OOh i think i found out why my phone gets shi tty and slower every rom i install...

Hahaha, living and learning
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Duh! :p

That will do it! :o

This is just an experience learning thing. You will get the hang of it. Data is stored very differently in different roms. Even the same rom may change the way it stores data during the course of it's development. The warning to NEVER restore data with apps when coming from a different rom! Is a very serious one!

I will move my cm11 install from slot 1 to stock slot. Since is is the very same rom, just moved to a new slot, I am pretty sure that I can restore all app and data when I do this. But if there is any kind funny stuff going on, I will wipe it and do again without data.

Enjoy the rom, this is the best one ever! :good:

It is in the Online Guide in my sig with download links for Safe Strap 3.73. The guide does need updating and I will get to it. If you already have Safe Strap 3.73 installed, you are good to go. If not, read below.

If you are going to install Safe Strap, you might as as well install Michael's modified Safe Strap 3.75 since it works quite well, can do the new CM12 roms if you wish, and is fully backwards compatible. I use it now myself. Follow the instructions in the README.txt to the letter. You can find Safestrap 3.75 for each phone here:

Finally up and running with 20150405 cm11 unofficial. I had to go back to a much older version of pa_gapps that I could dig up to get this thing to flash successfully. Sorry ohmster couldn't get your gapps from mega to download ... not sure why. I'll give this build some time to settle in and then try to send a report. Sounds like all will be great.. Big thanks to [MENTION=3457922]stargo[/MENTION] for his work on this... very much appreciated. Looking forward to seeing just how good things run.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Oh I am so sorry, [MENTION=5212827]dwh2o13[/MENTION]. The Mega Cloud links were bad, I had actually grabbed the links to the md5 files and embedded them, NOT to the actual rom zip files like I should have. If I had tested the links, I would have caught this. The links are fixed. Grab these lase two pa-gapps files for yourself so at least you have something newer to resort to.

pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20150208-signed.zip

pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20150301-signed.zip

The 03/01 pa-gapps file is the latest one I have. If what you flashed is a lot earlier than that, download to phone, go into Safe Strap, wipe dalvik and cache ONLY, flash the new pa-gapps file, and reboot. You will have a lot less catching up to do, but yes, yours will catch up anyway.

Yes, this is a very good build. Hard for me to imagine how it could get better. I am friends with Michael, he is a really decent young man. Different continent (Europe), different country (Germany), different cultures and language slang, but after all is said and done, "boys will be boys and girls will be girls". I did ask if he planed on making anymore roms as I am now ready to put this on stock. His reply (We both have cats and are cat lovers.):

Nice to hear that it is working so well for you :) I will build more roms when there are enough changes to justify waiting 3 to 4 hours for the builds to finish ;) So maybe every other week or so until commits to cm-11 stop completely. Love, Michael & Bunny

Michael • 3:08 AM

==============================================

Thanks Michael! I cannot imagine how this could get any better. I multitask with it, and it is always ready. The thread is in love with it! You have a very large following and fan base, so if you do make more cm11 roms, we will appreciate and test. Yes, Love from Bunny is good. Cats can really be "like people" in terms of a relationship. They love and give love. This is a great comfort for me when between girlfriends. Love, Paul & Sonia Kitty

==============================================

We talk sometimes by Hangouts. The video and audio chat are awesome in Hangouts, even from the Florida US to Firth, Germany! So, we have the very best rom available, it has no apparent issues, and is very, very fast. Use it. If you love it like I do, dump your stock Jellybean rom and install this version of cm11 to stock from scratch. If you have already installed and tested this on a Safestrap slot, make a Titanium Backup of all your apps. Since this is the very same rom you will be taking from another slot, you should have NO problems restoring apps AND data to the stock slot.

Normally you would NEVER do this, but it would be okay if you are restoring apps to the very same rom and build from which you got them. You are going to be amazed, this is really good. I am running out of excuses now to put off moving it to stock. Even if there was another, "better" build release, I could always update it on stock slot anyway. :D

i've installed 04/5 build, using update method, it didnt work well, gapps n setting FC many time, i clean install, been 5 days, work fine, but setting still sometime FC, a bit laggy, n quite draining battery fast.. i think 29/03 is better.

btw for the gapps i use pa gapps modular by AkAM0NS73R - pa-gapps, work fine, n its latest gapps
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dwh2o13:
No worries Ohmster. I'm just glad I could get it working since I could see all the great feedback on it. I'll definitely grab your new links for gaps and keep them for future reference.

Once I spend some time on this build and if it performs the way I'm hoping, I'm definitely going to want to consider moving it to stock. Have never done that and always considered stock to be hallowed ground, my literally safe side [emoji1]. I'll have a few questions for you [MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION] win that time comes.

As always, take care my friend and thanks for all you do for this this community.

I've been using my stock slot for ROMs for a long time now and I'm not worried or scared to use it whatsoever. Never really had any problems.

Currently have CM11 05042015 on my stock slot, but have been using AOKP this last week. Will switch back to CM11 later this evening or tomorrow to test it. I dirty flashed it over 29032015 (which was quite a good build already).

Test report of CM11-UNOFFICIAL-20150405-umts_spyder

<< Basic Info >>

XT910 (umts_spyder) / CM11-20150405 / Unofficial PA-GApps Micro 20150403 (from hellowasif) / Fresh install of /system but keep /data from 20140329 / Wipe cache & dalvik-cache

Note: PA-GApps was flashed manually.

<< Report >>

Tested Period : 4 days

Tested Item : Phone call / Bluetooth / SMS / Camera / Mobile data / WiFi / GPS / HDMI / MX Player / YouTube / Light Games(Paper Toss) / Chromecast / Stream Video / etc.

Tested Result : Good but not good as 2015/03/29. Sorry for late test report, I'm very busy last week. There are some random freezes in 150405 which not happened in 150329. Sometimes it happens when you press power button to wake up the phone. 4 buttons are light up but screen is still black. Switch between apps or long-press home button to open "recently apps" lags sometimes too. I will keep 150329 in my stock slot.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
Thanks for your report. I only booted to my CM11 rom on Saturday evening, and so far I'm having an experience on par with 29032015. I did not use my phone extensively on Sunday, but now I'm back in action. Will report back if I also encounter a similar experience to [MENTION=3313632]ChungHung.Chen[/MENTION].

Environment:

-ROM is installed on stock slot.

-Updated from 29032015 by wiping /system (usual cache wiping too).

-Installed PA-Gapps 08032015 full package (Include install performed).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ChungHung.Chen:
Thanks for your feedback and help to communicate with [MENTION=3457922]stargo[/MENTION]. That's why test reports are important to everyone. We have different devices, different view of "stable", different apps and usage. Test reports can help to find out which one you can try and what issue is your concern. Like you said, you can accept the "screen wake up issue" but in my point of view it will lose some points. But we are helping this ROM better, right? :victory:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
OK, I've flashed the 12042015 build of CM11 and although it's too early to report anything, I can't find anything negative to say. Everything feels as good as the last two builds.

Stargo has been so amazing to us. I really, really appreciate his efforts for us. I really wish we as a community could do something for him..

'scuse me Bob. This is pretty cool and all, especially if one is a "Star Wars Nut". But I am having a hard time relating this post to cm11, 12, or any OMAP4 devices. Is this perhaps, an "Off Topic" Post? If so, could you please label them as such when posting? Thanks buddy! :good:

I posted it on a OMAP-4 device.:D jk. It is off topic, sorry. I will label all my posts like this as such. Sorry.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
[MENTION=5711114]Bobcus Leper[/MENTION] Oh gosh, now I feel terrible, like I "yelled at you" or something. Sorry Bri, I did not mean to hurt your feelings. :(

Look man, off topic is okay. I do it all the time, I love to yak, you are all my friends. For me, it is natural to yak with my friends. But mostly I do have on topic questions that I post, and then drift off topic at the end. Mostly to say what is on my mind such as this:

"Why the heck is Les Stroud" doing "Bigfoot" and making his entire survival show about this mythical creature? Is it just me or did Les totally destroy any credibility he has as a naturalist and survivor by jumping on the Bigfoot Bandwagon?"

But I post something relevant like I will now to get the post up. If my post is "Totally OT", then I announce it as such. That is just how I do it, you do what you feel "is right", ...Brian. :)

On Topic:

I have installed the APM+ Xposed Module and love it, the pretty colors and advanced features on the Power Button menu. One of them is "Screen Record". I still don't quite understand that one and wrote to Kenneth, the author about it. But here is somethine we all have an anyone can answer.

In the CM11 Quick Tiles pull down menu, there is the option to add or remove tiles from the Quick Tile set. I tapped the + sign and the + bottom right to add another tile. I notice that "Camera" is available to me and why would anyone want to put Camera on the Quick Tiles? It is MUCH easier and faster to just touch the desktop or quick launch bar and open the Camera, right? So why add it to Quick Tiles. I did and got the surprise of my life!

The "Camera" Quick Tile itself turned into a very tiny live video cam window! But it seems to do nothing. Holding my finger on it brought up a "Open With" menu for things like Gallery, Picasso, ES File Manager, and some other things. I tapped Gallery and did not see any recent image in the Gallery.

What the heck is "Camera" in the Quick Tiles used for and how to you work it?

Does anybody know? I haven't a clue and am still waiting for the APM+ developer to write back on how to make a screen record. I *think* that screen record is actually built into cm11, ...somewhere. But how to work it I have no clue. I wanted to use this feature to show a friend in email how to open and use the Android camera.

Camera, Quick Tile, or Screen Record, anyone? At all? Answer, tips,. clues, or suggestions are very much welcome here fellows. :o

What's up everybody? Just checking in on my old stomping grounds. How is everything with the RAZR? I hear 12.1 builds are now rolling out. Over here on the Turbo side of things we now have root, a system image flasher and are very close to unlocking the bootloader. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
Hey Jake

Things are going great here. Still having fun romming our RAZRs (until the end).

Yip Lollipop is a reality for us, but some, like myself, are sticking to KK for the time being until some serious headway is made! But it's all good.

Ohmster, I shall check out the camera tile. I never used it either because I didn't need/want a camera tile, but you say it's doing something that you didn't expect.. so I'll take a look too. BTW, what build are you running and how is it going?

Brian, please don't stop, I hear what Ohmster is saying... and it's not to stop ;) (in simple terms)! Lol.

Not popular? I don't know anyone who owns a Motorola (for a few years now). Samsung etc all over.

Money wise, I'm not purchasing any time soon. This RAZR better just pull through for a while.

Lovely here. In a town called Saldanha Bay.

Drove about 180km and damn, Google Maps is a huge pain. Hogging so much memory, constantly crashing, but it got me here. Had to probably go back into app 5 times. [MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION], you love Google Maps, but how have you ever had a good experience?

Hey Ohmster

I used 12042015 build, but the incoming call screen was delayed and I didn't want that. Restored my 05042015 backup maybe 2 days back because of this, and it's what I'm using now. It works great, but I had a terrible experience with Google Maps. Phone was really struggling to handle it. Bundle that with the battery draining with maps running for 2hrs - and to worsen it, micro usbs just fall out my charging jack/port with the slightest nudge. Receiving phone calls though seems to be fine on this build though.

Actually, I was thinking to restore my 29032015 ROM and see how it goes.

I don't use maps all too often, but since my standalone GPS is ancient and struggling with the software I put on it, I'm kinda just using the phone for navigation when I need it.

Still have AOKP running in rom-slot1. It looks to generally have less free RAM, but manages fine. I should test out maps...

Besides maps, the ROMs have all been working quite well. All feeling very smooth. There's only so far you can push the device I guess.

I'm so tired, and it's just past 20h00.

Perhaps I should consider an early night.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
[MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION]:

Missed your remark? Completely - it's 2 days later. Since there were no new posts in the thread, I did not go into it. And now that I am here, I see... ;)

OK, so this morning on my way to work (still am on my way) I decided to try Miui (which was the first Android custom ROM I ever used). I downloaded it last night and so this morning was a matter of creating a slot and flashing. What a mission with space! I already have AOKP in slot-1 using a ton of space.

My gapps didn't flash because of not having enough space in /system. Will have to flash a smaller package for this ROM.

Well, what a treat. I missed Miui. All this time playing with similar ROMs and neglecting an old favourite. I don't know how well it works though. I see someone ported a later build for the xt912, but the download I have is a port found on their site. JB is the last official it seems. But this KK port looks to be good. I only looked at it for like 10 minutes.

Isn't Miui popular anymore, or just not in our community? Is it because they are concentrating on their own devices now and so interest has been lost? What's your opinion?

Oh, Ohmster..

Restored my 29032015 build again since I felt it ran very well. Don't know much on how maps performs (really need to do a good trip to test). But it seems to run well... just don't know why my status bar clock keeps vanishing (at least when centred).

My CPU does manager to idle at 300Mhz. It will idle at 600Mhz when on the "desktop" in Nova Launcher. But if I disable the "OK Google" detection, it idles at 300Mhz when on the "desktop".

Guys i need a help. I reflashed JB rom, then i install safestrap 3.75 from stargo page. When i wipe stock system partition and try flash CM, i get error, and i need to flash stock JB again and again... It's strange because i can install CM on romslot. Any ideas? ;/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
Very strange. And that same file flashes fine to a rom-slot? Otherwise I would have suggested a corrupt file, but that doesn't seem the case.

Why must you reflash JB, does Safestrap break? If it doesn't, you can just backup your rooted jellybean before flashing the rom so that you can easily restore. Although, I assume you can't get into Safestrap and that is what forces you to reflash JB - so you probably don't care to restore it.

I don't know what could be wrong.

It sounds like you have things correct but here are steps just to make sure:

Flash JB

Root JB

Install Safestrap apk, run it and install recovery

Go into recovery

Make sure you are in stock slot

Go to advanced wipe and wipe everything except internal memory and sd/external memory

Flash ROM and your gapps etc

Wipe cache/dalvik

Reboot to system

Otherwise, I'm really not sure. Maybe someone else will know, or perhaps you can give some more information.

[MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION], I am just using 29032015 since it really seemed to perform well from the get-go. I don't doubt 12042015, but the incoming call screen seemed a bit delayed for me.

Maybe I should try Trebuchet again, it matured a lot since it started. But themes are no different depending on the launcher.

The launcher (and I will only speak for Nova here) does not handle the dialer nor the settings screen or notification drawer etc. It only handles the "desktop" and the app drawer (as well as the "widget-picker" ) . So themes will still skin the settings screen, dialer, notification drawer, apps (if they went so far) etc, no matter the launcher.

Whether skins are able to go one further when using Trebuchet, I'm not sure (since I haven't been using it), but maybe they even skin Trebuchet's app drawer and desktop to an extent - although I don't believe this is the case.

But yes, running Trebuchet should be everyone-who-uses-CM11's choice - it is the intended experience. And I should also run it. I did pay for Nova Launcher, and quite frankly, it's been a worthwhile purchase.

For fun:

You should try "Pocket Lock" from the store. Gimmicky, but still nice. I use it to wake my phone - just take it out my pocket and the screen lights up. Just wave my hand over it and the screen lights up. You can also make it lock your device, but I don't use it for that. I just double tap the status bar or use a quick-setting tile to lock my device. Never need to touch the power button again.. And I don't notice any battery drain.
