Thanks for all the help with this. Music2sd is working great! Now I have the best of all worlds. Free streaming over Wi-Fi or cell network (thankfully I still have unlimited data) and I can pick an choose music to put on my phone for those times when I'm off the net.

I will try to find links to people that have had success with the 128 GB SD cards. Most discussions revolved around the SanDisk 128GB micro SDXC card.

Update: I misspoke. I found a link where someone got the 64GB SanDisk microd SDXC card to work in a RAZR (http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...ou-know-64gb-micro-sd-cards-do-work-razr.html). If the 64GB works then there is a good chance the 128GB will work as well.

You can upload your personal music collection from your PC to Google Play Music via their Music Manager app. You can upload up to 20,000 songs for free. You can then stream them to your device using the Play Music app or to any PC through the web browser interface.

There is no charge for this. They do charge $9.99/month if you want to stream their music.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] drewski_1:
You should look in the mirror. He said he doesn't have unlimited data so locally stored music makes more sense than streamed :eek:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dwillian:
And Google Play Music will do a very good job of playing locally stored music too. You can stream your own music too for free over Wi-Fi (once you've uploaded copies to Google). And while you are connected to free Wi-Fi you can select songs, albums, artists, and even playlists that you want to store on your device. And you can easily unselect some or all of these and select new items when you are ready for a change.

Of course you can avoid Wi-Fi altogether and use USB to drag some tunes over to your device. Google Play Music will find and play those tracks too. Not nearly as convenient in my estimation, but it works just fine.

All in all it is a very attractive product IMHO.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] crackerjack1957:
Some of use do not have access to cable or dsl & have limited internet access so wi-fi is not an option.

Relying on 4g or satellite for internet access which really sucks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DumbleCore:
At home, no need for streaming, there's Dolby, most time I'm not at home, and I've limited Internet plan, so streaming is a no go

When I want music on my phone, I plug in the USB cable and get it....

So what do I not get?

That I can load the music up and stream when on my way?

As I said two times, it's a no go for me.

3/31 running smooth so far, haven't tested a lot out but I know my Hangouts is still screwy

I did not do a full wipe
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
Nothing really big, but this happens on all KitKat Roms. The alarm icon will not stay showing in the status bar, or on any lockscreen widgets even when the alarm is still enabled. If I use a different app for alarms, such as my favorite, circle alarm, it will stay in the status bar and lockscreen. It does not matter if it is CM11, SlimKat, LiquidSmooth, etc, it is a common KitKat Issue. I think it must be due to the aggressive RAM management built in that makes these ROMs so fast and smooth. Is there any way to say, "white list" the clock app, so that it is not killed, and keep the icon present?

Also, on CM11 3/31 build now, so far so good. Looking forward to testing it out over the next couple days.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
I've never lost it from my bar...

Meneldur @ XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
I wanted to share some research.

I've been playing with SlimKat lately. Definitely much better battery consumption at 4.3%/hr vs ~10%/hr on CM11 0328.

I found that power drainage worsens when outside a WiFi cloud, using only mobile connection, even on Slim. On CM it climbs past 10%/hr, on Slim approaches 8-9%/hr range. BBS shows notable increments in RILJ counts. And it seems to start after an orange-bar episode, something I notice when there's no down throughput shown in network monitor (an applet for Xposed that puts two counters for DL and UL).

Today I noticed network monitor was stuck in two values, right when there was an ongoing orange-bars issue. Only after an airplane mode shot the connection resurrected.

I thought: Could it be that Stargo's successful patch against signal drops is now breaking the connection after a while or at low signal antennas?

Meneldur @ XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
Mine will stay there until I use a bunch of apps, then it will disappear. It only does this with the stock clock alarm though. It is as if it is lower on the chain of priority, so it gets dropped by RAM management. If you open alarms, it is still on, and then the icon and widgets will reappear. With Circle Alarm, it never loses the icon.

Blackscreen back again on 03/27

Hey Guys,

I have an XT912 Verizon US and was SO happy with build 03/25. I had NO noticeable issues with it at all. Could not test HDMI as I do not have the cable for it. I upgraded to 03/27 and now have "the dreaded blackscreen" issue again. Whenever someone calls me, I can answer the call, the screen goes black, and I cannot see the screen to use speaker, Bluetooth, or even hang up the call. ONLY when the calling party hangs up does my screen light again. Are any of the current builds good, so far as you know? Right now, 04/01 is available for OTA and I want to get off this version, either by updating or reverting back to 03/25 to get a good, working phone again.

Can anyone recommend or report on any recent builds that work just fine? Thank you very much. :fingers-crossed:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
Same device. 3/30 is working fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
So elegant and "to the point". I am cursed with not being able to say anything without "writing a book on it". Thank you Dwillian, I could not have said it better myself. :good:

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

Really? *Awesome*, dude! I was going to go with 04/01, but that is so new that no one has had a chance to test it out. At least I have your word that all is well and it has been out for a few days. Downloading OTA as we speak. Thank you very, very much! :highfive:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
OK, originally thought this issue was something else, now I am thinking it's more pervasive. When I touch a phone number on a web page or in an email to dial it I get to the dialer, the structure of the number is almost always +1 xxx-yyy-zzzz and the phone won't dial and it says call ended. Clicking on it from recents results in the same. If I type it in it works fine. On the 3/30 nightly and xt912 device. Is it ROM related? Dialer maybe? Anyone else have the issue?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sShadowSs:
I've actually been on 3/27 for a few days now and never had this issue. It's working fine for me so far and is pretty much stable.

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

It's because of the '+' sign in front. Get rid of it and the call will go through. I've this issue before on both CM and other roms.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
Ok, that makes sense. But the phone number doesn't have it in the webpage or email text I am clicking. So how do I make the dialer not add them?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sShadowSs:
that's a good point.. i have not tried it this way. maybe try a different dialer? I use exDialer and never had issues with it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] GTiceman:
I also have this issue
[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
Just had a FC. Also have issues with IMAP email accounts in the CM email client moving things to unread when I have definitely read them. Anyone else? 3/30 nightly.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gabhroo123:
I am having the exact same problem. Google contacts (in GMail) does not have any prefixes. However, the phone adds +1 in the front, and call does not go through.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
General KitKat question. On these ROMs, our RAZR maxx is back like new, really fast and smooth. I think that in relation to this, apps being aggressively killed for RAM management does work, but makes some apps work poorly. Such as Facebook. It is extremely slow on KitKat ROMs on our device. Is there any way to get apps like this on some sort of whitelist so they work better? Or is it just due to the google connection/orange bars issue? Or any other input is appreciated. Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dwillian:
4/2 nightly broke my phones ability to make phone calls. Going back to 4/1 for now. Anyone else having this problem?

No. it works fine for me. I can make and receive calls.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
You can try Trickster, Autokiller Memory Optimizer or the like to alter minfree values controlling Android policy for closing background/finished apps. Good idea I'll try too.

Meneldur @ TF700t
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
I have Kernel Tweaker built in on LS. It goes by Mb on each slider. Would higher or lower Mb be more or less agressive? My choices are Foreground App, Visible App, Secondary Server, Hidden App, Content Provider, Empty App. I think what you are talking about would be Visible app? It is listed as an app that is open and running in the background. Do you know which ones to tweak, and which way to go, higher or lower Mb? Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
You're right. Please excuse me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Noe!:
Hey Ohmster, what version of Music2SD are you using? 1.8 was giving me issues with songs not playing after I pinned them to the device.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
Sorry for taking so long.

Minfree values are (as their name implies) the minimum value of free RAM before Android triggers memory reclaiming methods. So with higher values, Android will be more aggresive reclaiming space. You can find more info in this Androidcentral's article.

Bear in mind that free RAM is not useful, although small minfree values could lend to sluggish performance. The sweet spot is RAM filled with the data you need. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
4/2 would not sleep for me. Trying 4/3 now. I didn't try wiping cache it to see that would fix it or anything. Just figured I would move up.

The alarm icon does disappear, but the clock still shows that it is set.

Also, a couple MMS messages showed up but would not come through. Just looks like an * sort of.

Battery life seems to keep getting better. A few nightlies had some issues.

Just curious if the songs survive a reboot. Something keeps deleting the song tracks on my device and play music then shows no music on my device.

Music2sd seemed to work initially, but following a reboot everything is messed up. I sent an email to the music2sd developer a couple days ago. So far no reply. I have tried both the 1.8 and 1.7.1 versions of music2sd without success.

Oh shoot! I have to copy this post and list all that "Thanked you" for it so as to make sure everyone on that list never gets long answers anymore. One or two sentences, or else someone else can answer it better and shorter. I never was good at that. I do my stuff on a PC, you are all using tapatalk, meaning "tiny screen". Big long posts are irritating on small screens. It makes sense now. I am going to lay off the experiments to help with 1,000 word count replies and keep questions and answers very, very short or just not post them at all to benefit the tapatalkers.

Is it just me or did 4-4-14 break LTE? It fixed the issue with ICCID unknown so now the verizon app works out of the box which makes me happy but no LTE even if I change the APN I only get LTE for about a second and then it drops to 3G. I use cyandelta to do my updates becuase I hate backing up my txt messages. Flashing 4-5-14 right now. Hopefully it fixes the problem. Also I use wifi 99% of the time so it may have been broke for a couple of days. Just noticed it today though.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

Well, it looks like no one will answer you so I will. :)

I answered this in a previous post, #3224, because like you, I had no idea what the M4 snapshot was. Is it "a keeper", necessary? The best? Or what? So I went to CyanogenMod and found the "official" definition of what the "M Snapshot" is for and what it means. Per the CM FAQ:

M Snapshot

The M Snapshot is a milestone build typically released around once a month. These builds are separated from the normal development environment to provide a build that is more likely to be stable. These are the first builds the team wants to get feedback from the masses. Because of this, these are the first builds you are able to submit bug reports on the official CyanogenMod project manager, https://jira.cyanogenmod.org. Make sure you get a logcat (instructions are in the wiki) and you follow the instructions to properly submit a bug report.

Well, there is your answer and at least now you know what the "Milestone Snapshot" is for. To install it, you have to wipe *everything* and install completely clean. I am not going to wipe and install it, that release seems to be for those that want a stable build, leave it alone, and report bugs. Not for us that install the NIGHTLIES because we *want* the new stuff and are willing to put up with setbacks along the way to get them. If you want to install CM11

and then leave it alone

, then the snapshot is for you.

Hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Noe!:
Milestone 5 has been released. It still has not been generated for spyder. In the changelog, it says "NavBar – Allow toggle in runtime (needs kernel support)". So if it IS generated for us, I'll have to see if the navigation bar can be turned on. :confused:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Ohhhh, you are one of the guys who wants me to severely limit my replies. Yeah, okay I will try to make it quick. I already answered this entire issue, performed experiments, and updated my results, all the way to the final results and put this issue to bed. Get a nice pillow and pretty masseuse because these kinds of answers are LONG. Here ya go, read This Post #3644.

FYI: I did save one album of one song "Avril Lavigne - Complicated" to SD card. It disappeared from the Ext SD Card on reboot. I can still play the song with phone data disabled and it shows "pinned", meaning "on device", but where it is, I have no clue. Songs get renamed to random number mp3 files, good luck searching for it.

Tip:

If you really hate reading, forget the Music2SD module and skip all the way to the bottom and read UPDATE 3: That will give you the answer and is not "too bad" to read. Total word count from update3 to end is 265 words, hopefully not horrible for Tapatalk. :victory:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Noe!:
Ohmster, I am using the 1.7.1 version of Music2SD, and when I reboot the songs are still on my external SD Card (from what I've noticed) :confused:. Ohmster, maybe you can try this ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix ) to see if it allows you to save the music to your SD card.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Awesome! Thank you very much. I will look into this and let you know if it works. So, you are "pinning" the songs or albums in Play Music and they now go to your Ext-SDCard? Where, same location as Music2SD? Have you tried to play the songs while data is shut off? (Xposed Module Advanced Power Menu gives you this toggle ability.) How does it work for you, Noe, if you can tell me in so many words? Thanks, bud! :good:

UPDATE:

Houston, we have a problem. It won't work on Cm11. Here is a bit of information right on the Play Store SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD app page:

* This app is designed to solve a specific problem. If you don't have that problem, don't install this app.

* This app is likely only useful if you have a stock ROM. If you're running an aftermarket ROM like Cyanogenmod, then there is no reason to install this app (good aftermarket ROMs don't suffer from the problem that this app corrects).

This kind of takes the wind out of our sails for this configuration modification app. Unless you have something in the way of personal experience to report otherwise? Please do. But from what I see, it will not work nor will it help. Thanks for trying, though. We all have to try. :p

I am on Tapatalk right now, reading and posting to this web forum. Reading long articles does not seem to bad me. But writing long replies or posts would be 1 hell of a difficult chore. Writing a guide or how to manual would be lengthy as well as working with an individual to solve a particular problem. But I will try to keep my word count down, in general. I really do prefer a PC over Tapatalk for this sort of thing. It is much too difficult to tap out words or even dictate them on a phone. No wonder you guys tend to write small replies! [emoji50]
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
Many of you guys probably already know this, but it sounds like Android 4.4.3 is going to be released soon (like in the next couple weeks). And one of the major fixes that it brings might be a fix for the orange bars. Hopefully the CM team can work their magic! :fingers-crossed:

Not to steal Ohmster's thunder, but since he hasn't pointed it out yet: ExposedFramework +GravityBox will give you navbar AND customizations. I've been playing with it and it's flawless. It also solves the problem of the backlights going out just before you want to use the hard keys. I have the backlight turned off right now and an just using the navbar.

Yes, I'm aware of Xposed and GravityBox but I really don't like using the latter. Installing GravityBox automatically turns on things in the application which I never use and get in the way of use, so to speak. So, GravityBox is a last minute resort when things don't work when expected to work.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Excuse me, but I don't get the whole navbar thing. What the heck is it and what does it do, maybe I know it by another name? I love these modules and anyone who shares with me about them. I have Gravity Box and it is one of the modules I have not fully explored yet. I think I will get to it. Can you screenshot some of your settings to show how you are using it? Pressing the power button should give you a screenshot option. If not, the Advanced Power Menu module is awesome, will give you screenshot and several other nice features in the power menu. This would help a LOT because I really cannot even imagine what you are telling me. I may be a Senior Member, but I have a LOT to learn yet. Thanks!

[MENTION=5459763]Noe![/MENTION] I understand not wanting to bug things up with unwanted hacks, I have most of gravity box turned off, since it duplicates functions already present in CM11. I mainly use it for the key redefine improvements and the app launcher. To each our own! It's the android way!
