The only problem I seem to be having on this ROM is regarding the lockscreen (the basic slide version) when playing music (Google Play Music)

For some reason, the album art shows on the "left" lockscreen (ie. the one with the "+" sign to add widgets)

I assign a torch widget to this, so albumart is shown underneath the torch widget. If I dont assign anything, I get the "+" sign over albumart. If I disable widgets on the lockscreen, then it shows on the front screen, but either way, I don't get the skip track/play widget buttons.

Also, volume key to skip tracks (Wanam Xposed) doesn't work, but this must be a Wanam issue as this doesn't seem to work on my stock rom neither.

I will give Goldeneye a go to see if I get the same problem, but ideally I would prefer to use Goldfinger.

If I go over to goldeneye, can I use the S5 weather widget on there from this rom (AccuweatherPhone2014.apk) as I think this is a big improvement on the S4 version.

Thanks

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION]

I've been off TW ROMs for over a year on my S4 now, and I was curious to try one out again, so I went for your ROM, and I have to say I'm absolutely loving it mate! Excellent job.

Apart from this lockscreen/music problem I'm experiencing, what would make this perfect for me would be to have the original settings menu layout instead of the S5 icons, but keeping with the S5 colours (as text scrolls much more smoothly being a non-black background). If this could be at all possible in a future build in Aroma, this would be fabulous!

Keep up the great work mate.

Hello.

Great ROM as always, though I do have a big problem. My Wi-Fi keeps disconnecting all the time.

To elaborate: I come from GOLDENEYE v34 ROM, where everything was fine and cool, nothing was broken apart from camcorder huge delay, so I was thinking of upgrading, so I upgraded to this ROM. The problem now is though that while Wi-Fi connects and works, every 2-3 minutes it disconnects and after a few seconds disconnects. Sometimes it shows "Authentication Error", sometimes it doesn't show anything when it has disconnected. It's a really annoying problem that I did not have back in Goldeneye.

Is it possible it's because I need a different modem/non-hlos for this ROM?

My info

AP: i9505XXUGNH7

CP: I9505XXUFNBH

CSC: I9505VFGGNI1

The WiFi is 2.4Ghz on main channel 13 HT20+20. Laptop has absolutely no problem with it, so doesn't any other Android device in the house.

Have you done a full wipe?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bladez:
Yes, I did a full wipe before flashing, including a complete SD-card and Internal storage wipe.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I'm not sure what bootloader you're on, but its certainly worth upgrading your GSM modem to NH7 at least, and ideally the LTE modem too, but you may have to trip your Knox to do this if you have not already done so by possibly updating from an old bootloader.

You may have a slightly weak wifi signal, so it may be worth unticking the Smart Network Switch option if it's ticked.

See here

Regarding my lockscreen/playing media problem. I've spotted what the problem is.

When turning the screen back on into the lockscreen during media playback, the play/rewind/skip widget buttons ARE there. Its just that its not shown as the default screen initially. You need to swipe the top of the screen right to left to see it.

This is not normal behaviour, as this doesn't happen on my stock ROM build. ie. the correct lockscreen is shown as soon as the screen is activated.

One other question, still lockscreen releated:

When I receive SMS, all I get on the lockscreen is "message"

I get a small box of who the message is from, and the some message itself on the stock bog-standard SMS app.

Is there any way I can re-enable this behaviour please?

Edit: Just found it under message>settings>notifications>preview message>lock screen

:good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bladez:
Yes. I tried a few other kernels included in ROMs Aroma, with full wipe, but the problem with WiFi still stands. There's also nothing wrong with the signal, it shows full bars with link speed around 150mbps.

Need Fast Charging from Kernel.

Hey all.

Thanks again Dev.

Just a updated to 4.1 to fix my email crash. This has worked awesomely.

One feature I'm desperately missing that has changed in this release, is Fast Charging. I mirror link my phone in my car and need this option to ensure my battery doesn't drain.

In your prev releases u had support for Alucard built into your Rom, which enabled this feature.

I've flashed using Talex, but this won't do Fast Charge.

Can u advise if the other Kernel u support has this feature.

Thanking you.

On the lockscreen in the stock ROM when multiple widgets is checked and you swipe the top of the lockscreen from right to left, you get a window of application icons which you can select. (EasyLauncher???)

Is there any way to get this feature in this ROM please?

Am I the only one with the lockscreen bug when music is playing, and the media lockscreen buttons is not the one that is shown by default when you switch on the device? I tried another factory reset and the problem is still there. Just wondering if there is something I'm overlooking.

Also, I see the Smart Stay quickpanel icon, but I dont see this anywhere in any of the Settings sub-menus. Has the "Smart Screen" sub-menu been overlooked for some reason perhaps?

Thanks

Which choices did you make during Aroma installation, any tweaks? And which kernel did you choose? With wi-fi and data on and if you use wi-fi active, in 45 min %5 battery consumption is a good result.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mrlengfung:
just use the default option in Aroma.

after 3hrs of use now I'm 60% battery..

in Phoenix 9.4 ROM usually im on 30% right now..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] lawyer_06:
I am not on Goldfinger now, i am on Imperium v12, so i don't know the default Aroma options in this rom.. Thus which options are default and which kernel did you choose? Can you explain elaborately? And during getting this 3 hours screen on time with 40% battery consumption, were you using wi-fi active or your screen was on but your wi-fi was off? I mean were you surfing on any browser?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mrlengfung:
i've used the Talexop kernel..

3hrs 45min hours later im now on 40% in my battery..

3hrs 2min screen on time..

i did 2hrs -- watch 40min series(stored in extsd), facebook and reading manga using chrome (wifi)

1hr data facebook and twitter..

almost 4hrs and im still in 40%..not bad..

im using this ROM just today..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dbappa:
Is this a good performance with the battery? 5hr 45min on battery with 15% left (watching, browsing and downloading), screen time is 3hr 28min, using default kernel with 4.0 and followed set up guide to disable all of the bloatware/sync stuff . My battery feels like it drains so quickly when the screen is on. I think it would only take a few hours to drain completely when watching video with data/WiFi off. I have managed way more than that in the past.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ricardofago:
Yep, my battery life also seems to suck right now. I've always been a fan of Adam kernel on stock, but right now my battery drained from 100% to 94% in one hour completely idle while I got ready to work, no usage, 2G-only, syncing only calendar, CloudMagic and WhatsApp, location services off, no Wi-Fi, power saving on and LeanDroid enabled to trigger data for 1 minute every 30 minutes. On KangaKat I used to get ~1%/hour under the same circunstances on stock kernel. Just came from a clean install a couple of days ago.

Has anyone else tried the other kernels? I always felt like talexop is pretty similar, but I'm no good at configuring the cusom ones (from alucard_24, googy_anas and ktoonsez). I'll try to play with them over this week.

Edit: flashed talexop after some heavy usage (~20% battery drop in a row) and then idle again. After a while it does feel better, no drop (percentage actually raised a bit). Will report back after a longer and more consistent evaluation.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Following on from my original post regarding the lockscreen problem whilst playing music.

I've managed to narrow it down a little.

It actually works correctly initially as long as multiple widgets is NEVER enabled.

As soon as you enable multiple widgets on the lockscreen it breaks the correct behaviour for the default lockscreen during music playback.

Even subsequently disabling multiple widgets doesnt cure the problem.

So if you want your music keys to show when you first turn on your lockscreen during music playback, never enable multiple widgets on lockscreen.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Darkwing_X:
It is highly recommended, because there is also S5 framwork, and it may conflict with S4 leftovers.

Could you allow us in aroma to select the preferred csc from a list of many?

Eudemony has this and I think it's great!

Well.. when I find myself on Att or *#& I usually copy my saved csc, reflash the stock recovery and change the csc with the csc changer app...

So much work.. [emoji38]

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Firstly I download and install my latest stock firmware from sammobile. For me on EE in the UK this is XXUFNC4.

You can extract the image files from this to obtain the individual files/folders within the firmware via utilities but I wont go into that here, so for simplicity, just boot up into stock firmware and copy the following files somewhere:

/system/csc

/system/etc/apns-conf.xml

/system/etc/sap.conf

/system/etc/spn-conf.xml

/system/csc_contents

/system/CSCVersion.txt

/system/SW_Configuration.xml

After downloading a custom ROM I open the zip with 7Zip, and delete all the contents within /system/csc (except for /system/etc/common) and copy the above files into the correct places in the zip, and then flash.

I am by no means claiming to know anything about CSC files of a ROM and I have no idea if this is a complete list (there may be more, and some of the above files may not by required), but these are the files/folders I copy out, and everything seems to work. When I look at all the CSC information using Phone Info, and via *#1234# in the dialler, all seems correct for me.

I've got the same issue with battery life. It is strange because I am coming from another ROM in which I didnt had it. I've flashed clean and I am using i9505 version of the phone (it is this subforum lol). The only thing which I can relate my problem is that I needed to flash twice the ROM with the same settings as it is instructed in the OP, because of the AROMA problem which occurs when flashing 1st time (cant boot after "SAMSUNG i9505" logo). Battery is drained out mostly of Screen (way too much, around 50%, which is HUGE taking the fact I am using it as always and it stands around 30-35%).
