Alarm Ringtone Workaround:

Turn your phone sideways (landscape) and you will see a little music note button in each alarm that lets you change the ringtone.

Alternatively, you can change your font size to small and the button will be visible (as discovered by bobbyphoenix in the 4.2.1 thread in the development section).

I'm really using barebones, literally almost no apps. Just basics.

Anyhow, I notice that LED notification fails on incoming text messages. Not sure where to fix this. It shows enabled on the settings but texts won't notify with LED.

Otherwise its alright. Also tried copying the CM10.1 browser to my N4 phone. Failed. I miss this browser. Thats about it

To get the LED notifications to work go to System Settings > Advanced > Sensors tab > then toggle "Enable Keys Notifications" off and then back on. Now you can go back to System Settings > System > Notification Light and set it up how you want it. Can't remember if you need to reboot after that or not... I think it should work without a reboot.

I was having similar issues for about two days after updating to the 5/4 nightly, and did multiple clean installs with no change. I finally just left it alone for a day and let it run its course. I'm now on the 5/7 nightly and everything seems to be working as expected at this point. Not really a technical "how to fix" tip, but you aren't alone and there is a chance that your phone is just taking an extra long time to settle as mine seems to have needed.

RC2 seems to have issues for some. I flashed it, but didn't have any issues, but a new nightly came out right after it on the same day, so I dirty flashed that right over RC2. No wipes or anything. Just flashed, rebooted, waited 10 min, and used it. So far I haven't had one issue. It's been up for 20 hours now, and super smooth. I'd say flash RC2, wipe caches, fix permissions, reboot to let it settle, and then dirty flash the 5/11 nightly. I'm also using it as is if that makes a difference. I mean I haven't touched any system or kernel settings. The only things I've changed is the ringtones and the display timeout.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] link9rly:
I'm currently running the 10.120130423 Nightly. It seems that every other update simply breaks my phone in one way or another. All of the nightlies after the one I'm running cause an odd tint issue that causes my phone's screen to turn blue whenever I tweak the brightness. I've also noticed that it becomes slower and the phone seems to get warmer than usual. I tried the latest release candidate and it's constantly reconnecting to my network then disconnecting. I've tried soft and hard resets but it's the same. I might do a clean install after tedious backing-up but for now, I'm going to stick with the nightly I'm running.

I'm thinking it has to do with my radio, which is still running the stock one I've had since I bought it. I'm thinking of updating it but I want to back it up in case it completely breaks the signal.

rannota ******

Just made an account to give some feedback. Do the developers read this thread along with thread in the developer forum?

I'm currently running the 4/23 release. Any version up until 5/13 (I haven't tried any newer builds past 5/13) would give me the following problems:

random restarts: ( usually caused by trying to scroll in a browser or app like " Reddit News"

difficulty unlocking: pressing the unlock screen would light up the options/menu/back/search, but the screen will stay black. I need to press the power button again to re-lock it and then unlock it again for the screen to turn on. sometimes this takes more than one attempt.

upside down unlock: screen turns upside down on wake, this has only happened once and I couldn't replicate it

panorama does not focus: I started noticing this problem around the RC2 and 5/11 builds. when taking photos with the panorama function, they would be completely out of focus, had anyone else had this problem because I haven't read about that one in particular yet?

That's all I can think of for now, thanks! I really wish I could use the newer builds because they have an improved battery life for me, but without the panorama function, I can't use it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] leftoversalad:
I have experienced all of these as well (currently on the 5/10 nightly). One thing to also add is that the notification light hasn't been functioning either (no longer lights up when receiving messages). Other than that, things do seem to be functioning mostly well. The random restarts are pretty painful though and don't seem to have much consistency (it often times happens when I'm not even handling my phone; I just catch the Samsung logo flash on screen out of the corner of my eye).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] t989BeLikeItDo:
according to the people in the developer thread, what you're talking about is called BackLight Notification, or BLN. This was disabled after 4/23 because of battery issues as well as other bugs and errors. As far as I know the official devs are not planning on returning they functionality, but a couple devoted individuals are working on a flashable apk to enable BLN.

Has anyone flashed the new 5/14 or 5/15 firmwares and tested the panorama focus?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Onnes:
So I've been having consistent issues with the recent nightlies, which I guess I am going to put in this thread since I can't post in the Developer section.

Basically, all nightlies after mikeyman's 5-17 experimental (including his 5-18 experimental) have been locking up on the android browser and Chrome (both beta and stable). Sometimes I can back out of the browser or application and kill it, other times it gives the option to close the unresponsive application, and often enough the phone either just reboots and has to be forcibly powered off.

I have flashed the Odin firmware and verified the new firmware version is there.

I've tried flashing the ROM both while only wiping the cache and with a factory reset.

Bricked phone after CM10.1 Nightly - Constant rebooting even when booting into TWRP

I recently installed a fresh install of cm-10.1-20130523-NIGHTLY-hercules.zip I noticed the same issues with very slow phone when opening Chrome or other browsers.

Today in installed cm-10.1-20130524-NIGHTLY-hercules.zip (dirty) - wiped Dalvik Cache and installed over top .. was working for the majority of the day.. but all of a sudden now im experiencing constant rebooting.. the phone gently vibrates every 2 seconds about 30 seconds plus.

When i hold down the +/- volume bottons together to boot into TWRP 2.5.0 it loads up.. but then after 10 seconds or so it just reboots again

I am going to try to reflash odin tonight when i get home.. but wondering if anyone has any other suggestions

I just tried the 6/3 release. The panorama function still isn't working for me.

To be more specific, when opening the camera, and switching to panorama, the focal point is permanently set to macro, focusing only on objects within 3-4 inches of the lens. Any panorama photo taken of objects past this distance is blurry and looks terrible.

The 4/23 nightly is the last nightly that I have tried that still has a properly working panorama function. I'd love to use the newer nightlies, but so far this problem hasn't been addressed.

Is anyone else running a nightly past 4/23 that is taking panorama photos that focus properly?

Radio for CM10.1 OK to flash from CWM?

I haven't had the courage yet to upgrade from the M3 version of CM 10.1 for T989.

Previously when I updated to the RC builds my firmware was not working right.

I had installed UVMC6 but was having weird reboots and hardware issues. (keyboard tracking)

I've been running M3 with UVLI1 for about 2 months with no problems.

I'd like to run the fully baked official version. But I'm adverse to using ODIN and KIES.

With the latest full release has anyone been able to simply flash the latest radio when they install

the new CM10.1? A lot of threads I read seemed to suggest that this radio (UVMC6) had to be loaded via

ODIN or by reflashing the phone to latest stock, rooting etc.

I am hoping that I can just download all the relevant zip files do a complete wipe and fresh install.

And just install the radio from within CWM. Otherwise seems like I have to do a lot of flashing over USB

which gives me heartburn just thinking about it.

any advice appreciated
