Good news bad news.... The issue isn't limited to this rom. Did a clean wipe and tried cm10.2. And I do not get 3G data there either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazy_smokezalot:
3G data works fine for me on the nightly build 9/28 so maybe i got fixed who knows try updating to 9/28 build see if that helps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Ive been having alot of issues with this rom on the Ktweaker kernel. I have posted about 4 posts listing in pretty good detail my issues and you all seem to just ignore them. So thanks for that.

I am wondering why it takes over an hour to download such a small file everytime i download the nightly. Is this normal? Can we get a mirror? or a torrent file?

I really would appreciate any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HearMeWhisper:
These are nightlys. Expect things not to work. These ROMS are a gift, done in people's spare time. Respect that.

If you use anything other than the stock kernel, don't post issues.

I'm not trying to be rude, but if people didn't reply, either they don't use that feature your having trouble with, or they don't have the same issue. 9 out of 10 times most issues are user related.

I'm not sure about the notification toggles because I don't use them, but check in another aokp rom because I'm pretty sure that's where is from. Most of these features in pac are just pulled from source.

And the issue with the experimental focal, it's now a beta in the app store and I believe that is been addressed.

The Bug Report tab is there for a reason:rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dacmcbibs:
No go. I get SMS and can make calls but if I try to get to anything that requires data it tells me I am offline, the mobile signal indicator will not turn blue. This appears to be coming from cm 10.2. I have the same issue there
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Well i looked in the bug report section and there was nothing posted there. The only section i saw things posted was discussions. I also posted on the bug reports gerrit page a while back but never got a response. And it also seems like that is a very specific sections to post considering is says...

I understand these roms are free and a gift and i love that about them. I also get that things go wrong with them, thats why i am posting it as a bug instead of just finding a work around myself. i have been messing with my phone for quite some time now and although i do not develop my own stuff i know how to use the current tools very well. And i have PAC working on multiple phones in the past so i don't see how some of these problems are user related. I have tried installing with and without customer kernels. I actually was sticking with stock until sombody here suggested Koontz.

I guess i will start posting on the individual CM, PA, or AOKP sections to see if these issues have happened on that side as well but i just dont see how this isnt the proper section since im using the PAC rom. I just figured sombody over here would want to hear about other users issues. I can deal with the problems, i was more posting them to help the build of the rom and just wanted to make sure sombody was seeing these posts.

Also i was still wondering, is 1hr+ average download time for the nightlies?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cwhite8883:
I have noticed this as well. But, what I did find out is that if you wait a little later it seems to go a lot faster. So when you see that it's released just give it a few hours and see how the download speeds are.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HearMeWhisper:
I understand, it was mostly your vernacular that threw me off.

Honestly, I think your best bet is to use the pac forums. The dev in this thread just maintains the thread, not actually on the pac team. He will occasionally compile a rom if the build bot messes up.

The only kernel I've used was chronic kernel. No real complaints here with that. But mostly stock if I'm having issues.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kennyidaho:
How can you expect anyone to answer this? I am sitting at work right now with an empty 100mbit connection. Do you think my average download speed is 1hr? Probably not.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Probably not you say? Did you check for sure? I can ask this because this is a 199MB file that is taking well over an hour to download on multiple internet connections i have used. I can download a 4gb movie on my computer in about 25 minutes. I understand that different internet connections have different download speeds, but on average, based on your internet, does this file not seem to take much longer than others?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kennyidaho:

Is there a stable? I noticed an RC with night lies
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Well that wouldn't make much sense considering I would still have to download the file from the original link which is not going to help my speeds out. And from what I hear everybody else has fine download speeds.

Strange, guess its just my home and work internet. Or I download when everybody else is...

Just flashed to the new nightly. Does anybody here use the 'reboot on lockscreen' toggle? Everytime I turn it off it defaults back to on after I back out into settings. I don't want people to easily be able to boot my phone into recovery if they find it. I know of coarse they can if they know how but I don't want it to be so accessible. I don't want reboot menu to show on the lock screen.

Also did we lose notification bar brightness slider?

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 PM ----------

The nightlies are stable enough for everyday use. There are a few bugs here and there but they mostly occur when trying to use some of the gimmiky extras like notification shortcuts. Althought I beleive they do have a stable release on the basketbuild link with the nightlies. Its under the folder "release."
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazy_smokezalot:
SOMEONE please help i know its not just me but i keep getting aosp keyboard Fcing i know i need to use gapps 8/12 only but still nothing cleaned wipe and redownloaded rom and gapps still same issue can someone link me to the gapps i just wanna make sure. btw im trying to install the RC
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
No need to quote all that if your not referring or responding to my post. But I was having very similar issues when I was trying to install the "Midnight Gapps." I would just suggest full wipe with a clean install of the latest Nightly and Gapps. I would get the gapps from this page.

if it is still not working, download the touchpal.apk and put it on your SD card. When the phone boots navigate to your file browser and install the touchpal keyboard. then you will have a working keyboard and you can go in, delete the googlekeyboard.apk through titanium backup, and then reinstall that keyboard through the play store.

Honestly though, TouchPalX is way better than any keyboard I have used, much better than stock google keyboard. I would stick with that one and just uninstall the google keyboard to stop getting FCs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazy_smokezalot:
but i got the gapps from the op and noticed it was for 4.3 not 4.2.2 so whats the deal with that was that link an accident and i had previously had installed 9/28 nightly but i couldnt hear nor the other person could hear me on the phone! weird idk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jharris0221:
yeah, I'm having the exact same issue. Seems to be from the Sept 25th nightly onwards. Any fix coming?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
I was having similar issues but i thought it was due to the volume mod i flashed. This rom is running android 4.3. The gapps you had for version 4.3 are the ones you need. You might be having issues because you are installing the wrong version because when i was installing 3rd party gapps was when i was having issues too.

I have not had that issue but I am not using the stock trebuchet launcher. I use ADW launcher and never seem to have an issue when transitioning to the home screen.

I've seen the same behavior on my setup. I always wipe cache/dalvik and format system prior to flashing to avoid stuff like this, but nothing seems to help.

It's pretty infrequent, but a little annoying anyway.

Its funny you say that becaut came to this forum to see if anybody had any suggestions for me. I have tried just about any volume mod or hack I can find. I have flashed a few from this thread... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293133&highlight=call and I have also tried following instructions from a different site to do it manually but the correct files are not in my system/etc folder so I think it may have been for stock roms only?

I just recently got the OBEX case and its great other than the fact that I can barly hear the person on the other end of the phone. I have to boost call volume or I just waisted 80 bucks on a case. I used to use volume+ I cant believe they make it this hard to edit now...

Any body have any ideas?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] OneNutShort:
To my knowledge wallet nfc payment doesn't work on any Verizon phones unless it is hacked on by changing your build.prop. The recent update to the wallet app on the play store only allows for money transfer, Google Offers, and loyalty programs.

Is there anyway to tell it has been updated other than installing the rom and trying out a custom kernel? I don't want to be stuck on a rom without custom kernels. Since the DEVs did not break it on purpose would they add it to the new change log when its fixed?

Getting phone FCS on 10/28 anyone else
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
10/28 is working great for me.

However, I did an extra clean install. Formatted the whole internal storage installed 10/28 nightly and new download of gapps (although I don't think it has changed.) Previously, I was having FCs with clock and keyboard but now, on this nightly, I have no issues with any of those apps or the phone app. Also Chronic Kernel is working as far as I can tell. CPU speed anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrtruckincowboy:
Yeah clean install did the trick.. But the sliding in notification brightness doesn't work still in this rom .. Mmm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Seems like it breaks after reboot. If you toggle it off then back on it will work until you reboot your phone again.

Its a pain but a trick I used when this was happening with notification toggles is to set an invisible icon on the homescreen that takes you straight to display settings. You could even go one step further and use tasker to make a toggle for that setting, but I am not very good with tasker.

I know that doesn't fix the problem but it at least makes it a bit easier to get your settings back on after a reboot.

I tried a fresh install from a wipe, this worked for a day then phone went back to FCing. Whats the deal?!??!

Turn PAC in Black OFF. The force close finally happened after i set up my settings. I re did it all, come to find out i think PAC in BLACK is breaking it. Just keep it off till the next nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jharris0221:
Exactly the problem! I got in to PAC in Black and instant FCs. Turn it off, immediately stops. Reproduce able, no reboot needed. Thanks man! This was driving me nuts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ookees:
Just an FYI for PAC users. I am on 10/28 and I updated my radio to MJ7, I was on MDK. It works and so far the only issue I see is my WiFi speeds are now terrible. LTE is still the same in this location. Must not be AWS here. I haven't found any audio issues. Haven't been able to test BT yet.

Usually from past experience I found kernels to be the fix/culprit regarding bad WiFi speeds. I am on the stock PAC kernel now.

I am going to update to 10/30 right now and test again.

Update: 10/30 seemed to improve the bandwidth from the AC router, tolerable but not where it should be. Upload speeds were better than the downloads. Also tried with an N router and it was terrible. Barely broke 2Mbps down. Up was better.

Hopefully there will be a fix in PAC for this.

Anyone know of a good kernel I can test with PAC?

Update 2: After subsequent reboots the WiFi speeds improved. Not sure what happened. Two different networks two different routers when tested earlier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Ive been using Chronic Kernel.

Also wanted to let everybody know, I am on 10/30 and PAC-in-Black is not causing force closes anymore. The roms seems to be running flawlessly with chronic kernel. I have not had any force closes yet been running for 30 mins.

Running the latest Nightly the bluetooth button in the settings menu doesn't work, but the quick settings button and the button inside of the bluetooth settings itself work fine. Anyone else seen this? Basically it just turns on and off, but doesn't actually turn on and off bluetooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrw1215:
I've flashed this ROM a couple of times in the past (but I generally always default back to AOKP), and I may be looking to jump back to PAC. I'm curious, though, is there any way to turn off the little "pac-man" stuff that will appear? For instance, if I remember right, when you reboot or shut down, you see some kind of little pac-man logo, or something. No offense to the ROM dev, or anything, I just really like things that stick to modified stock Android, and little things like that just sort of bug me.

Anyone having issues with the new hangouts app? Anytime a video call comes in or if I try initiating one the app crashes. Also having issue with SwiftKey where if I correct an incorrect word in any app it crashes the app. That's been happening for a week or so on every nightly I flashed. I'm on 11/2 with chronic kernel. The keyboard issue happened before chronic so not sure what's going on. Luckily I don't video call a lot so I can live with it.

I'm also using new Google launcher and search and those are working flawlessly as long as you have the search patch installed.

"Recent Apps" list takes forever to appear

I've been using this rom for a couple months now, and I love it. I use elements from all three component roms, and I'm amazed by the new options whenever I update.

The one problem I've encountered is the "recent apps" list: it takes a full 4-5 seconds to appear. I have timed it. Much slower than any other device I've got, including my first-gen Galaxy Tab and my old GS1 running CM10.1. Is there any way to reduce the time it takes for the list to appear? I've experimented a bit with settings,but nothing seems to make much of a difference. Currently I'll hold down the home button until I feel the haptic bump, then basically go make a sandwich.
