So how's it look so far guys? Good? Stable?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
Seems great. I haven't had any problems so far except their gapps I used don't have GEL so I had to grab it from the pa gapps. The lock screen is definitely cool(notification on swipes overlayed). I can't find the hold back to kill option though, has anyone?

Sent from my Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
I had to go to 3.11. The liquid Gapps are good. The camera is better than zoom cam. All kinds of cool options. So far very stable and much better battery than cm or gummy.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
Tried it on Slot 1 and it failed... So apparently it installs with 3.65 on stock slot only.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
I think I may do that too. How do you pull GEL from the PA bundle? Is it just as simple and unzipping it, hunting down the apk and sideloading it?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
I just flashed the pa Gapps over top after setting up. That gave me the gel launcher.YMMV
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
Does the PA Gapps recognize the Gapps that are already installed and just leave them alone or does it overwrite them? I'm just thinking that the setup of the Liquid package may be more optimized. If that's the case, I'd flash the PA Gapps and then the Liquid Gapps to overwrite the PA ones.... then again, I don't really know how that stuff works. Maybe it doesn't overwrite?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
Haha, YMMV should be the official subtitle for this forum. My mileage is varying from minute to minute here!

I have been using LS3 installed on stock slot with Safestrap 3.65 for about a month (since 12-26)... no problems. This morning, I wiped and installed the new LS3 on stock with Safestrap 3.65. Again, no problems. Then decided that I would try restoring my 12-26 backup and dirty flashing the 1-22 over it so I wouldn't need to set apps back up. Wiped the slot, restored my 12-26 backup and when I tried to install 1-22 it failed. Wiped the slot and tried to install 1-22 and it failed. Even fresh install of 12-26 now fails. Makes no sense. YMMV! :)

Anyhow, my backup still restored fine... so back to running the 12-26 for now.

It appears to be gone. In 12-26 it was the last item on the Developer Options menu.

[MENTION=3683732]mightysween[/MENTION] that's pretty strange. :/ I wonder if downgrading to SS 3.11 would resolve your issue.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
Exactly. It's called GoogleHome.apk

I usually do the reverse and it works. Install fresh new then restore the backup but uncheck system and just restore the data. Works great as long as the general rom is similar. It can get sketchy doing it from cm to gummy or something.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
Downgrading to 3.11 does solve the issue of installing LS3...but it also prevents booting anything (other than VZW stock) installed to the stock slot in 3.65. Not a big deal for most folks, but I really like having those extra 2-3GB available by not using VZW stock and running my daily driver from the stock slot.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
For me it is 3.11 on slot 3. Liquid Gapps. Setup. Flash pa Gapps.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
Thanks! Do you do make it a system app (does it make a difference)? I've used the Titanium Backup 'convert to system' thing before, and I've also moved apps and then modified permissions to match the rest of the system apps and changed the owner. Both seem to work (usually) but I haven't attempted that since I had the Droid X...

Great tip, thanks!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
Yea I made it a system app with Rom toolbox but moving and change permissions or TB would work too. I only did because it would have been if I flashed it but it seemed to work fine before I did. I'd think if you pushed your memory to the limit it might get sketchy if it is just a user app because it might get less priority and get closed or something. That's just my guess though.

Is anyone getting into Deep Sleep? I haven't had it all day, just lots of 300 MHz. I wonder if it relates to the screen triggering the sensor when you pull it out of a pocket or something.

Sent from my Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
If you're using an active lock screen setup kind of like whatever the Moto X has, I would bet that it is something to do with the sensor like you said.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
I don't think I changed anything but that's how it acts. I've had a few apps for that effect go a little wacky and act similar.

Sent from my Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
Yeah, strange that the pocket mode is enabled by default. Like it as a feature but it almost certainly uses battery to keep the proximity sensor active all the time.

This version of LS3 seems to have inherited the battery statistic issue from CM. Running my 12-26 build with battery at 90%...boot into the 1-22 build and battery shows 15%. No effect on actual usage time, just bad % reporting.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
It's the pocket mode. I turned it off and right away got deep sleep. I am getting pretty good battery life so far though so I'm going to leave it on, because I do like it, and see how it goes for a couple days. Then see what I get with it off. So if you don't use it it should give even better battery life hopefully.

Quick question - how are some of you guys installing on the stock slot? I went ahead and tried it (wiped cache, dalvik, system and factory reset first) but it failed almost immediately. I'm using SS 3.11...

EDIT: So I just decided to delete and remake slot 3. It installed correctly on the new slot and things started up ok, but when I try to swipe a word with the AOSP keyboard it crashes after I get about 2 letters in. Anyone else experiencing this? Fixes?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
This build does not seem to install to stock with 3.11 or 3.65. Other ROMS do, including the 12-26 build of liqudsmooth.

Thanks for verifying. May just use the PA gapps or go with the Google Keyboard on the play store (is that one any different that the aosp?)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
I tried pulling the one from PA and it did the same thing so it must be something else in connection. I don't know if the store one is up to 4.4 level or not but it's probably worth a shot.

'When you say pretty good battery life' what do you mean?

I think I figured out the sleep of death thing I had battery doctor installed and I think the combination of that and the battery charging to over 100% was too much for Kitkat

Can anyone tell me what the heck Bubble Options is??
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
The dropoffs after 50% have been in every kitkat build I have tried. As you said, it will sit at 1% for over an hour...and will charge to 107% when plugged in. Obviously, there is a statistical issue here.

Ah, that makes sense. I've been getting the battery weirdness too. One other issue I've just noticed is that with Launcher3 (the default launcher) and Google Experience Launcher, if I enter the widget menu it starts to load and then force closes. I suppose I'll try nova or something.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mightysween:
I am using Holo Launcher HD...just tried GEL and mine also FC's when I go to widgets. GEL was really only designed for Nexus and has been nothing but trouble. I wish CM (and other AOSP derivatives) had used something more tried and tested for a default launcher.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
Its working for me. I always go back into SS and fix permissions before I set widgets..I have been noticing some lag. Not sure why.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
I'm having some lag too. Thought it would have worked itself out by now. I'll try fixing permissions and testing widgets again.

EDIT: Fixing permissions did the trick (launcher 3). Thanks for the advice. Maybe it will improve the lag too - fingers crossed

EDIT 2: using dalvik on liquid beta 3 with the launcher it comes with (launcher 3).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
Clarify. I'm using GEL. And art on gummy and cm and liquid beta 3.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
Anyone else having incoming call weirdness? The first call that came in starting ringing (audio and vibrate) but didn't switch over to the answer-call-screen until the 3rd or 4th ring. I just had another call come in and it did the same thing, but when it finally did pull up the answer-call-screen, it malfunctioned when I tried to answer the call. It let me use the slider and select the green 'pickup call' icon on the right side, but when I did, it just acted like I hadn't done anything; I was still able to use the selector and could drag it around, but no matter which option I selected, it didn't respond. It just kept ringing and when I tried to go to the homescreen, it froze up for a few seconds and then allowed it. I ended up having to do a battery pull, though because it was glitching out pretty bad.

Anyone else having phone call issues like this?

EDIT: Also, does anyone know how to completely turn off vibrate notifications for incoming emails from the gmail app? I went into the settings of the gmail app itself and disabled vibrate notifications, but sometimes it still vibrates when an email comes in. Is there some system setting I'm missing (I've gone through everything twice now).

EDIT: I don't keep a password on my lockscreen and don't want one, but when the screen is on and I'm on the lockscreen, touching the menu button will unlock the phone and bring me to my homescreen. There doesn't appear to be a way to disable this in the settings, which is strange, because the other 3 keys can be changed so they don't react on the lockscreen. Anyone have any ideas?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
That's called menu unlock and there's also home unlock. I switched back to CM 10.1.3 for the week to compare battery life. I actually like that feature and only get menu not home on 10.1.3. It's under the lockscreen somewhere. In here it's screen security then tick boxes. I don't really remember if I turned it on or it was just on in 11 though so it might not be able to be disabled but I'm pretty sure I remember the check boxes.

Sent from my Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cognitivedissonance:
Thanks for the response. I looked again and though there are options to turn on or off the rest of the buttons, the menu button isn't listed. Weird. I know it was there in the previous version.

Anyway, I'm starting to get pretty aggravated with emails causing a vibrate notification. I want texts, and other push apps to give me vibrate notifications so I can't turn off vibrate altogether, but I can't find a setting to disable the email notifications. Anyone got any ideas?

Also, the new build for Hammerhead (and the other two that are always released before everything else) was uploaded yesterday. If we're lucky (and based on the timetables we've seen in the past) we may see another update towards the end of next week. Cross your fingers!

EDIT: Oh, and I definitely didn't see any improvement using ART (in fact, it may have been causing some slowness... we'll see) so I switched back to dalvik.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
The only time ART was better speed for me was when we were all trying it on the first builds of CM11 otherwise it's been worse for me. I'm back on cm11 already. In here those settings are under Settings/Lockscreen/Screen Security. They may just really be missing in LS. There were several things missing I'm hoping they put back that were even in B1.

This build seems no different to me than the one that we initially had. I have very intermittent signal issues, most apps won't even load. I'll sit on Facebook for 4-5 minutes waiting for my news feed to pop up. I just don't think this is ready for a DD for me. I know it's not my hardware either because when I flip back to stock, everything flies.

Is 3G working on CM? Last I had heard they were experiencing issues with it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] B.E.McAllister:
I believe it's just like overclocking, each Bionic handles ROMs differently. I for one have been using it daily since the experimental one. I expect a lot out of my phone and haven't had s problem yet with it. I suffered through the 3g issues at the beginning but I'm mainly in lte at work and home but as of lately I've haven't noticed any issues of drop off. I stream music and videos at least an hour a day and haven't had any lag or buffeting
[Motorola Droid Bionic] uconnpat:
Are you using ART or Dalvik
[Motorola Droid Bionic] B.E.McAllister:
In using dalvik, the two times it so I used art there was too many fc for me. Is it a noticeable difference?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] uconnpat:
to be honest I switched back to 2.9 for a while because I got like 4 sleep of deaths in 3 days
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
1/31 is up. # 10 from the bottom.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] KC69:
1/31 works good both art and dalvik for me. Dalvik is just a whisker faster. No fc s with either. So far the only issue I have with liquid is the font is much too small for my old eyes. And yes I've done every trick to make it bigger without actually going to a root font changer which I guess will be my next operation. Other than that I like it. I'll update again after I do that.

uconnpat, I'm not on 1/31 release yet, buy iirc you were having the same issue with the previous release too. I haven't had a SOD yet (though I've experienced a few other issues) so I'm thinking you may have a phone specific issue.

I wanr this rom so bad, please help me, and thanks in advance for your helpv
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eiht:
Downgrade SS to 3.11. Reboot into stock, open SS and hit uninstall recovery, uninstall SS 3.65, install SS3.11, open it and hit install recovery, then reboot. Unless you want the cm slot then Yes wipe it and put LS3 there. If you have a big SD just backup first in case you want a quick way back.

I haven't been using ART since the very first releases of CM 11. Every time I try it seems more sluggish so I've just stuck with dalvik. I'd imagine restoring everything then switching would be the way to go though because of the time it takes to get it loaded after switching. If you do it after I'd imagine all of that tries to happen in real time after you restore. Just a guess.
