For smart ir anymote. The use alternate setting was ticked. By default? I've never browsed too much into settings. Anyway I unticked it and everything works fine. Thank you. So for this ROM. Battery life is generally 1 day - 6 am till 10 pm. WiFi Bluetooth ir work fine. Get lte generally. Around 40 Mbps down and 20 up when I checked this indoors. Havent seen any reboots. SD card is seen fine. Flashed using twrp - wiped cache and data - then flashed on top of Jan 30th. Very happy.

Besides the Wi-Fi issue on the older releases, I also have a severe memory leak issue, only 1-2 apps stay in memory, the rest reloads every time I want to open them, anyone else having this issue? Is this a ROM related issue or an issue with Android Lollipop?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Breach1337:
Yes, same here, though I am not sure it's really a memory leak as I have plenty of free RAM when it's happening. It's a pretty widespread problem, by all accounts it's in AOSP - hopefully fixed in 5.1.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] littlenano:

What updated gapps do you mean? Can you post the link?

In the first post is only an old gapps package. I'm using 20141212 but have also the problem with the camera.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
yes, gapps from 2014 :)

Search for 'PA Gapps xda 5.0.1' on google.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] tzyn:
I already tried current pa gapps package. But in the recovery i got the message, that it can only be installed on a clean system (without previous gapps installed). And i dont want to wipe at the moment, because the system runs very well with the 10/2 release.

Only the camera has some problems. I can only take some pictures and then the shutter doesnt react anymore - only animation but it doesnt take a photo. Thats why i ask what gapps package you exactly mean, because i hoped that it can easily be fixed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Gapps will install on system partition, so the clean needed is only the manual wipe of /system before Rom and Gapps flash.

Data partition will stay untouched, so you do not loose apps...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] littlenano:
Thanks for the answer, but it doesnt work:

check with mount command where is external sd mounted and modifz the path to it with the same commands

btw, it's fixed in latest CM12 nightly
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cawa5:
I had the same problem with external memory, but as it turned out it was a problem with the memory. Buying a new solved all problems. Maybe you have the same thing? Try to insert another.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] littlenano:
How can i know where is it mounted? /mnt/extSdCard/ perhaps?

Flashed the last nightly (20150214) before i asked for help here but got the same problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Yes, I can confirm. If external SD seems to be mounted and after few seconds disappear, it is a problem on SD.

I suggest to remove the SD from the phone, put in the computer, copy all files from it to PC, than do a fresh format from the PC to the native format of SD.

Than place the in the phone and test if it mount and stay stably mounted.

If this give a positive result, put back in the PC and copy back the files. Can happen that some files are corrupted, so during the copy an error message appear...

This is what happened to me too...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kofe:
Try this (only if u are using the kernel that comes with the rom, meaning alucard`s):

go to stweaks -> memory -> oom level screen on and off and set them both to low. Save and exit. It worked pretty good for me :)

Hope it will work for u too.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Can somebody tell me if this ROM supports following GSM/HSPDA/LTE band?

800/900/1800/2100

that one is used in Czech Republic where I live, but vanilla CM12 supports only EURO band (900/1800/2000), which limits my signal reception significantly. There is mention of RIL being updated in this ROM on OP.

Simply put, RR ROM and pure CM12 makes my phone unusable due to very weak option to use it as a daily driver. I would like to know if I shall even try with this one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] popliuc:
The Rom has nothing to do with the radio communication, try to update baseband (it's like Windows on pc it you put win 8 or 7 the drivers for it are the same)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
I believe that you're wrong. I can't update, as I am already on the latest available version. My Modem/NON-HLOS & BT is of XXUGNG8 version, and my CSC is the latest available released for my country. Stock and/or CM11 ROMs works fine and I do have very good signal reception with them. But I am missing the same in CM12. Phone Info tells me that only EURO Band is supported. LTE/3G works fine in the center of our city, where 900/1900 bands are used. While outside of town, only 800/2100 bands are available, and my phone does not see them.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JJGLive:
just flash a never modem using ODIN ex. XXUGNK2 or XXUGNK4. they work great where im from and if they work fine here i am sure they will work great for you
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
thanks, I will, but what frequencies are used in your country? Asking out of curiosity

I'm also little bit confused, because XXUNG8 was recommended for my phone. Also, phone info tells me that only EURO band is supported, which is 900/1800/2000 MHz, while in our country is used the following: 800/900/1800/2100

That is also the reason for my question: What bands are used in country you are living in?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JJGLive:
Well what I can tell you is that vodacom, my provider, according to wikipedia uses 1800 mainly. Other than that I am not exactly sure, as I do not know how to find out what bands we use mainly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
1800 is part of EURO base, so basically if your carrier uses only this frequency, it is understandable that it works for you. You can search wiki. or tell me from what country are you and I will search it. My phone works fine on all bands when running CM11 or stock ROM, but CM12 does not allow me to use other bands. But thanks for the tip anyway, it is worth the try, I have nothing to loose.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JJGLive:
Yes because usually everything works fine for me.

Did some searching and it seems to be 900 1800 and 2100
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
i have no problems getting lte signal anuwhere in czech rep. tested almost everywhere (from aš to frydek)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
I do have LTE and 3G too. What I'm missing is 2G. What modem are you running?

I will definitelly try adviced modem/non-hlos/bt combination, that is for sure. But before I do, I'd like to acwuire as much info as I can
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mico.barac:
Tried wiping system partition and even clean install a couple of times, but WiFi won't turn on the same as camera :(((

It feels embarrassing that beta 10 version has serious bugs like these. It should be more stable.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] rebel1699:
Just out of curiosity, have you tried setting the preferred network to 2g, just to see if you can force it? Also, have you made sure you are using the correct apn?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
I have this 2G bug too, only modem it works with is MK9. Don't ask me why though.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
APN is fine, checked with my operator. 2G can't be forced. If I do, I will be completely out of coverage. Because CM12 do support only EURO base (900/1800/2000), I am permanently out of coverage in sparsely inhabited areas, as those are covered with 800/2100 bands here.

As a result, only centers of bigger cities are fine for me, and only districts covered by either 3G, or LTE (900/1800 MHz).

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

Are you saying that with MK9, you do have complete coverage for 2G/3G/LTE with it? What bands are used in your country?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
Yes, I'm saying that. I'm in Germany, dunno what bands...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jamesmcuk:
This may help in establishing what bands are where

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Germany is using the same bands like Czech Republic do...

800/900/1800/2100

Is than KNOX compatible modem? If it does work for you, should work for me too. Thanks! Finally something I can stick with. Will check the modem and I will report back (have to wait till tomorrow, as I'm not running Windows anywhere, and Heimdall was said to fail in Knox enabled Samsungs....).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ph3n0mII:
I too have some different 2G problems, and I am in Australia.

I get great signal and call quality on 2G with all of the latest 12 modems, on our 3 main providers (Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone), but I get no data connection at all on 2G.

They all have multiple apn's for residential/business and pre-paid/post-paid but no data on 2G with any of them no matter what on Lollipop.

3G, H, H+ and 4G have near identical performance and signal strength regardless of modem.

I don't really care as I have no use for data on 2G, as i haven't been able to find anywhere that doesn't have good 3g or 4g coverage anyway, but I just thought i'd mention my experiences while its being discussed.

FWIW, its the same deal on official CM12 and GPE 5.0.1, so im going to take a rough guess and say its probably because there are no LP modems for i9505 yet.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
So, I have borrowed Win8.1 powered laptop from my father (had to take my car on ride to get it), and I have flashed XXUGMK9 modem. no network at all (probably because it is not KNOX compatible modem).

Then I have flashed BT, modem and non-hlos XXUGNK4, and again - 3G and LTE works on bands 900/1800MHz, but no 2G/3G on 800/2100MHz.

I am really running out of ideas. Phone works fine on stock 4.4.2 Black edition firmware, with all bands available and working. I would be grateful for any ideas leading to solution.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] franzyroy:
Update of my theme!

Changes (in the latest)

:

Thirteenth release (20150215) - Link AndroidFilesSharing

Improved the displaying in Google Quick Search Box app

Added Calculator app

Come back to the old settings in MMS app (I hope it'll fix the problems of displaying, I don't see them, an issue of my device or my DualBoot)

Always in the fifth post.

I'm running Beta 10.

Had to do a clean install as my Google stopped syncing.

Now google is good, but wifi has issues. When I leave the house, my phone turns off wifi and forgets my home network.

Anyone else having this issue?

Also, have to turn wifi on a few times until it starts working again
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gkai:
Yes, this is my main issue: it does not always reconnect to known Wi-Fi networks, either needing to manually connect, sometime forgetting the network completely and having to reenter password...

Bluetooth reconnect much better though since last update...But it still stutters a lot...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] finneginsfast:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] The assasin:
Yeah sync tile is great in stat bar. Number 1 battery drainer, better to have that included for easy turn off.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] penguinjoe:
Couple issues with latest build as of this post:

Wifi really hates to work with the latest builds.

* Wifi comes and goes as the wind blows. Rarely works straight up connecting from the notification drawer. Most often have to go into wifi settings, choose the connection and connect manually. Once it forgot my passwd and had to re-enter.

* If wifi and mobile data are enabled, wifi will shut off and let mobile data take over. Turn off mobile data, wifi comes back on. this logic should be opposite to avoid unnecessary network charges. When WIFI available it should always have priority over mobile data.

* Setting up tiles in the notification drawer does not work right. Add 9 tiles, only 7 show. Add 10 tiles only 7 show. Remving tiles is fine, but once removed they stay gone.

* Haven't had a chance to check out bluetooth yet.

I think this rom has a long way to go before it is stable.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] keymanhattan:
Most of the wifi and bt issues are fixed in the last cm nightlys. I think it's better to wait next release of this rom with un updated base.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
xxugnj8 modem - with the non-hlos thing. really i never had such problem you describe - try updating bootloader and try newer modem
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Thanks, but I already was on that modem. I am always flashing combined zips (modem.bin/non-hlos.bin) as well as related BT. I'm fine now, as I work in the city centre and there is strong LTE and 3G coverage on 900/1800MHz bands.What does not work is 2G/3G on 800/2100MHz. that is something CM12 does not understand. again - everything works on stock ROM from Samsung, or on all CM11 releases, built before 26-Dec-2014. Later builds shows the same symtoms. I can only speculate that it is RIL related, as I saw mention somewhere that CM started utilizing T-Mobile's RIL libraries (dunno if that is true).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
which city? maybe I can test.

EDIT: I see you from Prague - at least for me no problem to get 2G in Prague - tested like 2 weeks ago (previous build)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Well, I am in Prague. I do have full 3G/LTE in the center of the city, but no 2G. I saw a lot of complains, completely identical to my cause, but with different phone models, all of which running CM12.

Seems like it does have something to with RIL, but that is not confirmed. I have tried all adviced combination of modems/non-hlos/bt, various ROMs, and only ROMs it works with is CM11 (releases before 26.12.2014), and stock firmware. So, there must be something I am missing, but I really don't know what it is. If I'll type*#*#4636#*#* in dialer, I can see that my phone is allowed to use only EURO base (900MHz/1800MHz/2000MHz) bands, nothing else. I need to be allowed to use czech local baseband, which is 800MHz/900MHz/1800MHz/2100MHz. That baseband is out of my reach. Can you please check what baseband are you allowed to use? I would like to know what are all possible differences between my own and your phone, because there must be something I am not aware of.

I am currently running XXUGNK4 modem. Best modem so far, as it does not switch from LTE to 3G too often, and connection, once estabilished, is rock solid, be it be for 3G or LTE. But still, no 2G.

Basically it seems that I am able to use only half of the baseband used here.

Not SIM related. I have changed the SIM for brand new, and it behaves the same. Not HW related, otherwise CM11 and stock ROM would not connect flawlessly. It is related to CM12 and some later commits in CM11, but I think that I can assume that it is AOSP originated, as SlimLP and vanilla AOSP ROM behaves the same.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] zapatt:
Hi man ,

i'm using I9505XXUGNK4 , i 'm in france .

Be sure to disable roaming to get sure you are connecting on your provider antenna with 4G activated.

In France with the romanig enabled, i sommetimes get connecting to another provider antenna , wich cannot provide me 4G .

Have a goode day .
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
can you please share screenshot of where did you get the allowed frequencies in the *#*#4636#*#* dialog? I can only see preferred connection type (mine set to LTE/GSM)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
I can, but I believe that it is not necessary.

Phone Info -> Menu (three dots on top right corner) -> Select radio band

When you turn off the radio, the baseband list will show you all allowed bands available to your phone. But our local one is not within there, not to speak about the fact that it won't allow me to change to anything else (due to CSC probably, but my CSC is correct for Czech Republic. I have tried generic CSC for EU to no avail, tho).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
Got the same screen - did you try the button "Automatic"? as e.g. right now I am running on EDGE ... and the only problem I found is sometimes longer switching between the networks when there is a lack of signal stregth of any of the networks.

When switched to 2G only I am still running fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
That does not prove anything, but in city centre, when I switch to 2G, I will be connected (as it is broadcasted on 900MHz too I believe), but with no data (exclamation mark at the signal icon) only SMS or calls works. Outside of city centre, I won't connect at all. I have to use LTE or 3G, but problem is that there is no absolute coverage on that frequencies, and for example place where do I live is covered only by 800MHz and 2100MHz....so completely out of my reach now. I have tried Automatic, sure. Actually I am using it right now, to no differenece.

That is the reason why I asked you what does the menu show you, if it is the same band, or not. I really appreciate that you are trying to help. Thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
Again: the menu shows the same for me (but it is clickable - and I never clicked neither option)

Just tried switching to only 2G mode - and after few seconds with exclamation mark I have regular 2G data signal - location Jicin, carrier O2 - can try at home with my gf's T-Mobile SIM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] LaCruz:
Same here. I completly wipe an install rom again. Camera working fine four days, todays same connecting issue again. Alos WiFI loosing passwords.

:(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
That is it. O2 is broadcasting it's voice/sms 2G on 900MHz as well....no data, tho. The same for Vodafone. So it seems that you are in the same situation. But because O2 does have better coverage, you do not feel the downsides of it. I think that O2 does rely on 1800MHz more then Vodafone, as Vodafone is using old former NMT BTS's (800MHz), bought out from O2 and T-Mobile. Damnit....

what GApps are you using, folks? Those are symptoms of old GApps package from end of December 2014. If you do really use such old GApps, please download latest PA GApps.

Then:

1) format /system

2) flash Antares/CM12/AOSP ROM of your selection

3) flash new GApps

4) (optional) flash your desired kernel

5) reboot

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] KusakaKyo:
I'll take this in mind, but still, what if it doesn't show me 4G, maybe im using a wrong modem, used to happpen to me alot back when i had an SGS I9000 with 3G network, now im pretty unsure to which modem use for LTE Telcel Mexico.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NZgeek:
It's not due to CSC. Only TouchWiz ROMs look at the CSC package, and the package generally only includes carrier branding and preloaded apps. I'm not sure what bits it includes that might affect the baseband.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Thanks for clarification. I'm still not clear what else is wrong then. I got outstanding signal reception for 3G/LTE in the city, but I am unable to use 2G. If I'll switch to 2G in the city centre, I do have full signal without data connection. But on perioheral district, I have no 2G at all, and 3G/LTE is weak at best. I have been able to find out that it is due to frequencies used for those bands, as both 3G/LTE in the city centre are carried over 900/1800 bands, while the same on peripheral districts are covered with 800/2100 MHz. The question is, what else can I try. There is no issue using stock ROM or CM11 (builds released before 26th of December 2014).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Schikkadellic:
Anyone figured out whats the extSdcard issue?

I was coppying files from my internal to my external sd (whatsapp pics and other stuff).

After a few files card gets unmounted and mounted again with 0,00 b space.

I rebooted in recovery, my sdcard shows perfect, all giles are there, flashed another cm12 based rom, card is fine...but if i flash antares rom( clean flash ) or restore a backup card gets again mounted with no space files, only one android folder.

Is there a file in the latest official cm12 nightly which i can copy paste to antares rom? Maybe permissions file in etc folder?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
What is the filesystem on that card? If it is extFat, then it suggests that Alucard kernel may use bad kernel module for exfat. Can you test this theory with Antares ROM and different kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Schikkadellic:
Which kernel can i flash?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Virnik0:
Try KToonez...does not matter as long as it will be different then built-in kernel flashed along with the rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Schikkadellic:
Ok, i report in a few minutes.

I don't know the filesystem, but exfat could be right.

Edit:

Yep its kernel related. All fine after flashing KToonez kernel. Big Thank to Virnik.
