changes since cm-12-20150302 - update?

Hi all,

I have installed "cm-12-20150302" since quite some time and happy with it.

No bugs, only thing recognized , sometimes calls don't come through and I don't see that somebody has tried to call me until I re-start the phone.

Now, I'm not sure what has changed since that build vs. the latest version.

What has changed since then and is the latest build even more stable and absolutely no bugs anymore?

Thanks for your advice.

Michat

GAAPs tread has been closed and no downloads anymore.

Where can we get the latest GAAPs files now?

Thanks

Builds comparison: k2wl vs. f4k

[MENTION=5416372]csendre[/MENTION] , I have installed for the first time f4k's CM12.1 and it has some bugs (google services stop very often), but that might be because I installed it dirty instead of making a clean install with gaaps for 5.1. Before this I always installed k2wl's builds since January. May I ask, what are the reasons you like k2wl's work better? [MENTION=943196]k2wl[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3261191]F4k[/MENTION] might be interested in the discussion that follows.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] niwia:
mate its because lolipop 5.1 has different gapps package than standard 5.0 that is why play services won't work.. just flash the zip in the link and flash it.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
I couldn't give you any particular reason and this is off topic as well, so I will limit my comments. It may be totally personal preference, but for me the overall user experience seems better with k2wl ROMs (tried his CM 11 and 12 versions), I always had less issues and smoother running applications. Also, I may have expressed myself incorrectly as I did not intend to compare k2wl with f4k, my preference is towards k2wl's work in general, compared with all other S4 Mini ROM's I tried (and there were quite a few)

hey!!! hey!!! i am not against F4k making cm12.1 for this device...he is wonderful developer.

Actually he made that wonderful kernel for this device..

and i am very grateful to him.

no need to compare my work with his.

I didint consider my self as a developer.

it is just a hobby.

BTW. i am compiling cm12.1 right now...will upload soon.

new build of cm12 is up!!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
Cm-12.1-20150407

Very clean install (wiped everything + formatted /system, /cache, /data, /data/media) in order to avoid all potential interferences.

Flashed CM-12.1 followed by gapps-L-4-4-15 (gapps-L-4-7-15 is out now) and SuperSu v2.46 (I know you can enable root in developer options, but this works better in my opinion)

Observations:

- Several FC for google services and keyboard during initial setup, but could complete setup with no issues. I also had a couple google service FC in regular use, but very rarely. I wonder if gapps updates will take care of this.

- What works: basically everything including calls, sms, mms, data on both SIMs (2G and 3G), USSD codes, WiFi, FM radio, GPS and BT (no issues with pairing or use)

- All apps I tested were working perfectly, including Netflix which sometimes caused issues on previous or other LP builds. I ran all the apps usually causing problems for me (including flash player) and could not find any issues. Even the smartlock feature works perfectly which used to be a pain sometimes.

- In terms of looks, the lock screen has the same issue with provider name alignment as the other CM12.1 version out there. Would be great if this could be fixed.

Overall, this ROM works great, totally usable as a daily driver. Another awsome job, thanks k2wl! Hope you will keep this hobby going for a long time ;)

---------- Post added at 10:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

Did you set SIM1 to 2G before trying to enable 3G for SIM2? Only one of them can be set to 3G in the same time.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] salim2000:
thank you so much

can you make a root for cm21.1 gt-i9192????
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] pentruexperiment:
[Answered] How to root CM12/12.1 on GT-I9192

CM12 comes pre-rooted. You just have to enable root from developer options. In order to do that, follow these steps:

1) Go to Settings > About phone > Build number. Tap on "Build number" 7 times - this will enable developer options.

2) Go again to Settings > Developer options > Root access > Apps and ADB. Your system is rooted now!

Note: Be careful not to mess up things you don't know in Developer options.

Even after enabling root this way, some apps that need root will not work properly. In that case you have to:

3) Install from Google Play Market "SuperSU".

4) After installing it, open SuperSU > Settings > Mount namespace separation - uncheck the box.

Now all root issues should be solved.

Update: Cm-12.1-20150407 BT Bug

Unfortunately I have to make this update as upon further testing I discovered that the same BT bug exists in this ROM as reported with F4k's version. With regular headphones everything works well, but when connected to a car kit with BT media and messaging access, the BT services force closes. As [MENTION=463533]atego[/MENTION] reported in the F4k CM12.1 thread, once these two options are disabled, the BT works with car kits as well.

Update: Upon further testing, it is BT Messaging that causes the FC. [MENTION=943196]k2wl[/MENTION] should I try to grab a logcat or should we wait for the CM team to look into this?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
wait for few days for cm team....they are making big merge of 5.1 code in cm12.1 so may be it will get resolved eventually.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] AdrienL83:
Hi [MENTION=943196]k2wl[/MENTION],

The new cm 12.1 work fine excep that the fc on music app and the reboot of the phone after 2-3 hours :/ (i make a clean installation).

Please fix that

Thanks you so much !! ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
guys like you should be recognised contributor.

nice work!! keep that up!!

UPDATE _

anyone tried todays cm12.1 build???
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] sacharja:
Sure ;)

Guess there are currently only a few experiences because dirty flash doesn't work. At least not for me:

- from latest 4.4.4 to 5.1: "com.android.phone was closed" and "MMS/SMS was closed" messages every few seconds

- from latest 4.4.4 to 5.0: "whisper push was closed" one time message --> usable; then from 5.0 to 5.1: "android services (or similar) was closed" messages every few minutes (not usable)

Anyone who was able to dirty flash to Lollipop? Is there an easy way?

However, I realized that it's no longer possible to "cancel" one or both SIMs PIN on bootup. Which is bad if I only want to use my private SIM during the weekend.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
Just flashed it over the previous one and also updated gapps. So far no issues, everything seems to be working. I have no issues with restarts as Adrien but I do not use the built in music player. Have not had any FC issues with today's build yet. Did not try BT in the car, will do that later today.

Update: Same BT bug is there as in first version.

CM12.1 bugs

They're almost the same with F4k's build, exactly playback audio control and troubles with kernel that doesn't work at lower frequencies (it resets any settings to 384-1728 mhz). For me more critical bug is playback audio control, waiting for fix...
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] djsanta:
I had problems with the music player since start. So i use other players mostly Google Play Music. no problems with AudioFX though.

As for the kernel, use kernel auditor or any other from the play store to make changes. It works fine.

I use a min of 162MHz n max of 1674MHz on intellidemand governor.

Working fine till now. Decent Battery life.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] tareumlaneuchie:
Same here, I get stuck in the boot loop.

I have tried both cm-12.1-20150407-UNOFFICIAL-serranodsdd.zip and cm-12.1-20150409-UNOFFICIAL-serranodsdd.zip

With either:

No gapps

pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150315-signed.zip

pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.1-20150315-signed

I get the boot loop as well.

My install process (from k4wl) is as follows:

- boot into recovery,

- factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik (last 2 useless but ran out of options),

- install CM 12.1 above,

- install gapps above (or no gapps),

- select reboot

Phone does not reboot properly, I have to remove the batteries.

Eventually the boot logo changes into 'Updating apps XX out of 67', crashes at the end, then reboots into 'Updating apps XX out of 113', then eventually crashes, and reboots into the same 'Updating apps XX out of 113' after the boot logo.

Without gapps it is exactly the same.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] mielletseed:
gapps install a backup script to survive flashing of CM.

So if you want to make a real clean install you have to wipe /system too (to get rid of all traces of your old gapps)

Any advice?

So:

1) Format /system

2) Format /data

3) Format /cache

4) Boot (did not work, never got past the 'Samsung' logo),

5) Boot into recovery, repeat 1)-3) + dalvik and Install CM 12.1 dated 09/04/2015

6) Boot (did not work, hang on boot loop with 'Optimizing app XX out of 63') -> crashes when it gets at the end and reboots and repeats the process.

7) Boot into recovery, repeat 1)-3) + dalvik + 5) + Install pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150315-signed.zip

8) Boot (did not work, hung on boot loop with 'Optimizing app XX out of 113' after waiting 1st time for what seemed like an eternity with the Cyanogen Alien) -> crashes when it gets at the end and reboots and repeats the process.

Alternatively, I also installed the pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.1-20150315-signed.zip, but problem is still there.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
that i dont know for sure but i think as soon as they make transition to cm-12.1 nightlies ...they will move forward with cm-12.1.(which may be sooner) but they could also maintain cm-12.0 branch for their OPO and other devices. But that is just a guess on my part.

will get fixed eventually.

ya few random freezes but rom is great.

how much do think cm12.1 fare in terms of stability and dual sim support against cm11????

CM12.1 is generally smoother, stabler(more usable) and fun to use.............
