Installation without the addon ... works :)

Using the JDC Team Aroma addon (installing as good as all options) however bricks the install process.

The phone reboots twice and gets stuck in the 'optimizing'.

The S4 gets hot and I repeatedly hear 2 clicking sounds (I have no idea what they mean).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
[MENTION=5358727]fdgroote[/MENTION] I got something similar using the jdct aroma zip v5. the first boot never completed, after 25 minutes I rebooted and waited another 20 mins before restoring version 10
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Try this way:

Flash ROM->Gapps->[optional] Magisk, let the ROM boot and then reboot to recovery and flash Aroma.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
about to give that a try now... thanks for the suggestion

UPDATE EDIT: the 1st stage without the JDCT Aroma zip went fine, it booted up OK.

but... the same thing happened after flashing the aroma again. the bootup never finished so I went back to my restore. thanks anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Hmmm, may I ask what apps are you installing/removing from Aroma?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
here's the aroma log
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Thanks, however all seems fine in your Aroma log. Can you clean install the ROM again and use Aroma to install or remove one by one the apps you want, to find which option in Aroma causing the problem?

There may indeed be a problem with Aroma and AEX & GZOSP ROMs. Side, Buff and Salim will take a look as soon they can.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:

Well guys about Aroma.....

Just tried Aroma with the latest private AEX beta and worked fine.

No GApps installed tho, Aroma: Add Bufccore, Recorder App, Remove Live Wallpaper Picker App, Remove Email App - I installed Magisk manually tho before flash Aroma.

What GApps are you guys using? Pico or Nano is recommened.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
I always use Pico... I remember that youtube vanced got dropped for a little bit, was that bug related ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Buff99:
No, simply laziness on finding the right updates as there are so many versions it's hard to decypher which is the right one for us...

OK so I've just started out on following your request to hunt down the glitching app or process in aroma v 5

so far...

* dirty flashed v11 AOSPExtended after wiping system, cache, dalvik /art and running magisk uninstaller

* also flashed Pico Gapps and magisk 19.3

* rebooted no problems

* then followed your OK aroma list above as I have all of those myself

* add buffcore

* add recorder app

* remove live wallpaper picker

* remove default email app

* REBOOT OK...

now I'll work through the list of what remains from my aroma log one by one until I hit a problem. will update this reply.

* add adaway OK

* add JDCT toolbox magisk version OK

* add YouTube Vanced dark theme OK

* add google camera as a system app OK

* add Xperia keyboard OK

* remove Eleven music player OK

* remove snap camera OK

*** add Better Battery Stats WOULD NOT BOOT ***

gonna try the two remaining items, remove devcheck and install syslog and then try the whole list in batch without BBS.

FINAL UPDATE: got bored and just flashed everything again as mentioned above but jumped straight to batch install via aroma and added everything listed and removed everything (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF BBS) and everything booted up OK. so for me at least BBS is the culprit.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
for anyone who's interested the port of Xposed for android 9 seems to work fine (so far) on this rom.

you need Magisk to run EdXposed the unofficial port (I tried the YAHFA version Riru_-_EdXposed-v0.4.5.1_beta(4463)_(YAHFA)(4463))

and before that you need Riru_-_Core-v19.5(27) module.

both of these can be downloaded via Magisk Manager

you also need EdXposed Installer and just in case EdXposed Uninstaller which are attached.

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-edxposed-xposed-framework-android-t3912255

there's also a list of working modules on this link.

Hows the performance in last release?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 3mel:
there's some pink screens and the Wi-Fi drop outs are a shade more frequent, otherwise it's excellent, I'd happily keep this as a final rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jpxsat:
Oh thanks, actually stoped using this roms because od the pink flashes that lead to a black screen that only recovered turning off the screen and turning it on again.

When pink flashes are gone I'll definitevily use this rom :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Vybze:
Im really loving this rom but I have a problem that im not sure if anybody can help me with so I install the rom and was using but has soon has the screen times out for the first time the touch stops working and wiping and installing the rom again makes the touch works again until the the screen times out again. any ideas on how i can fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Have you ever change you screen to LCD? Please, try the latest version of the ROM. If you still have problem, take logs. Help the devs to help you! The problem is only to few people with LCDs screens replacement.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Vybze:
Yes I'm using a replacement LCD screen
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
After OptLOS16 V12 still didn't boot, I tried AOSP Ext, but that doesn't boot either with my LCD screen.

I keep wondering why this is no problem in the OptLOS15.1 kernel, which does boot with my LCD.

Anyway, I grabbed a last_kmsg with each (AOSPExt and OptLOS15) and attached them to this post.

You would think the relevant messages in the former would be:

[ 2.206542] synaptics_rmi4_i2c 3-0020: synaptics_rmi4_query_device: Non-Synaptics device found, manufacturer ID = 0

However -and now I'm startled-, the same messages appear in the last_kmsg of OptLOS15:

[ 3.530548] synaptics_rmi4_i2c 3-0020: synaptics_rmi4_query_device: Non-Synaptics device found, manufacturer ID = 0

So maybe the manufacturer ID was the wrong path to look for?

Fantastic job. I was on Oreo RR and I must say that this ROM is snappier and seems to be more battery friendly. My phone was running too hot on RR Oreo, but now it's Ok again.

The only downside is the memory management that aggressively closes apps frequently. I think it's related to new versions of Android, with apps "eating" more memory plus the amount of memory of our S4 (2GB).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Buff99:

Ive just removed ext sd card and all ok!

But every time I need to reboot I have to remove ext sd card...

It stuck on: smartphone is starting... Screen...

So I reboot without ext sd let it boot and after insert ext sd is ok. Sytem read fine the card...

But this is real bad to me as I use this device to listem music...?

Is that a way to fix this ext read stuck? The rom is trully smooth...

What's your device?

Have you done a clean install?

Have you followed the flashing instructions from one of the first posts. They're describing precisely what has to be done to get the rom working. It should work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] InTheY2K:
I didn't flash Aroma, nor gapps. Only the ROM, and neither of the Pie ROMs will boot. Can't get past the Samsung startup screen. When it gets to the point where it loads the ROM, it reboots. Endlessly.

OptLOS 15 Oreo does not have that problem. Side said he couldn't find a way to get around this. [emoji17]

Stone Cold Dead

Comrades!

My SGH-M919 is on Release 11, Magisk, and I was getting ready to update to R12 this weekend...

Last night I turned off my SGH-M919 for the night. This morning it's stone-cold dead.

* The phone does not turn on in normal mode

* When I plug it in to charge (Qi or cable), there's no screen pop with a battery

* The phone won't start in recovery mode (TWRP 3.2.3)

* The phone won't start when I swap in a known-good battery

* When I remove the SIM card and SD card, it also won't start

Any ideas? On what went wrong or how to fix it?

This seems more like a complete hardware failure than a SW failure, but I thought I should mention it here just in case.

I just used the built-in cast feature for the first time. I found a movie stream for someone and decided to watch it. I used Opera for Android latest non beta version and couldn't figure out how to stop audio coming out of the phone and the TV simultaneously, albeit with delay between them.

I normally cast local files and don't use the default method, this isn't normal though is it ?

MINOR UPDATE: the same thing happens using youtube vanced and the default casting app so it's not attributable to Opera.

Yes but why? I'm noticing battery drain with all ROMs I've tried. Tried optlos 14.1 and 16, about to try this one. Surely if you're creating the kernel you can work on it? I have undervolted, underclocked, set conservative governors etc but still they all drain. Pie optlos is too laggy, nougat optlos is fine but drain still there. Tried sidecore, alucard... Gonna try optlos 16 again if this one doesn't work.

Unable to access local storage on this release, or on R9 either.

I've just installed R13.

First of all, thanks for this ROM.

Second, I can't seem to access local storage -- and I couldn't on R9 either. That is, if I go into Ghost Commander (on R9, where I had MagiskManager installed) and now on R13 (where I have not installed it yet), I can't see local storage.

For example:

If I try to access /storage/self, I get a pop-up message

on Ghost Commander. Using the (nano app?) Files, I get nothing -- the application just appears to exit. This happened on both R9 and R13.

I can access external memory via /storage/<UUID>, and I'm going to fix that UUID to something reasonable.

I thought I'd done a bad installation of R9, which is one reason I moved to R13.

I wiped cache, davlik, data, and internal memory before the install. My SD card was freshly formatted with ext4.

As you can image this is a problem -- among other issues, backup and restore of settings is difficult if not impossible.

Anyone recognize this issue? If you need logs, please let me know which ones -- I'm sure I can puzzle out how to extract them.

Insertion of SD card - OS changes FS from ext4 to fat32

I formatted a 128 GB sd card with ext4, inserted the card, and powered up the phone.

The "new card" dialog appeared and I choose "external memory."

AOSP wipes the drive contents, and -- after I extract it to check -- the drive is formated as fat32.

EDITED:

I then used recovery to re-format the drive to ext4, and it works fine now. I do have a complaint: the filesystem is under /storage/<uuid> instead of /storage/0000-0000, which makes using that drive very difficult from external scripts. I'll see if I can figure out how to fix that.
