Hi thanks kongacute for this amazing ROM

I have a problem with the google search app, the mic doesn't seem to work, i can't even configure OK GOOGLE nor say commands by tapping the mic the colored dots don't move indicating speech recognition.

Note that the mic works perfectly with other apps, record, messenger....
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Cryptonite26:
It is a known bug for LoS (Lineage OS) for our device which this rom is based off of. there are some workarounds or at least there was for android 6 I never checked for the latest ones. However this fix bugs some other things for instance the IR sensor (infrared sensor) so you won't be able to use the phone as an IR remote control.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] metallforest:
Well, I did a clean flash of the latest version of the ROM and checked wakelocks and such, the phone is going deep sleep as it should when locked during night. Now I'm sure that the batery is damaged, near to death. It charges fully in 2 hours approximately but drains instantly to 0% when in use no matter what percentage it has charged, so I'm gonna to buy a new one tomorrow.

I hope you can port Android O to our device! Cheers!

Battery Solution

Try this method on common battery problem before buy new battery . It's a cache of battery info, including max capacity and usage, as seen from the battery graph. If you charge your phone fully, then delete this, the phone will recreate this file from scratch on the next boot and hopefully you'll get a considerable increase in reported capacity. It is totally safe to delete this file, I've done it on my s8+ where the battery would charge to 65%, say it would take another 4 hours to charge to 100%. It would then jump to 100%, then taking off charge the phone would drop immediately to 70-80% charge. Deleting this solved many battery issues on many devices.

Boot to recovery, use file manager to delete batterystats.bin located at /data/system/

Or follow the step as photo attach: TWRP - Click Advanced - Click File Manager - Click Data - Click System - Click "Batterystats.bin" - Click Delete and you are done. Reboot into System
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] JagiChan:
How old has the battery been? (Usually, the phone batteries are toast in about 2 or 3 years time, depending on the number of charge/discharge cycles).

Is there any short circuit in the phone (for example was it ever exposed to rain/water/moisture)?

Does the phone turn on when the battery is dead (like at 0%)? If it does not turn on then the battery is gone.

Does the phone heat up abnormally during charging? If yes, then it is definitely that the battery is dead.

You can check if a battery has gone bad, by its physical appearance. For example, a battery that is pretty much toast will be bloated.

Battery problems

Had the same issue few months back. Turns out, the battery was toast. Like from 99% to 10% in a few seconds. Getting a new battery solved the issue for me.

I want to upgrage to marshmallow

Dear Kongacute, pls help me out here. I have a samsung Galaxy S4 i9500, with Lollipop 5.0.1. I want to upgrade to Marshmallow but I don't know how to go about it. I will really appreciate your help.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
1, Download Marshmallow rom and copy into ur phone or usb otg.

2,. Go to GearCM thread and take Gear TWRP.

3, Connect ur phone (in download mode_use combe home, vol down, power) with ur pc

4, Choose AP (dont remember:silly:) and choose TWRP file (should be .tar file type). Then Start to install it.

5, Boot into recovery mode by combo home, vol up, power.

6, Flash ur ROM u need.:laugh:

Enjoy Marshmallow ROM:fingers-crossed:

Dear All SirS:

To RR 5.8.5, do I need to do a clean wipe from RR 5.8.4 (Wip system . data. dalvik/cache.)...Or just need a flash and only wip cache/dalvik?

Please advice...thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] chananyu2547:
Clean install is always recommended,but dirty flashing will do just fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
Also f2fs filesystem for data and cache. U may have better performance. But it will delete all ur data in internal memory;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] metallforest:
Well I'm back, I bought a new battery and the drainig problem is fixed. Now I'm facing some bugs on the ROM.

1.- I can't take pictures with any camera app. I deleted the camera2 app with the system app remover and used open camera as default camera but nothing changed, even flashed the simple camera zip but the problem persist. When I open the camera app it says that the camera is being used by another app. I have to completely reboot the phone to take one picture and after that it doesn't open again, also it takes a lot of time to open and even some times the phone reboots after opening the camera app.

2.- I'm having lag spikes when receiving a call, the ringtone lags as hell and the phone hangs after second ring.

I did a clean flash. Deleted Everything, even internal storage to make it as clean as it gets. I didn't had this issue before with the original OS. :(

What can I do? I don't wanna return to the official OS, it suck A LOT and lacks lots of the goodies a custom ROM has. Help!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] JagiChan:
I am also facing the same issue with the updated ROM. The camera app opens once after a reboot, but later comes back with the message camera in use and there is only the message with the close button. I tried other camera apps, including the stock Samsung LP camera app; but the result is always the same no camera.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] metallforest:
I sincerely hope kongacute fix this issue soon, otherwise I'll have to stick with the stock ROM until this one gets updated. Taking pictures is very important for me and my work
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
Lol. Camera is hard to be like stock if u use rom like this. Also do not uninstalled aosp camera, just feeze it. And use camera restarter when u get it show the camera is being used by another app.;)

Iam too what's the difference . there is big change in performance ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
Its filesystem research by samsung. Its optimize for mobilize device. It will make ur device more performance. But our device is pretty good so maybe u wont see big change in performance.;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] yagnavalki:
I think this is the final update for this rom..........

Hoping that android O rom is going to be released soon.......

Any Info regarding ETA ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Amsomitty:
I use google assistant on a daily basis and since i flashed this ROM i haven't been able to configure the OK GOOGLE command or even if i manually tap the mic, i can't even use the mic in Gboard. If you could please provide links for these workarounds you've talked about. It would be really nice of you :good::good:.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] guest4711:
No, it's not. F2fs has advantages for filesystems mounted r/w (faster on writing, less fragment ation), but it needs more space for administration. System is mounted r/o. Converting it to f2fs would waste space without having any benefits....

Hi

just switched to this ROM from lineageOS, did a full wipe and everything. Looks good, RR came a long way since I used it last (~a year ago) :)

Everything works, except when using a bluetooth headset (Plantronics E80) for a phone call I get garbled audio (both ways). Trying to answer a Whatsapp phone call with the headset paired causes an OS restart. Using the BT headset just to listen to an audio file works fine.

Installing the modem listed in the 2nd post didn't solve the problem (and resulted in worse reception).

Any ideas? thanx in advance :)

No.

I know you're not updating anything major on this rom anymore but can you at least update the security patches? Or is it a far fetched request? Anyway... I'm enjoying the rom greatly, it's just sad that Xposed for Nougat came this late and I just jumped on Nougat based roms like your after Xposed got updated (not that i'm complaining cause hey it's still Xposed lol).
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
Security patches already update in final build.;)

Hmm... Sorry i never use bluetooth for that.

PS: Does anyone face with this prob too?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] SignetSphere:
Haha, no I mean when a new monthly security update rolls out from Google ;)

Also if you don't mind... is there a chance that you can add a random number selection on the lockscreen when using PIN unlock? It was present on the RR on Marshmallow so i was wondering why it disappeared on the Nougat build.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] kongacute:
U know security and RR feature depends on RR team. I think they remove it. Also September security patches now is lastest. RR team stopped Nougat develop, they move to Oreo already. And source code maybe available in December i think.:D

So i guess pre root using magisk right? If I want to switch to los su addon do I need to uninstall magisk first or just flash the su addon right after flashed rom?

Yes, Or if u flash custom kernel like NevermoreX, magisk will remove. But i recommand to flash magisk uninstaller.:o
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] vahillah:
I think I will use stock kernel since it just good enough for daily usage together with RR.

Can I dirty flashed on top of last build?
