About camera

Know issue

Camera doesn't start due to some ION allocation failures.

I posted logcat here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64823148&postcount=137

Alberto96 Github https://github.com/Alberto96?tab=activity

I believe that the correction should be located in this file https://github.com/GearCM/android_device_samsung_i9500/blob/cm-12.1/hal/camera/CameraWrapper.cpp

Alberto may be busy, but some people with Java knowledge and ROM compilation can also collaborate

For users experiencing battery drain.

This is the solution:

-Go back to an official touchwiz rom

-when the charge is at 15%, put the phone in flight mode, put it in silent mode and reduce the luminosity the lowest possible.

-enter the code *#0228# and click start

-then kill all apps running in the backround and plug the phone to the charge and don't use it untill it reaches 100%

-finally restart your phone

Can anyone explain to me why exynos device is buggy ...like it take a long time to release and camera discontent and voib calls and another bugs
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
It's because Samsung doesn't release documentation about their exynos processors or something. I'm not a developer, but I've heard that they're just difficult to develop for because of some stuff Samsung does or doesn't do.

I'm sure Alberto knows all about this.

[Galaxy S 4 General] zozoz13:
Just wipe cache & dalvik cache before/after you flash (update) the ROM if you don't want your data loss. Remember, do a dirty flash will impact the stability.

And updating Recovery wouldn't wipe any of your data.

Issues faced:

1. "Cannot connect to camera" issue. Deal breaker. Sorry for reporting it if it has been reported earlier but as per me "Cannot connect to camera" was resolved.

2. Huge battery drain even when device is off. Its not awake but still drains like 12 % overnight. My battery is brand new.

3. No audio in calls. Happens infrequently but annoying.

4. Audio quality is bad. Tried V4A installation but could not install it because of the busybox error which was mentioned by some other user a few posts back.

I have been huge fan of Alberto's work but gotta return to touchwiz. TW is laggy as hell but is rock stable and battery backup with latest version is just admirable.

Hello! I'm new in this forum and I want to ask something about the installation of this rom

1. I9500XXUHOG2 Modem (Flashable ZIP) and Partial I9500XXUHOL1 Odin Upgrader (includes OL1 Bootloader & OG2 Moden) are not mentioned in the installation procedure. When should I flash these?

2. "Flash latest Stock ROM Odin package using latest Odin3 Flasher and standard (not Chinese) .pit file." What is the importance of flashing these since the file is huge? What happen if I skipped these?
[Galaxy S 4 General] krasCGQ:
1. Skip this if you have both of them installed. To ensure the best compatibility, you could flash the partial upgrader to update your modem and bootloader.

2. This step should be done if even when clean install doesn't help you on your issues. This will bring back you to stock, completely.

Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD
[Galaxy S 4 General] krasCGQ:
Let me answer parts I quoted.

4. AOSP behavior.

5. Is your SD card has enough space?

B. Go to Synapse, click Understood, tap three-dot, select Settings, and untick Stability check.

C. Just lower the settings in Synapse to reduce echo.

F. Just flash TWRP recovery and start back, no need usage of CF Auto-Root.

G. If you want to clean completely your system (I'll do it together with NAND Erase All option). Flash it together with stock firmware.

H. Do a hard restart by holding power button for 10 seconds instead of pulling out battery. It does the same.

I. Everything.

[Galaxy S 4 General] juan_rugge:
Hey guys, is anyone of you having problems with Wifi? I can't use it because drain me battery, about 1% every 7 min.. i have disabled all the sucking options like always search, etc.

I also try to set in synapse, power saving management to 1 and 2, wifi scan interval to 150 and 300. With this last one, wlan_wd_wake reduce significantly, but the battery drain its still there. Changing wifi band from auto to 2.4Ghz also didn’t work.

Mobile data is super good.

Another problem with battery drain is mediaserver. After playing music or video in loudspeaker or headphones, mediaserver keep consuming battery. It happen in stock player and google player, but at list greenify kills the google app and drain stop.

Do you have any suggestions?

I'm loving this room, is so fluid and battery has got better, even in full time 3G.

Cant flash GearRecovery on TWRP

Hello alberto

1.I have flashed latest TWRP 3.0.0 using Odin3

2.Booted into recovery mode using 3 buttons combo (TWRP booted )

3.Flashed latest GearRecovery (on TWRP) | Install => GearRecovery 20160220 (Flashable ZIP)=> swiped to flash

4.Rebooted into recovery mode using TWRP on-screen buttons | Home => Reboot => Recovery |

5.From hear GearRecovery should boot but it doesn't and TWRP boots instead

Why doesn't GearRecovery boot ?! Am idoing something wrong ?!

please help me

tnx for your support
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
It means that your TWRP Recovery doesn't work properly. Use Odin to flash GearRecovery.

Just as an info, you know that GearRecovery is based on TWRP so it will have the same UI?

I suggest you to flash GearRecovery from Odin.

2. GearCM is far more better than Official CM. A lot of fixes included in GearCM. Honestly, Official CM now is more stable than before. But, still can't beat GearCM. Just try it and judge yourself which is the best one.
