[Galaxy S 4 General] Mango Polo:
I am not saying you are wrong and that AOSP based roms are crap. I was always loving Original Android stuff and nexus 4 remains my favourite device until now. I never wished to have a samsung device since they fulfill their roms with muuuuch more apps than needed. I own this i9500 just because my previous phone crashed and am not able to buy a new one at this time. The only thing that makes me ask some questions is... why sgh4 architecture did not allow until now to be created a stable CM rom for it. for nexus 4 I remember there where more than 10 different developers which had 100% stable/bugfree/smooth roms made. I am absolutely sure it is only our device fault that only stock roms keep working fine and bloatewared builds even save battery life. and I am sure you,developers work hard alot to bring the best for this device. I am just wondering What the heck did those Samsung developers do to our device that after such a long time we couldnt manage to find ourselves with a 100% stable custom rom based on CM.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
You won't able to find a totally bug-free ROM (based on AOSP) on an Exynos based device, because not all has been open-sourced by Samsung. (we are lucky to have some of the hw sources because ODROID dev. board has exynos5410, otherwise it would have been even worse).

Actually i can only say you that if you really want something near to TouchWiz (almost no bugs and almost the same battery life), you need to try my GearCM. Official CM has some more bugs because there's a different policy to meet, so not all my changes can be used also on official CM.

I'm not advertising my ROM, i'm just explaining you the reality.

Next time do not buy an Exynos device, choose a Qualcomm based instead.

I updated to the 20150911 nightly and the pixelated video issue is still there, also how can I replace the stock Gapps with the nano version? thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
1) Known bug

2) format /system, install latest nightly and install nano gapps
[Galaxy S 4 General] volkanboyaci:
Although I didn't flash gapps, play store was already there. Is it normal?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
No, unless you flashed gapps on previous build.

Have been using this rom for a while. Everything seems to be working decent and performance is great.

Just one little problem. The soft keys seems to be causing the device to vibrate even when the phone is locked. Is this intended behavior?

If not. Can u please look into it.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
It has been already reported. It has been fixed, just wait next nightly.

Phone restart problem

I started getting boot loop restart with the phone restarting continually as of Sat evening. It happened 3 times. Only way to recover is to remove the battery for a while. When I restart then everything is ok. See the logcat attached.
[Galaxy S 4 General] volkanboyaci:
I flashed gapps, but after that I did clean install. I did wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache portion, than I flashed the nightly and play store was there. It happened to me 3-4 times.
[Galaxy S 4 General] musaxci:
Is there ambient display on the official build? On-screen nav bar?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
If you want to remove definitely gapps you have to wipe /system too.

Both not yet.
[Galaxy S 4 General] volkanboyaci:
You mean wipe media? Because there is no wipe system in my cyanogenmod recovery, which is updated via cm updates.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
My installation guide doesn't specify CM recovery, i'm providing support only if correct procedures are followed.
[Galaxy S 4 General] volkanboyaci:
So do you have any advice? Any page to install recommended recovery?

If you check first post carefully you'll read GearRecovery/TWRP.

Google Camera HDR missing

Hey guys I give this rom a try and it's so master of piece despite of the missing HDR feature in Google Camera app? what do I can do? :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Not so easily.

Not possible. XDA posts (lots of threads talk about it) will answer you.

You'll need to revert to standard .pit, follow this procedure (created for GearCM, compatible with CM):

Nope, that's not an Exynos device.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Try latest GearCM Recovery. If it fails, then you're not using a supported partition layout. (such as the chinese one)

It isn't listed because it is device dependent.

You won't get support for third-party stuff here.

what's the difference between this and the optimised one?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mks693:
The Official CM rom is maintained by [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION]

He makes the very recent changes here relating to performance...which are then in time pushed (even if partially) to CM Official Sources. The kernel is different because it has seLinux disabled and few minor tweaks you might not even notice...this GearCM ROM will have more performance. But CM will have their updated base changes which are included here with each update.

What I mean is you probably wont even notice what's different in terms of user interface. GearCM will have more performance. Official CM will have updated sources. But it will include GearCM's changes in time as [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] pushes them to CM

You can decide by a simple choice..more performance and not-nightly updated sources or similar/worse performance (improving with nightly updates) with updated sources. I would choose GearCM because of the reasons i mentioned above. Do what you will...and let this be a note to everybody who ask this again and again and again. Don't spam the thread with same question in every alternate page...because there are other people who might have different problems they need to ask. Read at least 15 previous pages and the first post Changelog before asking the question. Reading most of the times will give you a solution and if not most of the info you will read will help you anyway.

Feedback regarding Bluetooth headset audio stutter:

Changing minimum CPU frequency up from 250 to 450 seems to help dramatically. This is with ondemand governor on stock kernel. Performance governor works too but that's kind of stupid because it locks in 1600 Mhz at all times.

Other people say change to awesome player instead of nuplayer in development settings but that didn't seem to help me at all.
