When I was using v1.0 everything was normal, I upgraded to v2.0 and the phone turns off after 20 seconds of using it.

EDIT: seems to work after flashing the rom again.

3.1 released

fixes some UI smoothness stuff and 'allow apps drawing over other apps'

sorry guys
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ZanyG:
Thanks for this! Works fine for me now.

Thanks to that the wireless issue is fixed for me.

Another issue came from the google play services (bitgapps) which prevented deep sleep and would suck the battery dry overnight. Might have been my mistake in restoring accounts via titanium though.

I'd love to see more governors to maximizing battery life and cpu underclocking at ~160 mhz added. That doesn't need to be a default - just unlocked to be set in kernel managers. 160mhz@850mA works for my device but others are apparently unstable below 384mhz.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DavidSuter393:
Your welcome. I'm always here to help. When I had installed the Google app, it did the same thing. When I uninstalled it it went away. Cheers to you too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ZanyG:
Have you figured out a way to have google apps work? Perhaps with other packs (open gapps doesnt seem to have a A12 version yet)?

The best I could come up with is to deactivate the google stuff and switch it back on when I need it - which is tedious. It might be time to look into foss alternatives, but sadly google location services make a huge difference in gps performance for me and I'm not sure if there is a replacement that works for that :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DavidSuter393:
Use Google go lite. That is the best thing I can think of. Sorry I accidentally wiped off your emoji by mistake lol

If anyone interesting to test the new build of Optlos 19.1 - v8 by @slaff2, before it becomes public, please join the Discord server.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gnikolson:
I am interesting but it ask my phone bumper for verification, and I dont want to use it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
I pmed you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
I think it was bad idea using Discord because it ask personal phone number for verification. It stop many users join developer forum. Slack was better.

IMHO
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
It also stops many trolls, ghosts and guys with double accounts etc. from join and you have better management on the channels and members. It also doesn't block the history on messages like Slack which need you to pay to see that.

Slack had and has 516 members and only about max ~10 was active (and perhaps I say a lot) and participating. If users want to join the group/server and not testing or contribute in some way in development, they can still use XDA like normal. I see no difference with the current (82) members in Discord compared to Slack, in fact the activity is much better.

Discord is also much more popular than Slack and more people have already an account.

I had similar conversation with @pocketrule and we agreed it's kinda better that way.

Btw, I don't know if it's gonna work but try this if you don't want to add phone number, but keep in mind people will also have to post their xda profile and what device they own in welcome channel so we can give them role.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
Thank you for detail answer.

I am not ready for active development of Android ROM because I have not enough ROM development skill.

I have only program development for Linux and Android skill.

I am only interesting in development process of new 19.1 Opt LOS (for future).

Now I use 18.1 LOS because it have monthly security updates (it's important for me).

I think XDA Forum is enough for me.

Thank you and all JDC team for great work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
No you misunderstood, it's not group only for development, I meant to test the ROM, report bugs etc. and generally be kinda somehow 'active".

By saying that, doesn't mean you have to post everyday or something. Just when new test build release and you want to test it or whenever you feel to post something. No pressure at all to post something. You can just join and watch the progress etc.

You are more than welcome to join whenever you want, (the link I mentioned above should be able to bypass phone requirement for Discord), the only requirement is to post ur XDA profile/device at welcome channel when you join so I can verify that is you. No pressure to post anything in Discord.

It's important for us the security updates too, and generally the upstream. There is a new member @slaff2 who joined and helping side and generally the ROM. Actually the new build it's by himself. :p So I hope more regular updates will come soon.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
Thank you.

It's not working for me. I tried 3 times with different e-mail (now all of them are blocked in Discord) and all time it ask phone verification :(

I think Discord is not for me :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ZanyG:
Does setting soft-touch keys to light up on press for short amounts of time (1-2 sec) work for people?

For me in most circumstances the duration is much longer with the set amount having little to no influence.

The lockscreen being a notable exception where it seems to actually turn off as set.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pocketrule:
How do you register your account. I've had problems to create an account with Discord when using my desktop browser. I had to use the dedicated discord client.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
I used Firefox on Linux (my PC is Ubuntu).

I tried to start the desktop client, but it also requested a phone.

In any case, I have already exhausted my list of email accounts (and desires to mess around with Discord). :)

Thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Users who don't or can't join Discord but want to test early build, contact me and I will share the link in personally and if you find anything report to me so I can forward the issues to Discord.

I already sent a pm to vip5912.

I hope soon (into the week) the build will be released for everyone.

🎉New Build Optimized LineageOS 19.1 - V8
​

⬇️Download: Gdrive

🗒️Changelog: Basically upstream.

Thanks @slaff2 for upstream and @side as always. 👍
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] carlos974:
@slaff2 and @side Thanks for the V8 version.

Works well!

As in previous versions during a dirty flash, saving and restoring addons is not done.

For my part, I put the same wording: ro.lineage.build.version in the backuptool.sh file as in the build.prop file

And it works...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] przemekSiemens:
in V8 in gt-i9505 i can't update the wallpaper from my photo, the screen goes back to the previous selection
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Fe(OH)3-lix:
Have been using the ROM on my old S4 for quite some time, loving it but I met the following issues:

- SIM card doesn't work, I believe this problem is because my S4 is a SPH-L720, but I'm not sure so really just asking on this one.

- I really can't change my wallpaper for some reasons. It works perfectly fine with the default Lineage wallpapers but when I tried to change it to one of my own images, it crashed.

- YouTube (as well as other substitute like YouTube Vanced) works pretty weirdly. The audio works fine, but the videos themselves are just corrupted, with black and write strips of the videos displaying. It still works fine on browsers though.

I don't really know how to deal with these problems, so it would be nice if I can get some answers, thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Steefmeister:
Thanks for all the effort put into this! Helped me to revive an S4 phone so my daughter can use it for watching YouTube kids :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mmmm-):
I am currently using v7 (working very nicely, thank you 😃).

I tried updating to v8 by doing a dirty flash, but ended up in a boot loop. Tried wiping dalvik too before flashing with the same result.

I have now restored my v7 backup which is working fine again.

I was wondering what the process is for upgrading. I'm sure a full wipe before flashing would work, but is this really necessary? I'd rather not have to set everything up from scratch again!

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Retrial:
Check my guides.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mmmm-):

I've tried sharing a picture via bluetooth and it worked (Using version 19.1 - 8.1 ). How to reproduce the "send files .. instantly fails"? Is the problem happening with ONE file only or with ANY file? Can you upload ONE file with which the issue is reproducible ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] GG44:
Wonderful ROM, installs great and runs smooth. Thank you for all of the hard work! Any specific reason the ability to add SIP accounts was removed from the stock dialer? it was in settings/calls/calling accounts, the push worked great, and you can add many numbers for voip. I was confused to see it missing from this beautiful rom.

For those using this ROM: how does it compare with JDC Team Optimized LineageOS v18.1 in terms of performance and battery usage? I'm not sure if I should upgrade, since everything already works well on v18.1.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Trubbs:
I was the same and decided to backup official LOS install and try out v8.

I didn't go back

For my usage better battery, YMMV. Plus I appreciated the extra little JDC tweaks here and there like double tap screen to turn off.

Taking a backup and trying it is easy enough, follow the excellent guides referenced in the OP

Jfltexx no gapps, 2nd phone and music player is my use case
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
I start testing of Opt LOS 19.1 (v8.1).

I installed latest TWRP, make backup, make clean install (LOS + MindTheGapps).

All works well (phone, SMS, WiFi, BT) except data encryption (Setup - Start Data encryption - Reboot - Nothing).

I found:

Only devices that launched with Android 9 or lower can use full-disk encryption. Devices that launched with Android 10 or higher must use file-based encryption instead. Android 10-12 support full-disk encryption only for devices that upgraded from a lower Android version. Android 13 removes support for full-disk encryption entirely.

Full-Disk Encryption
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
I think it would be helpful to add to first post:

"You can use Magisk for passing SafetyNet"

because many users from Official LOS don't know about it

as Official LOS have SafetyNet Passed by default.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
@slaff2

I just want to clarify that your latest patch (v8.1, December security patch) is already in the JDCTeam repository.

Just for fun, I built the my own Build according to the side instructions (init & sync repo, build) and I want to make sure that it is the same as yours.

Thanks to @slaff2 and @side.

P.S. I mean functionally the same not binary.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] gnikolson:
I have install the rom, I use it for daily use since upload , it is a good update , the only problem I have is in Bluetooth pairing with a cheep smartwatch it is not pair, with version 8 it was connecting. Thanks for December update 8.1.

I haven't any problem with pairing.

I use Gadgetbridge.

Maybe your partition table got corrupted. You can try to format data in TWRP (not only wipe). If that does not help, flash stock rom along with the pit file to correct the partition table.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stuie1952:
I have finally found the time to upgrade to the new version.

However I am unable to do much. Even when wifi is showing on the status bar and in settings, the system does not recognise it and asks me to connect to a network.

Any suggestions much appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
I don't know this is correct or no.

- I downloaded JDCTeam Opt LOS 19.1 repo (repo init & sync),

- downloaded & applied Official LOS 19.1 (S_asb_2023-01) patch files (git am),

- build & flash my new ROM.

It's working at first sight (Security String is 2023-01-05).

P.S. I figured out how "Upstream merge" in build.sh works.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vip5912:
Just in case my final steps:

I downloaded JDCTeam Opt LOS 19.1 repo: repo init & sync

. build.sh: "Upstream merge" & "Build Release" (I disabled all "git push" & "adb wipe")

If you have less 32MB RAM use ZRAM (apk install zram-config) for ROM building

Dirty update by TWRP: wipe dalvik, cache, system & install ROM, MindTheGapps

Reinstall Magisk by app: patch boot.img & Install Image Boot by TWRP

At first sight all are working fine and smoothly. Free RAM is 700-900 MB (with installed apps).

Can anybody try this kernel?

It contains performance optimizations that should make your device faster. Also should give you a better WiFi experience.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] carlos974:
I patched this boot.img with magisk before installing it.

The device starts normally, but the wifi disconnects (does not hold).

Returned to original wifi working fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] slaff2:
@notnoelchannel can we see the source code changes somewhere (github ?) ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:
Can you try w/out magisk?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] carlos974:
I installed the boot.img without magisk.

It's the same the wifi disconnects
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:
I'll revert the wifi optimizations then. After that WiFi should work
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:
here's a new kernel, wifi should be fixed and i added one more optimization

Kernel removed because of wifi not working
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] carlos974:
Again it's the same wifi disconnects.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] slaff2:
@carlos974 how can I patch this new kernel with Magisk and try it on my S4 device? Is there a document explaining this?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:
Thanks for logcats i already know why wifi isn't working on this custom kernel and im working on fixing it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] notnoelchannel:
wifi should be fixed in this kernel:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] slaff2:
