Official CM Discussion Thread - Galaxy S 5 General

We need one of these, don't you think? Post whatever you want that is related to the official CM nightlies. Share screenshots, share your experiences, post what works and what doesn't.

CM11 runs for me with almost no problems.
"Dead Space " doesn't work anymore, because of touch screen.
I don't need touchwiz!

I have always had a deep love for CM since I have run it since CM6 pretty much but I can't help wondering what the bugs could be. How is the camera quality in CM? I know it'll never get anywhere near stock but still.
What's these touchscreen issues I've been reading about?

So cm 12 comes only in december?

I think he means a side by side comparison of each ROM based on features, modems, kernels, etc
Difficult due to the ever changing nature of each ROM and the ability to swap out kernels and modems. However, it's a good way to compare the ROMs without having to dig through hundreds of posts in the dev forum

You'd be better off going down the threads in the dev section and reading the first few posts. I guess you could use that list click the links but other than knowing what each rom is based off, it's pretty much useless.

It does tell you kernel, modem, known issues, and release date of most current version (admittedly that part does need updated more often). Which I grieve is about 70-80% of what op asked for. What do you want it to do, install rom for you, too?

if you to other phone's forums they have stickies for available roms and their features....comparing to them...this is little less information and not properly updated....
I went to 6 or 7 other forums, and looked in the development stickies. All I saw was was a list of roms, etc. no mention of more then 1 fact about rom. Tell me again how that'd BETTER?

First time poster so I hope this is an acceptable place for this question. Can someone tell me if and which ROM is the most basic? By this I mean it is a blank slate with everything removed besides items needed to operate the phone, mms/sms, camera and internet browsing. Basically everything removed that cannot be replaced by an app from the market. I tried Preception (I think it was that one) and it was ok for a couple days and then it became unstable so I am using Serendipity.
Thanks everyone...

Stability, try andromeda, basic, go cognition. I run andromeda. There is a reason that rom has been around for so long and the dev thread is so short and always on the second or third page of the forums. Just read that thread and you will see the stabiliy.

I tried Cognition a couple months ago but something happened. Not really sure what. I think I used SGS and removed too much stuff and thought it would be easier to just reflash. I was going to go back to it but it looks like the dev may be awol from reading the thread.
I will try andromeda but I am a minimalist and would like for my phone to be the same where if I personally don't need it but it is available from the market or other means then I don't want it on my phone. (not sure if that makes sense but I am pretty new in the custom phone world)

The new title translates into:

Also, does this mean we can expect a stable release in the next month or two?

You guys are great at google... just like me
Hey there,
Just to see if I understood correctly, these weeklies are actually the combination of the weekly nightlies with the stable build from the wizards at the Atrix-Dev-Team? coz in the Mod version it says "CyanogenMod-7-11-07-2011-NIGHTLY-Olympus"...
Anyhow, many thanx for all your contribution for the Atrix community

PSX User Thread/Information - Latest ver.: V3! Merry X-mas! :)

Hi all!
So... the PSX thread is finally closed... but I guess some of us will keep using it, right? So I thought that it would be interesting to create a user thread for this great ROM.
UPDATE: A brief FAQ for you.
Q: So, what happened to the thread?
A: The developer got (allegedly) tired of the slackness of the majority of the people posting in the development thread, i.e. repeating questions that were already answered, repeating requests about features that were already requested, complaints about bugs that were already reported and mostly app/user related, etc.
Q: No more PSX?
A: Incorrect. Development goes on and you can follow it here. I will try to update this post with the most important updates, as apparently some people can't access the new forum from restricted access networks (office).
Q: Can we get nightlies and stuff?
A: It's possible, head out to the PSX forum and read the rules. I will only post released versions here, as the developers clearly want access to the nightlies to be limited, and I wouldn't want to get banned from their forum, would I?
Rejoice! V3 is finally here!
Changelog and mirror thanks to @infiltrata
Updated source to AOSP 4.4.2
Added charging LED option
Completely redone kernel with custom hotplug
Option to hide battery symbol completely
Active Display
Extended options for Quiet Hours
Customized Lockscreen targets

I hadn't logged in a week and read the bad news, sucks for us casual flashers. It would be awesome if they kept their androidfilehost updated and accessible to the public ...everybody wins.

Yes I think it makes sense!
Would be great if someone could follow ct's github and maybe build and share the releases...
On other news, I took the ART "plunge" this morning and so far I'm pretty happy with it! I lost about 1800 point in Quadrant, true, but battery life seems to have improved a lot! Don't know, maybe just placebo... I'll let it settle and try to give it some "normal" use and then I'll switch back to dalvik to compare... we'll see!
Oh and no compatibility issues so far. I was afraid that Carmageddon wouldn't work but it works perfectly with kitkat and art ^_^
Gone but not forgotten
I am a happy PSX user as a well. I tried catching up on all the issues but that was causing the problems but am still wondering since the thread is closed does that mean that CTFROMMN will never release any future updates or new Roms to us regular Joes? As a very new N4 owner I had only tried a few Roms but I have to say hands down, his latest work is the best that's out there right now. Its a shame if its the last one we will see.
I don't always post on XDA, I'm usually one of those who just lurk around and conduct experiments on their cellphone.
A few days ago I bought Nexus 4 after selling my old SGS2, and I tried several roms (both stock and non-stock), and the one that has actually caught my eye was PSX.
Smooth (even though Nexus 4 itself is smooth as hell), feature-rich, battery-friendly, and most importantly - bug free.
I don't know if ctfrommn is reading this (probably not), but just in case he does - you rock. You've made my experience with this device probably 10X better than with any other ROM.
I've read what you said on the official post and I agree that some people need to just shut the hell up and be thankful for what they get.
If you love something, keep on doing it, and let the nay sayers kiss your ass while doing it.
You did a great job on this ROM, and I'm sure a lot of people around here think so as well.
Thank you for your incredible work. I hope I'll get the chance to test and use your and your friends' creations in the future.
can some1 tell me what happened? my n4 is on lg service center, so i didnt check xda :/
^^^^ psx thread was all filled with posts like 'ohh i love this rom, this if do fast so smooth' and there were other posts all having complaints.1000's of posts like these..dev got tired of reading all those useless posts.. warned again and again but nobody listened.. No idea what happened yesterday but I'm sure that dev's mind should've snapped for sure after watching helplessly at the state of thread...
Anyways.. It shouldn't be a problem If There sources keep on getting updated.

People who think that MaclawStudio releases are "fully working" and "daily" are in for quite a disappointment. Cause truth be told, none of his "stable" releases are issue less. His original device, the S3 mini also has problems. There is a reason why the CM11 thread for the S3 mini has 3000+ posts on it. People have issues! If it were perfect, there would be nothing to talk about really.
Just my opinion.

You were right, he always claim that all his rom are perfectly working even though still got bugs with it. He listed there no bug just to attract people to download from him so that he can make more money and i think this is also another reason he kept his sources closed.

Dude relax. I was only making an observation. You need not go as far as deleting the thread.
I myself am going to install future releases from Maclaw to try them out and I will come here to discuss recurring problems.
Nobody wants to start another fight.
Although I find it quite weird that he hasn't created a thread on this forum for the release himself. Maybe he wants to stay away from all this. And i don't fault him for that. Liked or disliked that he is. Peace out.

Almost, read this.
This is a Quote from a Post.
Back in early September of 2016 there was a situation between a friend of mines and XDA. This friend’s name is Nate Benis or better known as Beanstown106. Nate or should I say “Beans” as I call him was upset that a individual had taken his work and posted it on XDA prior to him releasing his official build. He really got upset. This was probably the first time that I had seen Beans upset in public. He normally keeps his thoughts private and so I was surprised. He pulled his source off github and took to G+ to call this guy out.

Not much. Alex didn't like XDA's direction, which seems fair. Creates new site to recreate what once was, admin gets upset, escalates things. Too much drama for me.
I wholeheartedly agree with the "glorified tech support" thing though. It seems most people here can't even pull up proper logs when they have issues. "issue here plz fix o kind dev."
I think XDA has become more of a tech site instead of an actual developer website, albeit developers still post here. If you look at Dev's Base, it doesn't have the completely off topic posts that XDA does. Not saying its a bad thing that XDA does, it just seems Dev's base is a dev site not a tech site.
What firmware are you all using on the new Jan18 build?
Have you tried and success to install Viper4android or any audio mod ?

Dude bugger off. They don't care if we discuss it. As long as no links to downloads are posted here. Look below a few threads and you'll see a discussion about DU that was active over a year. Never got shutdown cause it didn't violate any rules. I don't know why we needed a new thread though.
Stop trying to act all hard. Noob

Sorry if I came across harsh, and discussion is allowed. Just don't see the point of doing it here, when you could get responses from people who actually develop this ROM over on their G+. That's what I really meant, don't see point in this thread. Discussing it is allowed.

IDK, the large majority of Dev's Base seems to not be there for "tech" stuff. Considering the current lead of the site, I doubt it will change either. Its possible though.

It's only possible to keep the site that way if it remains small or if they ban every new user that doesn't know enough.
Looking at their G+ page and at what some DU users ask here on XDA, it's clear not everyone is a genius. Allow normal users to create accounts and install your fancy ROM and then you have a typical XDA thread with dumb questions.
The rom zip has been removed from their download area, is there a problem with it

Nope, it seems there is enough feedback for this RC... (I read that on their Google+ but don't remember where).
