I had something similair like you in previous builds (have to test it in this build).

1. Play music.

2. Open whatsapp.

3. Result = music stops and device becomes slow as hell. Only a reboot can fix it then.

If it happens again ill try to get a logcat
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] finalmax:
Seems this solution is working till you reboot the phone. After reboot FC still present but if you disable location service and clear play services cache then you can turn on location without having FC.

The solution that works for me: don't use Google Play Services at all but then you need an alternative source for apps/updates.

But when I flash the stock CM gapps ( 211 mb), i just have the play store installed... it's normal ?

Good to see some this thread get resurrected.

I had the force closes as well, what fixed it for me was uninstall the google play store. After that as was well again.

I also experienced the same whatsapp sound bug:

I was listening to Spotify, and I got a whatsapp message, upon opening whatsapp my phone basically froze. I had to remove the battery to get it going again.

Another easy to check bug (probably also related to gapps - Play services - Location-high accuracy).

Can't use google camera with location enabled.

Did the trick above involving setting the location to device only, clear gplay services cache, location - high accuracy, used google camera, all good. After restart I had to login again into google and camera doesn't work anymore.

// And after another restart, plenty of gplay services has stopped. Apparently resolved with clearing cache for gplay and camera.

Anybody using google camera without any issue?

It's a general package for the multiple processors available on Android devices, arm, arm64, x86. So there are duplicate files, which causes the size to balloon. Simply opening the file in WinRAR or 7-Zip could have revealed this without my explaining it.

thank you for your great work , i have a question:

why you don't enable overclocking and underclocking of cpu and gpu kernel-side? sometimes the device lags
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
This question is for Alucard... he already answer in his thread. The meaning of his kernel is not to overclock hardware because of system stability and consumption of battery.

Go to settings/Display/LiveDisplay/Color Calibration an set 92/93/100 f.e.

Then u will see the "stuttering" especially when switching apps or scrolling.

To the guy with the problem, reset everything in LiveDisplay to default settings and your stuttering will be gone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
This is a relevant question for the kernel thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2590246

It has however been discussed and answered by Alucard many many times and the answer is that we prefer stability over speed and overclocking brings guaranteed instability no matter if you chose to overclock or not, just by enabling it in the kernel it affects other things. So no overclocking is over likely with alu kernel.

I am surprised you say your phone lags, mine has never performed so well even under heavy multitasking - is your system clean, have you used the tools in Stweaks to ensure every thing is clean???

- does not lag for me (and if it does for you you can tweak your hotplug e.g.)

- overclocking is not supported as the effect is negligible and brings lot of hardware related issues (i can recommend to search xda about articles around overclocking - there is a nice article describing why not to overclock)

Mobile data not working

Dear [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION] : I am facing a problem in mobile data. I was on 060515 build (Beta 2 release) and was browsing using 3G network. I had selected LTE as preferred network type although was using 3G as LTE is not available through my provider. it was working but suddenly while posting a picture through Whatsapp my mobile crashed. It hannged for few minutes and when I restarted it was not booting up. After the CM logo it was again restarting. Everytime it restarted automatically after the CM logo. So I forcefully shut down the phone by removing the battery and then reflashed the 0605 build. After doing it everything is working except mobile data. I have checked all setting (APN & others) and they are fine. But mobile data is not working. It just does not connect (no signal at all - neither E or H or H+).

Can you let me know what is the issue? Did my modem's got corrupted? Is there any solution to this? Its very urgent because I use 3G a lot and my phone is useless without it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jstath1972:
I don't know what causes your problem but i believe that you have to install again a modem/bootloader. If your model is i9505 you have to install them through Odin. Go to this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50965837&postcount=2627 for further instructions and downloads.

thanks for the detailed info. i'll give it a try when i get home.

yeah, get rid of audioFX.. i disabled it. i can try to uninstall the system app, but how am i sure all the code is in that app, and the driver doesn't have some code in it?

i tried disabling and uninstalling, and the latency was the same.. so probably something in the driver.

viper, yeah, believe it or not, on the previos build 0605 i installed viper and audio was worse :(

but i am happy to report that on this new build, audio is MUCH better!

not as good as GPE, but close enough to keep me on this ROM.. considering all the other benefits :)

latency is still high-ish compared to GPE, [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION] there any way i can install the GPE driver on this ROM?

aside from this, i've had no FCs of anything so far.. and i have stressed the phone today. music (neutron eats up battery like crazy), 2h15min screen on time so far, and some web browsing on bad LTE signal + 15min navigation in the morning (compass still offset), and i've now hit the 30% mark.

comapring to the 0605 build, battery is about the same with screen on. but when the device is sleeping, OMG. signal @ my workplace is poor, but this last build holds out like crazy. dunno what you did, but great job!!

Guys, I swear I don't have Play Services FCs. Installed that stock CM GApps, then updated Services to the latest available. No FCs in high-accuracy Location with Maps enabled. No FCs of Bluetooth Share like I said.

I don't know how you installed this ROM, this is what I experienced. Before the 1st boot I updated to an internal release of Alucard built with GCC 5.1.1 and -O3 flag, maybe this fixed Services FC? I guess not, but who knows...

Well I have Play Services FC too since today .. _BUT_ I haven't updated onto the new version yet!

I am currently on 12.1-20150506 and using XXUHOE1. PlayServices worked fine all weekend and even monday until about 8am this morning. That's when I first encountered a single FC and could use the phone for almost every morning. When I was at work I didn't pay much attention, but didn't notice anything while playing a game during my break. The constant FC started when I tried using the phone after work at around 6pm and it only stopped when I switched to "Device Only" like mentioned in this thread. Since I've activated auto-update in the play store I guess there was some stealth-update or something to any of the google services causing this problem. The new build however doesn't seem to be the problem.

I've installed GApps from I think the link in the #1 Post (well they're named gapps-lp-20150314.zip) if that's any help.

2g ?

Hi,

sorry about absolutely noob question, but does this fix the 2G problem (= no connection on 2G)?:

This and a camera issue was the reason I switched back to Stock long time ago. Just tried again 1 week ago to see 2G still not working and did not test further because this is a No Go for me, often in Small villages at East Germany with 2G access only.

Here's a logcat which should contain 2 "gplay services has stopped" errors.

I just entered into maps and tap the button to get my current location.

Location set on high accuracy, all google sync settings enabled other than Location History, which was suggested to be disabled above. Well, that didn't help.

Clean install, tried with 5 different gapps packages I think. Same end result. Hope you'll find the culprit.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1ooGA5JToyHbTdqZEZNdmlXT0U/view?usp=sharing

// Maybe this line ..?

Btw, the easy way to stop getting those messages is to go into settings-apps and clear Google Play Service's cache. That will work until getting in other app that requires location.
