WiFi stucks and won't connect, toggle is greyed out

Hey,

since some days I'm facing problems with WiFi.

Frequently, after rebooting the phone with WiFi on, WiFi stucks in connecting-status. The toggle in settings is greyed out (screenshot attached).

You can't switch on or off WiFi. Deleting the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf or turning on and off airplane mode doesn't have any effect.

Rebooting the phone doesn't solve the problem either. Only tuning off the phone and waiting about 5-10 minutes and then turning on the phone again solved this issue.

I attached a log and last_kmsg.

Maybe somebody can have a look in these files and explain to me what's causing the problem or how to solve it.

Thanks in advance.

Restore efs only if you have problems related to it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ts_firehawk:
On stock ROMs, greyed out WiFi meant that the modem version was different from the one that the ROM was expecting - lets say that the ROM was based on the XXUHPG1 firmware but the modem version is from the XXUHPF4 ROM - it wouldn't work. Try updating your modem to the latest version, you can get it here.

On which modem this CM 13 is based?

I think I should have the latest modem (it is I9505XXUHOJ2) because 1-2 months ago i flashed Samsung Stock OS and installed all the OTA-Updates which were available. Then i flashed back CM 13.

I also had this thought that it maybe is a wifi-chip problem... Is there any possibility to check if it is a hardware problem?

My phone always gets really hot (about 75-85 degree Celsius) when playing quiet simple games or creating backups.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ts_firehawk:
CyanogenMod should work with any recent (Lollipop) modem. I have the latest (PG1) and have no problems. If your phone gets really hot on simple games and backups, I think you should take it to be serviced, since it can be something related to hardware - my phone never gets beyond 45ºC while making backups.

phone hangs with flip-cover closed and call initiated over HFP (Bluetooth)

Hi,

I first installed CM13 for my Galaxy S4 over a month ago with build cm-13.0.20160803-NIGHTLY after using CM 12 for quite some time.

After a while I was wondering why my phone hangs almost any time I try to make a call while connected to the car via Bluetooth.

I finally figured out that the problem is connected to the flip-cover I use. As long as the cover is opened, I can make calls via Bluetooth. When I close the flip-cover, the call fails approximately 9 out of 10 times.

Today I updated to cm-13.0.20160916-NIGHTLY and the problem still persists.

All you need to test this yourself is a fridge magnet placed on the left side of the screen slightly below the volume-down button. You know that you hit the right spot when the screen turns on after you removed the magnet... And of course you need a car or some other tool to initiate a call via HFP.

Thanks in advance

Jarod.

This ROM uses CM root instead of SuperSU. And you can't set a pin on it as far as I know.

CM also doesn't come installed with any themes, you have to download them.

As for you lockscreen clock and quick settings, I would try a clean flash.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ts_firehawk:

leaves sdcard on portable, bad experiences on AOSP thread by JDCTeam

edit: quote -+BB-+: " !!ADOPTED STORAGE: READ CAREFULLY!!

Adopted storage has been fixed on rom side, however TWRP still have some issue with this function. When using Adopted storage remember that rom zip and gapps must be moved to /data/media/0 folder (the real internal memory path), TWRP mounts the real internal memory as internal storage even when user use the adopted storage, zip can be normally selected and flashed. Do not touch external storage from TWRP when using adopted storage, it' s the data partition for apps moved on external sd.

BUG: When formatting the sdcard as adopted storage sometimes the device soft-reboots. DON'T WORRY, let the device reboot and adopted storage will be available and working, the reboot is not caused by partitioning and happens AFTER the sdcard is formatted and partitioned. Option is safe and can be used, tested a few days with a samsung class 10 64gb sdcard, just remember to backup all your data, when a clean install is made the sdcard will become unusable and must be formatted again!"

I can not check because my S4 is under warranty.

So I think that the problem could be the source MMB29T which have been issued 2015-12-15.

Root Explorer 3.3.7 is dated 2015-10-19.

You try to use Total Commander, which solves a lot of problems with the root and is dated 2016-01-08.

What's the problem? Having the theme? If you don't want remove it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
If you do a dirty flash the theme will not be uninstalled.

Since those are nightlies, I assume you don't clean flash every build.

There is no problem, I was just pointing out that - at least for me - CyanogenMod comes with a theme.

Well, I kept the theme once to try it, didn't liked, added it to my OpenGapps clean list.

Go to settings menu.Scroll down choose About phone, scroll down to the build number and tap in the build number ten times. A small onscreen notification will then tell you that you enabled the dev menu. Press back once, so you are in the settings menu, scroll down, tap on dev settings, scroll down till you find the pin to enable root. That's it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Hemuli:
I have noticed that selecting "Camera microphone" in a voice recording app enables stereo sound, as in video recordings. Perhaps those voip apps pick this setting and the bottom mic gets chopped off because the sound is downmixed into mono (left channel only)?

Hi everyone!

I love my good old Galaxy S4, but it's getting sort of sluggish and I'd like to keep it up to date (it's running on the official stock rom 5.0.1). I'm very interested in running CM13 on it, but I have no experience with CM whatsoever and I have a couple of basic questions. I couldn't really find any answers anywhere, but that might be because the questions are just too simple and basic. Anyways, I really don't want to buy a new phone at this point and my S4 should still be my daily driver for the foreseeable future. I just want to make sure that when I install CM13 on it, I don't have to make any meaningful concessions.

I understand that the TouchWiz-related stuff won't work anymore (smart stay etc.), and I honestly really don't care about those features. But are there things that worked perfectly fine with the the Samsung version of Android and won't work as expected when I install CM? For instance, will the cameras work as before (with flash, HDR modes etc.)? What about bluetooth and the notification LED? And what about the "hardware" buttons (Home button + touch keys), will I be able to use them as before or will they be replaced by the standard onscreen buttons? Or can I choose?

Are all the standard features of Marshmallow supported? I'm particularly interested in using a micro sd card as external storage... will that work?

Again, I'm sure those are all really basic, maybe even stupid, questions. I just couldn't find any good answers and I don't want to regret installing CM13 and finding that I want to go back to Touchwiz.

Thanks everyone in advance!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Hey there,

First of all, when installing a custom ROM, there will always be a risk of something not working right.

Most of the time it does, but sometimes you run into problems.

Camera usually should work fine but it's a basic camera. Not many options available. Of course, you can download one from the play store if you want more options.

Hardware buttons and notifications LED should also work fine.

Adopted storage should work too. But keep in mind that, if you ever want to switch ROMs, you will have to format your microSD card again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] disguisedview:
Camera works good. Maybe install another camera-app (e.g. I use Snap Camera HDR and I'm happy with it).

Bluetooth works and LED works.

You can choose between your hardware-buttons and the on-screen buttons in the Settings. You can also set the functionality for the Home button and the menu-button in settings/buttons (e.g. open camera on long press, open/close menu on short press, ...). You can set it up that the buttons have the same functions as in Samsung-Stock-ROM.

SD card as external storage works as in Samsung Stock before. You can also use your sd card as extended internal (you have to decide at beginning). I use it as external storage so i don't have to format sd card when I ever switch back to STOCK Samsung-ROM or to another ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] t_E:
Thank you. That clears up a lot!

It's a shame that you can't transfer the "official" Samsung camera app... I think it works well and I like the different features. But it's good to know that there are alternatives.

I think I'll take this weekend to prepare my phone, do backups, and try and see if I can get CM13 running. I'm sure it will take me a while, so I'm curious if I need to do the whole thing all over again whenever I'd like to install an update. Or are updates to next releases possible without all the hassle (meaning, I just press "update" in the settings somewhere, and it just carries over all my data and settings to the next version)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jarod42:
Anybody?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ralfbergs:
I don't think he asked about that. It's not available in original Samsung S4 firmware builds anyway, and he was specifically asking about "external storage," so most probably "portable storage."
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
I may have misread that.

But, he did ask if the standard marshmallow features are supported, and adopted storage is a standard marshmallow feature :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] t_E:
Haha you're right... sorry, that's exactly what I meant.

I will give it a shot this weekend and see how it goes. Thanks a lot everyone!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] charm-:
Hi. Sorry guys.

regarding the camera. Why nothing changes when I change the contrast, saturation and sharpness in the image settings? and why there s no HDR option?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] t_E:
OK, I did it.

It's so surprising to see that old S4 running fast and smooth again :) But something seems to be wrong:

First try: I followed these instructions (https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_jfltexx) and installed the latest snapshot plus GApps Mini. At first boot, everything was set up nicely and seemed to work perfectly. However, right after each and every reboot of the device I got an error message saying that "processes aren't responding" with the option of choosing "wait" or "OK". It didn't seem to matter what I picked because the device still seemed to be working OK. I thought that it's never good to have unexplicable error messages right after a fresh install that won't go away, so I did the whole thing all over again (according to the instructions, TWRP recovery, wipe etc.).

Next try: Install went fine. I didn't get the error message from before anymore. With the camera, it's hit and miss - it worked (meaning I was able to open the app and take a picture, nothing else, not even touching the camera settings menu) only 50% of the time. It would freeze and then stop working altogether. A force close and "clean data" of the camera app wouldn't solve the problem. Next time I tried to access the camera (through the CM camera app or from Whatsapp) , I got the error message "Can't connect to camera" until the next reboot.

OK, so that's not good... alas: lather, rinse, repeat: full wipe, re-install...

Current state: the device is set up nicely, everything looks beautiful and is running so fast. BUT: those camera issues are still the exact same. Sometimes I'm lucky and I can take a picture, other times it freezes and there's basically nothing I can do except reboot. It seems completely random when the camera does that... I can't reproduce the issue.

And I noticed two other annoying issues:

1. Sometimes I can't turn on Wi-Fi: there's no reaction whatsoever when I tap the Wi-Fi button from the dropdown menu or choose to turn it on from the settings menu. It's fine after a reboot, but I had that issue twice in the last 2 hrs.

2. So, as I couldn't turn on Wi-Fi, I used my mobile data. As soon as I opened Whatsapp, I lost reception completely and then it said "no sim card" in the dropdown menu. After 5 minutes or so, it reconnected to my carrier. I opened the browser to see if it's a general problem with my connection, and the exact same thing happened again as soon as the browser tried to open a page. There's no problem with the basics (phone calls, text messages), however. I can send and receive calls and messages without immediately losing my connection.

Are there any fixes? :( Or do you have any suggestions what else I could try apart from doing the whole entire process again?

Edit: The camera freezes consistently when I try switching from "photo" to "video" mode. After tapping the video button, the app freezes and from then on, I can't use the camera at all anymore (from any app) until a reboot
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Flouque:
If it's only "system process stopped working" at boot, i have the same message and it doesn't affect the device beside having to press a button.

Your problem with connectivity can be due to a wrong modem version. Go to settings -> about phone -> baseband. Just search for lollipop and + if it's very old

Edit : link for latest modems and how to install : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/general/ref-galaxy-s4-i9505-modems-bootloaders-t3315987
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] t_E:
Thank you! I installed the latest version a couple of hours ago and so far, there have been no connectivity issues - it's working just like it should :)

Turns out the camera issues seemed to have something to do with the CM standard camera app, after all. I'm now using "Open Camera" from the Play Store. So far, no hiccups and no more reboots :) Plus it's kind of a decent app that I could even place on my lockscreen as quick access...

Hello,

Sorry for bothering in this thread but I have a problem with my coworker S4 i9505 running official CM13... The phone reboots itself quite often and some apps force close... I'm sorry for being vague, but since the phone is not mine I can't provide any kind of log, dmesg or similar... Is this a common problem? Or is my coworker the only one?

Thanks in advance for your time!

Is it possible to automate the process on nightly updates?

I really would like CM to use the same update method as OmniROM: delta updates (faster downloads) and automatic flashing of archives in FlashAfterUpdate directory (I mimic this behavior with CM Downloader). So we could have a collection of zips that delete su binaries and install magisk and such.
