you can also enable lock screen widgets. apart from that, I haven't found any other use. And it just takes 20mb extra for me (after reboot, no extra app or widget running), with both transparent status bar, and lock screen widget turned on.

1. same problem with Apollo and I have, need to reboot my phone to play music again :(

2. for wifi go to settings>wifi>menu>advanced> uncheck the "Scanning always available" ..

this helped me when I had this problem.

yes if you reflash again this mean that you replace the build.prop with new one and nothing will happen...

on CM 11 build.prop cant be edited from phone (I dont know why) only on compiuter you need to navigate to system folder in the .zip file and open and edit settings..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] maksimus0021:
I'm quietly edited build.prop and got a transparent status bar. Edited using RootExplorer. CM11 (20140120).

For everyone who is facing the bug that phone wont boot after changing lowram to false,use root explorer edit the line to false,delete .bak file,power of phone and then power on.Solved bug for me.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] varunthapliyal999:
I use NexMusic and I have the same problem.So I don't think that the problem is associated to apollo.Also I tried disabling DSP Manager but it didn't help, and the problem occurs randomly so it's quite hard to get a log.

Amazing with this newest rom (20140120) for the battery drain issue...its FIX.

i used batterystats to see the battery, and its consumed 0% with flight mode about 9 hours when i went to sleep last night

(see the attach).

and about musix player (apollo and dsp manager,i've changed it with player pro and doesnt find any problem until now..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tejadakenneth:
i didn't make any mistake. it can't save and when i reboot the phone only the backlight is working. after that i flashed again the rom. may be it's not editable in phone but in pc or may be using the root explorer? any positive solution about that?

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

Cm file explorer is buggy, make sure your build.prop after edited do not show 0k file size. If you got 0k filesize, reflash the rom
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xGiox:
Well in same folder as the normal file,it should be named build.prop.bak,at least if you are using root explorer,idk for others.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
Another build! :victory: Thanks Dhiru Bhai!

BTW, someone please help me find the instruction to take a log, if some error occurs. Is it the same one that is available in developer options?

Lastly, about that "suspend_backoff" wakelock. It is still happening randomly. Still going through that last_kmsg thing, so hopefully, I will have more data soon. :good:

---------- Post added at 03:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 AM ----------

I left the phone on charge last night, and it was okay for me. Apart from displaying 100% battery, there is no other issue. Charging cuts off properly, imo. Will be flashing the new build though, so hopefully that will solve the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] LoLaTiOn:
since last kernel

the recovery is difficult to access combo or reboot recovery

when the phone boot, loop splatch screen

I wonder if just the instructions are too fast !

no problem repartitioning

Full LF2 > MF1 > CF-MF1 > rom > reboot recovery perfect converting
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tetakpatak:
Try app Quick Boot from play store
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dhiru1602:
suspend_backoff would occur when there were too many wakeup from suspend attempts immediately one after the other due to which the system prevents suspend for a fixed amount of time.

If you are seeing too many of them, the chances are that

Your network signal is too poor and keeps going out of range

You have data turned on and some applications are trying to constantly receive data when the phone sleeps

WiFi is turned on and maybe applications in the phone are receiving data or the WiFi network has too much broadcast traffic (ARP, DHCP, UPnP)

Bluetooth is turned on and discoverable and one of the nearby device constantly tries to scan and negotiate with your device.

Keep the hunt going. Maybe a log will explain which active wakelocks are causing resume from suspend.

Why are you people concerned with phone being fully charged all the time,it used to be like that before cm11,i like it this way,now my phone is every time at 100% and doesn't drop to 55% when its on charger,and what does that change log ' battery driver reverted' mean.Build from January 20 has awesome battery and i can get full day of usage even though my battery is original(old) and 'pregnant'.I experience no drain at all when phone is screen off(all the time in deep sleep).

Anyone got ART working ?

When I try to enable it I'm facing bootloop

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Hetalk:
I guess you need to use art-compatible gapps. I'm not sure the ones posted in the OP are art-compatible.

Gapps here has art-compatible gapps used by gnexus users. See if those work. Post your findings here.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Darktitor:
I mean when I enable it in the dev setting to use ART instead of Dalvik the phone bootloop...

I've try to use Paranoid 0Day Gapps with ART support but bootloop too with Dhiru's google apps the same ^^

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Hetalk:
But, by what I read, most people posted positive results using dhacker's gapps (the ones I linked to in my last post) against any other gapps.

See if you wanna try them and report back. :good::good:

I havent tried art yet, on SL or Gnex. By what I read, as of now it's experimental, and even google hasn't made it a default runtime for nexus5. :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Ottonet:
Tried ART with gapps posted in OP and did not have problems

Mind that when using ART you lose root, so before switching to ART, go in /system/xbin and chmod 755 su.

Anyway, ART si still not working properly, in my opinion, phone becomes very laggy. I switched twice, and reverted to Dalvik each time.

Boot and app initialisation last forever, at first reboot.

App installation takes longer as well, and in the process the phone almost becomes unresponsive

did you have mac address showing in about phone ?

i reflash 2 time, but cant get it to show up, but WIFI is working, and 3G working too.

edit: found swap SD not working too, and 4.4 do not have vold.fstab in /etc, but a new fstab.latona in the ROOT dir. guess now the swap have to be done in kernel level.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Hetalk:
I just checked, and you are right. There no mac address showing for the wifi connection, but wifi works well, without issues.

I also have 4.4 rom on my gnexus and it does show a mac address, so I guess this issue is related to sl9003 build only.
[MENTION=2875964]dhiru1602[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] NerdiestGeek:
If there is a MAC address problem, I wish to ask, can the MAC address ever change? Will the MAC address not being there affect any services I avail that check my phone's registered MAC? Thanks...

EDIT: I got the unavailable mac issue as well.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chongns:
i guess, it is on the mac address reader problem, if mac is loss, you would not have wifi connection, and it is not related to 3G.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
We were just worried about over-charging our phones. I would rather take 90% battery than over-charging. It was just a bit of confusion though, as charge cuts off properly.

[MENTION=244777]dhiru[/MENTION]

I tried to manually enable all of those possibilities you mentioned, including no mobile network. But I just can't recreate the situation when it happens. It is extremely random. Anyway, I flashed the 24th jan build today, so hopefully that will solve the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tetakpatak:
Over-charging won't happen with the original battery or with premium quality 3rd party ones (like Polar-cell).

When fully charged, the charging process will simply stop then.

With cheap, crappy 3rd party batteries just anything can happen.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dhiru1602:
On Stock ROM, the battery keeps charging when its not full. Even with 1% drop in the battery level after charging to 100%, it recharges again. This could be the reason many of them were facing the bulge battery issues, since if the charging is kept overnight or for prolonged periods, the repeated charging and discharging will lower the lifespan of the battery. On the newer 3.0 kernel, once the charging gets to 100%, the charging is cut off and when the battery drains to 94% or so, it starts charging again. This is the reason why once you uplug after it shows Charged, the battery may have drained since then and that is why it doesn't stick to 100%. We have added this behavior so that the battery doesn't get charged and discharged too frequently, which will make the phone hotter and reduce the life of the battery.

When connected to USB charging, the phone will drop battery faster since USB will prevent the device from entering sleep. A/C Charging on the other hand will have lesser drain so the chance of battery retaining at 100% after charging is higher for A/C charging when compared to USB charging.

Build 20140124!

Thank you dhiru1602 for the awesome rom for the phone "Made and forgot" by samsung! You are doing a great great great job!

I am writing the reply to report that the latest build

20140124

may have some issue with boot.img?

Yesterday, i flashed the rom on top of 20140110 Build, i noticed that my phone was struggling to boot up and had frequent boot loop after the Samsung Galaxy SL Logo is seen.

I couldn't as well boot to recovery mod to revert the changes.

It could boot up sometimes, both in recovery mode and normal but, other times it just had boot loop.

I had first tried installing without data/cache wipe, so i guessed i needed to wipe my data. Then again i tried flashing in a clean way, wiping data/cache and once /system partition as well.

Then, I flashed the boot image from 20140110 Build in latest, build

20140124

via terminal emulator with command

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

It is working fine now.

Am i only having the problem? Or are others facing this too??

And again, a huge thanks for fixing wifi tether problem in latest build, also battery is bit good then previous build. Thanks!!:good::good::good:

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

Try flashing boot.img from previous build via terminal emulator when the it boots up, (LUCKILY)

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

This build is faster and more stable then previous build, in my experience.

P.S. Try booting your set pressing only vol+ key till you see CyanogenMod boot image? I don't know if it has something to do with boot process but, trust me, i was successful to boot to android ui.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
So, new build solved my wakelock issue. Now, I get only 20% drop after 10hours. It is better than expectations. 2 days without needing to charge is just too good. :victory:

Anyway, other than that, I am happy that 100% charge thing is reverted. 5% less battery is better than having to replace battery every year. I don't see much changes over last build though, maybe I haven't looked so hard.

So, now I just have one issue. That is of apps not being able to use internet. I will prepare a log in the evening, to check what is wrong. Will upload the same tomorrow.

Also, for those who are facing bootloop after flashing the new build; just reflash the build and check. I had the similar issue, and reflashing it solved it. :cool:

loSconosciuto said "The 2G issue is more a workaround not to brake things. I've never tried to anything about it, but those who worked on RILJ knew what they were doing. I find interesting that my device usally uses 3G only mode, which is what I was using on stock. I wonder if stock ROMs save the preferred mode somewhere (I'm thinking about the param partition, no accessible with the 3.0 kernel or any 2.6.35 kernel using MTD, unless the right modules are inserted). I would expected 2G/3G to be the default mode, 3G only is a weird one."
