I know about that. I could not automatically detect it, TiBu would crash. I also could not manually set it. TiBu would see the backup files but "Use the Current Location" was grayed out.

I did resolve the issue. Thanks to [MENTION=3545504]smeroni68[/MENTION] for the hint I was missing.

This is what I did.

Added the line to build.prop to enable sdcardfs. No luck with TiBu.

Connected my S4 to the PC. Win10 recognized the device and after changing the connection type to MTP I copied everything over. ExtSD was in Ext4 format. It took about 90 min to copy 20GB of data.

Booted into TWRP and formatted the card as ExFat. This was [MENTION=3545504]smeroni68[/MENTION]'s suggestion. Don't just reformat, try ExFat since I have a large SDcard.

While in recovery I copied everything back to ExtSD. That took almost 90 min, too. Lol

Rebooted system.

When I got the notice of the new SD card being present I ignored it and swiped it away. I've always done this. Never chose anything before and file management functions always worked perfectly. They do now too.

Under Ext4 without sdcardfs the name for external storage was 57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b. Under Exfat with sdcardfs external storage name is 2EA8-E0F1.

First attempt to set TiBu backup location to ExtSD caused Document Provider to crash. I opened Root Explorer, closed the SD card tab and created a new one. I then went through the steps to change TiBu to ExtSD. After choosing Document Provider Storage and choosing Detect it was automatic. No crashes of anything. TiBu now uses ExtSD for backups.

At this point I believe in the new build TiBu did not like the long folder name that I had perviously. It worked before but only with manually setting the location. Had the long name for a couple weeks now, too. Now it's detected and works perfectly.

As for enabling sdcardfs I have not had any issues so far. I did not set ExtSD to be used as internal storage so the issue +-BB-+ warned about will not affect me.

At this point I'm curious if the "reappearance of deleted photos" I mentioned in my earlier post was related not to FS error/corruption but to file system type. I've been thinking about it all day. I do remember seeing it often when ExtSD was formatted F2FS, so I went to Ext4. I have still seen it since then, but not as frequently. Now that it's ExFat I'll keep an eye out for it.

So far the TiBu issue is the only thing I've experienced. Now that it is resolved I can honestly say I currently have no issues so far.

Great Work Devs!!!

Hi All!!!!

First of all, this is an amazing ROM, really a fabulous piece of software and I'm so glad I found it! I installed on my L720T running on Sprint with Freedompop, but I noticed that I'm only getting 3G, and sometimes data randomly just drops off. Is there a way to regain 4G, prefereably Spark Triband (since I live in an area with Spark coverage)? Thank you so much, and I really hope I can get this issue resolved!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] centur:
I think the problem with you is somewhere else. If you have not formatted the memory card soon - try.

Otherwise, I would recommend you clean installation:

1. Stock ROM with Odin.

2. Root with CF-Root.

3. PhilzTouch recovery (or TWRP). Do not change the file system. Leave it as it is ext4.

4. Lastest AOSP.

5. Open Gapps Nano.

6. Format the card through the card reader If is up to 32 GB -> FAT32 or If is 64GB or more -> exFAT (default).

It turned out to be a substratum theming(Domination theme) problem, Upgrade substratum to the latest version and the same for your theme and all should be good.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] xsycox:
I am still on the latest version BEFORE that substratum thing arrived and therefore have three questions:

1. Do I HAVE TO flash ROM, Gapps AND that TBO thing or is ROM and Gapps enough?

2. If the first applies, which TBO do I have to flash? I found several versions, e.g.

- DU_TBO_GAPPS_7-29-16.zip

- DU_TBO_GAPPS_CLEAR_7-29-16.zip

- GoogleApps-ThemeReady-arm64-LP-MM-N-v20.0.zip

- GoogleApps-ThemeReady-LP-MM-N-v20.0-Aroma.zip

- GoogleApps-ThemeReady-LP-MM-N-v20.0.zip

3. Why are those theming files so big? Is that just more wasted space of storage? I am using only the smallest Gapps package (Pico), anyway. :\
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 4info:
I can confirm this.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
1) If you wanna theme dark, you need (as written in OP) to flash rom + gapps + tbo apps.

2) last one (and it is linked in General notes section in OP)

3) big because are gapps modified for full theming... waste of space? But they substitute the stock app flashed with gapps package with the same but modified for full theming.

they are so big because they need to cover everything that might come with your gapps zip. if you want to use Pico like me the aroma version is best as it should let you choose which apps you want to make theme ready. so you're looking at the last 2 files on your list, definitely not ARM64 and the others look like removal files but I'm not sure.

without flashing the TBO you won't be able to theme system apps, always go for the most recent version too...

A little feedback on sdcardfs support.

I know it still is in development and bugs with it can exist but I think I have one. I need to test further and see.....

I have narrowed the TiBu issue I had to whether or not it is enabled. I have two build.prop files created, one ends in .bak. If I enable sdcardfs TiBu work perfect for me, but other apps (Angry Birds 2, my weather app) do not open. I just get app xxxx is not responding. I also saw this with Package Installer while trying to set app perms for Storage in settings after the initial boot. If I turn it off they work fine but TiBu will only work properly with the backup folder location set to internal storage.

I need to test more and make sure I have not created the issue before I post a log.

This is on the I545, with everything cleaned when I flash. Since my device is now over three years old and on VZW (mainly the VZW part) I'm curious is that is part of my problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Did you moved these apps on external sd? If yes, try to move back on internal sd, reboot and move them back to external sd. Hope it helps (disable sdcardfs, move to internal, reboot, enable sdcardfs, reboot, than move on external...)

Was looking forward to this release and I finally took the plunge and upgraded from another JDC rom (AOSP 5.1). With upgrading I mean change rom :), did a clean install like advised.

It feels faster then 5.1, more "snappy".

Issues I encountered till now (running this ROM from Sunday afternoon):

As previously mentioned, the camera image freezes and the camera image stays on the homescreen. Only way to cure is to reboot.

Using Android Wear the BT connection was dropped one time and the only way to fix BT again was to reboot. Turning BT off/on didn't do anything, the BT icon was gone during this issue. With 5.1 I was able to fix this by toggling BT off/on.

And my previous posted issue: When using a BT speaker the volume slider is only functional for the first 4 "clicks". So about 1/5 of the slider is used to control the volume and on the 4th click the volume is already maxed out.

Don't know how to logcat but I wanted to report this to see how others are doing.

Welcome on MM. I posted on OptCM thread about the flashing of a stock rom and initialize the camera once to let firmware update happen (a message will popup to advise about firmware updete acting).

No I understood you. You think it's related to the camera fw? Cause I saw a previous poster a few pages back with the same issue. He could off course also be running an older camera firmware.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
I do not think... we need latest camera fw to run MM and LP custom roms! It's not an option. Code on custom rom is linked to fw, and it must be updated to LP latest stock sammy rom.

GT-I9505 on AOSP 6.0.1 (JDC)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] flash3d:
So that would be:

Making a nandroid

flashing a stock LP rom (preferrable latest version)

Run it and open camera, wait for fw update notification

TRWP recovery

restore nandroid again.

ps is there anyway to check camera fw version before all this ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
To be clear: sammy do not released sources of drivers... the only thing that custom rom devs has to integrate these stuff is to get from stock roms the blobs (part of sw compiled) and integrate them as they are. The second part of integration is to modify hal code to better match these blobs. I do not wanna come so tecnical... but belive that at least the fw must be LP... if not the blobs will find different fw to work with.

Tbo do not change the look! The only difference is that the apps are Ready For Theming. If you do not apply any overlay through substratum, these apps appear exactly the same of the untouched one.

Another question I installed pico gapps and Flashed tbo and started my phone Google packages updated from playstore.

When I came to trying substratum I had to uninstall those updates because I got a warning it would look all messed up if I didn't revert the updates and substratum worked fine after that.

Now I have got updates showing for the apps, if I update them would it mess up like substratum said it would before I applied the theme or is it safe to update said apps?
