A quick update after more than a day on the ROM.

No major issues, smooth, decent battery life, camera works. Minor issues include auto timezone not working (which I already mentioned earlier) and some music skipping/stuttering on the alucard kernel which seems OK if I switch to the stock kernel. I assume some adjustments in STweaks should take care of that in alucard but I have not tried it yet. Using Poweramp.

Also something weird which I am unable to explain yet is that audio does not work in Google Duo video calls. I have tried installing and uninstalling, re-registering, giving all permissions, but nothing works. Apps such as WhatsApp and hangouts work fine though, so not sure. I am using Pico Gapps, not sure if it is anything related that but i have not validated it.

All in all, great ROM.

Thanks!

Remember for the future though: when giving suggestions we need to remember that the ROM is still in its early features and the dev is not required to resolve it. After all they are making ROMs as a hobby...

Hi

I try several time to install this ROM, standard and aroma one: each time I reboot, the scrreen freeze after a while ,as if it does not detect my finger anymore
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] eTaurus:
You may have a fake replacement screen as I seemed to have once. Download LOS stock kernel from Optimized Settings and flash it in recovery. Hopefully your problem will be gone.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cbouillot:
Thanks for your support: how do you do this ?

from "aroma" version ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] .Ejekt:
Ever since upgrading to any of the 14.x builds I've been completely incapable of flashing or using SuperSU. I'm assuming it's because I'm using the Alucard kernel, as switching to stock is as far as I can tell the only thing I have yet to try. Has anyone else had any success with this? I've tried flashing every version and their system variants. The standard zips abort after a decompressing ramdisk failure; the systems zips cause the phone to hang at boot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] eTaurus:
Open settings, then open "Optimized Settings" (or what it's called) and download stock kernel. Then boot into recovery and flash the file.

I don't have my wife's S4 at hand so I can't give you the exact settings name.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Ashyford:
Had the same problem coming from 13.x non-aroma builds (where aroma build install always failed for me). Finally got it all to work last weekend doing the following.

Use TWRP 3.0.1 or greater

Upgrade to latest stable SuperSu 2.82 sr3 on 13.x.

Reboot.

Clean install of rooted stock MDL zip.

Reboot.

Go back to recovery.

Full wipe per Lineage instructions.

Flash non-aroma 14.x Lineage zip.

Flash open gapps zip.

Wipe cache.

Reboot.

Toggle Developer Options and go to it in Settings.

Permit root access to apps AND ADB.

Wait a few minutes.

In Settings, go to "Tweaks" and select "Stweaks".

If it loads or requests root access, profit.

I suspect the stock MDL zip flash is unnecessary and that the keys are: right recovery version, non-aroma, and app+adb root access permission in developer options. Hope something here helps. It took me six weeks of trying.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] .Ejekt:
I don't have any issue with root access, just using SuperSU specifically. I'll give this a try though, thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] cbouillot:
Thanks; now It is working great !!

However, I can not use it because I am using an app managed by my company ( work from blackberry). This app is detecting that the device is rooted. I have uncheck root mode in developpper menu and reboot it : unsucessfull.

I am surprised because this "managed app" is working with Lineage OS. Does someone has an idea ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Don't use the included root solution, if any. Install Magisk instead and use its hide feature with your app.

Yes you can do without,its called dirty flash....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] guest4711:
See first post. When coming from another ROM you have to perform a full wipe. When just updating it's mostly not necessary.

To be on a safe side, you should wipe system, cache, dalvik and flash current ROM, current G-apps (if you need them) and your preferred root solution (e.g. current Magisk), then wipe cache and dalvik (again) and then reboot. (Same as coming from another ROM but without wiping data/factory reset, so your settings and apps are preserved.)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Xenotrumpet:
I've always wondered: is it difficult to implement security patches to a ROM? Does it vary?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] guest4711:
It depends on the parts which should be patched. Some are for the kernel (and some devices need older kernels (e.g. 3.0) cause the proprietary drivers for e.g. camera or modem don't work with newer ones). Some are for the middleware of some devices, other for system services. And all parts can be heavily modified to suit the needs of a specific device (family).

So the easiest part to patch are errors in common services as e.g. mediaserver or shell.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mynacol:
Since Google introduced the Android Security Bulletin, Android version 4.4 KitKat and all newer android versions get monthly security updates. These updates aim to be easy to implement and include solely security updates so only small changes occurred.

Lineage needs some more time, but then all Lineage (or Lineage based) ROMs include the new security patches.

Side "only" has to merge the upstream changes of the main Lineage tree to include all changes to the main Lineage tree including the (by the Lineage team included) security patches.

Hope I helped and clarifying what happens (as far as I know), so please correct me if I'm wrong

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] moodlion:
The device is not secure!

If you do the scan on the S4 itself it will say that it is patched however if you actually use another smartphone and scan for devices it is still vulnerable!

The app itself seems to be checking whether the rom has the needed patch level and not whether it was correctly applied. It is the same for all custom roms many cve are unpatched because you have to manually merge the patches which is a lot of work.

That's weird. On my device (i9505, also with opt. LA 7b) , snap camera has access to external sd. Have you already tried to delete memory and cache for this app? When you start the app the next time you'll be asked to grant permissions again eg. for access to internal storage.

Vendor Phone from Telefonica/O2 Germany

Hi,

3,5 years ago i bought my S4 from O2 Germany so it is probably not "vanilla".

Unfortunately as i tried to install this ROM I failed.

In the first post it is mentioned that locked bootloaders are not supported (but Telefonica/O2 is not in the list).

Can anyone tell me if Telefonica/O2 supported?

Shall I take an extra step may be?

Thanks in advance

El Corzo
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] -Deco-:
Follow this principle:

If it has a locked bootloader then no.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] el.corzo:
How do I know if it's bootloader is locked or not?

I read all ADB commands last night but could not see an option.

Tried:

./adb reboot bootloader

but all I saw was a "Downloading ..." screen. After more than 10 Minutes I had to took the battery off to get my S4 work again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] echo_21:
Do you use a wired headset?

If so, that's the reason. This ROM only allows silent calls with wired head sets.

As a work-around boot your S4, don't plugin your wired headset, start your call with regular speaker. Once you hear your partner plugin the wired headset and continue the call.

Sorry for not telling better news!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] -Deco-:
It means it is waiting for something to be flashed from your PC - adb does not work when in bootloader mode, look up the usage of fast boot. Be warned however, do not root your phone unless you know *exactly what you are getting into.*
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
From your description it sounds as if you're attempting to flash the ROM using the stock recovery. If that is the case, you need to change your recovery to TWRP using Odin and a recovery image from twrp.me. As for the bootloader, the only Galaxy S4 models I am aware of with a locked bootloader are American models for AT&T and Verizon. Your device should be supported without an issue.

A final salute to Android 7.1 on GT-i9505

Model: GT-i9505

Baseband: I9505XXUHQC1

ROM: LineageOS 14.1 v7b

TWRP: 3.1.1.0

QI Charging: Yes

Root: Magisk

MicroSD: 64GB SanDisk Extreme Adoptable Storage

Installed latest LineageOS 14.1 v7b and all working well, which is a fitting final salute to Android 7.1 on the Galaxy S4 GT-i9505.

Thank you [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] and team

Installed Alucard kernel and Magisk and phone running without problems in my usage case/environment.

Have Android Pay installed with card loaded and now just awaiting a purchase.

QI wireless charging working well (it's hardware so always will)

NFC tags(actioned through Tasker) working as expected, as to, is my Bluetooth touch to play NFC Sony speaker.

Incoming voice phone calls taken and answered all good.

LTE seen on mobile data connection as test, but normally reduce to 3G for battery saving.

Camera2 works as expected for my basic "snap a picture" needs.

Battery indicated 6days on idle in previous version, so expect the same with v7b.

Dose is actively enabled with most idle time seen in Dose(Deep) mode, which is just part of the LineageOS standard build.

The only thing that doesn't work(in my usage environment) is Bluetooth Message Access profile.

It's NOT currently functional in any current LineageOS build, for any phone, so no surprises with the GT-i9505
