Some bugs and issues and in general impressions of a few builds. (221,228)

Hello Rom Dev

I decided to give your rom a try a month or two ago (somewhere in december I believe). And I want to report that when I was on build 221 I had issues with power saving not turning on nor even showing that it functioned. It only got worse as I upgraded to build 228. It did work a few times on both these builds and two older ones, but now everytime I turn it on, it crashes the system UI or restarts the device. That isn't the only issue with that feature, it stayed on at one point for a while and everytime I turned it off, it'd go into a sort of 'boot loop' of turning on and off randomly and not wanting to comply. So I tried restarting and it ended up crashing my SD Card as I had mounted it as internal storage. I'd say that's my fault for hitting soft reboot instead of just reboot.

I've had many issues with themes crashing the UI and hell restarting the device. I will admit battery life is not so great but I can contribute that to a damaged battery (have bought a new one and am waiting on it to test it out). Nonetheless I love the build, everything else has worked perfectly fine, though wifi at one point did not want to turn on even after I manually did it via the settings toggle. But it's working fine now. I am completely in love with the build and all the hard work you've put into it. Keep up the great work. I hope to see some newer builds and things ironed out in time.

-Eternall Love

I got a status 7 error, how do I fix this ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Hey everyone, new build cm-13.0-20160311-UNOFFICIAL-jfltespr.zip is up. Sorry for the delay in a rough spot in life right now. I'll try to put up a new build next week, I can't promise anything until things get better. I lost my sprint s4 so I am no longer able to test builds, but they should work fine, let me know if their are any issues and send a copy of the log if possible and I should be able to get patched.

Ty everyone hope everything works out well for ya!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] th3dr3w420:
I wanted to say thank you for keeping up with this project. I will be installing CM13 on my device tonight~!

Thank you!

Thanks and Sprint data fix

Just wanted to say thanks for doing this. I had trouble getting Sprint Data to work until I found some other posts for a sprint data fix.

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/fix-sprint-data-to-custom-roms-t2541924

I don't have access to APN settings, but flashing CM 13, GAPPS, then sprint.zip worked and now have LTE working

Thanks again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
liking the 228 build. My camera crashed once, required a reboot. All else seems ok. I get lte data ok but my wifi hotspot doesnt work well if at all. usb ether seems ok. Which superuser app do you guys use with this? I still cannot get my binary to update to the point where the phone says its rooted.

Will update my modem to ok3 tonight and see if that helps the wifi.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gregsu13:
Domestic and/or international unlock?

Has anyone tried to do a domestic and/or international unlock with this CM 13? I am guessing you would follow the other threads with downgrading the modem to MDC or something, but not sure if you can come back to this CM 13
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nhpd4101:
Thanks to the developer! I've been running this since December updating every couple weeks. Today I dirty flashed from 2/28 to 3/11 and got no data connection. WiFi worked. I tried just the sprint.zip linked figuring it was APN settings. This did not work and I flashed back to 2/28 build and my LTE sprint data worked again. Just an FYI in case others experience the same thing. Thanks for all the effort keeping us current! Sprint Galaxy S4 OK3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Uldiniad:
I also am not in the US and was trying to get an international unlock for CM13. I flashed stock rom from Sammobile via Odin (there are some tutorials out there). I took the one ending in GOH but the latest is GOK3 I think. Then, I followed the steps in this XDA thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2415587 to downgrade the baseband to MDC in order to unlock internationally. After flashing CM12.1 to make sure data was working, I installed multiROM to dualboot into CM13 after flashing my own build via TWRP. It would only connect to 1xRTT network when roaming. So it seems like we'll still have to wait some time till they implement some other telephony stuff before it works internationally. The other option is to code your own solutions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] greeg32:
Looks like we have official cm13 nightlies ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] akaTRAP:
That we do. Just downloaded it. Once I take care of business I'll install it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
I'm still on 228 build and its pretty solid. Battery life on mine is amazing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] greeg32:
I went back to 3/18 version of 12.1 as well. My phone can't receive calls while on either of my Bluetooth devices ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Hey guys, do you have any interest in using this rom anymore since CM makes nightlies somewhat now, they are a few days behind lol. My releases will be on random days once a week and I can no longer test, I do not have this phone any longer. Let me know if you guys want me to continue building weeklies or if your just going to swap to CM.

Thank you everyone for your support!

joryb
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
I need more feedback on the official thread, i dont trust nightlies very much even if they are official. Updates when you can are greatly appreciated.

---------- Post added at 10:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

I just dirty flashed 321 on top of 228 and all is working ok so far. (cleared dalvik and cache and reapplied su-beta)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] akaTRAP:
My honest opinion?

No.

Only because we're now getting official nightlies, which means CM has the resources to do what you can't, meaning you wouldn't have to worry about testing or anything of that nature. You did an amazing job with these unofficial nightlies, and I thank you for it, but since the inconvenience of building and compiling ROMs for us jfspr users is now officially being taken care of by CM, I don't see the need of you worrying about it any longer.

If you for whatever reason choose to, go right on ahead. I just think from a convenience standpoint, I can't think of a reason why you should.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dragonhart6505:
Agreed with above. CM13 is now official, I'd leave into them.

If you do choose to continue, make it personal. Fresh. New. Fork their commits and make it your own. This was a great project, but honestly your work is done here. Thank you for your awesome rom!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jyclop:
So I really need some help!

I'm on forums like this where people just throw around all these things that I know nothing about, and it's really kind of frustrating to get into when I know little about it.

The only custom ROM I've ever installed was CM12 on my Galaxy S3, and that was a couple days of struggling with it, soft-bricking it several times in the process. And I've just never felt comfortable doing custom ROMs without having a clear idea of what I need to do.

So now I have a Sprint (single-band) GS4 and I really would like to upgrade to CM13, because I really do love CM. I'm currently on stock TouchWiz Lollipop WITH ROOT. I been really frustrated recently with how slow TouchWiz is though, so I very much want CM13.

The things I'm worried about:

-I use my GS4 as my main phone, so ideally I want something that's pretty reliable for everyday use, although I really don't mind constantly tweaking stuff.

-My battery life is already very poor (a single charge lasts about a half day of moderate use). Is the CM13 battery life better, worse, or comparable?

-I'm on FreedomPop, and I had a ton of issues with CM12 on my FreedomPop S3.

Is CM13 a good option for me or should I stick with the stock OS?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gregsu13:
Probably going to official CM 13.0

I really appreciate the work you did and enjoyed the ROM a lot - bluetooth would sometimes stop, but otherwise it seemed pretty rock solid.

I say "probably going to official CM 13.0" because being a newb, I cannot figure out where the official release is for our device. Last week CM released the official (cyanogenmod.org blog cm-13-0-release-1, but all I see are nightlies. I don't see the stable release or am I blind? download.cyanogenmod.org device=jfltespr. Or there isn't a stable release yet?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jyclop:
I think by official, they just mean that they're being made by the official CyanogenMod developers now. They're still nightlies, but they're official nightlies.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Right on was just looking for some opinions, I now have a few Nexus devices and moved on from Samsung. Thank you everyone who used and supported my builds, if you are ever needing a non SE-enforcing for various mods CM13 or AOSP MM PM me and I'll share how-to cook them. This project is now closed and official CM13 build can be found at

https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=jfltespr
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gregsu13:
Yeah, I thought so too, but then on the post, they wrote "Update scenario 3: CM 13.0 nightly user

Update steps: Stop. Step away from the phone. Do not flash these builds, you are already on a newer codebase (Android 6.0.1_r22). Attempting to flash these release builds will result in crashes due to attempted database downgrades. Don’t do it.

If you want to swap off nightlies and stick to our release channel, you will have to wipe to take these builds."

So it makes it sound like these are not nightlies but a stable release, but what the hell do I know. Oh well - a stable release has got to be coming soon, right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] life-in-3D:
[MENTION=3765098]joryb[/MENTION], I know you guys said this project had stopped, because CM went official I would like to know if anyone knows whats going on with the CM nightlies the SU binary is out of date and I cannot get the SuperSU app to update it successfully using the "Normal" method or the "TWRP/CWM" one. Any advice would be very much appreciate. My device is an L720t the tri-band model on OD2 Firmware if that makes any difference. TIA.

Edit: Just spotted the "Must Be on OH1" how can I update?

As an aside it detected the Sim fine and all services were working properly with OD2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
CM uses superuser and its built in, this is why you get the # in the notification bar using CM. SuperSU by chainfire may not work well with CM nightlies. If you are wanting to use SuperSU by chainfire you will need to go with a custom CM build or use an AOSP based rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joryb:
Just keep checking daily for a snapshot build, that will be the most stable option.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] life-in-3D:
[MENTION=3765098]joryb[/MENTION], thank you very much for the info one more question then, why when I try to use any root application do I get an error saying root does not exist on the device (kernel auditor is the app in question, I didn't see performance settings that are usually built into cm) thanks again very much for the info
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dougrun:
try flashing this in recovery. worked for me. although i still get the SU asking to update, i ignore it, status says rooted after i flashed it.

Sorry i cant find the thread to give proper credit for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] life-in-3D:
turns out SU just needed to be enabled in the developer settings! Thanks for the help tho, now my only problem is that phone app works quite poorly... Almost never received incoming calls, when I hang up I get the notification for ongoing call until I reboot, and the audio playback comes only through the earpiece regardless of what is selected (bt, speaker, earpiece) I think it might be because the device is a tri-band model, L720t?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cfli1688c1:
Anyone using this on ringplus?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Eternall Love:
I have a question for you. Seeing as Android N will be done within a couple of months and will probably be out running on some devices.

Would you be willing to port it to the s4? I had the idea after seeing how much work you put into making this one, and this was the most successful rom I've used on my s4 before CM nightlies (yeah didn't like the others).

If you are willing to work on it once it's out and about, I'd be glad to beta test it, currently using my secondary s4 as my main rather than the sprint one. If so let me know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] victr10:
good afternoon I have a problem with my modem or CM13 ROM baseband is the oh1 which is calling for the rom to recognize the simcard but when I install Reconce not sim can help me please
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] andyree2g16:
Please can you show me how to do that... I also do not have the OH1 Modem and thus my sim card is not registered. No service displayed. I have the OD2 but it still does not work. I have flashed it several times.

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 PM ----------

Please can anyone post the OH1 modem here so that i can download and flash for my s4 ?? Thank you...Will be really grateful

Mi Samsung Galaxy S4 no me da Cobertura estoy en Cuba y la banda es GSM 900. Como puedo configurar la ROM para GSM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_s4:
Hi,

I have a galaxy s4 SCH-i545 . The phone reboots randomly (sometimes immediately after boot, sometimes after 5 minutes of usage sometime even more )when I use it if it is NOT on charging. However while on charging the phone does not reboot. My friend also has a s4, I used his battery just to see if it is a battery issue but it reboots even with his battery. I had kitkat and I upgraded to lollipop but issue stays the same. I have no issue with power button as suggested in many threads here.

What could be the issue? What can be done?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ryant35:
My first thought was the battery (until you mentioned you tried another), I had a bad one that caused the same issue.

First try:

Hard reset, hold power button down until it shuts off. Turn it back on and see if it still restarts.

Next try going into stock recovery and clearing cache, see if it helps.

Last try a master reset, if it's software based this would correct it.

If nothing above works it might be a hardware issue, if you have Verizon and are paying for insurance they will replace it for free. I just got a new S4 form VZW for free and I didn't even buy my first S4 from Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bob_s4:
I tried all this but issue persists. I do not have insurance :(

About

Code Aurora Forum Android releases are based upon the source released from the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). AOSP releases are periodically merged into the Code Aurora Forum development branch and public releases made at stable points in the cycle.

Code Aurora Forum creates stabilization branches based upon the general release branch. A stabilization branch is created in order to stabilize and fix chipset specific problems with the general release branch. In keeping with AOSPs pastry theme stabilization branches are named after different kinds of pastries

This ROM is based on CAF latest release LA.BF.1.1.3-00510-8x74.0, with some little modification to some components to make it build and few hand picked features.

Nearly all basic feature should be working.

All the CAF features are enabled without any reverts!!

for now the thread is basic everything will be updated gradually.​

Great both of you back in action.

Hey vasishath sorry to ask this traditional question. But can u list out any major bug in ur rom?? And most imp is there CM theme engine??? I use 2g. It takes alot of time to download it. So just in advance I am asking :)
[Mi 3 Android Development] ianuragsharma:
Great Job! vasi is back!
[Mi 3 Android Development] Akishima:
Is this ROM made especially for MI3, or it also support MI4w?
[Mi 3 Android Development] Manu11:
at last aosp based rom, frustated by using laggy cm roms

---------- Post added at 06:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 AM ----------

does that kernel hav s2w and dt2w features ?
[Mi 3 Android Development] El-Chupacake:
Laggy? I am on Audahadi's build and it is quite stable and fast. This ROM is currently flashed on my second MI3W and will tell you about this after sometime. AOSP by Ivan currently has a WiFi bug due to which it can't be switched off and eats away battery.
[Mi 3 Android Development] Mavz12:
will this work on multirom?
[Mi 3 Android Development] Pallmalli:
Does AdAway work on this ROM? Is the only app not working on cm13.
[Mi 3 Android Development] 1immortal:
have you tried to move the AdAway to the system partition?
[Mi 3 Android Development] Manu11:
i am too on audahadi and i find only aosp based roms r smooth even the official cm12 starts lagging after some says of use i used omni and slim too much bcoz of their stability
[Mi 3 Android Development] knoxwalles:
adaway

AdAway is working fine here.

So far this ROM is running smooth. The only small glitch is that HDR is giving me underexposed (completely dark) pictures on my MI4. On MI3 it's working OK.
[Mi 3 Android Development] gary138.138:
Though I tried many times, I can't flash the caf kernel successfully.:(
[Mi 3 Android Development] solazz:
Try clean wipe system,data n dalvik. Then install ROM in recovery. Then reboot to recovery again n install the kernel. Works for me using twrp.
[Mi 3 Android Development] gary138.138:
Thank you for your advice.:)
[Mi 3 Android Development] karthikb89:
Great. I've heard CAF codebase is great for snapdragon devices (camera, etc). Is it based on Linuxxx's sources? Coz audahadi's cm13 has a slow charging bug.
[Mi 3 Android Development] Jay sharma:
same bug as of ivan's ...world clock gives fc..hope it will be resolved soon

thank u for the rom
[Mi 3 Android Development] solazz:
Does this ROM support layers? BTW, awesome job vasi, very smooth ROM:good:
[Mi 3 Android Development] error01671:
It should support, but some layer themes won't apply correctly, if you don't mind.

lightsensor error

Thanks a lot for this great rom [MENTION=5579787]vasishath[/MENTION]!!!

Sa far everything worked for me. Just the battery consumption is a little high.

The rom hardly goes into deep sleep and the logcat is swamped with an lightsensor error:

void LightSensor::ProcessLightSensorWork(sensor1_msg_header_s*, sensor1_msg_type_e, void*)(): Got INVALID indication!!!

any idea how this could be fixed?
[Mi 3 Android Development] SenseiK:
Is the rom exactly same as that of Ivan...Bugs or new features?
[Mi 3 Android Development] solazz:
Anyone face issues with otg on this ROM? It doesn't seem to work for me.
[Mi 3 Android Development] SenseiK:
Tried any file manager like ES??

Any updates with the ROM
[Mi 3 Android Development] karthikb89:
I had much hope for the CAF base as it gives good performance for snapdragon chips. Hope it will be developed once MM is stable
[Mi 3 Android Development] SharksT:
Why snapchat don't work in this rom?
[Mi 3 Android Development] gamesky:
tried to flash but end up no os been installed...not sure where I did wrong .. using twrp and extended partition
[Mi 3 Android Development] knoxwalles:
did you install the ZeurionX kernel too?
[Mi 3 Android Development] gamesky:
yeah, tried to install end up binary error :confused: ..on other cm based rom such as beanstalk can install fine tho,
[Mi 3 Android Development] Me_Ashish_:
That's common problem now a days with Ivan's AOSP, MIUI ROMs.

This ROM gets installed, that'd what it says. But doesn't happens actually, that's why installing kernel gives error too.

Just restart ur TWRP, it will say no OS installed. Just restart it and directly re install the ROM.
[Mi 3 Android Development] gamesky:
yeah that's what i did, end up booting in fastboot mode.
[Mi 3 Android Development] Me_Ashish_:
Rebooting Recovery ended up booting in fastboot? WTH.

You can still reboot to recovery using vol up
[Mi 3 Android Development] gamesky:
nah what I mean after flashed the rom, on normal boot it would boot into fastboot instead
[Mi 3 Android Development] knoxwalles:
going into fastboot ... hmm. I had that before I installed the right kernel. Are you sure you had the ZeurionX CAF Kernel (see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64394007&postcount=3 )? I'm not sure if this rom is compatible with any other kernel.
[Mi 3 Android Development] gamesky:
yeah, tried to flash the kernel ends up with binary updater error tho.. right now I trying other mm based rom such as Resurrection remix, it does flashed properly and boot up fine..
[Mi 3 Android Development] Me_Ashish_:
The ROM is very smooth with stock kernel, can be used as daily driver.

Except it also has slow charging. Last night, kept it for charging at 20-30 mins and got 2% charge. It obviously became normal when I rebooted phone on charging.
[Mi 3 Android Development] SkipperRyujin:
Well, my step when flashing this rom:

- factory reset

- wipe system

- Install CAF rom

- reboot twrp

- install kernel

- install gapps

- Reboot system

If you check the system partition just after flashing caf rom, you will see the amazing memory being used in system :D
[Mi 3 Android Development] vasishath:
New build

1. Update to latest CAF tag (6.0.1)

2. Fix world clock crash

3. Add wifi frequency band selection (2.4 and 5 Ghz)

4. Add layers support

5. Improve audio volume

Again, u have to flash latest build of zx caf kernel on top of this.

[Mi 3 Android Development] vishal24387:
Layer? CM themes are too much easy to use compared to layers. Also with CAF kernel deep sleep battery drain is little bit high. Please have a look into it :)
[Mi 3 Android Development] knoxwalles:
great news, thanks a lot. :good::good::good:
[Mi 3 Android Development] knoxwalles:
just tried to install, but during flashing the kernel I got error message "Error executing the Updater binary" while pushing the modules. Any idea how to fix this?
