I know ... But i post it here cause the odin doesn't work with this rom only .... So i think the problem in the rom not the odin ....

So help me guys if any Buddy facing this problem in this rom :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] :
Noob question...Any suggestions? This ROM or Optimized CyanogenMod 12.1 for 5.1.x?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:
Custom ROMs like CM you have to flash through custom recovery.

Odin is only for stock ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] amer_zx:
So ..if i want to flash a bootloader and i cant flash it through custom recovery it must through odin.... what should I do ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
This:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] maltinbay:
There isnt so many differences between them.

Try both and choose. I personally prefer this Rom.

anyone can test it?

and battery drain so hard now for me and camera crash often((

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Abaddon:
Yes as long as it's a custom recovery (CWM, PHILZ OR TWRP)

When I lock the phone, it disconnects from WiFi. This has been around for a while. What could be the problem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] aakashdahake:
Go to

Wifi > Advance Settings

Check the option "Keep wifi On during sleep"
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
Thanks! The thing is, it's enabled already.

This occurs especially when I'm sharing my internet from Macbook to WiFi, (e.g when I'm at work), but not when I'm on a modem . When I unlock the phone it connects, but in the background when it's locked it's always disconnected.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] sagarwadhwa1:
I've faced this problem with all 5.1.x builds on our beloved i9500.

It might be due to the fact how google fixed the wifi bug on lollipop (pure speculation).

Also, I sometimes face the same problem on my Nexus 9 tablet, that's why I said it might be due to what google did (the nexus 9 is on stock rom without root).
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] dunstan92:
How's the battery life you all on the latest build? Mine doesn't really go into deep sleep as well as Alberto's build. Am only getting 6 hours out of it while on WiFi. Am on HOA7 modem though
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Yaj00j:
No visualiser in music player or lockscreen.. Anyone else facing this?

Other bug is audiofx fc.

Rom is pretty stable apart from those so far.

Glad to hear I'm not alone :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Yaj00j:
Found another bug:

Some videos don't show thumbnail in gallery and cause gallery fc when you try to open them with default video player.

Anyone else has this or is it just me?

Sent from my GT-I9500
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] zorlak:
My bug report on the latest build (clean install):

- AudioFX FC

- Gallery FC when reading videos

- Skype calls don't work: the person I'm calling only hears strange noises (critical for me so I'll have to downgrade)

- Extreme heat and battery drain during Google Hangouts calls.

- Sometimes SIM not recognized after reboot (needs another reboot)

- Weird percentage sign sometimes during battery charge that forces to reboot

Overall the ROM is fast, camera is fast, battery life is good but too many critical bugs to be used on a daily basis. Skype is critical for me...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] prajwalnr:
I have pretty good battery life with the latest build..

With xposed for lollipop and using Amplify module to limit wake locks, i get 3+ hours of SOT which gets me through the day. Excellent battery and performance.!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
Could you please tell a bit more about Amplify? Never heard of it. I'm using greenify with xposed. Does amplify have additional effect on kernel wakelock (such as l2_hsic ) ?

Also, Is it this app ? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryansteckler.nlpunbounce&hl=en

And if you've used both, what are pros and cons?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] maltinbay:

It's seems the microphone only produces weird noises. I can hear people I'm calling but they can't hear me.

Is a clean install necessary when updating to latest build?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] CN@:
No,you can dirty flash the ROM.

But it is recommended to do a clean one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
Sometimes, especially when screen is locked, after a notification comes screen becomes bright and grainy green, then a total horizontal bright line swipes down from screen, after a couple of seconds it becomes normal. This became with the last build.

Totally weird bug O.o What can be the issue ?

Thanks in advance,
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] priyankmody:
This happened to me a couple of times while watching a video on the YouTube app. I guess it's video rendering related or to v4a because my audio gets distorted too, but rarely.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
I also have V4A, but it's not enabled for speakers, and I was not watching a YT video, it was just lying there.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] prajwalnr:
Even i faced the same..

But i don't have v4a installed..!

Neither i use youtube to watch videos..

When ever it happens i just lock the screen and unlock it and it's back normal again...

It happened around 8 to 10 times since last install for me...

Also happened in few earlier builds too...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] zorlak:
Is it possible to do something for the microphone not working in Skype?

I guess this is really preventing a lot of people to use this ROM...

[MENTION=1807095]MemAllocatoR[/MENTION] the ringing volume is too low. Can you please increase it a little bit in the next update?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] MemAllocatoR:
Fixed already, next build will also have almost fully working es325 voice processing enabled!!! It's working here, what you have to do is to activate google voice recognition because right now the implementation depends on it. Also test now Bluetooth as well because I revered some of audio hal code that caused issues with audio routing and thus the Skype issue.

I will raise also ringing volume as some of you wanted.

About ir remote I'm still trying to fix.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:
Also notifications and system sound is too low, is it fixed already in next build?

What about AudioFX FC and sound distortion?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] mctifa1:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] zorlak:
[MENTION=1807095]MemAllocatoR[/MENTION] wonderful, mate. Could you explain how to activate Google Voice Recognition? I'm not quite sure how to do this. Thank you.

My phone can almost boil water [emoji14]
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] gerz2405:
it's impossible to reach that temp, your phone will shutdown immediately long before it reach 91 degree.

the phone does get overheat after around 3 minutes heavy usage (e.g. play heavy game)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] maltinbay:
Sound level sometimes getting low randomly when playing music or video. Both screen is on or off.

It's like there is a notification, and reduce sound level because play notification alert. But no notification.

I have viper4android installed. Don't know it is viper related. But previous builds don't have this bug with same viper app and driver.

Anyone experience this bug too?

Thanks [MENTION=1807095]MemAllocatoR[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SoulSmasher:
When I have V4A, for notification, especially when I'm listening to the music, it decreases the volume of the music and plays the notification sound, then increases back, unlike pausing it. It's most likely v4a related I can say.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjoni:
My phone heats too much by just using WIFI and no games...

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjoni:
Has this been going all the time or just after the big update?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] priyankmody:
If you're using Google photos auto backup, there's a possibility that it's the cause. Especially near the front camera.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] MemAllocatoR:
so hopefully in next build also video software decoders rendering is fixed...i added some gerrit commits that should solve it, also video thumbnails not showing should be fixed. building now the rom and if all goes well i will update you guys and asap i will upload the rom. please be patient guys as im still in exams time so updates are coming slow. frapeti and i are trying to make this rom as good and stable/bugfree as possible.

When does your phone heat up ? I found my phone heat up when using 3g, not when playing games. So I think it's something wrong with the RIL maybe ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LeoYL:
I seldom use 3G so I don't know if heat issue is due to 3G mobile data. Besides, my phone becomes a little bit hot after I power it on, and it is very hot when I am performing backup/restore job in TWRP and app optimization stage after I flashed updates.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjoni:
My phone doesn't heat up in standby mode even when 3g is on. It heats up when i am browsing internet with wifi. if my cache wipes for some reason and upgrading text shows up, i am f*cked. my phone burns.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] codybank_789:
My phone doesn't heat up in standby, it only heats up when I use 3g like watching twitch or youtube. CPU cores stay at low frequency like 250 or 600 but the phone is very hot so.

Hello,

I purchased new Galaxy S4 just last weekend,

went through the all threads and almost read all OP and Last few pages of most of the ROM out here at XDA for i9500.

still not sure and totally confused about working ROM that i should go for.

Can anyone please suggest ?

and yes, please please provide the link for first time rooting and flashing CWM or TWRP for flashing ROM.

Thank you,

Yogesh Dama
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] randika171:
This Rom is really good. For everyday usage it's stable and efficient. But has some bugs though. BTW you need to tell us what android version you have kitkat or lollipop to provide with rooting links.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] afaquekhaja:
There are many roms that are working but if you want something totally stable then go for stock based ones and not cm based. Although cm based are quite stable now but there are still few small bugs. Rooting method depends on the Android version you are currently on.
