so is the cm11 build working ?

what is with sdcard, bt or notification light
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
Indeed this works, thanks.

I believe that the problem is the lack of the feature ""sprint_roaming_enhancements_feature"" (this is the exact name on the stock framework) on most non sprint ROMs (including the stock C-spire one, that has that setting disabled at build time).

w/o that feature the "allow GSM data" settings is missing and, depending on the previous configuration, GSM data are disallowed, no matter if the "[mobile] data enabled" is checked or not.

Yes it works, External SD works, notification are working, BT untested, yet.

BTW is a preliminary build and most of the usual CM customization are still missing.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ACiD GRiM:
I'm finding that there is something amiss with the dnsmasq binary when tethering as of the Nov 29th build. If I run it with the exact same options manually from shell, I get the same results: Making a DNS query is responded with "REFUSED". However, if I start it with the -d debug option, queries go through just fine.

I happen to have a linux chroot on my phone, and if I run the dnsmasq binary from there with the same options, I am able to make proper DNS requests either with -k or as a background resolver daemon.

The version packaged with cyanogenmod 10.2 seems to be 2.51, and the version from my fedora chroot is 2.66. Also the compile time options in the CM version are missing IDN DHCPv6 ipset and auth options. I'm compiling my own statically linked dnsmasq to try making my own update.zip, however I thought I'd bring this to your attention.

After some further testing, this appears to only be the case when I tether over my VPN that I was mentioning earlier, but since I've typed this up I'll post it if anyone else is running into similar behavior.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
so is the art runtime in the cm11 build working with our photon q ?

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] rbeavers:
Got it turned on, and after 1st install it takes 10x longer to "update apps"

There is a lot of files in dalvik-cache dir though..?...?

Deleted cache files, had to reboot to "update apps" so if art is working it's storing some of its files in dalvik-cache.....

Will try a clean install, to see what happens.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Distorted tone generator sound (like volume change beep) that happens for the first playback after the audio device has been suspended is one of the reasons why I still hesitate to start the unofficial nightly cm-11.0 builds. I'd like to have this fixed first...

Another reason is that most of the CM features are still in the process of being re-implemented for 4.4 and there's still a lot of good stuff missing. But the process is accelerating :).

Btw., ART seems to work fine for me. You just have to make sure to use ART compatible gapps. I'm using the package prepared by David - http://d-h.st/mDt . Indeed, the compilation of ART executable files takes longer then Dalvik executable files, you just have to be patient during the first boot after a system update when using ART runtime.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
There are still some incompatible apps. But not important.

Do you have issues with storage where some apps fail to write external sdcard? I know things changed in 4.4 because of more fine grained security, and apps, generaly, shouldn't have unrestricted ability to read or write/delete data that does not belong to them.

But when file managers fail to accomplish the task they are designed to do it just sucks. Ie., CMFM on some occasions needs root access to delete a plain file from ext. sd, root explorer (latest version) sometimes failes to copy/move/delete claiming possibly insufficent space (more than enough space is available), total commander silently fails to delete some files or copy/move to other location, titanium backup (tried latest on play store today) can't backup claiming insuffiecient storage space...

I've made some modifications to platform permissions loosening them by allowing media rw for write external storage but I'm not happy with it (not sure if it would cause issues in the future or how much of a major security risk this is).

Basically, I am curious if those are all application issues and the corresponding apps should be updated for 4.4, nothing can be done about it, or possibly misconfigured operating system?

Thank you in advance :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ACiD GRiM:
Is anyone else having trouble saving using the external SD option? All apps, including cmupdater that download can't save to SD, and most file managers, except for the cyanogen file manager (in non root mode) can't make new folders or files.

It appears the ownership for the /storage/sdcard1 is listed as root.sdcard_rw 775, as well as sub-directories. I believe these should be owned by system with sdcard_rw, however it seems like something more might be amiss I have full external sd access when I turn off external apps/media. this is 12/4 build

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
There are also two calendars on my device. The old one with the green bar on the top and a new with a blue top bar. The old seems to come with the build and the new one from the Google apps.

On boot a clock crash occured the first two boots. Maybe this is because of the two clock applications which also exist on my device.

The rest works very good. The UI ist fast and very smooth. I like it! :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
Yes, both clock and calendar are from gapps. You can disable them in app settings: find the one that crashes when opening alarms and disable it (or delete (by name)).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Which gapps are you guys using?

I've heard "BaNkS" is the best... mainly because they're are dead simple, AFAIK it's just the core stuff needed. Anything else you want, add it yourself - so closest to actual Google gapps.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
ok i have ran into a really really drastic problem. i was trying to install an app, it would get to 95% then say insufficient space even though i have 3.2gb free of internal space and 11gb of sd card space. so i restarted my phone thing that would fix the issue. but now it wont go passed the warning bootloader unlocked screen. and i went into recovery completely wiped(which only does alittle bit then say i may need to restart recovery to run /dat) so i tried reinstalling both the 8/5 version and downloaded the 8/6 version and both wont go past the bootloader warning screen. but i can go and flash the carbon rom and boot up with no issues. i really need this fixed i realy like this rom but this is a major malfuntion please help.

Edit:

Nevermind i got it fixed now. if it happens to anyone else just boot into recovery wipe everything then go back and wipe dalvik, cache, data, everything but external sd. then flash another rom let it completely boot up, all the way to the home screen. then reboot into recovery and wipe everything again like the steps above then install the 10.2 build and it should be all gravy again. this really gave me a sever scare lol but good to go know

Edit 2:

again editing this post because it locked my phone up at typing in my gmail. im tired of ****ing with this im just gonna go back to carbon where i know it works booting up and everythying, might come back to this rom when its a solid work. i dont understand why this is happening when it worked excellent the first time and was good til restart
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
Some of the recent changes in the kernel causes freeze and then a full reboot. You could try to flash an earlier kernel which might help (August 4 kernel should work).

So I'm even not sure if cm10.2 will be continued.

cm10.2 is stable for me so it's not that bad.

I just wanted to notice that no new builds for cm10.2 are coming.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
In the attachment a little thing that can help some users.

Given the inability of current Photon's CM ROM to deal nicely with the SIM contacts, some services that need to read your own telephone number from the sim can not work on CM ROMs.

This is not a solution, just a workaround: you can set your own phone number and then it can be read systemwide. The number is not really written on the SIM, so the process must be repeated (if needed) after each reboot.

Better than nothing, I believe. :)

You must copy the apk in the /system/app directory to get it working.

For the record the apk is taken from the Photon 4G Gingerbread ROM and resigned with the CM signature to get it working here.

It's tested on CM10.2, but should work in any cyanogen release.

Once the SIM bug will be fixed, the app should be able to edit/set the real field on your SIM, very useful for those who have that field blank (say vodafone.it in Italy), or for the people who changed provider keeping his number, and having the wrong number stored on the SIM.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] tobby88:
Did anybody try to use Wifi-channels 12/13/14?

In Europe its allowed to use 12/13. But my Photon Q doesn't detect any wireless networks on channels 12 and 13. Only up to 11.

In the stock-rom 12/13 are working fine... But it isn't working on CM10.1 skrillax nightly, CM10.1.3 Stable, CM10.2 skrillax nightly and CM10.2 official nightly.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] fatihx:
in lastest cm11 nightly wifi channel is selectable.

I want to also report another problem with latest cm11 nightly; it can connect to wpa2 without problem but wpa doesn't connect.it stays as saved for a while then i become error "association rejected".
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
In unofficial CM 10.2 builds made by Skrilax's buildbot, you can specify your SIM id and your phone number via persist.radio.iccid and persist.radio.msisdn properties (workaround for the failing SIM I/O requests bug we were not able to fix so far). As they are persistent properties, it sticks after reboot and also after ROM update (unless you do data wipe).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
Good to know, thanks.

As usual two solution for a problem (two workarounds in our case) are always a nice think to have.

Mine would be quick to have handy when the ROM is replaced, and is better suited for a one time usage (often the number is required only during the first access to a service), the other way, is less immediate, especially for the users who change sim often, but is surely better when the number must be available on every reboot.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] tobby88:
What do you mean by "wifi channel is selectable"?

On my Photon Q it doesn't show any wifi network on channels 12 or 13. Wifi-region-code is set to "Germany". Changing it to others doesn't change anything, still no networks on 12/13 in CM. Only in Stock.

//EDIT: leflow contacted me via PM. He has not enough rights to post in this section but he is experiencing the same problem. No wifi on channels 12/13 in CM. Sometimes networks show up, but it's not possible to connect.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
@ tobby88:

what is your wlan encryption ?

change it to wpa2, then it should work better. my photon q couldnt even connect to my wifi network with wep or wpa1 encryption.

@ Skrilax or some other dev:

shouldnt we make a cyanogenmod 11 thread, or at least a topic where we can discuss bugs and problems from cm11 ? because the cm10.2 release should be stable enough

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2558491 seems like a fine thread for cm11 nightlies discussion to me at this moment.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Not yet. There's no way for this workaround to be accepted by CM and be present in official CM nightlies.

The failure of SIM I/O requests is a major bug that has to be fixed.

Unfortunately, I still have no idea what's the culprit in this case. Hell, even the SIM toolkit works fine, yet all the SIM I/O requests made to moto RIL return REQUEST_NOT_SUPPORTED...

As long as we won't start parallel unofficial cm11 builds for Photon Q along the official cm11 nightlies, this workaround won't be available.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
I think it's too early at this point to roll out own unofficial builds, given that many of the CM features are still absent. I'm at some point planning them to be made, for having external sdcard as primary storage.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Ok, so server raid has crashed (caught early enough) and is recovering for the next 7 hours (that's right, 1 TB of stuff and bloat), so I can schedule a build after recovery finishes (should go fine).
