No!

Do NOT install those patches! WiFi works just fine and Tether is now called WiFi-AP (Access Point) and can be found in the pull down menu.) Once installed, they cannot be taken out and you will have to start over.

Don't do any of that stuff. Months ago we needed a WiFi patch, camera patch, JBX kernel, and all sorts of "crutches" to get CM11 working. All of that has been cleared up. Just use CM11 and pa-gapps, nothing else. Everything works without any patches. Camera, WiFi, WiFi AP, all of it. And it all works real well. If you put patches in, you cannot "take them out" and your entire install will be hosed. If you already did, you have to start over, install CM11 and pa-gapps ONLY. Really clean the slot out first, either delete it or do an advanced wipe: (Dalvik, Cache, System, Data, Android Secure).

Then install ONLY CM11 and pa-gapps. Many people including myself are reporting that late February builds like 2/26 and 2/27 work really well and are the best so far. Might be a good idea to start with one of those, MAKE A SAFE STRAP BACKUP of that install first, then experiment with whatever you want. At least you can now safely go back t your late Feb backup. Good luck!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
Crap I already flashed the WiFi AP fix. I'll need to start over again tonight. Thanks for your response tho.

Can someone tell me how to fix the issue where I keep getting a popup that says I have "No APN specified on this device"?

whats the difference between the:

and

PA-gapps: Link (MINI MODULAR is best IMO for PA-gapps)

I just got an XT912 (verizon razr - spyder) to play with and i have tried 2 different Roms and both seem to run fine except i cant get MMS to send, i believe i have recieved some but i dont get them to often to make note. IS there a fix? or Rom that MMS works fine? IS there a specific nightly that is recommended? I think i ran 3/1/2014 the other day with no MMS luck. thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
EDIT: NM did a google search and found out the difference between the packages.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
This ROM is running perfect so far on 3/01. As long as it doesn't have that dreaded random sound loss that plagued cm10 I'm gonna stick with this. Thanks cm team
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
I've run into this problem when I do a fresh install too. Boot into ss 3.65 and wipe dalvik, cache, and android secure. I do it a few times. Then reboot. MMS should send after that.

Same instructions. Wipe dalvik, cache, and android system.

if tether is working fine, I wouldn't worry about it. i think the Zip was the same fix that was merged into the ROM

too late lol spent the whole day at work re-downloading apps and setting up the phone
[Motorola Droid RAZR] edgarlz123:
Rom slot magically disappeared

Hi, I was trying to update from 03/01 or 03/04 don´t really remember , to latest nightly via OTA, so I downloaded the update and press to restart but when the phone restarts it appears safestrap disabled, and I boot into safestrap and my rom-slot 1 is gone... I tought... well I have a backup so it´s no big deal, but when I try to recreate a slot I don´t have enough free space... so I think my older slot it´s actually hidden somewhere around there.

Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] drewski_1:
sorry to hear.

a dirty flash would probably have been AOK too so you wouldn't have had to re-download & install your apps :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
All good. Nice to get off of that outdated eclipse 2.1 ROM. Its like a breath of fresh air. I was getting ready to just buy a S4 until I tried this ROM out. Thank god it doesn't have the random sound loss bug!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
is anyone else having problems with accessing the My Verizon Mobile app? I keep getting an error code 1000 problem when i try to open it?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
I too am having this problem. The widget still doesn't work but if you change your settings to sim instead of NV under settings > mobile netwroks > CDMA subscription and change it back once it gets the info the main Verizon app will work again.

I am also having problems receiving MMS messages. no apn specified on device error. I haven't been able to find a way to fix it that works let me know if you find a fix.

Edit: The fix mentioned > https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/nexus/qLgZim--Rm8/DPEy72OOF14J fixes the mms issue but you have to reboot before it takes effect.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
what is the difference between SIM and NV? just want to know what i am messing with so i dont do some kind of fatal error where i have to wipe and restart all over again
[Motorola Droid RAZR] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
NV is internal phone settings storage and SIM is your sim card which stores the same thing. All you have to do is update it to Sim for about a second and then change it back to NV and you are good. But I think that that is what breaks MMS so you have to do the above fix that I mentioned.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
ehhhh verizon mobile isn't that important to me lol thanks anyways
[Motorola Droid RAZR] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
I just use it to monitor my data usage. I hate that it is messed up in the latest builds. Have you filed a bug with cyanogenmod?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kburt8:
Does anyone have more information on the orange bars being a Google problem with KitKat? I hear this mentioned in this thread and others when people complain about this issue (and the crawling data speeds that come with it), but I have yet to see any articles on this. I would think that the tech media would be all over this if stock KitKat users were having these frequent problems.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zero66:
Would like to know myself.

I'm going great using 0301 Nighlty stock kernel. Will update to newer tonight.

Meneldur @ XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
I am on 02/26 and love it! I have a fantastic backup of that install and have used it three times already to get out of "update jams". Last one before this update made me toggle WiFi for GPS and the phone would just stop, get stuck, and reboot by itself, at any time. This might not be any better, we will find out, OTA update in progress.

I have an XT912 Verizon US and you have an

XT912 NOT US

. Results could vary greatly. If it seems to work, I will give it a chance. If obviously not sufficient, then I revert to backup. We can compare experiences to help others with updates on

two, very different models

of the same phone.

...update finished, now running CM11 03/06. Redid Xposed framework. I *love* this "Soft Reboot" option. GPS fired right up, all sats visible, NO gray bars at all, even inside the house. WiFi works right away, connection is great. WiFi AP turns right on, now watching SVU in super high definition on tablet, my phone WiFi AP is providing the internet, no buffering or anything like that. I used my contacts to GPS address to maps, almost instantly. No issues at all. I cannot believe this man, I hardly ever see things THIS good after an update. This one stays and will report back any issues. How is yours working, Meneldur?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
I was researching this myself a couple of days ago. I came across this link: http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1qvdi7/orange_wifi_icon_google_services_screwed_on_kitkat/

If you read through this, there are some interesting solutions. I've tried a couple of them, but I still get orange icons after a while. Someone, several pages back in this thread, had an idea to just have an app toggle airplane mode every hour to make sure that when you do lose google services, at least it comes back every hour. I haven't done that yet, but I might...

Here is one of the solutions from the thread above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxWnpoyaDlM&feature=youtube_gdata_player

The problem with the video is, if you use adfree it is a different host file, so i dont think it works - at least for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
I believe the OP wanted "My Verizon Mobile app" so he could monitor his data usage. I have unlimited data so I never gave it a second thought. But, to save money on my bill, Verizon offered to lower my bill ($120/Mo - $150/Mo actual with taxes and fees.) as much as NINE dollars by taking away unlimited data and putting me on a restricted data plan. Something like 2Gb free, then choke you to "dial up" or charge by the megabyte or some other such nonsense. I told them where to shove that offer.

Since one of the reasons to root and switch to CyanogenMod is to break free from Verizon, their bloatware, charge for apps like their own version of navigator, I am happy to have a Verizon free phone but for the service. The WiFi AP is something they charge you $20/Mo just to "have", never mind if you use it or not.

I did find a really cool data manager app on play store you might like, I think I will try it just to find out where I use most of my data. Go look at My Data Manager and see if you think it will work for you. It has a 4.6 review, that is hard to get, and the data screens are *very* detailed from the pictures and there is a video to watch.

I dumped ALL of my Verizon Bloat, don't miss it one bit, but I think there is/was an account manager you could use to change account settings, pay bills, etc. I might look for that one too.

Here is a GOOD XDA post "My Verizon Mobile apk" on how to make it work, check this out, it might help. I will try it too because being able to access your Verizon Account and tools is pretty important. Just make sure that you use Google for backups. Verizon Backups pretty much marries you to the company.

HTH!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] marlowe310:
Question for anyone with a better understanding of busybox than me - I own busybox pro but I haven't yet activated it on this device; I did on a tablet and had endless boot loops that scared me away.

Is it a good idea at all to install busybox on this ROM? If so, should I use smart install and also the advanced option to remove other copies on boot (I believe from sbin)?

Its weird because it seems so crucial to so many apps but I haven't really had trouble without it.

Also if anyone knows where I might find a good faq or walk though that would also be much appreciated.

Thanks much for any help.

CyanogenMod 11 Milestone 4 Released!

Posted March 8, 2014 at 2:30 am by Will Verduzco

CyanogenMod 11 Milestone 4 Released!

There are quite a few major players in the source-built custom ROM world nowadays, but undoubtedly the most prominent is still CyanogenMod. Having made a name for itself way back when on the G1, the CM team now officially supports a rather extensive list of devices, and has contributed a great deal to the Android community at large.

Nearly one month ago, the team reached Milestone 3 status for their Android 4.4 KitKat-based CyanogenMod 11. Now, the team has finished work on Milestone 4, which means that we’re just that much closer to CM11 Final.

The new release brings quite a few updates, including a tweaked recent apps panel for low end devices, various bug fixes, expanded profiles support, left-hand mode for the system navbar, a new Easter Egg, and much more. These changes are covered in greater detail on the CyanogenMod Blog.

Those looking to get in on the latest M4 action should head over to the CM Downloads link below. The builds are currently in the process of compiling, and should be available for your download pleasure as soon as they’re fresh out of the oven.

Is there a work-around or app that folks are using in conjunction with their vehicle dock?

I miss the functionality of the vehicle dock mode when I have the phone snapped into the dock (in the landscape orientation) when driving/nav'ing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dwillian:
Not sure if we will get the M4 release for our phones. We never received the M3 release for some reason. Although we did receive the M2 release.

Does anyone know why or who to contact to find out?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
Maybe Stargo has some info. I am curious if the M4 has the omap fixes too?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mr-Glass:

It is hard to say you have a file, app, or anything that you want to run on Android from another time. Busybox, so far as I understand it, is just a collection of tools used by the kernel and shell to perform root activities like file permissions, etc. I am running a search now on my phone for busybox just to see if CM11 uses it and where it is. Found one on root of ExtSDCard, should not be there. 2 more found, searching. I got 3, only one of which is recent, like yesterday when i updated. Other two are very old and oudated. And there is a busybox-xposed for the exposed modules.

Dude, CM11 comes with everything it needs to work and be as rooted as it gets. This is also Kit Kat, a brand new animal. If you put your own version of busybox in the system, I am sure you will wreck the phone. Don't do it!

If you get stuck in a boot loop, you might have to start all over again from scratch. Is there anything at all that this "busybox" does that you cannot live without, or does anything special, that you know of? I wouldn't do it.

I just bought greenify a couple of months ago, answer to all my prayers to tame down a non-responsive phone. I can still install and use Greenify, but it adds nothing to CM11 that is not already there. Cyanogen did good work on this release, don't mess with it man. Just my 2¢.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Aximander:
For those who are using xposed.... Are you running dalvik or ART? I read somewhere it does not work with ART.

Btw, I'm running Slimkat and Jbx on ART. So far so good. Although I think I should have run non-jbx a bit before installing it.

EDIT: Wiped Dalvik and Cache, and still having problems. Going to try the 3/08 nightly.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
It's nice to read your joy, friend. :)

I had no time to upgrade. Still on 0301 with nasty battery consumption (11.3/hr). Besides that, ROM works like a charm.

I'll upgrade as soon as I can.

PS: I have a XT910, not XT912. We use GSM down here.

Meneldur @ XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dwillian:
OK, we did get the M4 release. I installed it, but it put my phone into a boot loop. Going back to the 3/8 nightly which was working very well on my phone.

I did do a dirty flash of the M4 release. Maybe it requires a clean install? Has anyone gotten the M4 release to run on their phone?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
Does anyone else on 3/01 have nasty battery consumption like this guy?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adistf:
Fresh install today. CM 11 M4 using ART. It works very good. Flawless. I have an xt910. No signal drop,no lag at all so far. Can't say nothing about battery just yet.

Dirty flash of M4 caused boot loop on my xt912. So a clean install must be required. Which gapps did you use?

Yes. Clean install(also tried dirty wich caused fc after fc when booted) and this gapps for ART -pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.2-
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Omegadrive:
Also did a dirty install of M4 and encountered FCs all over, did a clean install afterwards and all has been running sweet so far. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Oh gosh, I really meant to say XT910, just hit the wrong key. 11.3 hours on one battery? That is not "horrible" for someone that uses the phone all day long. The back-light probably uses the most battery out of everything. Having the phone on but not using, checking, or lighting the screen should not use much battery and you could get 2 days or more like that. There are xposed modules that limit the CPU power when screen is blanked. This should help a LOT if your phone is not lit most of the day. Trickster used to offer all that stuff, but without the jbx kernel, Trickster is pretty much gutted of all "the good stuff". My phone has been running really good for a long time so I tried JBX again, not good, ruined the phone. Had to restore the bacup. Stargo sent a msg not to use jbx right now, all the work that went into the CM11 kernel to stop signal loss, black screens, and other problems were not passed on to the jbx author. Stargo sent him the information and future versions of jbx might work well again. Some folks say jbx works great but not for me, and they are using roms like carbon and liquid. Different animals.

Not sure what to tell you about battery life improvement except that there are a LOT of xposed modules that are very powerful and may help you. You just have to ask around or pick the right ones. "Android Tuner Free" has 5 pages of stuff, lots of things on each page, many options for battery. Might want to look into it. Best wishes!

---------- Post added at 04:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

Dalvik. Just getting this to run right, good, smooth, and reliable were quite challenging and certain builds were MUCH better than others. Not even jbx works good on CM11 for me, too unstable. Stargo recommended against it, saying that the work put into the CM11 kernel to stop signal loss, black screen, and other problems have not been imported into jbx yet. He did send his kernel update information to the jbx author so maybe later releases will be good. I am staying away from ART until I am really happy with what I got and am bored enough to try it.

The Xposed modules are so freaking amazing and built right into the OS to interact directly with the kernel that I won't give that up without a fight. Those modules are amazing if you pick the right ones.

Where did you get M4 for Spyder? I don't see it in OTA. I heard about it and wanted it pretty bad. I am looking forward to a completely clean install like I want to hammer nails into my head. But, if that is the only way forward, then I will have to eat it, sooner or later. Are there updates to M4 now that you have it in the Settings/About/Updates OTA updates menu?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Noe!:
Hmm. Why not just download it through the Cyanogenmod website? That's where I downloaded mine. Unless OTA updater makes updating from there better or something? Maybe I'm just not aware of that since I almost always download through the website instead of the updater.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adistf:
I have a umts_spyder. I did got OTA this morning,when i checked for new release. I was surprised. And i'm still surprised because it performs very well. And the battery drops are gone( i got drops from 28 to 20 and from 8℅ to 4℅.) I think the battery callibration is right now.

Should I wait, then? I don't want to do a clean install (too lazy) ;)

[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
I have that battery drops in every rom.

You say that you don't have them no more with this build?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] chinkster:
Can someone tell me if the M4 fixed the group text message issue? I'm still on 3/01 and that's the only problem so far
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wilkster:
It was pointed out to me that if you have any recent nightly builds installed it is recommended you wipe data+system before you install M4. There is a note on the CM website about this. I had lots of fc with a dirty flash but a clean flash cleared it all up.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ChungHung.Chen:
There are some system settings "mismatch" with M4 and previous nightly.

I've upgrade to M4 from 03/06 last night and it's smooth.

But I need to do a "Fresh" install including factory reset to got M4 work.

Here is my installation (all with cm11 stock kernel) :

1. Keep /data, wipe /system, then install M4 => FC

2. Wipe /system and /data, then install M4 => Boot OK no FC.

=> 2.1 Restore system settings from TB => FC ( no other user apps but TB )

=> 2.2 Factory reset again, setup system settings manually, and restore apps from TB => All OK!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] control187:
Anyone trying M4 on the stock slot? The last time I wiped system on stock slot things went sideways, so I would only do data and cache before flashing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sherri:
Could anyone tell me if you can get the led to blink with the screen ON?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ChungHung.Chen:
Hi,

I've installed M4 on stock slot / safestrap / XT910.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] LumberjackZac:
Been on the 2-24 nightly with amazing battery life "at the very least 18 hours of heavy use" and didn't want to upgrade to a nightly with battery drain issues. Whats good folks?

That's too much,something prevents your phone from sleeping.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheYama:
Hi,

I have the same problem - After install M4 over 3/6, I try wipe dalwik+cache, set permission but not working - FCs - error in process com.phone etc.

When I try install back 3/6 I have bigger FCs then with M4.

But I try to install newest 3/9 nightly over M4 and allready OK. Working fine.

I hope its help you ;)
