I have used the data connection to look for info on places such as a web page using WiFi or mobile data while in a call several times. Latest was two days ago. I cannot comment on whether or not it works with FB or Whatsapp as I do not use those apps.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kaseykrehbiel:
Doesn't it depend on your carrier? I thought if you were on a CDMA carrier such as Verizon or Sprint, you can't talk and use data simultaneously, whereas if you are on a GSM carrier such as T-Mobile, AT&T and most of the rest of the world, you can. I'm on T-Mobile and I can do both at the same time.

this is the correct answer. if using cdma, no call and data. if using gsm call and data. i use verizon. if im on 3g(cdma) data will drop on call. if im on 4g(lte which is gsm) data stays.

I get those issue as well and don't worry, it occurs on different rom as well (Slimsaber/GE). So guessing related more with samsung device.

This is correct. The ability to do data and voice simultaneously became available with the roll out of 4G (LTE, etc) coverage. You cannot do it on 3G and below.

Which TWRP do you have? I downloaded the 2.8.7.0 in the OP and flashed it using CWM without issue. (I also have the I545).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bigjailerman:
Thank you for lending a hand. Allow me to go backwards.

The sch i545 is rooted. I had comando root manager. I think my main issue was that I tried to instal twrp through rom manager. It asked me to try it a second time than I had success and said twrp was installed (all it looked like both were available) I then tried to rent info twrp to start firmware update, modem etc. I want able to get that far because when I tried to reboot into recovery, that Odin screen popped up saying download, don't disconnect from target. Obviously I screwed up along the way. I was able to figure out to get out of that endless screen and one again I tried to reboot info recovery and same thing happened.

So really the question is what do I need to do to unravel my mess. My ultimate goal is to instal 12.1. I have that, the gaps, the modem from suges thread.

If I fax forty reset, where would that leave me?

Also I am on MK2

THANKS for you assistance...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ribenabob:
first of all, if your bootloader is mk2 you are out of luck. you need to have an mdk bootloader.

second, it sounds like you are booting into download(volume down) instead of recovery(volume up)

May i know if you are using the stock alucard kernel or another one?, and if so for alucard, on STweaks on IO settings try this.

Internal readahead = 1024 kb

External = 512

And Zen as the scheduler for both Int. and Ext Storage :)

I tell you this cause to be sincere, on the last 8 months of trying different Lollipop Rom's and kernels, this is the only one i haven't experienced stuttering or anything like that.

This profile is supprisingly well done.

It has extreme undervolting, even works on my S4 which has default voltage of 925 on the lowest speed. Power saving stuff and no distorsion at music (only when you use the phone on heavy duty stuff like browsing large pages).

(I use V4A ultra quality profile)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Razoth:
how save is it to undervolt/overvolt? dont want to hurt the device :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FPSUsername:
Undervolting can't really harm your device, if not stable, it will show freezing loops and BSOD. If so, raise voltage with +25mV every time.

My S4 is one of the 10% of the models that need a high voltage on the CPU (PVS1).

Our CPU has 7 kinds (PVS0 till PVS6), the higher the PVS value, the lower the voltage is.

As seen here the PVS2 has a minimum voltage of 900mV at 384MHz while mine has 925mV which means mine is PVS1 (I think PVS0 has 950mV at 384MHz)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Razoth:
that fixed nothing, sadly, internal or external stor no difference, alu kernel that came with the rom, sould i try another one?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] b13n:
What about your CPU Governors?, if you wish to also try, i have the first two cores on "Intelliactive", the other two on "Conservative", have set hotplugging to have all cores on all the time (this doesn´t kill the battery life, at least for me, only while heavy usage), and hotplug suspend mode on always active.

My search fu in this thread has failed me, and I'm not sure if I've asked this already. If I did, I'm sure someone will let me know. ;)

Is it possible to set different notification sounds for select contacts, just like it's possible to set different ringtones in the Contacts app?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Afraid not. You would need a 3rd party app such as Contact Alert.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Then some added text to the Notification sound selector in the Messaging app is needed. It's possible to access the settings while in a conversation, and the assumption would be that changing the sound would only apply to that conversation. A mention of the change applying globally would help.

Google Messenger supports the notifications feature, so I installed it and disabled the Cyanogenmod Messaging app. Problem solved.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
They do apply to each conversation, not global. You just can't apply to the contacts themselves. Always found it odd.

Hey guys, I just recently installed the Optimized CM 12.1 release from the JDCTeam on my Galaxy S4 and noticed that the Bluetooth is not working anymore. When i go into settings to turn it on I get the "Turning Bluetooth on..." message and then after a few seconds I get the "Unfortunately, Bluetooth Share has stopped." message. The second message keeps popping up until I kill the Bluetooth from launching.

My S4 is the Canadian model (SGH-I337M) and I did a clean install of the Optimized CM 12.1 ROM and am running the latest release (2015-08-17).

Also my Bluetooth worked fine before upgrading so I don't think its a hardware issue.

Rebooting the phone also does not solve the issue.

Is this a common issue? Is there anything I can do to fix the problem and start using Bluetooth again?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Some resolved by formatting dalvik and cache, installing ROM + gapps micro/pico, formatting dalvik and cache again, then booting. No one ever explained why this helps ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Then there is an issue with the app. Changing the notification sound for a particular conversation changes the notification on a global basis. I got a text message from Straight Talk this morning about my service and the notification sound was the one I use for a family member. Looking in Settings > Sound, the global sound had changed to the notification sound I use for the family member.

As mentioned, switching to Google Messenger resolves the problem, but I have to admit, I'd like to have the Messaging app included in the ROM work properly. Why download an app when I don't need to, eh?

EDIT: Rant irrelevant There were issues in my installation which caused not only this issue, but problems with Bluetooth as well. Completely reinstalling the ROM fixed both.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bigjailerman:
Al I can do is enter downloading, or shut phone down and restart using volume down and power button then choose vol down at warning screen to boot into phone. I find it impossible to boot into recovery. Evidently amen I attempted to use ROM Manager to load twrp I did something wrong because I can't get to Odin recovery or Cwm which worked fine.. I'm trying to re flash mdk2 to hopefully go back to stock. Then I can hopefully get to recovery and try Ota and eventually get 5.0 1am 5hrs some point. If I am wrong feel free to correct me
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
Holding Volume up+home+power won't boot you into recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bigjailerman:
I've been trying for over an hour lol. Tried volume up and power, wait for vibration, release power wait for Samsung, release volume, back to download, I Try with cool up, down, both up and down, all three power, home, volume. All variations. I don't know what else I can do to try to upgrade past the mdk2. I'm sure when I removed some boat that's why I couldn't get Ota on the ****ty Verizon way of going through Ota upgrades. Any suggestions? I thought there was full cm 12.1 I could use on this but I'm really not sure right now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
If your phone originally came with MDK there s a rooted no wipe recovery image available here on XDA. I can find the link and add it in a few minutes. If the file is no longer available I can see if there is room in my dropbox.

If you ever took even one OTA from VZW you are hosed and have to find the firmware that matches your bootloader or last update and CM is no longer an option. If I read your earlier post correctly you did have CWM so that should not be an issue.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
It all makes sense now. Make sure to use a MDK image only. That will match your bootloader. If you need an image because of broken download links, PM me. I'll dig around on my PC and see, I am fairly positive I have an MDK image for restores.

Flashed onto an SCH-i545L (rural carrier variant - Bluegrass cellular in my case).

After changing a few settings in the service menu *#*#3646#*#* and APN settings most everything works beautifully.

Unfortunately, bluetooth does not seem to work. I get a "Bluetooth share has stopped responding" message when I try to toggle it on (as well as my wifi disconnecting). Any ideas on how to remedy this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] buten:
hmm, is that my only option? i was hoping there would be a hotfix or something to fix the issue, dont want to go down the format and re-flash route and have the same thing happen again, especially considering i did a clean install in the first place

some quick googling and it turns out some other people are having the same problem with the I337 model and this optimized CM 12.1, im guessing its a bug in the ROM itself?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
Which Gapps did you flash? There has definitely been a connection made to this issue and some packages of Gapps. I have also seen a few reports of wiping cache/davlik and dirty flashing the ROM again fixing it. Either way a nandroid and some form of flashing seems to be the fix. Micro or pico Gapps seem to be the best.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] buten:
flashed stock Gapps initially, dont really want to go down the route of having to backup and reformat, maybe the devs will release an update/patch soon?

looks like we are in the same boat with the bluetooth issues :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
Maybe but until then what you don't want to do is the only viable option. The way it has been talked about recently it seems to be a Gapps issue, not a ROM issue.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ralfbergs:
I think both the carrier and your handset need to be able to support it.

---------- Post added at 09:02 ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 ----------

Wait a minute... There's something wrong with your argumentation...

You cannot make voice calls on 4G with the S4, as the S4 cannot do VoLTE. The S4 performs CSFB (circuit-switched fallback) to 3G or 2G when you try to place a voice call or have an incoming one. So mentioning 4G is misleading.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
New build is due very soon anyway. Would wait for that and use the method I mentioned with open gapps pico.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] krGemini:
Reverted back to 17/8 build after waiting much for newer build from AOSP due to personal likings dislikngs. In my experiences, the AOSP Rom is also much smoother.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Totally agree. If you switch to AOSP and don't miss the customisations that have gone, stick with that. Otherwise, stick with this :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Razoth:
allright, had a day to test governors on intelliactive core 0 and 1 and conservative 2 and 3. music playback is smoother on Awesomeplayer, other then some little sound issues, nowhere near the level it was before.... but still unusable on nuplayer.... which is really weird, i am still going to test aosp and slim over the weekend, maybe even imperial, just to get an overview of whats available for this device, maybe report back again xD.... other then that maybe there will be an update and a fix for it, couse i dont think its hardware issues....

thanks for the help guys.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] hilltopper06:
I resolved my bluetooth issues by dirty flashing the rom again and then flashing the pico gapps. The normal ones must conflict somehow.

I did noticed that the SCH-i545L has no audio support on this rom though, so I had to switch back to GPE.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] benjamen50:
The only thing stopping me from using 17/08(or 08/17) build is that it can't run twitch without crashing so many times on a video. So I'm sticking with the previous build. I guess it doesn't hurt updating to the latest modem.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gkkovacs:
Yeah, and who asked you to be the forum police? Are you moderators? Don't you have anything else to do with your free time?

I mean it IS entirely useless to ask for an ETA from people who develop in their free time... but one thing that's even more useless is posting wiseass replies to these questions, and I clearly see how my own post fares here :)

[MENTION=3835154]gkkovacs[/MENTION]: Given the choice between a gentle reminder for a reasonably new poster and reporting his post, a gentle reminder does far more, and it doesn't take up the already limited time of the moderator staff. I don't know about you, but I would rather we police ourselves instead of having the moderators do it for us on such minor issues as asking for an ETA.

As a moderator, but not on this site, I appreciate it when posters police themselves. It makes my duties easier to manage.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gkkovacs:
The fact that you even bothered to reply to this means:

- you very much like lecturing others, yet have no capacity for criticism (don't start teaching, kids will hate you)

- you take yourself way too seriously and have no sense of humour

- the quality of this thread is deteriorating fast, now that we have no new release for 6 weeks

All of that makes the post asking for an ETA all more relevant... [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION] please release something, people are visibly going crazy without a new build to chat about! :D

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
Kind of with you mate on that one. The forum was really created as a serious outpost for devs so has always (rightly i suppose) taken a serious tone and been lacking in humour somewhat. Having said that I like to think some geeks can be a bit easier going and capable of some banter... Me being one of them :D

Incidentally have rechecked the rules and while 2.3 covers replying in a self-righteous manner, the one covering ETAs seems to be absent :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
For my part in the Drama, I would like to issue an apology. It was not meant to start anything. I could have stated things a little more nicely.

I am not a developer, I can't code, nor do I have the patience. I do understand that it can be tedious and take many hours to bring something together. I also know that many of the developers here do this on there own and do not earn a regular salary from this.

I have been here for many years and started using custom software on phones before Android was released. In return for the work, yes it is work, that the developers put in so we can have these works of art I was also asked, some years back, to show a couple things to show my appreciation to and respect for those who develop for us.

1) Leave the drama at home. This is a developer site, nothing more. If you can help then do so.

2) Since many do this and are not paid, donate if you can. This doesn't necessarily mean money every time, either. There may be an issue that is readily repeatable by you. Explain it Clearly and PROVIDE a Logcat.

3) If something isn't working and you have a workaround or a FIX, share it with everyone and be descriptive so we get it right. A good example would be APN edits so MMS works properly. Maybe contact a dev as well. It helps everyone.

4) And, finally. I was always asked and told a long time ago to not ask for ETAs, ever. If you read through many of the different threads for various ROMs you will see this reenforced many times. The developers can be very busy. The thread is active because users and the developers post in it. Since the developers post you know there is active development on their part. They may even say something like:

"We have a new release almost ready but we need to do some internal testing before it goes public. We don't know when that will be, it could be " X" number of days or so. However, we will not make the public announcement and release until it is ready"

5) Be thankful and show gratitude for what is given here. Where else can you get something like this at little or no cost??

6) Do Not ask for ETAs. Ever. Builds will be released when ready, not a moment before.

#6 may sound harsh but I had to be schooled, too. I was told this exact statement a couple times and someone finally explained this to me. And for what it's worth. One of the developers made a comment very similar to the quoted one in item #4 recently. Since it is not released yet it obviously isn't ready for us yet, so be patient. Imagine how cluttered a development thread could be or bogged down a developer could get if there were hundreds or even thousands of users asking for ETAs. We can keep them busy enough asking how to do something and reporting bugs with logcats for them to look at.

This group of developers is one of the most awesome I have seen. If a release is coming, they usually let us know. If they are taking a vacation (which they deserve just like anyone else), they let us know. They even tell us about when they will be back! If they have hardware issues, they let us know AND even ask if WE can help.

Again, I offer my apology where it is needed.
