Why am I just stuck on Starting apps screen? Waited for more then 10 minutes, cleared dalvik cache, pulled battery but no luck! didn't even boot a single time. :( Please help. I will be thankful.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
which build? the one from OP or the cm14.1 (probably from OP)

have you full wipe (system, data, cache, preload)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] munimjaffer:
I downloaded from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242687544 (the latest build which is available in the first post in this thread.)

Yep I did a clean as always.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
You downloaded the old version...

Latest version is 5.7.4
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] munimjaffer:
Ohh.. So what to do now? Could you provide me link for that? Please cooperate as u always have because I'm noob. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
2nd post and look...there's 5.7.4 Latest Build :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] munimjaffer:
Thank you so much bro...! You're great.

One more thing. If I flash Lightweight kernel over this ROM, how would I restore the stock one? I'm asking it because I'm unsure if using different kernels while installing custom ROMs cause problems. I mean that if any custom ROM like for example any TW based ROM is developed with respect to the stock kernel, would it cause problems if I'm on any other kernel?

Sorry bro but I don't have even 1% knowledge about kernels just heard that'll increase battery life and performance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
Flash this, backup the kernel of this rom in twrp (backup -> boot) and keep it, in case you need to restore, just go to restore and select the backup
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] munimjaffer:

Hey guys...I tried the latest cm 14.1 build for i9500 from android file host(cm-14.1-20161211-UNOFFICIAL-i9500.zip) but couldn't get it to boot. I've even tried with the gear cm13 boot image but no luck....did anyone get it to boot...? And if yes then how ? Just can't wait for cm14.1....!!

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
what are you talking about?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
Sorry for being rude, I stand corrected.

cm14.1 is still not usable with this device. we would have to wait for it to be stable for daily use (or at least usable).
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] rickyrock:
No problem brother.........just wanted to know if anyone got it to work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] burhanuday:
When u went to recovery to clear cache did u see an error such as "unable to mount efs" in the logs?

If this is the case then u have lost ur efs.

generate new efs using adb

doing this u will lose ur imei number but still be able to use the phone but not make calls

the only way to get imei back is to go to the service center as our device does not have engineering mode to replace the generic imei number
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] GreekDragon:
Hey guys, lately i started to push CM14.1 builds for i9500 on my AFH for my testers. If you think you can help. Ping me on telegram: [MENTION=5651185]GreekDragon[/MENTION] .

I usually label my zips with "BROKEN" word when they don't boot.

Once we will get a bootable build, i will probably make a thread.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] h_bekhit:
there is a file uploaded today without "Broken" word, is it installable?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
Sorry for asking again but I really wanna know.

Does this rom support f2fs?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
since this is gearcm based,i think it can because im using f2fs for my /cache partition
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
Sweet. Tried using it for /data and /system?

Also what recovery are you using?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
GearRecovery. I havent tried for system and data because when installation it formats the system as ext4, data? i havent made a backup.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
OK. But the system partition is 9GB, can you resize it or will I have to just move apps there?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
You will need to use a .pit file and use odin to resize the partitions. I'm not risking it since it might hard brick the device.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
OK thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] utvic99:
If you do it following the steps, you won't brick the device. There is a way and description on how to do it in this thread (search 11gb pit and find jwchen17's post).
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
No doubt about that but the risk is still there. Also what about the resize option in gearcm recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ammar18:
it wont do anything

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] munimjaffer:
Please help me. My proximity sensor isn't working fine as screen is raised slightly upwards from the upside(where SAMSUNG is written). So, when I receive a call the screen goes off unless I tightly press it in wards. Now the qustion isn't that how to fix proximity sensor, I'm asking how I'm gonna disable proximity sensor. So far unlike STOCK ROM, I haven't found any bulit-in option this ROM to disable this option so that screen doesn't go off during call. Please tell me how to disable it? NOTE: Don't suggest any apps based on Xposed Framework!

Everything is pretty fine in this ROM but the battery life while the device is idle is worst! Every night, I sleep for 8 hours and everytime after 8 hours I see that my battery is 30%-35% drained. Although before sleeping I turn on airplane mode and battery saver too. Also I use greenify. I can't turn off my mobile while sleeping for some reasons.

Any guesses?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] aalxx:
I'm in the same boat. I have no idea what is causing this, I'm using amplify and greenify and I have doze mode enabled.

Edit: I did another clean flash and enabled doze, amplify and greenify and it seems to work well.

Settings - Configuration - Miscellaneous - Doze Powersave

Waiting for your new build pro.

Update: today i see your new build lineage

i'm using twrp 3.0.0

the Stock.

It's confirmed that the stock and full version causes issues.

Download Pico, Nano (Recommended) or Micro and your problem will be solved.

Clean install tho.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] New Life:
so anyone found a solution for battery drain issue ?? when device is locked and with out doing anything just for calling battery keep drain like 10-20% in 1 h maybe .. sleeping with charged 100 % wake up with like 85 -75 % ?? any fix for that ?

beside mic in-call and recording is too too low .. any fix or mixer_paths.xml with better values ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] h_bekhit:
try to disable the WiFi scan in the location settings. go to settings and choose location then in the menu-> scanning and disable WiFi and Bluetooth. this will save some power.

thnx man .. and what about mic so low .. they cant hear me as normal as it was ??? any solutions ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] New Life:
guys any solution about low mic sensitivity the callers barely can hear me ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ridershahmir:
Flash the zip file , that will solve the issue. ( most probably)

Solved mic issues for me in cm13
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] shaneggg:
Anyone test out the zip?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Cryptonite26:
It works, however it breaks Infrared and sometimes sound can have issues in media players etc, and you have to restart your phone, imho download the latest gear CM from Here and just use that instead, the Mic quality is improved quite a bit and to make whatsapp calls and hear the other person all you have to do is enable touch sounds. The only thing basically not working without any third party fix is the google voice detection (OK Google)

I love RR Remix, however the mic quality killed it for my usage scenario (I run a business with this phone) I still have RR Remix on my S3 though.

If Greek Dragon Decides to update the marshmallow RR with the latest GearCM as base, I'd definitely swap back to RR Remix

Dear DEV.

After the lastestfix the mobile data corrected.

But the rom causes the processor to overheat.

For this reason the phone switches itself off occasionally.

This is also a major problem for everyday use.

Is there a solution? I do not know.

And for that reason I do not really use Marshmallows.I am very sad.

Any Fix for VoIP problems?

Hi [MENTION=5907474]kingdevil731[/MENTION]

This ROM is really good in almost everything but I have been experiencing VoIP issues and it's really frustrating. Is there any fix for this? Applications like YeeCall, VoiP MOBILE, FB Messenger can't audio call. Video call works but on some select apps. "YeeCall" showed a popup recently that it did not have access to microphone. Checked the permissions but microphone one was "allowed". So any way to fix these permissions problems? I think this might be the reason for VoIP issues.

Thanks! :D
