Weird Bugs

Ive installed the latest cyanogen mod rom and i have been using it for a while. There are a few bugs i have noticed through my use of the phone and they are kinda getting annoying.
First of all i have noticed randomly while i am listening to music the music app that came with cyanogen will freeze up and then it will start again but after it does that there is no sound. And when i force close the application, i use the controls on the side of the phone to change the volume and it will only change the media volume not the ringer volume. to fix this when it happens i have been having to restart the phone and go on from there.
Another bug i have been noticing is when i turn the phone to vibrate mode using the controls on the left of the phone when i recieve a text i do not get a notification. I would excpect that it would vibrate as well.
Another one is that when i am listening to music and i recieve a text it will turn off the sound similar to the first bug i talked about. It says it is still playing but there is no sound coming from it. To fix it i have been having to restart the phone.
To listen to my music with my earphones i have an adapter and some times when i am using that the phone will go into a reboot loop until i take out the adapter and then once the phone is back up plug the adapter back in.
These are all quite annoying and i would like to see if you guys have any input on the matter. Thank you

I don't think that any of these are platform bugs, but rather are cyanogen bugs. I suggest you post bug reports to cyanogen's bug tracker.

Well i thought about that as well but i looked at the rules for the bug tracker and i am currently in the process of making more accurate bug reports for the bug tracker. I came here to see if i could get any quick fixes or to ask if these are common things or i may just have to format my phone and reinstall cyanogen. So yeah i hope i can get some feedback from other users. I may just have to format as i said but i hope that there could be something else i could do. dont want to just go to all that trouble to not get it fixed.
edit: I looked further into the bug tracker for cyanogen and i dont have the required materials to make a report as i dont have a log of the issue. its just something that tends to happen.

Its happening alot today and well yeah its getting really bad, i dont think there is anything wrong with my phone. So i think i am just going to format and reinstall a new rom. idk if i will stay cyanogen or not. anyone have any recomendations for the rom i should install?

Super D is pretty awesome. It's an improvement on the Cyan roms. So you get Cyan plus some extras.

Could i get a link to the correct version i should use?

Yep here is the link for Super D

thank you installed it and i am no longer having any issues. Wonderful

new rom

Have any of you seen this thread by Cornflipper at PPC geeks? :
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=109527

I just took the plunge and flashed, I hope this is legit, well if not.... that is what insurance is for right? lol
So, I flashed it and it seems to be a little more stable, it has a new sys and new Radio..... I hope it turns out to better than stock, it will make waiting for the HSPL a little eaiser.

Flashed the new rom last night basically for the new radio ( 2.25 ). I ran it for a couple of hours before I put Sense 2.5 2011 back on it. The radio is better where I live ( I got an extra bar at home ) and the calls seemed a little clearer with more volume. Data and sms seem smoother and the rom seems a little faster and smoother. I do like it better .

After having this rom on for a day or so , the the thing that really sticks out is that there is virtually no memory leak , I can't believe it ! My free memory has been at 52 - 56% all day . Was worth the flash.

I jumped on this and I have to say, I'm really happy that I did. The device is notably more 'snappier' than it was. I never really had much of a memory leak problem, but I'm seeing slightly less memory usage than I typically do.
No problems at all updating, either. The installer that was posted on the first post of that thread worked out of the box for me, painless and easy. Just a re-sync to get my contacts back and some reconfiguration was all that was required. Cornflipper is my hero
One thing I noted that I like, and maybe it was there in the stock ROM and I just missed it during setup, was the ability to set the multimedia button to launch the TouchFlo Music tab. While the music app still seems pretty laggy/slow with a 10GB library on a storage card, being able to use that button makes me happy. If only I knew how to set the volume granularity under TouchFlo. (WMP still makes a better MP3 player mode for now IMO)
Not sure about battery usage, I went down to 90% pretty fast, but I've been downloading/reinstalling a bunch of things. Radio does seem to stay 3G instead of 1X better than it did as well.
I recommend. Nothing appears to have gotten worse.
edit: It also seems that the data connection will turn itself on by default now after soft-resetting the device, which is new for me. It was always OFF for me unless I turned it on manually. Data conn still dies when powering the phone off, though. I've had issues with data crapping out randomly, maybe that will be fixed too, but haven't had the ROM long enough to know one way or the other.
edit 2: I thought I took a major hit in battery life today, without even using the phone for anything it was down to 50% after being unplugged for 9 hours. However, it also charged back to 100% in about 15 minutes, so it looks like flashing the ROM messes up the battery gauge again. Using my original trick of charging, unplugging, charging, unplugging ... until it just won't charge anymore. Worked when the phone was new

I highly recommend it!
I have to agree with the concensus over at PPCGeeks . . . this rom ROCKS!
One of the bigest things for me is that A2DP starts automatically now. When I get into my car and start one of my Podcasts, it imediately plays through the car stereo; I don't have to go ino the BT settings and start it!
The memory leaks seem to have been fixed for the most part - it starts at 52% after a restart and only creeps up a bit from there. I also see far moe 3G coverage than with the old ROM.
I can't say that I have noticed any battery improvement though . . . but it is certainly no worse!
If you haven't updated yet . . . what are you waiting for?

BRosenow... did you do anything to get it to start automatically? I'm not that lucky. Also, is your BT sound of poorer quality? Mine sounds kind of crappy and I think it's the phone b/c my old phone sounds pretty good. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Official ROM available on PCD Phones
The official ROM is available on PCD Phones website. I'm going to assume it's the same.

No, I didn't do anything special . . . in fact I noticed it by accident. Since this was a problem with the previous ROM I stopped using it, but one day I just started playing a PodCast when I got into my car and it played through the radio. I was pleasantly surprised!
I can't say that I have noticed that the sound quality is lower (I mostly listen to spoken-word Podcasts, so quality is not a big issue), but I do notice a half-second pause from time to time. It's a bit annoying, but not a big deal considering what I'm listening to - if I was listening to music I imagine it would be VERY annoying!

Installed - but WORSE memory mgmt?

So I upgraded to the latest and greatest and have seen worse behavior in memory management. I used to be able to go a number of days without rebooting, now memory shoots from 58% upon boot to 70% in a few minutes. Exact same applications installed, nothing new but the ROM.
I've also had strange issues where the phone doesn't always ring -- screen lights up, but no ringtone.
Anyone else see new issues since upgrading?

More oddities with the new ROM
FYI: I also manually put my phone into Vibrate mode...it somehow went back into Automatic mode without my knowledge / intervention (which also disrupted a meeting I was in when my alarm went off). Not sure if this is because I was using ActiveSync at the time...but this new ROM is IMHO not nearly as good as the stock one.

ROM is official via Verizon Support Page
Looks like Verizon has made this official. If you go to the support page on Verizon.com and click on software updates, it takes you to:
http://www.pcdphones.com/phone_downloads.aspx?bid=136&cid=1&mid=364&carrier=Verizon Wireless

I took the plunge two days ago and upgaded to this new ROM. Wow, what an improvement! Maybe it's my imagination, but the device seems to run faster, the touch screen seems more accuate, expecially when typing and cell reception is better.

honestly...
and no disrespect to those who DID notice an improvement, but after flashing to this updated ROM and using my device as normal, i don't see any difference at all.
Sure, they fixed that issue when you first restore your sms database and it takes FOREVER to re-thread your messages...but now, i just see that they "fixed" it by stopping my restored messages from re-threading at all. so much for that..

For me, the Energy ROM is the best balance of performance and functionality. He provides several options and updates the ROMs frequently as new .cabs become available. The download links are in one of the first few posts in this thread:

Nova HD Rebuild Problems

HI guys. I flashed the latest Nova HD build last week, and up till now it has a few problems.
Speaker not working (the normal one not the in-call speaker)
I tried playing videos on youtube and games and even my music but it does not work at all, I checked and all the volume settings are full. I have tried many solutions like rebooting the phone, reflashing the rom, blowing the speakers. It's worth noting that the sound works on my headphones when they are plugged in. HELP?!
Glitch-y notification bar
Sometimes the notification bar toggles cannot be seen and the whole notification drop-down is blank. For this one I have no idea what is going on but when I open an app or something like that and then exit the notification bar comes back. This one is just irritating, nothing much though.
Battery life isn't as good as claimed but small issue, I lived through a short battery life on my Motorola Atrix before the screen got smashed after I unbootlocked it.
Thanks in advance!!

Also..
It's worth noting that it's not a hardware issue I believe as the speaker was working on the MIUI Rom I flashed on it when I got it as a gift and never touched it until recently, and the headphone icon in the notification bar does not show up when the headphones are plugged in, and I can't remember if this is supposed to happen.

In cwm made ​​three and flash ROM format. in aroma intaller not reformat and install the basic version (no custom). so try to find out if you have the same problem. What's important not to restore the system app with titanium backup.
Sorry for my English.

I'm sorry I didn't really get you. Are you suggesting that I flash a stock rom without backup and then switch back or flash a basic version of the rom without backup? Or flash cm9 stock without mods before switching back?

I dont have any bugs like you. Just try full wipe before flash the rom again.

Actually you need to format 2 cache and not the third (date format / factory) that will also clear the rom.In this condition do not lose anything of your information. From there, install zip from sd / sd choose zip and flash rom nova. In aroma installer asked you to select rom based (you choose the first three options) and install.
Inviato dal mio LG-P990

Sorry
Hi guys, sorry for the late reply, I've been busy at school lately. Well I've basically redownloaded the rom, completely wiped the phone, including the dalvik cache, installed the rom free of any tweaks, before reinstalling the desired rom, and both have no effect on the speaker. I'm really lost but I can't really be bothered to unroot my phone and send it in, and still have to pay for it.
p.s. I have another problem. Sometimes while scrolling, the scrolling isnt smooth esp. when trying to add widgets etc. or change the app operations. Like the words all blend together for a while like it's laggin before returning to normal. Is this normal?
Thanks for all your input!

Did you try to match RIL? Download getRIL (search in google play) and see if your RIL is matching. I'm new here, so I'm not sure if what I'm saying is correct, hehehe.

Left speaker issue

I'm running TD 9.1, and prior was on 8.0. Tried both stock kernel, and a few other ones with no luck. At first when the sounds starts playing, the left speaker works fine, then with in a sec, it will fad to almost nothing. Is this something someone else has encountered? For all I know it has been like this since day one.. But I don't believe so.
Edit: I have also tried clean installs. i have not tried other roms yet.
Double edit: My xda search is not working, but google did for me. Found one other person having somewhat the same issue, but it was never answered. I hate to bump an old tread like that, after i have posted mine already.

I have the exact same issue. Tried million ROMs, sound patches and tricks but nothing change. The easiest way to see the difference between the two speakers is to run the Audio Test using HTC Function Test by dialing *#*#3424#*#*
Finally, I managed to get S-Off and now I'm going to get back to 100% stock flashing RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.3.exe, I'll do the test again and update the post.
EDIT: I'm full stock and it didn't fix it I guess I have to send it back...
BTW, what did you do? Did you fixed yours?

Running Sinless 5.1.5 now with elemental, everything works 100%. I guess for some reason my phone just didn't like TD, we all know they have a personality of there own..
Sorry for the long wait before response, I don't pay attention very well.

CyanogenMod 12 for HTC One Mini 2 (Memul)

Hi guys,
Thought I would start a thread for users of CyanogenMod 12 for HTC One Mini 2 (memul).
I have installed a nightly dated 24th February 2015. It seems to be working great, my only issues have been:
After phone restart, the first time you call someone you cant hear them. Call them again, the problem is fixed and doesnt seeem to come back for that contact. (will happen again for other contacts the first time you call them though).
Camera is very laggy and doesnt respond well at all...the viewfinder is super stuttery and laggy and when you hit the take a picture button it can take a second or two to respond. I dont use the camera much so it doesnt bother me.
Have had some problems with the music player not outputting music to the headphones after a while, but taking the headphones out, pressing play so it plays out the speaker, then putting the headphones back in fixes this. Again,
not a big issue.
Official TWRP stops working after going through setup, but factory reset from within CM12 fixes it if you do have to re-flash or something.
So I recommend CM12 latest nightly for our phone, its better than CM11 and actually had less problems than the Release channel rom for our device (CM11). Although that ROM says it has no known issues, there are known issues that have not been noted on the wiki.

Hey thanks for doing this, I am considering CM12 on my phone too. i use the loud speaker and the camera a lot, does this impact the sound quality? i really enjoy the boom sound on this phone.

Loud speaker works fine, and one of the great things about cyanogenmod is the built in system level equalizer, so boom sound equivalent is built in. Camera, on the basis of the build i am using from mid Feb, is not so good...actually the pictures are not so bad but the actual viewfinder is very laggy and pressing the take shot button is slow to respond. It could be fixed in newer nightlies, I have been away from home for over a month but when i get back ill flash a new nightly.

Thanks for the advice, I installed march 25th build last night.
From your first post, only problem i experienced was the camera, its still very laggy, and the picture quality dose not compare well to the original. I have tired third party camera app but no joy, similar issues. Other than that, happy to say every thing else is working fine, i will update regularly to see if camera improves.

Hi all,
I'm using CM12 since 2 weeks. In some case, the phone is very laggy. For example, with Chrome or also when opening new apps, of when i switch from app to other.
Maybe i'm not using the correct boot or recovery or radio.
Can you tell me which one is recommended with the CM12 ROM ?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I have been flashing the latest nightly. I think we need to log a JIRA issue for the camera, but I havent checked if someone already did. It doesnt seem to be getting better does it?
Dont use chrome...if you dont like the cyanogen browser, try firefox XD
The best recovery is TWRP, see the other posts in our part of the forum about this. Make sure your get the U-RA version of TWRP as the official TWRP page doesnt list our device for latest versions.

Also I should note that the calendar doesnt work in this ROM in offline mode, which is true for all Cyanogen ROMs i believe. But the solution is to install from DroidForge the offline calendar account, and then you can enter items in the calendar without google calendar, or sync USB with outlook etc (latter requires purchase of sync program separately to go on your PC).

Bad news for CM12 on memul: the only developer u-ra has stopped working with our device. So there are no new nightlies anymore since 04/11 and we don't know when it will be going on.
