Can confirm that, too! im not 100% sure about busybox, but systemless hosts makes SN fail.

i also noticed, after some time (i do not know, how long this "some time" is) SN is failing, but before it was passing. during "passing" and "failing" i did nothing with my phone. for example this night. i woke up during night, and just tried SN: fails. rebootet phone -> SN passed. Later at the morning, while i did nothing with my phone: failed untill next reboot. as i do not know if its a magisk-only or a "rom<->magisk" problem i want to share this information with you. maybe some1 else has the same behaviour?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] okidokiss:
I did, boot loop ater 30 minutes[emoji12]

Then, clean flash

How can this be? Look at my battery graph over night. Maybe use the app "ForceDoze"
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mnm.matin:
I have an SPH L720 with working GSM. All you have to do is open the zip file for the rom and add the following line under Radio

ro.telephony.default_network=3. Make sure you do this before installing the rom otherwise you wont have permanent gsm.

Next you have to get this flashable zip http://www.internauta37.altervista....or_android_global_phones_v4.2.7_by_mentor.zip

(credits go to Mentor)

and one more flashable zip for GSM rils (So you can receive calls) which I have attached. I extracted those from RR Rom.

Make sure you dont reboot in between.

If you dont get bars at first boot go into the hidden menu Testing typing the code *#*#4636#*#* and set: Phone info -> Set prefered network type -> GSM auto (PRL)

works for me

I got the same phone sph-l720 cdma Tello service had to add the APN setting for the tello service and LTE works like a charm as it did in stable 1 stable 2 I did clean flash so far very good , great work!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sleepyg72786:
[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]

Reporting on Stable2

SM-S975L

Aroma

Clean flash + restored several apps via Titanium Backup

Alucard Kernel

Open GApps Nano

SuperSU

Calls, SMS, and MMS working.

Battery Life is good. Still settling in, but overnight only lost 3% over 14 hours. Still using original battery (getting degraded) from about 2014 or so.

Automatic time zone working great.

LTE working as it should, including QS tile.

Substratum working.

No need for safety net pass, Magisk, MicroG, and whatever else is going on, so can't report on that.

All in all, another good release. Will report back if any issues arise with logs if possible.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] elv1503:

"Feature request"

Good evening every1,

[MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION] and other rom-devs/contributors, may i please request a little feature? in settings, there is it possible to disable/enable some icons for status/notificationbar, like Bluetooth, wifi, volume, mobil data, airplane mode and so on.

would it be possible to add "gps" to icons i can hide/disable to show?

if such a feature already exists, where/who to find it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] EggBeast:
Thanks for the reply. I set up my APN, but still never got LTE working. I also ran into a strange issue where there was no way to change the network mode to LTE after switching it to 3G. (screenshot)

I'm probably missing something here, but I'm not complaining. Stable 1 is already the best rom I've ever used for the S4 by a long shot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] lekiaM:
Yup there is, just scroll the header all the way down>tick the pencil icon>swipe the GPS icon to the above center to add as shortcut. Removing icons, swipe an icon down to remove from shortcut:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
either i misunderstood you, or you misunderstood me. what you suggested, either does not work or is not what i was looking for. i want to have the GPS icon ("pin" symbol) as quicksettings tile to toggle GPS mode, but not shown in notification bar, (next to clock/mobile network/wifi... symbols) if some app uses GPS.

sorry for bad explanation in my first post about this :(

€dit: im looking for an action like settings->statusbar-> system icons. there i could disable "mobile data" but still have the quicksettings tile to toggle on/off. such an entry for GPS would be nice
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] lekiaM:
Now I know what you meant (by your edit.) i don't think that option is available on Stable2. Aldo it's a good suggestion.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 135Shadowsoul:
if i may add another suggestion: i have battery indicator circle with % inside. while charging i only have the lightning inside the circe on non-lockscreen. on lockscreen the % is next to circle while charging. is there any chance to enable it for non-lockscreen, too? but only while charging, not permanent (permanent is possible as far as i know)

did you enable busybox and/or systemless hosts? if yes, disable both and reboot and check again.

do you have adaway installed? if yes, restore original hosts and disable/delete adaway and reboot.

if both not, im running out of ideas... :(

maybe some1 else can help you.

if I use forcedoze I am forced to optimize the system, however I thought it where allready optimized, isn´t it? lol

btw.: did anyone noticed max volume change between opt6 and opt7?

I remember using opt6 with bluetooth and it was a lot louder than with opt7.

also have problem with DJ Free, after exiting this app the phone looses celular network.

also not sure if it loose network while starting.

reboot helps and maybe network menu, too..... anyway

Is whine inverse proportional to how good the release is? I had never seen a moderator tone things down in this thread...

I'm having some issues with heat and the processor. I play some undemanding games like Smashy Road and Bloons TD 5 on my phone. When I play Smashy Road, the phone gets warm to the point where it is fairly uncomfortable when I hold it. It is also slower than expected with the game, with 2 gigs of RAM and a snappy processor. For comparison, my Samsung Galaxy Core Prime with a Snapdragon 410 and 1 gig of RAM plays with no lag whatsoever. I've tried this with the stock and Alucard kernel (with slightly better performance on the stock one). Any tips or tricks? Hopefully [MENTION=962829]stylemessiah[/MENTION] can help due to his help that he's given me in the past ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] szrat:
After reinstalling and selecting the stock kernel, the safetyNet has successfully turned on, but the apps are terribly lagging, and after locking the screen and unlocking after a short time it's the same thing on stable 1 or the phone is terribly lagging

How much Screen On Time do you get on this rom. Is it better than nightlies?

That's user depending. I get 5 to 6 hours SOT, with minimum multitasking. With original Samsung Battery:cool:

Edit: if it's better than nightlies? With stock kernel, yes and no. More in between.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
I flashed the ROM, finally, about 9 hours ago (usual clean flash, stweaks to extreme battery, undervolting, and some wakelock blocking), i havent had a full charge on it yet, but ive had no issues at all, and i suspect battery time will indeed be a bit better going on what ive seen so far

Looking good, thanks [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]

So it's seems that adaway it's causing the problem, without it the test passed, after install not passed, but now after I uninstall continues to not pass the test.

Anyway the error is about CTS profile

[MENTION=962829]stylemessiah[/MENTION], how much did you undervolt?

[MENTION=7976298]lekiaM[/MENTION], undervolt as well?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] navcar:
On Stable1, I have ticked the Systemless hosts option in Magisk v12 + also have adaway enabled. SafetyNet still passes on mine. It was a pain getting it to work though, and a few times I forgot to go into Magisk settings and actually tick "Magisk Hide" before thinking it wasn't working and formatting lol..

I'll flash Stable2 and see how it goes with Magisk. But I was able to find a substitute app to my government travel app that doesn't need safetynet :)

Update: I needed to untick Systemless hosts after dirty flashing Stable2. Passes safetynet again!

To be clear, I flashed Stable2 --> osm0sis's unSU --> boot.img from the Stable2 zip (probably not needed since I didn't pick SuperSU in Aroma) -> Magisk V12
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] WnG88:
Guys asking about safetynet and magisk on this ROM - why don't one of you start a thread in s4 general? You've been asked by the developer to not post magisk issues in this thread.

if you still need to pass SN and want to use adaway, you may have a look here. In mgisk-thread i posed a way i solved it (at least for my phone with stable 2)

What is the best/easiest way to update twrp recovery? Im still on 3.0 and was planning to update it before flashing S2.

Can I just flash twrp-3.1.0-0-jfltexx.img.tar in recovery and reboot recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sleepyg72786:
Tar's can't be flashed in recovery (Tar is for ODIN). Just get the zip and flash then reboot recovery and see the new version.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] abzjji:
The Link for TWRP on the first page only shows me .img and .tar files but no .zip. Why is that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MichaelZR:
I downloaded the twrp-3.1.0-0-jfltexx.img, put it on the external sdcard and flashed it through TWRP. The tar download can be used with ODIN. But probably also TWRP can use it since it contains the img file.

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

You could extract the img from the tar. But probably when bandwith and volume is no problem it's easier to download the img...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] maurocds:
for some reason i could not even start the rom

using latest twrp

wiped all, then format (even wento with f2f the 3rd try)

flashed + gapps

phone boots, but crashes on welcome screen when selecting start fresh or backup, i cannot do anything else

i can go to recovery and delete welcome apk, but it feels wrong

i tried this several times with no luck

i am not noob flashing, i went with lineage jdcteam and worked fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mynacol:
You have to use a recent GApps package (I mean redownloading the latest version independent from the selected version)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] maurocds:
thanks, i am already on lineage for now, maybe will try some other time, too bad
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] drclong:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] trasabdcf:
You can read about ways to update twrp in the official page, right here: https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys4internationalqualcomm.html

I already selected our device so you can go ahead and try any method you like. I personally prefer using the official app from the play store, flashify also works well, but all methods will work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MichaelZR:
I have a problem with Stable2 on my I9505: the compass and attitude sensor don't work. I did a fresh clean install using Aroma variant with full wipe exactly as described on post #1. Only one exception: after 'Wipe -> Format Data' I added a reformat to f2fs. I selected Alucard kernel, SuperSU, MIXplorer and both camera apps. No other zips were flashed. Immediately after first boot I installed the app GPS Status 3.8.1 from external sdcard. Beside GPS information it displays the compass and attitude. The sensor only gives value 0 for all axis. Opening the file manager shows that the sensor to detect landscape works, the orientation changes.

Doing the same procedure with Stable1 leads to a working indicator.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mippippippi:
I love this rom so much. I haven't seen my phone working so fast for years but I have a terrible battery drain of more than 1% per minute and the phone works hot while browsing so after like 2-3 min on the internet the battery drops by 5%. I have truned of Adaptive light and Ambient light, STweaks is on Extreme Battery, GPS off and i use 3G. So my question is, is this a normal drain of the battery with this rom or there is something more I could do?

That drain is really annoying and i would like to keep the Rom as it's working great otherwise.

Also I'm with my old baseband (O9505XXUHOB7) i wasn't sure if i should update it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] elv1503:
Its definetly not normal. I have noticed some heating, particularly while charging.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] trasabdcf:
You might have an app that's draining battery, try gsam battery monitor or wakelock detector to check the apps. Also you should update to latest modem. Also, have you clean installed?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] blitz0:
Same to me with Stable1 and Stable2 too:(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] MichaelZR:
Hmmmhhhh. It's strange that even Stable1 isn't working for you, whereas it's fine for me. How abot other users?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mippippippi:
Yes I got a clean install wiped all and clean delvik after install. I got the Gsam battery monitor no app is draining the battery by more than 3% and funny what eats the battery is 23% for the screen (obviously) and 46% for the karnel ( it's the one that came with the ROM), I don't know if that's how it's suppose to be ?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mynacol:
Download and install the substratum app from e.g. the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=projekt.substratum

CMTE themes are not supported on Lineage or Cyanogenmod 7.x OSs!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sheyac:
Thank you Side for a great rom. I'm experiencing the same as Shadowsoul. For me I need certain apps that check SN. On a restart it passes, then after a seemingly random time when I don't do anything special SN starts failing. Is there anything in the rom that would trigger this behaviour?

I have checked the Magisk forum but nothing there seems similar to this problem so it could be rom related?

PS. I had an app (HL) that kept reporting the device was tampered with even when SN passed. I fixed it by removing any references to debug in build.prop and also a key for root access changed it to 0 from 1. So far haven't noticed any changes to the system, but the app now works :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
I also use OctOS on one of my S4s and it is a good ROM which has a few more features/customizations than OptLOS. However, OptLOS provides better battery life. Try them both and see which one better suits your personal needs and tastes.

I currently have three different S4 variants running three different ROMs:

i337 --> OptLOS

i337M --> RR

M919 --> OctOS

In my opinion, these are the best 3 ROMs for the S4.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ZerxeZ:
Thank you man, its hard to get good help sometimes. And I value your honest opinion and since you told me that this ROM is a battery-guzzler I probably won't use though. Thanks a lot again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sjamie:
I believe you misunderstood me. I get the best battery life with this ROM. I get approximately 6 hours SOT on WiFi with OptLOS whereas the other ROMs get me 3-4 hours SOT on WiFi. Of course, I get even less SOT on mobile data.

Ehm...sorry... i want to know whether in the latest build (Stable 2)... alarm is working or not?

I need it so much because i use it every day for waking me up very early morning...

whoaa.. thanks a lot mate... u eliminate "don't use this"....

i never think about 3rd app alarm.... :D

oia... my first opinion on custom ROM... since i use xperia era years ago....

i never use custom ROM based on CM/AOSP/etc only because i really keep all features on my handset....

but i'm so glad that in this LOS... i have read, even MHL and USB Ethernet are working..... (a user confirmed me)

it change my s4 to be Swiss Army Knife.... because i'm working as Technician so it help me very much....

The one most use comes as part of Clock in G-Apps, so not really related to ROM anyways
