Unexpectedly turns off.
I wiped i9505 and flashed crDroid 2014-10-08 and gapps. After reboot while first setup the phone turned off 2-3 times (after I selected Wi-Fi; after I selected time zone). Every time I turned it on and tried to pass next steps. But now the phone even doesn't boot up to setup screen: after crDroid logo the red led lights and phone turns off.
After I write this comment I wanted to back to my previous firmware but turned on the phone one last time. The setup screen was appeared ("Select language" menu). Wi-Fi has been already setup (what I entered on previous tries). I pressed "next" several times and now it seems to show desktop .
Interface looks smooth, but I'm afraid of the further unexpected offs.
Is it normal that phone offs during the installation? Will this rom works okay?

Inserted sim and phone turns off while ussd request. Seems this rom is not workable at least on my phone .

Replaced your 4.4.3 gapps with "PA GApps Stock 4.4.4, 2014-06-29" and it seems now everything works.

How to reproduce? Just tried to edit name of one contact and it works okay.

Btw, HDR doesn't work in camera. Seems to be CM bug.

black sreen for some sec after a call
my gt-9505 goes on black screen after finishing a call for some seconds when i use any CM11 ROMS even this rom!!!
any help!

Great ROM!
This is a great ROM! Keep up the good work.
I have encountered bugs which you may want to look at in future builds. I am running the official 20141106 on my i9500:
Sometimes, when I press the power button to turn the screen on, it shows a black screen with the date and time. It does not go away (only with reboot). I can still use the status bar to go into settings (or open a notification) but it does not last long as it switches off on its own.
Another bug i encountered is with floating window. It only displays the app in a smaller window and nothing can be done (eg. resize, open another app).
Important question: when updating versions, do I have to factory reset and clear cache etc? Or can I just restart in recovery and flash the newer version?

echo ROM kit kat 1.2 problems

Won't let me.post on main thread..
I'm getting random reboots when charging and constant reboots when on the phone, some cases the phone turns off.
I've tried 1.1 and 1.2 both as bad as each other, tried clean install with complete wipes.
Galaxy s4 i9505 BTU
Forgot to add
For the call side of things I've tried from both a synced Google contact and a manual dial unsaved one but still restarts or turns off.
Also on shazam it says the microphone is in use all the time so doesn't work.
Ive had to revert back to Echo rom V9, hopefully the issues on the new kitkat will be sorted soon
I don't understand why we have to post in a separate thread for help when nobody ever reply's..
So basically if your a member who doesn't post often then you have no help or support!
There's plenty on the main thread but not in sub sections

hi , installed this rom but i still haven't network connection
Double boot when starting phone
Hello all together.
Yesterday I flashed the latest rom on my skomer.
So far everything runs smooth but I recognized one weird thing.
During boot (doesn't matter if a warm or cold start), the phone boots twice.
Means I see the Pin entry screen and after approx. 15s I see the boot animation again.
It does not matter if I enter the pin or not, it boots a second time at all.
After the second boot everything is OK.
This was a clean flash from theboegls prerooted image with normal pa gapps flashed.
Does anyone have a solution for this issue!
Thanks a lot,
Kubunter
Just installed the new nightly(4.4.4.101014) Everything is running smooth. Just wondering if there is a radio for android 4.4.4 and how do i get it if there is?

I read the forum and tried this code and it worked for me.
run this code in your terminal if you cant find terminal get if from playstore using wifi.
adb shell
su
find /efs/|while read s; do chown radio:system $s; done;
find /modemfs/|while read s; do chown radio:system $s; done;
chmod -R 777 /efs/
chmod -R 777 /modemfs/
reboot
After reboot your mobile data should be working
Camera not working
Thank you for your great work, hopefully devs are reading this subthread, too.
It would be nice, if following message would be referred on the first message, since many people have issues with network. I managed only to find all the information by very inconvenient googling:

Did you use the right clockworkmod mentioned on the main post? Also your firmware might be too new, therefore flashing this one might help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40232503&postcount=43]
If I got it right it must be
- install odin and get cwm on pc
- get supersu and cm on your sd card
- reboot in download mode
- flash cwm on phone
- reboot in Recovery
- well i think you can backup already
- root with supersu
- reboot in Recovery
- wipe data/factory
- install
- reboot​
I use 1010114
wifi and camera work here, but sim card seems not to be accepted
good use of hardware buttons after reflashing (this had issues before)
[did not install GApps, but that should not be a problem..?]
tried 10.2 from flxo and had the same problem with SIM
Double Boot
Hello all together,
I have a logcat of the problem, saved at pastebin.
As I´m a new user, I´m not allowed to post a outside link.
Is it possible that I will send someone who is able to post a link a PM?
The second boot happens around 22:44:54 o´clock
Something with a android process seems to be wrong.
Is anyone able to help?
Thanks a lot,

Android Lollipop?
Pushed fix for streaming YouTube should now work next nightly. Downloading source now to build recovery image. Thanks for waiting. I will try to solve the problems we have but I can't guarantee anything due to lack of device. I'm going to discontinue my work for ste devices soon. As long as it builds I will try my best to keep supporting them but fixing problems etc I can no longer continue.

There are still STE developers and I'm sure this one will get lollipop working if he can't I doubt we will see it , but lollipop might be a large merge and roms might have to rebase or start from scratch porting hardware workarounds and eventually bring back features.
intermittent network signal
Guys please help. I tried this ROM and it looks great but I'm loosing network signal almost every time I'm starting up navigation (Sygic) and I use it a lot. I don't loose it immediately, sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after 20 min. but the signal triangle finally goes black and doesn't come back after switching off navigation. This makes it unusable to me. I've seen people reporting problems with network signal so I guess it's not the app. issue. Sometimes it looks like I just loose data transfer (it shows no internet) but the signal bar shows that I have network. Some other time I was not moving at all but the signal bar was going up and down from max. to min. within 3 sek. After few minutes it stabilized. Something seems to be wrong with the antenna or modem, whatever is responsible for network signal.
And another thing, that looks to be related, I don't have any arrows and network type sign (2G/3G) showing if I do or don't have internet connection.
There were some posts talking about a fix for network problem by typing some commands somewhere but could someone explain it step by step how to apply it, if it is a working fix.
Thanks!
After a reboot the home button doesn't work until I enter my pin code, which comes like half an hour after boot! How do I fix it and does anyone else have this problem!?
I was about to throw this piece of **** phone away but i gave it a last chance with Vanir. It took me nearly 2 hours to flash the Rom , but i got it working.
First of I want to thank the dev for the work, I realy apreciate it. You managed to make this phone usable again, I hate Samsung so much for this crap Software they used for the Xcover2.
After using Vanir for one week (using not testing), here is what is not working for me:
-maximum volume for every call
-stock photo app crashes
-Location is very inaccurate, my guess is the cell tower fix is working and the GPS is not
-sometimes i cant shut off the phone, it freezes and i have to pull the battery
-phone is sometimes not going to sleep mode, i have to restart it
Everything else is working perfectly, this is thousand times better then the Samsung bull****. Oh, my carrier is Telekom(Germany).
No radio/SIM with GT-7710 XCover 2 on CM11
The forum forces me to open a new thread, apologies.
I gave the Vanir Skomer 4.4.4.101714 nightly a try but my broadband (S7710XXAND2)/IMEI is gone after reboot. Big difference to most reports I've read is that once I return to stock ROM all is fine again. In other words: the SIM was not damaged. Also the chmod/chown and move-files-from-stock trick doesn't improve anything. No idea what else I should try. I'm currently back on stock Android.
This is what I've done:
- Use Odin 3.09 to apply 20140112_cwm-6.0.4.6_skomer_fixed.tar.md5
- Boot into CWM
- Update to CWM 6.0.4.7 via cwm_skomer_test2.zip
- Wipe/Factory + Dalvik reset
- Install vanir_skomer_4.4.4.101714.zip (also tried 20131231_cm_11.0_skomer-ota-eng.flx.zip)
- Install pa_gapps-modular-pico-4.4.4-20141019-signed.zip
- Wipe/Factory + Dalvik reset
+ Copied {efs,modemfs} from stock to vanir (removed vanir's folder contents before)
+ Fixed file perms to 666, folders to 777, owner to radio:system
I couldn't find TWRP for Skomer or a more recent clockwork recovery. Just mentioning this because I've read a post that mentioned recovery is responsible for setting radio related stuff.
Ideas?
Network connection doest work for me to. I like this rom too and like to be it get worked! (Y)
Never mind, fixed my radio issue. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56293409&postcount=37
vanir_skomer_4.4.4.101714
I got that one and currently it's syncing but I have no mobile networks. I'm from Finland and I'd like to know what data I should post to help fix it. (I could recompile and all if I get instructions)

Just wanted to confirm with my Vanir nightly of 101714, my camera app crashes too. No problems with radio or networking though.
Cant call, says my phone is currently airplane mode
hello, just installed the latest (vanir_skomer_4.4.4.102814) and now my phone can't find network and says that airplane mode is on when i try to call. Airplane mode button says it's off and kills the bt and wifi if i turn it on, aka goes to real airplane mode.
Fix for this would be more than welcome.

rtc clock not working properly
I cant change rtc clock time, I tried -w and -systohc, but nothing
I have 20141013 installed
---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:58 PM ----------
Dsp manager also not working. When I change sound compression it works, but at next song it sounds normal, like if it wasnt activated.
RTC can't be set directly on all newer Qualcomm devices.
DSP Manager most likely will be changed in CM. Anyway its DSP Manager bug and not ROMs itself. So if you want look through CM JIRA and if there no such bug report. You can report it.

Ok, I'll report that. I also noticed that recovery backups dont have rtc time. I did some research on the internet and I found something about newer qualcomm devices have recovery time kept in a file in /data/time. I could check this by reading the file time_log.1.
I did know this coz one day recovery bacckups were changed from 1970 to 2014, but with wrong date, so I think I would have to do a full wipe, format data and system and reinstall the rom, I think this could work. I also read someting in the changelog like rtc showing correct or something like this. Maybe same time is kept coz I dont do wipes while installing a new nightly. I really appreciate your work, I love your rom.
It is set to 2014 in kernel. That what Samsung made in KK opensourced kernel. And dont be surprised if it will be set to 2014 next year. Day, month isn't changed forcefully. So thats why you see such date in recovery. While in normal boot mode time_daemon starts and sets date and time. So wipe don't change anything. These RTC changes related to normal boot mode only. Particularly to time_daemon.
And yes, recoveries like Philz support setting correct date.
Ok, thanks
Is screenshot function working for you?
Sent from my A0001 using XDA Free mobile app
Dialer
First of all, thank you for a great ROM. The only problem I have, is when I am calling someone. The screen just goes black. Is there any trouble with the proximity sensor?
When I take the phone away from my ear the screen is supposed to light up right? Mine doesn't do that...
Thanks!

Hi, is screen mirroring working with CM11 nightlies?
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9506 mit Tapatalk
Hi!
I've been having an issue ever since I started using one of the first nightlies of this ROM: After a random time both my WIFI and phone signal icons turn orange and the proces Android OS starts draining my battery together with having no signal at all. Turning off WIFI at that point doesn't seem to work anymore but can be done by putting the phone in airplane modes. When I disable airplane modes and have my WIFI disabled I can browser through my phone network but Android OS still drains the battery. After I reboot everything is back to normal, as long as I leave my WIFI off.
- I've installed various nightlies and have had the same problem on all of them.
- I've done both a firmware update and a factory reset of my wireless router: Linksys E2000.
- I've both enabeld and disabled the Google Location reporting.
The problem still occurs and I can (with a random time) reproduce it. If anyone can help me debug or solve this problem that'd be great!
Assuming you have CWM in use as recovery, enter CWM. Do a format on /system from mounts menu. Then do a factory reset. Install latest nightly from SD and voila. That worked for me a while back.

Hi, I've installed the 20141106-NIGHTLY yesterday, everything was working great, I updated to the 20141107-NIGHTLY today and now I don't have notification sounds, vibration and light, most of the audio files I select under Notification Sound are detected as Unknown Ringtone, the battery notification light is not working too, I wiped and restored factor settings through recover and installed the 20141106-NIGHTLY but its still the same, changing the color of the light confirms that the notification light is still working but does not activate wen it should.
Nevermind, I cleaned all my setting and reconfigured, it solved the problem
Hi friends, how can we root this ROM?
Thanks
As other users in the thread about solks2 CM11, I am affected by thebrandom reboot thread. I thought it might help to let you know that those reboot often occur when using waze (while charging the phone in my car). Sorry to post here but I do not have the 10 required posts to reply in the right thread.

Hello,
I also have a bug when trying to use google now via bluetooth (stuck on a screen with "initializing" written). I tried several workarounds from the internet but without success. Some suggest that a2dp should be disabled but I didn't find an option to disable it... Anyone managed to make google now work with bluetooth?

支持你!
谢谢韩国的朋友
look guys
These solution is not mine i found it xD but i dont remember where sorry
-If wifi is mad with you
install "F320-Philz-touch_Cloudy" / Wipe dalvik cache then flash su-v2.40 (Do this step each time that the phone turns off ) maybe you will have to try this many times before it work
-If soft reboot when the screen is sleeping or when press power button
install "wake lock - PowerManager" set ~PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK then go to options (in the nav bar) and set autostart on boot you can turn off notifications too
note: when you turn off the screen useing the power button it turns on back so you have to wait for until it shuts
2nd note: i'm just learning English (sorry)
And what about the rom?
Is there some news?
the Rom's download link is not work
okay i've found a fix fall pretty much every issue present in the f320k build. it's ridiculous and makes no sense, but it works for me and after working this out i haven't encountered a single problem apart from the battery drainage (i can probably get maybe 3 hours of light usuage, but im using some battery calibration app which i've never heard of but is supposed to work wonders) and the render kernel flashing but bringing all the old bugs back.
so basically what i did was factory reset the phone to jellybean (4.2.2 11E to be exact) via flash tool, attempted to install the omni lollipop rom. it worked, but no wifi, constant soft reboot, and no access to sd card within the rom. so i wiped that and gave this rom a try. for some reason, if you install any lollipop rom (so far ive tried ressurection remix and omni) straight after flashing JB, and then wipe that and run this rom, wifi works, no soft/hot reboots, and access to the sd card is present. it works vice-versa as well! flashing this rom, followed by Omni just fixes all the bugs (although the other two roms i tried do not have access to sd-card which is a bummer because all of my music and files are saved there).
after getting CM12 to boot and run fine, i created a backup of everything in TWRP in case something went wrong, which did happen.
while setting the device up, getting some apps installed, something triggered the wifi and hot reboot issue again. i wasn't sure what it was but there's no way i'd be cool with having to wipe the phone to stock jelly bean and redo this entire method to get the wifi fixed again, so i booted recovery, hit restore backup, and ONLY selected Modem in the things to restore. booted back up and its literally fixed the issues again. im still unsure of what's causing the bugs, but at least i know how to fix it and it only takes a minute and no data is lost at all.
i hope this helps anyone looking to get this rom working for them!
EDIT
i just unplugged the phone to go out and the wi-fi almost immediately cut off and the phone hot rebooted, so i think it might have something to do with that.
just tried recovering the Modem again and it's not working while flashing off or on charge.
just figured out that if you turn off wi-fi before unplugging device from charge it doesn't make phone hot reboot when pressing the lock button
Promlem
I have a few problems:
1) The phone sometimes restarts itself, so I noticed a reboot after you connect your phone to the charger (Render Kernel 10)
2) Quick battery drain.
With WiFi seems to be no problems

Work great
This rom is stable. Work very great on my device. Haven't found any issue so far. Love it!!!:good::good::good:

Touch stops working.

Okay, so... I'm a noob at this. Apologizing up first if I somehow did something wrong or not properly.
Issue:
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5. About a year ago I managed to get root access and boot LineageOS on my device, and it was working just fine. 2 months ago I decided to try out resurrection remix oreo. It also worked fine... but then I decided to upgrade the rom... Instead of upgrading (by flashing the new build) I went into recovery (TWRP) did an advance wipe and wiped the entire system, data, cache etc... and just loaded the rom like new with Gapps and Magisk.
For some reason TWRP doesnt work well with Aroma Gapps... and I often like to customize what Gapps get installed. It took me a while to figure out how to make a gapps config file and where to put it.
So after booting the new os everything seemed to work fine. Except! Whenever someone called me, my touchscreen would not respond... I couldnt answer calls or even end them. I had to wait till the call ended so I could use the phone again. So I tried clearing the Phone app's data and see if that would help. (It didnt)
I decided to wipe my device again, do a factory reset. So I booted into recovery only to find my touch screen wasnt working again! I pushed the power button to turn off the screen and turn it on back again and my touch worked. (This was strange)...
So I went ahead and cleared everything again, this time I decided to downgrade and go back to LineageOS 14.1. and now..... it's worse.
The touchscreen goes on and off when it feels like it. It doesnt happen with just calls anymore.
The touchscreen would work but the navigation buttons (Recent apps and back button) seem to work.
and then there are times where the touchscreen would work but the navigation buttons wouldnt work.
sometimes both wont work.
I also get a bootloop issue.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 Powered by Android boot up screen usually loops for a good while and then youd get the Lineage os boot animation. Sometimes it comes on as normal.
I know you guys may need a logcat. So ive grabbed one. I'm not sure how to attach because I dont see any option to and apparently after 10 post, only then I can post links.
I also tried flashing a new Kernel but that didnt help...
Again I'm apologizing if i did anything wrong or improper. If you need anything else, I'll be willing to provide more.
Thank you!!!

nofile.io/f/qONXoDoewuX/open_gapps_log.txt
nofile.io/f/hodHOtCFaTH/open_gapps_debug_logs.tar.gz
nofile.io/f/35qUphmpxOZ/.gapps-config
EDIT: Ive noticed whenever my nav buttons dont work, the recent apps button is lit but very slightly, the back button doesnt light up at all.

I'm just going to suggest something...
Have you tried the following?
1) Go to Developer options...
2) Then the Drawing Section (or Rendering Section)...
3) Locate and Disable/Turn Off the "Hardware Overlays".
It looks like many Samsung Devices experience this issue (or similar) and is, unfortunately, misdiagnosed as a hardware issue (though it can be Hardware Related).
Sometimes, without any "rhyme to reason", the device can get a bit confused between the use of Hardware or Software settings and acts like its in a "Panic" like state bouncing between the two.
The above steps just manually tells the device to use GPU for all/any screen adjustments.
There's no guarantee that this will work but, I've seen it work for most individuals who has/have/had experienced the same/similar issue.
Good Luck!

Apparently it was already off... I tried turning it on. Will use it during the day and see what's up. Also I remember whilst the logcat was running. If I tapped the screen it would show something like "pause audio"... I'll grab some screenshots later.
And as for touching the navigation buttons. It shows Google input method anytime I touch the buttons. I'll grab some screenshots to show specifically. Have to head to work
Okay so if I touch the screen, log records the entry as
AudioService Stream Muted, Skip Playback.
Anytime I touch the navigation buttons it shows
GoogleInput onFinishInput(): Dummy InputConnection bound
GoogleInput onStartInput(): Dummy InputConnection bound

Your best bet is to post this within the following Q&A thread that's specific to the S5 and Variants.

Members there should be able to provide some better guidance than I can at this point.
