Thanks for the kind words!

As for removing apps, TB or system app remover, or the like work very well. However. None of them work quite as well on the Google apps. Typically, if you want less Google apps, you should choose a smaller open gaps package.

For instance, of you chose pico, the gaps come with nothing but the minimum for the play store. I would recommend that for you to install.

If you want less than that, then you could consider going gappsless, which is becoming increasingly popular as app stores like aptoide, Amazon, and fdroid become increasingly larger with many alternative apps and backbends. However, I do not recommend it for everyone as a lot of the "mainstream" apps require Google and it's back ends, like vudu, OKTA, etc....

Hope that helps!

Just resurrected my s4 couple days ago with your rom . Just being lazy is it ok to just dirty flash the updated build?

Also where is this optional AKLU kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JayDino75:
Sure does. Just installed Pico and I like it a lot better. Thanks again for the help, and a great ROM!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
The link for the AKLU kernel is in the OP, under the downloads section.

As for the dirty flash, it *should* work. I recommend that you do a backup and give it a try, if not, well, then you will have to do a full wipe. I always test with a full wipe, because I have to know that it works without anything else previously on the phone.

Great!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
AKLU -

Thanks again for your work, it's really appreciated. If you remember, I have 2 T-Mobile S4's. I recently loaded this ROM with your AKLU kernel on one device (clean install), and dirty flased the other S4 from your previous AOKP version. Happy to report the dirty flash worked great, no problems at all.

The problem I reported in your RR ROM about VOIP calls is persisting here in AOKP as well (reported here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70911804&postcount=96).

On one S4 (clean install with AKLU kernel), VOIP calls via app Kakao talk - other caller cannot hear me (just video calls, voice calls work), but I can hear them. Also, using T-Mobile Digits App (Beta VOIP app), same issue - other caller cannot hear me, but I can hear them. However, VOIP calls using Google Hangout Dialer works.

Still need to experiment with the other phone (Dirty flash with AKLU kernel) to see if the issue persists. Let me know if I can provide any info to help diagnose.

Edit: Checked this phone tonight and can confirm same behavior as other phone.

Thanks again, loving this ROMs, x2 for daily drivers.

Anyone else get Google Assistant? On my clean install with Open GApps Pico, I got it. "OK Google" detection does not work (greyed out and says it doesn't work with this device), but long home button press brings it up, and seems to be working well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darazor:
Same. If you want "OK Google" detection you need gapps nano or more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Great point darazor,

The choice of gaps is going to have a pretty big affect on your phone experience from here on out, more so than before. (Good, bad, or indifferent, depending how you feel about Google.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JayDino75:
Here's an interesting problem I have discovered: My MMS won't go through the Messaging app... I cannot send nor receive pics/vids/etc. Anyone else having this issue, and I missed it in the thread? --JP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darazor:
Two goto apps that I use are App Ops - Permission Manager (Qixingchen) and Disable Services (WangQi), indispensable if you want to limit the access of installed apps on an individual basis.

In general more power and access are built into most apps than are needed to accomplish their stated task these two apps give control to the user/owner of the phone.

I would add one more for anyone who wants to easily remove a system app, System App Remover (Root) (Jumobile).

All require root, are free, in the app store and can return a great deal of peace of mind to the user.

I appreciate that many apps are free but I'm just not going to give up the keys to my house so I can use them.

-D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
Just confirmed I have the same issue. I usually use hangouts for messages using my Google voice number, so never noticed before.

I could not send MMS from both the messenger app nor the Hangouts app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JayDino75:
I remember having this problem a long time ago on the old MyTouch (before rooting was a thing). When I called T-Mo tech support, it turned out to be an incorrect set of settings on the APN menu, which was pointing my MMS Server to a router server in Korea. I'm guessing considering I'm in New York, USA, that was a problem... The tech walked me through setting up the right addresses and ports, and it fixed the problem. I'm going to quick do some research into that very fix and see if that makes things work right. I'll keep you posted ...If you find something before I do, let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darazor:
I believe you are correct. I changed the TMobile US LTE settings and now MMS works with Google Messages.

APN fast.t-mobile.com

MMSC http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

MCC 310

MNC 260

APN type default,supl,mms

APN protocol IPV4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol IPv4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
That fixed it, thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JayDino75:
Awesome, Drazor!! Thanks for the assist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] darazor:
You led me right to it! :highfive:

And then I remembered reading of a similar issue too.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
For any like me that are having problems with any apps using VOIP (other caller cannot hear you), I *may* have found the solution. I was searching around and found this old thread: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/general/fix-whatsapp-callsand-voip-services-t3064132

Using those instructions, I did the following:

- Install ES File Explorer or any other root explorer

1. Browse to /system/

2. open build.prop with an editor (ES has it built in)

3. Search for two lines:

use.dedicated.device.for.voip=true

use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=true

4. Change both of the above to ' =false '

5. Save the build.prop (chose Linux if prompted on save)

6. Reboot

7. It should now work

In my limited testing, it seems to have fixed the issue with no adverse effects. Will update if I encounter any issues going forward.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Yooshaw,

Does this still work to fix the issue with VoIP? If so, let me know and I can include it in future builds. Great detective work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
Still working, and I can't discern any I'll effects to anything else.

Thanks for all your work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Praise God, another update!

Nothing major this go around, be sure to check out the change log in rom controls, it is pretty neat way to see what AOKP has added to your rom. Also, security patches are updated to March 5th, 2017, so you can be as cyber safe as possible. I have also updated the kernel thread to make sure the new kernel fully supports substratum.

Also, the awesome background was provided by The Quiet Learner, you can see more of his work here:

Not sure if you're aware, but there is a team of devs working on a stable version of LineageOS 14.1 (7.1.1) for most S4 variants (including our M919)

Third post mentions they're looking for help. Considering your great efforts on AOKP, you might be able to provide them with some expertise and vice-versa. And if you're already helping them, they should add you to the list :D

Thanks for all your efforts

How can I flash this if my SD card reader no longer works? (I've replaced the SIM/SD connector multiples time and it keeps burning out - last time I tried it, it simply didn't work on the microSD side, but the SIM side worked without issue). I'm already rooted with a custom recovery.

Also, will I run into any issues without using a microSD on this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
I think you can side load the ROM in twrp while hooked to your computer with adb.

There should be no issues with not having an external sdcard, it is not needed by the ROM itself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] romis138:
Was able to successfully flash last night without issue.

Should I encounter any issues with time jumping with time settings set to manual? I had an issue this morning after leaving my phone idle while I slept, but I think it may have just been due to having two launchers install and the phone not knowing which to default to (I've since gone back to Trebuchet, so will test further now that I uninstalled Google Now launcher).

issues:

- cannot drag app-added quick drawer tiles (that exist on the very bottom) to the top. halfway through dragging to the top, the icon automatically releases and the scrolling stops. here's a video demonstrating with the lastpass tile: https://youtu.be/r4cWWyfUhBU - the app itself has a radio button setting to add the tile, but unfortunately it doesn't work on this ROM.

- long press of back button configured to close applications pretends it does (gives toast and shows home screen), but recent apps still shows app open.

Issue with song names over bluetooth

Switched to this ROM from RR. Overall love the ROM.

One small issue I noticed is that in this ROM the song names are not being transmitted over Bluetooth. I am just seeing "Unknown" for all song names.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
I see that too. I see the problem is too many system quick tiles that you cannot scroll up far enough to add app ones.

I did successfully add an app quick tile by adding all of the system tiles first, then added my app tile, then removed the 30 system tiles. Bad work around, but it does work.

I will have to check on the kill app.

Thanks for the kind words. I am really weak on Bluetooth knowledge, so I will look into it, but no promises.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] romis138:
bluetooth song titles work in my car using this rom and google music. i suspect above poster's issue is either related to the app or the id3 tags on the individual files.

i randomly have an issue where when i wake my screen it says "Select Sim Card" and says tmobile and my phone number. anyone else replicate this, is it anything to worry about?

this rom is solid so far. loving it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Thanks for the feedback romis138!

I was trying to find a way to test that, but I don't have any blue tooth capable stereos or players. Good to know the Google music app works.

As for the Sim issue, I have not seen that once. Which baseband/modem do you have? I am using pg2.

Great news! I finally got AOKP 7.1.2 to build successfully! I am giving it the ol' rundown test right now. Stay tuned, tomorrow I should have it posted here. I was getting beat up by the changes to the Bluetooth and silly things like the changelog and OTA naming convention.

There doesn't seem to be much in this update to 7.1.2, but it dirty and clean flashed great. The "official" 7.1.2 changelog is:

Improved fingerprint swipe performance

Bluetooth connectivity improvements

Battery usage alerts

Obviously, the fingerprint swipe doesn't help the S4 any. But the AOKP team didn't implement the battery usage alerts in the way that AOSP did. On AOSP, there is a new menu option for the battery usage alerts, but not so on our AOKP. However, the AOKP team has been doing a lot of great work, including one item I thought you might all really enjoy, but more on that tomorrow. (Yes, I am leaving you with that cliffhanger while I test it out....)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yooshaw:
Paint me excited! Thanks again for your hard work, it's much appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Praise God! Another update is in the OP!

Not a lot of big changes, but a few little perks, like new battery icon choices, power menu options, and the like. Here is the changelog:

20170425

+ Synced with AOKP source!

--> Upgraded to 7.1.2!

--> Security patch update to April 5, 2017

--> Long press "Hotspot" tile to open hotspot settings

--> New battery icon "AOKP Tha"

--> New power menu option to turn on/off torch

+ Edited Device Model to say SGH-M919 instead of I9505

The big ticket surprise that I was hoping to get going for you guys did not work. Sorry, hope I didn't get you all excited for nothing. The AOKP team was working on an option that if you hold the volume up key while booting, then it would disable your OMS overlays for that boot. But it is not working in this build. Hopefully we can get that going next time!

EDIT: New kernel is in the kernel thread. I highly recommend the AKLU kernel for better OMS and WiFi Hotspot support.

Enjoy the update to 7.1.2 and thanks for hanging in there on the old Samsung Galaxy S4 with me!

Our S4 community is getting pretty small, so feel free to drop a line here if you are still using these roms. It will certainly help me keep motivated to build (this last update to 7.1.2 was pretty rough).
