Does anyone have the stock Bootloader and modem for the R970TYUGOH2 firmware? I really don't want to go back restoring a Nandroid backup (that took all day long)

I'm running CM13 (13.0-20160201-Nightly-jfltexx)

If I flash the bootloader & modem (making my own TAR's from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/62033/I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505YXYHOK1_BTU/) should the 'Baseband version' in Settings / About Phone be updated as well? If not, is there a way to check if the flashing worked or not?

GAPPS Issue

Hi All!,

I posted this yesterday to CyanogenMod: (http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/121485-s4-cm13-gapps-issue/).

Has anyone see issues like this? Bottom line, I cannot find a GAPPS that will not crash after install. But install goes okay each time... It is only once CM13 is booted that all the GAPPS "stop working".

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!!

Also I mean the GOH2 not the HOH2 (so sorry if I'm being a bother here :/ )

Also I cannot flash the bl at all now (see attached screenshot ) , am I able to flash the Modem by itself or will it cause issues? Maybe flashing the Bootloader doesn't want to work because the phone uses CDMA only and not GSM? Is the modem CDMA compatible?

Is it a requirement to flash the Bootloader and the modem at the same time, or can you just do the modem by itself and not flash the BL? Earlier it wouldn't let me flash the bl or the modem and just said fail, the drivers were correct and odin was ran as the admin so, I'm not sure why it doesn't want to work. It is a CDMA phone, not a GSM and has a different stock BL and Modem than why you have provided.

I am in the USA not Poland so now I really don't feel comfortable flashing this now that i have read it is meant for poland carriers.

Do I need to factory reset before or after flashing cm 13 and gapps? Or can I just wipe cache and dalvik cache? Also is it possible to restore apps and data that I have on stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 on my backup?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sh4z:
[MENTION=7199781]X-Lucky-Messi-X[/MENTION]

Yes you can restore apps from previous versions of android. I would not restore system apps from Samsung TW ROM to CM13 though. I've used titanium backup to do this before. Most regular apps are compatible between android 4,5 and 6. Worst case scenario it doesn't work after restore and you have to uninstall it. If you restore something that is system related you could end up needing to factory reset to get your phone working. If you must restore system data, Stick with the yellow system XML restore stuff it's ROM version agnostic (call log, SMS, MMS, bookmarks and wireless access points can usually be restored safely). Some of this stuff may already be synced with your google account so you may not need to restore it.

Factory reset will be required if you're coming from a Samsung ROM or anything that isn't CM13 jfltexx nightly.

between nightlies you can try your luck and do a dirty flash (upgrade), unless it's specified that the previous ROM nightly is incompatible. I haven't seen a post like that from the CM devs for quite some time though.

Basically zero. When I talk about "standby time" then that means "not using the phone at all."

Sure, you're right. This kind of test just shows what the OS and device is capable of. So if the OS has been optimized, and there isn't any issue with some system process (or user process) massively hogging the CPU, then you will get long standby times like this.

Of course active usage will decrease the time the device can run on battery. But the pure "do not use at all" standby time is where you're coming from. The higher it is, the longer you can use your phone in an actual real-world use scenario.

Hi,

I installed the ROM with factory reset and wipe data/cache. Also, I changed filesystem to f2fs for data and cache partition.

Everything works well, battery drains a little (but it should be better in the next charge cycles, isn't it?)

Only a BIG problem with bluetooth: connection is ok but if I try to make a call I don't hear anything and the dialer hangs.

Somebody has the same issue?

Thanks

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] measel:
There is no setting for turning off camera sounds which probably has legal reasons.

Use your favourite explorer and navigate to /system/media/audio/ui and rename camera_click.ogg & camera_focus.ogg. Ie to camera_click.ogg.bak.

You have to do this after every system update.

It should be possible to figure out how to change alarm tone: Open an alarm and change the ring tone. voilá. ;)

Not sure what is running on your S4 but gaming on S4 has never been smoother since I started using CM13. Also remember, this phone is almost 3 years old and some games are pretty demanding on the phone.

CM 13 nightly 2016-02-08 bugs

I flashed yesterday's nightly. It was a pain to use CM recovery (I will never try that again). If anyone ever hits that wall: I could not flash open gapps, and CM flashing also failed on the first two tries. The recovery was so buggy that it did not even show proper warnings.

I had to manually install flashify as an .apk, then install a proper recovery (TWRP in my case). Now all the flashing works OK. I used the open gapps 6.0 nano, as recommended.

I can confirm that the Cclock weather panel is broken. It just does not show in the widget. However, the weather within CM (i.e. in the quick settings) works fine, and from there you can also open the Yahoo Weather overview for the week.

WiFi and Bluetooth so far without any issues. Using the Titanium Backup to restore previously saved access points and pairings from CM 12.1 also worked (at least for WiFi).

However, GSM / regular phone service died. It cannot find any network operators (no even if searched for them manually). It also never logged onto any network.

I was running this:

GT-i9505

6.0.1

Baseband I9505XXUBMGA

Kernel 3.4.107-cynogenmod-g0ba2001

In settings, my phone says "Network unknown", "signal strength 0", "cellular network type unknown", "cellular network state disconnected".

Update: after a hint here in the forum to update baseband, I did update the bootloader and the baseband. It all works fine now!

I followed these instructions, just for the record:

Old Version: I9505XXUBMGA

New intended version:

PDA	I9505XXUHOJ2

CSC	I9505OXAHOJ2

Source: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192025&page=558

Bootloader = BL = BL_UHOJ2.tar

Modem = Baseband = CP = CP_UHOJ2.tar

Instrucktion:

Bootloader in BL and modem in CP. You can flash both of them in one row.

Make sure that you will get PASS in odin before remove cable.

No lags, OK battery performance (from what I can tell)

Edit:

I just saw that the "pass swipe up to unlock" was just included in the latest nightly. That is cool!

I really also miss the feature that you don't have to hit the ENTER button when having entered the PIN. I know this has been mentioned before, so that's just a +1.

Edit2: updated baseband, fixed issues. Not ROM related!

In my case, it does download the package and then reboots to recovery (i have CM recovery) and then it just stays there, without starting the flashing process. If i selected the Apply update in recovery, it just gives an error. Should i replace the recovery with a TWRP and re-try?

Hey there,

as I have described in my post a few pages ago, I strongly recommend TWRP. I had a bunch of issues with the CM recovery (verification failed, a message came back that there was not enough space in /system and all kinds of errors and the inferface often looked broken). There were also limited logs only, and they were tough to access. That made it hard to ask for help.

I flashed TWRP with flashify. Works very nicely. Make sure you select the right TWRP version for your phone (jfltexx?).

If I were you, I would upgrade to the latest official Lollipop firmware for your device (Kitkat can not be the latest?) and then root and install CM13.

It will probably :) fix your problem.

BTW:

I had the same problem as you - I were using an old modem (not Kitkat though).

I flashed the latest - at the time - HOK1 modem - and now everything works.

I also tried to flash the latest HPA1 modem a few days ago - did not work for me, on my device, in my country.

We can discuss this in the modem thread :)
