[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madaurensis:
Since his second S4 GPE 5.0 release, [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] has removed the SuperSU download link from the opening post.

Also, in the Installation instructions it is not mentioned anymore that SuperSU has to be flashed.

Does this mean that flashing SuperSU after flashing ROM is now unnecessary?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munichsfinest:
If you read the changelog, you will find out that it's integrated already :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madaurensis:
It is compatible with GT-I9505 (International version), but if you want random reboots to be fixed, you'll have to wait for GPE 5.0-compatible custom kernels.

They're being tested right now, and will also be optimized as soon as the original source code is released by Samsung.

I thought that the 5.0 features in the OP included some kind of changelog, that is why I let it slip! ;)

Workaround for logcat

Logcat will work if you start adb shell and then

su
setenforce permissive

(Probably a SELinux problem? "dmesg | grep log" will show "init: cannot execve('/system/bin/logd'): Permission denied" every five seconds)

Anyway, I hope it gets fixed, but this is a temporary workaround.

Hey, hello everybody!

I am just new here and I have just finished installing my GPE room and it's awesome, it's way way better than the original Samsung TW version, this is my first time installing a custom room and I have some questions.

1) some games simply don't open, like 99 bricks and crossy road, but others have opened just fine, like beach buggy and radiant defense, working 100%. when I have installed my rom I did a full wipe, and used the googy kernel, doing everything exactly the tutorial, anyone know how to resolve this?

2) when I receive a message from what's app (just what's app) and it appears on the screen, I can't click on it and open the application, I can just swipe, but if I swipe the notification is gone, and maybe I will forget to answer later, so I am having to wait until dissappear, and it's very annoying, this problem is from the rom or from the what's app? In the original TW was working perfect.

3) if some day I will have to go back to TW (I hope not), I just have to do a full wipe and flash the original rom back?

Thanks and sorry for my English, I am from Brazil and still learning hahaha

Hey Dan, I have a rooted S4 (AT&T sgh-i337) and I just learned that I need to use safestrap as my custom recovery because my bootloader is locked... Will this ROM work with safestrap?

newcomer here

Hello guys!

Recently bought an s4 from second hand market and willing to kill my 3 months warranty for a pure android experience :D

Im not new to flashing, but have questions.

-Which recovery is recommended for this rom? TWRP (I used this on my ace3)?

-What kind of kernel does this ROM come with? Anything other recommended with it?

Im into longer battery life, underclock+undervolt and stability.

Update: as i see, developers recommend TWRP, found the newest version, but could be able download only in *.img file format, not in *.tar.md5. Are files with .img extension flashable via odin?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prosis:
I have a huge bug that keeps me from using this ROM. I'd love for it to be sorted out so I can install it again.

No matter what type of wiping I use or what kernel I install, after a fresh install, everything runs smoothly until the screen shuts off after being idle for 10 minutes. Then I wake it up and instead of showing me the lock screen it tries to show the home screen, then the screen goes blank, then goes black, shows the home screen, goes blank, goes black and so on until I reboot it. Once it's rebooted, on the lock screen I get a UI System has crashed message and the loop starts again but this time the "UI System has crashed" message appears. The phone is then ususable because I can't get further than that.

Somebody suggested I do adb logcat -d > log.1.txt with ADB so I can report the bug properly but that doesn't work either:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

logcat read failure: No such file or directory

What can I do? I'd really love to get this ROM.

Thanks :)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cantenna:
That would be awesome if it did by I highly doubt it. Aren't there modules though that can be loaded from SD to add support even if kernel does not?

Also, I remember reading somewhere, KitKat broke cifs support, did you ever have it working on KitKat or lollipop on any other ROMs?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ru5k:
No I never had it working but I reached out to the dev of my current ROM quite some while ago and asked him about cifs support.

He told me its possible in principle but said he would need to know which kernel flags to enable to make a certain app able to mount nfs shares.

Source: see link in picture

Sadly I never got around to provide that info and I also was hoping to get that cifs support at a global level by simply issuing the respective mount command in a shell.

Installing with I545VRUAME7 baseband?

I did a search for "ME7" and "I545VRUAME7 " in this thread, but came up empty, so apparently no one has asked yet (??): is it possible to install this ROM once the baseband has been updated to the ME7 update? I ask because I've read that there's currently no known way to unlock the bootloader for the ME7 baseband firmware, and as far as I can tell CWM Recovery and TWRP don't work with a locked bootloader. Various sites recommend using Safestrap as a workaround for a locked bootloader, but there are some comments in the thread that say this ROM is incompatible with Safestrap.

I asked this question (with a little more detail and some links) on the Android Stack Exchange site, but got no response (so far). Since this is my first post, I can't link to it, but here's the tail of the URL (prepend the SE site URL to get the full link): q/105483/42062

EDIT: If Heimdall works for bypassing the locked bootloader and installing this ROM, is there a Heimdall package for the ROM somewhere, or would I need to handle the partitioning, etc myself?

EDIT 2: Also, I thought I had GT-i9505, but in fact I have SCH-i545 (a Verizon model). Is this ROM even compatible with the SCH-i545? (This post, and the ones following, seem to imply that it's fine: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=53194101&highlight=sch-i545#post53194101)
