Serious issues with my i9506 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I have few serious issues with my i9506 mobile that i really would be glad if you put some time into helping me solve them.
I'm using CM11-201501250=NIGHTLY-ks01lte, Android version 4.4.4
Mobile freezes a lot, almost 4+ times a day. nothing responses and i have to reboot it to use it again.
Video recording always have a bad sound quality.
A lot of apps crashes and launchers too.
Over heating (but not much i can do about that i think)
I been using CM11 for long time and i am gonna try to upgrade to CM12 now. all i want is a running CM version with exposed framework.
So please help me fix these issues

Take a look: HERE. Select the one you prefer: Kit Kat (more stable) or Lollipop.

already installed the L version. but phone stuck so far doesn't pass the Samsung screen (was stuck on recovery before)
so i re-installed Philz Touch recovery and wiped the cache... (btw it asked me to root the phone again before existing recovery)
so phone still stuck... what now

Okay i used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2597058
and now it's working and downloading apps backup via titanium backup... will check the issues again and update u guys.
Thanks a lot for the help

Okay phone got stuck on samsung logo again... so now i redo it... and gonna use this kernel https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/de...Lollipop/3.6.3/arter97-kernel-i9506-3.6.3.zip

Villain Rom 3.0

Ive install Villain Rom 3.0 with the new android 2.3.5 its working great. For some reason it did not have root so i flashed via odin speedmod kernel KI-T40. and with that i got root and its working great so far.
im just waiting know for the tweaks and a good blue theme for it.
I hope this helps .
If i help you just hit the thank meter!
Wrong Section its not a question .

It does have root it just didn't have superuser, downloading superuser from market would of solved root issues.

Should I stay on 2.5? or should I update?
I found that people says that version 2.3.5 has better sound quality and battery drain is gone.
is is true ?
thank you in advance for you assistance.
Been using V3 for a week now, so far it been great. Playing with lots of apps from the market, no fc till now and battery is decent. Try it.

Is it that different to stock 2.3.5 though? I'm running 2.3.5, tried VR3.0 and can't see any differences at all. The guys at VR don't seem able to say what benefits it has over stock, other than some VR tweaks that aren't of use to me.

Urm one major difference stock is odexed, VR is deodexed. Allows themes and mods which for most is a big plus.

I have been using Villian 3 for several months and I love it!
Only issues that I know:
Device Encryption does not work and blocks the phone (you have to come back to original stock rom to be usable, the phone cannot boot)
Touchdown app does not sync calendar (but email works so I'm fine with it)
But battery life is awesome compared to stock one, is very fast and I you like TW like I do is great cause you will get TW experience with better battery and faster

Yes, device encryption is unfortunate...
I'd not turn it down if it worked... I decided to wait until ICS, and then see if the inbuilt stuff there works. If not, I'll have to figure it out.
But at the end of the day, I wouldn't release the rom like that, for one reason. Encryption is only good if you are using a secure rom. While VR is in many respects more secure than most ROMs due to using non public platform keys, it still permits root access.
Since exchange encryption is usually enforced by your IT admin, I don't think people should be using this ROM for work purposes to connect in, given it is rooted...
With root, you can just dump the data off the running system

My Defy

Hi all,
my defy after some attempts is quite perfect :highfive:
I've tried different rom and configuration then I've solved my problems of Battery and fluidity with this step.
Factory Reset
wipe
Flash Rom (Android 4.1.2 Rom: 10-20130918 Get it there (Quarx))
Flash Gapps (Minimal)
wipe
Reboot
Battery Calibration when charged 100%
Nova Launcher
Then i've falled in love with my phone
​
I hope it will help someone
Good for you. But you did not mention the OS since there are many flavours of 4.1.2 out there. You also did not root it? sorry don't want to be a **** about it, but you are missing some points here.
Also, there is no need to - ever - calibrate battery. After 5 full load cycles it will always be calibrated.

It's stable but sluggish. I tried Quarx' 10.2 and SlimBean (JB4.3 based) before and I think they were more responsive.
Usb tethering and wifi hotspot dont work in any version so Im using Easytether and Wifi Tether Tom.

What is a Good Rom for this phone.

What is a good rom to run on this phone? I have tried a few and can't seem to find anything that works with out issue. I tried the latest SlimRom which I liked but It doesn't allow me root access. So apps like titanium backup don't work I've tried I think its OEO or something of that nature and it was ok and I don't care for CM11.
I am using the stock rom that came with the phone I think that is ICS

I have never found a more functional rom than mhous33 dst stock or the avistralia deodexed mod.
All the cm, pacman, aokp...... never work FOR ME in all the capacities of stock.
About TiBu, I have always found issues with it.
I use recovery advanced restore to move apps.
You can move your stock data to both the dst & avistralia roms.

Did you try flashing supersu in twrp to get root access? Also, the most recent builds of CM11 have been running great for me with no issues and better performance than stock and CM10.2 for me. It's worth a try...

They do have use to you because you would find the info you're looking for, if you take the time to read them.
I tried out SlimKat and it seemed ok but i really don't like how little they made the fonts and the screens in it. Some of us older people need bigger. I also had to flash the SU binary update as its not added to it. I tried out the beta 2 edition. After my data resets I plan on trying the DST one that was also suggested. Sometimes not having home internet sucks.

Problem with wifi on d802 with official cyanogenmod 13

Hi guys im new on XDA...Actually I follow xda from time optimus one but I never registered on this fantastic forum so now it is almost 6 years that i use xda. OK go back to my problem .... After a clean installation of the CM13 on my g2 all works fine but there is only one problem with the wifi...Wifi connects and disconnects without any reason and it is annoying someone can help me or have a fix about this. I apologize if I have not posted in the official thrade rom (mean on the official post of CM13 ) but xda limits the possibility to post on developer post until they reach at least 10 posts . Best regards and thanks in advance
Hi, i think you are experiencing that problem, becouse not everything is fixed and stable since this is a rom in a alpha stage, and yes i have that problem too on the 13/12/2015 nigthly installation. I recommend using cm 12.1 for daily use until cm 13 gets more stable.
Bests regards! I hope i could help!
When I using cyanegonmod 12.1, I have a obtaining ip adress bug. i can't solve this now I'm using cloudyg2 v3.3 (I'm sorry for my english)
So never mind right now I stay with this little problem untill a new fix, at least I'm not the only one with this problem... By the way thanks all for the help

Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Video Camera always crashes

I recently decided to root this device with the help of my friend. He used Resurrection remix as the custom ROM and is now Android 7.1.2. Everything was fine until I discovered my video camera isn't working at all. Camera on the other hand works as it's supposed to. Facebook messenger's video call crashes, video recording crashes, - everything related to video recording crashes. I tried to download camera apps on play store, same results. I tried clearing data on camera, restarting device, or turning off device doesn't help either. What could the problem possibly be? I need answers! Thank you!
