Thats the magic of android - there's nothing bad I prefer v6, for some people v7 may works better for some not. Our S4 are not perfectly the same. I'm quite long with this AOSP and it's great rom.

To summarise why I stay with v6 (maybe it will help you with further development): on Magisk v13 I had FC (which is understandable for beta) but more problematic were root lose after some time (need reboot to fix) and very unstable MagiskHide - it works for few hours and then sometimes I was in need to do reboot twice to get safetynet pass. On V12 it also sometimes loos integrity but it is possible to fix by simple switch this function off and on. What's more as you could read earlier from few version the overheating issue is increasing so if i could suggest, you should focus on thermal control testing.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
You know that stock kernel is BB kernel for S4 (ex alucard)... but sincerely, is long time I don't see changes in the sources of the kernel...

99% the kernel from stable 5 is the same of 6 and 7... so I can't imagine reasons of differences on thermal control (that is in kernel code).

If you can try, extract the boot.img of stable 6 and flash it over stable 7... anyway, the real development on S4 base is nearly complete, and we willl maintain it as much we can, but as it is. We switched the focus from long time on MI5 that is our main dayly driver, so don't expect much on S4.

Just for your info, we are extending JDC Aosp on other devices... OnePlus onix, 2, 3 and 3T... and we "hired" also the relative devs that joined our development team... so BB is not alone, but we have a big help on feature expanding. :o

I'm not sure if I'm following this right.

Right now with Magisk V13.2 I get a lot of "Google keeps stopping". It's normal and I should wait an update and uninstall Magisk for now?

[MENTION=1239770]RuKaDa[/MENTION] did you try to tight the GPS screw on the back of your phone ?

It is really makink a huge difference in GPS sensitivity in our S4.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] heyyo:
[MENTION=1239770]RuKaDa[/MENTION] Try first the application GPS test, to check the actual reception you have for each satellite and how much satellites you retrieve from. And then tight the screw, and check again.

On my phone I can have a GPS fix even indoor.

Here is a screenshot of my reception after 10 seconds indoor.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] RuKaDa:
No i didn´t, i´ll need to buy a screwdrivers set for this :(

Already tried GPS test, the awkward is that with stock ROM i get a fix in about 5 seconds (i assume that isn´t hardware issue), with all the MM and NG ROMs that i´ve tried (almost all available in XDA) i can´t get it to fix. Maybe i´m doing something wrong, i´ve the latest modem and bootloader installed, i´ve flashed the ROM with TWRP 3.1.1.0 following every steps (wipe everything), but don´t know why can´t get a fix :(

Thanks for your help, please let me know if you think that i´m doing something wrong...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] heyyo:
I'm a simple user of the ROM, I didn't do more than you did. The baseband I'm using is: i9505XXUHPG1.

Maybe the baseband is not correctly installed.

Hi guys I had stable 6 and updated magisk but Google app started to force close. So I uninstalled magisk and noticed it unrooted my phone :(. Now I installed Stable 8 but I dont find the magisk manager app. What can I do? I did a clean install.

I have only a trouble... I cant find magisk manager, i try with OTA section but don't happen nothing.

Thanks.

P.D. I'm sorry i don't speak english but i try. Hehe

Hi... I download and install lastest apk magisk manager from xda forum and now work perfectly... Thank you... I cant install with OTA section because show an error...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
In addon it's saved the apk... if you download it you must install the apk manually (you can find downloaded files from OTA app into SD on OTAUpdates folder)... if you reboot in recovery with automatic install, nothing happens... Isn't a flashable zip. Hope it is clear. :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
I also had to install manager manually (I unzipped rom package, it's in install folder). But so far, after all update it pass SafetyNet.

Magisk no root access after update

Hi there! Thanks for the update, but here we have problems with 2 samsung S4, same problem for both, the root access has gone after updating.

We have then as you recommend downloaded the Magisk-Manager apk (https://romhut.com/addons/magisk_manager_v5-1-1-apk) and install it, but same problem persist. After installing it, we opened the Magisk and "no root access", and turning off the phone, then restarting it and opening the Magisk, it´s all empty with this lines as before:

"Magisk is not installed"

"Not rooted"

... and offers to update to "Magisk version 13.3.zip", we've download it but nothing happens, just says it has being downloaded to a /Magisk directory of the phone.

We have gone thru the update like 5 times, after update done same things all those times (Magisk manager apk install) and so lot, and same problem persists. There is no way for returning back to our root access and we really need to have it back as we use it daily with other apks.

Please, could you share some feedback on solving this situation? ;)

Thanks!

TWRP version?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ibiza690:
Hi, thanks for answering so soon and for allways having this awesome support.

Now... nope, we don´t have f2fs and about TWRP we have in our 2 SAMSUNG S4 (PhilZ Touch 6.0.4.5)

One more thing, not sure if this feedback heps, we reupdated back to the JUNE version before this last update and all went well, the root permissions are ok and the Magisk flashing into 13.3 went well too, restarted and root permissions were fine and version installed 13.3

So, something it´s happening to us with this july latest update ;)

Thanks for your time!

You are dirty flashing a magisk 13.x rom over a magisk 13.x rom?

You NEED latest TWRP 3.1.1-0 and before you flash, wipe system / cache / dalvik, other wise you will find Magisk can't patch your boot.img.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ibiza690:
You are dirty flashing a magisk 13.x rom over a magisk 13.x rom = YES

You NEED latest TWRP 3.1.1-0 and before you flash wipe system / cache / dalvik = BUT, can´t do a SYSTEM WIPE as we will loose everything, and we have had the rom since the 1st version installed in our mobiles with this PhilZ and we didn´t find any problems at all, and as you only "recommended" TWRP recovery, we didn´t install it, because we liked more PhilZ.

Is there anyway for no have to loose everything on our mobiles for installing this update or not for having ro wipe /system?

Thanks for your time again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
I confirm that Magisk v13.3 REQUIRES LATEST TWRP.

I read that you like philz... but is not updated to support all... as you prefer, but recovery you need once, magisk working you need dayly! Did you get the point?

Thanks

Maybe you should try backing up all your apps in Titanium Backup and move that backup folder to your SD card then follow [MENTION=3545504]smeroni68[/MENTION] 's advice
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ibiza690:
Thanks but,....

Hi, thanks for the feedback, the point its that we use the phone for working and have lots of things on them, plus not enough space for titanium backups on sd or internal storage, this is why we didn´t like to option to format all, just for updating a recovery app (if needed)...

While downgrading from STABLE7 to STABLE6 i only did wipe cache/dalvik and all my apps are still available.

Hi, maybe I missunrestod this:

"You NEED latest TWRP 3.1.1-0 and before you flash, wipe system / cache / dalvik, other wise you will find Magisk can't patch your boot.img"

If I download TWRP 3.1.1-0 and try to install the zip thru recovery it gives error, so how could go thru this step?

AND, after installing the TWRP, if I wipe files in /system as you recommend, will I loose al my phone datils and/or things saved on the phone?

Thanks for any help ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Who told you this?

Absolutely not! Only /data wipe will let you loose your rom data and app.

If you wipe /system and you flash after the rom and gapps, after boot you will find all your data and apps.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ibiza690:
Thanks again!

So, I have to install gapps back too? not only the rom as allways when updating?

And how about installing the TWRP recovery? because everytime I try to install thru revovery the zip with TWRP it gives error, so I don´t know to to change from PhilZ to TWRP. Any idea?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Has philz the choice of image flash? Normally twrp file from twrp site is a .img not a flashable zip.

Wipe system erase rom and system apps (as gapps are)... That's why you need to flash them too.

Sorry, but as we talk is getting more and more confussing...

1. PhilZ hasn´t got for installing an recovery.img (is there other way for changing recoveries?

2. Now I have to ERASE ROM? (how do I erase rom?)

3. And install GAPPS again?

3. and erasing SYSTEM apps too?

It´s turning too confussing. Could you please take a bit more time to explain, we are from spain and can underestand well english, but this is just too confussing for us.

Thanks again :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
You are confused because you have no big experience... anyway, get from playstore the app Flashify and use it to change the recovery... after that, come back here and let's continue.

Have a very nice day and again, many thanks!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Leone/kyleproxx:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
So after one day with Stable 8 - Magisk v13.3 seems to be stable so far, and keep safetynet pass, no need to reboot so far. After install I noticed a bit higher load on CPU but after few hours it's stabilized so it was probably connected with building cache after install. Bluetooth/GPS/LTE works fine. I think I will stay with it and test more :). Great work!

Can you check if with GPS you are able to get lock with GLONASS? Gps status & toolbox can be used for this. Green circles are locks in GPS satellites and Green rectangles are locks with GLONASS.

HI guy, i have issue with call recorders apps, i install some call recorder app but not work and just record my voice

which call recorder work for this rom ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
That's strange but I can see GLONASS satelites but not lock on them. GPS fix is very fast but GLONASS was not fixed even after hours outside. It looks like a bug.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
May I ask how you determine what satellites are in use to localize the position? In the app there is nothing that really tell you... the only information number is the number of satellites over the maximum number... just asking to check... :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
It is explained clearly in the post I quoted. GPS status shows id number, type of satellites and it's status (in view or in use).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
So you mean that if round and rectangular satellites are in green means they are used?

Like this:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
That's true. You can also look at the bar under radar. First section is GPS, second GLONASS, next are BDS and Galileo (I'm not sure about order as our phones had only GPS and GLONASS). Gray means "in view", yellow "trying to fix", green "fixed".
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
Thanks for explanation, really appreciated... :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
So is this screen from stable 8 or not? If yes why we can't get glonass fix?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
This is from MI5, with S4 i don't get GLONASS, but my test phone is out of order and need to do a clean install (when I'll find the time!) Sorry. ;)

EDIT: The rom is the same, but the hardware not... MI5 is firmware updated to N... S4 is blocked to LP... that's one of the reason why a new and updated phone it's a better choice!!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Karls0:
Anyway it's still worth to stay with stable 8 even without glonass. GPS itself has good accuracy (up to ~6m in my test) and fast fix. It's just my meticulosity :) I like when all is working even if it's not so necessery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] smeroni68:
That's fine... as you know, S4 isn't anymore a dayly phone for us... we use it only for a raw testing of the rom before releasing... that's the reason why you all are the real only dayly tester on S4... it's confirmed from [MENTION=6180151]smstiv[/MENTION], that on Stable 7 and 8, glonass satellites are in view but do not fix.

Would be great if someone (that has a backup of stable 6) can test a fix on gps and report here the screen of GPS Status app... so we can understand if and when glonass stopped to get fix... it's enough just one tester... thanks guys.

EDIT: in case of need, I can publish STABLE 6 on romhut... let me know.

Issue

I'm unable to open Magisk Manger whatsoever, despite fresh installs, reboots, force stops, and clearing cache. Magisk Manager will hang on the splash screen for roughly 15 seconds then I will receive the "Magisk Manager isn't responding" popup with both Close App and Wait, neither of which successfully opening Magisk Manager.

I had this issue prior to updating to 5.1.1/13.3, it was said to be a conflict with Substratum, but after all were updated I'm still unable to open Magisk Manager. Prior to updating Magisk to 13.3 I was having horrible performance, constant "Magisk Manager isn't responding" popups, and Notifications would not pop until the device was unlocked, however those seem to be fixed after updating to 13.3, my only remaining issue is the inability to open Magisk Manager.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

The ROM is super smooth, everything is fully working (still the only thing to check is GLONASS).
