Been using this ROM for about a month now. 2 main quirks i havent had before. GPS tends to lose signal a lot. Most the time its only for a few seconds, but does make the GPS unreliable. And the phone is slow to wake at times. Like I will prespress the home button and the screen won't light up for a seconds. Any settings I can tweak or am I doing something wrong? Running august build

What's the difference between this ROM and [JDCTeam][7.1.2][21 August][Substratum] The Android Open Source Project NJH47F by -+BB+-?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Patrick x:
This ROM is based on Lineage OS , however the other ROM is based on AOSP which the source code that Google releases without any modifications.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mp1806:
What's the difference in UX?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Patrick x:
They are both fast and pure but AOSP by -+BB+- has less modifications / features just like stock android nougat , and the UX is about the same.

Which gapps and what platform (arm, arm64, x84,..) do I use and do I have to download them from the link or do I install them with aroma ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] SolGarlic:
I am using opengapps, arm, 7.1, and the aroma variant (although you can use other variant).

you have to download them from here: http://opengapps.org/

You install them after installing the ROM (flash them in recovery after flashing the ROM).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] PePeMoke:
Google "open gapps" download them from the official site and use "arm". Then follow the instructions very carefully in OP in this thread!

Ive been doing full wipe and it says move your files to a safe folder (i dont have external sd card, i have been following instructions no external sd card no computer), i just downloaded rom and gapps from the web, then after i have done format data everyhing is gone, cannot flash anything, cannot restore backup from previous rom. Now i have to use odin first probably or can i get rom from computer to sd card somehow? And then when i want to do this again how do i do it when it says format data and then flash rom, its not there anymore.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] laupuy:
Hi, did you read OP (first post)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vlk67:
I have never formatted data partition - I think that this step is optional. I did only wipe of data partition. If you wipe/format this partition, you lost all installed apps. your photos,music etc are stored in internal storage (you wrote you don't have SD card). you can't wipe this and you are able to preserve your data.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mp1806:
Of course I read it, I've been doing full wipe by instructions for no external sd, no computer access, the first thing it says is move your files to a safe folder otherwise you will lose them. Where is that safe folder? Format data wipes everything internal.

Have you tried setting the GPS server in STweaks? You can also use FasterGPS app to fix your phone to a GPS nearer to your location.

In regards to your phone lagging have you checked what apps are running in the background? Use apps like Greenify to doze apps if necessary.

Hi [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION],

As you might remember, I am a big fan and supporter of your work here. If you don't mind, I wanted to ask you what you thought of this compared to the last CM13 nightly (20161228). I am still using this because I find it to be largely stable and trying an early version of LOS 14 with many bugs put me off.

Just wondering what your gut feel is in comparison... not wondering about specific details on features :)

Thanks side and thanks for your work as always.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kheirkettab:
Oh my God what is this.What do I say and how to express this, it is cool, fast, light, no windows, pop up Thank you very much for their great efforts. Thank you. Thank you. A question can be installed on a device m919n

[MENTION=4906946]forfriends[/MENTION]

My 2 cents...

I came from last CM13 to LOS 5 and since then moved up to 6 and finally 7. The last one is running really smooth. My opinion is that it is running as smooth as CM13 or even better.

Formatting internal storage

If you have wiped your internal storage, you can get files from computer to your device by mount -> mount USB Storage in TWRP (and, of course, connecting the S4 to the computer :D)

[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] , according to the information for wiping from TWRP https://twrp.me/faq/whattowipe.html the factory reset wipes data and cache and that should be enough for a clean install. System normally gets formatted as part of the zip install. In your flashing instructions you recommend to wipe internal storage, too (which results in the loss of personal files like downloads and pictures - therefore your recommendation for a backup before :)). Could you please explain why you include this step for a clean install? According to my (limited) knowledge, the files stored in the internal store shouldn't negatively influence a new installation. Perhaps to ensure that there's enough space for /data during the installation?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] BuggBunny:
I'm not sure but maybe you have a global CDMA phone unlocked to use GSM as Sprint L720, the most and including this ROM do not include the global option into the build.prop file

It is a known issue that GPS does not work reliably in this ROM. Your tips cannot improve GPS.

[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] please add known GPS issue to post #1.

---------- Post added at 06:42 ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 ----------

Thanks for your report. Please test if you can make calls with a wired headset. Most of us cannot. The calls are silent. No Party can hear the other.

---------- Post added at 06:48 ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 ----------

I strongly recommend to keep CM13. There are GPS issues in this opt. LOS 14.1. furthermore calls with wired headset are silent.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] forfriends:
[MENTION=2796738]echo21[/MENTION] Thanks for the response with your recommendation. I already bit the bullet and tried resurrectionremix - that had a minor problem of stretched video call (wrong resolution?) with wechat but nothing else I noticed in my one hour of using it. I then tried LOS14.1. I can confirm that LOS14.1 version 7b using a wired headset DOES work when plugged in before the conversation. This was after I changed my build.prop, changing the line use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip to false. I have not tried anything else. If the GPS sucks I will go back to CM13 and report any other issues I find.

[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] may I suggest changing the build.prop to use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=false?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] echo_21:
THX! But your post confuses me.

use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip is already false on all recent versions, isn't it?

My s4 is on Version 4. it came with use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=false and wired headset calls are muted.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] forfriends:
Here's a screenshot of the latest optimised LOS (check filename) with the unmodified build.prop (check date modified): https://imgur.com/a/OiYc1

I can say with certainty that turning this to false will fix WhatsApp and WeChat app voice calling. Back when i was testing this fix on CM13 nearly a year and a half ago, I think I remember my headset not working but my headset has always been working since... but I didn't test this change specifically with the headset so this might not be the specific fix. Try it and let us know if it works for you! :)

Edit: sorry, reread your post and it seems like you already have yours set to false, so maybe this isn't it. Worth checking to make sure anyway...?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] echo_21:
Oh i see we are writing about different things. WhatsApp calls with wired headsets are fine.

But it is a known issue that cell phone calls with wired headsets are muted with this opt. LOS14.1 ROM.

EDIT on 2017/09/30: It seems that this "cell phone calls with wired headsets are muted" issue has been fixed at least in version7b . I had about 10 cell phone call with wired headset. None of them were muted in any way :good::good::good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] forfriends:
We are talking about the same thing, mate :)

Wired headset telephone calls work for me. The only thing I changed from unmodified OptLOS14.1 was build.prop, so I'm guessing either I'm lucky or it indeed was that change that did it. If you would like to check and try it for yourself, I'd be interested to find out the results!

Hello all. I have a old vrumdk phone with the mdk modem. I can get this ROM installed but I'm quite certain I should update my modem. Under 'about phone' it says baseband is I545vrumdk. Through searching I can find modems for the I95xx variants but not specifically for the sch-i545mdk. Would the the modems for the I95xx variants work? I did find the treasure trove of S4 bootloader/midems on Bon Bon's xda thread but wasn't sure they'd work.

Thanks all.

Edit:

Not a huge deal but also having mad trouble getting magisk to install. Light thread searching says just flash it in twrp but it fails. Has trouble at end with boot image and partitions I think. Just wondering if this could also be because I'm still on vrumdk...partition issue maybe?

If the screen is turned off while connected to WhatsApp Web or any kind of SSH, it's possible that your phone enters into doze mode to save battery.

Latest TWRP works and says backup completed in 1721 seconds

Hi again,

i flashed the newest TWRP with back cover of S4 took off and removed the battery after odin displayed "Success" and S4 started rebooting.

So i had time to boot in the recovery mode. I saw TWRP menu, clicked "Read Only" to be safe first and clicked Backup.

It displayed 12217 files with 7417 MB are backed up 4603 MB compressed.

Does that mean that now i can do a restore anytime i want and my S4 will be put into exact state of now? No matter how many times i wipe and how many ROMs i install? Or am i missing something?

Hi guys and girls, does this ROM support OMS themes? I believe I read a post from side saying that it does, but now that I'm looking for it I can't seem to find anything.

I think I installed the 07-11-17 Aroma version of this, but about a week after that, while using my phone normally, it died (0% battery) at roughly 10:30PM PST. I put it on the charger, and it just hung on the default Samsung battery loading screen. I got it to boot up into TWRP Recovery more than once, but only when the phone wasn't on the charger--if it was on the charger, it'd just go to either the battery load screen or the logo screen (Samsung Galaxy S4, SGH-M919) with those two lines of text and just hang. What's going on?

Last update: MAYBE I fixed it. I wiped data/system/cache/dalvik and reinstalled LineageOS (the current, non-Aroma version) and the installation went through without a hitch. I then "restarted" it in an effort to get it to go back into TWRP right away (to reinstall GApps-Micro, 07-28-17 and then Magisk 14.0), but it went straight to the battery charge screen again. One failure to boot into TWRP won't put me off, and it seems to turn on normally again, so now I'm just wondering what happened earlier. What exactly is the difference between Aroma and non-Aroma Lineage, anyways?

that "penguin interface" is a theme of aroma .theme's subject is Linux Ubuntu ,where most roms are baked from.
