Is the Rom still maintained?

Hi, does anyone know if this device is still supported by Lineage? As in, will there be official builds with 14.1 or 15.1?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] sergio7676:
Yes it is :)

https://download.lineageos.org/ks01lte
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] foxrft:
This device is no longer officially supported, as you can see there are no more new nightlies, but we don't know if they will release 14.1 for it or not..
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Chris Miller94:
When i read supported devices list of LOS15 our device was in the list.

But i think it will take time if its true.

Until this time, just flash kyasu's Unofficial LOS14.1.

Very stable rom, but i think it wont receive any update, because the developer working on an Unofficial 15.1 /in Beta now/
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] foxrft:
I'm currently using LOS 15.1 for 2 weeks, it's already stable enough for daily use, no issues for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] alien6:
Anyone can recommend good replacement for LOS 13? Im looking for sth stable and good battery life. Don't have time to all these unofficial other roms...
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Haaax2000:
Could someone upload the last version here? It's gone from the official site
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
That's the last one i have.

I have a bug. I have 2 lines at my sim. When i change line from sim toolkit then the app dissapear and cant change again line. Need to reboot so apk appear again. At TW or Miui works ok. Is there any solution?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DavidMelb:
I was running CM13, with CM recovery, so I installed TRWP via google play, wiped then installed lineage-13.0-20170312-nightly-ks01lte-signed.zip

It works well, even did away with my pet hate on CM13 which was the black screen after phone calls prox sensor bug, so thanks!

QUESTION: in CM13 there was a folder called cmupdates and you could drop a new install file and the os would notice and install it. is there such a folder in LineageOS?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] thetac0:
I'm currently building an experimental version to move from unofficial builds to the official ones without having to wipe.

So if anyone needs that, i could upload it somewhere.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] xvolt:
[MENTION=8150866]thetac0[/MENTION] An experimental version would come in very handy! Do you think it would be possible to collaborate with the maintainer of the nightlies (solk2?) and make the experimental version available for download from download.lineageos.org?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] thetac0:
Well as it turns out things aren't quite as easy as i thought.

I tried building a new unofficial experimental version wich includes:

review.lineageos.org/#/c/160272/

and

review.lineageos.org/#/c/160268/

This doesn't seem to work, i still get the same signature error when i try to install the official signed builds.

I would imagine that you would need an official signed version with these these changes and then you would be able to update to the normal version.

To be honest i don't actually know.

EDIT: I am now pretty much certain that we would need an officially signed migration build.

EDIT 2: Just got confirmation. We need an officially signed migration build. So we either bug them to make one, or otherwise theres no chance. I'm gonna keep building my own for now, don't really feel like setting everything up again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] YR@MJ:
Camera, NFC and IR

Hi! Can someone confirm 4k video recording, 60fps and/ or 120fps?

Does NFC and MHL work? IR blaster?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
4k video recording works with the stock camera. NFC works as well. I don't use ir blaster/mhl, so I can't tell you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DavidMelb:
FYI: lineage-13.0-20170325-nightly-ks01lte-signed.zip is now released :D

QUESTION: in CM13 there was a folder called cmupdates and you could drop a new install file and the os would notice and install it.

Is there such a folder in LineageOS?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
The integrated updater works only since the latest nightly from the 25th. The downloaded builds are saved in "/data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates". Not sure if you can simply drop a install file there and the system recognizes it. Further investigation is required ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Dan21st:
I have an issue with this ROM, I'm not sure if I missed a step or something but, after flashing the latest build (1st of aprl release), with or without nano open Gapps the phone was stuck at the samsung logo with no way of getting past that (even with pulling the battery and trying again). I got it to work with the previous build (from march 25th I believe), but even with this one, on the first boot it get's stuck at the logo, but after pulling the battery once it usually goes past that and Lineage boots.

Is there anything I am missing or anything I can do to stop having this stuck at logo issue?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DavidMelb:
what does the samsung logo look like or say? I'm guessing there is something wrong with your bootloader, are you TWRP?

---------- Post added at 11:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

I tried an "automated" upgrade and saw the file in /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates

but you need the LineageOS bootloader and I want to keep TWRP so it didnt work.

Manual upgrades work for me because I like to keep the .zip files on my external sdcard...

& FYI lineage-13.0-20170401-nightly-ks01lte-signed.zip is now released
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
Really great rom and kernel. CIFS working properly.

Thank you Solk2.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Dan21st:
Besides the Galaxy S4 Logo, it says "set warranty bit kernel" and "kernel is not seandroid"

Yes, I am running TWRP 3.1.0-0. Is there a specific bootloader made for LineageOS?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Diapolo:
I also switched from last CM nightly to LineageOS nightly and everything is working like a charm, didn't observe any problems yet. I hope [MENTION=432222]sol2k[/MENTION] is starting to keep our device/kernel updated!?

Thanks,

what command do you use to mount a samba share?

now i'm trying with aryamod8.3 and arterkernel 11 but i cannot make it work

this rom has a one hand mode and maybe a dark theme?

:fingers-crossed:

thank you
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
You can get a dark theme on the google playstore. There is no one hand mode in lineageos 13.0, if you want that you need the "newer" lineageos 14.1. However then you would loose the ability to use themes, because lineageos 14.1 has no theme engine (yet). So atm you cant have both, unless you find another custom rom. (I believe crdroid has both features)

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] alien6:
Hi, by stock you mean the one extracted from stock ROM (or Note 2 camera) or included by default in this ROM ?

could you confirm wideband codec works ? ie. amr-wb

I haven't played with custom ROMs since SGS2 where wideband was lost on official CM...
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
By stock I mean the cm (well lineage now) stock camera app. But I am not saying it isn't working with other camera apps. Just the Google camera app crashed for me when filming with 4k, lower settings were fine.

Can't help you with codec, sry.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
Settings/parameters highly depend on kernel. CIFS on Arters kernel should (generally) work though (i used it before). Try to omit sec=ntlmssp, noperm and iocharset=utf8 and make sure you're using 'busybox mount' not the standard 'mount' that comes with the rom. Edit: Or try the standard mount if nothing else works. I'm not sure anymore.

No password usually means any password will be accepted so either omit the 'password=' parameter or try to set any 8 letter garbage password.

And be aware that 'su -mm' is only supported by SuperSU. Its necessary to bring the mounted folder to an unified mountspace that can be seen by any app. Otherwise only the shell (UID) would be able to see the mount. I'm not sure about 'adb shell' though. Possible that it can mount systemwide even without SuperSU. I'm using 'Connectbot' to invoke my shell scripts. There its necessary.

Edit:

Oh, and 'mountoptions=' should be removed so it looks like this:

su -mm -c busybox mount -t cifs -o rw,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,noperm,noatime,sec=ntlmssp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 "//192.168.0.1/folder" "/mnt/cifs"

/mnt/cifs must be present before mount:

mkdir -p /mnt/cifs
chmod 777 /mnt/cifs

hi all

I'm just playing with CM/Lineage on i9506 recently, and it seems I cannot have more than 1160mAh charging current

I got weird results, yesterday got 1120, today 920, and now after 5 minutes 1080 on original samsung charger 5A/2V. I tried Galaxy Tab S charger (5.3V/2A) and it was even worse - 640mAh :/

at home on QC2.0 powerbank I get 1900

are my samsung chargers/cabled broken or what ?

Hi, I was struggling with similar issue recently. I ended up replacing USB port (flex) as I had PC connectivity issues. USB connectivity is actually a common S4 issue I heard. So I bought the flex and replaced it myself. Connectivity issues are gone and every time I chage I get around 1800mA (I use Nokia 1.5A charger) while before I was getting various amperage and I was sometimes as low as 640mA. So I'm not saying that you have the very same issue, but it's just worth checking.

BTW I would like about general opinion on Official LOS 13 build for ks01lte. Is it stable? I'm using unofficial LOS 14 builds but I have various issues (gps, bt, audio, restarts).
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
Yes, its very stable. Kernel and drivers are up-to-date. Solk2 doing a great job maintaining.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] jakub_pl:
Then I will try. Los 14 has those cool features like switching to recently accessed app (double-tap on left button) but I think I can live without it ;)

One more question: does the MMS work?

Wysłane z mojego GT-I9506 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
Don't know. Most issue with calls/sms/mms should be configurable anyway (APN and such). Even if it doesn't work out of the box for every provider it should be fixable easily.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] jakub_pl:
Its not that simple. It was not working in official cm builds. I contacted developer named gugu0das and he released build with fix. Then the same fix was incorporated in kyasu builds. And since I use their builds recently MMS is working. So I'm just wondering if it's still an issue in official build.

Wysłane z mojego GT-I9506 przy użyciu Tapatalka

As far as I know kyasu committed the exact same fix to the official code, so MMS should work just fine.

lineage-13.0-20170415-nightly-ks01lte-signed.zip

released yesterday, installed automatically, working well :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] jakub_pl:
I've installed lineage-13.0-20170415-nightly-ks01lte-signed.zip and I have one minor issue. I can't disable stock clock app (com.android.deskclock) as I have installed com.google.android.deskclock and just don't need the former. I was able to disable stock calendar app without any problems. So whats wrong with clock app?

Another question is: is it possible to use left screen button to display list of recent apps (instead long pressing home button)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
You can disable stock clock app with apps like sdmaid or titanium. However I can't tell you if that would cause any problems.

You can change the behaviour for any button in settings. So yes that's possible.

Edit: I believe you were talking about on screen buttons? Anyway, you can change the order of on screen buttons too in settings.

Maybe take a look at Arter97's i9506 patch (arter97-ks01ltexx-cm-patch-2.0.zip) and reverse these changes with E330S files. It's a Qualcomm binary and some calibration data. Not sure if Arter97 did more unification that might be present in his roms already.

Just an idea.

I'm using XXUDOJ2 from here: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9506-develop/i9506-twrp-modem-collection-t3065064

I noticed that every time I want to disabled Debugging in Programmers Options device gets restarted. After restart, "Debugging" option is still turned on but I can turn it off. With every next try - turning on again and off - device gets restarted. So it's like you need one restart per disabling "Debugging" :/

Another issue is related to notification sounds or alarms. It's the same issue as in LOS14 I think. Today my alarm started waking me up and audio was garbled, it was an effect which you hear when your processor is unable to handle the playback. BT was turned on, so I toggled it off (while alarm was still beeping) and after seconds audio was totally fine again.

Yet another problem is device rebooting under various scenarios. It can reboot few times during day (like today when I was using google maps heavily - GPS turned on, screen on, charger connected).

Is this ROM working on Galaxy S4 SHV-E330S/K/L?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DualJoe:
Power consumption (screen-on) is kinda bad with mpdecision and i never get over 3:30h screen-on time. Limiting to dual-core@1.2GHz without mpdecision gives much more battery (6h+) but with typical downsides (longer wake up from deepsleep, micro lags, longer loading times...). I couldn't achieve any tradeoff so far. Tweaking the interactive governor doesn't help. Mpdecision is very aggressive and overrides nearly everything. I have no clue how to get that under control to save more power.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] YR@MJ:
Few bugs.

I noticed the ADB restart bug. ADB switches on fine, but the device restarts when trying to turn off, with no effect.

Workaround - disable adb manually by typing in rooted terminal:

stop adbd

You can then switch ADB off in Dev Settings with no restart.

When I use energy saving mode no. 1 (there're two energy saving modes apparently :confused:) the screen doesn't wake up when receiving a call. I hear the ringing but can't answer until I hit power/home button to wake the screen.

Third minor issue is that my saved Smart Lock NFC devices are no longer recognized after an OTA update.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] :
Talking about bugs I would like to add the headset bug. After finishing a call with a headset you only get sound on the right earpiece. But plugging your headset out and in again fixes it.

However with all the bugs mentioned here I think none off them is a deal breaker. I am using the official los 13.0 builds since they were available and I am really happy with it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] YR@MJ:
Thanks for reliable ROM

Big up to solk2 on making this port!

ROM is reliable. What's most important for me in LOS 13 is latest security updates and new app permissions settings.

I probably left Samsung official Lollipop behind for good. Let's face it, it's outdated and probably not secure.

What I miss the most from Samsung firmware though is the Fast Burst mode in their Camera app. Anyone has any info about working port (Android 6.0) of Samsung Camera app for our device?

I forgot to mention another issue - device doesn't boot into OS when off and charging. One has to unplug, turn on the phone and plug the charger again.
