I dirty flashed 12/20 this morning, stock kernel, and also could not make calls. Have been on stock kernel all along, so I don't believe your calling issue was from dirty flashing over KT kernel. I reloaded my 12/19 (early) nandroid, and all is well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I have had issues with calls on 12/20 as well. Constant FC's in com.android.phone. i'm 100% stock so I think the issue is in the 12/20 build. i finally reverted back to 12/18 (that is my last nandroid). Think I'll stay put there for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] meirg:
Works great, thanks! Haven't experienced a single bug. When do you think it will go official?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 760hacker:
Having this same problem and I clean flashed 12/20, not sure why its borked. Gonna flash ktoonzes kernel and pray it fixes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lx1907:
Had the issue with color distortion upon screen wake up as previously mentioned. Was dirty flash from 12/19 to 12/19.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
Same issue here, stock kernel on 12/20.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Just flashed 12/21 a short time ago. So far no FC's in the phone. The color distortion is still present, thought. For me the work around is to move the brightness slider the the right of center and the distortion is gone.

GPS lock is also working again. Now if Cyanogenmod could fix the issue with orientation when stationary the compass would be golden. Not holding my breath for that one, it has been broken since CM11 came out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CyberZion:
The last few builds my Dailer has been locking up and FCing. Updating to today's build to see if it's doing any better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
So I have been monitoring something that's been broken on CM12 for the past 3 or 4 builds...

The main reason I use CM is because of Privacy Guard. I expect few use it, but PG is an awesome way to limit/monitor which permissions a particular app requests. For example, Barcode Scanner should have access to my camera, so I select ALLOWED. Otoh, that app has absolutely no reason to Read my Contacts list, so I either IGNORE or ALWAYS ASK (actually I never select Ignore because poorly written apps break). Anyway.... I went through all my apps, selected ALLOWED/IGNORE/ALWAYS ASK for each one. As it turns out, CM12 forgets most settings, so the feature is broken.

Question: Is there a setting I could back up so my PG preferences could be restored on each flash/reboot?

* I know PG works, because I can ALWAYS ASK for location on my weather app and I get a popup requesting location...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Worked fine for me today
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igorneumann:
Any guidance on how to get stock GPE kernel?

Tried to dirty flash it over stock kernel as advised previously but Cm overwritten its kernel.

Also tried to install the 2nd 1219 build that was said to have stock kernel but it also said "CM" at the kernel.

Any flashable zip around? Any way to dirty flash without replacing its kernel? (TWRP 2.7 here)

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zman2107:
Flash kernel after you nightly

---------- Post added at 03:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

If you use a root file explorer go to cm updater and put the kernel you want in the flash after update folder and it will do it for you when you use the cm updates
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] djhotpocket:
Is anyone having BT issues with the past few builds? I'm on 12/21 build and BT works great with my LG G Watch but when I'm paired to my 2013 Honda Civic I get Bluetooth share has stopped working pop ups. Any thoughts? It worked fine on past few builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gosimer4:
Maybe.........backup your Rom, flash the nightly with the gpe kernel, use flashify to backup kernel, restore your Rom, then restore gpe kernel over it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Well the gpe kernel probably won't work on an aosp ROM. I know the aosp one won't work for gpe ROM...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igorneumann:
That should work

Thanks, never used Flashify but it Makes sense (sounds like it would work).

Just need to find a Nightly with GPE... will stay tuned here for another "Cherry Pick".

Best regards,

Igor

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

There are many comments here about this ROM working with Stock kernel (and even some builds that came out with it) so... it should work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
The gpe kernel will only work with the gpe ROM. This is aosp ..not gpe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
Currently on the 12/21 build. The only issue I've run into is auto-rotate sometimes not working. I did drop my phone yesterday though - hopefully it's a ROM issue and not hardware damage...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
Clean 12/22 still has force closes after gaps flash?

WTH?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Which gapps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rajones19:
I am pretty sure that all those comments about 'stock' kernel refer to the kernel that came packaged with the ROM. So from that standpoint, every build came with the 'stock' kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
The 11/09 release.. Not from PA or anything like that. (gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip)

FYI guys Ktoons just updated their kernel today.

Just checked out PA Gapps and they are much more current. Stupid question I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Weird. Mine installed no problem. Same gapps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMMORTALKING69:
I'm on 12/20 lost my auto rotate..... No drop here lol.

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

12/22 rotate working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lx1907:
Any other feedback from 12/22 build? Is the screen color issue there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
I am on clean 12/22 no screen color issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Been having an issue the last few nightlies with WiFi. It works fine just doesn't always auto connect when I am in range of my preferred network. Anyone else seeing this?

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ----------

Just flashed 12/22. Color issue persists. Setting the brightness to the right of center and it works for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
My wifi has been perfect. Every night I backup my nandroids to my server (1.2gb) and they always transfer without issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lx1907:
No wifi issues for me.

Just flashed 12/22 dirty from 12/19.. doesn't seem to have the color issue. I did have it with 12/21 (i think) so i reverted back to 12/19 yesterday.

Is it me or does the notification sounds come out a bit distorted on highest volume?

*** edit: spoke too soon.. Hit color issue dirty flash 12/22
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gunnermike:
Anyone get Gear Fit Manager working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
I was wrong on very low brightness there is color issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
There are still a slew of apps that I can't successfully install. I'm assuming this is a lollipop compatibility issue. Other than that (and Netflix >.<) this ROM is treating me damn well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 1BigLoser2:
Yes.

Happened to me when I installed the new KToonez kernel. Went back to Allucard and all is good...

????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Other than the netflix issue I haven't had a problem with any apps. Which apps are you trying and are you saying you can't install from Play Store like play store says not compatible? Or when you install the apk device installer says unsuccessful?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Flashed 12/23 this morning. The color issue seems to be fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
These are apps that I'm sideloading. Either through the Amazon Appstore, Humblebundle, Aptoide :angel:

I'll be doing a clean flash over the holiday. Hopefully that fixes things!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lx1907:
Clockworkmod

I am having a weird issue with the nandroid backups using Clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.7 . I've made a backup of 12/19 build last night, dirty flashed 12/22. When tried to revert back to it, restore went successfully but upon reboot phone kept booting into recovery and never made it to the OS. Ended up clean flashing 12/19 and reconfigure everything. I typically reboot to recovery and do the nandroids to external SDcard for backups. This worked well in CM11.

Anyone with similar issue or recommendations?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Looks like I was mistaken. Color issue persists.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
I'm pretty sure I remember having something like this. I've never gotten my phone to write system files in recovery from extSD it usually won't boot. Usually whenever I revert to a backup, they're all stored on extSD for me, in TWRP I usually restore data only or after restoring the full image I dirty flash the same ROM zips over it. So if I revert back to 12/19 backup then I dirty flash 12/19 again on top of it just to make sure the system wrote correctly. Worth a shot for you - or try to switch to TWRP.

Well there's your problem, Amazon Appstore. lol, No but I have some apps from Amazon and Aptoide working fine. I would test something specific from Aptoide for you if you send me the link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lx1907:
Thanks, I actually tried to restore backup of 12/19 then dirty flash 12/19 build and GAPPS, but the system came up with all sorts of FCs. I'll either try to free up the internal storage to have enough room for backup or switch to TWRP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
Same here, color issue still present
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igorneumann:
And that was why I couldn't find it.

It sounds so oubious now, I feel dumb.

Thank you, and Happy Holidays!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Yes, stock is ambiguous and with AOSP builds it typically means the kernel included in the rom. However, there was a note regarding GPE kernel which I'm still confused about. But I think there were just some cherry picks from GPE included in the Rom kernel.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
Hmm... I believe the last app from Aptoide that failed for me was the latest version of Ultimate Guitar Tabs. Mind giving that one a try? (I believe I'm not supposed to directly link to that kind of thing here.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
True, you can pm links. But app ultimate guitar tabs from ultimate guitar. Com installed fine from aptoide for me. I'm currently running 12-22 nightly with include cm kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
curious how you set that up, mind sharing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
I have a lacie harddrive connected to my router @ 192.168.1.100. I use File Manager to connect to it via Lan Connection. I then just copy a backup from my sd card to a folder on the lacie drive. Takes 5 or 10 minutes. I keep 3 or 4 nandroids on my sdcard and a whole bunch on the lacie. I've had to restore from nandroids a few times, but they've always been on my sdcard. I've only had to restore from my lacie once, but it worked nicely.

Evidently I'm a nandroiding fool. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dscblu:
Do you guys think it would be OK to dirty flash today's update over the12/12 build? I broke my screen on the 12th so it was my last update flashed until I replaced the LCD today
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Should be fine. Make a nandroid first, just in case you need to go back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
ahh pretty simple. thought you might have some crazy script that did the moving and everything. i have a 18TB NAS disk, maybe I should start doing this too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brasewel:
I honestly suggest you upgrade to TWRP. I've had a lot of issues with CWM when flashing this ROM and it has been smooth so far after I changed. CWM is no longer updated as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Been running 12/23 since it came out and I have noticed a couple things.

Last night I received a group text. Two people included in it responded before I viewed it. One looked like a regular text and the other had a download button in it. When I viewed the sender's message and touched download my GS4 froze and I had to force a restart. After restart one recipient disappeared and was now in the group message and the other was included and also had a separate reply. Haven't been able to repeat it.

The color issue returned.

And I sometimes will not auto connect to my home WiFi. I haven't been able to find a pattern to easily repeat this. I discovered the WiFi issue when viewing my data usage. I have spike on the date/time of a couple ROM downloads. I always do this when on my WiFi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
I have been running the 12/25 build for a couple hours now and I still have yet to see a color issue. As for the group text issue I have no idea.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] carcin:
Thank you devs for all your hard work! Only thing I would like to see is an Internet speed monitor in the status bar. I can use an app but i dislike the persistent notification. Anyone know of a flashable?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MustGoFast:
Anyone else notice some seemingly random slowdowns or other delayed actions.... I dind't notice anything on my last build 12/15, but am seeing them semi-frequently on 12/23.

I notice that things like the family guy game LAG HAARD pretty frequently. I've also seen that selecting call a location from google maps brings the dialer up and then clicking call leads to a good 2 or 3 second lag before the call screen changes and the call is placed. I've noticed a few other apps ranomdly slugging out as well....

Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I have seen this behavior as well but it has been present for the last two weeks or so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vanberge:
CM updater has a list now of nightlies... I wonder where it's pulling those from

Derp edit: they are cm11 nightlies
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MustGoFast:
Dang... any work arounds?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I haven't found any. I have just learned to live with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Just experienced a WiFi would not connect issue. Had to cycle airplane mode before it would connect.

Edit:

Been thinking about this issue and may be on to something. When I experience this it always seems to be after a long period of inactivity (device asleep/in deep sleep). I am noticing it more often in the morning or after coming in from work. This is when the device has been idle for an extended period and gone to sleep.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Been trying to use latest PA gapps without success. Could not flash. Keep getting error Message. What gapps do you reccomend for CM 12?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Many are using the PA Gapps for Lollipop. There is an Alpha and a Beta version out (I used the Alpha). Is it possible you have a bad download?

Hey guys, could one of you with working GPS send me their gps.config file? I'm on commotio and my GPS will not work, no matter what I try. I'm getting ready to rip out my hair over it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] freakyguy88:
Common issue with this device on custom roms, never seen a fix for it, but i read that a different gps.conf file may work but ive never found one.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Triscuit:
Thank you! Still doesn't work though, so I flashed euroskank! I can't live without my GPS right now as I just moved to a new area and need it daily to get around. I guess I'll just have to wait until they figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Alxoom33:
Found out problem. PA gapps can only be flashed over pa gapps. Wiped System and flashed 12/27 nightly and stock PA gapps 12/25 and booted flawlessly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
I think euroskank reverted back to kk GPS blobs. That's in the list on the d/l page. I think that's why GPS works on this ROM and no others
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Triscuit:
Thanks, that's really good to know, I'll let the devs of vanir know about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
Just clean flashed 12/28. KT's kernel flashed smoothly after booting into the ROM once beforehand. Only issue I've run into so far is on the recent apps window I have a message up top that reads "Couldn't add widget" instead of the Google search bar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Also on 12/28. Only issue I see so far s the "color issue" when waking from sleep. Still setting brightness to the right of center to workaround it.

I may have asked this previously but didn't see an answer. When flashing the latest nightly before reboot I have to fix root. Anyone know the fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
No widget issue for you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
None that I've seen. How do you reproduce your issue? Maybe I can duplicate your steps and see if I can reproduce it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
Full wipe through TWRP 2.7.1.0

Flash latest nightly

Flash gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip

Boot

Reboot to recovery > Flash KT's latest

Boot

I plan to try another full wipe with updated TWRP and PA Gapps tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Hmmmm......

I use CWM instead of TWRP and the stock kernel. Quit using KT's so I could keep in line with the OP when reporting issues (stock set-up and link logcats when needed).

The only other issue I was having was WiFi would sometimes not auto-connect to my home WiFi when in range. I was using the NG6 modem. I flashed the NK1 yesterday and am gonna test for a couple days and see if a different modem helps.

I had similar issues on CM11 with the MK2 modem and going to NC5 fixed it, so we'll see.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brasewel:
GPS doesn't work for me as well which is annoying. Ever since I moved to 5.0, I don't get any locks. I've tried all the different variations of GApps to no success.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Triscuit:
GPS is working great on euroskanks builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
GPS lock is not a function of a Gapps package, it is a function of the ROM. Since Gapps are written by Google it also shouldn't matter which is used (but we all may know differently). The usual method to get GPS working when all else fails is to flash something with known working GPS (such as a TW ROM) and then flash Euro's build after. I keep a nandroid of the stock MDK for that purpose.

That said, for me anyway, GPS works as "expected" on CM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
I'm excited to say that after a hard reset, everything is working! I'm now on the 12/28 build with KT's latest and the most recent PA Gapps package. I haven't come across a bug since I flashed this morning. I think I'll be staying on this build for a while.

EDIT: I've come across several apps that I'm still unable to sideload. These have been purchased through the Amazon App Store and fail to install: Threes, Hitman Go, Guardians of the Galaxy, Orbital. It's really bizarre. Sometimes I'll actually be able to install the apps but after a reboot they'll disappear and I'll be unable to reinstall them. Also, the Amazon App Store shows that they are still installed but I'm unable to launch them through the market. Good thing they're just games. Nothing important.

EDITEDIT: Also, more importantly, Netflix works!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ribenabob:
Re: fix root

Sounds like you are using CWM. The last several versions of TWRP have not had this issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Yes, CWM 6.0.5.0. Issue appeared when I went from CM11 to CM12.

I guess, for now anyway, there is no fix until maybe the nightlies become official.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ribenabob:
Just out of curiosity, have you tried ignoring the fix root option and just reboot? It might not actually need it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
Whenever I clean flash the latest Euro builds they boot up fine and then as soon as I flash GAPPS.. I get a million force closes that never stop.

Only thing I can do is flash Ktoonz Kernel and re flash GAPPS.

Has anyone asked why there isn't a remapping option for the back key? I love being able to hold back and use it as a last app key.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oreizinho:
is there portuguese language?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wcouri:
After I updated TWRP I stopped experiencing the FC's after flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Loop4zil:
I have the same problem. When I flash a nightly (clean or dirty) without flashing a KT kernel I get all sorts of GAPPS related FCs. Even if I don't flash GAPPS. This makes zero sense to me.

I am using CWM Touch as my custom recovery. Which custom recovery are you using?

I have seen a post or two saying that the issue was solved by updating to the latest TWPR.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Use twrp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Loop4zil:
I guess that is the logical course....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Yes. Never issues with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
Hey guys..

This must be it... It must be the recovery.

I am on a old version of TWRP.

To upgrade can I simply download the latest version?

Or do I need a special loki version.

I am on TWRP 2.5.0.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
Arw there any screen shots of this ROM? Im curious about what customizations have been added.

Im still on 4.4.4 and am looking for certain features in 5.0 like back button / kill app, clear recents, status bar tweaks, etc (Xposed-typed mods).

I know Xposed is not supported by 5.0, but am hoping that a ROM like this might have some of the tweaks built-in.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ecossais:
Download Flashify from the Play Store and install TWRP 2.8.3.0 from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
Looks like I have to download and install the SuperSU binary because the default CM12 SuperUser built in app will not give me full privileges to Flashify.

Trying this now!

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] .Ejekt:
Meh. After my last reboot I started getting the screen tint bug again. Still on 12/28. Has this been fixed yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Loop4zil:
Using the latest TWRP worked for me. CWM Touch breaks the CM kernel somehow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gonzlobo:
Lots of power button options with today's build... no screen capture option, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] musicfreak190:
Wow updated to the latest TWRP... Didn't try the stock kernel yet.. but the whole phone is running better.

Not sure how a recovery would have done this.. I also use SuperSU now instead of the default.
