Only if xposed finds a way to run with ART runtime mode. Last I heard they had no public lollipop app yet, not looked in a few weeks. Remember xposed didn't work on KitKat if you changed the runtime mode from DALVIK to ART (actually if you tried to xposed would force it back to DALVIK), well now in Lollipop its just ART.

The russian modem brought back the miscallenous battery drain for me. reverted back to the old one
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:
Which one does not have Misc draining?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] diegolopez10:
I read in some other post and maybe other thread, that you just had to give it a few charging cycles to gather stats and stuff...

Maybe try that, keep the Russian modem for a few days and charging cycles, and see if the Misc Battery disappears from your stats...

just a thought...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:
Thank you for your suggestion, but I use the same modem (NF6) since I flashed this ROM (december) and there is no change.

Also tried to calibrate my battery, etc...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] diegolopez10:
K, weird, I've never changed my modem (I'm on NA2), and have had the Misc Drain issue, but then, after a few cycles... it goes away on it's own...

Sorry mate, out of ideas...

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] CN@:
Yes.

Only when you expand each notification that can be expanded, you see no lag.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] gdskang:
recents menu lag.

The recents menu lag is back after i flashed the 16th build.

It was gone in the 28th jan build. But the Bluetooth works flawlessly and call quality has improved alot. Cheers man !!

Edit- the call quality worsened after flashing the Russian modem linked some posts back. Can I get the latest modem from any Indian firmware ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] veer987:

Sorry for this.. Don't know how to delete the post :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjoni:
It really depends on the coverage of the area, i am using i9500UBUGNJ1 and its fine here. If you don't have good coverage on your area, you will still have misc battery drain.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:
Latest modem for my country is I9500JKUGNJ1, should I flash it? Will it improve battery drain & call quality?

Do you have download link?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjoni:
I don't have a download link. There are many modems mentioned in this thread. Why don't you try them and see it for yourself. If you don't test, you will never know.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LironImaN:

I hear you bro!

I see a new build out there, test or "stable"?

I have dirty flashed the last 3 or 4 builds and now looking for a clean install, but, waiting for the right build hehe.

Thanks for all your hard work and commitment to our device
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] frapeti:
I'm building a new milestone release (fixed DRM) now, will upload today soon, none of my builds are a "stable" release cause we still have bugs, it's pretty stable for common usage by the way but it's still in beta stage for these reasons
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] diegolopez10:
Totally understand. Your builds are the most stable for my use hehe, so, quite happy with how things work. No FC's at all, acceptable battery life, no sudden unexpected drains, Bluetooth calls work with acceptable quality, sufficiently smooth. No complaints at all.

Thanks for letting me know about the milestone release, will wait for that one and then clean flash
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] GadgetAvi:
Hello, I see that most of the bugs are fixed, the question is how stable is that rom? and when it's fixes will be available in the official CM12 (fi ever)?

I'm on TW based KK and stability is important to me, so except google now (that I don't use anyway) and the launcher (I use NOVA), are there any other problems?

Thanks. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] frapeti:
Make a twrp backup and follow op instructions, if you think it's not stable restore your backup [emoji6]
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tembares:
To all who ask if this ROM is stable or not.

Do a nandroid backup, install this ROM, ise it for a while and see it yourself. What is stable for me (functionalities I use are working good) doesn't have to be stable for you.

Moderator, please clean up the mess!

(@frapeti: great minds thinks alike. When I posted mine, I saw yours :))
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] GadgetAvi:
OK, thank you, I always make full Nand backups, so I'll try it for a while :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] frapeti:
that's the default rom's behaviour

yes, cause we are using the camera interface now cause a cm commit merged, I could just revert that and apply mine or implement a custom TorchService via IPC which I'm not doing yet lol
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tembares:
If something is default then there must be an option to change it, else it is not default but standard :)

Is there a way to switch discoverable off?

@frapeti

When i connection drops with wi-fi (modem restarts or getting out of wifi range), wifi cannot auto reconnect most time. It's stuck reconnecting or shows "saved". Whenever i disable wifi and re enable it, it connects without problem.

And with latest build, is the battery consumption is higher? My screen time getting lower and lower :(

Thank you again so much!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tembares:
Guys, sorry. Of the record message.

When you open your phone dailer, settings, call settings then there is an option to set 'IP call settings'.

What is this? I googled but without success.

What I want to achieve is that with a prefix I can choose to call via VoIP account and without using my Sim card.

Thank you in advance for your input.

[MENTION=1807095]MemAllocatoR[/MENTION] , the BT call is working now, but there is minor distortion/noise. This was a much needed fix. It was only because of your efforts that this issue has been fixed. Hats of to your determination in solving this issue.

I have one request, please fix the in call echo in CM12. This is a long standing issue and I believe you can fix it if this issue interests you.

[MENTION=4559222]frapeti[/MENTION] much thanks to you as well. You just keep on fixing issues as you find them. Also you are open to suggestions from devs like MemAllocatoR. You are generous enough to let others kang your code.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] dgershko:
How is the call sound quality on this? I switched to the non-cm lollipop because of this, did it get fixed yet? Im talking about the echo other people hear when talking with me when im on cm....
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] maltinbay:
It's getting better, with the latest Russian modem, it's become less annoying.

There is still issues but not too switch to touchwiz :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] dgershko:
What's the difference between this cm12 and the other ones?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] maltinbay:
For users, frapeti's cm and alberto's cm is very similar, in the developer side frapeti is the first developer for our device and new features comes from him.

Other cm12s (resurrection, euphoria) have more customization options, but they uses frapeti or alberto builds, and they are a little more unstable.

In fact all of them are very similar :)

@frapeti

Battery drain is higher in latest builds.

Is it Rom related, or new Russian modem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tanqueta207:
haha.... prism barebone rom is touchwiz 5.0.1 and work excelent... And with google launcher is a little bit more pure android experience... It's seems that our i9500 is far from get a real bug free cm12. I'm a cm fanatic but with this phone is just not good enough.

Official lollipop is just fine for me now, and prism rom is very customizable for now. Battery life 23hr with 2.1 hr screen time... good, isn't it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] melekbarca:
no it is not good in kitkat i get 3 to 3.5 hours sot with heavy use 3g+gaming and with moderate use 4 to 4.5 hours sot
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tanqueta207:
You misunderstood me... I got 23hr total time with 2.1hr screen on time included in that 23 hr. I never use my phone with the screen on full time... for that I get a couple of pcs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Mufasa284:
Tested 2/9 build, during a call, voice still disappears and reappears randomly. I noticed that if i hang up when the voice is off, between the time i tap the hang-up button and the time it actually hangs up, the voice came back on. Very weird. Does anyone else experience this??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Iam5alwa:

bluetooth issue update

ok guys so here are my findings so far:

i did a thorough bluetooth call testing and i was very suprised to find out that those that are using trebuchet launcher experienced sound dissappearing because of permmition issues, when i swtiched to google launcher, sound didnt dissappear even once!!

about the robotic sound if some of you have had i didnt encounter that issue either ;) .

the distortion needs to be fixed as i saw what was the cause of it while debugging...turns out when conneced to bluetooth call, the sample rate goes down 8k which im not sure thats what we want... [MENTION=4559222]frapeti[/MENTION] correct me if im wrong...

there some work to be done in order to solve the tiny distortion we have. what i need from you guys is to try using google launcher and not trebuchet as its causing problems. please test and report...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] saurabhp75:

Most of the RIL problems have been fixed too. I'm assuming you don't know about albertos work because you didn't mention him in Credits :)

Btw Thanks for the Rom! :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SeiferTV:
I don't think alberto's 4.4.4 sources have much to do with the 5.0 sources. I could be wrong, but common sense tells me that being a different os alltogether, sources should be different as well
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
Not really. When we moved from jellybean to Kitkat the sources didn't change much at all. Besides, referring to code that worked won't hurt :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SeiferTV:
Duh, because that was an incremental upgrade.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
Then what is a "major" upgrade to you? The way the OS looks? The new animations? The last time I checked going from 4.3 to 4.4 is as small of an upgrade as going from 4.4.4 to 5 in terms of core sources.

The fact that the operating system has to talk to the hardware in the exact same way should have been a "duh" moment for you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] rivanleite:
I think RIL is hardware related and not change so much, but, I'm not developer and can be wrong...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] SeiferTV:
You could compare the changelogs and see if it's a major upgrade or not. I am not getting into a pissing match with you over something that the developer will confirm on his own. Still, if you think nothing really changed behind the scenes, I don't really know what to tell you
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
The changelogs show bug-fixes and changes to Cyanogenmod (the layer over aosp) and sometimes bug fixes to the hardware code. Why do you think so many flavours of cm11 were possible for the i9500? Some of them look and functions very different to cm11 but they share the same bugs relating to hardware. What is your point? I don't see why you are getting so aggressive.

If you have been following the Rom development over the past year and a half like me, you'll realise that the hardware code is separate from the cyanogenmod code and is mostly the same spare a few updates provided by Samsung and bug fixes by the devs. You are confusing aosp code with the Samsung sources for i9500.

You seem to be blind to the fact that android 5 even runs on i9500. How do you think this possible? This Rom is running on Kitkat sources provided by Samsung's open source center.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] mazbot:
Hope I can end this discussion. Here is the CM 12.0 changelog from frapeti: https://github.com/frapeti/android_device_samsung_i9500/commits/cm-12.0

Every commit before 15/Nov was done by Ethan, Alberto, NBruderman and many other contributors. There is no exclusively source for Lollipop yet, Samsung didn't release nothing new. So, about "94%" of CM12 (in a ugly way) is the same as CM11.

Edit: better place to look https://github.com/frapeti/android_device_samsung_i9500/graphs/contributors

I'm not depreciating Frapeti work in any way, it's quite the opposite actually. I'm just saying that even Alberto's work on CM11 will help turn CM12 stabler.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] rivanleite:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] akss009:
Waiting for RIL to be working, then will switch over to this ROM :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] frapeti:
I thought it was clear that my changes are (of course) over all commits that comes from CM11, mainly by Alberto and Ethan, as they worked with CyanogenMod officially I thought adding CyanogenMod team credits was enough but if you prefer I will add their names in credits, no issues about that, there is more people involved in our device and exynos platform also, check cm gerrit and find out...

device tree is not the only repo involved, check exynos ones which come from aosp, exynos from cyanogenmod ones, samsung hardware from cm too, ported commits from cm11 to cm12 in frameworks/native & frameworks/av, etc, etc
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Sitwano:
No problem, I'm not criticizing you. Just wanted to point out that the unofficial cm11 gearcm rom by [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] has way more fixes as compared to the official cm11 rom, that's why I gave u link to that Rom :)
