Strange freezes

At first, thanks for your phantastic work!

Now here comes my problem:

I upgraded from the November-Version (where everything was fine! ) to your Christmas-Edtion. Clean install, pico gapps, and exposed.

But after installing all (Apps restored with TiBa and a second time with PlayStore) a got freezes. Mostly when I use an App intensive or when I switch between Apps.

So I went back to the November-Version and everything is fine aigain.

Waiting for a New Year-Edition...

Swen

PS: Sorry for my bad english
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
How was the ROM's performance before you restored your apps?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mbaeri:
I got one freeze bevor and two freezes when I installed missing Apps over PlayStore. Later on the freezes came in night or i.e. when I wrote a WhatsApp.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
Did all freezes require a reboot or was the device just extremely laggy?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mbaeri:
I reboot was always needed. Sometimes I had to remove the battery for a new boot. Holding down the On/Off-Button was not always enough.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] demlasjr:
Can somebody please send me a backup of the Boot partition for a international I9505 please? After doing the dirty upgrade I lost root and the installation fails. I have no backup of the Boot partition... Damnit

Can anyone report if their pressure sensor (barometer) is working on this rom? Not that it really matters, I just want to know if it's a problem on my end (my phone mainboard is a bit damaged).

Hi guys, any suggestions for youtube background playback without xposed framework? (other than chrome browser annoying "trick")
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] faartsen4spam:
I never restore (or backup) system apps.

I did various new tries (with the suggestions made).

But even: Flash rom and let google play install apps (not restoring apps or data with tiba) only works temporarily (if google even gets to finish installing the apps)

So, i think i just give in on this one.

Thanks all for your help anyways :)

Is it worth flashing this rom whilst taking in account the change to lineage OS?

Hi guys/gals,

I was wondering if itÂ´s still worth flashing this seemingly fantastic rom on my device? Especially when taking in account that lineage OS is now replacing CyanogenMod?

I have never flashed a rom on a phone before (i have flashed roms on other android devices), so i am kind of finding my way on how to flash and what rom to flash on it.

I have the Samsung Galaxy s4 GT-I9505 (black edition) which might just refer to the color lol... Is this rom suited for me or is it wiser to wait for another Lineage OS based rom by JDC?

Cheers!

:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
I'am running JDC's Optimized 7.1.1. on my Black Edition now. I've also ran the 6.0 version, AOSP and and and .. No problems! So just flash what you want. I wouldn't wait for Lineage or what it's gonna be called because that could take a while.

Sent from one of my Sammy devices.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] a103:
It's a good solid ROM. I'm really happy with it. It's up to you to decide and flash. I'm not sure when Lineage based ROMs will come out. It'll be a while for sure.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
The answer depends on how long you want to wait. I say flash this ROM now then flash Lineage whenever it is released. You really can't go wrong with this ROM! :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DavidMarx:
WOW Thanks for the awesome and quick answers!!!

A very happy and healthy New Year!!!!

Cheers again!!!:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
next updates of both optcm13 and 14.1 will be Lineage based

Only one thing is missing in this rom - phonebook syncing with car

searching for tester who got issues with no-wakeup device (or aroma) with alucard kernel :) thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stefana888:
(cm stock kernel...)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] andr01d3:
Flashed OptimizedCM-13-20161125-jflte-Aroma.zip two times following all steps (full wipe, etc), selected SuperSU in Aroma but SuperSU app was not installed. If I install it from Google Play ask to update the binaries but it can't.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
there is an update mate :) look at androidfilehost
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Houndcatcher:
I've installed the latest update 3 times now. First was a dirty flash just to see. It worked fine except I kept getting non wakeup issues where I'd press home key to check notifications because the light was flashing but the screen refused to wake. I then did 2 clean installs which had the same problem :( I've now reinstalled but used the standard kernel not Alucard and all seems to be working currently :) In all versions of this Rom I've installed in the past I've stuck with Alucard but this time it doesn't like my phone!! :confused::confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
use stock kernel for now :) i am trying to see whats going on with alucard
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] andr01d3:
Thanks for the reply. I just realized that I did a mistake copy/pasting the zip filename, what I flashed was really lates update: OptimizedCM-13-20161224-jflte-AROMA.zip

Anyway I solved the missing SuperSU by just flashing the SuperSU zip file from Chainfire thread.

By the way, I have an issue with the built-in call recording feature, I can enable it from the dialer and it creates a recording .amr file, but no sound when reproducing it. Is this a known issue? Any way to fix it?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stefana888:
I guess Alucard kernel will risk the hardware soon... Seen weird signs on the i9505.

Hey, this is a great ROM, thank you side! I have only one question: can I use the Samsung Stock-Camera with this ROM? I miss the slow motion recording... ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
Nope. You may be able to find a camera in the Play Store with a slow motion option.

Weird signs?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] eTaurus:
[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]

Could you specify a scenario how to test the new kernel? Because I flashed stock kernel last time to prevent the problem with unresponsive screen after sleep I skipped installation of STweaks. Is it necessary for testing purposes?

Edit: Okay, flashed the new kernel but it didn't prevent unresponsive screen.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Trainer_Red:
Update: The clean install has helped with the freezing up and the Invalid SIM Card popup is a SIM Card Removed popup so I'll just try some other fixes for that since I've tried the foam thing.

If there is something I can suggest, can we have the option to choose whether the orange colour shows up or not when we turn on "Battery Saver"?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] andr01d3:
Can someone please help me to make call recording working on my I9505? I can use the record call option in the phone app but it creates only empty files, no sound.

hi guys,

I tried to install the latest version of CM13 Optimized (OptimizedCM-13-20161224-jflte-AROMA) Everything went fine. Then, I started flashing the GApps and I got an error saying that my ROM is on Android 5.0.2. I tried this time to only install the ROM without the GApps. After the installation, I rebooted my S4 (SGH-I337M) and got a bootloop. Any thoughts on this guys ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
I have never been able to get native call recording working on this ROM. However, this app works perfectly!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder

You must wipe Data, Cache, and System partitions then reflash this ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] andr01d3:
Thanks but I tried a lot of apps and none worked, so I'm not willing to pay 11€ for just trying another app...

The weird thing is that built-in call recording on this ROM worked fine on first releases when I tried it about a year ago, so now seeing that the ROM is marked as stable I wanted to give another try to it and found this problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
I completely understand where you are coming from. I also tried MANY call recording apps that did not work before I found this one that works very well. I must have reliable call recording for my job.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
I retried flashing the ROM again (OptimizedCM-13-20161224-jflte-AROMA) using TWRP 3.0.2.0 with a Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337M) and it still bootloops and says that this ROM is actually Android 5.0.2. I dont know what to do to get it solved ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
Did you fully wipe the device? Are you using Open Gapps pico (Android 6)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
No. I tried booting it without GApps installed and stuck in the Samsung boot logo though my LED flashes multiple colors but I usually use pico as my main GApps choice.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Etore:
I can confirm this app works very well on this ROM.

And in general it's better than any other I tried.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
Doing a FULL wipe and clean flashing the ROM with Open Gapps pico usually resolves most issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
ok thank you :) I am going to try it out. I think you wanted to say Open GApps not Open Happens haha:laugh: never mind.

Hi guys,

I tried myself for the 3rd time to install the last JDC Team build for CyanogenMod 13.0 on my Samsung S4 SGH-I337M ( Canadian jfltecan). My device is not bricked because I managed to later install CM 14 Optimized and 14.1 normally. I did a factory reset, wiped Data, System, Cache and Internal Storage. I then installed the CM13.0 ROM on my phone. I installed the 6.0 pico GApps, but the installation quits because the ROM is supposedly on Android 5.0.2, later on when I reboot my phone is stuck on the Samsung Logo (Bootloop). I really dont know what to do guys:((
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
My car's phonebook does not sync properly either. Luckily, I make all of my calls from my phone and speak through my car's Bluetooth connection. There are too many steps to make calls from my car's outdated menus.

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

When it is stuck at the Samsung logo, do a battery pull and it should boot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
OK. I am going to try this out. And hope it works
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
I don't think this ROM is compatible with my S4 (SGH-I337M) It's such a shame that I can't get it to work because this ROM is almost perfect. During the reboot, my phone is stuck on the Samsung logo and the LED flashes the Nexus set of colors. Thats' it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
Try flashing TRWP 3.0.2-0 for jfltexx then full wipe and clean flash ROM. This is exactly what I did for my SGH-i337M.

Unfortunately, I think my Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337M) is kind of messed up or cannot install CM13 Optimized's last version (25th of December) properly. The thing is that my phone installs other ROMs properly without any problem. When I start the GApps installation, it says : *** Incompatible Android ROM detected *** ; This GApps pkg is for Android 6.0.x ONLY. Please download the correct version for your ROM : 5.0.2 (SDK 21) ; ******* GApps Installation failed ******* ; - Copying Log to /external_sd ; - NO changes were made to your device ; Installer will now exit... ; Error Code: 20 ; - Unmounting

Yes, I notice this behavior when using the AOSP camera. The pics are of amazing quality so I haven't complained.

Did you previously flash a Lollipop ROM (Android 5.0.2)?

Have you completely wiped Data, Cache, and System partitions before flashing OptCM13?

Did you flash TWRP for jfltexx as previously mentioned?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gexo173:
No. I previously flashed a Android 5.1 ROM (Google Play Edition). I wiped everything : Cache, System, Data, Dalvik ART and Internal Storage. I formatted data too and rebooted to my custom recovery to be able to use data again. My TWRP recovery was the following : twrp-3.0.2-0-jfltexx.img. Guys, do you know whats the problem?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
I saw this happen on the good old S4 once. (RIP old friend)

What I did was:

Backup everything important to PC or you will lose it. Do this for IntSD and ExtSD.

Make sure you have a STOCK build to install. I had a rooted nandroid of the stock build for mine. For me it was the SCH-I545 so I didn't have to Odin back, reroot, etc.

Format (not just wipe) cache, davlik, system,, data, IntSD, and ExtSD. My best results were to not use F2FS and format ExtSD as vfat.

Install stock firmware. If your only choice is Odin you may have to reroot, reinstall TWRP, flash newer modem, etc. That's the reason I had a stock nand. Once on stock allow it to boot and connect to the network. No need to set anything up.

Reboot to TWRP and flash Opt CM13 and OpenGapps Pico or Nano and all should be good.

So I flashed this rom on my s4 sc-04e. It booted fine, but then there was no signal. Currently I'm using rr 6.0.1 and there are random reboots every 10-15 minutes. So what seems to be the problem if I don't have any signal at all using opt cm13? I have the latest modem for sc-04e
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
I don't believe this ROM is compatible with the sc-04e variant. Check the OP.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] aerithanne:
The only persisting problem was the radio/modem. Anyway, is there any custom kernel that'll work for sc-04e running RR 6.0.1? I am thinking of using alucard kernel

Two days ago I installed the latest build OptimizedCM-13-20161224-jflte-AROMA.

Since then I had a lot of Google play services as stopped crashes and I found that the fix is to check GPS permissions.

So in System Settings/App/Google Play Services/ make sure that in Permissions options EVERYTHING is ENABLED.

This solved the issue for me.

The right package would have the ARM architecture, Android version 6.0 and in this thread Open Gapps pico is being recommended as all the bigger packages are suspected to give issues with different things.

So when I go to the open gapps link it give options between arm arm64, ×86, ×86_64. And also the android versions. My phone is Galaxy S4 Verizon variant. What's the best option between those for me? Or what is the difference?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mynacol:
ARM ARM64 x86 x86_64 are Processor architectures. The S4 (all models) has ARM.

The Android Version should be clear. You have to use the the right GApps Version for the right mayor system version. If you flash cm13/android6.0.1 you have to use the android 6 gapps package.

Regards, Mynacol
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] thepianoman77:
That makes sense so if I download the most recent version of this RIM it should be 6.0.1 correct. So for instance since I use blue tooth a lot I should choose ARM, 6.0, pico
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mynacol:
Correct
