Thought that was the memory bug, but it's just another one as it seems... I also found it to be more severe with Alucard Kernel, and better with KT. Sadly, KT doesn't offer RAM usage controls, so I can't tell what makes it better.

Compiling the build, result in audio not compiled... so Dev has changed the audio part with CM12 prebuilt ones... these craps can be related to this "trick" to complete the build... but dev can be more precise...

Bug report.

1. The dialer isn't working. Sometimes FC all the system other times there is a delay in response and the sound is awful. The result? You can't make a call.

2. STweaks isn't work. It says no kernel support as @churchey360 has already said

3. The app installation from ext SD is confusing the user. At the end says that the package must close (FC) but the apps installed normally

4. Can't use the mp3 ringtones from the Ringtone folder. Must change the format to Ogg (in my case) to play

That's the bugs for the moment for me... anyone else?

---------- Post added at 00:10 ---------- Previous post was at 00:08 ----------

Too much. For me it took about 3 min.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] GrStorm:
Changed the recovery for antares twrp and converted the partitions to f2fs, and installed it again. Still taking too long to boot :(

EDIT: Nevermind... it booted :D:D:D:D Rom is very VERY slow here, could it be f2fs? i was running RR before installing this and it was very fast, could it be the rom then?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
First impression after a few hours: Perfectly smooth, blazing speed, not a single FC or other hickup for me. Great work [MENTION=5464206]AntaresOne[/MENTION], thank you!

5.1 is quite nice actually, especially the fact that the LED now works in "don't disturb" mode is an improvement. :)

It was working up to this afternoon
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] GalaxyS4_Lollipop:
Flashed, working better than any rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bobyracer2:
Flashed it and i was using it for 3 days, and i'm unable to provide a logcat but like the optimised builds of cm12 my touchscreen won't respond sometimes when i woke up the device :(

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mwilder817:
Unfortunately it was close to 30 minutes. Like I said, my recovery takes awhile too. Both are much faster from powered off state. I don't know why. Clean install for sure. I don't have problems that a lot of others have, so maybe this is my cross to bear. It's weird.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] rebel1699:
I cant even imagine what would come close to causing a 30 minute boot time. Since it also effects recovery, have you tried to odin a newer bootloader (if youre behind some or yours is having issues) to see if that resolves it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mwilder817:
It was just the first boot after clean flash. It boots pretty quickly now. For all this goodness I'm willing to wait on the first boot.:)

Both ROM and recovery are both faster from powered off state though.

Thanks for the help. I forgot to enable root -.-. Now I did some changes in STweaks than saved my profile, then I tried to load 2 different profiles, but both times all settings reset to default after the program restarts. Tried changing just 1 setting and saving it and loading the profile, still it went to default after the restart, am I doing something wrong?

Hi all,

I've set a night profile to basically disable all the connections, stop sync and a switch to 2g.

Small bug I found. Last night I turned on the flashlight from the notification bar and used it for about 10 minutes. I went to turn it off but the flashlight button had disappeared. I tried removing the button and re-adding it from the settings with no change. Reboot fixed the problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fazi78:

I'm using a clean flash and am having the same problem. It was OK at first but after little while it becomes extremely frustrating. Can't recommend this ROM at the moment.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gkai:
I have set oom to aggressive and swappiness to 0 in stweaks memory settings....seems to help with low memory lagginess...I'm quite satisfied with the rom, even if I had a bad crash at one time (reboot, then Bluetooth constant fc...had to wipe caches and reinstall, and lost Wi-Fi password and a few settings).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] benjamen50:
I'm starting to wonder if people even bother scrolling down from the OP's first page and looking for FAQ's / Tips. Anyway. Look down there and it'll tell you how to get it working.

Also if you want, click the button down below for the solution.

STweaks shows "no kernel support", what to do? Go in Developer options and enable root.

It's weird how I used to have heat up issues when playing games, but now it's all gone. Maybe because winter? My phone don't even heat up much anymore...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Wow, this seems to make a pretty big difference for me.

Edit: Been fiddling with it for some time, definitely improved. I then changed it back to default and the heavy lag returned, including FCs. The memory management is definitely messed up in this ROM... No idea why though, don't see why this needed to be fiddled with in the first place.

I'll continue to use over the next few days and report back if I experience issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gkkovacs:
Instead of taking on the task of policing others that no one asked of you, why not learn to read in plain English and study the thread more carefully?

- The OP actually "strongly suggested" clean flash, it was not a requirement for this release

- Several others have already reported the same issues who had actually wiped data, so my report is actually useful data
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smashtie:
Is your phone still OK? I've tried:

1) dirty flash to 1st Jul image.

2) full wipe to 1st Jul image.

3) wipe and switch to f2fs.

4) clear bt share cache and data.

5) reflashed the same rom image and wiped dalvik because someone suggested that

BT hasn't crashed today, yet, but it keeps glitching (little audio blips like it can't keep up). *sad face*

Oooo, any hints when that might roll off the presses?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] TessellatedGuy:
Hmm, even if I'm new, I'm not dumb. I enabled root from dev options FIRST after flashing the rom. I don't get how people wont read the FAQs. Atleast I'm not one of them....

I don't want to loose all again, is there an adb fix for this issue?

Kind Regards

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MikeWjF:
Try dirty flashing an older build of this ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Undefined Origin:
I did a clean install last night w/ full F2FS (coming from GPE Rom) and had the "black screen" after first reboot and then all subsequent reboots. Factory reset/ re-flashed ROM and it's been good all last night and so far today. I haven't tried bluetooth/screen casting yet, but will tonight.

Smooth and fast, AnTuTu showed around 31k fwiw. If this version isn't "optimized" I can't wait to try the next release!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Bon_Bon:
F2FS id good for cache and data, it improves performance and lifespan of the storage, but ext4 is better for system performance wise, because it's a read only partition

Hope I helped :3
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Andycar:
Wow, nice. And this fix really seems to work, thanks.

I tested just now: erased that folder from recovery and boot normally after black screen.

Why

Why not i9515?

i have this phone about 2 years and no one can get a proper root or alternative android 5 or 5.1

whats wrong? no one can get into it?

Someone help. :(

i have official android 5.0.1 installed. i want 5.1
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Rooting I believe is possible using CF AutoRoot, but there are hardware differences between the I9505 and the I9515. Those differences are sufficient to render the ROM non-functional on the I9515.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
My recommendation is to stick with stock, maybe root it; unfortunately there is no love for your device. Trade it in for something else if you want 5.1.

Edit: I do wonder what the actual differences are... probably the odd lib here and there, I'm sure someone clever enough could probably build a supplementary flashable zip that would make this ROM work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I think the main problem is none of the developers have one. According to threads in the S4 forums here, the digitizer and WiFi module are different. The person installing an I9505 ROM on the I9515 would have no touch capability and no WiFi.

To resolve this and have the ROM function correctly someone needs to provide the device to the developers.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Zbiba1:

---------- Post added at 07:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 AM ----------

Thanks for reply

But why i9515 is expensive than other s4 models ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
As you verified, at least 3 functions are broken.

This highlight that 9515 is not a variant of the same hardware, but a different phone (as 9506 for example).

No device to develope, no chances to have something working.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
It was actually cheaper but clearly not as popular as it was marketed as the 'value edition'
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] v00d007:
But it isn't (at least in Europe). The 9515 model is a lower budget version of the 9505 with cheaper components. The only "value" of it is to give Samsung some more profits as they can't get a better price than 300€ anymore for a 2 year old model...

9515-> tough luck [emoji38]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Anyway back to the i9505... Definitely improved after changing swappiness to 0 in stweaks but I am still having random slowdowns. This is a kernel related issue. I could take logs but not sure if they would help? I do get the odd "system UI has stopped responding" messages though.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AntaresOne:
Is not question of being clever or cloven, as you can see I am a RD and this automatically states that I have the necessary knowledge (otherwise how do you think it was possible for me to get it?), but without the device to develop and test things... Do you think it's easy?

I analyzed an i9515 motherboard, the only difference are in BT/WiFi because it uses two separated ICs which are different against the BT+WiFi combo IC found in i9505.

I tried myself the i9505 screen (including the touch screen) on i9515 and works at least with TouchWiz firmware (it's the only one I tried) without any mod. The touchscreen IC is the same of i9505.

Unfortunately that device was of a customer, so was impossible for me to use it as development device.

If anyone wants to donate one or more devices for development (not necessarily new, also used or malfunctioning which is not BT nor WiFi is very good) feel free to do it, but take in mind that we're not asking for, we're happy as we are now and and adding support to our ROMs/kernels and luckly also in official CM would be great for you, this doesn't change our life :)

We will still continue as we're going, giving you great products without asking anything.

My experience is the same.

p.s. I saw another ROM with exactly the same symptom:

https github.com/MatthewBooth/JFLTE-GPE/issues/20
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jackal992:
Hi! I'm sorry I'm so late with my answer, but I really thought it was a rom-related problem of this rom (the black screen during calls) because with the touchwiz rom few days before everything was working perfect.

Eventually I installed an app to test the functionality of the proximity sensor and I found out that it was working only the first time, after I hovered my hand over it once it stayed locked in the "near" value, never coming back to the "far" value after I had removed the hand. This explains why during calls after I placed the phone near my ear there was no way to turn on the display unless the person on the other side ended the call.

Then I tried your suggestion of recalibrating with adb the proximity sensor (method 2 of the site you suggested) and magically now everything is working fine. Then it's not a dialer-related problem of the rom, but a simple problem with the calibration of the proximity sensor! Thank you again!

I'm wondering if there is a method to increase the quality of the recording of the microphone, and above all the volume. Recording my voice at 20 cm from my phone I can barely listen the words in the recording at maximum volume. Is there any way to improve this? Using another app I was able to increase the gain of the microphone but this leads to very noisy recordings!

Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] adry1988:
Its good for general use but when it comes to games it slightly overheats even on moderate demand games. 1hour of gameplay consumed 30% of battery life which seems a bit to much for a light ROM like this.

One game I tried didn't work. Game was called 'yesterday'. Can anyone confirm that?

I'm going to stick with this ROM for now and hope its going to get better.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] eTaurus:
Errrm...

Even if you would take away all the "unnecessary" parts of this ROM a game would nonetheless stress your CPU/GPU. The title of this thread is not "optimized for gaming".

It might be possible to tweak the kernel for games but I don't think any of the developers is interested in this. Maybe there's another kernel tweaked for gaming out there that would work with this ROM.

And depending on the game I would say that 30% drain is quite a good number. Played a game on stock 4.2.2 that drained my battery even more.

Request: Show date in status bar

Here's a request - in many ROMs one can place the date in the status bar, along with the time.

This option is not available in this ROM. I cannot override this setting even using Gravity Box. This is a first in any ROM I've used, so it must be something in the ROM itself.

BTW - I just donated to AntaresOne and Romhut. There's now way I could use my phone for work with just plain Touchwiz, regardless of apps. Keep it up!

Does the ambient display work?

Mine is not working

Thanks for the answers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Ambient display is working great here. Check your location settings.

Could be related to the general performance issues with this ROM. Mainly related to memory management. Few tips on this over the last few days.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Maybe providing logs after the crash and giving informations on the app is more useful then asking if there is something in the rom that could make apps crash!

Sorry, but we are a bit tired to read just general complain and really few users that give logs to help devs on searching the reason if there is one.
