Hello. I have the Rom and from 7 hours. I'm at work (place with low coverage, with the usual amount of calls), it's just an observation compared with previous versions, nothing more.:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
please - never say such things after less than 72 hours (in case of this ROM I would suggest waiting 144 hours) then report battery life (assuming your battery is in excelent condition)

Using Odin will not be a problem, any rom flashing through TWRP/CWM, you will need to reformat those partitions as ext4

[quote name="AntaresOne" post=60952231]I don't see anything weird in the logcat, and radio properties are applied well during ROM's installation. Didn't touch anything on the device tree, so this is ROM-related. Did you check your APNs? On what frequency do you get that issue? LTE?

I'll send you both a test build today!

RomHut is currently down because its owner is doing some work on it. Please be patient, is going to be back soon

Global or LTE won't send. Does not matter if WiFi is on or off. I have tried the usual APN edit that always worked previously. I'm also using the latest radio for my carrier.

*EDIT*

I tried restoring "Data Only" from my TiBu backup for "Phone Storage (SMS/MMS/APN)". Granted it was from a CM12.1 backup but t seems to have fixed my issue. MMS will now send/receive. Only strange part is the manual APN edits and the TiBu data restore have the same APN info in them.

Installing SuperSU is still possible on this ROM, is designed to respect CM root if desired, and gets rid of that annoying number symbol that pops up in the notification bar every time a rooted app is run.

So far, this is the best ROM of the S4 (SGH-I337M) that I have found.

I'm getting excellent battery life and I just have only one issue that I've already solved, which was getting constant Data (Internet) connection lost, but I installed- the modem that best suited my provider (Telcel - Mexico) and everything is under control (for now).

So here's my general tips after installing this ROM to get a great battery life:

0. For Telcel (Mexico) users only:

Here's the modem I'm actually using, to be honest, don't know if it's the best, but has been working great for me:

1. Flash SuperSU via CWM / TWRP / MobileODIN

2. Install Xposed Framework

After sorting a couple things out I only see one remaining issue. I am unable to install Better Battery Stats 2.1.0.0 B3 as a system app. I am also unable to apply hard reset protection to Avast Mobile Security.

Strange, I dirty flashed this morning and have zero problem till now. BT ok, YouTube ok, play store ok, camera ok, themes ok, LTE ok...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
Oh, FWIW, When first going to the latest I did dirty flash it. I had no FC's and all was smooth. My MMS issue was unrelated to a dirty flash and was present after a clean flash (has since been resolved).

I'm not saying you can dirty flash, it just worked for me. There is enough info given here to support clean flashing is the best choice.

mhl support?

Has anyone tested the mhl support? Especially mhl+ Bluetooth.

I'm looking for a ROM that works well with Area51's App Radio unchained
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] android_patrizian:
Same here. Dirty Flash worked perfectly (as always). In case of problems you can always wipe data etc afterwards, so you can check if a dirty flash works for you.

A clean flash is recommended by many experienced people here and is the best choice in case of problems.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
MHL is not working on AOSP ROMs - you must use TW in order to get this function to work (Samsung's closed code)

Hmm, how to do a dirty flash? I wiped only data and caches but at installation it shows "formatting /system", and everything was gone after that... Asking because I have no time to configure new installation right now, planning to do it later this week. I have TWRP 2.8.6.0 w/ F2FS

And thanks for the rom, it's great! Donated 10€ last week :)

And do i just flash it like usual after flashing the rom as described in the first page?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JonanomisK:
What "fixed" the crash for Google Play Services for me was switching the location mode to device only. It seems whenever it tries to use the network for location it crashes. It's not an elegant solution but it works until we can find the cause.

I will continue testing. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] android_patrizian:
Dirty flash means installing the rom without wiping anything at all.

By wiping data your deleted your data and apps yourself.

GPS won't fix position

Hi,

When I try to fix my positon with an app called GPSfix, the closest it gets is about 100 meter and it takes a long time.

this makes using the phone for navigation impossible. I used the gps setting of device only.

when i flash back to stock rom there is no problem with fixing my position. so no hardware error.

I flashed new Baseband, also no effect.

I'm very happy that the development of this rom is back on! thank you.

Updated Google Apps package in OP

Download: https://romhut.com/addons/gapps-5-1-2015-05-23-24

This must fix Google Play Services issue

You can also download and flash it through OTA app.

Required:

Remove an eventual Google Play Services update (Settings->Apps)

Reboot in recovery, flash again ROM's latest update without wiping anything

Flash new GApps package

Reboot system

The whole process will not delete your data, settings, neither installed apps.

No problem with google services also. I didn't try bt coz i rarely use it. Thanks really really much [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION] for coming back and JDC Team..

I have 3 questions though. I've used slim zero gapps coz i like to keep it with the least possible apps. Should i move to cm optimized gapps? Can i find somewhere which apps this version includes? Second, i've formatted cache, data AND system to F2FS. Is this the best i can do or should i reformat system to EXT4 for optimal performance? Last, i installed via recovery supersu before finding out that i can grant root access via developer tools. I'm not using root access a lot, at least for now. Should i stick with supersu or uninstall it?

Im asking all these questions coz I'm thinking if i have to change something, to do another clean install with the next version and dont have to change something again later.

What kind of micro stuttering and where? I'm on 25/05 (internal release, a little update of the previous one) and not a single stutter.

Google Play Services FCs:

-I installed a hour ago the above said build, clean install with GApps linked in my previous post and in OP. Result: neither a single FC for both Play Services and Bluetooth Share.

Also playing with BT switch while WiFi is active and connected to my home router, not a single issue.

MMS issue: depends on message size, seems like the app isn't compressing media file or the text message longer than # characters. A common CM issue which I firstly experienced on my old i9070 device with CM10.1. I'll do something

same here..

and if i try to send an mms, my internet connection dies.. all apps say i'm offline :(

i got the BT force close issue too, first time i installed ROM. clean install mind you.

when BT force closed on me, wireless would not connect. i could see networks, enter passwords. but that's it.

my reaction was, "fudge, reinstall again, see what heppens".

second reinstall was also clean - by this i mean wipe data (including internal), cache, and system. right now, data & cache are F2FS, and system is ext4.

on the second install, all worked well. no force closes or anything.

as for google play, i installed the gapps pack linked on the cyanogenmod web page.

then all apps including google play services updated.. and that was it. didn't have a FC so far :)

only problem that still remains, is the MMS. if i try to send, phone says it has no network. it all works if i'm on wireless BTW.

one more thing i want to add, in the previous build, sound quality (headphones) was ABYSMAL. i mean bad. highs were all distorted.

didn't realize this till yesterday when i restored an old GPE backup before wiping to install the beta3 build.

GPE sound is impeccable!! also, neutron (player of choice for me) reports a latency of 96 on the GPE, and 128 on the optimized build.

in the old 0605 build it would sometimes jump to 170!! that's when highs were off.

on the current beta3 build neutron reports 128 so far. did not listen to music over phones last night, but will do so today @ work.

any ideas how i can get rid of any extra latency? install another driver? get rid of AudioFX (somehow i think this is the culprit). i did disable enhancements, and i even disabled the app on the old build, but no dice :(

PS: settings -> display&lights -> LiveDisplay -> ReducePowerConsumption still does nothing :)

There are two APN's in mobile network ... access points.

1. open your DATA APN

2. ADD mms to APN Type.... default,supl,mms

3. COPY MMSC from MMS APN to DATA

4. COPY MMS Proxy from MMS APN to DATA

5. COPY MMS Port from MMS APN to DATA

6. SAVE settings

7. REBOOT phone

8. It works for me on CM 12, CM12.1 and CM12.1 optimized (before this fix I always had MMS problems)
