This firmware is really smoother compared to the older version and the camera works. But if i use panorama funktion the camera crashes. I installed the i9295 firm.+ aroma

Spherical pano work's well.

great job JASONRR. thank you so much.

Is Philz touch still the recommended recovery for this? It hasn't been updated for a while now.

Which recovery do you recommended?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] ederekun:
BTW... is there still a posibility that this phone can get android 6 update TouchWiz? Some articles say that s4 and note 3 variants aren't gonna get the android 6 update of touchwiz...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] ederekun:
One problem also... my phone is draining battery even it is in standby when wifi is on...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
All modes are not workin in S6 camera. If you want all modes then use the ROM with 9295 libs and stock S4A camera

I use multi rom TWRP recovery

S5 will get android 6 update, but I do not think that Sammy will release an update to android 6 for S4 as it has crossed the 2 year timeline.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
You can check which apps is consuming battery and you can use greenify from playstore to hibernate the app (stop running in the background). For kernel settings you can follow from the below link

When trying to setup greenify the Settings crashes when you need to give permissions. See picture below.

A video sent by my friend is seen to have audio... but when i use s6 video player... it doesn't have audio
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
You will need to install TTS addons to get rid of the fc in accessibility settings. I would recommend to use the ROM with 9505 libs for the S6 camera and use ROM with 9295 libs for Stock camera.

I do not have this issue, need more info on this to debug it
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] ZeroZorro:
Do you think a dirty install is possible to change from 9295 to 9505 libs or visa versa [MENTION=5266778]JASONRR[/MENTION] ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Yes, you can dirty flash either ROM's without any issues, only clear data and cache for the apps where you have issues viz. camera, etc.

pls my tethering hotspot do not allow more than one device even though i set it to allow all devices and never to time out. what could be wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] AtomicAardvark:
Hi [MENTION=5266778]JASONRR[/MENTION],

I have run the new ROM (I9295 libs) for a bit more than a day now. The ROM is smooth in general. I followed your advice on kernel settings from Droidblitz and I am not experiencing any super heat from the rear of the phone.

The wifi is also not "sleeping" anymore. All good there.

Phone sound is great.

Youtube is 100%.

Zoiper is 100% so far. I am still waiting for someone to call me while on a VOIP call.

Bluetooth sound is 100%.

Camera seem to work with all settings I tried.

The only slight issue I have picked up is with Stweaks. Sometimes it works without issue. Then it is the old "Sorry, no kernel support" and then after fixing it it does not get past "Loading...". So I froze it with TB and installed Kernel Adiutor. I am running Busybox Pro (Stericson) installed in xbin and Xposed. So all good now.

I'll see if I can replicate some of the other bugs mentioned.

---------- Post added at 06:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

[MENTION=5266778]JASONRR[/MENTION], I am having the same experience. I also tried Wanam in Xposed to set the "amount of devices that can be connected to" to 4 and even 6. No luck. If I add any devices to "devices I trust" then non wants to connect in the "Only allow trusted devices" or "Allow all devices".
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
I am not sure if kernel Aduitor will work, the issue with STweaks could be due to busybox, you can re-flash my kernel and it should fix the issue with STweaks. The got to know of the issue with hotspot, this is due to me using the old settings app in the ROM by mistake, will post an update shortly.

FC in Settings

Hi there,

I am on the V6.2 with update. Baseband and Firmware are OF1. If I select "Themes" or "Wallpaper" in Settings I get a force close of settings. Is there something from the addons which I have to install in order to change the wallpaper? Do I need something from the addons in order to get power saving mode and/or ultra power saving mode working?

Best wishes,

Christian
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] ZeroZorro:
From addons you need Theme Manager, probably Live Wallpaper Picker and for power saving you need Power Saving & Security and Samsung keyboard. All is clearly described in the first 2 pages of OP.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] zepoy:
still no go... i'm still stuck on extracting modem.........installing...:(
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] sartana:
As i said you, after installing another Rom , PAcman , i can't install anymore yours Rom, both V1 and V2.

This morning i tryed to flash other roms to see if i can or if it's a problem depending on pacman, so i flash CM11 and Carbon Rom, both flash and run without problem.

So, i try to flash your firmware via recovery without result, it's stuck on extracting modem from 10 minutes...i think something goes wrong.

For now i restore pacman save. I assume that there's something whit cm11 source and your tw that are not compatible, cause every cm rom works.

Next step, tonigh or tomorrow, i'll flash original firmware from odin then i retry your rom's flash.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Seems strange to me as I flashed it again (from internal storage) and timed it this time, the modem file size is a little big and took 2 minutes and the entire file completed in 3 minutes. Let me see of another way to flash the modem and update the zip. I am having Philz Touch 6.57.9 under CWM 6.0.5.1 and the zip is on my internal sdcard.

Just one question when you select the file and before 'Extracting files and setting permissions...' does it give any message with regard to binary?

With regard to CM ROM's did some digging and found out that there are some additional files that get implanted in the system under recovery folder and do not get deleted with factory reset causing an issue with stock Touchwiz roms. I am not sure but formatting system from mount and storages in recovery before installing the ROM could solve this issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] sartana:
I flash from external storage, i have touch CWM 6.0.5.0.

I'm not sure about message, i had to retry, i remember only a message that it was exctracting modem, but after 10 minutes nothing change. Also i'll retry from internal, just to be sure.

Regard CM roms, i think that something remain somewhere, but for sure a format can't solve cause i'm a little bit paranoic :D; i learn in the past whit Huawei phone that the best thing to do when flashing Roms from different source it's to do a sistem format, sometimes also an sd card format.

I try to format system after the first time i get error on boot, don't work...i don't try other format cause i haven't the possibility to replace firmware whit odin , maybe i can try in this days that i'm home.

Suggestion are welcome, in any case.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Put this .zip file on the root of your sdcard and flash it
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Put this .zip file on the root of your sdcard and flash through recovery and it should go through
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Darkman:
Hey Guys,

the NON-HLOS.bin can not be flash over Custom Recovery!! You need to install it over Odin... put the modem.bin to "phone" / "CP" and flash, then reboot und and put the NON-HLOS.bin to "phone" / "CP" and flash and reboot. Or make a tar file to flash booth files over Odin ;) :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
With due respect, I do not agree as there are quite a few devices including S4, that have flashable zips for NON-HLOS.bin and users have confirmed success in flashing over Custom Recovery. In a few threads it is specifically mentioned that for flashing these, you need to put the .zip file in the root of your internal sdcard, maybe this part was missed. Personally I have flashed the zip at least 4 times and did not face any issue, the only thing is that I am unable to verify if these were updated as I was already on this firmware, so if anyone else who is not currently on 4.4.2 can flash and confirm would be great.

Also if you have read zepoy's post, he cannot connect to PC to flash firmware through odin which is why I created the flashable zip.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Ok, made another one with slightly different method. Just follow the below instructions

1. Download the zip from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByY8uLVuRKD2ZHc0NGFsNjhPalk/view?usp=sharing

2. move the zip to the root of your internal SDCard (very important)

3. Reboot to recovery

4. Make a nandroid backup

4. Select the zip from the root of your SDCard and install

5. Select Wicyan ROM and install

5. reboot.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] O-T:
Take a look here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=55753251

to perhaps find interesting info about

modem.bin = GSM modem

NON-HLOS.BIN = LTE modem (4G)

and most important: your version of bootloader, filename

sbl1.mdm

sbl2.mdm

& a couple more *.mdm files.

Baseband =isn't this an eyePhone thing?

... besides the System - About - Baseband tag. Back in the Galaxy S i9000 days this identified current modem, only GSM modem. This is still valid for i9295.

On i9295 this baseband tag DOES NOT include LTE modem version (=NON-HLOS.BIN).

User may has trusted a shady guide and flashed some LTE modem for whatever reason (usually advertised as "WiFi fix") without knowing what bootloader (4.2.x or 4.4.x) the same user has before trying to repair. But how can the user know if the dev. don't tell either the important relationship or a proper way to flash.

KK Bootloader newer than NE5 (this translate to NH2) has trouble downgrading. Knox in bootloader has been spoken of as the reason for this.

Identify your bootloader (ADB/Terminal) :

getprop ro.bootloader

The S4 modem thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=55886211

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39177011

tell as [MENTION=4442332]Darkman[/MENTION] say that only i9500 can update modem using CWM. i9505 is really similar to i9295 (Active) and need Odin for this.

How about skip GSM & LTE modem & bootloader from the equation?

They are at the version from where you said goodbye to Samsung stock ROM.

CyanogenMod don't change any of them, only RIL (the drivers responsible to communicate with radio). And drivers are kept under /system folder, usually wiped when flashing a ROM.

... And last - the location (/sdcard or any folder) of CWM flash able *.zip package usually doesn't matter. Errors usually come from badly written install-script in CWM package.

This was probably too much information in one post to digest. Hope some of it can be of help to understand what tasks to perform before diving into not-stock ROMs and live to tell the tail. [emoji6]

problom with WiFI

hi

the ROM is working great accept the WIFI. i cant get the switch to stay on, its reverting to OFF all the time
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Thanks for the info.

I am not sure if you had a look at the zip file. This is the entire firmware files only from CNE5 including bootloader, GSM & LTE modem (except recovery, system & cache). The revised file flashes the mdm files first and then the modems. This is a thread specific to I9295 and more specific in reply to a request for ugrade to KK as he unable to use odin because of bad USB.

The thread pointed by you for I9500/I9505 does specifically state to flash modem from sdcard as well.

You maybe right in saying that it is not possible to flash modem through cwm for I9295, but then I have flashed this in my device several times and it went through, it could be because I had the same modem version before flashing.

Lastly this has nothing to do with CyanogenMod
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Can you let me know what firmware are you on and the baseband version from about device. Issues for wifi generally do not occur if you have flashed the entire CNE5 firmware prior to flashing the ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] zepoy:
hi jason, tried to do this new method, and used the new zip file you made.. the flashing went well until it hangs up on the last part we're it says installation complete.. waited for about a few minutes, my phone reboots but not in cwm , so i didn't make it to the part that i have to instal Wizcyan Rom.. so i tried again, this time i cleared everything.. still same issue for me, i rebooted my phone back t cwm manually, tried to install Wizcyan, no go... stuck on samsung logo only... by the way, i forgot to mention, since i can't use odin anymore i'm still on 4.2.2.. could that be the issue since you said you are already in 4.4 when you flashed your FW and the wizcyan rom?

now i'm thinking of tryin to flash cm11 roms like pac or any cm based roms which is working for me before then try to use your method again for the firmware then wizcyan rom... we'll be back for feedback later today...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Ok.. if it has gone through installation complete then the firmware would have been updated and fingers crossed including the modem. I flashed one of the CM ROM's to check the issue and found that there seems to be an issue with my updater script due to which the kernal is not getting flashed causing the resulting in bootloop. I will fix this and upload a new ROM package which should be up and the download link updated in the OP in a couple of hours from now.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] zepoy:
Tried installing it again, the installation went thru again but still my phone rebooted automatically.. So again i still can't get to install wizcyan, and after my phone fires up, i went to check if it is really installed.. Still no dice.. Checked my firmware version on settings/about, still the same before i went to install the fw..

Hi there,

I noticed a small bug in the latest version (6.2+update). In the notification/quicksettings. The "Sfinder" and "QuickConnect" cannot be removed. Using edit and deselecting them does nothing.

I tried adjusting the build.prop as suggested on Google for that problem. Also no success.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] AtomicAardvark:
I do not know. I never used it before and only tested it now as it was reported.

I also only cleaned cache and dalvic cache before flashing the patch.

Edit: My wifi is also "sleeping" again. If I do not use it for a short time it still shows that it is connected, but nothing is (down)loading. I have to switch the wifi off and on again or use an app to do it for me.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
This needs to be investigated, seems to be problem with download when screen is locked, sync works fine. could be an issue with deep sleep mode build.prop entry 'pm.sleep_mode=1'. Maybe you can disable it and check.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] AtomicAardvark:
I put it on 0, but no change. Is there any other values I can try? Or, do you perhaps know what the patch changed as it was working without any problem before I flashed the patch.

[Edit] If I turn Zoiper on, the wifi seems to stays connected. Then I do not have to switch wifi off/on to regain internet.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] JASONRR:
Great that it works for you when Zoiper is connected. I can assume from this that the issue is with the download app / service that does not keep wifi on during sleep when there is an ongoing download.

I have found that while I read an article (for example) on Newstand and I go back and I want to enter a new article to read it does not want to load. I can then try anything that needs an internet connection and it would not work (properly). So it is not just per se the device going into sleep mode and then wifi not waking up again. The wifi still shows that it is connected. It happens while I am active on the device. As mentioned, something like Zoiper keeps it connected or awake or "interested".

I did find that telling wifi to forget my DLINK and I then re-connect it does seem to keep connection for some time before becoming "lazy" again. I do not run Zoiper all the time, to save battery.

I had the same on the older ROM's, but all worked well with the version before you gave the patch.

I did record a logcat where this issue happens, but I can not pick anything up from it...well, not that I know much to start with. Let me know if you want to have a look at it.

P.S. I am also trying to see if it is not something with my DLINK connection.

Is there a fix to use the addon pack for the i537 as well?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
The fact that it's meant for the i9295, not the i537 is probably part of the problem, but flash fire is not able to handle most aroma packages AFAIK
