Well, OK this is strange. I'm running the current 090914 build, everything running smoothly. Was going to snap a pic of something hear at work just now, grabbed phone & discovered that I no longer have an icon for the Camera?! Rebooted phone, but that didn't help. Is there some way to get it back again? I'm almost positive that I've used it before after updating, tho' I'm not 100% sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Did your signal become low after installing this ROM? You can try installing the stock ROM or a different ROM to see if it's the ROM or if it's your phone or something else causing your low signal.

Which gapps package did you install? I think either the X edition or the X+ edition of jajb gapps package removes the camera app.

You also have the choice of installing a camera app yourself. There are some good ones out there:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] christoophat:
ah, so! Yes, I used the X+ edition, so that explains that. Seems a bit strange to remove the camera, I'd think most people would still want it <shrug> I installed Google camera, good to go. Many thanks!:good:

Hi I installed this rom with the minimal gapps and for some reason it can't connect to Google, already tried re-download of the gapps. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Edit - also re-download the rom
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Which gapps did you use? Did you download the ones I put in the download links?

Usually not being able to connect or log into your google account means that your /system partition is completely full, which might be the issue you're experiencing.

Download the gapps package I linked in the downloads post and reinstall the ROM and that specific gapps package.

GPS

Loaded the rom and it is sweet! I like the look and feel of it. It took me several times of installing and heimdalling back to original to get it to load properly. I kelt loosing the IMEI. Even after getting to a blue CWM, I was loosing it. So what I did was after getting the blue CWM, I flashed a (404) rom. the one I choose was, ICS Remix. After it booted, did a battery pull, wiped, cache, and user data. Then loaded the CM 11, all was fine. On the way home tonight, while running gps, I kept getting a "Loss GPS" warning. Does the GPS have issues?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
This version of TWRP that comes with CM11 has a "Backup EFS"!! Don't do this! If you restore it, your IMEI will be strange characters. Happened to me.

This rom rocks, very smooth. But having an issue which it seems due to the phone's limitation when I restore my Titanium backed-up files (a lot like 150 apps) with link2sd and 2GB 2nd partition. The phone works fine until reboot, which will keep booting forever and ever. If it does boot up, you will be greeted with a nice perpetual Force Close without going anywhere, which leads me to my only option to install beanstalk which doesn't have this problem.

Don't get me wrong, I like fb's work and this issue most likely not his fault but the phone memory limitation and/or CM11 itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Which GPS app are you using?

I'll have to look into this, I didn't test the EFS restore after adding the option for TWRP to be able to do a backup. Thanks for the heads up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rdorje1:
Just a simple THANKS to FB

Well my T959v is back in use again after over a year. I had to revert back after the loss of my newer device.

But thanks to you FB it is not painful but runs 4.4.4 very well. Your instructions worked without any issues.

Thanks again for all of the good work

Bluetooth

First off, this is an excellent rom, Thanks go out to the developers responsible for importing this rom to our phone!

I noticed a few days ago that my Bluetooth was not working, I went to turn it on, the slide switch will move to on, but the bluetooth never activates. Anybody else having this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
[MENTION=5563678]AgainstTheFlow[/MENTION] thanks, I was sure the GPS doesn't work at all on this device until your post made me run tests like yours and see that it's does work.

Small Question

Hello there...First , congrats this rom is great!!!But, I have a small problem. After receiving a message the bottom buttons:options ,home,back and search remain active but the screen is off.

It seems it affects battery life also.Anyone experienced this?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DickyG:
If you haven't used your phone in a while and the screen goes dark, the lit bottom buttons are a reminder that you have a notification...text, missed call, etc. It's a really excellent feature of this ROM. The lit buttons will disappear as soon as you access your text.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fanicafarafrica:
Ty man for reply...So this is normal. I was worried it was a bug. Also, do you know some ways to extend battery life?

Do we have that for our kernel?

[MENTION=3143394]champ1919[/MENTION]

Beyond that stuff, I don't see anything going on with tvout.

Boot up the phone, let things settle, and log while trying to go to the tvout settings and enabling tvout (if possible).

IIRC, I had to add logwrapper to the tvout service to get the real juicy logs for tvout that told me the problem, and with that IIRC... (deeper) that it was about incompatible proprietary binary for tvout. Granted, that was cm9/cm10.

Hi fb... You have plans for CyanogenMod 12 for this device?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
CM12 isn't even in an alpha state, let alone even usable on any of the other Galaxy S devices, yet.

I'm currently putting interest into aosp 5.0.0 port, but I'm just getting started. As usual, look for action on github.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MrWicket:
even better news in my book. really I only use the GS4G these days as a small tablet for my kids and KitKAt already breathed usability into this old phone so I would totally love a AOSP 5.0 rom to try on it.

Heimdall back to stock Gingerbread after flashing CM11

Hi,

I just finished flashing CM11, and it works greats. :good: Awesome job Team Acid! But now I want to Heimdall back to stock Gingerbread so I can unlock for my AT&T sim. My question is, do I need to worry about bricking my phone because of the 4.3 bootloader? Or can I just oneclick away?

Thanks.

Remove boot picture

Is there a way to remove the picture that show up during boot? I am talking about picture of a cat with a flashlight.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
I think that image is embedded in the kernel of the other cm11 ROM. Unless you know how you open up the kernel and swap the image (or just change the kernel), the short answer is nope.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You can use the source code for the ROM (the kernel will compile fine if you sync using the Team Acid custom manifest file)

You will need this tool:

https://github.com/morfic/Samsung-logo/

You need to replace this file with your own custom image created by that tool:

kernel/samsung/aries/drivers/video/samsung/logo_rgb24_niltmt_portrait.h

You can see it in our repo here:

https://github.com/teamacid/niltmt_...rs/video/samsung/logo_rgb24_niltmt_portrait.h

Once you have replaced the file, recompile the kernel/bootimage using the usual steps:

mka bootimage

Then you flash the output boot.img located at:

out/target/product/galaxys4gmtd/boot.img

To your phone. You will have the new image you used in the steps above as your kernel boot splash
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] my2038:
Preferred network type

I was playing around the ROM .. which is great!. I went into "Mobile network settings" and "Preferred network type". There are only 2 choices .. "3G" or "2G". I select "3G" and now I don't see a way to get back to 4G (which is just H).

How do we get 4G back?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] my2038:
Can you point me to a wiki (or web) page on how to compile the source?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You can follow most of the instructions in the wiki for the vibrant, replacing any instance of vibrantmtd with galaxys4gmtd

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_vibrantmtd

You should read up on using local manifests:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_Using_manifests#The_local_manifest

You can grab the team acid local manfiest for CM11 with TWRP here:

https://github.com/teamacid/teamaci...sgh-t959v/CM11-TWRP/teamacid_galaxys4gmtd.xml

You will need to place that file under .repo/local_manifests file in the work directory before you perform the first repo sync as instructed in the wiki.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] my2038:
I followed the instruction and got it complied. What is one way to flash only the boot.img instead of the entire galaxys4gmtd.zip file? Or do you recommend flashing the entire zip file?

On one of the step where the shell script extract_files.sh uses adb to pull the various .so file from the phone, I simply replace it with unzip from the rom zip file (on post #2). Since I didn't change those files in my phone, I don't see it has any difference with the file inside the rom zip. Do you see any problem doing that?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
If you have heimdall installed, it's the easiest way.

You can just do

heimdall flash --KERNEL boot.img

From the directory where your new boot.img is compiled. I guess if you don't wanna bother with that though, replacing the boot.img in the cm11 zip file with your own and then reflashing from there will also work.

You can also reboot your phone into TWRP and use the flash_image utility through ADB.

Once you have adb installed, put your new boot.img at the root of your sdcard and run:

adb shell
flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

You can now reboot to check if your boot image got flashed properly. If for some reason your phone doesn't boot now though, your only way of restoring it will be using heimdall using the instructions above, but you'll need to use the boot.img that came in the cm11 zip file. Your phone should boot up fine after that.

Hey!

Slightly off topic, but once cyanogen mod 12 comes out, would you be able to port it for SGS4G?

Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
No, and I suspect it wouldn't run well enough on this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nahtnam:
Thats true, but arent there some performance improvements and stuff?

Also, we can just overclock the phone to use max cpu performance.

When going to from cm10.2 to cm11, I noticed a huge performance improvement.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
The OS got a lot bigger going from KK to Lollipop, in addition to UI animations and other background services, your performance will be a little worse on L, at least that's been my experience with my Nexus 7.

This phone might struggle with the limited RAM and space, especially on the /system partition. I had to strip out quite a lot of apps from CM11 to get it to fit the ROM and gapps on /system with only a few megabytes left over free. If you were to try to install a Lollipop ROM you'd need to strip out even more components, and the latest gapps packages are even bigger now.

Anyway, I don't see many of the developers who used to hang out here hanging out here anymore, so a CM12 port doesn't look likely. As I said before, I certainly won't attempt it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nahtnam:
Ok. One other thing is that sometimes my phone lags out with the ROM. Is there anything I can do to improve speed besides overclocking the CPU?

Its fine most of the time, but I end up restarting the phone at least once per day because its frozen.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sharjeel.Khan:
Thank you

Thank u so much for this rom. it works excellent..

i'll really appreciate it if you keep dev roms and giv updates for this phone. i really loved your work. Keep it up.

Confusion :s

hi fb,

Tested it.. worked flawlessly. i know i'm late but i'm just sharing my experience.

I applied themes from themer, installed minimal set of gapps via provided link in OP. installed voodoo,

it all worked smoothly. Really BIG thank u for this.

I have upgraded from Vilhalla final so u might understand that i still need time to 'explore' this rom :)

_______

I need to ask a question, i still can't go to display > advanced setting. (someone else has already repoted this but i asked this again as it was long time ago and you might b able to figure that out)

another thing is that i am trying to change file permissions , because i need to apply this mod. . the one i'm using is of 40 mb :s , which is actually large size for being in internal memory. but i cannot move nor change permissions of that modified latinIME .

i have read that Kitkat has this issue that they dont allow users to edit permisions in SDcard due to filesystem or something.. if this is true, is there anything i can do to replace? please provide me step by step solution. it'd b really appreciated.

PS: i have enabled 'root access' in file browser & even tried with romtool box. didn't worked.

and lastly, can i have AM/ Pm on status bar? (time)

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I haven't gotten a good build going in a long while, so I won't be able to check the advanced settings bug for you. If I remember correctly it only contains backlight options and some tweaks for the screen.

40 megabytes won't fit on /system unless you delete some bloat. You may wanna delete the trebuchet and latinIME that come with the ROM before trying to install the mod.

Also that mod is pretty old, at least 9 months before the latest version of this ROM was released, that's probably going to cause some issues.

If you SD card is formatted as FAT, as it is in most cases, you won't be able to set any permissions because the filesystem doesn't support permissions. Why do you need to edit the permissions of the SD card file?

How are you verifying that the permissions weren't set correctly?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sharjeel.Khan:
its an honor talking to you :) thank u for quick reply.

as u know far better then me, then i must leave that advance setting issue, i've already got more then expected from this rom :)

yes u got it right, i just wanna delete (40mb) latinIME that came with this rom, infact i want to replace it with lighter (2.5mb latinIME), which has removed several languages and only has english.

if that mod is old, and u suggest me to let it be, i will. but is there any solution to free up some more space by removing other languages? i just want to have english. other languages are just taking space.

yes u are right again. i had formatted my card with fat, what do you suggest? should i temprorily move all files of SD to pc, and format SD card to some other file system?

i need to edit the permission of the file, that is on SD card, as on that thread stated "

"Copy to /system/app, give permissions as rw-r--r--, reboot and enjoy"

i am verifying permissons arn't set correctly from filemanager>menu>properties>permissons...

i cant edit permisson there to desired one.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You know, you can probably try installing the .apk file as a user app (without putting it in /system by hand). Just copy it to your sd card and then open it in the file manager, and accept the install. Some apps will complain about not being on /system but it's worth a shot, and it might be the easiest way to do it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sharjeel.Khan:
thank u

i just tired that. it said "App not installed".

and suddunly as we're talking.. i'm unable to send more then one sms (160 charcters) :s

do i have to flash another modem? which one do u prefer for this rom (CM11) ? :s

i dont think this issue came to anyone else from cm11. :S
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:

The issue's been around ever since KJ6 got released a while back. It's one of the few modems that can't send SMS messages greater than 160 characters

As far as installing your keyboard, you should just reboot to recovery and copy the file using the file manager built into TWRP. Just make sure you go into mounts and mount /system first, then you can go to advanced from the main menu, then "file manager". You can copy, move, rename, etc all from within TWRP. You should also be able to set permissions from there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sharjeel.Khan:
I REALLY "BELIEVE" YOU WHEN IT COMES TO ROM DEV..

Great : ) . solved multipule message send issue by installing modem.. thank u for the link.

Actully you were right, the keyboard you used in CM11 (this rom) is far better then that i was about to install and that was old too. so i preferd using your keyboard but with lightning the filesize, so i searched a little and deleted all dict files except needed. repacked APK. finally i got file of 3.38 mb from 40 mb.

Rest i did same as u mentioned, set the permissons to 0644 and yayyyyyy !!! it had to work : ) bcz u said soo : )

I m heartly thankful to you for your continous support to this phone and us.

Can anyone suggest me the best Custom Kitkat ROM for my LG P769.

I already rooted my phone and hence also suggest me easy method to upgrade my rooted phone..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] xdrc45:
You can't flash any custom ROM on your P769 unless your bootloader is unlocked. Unlocking the bootloader on these L9's is almost impossible... On the newer versions of the L9, LG encrypted the bootloader. So unless someone figures out a new method to bypass the encrypted bootloader your stuck with it being locked and not being able to flash any custom rom.

There are a few ROMs for the P769 that work with a locked bootloader thought and would be your only option for a ROM other than 100% stock.

I use the Kumakan v3 themed ROM on my L9. There's another one, UltraRom which is based off of the kumankan ROM and a CM9 ROM, all are for 769's with locked bootloaders.

To install them, your L9 needs to be rooted, have BusyBox installed and you use the L9 recovery installer to flash cwm recovery.

i was thinking about buying the htc one m8 but the lg g3 look like a great device. My main concern is that i haven't owned an LG phone in a very long time. The last one i owned was junk but granted it was before smartphones. What is everyone's opinion of their build quality and the phone as a whole? i know the lg g2 and g3 are different but just looking for some opinions. Another concern is the dev support for the g2 looks to be slim.
[Verizon LG G2] Lima.face:
I had a older LG phone (LUCID orignial). IMO LG went from making a Kia to Ferraris in terms of quality.
[Verizon LG G2] speedfreak228:
Thats what i was thinking. The lg g3 look amazing just hope the gorgeous screen isnt too bad of a battery drain. My wifes cousin purchased a G2 the other day. Messing around with her phone the other day is what got me interested in the G3. Thanks for the reply

I came from a Sammy phone and I'll never go back. Build is excellent, phone is powerful and excellent on battery. I believe the g3 has a bigger battery (but I could wrong, don't quote me on that). I'd recommend it.
[Verizon LG G2] acejavelin:
LG has a history of excellent phones... the VX8700 and enV had some of the best usable signal reception of any phone ever made back in the day, all other phones were compared to them for signal performance. Although prior to the Nexus 4, it could be arguably said that LG stumbled in the mobile phone realm for a while, they really turned it around the last couple of years.

They have made lots of phones, way more than most people realize, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LG_mobile_phones

Personally I think the G2 is one of the best phone I have ever owned, and I have never had one that in a normal day of use still has over 70% battery remaining. My work phone is a G2 and my person phone is a Nexus 4... I wouldn't hesitate to recommend LG to anyone.
[Verizon LG G2] pahick:
I believe yoou'd do well with a G2. I just bought a used on, coming from an S4. Battery life is great. Never went 3 days for a charge. But im going back to an S4(just bought another one). I cant get used to the feel of the G2. The sides are more rounded and slippy, and the placement of the volume on the back just doesnt work for me. But, overall if the G2 fits you well, its a great phone.
