Thank you. So "modem" is baseband? If the mdk nonhlos is what I need....what do I have now? Maybe I just understood something: by doing this I'm not really "updating" as much as just flashing the proper mdk modem/baseband over whatever the rom installed?

On a fresh load, try resizing the default cLock widget to make it taller. This enables the calendar display, which doesn't fit in the default widget window size. I get cLock crashes over and over until I either remove the widget or reboot. This also occurred on the last build.

To be fair, this is probably a CM problem and not because of any changes related to this ROM.

Important Clarifications

I am on [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]'s test team and I've tested Bluetooth extensively on each and every build. The dreaded "Bluetooth Share has stopped" error seems to be connected to the Google Search app that is bundled within different Gapps packages. Therefore, I've found that if I use OpenGapps pico which does not come bundled with the Google Search app and just download it from the Play Store, I rarely get the BSE anymore. I may still get one BSE every other week which is a LOT better than getting 20-30 per hour! If you download the Google Search app from the Play Store, you can still use all of Google's features without issue (e.g. Google Now Cards, OK Google, Google Search, etc.). I use ALL of those features. To get voice typing working, you must activate the voice typing keyboard and download the offline language files (Open Google Search app, go to Settings > Voice). Skype also works without having to remove mic permissions from Google.

Conclusion:

If you do not use BT that often, OpenGapps nano will be a good choice.

If you DO rely on BT, definitely get OpenGapps pico. (Personally, this is what I am using because I make 97% of my calls via BT.)

I'm staying on EXT4 unless I find a super compelling reason to go back to F2FS. Currently, my device has no lag and is blazing FAST! Thank you, Mr. side! :laugh:

That's part of OpenGapps nano and higher.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] tanchette:
Snapshoot 3 clean install , went to f2fs :

Still non mms auto download

Had a strange behavior of task bar shortcut. One disappeared, so none of them were usable. Then after going to parameters, everything went back to normal. Append twice.

Don't know if the bad mic with my bluetooth in car is still present, but will test and let you know.

Everything else look ok to me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Modem is baseband, yes.

The non-hlos modem is your LTE modem. There's also a GSM modem. They can be flashed separately or together as a package.

Updating your modem does not update your bootloader. For that you will need a separate bootloader file. But updating the bootloader might lock down your device.

Custom ROMs can't flash modems or bootloaders. So whatever versions you have, that's the ones that came pre-installed on your device.

To clarify: You can flash a modem or bootloader, with Odin, while on a custom ROM. But your bootloader and modem can't be updated just by flashing a ROM in recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Corduroysack:
After being on this rom I can safely say it's solid. I'm on f2fs and I've had 1 freeze up and had to hold power button in to reset, since then I've not had it happen again. I'm using nano gapps and everything seems tight no heat ups no data drops and I've just done 12 min's of browsing and only used 5% battery which is great for my device. Nice one [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] and his test team ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Creeper36:
I agree with this.. If you don't use Bluetooth or you only use BT to play music or you use BT to make a call every now and then and DON'T have any problems then Nano is great.

If you have problems with Nano or you know you use a lot of Bluetooth then stick with Open Gapps Pico like sjamie suggested.

So i can activate "OK google" from every screen without having mute calls???
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mismamente:
Ok thank you. I will try to install opengapps nano, and then uninstall Google Search with Titanium Backup to avoid BT error. I need BT but I want also Trusted Face :)

Blutooth observation

This is from 2 dirty flashes, so take it with a grain of salt ;)

I did a dirty flash of snapshot 2 with latest banks gapps, immediately having BT crashes but using [MENTION=3297960]thaidroid[/MENTION] suggestion (removing system google search and reinstalling it from market), I was able to enjoy stable Bluetooth...for about week, it was rock solid, using it for handfree in car, with Bluetooth speaker.... then it started to crash again, once activated I got the crash after about half an hour, had to reboot and let Bluetooth off....quite strange cause it has been rock solid until then, and I did not install anything new nor modify any system parameter....

The degradation of BT was just in time for the release of snapshot 3, so I had nothing to loose by trying to dirty flash it and see what happen. So dirty flashed snapshot 3, new banks gapps, and performed the "thaidroid" operation: removed system google search, reinstalled it from market (all from Bluetooth off, so I don't know what happen without the thaidroid operation). Surprise, Bluetooth is working again, no crash the last 10h. So I wonder if the crash is not caused by a leak that is reset by a dirty flash, but not by a reboot....This would mean a leak within system partition of flash, not in RAM nor data flash, and its also consistent with the fact that having some app as system app instead of installed app change BT behavior a lot...Maybe this can help you [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mismamente:
Same happened to me. I did the same things as you, BUT I dirty flashed when it started to crash again (Snapshot-2) and the problem was NOT solved with a new dirty flash, so I think no system partition leak.

Now, I have installed Snapshot-3 and I have installed opengapps nano, and then I have removed Google Search from system with Titanium Backup, and I haven't installed it from App Store to try without Google Search at all.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] thaidroid:
I had the same experience, worked about a week for me also and the you get phone disconnected message in the car.

No mobile data

1st of all: Many thanks to Side and his team for their effort!

I'm not sure if it is related to this ROM, but I had the following failing mobile data history on my S4 i9505 (in Germany, Vodafone network):

1) S4-Stock-Rom = mobile data

2) plain CM13 = NO mobile data

3) OptiCM13Snaps2 = mobile data

4) OptiCM13Snaps3 = NO mobile data

"NO mobile data" means: I have an exclamation mark besides the H+ icon (and really no data connection)

I think I never flashed modem(RIL/baseband?) and have I9505XXUHOJ2

I did mostly a clean install (at least as 2nd attempt), and have tried APNs, LTE-OnOff, restarting & battery-out serveral times when it failed...

Would any log be of interest?

Thanks in advance,

stef
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
please always read the changelog...since i dont touch a thing,that means its not changed since the previous build.....

also look at CM upstream changelog....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
There are two types of files for modem/baseband. Modem.bin is the 3G modem and Nonhlos.bin is the LTE modem. Neither is the GSM modem. GSM/CDMA refers to the frequency bands a device operates on. On the SCH-I545 it is CDMA.

To find out what you have now type getprop ro.bootloader in a terminal emulator. The result is your bootloader. Should say VRUAMDK. I'm not sure about the international versions but on the SCH-I545 (Verizon) the nonhlos package needs to match the bootloader. If not you will experience strange behavior with WiFi and cellular/LTE.

If your baseband is MDK or NK1 and you flash the OC1 modem that is updating, that modem is newer. The thread I linked has info about modems that can be flashed to the VZW version of the S4. They are in Flashable Zip format. Odin is not required to install them and the end result is the same. If you prefer using Odin extract the bin file from the zip.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
All of the modems in the thread I linked can be flashed in TWRP. I have always done it that way.

One other thing. Use the tool talked about here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2975136

It backs up all the related info to your modem, etc. Just in case something goes wrong somewhere. I had service issues after flashing a ROM a few months back and did not have to go all the way back to stock to recover.

One Question. Unless I am confused did you not say you have the I545?

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------

One more. If any of the links in the modem thread are no good, PM me. I have the mdk+nonhlos and some of the modem zips stored on ExtSD.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tech 4 9:
Correct. SCH-I545 vruamdk jfltevzw.

Thank for your guidance. Most of my exposure to the root game has been with a bl locked NC5 i545 so I'm still learning about the unlocked bl and how to care for and preserve it. I'll look again but I thought the modem thread said to only flash the nonhlos modem. Is that the "package" with both .bin files?

What got me started on this was that I read "if you flash muniz ri's oc1 rom it'll update modem and drivers" I feel that I need to this since I come STRAIGHT from vruamdk to jdc roms. I KNOW I'm outdated somewhere. ?

Loving snapshot 3. Very happy so far. I did try a risky undervolt yesterday which caused some stability problems, but since upping them it's been very solid. I'd like to maybe improve the speeds a bit in stweaks but i just can't be botehred right now haha :)

WhatsApp problems appear to have gone away as well. Wonder if that was the recent update to WhatsApp though? I did notice they pushed one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
i made some changes on audio mate.thats why
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] grandoth:
Thanks for the info so far. It has been helpful:

I am on SCH-I545 vruamdk jfltevzw bootloader as well. I need a validation to understand. The guidance I thought I read was to make your modem match your bootloader suffix (i.e. MDK in my case), and that guidance applies to just the NON-HLOS packages (3G + LTE modems)? For the modems (3G only), you can flash any without the strange WiFi and cellular/LTE behavior? I've never flashed a NON-HLOS (terrible acronym IMHO because I keep thinking it means without something...heh) and assume I shouldn't as I still have the original MDK bootloader.

E.g. right now my baseband is I545VRUGOF1 (modem 3G only if I understand correctly). Maybe this is the source of some of my connection problems. I see some people say OC1 and OF1 works ok, but others seem to suggest NC5 works better for them. Flashing modems has always made me a little nervous so I have been avoiding it probably unnecessarily.

Have you tried toggle Airplaine mode?

Yes airplane mode many times (also with reboot), and also updated bootloader/modem to XXUHPA1 -> no success
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] :
One question. Why do i have to enter my pin everytime i turn off the airplane mode? I can turn it on, tun it off, have to enter the pin. Everytime. Without a reboot. Any idea?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] markiarom:
I think everytime you put airplane mode on, SIM card module go off. When you toggle airplane mode on, you turn SIM module on, like when you turn on your phone. I think it's the same behaviour
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] -sandro-:
What are your undervolt values?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
There are both types available. I have the I545VRUAMDK_modem_apnhlos.zip plus the modem only zips for NK1, OF1, and OC1.

If you want to flash any of the JDC ROMs you only need to be rooted and have TWRP. CWM is VERY outdated. I came straight from the factory MDK firmware to MM no problem. Also get the SuperSU 2.52 zip and flash it after flashing the ROM and Gapps (I use Opengapps Pico). There's something about later versions of SuperSU not liking the I545. I have that on my ExtSD, too.
