Sense 5 vs. Cyanogenmod 10.1 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had been using Cyanogenmod since my Nexus One and then Galaxy Nexus.
I just switched to HTC One because CM10.1 on GN is unbearably slow and lag. There are also random reboots and overheat issues.
I didn't think I would like Sense 5 since I was used to CM. I am now liking it only using it for 2 days.
Things I like about Sense 5:
- Group txt and mms without issues (make a huge different for me because I get a lot of group txt from iphone)
- Sync non-gmail email accounts without issues
- txt or email notifications on lockscreen
- power saver mode
Things to improve in Sense 5:
- single swipe for rich notifications
- cannot customize home screen, like grid size
- no notification widget bar
- not 4.2 yet
Anyone has any thoughts on this topic?

Chingy.. Nice job
I flashed yours (I try most ROM's) to see if you fixed any of the problems I am having with my 3.0 ROM and you did get much further than I did. I did find one or two that I am still wrestling with.
In yours:
1) Can not add the password to voice mail in Settings > Call
2) Voice mail is the phone number instead of *86. Probably related to 1
3) No MMS when WiFi active - Works fine with WiFi off
4) Camera will not save to phone storage (EMMC) - FC'd 2 times out of 5 tries
5) Looks like 6 bar only using first 4 but I can't confirm that
In mine:
1, 2, and 3 I am still having trouble with. Have not touched the 6 bar or Rosie settings
And in closing:
Hope this helps now back to mine.
And above all I would love to borrow the Rosie Settings if you don't mind.

So it's Sense 3.0? Sigh, 3.0 is useless to me until we get a 800x480 leak since I see distortion that nobody else sees I would love a 2.1 rom though!

Ram will free up once things settle. It got up to about 140 free when I checked a little while ago
Haven't found anything other than camera will not save picture to phone storage.
Just logged into the hub ,widgets,ringtones scenes etc...all downloaded installed.
The weather lockscreen from wdfowtys inc2 is the only one that almost shows 100 degree temps.
I like this one a lot ....oh did I say its fast
Just did kill all and refreshed mem upto 164 free megs
Not a bug but when using different skins the notification dropdown is difficult to see because everything is transparent. The default skin has a white background so no problems there.
Could we have a 4x4 app drawer mod?

Joining the Bionic Thread - need some input!

Hey everyone, I am picking up a bionic and am very excited to start development on this. I am coming from a thunderbolt and have also done work on the droid 2, droid charge, captivate, and motorola xoom. I will be working on a rom that will optimize motorola's user interface and one that will be as close to AOSP as I possibly can. Before getting started, I would like some user input as to what you all want to see changed, kept, fixed, etc...since I have had minimal time playing with one. I am shelling out $400 for one and am ready to make this phone the best it can be for all users.
thanks in advance for any input on this and can't wait to see what you all come up with!
Reserved for updates and progress reports
I'm not sure what types of things are reasonable to request, so take these suggestions with a grain of salt:
1. One touch widget 4G / 3G toggle
2. One touch widget for toggling preconfigured power configurations
3. Configurable one touch widget that kills all non-essential Verizon embedded background processes
4. Greatly improved camera software from another phone or a third party app
5. Many people seem to love single digit percentage increments for battery levels. (stock is 10% increments)

AOSP Camera app (running Liberty now, huge improvement).
Power control widget with 3g/4g. I have multiple paid versions of these and none work.
#3 above, except instead- remove bloat (easier)
CM7 ring lock screen option

It is recommended to try his rom first to see if you like it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219511
For bugs about 3.5.3.
Issue: When you press and hold the home button, the multi task will flash up and then exist.
Solution: Setting-> button -> desktop key -> choose none.
I have already flash back to beta 2, but this should be the way to solve the issue.
For tips about 3.5.3.
- on the music icon, press and hold, then swipe up. You will see a pop-up music control
- there is a battery saving mode in setting >battery. I think this have something to do with tune down cpu freqz to from 1.2 to 1Gz.

1. Uses material stolen from pengus77 without permission
2. Battery drain is higher than any other rom for the o2x
3. Our phone's low amount of available ram in android 4.0+ can't handle resource hungry miui any more. May be smooth at first but apps take a lot of time to open, compared to other roms, and multitasking can't be handled well(mostly due to low ram, again)
Those are the problems in descending order of importance, (and coupled with my lack of time) why you aren't seeing newer versions being released by me

Have you been on other Android devices?

I was wondering - what would the perfect mash up of ROM features be, if I combined the stock ROMs from the manufacturers of Android devices I have owned?
I liked the Sense launcher and the widgets on HTC Wildfire S, which was my first Android device. Also the alarm clock. It was nice to look at.
The HTC broke up contact numbers in pairs of two, as they should be in Denmark, with 8 digits in phone numbers. The extended reboot menu, with shutdown, reboot and fast boot was a nice feature.
I miss the reboot option natively on the Z.
On i9100 I *hated* TouchWiz and the colors! Also, the lack of notification LED was a huge problem for me.
The lack of to disable the preview of incoming texts, so they would light up screen and scroll through the notification bar, had me starting using Handcent SMS.
Now I use Handcent, because it also can customize notification colors in the status bar, and notification LED color.
They i9100 on 4.0.0 firmware broke up contact numbers in pairs of two, that was good, but it could not disable the preview of incoming texts, that was bad.
Later firmware updates gave the ability to disable text preview, but broke up contacts in sets of 3-3-2, making the number difficult to read.
Call quality was lousy because of the forced noice cancelling and the weak antenna.
All in all the i9100, being a high end device, had some serious flaws when I come to think about it.
I liked the extended sound control panel in the i9100, and I miss it on the Z.
From CM I miss fast toggles to toggle 2/3/4G.
I would love the stock ROM on the Z to have customizable notification LED in the message app, and privacy box like Handcent SMS.
Aqua Mail beats stock mail app by a mile.
Z have a very stable software and a low amount of wake locks. I really like that. However, the screen really drinks all the battery no time - or so it feels like.
Do you have similar thoughts to share?

Google seems to have screwed it up with this one...

5.0 was something I really looked forward to...once I got around to flashing it however, man it's taking a huge decrease in the performance department compared to 4.4.4. Here are some of the things I noticed:
1. Laggy UI overall - opening apps, loading, caching is all much slower now - not the animations, just the time lag before the animation/after animation.
2. Bad battery life - is it me or has the battery really taken a hit? Today I got out of the house at 8AM and by 3PM I get the 15% battery saver notification. With about 2.5 hrs of SOT. Before I used to get at least 3+.
3. Unnecessary animations - I do not understand the whole "logical part" of L's animations. They claim apps now "open from somewhere". All I'm seeing is that they slide up now. IMO, it was more logical before, the app used to extend diagonally FROM its icon itself. On top of that, the animations are more laggy too.
4. Colours/Icons - what is with the colour choices of teal, etc. in the backgrounds and all over the UI? Starting to look like Touchwiz. And, the triangle/square/circle are totally random choices of shapes...the arrow, home, etc. were more logical.
5. Google Apps - Google apps are ever-more confusing to use now with a plethora of headings under the swipe menus (i.e. Gmail, Inbox, Photos, etc.). More importantly, the font is now super small...the nice big font in KitKat was way nicer and had easy-to-understand menus. Chrome is way worse - tabs have become "apps" and the only way to switch between them is to access recent apps. No more new tab button, no more swipe between tabs, and it crashes like no tomorrow. Calendar is so-so..it's harder to delete events now.
Overall KitKat was way smoother, cleaner UI, very accessible, but only lacked a couple key features. Looks like Project Butter is gone. An update is fast needed.
The Good:
Dialer and Messenger apps are far better than the stock on KitKat (UI/usability-wise). I really like lock-screen notifications.
(1) Wat? No lag here. (stock, no root)
Won't comment about (2) and above (yet).

Please tell us your method of installing 5.0?
Sent from my Android 5.0 Nexus 5
1. Not laggy for me too. It works smooth. Did a clean install.
2. Battery life seems to be fine.. Did not see any improvements yet..but definitely not a deterioration..
3. This may be a personal preference. I actually like the animations.
4. Again personal preference. I love the color scheme of lollipop. Bright colors and white just works.
5. I agree there is a confusion with Email app redirecting to gmail and Inbox which manages Gmail..haha what a mess. But I can get used to it. Agnostic about the font size change. I hated the chrome tabs which showed up in multi tasking, but I just turned the feature off. Now I have all the swipe to switch tabs, swipe down to see tabs etc.
Even though I like Lollipop overall, I agree with several of your points:
Battery life is much worse than the first DP released months ago. That was amazing. Now, I still have a better battery life while actually using the phone, compared to KitKat, but the standby power consumption is worrying: I get a 5% drop by just leaving my phone in airplane mode for one night, which would barely take 1% on android 4.4...
The UI doesn't look laggy at all to me, but I must admit that some animations are pointless; others are pleasant though.
I like the UI of some of the new Gapps instead: gmail is really well made, especially in the tablet version, calendar is ok and the changes in the other ones (maps, keep, newsstand) didn't affect usability.
At first I didn't like chrome either, but after you get used to the new way to use it, it's not that bad. Anyway, you can disable the new tab view and revert to the classical UI whenever you want
Sent from my Nexus 5
Lags what?? Come on. Mine is running butter smooth like never before. Much much fluid and consistent than Kitkat 4.4.4. And stop criticizing UI based on colors and all. These are subjective elements and opinions always vary greatly from person to person. Most of the people are liking this new UI. It does have a character and feel of liveliness unlike any previous android UI.
PS: And for once in a lifetime, do checkout settings under Chrome.
Odd
Got no lag issues
Battery is better for me
3 ~ 5 are taste choices not issues, i love the new ui and animation
Maybe its time to see if any oem offer better looks to your taste
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
People if you read all his comments, all items are so subjective. Colors can look ugly to you but not to everyone. Battery would be because of how you use it. Gapps, are made not your sake and fonts that are small for your is enough for someone. Again, post issues that are show stopper.
@OP: Damn right they have. The OTA updates have stopped as well. I think the rest of us (99%) should be receiving Android 5.0.1 or something next month. Till then... no updates.
In chrome you can change the tab style under settings
I sideloaded the OTA and my phone was laggy and had a few force closes so I flashed the factory image and it's fine. Fast, smooth and works.
This is the price you pay for being an early adopter. It has happened before on nexus devices in the past. It's going to take them at least one or even two more updates to polish it.
Concerning chrome tabs, go to settings in chrome and turn off "merge tabs and apps".
You can turn off system animations from developer options in settings, or make them a bit faster by setting the value to .5x
As for unnecessary apps, you can disable the apps you don't want to see, or if you're rooted, you can delete them for good.
I want to say that after week od testing Lollipop (AOSP version with Hybrid Kernel) I went back to Omni ROM based on KitKat. Why? Because for me Lollipop is not as smooth as KitKat. I mean especially animations that are often laggy. Check out for example Play Store. Search any app with huge description, click "More informations" and then click "x" button to close whole description. For me this animation was very laggy. It's only example but I just felt worse smoothness and responsive in compare to KitKat. Even recent apps panel opens slower than KitKats one. It should not supposed to be so. I feel on KitKat 100% comfortable in daily use, not on Lollipop. I like new look and features but KitKat is faster.
And I will not change my mind, I'm not a noob and I can see the difference. I will wait month or two for custom ROMs and I will check out Lollipop again.

I've been on the nexus line for 4 generations, but no one can answer your question with 100% certainty. It might take a x.x.1 or even x.x.2 update to iron things out.
I would say this transition is even bigger than gingerbread 2.3 -> 4.0 ICS was.
Choppy animations, FC's and inconsistencies in apps are normal at this stage. Apps will update in time. And i mean all apps in general, not just GApps.
1. No lag here.
2. Getting 4 hours + SoT, even on Developer Preview I was getting nearly 5.
3. Everything looks better in slow-mo.
4. Touchwiz is so much more random. Colors everywhere, heavy theming, where as Google has a constant flow. Maybe they just got tired if everything being black(might've been nice in the N6)
5. I always hated the Photos thing, but getting use to it quickly. I can see where Google is trying to go.
The font is beautiful to me. I love it.
Chrome, you can change it from recent apps back to normal in Chrome settings(I don't know if you read the instructions for that)
Calendar looks beautiful, but haven't used it yet.
Now. Remember that Lollipop was JUST released, therefore only the start of things to come. KitKat had many improvements done to it to become what it was.

Ohno, I meant the animations. You see it more in slow-mo. I'm not saying put your phone animations like 2x's slower.
In an Android Police post, they made GIFS of the animations. To the eye it looks like a slide, but in thebGIFS it was beautiful.
No lag here.
Battery is improved in my case ( on avg-extreme usage).
But apps takes longer time to install. But I know its due to the ART , but performance wise its a clear winner.
No force closes even on extreme multitasking.
My device is rooted just to install ViperFx everything else is completely stock.

Yes, I noticed this since first preview came out. I thought it would be fixed in final factory image, but it didn't.
I installed Lollipop with full wipe option (-w) and still laggy everywhere(Drawer, multi-tasking, even opening setting).
Third party apps which have services running in background are only Facebook Messenger and Yahoo!Weather, tried removing them but no help.
I am so jealous of you guys who didn't encounter this issue :crying:
BTW, I also noticed taking some HDR+ shots makes system holding more memory (and never release them).
