New update! Download from Google Drive, build from 06.06

Download from AFH

Changelog: June security patch, updated LineageOS sources, kernel CVE fixes, other changes here
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
Is it stable ? Is the final version ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
Yes. it is stable. What does "final" means? This build not last
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
Final version means is the last version. But I see, is not the last
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] wilsonhlacerda:
Well it is Android 7 and Android 8 is already there, so it is not final :laugh:

But if you mean if it is the newest LOS build for I9295, and even the newest Android current available for it, yes it is. Thanks to developers, Vlad and other builders of this thread here!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] floydburgermcdahm:
Been running it for a couple days now without any issues. Thank you!!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
How to install ? Partition F2FS ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] IvanCristina:
Not mandatory. IMHO F2FS is useless if you're on ext4. The difference is not that huge (maybe a bit in Read, in write it's almost the same). Anyway do not expect big changes
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
Why I get encryption unsuccessful ? (After the installation)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mac_777:
First thanks to all the devs for their great work and congratulations on your new website!

With the last two builds I noticed new problems with Bluetooth: From time to time it crashes and it isn't possible to turn it on again, except I restart the phone. I returned to build 20140424 and Bluetooth works again without any problems. Does anyone else has the same issue or has an idea, what could be the reason for this problem?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] IvanCristina:
Never got that problem. Anyway I advice you to clean wipes after a full Titanium Backup

Thanks man. Had this problem a long time ago, though after a reboot it got solved itself
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
I've installed 06/06 and I'm getting Bluetooth connection errors, sometimes the screen is unresponsive when waking the phone and I'm experiencing phone call issues (an ongoing issue where the recipient to my phone calls receive data noises similar to a fax machine).
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] wilsonhlacerda:
For the ones having Bluetooth (and/or wifi) problems, just be sure your mobile have same baseband and modem versions. There is no way to check this, you must know just because you did and guarantee it in the past.

If in doubt, Odin flash newest stock Samsung ROM for your country (download from sammobile website) and then clean TWRP flash your custom ROM. From then no problem anymore because new standard custom ROMs flashing will not affect baseband, modem....only kernel, system, data, cache.

This is a common problem on Samsung mobiles. Just be sure is not your case.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
I'm planning to do this tonight. I have a stock 5.0.1 ROM so I'm going to reset the phone back and then re-root and install LineageOS again. How do I check the modem version? I know what my baseband is already.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] wilsonhlacerda:
"GSM version:

System, About phone, Baseband version

BL version:

Terminal or ADB command 'getprop ro.bootloader'

LTE version:

No known method to identify what you have currently. Best guess is the stock original Samsung firmware last installed. Other option is last flashed non-hlos.bin"

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
I've done a clean install (stock ROM then TWRP, then LineagoeOS 14.1) and the Bluetooth and lock screen issues seem to be resolved. I haven't tested the phone calls issue yet.

I'm now experiencing an issue with the hardware keys. Both the menu and home buttons at some point will stop responding to short presses. Long press and double press actions still work as expected but it now means that I have to to into split screen mode to access recent apps and make my way back to the home screen.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
Hello, I've managed to recreate the issue where audio cuts out on both ends of a phone call by making a call (I used my home landline to listen to both ends) and then turning on speakerphone. As soon as I hit the speakerphone button the call went silent on both sides and the only way to fix it is to do a full reboot.

I had a phone call at lunch time that didn't have any audio to it so I ran to my car to connect it to it's bluetooth (which has worked in the past). I could hear the other side of the call (coming into my mobile) but the recipient could not hear me.

Can someone else please try to replicate this issue as it has been present on my phone for several months now. I even went as far as to perform a full reset of my phone (flashed the lastest stock ROM then added TWRP and LineageOS) but still I can't seem to shake this bug. I'm more than willing to provide debug dumps or log files or anything else that might help to track down and fix the issue. I'm on the verge of giving up and buying a new phone and leaving custom ROMs for good, but I know that there must be a solution and I'm loathed to have to give up a phone that's not totally dead yet.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] masdaster:
Hello typhoon_2099.

At the moment I'm not on this rom. But within the next week I'm planing to update my rom to a new version (clean flash). So maybe I can flash this rom first and try to replicate your issue. Due to my lack of time I can't promise.

For now I can offer you to send me your LogCat. So I will take a look and maybe I can find a clue.

Finally a few questions:

- Do you face this problem after clean install without any personal apps or gapps?

If no:

- Which gapps version do you use?

- Did you restore any system or app data with Titanium Backup?

- In an earlier post you wrote that it might has something to do with your headset or an Bluetooth device. Are you using a 'normal' wired headset?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
Hi, I currently have the pico version of Gapps installed, I installed it when I flashed the ROM initially, so I haven't tested without it installed. I switch between a wired headset and a Bluetooth headset (my cars and a portable Bluetooth speaker). I stopped using Titanium backup a while ago so I haven't restored any data this way on my current install. I'll try and get a LogCat dump done some time today, I'll just send the whole thing through and try to pinpoint the moment the issue arises. Thanks for offering to help out.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
lots of changes in the latest build for jfltexx

I have installed the latest LOS for galaxy S5 and there is a support for magnetic lock and unlocl ( Flip cover with magnet sensor ) and it works great

might there be for s4 also

Question : What is the best filemanger for android ?

I have installed Total_Commander_v2.80 but it has (parsing error package) for installing new apk

tested xplore and the same problem they have root permission also

can anyone help I hate the default filemanger
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Alex_Gamer:
Try MiXplorer.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] GregoriMarow:
two questions

Hello,

I have two questions.

Question 1:

I flashed a lot of ROMs on my phone and on phones of friends, first cyanogen then lineage. I ever did a complete new flash but now I am very satisfied with your ROM but i never tried a "update" before. Currently I am running lineage-14.1-20170210-UNOFFICIAL-jactivelte.

Is it possible (with TWRP) to update to the newest build (lineage-14.1-20170606-UNOFFICIAL-jactivelte.zip) without a data loss?

I assum you have the newest level of security patches in 20170606.

Question 2:

With the build I am running at the moment the selinux status is set to moderate (I have german language settings and assuming it is progressive mode) I used the command "setenforce 1" in /data/local/userinit.sh to set it back to strict. I have read some articles about selinux and I do not understand why it is switched off (okay its not completely off but its not acting as it should it just recording logs) because it seems to be a good security feature.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
Most of the time it is possible to update from a previous version of a rom to a newer one without dataloss:

0. Backup your data (just to be on the safe side)

1. Download the new version. It should be or internal or external sdcard.

2. Download all other zips you want to flash, e.g. magisk, g-apps

3. Boot into recovery (twrp)

4. Wipe system (to clean all old stuff laying around). *** DO NOT wipe data ***

5. Flash your rom (don't reboot)

6. Flash magisk, g-apps or whatever you need

7. Wipe cache and dalvik

8. Reboot and enjoy.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] the negrox:
I'm curious about your way to update a ROM and I'd like to know if I do it wrong all the time I update, because I always boot into recovery (I prefer cwm instead of twrp) then I wipe cache and dalvik cache, later I flash the new ROM and finally I wipe cache and dalvik cache again and reboot, I neither wipe system nor flash gapps again or something else, so I basically do steps 1,3,7,5,7 and 8.... And that way I haven't had any issues, not even the mentioned above..... am I doing it wrong?? BTW, what is magisk for?? I have never flashed it and this ROM is rooted by default.... Thanks for your answer.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
a. CWM is known to have issues with some ROMs and is not maintained anymore, so most developers only support TWRP.

b. Wiping cache and dalvik before flashing does not harm, but should not be necessary.

c. Wiping system before flashing is not always necessary, but a must if major changes to the ROM are implemented, e.g. a switch from los-su to magisk. Otherwise old binaries and libs are hanging around and potentially called/linked instead of the current ones... But when you have wiped system, you have to reinstall everything you need on the system partition, e.g. gapps. Not flashing the current version of gapps when you update your ROM is not a good idea: If you have luck, you are wasting storage, cause all Updates to gapps are fetched and loaded to the userspace... But sometimes the older gapps do not work with newer ROMs: Expect FCs or bootloops then

.

d. magisk may be helpful to pass safetynet. Some developers switched to it in the last months (include it in their ROMs), others do not pre-root their ROMs. I don't know the current state of this ROM.

As long as all is working for you, it can't be totally wrong. But in case of problems...

Hope I could help you.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Erligga:
Hello everybody,

first I really want to thank you for this awesome ROM. It improved my S4 Active a lot. However I would like to have an unrooted version as for example my online banking apps are not running on a rooted device. Can you tell me how to unroot the device though using a custom recovery and your ROM?

Thanks in advance,

Erligga
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
First I'd try magisk-hide for your banking apps...

If this is not enough for you, you could try to uninstall magisk using the uninstall-feature in magisk-manager.

The best way is uninstalling by flashing magisk-uninstall.zip: http://tiny.cc/latestuninstaller

No pure los build for a long time from tsvetkov vlad

its going to be my next test
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
What do you mean when you say "pure"?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
Thanks I mean no ResurectionRemix build and no magisk for default root app :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
I planned to upload build every month after release Google security patches
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Erligga:
Thank you very much for your support! After some difficulties I have installed the latest Magisk version and it seems to work though it says that the safety net is not working. :)

Btw: While booting I get a message that my kernel is not Seandroid enforcing. What does that tell me?

Erligga
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
Glad to hear.

Ignore it. Your bootloader is prepared for samsung knox and sees that you use a custom kernel.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
have installed the new Tsvetkov build so far so good no problem at all

but the new flip cover settings isnt there like the s5 lineage os

its about amonth that lineage os s5 has a new flip cover settings for covers that have magnet sensor for lock and unlock the screen

might be there in the s4 also in the next builds
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
Will be. Does our device has magnetic sensor for lock the screen?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
Yes S4 Active does have magnetic sensor it can detect the gauss of the magnet

I did test the magnet unlock in the app store it worked but the phone coudnt go to sleep and it was so buggy and battery hungry

but the new flip cover feature in the klte S5 is woking great

progimity sensor uses 0.6 mA while

magnet sensor only uses 0.2 mA of power

if your case doesnt have a magnet you can buy a small magnet and stick it to the right place in the cover like I did

s5 is in the bottom left side s4 I dont remember think it was on the top left of the screen

I have managed to solved the problem with no notification light for missed call

I set the notification level of importance (for the app Phone ) from automatic to high and evrything is ok now

dont know if anyone has that problem before

I had this problem with every previous build even RR remix

seems it could be solved easily hopefully I figured it

and for the battery everything is ok now. no problem for lots of usage battery for kernel of the phone that I had with RR builds

the honor goes to Tsvietkov and others thankyou
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
Did I said the standby is also great compare to RR builds.

last night slept with 69% of battery and woke up this morning it was 67% without radio ofcourse it was in flight mode

after 3 hours now its 65% ( with two sms. no call and no watsapp and internet mobile)

the headphone was also pluged in till now & woke up the phone with the volume button of the headphone.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] typhoon_2099:
I'm having issues with the hardware buttons on the last couple of builds. Most of the long press and double press actions do not work, and the single press action for the home button does nothing (instead of returning to the home screen).

I've customised some of the button behaviour such as long pressing the home button to show the recent apps but this stops working intermittently. I instead have to back out of an app (or if I'm trying top do something then I have to double tap the home button to launch the split screen and then use it from there). I've also noticed that the menu button (now renamed to the recents button in the settings) completely stops working when this issue is in effect. I've set this button to open/close menus but again this is unresponsive.

I've also enabled the advanced reboot option from the developer options but this too is disappearing intermittently (at the same time that the home buttons stop working).

Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

NOTE: I'm getting messages like this in logcat when I perform a home button action that's doesn't trigger it's intended action (recents/menu button doesn't log anything):

07-10 15:15:12.229: V/KeyguardServiceDelegate(662): **** onKeyguardExitResult(false) CALLED ****

UPDATE: Disabling the lock screen in my Profiles was causing the issue. The buttons now all work and the advanced reboot options have returned.

Call Recording?

Hi - this is ROM is fantastic!

Only, I am going crazy trying to enable call recording (which worked on my previous StockyROM). Howto?

Thank you so much for bringing my S4A back to life!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
Hello for backup only the settings (for example the icon of battery ...)

which one is ecactly needed to backup in TWRP

modem (61MB)

Boot (10MB)

system (584MB)

Data (383MB)

chache (5MB)

EFS (4MB)

???????????????? thankyou
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Alex_Gamer:
That settings are stored on data partition but, I didn't recommend that because you can get some bugs (maybe) well.. in the case you want to make a clean flash and recover the settings.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Alex_Gamer:
Is there a chance that we can get AOSPA? :D It's a great rom, ofc if the devs can.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Erligga:
Hey guys,

I have one more question. Unfortunately MagiskHide is not working properly as I thought. MagiskHide is on, but not hiding anything...

After some research I found out that MagiskHide needs a linux kernel higher than 3.8.

Does this mean MagiskHide is not working with this ROM? Is it possible to update the kernel?

Do you have any other hints how to get my banking apps running on my GT-I9295?

Thanks in advance :)

Erligga
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
MagiskHide is working even with a kernel 3.0.101 on maguro and M.

You have to enable the hiding for specified apps... If it does not work for you, give magisk 13.1 a try...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Erligga:
Thanks for your answer. I have actually installed Magisk 13.1... In my case it is still not working. What do you do different from me? :D
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
Did you check the boxes in magisk-hide for these apps you dont want to see root?

But it is a little bit off topic here and you did not describe your problem in a way someone could help. Do any apps tell you they won't run on a rooted device? Or does your device not pass safetynet?

Tipps and tricks for magisk you'll find at https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Btw: Magisk 13.2 should address some issues..

unexpected reboots, huge battery drain & unrecognized sim card

Hi all,

For a few weeks/months now, I've got very strange bugs: sometimes when looking for music in the default music player, and nearly each time I open Google Maps, the phone become unresponsive, then reboot. After reboot the SIM card is not recognized anymore, and the battery suddenly drains to just a few percent left. However, when I reboot into recovery mode, the battery indicator shows me the amount I got before the first reboot (!?).

The only workaround I found so far to get the SIM card back is to go to recovery, do a backup, restore it and wipe dalvik cache.... I know this make no sense at all but it works :eek:

Does anybody experienced these weird issues? Even a factory reset did not solve this problem. Can it be fixed or is my phone just dying?

I'm running LineageOS-14.1-20170706-UNOFFICIAL-jactivelte, but I also had those bugs in the last builds before this one.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] vantablackxx:
hello. which gapps should i install?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] guest4711:
It depends on your needs. I don't install any cause I prefer FOSS apps from fdroid.

If you really think you need google open gaps pico should do the job - you'll get missing functionality from playstore.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] vantablackxx:

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
When did you release an update ? Did Zram are enable ? And the Wi-Fi issue is solved or not ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
Update will be released after LineageOS team will implement August security patch. zRAM is enabled. What do you mean when you say "Wi-Fi issue"?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
Sometimes Wi-Fi intensity is low goes to 300ms and when I download a file it's take a lot of time 1GB ~30-40min 100KO-1MO
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
It is not issue. I think our phone has some time unstability with wifi, because it has old binaries(Android 5.0.1) from Samsung (not open source) and we are very lucky that our phone works well on 7.1. Low speed of download/upload may be caused by a lot of factors: wifi channel, wifi freq, wall thickness and other
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
Maybe but when I goes to Android marshmallow the internet speed goes to 5MO per second
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] tsvetkov_vlad:
What app do you use to measure internet speed?

(My speed)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] Vishwa Kumar:
I don't use a app. I measure internet speed using the remaining time and the intensity provided by my box (for marshmallow 5MO per sec and nougat 100-1MO) (when I download a file)

Does the camera work for others?

First things first: Thank you so much for this ROM, never thought my S4A would ever see Android 7 :)

Now my problem: I can take photos just fine. What doesn't work at all is recording video. If I use the preinstalled camera app, the liveview is very blurry, recording can be started and stopped, but the saved file is always corrupt and can't be opened with any app (tried gallery, VLC and Solid Explorer).

I tried Open Camera too, but when I try to take a video the app crashes.

I know that camera was always a big problem with CM ROMs, but since nobody else seems to mention it here, is there any way to fix this and use video too?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] pedramtt:
to norGster

Dont change the settings for camera app

especially in the video settings

If you change some settings you have to install the firmware again

I just have problem when pause the video a lot , after a time It will have issues with audio video sync

but no problem when I dont pause the video

try Camera-FV-5_v3.29 tested lots of apps and didnt find anything better than this

you can even record with low bitrate but with good quality

sorry didnt test the newest version 3.29 yet
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] floydburgermcdahm:
A final thank-you note to you guys. Was able to use my jactivelte for many years and in no small part because of your awesome ROM!

Unfortunately, my phone lately started showing signs of hardware failure before dying completely. I switched to Moto G5 (cedric) which already has unofficial support and, fingers crossed, will go official soon.

You rock! Over and out.
