Dude that's got to be fake!

There is no way they would be able to cram 5050mah battery in the same thickness as the standard battery

It can't, at least we don't have the technology for such high capacity and slim battery,

I finally get random reboots this week, firts time since I updated on the 13th, it was when I use waze and my battery is somewhere below 40%, twice this week.

Other than the call history issues when toggling BT, everything's fine.

Thank you developers for this ROM. It truly has revived my S4. Love everything you did with it! Encountered only one issue, which is a Google issue actually: my car's bluetooth will connect to my phone, but no sound can be heard. This is solved by Google with version 7.1.2.. Any idea how to fix this in this ROM? Thank you.

I appreciate the hint in the application, I'll give it a try.

Does the program tell me how many cycles I have already done on the battery? I tried the code *#*#4636#*#*, but didn't give me any information about the battery.

I expect a monster-sized battery lol. But as everyone here commented, unless he is an engineering magician the amount of mAh reported is just cosmetic.

Hi guys, I have the version installed OptimizedCM-13-20161105-jflte-Aroma.zip, I'm afraid to switch to the version Optimized-LineageOS-14.1-20170213-Snapshot-beta5-jflte-AROMA.zip.

Do you recommend installing F2FS or EXT4?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Nothing can give you that information. Charging cycles are not a fixed number.

I believe they vary from battery to battery and also vary with usage and discharge habits.

I read somewhere that letting it discharge completely is the most damaging and will drastically reduce the charging cycles.

Letting it go below 20% is second worst.

50% is their and 80% is 4th.

So, if you want to maximum possible charging cycles from your battery, don't let it go below 80%.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] echo_21:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
I honestly believe you won't see any kind of difference.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] clipthon:
The differences I noticed was that F2FS is faster, but the Waze app does not work. The EXT4 is a bit more stable, a little slower.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
Just use EXT4 and get on with life

Really F2FS talk was boring me a year ago.....if you want to create issues where there shouldnt be any, use F2FS...otherwise, as i said, leave **** alone and use EXT4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] siginor:
I don't know much about battery's so, as everyone is saying, this mAh can be fake but... I pay less then the original battery and now I'm very happy about the duration (which, on my phone, is greater then the original).

So, if you want to confirm, and have the equipment to test, buy one then tell us if it really have 5050mAh. (U$10,00 on Ali).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Well, I can tell you that 5000 mAh batteries for the S4 are huge and they require a back cover replacement because of how big they are.

The biggest, normal sized, S4 battery is 3000 mAh.

Now, you may have paid less for it and the duration is better, but that may not last for very long. You see, cheap and low quality batteries tend to degrade faster, which means that in a few months it's gonna lose a big chunk of its capacity most probably.

Hi there,

I just flashed this rom. I came from Cyanogenmod 13.

My phone always boots into recovery. How can I fix this?

After some research there are some files in /dev/block/ missing.

Any advices?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
Have you flashed the latest TWRP via ODIN?

Have you then tried a full wipe?

Have you read the instructions in the first post on page 1?

When in doubt, flash a stock ROM via ODIN if youre having issues of the weird kind...it will give you a known clean starting point (unless youve got bad hardware), and then flash a custom ROM

Always keep a copy of the last stock ROM for your device handy

I'd add Mugen Batteries to the list. They do a 2750mA battery which works nicely. Also note that the Zerolemon 3000mA batteries don't have NFC.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] raziel123:
Is NFC built into the S4 batteries?

If so which batteries have them?

I thought it'd be in the phone,
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] lekiaM:
When everything is wiped, with format data included this may be a solution for you:

Install first ROM (do not wipe cache/dalvik after flashing). Let your device reboot, finish the Tap&Go settings, back to recovery. Flash Gapps (do not wipe/cache dalvik after flasing Gapps two) reboot your device and it should be fine now.

(p.s I tested it many times because i had the same kind of issues before. Example: "device won't boot properly" or "stuck at booting with a red led blinking")

Off-Topic: Why don't you start reading by the page number when a new release is out by date? and see if others had the same issues? some users don't have to repeat themselfs. This because the guideline/install manual can be kinda out-of-date.:confused::rolleyes::cool:

phone is active the whole time

Hey guys,

first of all thank you for the great roms and your amazing work!

Iam using the Optimized-LineageOS-14.1-20170213-beta5-Snapshot version on my i9505 and have done a full wipe. My phone is the whole time "active" so the battery darin is really huge (~10% in 1h).

Any suggestions to solve this problem?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] xmicroman:
Since beta 5 each time my phone restarts I get a setup not responding wait or kill dialog. The same dialog you see when a program stops responding. No big deal

Plus I noticed 10% of the time when I wake up and start the day my LED is solid green and I have to hold the power button to restart. I always attributed this to a hardware old phone issue.

I did a clean install didn't wipe caches and used pico. Only difference was instead of rebooting between ROM install and gapps I installed both then rebooted. This may explain the dialog I mentioned in the first paragraph.

Thought I should mention not a big deal at all.

Thanks!

Mugen power as a company selling batteries doesn't exist any more as I understand.

There are still sites selling what is reported to be Mugen Power batteries, but I'd be a bit careful about them.

NFC is built into the battery on the original Samsung battery for the Galaxy S4 i9505, so with the original battery you get NFC too.

With Galaxy S4 batteries, I'd look for those that include NFC as they're probably a more reputable brand.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] scyberx:
Hello JDCTeam and collaborators, thank you for your efforts and continued support, so far I have mostly good things to say about this ROM. I'm at this moment tweaking a few things on STweaks, mostly with CPU voltage, which makes me restart my phone very often, and I've noticed that every time the OS restarts and I try to open an app, I get a message saying "Google Play Services stopped", sometimes repeatedly until it decides to stop crashing for some reason.

What could be causing this, and how can I fix it? I followed the flashing instructions correctly, installing the latest custom ROM with the nano gapps package. My device is GT-I9505.

I'm also having some problems with the camera crashing (requiring a phone restart), but apparently that's a well known bug and will probably be fixed on the next release.

Thank you!

Getting back to my reply in response to a recommendation post about batteries, finally decided it was time to get some new batteries, im still using the original one, and even though it gets me through 2 days or 4.5 hours of screen time, its getting old now...hasnt started to swell yet thank god

Anyways i just bought 2 x MJP standard batteries (plus a charger - bundled and not really needed) for USD$35 or $AUD47, free shipping, to me in Aus, not bad....

Decided against the extended batteries, for many reasons, lack of NFC/legitimate or good quality ones largley unavailable to me in Aus...Amazon will not ship any extended batteries to Aus/my state at least.....fricking Amazon

Im always travelling and away from home, so nows the time to grab a couple before they stop making them and im stuck with fake OEM's on Ebay :)

My Play Store shows me "your device is not compatible with this version".

I've been using the ROM for a few days now, have not had any major issues, our turn-downs...but:

- The phone gets kind-of unresponsive during calls. Like the screen wont turn on when I move it away from my head, nor when I press the home or power button. My phone's proximity sensor were even acting up sometimes on stock ROM too, but it would at least turn on the screen upon pressing a button. This is fine most of the time, I set the power button to hang up the call, but it is not always ideal. May be a problem with my device tho.

- The system stutters from time to time. Sometimes for quite long, too. This usually happens when I try to switch between applications quickly or accessing a more heavy feature of some of the applications.

- The brightness transition is strange...it happens in quite large, visible stripes. There are some artifacts as well, mainly during orientation changes. Doesn't always happen.

- The camera is not too responsive - it hangs quite frequently (the app remains open, but freezes and starts working in a few seconds). I am using Google's camera app. I am quite OK with that, at least it is working. :)

A bit off-topic - My bank has just published a new version of their mobile application. It no longer works with phone running a custom or rooted OSs.

I am aware of rootcloak, but that requires xposed - which is not available on nougat yet, afaik. Do I have any other options?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HJSC:
I have been trying hard not to leave below 20%, but have not been taking the same care a year ago.

I also read that we should charge little by little too, so as not to put too much "pressure" on the battery leaving it charging for a long time.

So I'm waiting for your feedback on the batteries (that's if I can stop myself haha), because I was tempted to buy them if they can ship them to Brazil.

I'm seeing that it's on 50% off, so I guess I'll take that chance. But one thing I am in doubt is if the extra battery can get some time off, since I do not want to always be switching between one and the other...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
That may refer to not leaving it charger for 8 hours.

I generally never leave it charger for more than it needs. e.g., as soon as it reached 100%, I unplug it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nickp37:
Can this beta upgraded ota in the future?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
I highly doubt this.

If the phone would stop charging at 100%, then doesn't that mean it should drop to 99% (while still plugged in) and then start charging again?

There's no in-between here. Either it stops when it reaches 100% or it doesn't. And my guess is that it doesn't, since leaving it plugged in keeps it at 100% forever.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Tweakforce_LG:
The phone is powered directly by the charger when fully charged and if the charger can't deliver enough power, then the battery also gets used. Not sure how true that is but that's what I heard.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
I doubt this too.

Without the battery inside, the phone won't even turn on if plugged in. That means it's the battery that closes the circuit.

In other words, power goes to the battery and the phone draws it from the battery.

I can confirm this by the fact that I once had a charger problem. Basically, the charger didn't supply enough power to the phone, thus the phone would slowly discharge even though it was plugged in.

So yeah, this particular phone doesn't get power straight from the charger.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] markiarom:
Percentage doesn't go from 100% to 99% but It doesn't mean that cell's logic doesn't require a "mainteining charge flow" that keep battery's voltage (and charge) in a range between "max" and "almost max".

After using this ROM for some days, my 2 cts:

- Really fast and responsive (keep reading)

- Photo and video work fine.

- Google maps is a mess. It stutters and becomes unusable very often.

- When I press the Gallery icon I get presented with a black screen instead of any picture. I have to close the app and start it many times until it works. This happens quite frequently.

- Sometimes the screen goes dark while I'm using the phone. Sometimes the device goes back to life by pressing the Home button or the Power button. Sometimes I have to pull the battery.

This is going to be a great ROM as soon as they iron this small things out.

GPS problem. It works fine for first few starts, but after that it gets messy...GPS won't connect at all, I tried various fixes and many tests but GPS won't connect to any satellite (more than 10 available indoors with great reception). Restart seems to solve this issue. I reflashed ROM with complete wipe including sdcard, reflashed modem and none of this was solution. This is the first time I used GPS on Nougat ROM. On Marshmallow it worked excellent. Can modem cause this problem?
