Is there anyway to install the stock Sprint S4 Camera ? I find the stock camera on this rom to be very.. Lacking.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Try upgrading to latest TWRP. I remember that helping someone but I don't know how old his TWRP was. I am using 2.8.

I have not tried it but this link is for the Stock S4 GPE camera. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2341943

Personally I use the Google Camera app from the Play Store
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] onitenki:
Good News. with the 12/12 build is Bluetooth is working great for me with no stutter/lag. so far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
I didnt know how cool the Google Camera was until you suggested to take a look at it. It came installed and i just thought it was the same as the stock camera but it has alot more features than I thought. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] boneman1:
I updated to a more current version of TWRP and was able install the ROM with the slim Normal Gapps. I appreciate the help.

Now for the next problem. Looks like I have a problem accessing the SD card. I can see the external SD card fine, but I can't see the internal SD card. I've got root access and have SuperSU installed. I verified I have root with root checker. I noticed it when I tried downloading wallpaper from Zedge and got a "Download failed" message. Is there a fix for this one?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
As for the SD card, I use ESFileExplorer and on a fresh install it defaults to the internal SD. You can try to navigate to it at the following path. /storage/emulated/0

I do not use Zedge and have not tried to download any wallpapers so I cannot help you there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] boneman1:
Thanks, that's exactly what I use and where I was looking. In ES File Explorer when I got to '/storage/emulated/0' I get a blank screen with 'Empty Folder' in the middle of it. Not sure what's going on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
Hey, I decided to give CM12 a shot. User the 12-12 build. Everything generally seems good and the few minor issues seem manageable to deal with. I did have one problem that I didn't see mentioned in the thread. When i call my own number, voice mail, with the dialer, the app will force close but the call will stay active, however re opening the app gives me a new instance of the phone that is not related to the current call. Like typing in my pin code and hitting pound will not register for the voice mail call i'm currently in. I was wondering if anyone else had similar issues?

Specs:

Twrp: 2.8.1.0 (i believe, installed latest)

GApps: Slim rom beta normal from 1st post

Launcher: Launcher 3 (the one that isnt google launcher)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Yes I have this issue with any code in the dialer. I found the apk for the stock Sprint visual voicemail app. I don't have the link anymore, but I can email or post the file somewhere for you. Let me know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
If you do find the visual voicemail app, please do send it to me as well. Thanks !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Anyone have somewhere for me to upload this apk?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dbaybay:
Thanks for all of your hard work! I'm going to give this ROM a shot as my new daily driver. Installing as I type :P

UPDATE: It's installed and running VERY smoothly! No force closes, bluetooth/wifi/voice/data/camera all working wonderfully. Absolutely amazing ROM thanks for all the hard work! The only thing I noticed there was an issue with was when I tried to move an app to my SD card it claimed I had no space but it is a fresh 64gb SD card so that can't be. Not sure if this has been noted yet, but if not just wanted to put it out there :D

Could anyone confirm that roaming is working for voice and/or data?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
Dropbox, Mediafire, MEGA, etc. Can you just attach the apk to your post as a file attachment?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Voicemail apk

I used the file in post #14 at this link. It worked for me. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2467373&page=2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carefree12:
I had the same issue on the 12/12 build. Voicemail is working fine on 12/15 now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
Just wondering if the SMS issues were fixed in this build?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carefree12:
SMS bug still there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
Voicemail on 12/15 working as well. Just have to clear its app data to get it to open.

I have a question, I had the premium for the visual voicemail on my last rom, but now its saying I dont. Would resubscribing charge me twice a month(first rom, this rom)? Or would resubscribing just continue my previous monlthy fee for premium visual voicemail?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Is there a significant change from the 12/12? Also can it be dirty flashed?

Aside from SMS everything is working fine for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
I cant tell any differences from 12/12. And i dirty flashed and it works fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] exeleon:
Heres a copy of the newest Sprint voicemail.apk for those still needing it or having problems with the apk previously posted.

Going to wait for the next release, i just flashed 12/12 earlier today. So glad to see active progress and updates!

Does anyone know how to train Okay Google to hear you from any screen? It doesnt work unless i hit the mic button to make it listen. When you try to turn on voice detection from any screen it says its listening for you to train it but never takes any voice input?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Exit and try again. Also speak clearly. I got through the training but it doesn't seem to work from "any screen". I just tried without success while typing this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
What r people's opinion on signal with this rom? When I used cm11 I had a lot of trouble with it. Just wondering how it is on cm12.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
So far it works for me. Haven't done an in depth comparison to stock. This has been my daily for almost a week.

---------- Post added at 10:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 PM ----------

Possible bug: I notice that when I search in Chrome it initially says no connection/page not found. This screen just flashes then the webpage loads. Anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] esloudan:
While I'm off for xmas I'm gonna give it a try. I travel a lot and had to remain on tw cause cm11 didn't like my phone to much. What I have seen so far this is gonna be nice just gotta wait till I can try it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
I noticed that the GPS works for checking in and stuff but when trying to use Google navigation it goes crazy. Lots of lost signal and jumping around. If I stop at a red light it finds me.

12/15 build. Can anyone else confirm?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] princebabyeater:
I just tried mine, I selected a point on the map and drove to it making deliberate wrong turns and it kept up rather well, no hiccups at all
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
Was that using Google navigation or just the maps? Also I'm using the slim rom gapps. Are you using slim or PA?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] princebabyeater:
Using navigation. I too am using the slim gapps

Mega Decryption Error

Just tried to download 12/18 and I am getting a decryption error. Anyone else?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Thexfactor2011:
I can confirm the Decryption error on the Mega site. Transfer gets to 100% and then status changes to decryption error. Probably a bad upload.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nivron:
Odd -- try the one marked "new" and see if you have the same problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dyandell:
That one seems to have worked. If I have any issues installing I will post but it did download this time.

EDIT: Spoke too soon. I cannot get the file to transfer to my sdcard. I downloaded it twice but do not have time to mess with it anymore right now. I will try downloading again when I get home. Seems like it downloads extremely fast but I am not sure what that would mean.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rjm83:
Downloaded without problem. Have not flashed yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dyandell:
So far pretty good. I had a little lag when apps were opening but I upgraded my gapps to the 12/18 PA so that may have had suffering to do with us. After they open everything seems fine. I don't use BT so no comment. Roaming seems to work. WiFi works. So far everything works great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kirschdog1:
Is GPS and SMS issues fixed on 12/18 ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dyandell:
GPS works and SMS/MMS works fine with Hangouts. I have not tried any other messaging app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gheezydroid:
stock messenger still gives the error that it is not sending messages, also I have noticed better response in the GUI.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] princebabyeater:
I use hangouts and I still get the failed SMS message
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
The failed SMS seems to be only on the jfltespr other devices it works fine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] IsaiahFeldt:
Tried to dirty flash 12/18. Wouldnt install and had to reboot phone to find my system folder was empty. Tried flashing again with a empty system and still didnt work. Had to revert back to 12/15.

EDIT: I just noticed that the zip I had downloaded from mega was incomplete, had a lot of missing files. I also see that other people are having the same problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dyandell:
I am on jfltespr and hangouts but do not get the failed SMS error.

Where is the update PRL?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carole6m:
There is no update prl option in non stock roms

Nope its not an option in aosp/cm ROMs only for nexus devices
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] carole6m:
yup unless it's nexus devices. otherwise you'll have to flash a touchwiz based rom to do that.

Anyone know how to take a screen shot. (Power + volumn down) not working for me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:

Here is a link. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager&hl=en Here is the website. http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/178

I think there is a way to restore from one to the other but I am not sure. Just keep a copy of your current CWM on your sdcard and flash back to CWM if you need to restore a nandroid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
Cyanogenmod prefers CWM over twrp anyways so it I don't see why it won't flash with CWM

I am taking the dive and getting this loaded on mine. I will test it out and let u know what works and doesnt work from my end.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Deslo33:
Is anyone getting a battery drain from "Miscellaneous" under Battery?

Tether/Hotspot also doesn't seem to work. It let's devices connect but doesn't allow internet access.

Only issues I really found.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] antibiotic1:
Excessive battery drain due to NfcNci.apk in /system/app (reported for the Int'l CM 12 build). You can delete the APK if you experience high battery use from "Miscellaneous".

That was posted in the OP, in case you didnt read it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Deslo33:
Ah, that makes sense. I saw NFC was on but grayed out in settings.

Thanks for the information.

I did the read the OP when I first downloaded the build, but the information on NFC wasn't there at the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
Did you try flashing this with CWM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] onitenki:
So. I spent 2 and half hours to and pushed this with both TWRP and CWM to see what happen. (Note: Disclaimer is there for a reason, my wife was pissed at me that I was up until 3AM playing with this rom.)

So lets go into my own review. I will update as I continue to use this.

PRELOAD:

YES, you can use TWRP or CWM to push the rom and gapps.

However, if you are going to use the gapps in ALPHA file from OP, please be advise. make sure your CWM is NOT 6.0.4.7. you will most definitely will get a Status 6 error. You will need to downgrade your version of CWM prior to this.

TWRP was a little bit more easier to install (discovered Status 6 error the hard way from not reading the OP about the gapps).

My steps to Lollipop:

Load into recovery

Wipe Cache/Dalvik/Data

install rom

install gapps

reboot system.

BOOM! You got lollipop!

:good:What works (from my daily apps I use) - This will get updated as I play with others apps but so far so good.

Phone Calls (this will be terrible if this part didn't work)

YouTube (plays music, video, both offline and background with screen off)

Chrome

Contacts

Maps (Including Navigations)

Hangout (Including SMS/MMS) -* had trouble with not getting notifications from this but I might be dumb on my own part so I can't confirm Notification is not working on this as I got it working afterwards

Google Now

Play Books, Newsstand

Android Device Manager

Google Camera

Facebook (Including Messenger)

Wifi

LTE/3G

Bluetooth*SEMI WORKING: See Next List* (Pairing works have but not tried A2DP yet. I will update this part later this afternoon when I go for a drive.)

:confused:What Doesn't Work:

Pushing Home does not turn on screen. (I might just be stupid though)

Bluetooth (Turning on from Settings screen will produce the following Error Message: Unfortunately, Bluetooth Share has stopped) *Workaround: Reboot Phone and turning on/off from Notification Bar will work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
Great analysis. I have GApps from another thread called AndroidLollipopGapps-Minimal.zip. Wonder if 6.0.4.7 will allow me to flash that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Cool man. And you are not going crazy with the home button. The dev on the international gs4 thread said he's working on fixing the issue. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] onitenki:
You can try. I looked around and noticed the most common was Status 6. CWM folks is aware of the issue though so it will be fixed by the newer version. However until that is released, if you get the status 6, i would just ODIN and downgrade it to a older version of CWM or if you are too lazy to find it, just flash TWRP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
Yeah I'm making a backup of my CM11 install in CWM now then I will try flashing CM12 with the other GApps. I'll report back in a bit.

Hangout as default SMS/MMS works. I haven't tested the new google messenger app yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
The default messenger is giving me crap. Says it fails to send but it does send I just found out. I'll test Google Messenger once all my apps re-download.

Also, how do I get the Google Now launcher to run? It says I have to clear defaults but the option is grayed out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
Its in OP about messaging
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
Oops missed that. lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
Its alright I run a few threads my self. I'm not the OP of this one but let's make sure we check the OP and read over the whole thing and a few post before posting issues to make sure we are not posting duplicates. Just to help out to not clutter up the thread. [emoji4] [emoji4]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] agentfazexx:
Two more things I noticed... Bluetooth breaks wifi until a reboot happens and mobile data/cell tower connection takes FOREVER after a reboot to connect.

Also, SMS gives the false failure message in Google Messenger also.

Thirdly, Google Now Launcher does not work. When I clear defaults I still do not see that as an option for my launcher.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] elwood:
I couldn't get a screenshot with this Rom or the Gpe 5.0 Edition. Is there a setting somewhere I'm not seeing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
No its just the power button and volume down together
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] elwood:
Ohh thank you. I kept trying power+home for the screen shots
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bthorne79:
That would be for OEM ROMs like touchwiz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ActorMike:
Flash back to TouchWiz

What does it mean to flash back to TouchWiz? Where can I get that? I'm having GPS issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] elwood:
That means to flash back to a Samsung stock based Rom. Doesn't have to be complete stock. Just need a TouchWiz Rom in order to get the GPS fix if it happens to you.

Roms like negalite, sacs, mxmr, or gdings will do the trick

I would suggest flashing a tw Rom and making a nandroid of it just so it's quicker to switch back and forth if need be

New Build

A new build is uploading (2014-12-30). The GPS works on this one. Trying to get to the bottom of the SMS issue still.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] edufur:
Wow... I am getting really close to flashing this. Can anyone comment on how this ROM stacks against CM11 (latest daily) as a daily driver? Also, I know that TWRP was recommended, but can anyone speak to CWM? Id rather not change recoveries.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nivron:
New build coming soon -- it has the SMS bug fixed!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] badreaper:
You're getting ready to make people's day! :good: Thanks!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] edufur:
Anyone? Also... is each build dirty flashable? or do you have to clean flash every time?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nivron:
I generally dirty flash, but if you have any issues, I'd recommend a clean flash.

I am using it as a daily driver, but I don't really use Bluetooth or NFC at all. Someone else can chime in and see how those areas are holding up.

Voice works, data works -- that's the important part for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] edufur:
Thank you so much! I dont care about NFC either... so perhaps I will make this switch. Do you know if CWM will work vs TWRP?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nivron:
I use (and recommend) TWRP. Some folks have confirmed that it works with CWM as well in their individual cases.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] badreaper:
Confirm SMS working correctly now. Thanks!
