When I tried to flash the SuperSU, it was installed in systemless mode. Is it normal? Should I use the system-mode installation files to avoid any conflict or instability?

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 AM ----------

I found a strange behavior. If I skip the google login process during the first boot, it loops the setting steps again and again. I think it's a compatibility problem with the gapps(I installed A-GAPPS) but I'm not sure.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] 3lambda:
Yap change your gapps :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] WeirdSoup:

Fresh build with the new kernel

Latest build: cm-13.0.2-20160915-UNOFFICIAL-ks01ltexx.zip (MD5)

This one and all my older builds, with the older kernel are here: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/8l264568av165.

If you want a stable version, use the newest one compiled by kyasu, here: cm-13.0-20160911-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5Y-ks01ltexx.zip. The only changes are in the kernel.

All thanks go to kyasu.

Flashing Instructions

Hey guys,

I'm so glad to have found a regularly updated build for the I9506. I'm currently on the official cm13 builds (cm-13.020160914-NIGHTLY-ks01lte) however they only offer nightly's and the battery drain and crashes are not pleasant.

I'm just a little worried about installing this ROM though. In the original post it is stated: "Make sure that your GT-I9506 has the Lollipop bootloader and modem (The last installed stock ROM must be 5.0.1)". Does this mean I have to install a lollipop ROM before installing the latest snapshot? Or am I able to go directly from by current ROM (I have TWRP flashed already from when I installed CM initially). Also can I use the same GAPPS I used for my current build. It is from opengapps and I checked ARM and stock.

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a silly question, I'm still quite new to all this!
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] gebaya:
Just wipe system and cache and then give it a shot. If this doesn't work, flash the official stock Lollipop (I guess you could also probably just try to flash this with Odin/Heimdall) and install this ROM after that. Use the same GAPPS as before.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] WeirdSoup:
It is recommended to install the latest bootloader and modem before install the rom to prevent instabilities. I always check the official updates and install the latest stock firmware (if there is an update)to update the bootloader and modem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] greenc0102:
Cheers Gebaya and Weirdsoup. Just flashed it as is and it works fine. However what boyz10 said about the delay between power button and screen on is happening to me as well. Not the end of the world though, however hope it is fixed in the next snapshot. Thanks kyasu for an awesome and (so far) stable ROM!
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] gebaya:
New build

There have been some updates to the current snapshot, here's a new build.

cm-13.0.2-20160917-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5Y-ks01ltexx.zip (MD5)
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] greenc0102:
Awesome I'll have a go with the new snapshot. Unsure if it is an issue in the new snapshot but my camera wont focus (it's locked to a 10-20cm focal length). I've put the camera on a GT-I9507 logic board and it works fine (that board has the original samsung software on it so I know the camera module is fine.) It could be my logic board causing this issue but I doubt it as it used to focus before I updated.

If it is my logic board causing the issue, can I flash this Cyanogenmod build onto the GT-I9507. It is basically the same phone I think but I'm unsure if it will work.

If it is the software then is there any known fix?

Thanks guys

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kyasu:
Please keep this thread clean.

I already explained the origin of my work and my ability to do the original CM porting of the bland new device in #13 and #14.

From the github and the gerrit of CM, I know who solk2 is and his CM work. I respect his CM work and I did small contributions as follows:

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/74135/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/74136/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/89513/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/91066/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/107796/

Because I am new to this 'Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development' category, I don't know who arter97 is, who Furrydaus is, and their works. I was surprised and disappointed at their posts.

I did many open source work and my real name and mail address is credited in the Linux kernel source tree. All of the android ROMs use the Linux kernel. But I will not claim that their ROMs steal my work nor they forgot proper credits. Because I live in a open source community.

The credit of open source community is keeping the copyright of the source code.

The theft of open source community is changing the copyright of the source code.

Using other open source is a base of the development in a open source community.

They claim that my work uses other open sources. As you know, the android ROM consists of many open sources; Linux kernel, AOSP, CAF, ffmpeg, and so on. I cannot understand their claims and I think they live in another open source community in another planet. Of cource I kept the copyright of the open source.

I provide the source code in github. You can build CM from my source. May the source be with you.

Please understand this thread is for development and not for support. And I have a real life and a real hard work. I read all of your posts. But please don't expect the reply.

Thnx for reply kyasu . i did Not know that your development have no support from you. Can't read that anyware . how you wanna make a good ROM if you don't help people with there problems . but thats to you . i like your work thumbs up from me and i have no hard feelings. #20 i did not see that thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] papete:
Don't pay attention to hate posts kyasu, you are very welcome in this communitty. Our device is not very popular for development and every little contribution is welcome...

It may have something to do with a recent change by [MENTION=4861355]kyasu[/MENTION], but I'm unsure. If installing kyasu's build from the first post (cm-13.0-20160911-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5Y-ks01ltexx.zip) fixes it, then it's probably it. For me the camera focus works fine on the newest build though, have you tried using a different camera app?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] heget:
installed the latest snapshot version and I have bug with phone calling (screen), when I need to cancel or stop the calling I always have a screen off. It seams to be bug on light sensor.

And why we have snapshot fot ks01lte ? Officially from CM 13 does not exist snap for this i9506 device, only NIGHTLY builds. What is the main difference between this version and original?

Thanks.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] deeriks:
This is the proximity sensor bug. Many Samsung devices suffer from this. But it can be solved. The proximity sensor have to be calibrated.

I used this guide and it worked very good.

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:29 PM ----------

As far as I know (please correct me, if I'm wrong) all versions of this ROM (by kyasu) have this wake-up-from-standby-DELAY (1-2 seconds after pressing the home or power button).

I'm on the cm-13.0-20160709-UNOFFICIAL-ks01lte-build at the moment and this delay-bug is there too.

Dispite of this the ROM runs very good, stable and have good battery times. Very good work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] gebaya:
I've been using this ROM for quite some time and I've never experienced this wake up delay bug. Maybe try clean flashing one of the newer builds and see if this issue disappears.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] boyz10:
I have the same wake-up-delay screen problem when i flash latest snapshot build 19/9.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] zardak:
Yes the delay is present only on kyasu's kernel based ROMs, but the wake up delay is not due just to phone locking.

It also occur for example, on phone callings when the proximity sensor turns off the display even for very little time.

Clean cache+dalvik, format /system only, flash all zips again. Do not need a data removal if flash same rom or a update for this rom. I did OpenGApps updates this way sucessfully too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] WeirdSoup:
I mean the inbuilt su binary. (assume that no SuperSU has flashed)
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] leleobhz:
This rom provides builtin su? I never tried to flash it w/o root, but a lot of times I removed/added xposed this way. I don't remember any CM variant providing su binaries builtin. I'll try to inspect the .zip when I have a free time if no one awnsers it.

Strange.. In 0927 build, the message "Preparing to start... Starting apps..." is always shows up when rebooting the phone. I can't remove it. Even though I made a full wipe and installed only ROM/GAPPS, It still appeared. It was not happened in previous builds. Wiping cache and dalvik-cache several times won't remove it either. Does anybody have the same problem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] knojap:
it was also in 11.9 build.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I dont think its a "problem", but simply a timing thiung in that maybe the previous versions were too busy doing other things during boot that they did not have the time to show this message. I would guess its simply a standard part of the boot process. Maybe if you flashed a smaller GApps and did not have any 3rd party apps installed, it would boot faster and not show the message. I say this as I have seen this message on a lot of custom ROM's first boot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] knojap:
GPS Fix in Germany takes very long when using only the GPS device without the mobile data.

Tried Faster GPS but without luck.

Is there a problem with it?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] WeirdSoup:
That's so strange, because I didn't see that in 11.9.

Well, as far as I know, that message means the device has finished creating the dalvik cache. So it is just normal to get that message on the first boot after clean installation. Sometimes it also appears on the 2nd or 3rd boot, but in this case, it always pops up when rebooting the device(regardless of the boot speed as well). So I guess it has some problem with creating/managing the dalvik cache or something, I don't have much knowledge though..
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DiamondJohn:
It may not be a "problem" as much as a slightly less than optimized boot; or possibly an extra optimization step. My daily is a different phone, running 5.1.1 BlissPop ROM on a much weaker phone (Razr M 1.5 GHz dual core with 1G ram), and this message is also on virtually if not every boot. I *think* i may of noticed a pattern that it occurred after any boot that happened after any market app updates. But I never tested this theory. ie this artifact is not specific to Marshmallow, this ROM or the current build.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] sharmashubham33:
frnd i need suggestion. right now i am in the n7 port rom. i dont like that rom now as it was quite laggy and slow. so is this rom is good. i need your reviews about this rom. everything is working fine in this rom means it is bug less or not??. is the user interface is good in this rom plz reply fast frnds.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I actually have a third device (a Nexus 5 running an ASOP based ROM ie not CM) and when it booted today, it also showed that message. When I tried to reboot the phone (after installing some app updates), it did not show the message.
