GearCM 13 20160303 Alpha (untested): https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911969919

External SD Card and Camera fixes have been included.

Again, this isn't a tested build so i can't guarantee anything. (Boot/ExtSD/Camera or anything else).
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] turkalperen0:
I flashed rom and device is opening wait guys
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] BraianV:
Thanks for testing.

Please later report if it does boot, and camera/sd working or not
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] braulio_holtz:
Tested, everything works, the camera, the SD Card

the camera is not 100% stable after the first photo, I got out of app, I went back and gives force close, I closed the app and then returned but without being able to take the picture. After a reboot, the problem persists, but it seems that it takes more stressed, or just is coincidence. Always on the first run (after the reboot) works normal, but if not close normal and use the system, it may be that when going back to camera not working

Bug Report

What is your-- Camera suffering stress -> camera FC

With the latest build the camera works well, but depending on use may stop working, how to re-use the phone and then the app .... like the Lollipop changes to the Marshmallow are considerable, I decided to share the log

The first logcat is only running app now without success. View attachment logcat.txt

The second logcat is with the app running smoothly View attachment logcat2.txt

-------------------

I did the reboot, entered the camera app, I got in some apps, I used another camera app, I returned the previous one, and it works normal, then it is a problem that varies

I tested also alternating several times between apps and the camera works okay, so it's kind rare, it is not 100%, but it may be that the log take to find some small bug
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], [MENTION=2169006]braulio_holtz[/MENTION]

I've been using since alberto added the link.

The camera is working perfectly. I took several photos but to me it was not possible to use another app like cameranext.

The cards are running smoothly.

The only bug I found was that when selecting some of wallpaers that comes with the rom selection closes.

My final conclusion: This build is better than gearcm 12.1 and certainly the best aosp i've ever used in i9500.

Thanks alberto and all users who are helping. I was already thinking of selling my i9500 but I will stay with him for long.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] rabbit_detroit:
what about the doze mode and the battery drain issue ? any luck on that..!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] :
How's the battery life anyone ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] dikivan2000:
No drain, but some users do report draining battery, I guess it is a variable problem, same as with the camera
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] alizaki123:
battery is draining 1% every 10 min probably when it is in sleep mode, when i turned it into aeroplane mode it stops drain which means that wifi and cellular signal ( i don't know it's another name) is the main cause of the battery drain. i believe that doze mode is not active yet.

any way this is the only problem that i face in this rom but the camera is working perfectly as well as the performance.

Thanks [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION]

Same batery use when active use but when screen off doze makes it lose 1% in 8hs so thats perfect to me.

I used to have heavy kernel wakelocks on latest grcm 12.1 and touchwiz roms
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
For those who are having problems with the camera: see the rendering option 2d is not active. Video is still not working but the camera is stable with me.

Thank you [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] for new release. Camera works very well but built-in app is unstable. Use lgCamera instead. Also Synapse is not working. Can you add support for Synapse, Alberto?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
It is why cm no longer uses busybox. The alberto already talked about this in previous posts. I think the priority is basic functions for now. Use the audiutor kernel for now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] The Rifleman:
I'm using Kernel Auditor now but Kernel Auditor does not have "smearing fix" which Synapse has. If there is another fix for smearing I can use it, no problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] LeoYL:
I'm using March 3rd build and I believe it can be a daily driver to me. Camera and flashlight work, SD card works. The only problem I discovered yet is video recording, but for me it's not a big deal. Thank you Alberto, for your persistence on this ROM.

Just booted , camera, sdcard, wifi, mobile data and offline charging everything working perfectly.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
This is an impressing ALPHA release then, i'm really happy for this.

Thanks to all testers.

My Device's Back Camera doesn't work at all anymore, it just makes strange noises. I'm able to use only front camera when i manage to switch to it.

I'll probably switch to the Xiaomi MI5 Pro (4GB RAM Variant) in May 2016 more or less (unfortunately i can't buy it before, i need to wait my Birthday in order to reach enough money), so i'll probably start to work on it as soon as kernel sources will be released by Xiaomi.

Don't worry about GT-I9500 support, i won't abandon it unless something else gets broken.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] 0_RoXoR_0:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] If I had enough money buy mi5 only to follow you work. Thank you so much for everything.

And for those who have problems with wakelocks just use greenify and powernap. This is the best aosp for dailydriver.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] fernandobarone:
The 3rd build can be a dailydriver?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
Yes i am running smoothly. In my opinion it is better than 12.1.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] braulio_holtz:
yup, I'm getting better performance, the camera is not 100% but it looks even better than in CM 12.1 (which is not 100% stable), the battery seems to be having a good perfomance

External storage as internal

I tried to set up my external SD card as an internal storage, but Settings FCed when it asked to move files. I had a warning that my SD card is slow before that, but I'm not sure if it was related to the FC.

Has anybody been able to do this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] rabbit_detroit:
about the battery, its all good, but the WIFI and mobile standby consuming max power,well for that turn off the wifi and bluetooth scanning, and under wifi tab to advance -> wifi on when sleep change it to never or only when plug in. This may restrict the draining, If anyone have any other solution then give some heads up. thank you
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] braulio_holtz:
I don't know if this question can be related to CyanogenMod or any implementation, the Moto E has the same question, but with an older build works, and works upgrading standard .... if the first build (01/01) work put as internal storage, and then upgrade to the latest build
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] robsonsilva:
I use the combination of grenify and powernap. And also some simple settings in ka. The camera really is not 100% i use the app snapcamera, with it can take photos and record videos without problems. I think the camera google also might work. With some minor corrections the next builds will be perfect.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] alizaki123:
what is good is when i turn cellular standby and wifi the battery drain is completely stops which means that nothing but this two hardwares that consume the battery...Really good

Closed camera app and no surprise, Fc and cant connect. Then i made a FastReboot and test again. Same procedure and no fcs and no Cant connect. Its awesome this build. Sd card its fine. Battery seems nice. Smooth animations. Only bug i saw was in wallpaper picker. And fc there. No big thing. Thanks a lot to all who helped with this. And Thanks overall to the awesome, amazing, genius, hero and savior [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] XD

If have formatted SD as portable storage, then it's not writable/accessible from apps, only accessible through inbuilt explorer..

If formatted as internal storage, we can have it as internal storage for installing apps and store it's data?!.. I read some of news through net.. Yet confused.. This is Android M feature?! ?

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Romflasher69:
2. go to; settings>apps then scroll down to find browser. Once you get there, tap on browser and then select permissions and make sure "storage" is enabled.

It's not a CM related issue. You need the required gapps for it to work, I personally use the Pico Open gapps package, which enables now on tap almost by default. All you need to do is to go to settings>google>Search and now>now cards and enable now on tap, then it'll guide you through the app setup and then you're ready to go. Of course that'll only work if you have installed the required gapps which I've mentioned above.

Just as a side note, I don't use on-screen buttons so to get it work I just long press the menu button as it triggers the search assistant which is google now on tap.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Alberto96:
I spent lots of time on this ROM, probably more than GearCM 12.1. That boot problem made me absolutely crazy.

I'm happy that you're enjoying it.

For the bug reports, if a bug has been already reported do not report it again unless you want to say that you're not facing it.

Again, Enjoy :) (and do not ask for ETAs)

For the Camera bug it will be a bit difficult for me to fix it because my back camera sensor is damaged (auto-focus gets stuck almost any time, i need to reboot my device to get it working again, but it lasts just for a picture. If i don't reboot the sensor starts to make strange noises, something like scratched metal. It happens also on Stock ROM so it isn't ROM related) so i won't be able to test it completely. Samsung's hardware is a piece of crap. I won't buy anymore a Samsung device, unless i get it for free.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] zorlak:
Same here. My next device will be a Nexus 5P (if I have the money).

After that flash any modem, see the first post, then cm13 and gapps.
