im having issues with the camera i cant shoot videoes in 1080p it either have a bad quality or it doesnt shoot at all
[Galaxy S 4 General] vermiliom:
okay

Make yourself root after installing rom.

Then install the SuperSU.

I realized that the rom corrupts the recovery mode making the stock recovery. Even if I put the GT-i9500-CWM then back to get stock recovery after a few reboots.

HDMI not working as expected

The HDMI output in this ROM is not working as expected. it doesn't seem to support audio. I get only video on TV. once connected and removed, it cannot be connected again. It has to be rebooted before connecting. but audio doesn't seem to work on TV via HDMI whatsoever. hoping to get this fixed in the next build as I use it a lot. awesome ROM by the way.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Duzzar:
Is the audio disappearing bug gone on latest test build? I had to go back to touch wiz because it would happen almost guaranteed once every 2 days and that meant I couldn't use the alarm and I would miss calls.

Also you said you were waiting cm 12.1 to implement features. Which features are you exactly waiting for? I can assure you I'm not the only one here who would love 5.1 builds ;)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Shiftok:

[Galaxy S 4 General] fuser1337:
Yes it does.

Can anyone confirm if there is a call quality issue? I'm experiencing one.
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
I can not confirm a call QUALITY issue by meaning that the sound of calls is not good. It's just that CM12 has this sound issue mutes all sound related functions (music, alarms, calls) which makes the phone unusable as a daily driver (for adult people. It's not so important if mom still wakes you up in the morning). Unfortunately, I found that it is a random occurrence, therefore logs are not easy to produce. Although there was an updated sound driver, it obviously didn't help.
[Galaxy S 4 General] atthasit89:
As much as I love CM12, the issues with sound are getting to me up to the point where I don't feel I can use it as my daily driver anymore :(

Although before I flash a stock LL rom I have to wonder if it's safe to do it, I'm pretty sure I've seen multiple people break their EFS by going back to stock/other roms. It could have been because they were transitioning back to KK roms, and flashing a stock LL should be fine? Does anyone know?

battery life is like before, but i don't know how to rate it. but if I use it straight. i just 4 hours long. but from first time. it always 4 hours. because display 1080 took much energy

Thank you! can u also comment on the video recording please.. i know there is two of us here experiencing a video bug..where the video file recorded comes out small and pixelated... just want to know if its just us..
[Galaxy S 4 General] lulufandy:
did have you flash using clean mode?

what messenger app that you use, it just appear on one messenger or the other also.

I have ever faced the same using hangout, and update the gapps the job done. but some gapps not correctly remove the google play service stock one. so it stuck.

the gapps that do the job well is the PA gapps

http://xdaforums.com/paranoid-android/general/5-1-x-5-0-x-4-4-x-pa-gapps-mirror-t3069879

actually i dont know the reason why, it actually just simple string line code. but the other gapps not do the work as well as PA gapps

this one the other option

http://xdaforums.com/android/software/gapps-google-apps-minimal-edition-t2943330

tried it i hope it work well

I posted the video recording problem (but in other bug). I have ever faced pixelated one, but i forgot to upload it (the data was gone).

The problem might occurr, maybe when in the middle of recording, the data crashed, that make the file corrupted. this case maybe because of the auto focus.

and maybe the problem that cause video recording not work, i don't know the problem is on kernel one or the apk one, but that the fact the bug is occurred. and you are not alone.

[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] know it also :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] jadtannous:
Clean mode ? Like wipe dalvik and format system ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] lulufandy:
yup thats one. if you already do it, it should be the apk problem, maybe the gapps one. if you efer faced that problem again, post it here. and do some catlog, or screen shoot that point the problem. (at least censored privacy item):laugh:

Can anyone confirm if there is a graphic glitch in the animation when recent button is pressed?
[Galaxy S 4 General] codybank_789:
Sometimes, but when the clear all button is pressed there is a big graphic glitch (when apps fade away)
[Galaxy S 4 General] fuser1337:
Happens to me every time.

Workaround to get rid of it is:

Enable nav buttons

Press recent

Disable nav buttons

Press recents and done.

this glitch persists on landscape mode though. (But not when nav buttons are enabled)
[Galaxy S 4 General] codybank_789:
Sometimes the sound really annoys me. It may or may not work, it really sucks when u have an important call and the sound is not working..... I also have some wakelocks which drain the battery like mad, the phone is always awake 50% of the time.

In team canjica was bug when playing back videos, I'm not sure, but it may be this reason ... It may also be that Alberto has preferred to launch with CM12 with improvements before finalizing the CM12.1..

[Galaxy S 4 General] tembares:
Just red a message in the developers thread that settings can be set in the kernel, for example fast charging. The writer referred to file manager to change it.

I was wondering if there is a wizz kid who can make an app with these kind of options so it is easy to set for the less wizz people, like me. Add the sound values with it, for example.

Just a suggestion :D

When I enable tether, if I can remember well, I had the option to set the IP range and allowed number of devices to connect in the settings and if a device is connected I could see what ip address it has. I thought even with Mac address, but not sure about that.

Now I enable it and see that a device is connected. But cannot see any information about that device.

cm-12.1-20150711-UNOFFICIAL-i9500 - Testing

Hi [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION],

I just installed the new test ROM, and I have the following feedback:

Google Play Services has stopped responding after the installation - I assume I will have to get this rectified by clearing the cache of the Google services and rebooting. Am working on getting this resolved now, if I can't get it right I'll have to revert back to the old version of the ROM :(

The file groupings look weird on my home screens - any idea why this has changed?

I also noticed that my app drawer is now organised in terms of alphabetical order - its kinda nice, makes it easier to find things :)

Other functionality like making calls, seem to be working well. Will test VOIP, and Bluetooth and revert back to you ASAP!

Thanks for all the hard work!

1. I think we should add it to known bugs to prevent reporting one issue few times

2. I haven't any echo issues on frapeti's rom, incall quality and volume really good, but that rom less smoother. Modem I9500XXUGNF6. Could you perform zip to make call volume same like on frapeti's rom?

Thx
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
1) You right. I will add it ASAP

2) Unfortunately not all users experience echo while in-call (random and device dependent), with my volume levels echo effect is almost impossible to have on every device. Maybe i'll just increase a little bit them.

[Galaxy S 4 General] dandemonic:
Clean install? If not, I'd advise you do one including format /system, no excessive battery drain here and charging rate is good, with clean installed 12/27 build and PA micro GApps.

Otherwise, if it's not clear from settings/battery stats what's using power, maybe install better battery stats from playstore and see what's chewing your battery, and turn down screen brightness, turn off location etc.

My phone always recognises the charger as USB any reasons why ?

I think its hardware related anyone facing this issue

I love this ROM cause in the kernel the USB charge current is increased :thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Just avoid TWRP for CM ROMs ;)

It should :confused:

1) Wait next build, HW Codecs weren't correctly configured.

2) Well that's something related to GAPPS package, not to ROM :/

CM12 Sources are still WIP. Call Recording hasn't been implemented yet.

Are you using Stock Charger with Stock USB Cable? If yes, have you tried with a different cable/charger? If yes, again, does it happens also with TouchWiz ROMs? If yes, again again, then it's hardware related (probably defected FLEX Cable between motherboard and usb connector.

Drop in volume while switching apps..

Sir thank you for the reply can't wait for the feature to be implemented... Sir also after using the rom a little bit more I realised that while listening to music via headphones every time I switch an app or enter a new app or go to the home screen the sound volume drops and after a few seconds increases again (drop is big enough to be noticed )

Also when I go to the cellular network option and search for network.. It says "error while searching for network"...

P. S. the effect is maximum when switching to the launcher (i am using Google now launcher.)
