I currently have cm10.1 2nd nightly build. I'm currently using it as a daily driver so I will be experiencing most peoples issues.
I will be reporting issues,observations and possible workarounds on my device in the hopes that someone might find it useful. I'll update the post whenever I run into something useful.
PS: I'm pretty new to android so pardon my ignorance sometimes.
Camera Hangs for ~10 secs when flash is enabled
Do not use touch focus when capturing an image.
Fixed in latest nightly
Very slow charging
Power off phone, plug the charger and power on the phone
Exessive Battery Drain
This things a least worked for me.
* disable lock screen weather widget
* disable google backup(i saw this using most of my juice when i first flashed the rom), Under settings->backup/reset uncheck "backup my data" Seems to have been fixed in the latest nightly
* disable location services(at least when not in use, i also observed this one taking up a lot of juice). settings->location access -> turn off access to my location.
// * Wifi: policy is defaulted to "Keep wifi on during sleep", could be the reason why battery steadily declines even during sleep. (may set it to never depending on your needs)
Unable to install APK files
Using filemanager. Move your apk files to /data/media. Install apk from there. OR you can just adb install file.apk
Another reported fix is to change permissions for storage
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /
chmod 755 /mnt/shell
chmod 555 /storage
here's full explanation of the fix with a way to make the setting stick. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40507522&postcount=506

Wifi Issues
A few users reported issues with wifi.
- Users reported mac address change on cm10.1 so if you have mac filtering set up. Update your current wifi policy.
- Users also reported not being able to connect to wifi with WEP(open) encryption. Try changing it to something else if you have access to the router.
That's it for now. If you have things to share, please don't hesitate to post.
Thanks!
Latest nightly has camera fixed
good initiative but this could do better in Android Development section maybe?

Thanks, don't really care that much about changing section. It can be wherever the mods may want it to be
Anyway,
Updated op to reflect the ff:
latest nightly reportedly fixed the camera issue
Found out that wifi "keep wifi on during sleep" is set to "always". Depending on your needs you may want to turn it off.

no, dev sections are for development only, not for discussion so it's right in here
Added:
New nightly 18 and up cannot install apk files:
Workaround: To install apk files move them first to /data/media. Install apk from there.
Found this out just now. Hope this helps.

I thought dev sections were for development and feedback on those developments. Solutions for temporary problems caused by nightly bugs are useful for users affected by them and might be useful for the developers trying to solve them.

Thou art mistaken, my day brained fellow. Mine humblest person is no peacemaker. By my troth, I simply be cunning enough to read about what I know not.
There seems to be another workaround for the slow charging problem. At least it works on my device. Steps as follows:
_ Turn off wifi/3G/GPS
_ Turn off screen
_ Plug in charger
_ Check if the charging is AC. If USB, unplug charger and try again
_ Enjoy if it's AC, optionally turn on the connections you need.
It works like 8/10 times, but heh, still better than restarting the phone.

I dunno man, if it works 8/10, I'd rather just plug-charger->power->reboot. So much easier.
for those with problem connecting to wifi please check if their mac address changed.

Also the latest nightly *20 seems to have fixed sync draining most of my battery juice.
Guys, install Trickster MOD from Play Store, switch to the last page and check the core usage. Maybe it will help in core usage in games and benchmarks. Sorry for my English.
Wysłane z LG 4X HD
I tried the nightly from 20 April 2013. Although I like many things about it the battery drain was too much. I will stick with the stock V20 until we get daily builds. Also I kinda like the lighter colors of the LG Optimus skin.
Things I encountered: Battery drain, music player Apollo feels unfinished, Wifi not always connecting.
Use Uninstall Master to get rid of bloat ware.
Not works the Statistics battery ?
And when data is on only see a R letter ( not H+ , 3g.... )

PLEASE DO NOT POLLUTE THE DEV THREAD
Ok so we all know that all questions belong in the Q+A section right?... And bug reports, logcats and any useful additional information belongs in the Development thread... A developer needs to be able to read his/her thread to find out the real bugs and faults in the latest build without sifting through people telling us about their inability to flash a rom.. especially before they've even bothered to search the thread, forums or even Google!
Here you can talk about what ever you want to.. ask questions about anything Cyanogen related!
Another way you can help yourself and the developer is to read this quote from the Cyanogenmod team (20 Feb 2013):
"Some folks have seemingly forgotten (or were never fully aware) what nightly builds are for.
Nightlies are not released as an end product.
What does this mean? It means they are built, automatically and periodically, with no human intervention and no audience in mind whatsoever. They are not verified before being published, and their principal purpose is to compile code and see if it builds on a per device basis. Build failed? That’s a positive result. Build completed? That’s a positive result.
What’s happening is we are getting JIRA reports, tweets, messages, pm’s, emails, you name it, complaining about failed builds or ‘bugs’ on nightlies; on widespread (popular or all devices) problems, we’re downright overrun with complaints. Quite frankly, we close them, delete them or otherwise ignore them. But even those actions divert our attention and time. There is a better way.
Let’s be honest, if we didn’t want you to use nightlies, we would just stop making them public. And truth be told, you guys flashing them and keeping track of issues does have an upside, but only if it’s done in a constructive manner.
How you can help:
# If you have a bug that can be reproduced, flash the most recent M-series or stable build, reproduce it and open a JIRA ticket with a log.
# Flash a recent nightly and see if you can recreate it. Post your result as a comment to the issue created in the step above.
# Wait. We make an active effort to engage folks and assign out JIRA tickets. We don’t need updates on this for every nightly; and we don’t need “me too” comments, as long as the original ticket has all the requested information. If its not fixed in the next M-release or stable, add another comment to your issue saying so".

Is it me or its normal for current nightly version to be unable to pull down the status bar at all when in any full screen games/app? I try swiping from top no matter how i tried nothing works.
Beside this, everything else seems great, even much better battery improvement compare to stock.
Just want to check if it is anything i am missing out.

I'm pretty sure that has always been the way when playing full screen games/apps. I noticed that when watching 'TVCatchup' in full screen.
But because we have 2GB of RAM if you pause the game then press the home button, most games will stay running in the memory so that you can check notifications and even run more apps and still be able to resume back to the game.
Silly question but I'm not sure of the answer, but are we meant to have photosphere with this camera?
I have the latest nightly but my camera doesn't have the option :S

Lost all my internal storage content
Hi guys, I recently installed the latest CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightly for my i9305;
I used the TWRP recover, did a factory reset first, cleared cache and dalvik cache, installed the rom, and suddenly all of my data has been lost but it appears as "System Data" in the app "DiskUsage" (I used this to see where my storage was being used), please see the attached screenshot.
Where would this content have possibly been moved to? I'm talking about the folders like DCIM, Downloads, etc

Sure it isn't just in the "0" folder in the sdcard folder? Also, I hate to be that guy but TWRP isn't supported by the CyanogenMod team.
Is this an external SD card? If so the problem is likely that your card was formatted as exFAT prior to installing CyanogenMod. exFAT isn't an open filesystem, and CyanogenMod are not licensed to redistribute the filesystem, so it can't read it.

It is the internal storage, and by the "0" folder do you mean /storage/emulated/0/ ? It doesn't appear to be in there either. Yea I used to use CWM Recovery but I thought I'd give TWRP a try.

Another question,
I have the iBolt Galaxy s3 car dock; a lot of the kernels I've tried don't detect the dock, the same is true for the included kernel with CM 10.1 when I flashed it. I used to use Perseus kernel with RipperROM, when I flashed it with the new CM 10.1 it wouldn't even boot, I had to go into recovery and reflash the CM 10.1 ROM over the top to get the CM kernel again; are there any known compatible kernels I can use that will have support for my car dock? Cheers, Kane.
No signal bar on status bar
Hi.
This is my first foray into ROM flashing and it was a hell of a lot simpler than I thought it would be (the horror stories on here almost put me off ).
It really is a lovely ROM. Smooth and clean.
I'm working from the 17/03/13 Nightly and the only real problems I have are
Sometimes I get Unfortunately,the process com.android.phone has stopped working on my screen and the data cuts out. Not a huge issue as I just go to quick settings, turn the data off and back on again and its back working fine.
I have lost the mobile signal bar from the status bar at the top of the screen. I've got the time, battery, Wi-fi, alarm and sound icons. Just not the carrier signal bars. I've tried rebooting the phone but its still not there. Again not a huge deal breaker as I'm still getting a signal (I can still make calls, texts, mobile data etc). I'm just not seeing the icon on my status bar.
I notice that the battery light pulse length and speed is not working. Always default to custom, only can choose the color.
Notification light is working fine though.

Yeah noticed this too. I like it flashing green whilst charging, so I can use yellow for exchange email. But can't do it when green won't flash for charging.
Also, I know it's a long shot, but I've heard mixed reports of MHL for the i9300 version. Is there any chance if it for this version? I LOVE Cyanogen Mod, but MHL/TV out is a function I use a bit.
I see a need for a discussion thread that deals with Ubuntu Touch (preferably on Nexus 4) as a daily driver. There are several threads discussing multi boot, restoring Android etcetera etcetera. This thread is for people who want to discuss the day-to-day usage of Ubuntu Touch as their main phone. This shoud be the perfect place to post info about new as well as know issues, strengths, shortcomings, new apps - simply things to help each other out and share tips, tricks, workarounds and more to improve the user experience.
To start out, I would like to know if anybody has a workable solution for adding a foreign keyboard layout, in my case Swedish. I have already tried the suggested steps on the Touch/ReleaseNotes page but had no luck so far with "sv" as the utf-8 code. I still have the original en_US layout.
I heard that it had terrible battery life. Of course the lack of apps (whatsapp for me) is a dealbreaker. OMGUbuntu has a nice article about why UT isnt a good daily driver.

Many of the things stated in the article you mention are correct, but I think battery life should not be the dealbreaker. The drain for me has ranged between 3% and all the way up to 8-9% per hour. It is nowhere near as good as the Nexus 4 with Android, but then again it is not yet fully optimized. For me the daliy driver experience should be mostly improved by working bluetooth, Swedish keyboard, a decent e-mail client and some kind of calendar sync with Google. I hope that Canonical focuses on fixing the basic stuff first and foremost. More apps and settings options will come eventually.
Headset issues
Bluetooth is still not working, but I am also having problems using a wired headset for phone calls. It "sort of" works, but the person at the other end complains about choppy sound. The headset is fine when I listen to music etc.
Anyone sharing this experience?

I have been following that thread for a while, but I found it was turning more into a discussion about ROM versions, different kernels, install problems, the upcoming 14.04 release and things that seem more aimed at developers. It is getting increasingly difficult to find information about using the current "stable" build v1.0 (r100), which I guess will be updated OTA in the coming weeks and months. I know UT is not aimed at the common user just yet, but I want a thread for us adventurous users that want an alternative to Android on our Nexus phones.
Photos
Is it just me, or do photos on the Nexus 4 taken with Ubuntu Touch look considerably better than its Android counterparts?
Some interesting facts about pictures taken under similar conditions outdoors:
Ubuntu Touch
Image size: 3264x1836
Resolution: 72 dpi
Bit depth: 24
Size: 1.49 MB
Android:
Image size: 3264x2448
Resolution: 72 dpi
Bit depth: 24
Size: 1.46 MB
Despite more pixels, the Android image has much more noise and when enlarging it looks really blurry, while the UT image still looks nice and sharp. I thought the Nexus 4 camera was crap, but now I actually find it pretty useful, I like!
Upgrade
Has anyone tried upgrading from saucy to trusty via:
Code:

Anyone has a problem with OTA? My is forever on checking for updates
Hello Boys and Girls,
Everyone at XDA loves AOSP based projects. However AOSP is designed only for the Nexus devices. For most other devices, a significant ammount of extra code needs to be added for them to run properly. For Qualcomm devices, most of this extra code is supplied by the Code Aurora Forums. Here you can find a variant of AOSP that is not only designed specifically for Qualcomm based devices, but it also includes various tricks and enhancements.
So today I'm introducing a little project I've been cooking up for myself, which might also be interesting for other Xperia SP users.
It's called recaf - adding the CAF optimizations back into your AOSP rom.
This is now based on Android 4.4 KitKat. On the surface, it looks almost exactly like pure AOSP as provided by Google. You wouldn't know just by looking at it, but under the surface there are lots of changes to dalvik, the frameworks and the hardware drivers to massively improve battery life.
However, pure AOSP sometimes feels a little bit featureless compared to advanced roms such as CyanogenMod, so I have included a few basic tweaks that I feel make life easier when using an AOSP-like rom:
CyanogenMod camera app - because AOSP camera app is rubbish
CyanogenMod cLock widget - because it's actually pretty nice
Integrated Superuser - it's right there in the settings menu!
exFAT and NTFS - needed for larger SDCards
Multicoloured notification lights - AOSP gives us white lights only
Quick settings - easily accessible by swiping down the right side of the status bar
Advanced reboot - Always available in the power menu
ADB and SU security - root access is disabled by default
So without further delay, here is your download link:
recaf-4.K1-20131212-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131207-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131202-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131129-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131127-huashan.zip
I assume you will also want to install GAPPS, the version I recommend is the FULL version created by the Paranoid Android team from THIS THREAD.
For your first install you will need to flash the boot.img from inside the zip - SELinux changes for Android 4.4 will cause the zip to fail on other recoveries.
If you want to chat about recaf, join the Freenode IRC chat room #recaf.
recaf-4.J3-20131110-huashan.zip
recaf-4.J3-20131113-huashan.zip
pa_gapps-full-4.3-GH-20131112.zip
Known Major Bugs
Location services are currently broken for certain apps. fixed in 4.K1.
GSM data sometimes (very rarely) randomly disconnects until reboot - I need help to determine what causes this. If you can reliably reproduce this, let me know.
Android RunTime (ART) will fail at boot time fixed.
Known Minor Bugs
WiFi does not connect to WPA secured networks. WPA2 security works as expected.
For Superuser to work you need to change ADB access to apps and adb (in developer settings)
Language does not change in some parts of Android, most notably the Settings app. Most other apps work fine and I didn't touch the language code, so this is a CAF bug I will need to fix.
Custom notification colours for missed calls and voice mail don't work
LED on charging sometimes gets stuck when disconnected until reboot.
These are features, not bugs
Facebook sync cannot be activated.
Quick Settings poll
I created a poll about Quick Settings (discuss it there)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550027

One question though, did you manage to fix the "Phone" app battery drain issue?
Ahh yes the setup wizard will crash due to the above bug. You can skip it by pressing the four corners of the screen, start top left then go clockwise.

What are you trying to user Superuser for? I tested remounting /system and adding a file with Root explorer and it worked fine

@adfad666 thank you so much for sharing this rom! I have decided to switch to this one as my daily driver, pure stock 4.3 jellybean just the way i like it battery life is significantly better than cm10.2 and lag is non existent. Looking forward to future updates/bug fixes and of course AOSP kitkat roms!
Bug report: The notification light doesnt seem to work when charging via usb but works for notifications. Also, even though ive changed the notification lights to custom color values it still blinks white
ive attached a logcat below hope it helps.
Going to test this out as I'm currently running PAC and my battery ran out in 6 hours with 1 hour tops screen time. Hope this is better like the previous comment stated. Will post a small review afterwards.
Ok first off: battery life seems to be A LOT better than CM10.2/PAC.
Doesn't have SU installed by default, so I had to flash it.
Seems to be smoother than PAC. Might be placebo effect though.
1 question as well. Is there a way to enable facebook sync? I did it on CM10.* with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064859, but the CM10.2 apk doesn't work with AOSP

I noticed it works if you change the default notification colour, so I must have missed some part about the custom colours for apps.

Super user is for sure installed, but I think you need to enable developer settings for it to work. It's the exact same code as for CyanogenMod ( I didn't even fork it I just link to their projects) and I think super user is hidden and disabled there until developer mode is enabled. I'll add the code like CM has to hide it unless developer mode is enabled.

Unfortunately I encountered the same issue on this ROM too, I'll re-flash and provide a log tomorrow.
undoubtedly the best work so far
the ram and the battery is what most pleased in this rom
but heating in many aspect
I did return to the stock expecting some solution
or next actulizacion
SuperUser is working fine for me .
-I've some force closes in Drive app; but i disabled this app so the force closes are gone.
-I suffer a reboot when i start the camera for first time -> The screen turns purple and like "melted" and after that turns off. And later turns on again (reboot). Note: i've this bug in CM10.1 and CM10.2 when i was playing HD videos.

WiFi Drain Battery
Hi, im usin the Nightly 10132014, when Turrn on the wifi, drain a lot of battery, this fixed on the new Nightly?
boost p970
for the ones that do not have the same speed like before, there are some things, everybody should consider:
1. go into recovery and delete "dalvik cache", "cache" and "battery stats" from time to time.
2. use fstrim
3. delete cache under ->settings->storage
4. delete all temorary apps -> press and hold home ->than delete all the running apps
5. set animation(s) at 0.5x
now you should feel a speed improvement.

Well, it seems that is not a priority for the devs, but they will do it (I believe on it)
A note for them:
You are making a fantastic job with your ROM for our Black, but as for usability a few notes.
- FM radio (no chance, that's acceptable, for me )
- GPS (come on, we had nice GPS with some JellyBean ROM's, Mackay ROM for ex. Thats indispensable for most users, and maybe not hard to fix as other things).
- Bluetooth (you have almost made the job, but bluetooth streaming has still problems, the music doesn't play flawless, impossible to listen a music).
For me, there are 2 things that keeping me out of this ROM (GPS and Bluetooth). But I'll keep trying every week.
Thanks, and i hope this could be helpfull for everyone.
black screen issue
After I install the firmware(2014-10-26) on the phone, run the phone, everything seems fine. But after when the screen is locked, I cannot unlock it , hardware button backlights is on, but there is no picture on the screen. I flash back the nightly 2014-4-13, everythings is working normally. so I confirm that' not the hardware problem .

changelogs and daily builds
I wanted to know the differences between daily builds but can't read changelogs... i'm on windows...
Is there a difference between daily builds or are they automatically created...
Should i apply updates daily?
And how can i read changelogs on windows?
Why after so much development is still in nightly and not in beta or stable form???
wow
Installed today, wow!!!
I got back my Optimus Black from the drawer and it came back to life.
I don't care if there are some minor bugs/flaws/problems...

GPS has always been causing problems on the p970. It was crap on stock and custom roms so don't get your hopes up on that one. I don't think that they will bother to try and make it work.

Oh.. Thanks. Then i keep on waiting for another OB like phone. I can't go back to ICS.. So far none of the companies made a similar phone. They either make giant phones or ugly phones ...etc. Z3 compact was a thrill when i first read about it. Amazing phone but it has a very serious problem. It can't be rooted unless bootloader unlocked. With cause phone to lose very important features....
Hello,
What is the minimum TWRP or CWM version to install to be able to flash this ROM?

Camera problem
It is the best ROM I have try for my P970 so far, everything work, except for the camera.
When I take a picture, the backgroud of the camera stay stock with the last picture I take. To be able to take another one, I need to close and open again the app.
Also, when I try to record, all my video have the extension .MP4.TMP and I'm unable to read it.
I try Google Camera and I got the same picture problem.
I use the nameless version : 4.4.4-20141215-p970

From settings novathorn
I am having a weird bug in ABBamp.
It works just fine (and great btw), but when I come back to my home screen it is disabled and my volume level go down. If I go back to the app, turn the screen off or into any other app, it enables again and my volume is restored.
This bug happens in:
Next Launcher (my daily driver) - Through all the app
Google Now Launcher - Only on home screen. As soon as I open the menu the volume goes back.
On Trebuchet, GO launcher, ADW Launcher, Turbo Launcher - No problems at all
2G network changes in 3G automatically
Normaly my phone works with 2G-network.
I set this up: --> system --> Mobile network --> networktype --> I chooce for 2G.
However the phone/rom itself changes this regulary in 3G.
Can someone tell me how I can make sure that the setting stays at 2G ??
I use PAC-rom now for one day - fine rom !
Before I use the rom Roni-v3 and there this didn't happen.
but various tweaks that are in the int.d are recommended to use them? ... And if so, which ones? ... Thanks for your attention.
born this section, but is not supported by anyone ...?
No sound in .dev releases
Hey. So I have a question:
With the .dev releases (mainly 9-11-2014) i haven't got sound - I cannot play music, use phone app or anything related to the audio. Wiping cache & dalvik didn't help. What can I do to restore music?

If you update from a release before November, you need perform a clean install. If no you can lost all sound and of course call also have a slow boot.

Thank you! I did fix it with what you said now everything works for me at least great rom
The phone, however, in the last two versions have quite considerable delays, when changing the state of the connection, ie, when switching between WiFi and data connection, and on the contrary, but only when changing the type of connection. Before I did not notice this problem.
@grinder777
use this theme: "Infamous CM11 Theme Free" and you have a wounderful black dialer .
(sorry i can´t post a direct link )
Greetings K.
Edit: sorry this theme isn't compatible with lower dpi devices like our S3 mini. It's better to use an other theme.
Thats "normal" in custom roms, you need to set in 2G again after a reboot.
Thnks,
I've tried some different basebands: I8190_modem_ANF3, GT-I8190_modem.bin-XXANR6.zip and I8190XXANI4. Now I am on I8190XXANI4. All without any progress in the stabitlity of the setting 2G. So I think I have to accept it.
I use the rom-version of 9 nov.
There is one small thing. When I open the app 'PacPerformance', I can't close it. I have to use the kill-app-button. This however doesn't infect the working of the app.
Another strange thing I noticed: The CPU setting you can change in the settings-menu AND in the app: PAC-Performance. Why on 2 places?
Thanks for your effort for this very nice rom.

That happens with the last version of PACPerformance maybe is feature? really dont know why cant close the app but you can kill the app with the back button or in recents.
The option in menu come from cm sources, PACPerformance is an app, but the next release will be available only by the app, build in option is disabled now
