I tried it and test screen cast first, but failed.

No device found!!!

Is it implement yet?

On official CM11 works for me only with M6.

Maybe it works here too, but not for me...

Hope somebody could confirm!!!

So,

Flashed over the BNB3 baseband/CM11 M12 last evening, with F4k kernel pre3 and until now all is just fine, calls, SMS, WiFi, 4G and so on except few things:

Titanium Backup (Pro) don't work to freeze, restore, backup anything. - fixed after flashed update SU.

Alarm icon remain in status bar even after I choose to not appear.

Sir,

Please don't answer if you don't know the right answer. Its better for all.

Did a clean installation of the latest build, and everything fine until I reboot my device. The wifi password is lost, I have to re-enter it again. Anyway to fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
So far we've got:

No sound on incoming calls (not 100% reproductible, and pretty random, from my experience)

Wifi passwords lost on reboot (didn't have this issue with the previous builds. Now I have it, just like everyone else here.)

Chrome FC

Carrier Settings FC

Location ON icon in status bar, though the actual Location feature is disabled in settings (seems like it gets stuck in there for some reason).

Weather information on the status bar doesn't change according to the settings in CLock widget until the next reboot of the device. For example, switching from Fahrenheit to Celsius, will still show the temperature in Fahrenheit (which is the default) until the next reboot.

Message templates can't be imported. When going to a new message -> Import Template -> Message Template, the actual Message Template section is not clickable, nor is it displaying any actual templates.

Gesture Typing (aka Swype) doesn't work with the built-in AOSP keyboard, though the feature is activated in settings. Nothing happens when you try to swipe your finger across the keyboard to create a certain word. The letters are just randomly selected. A valid workaround is to download the Google Keyboard from the Play Store.

All these were in the previous builds (since 3/12). Just installed the latest build. Will see which of these bugs still occur.

Why doesn't anyone make a list of these things on the first post so that the dev, whoever it is, can have everything in one place?

Nobody else has call forwarding notification and message template not working?? Even with a clean install and no gapps I have these bugs.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
How do you reproduce those? What happens exactly? I'm not quite sure I understood what are the issues. And "not working" can have so many ways of occurring that it can't really be considered a valid bug report.

If I would tell you that your phone doesn't work, would that be enough for you to understand what happened and how exactly doesn't it work? If not, then please, consider adding more details to your reports. Trust me, it helps a lot.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolo143:
Just discovered the carrier settings force close you mentioned, didn't know, I don't care so much because I never use them, but the wifi bug is annoying as hell. Have to type the password every single time I reboot my device, and I do that a lot.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
Yeah, the WiFi bug is pretty weird.

I just made a clean install of the latest build. And...I got the same behavior as the first time I installed the ROM. Meaning it does save the networks but nothing happens when I try to connect, and it doesn't automatically connect to the closest known network. It says Saved, you tap on it, you press Connect and...nothing happens.

To get it to work, I had turn Off wifi, and then turn it back On. After which it asked me to enter my password (!!!). But at least it did connect...

And now, after a second reboot, it did automatically connect to the previously saved network, but out of nowhere, I got the location icon stuck in the notification bar.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tirofog:
Okay, there are standard templates (quick reply) within messaging, such as 'busy now, call you later' etc. These are accessed via the menu when composing a message or can be edited in message settings under 'Message template'. Neither 'work'.. quite minor, but it was there and it's useful.

When calls are forwarded to voicemail/diverted there should be a notification in the status bar to that effect.. surely google hasn't, in its infinite wisdom, removed this from lollipop??

Apologies, I tried to keep it simple and also assumed these two features would be familiar.. heck, they were there in the Nokia days, trust me!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
Well, right about now, after two reboots, it doesn't happen to me either. But still, this is not ok. And I think it might have something to do with the network security.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
1st bug is confirmed. Added a screenshot.

About the second thing, I really, really don't know. I don't normally use redirections to anything. And I prefer not to have a voicemail. But I did forward my calls to another number for testing purposes. And the redirection itself seems to be working.

Now, in terms of notifying the user that call forwarding is on....I don't know, man... I don't know if it's implemented by Google, to be honest. And..right now, I can't really test that on a Nexus. I'm not sure it was there with previous versions, but again, I don't use these features so..they might have been there and I missed them. Maybe on Monday, if I've got the time for this, I'll try it to confirm if it's a missing feature or a bug.

Anyway...I understand you. You know which feature I'm missing a lot from my Nokia N82 days? The alarms. Yes, you have alarms in Android too. You can set an alarm, but it won't wake you up if you turn off the phone overnight. Whereas I could always rely on my N82 to wake me up every morning, no matter if the phone was on or off. I still wish that someone figures out a way to implement this. Can't be THAT hard to do. I mean...Nokia did it with its Symbian OS. Can't Google compete with that with its powerful Android?

Hi, I've been doing dirty installs since first build. The only 'bug' I have from your list is the random no sound in incoming calls... and also random, music through Bluetooth sometimes it's mute...

Everything else is working just fine.

Guess it depends on other factors we can't quite see right now.... but being a new Rom it's awesome!

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
Clean installs are mandatory if you want to be able to report accurate bugs. The fact that it works for you doesn't mean it's not a problem. It means that, somehow, you got lucky with your dirty installs and those bugs don't occur to you. But that won't help any new user or any user that likes to have a clean installation (which is always a good thing to have), and it definitely won't help the dev to fix the issue for everyone else.

Also, you're using the i9190. I'm using the LTE variant (I9195). Maybe that's something that needs to be taken into account as well. Maybe there is something specific to the LTE variant.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghuertasw:
Ok, granted that are different devices. But if you analyze what a dirty or clean install means, and the actual true difference between one and the other... it's more like a voodoo difference than a technical one. I don't have many apps installed, and I reinstall them using a zip made by TB even before the first boot.

On the 'clean' install I would:

Factory reset,

I install the new Rom,

Install the f4k's kernel

install gapps,

Restore apps using zip (still in recovery) made by TB.

Reboot

On the dirty one, just flash new Rom and proper kernel, reboot.

Sorry, but I fail to see the real difference. I've been a programmer for more that 25 years now, work everyday on Linux. I don't think I'm a noobie...

This is just my point of view of course, but so is yours, and I don't think you should disqualify mine under false arguments.

Enviado desde mi super i9190 usando F4K's Rom & kernel!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
I'm not disqualifying anything. :) I was just saying that, in order to understand each other, we need to speak the same language. In other words, if we want to report accurate bugs, we need to use the same testing conditions, including a clean install. Otherwise there is no pattern which makes debugging really freaking hard, which you, as a developer, should know very well. :P

Now, from my own experience, and apparently it does make a difference if you do it this way compared to any other way, a clean install looks like this:

In Recovery:

format /data (aka factory reset)

format /system (this is very important)

flash the ROM

flash the Gapps

reboot

If that package with apps also contains apps data, that's no good for a clean install and it can affect the results. Also, you don't need a package to restore your apps. Google does that automatically with its backup & restore feature.

Also, you're using a custom kernel, which has already been confirmed to fix some of the issues. That's no good for this thread. Since the ROM on this thread doesn't ship with that kernel. So that's another major difference.

So, let's make a deal. Make a nandroid backup in CWM/TWRP of your current ROM, so that you can restore it afterwards. After that, flash ONLY the ROM and the corresponding Gapps, paying attention to formatting /data and /system first.

When you're done, install ONLY the apps you need in order to reproduce the bugs (such as Chrome) from the Google Play Store. And report the results, when you've got the time. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghuertasw:
First of all, I have to say that was the best response I have ever gotten on this kind of forum! :) sorry if I sound a little harsh, English is not my native language!

So you say that the true difference relays on the apps data? Why would there be any difference there? There shouldn't be any difference in how data is stored... :confused:

As formatting /data and /system... /data aka factory reset, and /system is done in the Rom install script... every Rom first formats /system...

Anyways, I love trying different things, that's why I'm here! Next build I'll do it your way and report back!

Thanx man!

What recovery should I use to flash CM12? I currently have CWM 6.0.4.8 but I guess I'll have to update? I'm confused as to which TWRP I should use. Help!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsradu:
I know that the install script (updater-script) does that. BUT, from my experience with other devices (I come from another section of this forum, the one for Samsung Galaxy W, where this has been proven specifically true), somehow, if you don't do the system formatting manually, you might get your own, very personal, bugs. :) So, even though the ROM should do that, according to the updater-script, my experience shows that it doesn't always do it. So let's consider it a precautionary step, just to make sure you get all the dirt out of the system. Believe me, I wrote those 4 installation steps (5 if you count in the reboot, as well) countless times before. And usually I got good feedback from people trying them. So I'm not saying "trust me", I'm saying "try it". :)

About app data, yes, it is important NOT to restore app data, especially on clean installations. Because, you might encounter issues if, let's say you restore app data from 4.4 and the app of which data you restore, has different files that wants to download for Lollipop. And you get conflicts inside the app or conflicts between the app and the OS, in case the app relies on some components from the OS.

Also, on another side, you might not be able to spot some bugs if, let's say the data that the app would download (in case it needs additional data) from the server/Play Store is corrupted somehow, but not for you, since you got the "old version" of it, which was ok. So, for this case, you would be like "it works for me", and everyone else would be like "well, it doesn't work for us". :)) So...yeah, better let the app create its own data when it needs to. This is especially valid for games.

The difference, at least on this case, is most likely on that custom kernel that you got. But it can be from the app data, as well, if let's say you got some Chrome data that used to work, but doesn't anymore, if you get the app from the Store.

So, to answer your "there shouldn't be any difference in how data is stored". Yes, you're right. It might not be a difference in how the data is stored. But it could be a difference in which data is stored. :P Different apps might need different data for different OS.

There can be many variables to the same issue, so, as I said above, in order to make sure we've got as few variables as possible in order to minimize the risk of missing (possibly) important bugs, in order to be able to accurately pin point the issue, we need to use the same testing conditions. Preferably as similar as possible, if not identical.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghuertasw:
Perfectly explained! As I said, will do.

I only want to say that I was obviously talking about apps and app's data from lollipop (I made a truly clean install of the first build) :D never even consider recovering apps data from carbons kitKat... ;)

I assumed that, since it's CM, it would. But apparently this specific one for CM12 doesn't. So...wouldn't you say it would be a good idea to put the (complete) installation steps right on the first page so that everyone knows what to do prior to the actual installation of the ROM? Or add the command line in the updater-script file so that it actually does format the /system ? :P

3. Now download the CM12 lollipop, gapps and chainfire root. (See the very first post of this thread where you will find the download link to your device)

4. Transfer CM12, gapps and root files to your external SD card.

5. Now flash CWM through ODIN (search how to using google)

6. Now clean your phone from your previous system files using CWM. Only clean your internal memory. (search how to using google)

7. Now flash CM 12 lollipop from files which you already have in your external SDCard using CWM. (search how to using google)

8. Wallah!!!!!!!!!!! Now you have the latest build of lollipop in your device my new friend.

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][Lollipop 5.0.1] CyanogenMod 12.0 for S4 Mini 3G & LTE

Hi guys. Here is my outcome of this ROM.

Just updated to the latest build 05/12 (dirty update) with no update issues, dirty worked fine for me as did the same when I was on kk carbon ROM. I'm running my stock baseband/modem, thought I would try before making any changes, flashed kernel with f4k pre3.

Battery drain, big issue for some, always an issue for me... But... Coupled with using privacy guard to turn off all unnecessary settings for certain apps, I.e location, keep awake, auto start etc along with using greenify, green all apps that don't need to stay awake I.e everything apart from apps that use push/sync etc I.e email, Facebook, twitter, whatsapp, FB messenger, timely(won't keep time in sleep mode) etc etc an the last little life saver is a good one to keep your battery life is an app developed by [MENTION=5253144]cygery[/MENTION] called network toggle type 5.0 it creates a widget to toggle between networks fast an simple, I keep mine on 2g pretty much all the time cause unless I don't have WiFi and am not browsing the web without WiFi there is no need to have 3g/4g/lte sucking all your battery juice, works a treat, try it.

I only have very tedious bugs that I have noticed, no big issues as of yet.

First one is under wireless settings, More - Mobile networks - provider settings

Crashes com.android.phone, secondly (this might just be my phone, not sure) if I have charger plunged in after flashing/updating I just get the cm spinning logo, no boot. Also the icons in the menu, I did have two location icons on previous build but now have 3 home icons for different settings but I'm under the impression they are temporary throughout the build proceedure. Another is that when I use the power button option to switch phone to silent I get the silent icon up top (star icon) but still in loud mode , when I check again through power button option silent hasn't been highlighted, second attempt does the job, I can't think of any others I've come across apart from swiftkey keyboard not activating an being useable but my guess on that is compatibility issue with the app an LP 5.0 but I could be wrong.

Keep up the work guys [MENTION=3261191]F4k[/MENTION] [MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION] you have definitely converted me from kk carbon, best rom yet.

Update. Forgot to mention when I receive a text message, whatsapp etc notification my screen doesn't light up to let me know, handy when phone is on silent, worked this way with previous ROMs and stock ROMs, not sure if its a bug or just not yet implemented. I have no interest in bln, tried it an don't like the idea, rather just have screen light up as before.
