Yes, I do, but I can't live without it and cannot test any other keyboard, neither stock, it is stupid and boring.
[HTC One S] ThomasHunter:
Hey guys, just stopping by. I don't want to let my One S gather too much dust, so I was planning on giving it a quick M8 upgrade.

But from what I gather here, the M-builds are still buggier than the nightlies? I'm not going to use mine as a daily driver, but I'd like it stable-ish as a backup phone.

Could anyone let me know how M8 performs, if anyone is going to flash, or can someone vouch for the latest nightly?
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Nothing wrong with latest nightly that isn't wrong with every other build... I'd use it
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Someone mentioned that he deleted theme engine apps... If you tested it, do you have any reboots without theme apks?
[HTC One S] maluus:
Yeah it continues. Last ones I remember to be stable were the 02 and 03 july 2014 nightlies. Removed theme apps and used them without problems for at least 2 days. Now I m checking nightlies and after first reboot switching to 02/07 one :D
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
I wonder if it's just the stock theme...I have used Thyrus Dark UI and a few Android L free themes, and I haven't had any resets for several days...I really only get 1-2 a week and I blame Swiftkey, because it always seems to be when typing in hangouts...I go back to AOSP keypad (or Android L) and way more free memory and no stutters or lockups.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Hm, I will try with older (early v4) of SwiftKey, I didn't have any reboots with it...
[HTC One S] superbalza:
battery life

is there any battery life improvement from M7? i'm planning to flash the M8 release, or maybe any nightly... because the M7 life battery drain was unacceptable...
[HTC One S] macawesomeofficial:
I've just flashed the M8 version and now I can't enter the settings anymore. Everytime I press on the settings icon I get a notification that the settings have been forced close. Does anyone else experience this?
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Seen that reported on other devices. Avoid M builds... They are untested, cherry picked messes. Nightlies have plenty of testers and feedback right here

[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Spirit FM used to work...try out the free mono version on xda. Oh, and what Rapier said...
[HTC One S] Forage:
An update on this subject after 2 weeks of field testing. Settings FD to 2 made the RILJ wakelocks drop from 3500+ to 300+ during a single cycle from a full battery to an empty one. While battery use on M7 is still higher compared to stock, changing just this setting was already a big improvement. Let's see what M8 is going to bring.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Any data on setting to 0? I usually use 0, though default stock I believe uses 2. I've never considered the RILJ wakelocks might be related, so maybe I'll start using 2 as well.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
I have activated Quiet hours option but Whatsapp app ignore this setting :D may anyone else confirm this?
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Whatsapp seems to be a bad citizen in the android ecosystem...non standard and always behind. They probably directly access the audio, bypassing the OS.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Viber is way worse than Whatsapp for me... I like simple things...
[HTC One S] macawesomeofficial:
That fixed it. Thanks a lot!
[HTC One S] JonnyX93:
Where can I switch the FD setting?
[HTC One S] Forage:
With M8 it seemed notifications of incoming messages got delayed when having FD set on 2, so I switched back to 1. This, however, made RILJ spike again and the data connection (when browsing) started dropping again.

I haven't tested 0, since that would disable FD as far as I know. My network supports it so even though nobody can tell what 2 does, I assume it at least keeps using FD. I can, however, take 0 for a spin, maybe it increases battery life even more.

Change ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule to either 0, 1 or 2 in /system/build.prop

I used the app ES File Explorer with root access to do this, followed by a reboot.
[HTC One S] maluus:
After 3 days of usage I observed that actually I m not experiencing phone reboots anymore but instead ui reboots. when I take out the phone from my pocket it asks for pin code as if it rebooted but after the pin entry I can see that background apps still running which indicates that it's the ui that rebooted not the entire phone.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Are you sure that is everything alright with your service reception? Because if you have pin menu, it can be that is service dropped and ask you for pin when come back...
[HTC One S] m1schi:
Never had any problems before, but I'm using some nightly around 7th July and I'm also experiencing UI reboots. Also changing the background results in a reboot of the UI, which will only set the background to the default one.
[HTC One S] desuzax1:
Setting won´t work

after update yesterday, Setting is no more accessible!! there crash!
[HTC One S] maluus:
Well it also asks for pin after the ui reboot which is caused by a wallpaper change. moreover I don't have reception problems. There is something wrong with the theme engine surely. because it asks for pin after the change of the wallpaper and it locks up during ui reboot if I try to set a live wallpaper etc. I already can't understand why would it reboot the ui just for a simple wallpeper change :D
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
0710 nightly is not flashable... I downloaded file 3 times so it is not bad download...
[HTC One S] frantisek.nesveda:
There is a problem with the latest nightly caused by this commit, which has been since reverted and today's nightly should be okay. Or, if you can't wait, you can modify the updater script in the 0710 nightly and remove lines 5 - 11 (starting with "mount..." and ending with "unmount...") and then flash again.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
I reverted it but someone must approve it :angel:
[HTC One S] frantisek.nesveda:
I thought it was already reverted and approved here? And then replaced with another, better implementation of the same idea which should work here?
[HTC One S] noomarsil:
Does it have the newest theme chooser? I want to instal Android L theme for CM11.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
That's a joke right? This IS the official CM11. OF COURSE it has the new Theme Engine, it's a CM11 feature.

Heads up notifications have some conflict with capacitive buttons...
[HTC One S] noomarsil:
Yeah, you are so cool but unlike you I have my own life and I dont spend all my time on reading this topic or everyday updating this CM versions. When I have question, even noob, Im asking, because, there are a lot of very clever guys here who knows about android and other stuff almost everything. And its so surprising that Google Dialer is very useful tool for me, especially in my work, when Im looking for companys' phone numbers. But haters gonna hate, nothing new, I dont even care.

New Trebuchet looks really nice but why drawer dont have 5 rows and 4 columns like it used to, now using it is a bit unconfortable.
[HTC One S] Lucaman89:
Is it me, or trebuchet has a little problem?

I have 4 directory on my home screen ( google, games, multimedia and internet)

When i reboot the device, some app "exit" from the directory and return to the app drawer, so i have to manually re-add them to their directory, pretty annoying. Happens to you?
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Something is very wrong with Ondemand governor. Every time if I have heavier usage of phone, on example, running uTorrent, playing video or music and chatting, I get reboot on Ondemand governor. On interactive everything is just fine... I swear that it is related with few commits which Ethan merged before few months... [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION]
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
I've found it very stuttery since those commits were made and it was made default governor. Just use Interactive

Can you provide some logs/evidence? Is it a reboot back to the bootloader?
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
I will catch logs today when I came home.... Phone freeze for few seconds (up to 10) and it completly reboots, back phone to bootloader, waits a little longer than usual before CM bootanimation appears on screen....
[HTC One S] maluus:
An fstab related commit today. I would strongly suggest you to have a nandroid before flashing todays nightly if you are planning to do so :D
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Yeah...that's one to skip since it appears untested on Ville and not verified by Intervigil. Does anyone really use the CM recovery vs TWRP?

anyone tried todays yet?

[HTC One S] bassilap:
So I'm not sure how this happened, but I screwed up my WiFi.

Yesterday I made a TWRP backup, then played around the HD maximus rom. Then After restoring my TWRP backup, I noticed my wifi doesn't work. By not working, I mean when I turn it on through the settings, it slides on, looks like it's turning on, but if i ever go back into settings, it says off. If I turn it on through quick settings or what not, it just says on. In Settings > About > Status > it says my WiFi MAC is unavailable.

In recovery, if I delete Data and re-flash, it works. But as soon as I restore Data, it's not working again. I have an older TWRP backup of Data, if I restore it, my wifi works, but I don't want to restore the whole thing and lose my latest stuff.

So my question -- what folders/files from /data should I restore to get my wifi working? I tried /data/misc/wifi, but it didn't work. Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 01:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

So I'm gonna try restoring all of /data/misc /data/property /data/system and /data/tombstones -- those seem to look promising.

Will report on progress.
[HTC One S] Da9L:
What is the most stable version of this (non-nightly) ? Im using the 0715 version and my net acts up.. Running on low speed connections most of the time, and loses its connection completely all the time..

EDIT: No worries, found this site http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Ville_Info
[HTC One S] maluus:
A few posts back I had mentioned that what I, at first, thought as reboots was actually ui reboots. I did not have any actual reboots since I removed the theme related apks. I was making observations for that ui reboots but recently I had a conclusion that they were not ui reboots neither. I was having mobile data connection problems. after a time of usage (I m yet to find out conditions causing this) data traffic stops. Connection is there but no data is coming nor going. When I try the browser or other app using internet, it heavily tries to transfer some data without giving an error message about connection absence thinking a connection is availabe. I think after a certain amount of try the radio is being completely closed like when it goes into flight mode and then opens it again hence asks for the pin. in this case, since radio is completely shut down, voice calls is also not usable. (When the data is stuck voice calls still available until it shuts the radio down). I tried this with all three radios available (1.15, 1.20 and 1.35a) and results are the same which makes me think that this is rom related.
[HTC One S] bassilap:
So replacing those did not help and in fact on top of not fixing the wifi, it made things worse.

F it. Just restoring the older twrp data backup.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Hah, I asked you is this happening to you... Try to set fast dormancy to 0 in build.prop.

Hello. i have issue with ART. When I try to change form dalvik to ART, phone reboots, but after reboot davlik is set, not ART... How can I fix that issue?
[HTC One S] derkleinebroicher:
If you run the Xposed framework, then this is the reason, as they are not compatible. You then first have to uninstall the framework. Now you can switch to ART. BTW first boot takes a long time for rebuilding the runtime, so be patient.

The M8 release is perfect for me, no issue at all.
[HTC One S] Da9L:
Yep that was the one i ended up using too, and now after some time of using it, i can say that i too, dont have any issues. Its running very great!
[HTC One S] ohmyggg:
I've been having some issues with WiFi and network connectivity (similar to what was described a few posts above) on some of the recent nightlies, so I might switch back to M8 as well, or try out CM10.2.
[HTC One S] michaelh99:
fwiw, I had loads of connectivity and reboot issues with 10.2 as well as flaky gps/compass. Those are what made me finally give 11.x a shot.
[HTC One S] michaelh99:
Wow, I guess most people have moved on or CM11 is working perfectly?

Anyway, one other thing that I've found helps with stability, which I remembered from my Samsung days of trying ROMs every other day...

After installing the nightly, reboot and wait several minutes after the boot completes.

Perform a normal reboot one more time.

I haven't looked at the code to see what sort of startup operations CM performs (though it does go through the upgrading apps step after install) but I've installed 6-7 nightlies over the last month and when I've done this, CM has been more stable. When I've forgotten, it hasn't been so stable. But after a reboot (usually because of a crash of some kind) things get better.

Anecdotal, sure. Try it, see if it helps.
[HTC One S] Lucaman89:
Never heard of this. Why do you have to reboot? The system is always the same even after a reboot.
[HTC One S] :
Yeah, Cyanogenmod is quite okay at the moment, I would say.
[HTC One S] The Setlaz:
Hi guys,

I flashed the 23rd nightly containing a wlan supplicant start failure fix

I don't know if it's pure coincidence, but that's 2nd day I come back from work and don't have to reboot my HOS to connect to my WPA2 Wi-Fi at home !

Did anyone else tried ?
[HTC One S] michaelh99:
Maybe, maybe not. As I said I haven't trolled through the code.

the reason I mentioned this practice is that it's something that was often recommended on Samsung ROMS and i've found that a problem nightly frequently become a problem-less nightly after a reboot.
[HTC One S] kdd998:
Yes I tried and this evening it did not connect on my WPA 2 PSK access point. From my simple test it looks like it's not fixed. I'll try again on monday.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
I have very bad battery life in last few builds :-/ I remove charger in 7 o'clock and in 17 o'clock battery is dead... 2-3 hours screen on time, excellent service quality

(3g/h) or wifi connection, auto brightness...

I am not sure what is happening...
[HTC One S] :
Stock kernel?
[HTC One S] nicknc:
Auto brightness is the likely culprit. Sometimes it works well, most times it overreacts. Always have had bad battery life with auto brightness, always.

That's not terrible screen on time either, but check for wakelocks.
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
I am using auto brightness since I know for Android :) I never had any problems with battery drain when it is activated... Wakelocks is presented in WhatsApp app, about 250 wls and totally phone is waked about 5 minutes only by WhatsApp... Maybe I need to do one clean flash...
[HTC One S] imilne:
Ooh, please be true. This is the only thing really annoying me about CM on my One S. Petty much everything else works great.

These days I just reboot my phone as I get into my car to leave work, so it'll connect properly once home.
[HTC One S] kdd998:
I still got the Wi-Fi reconnect bug this evening. So no, not fixed yet.

In my case :

WPA2 PSK -> WPA2 Enterprise PAP-CHAPv2 OK

The other way KO

If needed I can try to pull logs from wpa_supplicant. As a bug is already opened in CyanogenMod bug tracker I guess all the data is already there.
[HTC One S] benyto:
FWIW I was having an issue with long incoming SMS text messages (longer than 160 characters) being truncated with the string "null" rather than either being displayed as multiple individual messages or combined in a single long message. I don't recall having this problem in the past. This was happening on the 20140707 nightly ROM. Yesterday I upgraded to the 20140727 nightly ROM. As far as I can tell the problem is now gone.

I don't know if this is/was a ROM issue. It may be a coincidence that it disappeared after upgrading to 20140727. I just wanted to bring it up in case others have similar problems or if it crops up again for me.
[HTC One S] The Setlaz:
Alright, still here for me today as well :(
[HTC One S] michaelh99:
Has anyone else been able to use the mass storage connection (UMS) with CM11. It's never worked for me and I'm wonder if I did my initial install incorrectly or if this is a known issue that everyone avoids by attaching their phone as a media device (MTP)

i select the UMS option and enable USB storage but my computer never sees the device.
[HTC One S] benyto:
I don't believe I've ever had any problems using my phone as a mass storage device. I do not use MTP.
[HTC One S] redjamesg:
My PC setup dosn't support MTP, so I allways use it as UMS.

Never seen any problems with it.

RAM shrinked down after cm 11 20170731

My RAM shrinked down to 794 MB after installing the cm 11 20140731 nightly.

I think that it happened after that nightly because I registered it after that one.

I remember having a RAM of about 970 MB on the HTC One S (ville) .

Does anybody else have the same issue?
[HTC One S] derkleinebroicher:
I have only 788 MB RAM with latest nightly, but honestly I can't say, how much it used to be before. I'll keep an eye on it with next upcoming nightlies.

I saw some commits related to CM recovery touch ui. any info about it? I thought CM was using CWM as recovery. is it changed?
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Villa only has 1GB and you don't get it all. 794 or 796 is as much as has been reported for all of the 3.4 kernel versions and before that it was less
[HTC One S] budscheroni:
Really!? I remember my LBE Security and my RAM booster apps showing something like "xxx MB / 970 MB free". Now they show xxx MB / 795 MB free.

Maybe there was never more than 795 MB usable but all apps which showed the total size displayed 970 MB or something like that. Now they all Show only 794 or 795 MB. Android Shows the same number under memory in the System under "about phone".

Maybe I'm total wrong but I remember seeing a higher value there.

I dropped my dear 2 years old HOS into some dirty water and now now the touchscreen is dead. So I had to buy a new phone and thus switched to N5. I want to thank to all the amazing developers who let me use this precious phone with joy during 2 years. Thank you all.
[HTC One S] m1schi:
I'm on 20140801 right now and my HOS is far better than previously. Was already planning to buy a N5, because of poor battery life and all the reboots/freezes. Did a dirty flash to 20140801 and I've had one reboot per day, mostly when updating apps and trying to use the phone during the update. Otherwise it's running smooth for me.
[HTC One S] mongoosesRawesome:
Overall, I really enjoy this ROM. I do have a few problems. Battery life is shorter than on stock. I get disappearing icons on the home screen after a reboot (Netflix). And I cannot reconnect to my WPA2 PSK wifi at home without a reboot. Is there any fix for the wifi connect problem?
[HTC One S] AKToronto:
For disappearing icons are you by any chance on a 2.15 hboot and using an apps2sd type setup to push some apps onto your internal SD card instead of data? Previously when I was on 2.15 I have found that apps pushed to SD that way don't always reappear at boot
[HTC One S] Lucaman89:
I experienced this problem too. There is no workaround? The only thing is not to move app to SD?
[HTC One S] AKToronto:
I'm not aware of a work around... I just switched to 2.16 hboot instead and have been running the unofficial cm11 builds.
[HTC One S] mongoosesRawesome:
Yup, I did indeed move netflix over to SD and am running 2.15 hboot.
[HTC One S] Lucaman89:
I'm on 2,15 hboot. Just re-moved the app to internal memory and reboot. The apps are still there! Great!
[HTC One S] Siezemore:
I'm running Nightly 11-20140805 but I am experiencing quite annoying battery drain. It seems the phone is running fine, but on certain moments I feel it getting hot in my pocket and at that moment I know it's doing 'something' that is draining the battery fast. I don't know a thing about software, but it seems that the phone runs perfectly normal until something triggers the fast discharge. I am trying to figure out if this is because of an app that is still open or not (for instance I use wifi fixer because of shoddy AP's in my home). I am running the stock kernel and I read it might have to do with that? Which kernel should I switch to?

I also experience random reboots I think about twice a day. I have switched off the sim lock so the inconvience stays minimal, but I'd be happy if that can be solved too.

As far as I know these two problems did not or less frequently happen back in june when I first flashed CM 11.
[HTC One S] redjamesg:
Do you have better battery stats? To narrow down what is draining the battery.
[HTC One S] Siezemore:
The app? Nope. Besides from the CM stock apps I installed the Xposed framework, but it's not running any modules. The only other apps that use the root are Cerberus and Astro file manager. For the rest all pretty much mainstream apps...
[HTC One S] bassilap:
After you plug it in, go to Disk Management on your PC. Does it show up there?

[HTC One S] michaelh99:
Two different cables and not even a flicker in the device manager
[HTC One S] bassilap:
That's rough. Have you tried another ROM, or going back to stock?

Might be a hardware thing otherwise.
