CM10.1 is running surprisingly smoothly for me, far smoother than CM10 (plagued by random reboots)

Some issues I've noticed

No Wifi Tether

When on a call with the screen off, if I receive an incoming call (call waiting) it doesn't light up the screen to show me

Some Google Apps don't work (Voice and Youtube) to be exact, I've tried various things, multiple fix permissions with different programs still nothing (12/12/12 gapps)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Both GV and YT are fine here. YT has the same overlay problems that have been around for a while, works fine otherwise.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Fappa:
Is there some way to fix/enable Touch to focus for the camera? I seem to have this problem with all CM releases on this phone...the camera is just blurry and tapping the screen doesn't focus anything (whereas on stock rom it definitely works). I even tried downloading a few different camera apps from the play store and they all don't work in the same way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
YT smooth as butter here--better than any previous version for me, at least.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I'm on today's latest nightly (2/13) and it has nice improvements to the camera but as in all prior ROMS, I can't figure out how to change where the pictures are stored. Anyone know if there's a setting for that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
You can view change log and download updates in about phone/cyanogenmod updates. No need to reflash gapps. Just updated to 2/13. It did reset my lcd density that I changed earlier..no biggie. They seem to not have the lastest change log up yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I still haven't gotten tethering to work yet, and FoxFi just immediately crashes, but Open Garden does work.

It's a little wonky but it seems okay. It forces bluetooth on first thing and for me, it prompted about 5 times for it. Then it waited for a connection from another device. I launched Open Garden on the Nexus 7, same thing with forcing on bluetooth, then it connected to my Note after a VPN prompt.

It seems to "just work" now, not having to fiddle with anything. I turned off bluetooth and it didn't freak out or anything, and i'm back on wifi (at my desk). I'll mess with it some more, but it's at least a workaround for now.

I think it'll do Wifi too, not sure. I might play with that some.

Big caveat; a ton of apps don't see a network connection. Firefox, irssiconnectbot, a new news apps, Pulse, etc, are all happy as clams. But Engadget, Flipboard, and a few others think there's no internet connection. Which is odd, because I use a VPN all the time here and all those same apps are happy.

Found the reason why some apps aren't happy. Although still not sure why my previous Bluetooth tether + VPN worked fine.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ecam315:
I am on the newest nightly, seems to be running okay, few random freezes and reboots, but it was a dirty flash.

2 issues, first is battery life seems horrible, haven't added any apps or changed any sync settings since cm10. Second the Gps turns on automatically when an app request a location, even though I have the gps disabled. I want to be able to use the cell network for location, but only want the gps if I turn it on manually.

sent from my galaxy note running CM10.1 and the ICSBlaze radio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I haven't had ANY freezes or reboots, and I upgraded from CM10 latest nightly. As for battery life, it's been okay, a little more than usual but not bad. If you have bluetooth on, however, the device NEVER sleeps, that hurts it right now. I'm seeing 7-7.5%/hr when I'm used to 5-5.5%/hr on my device on CM10 and previous ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dluv79:
Battery life for me on all ROMs has been abysmal. I have Bluetooth and GPS turned off all the time. Oh well, take the good with the bad.

CM 10.1 I've had a few freezes and reboots, but it hasn't bothered me much. GPS works (I use Navigon 4.7 USA&Canada), phone works with no issues so far, I use Camera JB+ and it works great for pics and video. All around I'm pretty happy. Settling in nicely.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
2/13 running fine for me. No reboots or freezes. There should be video record preview fixes coming soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ltilt2:
I think it's been added to the 2/13 nightly....

change logs are not up to date
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
You mean its not blurry while your recording video? Mine still blurry. But it's fine when I go back to watch it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
Kind of looks like storage options will be added in the next release.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nikko370:
M3 build super solid no reboots or flicker or any forced closed apps. Nice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I found m3 wanting. it would allow flicker from one " page" to the next, literally for readers, figuratively with other apps. for instance if you viewed a photo in gallery then finger enlarged it, it would switch back and forth between the normal and enlarged pics. It also fc'd on me failing to activate my morning alarm. and of course there is the failure to get BT to toggle reliably without a reboot. All in all, I'd say B, B+
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
I get the lags and freezes and system crashes as well. in fact I had a bout of mega lag while I was typing this and had to force reboot my phone. I believe it not to be apps crashing so much as the the kernel or the ROM lagging out because these lags and crashes and freezes occur not only a app but also just in the ROM itself on the home screen. I'll experiment with different governors to see if maybe that's the cause. My thinking here is that it's the governor's because these crashes also only occur when I'm attempting do more than one thing at a time or do one thing quickly such as scroll a page quickly, as in my Kindle app which gets the page flickering. I'm using the April 11th M build with the kernel it came with. Using interactive governor atm .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] briand.mooreg:
O4-12 seems better, for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Shagerty:
Im getting flicker on the lockscreen again with m3 and since april builds came out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Are you guys clean flashing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
I wipe system and caches every time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Wiping system is pointless as the ROM update script does that itself.. And when he means clean he means factory reset. Which, IMO, is not needed when updating a ROM. But if you're having problems, nandroid, factory reset, and see the problems persist or don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Shagerty:
Yes.

Already knew that. Tried a nandroid, factory reset and I still have screen flicker on the lockscreen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
No very rarely only when it seems essential. then I nandroid and flash and it turns few of these problems are due to a " dirty flash." and it takes literally months to reconstruct a factory flash
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
If you're having issues, clean flash. I don't think it is fair to fault the ROM. I literally have zero issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I think it's perfectly fair considering that those who clean flash and those who don't have thesame issues, many of them long-standing. this is not a patriotism issue, no need to be loyal to the room for chrissakes! it's clearly the ROM!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
after dealing with several issues and a lot of testing, it is my opinion that this roms lag and freezing issues are a result of putting a load on the cpu. whenever i put a load of any amount on the processor, sufficient to make the second core kick on usually, the system would lag out then lock up. it happens constantly, and yes, i did installs on a formatted system in which i manually wiped and formatted each partition. aka, clean install. same issues on dirty flash. no joy in fjkang versions iether. i am sad i no longer have the march 17 nightly, it was the last stable version i used before the april releases. tried different combos of roms and kernels with various setting configs, no luck, so i am switching back to the B12 release by flappjaxxx untill this issues gets resolved. it has rendered my phone almost usless because my apps and system lock up constantly. pitty, i love cyanogenmod!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Only issue I have on the 0406 I'm on right now is still bluetooth tether. I haven't had any problems otherwise with bluetooth as I just leave it on all the time now. It used to generate a wakelock 100% of the time, but since that's fixed I just leave it on.

No lags, freezes, very rarely a reboot (3+ days)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
So sweet to see storage options in camera.

Edit: this is one build I'd recommended to do a clean install. I just noticed a few new goodies:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bjpeu:
I have a question with my SGH-i717. When I call somebody or somebody call me, I can clearly hear them but they hear me with lots of noise. My phone worked well before I flashed JB 4.1.2. No such issue at all. Right now, I just flashed the latest rom: Cyanogenmod version 10.1-20130413-unofficial -quincyatt and flashed the Kernel: 3.0.63-hotcaez-v3.0.9-g9ee1836. But it still can't be fixed. Have you guys any idea for fixing this? I downloaded the Kernel from this website:http://goo.im/devs/flappjaxxx/i717/kernel, and got 3.0.9. But when I flashed it and got the version is 3.0.63-hotcaez-v3.0.9-g9ee1836. Is this real 3.0.9?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Wrong thread. This is for official CM10.1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I don't see these storage options. Maybe tonight's build? But I have noticed for the past few weeks that the phone lost its self-timer. Do you think we'll get that back?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bjpeu:
I tried the CM-10.1-20130413-unofficial-quincyatt as well. the same issue happened.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Well the camera self timer is still missing. Why is that? And I'll bet you 10 to 1 that BT is still screwed. ...I hope I lose this one....

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

Guess I'm a sad winner. BT still a struggle. Camera does allow you to choose a sdcard. Wonder what that exactly means. Oh well, one step forward, two steps back
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
SD on the top on 4-14 release. Don't know what you mean on self timer.

Edit: OK I see about the timer on the camera. No worries, it will come back. At this rate the M4 may end up a release candidate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Whether I choose sdcard or internal, it still goes to the same place,the so called internal sdcard. (Sdcard0)So this doesn't seem much of an option. It would be nice if sdcard really meant the external sdcard(sdcard1)

The self timer was the same self timer almost all cameras had. You could set it to go off in 10 15 or 20 seconds, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
I see that too. I'm not gonna drive myself crazy about it. Fixes come nightly. No other platform does that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I'd agree with you but I see few fixes. BT has been broken for months. Timers been gone for weeks. Now we have a cosmetic change to the storage with no functionality. Builds come nightly. Fixes come rarely, it seems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nikko370:
Running smooth still even on 4 -15 everything works no problems yet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TheHamPimp:
Dude, these are nightlies, and they come with no implied functionality or right to complain. If you'd like to help, install M3 and then log all the bugs in JIRA, complete with logcats. Otherwise, you can consider them a cool novelty that will teach you about how software is developed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] stgeorge88:
+1

this is a community effort that give you an awesome product to use for free. many software costing hundreds of dollars arent even close to the quality of this.

also BT is working 100 for me. switching on and off, headphones, beam, all work fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
The only issues I'm having with the nightlies are the problems of my CPU getting bogged down to the point where causes system crashes every few minutes. The cause is unknown, and even on cresh install with mo apps or tweaks set, no difference. Any attempt to multitask or perform rapid series of actions yields a mega lag. Started after the march 20 release, getting progressively worse with each update. Clean install every time since the issue became noticeable. My logs get corrupted every time this lag out occurs, so I guess I'm up a certain Creek. Ill test out the next M release, until then I'm using flappjaxxx's uclf6 B12 with FJ tools.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Sorry, dudes, we all have a right to complain. No one need give it to you. Even a free product should work. If it doesn't, you should speak up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
Come on people, complaints aren't appreciated when your in someone else's house. Do as you would when your invited to a strangers house. Thanks.

On a brighter note... This app is confirmed to work on external sd

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.camerajbplus

Edit: After you install this app, its OK to delete the stock gallery/camera.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
I ended up going back to M3. The nightly release was just a bit too buggy for me. Looking forward to M4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
That's good advice. Think of it as a house with the door open all day and night long. And they give treats. Sometimes. once in awhile tricks. It's just like Halloween. very quiet....

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

I cannot figure out how to delete the stock camera. And I suppose that would have to be done ROM by ROM, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
Use titanium backup and look for the stock gallery app. Back it up if you like before you delete it. The gallery app is also the camera.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
thanks. That worked fine. I guess the only way to a gallery now is through the phone which is no sacrifice since gallery often closed on me. Thanks again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
Actually, that camera app also gives you a new jb+ gallery too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
Does anybody think if it could be the fact that I recently had a JTAG performed on my phone after a swap file app crashed my bootloader could be causing my issues? Or am i not alone, just my phone seems cantankerous?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
You may be having issues caused by SD card. I've read many times that users had to reformat the SD card and it solved many issues. Make sure you back everything up on your PC cause it will get a full wipe.

Edit: I quit loading my apps to SD cause I had so much bog in launching my apps. The ROM in our phones runs at a faster rate than the SD will ever run. Guess that's why Nexus devices don't use them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
There's nothing special about the 4/16 from reading the changelog, as far as I can tell, but it is smooth as silk and if it weren't for the broken BT toggle (VERY annoying), I'd say it's perfect. I did change cameras, though. If anyone knows a work around to the BT toggle aside from rebooting, please let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I've had zero problems with BT as long as I just leave it on and don't touch it. When bluetooth was causing a wakelock, I turned it on and off and had problems with it, but since that's been fixed and I leave it on, no BT problems at all for a few weeks, and I connect my bluetooth GPS a few times a day and my Nexus 7 (as a trigger in Tasker to turn on Wifi Tether, since BT tether is still broken)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I have to say leaving BT on 24 hours per day is not exactly the work around to the problem of not being able to toggle it on and off ( it's also not the least obvious" solution") that I'm looking for, but thanks! it reminds me of the old solution to the Vietnam War, " let's just declare victory and leave!"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Erm, BT uses about 0 power when not in use. What's the issue? Obviously this is not the "fix", it's a workaround.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
If it were zero or near that, you're right, it would be a workable though inelegant, workaround. But it is responsible for 4% of my battery use and that is a bit more than I'd like to waste.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
How did you come up with 4%? I've never seen bluetooth in battery status, don't see it in BBS anywhere except "bluesleep" in kernel wakelocks for a total of 13s, or 0.1%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
out was listed in battery this morning at that level. I've been using it today so it's proportional use has gone down off the chat, apparently. But I'll leave it on tonight and try to get a screenshot tomorrow morning and you'll see it right there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TheHamPimp:
Installed 4/16 today (from a march nightly) and no issues yet. I did a full wipe and reset, because I'm not much of an app guy, so it's no biggie.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LuckyStrike88:
Aside from random reboots the only real problem I've had from day one is having to restart audio apps in order to get them to play. Is there a workaround for this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lowspeed:
Set lpa.decode to false in build.prop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
Better yet, make a file called "local.prop" with the same things you would put in build.prop, and put that in "data/". That way you don't have to edit build.prop everytime you flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I'm seeing about 1 full reboot a day since moving to 4/16, my previous build, 4/6, was up for a week before rebooting to move to 4/16.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I've had a similar experience with 4/18. About three reboots per day. BT toggle is still funky and the jb cameraI I installed, although great, doesn't play well with all my other apps. I had to switch the stock camera back in and it now lacks macro focus as well as a timer. but it seems to know where the sd card is. Another step forward. Two back . ....

Correction: the BT toggle may be working. I'm not quite sure. It requires some testing

Nope. Still broke.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
It's been said over and over again. Until we get a leak or Official, BT is going to be sketchy. I have had 0 random reboots on 4/18 dirty flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
Same here. No random reboots on 4/18. Running very much snappier than 4/16 which was very laggy and slow for me.

So far so good for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I'm on 19. As far as I can tell and from the change log no big deal. But we'll see about the reboots. And maybe soon. leak or no leak, the BT toggle well return. I never had BT problems in the past, especially with the toggle so I don't know what could have pushed it backwards. It seems a bit bizarre. BT works perfectly for me. It's just getting it working that's a problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Wow I don't know what happened but a few minutes ago my phone went into slow motion mode. No CPU hogs, nothing on top, nothing obvious at all. CPU speeds were normal, bouncing between high and low as ondemand tends to do. Screen was very jerky, animations were very slow, but things like scrolling seemed to be fine, which seems strange to me.

Hot reboot fixed it, so wasn't the kernel or at least not the resulting slowness.

0416 build
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
What build?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nethead72:
anyone know how to get Facebook to sync contacts? settings are correct, it says it last synced moments ago, but nothing is there. i do not not want to download strange people's apk files and install them, i would rather mod my own myself, i just need the code. any help appreciated, as i am not the only one running 10.1 with this issue.

btw, all of my issues with mega lags and freezes vanished with the April 16 nightly. Spinning like a top now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
0416, but going to update today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildoggs:
I'm running the latest built of cm10.1 and I turned off my phone last night to charge as I always do, and when I put it on the charger it was 12% I took it off the charger this morning when I got up and it was to 1%. Obviously its not charging. I put it back on the charger with the phone on and its charging ok. I'm not sure if I'm the only one having this issue but if I'm not make it known so we can get a fix on it. Other wise I love this ROM. Even with its little bugs here and there its the smoothest ROM this phone has ever seen. Can we get a fix for this issue? Thanks op.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
I use UberSync for contacts, photos, status updates. Also make sure that you hit menu while in the "phonebook" then contacts to display. Make sure FB is selected.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
If you turned the device OFF then the rom has nothing to do with charging.

As for why you would charge that way is beyond me anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
I have been having issues with my charging as well but now I notice it may not of been the ROM but the port is likely damaged. Just bought another and am waiting for it in the mail.

Any charger I put to my phone, I have to put it at an angle to get it to charge or it wont charge or it will charge sporadically.

Get the CurrentWidget and see what your phone is charging at.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
That has been a constant problem for my the phones. But so far, it has always turned out to be the power cord, not the phone or port. The cords are at such an angle, and of such cheap quality, that the conductors break down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I'd certainly prefer the cables have a softer metal than the jack. :highfive:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildoggs:
Thanks for all your replies guy's but installed another update and the problem has been corrected. :thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Well the last two versions seem to have affected the power boot. It used to be it gave you several options including rebooting into recovery. Now I can only reboot but not into recovery. Did I do something wrong? Does anybody else have this problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
The setting is in Developer options. Turns on the option to reboot into recovery. You probably did a full wipe and didn't turn it back on maybe?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Maybe.Thanks. that was in the back of my mind but it just wouldn't move forward... Let me give it a try.Yup, thanks, it did the trick!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildoggs:
I don't even have a developer option. Where do I find it. I looked under settings and there was nothing there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
Ok so I changed my charging port today on the phone.

Wow!

Someone please shoot me if I ever consider getting an iPhone.

I changed my charging port in about 20 min while stopping and following a tutorial on YouTube.

Was so simple.

I changed the front screen on my daughter's iPhone, took me almost 3.5 hours. I know it's deeper in but still. I had to buy magnifying glasses just to see all the tiny screws and nonsense. I wouldn't wish my worse enemy to try changing an iPhone screen.

My two second rant, lol, carry on...

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

Go into settings, then about phone. On the last tab, keep tapping it. Will enable the developer and performance tabs.

Enjoy!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildoggs:
Thanks man.
