Hi, thanks for the great job, the rom is really good, i am using by 2 days and seems stable, but...

I have a problem that persist on my phone since kitkat update, the battery drain with 2g or 3g network and overheating.

It's not solved with this cm12 nightly, i underclocked the processor and put conservative/powersave governor, and the problem is still here.

In Battery i see that 45% was used by Miscelanous, and that 1900 mah is the battery capacity, the previous usage is 462 mAh but the effective is 1650 mAh... in 90-100 minutes of screen on it goes from 100 to 0%. there's something that i could do with your rom to solve that problem?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrischa:
did you checked your wakelocks... overheating and battery draining point to the issue some process keeps your device wake and dont allow it to enter sleep state.

you can try to use a wakelock detector to trace the issue;)

I extracted S4MiniSettings.apk folder from the unofficial LP build, placed it in system/app, set permissions and reboot. Then, in Terminal Emulator:

'su' and enter

'setenforce 0' and enter

This will change SElinux to permissive, allowing the display colour options in the app to take effect. Unfortunately this does not enable BLN, but at least the garish display colours are gone and it looks like BLN is coming anyway! Also, the change to permissive will revert after a reboot.. not sure, I think build.prop and init.d files need to be edited to make the change stick after reboot.

I will upload the above apk if anyone wants and is okay with F4k. Hope this helps!

I know there is always a risk in installing a custom rom, but if I follow instructions to the letter what are the chances of something going wrong so I would need to get a new phone or send it off for repair? Also does the baseband on my device have to be a specific version?

Well, most device maintainers/developers, like me, are not working for CM and are doing this as a hobby and on their free time. Imagine if I got like $1 from everyone that installed the ROM, then I could maybe make a living of it. But I don't, so I'm still just as broke as before.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tirofog:
Here you go.. you can create a folder S4MiniSettings and place the apk inside but it should be okay just to place it directly in system/app.

Then set folder permissions to rwxr-xr-x, apk rw-r-r--

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metaxaos:
As BLN issue is now fixed (thank to Arco one more time), I'd like to pinpoint the problem I mentioned briefly some time ago.

"Vibrate on hang up" feature of the caller app isn't working. In fact, non of three "vibrate" features actually works. This is only valid for this exact app, vibration in general works fine in all other places. Does anyone else experience it?

Besides, I remember that very first F4K's build of CM12 didn't have such problem, and it appeared a couple of builds after that. And now it persists in official branch as well.

One thing I am confused about it where it says to flash the two .zip files in step #3 and #4. Do I flash those in Odin, or is there a option in ClockworkMod Recovery to flash those from SD card?

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomniac-Butler:
I'm not sure how you originally rooted your phone as in which method you used, most require cwm, you don't use Odin to root , you use Odin to get cwm then get root by flashing with cwm. Here's the link to cwm / root instructions to make what I'm saying more clear.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krytern:
How I rooted was different I didn't need cwm. All I did, was used the AP button in Odin to flash "CF-Auto-Root-serranolte-serranoltexx-gti9195.tar.md5" and then my phone restarted and was rooted, even used a root checker to make sure. So I just installed cwm now and it appears my phone is still rooted, so I believe I am good to go. What is strange though after installing cwm the colours seem a tiny bit more "washed out" (not sure what else to call it).

EDIT: Changed my screen settings and the colour seemed to of gone back to normal. Going to go ahead with installing the custom rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomniac-Butler:
Now when you flash cm12 in cwm, if once its done it says it broke root would you like to fix, choose no, it may not but if it does choose no, its not broke. If you choose yes it won't boot. Once booted go to about an tap build number 7 times to activate developer options, in developer options go to root an change to your preference, either just apps or apps an adb, once that's done root is functional but not to its full ability, I found some root apps wouldn't work with the built in root option so I installed supersu and all works as it should

EDIT: I must admit that I do kind of miss the UI of the Samsung Galaxy device's official rom but I am sure this newer version of android will be worth it.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomniac-Butler:
Was gonna say I bet its booted by the time I noticed an replied to your post, it does take a little while to boot after flashing an the same when you upgrade ROM but normal boot is fine.also if you don't like the ui try apex launcher an add some custom icons, loads of custom options with apex launcher too, then add some fonts with ifont from the market. Go ahead with what I said about root now and also if you have battery drain issues let me know an I'll give you some steps to follow cool .
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krytern:
If I were to have the battery drain issue would it be very noticeable? I ask because for a while the screen will be turned on while I install my apps, do all their settings and try the apex launcher you mentioned so I imagine my battery will be getting drained anyway.

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ----------

Does this rom really take so much internal storage? Apparently I only have just over 1GB free but on the default, offical rom of 4.4.2 I had around 4GB I think it was.

---------- Post added at 10:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

My battery does seem to be gong down quickly. Also it is saying my available storage is pretty low, something around 1GB when there should be a lot more. I have 5.42GB of available space but when I addup what is being used for apps, photos, etc, it should not be using up anywhere near 4GB of space.

EDIT: Got my available space back. Turns out that factory reset/wipe didn't actually delete everything in my phone storage. Now I just need to figure out how to fix the battery drain (assuming that is why my battery is going down quick... The queen is constantly on while I fiddle around afterall.)

Turn off unnecessary options in privacy/app ops like location etc and auto start , keep awake for apps that don't trigger notifications I.e Facebook, email , whatsapp etc, everything else I've turned off, then greenify all apps again excluding push, whatsapp, Facebook etc, also try using network toggle type 5 made by a dev on this forum,(the app won't work unless you install supersu and grant access,don't work with the built in cm12 root option) switch to 2g when your using WiFi with this app, doesn't use battery unnecessary using 3g/4g when not needed, finally download battery configuration from the market , fully charge your phone, use the app , job done, my battery life is better than when I first bought the phone with this configuration.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tchavei:
Music player is working here perfectly. Since we all have the same hardware, it must be something with your install. Try wiping everything clean (factory reset), install the rom and gapps (I used Pico for my needs) and open the music player right away (before installing anything else). It should open and work (I'm listening to music right now).

If not, you need to check what is different from other users... Even stuff like modem version and recovery.

Best luck.

A little off topic, but my fuse has been lit by a post a few pages back! I've been flashing roms etc for about three years now, have learnt so much from the enthusiasts on these forums, and I'm still amazed by the lack of appreciation and gratitude towards the devs, and just in general.

They put up with a lot of ignorance and demands from users who feel they have some right to make them. The search and definitely the thanks buttons seem to be invisible to most of us. Just by way of example, one file I shared had almost 500 downloads, with just three thanks. No big deal for me, but - at the very least - the devs deserve every respect and courtesy for their fine (free) work and devotion which they then gladly share for the benefit of all.
