a) May i use ClockworkMod recovery instead of TWRP?

b) Skip F2FS conversion can cause issues ?

thanks.

Modem update help

Hi, I did a clean flash to 25 July build. It seems my mobile network signal is always red. I have used all the ROMs earlier, did not face this problem. Though it's already mentioned that bootloader & modem update is mandatory, I did not do that & it worked fine. May be to make this build work finally I need to update these. I need to know which modem & bootloader to use. Also need to know exactly how to update these. Can anyone please help me in this regard? My model is SGH-M919 & baseband is M919UVUFNK2. Thanks in advance for your help.

If you look in the forums you will find much information you need.

A explain here we take a long time - You have to be root to install a custom rom that comes first, custom recovery, that the second and from there there are many tutorials.

I must've worded it badly. I'm already running an older version of this rom, I'm asking how far back to stock I have to go... Do I have to flash the stock rom? Or will a factory reset on this current rom and a wipe of the caches etc work fine?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smashtie:
Just checked, and mine works just fine (i9505).

Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but are you on a 5.1 bootloader/modem/non-hlos? If the compass device drivers are in with these, like the camera drivers, then perhaps this could be the issue. I'm on I9505XXUHOD7, and I flashed the bootloader, non-hlos and then the modem (twice to get it to stick).

Watch out though if you care about the warranty bit!

But this is just a guess.

What is this option on stweaks ? Google play service.... Workaround ?

Is it useful or dangerous ?

Thx
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
That's the kitkat modem. Don't think there is an lp version for that model yet.

Ok. I did not understand well, sorry.

In Recovery, do a wipe cache, dalvik, data, system and install the latest ROM again with the Gapps.

This is called a clean installation, in this case it is necessary, if you come from 01/07.

Installation is dirty when only do a wipe cache and Dalvik. With the latest ROM you have to do clean install.

Regards.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] r0ckarong:
Yeah that did it, couldn't figure out to do this because there was only a "Clear Cache" button but when you go to "Manage Space" there is an actual option to remove the data. Had to log in a few apps after that but now it seems to work fine. Thanks a bunch.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Yeah, actually I am. Using a clean flash. I try to send an MMS and data no longer works and it doesn't send. This bug has been around for ages, and I did get MMS working at one point by fiddling around but it seems to be back. The good news is that if I send an MMS on Wi-FI, it does work, but it still breaks mobile data and takes a while to come through if I'm sending one to myself (10 mins or so). I'm with Vaya mobile (optus). Any idea on a fix? I'll send through a bug report now.

Hello,

I clean flashed the last version from the 16 June one, and i noticed the filesystem was ext4, i tried to change it to f2fs, and it remained stuck at booting, so i returned to recovery and reflashed the same version again without doing anything else and it got back to ext4, it booted up, everything was a lot faster than the 16 June one, but i noticed the animations for example the quick settings panel, app drawer etc were all choppy, and i wonder if this happens because i did the thing above, and if someone knows a solution. I am using the micro gapps in the OTA app. I hope you can help me, thanks.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MarkR91:
Yeah I assume it's the same problem I'm having. It's something to do with the way the rom sends these mms'. I'm fairly sure it's not the apns because I've tried every combo I've found on the net, what telstra told me to use etc. Doesn't work. Maybe antares will have a fix or some more info.

I tried to submit a bug report... and it just sat there spinning its wheels, not doing much. Had to reboot for it to go away. Consider this a bug report of the bug report. I wouldn't call this ROM stable quite yet, perhaps maybe a release candidate. Still a couple of little things to fix.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ralfbergs:
What you wrote absolutely makes sense. But then I would expect from that time on sending/receiving MMS should always work, right?

Unless, of course, there is something that makes your APNs disappear. In which case you should be able to confirm that they've actually disappeared or been modified.

Have you ever seen such a thing?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fryandlaurie:
Dirty flash (can't blame a fella for trying) coming from July 1st version failed with repeated Google Play Services and Whisper Push crashes. Tried to delete data of Play Services and Whisper Push but the FCs kept on coming. So I rebooted to recovery and flashed the recommended GApps Micro Package. Rebooted again but the crashes only increased in number so I reverted to my nandroid backup of previous version.

Having read many more posts in this thread about problem-free flashes after a full wipe I reluctantly started to backup everything with Titanium Backup. Even with TB it usually takes me seven to eight hours to reconfigure everything the way I like it so I did not take this step lightly.

Having backed up everything I rebooted to recovery and wiped system, data, cache and dalvik. I then flashed the ROM and GApps and rebooted the system. This time I got a lot of bluetooth FCs with accompanying failure of Wifi (as reported by a few other people in this thread).

So this is what I did to make it work (resembles a solution posted earlier in this thread):

- rebooted back into recovery

- wiped everything again

- then flashed only the ROM

- booted the system and tested it for a few minutes (no apparent problems)

- rebooted back into recovery

- flashed the GApps Micro Package

- rebooted the system and tested it for a few minutes (no apparent problems)

- rebooted into recovery

- flashed SuperSU

- rebooted system once more

I haven't had any problems since performing these steps. Bluetooth and Wifi work fine, connection to my smartwatch is stable. I do not know why it should make a difference whether to flash the ROM and GApps at the same time or perform a reboot in between but it sure did.

I really hope this was the last time a full wipe was required for this iteration of the ROM. As much as I love the speed and all the additional features (Hello status bar network speed display!) it is also a real drag to set the whole system up again.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a more efficient way to set things up? I use Titanium Backup to restore apps and settings but that does not always work. I restore only downloaded apps fearing problems when restoring system app settings on a new ROM so those need to be configured manually. Wifi settings, bluetooth pairings, smartwatch connection and custom watch faces, Philips Hue connection, network document scanner connection, apps with external data, widgets, WhatsApp, Photos, app shortcuts for Nova launcher ,Tasker scripts, etc, etc. That's a lot of stuff to set up again.

Or maybe I am just to obsessive with my phone configuration :D

Anyway, that is nothing compared to the time AntaresOne and the other members of the JDC development team have invested into this ROM. So thank you for this IMHO best S4 ROM ever.

I read ext4 is faster than f2fs for read-only partitions, and that it would be a better format for the SYSTEM partition.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] droidblitz:
so just flashed the latest build and did this

======================================

On TWRP:

Download and install this TWRP version: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763625

Wipe->advanced wipe

Select cache->change or repair file system->f2fs

Select data->change or repair file system->f2fs (Warning: internal storage is formatted, make a backup of your personal data before doing this!)

Select system->change or repair file system->f2fs

and flash the rom zip....

Went back to recovery to check system and its back to EXT4

It's best to leave system in EXT4. As system is readonly, EXT4 should have a better performance than f2fs.

For me Cache and Data correctly stayed F2FS but system was reverted to Ext4 it appears. Not going to reinstall this from scratch now :/

Helpthread

I've searched the forums but I could not find a help thread for this ROM.

I've got a problem with restoring apps,configs etc. with titanium backup.

worked fine with previous builds but with the newest I miss several apps

and configs after a clean install...

I Don't know what to do. Did a Nandroidbackup, so I could restore

but I want to use the newest build.

help please! (maybe point me to the right thread) :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
I have been through this, too. What I have found is when a clean install is required, as with this update, TiBu is pretty much useless. The only thing that does not cause issues is to restore the data only for messaging. If I use TiBu to restore data for many other apps things get weird.

As for installing this build goes what seems to work best is to clean install the ROM, boot and allow it to settle, reboot to recovery, wipe cache/davlik, flash Gapps, reboot, setup and allow to settle. This process, although cumbersome, has been mentioned several times.

Once everything settles down after the second boot I restored all apps from Google Play and set them up fresh. Currently everything is smooth as silk.

I have discovered a new bug today in the July 25 build (first release). On previous builds I could connect to a PC via the USB and the device would connect as a MTP device. I could then copy files to/from internal or external storage at will. I could also create delete files/folders at will from the PC as well.

Today I attempted to transfer a number of image files from my PC to external storage and the operation failed. I found that I can only copy files to internal storage when connected as an MTP device. If I want to copy to external storage I have to change the connection type to Mass Storage. I am also unable to connect to a PC in a manner that allows me to copy files/folders from/to internal/external storage while connected to a PC.

BusyBox & other issue

I clean flashed the last version of this room, open gapps-arm 5.1 micro and I've got a problem with sending SMS and MMS.

I can receive SMS but I can't send it, service MMS not working. I deleted all APN's and set up the stock one but without success. MMS service never working included previously rooms (I live in Poland/T-mobile).

Additionally when I open STWeaks and try update time I see information "Your BusyBox is not supported! Update to latest."

When I try update AD-B I see "Your system don't have WGET binary from my kernel, reinstall my kernel"

I don't know what is going on.

Any idea?
