the bloat you are talking about:

bootlogo:

Boot animation is an animation of .png files spinning around while boot process is running.

NO bloat/NO custom executable there...to be honest its smaller(size) than CM's bootanimation

ledify:

Do you consider ledify as bloat ? really ?

ledify source: here

Ledify is just a script to make LED colourful on boot process.NO dirty thing here.

.Please beware how u talk for things u dont know.

Custom kernel:

for some,alucard is bloat.thats why i also provide stock kernel to aroma.did u see it or u just press NEXT NEXT NEXT ?

toolbox:

Contains edits for IR driver.some people ,possibly not you,are using IR driver and they use that app.

As its a system app,and you have a rooted rom,u can simply remove it with a root uninstaller from playstore

or ?

adb shell
rm -rf /system/priv-app/Toolbox

I wish i helped you clean that rom.Redefine what BLOAT means .

i follow your posts and you are just crying around that something is not working.mate..you are not FORCED to flash those roms...really.

i dont hate you...but i believe u dont understand what we all do here ,in this COMMUNITY

what community means --> here

people like u can be reason for those few devs on s4,to stop what they do.honestly

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
bootlogo wont change.its not CM nightly mate :)

also,''reporting bugs'' is not same with ''complaining''

You are from canada as your avatar says so.you know better english than me :)

Have fun around.end of discussion

PS

About CM devs.thats life...i said it again.devs are also human.they need rom for their devices.i will also stop.BB will also stop...thats how a device is dying.it all depends on people supporting,people who still use device.whats the point to dev s4 when only 50 people are flashing it?.devs are getting older and older and their free time is fewer than before.sadly the % stat of kids messing with dev is lower than ,when i was a kid.kids now are taking selfies

Okay, I'm back to 6.1

I think I found out why the phone freeze. When I open an app for the first time, I'm getting the permissions pop-ups. If you tap accidentally out of the box, this one dissappear but remain somewhere behind the interface screen you have opened. So, the phone wouldn't do anything until you accept or reject to give permissions to that app. Only thing you can do is open the notification drawer. You can't even go to settings and long pushing the power button show the reboot dialog, but the OK button does nothing. Same happens even in Play Store with the pop-ups.

Doesn't seems very stable for me yet and it's missing a lot of things, so I'm back on 6.1

My s4 is encrypted with the option built in to the security menu. I was wondering if it is possible to convert to file-based encryption? It doesnt seem to be in the developer options where it is on other devices... Is there a reason why it was removed?

Hello :)

I have the optimized beta 2 set up during the day 3 times restarted - problem-free.

The fourth time, after hours, screen remained black and I could do nothing more - no pin enter. Battery out, reboot, no change.

What do you do then?

I am in recovery, cache / dalvik deleted, restarted, again black screen.

Then the optimized 13 backup installed, which works - Today I try to re-install with FullWipe . .I love the optimized 14, it is so fast and camera super good! use snap cam pay app.

Hello i have an prob

after i install it on my S4 i cant found the google store app so i cant download anything what i can do ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] andy hall:
What GAPPS did you install as the play store is part of that.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] elv1503:
Those are two links to posts and if you long press on the links they will bring you to the posts. Both have zip files that you download and flash from recovery. The Govtuner mod has to be activated from Terminal Emulator, which can be installed from Play Store. First you need to change the CPU governor in stweaks to interactive or conservation, for example, because it won't work with darkness or alucard. After that go into Terminal Emulator type su press the green button on bottom left side of keyboard. Type govetuner and hit green button and select battery option you want 1 for Performance 2 Balanced 3 Battery. Hit green button. It will bring you back to start screen. Press X at top right of screen to exit. I'm testing it at the moment on new release of ROM. I don't seem to be getting same battery results now. I will post results in a day or so, if you have flashed new ROM. The Universal ROM just needs to be flashed. It amends the init.d file in system/etc directory in root.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] djumie:
I had that black screen twice since the update. Once when I was restoring apps with titanium and the other at an apps update in play store.

But I think it is too soon to worry about this or call it a bug.

About the new build update, at first I tried dirty flashing unsuccessfully. It was problematic cause I use to replace some CM apps with Google Apps like Chrome, phone, calendar etc.

So I did a clean flash with delta gapps and all the Google Apps zips that I use. The other apps I restored from Titanium. Exchanged es explorer with root Explorer and Viper in place of audio fx. So everything is running good and stable.

So, [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] and jdcteam, thank you very much for this great work of yours and just two questions:

- where is the recents tweaks opt? I'm not finding anywhere.

- is it possible to make a little fix for notification and ringtone volume separation?

Again, thank you JDCteam! You guys rock!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _ibu_:
I just wanted to ask what I could do in such a case - so I can enter the pin, which did not go with black screen.

Cache / dalvik also do not run. It did not help -

Again dirty flash + gapps also not

So today a full wipe.

Hi,

Same pb here, when I switch hotspot On I have a message "Error" instead of "Active hotspot". It was OK with OptCM 14.0. Hotspot is started in statusbar, but I get an error when another device try to connect to it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dabyd64:
All having those problems, you updated to beta-2, right?

I'm running great and perfectly stable on beta-1, hotspot works, camera works, calls works, never reboots, so I'll keep with it for now :).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] benlm72:
But it works with stock kernel, my first try was with alucard kernel.

For the hotspot to work you have to set the tcp congestion control to cubic in stweaks

Thanks! Didn't wanna press that assuming that it would clear the options above hahaha :silly::silly:

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

That's my advice. In fact a clean flash is the standard procedure with this build. Dirty flash work sometimes, but not to everybody.

Now a full wipe of dalvik, data, cache, system, internal and external Android folder deletion will always give the best flashing environment for everyone.

In my opinion, the best procedure is backup all the apps with titanium, make a nandroid backup and copy whatsapp, DCIM, music and download folders from sdcard to external or mtp. Then you can experiment flashing options without any worries.

Great job! Thanx a lot!

No freezes mate? How much time you used the new ROM?

Can somebody confirm this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Apad121:
Hi there

I have some random freezes too on this ROM after the update.

Sometimes when sleep for long the phone screen doesn't wake up.

In the course of a day, I had to hold down power button to reboot after 8 times...

No prompt "Allow USB debugging?"

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

Thanks very much for the latest build, it looks very, very promising already... :)

I noticed that this build/ROM(?) doesn't prompt the user to "Allow USB debugging?" -- and there's also no means to delete any respective RSA keys from the whitelist, or even manually from

/data/misc/adb/adb_keys

.

Is this mechanism (yet?) present in this ROM? Has it maybe been removed in Android 7.x?

From a security point of view I find it very concerning that I didn't have to confirm access via adb on my phone... This opens up a very dangerous attack vector...

Kind regards,

Ralf

Hey guys,

again huge thanks to [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] and JDC-Team for another awesome build!

Here I wanted to give you my experiences on Beta2:

It is the most stable and reliable CM14.1 ROM for S4 so far (tested crDroid, Resurrection Remix and AICP nightlies) and mostly everything is working. But I also want to report some issues:

Battery life not so good as in Beta1 (clean install -> wiped everything, including internal SD and reinstalled all apps)

AudioFX has no effect for me

WiFi-Hotspot not working with Alucard-Kernel

Facebook-App is laggy

Snap Camera is buggy (as mentioned by side)

Battery percentage in battery circle is not in the middle (some pixels too low)

charging-LED is going off for 1/2 sec sometimes when phone is on

These points are just small problems. I am using the ROM as my daily driver and I'm totally happy with it.

Only there are some settings I miss that are integrated in other ROMs, especially: (Maybe I just overlooked them ;))

Direct unlock after you entered the right pin

direct toggle of mobile data in (small) quick settings like WiFi and Bluetooth

option for NFC in quick settings

Sorry for complaining, I don't mean it so... And sorry for my english...

USB-to-Ethernet works out of the box in Beta 2

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

This is to gladly let you know that this ROM works out-of-the-box with an USB-to-Ethernet converter.

I disabled mobile data and WiFi, plugged in the USB-to-Ethernet adapter via an USB-OTG adapter, plugged in the network cable, the status line immediately showed a "connected line" symbol, and I could surf away... :)

Great job -- no more changes in this area, please. :)

No problem mate, not your fault. Btw, we can't clean install and recover/install apps from Google. Google restore it's not working. Can you please add it in the next build?

Yeah, we know. We are respectful, we just talk and catch bugs, I guess this way we contribute and can make this ROM better, so I kinda find your comment nonsense

Thanks guys, I guess it wasn't just me. I'm wondering if this bugs and constant freezes happens with stock kernel or just with all alucard
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
I believe it's alucard
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tobaste:
Nobody is expecting a fully stable build here. If somebody reports bugs he wants to help the dev because jdc-team can't test everything...

Also beta 1 was completely stable for me with really good battery life (better than beta2 but worse than cm13) and I think I will return to it.

Just waiting for a new build isn't helpful for the dev I think.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] okidokiss:

The bsod (black screen of death) was a big problem on a tablet of mine. Had to do with some strange formatting issue of the SD card. If the SD card was formatted from the device it went away. Not from twrp but from the phone on. NO idea if its related but the new format from the device fixed the issue for nearly everyone.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:

New build contains new sdcard file system.that is the most possible fault.i will disable that.SD will also work.

AND I WILL NEVER CHANGE IT AGAIN :P ...i had enabled-disabled it for more that 5 times :P
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] demlasjr:
It could be, since nobody format the sdcard when changing the ROM. My sdcard was last time formatted like 3 years ago (in the device, however)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fraydz:
could this be the reason why after flashing beta2 (clean install), my S4 suddenly told me my SD was corrupt, empty, but all was ok and all files were still here after a reboot ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] -Deco-:
Possibly, you can fix the issue by formatting the SD card through TWRP and changing it's filesystem format to FAT.

Mine worked just fine with ExFAT, otherwise those BSOD and freezes
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fraydz:
There's actually nothing to fix :good:

It only happened once after the rom setup : i couldn't access it. Now my SD is working great like it was with previous beta simply by rebooting.
