is it OK that it loops seemingly forever?

Once it reaches the number (102 in my case) it starts frameworks and what not and then it goes back to very long boot animation and then it starts optimizing again...I have been trying this this whole day...

EDIT: OK, round two, now optimizing 22 apps....this is PITA

I'm using the 17 nightly with xposed and works fine.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Linkdk:
Hmm yea alright. I tried Flashing v85 instead and that works. Maybe the file was corrupted somehow when i flashed v86 :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] bakeLit:
Ok, just how much battery consumption is considered OK? Yesterday, I did a fresh clean wipe and flash of the 20 Nightly + Pico GApps 20 respectively. My phone doesn't have any wakelocks, sleeps well (according to BetterBatteryStats), lost about two per cent of battery in 8 hours of sleep, but as soon as I started using it in the morning - for exactly one hour of mild Instagram, Facebook, internet surfing, two calls - and exactly in one hour I lost 17 %. Would you consider this normal, or is it too much - if so, is it the battery or the ROM causing it? Thanks. Just curious about how much this phone can hold up.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Linkdk:
17% in 1 hour? Thats 5+ SOT which is pretty good afaik
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] bakeLit:
Still not sure. In the morning at 7:30 I started at 75 %, now I'm at 25 % (just had sudden 7-percent drop from 32 to 25 out of the blue), total Screen on Time in WLD is 2 h 47 m. I think something's not right in here.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] JimmyRay:
I don't know about the drain when in use, but 2% in 8 hours is crazy good!

Is mobile data being or wifi being used?

Cheers!

[MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION] are you planning to move on to a new phone?

I followed you form the Wonder to the S4 mini, and I have been very happy with this decision! Now I graduated and with my PhD I'm saving some cash and thinking about moving forward. But I don't know if I'm ready to have a phone lacking your great support ;)

Lately I was looking at the S7 (non-edge version), because I would like a double SIM... but don't know, is still kind of expensive

thanks again Arne for you great work!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] arco68:
Hello! :)

I don't plan to get a new phone anytime soon. Nothing out there that really interests me. They're either too big or lack something. And the new phones are much harder to bring CM up on, than it used to be a couple of years ago. There are people within the CM team that's working on some of the new phones, and all I hear is problems with this and that. The S4 mini is still a capable device, probably the best dual-core one ever, and one of the devices with the most solid CM build imo. So for the time being, I'm on the fence.

Hello everyone,

I suppose comments like this are not really approved, but I'd like to ask if there is someone who can help me put this ROM on my phone.

I am a complete newbie in this field, and I started following the instructions in the original post, but it seems it's not going correctly.

I haven't done anything to root the phone yet as well, but it didn't say anything in the instructions, so I thought the rooting would be done during the process.

I looked around the internet, and there are tutorials that use something called Odin, but those tutorials are pretty outdated (couple of years ago), so I wasn't sure if I had to do that.

In the FAQ it was stated that to get root acces, the option "Root access" in Developer Options would have to be changed, but I can't seem to find that option?

I only did a backup with Easy Backup & Restore, and not the backup after booting in recovery (I read over that option). I suppose that means I can't change my phone back to the version before wiping data and cache.

My phone specifications:

- Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini

- Model number: GT-I9195

- Android version: 4.4.2

What I have done:

- Downloaded CM-13.0: cm-13.0-20160721-NIGHTLY-serranoltexx.zip, most recent build.

- Downloaded gapps: OpenGApps for CyanogenMod 13 (Android 6.0), Platform: ARM, Android: 4.4, variant: nano.

- Placed cm-13.0 and gapps in /sdcard

- Installed Easy Backup & Restore, ran it and made a backup

- Booted in recovery by shutting down the phone, and holding volume up + power + home buttons (Note: I did not make a full backup here, as I read over this part accidentily)

- Wiped data ("wipe data/factory reset" option)

- Wiped cache ("wipe cache partition" option)

- Installed cm-13.zip ("apply update from external storage" option). It would first give me some red text, saying something was not verified or something, and after that it installed. After this, the phone automatically rebooted?

- Installed gapps.zip ("apply update from external storage" option). Here also it would give me red text saying something was not verified, and after that it installed. Can't remember if the phone automatically rebooted here as well, think so.

- Phone boots as it would normally. No signs that this is a custom ROM? Boot loading screen is the same, etc?

If there would be a kind sir or madam to help me, that would be greatly appreciated. Any guidelines/help, as a reply to this post, or in personal messaging (maybe Skype?) is appreciated!

Again, my apologies for this post if it annoys anyone, as I think it is generally not accepted.

Thanks in advance, have a nice day all!

Edit: I see now in the Google Apps download link that CyanogenMod 13 is for Android 6.0, while I have Android version 4.4.2. So this means I can only put CyanogenMod 11 on my phone?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] folgore95:
To get a ROM on your device it's very simple, you need two things:

1- Custom Recovery ( TWRP / CWM )

2- The ROM file ( must be .zip )

What about Odin?

First at all, it is only for Samsung devices. With it you can't install any rom. You can only restore the stock firmware ( the system when you bought the phone, in poor words ) or update/downgrade bootloader and modem.

Dude what custom recovery are you using? You need to wipe before installing if you don't want face issues

If i helped you, remember to click the thanks button!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Minaan:
Thanks for your fast reply! I don't think I have any custom recovery yet, I just booted in recovery mode, and it shows "Android system recovery". I suppose this is the default one Android has? I will try installing TWRP now, and I'll update you with the results. Thanks again!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] folgore95:
Yeah, that's why you can't install rom zip. Just flash the TWRP tar file from Odin or the image from flashify ( i prefer odin ) then boot into TWRP.

1- "" Backup "" - On SD -> Do it ( a backup of your system of now, if you like to go back because you don't like CM)

2- Go back to TWRP menu and click "" Wipe "" and then "" Advanced Wipe "". Select all except Microsd and swipe to wipe. Go back and swipe for do a factory reset.

3- Go back to TWRP menu and click "" Install "". Select cm13-data-modelphone.zip you download and swipe to install. INSTANTLY go flash the GAPPS as you flash the cm zip file. ( Don't reboot device and then go back in TWRP and flash GAPPS, they will keep crash )

4- Press "" Reboot "". Wait some minute and enjoy rom :)

Hope i helped you!

If i helped you, remember to click the thanks button!

I have now successfully put TWRP on the phone using Odin. Now following the rest of the steps. Will update when I'm done!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] luisbraz:
You need to download the right gapps! You said that you downloaded gapps for kk, but cm 13 is mm, so you have to get gapps for Android 6.0.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Minaan:
I was just about to flash gapps when I saw this post. Just in time :) Thank you!

I downloaded GApps (Platform: ARM, Android: 6.0, Variant: nano)! I picked 4.4 originally, because my Android version i 4.4.2. But I suppose 6.0 is the right one, no matter what Android version you are running, as 6.0 references the version that will be installed with the ROM, and not the version currently on your device, I think?

Update: it worked! I have CyanogenMod installed, and everything works fine. Thank you very much for your help, gosha98_ and luisbraz.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] JimmyRay:
That's great to hear, thank you for your tremendous work Arne!

I came to the S4 Mini from an Xperia SX (another compact dual-core phone, but one that was only sold in Japan and does not have any developer following), and continue to be impressed by this wonderfully little device running your rom.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
NO! You must pick the Gapps package that matches the ROM version, so Android 6 needs gapps 6 while Android 4.4.2 must use Gapps 4.4 etc etc
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] PxlSr:
That sudden drop has happened on my S4 mini in the past too, usually it happens for me after long periods of standby and then start using data.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Minaan:
I think you misunderstood me. What I meant to say, was that I originally thought I had to get Gapps 4.4, because the Android version of my stock ROM was 4.4.2.

However, the version of Gapps is dependant on the Android version of the ROM, not the current Android version (of the stock ROM).

Because my phone had Android 4.4.2 on the stock ROM, I thought I had to get Gapps 4.4, but CyanogenMod 13.0 matches Android version 6.0, so Gapps 6.0 is needed.

This is what I understood, at least. I used Gapps 6.0 with CyanogenMod, while the Android version of my stock was 4.4.2. Hopefully, this is the correct way?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] folgore95:
Yes. Did you flash cm so?

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] arco68:

[MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION] will you release a future release of cyanogenmod with android N?

Inviato dal mio GT-I9195 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] arco68:
Will try yes.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] JimmyRay:
Yes, working very well with the latest baseband.

Compact phones tend to do well in Japan (Xperia Ray, Xperia SX, Xperia Z Compacts, Sharp Aquos Compact), so I'm surprised the Mini version of the S4 was never sold here - the rarity (and the fact it runs a modern OS beautifully) makes the phone all the more desirable.

Cheers!

OK a few thinks:

1. Where i can download autocorect inputing text?

2. Search engine dosent work in "Settings" - nothing show even when i input USB.

3. Device do not show storage after connect it in to USB. Device is aviable only in TWR.

4. Move application in to SD card? How to do that?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
1. Go to your keyboard settings

2.. There are no results for usb unless you have developer options switched on, try gps search term etc to check

3. What format is your sd card?

4. It can't be done on Android 6 (easily) like on older versions, (I believe best option may be to split your SD card into at least 2 partitions and set one as internal memory to store apps and use other as movable, but I've not really looked into it in detail myself as yet ...... )

I tried to flash a completly stock S4 Mini (International LTE serranoltexx) with the cm-13.0-20160725-NIGHTLY-serranoltexx.zip I downloaded from the official CM download page using the correct TWRP.

Unfortunately I had two problems:

1. When trying to flash the mentioned zip it didn't work saying Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset

So I did a reset plus wiped system+data with still no success, the nightly before didn't work either. Without much hope I had the idea to try another ROM (ResurrectionRemix in that case) - et voilà, the installation could be done without any problem :confused:

2. Running RR (CM13 based after all) I discovered that with mobile data I could access Play Store and web sites via browser but wasn't able to send/receive emails and to use Telegram. I remembered having that same issue on my Nexus 6 when updating RR and solved it by choosing the right APN so I checked, double and triple checked the APNs with no success. Searching the www for a solution I discovered a (German) CyanogenMod forum where several people with several phone types had the same problem obviously caused by the combination of CM13, German provider 1und1 and Vodafone: http://www.cyanogenmod-forum.de/Thread-keine-whatsapp-Nachrichten-bei-mobilen-Daten?pid=65584#pid65584

Long story short: The solution was to delete all APNs and to create a new one with the right settings (but strangely the ones I used before!).

Are these common issues? I never had these problems before (starting with CM10 on a Nexus 4)...

[MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION] can you fix this drain on standby please? Latest Snapshot
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] bomyou:
how to GET THE ROM and GAPPES files from the built ? please help
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] arco68:
Snapshot? Then no, as that is based on 6 months old code. We have since moved to a new kernel, and updated and fixed a lot of stuff.

But it looks like something is keeping your device awake, a rogue app perhaps, judging from the steady decline in the battery bar.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] DarkJoker360:
The wifi is often disconnected and my phone try to reconnect but after some seconds it is disconnected and tge phone try to reconnect, is continuos cycle.

So i am on snaoshot because the nightlies is unstable like the snapshot.

So thanks for your immediately answers, good work bro?

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] M1chiel:
The Nightlies are perfectly fine as my (actually my wife's) daily driver. In the rare case of troubles you can simply flash a newer or an older version!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] denyo81:
You can try the app wakelock detector.

Take a look on playstore.

But I'm noticed the latest Snapshot consumes more battery than the newer Nightlys.

Nightlys 26, 27, 28 runs really good and can use as a daily driver.

Hope you find a solution.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] DarkJoker360:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Migual12:
Is it possible to flash an older nightly over a newer without wipeing? Is it possible to do it with the CM13 internal update feature as this shows only newer versions. If not I would prefer to flash a version few days old to be able to easily flash a newer version in case of troubles.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] M1chiel:
Yes, if it has the same Android version (SDK). You can download older versions from the cm site and flash them in recovery. It is a good habit to make a backup first or at least to keep your previous version.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] bolo000:
Hello,

I own an i9192 but you all may have the same security issue in your CM13 builds. I posted in the CM13/i9192 topic the following question:

My intuition tells me once you draw down the status bar the phone should ask for the pattern/PIN/password (?). When the screen is locked the only allowed action should be Emergency Call.

Ps. Now I can see CM12.1 behaves the same...

bolo
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] JimmyRay:
I've been using this rom as a daily driver since purchasing my S4 Mini in May. I began with the snapshot, but transitioned over to the nightlies a month or so ago. Very stable and smooth. I don't think I can recall a crash or unexpected reboot. This is an incredibly well made rom.

The only thing I would like to see is the ability to refresh the CyanogenMod update list by swyping down from the top, as on most apps. However, I expect this is part of CyanogenMod core, rather than being specific to our device.

Thanks again to Arne for his great work!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
It's not just our ROM's it's Android design rule, I believe. I think they did that for "usability", after all a thief can always just turn the phone off. If you want that ability Cerberus anti-theft has it, but needs to be set up first. (and you should install disguised version as a system app ...... but it is a bit of a pain changing it back when flashing and an even bigger pain when you forget! Like I once did :eek: )
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Kreep_eazy:
After I do a reboot I get that error message and the phone starts going crazy touching itself (no pun intended) and after a while it cools down and starts behaving, but this happens through out the day, should I just flash to the latest rom and if I do a nandroid backup will I still ha e my apps??

I'm having issues with the wireless screen mirroring with CM 13 (nightly any version and if I remember correctly also with stable). The TV is a Samsung J5500. My phone is attempting to connect, the screen goes black on the TV for about 30 seconds then disconnects. Had no such issues with CM 12 or CM12.1 (don't remember exactly).

Just tried to connect, it did, the screen mirroring worked for about 10-15 seconds but then the connection dropped and now it doesn't work again.

[MENTION=7576156]Kreep_eazy[/MENTION] you can, but as you have a problem I'd wipe data & cache as it's likely the reason for your problems in the first place.

---------- Post added at 04:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 AM ----------

I have had that issue several times but it's not the servers really, I had to add another weather widget to screen & set it up & turn location on to get the original widget working again, then delete one widget and switch to custom location if you like (though once just switching on gps location seemed to fix it). Every now and then it suddenly happens again, never worked out why though. Same thing happens with open weather (go to settingsl>weather>add provider>select open weather from play)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] JimmyRay:
I use the Yahoo weather provider with a manually entered location and the servers work okay, however the weather is not always accurate (compared to Yahoo Japan's own weather website). I also see question marks for some days in the popup that appears when tapping the weather of the cLock widget. A week or two ago the widget complained that the weather server was unavailable, however it came back a few days later.

As I say, the Yahoo weather is not so accurate, so I may try a different provider.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
yes, I use Yahoo with manual location too, but every now and then the widget says servers are unavailable, but doing what I said above connects to them, that's why I don't think it's a yahoo server being down rather it's a connection or app issue. I haven't been able to work out what the cause is though.
