Many thanks for the response Steve.

Not sure how to retrieve a logcat - please could you let me know where to look?

The version of Maps is just the one I installed from GApps, which presumably has been updated through Google Play.

I think it might be possible but not without modifications to the ROM.

You would need to change the fstab and you would not be able to change the uSD card to one that doesn't match the partition layout & filesystems you defined.

Hey arco.

Just wanted to check with you if you prefer USD for the donation, as my bank will levy fees if not EUR.

Hello

I have using a I9192 for more than 4 years, i got tired of the outdated android 4.4, so i install lineageOS, first, i installed lineage 14.1 with android 7.1 (i'm noob but i got it), everything works, except my contact list which is empty, (contacts are in SIM) and do not appear, So I installed this ROM hoping it will fix it, and again everything works except my contacts are empty, and. I can make calls, receive calls, receive texts, send texts, but the contacts do not appear, can't save contacts , I think this can't be fixed.

Could it be because of my SIM?

I'm a Venezuela user (Movistar) and the SIM it is more or less old.

Solution: Go back to stock?

Edit: Mobile data magically fixed, still no contacts and i can't add them in SIM
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] kurtn:
Nowadays we don't have contacts at sim card. Maybe you can find an app for reading contacts from sim. Maybe in another phone. Try to get them int a vcf file. Or to your Google account if you use GApps.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] claudio.db:
Hi!

You can use Dumbphone Assistant to manage SIM contacts, and also copy between sim and phone storage.

You can find it on F-droid store:

Copy contacts to SIM card and back

I currently have an I9195 running arco's amazing LOS16 with encryption enabled.

Now, I would like update to arco's LOS18, but with a completely reset system (I already backed up everything!). I have twrp-3.5.0_9-0-serranoltexx running and tried to format data (including data), but it fails with:

Now, I am afraid to brick my phone if I start messing around with the partitions, so I though I'd rather ask here before ;)

How can I completely reset my encrypted phone and then install LOS18? Does anybody have experience with that?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] steve8x8:
Remove encryption, perhaps install (and reboot into) latest (3.6.1) TWRP, factory reset, then format data - this would be my guess.

You may add "wipe system" to that list if you're feeling bold ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] boernsen:
How do I remove encryption? I cannot see/find an option to do that:

Clicking the first entry "Encrypt phone" doesn't do anything.

I searched the internet about how to remove encryption and only found suggestions to factory reset the phone, but no one could ensure that this works. (e.g. here or here) It is confusing to me. I wonder how this can be so complicated...

The factory reset from TWRP didn't work, so the only remaining option I can think of is to try a factory reset from the android settings menu. Does anybody have experience with that?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] kurtn:
Factory reset from system is the same as from twrp. Maybe you have to update twrp.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] boernsen:
I currently use TWRP 3.5.0_9-0, which is the one linked on the first page of this thread as well as on arco's LOS11 thread. At https://eu.dl.twrp.me/serranoltexx/ the latest version is twrp-3.6.1_9-0. Can I safely use that or is there a reason why arco does not link that one?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] boernsen:
I just tried a factory reset with twrp-3.6.1_9-0. This is what happens:

Any ideas?

UPDATE: For reference, I just solved it by following Fix 2 of this guide, i.e. changing the file system of data to EXT2 and then back to EXT4. However, make sure you start with a freshly booted TWRP. It didn't work for me right after a failed data format. It seems like it messed something up. After a reboot it worked.

If there's no further updates from Lineage, there won't be any more builds of this either. From Lineage point of view, it's at End Of Life.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] johnmaster:
I don't understand! Can you tell me a bit about how this works? My question is the following: lineage is Google and it is the one that releases support for the devices and if they don't release more for that, does it stay there? Or how is this?

There is still something in the pipeline. We will see what will be merged or all will be abandoned.

Really a project usefull ,thanks by your enfort to given us a best customized android system room.

Why did i the instalation for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini i9192 and my battery discharger more fast than normaly?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] johnmaster:
check if the battery is good in cycles. you can use accubattery.apk and check. if so, use (Root Essentials_2.4.9apk) to do a battery reset since the rom reads the code wrong and will download it
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] steve8x8:
(I would have posted that to the TWRP thread but that one didn't get updated for a long time, and perhaps it'd be the wrong one anyway.)

I've run into a strange issue with the TWRP 3.6.2 provided via the links in the OP.

I'm used to "adb devices" returning "recovery" so I can push stuff into internal storage once that has been cleanly wiped/formatted.

With that particular recovery installed, I get "unauthorized" - and there's no dialog to change that.

This seems to happen only on this phone model, and with this particular TWRP version.

Going into sideload mode fortunately still works, otherwise I'd have to go back to my old Linux laptop that runs Heimdall... so I flashed LOS, GApps, and Magisk using "adb sideload" and enabled adb in developing settings, to copy the TWRP 3.6.1 image (from twrp.me) to the device and flash it. With that one, adb works as expected. (With a minor issue: After installing TWRP 3.6.1, one. has to boot into system once before powering down - otherwise power-off charging would result in vibrations every 5 seconds but no charging circle showing up. Mysterious, and at the first time frightening... Apparently this is not limited to the S4mini though.)

@arco68 have I hit a bug or a feature of your build?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
Could be many reasons, remember you should allow it some time to "settle" as sometimes it uses more battery in first few days. Else most likely you have a different setting eg have wifi scanning, location, brightness set higher etc turned on, or you are running an old app that is not so compatible with new rom or did you not do a clean install & the an app is using old data? Hopefully battery app mentioned above will show you

Hello, I see this thread stopped to be busy some time ago but I hope that someone is still listening...

I would like to keep on using my S4 mini (GT-I9195) so I tried to install this Lineage 16. I've just finished and It seems OK

but when I try to setup a Google account in the preferences, a white screen with "Checking info..." and a blue running circle appears and it never goes over that.

As gapps I installed MindThe Gapps 9 arm 20230922 because in the "open Gapps" site fo 9.0 I didn't find the S4 mini: shall I have to install some other Gapps package? If yes, which one?

Also, when I attach the phone to a PC (Win10) through USB I can see the phone name but I can't see the internal memory nor the card (both when set as internal or as external memory).

Hope someone can help.

Thank you

EDIT: I tried changing the USB preferences from "none file tranfer" to "file transfer" and now I can see the internal storage.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] MrGoodtunes:
This may not be much help, but... All 5 of my S4mini's have been running on a downsized battery, Samsung # EB404465VA (1140 mAh). I've been very happy with this because it works totally okay for me, and makes this tiny lightweight phone even lighter!

This smaller battery was widely available at ~$3 USD for years, but has also become hard to find now. The point is that if you can't find the original battery anywhere, then maybe you could find some other battery that will work. For example, my current daily use phone (S10e) is running on a drone battery. It's a lithium polymer type, instead of typical lithium ion.

More about my S10e battery and weight reductions is here:

Upgrading the S10e's battery theory?!

I had an idea. I previously owned an S10e that was second hand and the phone's battery was so bad it couldn't last through the day. S10e battery ( EB-BG970ABU ) I was craving for a big battery so I ordered a Samsung M51 with a large 7000mAh...

Looks like that app is installed and is running a device integrity check before doing anything useful. The most common check is google safetynet.

That's a feature ig GApps or microG. What's installed on your phone?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] fabiospark:
I had no luck with both open Gapps and Mindthe gapps so I ended up installing G play services and g PLay store from apks taken from APK mirror, and they started to work.

Also the app of my bank showed a warning it would have not worked on a "routed phone" but instead it worked with no problems.

I checked with "Root and Safetynet" app and the phone has passed both checks.

Thanks.

Is there a dialer that would show the history log with calls grouped under each single day? Like the stock one I had with Android 4.4?

To free space on the internal memory I formatted an SD card as "internal".

In the storage section of the preferences I still see the two things separated with their own size and used information and though for the SD it shows 2.39GB used of 64GB, when I tried to move an app from the internal to the SD card it didn't move saying that there isn't enough space on the destination. I rebooted the phone but nothing changed: is there anything else I can do? Thanks.

I have a very strange problem with the volume keys controlling the music that is playing and skipping to the next/previous song. I use PowerAmp as a music player, and even if PowerAmp does NOT play music at the moment, if I (often accidently) long-press a volume key, PowerAmp starts, then skips the track and starts playing music. Quite annoying during class at university. Is this an app-related or a rom-related problem? :) Thank you in advance!

Hmm, to prevent further questions like this maybe just add info next to download links? Something like this:

Not like it's gonna completely stop ppl from asking, but maybe will stop some of them. I can fully understand that they're super hungry for Pie, but... there is just nothing more than they can find in Oreo. There is actually LESS functionality than in previous versions (at least at this point).

And to save this post from being just spam...

About Magisk - I flashed 17.1 along with the first build back in the day, followed by installing Magisk Manager 5.9.1. Root itself works fine and I didn't face issue with app forgetting permissions for any other app (tested for AdAway, Get Assistant and Titanium Backup).

The only problem I have is in module repository - searching crashes the app. Also not all modules are working, but my bet - it's more about Android Pie itself than this certain device/build.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Aztek92:
I'm using Bluetooth earphones on daily basis and didn't face any problem so far. SERRANOLTEXX as well.

You can flash Quickstep launcher to get Recents. It's somewhere in the thread, posted by acro, but beware, Quickstep has a bug that results in a crush, so I would recommend using any other Launcher (like Nova) on top of it.

And Navbar is there. I guess you're talking about gestures (Swipe up on home button). No, it's not available for now - for any custom ROM I as far as I know.

Problem was solved next day with Magisk Manager to 6.0.0.

Btw. if you have LTE model, be sure to switch to LTE in connectivity settings. For some reason, it is set to 3G on default.

Try a new clean install from ext.Sdcard if you have one on your hand.

Wipe the phone ,factory reset.system, cache, data and data media.

Flash ROM and opengapps ( I prefer nano or pico ) than wipe cache and Dalvik , reboot.

Don't restore apps with TB. Load them from play store.
