I spent some time on lineage-16.0 trying to figure out what Google did to break Glonass (or is it the lineageos guys?) and found it can be activated with these commits.

serrano-common [url]https://github.com/jlask/android_device_samsung_serrano-common/commit/8a604c9c647450f4ab691b2055f0072fb19d1376[/URL]

hardware/interfaces [url]https://github.com/jlask/android_hardware_interfaces/commit/2e199760138edec2c00603c426312dec79d006c7[/URL]

However, even with adding the use of Glonass satellites, the time to fix is still really slow until you give it time to establish the first fix.

So I cannot really say if having the extra satellites helps.

I think there is still a bug where the satellites used in the fix are lost.

I have observed this using both the "Gps Status & Toolbox" app and the "Gps Test" app where they both seem to get a good fix but then they loose all of the satellites they were monitoring. This can happen if the screen auto-rotates (very clear with Gps Test app). It also seems to happen if the app gets minimized or the screen turns off.

I have tried changing settings to tell Android that it should keep the app active in the background, etc. - telling it that it shouldn't try to preserve battery. But that doesn't seem to help from the GPS starting all over again with finding satellites it can use.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] steve8x8:
I wasn't clear - data is arriving properly, so BT is OK - the problem is that the app display itself (and the widget, btw) sometimes doesn't get updated. I've been using this app on an OPO running Nougat (TugaPower) before and never saw such a behaviour. I'll go into dev settings next and play with GPU settings there...

BTW, xDrip can be found at https://jamorham.github.io
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] IronRoo:
Impressive looking app (& home setup by that dev)

You could double check app has set properly to not optimise battery,.

Turn on developer options

scroll to bottom tap "standby apps"

Check app (or apps) are set to "exempt"

if not report to devs (not sure if app or Lineage issue)

Try setting xDrip etc to "active" as possible work around

(maybe also try stopping any unneeded apps from running at startup which may be using resources/conflicting)

(maybe also check memory usage in developer settings for xDrip when issue arises)

It's possible to get system logs, if you feel confident using adb.

install this logging app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog

set permission via adb as in app description (main log only)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] roohooo:
First of all, THANKS to the devs for the great work for this old phone ;)

However, I'm facing the same odd issue as kdolum: GT9195, latest firmware I9195XXUCQL2. Installed lineage-16.0-20200311-UNOFFICIAL-serranoltexx all fine along with MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm-20190615_031401. Booted fine, installed phone and messaging apps. All functions worked out of the box!

However, after several days and - without any further modifications to installed apps and settings, the speaker stopped working for all apps, notifications, alarms whatsoever. However, it is working during phone calls, but not when setting it to hands-free, that is, using the speaker. Even when trying to adjust sound settings, the only speaker output I get is when changing call volume. All other sound settings, whether changes to volume or specific alarm/sound/tone, will produce no speaker output. I've restartet the phone, uninstalled all additional apps - no change. Reinstalled Lineage OS 16 - same effect, but now already after 2 days the speaker remains quit.

Audio worked well with LOS 14 and is also fine under LOS 16 via Headphone jack.

This is really weird - any pointers very much appreciated!

Thanks!

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] roohooo:
You mean it is a hardware error? Then why has it been working with LOS14?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] kurtn:
Try 14.1 again. Or stock ROM to be really sure.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] dj_s_021:
Dear friends, thank you for your help

What is the most stable ROM for this phone right now?

Android 9 or Android 7.1.2 for GT-i9190

Which ROM bug has less and better speed? Also, does all the hardware work well?

Battery consumption is very important to me!

1- This ROM

2- [ROM][GT-I9190/I9192/I9195][Official][7.1.2] LineageOS 14.1 for S4 Mini

2- [ROM][OFFICIAL][N 7.1.2] AOKP-ROM [S4 Mini Duos/3G/LTE ] - weeklies

please help ??
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Claudio4780:
I'm not having a GT-I9190 however this LineageOS 16 ROM is/was running perfectly on my GT-I9192 and GT-I9195. If you wanna try it, follow arco's recommendation with MindTheGapps
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] kdolum:
In my experience this ROM is stable, and I have not been bothered by bugs. I have very good battery life, even though I have completely disabled Doze. But I'm also very careful to keep bloat off my phone and don't turn on data or wifi unless I'm using them.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] roohooo:
Well, thanks a lot for the pointers. It appears it really was the speaker. I swapped it for the one of a spare S4 Mini and it did the trick - at least until now I did not experience any issues again. Anyway, I have no idea as to when and why it actually failed.

Cheers,

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] steve8x8:
Any advice what kind of mistreatment might cause the top 30% of the display to show a "blue screen" (similar to a clock widget, but with no response to touch) with black below? Apparently the active apps are still running, as my smartwatch gets updates.

The only way out I could find is to press the power button for 15 seconds to make the phone reboot.

Build is 20200311, which seems to be the most recent 16.0 one.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] kurtn:
Magnetic mistreatment. Your phone thinks it has a flip cover. Disable it in connected devices.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Claudio4780:
GT-I9192. I'm using the latest ROM but have to say that I never looked into that subject before. It might have been there all the time...

Has anybody perhaps got an idea what is going on with the account syncronisation? Whenever I restart the phone, the syncronisation of GMX and Whatsapp (No.2) is always off and it does not give me the option to "Synced" (No.3). Telegram and Google are without fault.

For Whatsapp I have to switch off & on the ""Automatically sync data"(No.1) and suddenly it offers me the option (No.4)

To get GMX running I have to remove the account (No.2) and add it again. Then it gives me the option to "Synced" (No.4) it

I'am not using the data or battery saver

GT-I9195, twrp-3.3.1-0-serranoltexx.img, lineage-16.0-20200311-UNOFFICIAL-serranoltexx.zip, addonsu-16.0-arm-signed.zip, open_gapps-arm-9.0-nano-20200422.zip, fresh install. (Coming from lineage-14.1-20180724-OFFICIAL-serranoltexx.zip, I think).

First I installed it in a backup phone without SIM card to see how well Android 9 works. Everything worked ok without obvious issues, so on Friday I updated the work phone. Additional apps are Google Maps, WhatsApp, Telegram, WhatsApp. Bluetooth, NFC, WLAN remains disabled.

A few issues:

- during install Trebuchet (?) did not respond during the first installer screens, installation went through anyway.

- during first boot "something" was unable to instantly access the SIM card, this issue remains

- during reboots at some point the PIN for the SIM card needs to be entered. Once entered, the next "boot screen" appears, then after a few seconds the "PIN for SIM card" screen appears again for a few seconds. This is at least irritating.

The major issue is battery handling. On the first day after a short usage of Maps between noon and evening there was a huge battery drain, even after a reboot. During nightly recharge, the battery charge remained at 95%. Used Maps twice during the day for less than 30 minutes, just to see how it behaves. In the evening battery showed 41%. During an outgoing call the phone turned off. Apparently the battery was entirely empty.

We will see how it survives this day with just a few phone calls and some WhatsApp usage.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] steve8x8:
[MENTION=7408301]olh[/MENTION] You may enable the "kill app" feature (keep "back" button) pressed at the end of the developer settings. Also, Maps may need its Battery Optimization setting changed, but an app draining battery should not survive a reboot - disable autostart.

problems with gapps

hi guys, i installed the latest 16 rom with some play store problems. these are the steps i took. wifi was fine in all steps.

first - i tried with mindthegaapps, but couldnt get playstore to work.

second - i tried opengapps, but also got google/playstore errors.

third - tried to go back to mindthegapps, but got stuck in a bootloop. even without any gapps.

fourth - just went back to opengapps but still had googledplaystore errors. the errors were : preparing for setup, and there was a problem communicating with google servers.

i just need it to get playstore running to play some games, but without playgames/playstore, the games wont work. (i already tried apkmirror/apkpure)

could anyone help? any gapp solution would do, thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] budgies:
1. factory reset

2. opengapps: ARM -> 9.0 -> pico

3. enjoy
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] cnc4ever:
sadly, that's exactly what i did in the second and fourth steps, of without the enjoying :(
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] budgies:
Strange.

- Is your's a GT-I9195/serranoltexx?

- Did you use the latest official TWRP v3.3.1-0?

If you can answer both with yes, I'd recommend doing a full wipe and just reflashing Lineage/Gapps (and maybe Magisk).

This might be the best approach anyway, but I can't really say anything about other device type/TWRP combinations, as this is what I use(d [now an 17.1]).
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] cnc4ever:
yes and yes.

after many many tries, i gave up with 16/17 versions and just went with 14.1/opengapps.

it's a shame but i'll settle with nougat for the moment.

thanks for your help!

Disconnected from cellular network after sleep and can't reconnect

[MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION]

I really like this rom you made, thank you for the hard work!

I've been using your LOS 16.0 v20200311 for a couple of weeks now and everything seems to work smoothly, with one exception.

Sometimes when my S4 mini wakes from sleep, it is disconnected from the cellular network (wifi still works fine). Turning on/off airplane mode or trying to select a network operator from the settings doesn't reconnect to the network. The only thing that works to get the network connection back, is a reboot

I don't have this problem when I use your latest LOS 17.1 rom, nor on the original stock rom. I think when I used your LOS 16.0 20200215 earlier, the problem occurred a lot more frequently (but it's been a while so that might just be my aging memory :eek:).

I have some saved logcat files, is there anyway I can file a proper bugreport?

Background info:

I'm a beginner to custom roms. I'm trying to install the custom rom in the opening thread of this post (serranodsdd). My phone is a GT-I9192. I've read through as much of this thread as I could, and I came up with this list of instructions (all of which is copy pasted from other posts, so thanks to everyone who posted before me):

- Factory reset my phone using stock "Settings" then boot into clean install

- Download TWRP (from Play Store or download the apk directly)

- Download custom rom (which is a zip)

- Download Magisk (which is a zip)

- Download MindTheGapps (which is a zip)

- Install TWRP

- Wipe system, data, cache using TWRP

- Flash custom rom (zip) using TWRP

- Flash Magisk (zip) using TWRP

- Reboot into system

- Reboot into recovery

- Flash MindTheGapps (zip)

- Reboot into system

- Wait for google assistant to start, then configure phone

- Install Magisk Manager (apk)

List of files I'm planning to use:

- Play Store version of TWRP, or me.twrp.twrpapp-26.apk

- lineage-16.0-20200515-UNOFFICIAL-serranodsdd.zip

- Magisk-v20.4.zip

- MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm-20190615_031401.zip

My issue:

I'm at the part where I just installed TWRP and I'm trying to "Wipe system, data, cache using TWRP" so I can flash the custom rom. The problem is that when I run TWRP app, it doesn't have an option to flash a rom. I tried to troubleshoot why, and my best guess is because TWRP doesn't have root permissions (even though I checked "Run with root permissions" in TWRP options). In the TWRP app, when I click into the "TWRP flash" option, a message pops up at the bottom of the screen that says "Device not rooted."

I've tried this with 3 different versions of the TWRP app, all with the same result:

- the version from the Play Store

- me.twrp.twrpapp-26.apk

- me.twrp.twrpapp-22.apk

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. If Magisk and Magisk Manager is what allows root, then it seems like a catch 22 to me if TWRP needs root in order to flash/install Magisk. This is all new to me though so I'm sure the issue lies with me.

Anyone know where I'm going wrong?

Question 2:

Do my instructions above look okay?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] rho-bot:
I was never a friend of TWRP app, also recommend to use ODIN (which can easily bring device back to Stock factory ROM, update to latest BL/Modem, and install TWRP)

The app is only for install of TWRP, or some non-System ZIP flashing, and will also not install properly as priv-app on LOS.

Anyhow, if you follow your procedure, you should reboot to TWRP to flash system.

[...]

- Install TWRP

- Reboot into recovery

- Wipe system, data, cache using TWRP

- Flash custom rom (zip) using TWRP

Thanks to rho-bot and kurtn for the help and to everyone involved in making all this work. Below I will post the instructions I created and followed to upgrade my phone (GT-I9192) from stock OS to Lineage. All of the info below I took from other sources, mostly posts from this thread and guides online. I'm posting them here for reference only as a follow up to my previous post. I'm not posting this for anyone else to use. If anyone does, it is at their/your own risk.

TWRP bootloop Samsung S4 mini I9195

Hi all,

i need your help please.

Yeasterday I installed LineageOS 16.0 on my S4 MINI (GT-I9195), firmware version number PDA I9195XXSCQAG

I followed these steps:

- First Download & Install TWRP (TWRP 3.3.1-0 \ Odin3 v3.13.3)

- From TWRP i did a Factory Reset (Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Select Cache, Dalvik Cache, System, and Data)

- From TWRP i installed this the last version of LineageOS "lineage-16.0-20200515-UNOFFICIAL-serranoltexx.zip"

- Installation completed without error, i rebooted the system.

Boot LieageOS and I get only the logo that spins, then it restarts and TWRP bootloop every time.

I tried a lot o commands to solve this issue: (I found them on google)

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc bs=256 count=1 conv=notrunc

or

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc

the command is executed correctly but Boot/Reboot always goes to TWRP.

How to fix this issue please?

so i think its not ready for daily using ?
