The wallpapers do change but not right away. When I catch my self its changed just not right away.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rekan_:
Very stable ROM!! The wallpaper issue for me is to just restart after applying the wallpaper.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Annunneo:
You don't even have to do that, just give it some time and it'll change.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] finneginsfast:
I had the same experience as this. Nice thing about bluetooth though is that it streams nicely when it's working. No popping or screeching that other roms sometimes have.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bequbed:
Does the Bluetooth work at all in the latest update?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] finneginsfast:
Yup, works great but I also had some weird issue with power amp as well. Hopefully it was a one off issue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] wahbufetz:
I don't have any root. Please help me solve it. Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
Enable it in developers options. Or flash latest SuperSU in recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Personal Sandwich:
I'm getting this also, but with 3.5mm jack rather than Bluetooth, and not specifically poweramp. It seems to happen when turning the screen on while playing audio, but not always. Sometimes it will give the message "System UI has stopped" repeatedly too. I'll try logcat it later today to see if I can work it out.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
I have exactly the same problem. Was perfectly fine yesterday. Then it became so terrible today that I had to factory reset. Seems okay for now, it did it once rebooted. It's fine now. Did not listen to music tho. Hope it gets fixed sooner rather than later. Keep me posted if you find a solution, will do the same.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
Can either of you recall if it happened during a switch in mobile radio, such as WIFI -> Mobile data or LTE -> E or no data.Your issues have happened to me during either of those circumstances.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
I'm not sure, I'll keep an eye out for the next time it happens
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Personal Sandwich:
Unsure here sorry. I toggle a lot., and walk in and out of wifi networks often . I tried switching to airplane mode and haven't got an issue in the last ~20 minutes (it was pretty frequent before).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Alfa_G:
Is the bluetooth bug still present in this rom?( i know it's a cm12.1 issue)I want to return
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
I'm unsure of which bug specifically. If it's bluetooth stability you're asking about, it's not as stable as a Stock/GPE ROM. Ever since getting an LG G Watch I found that some instability issues might happen in conjunction with WIFI. For example, if I was connected to WIFI and my watch went out of range, I couldn't re-pair with my phone and Bluetooth share started to FC and required a reboot.

I haven't had much issue as of lately now that I turn off WIFI before I turn on Bluetooth, which is a pain, but I do remember doing this when the CM11 kernel had a major change about a year ago. But more testing regarding this might be required, but I don't have the time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
Ok let me try to explain what happened: so I used the rom for a full day without any issue whatsoever, then while I was listening to my music the system ui started force closing endlessltly. Then when I rebooted it restarted the fc, cleared the cache didnt't solve anything. I did a factory reset since and it seems fine for now. Gonna reply again if it happend again.

Thanks a lot for the rom it's really great, I'd consider donating as soon as everything works, shouldn't take too long since it really is the only issue I encountered. Keep up the amazing work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Alfa_G:
yeah bluetooth stability. Im a heavy bluetooth user (in my car) and the connection was dropping randomly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Personal Sandwich:
OK so I've experimented more and can consistently reproduce when

Lock screen music visualization enabled

AND

Audio playing

AND

Phone is locked, then unlocked

So right now disabling music visualization is an easy fix for me. I think the problem is sorted, but will report back if not.

I've attached a partial log (adb in android studio cuts out and clears messages when systemui crashes). I am using xposed, but the probably started before I had it installed
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] noskojv:
In xposed your trouble.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] NIFTYTAT411:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
added music FC again

Ok, so I added some music through usb then when I started my music player (doubleTwist) it happened again. only 5 times this time rebooted and it seems to be fine now. Not quite sure it helps but that's what happend. No change in blutooth nor wifi nor 4g.

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------

ok well I'm not quite sure why XDA won't let me edit my post, but it continues to force close endlessly... the only way for it to stop is the stop the music playback (did it twice and it seems to work). it starts again few minutes after I restart the music playback. I'm gonna check if it's greenify the problem since I activated it at the same time as I added the music... not convinced it has anything to do with it tho.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
For now you, and everyone else with these issues, should use another kernel because it seems that some GCC flag is causing this and I'm trying to investigate this. I'm betting that it is a kernel issue, but anyone can come forward and say otherwise.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
FC caused by music playback

Thanks a lot for replying. I can confirm what I said earlier: stopping the music playback stops the force closing.

I searched a bit, but I'm not quite sure what does "use another Kernel" mean? how am I supposed to do that?

Thank you

I'm using an I337M which is the canadian variant
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
All the ROMs you see on XDA come with a kernel, the part that handles all the low level interactions between software and hardware. You could say at the highest level the ROM is basically the UI and the kernel handles over/underclocking of the CPU, to name one of the many things it handles.

You can mix and match ROMs and kernels, as long as they come from the same base, TouchWiz ROM and TouchWiz Kernel, CM-based ROM and CM-based Kernel. Since you've flashed the ROM, I hope you have an understanding of the difference between TouchWiz and CM.

You can flash a custom kernel just as you would flash a ROM, but make sure the ROM is flashed first or the stock kernel with the ROM overwrites it. I suggest Alucard_24's kernel or Tkkg1994's kernel (Grab the CM12 compatible one!)

Or you could go a bit more bleeding edge and use this new test kernel I just compiled :P. For those of you who read/skipped to this far, all I can say is:

Underclocked to 162MHz

New GPU clock steps: 128, 200, 360, 600MHz

Simple GPU Gov

Internal and External readahead set to 2048kb

Dynamic Fsync capabilities

Under/Overvolt capabilities

MPDecision completly removed in favor of intelli-plug by [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION]

Sched_autogroup enabled for better multitasking

Cache optimizations and L2 cache overclocking

Reduced WIFI wakelock time

Hybla TCP congestion algorithm included, Westwood set as default

LMK RB Tree improvements

If I forgot anything, you can always check my kernel sources

Most of these were taken from [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION], and I thank him for that. Just wanted to add a bit more capability to the stock kernel, still kinda experimental, and hopefully it fixes the freezing issue, but I haven't fully squashed all the bugs! My quad-core build server died recently, so I went back to my old one, so building time increased a lot for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
CM 12 or CM 12.1?

Just wanna make sure I'm supposed to dl the CM 12 one and not the CM 12.1? I'm looking at the tkkg1994 one, had alucard on my previous rom did not work all that well (horrible issue with the touchscreen not responding on lockscreen)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
Ok so tkkg1994 does not work brcause the rom is too recent, alucard still has the issue with the touchscreen not working on lockscreen. I'm trying your latest kernel now! Gonna keep you updated if I get any trouble or if everything works fine in the next few days. Keep up the good work!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
Try setting Multicore powersaving to disabled if you use Kernel Adiutor or set sched_mc_power_savings to 0 on some other kernel tweaker
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zbiba1:
same through jack here

Yup, same thing happens through jack with this latest kernel. Also the FC is still happening trying the june 7th kernel right now. It is defenitely a kernel issue you were right [MENTION=4829924]Synergy510[/MENTION] seemed faster tho can't wait for a stable version (may be placebo tho lol)

Hello,

I like the ROM, but there is a bug which annoys me.

I am not sure if I am the only one with this bug. I don't know how to explain, but I try.

When I am busy in a application, for example Whatsapp, and at that moment someone calls me, my phone starts getting buggy and almost freezes and I hardly can answer the incoming call.

Can you take a look at it? Or is this a known error?

Test builds for flashaholics

Here's a new test set of ROM and kernel combo. The ROM is built with GCC4.9, the difference between using GCC4.9 last time is now we're using the official SaberMod optimizations which are meant to handle any incompatibilities. So far, call recording still works, but I am unable to replicate any audio issues, so that may work as well.

The kernel has new enhancements regarding linking GPU ramp up to touch inputs which gives smoother operation. Performance profiles now control intelli-plug and GPU governors. Powersave and Balanced profiles use the Simple GPU Gov rather than OnDemand and enables Intelli-plug, the Performance profile turns off intelli-plug now. I'm still looking into fixing the setting of UC/OC frequencies. This kernel is included in the ROM.

My S4 died so I got an LG G3 and I'm leaving the S4 section. Thank you Synergy for all your updates and great work, it kept my S4 smooth and fast until the very last day. I appreciate all your effort in keeping his great device up to it's potential.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AnthonyVD:
the freezes happen in the latest build from 25/7 and 22/7. So something in those updates broke it. Can you check it out? There doesnt seem to be a pattern when it happens. Could be while rotating the screen or playing youtube etc etc. It was fine in 9/07

Edit: switched back to 9/07: everything runs smooth again. Also appears to be more stable
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
Thank you for all your contributions to not only my ROM, but the S4 forum in general! Have fun with the G3.

Sorry about that, stability is very hit and miss, mainly due to kernel changes, so a different kernel would probably fix most issues on more recent ROMs. The problem is that some custom kernels haven't been updated as of lately. If you've taken a look at my github, I do change my code on a near daily basis to try and find what's causing freezes and reboots, but they don't happen instantly, most happen after a day has passed.

I'm preparing another test/beta build before doing one final release before I take a vacation for a month. I'm leaving the US and won't be building from mid-August until mid to late September, so I'd like to get one test build out in hopes of leaving you guys with something stable while I'm gone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AnthonyVD:
Never the less, Its by far the fastest ROM I have experienced. Would be great indeed if you could release another build before leaving. Im sticking to the 9 july build for now. It has everything I need and runs perfectly.

Would a logcat after freeze help you out? I'd gladly help you out with this :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Synergy510:
Test Builds

The 2nd set of test builds are here for testing before next week's release, and I highly suggest that everyone runs this. Everything is very stable, freezing and such still need more time to be experienced.

ROM:

Updated SaberMod GCC 4.9 toolchain

Updates to compilation flags for stability

Added init.d scripts for FSTRIM and SQLITE database optimization

FSTRIM runs on /system, /data and /cache 1 minute after boot, but it only benefits people who use EXT4 because F2FS trims on its own.

SQLite script runs 1 minute after boot and vacuums and re-indexes all app databases

Scripts are still experimental, they must be run manually before working properly on each boot

Enabled strict aliasing optimization

Sync up with CM up and until August 5 @ 5:00PM PST

Kernel:

Version compiled with SaberMod GCC 4.9 optimized for cortex-a15 devices

Version compiled with SaberMod GCC 5.2, not optimized, but bleeding edge

People say a "device optimized" doesn't make too much of a difference if you build with the device optimization flags, which I do in both cases of the toolchains

Ramdisk updates

I stripped down the kernel again for stability's sake, I've removed:

Dynamic/Asynchronous Fsync

CPU/GPU OC. CPU OC never worked and GPU OC caused excess heat

Many misc commits

Sync up with CM

New color calibration interface

Interesting added support for low power panel mode, I don't know what it can do yet but I want to figure it out

BUGS:

Sound control: Headphone PowerAmp Gain is broken, I'm trying to find which pieces of the code to disable, but it doesn't hurt us

Reports of calls not working, but I need logs and more people to verify this

Stay on the lookout for freezes/reboots

Good to know, just a couple of questions: 1) Are you on the Test Build August 5? If so, did you fully wipe or no? 2) Are you using LTE? 3) Are your APN settings okay?

There have been a lot of updates, check the changelog in the second post for more detailed info on changes.

Can you be a bit more specific? Are you running the latest August 5th test build or are you reporting from the July 22nd? Check if your APN settings are correct. Try and forcing your network mode to 3G and see if your SMS works.

I did some researching and saw that another T-Mobile user on Reddit reported similar issues. Although I've yet to find anyone reporting this on the T-Mo S4 forums. I've remedied being unable to receive SMS by forcing myself on 3G, a pain but better than missing text messages while I try to figure this out.
