Hmm someone else reported this also... i added some selinux and symlink stuff to the updater-script, during 0.8.x dev versions, which have been working ok for me. For 0.9 i accidentally deleted the changes and brought them back for 0.9.1. Again, working well for me.

Could you post all of the error? I mean all of the cwm output, it could help pinpointing the lines which are causing this.

Also i checked, no Windows eols on those files (at least the templates). I use linux all the way, so there shouldn't be...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Just did a semi-clean installation of 0.9.1 (formatted /system prior install). Updater-script works fine. Hmm, i wonder if this is about CWM version or the firmware symlinks that are done in the beginning of the updater-script...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
What gapps package do you use?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
File name: gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip. No recollection where i downloaded it. It has broken Sound Search so find a better one. Someone mentioned PA gapps to be working better...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
Status 6 error with 0.9.1 also for me, log report is:

..hope this helps!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
What version of CWM are you using? And yes, the lines i copied from CM updater script are the culprit. Hmm, propably just revert to old which seems to work fine...

[MENTION=5150212]mythi[/MENTION] 's 6.0.5.0 that is here in original dev section...works fine with everything, backups and everything else...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Ok, i need to test that myself, running 6.0.4.7 currently. 0.9.2 uploaded, try that one.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
My Status 6 was with CWM 6.0.4.5 since it works about three times faster for backup and restore. I just updated to your 6.0.47 build and it works fine. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
mhmhmhmh... does 6.0.4.7 works fine with backups?

[MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION] what do you suggest me to do? stay with 6.0.5.0 and try 0.9.2 or flash your 6.0.4.7 and use 0.9.1 (i don't know if those lines that are causing status 6 error are some improvements that should be used and that, for what i've undestrood, in 0.9.2 are reverted to an old version)??
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes 6.0.4.7 works fine, just much much slower at backup and restore than 6.0.4.5
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
I haven't tried 6.0.5.0 so cannot say what you'll be missing. I'd say you can stay on 6.0.5.0, if 0.9.2 works that is. I reverted the bad lines, hopefully it'll work better now. If not... then 6.0.4.7 it is, untill i figure out what gives with 6.0.5.0

Edit: just noticed that there's still two lines left on 0.9.2... crap
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
Thanks but...can't find the recovery on [MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION] 's GDrive folder... where did u get it?

Edit: found it in CM11 GDrive Folder, is that the right one? as i'm not with windows os now, did you have a flashable zip? otherwise i will try this evening at home with odin, no problem! ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
Thanks man..only one more question, can i flash it from a newer CWM version? ( from 6.0.5.0 flashing 6.0.4.7)

Edit: Yes, i can! ;)

Edit 2: [MENTION=4403217]Pkt_Lnt[/MENTION] you're damn right, 6.0.4.7 is f*ckn slow @ doin backups.. it's taking ages... can it be the 'verbose' mode it use that slows it down? 6.0.5.0 wan't so slow..never tried 6.0.4.5..do you have a zip to flash for it? i'm curious to test it.

EDIT 3: regarding the slow backup i've found this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=39006690&postcount=66 ..when the damned backup will finish i will try that tip, hope can help!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Tried the rom manager trick and backup was done in 9 minutes (2.5GB overall backup size). Good or bad?

Edit: i rarely do cwm backups nowadays, always changing roms and dualboot is a bit tricky with it.

On another note, started trying the JustArchi's optimizations. For some reason Linaro 4.8 and kernel aren't in very good understanding, lot's of Waggressive-loop-optimization errors and other stuff...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
9 minutes is a GREAT time... mine took over an hour.....(without the rom manager trick)...

btw i'm playing around with 0.9.1, so far none is wrong except that i don't have the carrier name displaying (same as previuos builds) but only code 22201. Tomorrow will test bluetooth pairing that was the only thing that forced me to go back to stock samsung rom. finger crossed! :p
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:

Here is the screenshot of the cwm log trying to install 0.92 with cwm 6.0.4.5
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Ok good, i thought it was faster than before, had a recollection that it took ages when i did backup last time. Bet then i had dualboot rom installed also, so it backs up twice the stuff...

Haven't looked at the carrier names, not really a feature i use... maybe later. And for Bluetooth; no updates to the code about it so propably same results.

Yeah, i noticed those set_metadata-lines yesterday. Uploading 0.9.3 now, hopefully it's fixed now.

Also, i got a version built with Linaro 4.8 and JustArchi's optimizations. Seems to work so far, only Play store icons are messed up (Linaro bug) and saw one grapchical glitch on the pulldown menu, but it seems to have gone away. Speed, well might be bit more fluid, but Antutu score is the same. I'll put it online later today.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] O-T:
Some input about bluetooth disconnect issue for handsfree & media streaming.

Connect usually work but when starting a call or playing it crash.

[MENTION=5266778]JASONRR[/MENTION] had this to say:

The issue with the bluetooth is with the framework.jar with a missing looper which was implemented in the CM builds somewhere in March.

Sadly I'm back on stock for this reason :o
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Hmm, good to know. I need to hunt down that implementation someday.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] olarf:
Just in case it maybe helps here, while the BT bug didnt exist in your 29.07 cm11 build it exist in mythis 19.07 PAC build.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Holy moley, holy guacamole, holy toledo, wow! This took leaps ahead with the last few releases!

GPS almost instant lock precise location, locations working fine, Google Now working prefect. All my notifications for social media, sports apps all are working.

And battery life, amazing. With my daily use, one hour bus commute each way while streaming Google Music, nine hours at work, a few texts, a few twitter exchanges, couple dozen emails, checking calendar appointments, maybe 6-8 phone calls. in the early versions of this and your 4.3.1 AOSP, when I arrived home 13 -14 hours after I left, I was usually between 20-25% battery.

Today, first full day with 0.93, I had 65% battery when I arrived home. I used to turn off GPS and wifi, and have Tasker turn it on as needed by specific apps. Those were both left on all the time. Now I have the tremendous battery life that my Nexus 7 tablet gets with 4.4.4 stock.

I cannot thank you enough for this. Wowzer!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] SamuTnT:
I can confirm that on your cm11 the BT works flawlessly, i'm now on it and it's my new daily ROM, it works perfect!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Currently uploading optimized 0.9.4, mostly the same as unoptimized 0.9.3, excluding the kernel and display-caf changes needed to get it built.

I need to set up some timed builds, now that did the optimized version, every build needs to be done twice, all the way. Switching toolchain needs total workspace cleanup so it's gonna take more time. I'll be installing Jenkins and setting up some SlimKat, maybe CM11 and aosp builds to run on my home pcs.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] vanyel:
just flashed 0.94-opt.. couple of questions... reboot option missing? the USB debug mode icon is a couple of vertical bars? Thanks a lot for the work you've done.. Stock sucks...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
This one, 0.9.4 eats battery at about four times the rate of 0.9.3. After only 6 hours I was at 35% battery, compared to 65% battery after 13 hours on 0.9.3, Hmmmm?!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
I did notice a higher battery drain when first flashed to rom, but now battery stats say 1d 7h 30m on battery with 46% left... i wonder if the different gcc + optimized flags cause something to crash and drain battery occasionally. Oh and battery stats say that Screen is 25% and Phone idle 21%, kinda strange as usually the screen has taken a lot more. Well, have to monitor the situation. If the optimized version really is a battery hog, reverting to normal should fix it.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
There's no reboot option in AOSP :). Use xposed, gravitybox (among other plugins) allows to add them reboot settings.

Yes, usb debug icon seems to be like that in AOSP.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] O-T:
Suggest to not implement Linaro 4.8 to minimize bug sources :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, back to 0.9.3 and battery drain has stopped. I should have done a better test with Better Battery Stats, but I did notice that there was almost no deep sleep with 0.9.4.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jhon998:
3 hours and battery is dead, on optimized 0.9.4, do you recommend me to dirty flash 0.9.3?

attachments: deep sleep must be bigger
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I just restore my band backup. I always do one before upgrades, for exactly this reason.

nexus 7.2 // kk 4.4.4 // tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jhon998:
so 0.9.3 isn't a downgrade?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Same except for for no optimizations as I read the post where [MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION]announced 0.9.4.

nexus 7.2 // kk 4.4.4 // tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
0.9.3 and 0.9.4-optimized are the same code base, 0.9.4 has newer DualBootPatcher. Yesterday i got Jenkins doing my builds, i'll be releasing regular and optimised versions with same version number in future.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
[MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION] whats wrong with hwcomposer (in display caf) compile errors they just need deleting some lines , wth is this happening to the jactive while jflte doesn't need this :0
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Hmm i've had problems with hwcomposer only when compiling with Linaro 4.8. I forked the display-caf and fixed three or so lines which declared functions inline (removed inline). With default toolchain changes not needed.

OTOH, i haven't checked my Jenkins for last nights builds so don't know if the builds have gone through...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Hmm, Aosp builds have failed last night, libqservice seems to be missing... i wonder if this is related to the display-caf thing?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Well, the plot thickens: there's display-caf-new and media-caf-new repos in addition to old ones... need to do some digging to find out which one jflte is using currently. Forking those would get a stable base to make builds from, but updating it is gonna take time with all the manual merging from cm repos... meh
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Found the problem for failing builds; CM's qcom-common has major changes, which meant some build varaibles were missing etc.

Building 0.9.5 now, changes:

- kernel: Msm qdsp6v2 updates from TW kk 4.4.2 kernel

- framework: some minor bluetooth and gps code merges from CM

Oh and i've been running optimised version for a week now and no problems with battery. Currently 19h 50min on battery with 65% left. Very light usage since boot last evening. WakeLock Detector says 15% Awake, with Google search x1124, 16 min 27s
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I know my battery consumption is higher because I am in a mountainous rural area with few cell sites. I vary from weak 3G to 2G to better 3G in the 15 miles from home to work. I went back to 0.9.2 with the gapps recommended in the CM11 thread and got much better battery over the last 4 days. Also, 0.9.3 and 0.9.4 had some touchscreen hesitation on scrolling for me that 0.9.2 did not have, I have no idea why.

Installed the base 0.9.5 to see how it does today on the commute to and from work and day at work.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
I was referring to previous posts about optimized builds draining battery, maybe it's some specific app that does it with optimizations.

0.9.2 and 0.9.3 have same kernel, so the touchscreen problem might be something related to display-caf from CM...

Might try another gapps package in future.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
The battery drain with 0.9.4 opt was odd, no evidence of what in BBS, or anything I could find. When I reverted to 0.9.2, I installed the minimal gapps from here and download the others I wanted from the Play Store.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50632468&postcount=1

Now, today, 0.9.5 is running stable, smooth, and excellent battery life, even on first day with no time to settle. Nicce work! :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Good to hear its working. I'm implementing TW KK kernel stuff, there are some Bluetooth upgrades on optdev4-version, uploaded to dev-folder. So those of you with Bluetooth problems, try it out. I'm running it currently, but don't have a lot of bluetooth devices to test with. It's built with Google's GCC ver 4.8, so play store icons are ok.

Also i implemented some camera related stuff from TW kernel, but no change in camera functionality. As i suspected, current kernels aren't the culprit with camera problems.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Finally some success with camera: copied some code from CM camera app, which seems to have stabilized the camera quite much. Changed settings (flash, hdr, video res etc.) and no crashes. Also taking hdr pics seems to be working, finally....:victory:

The problems with camera freezing seems to stem from camera not disabling autofocus on certain occasions. Also Samsungs ZSL feature seems to have something to do with that.

I'll do some more testing, currently i have only one dev build made which has some uncertain kernel changes. Next release shouldn't be far. There's AOSP_4.4.4_r2_I9295_spegelius_v0.9.6-optdev11.zip uploading for those who like to live on the edge.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jericoacoara:
dirty flashed that build.

I can take photos and HD vids.

Doucle checked this effects:

-Camera crashes when trying to change to front cam. Reopening of cam is possible

-Camera crashes when performing the following steps:

- change to "focus effect" (not sure thats the correct translation)

- take photo

- change back to cam

- take photo --> cam freezes, reboot necessary.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Camera crashing means the camerwrapper (or camera app) has bug or some setting is wrong. Camera freezing means the camera driver hangs, might be bad setting or needs more of the autofocus/preview disables. Goog thing i got only half way in to the camera code.

Focus effect... would that be a scene setting?

Also exposure setting crashes the camera.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jericoacoara:
Sorry, bad german translation. The correct phrase would be "Lens blur".
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Ah ok, that's Google camera or something... i have no experience with that and since it's not supported on the rom's stock camera, i don't know if there's anything to be done to it. But i'll investigate.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jericoacoara:
Oh, I seem to be messing with camera apps. So I think I now found the correct one (V 2.0.002, eng.ppiippo...).

That one looks better: HD recording works, Photos also. Great!

Switching to frontcam makes cam crash, but app is restartable by stopping and

wiping data in app-info.

Again, sorry for using the wrong app!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
No problems. Personally i've found the stock camera app adequate fr my needs, though Google Camera seems nice. But currently i'm just trying to get the stock app working, after that i hope to have more knowledge about what to do with 3rd party camera apps.

And as the dev version seems stable, i'm releasing it as 0.9.6:

incremental camera fixes, toggling flash and HDR shouldn't freeze the camera, at least so much. There's still bugs, but easy does it...

kernel: Newer bcmdhd drivers from TW KK 4.4.2 kernel

kernel: Wcd9xxx stuff from TW KK 4.4.2 kernel

kernel: Cypress touchkey, leds and max77693 stuff from tw kk kern

optimized build: changed to Google's GCC ver 4.8, no more broken playstore icons
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pen²:
Are there any known problems which disqualify this build as a daily stable driver? Cm experimental is, unfortunately, too experimental for me...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
I've been running builds since 0.8 more or less daily, no crashes and problems (other that what are known). Then again, my usage isn't that diverse, so of course there might be bugs with some feature i'm not using. Only bigger problem has been the Camera, but in latest even that has improved. For me, easily a daily driver.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Jericoacoara:
Since I decided to root my phone some weeks ago, I'm using it as a daily. Since camera is working mostly,

It's nice, bloatware free, fast and good to the battery.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I'll chime in as well. It is rock solid for everything I do. I am very busy with some medical treatments and going to many new places, so heavy GPS use. I use many apps heavily since I need to arrange things,keep in touch and keep entertained. :D

Phone is solid as can be on cellular and I use Tasker to activate VoIP calling via the native dialer at home where my service is too poor to use in the house and that is rock solid as well. I do not use anything in the camera other than standard photos and it works. I'm going to do some more testing on video just to see, but I really do not use it normally.

I have a number of Xposed modules running to fine tune what I want, in particular Gravity Box and again, no issues at all. This is a stable daily driver for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pen²:
Hmm unfortunately no luck for me - with CWM 6.0.4.7 and coming from experimental CM 11, I did a factory reset and flashed

0.9.6-opt (non-dualboot) and minimal gapps from Jun 20 2014 (linked some page before this one).

After cyanogenmod bootimage, I was greeted with FC of com.android.phone and that cyanogenmod account has stopped. This one went into a loop, after each "OK" it stopped again.and I couldn't do anything.

Then I wiped fully again, flashed 0.9.6 non dualboot, non-opt. No gapps. Reboot, same thing (com.android.phone + cyanogenmod account).

Then 0.9.6 non-dualboot, non-opt with gapps, same thing.

What am I doing wrong here?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Didn't format system?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pen²:
Maybe, I had the same assumption - but in my cwm, I don't know how to format system - I can only wipe all user data and wipe caches.

How can system be formatted?

(I recall that there are flushable zips, but I cannot find one for I9295 - and I am unsure whether I can use zips from other phones as the partition numbers are explicitly set and I don't know if system is, for example, always the 3rd partition)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
In CWM, there should be a menu item called Mounts and storage. Under there you should be able to format different partitions. I suggest formatting /system and /cache (/data not required since you have done factory reset).

Formatting /system was removed from installer script because it made dirty flashing harder (and it removes dualboot roms). Other roms, like CM11 employ a backup feature on their updaters which backs up gapps and some other stuff(?) before format and restores that stuff after format.

Hi Bro spegelius,

Thanks for your help in the other threads, currently running on your AOSP_4.4.4_r2_I9295_spegelius_v0.9.6-optdev11 rom. Previously when i wanted to install this rom, in the other experimental thread i mentioned i kept getting crashes and no cell services and everything. So i tried my luck and did a full system format and installed this aosp rom. and it worked. everything seemed fine. fast and responsive.

Decided to try out this rom instead is because the [ROM][Unofficial/Experimental][Android 4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 for SGS4A (int'l) rom had call audio issues but it was a good stable rom except for the call issues.

I'm trying to test which roms i can without eventually ruining my phone because i use it as daily. I'm just looking for a simple good stock rom away from the samsung nonsense that constantly lags my phone and eats it's battery.

Currently this AOSP_4.4.4_r2_I9295_spegelius_v0.9.6-optdev11 is running fine and awesome. Thank you. Any chance when will there be an sd card support for the camera?

:):):):) :good::good::good::good::o:o
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] elgorra:
Hi,

I use the xposed module called Pictures2SD. It will make the camera automatically record photos and video directly to the external SD Card. It's been working great with this ROM

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] spegelius:
Good to hear it's running well. CM is bit of a mess currently, CM devs have done a lot of changes to jflte device which impact jactive. I've running AOSP myself now too, dont have lot of time to debug...

No idea about camera and ext sd card. But as [MENTION=2693454]elgorra[/MENTION] pointed out, this can be changed with xposed module. I'm running gravity box and some other modules also, working fine.
