every step, but what stuff should i wipe? Same goes for flashing a new gapps on an existing install, do I need to wipe anything?

Secondly, can anyone help me understand what is happening when I force fast charge? I assumed it was a mechanism for forcing the charging current when, for instance, plugging the phone into a non Samsung charger that does not have the required resistance between the data pins. I have installed some USB ports into my car (not a cigar lighter type, but a flush mount type) and I cant pull more than 300mA through it even though its good for 1500mA according to the manufacturer. This is not enough to keep up with the draw from the GPS and screen. sure it helps, but its not ideal.

I have in my settings -

Force Fast Charge - enabled

Use MTP during fast charging - enabled

Screen on current limit - Enabled

AC charge level - 1900mA

USB Charge level - 1000mA

Fail Safe - enabled

Thanks in advance peeps :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] malybru:
Hi,

Dirty flash is just flash in recovery.

What needs to be wiped gets wiped automatically

thanks for your reply... i just reflashed the rom and the problem is gone

as for email app, you should have a look at kaiten email https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kaitenmail&hl=en

it's not free, but i tried big part of them email apps and end up with this one... also has native black theme. you can basically customize everything you can imagine related with emails

1 thing i find really useful is that you can define different led colors to notify each email account (maybe it's not new but it was one of the things that hook me up)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I would know where to begin to add an option like that, and like [MENTION=5528810]Jimsilver73[/MENTION] mentioned. this is the first release of Slim's Heads Up. Who knows what they are going to add to it.

If you really want the notifications at he bottom you need a third part app for now.

I'm combing Slim's Heads Up with Floatify to show selected notifications on the lock-screen and also at he bottom of my home screen for 10 seconds after unlocking. Works perfect for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
A lot off apps are running in the background. If they are well written they won't drain the battery. I haven't noticed any extra battery drain using Floatify.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Not sure I understand your question, but if you want heads up at the bottom then just install Xposed and reboot, then install heads up module, enable it in Xposed, reboot and voila, you will be able to go into the Xposed heads up module ui choose the option to show notifications at the bottom and you are good to go (after another reboot)

Here... This explains it

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fivecheebs:
They have changed the function of the back key when a heads up notification is showing. Basically, when a notification shows the back button controls the app that is behind the notification, and does not interact with the notification any longer.

[edit] AAarrgh! I'm way too slow lol[/edit]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
correct, that's only for those who are interested.

It's just the source used for things like qualcomm libs. it's something I changed to make my life easier, not having to maintain it myself :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] lost_:
Slim Heads up looks interesting, but I'm sticking with Notifier Pro for now. Can be set at top, middle, bottom, show on lock screen, with swipe behavior, themes, etc. There is a free version as well but the the pro one is worth it for me. Icon & per-app theme make it easy to tell which app is notifying.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] aleksik:
Hi everyone! I have been a CM user for months, but I've still been reading this thread and how everyone praise this ROM since kantjer started it. As CM was a 'almost perfect ROM' for me it was quite hard for me to leave it even to try something else. However, yesterday I made a decision to give this ROM a try and flashed the 7/8 version with beta 143 gapps. I've used alucard's kernels since January and always got great battery life with both CM and GE. Now today I kept my eye on the battery life as this was the first cycle with this ROM. I used my phone almost the same way I do everyday: mostly using Tapatalk, Chrome and Facebook with WIFI all the time. When I noticed my battery was at 50% I took a look at settings and it looked like this:

At this point I knew the battery life is great.

Now, like half an hour ago my battery was going to die so I took a look at the settings again and this is what I saw:

Here's some things about my settings: wifi: on (not while phone in sleep), location: on battery saving, screen brightness: auto, sync: on (Google, Facebook, Whatsapp, email (every 1 hour)), runtime: ART.

Apps used: Tapatalk, Chrome, Facebook, Instagram, email, Youtube (just for like 2 videos). I use Greenify (of course) to hibernate almost all apps (not system) except Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp.

Kernel settings are based on kantjer's awesome settings with some little differences.

Today's usage was pretty light, but it really made me smile to see that SOT of 7 hours! :)

Thanks [MENTION=3306843]kantjer[/MENTION] for compiling this super fast and clean ROM and sorry for making this post so loooong! :)

Has anyone got the Android "L" keyboard working on this ROM?

I can get it to work ok, but I'm unable to go into its settings screen, as the screen is corrupt.

Not seen this happen on any other ROM

(I've changed my DPI to stock 480 by the way)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gerxp:
Is there any way to change the fontsize in Slim?

Since there is no theme manager I am not sure how to do this best.

Or is it just a matter of changing DPI in build.prop over 480?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
You could try reading the FAQ in post #3
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I haven't tried it but it could be there is a conflict with some TDRS modified files in gapps.

Have you tried switching TDRS off?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gerxp:
Hehe, yes I read that.

But I just want to change font size.

If I change DPI then everything changes right? Not just the fontsize.

I noticed the same thing after posting that. It doesn't quite make sense as I didn't use my phone the whole 14 hours.. I'll see today if the phone actually goes to sleep or not :/ I edited my post and hide those pics, thanks for the tip! :)

I'm on vacation (at home) so I have lots of spare time, but as I said above I didn't use my phone for 14 hours so for some reason my phone didn't sleep at all yesterday.. :)

I'm using the L keyboard right now writing this :) I had the same problem with that weird looking corrupted settings screen, but I could still change the settings even it was a little 'different' :D I have changed the dpi too (441) so it could cause the problem. As you said neither I saw this on CM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gerxp:
My clock stopped working.

I can not set an alarm anymore without FC.

I tried to restore a backup, same thing.

Reinstalled latest Slim + slim-gapps, same thing.

How can this happen? What can I do about it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Have you tried clearing cache+data for the clock app?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Gerxp:
Yes. Did not help.

I installed an alarm app from Playstore. It works fine.

Still kinda strange that my standard clock gives FC's at setting alarm.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
just a note: default DPI is 480 ... the 441 value is PPI value which is connected to physical properties of the display
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] aleksik:
I know 480 is the stock dpi as I have changed it so many times in build.prop, but somehow I thought that 441 was the stock (best suitable) for our screen or something. Anyway, I have used 441 so long that 480 looks too big for me :)

I'm unable to change DPI. I have tried with texdroider and one another but it won't change.

Textdroider flashes some I/O error before rebooting. What could be wrong or is my internal card broken?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sevsman:
Well it's all relative really. Personally I like the real estate that you get with a smaller DPI and I think it feels snappier (simply placebo).

But then again, it also depends on what your preference is. In my xperia days it was always slimkat that used a small DPI and I guess it made the screen feel bigger.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kofe:
Try flashing superSU.zip and then try again.

I'm getting strange behaviour on the external sd card regarding write permissions.

I've checked platform.xml, and this seems ok.

Titanium backup keeps on reporting insufficient storage when I'm trying to backup a batch of apps.

removing .write_test folders doesnt seem to cure this for me.

if I get to an adb shell at the # prompt and cd into /storage/sdcard I get "out of memory" errors if I try to touch a file or create a folder.

I've even tried reformatting my external sd card (64Gb samsung class 10) exFat formatted

Has anyone else had similar issues?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] munichsfinest:
It depends, sometimes I have it, sometimes it works fine. What I also have is the issue that I am frequently unable to copy files to the external SD via USB. It either doesn't start the transfer, or it stops while doing it. I have it formatted to exFAT too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I'm still using FAT32, no issues with that
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I dont think its related to FAT/exFAT

Its a permissions issue.

In an adb shell for example, if I do the following:

cd /storage/sdcard1

ls>ls.txt

i get

/system/bin/sh: can't create ls.txt: Out of memory

If I cd /sdcard then all is ok.

Its not all the time though.

Sometimes it works, especially after a reboot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
Are you using the built in superuser or SuperSU?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] munichsfinest:
As I have the same problem: I started to flash superSU in recovery because it works more reliably. The problem is a bit less frequent with superSU, but that might be placebo, coincidence...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I have superuser in dev options set to apps and adb and flashed SuperSU.

That for me works best. No root access issues at all.

I have to be honest and say I'm not a fan of the new multicoloured boot animation. No offence to DJDoberman, I'm sure he put a lot of effort into it. It's just my personal taste. I prefer the old one :)

I notice on Alucards kernel thread he says to delete the data/.alucard folder before flashing his updates.

As your ROM includes his kernels should we be doing this before updating your ROM too?
