I'm using GPS daily basis and it works perfectly in V7 (it worked also in V5 and V6).

Maybe somtimes it takes quite long to lock the satellites, but it works.

If it fails to lock the sats quickly, I use to turno off and on the GPS and it locks quickly.

Hope this help.

Installed V7, true clean install (removed also the "android" folder on external SD card).

Fantastic release! Tnx to the developers and all the JDCTeam!

So far only a small annoying issue, same as in V6:

Still wrong folder where camera stores photos:

Android/data/org.lineageos.snap/files/

instead of

DCIM/Camera/

Any clue how to change the Camera destination folder? :confused:

GPS

It is not just your problem and you are not boring the forum, as you say.

Your input is welcome and I recommend you capture logfiles framing the occurrences of the GPS issues you are observing so that you may present them to our developers should they request them.

I thank everyone for their answers and for their interest. [MENTION=7576522]GOOGLE_USER[/MENTION] Unfortunately I have already restored version 2 making the issue log file becomes a problem.

Keine Ahnung, irgendwas scheint anders zu sein auf deinem S4, als auf denen, bei den es geht.

Fragen:

1. war das phone mal auf der letzten Stock-FW ( wobei ich nicht weiss, ob es einen Einfuss hätte) ?

2. hastest du mal ein clean install OHNE irgendwelche AddOn's (google kram's, ...) und NUR die GPS app probiert ?

engl.

No idea, what's wrong with your phone, but i seems there must be something different then to the others, where GPS works.

Q.:

1. had the phone ever been flashed with the last stock FW ( I don't know if this has any influence regarding GPS) ?

2. have you ever tried a clean flash without any AddPOn's (google stuff, ...) and ONLY the GPS app ?

I did a clean install with V7 today and flashed gapps after the first reboot, but I don't have Google Playstore now. I flashed Gapps nano for Pie. How can I fix the problem? Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Play Store is NEVER excluded in a default install of any GApps package. Check for a .gapps-config file on your device, and check to see if the Play Store is either disabled or hidden from the launcher.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
According to my experience gapps must always be flashed after the ROM without a reboot in between. When I did reboot first, I had the same problem as you described.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DerHimmel:
All right what you say ..... but:

If you have read carefully what I wrote, my GPS with version 2 of this ROM works perfectly and fixes the satellites in record time and continues to work over time. With the later versions, I tried them all, always doing a clean installation, the GPS doesn't work. With version 7, on the day of installation, fixes of the satellites in 36 seconds after a few days, with 7 satellites detected, did not fix even after two hours of waiting. What I don't understand is: Why with version 2 does it work better than a TomTom and with the others it nails?

Translated with Google translator I apologize for errors and incorrect terms.

P.S. Did you write in German for my nickname? Sorry I misled you in my language would be "Il Cielo"
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I forgot about this, but then again I always flash a new GApps package when I update device ROMs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
Hello i have the i9505

I will flash the rom

I think it must first be twrp 3.2.3-0 that i flash in order :

Rom > Gapps > Addon AromaInstaller-Pie-2.0.zip > Root

can someone please confirm me please thank you in advance :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You're good, so long as you have TWRP installed first.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
Yes !

thank you for yr response i'm going to flash this super rom

EDIT :

in the tuto they say :

" select Install to install rom, root solution, Gapps and Aroma. "

I think they did not put the real order

because the gapps always flash just after the rom normally

- other people can confirm me here ? :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
It doesn't matter really, because the root solution is flashed to a different partition. Gapps won't overwrite that.

Just don't boot before flashing gapps. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
thanks but

I could not flash a little problem :

The other day i installed twrp 3.2.1-0 (the .tar file) by odin 3.12.3 and he told me: Success

but i did not check if he was well installed by going there

And just now i flashed by odin 3.12.3 twrp 3.2.3-0 (the .tar file) and he told me the same : success

I then unplugged the cable and removed the battery and reinserted and restarted.

and at the moment i go to twrp and it has not been installed, there is always the original recovery :(

Is it because my version of odin is too old?

Or because it would have to be rooted? yet they do not specify in tutorials that you have to be rooted before so i do not think that's it ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
When flashing TWRP try rebooting into recovery again immediately after that. It's kind of like "fixating" it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
yes thanks :) indeed

meanwhile i read it by google and i re-flash twrp then after removing the battery and reinserted, i started directly in recovery vol up + home + power and twrp appeared :)

the rom is perfectly installed,i discover the many parameters,i have the impression of having such a brand new :laugh: thank you JDCteam for this great rom!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
little problems :( :

-My led at the top left of the screen does not light up when i receive a calls or sms :(

-When i open the playtore it displays " information checks "

then the screen becomes black for life whether it is wifi or 4G :(

EDIT :

Problems fixed ! :laugh:

I just rebooted my i9505 and now the Playstore does not block more black screen and ask me my mail google and password so everything works!

And i tested the SMS and calls and that's it! The led lights up and flashes well, the reboot has solved the problems ! it's a miracle, thanks to JDCteam your rom is great,very fluid! :victory:

As I mentioned here https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79338767&postcount=1163 :

I installed v7 and GApps without reboot (as I always do) and get stuck while booting.

So I installed v7, boot without problem, configure some stuff, and reboot in recovery to install GApps (I redownloaded GApps). Everything went fine.

So I do not think it is so important. I will try the same process next time. (Usualy I also cannot authenticate with WiFi the first boot)

Solution battery drain

I installed version 7 and again my battery got drained. The same as with version 6. BUT I FOUND THE SOLUTION.

It's the bluetooth scanning that must be disabled. At least in my case, I don't use bluetooth.

SETTINGS --> GOOGLE --> LOCATION --> ADVANCED --> SCANNING --> TURN OFF BLUETOOTH SCANNING
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
Then your phone behaves totally contrary to mine. Every time I forgot to install gapps in one swoop with the ROM I had immense problems with the play store service and various other Google apps, which would throw stop error messages left and right. Only when installing gapps directly with the ROM all works smoothly.

Notification LED Not Working For SMS & Missed Call With The Freedompop App

Hello, I am running LOS16R7 with a clean install on my SPH-l720 and I am having trouble getting the notification LED to work with the Freedompop app for SMS & missed calls. It is working fine with K9 Mail. I am wondering if this is an app issue as mentioned earlier in the thread not caught up with Pie or something else? Has anyone else had the same experience with the Freedompop app and this phone?

Hi, I installed the Rom Optimized-LineageOS-16.0-Version-7.0 on my S4, I installed the pico open-gapps all according to the instructions described here on the forum. The rom is a great job but I have a problem: the fluidity of the device is not like that of the rom nougat, when I scroll through the images or within the various menus, the display has visible lags. is it a development problem? thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gatarax:
Hello

Me too in app Gallery,the scrolling images is a bit jerky and the images are not displayed right away.

The "video" tab also takes a long time to open.

But under lineage 14.1 i noticed exactly the same thing, and it does not matter! this original app is too old and outdated,it's normal :)

I fixed the problem immediately by installing my favorite and great famous photo/video players : mx player pro or archos video player pro ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Aqua1ung:
Many thanks for all your work! Question: what is this "root solution" that the OP is talking about? Do I need it for ROM's installation, or do I need it just to root the ROM? In other words, will this ROM work without the "root solution"? Can that be flashed later? And assuming I need it, where would I get it from?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
Rom itself comes with pre-built root which is enabled. You can disable it from development settings.

Other root solutions include magisk or supersu

Google those 2 for more information.

And yes, all root solutions can be flashed later if needed

hello

I've re-installed it by the playstore and i do not have any more forces close :) the app works perfect thanks :)

other for the app archos video player i always forces close but this time it's the fault of the dev app that has not yet made compatible the app on Pie. But luckily mx player pro 1.10.50 works well

Is :

xposed installer, busybox and lucky patcher are compatible?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] telemarker:
Thanks, but this is not an app gallery problem. The lags are present in whatever is displayed on the screen, if I enter the "settings" section and scroll the various options from top to bottom or vice versa, the menu scrolls but jerky, as if the processor were busy doing other work heavy. I enter the "messages" menu and scroll through the messages, the scroll delay is excessive compared to the nougat, it is the whole system that is slowed down. if I charge a nougat backup, the phone is very fast, smooth running, I don't know if this problem has happened to others. I'm very sorry, because this Rom is a good job. :(:(

First I'd like to say that this rom is TOP shelf. . . fantastic job. I thought I'd flash it to my burner phone(SPH-L720) since it was still sitting on 5.0. . . there are a couple of things I haven't completely wrapped my head around yet like:

1. Random SELinux is disabled notification?

2. I elected to flash the aroma add-on after flashing/setting up the rom, when I chose Viper4AndroidFX, after flashing then opening there was NO driver, NO processing so I flashed back to audiofx and I'm sure it's the only audio app besides YTVPB(flashed via twrp). . . I even tried flashing Viper4AndroidFX in Magisk, it detected the driver but did not process either. I'm sure I'm overlooking something but I searched an came up negative in here?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] GOOGLE_USER:
VIPER

Greetings, outlawed flat-lander.

Disable notification to resolve the annoyance.

DO NOT attempt to set to enforce.

Unfortunately, my best recommendation at this point is to reflash [attempt 'dirty' first -

may

yield success] and this time flash Aroma without a restart of any sort in the procedure. I believe that caused your issue. Then, upon opening the APP, you will be notified of the need to download the driver in a pop up. When confirmed positive, it will do so and reboot and all will be well.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
You guys saying about the selinux notification, I guess u mean the message on boot.

That's normal to see it at custom rom. U couldn't see it at stock rom. That's normal

[MENTION=248873]jdc[/MENTION]team, thank you for the continued support guys.

Im plagued by a haunting issue on this device on all of your past releases; I'm think either a hardware fault, configuration error on rom end or that's just as good as it gets with i9505 wifi hardware...

Continuously and sporadically; WiFi drop out, trying to re-obtain ip address but can't, then looks like it disconnects and then reconnects for 10 mins or longer then randomly drops again...

I read this is a thing with this hardware and linerage elsewhere, is it?

I've tried all sorts of trick here with my router to make sense of it but I can't.

Have you guys any experience with this, is this a thing with this hardware?

I just recently tried to flash another compatible NON-HLOS.bin but that didn't improve things.

All of my other wifi devices perform well with my router settings including linerage unofficial on pollux windy.

Do you know if the wifi hardware on this device is picky towards wpa2, 2.4ghz vs 5Ghz, I use OPENWRT here.

Just would like to know if I need to buy new hardware. Even without stable wifi, it's still a capable of fling media device... But alas l, I need youtube... We basicaly use this S4 as a little TV for the kids so we can dine and not have them destroy an outing.... Yea, we're those parents... ;)

Thanks:good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] GOOGLE_USER:
WHOA!

Glad I saw this before stepping out. Yes, disregard those links that I provided. They will not apply to you. I kinda still recommend that version of ODIN though because it is from that era. And your baseband and bootloader do still have to match. You are correct, I believe, that your best course is an entire firmware package because I know of no collection of extracted offerings for BB & BL for non-international variants.

You can look for and download firmware ending in QB1, if you like, to prepare yourself. However, unless someone reads here and recommends that you can safely proceed further, then I would encourage you to wait until I can verify. Or you can search and read up about it yourself. It would seem you grasp the concept, I am just under time constraints that prevent me from ensuring there aren't peculiarities involved with this variant and I possess another. Just exercise due diligence and caution but your heading in the right direction!

question:

is your mobile data connection during your tests on or off ?

Background:

I serve my neighbour with my WLAN and times ago I wondered why he connects and disconnects from WLAN in sometimes very short intervals.

the answers was he always had his mobile data AND WLAN ON at the same time, so his internet connections auto switched according to the BEST or STRONGEST connection between mobile data and WLAN.

So in my router logs it appeared as WLAN connection problem/drops, ...

more to investigate:

are your sure it's your phone and not your router ?

try to completely remove your WLAN connection parameter (SSID, pwd) from your S4, reboot it.

try to completely remove your S4 from your WLAN router, maybe reboot the router afterwards.

Are MAC filters active ?

is DHCP active ?

any parameter in your router set which influences the WLAN connection establishment ?

for tests try WEP, then WPA, the WPA2.

anything in your router logs during WLAN connection establishment ?

try another router/access point (from a friend, ...) to check if it's your phone or your router.

do WLAN drops appear with Stock FW too ?

anything to find in the inet regarding WLAN with OPENWRT and S4 ?

my S4 hasn't had ever any issues regarding WLAN with different FW's , but the same router (Fritzbox) which has - not sure - the same WLAN hardware as OPENWRT: atheros/broadcom
