I had tried to install AOSP-5.1.1-20150619 and tried using tkgapps. I tried using TWRP 2.8.7.0-f2fs (also tried 2.8.6.0-f2fs), I converted System, Data and cache to f2fs then did the install of both.

I clean flashed both times.

When I reboot, I get the Galaxy S4 logo, then it vibrates and I get the logo again, then vibrates then logo then I get the boot animation.

I let it sit for approx 30 mins, and boot animation still going on.

I tried turning it off, and tried booting into recovery, but it seems to ignore the volume up/home and try to boot the system again.

Both times I had to go into download mode and use ODIN to flash the stock rom and go through rooting and installing TWRP again.

I did download the gapps mentioned in OP first page, but After going through this twice, kind of leery trying again. Not sure if the tk gapps was the cause, or what. But maybe tomorrow I'll try again with the gapps from the first page and see what happens, or maybe this time not convert system, data, cache to f2fs, maybe I'll leave them as ext4 and see what happens.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Leave it for longer than 30 I flashed with open gapps aroma package and had everything as f2fs it did what you said above it booted Samsung logo before rebooting then showing boot animation then it finally booted took ages because it doesn't show the android is installing on first boot so that's going on in backgroud
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Cajun_Man:
I'll try that next time. What I did this morning was I left all 3 as ext4 and did the install with tk gapps and upon reboot, I got the S4 screen, then it went to the animation, and in a short time got the green screen.

Not sure why using ext4 on System, Data and cache would make it boot up faster then using f2fs, but hey it's working. :)

I never had any problem like this on the optimized CM 12.1 using f2fs on system, data and cache, that one seemed to get to the setup screen fairly decent time too. Not sure why this one is giving me fits unless I use ext4 on all 3.

So far I have noticed the only option when holding the power button is power off, no reboot entry. Just one entry of Power off. Is this right?

Update:

I went back and converted System and Data to f2fs and left cache as ext4. Re-installed clean and had a normal boot where I was able to set it up. So at least on mine if I have cache set to f2fs, then I get the rebooting and a forever animation, but with cache as ext4, everything runs normal. Doesn't take as long to get to initial setup.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
At least you sorted it don't know why you have issues with cache mine is set to f2fs

I have one strange thing happening when playing music: my music is stored on the ext sd-card (exFat). When one song is over, the music player can't go to the next song automatically. Is it exFat related? Would it work better if my ext sd-card was F2FS?

Photos on external card

Is it possible to change camera to write photos on external card??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] bannerbirds:
It's not possible with the stock camera app at the moment, I can recommend the open camera app for example, it brings loads of options including the possibility to change the save path
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kujawek:
Thanks a lot. I had no idea about this camera. It works 100x better thank google camera, it's so customizable! Good piece of open source code! ;)

f2fs cache resets to ext4 by itself after repartitioning to f2fs

I did a full wipe, dalvik, cache, data, system, internal, and repartitioned system, data, cache to f2fs and installed aosp rom, open gapps, su, with and without cm kernel, but cache still stays at ext4s, what am i doing wrong? I tried to reformat to f2fs cache again but it goes back to ext4s, any suggestions? Btw this is the latest build tmobile 6-19-2015.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Sebastiaanlabr:
Best rom for ur device! It's smooth, stable and very light! :) thanks! Will we see a update to Android M? :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
this rom doesnt use theme engine it uses bitsyko layers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] churchey360:
Oh i acually thought this was a different ROM lol i acually never even tried this.. I thought it was the CyanogenMod thread.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
There is a thread for cyanogenmod from the same team
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] supimpacg:
Excuse me, this rom accept themes designed for cm12.1?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
NO. It can be themed with RRO layers.

EDIT: next build will have full support for RRO...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Can't wait for next build can I request a feature of enable nav bar and disabling hw keys I noticed in other aosp ROMs for other device have that feature

Guys, could you please remove "zipalign all apps" option from stweaks? accidentally hit that button and every apps are gone. :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jazas:
I've been using this ROM for a while now, but I just noticed that bluetooth is not turning on. When I switch it on, it tries to turn on, but fails. I'm latest build of this ROM. Has anybody got the same issue and know how to solve it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
If yo dirty flashed, make a nandroid and try a clean flash. If it doesn't work afterwards you can easily go back.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] redslayer007:
This happend to me too. Steps to follow:

1-Backup your data

2-Clear cache, dalvik,system, data

3-Install ROM, Install NanoGapps

4-Clear cache, dalvik,system, data

5-Restart

And should run smoothly
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Reksho:
So about the alarm sometimes not going off. After two weeks of testing, I noticed that this happens because of the S view cover. When it's closed, the alarm sometimes doesn't make any noise. With the cover open, it always goes off (and wakes me up in the morning thankfully). Perhaps a little oversight there.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jazas:
Thank you for reply. I always do a clean flash, but bluetooth wasn't working. I guess I will need to reflash it again to solve this problem. Why you wrote to clear cache, dalvik, system and data after flashing ROM? Isn't this delete everything?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dfcPE:
For me, Bluetooth only worked after dirty flashing 3x (wipe only dalvik and cache) . I suggest you to try some dirty flashes before doing a complete wipe. If doesnt work then tryva clean flash (nandoid backup first, obviously).

Does anybody else have an issue with their wired headset button? When the screen is off it doesn't work at all with any music app (Spotify, power amp, google play etc..) only when the screen is on? Which defeats the purpose really, any help would be nice thx :)

is anyone having a problem when recieving phone call the com.adroid.phone like this name i think force close and the call is ended it is a common bug in this rom or i'm the only one that having it and does it have a solution plz
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] freonchill:
i have had that happen occasionally in all the various roms i have run since the stock 4.2.2 rom (cm12 and aosp 5.x)

rebooting typically makes the problem go away for a while. i wonder if there is a memory leak and or an issue with the way the default dialer uses the modem that causes FC from time to time. (my own speculation)

like today, I was walking out of my office and trying to text my wife that i was coming home and even though the swiftkey keyboard was up and i was getting haptic feedback when i touched the buttons, nothing was being input. i tried voice/dictation as well and even though the mic came up where you start talking - it wasnt accepting any input. i rebooted and everything was working again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip57:
thanks for your reply

do you think if i change the modem the problem will be gone?

and what modem is recommended i'm on UHOJ2 i think

Click on misc, does it list what apps/processes show under that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] BudaBang:
Yeeaah I figured it out eventually it was power naps endurance mode blocking spotify and other music apps from responding to my headset. Thanks for your reply.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Reksho:
Nope, it doesn't. Just that the observed power use is way higher than the computed power use.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
If you're having battery drain issues you really need something like BetterBatteryStats to see what is going on (wakelocks).

Verizon s4 silent call bug

I really like AOSP roms, but it seems like every one I tried eventually makes my calls completely silent. I can't hear anything, and my mic does not work. I think this is a cyanogenmod bug, but I have not been able to track anything down. I am on MDK, and you guys will probably want logs. Oh, and the only way I can consistently fix the bug is by rebooting. I just tried to load saved logs, but I must not know what I am doing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
I think the devs have beat the "silent call" issue on the AOSP MM ROM. Haven't had that issue in almost three weeks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Reksho:
I don't see anything particularly draining except for maybe facebook messaging. But that didn't go away even after uninstalling. The high music count is because of volume keys to change songs.

Probably Romhut was offline, it' s working fine now! :)

Acltually i'm on XXUHOA7 modem/bootloader and everything is fine for me (Italy) with both LP and MM roms :)

AFAIK TP cause a lot of troubles when restoring apps from LP to MM, i suppose that similar issues could occur even when restoring apps from MM to LP, but i'm not 100% sure... Unfortunately i never used TP, i prefer to restore manually my apps when i made a clean install..! ;)

I just updated to the latest version of the rom (clean install) and everything is great except for the email app for me. I'm using the stock email app and everytime it tries to sinchronize it says Exchange Services stopped working on my hotmail account. Anyone with the same issue or that knows how to solve it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
This has been reported before. For some reason TiBu does not restore across versions properly all the time. I have also seen reports of the same thing after a major ROM update. I personally have had issues doing it. Now the only thing I restore with TiBu is DATA ONLY for Dolphin Browser (bookmarks list) and MMS/SMS history. Everything else gets reinstalled from Google Play and set up fresh. I know it's a PITA, but it beats issues galore.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dfcPE:
I stopped using stock email app because of this. Tried Outlook app for a few days but only received the messages if I opened the app. Now I'm using CludMagic app without any problem. Also I uninstalled stock exchange service using Titanium and installed the one from Google (search on apkmirror).

Hi, i have some feedback for your rom

1. STweaks other tabs have 2 options maybe will cause cannot boot or apps broken (ZIPAlign and SELINUX on off) can add confirm button for those options?

2.Where is Stweaks profile files locate? I hope can mandatory use my custom settings because sometimes after unplug battery will reset to default profile.

3.JDC rom is good rom for S4 but doesn't have OC function for kernel, i really hope JDC kernel can add function for CPU/GPU OC give some extra performance for this old device.

And Thank You for JDCTeam create this great rom for S4:)

It seems that my wifi stop working when I turn the display off. I've checked in wifi advanced options and is already set as always keep wifi on during sleep. I stop receiving whatsapp messagens until I open the app again. Also if I have a list of apps being updated by Play Store and the display goes off, the update stop until I turn on. Is this happening with someone else or just with me? I'm using the latest build and already did a clean flash. Any help will be appreciate. Don't know if ROM related, kernel or is just me doing something wrong.

Same problem here with all marshmallow/cm13 based roms, i think it's a problem between router and rom, because i don't have this issue with all wifi's.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dfcPE:
Solved the problem following the steps below:

1. Reinstalled stock Samsung LL using Odin;

2. Rooted;

3. Flashed recovery TWRP 3.0 using Odin;

4. Flahed latest build;

5. Flashed pico OpenGapps.

I just want to say that this version 5 stable is the best! There is NO network signal loss anymore! Wifi is great! Speed, performance, and battery life is amazing! For my usage, battery life is great! I just hit 5 hour 5 min screen on time (SOT). I am using 3,000 mAH that is 4-6 months old, but amazing! Even new phones can't pull this much SOT!

Thank you JDC team and +BB+ for amazing work on this rom! Finally, no more TW roms :D! Honestly, I am keeping galaxy S4 cause of JDC team now. They are absolutely amazing and very talented individuals. Keep up the great work guys! You have my complete support :D! Thank you for making Galaxy S4 still rock and be better than most modern phones currently available :p.

Other than Gmail (which I still use the Gmail app and not using inbox), I also use my phone for my work exchange email. I tried every free email app that had exchange support and in my research saw that cloudmagic theoretically downloaded all of your email to the cloud. Now I understand that all email is fundamentally insecure, but I didn't want the entirety of my work email shared on a 3rd party server.

https://m.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/2xvs8m/whats_the_best_free_email_app_without/

If you have exchange email and dont like any of the free apps, give nine a try, it is $10 but ita exchange support worked better for me than any other app. (the website used to say the price was going to be increased to $20, but it is still $10 a year after I bought it)

Touchscreen not responsive after screen goes dark

I've installed the 21060207 release on a SM-975L with open gapps pico. When the screen goes dark and I return to the lockscreen, the touchscreen does not respond to my touching the screen even though I can see what's happening on the screen, if it's finding wireless networks or anyting else happening on the device. I've tried reloading several times and tried different TWRP versions and that did not change this problem.

Hi there,

Glad to hear that, I would like to revive my i9505 back.

Do you use an alternate kernel or Alucard kernel that came from this ROM?

If you tweak the kernel, can you share some settings that you've done?

As per I recall when I'm using this ROM, it made my phone very hot.

TIA.
