If you do a /system format you shouldn't need to do that. Always better to do a system format when installing a ROM imo to prevent remnants of your old ROM messing with things..

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] O-T:
format.sh script inside CM12 zip will run a ext4/f2fs format automatically of /system every time recovery zip is run.

In addition a backup.sh take care of whatever is listed in /system/addon.d (like gapps apk, cfg, lib) and restore so you don't need to flash gapps after flashed cm. Some of the refined gapps updater-script - like pa - can delete old gapps files and update using /system/addon.d/nn-gapps.sh. It will not delete gapps data.

In short - /system is always automatically formatted when running CM12 updater-script inside cm* zip.

Format cache + data +flash cm = clean.

An updated+MD5 verified gapps can be flashed after cm =clean too.

And not restore TB data belong to cm apps, perhaps selected gapps data can be restored.

Happy new year!!! Just did a clean install and finally made the switch to F2FS with TWRP 2.8.3.0 and somehow, somewhere in the process it fixed my GPS lock, and it was fast at locating me. This might help other Sprint s4 GPS issues, instead of just wiping system like I was...

EDIT: on reboot same story GPS didn't lock onto me. But, it did before I rebooted the phone...odd

Nice build :) But i would suggest not to use it with f2fs since this leads to a significant loss of performance. With f2fs the whole ui becomes noticably slow and sluggish. Better use ext4 instead.

I posted a fix a few pages back that worked for me and I'm sprint too. Try flashing a TW ROM and enter the dialer code ##GPSCLRX#. I was able to restore a backup and GPS worked.

The other thing I would try (do this first) is an app in the playstore called Faster GPS. Open the app and follow the instructions. That may fix your problem without flashing a different ROM.

Same, when using the front facing camera to take a picture while within hangouts, it hangs and can't find the camera (due to the camera still being "in use").

Excellent ROM I must say. I have used the GPE 5.0 for a couple of days, and after flashing your ROM I immediately felt a considerable increase in speed and fluidity. Just a quick question, does disabling HW overlays make an actual difference in fluidity or is it just a placebo effect? The same question goes for forcing 4x MSAA in aplications, thank you for your response, keep up the good work! :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] killall:
Gotta disagree with you. I find performance better with f2fs. As always with flashing roms. Results and problems can be different. Depends on any number of things. Just because something doesn't work for one, it may work for another.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dafabsl:
the thing is that, the camera needs to be locked and unlocked. while taking a picture the camera force closes and leaves the camera locked, so it can't be used again. you have to reboot for it to be usable again, but then again, the camera force closes and the camera is locked again.

so something with the camera implementations is not quite working
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bleez99:
Try this. Do a wipe and clean install with PA Gapps. Use the Stock package. It will uninstall the AOSP camera and install Google camera as a system app. Working great here.

It's very configurable, read the OP on their thread. Stable as can be. He's done a nice job with his gapps packages.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mitsch79:
Maybe, maybe not. F2fs and ext4 installations were both done on a clean and freshly formatted phone. So both tests only differ in the fs. The outcome was clear and significant and other influences are practically not present. With f2fs opening folders vor the APP drawer were extremely laggy and the opening animations were stuttering so to say.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] eddloschi:
When I used f2fs on an early/mid december build I also noticed that it was lagging and stuttering. Later I converted everything back to ext4 to flash the GPE. Went back to this ROM after some time on GPE, still on ext4 and everything was smooth. BUT, when I clean flashed this ROM for the second time after coming from GPE and still using ext4 the ROM was lagging and animations stuttering as you said. It was probably a bad flash, so maybe in your case it was a bad flash too. I don't know if this happens often but I'm beginning to believe so. If this is true, could be device's fault, recovery's fault or ROM's fault...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] killall:
Fair enough, but the point is it isn't happening for everyone using f2fs. I have read every post in both thread's and its not a common complaint. The manner in which your initial post was written seemed to suggest that you had identified that f2fs didn't work and caused problems. That is simply not the case. It may not work for you or others. But for me it works perfectly, maybe a placebo but it seems better than ext4. And from reading the threads, I suspect I'm not the only user who is happy with it. Just sayin...

Been using 12/30 build with default kernel settings the last few days and I like a few others noticed there's a bit of battery drain when streaming over wifi and I also seam to be having show charges at times.

Mine its always present, Call & text no problem and i'm always have strong signal. I am just wondering what is that means:D:D:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ph3n0mII:
I'm not 100% sure, but it would seem that the exclamation mark over the mobile signal strength indicator means there's currently no mobile data connection, but only shows that when wifi is off or not connected. which reminds me of something else I was gonna say a few days ago.

I know there's currently a few APN related problems, but heres what i've noticed:

Every time I flash, whilst the same APN list is shown each time, not always the same/correct mobile data APN will be selected by default.

I am on the Optus network in Australia, and maybe 6 out of 10 times Optus is set as the default active APN, but other times it defaults to Exetel or some other one I've never heard of.

No big deal, I just select the right APN and away I go.

The only other problem I have is that I cant send or recieve MMS at all, they arrive but cant download and fail to send.

Calls/text/data all work perfect.

I checked the APN list and noticed that the MMS APN for my carrier is incorrect, it has extra data that shouldn't be there.

I tried removing the server and port then saved it, it saved properly and survived a reboot, but no go.

I deleted it and all other MMS and other mobile data APN's, and created the proper MMS APN from scratch, it saved fine and survived a reboot, but still no go, cant send or recieve MMS.

Another thing, in regards to the bluetooth sharing crash bug, just thought is share my experience with that.

I never had it with over 60 full-wipe flashes (combined) of the previous builds.

I've flashed the latest build over 20 times now, and on 6 occasions right after first boot, just after entering my wifi password and clicking connect, I noticed the bluetooth symbol on the status bar appear and disappear very quickly.

One of those 6 times it appeared and disappeared twice, 1 time I got the bluetooth sharing crash so I pressed close or whatever and haven't seen it in over 10 flashes since, and one time the icon stayed there for 7 seconds then disappeared.

Is the cause of the problem perhaps that bluetooth is being activated when it shouldn't be? or its supposed to be theres a race condition or something?

Or could it be a somewhat-reversed version of the well-known recent cm kernel's "enabling bluetooth whilst wifi is on crashes the wifi" bug?

Anyway, just some food for thought.

I cant wait to take the next build for some test runs :) :good::cool:

I've only used lollipop on f2fs. Wondering if I should change back to ext4 now... My phone is running well though. The only little lag is the animation when opening app drawer, but that's really nit picking. But if ext4 seems better I'll use it..

Edit: it's alright, I'll just stick with f2fs. That's the only little thing that I could possibly call a lag. And it's like one or two skipped frames in an app drawer animation. You know what they say, "if it ain't broke....." ;)
