This is my first message so please pardon me if I am committing some mistake. I recently updated to 0922 binary. Almost flawless, camera crashes once in a while but managable. Though I am having problem with battery in this release. Coming from touchwiz, this was my first custom ROM install. Rooted, installed twrp and installed binary + GApps mini package. My wifi is on all the time but battery is draining like crazy. With touchwiz i was getting around a day but here I am not getting more than 6 hours even with same usage.

I installed wakelock detector and found out Google app to be the top wakelock trigger. Facebook and whatsapp were also there so I uninstalled facebook as well. Should I remove google app as well?

Sorry if I am being too naive or if it seems as I didnt do enough search. I tried searching a bit but couldnt find better solution.

Edit: Forgot to mention, battery drain in idle mode is too much as well. Had battery at 100% at night with wifi and data off, and in the morning it was at 5%. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] mukeshbaidwan:
1. Again make a clean install of the latest build. Clean install will remove your gapps.

2. Install HDPI MINI gapps for 5.1.1 Lollipop (this wont have any google app or google now launcher). You can google the link.

This helped me with the battery drain. I get 3 + hours of screen On time and my battery is 2 years old. There is no idle mode battery drain for me.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S 4 General] brunotux:
Running very smooth.

Can you enable daydream options in display settings in the next build. Thanks ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
No. Read the whole thread if you want to know the reason ;)

Zip Error Latest Build

Hi Guys. Tried to install latest build but saying zip error like many others here.

Just letting you know.

Thanks for all your work.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mukeshbaidwan:
Download using a download manager (eg. FDM). It may get stopped in between, just refresh the link by copying the download link again from the renderserver page to the download properties of the file in FDM. then press start. Do this every time it fails it will resume the download.

At the end of the download do an integrity check. Its there in FDM(right click the file and do an integrity check). MD5 is there on the renderserver link.
[Galaxy S 4 General] kushpel:
Running 0922 bulid, very stable and smooth, great perfomance. No random reboots so far, no "insert sim card" errors, no app crashes, awesome battery life on a 2 year old battery. Clean install + format data, just in case.. Camera won't take pictures in whatsapp from time to time, but i can live with it.

Alberto96, you are the MAN!

i'll definetely donate as soon as i can.

Thanks for bringing this sammy crapphone back to life, and keep up the great work!
[Galaxy S 4 General] zorlak:
Guys, did anyone tried to make Skype calls with the last builds? Is it working now?

To be honest that's the last thing that prevents me from using this ROM, as I'm using Skype for work almost everyday.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Known Bugs will answer your question.
[Galaxy S 4 General] zorlak:
I know, but I was just hoping ; )

Do you think you can fix that audio HAL issue sometimes soon, [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION]? No pressure, just asking.
[Galaxy S 4 General] kushpel:
Whatsapp voip works, just answered a call) no workarounds needed.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
As far i remember only outgoing VOIP calls aren't working without that workaround, but incoming VOIP calls are working fine.

About the fix, actually it is something that i'm not able to fix.

Damn, I can't live without Skype : (((

Corrupted ROM

I compared the valid 0928 ROM that I downloaded via OTA to the invalid one downloaded via PC.

It turns out the corrupted file lost the last 6 bytes and gets padded with 3 CRLFs at the beginning of the file.

If I removed those first 6 bytes from the corrupted file and append the missing 6 bytes to its end, then the MD5 checkcum matches the expected value.

I attach those last 6 bytes for those who do not want to redownload the whole ROM again and are comfortable using "dd" and "cat" to remove and append bytes.

[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] sins Android 6.0 is going to be released next week are you going to start development on AOSP or wait for Cm13 ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mukeshbaidwan:
Is my battery faulty?? Please advise.

My battery shows sudden decline in charge left while I am using the phone. Also there are sudden increases/spikes in charge left sometimes(this is not there in the screenshot). The spikes happen own their own. Please check the screenshot.

Please mind that I always calibrate battery after doing an install so that no previous data is there for battery stats. I install only weekly.

This has been happening for a while.

So is it time i should buy a new battery?? or is there something I can do about it without spending money? Please advise because if other people are not facing it, this should not be ROM related.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jatinderpalplaha:
Good yes i also want to ask this question...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
CM13 or nothing ;)

As you can see your phone isn't awake, so the problem is your battery.
[Galaxy S 4 General] zeko_1992:
i asked you about add keyboard samsung to rom but you said nope, why ??

i saw thread about add keyboard samsung but i didn't try so i asked you why you don't want add keyboard samsung ??
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Because this isn't a TouchWiz based ROMs. You won't see anything from Samsung here, neither on CM.

If you don't agree, switch to another ROM ;)

This is AOSP.
[Galaxy S 4 General] zeko_1992:
ahaa .. understand now

anyway i love your rom and i keep it :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
How? Just downgraded to old and outdated audio driver, nothing special neither useful.

[Galaxy S 4 General] gauravpanthari:
Didnt come online before, so couldnt thank you for helping me. I removed facebook and disabled OK Google without flashing another version. And now battery gives me a great SOT of 3+ hours with wifi/3g on all the time. Thank you for helping.

Thanks to the developer(s) whose constant efforts keep the build up. Saved me lot of money as I was thinking of going for a new phone because of huge battery drain in original ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Unfortunately it doesn't fix anything regarding WiFi channels, but it could fix your random problems.

It won't work.

20150517 Test Build: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952605893

[Galaxy S 4 General] Shtooka:
usb charging

Alberto95, why the same rom like as aicp 4.4.4 or euphoria 5.x.x charged 2,5 hours from usb, and others ~5? When i use usb tethering on euphoria - still full charged ~3 hours, and for example gear 5.1.1 - ~6 hours?

I try transplant kernel from last build gear 4.4.4 to aicp and still get 2,5 hours, but on build gear - charging 5 hours... => kernel independense. Also at euphoria. What feature in this roms do it? Sorry for my english )
[Galaxy S 4 General] Theocoria:
Great job

Hi Alberto96,

You are doing an awesome job, thanx dude. Good luck with the exams and hope to see this build going the distance, I like my i9500 but hate the stock roms, so this makes me very happy.

How to install CM Recovery Gear? There is a video tutorial?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jehnsy93:
Can I install this ROM using Philz touch latest version? or is it neccessary to install Gear Recovery?

Because I only know how to install .tar files and the gear recovery is in a .zip file.
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Philz or TWRP (my favorite) is fine. No need to use Gear CM recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Uhm...this is an interesting. I'll give you a specific answer after I do some tests.

Just install it using CWM/TWRP.

Yes, but the installation process won't be supported in case of problems.

Random reboot log

[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], My phone rebooted by itself. I attach the /proc/last_kmsg file that was captured after the phone restarted. There was a kernel panic, but I don't understand what the cause was.

For anybody, I use an app called Bootlog Uptime from Play Store. It will give you a notification when your device reboots, and it automatically backup the /proc/last_kmsg file to your sdcard. Maybe more of such log could help identifying the random reboot cause.
[Galaxy S 4 General] orcanmaktal:
My phone keeps restarting too.
[Galaxy S 4 General] braulio_holtz:
At least it's not just me, so any bugs. I noticed it and even thought the problem could be mine, I will install this app for more data when it does

---------------

Ah, the Play Services 7.5 is giving FC, is a problem that affects more devices, who go through it, do the downgrade version or disable location
[Galaxy S 4 General] joaopossamai:
Something sorta strange has been happening after the 05/17 update, Android OS, Android System, gpsd and Media Server are causing a huge battery drain: my device lost 30% battery in 1 hour, no bluetooth, wifi or data connection were turned on (wifi scanning is off). See image below

Oh, I managed to fix the gpsd drain by disabling location, kinda of a bummer :/

Strange, none of these problems were present on the last build. I'm guessing this is CM's fault, as my friend running CM 12.1 on his N4 also had similar problems after installing newer CM builds. But, I still can't do anything but to wait for the next update.

Aside from this problem, I've relly nothing to complain about. The ROM is REALLY smooth compared to the last build, performance-wise I have no complaints. Oh, the camera launches pretty fast, too. Keep up the good work mate! :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] gylee:
[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], another random reboot happened. Attached is the last_kmsg file.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Were you facing random reboots on previous version?
[Galaxy S 4 General] fuser1337:
I flashed the 17/05 build over 9/05 build (didn't clear data) that's all.

I'm facing problems like screen going black randomly and when i press power button i see that white power menu. No way out expect a reboot.

Secondly i feel like smoothness is not so better than 9/05 build. Whereas so many people are posting that it is better and this makes me curious!! Is it because I didn't clear my data?

Thanks Alberto for the work!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
That's not the right way to fix a bug.

CM Sources bug.

It is too early to say it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Hello,

I just updated to build 28September and found a few strange things:

1) The update removed Google+ app and the Google clock/alarm app

2) after the update, I don't have permissions to copy a file into the /system/media folder with ES file explorer.

Anybody else knows what caused it? I would like get back the write permissions. I installed the removed apps already. Took me a while to find out which apps were removed.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
1) Google Apps related.

2) That's not something ROM related, you must be sure that ES File Explorer has root permissions and that /system has been mounted as RW.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mash20:
anyone try xposed with this rom

whats the best xposed for this rom ??
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Google apps related... I can accept. Not a big deal.

But I wonder about the explanation with ES file explorer permissions. It has root permissions. I can perform the same file actions successfully with the CM file manager but not with ES, so I doubt that it is a problem with mounting /system as RW. Even deleting ES file explorer and installing new didn't solve the issue.

I will restore my nandroid backup and install manually again. The current update was done with the OTA function.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Even if it won't work i can't help you, nothing has been changed regarding permissions, so it is app related. (probably a random bug)
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Hmmm....possible. Will see. I had this bug already once when I tried a previous build (the one with the mobile data problem). The following update was fine again. I will report after I manually updated (tomorrow). Thanks for your quick help so far
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Solved the problem. A full wipe did the trick. Wiping cache and dalvik was obviously not good enough. Just a huge effort for a simple update...

Well... At least it's running well now.
[Galaxy S 4 General] braulio_holtz:
I've had problems with reboots, which were more frequent with an old battery, then I switched stopped the problem, only restart if I disable l2_hsic wakelock. I believe it may be related apps also
[Galaxy S 4 General] NikoTrueno:
Hi there!

Been using the latest available release (20150928) for a couple of days now, and so far, it works really well.

I've had no more WiFi sleep related problems, and also haven't experienced any random reboots so far.

The only problem that I could find might be related to WiFi, because it seems to be eating more battery than usual.

I disabled the famous l2_hsic wakelock from Synapse, since that was the one that appeared to be eating battery, which improved battery life.

But now there is another culprit, wlan_rx_wake wakelock.

According to Wakelock Detector, that's the one keeping my phone awake. Even when there is no WiFi network connected, it keeps waking.

Tried changing WiFi Scan Interval to 60s from Synapse to see if improved, but it doesn't seems to make much difference.

Other than that, this ROM is excellent. Battery life is decent (as long as I remember to disable WiFi). And the smoothness is exquisite!!!

Thanks again for all the hard work put in this awesome ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Restore cm settings

Hello,

Since it seems that I run into problems every time when I update CM with only wiping cache and dalvik, I have to factory reset my phone with every update. At least that is the current status.

I can restore the previous installed apps with Titanium backup. No problem. The really time consuming work is to setup (and remember) all the system settings. This starts with simple screen timeout and goes to apps permissions. A restore of all the settings takes more than 1 hour and stretches the total time of an actually simple update to an almost unacceptable time span.

I saw that there is a system app called "cm settings" in Titanium backup. Not sure if this file contains all the required settings. Also as I never restore system files, this could be an action which causes similar problems to non-factory reset.

Does anybody know how to safely restore CM settings?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi bro, in September 16th build, tasker isn't working.

It never request supersu request, or it don't do simplest task that not required root permission.

I know it isn't latest build, i have limited internet package, is there any workaround?

Go to SuperSU, Settings, uncheck "Mount namespace separation" & "Tapjacking protection" and check "Enable su during boot" & "Trust system user".

This is the recommeded SuperSU config.

There's something wrong at your end. Clean install won't give you any bug except known ones.

You can use OTA Updates but there won't be a direct link, so it will just open an external link.

[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
I updated today to the latest build and everything seems to be fine so far. Thanks for your work.

But again - after the update process - I wasn't able to process actions in/system. Alberto assumed that it was not mounted as RW. Not sure what causes this. With a full wipe, it doesn't happen. Only when wiping only cache and dalvik after an update.

Anyway, I helped myself by typing the following terminal command:

Su

[Enter]

mount -o remount,rw /system

[Enter]

And so, /system is RW again.

Thanks for hint, Alberto

To install the rom stock, you install all options in ODIN (PIT file, Bootloader, CSC, etc.)?
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
I might be mistaken, but as far as I remember, the stock rom only had one file which is paved to "PDA". Unless you changed the pit before, you don't need to flash anything there.
