Stang, I'm not sure what you mean by saying that YouTube and Netflix work with screen mirroring, but you don't have a screen mirroring input on your TV. What process are using to share YouTube and Netflix to your TV? Do you mean chromecast or ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Probably Googlecast (w/o Chromecast).

Stang, just to clarify screen mirroring is having your cellphone's screen, on the tv screen. Navigating through menus and all (not just apps like Netflix and YouTube). I've done it with previous ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] slopenut1:
I can tell that casting old school with a MHL adapter does'nt work with Stang's fix zip. No Audio just the screen casts. But now my phone screen goes black with a light grey screen casting icon in the middle after i connect to the MHL. Never seen this before, usually both screens show the same thing when using a MHL. I tried Nuplayer and Awesomeplayer, two different kernels and opened Viper4 with the same no audio results.

Sorry no logcats during these test. I can not produce one on this Rom.

Glad that wifi direct works and we are getting closer.

I know Stang says he mirrors you tube and netflix but has not explained how?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Suggest the debloating on this ROM be the same as Muniz's light debloat script until the necessary files can be identified.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Netflix and youtube are still ways of screen mirroring just a different type. But yes i was talking about that way. My smart tv doesnt have the reg screen mirroring or wifi direct but has wifi so i cant test the actual phone screen on tv screen. That's why i need someones help to fix this as i cant test......... i can only do so much.

Here is what i am talking about

Watch "Screen Mirroring Setup: Samsung Galaxy S4 (Android 4.4.2) to Sony Bravia KDL-42W670A Smart TV" on YouTube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBBbG8HiI1s&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Please watch as he scrolls through the inputs to screen mirroring on the tv itself. Thats what i was referring to by input.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Ya i hear ya MDK thank god so i can run custom kernels
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] PrevailNow:
klabit,

You might want to wait for the new Nexus 5 (2015). If the leaked benchmark tests are legit, then it blows away the competition. For comparison, the next highest score was by the Galaxy S6 which scored 15,000 points lower on AnTuTu. I hope it comes with a removable battery and microSDcard. These were deal killers for me on the Nexus 6. Sorry, for the off-topic post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I think we are misunderstanding each other. :) Just to clarify - I am aware of and using the Screen Mirroring input on my two Sony TVs (big one in the family room, small one in the office/den). I set the TVs to the Screen Mirroring input and then connect (at least w/my wife's stock S4) using the Screen Mirroring option on my the phone.

What I thought you were saying was that you were sending content from your phone to your TV, and not using screen mirroring. Just curious how you were doing that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Oh no lol. Ya we were totally off. No way unless i got me a genie lol ??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
LOL...OK, back to work, and get me my Stang 2.0! :D :D :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Yeah, nexus 6 is a penny down plus a free car charger and dock... Birthday is the 26th so I might ask for that... s4 my mom will get(she likes it.. She took my s3 when she broke her phone, and fell in love with my phone when I got it).. Or maybe I can keep the s4 for fun and messing with ROMs
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
What mod is it that allows you to adjust the auto brightness? Stock seems to be on the dim side for my taste.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Wanam has this and it works well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
LOG CAT FIX. Go to system/etc/init.d/ and rename 98logcat to 98logcat.bak and reboot your phone. You can now get logs from your device in stang rom!!!! [MENTION=3074508]old&slow[/MENTION] thanks awesome find
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
OUCH!

LOL help i need some aloe vera for my back!!! Now that people can get logs should be easier to find out the issue :fingers-crossed:

But I plan on working on it tonight(not much left):D [MENTION=2169902]Redflea[/MENTION] you know you are one of my testers lol. Gonna give you a nice new Boot animation just for you!! lmfao
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] syintiphic:
Hey [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION], loving your ROM so far. I've been itching to get on Lollipop but not at the expense of locking my BL or losing root.

I'm having an issue with YouTube freezing after playing videos for a few seconds to approx a minute do you or perhaps anyone else using this ROM have any suggestions on fixing? I read the thread and did a search and only found the related post below.

[quote name="stang5litre" post=61344542]Haven't had any freeze ups let me know if it happens again. You can do a restore on apps. But not sure if TiBu will effect anything. Like don't update youtube. Some are having issues if you update.<br />

Thanks for your feedback. Please let me know about the freezes. <br />

Auto store works great!! Just don't do youtube lol <br />

YouTube is working fine here. Did not update when prompted to when I opened it. Will try cleaning the cache/dalvik. Will advise if there is another freeze. Guess I will set a backup alarm for tomorrow morning back to work Monday :(<br/>
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:

Thanks!!! If you uodated it thats your problem. It causes issues due to that app being mod'd to play while screen is off. Have you cleared cache? Also if necessary i can make a zip for you to get back on the reg youtube if nothing else. Easy fix. Gonna make it a flashable.mod for 2nd edition
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Stang, waiting for a custom boot animation as well :P

Still having that problem with the stock music player where music pauses for half a second and resumes normally for a bit. Different headphones and still the same problem...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] syintiphic:
Thanks for the quick reply. No I didn't update it, I followed your instructions in the OP. I'll try clear cache to see if that works. If you are able to post or PM me a flashable zip I would appreciate it. No rush. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Ill make one here in a few and PM it to you.

The 2nd Edition will be out soon making one with music player in it. So that should solve your problem. What animation we looking for?? Want me to surprise everyone hahahah
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
"Surprise me"

-Some movie I don't remember the name of
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
What app are you guys using to rename it? ES File Explorer isn't giving me the option to modify the extension. Could have swore I did this before in the past with ES.

---------- Post added at 02:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------

MikePeterMcCAbe, can you provide Stang with that script to look at?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MikePeterMcCabe:
Please list the steps you would have prior used to "screen mirror" to a Samsung TV.

It will help with troubleshooting .

---------- Post added at 07:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 AM ----------

You mean the debloating script?

Also, I find the by far BEST app to use for renaming, permissions, anything like that is "ROM Toolbox Pro" it is also the easiest and most user friendly in my opinion
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Yes and thanks, will try the app.

---------- Post added at 04:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 AM ----------

There was just an update to ES File Explorer, allowed me to change extension. What timing... After looking through the logcat, here is the crash event that occurs only when initiating or receiving a voice and/or video call in my Hangouts. Let me know if you prefer the entire logcat.txt.

I went ahead and attached the full logcat file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Let me look at this. Glad you attached the full thing as what you posted is just starting the actaul call.

I use rom toolbox Pro paid app. But you can use Root explorer which is free and same explorer toolbox comes from. Or es3file explorer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
By the way after you rename and reboot you can delete the .bak file as well. This has been already fixed in 2nd edition. Just thought worth mentioning.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
As far as script goes debloating levels usually are done in the "kitchen" . Time and testing will get it fixed. Just something simple just like the logcat. By the way file came from the kitchen and i didnt take out and we saw what that did. Plus Muniz_ri users a different tool as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Joe_6pak:
I really want to try this ROM, but I'm afraid I'm going to be reflashing in a couple of days. Should I hold off for a bit? I know I shouldn't ask for ETA's, but I can't help it. Will it be a real pain to upgrade to 2nd edition if I flash now?

Also, should I restore my apps from TiBu (coming from a Kitkat ROM), or let them download from the Play Store and update as necessary. Is Super SU and Xposed Installer in this ROM?

So many questions, so little time...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Joe,

depends... I'm assuming you are on MDK? SS has a lot more steps which is a pain... The ROM has root, not Xposed. Many don't recommend restoring from TiBu, especially coming from KK to LP but I did it anyway and have had no issues. Plus, I found this.

Up to you if you want to wait for Stang 2.0. I love the stability and performance of this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
Thanks, I searched there and finally found it under themes. I knew it was somewhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MikePeterMcCabe:
WIFI - DIRECT and SCREEN MIRROR

For those of you who are looking to get Wifi- Direct and Screen Mirroring to work, especially via the patch/fix that [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION] posted-

Unless you do the following steps, the patch will not work 100%

1) find all the "allshare" app folders in system/apps after flashing the fix

2) find the 2 "allshare" folders that permissions don't match the rest of the app folders

3) change the 2 non-matching folders permissions to rwxr-xr-x

4) then in each of those 2 folders that you changed-

Open up the folder and change the app inside so that the apps permissions are rw-r--r--

After all the permissions are changed to match, wifi direct are 100% working,

possibly screen mirroring will now work also, but I have no means to confirm that part.

5) make sure you thank the new guy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Unfortunately, all of my permissions, folder and apk, were already set properly, and screen mirroring doesn't work.

But thanks for the suggestion. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MikePeterMcCabe:
Didn't know if it would fix your screen mirroring.... just a shot in the dark. I know it fixed my wifi direct and screen mirroring onto my tab and Samsung smart tv.

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

Just curious- did you set the permissions yourself after flashing the fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I pushed the folders/files manually and set permissions, and then rebooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Did he post this fix openly here? Don't remember seeing it. Maybe permissions will be my solution for my hangouts fc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MikePeterMcCabe:
He posted it openly yes, some maybe 6 or 7 pages back I think. But this fix won't help your hangouts fc., did he give you a patch for hangouts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Have not heard back from Stang regarding hangouts. Was interested in fixing wifi direct and screen mirroring just to have it not broken.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] La Parca:
Hangouts fc

Hello, I was having fcs for voip/video calls in/out and remembered that one of first things I did was uninstall the Viper driver and app. After reinstalling Viper and one of the drivers hangouts works just fine. Have to install a driver the app itself is not enough but you don't have to enable Viper which I'm guessing is just as good add not having it installed. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Sorry everyone got a stomach bug and feel horid. Will catch up on the threads tonight.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Rest, relax, ignore us! Feel better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Hope! Will test later!

What he said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Great find!

Can confirm this worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
2nd confirmation! First time opening that Viper app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
3rd confirmation, also worked on my wife's phone(non-MDK).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnhaskell:
I'm having some trouble installing surge's kernel. I used the safestrap method to install the ROM and everything worked great. I used to NC5 flash to get back to safestrap recovery and then flashed surge's kernel. Rebooted, but it did not work. I saw the safestrap prompt (recovery/continue) and hit continue, but I was stuck on the Samsung logo before the phone rebooted itself into the ugly stock recovery. I was not able to get back into safestrap recovery so I had to pull out good ol' odin. Anybody know what I did wrong or what I should do differently to get surge's kernel on there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Dude, its been said many times in this thread, safestrap cannot flash

custom

kernels. You're going to have to odin back to NC5 and start over, you're soft bricked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnhaskell:
Alright dude, sorry. I searched key terms and couldn't find anything. Wasn't about to read through 88 pages. You answered my question though so thanks! Flashfire it is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
Its all good, just really easy to brick your phone, and wouldnt want to hear that happened just because "Wasn't about to read". SS and FF are stuck on stock kernels due to how they work.

For this specific ROM: I545_OC1_Stock_KERNEL_SafeStrap-Flashable.zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnhaskell:
So you're saying I can't flash a custom kernel unless I still have the MDK bootloader? I thought I read that FF could flash custom kernels somewhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
it can flash kernels, not unsigned (custom) ones, on this phone anyway.

I'm using the Google voice activated search, it will listen and search then it force closes. Any one have this issue?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
Stang you want a logcat for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] slopenut1:
I use 'ok google' daily and it would FC my workaround was to uninstalled the google app update and the force close issue went away.

Sorry it not a fix but might be a google app issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
This does work for the time being :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Interesting, I have had zero issues with Google search. Just did two instances in a row of okay Google searches and no issues there either.

Hello everyone sorry for the absence as i still kind of feel icky. But blah.... anyways. Will be working on it this weekend.

I Want To Thank Syin and Lawrence For Your Donations!!!!! They Are Much Appreciated!!

Only 2 people gave their screen names slopenut1 and Neffy27 if you dont want your 1st name posted on my OP Last chance. Will be updating!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
[MENTION=5574802]Neffy27[/MENTION] 2nd Edition you shouldnt have any issues with hangouts. From the log it seems like the app is not communicating with the "Main". But i am still looking at it as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Yes please as mine works fine as well. I use it all the time. So ill compare my log with yours. PM it to me please.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
See and you still want me to keep Viper in the Rom lol. That is weird though. I am assuming maybe has something to do with the audio from viper. [MENTION=6766683]La Parca[/MENTION] good find. Glad it helped.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
Holy put the problems out!!!! Maybe i should hold on the release...............
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Stang, since yesterday, my phone has been restarting every hour or so or shutting down with no cause. Not sure why, but will do a full wipe tomorrow. Might have done something in dev options by accident.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] masters:
Me three, I also uninstalled the update. Hope it's figured out. I use voice search a lot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Solved recurring problems with no storage to add or even update apps. Cleared cached data in Settings/Storage. Had over 2.5GB of cached data! Wife had the same issue, stock unrooted lollipop, so not a ROM issue.

No adverse results noticed since I did it yesterday. Great to be back to tons of space.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
It's tough being a perfectionist :) IMHO release it and then start on release 3. I haven't seen anything mentioned that is a deal-breaker. This rom is already way better than stock vzw. . Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
For those who want it and don't know how to enable call record here it is. Not sure where I found it but I googled it :)

Go to system/csc/feature.xml

Look for this line toward the end

</FeatureSet>

</SamsungMobileFeature>

Make a new line above/before that one and paste:

<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>

Save file, reboot, and you will have working call record.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stang5litre:
This doesn't work. I tried this a long time ago. Still looking into it. Changed it in others.xml as well. Still no dice. Changed snd_soc_msm folder to international no dice, changed the dialer , contacts, framework to international again no dice.

Can you do a call recording if yours actually works for me please and send me the log.

Thanks
