Why has the issue with recording video using Snapchat with the front camera never been fixed since the very first CM11 nightly?

The issue does not exist on other ROMs such as Gummy.

The issue is only present with Snapchat, recording video with the front camera using the camera app works fine.

Must this mean the issue is app related instead of ROM? (If so, then why does it not occur on other ROMs)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JTaylor69:
Receiving a fair few hangs with the latest nightly.

Often can be seen by turning on "Show touches" and then performing tasks; you will see that the touch stays there while everything hangs and then resolves after 5 seconds.

Also getting lots of screen flickering, even with GPU rendering.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] subscope:
Someone have sreen flickering? :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sh4z:
@JTaylor69 I had this issue also on 2014-06-16-nightly. Seems to have settled now though... not sure if it will happen again. Also had some lag while browsing (scrolling mainly). Also which nightly are you using? I am running stock kernel. no performance adjustments.

Strangely occured after I wiped all data to resolve some battery issues I've been having. No flickering or lag before wipe, just android system chewing up battery like a beast :P

After wipe and disabling some apps, battery life has doubled. from 8hrs to 16hrs (w/23% left) with light use.

I will have to test it longer though to see if it will improve any further.

I was able to get 2days battery life out of one of the old nightlies with similar light usage.

I'll probably end up upgrading soon anyway, development moves so quickly on this ROM it's hard to know what base to test! :lol: for all I know the latest nightly might have fixed this issue already - I am a couple days behind everyone else.

To confirm whether it's just me or an issue that is still apparent I'll wipe + Install the latest nightly soon.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simonbigwave:
Yup. same here flickering still on 620 nightly. (GPU rendering or performance mode doesn't help either)...but No FCs or RR..so far.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] twcobra:
iI had the flicker but it seems to have gone away in power save profile. I also had the FC problem but it looks, like it was a dirty flash issue going from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 I think a clean install for 6/20 is recommended.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] SnoopyDog:
LTE is/was working in 0618 and 0620 builds for me. I also don't see graphic glitches.

Heads up notifications in today's nightly was kinda cool, not having to open up notifications to see what it's about.

No glitches here, but I'm running the latest GPU drivers from qualcomm posted 30/05, also did a clean install yesterday to 06/20.

No LTE issues here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] aleksik:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] frapeti:
Hi, dunno if it's already reported but I found a bug in your device repo, in init.qcom.rc, in power saving performance profile you are calling conservative governor which is disabled on kernel, so what happens? Performance governor is selected and our battery is drain even worse than with equilibrated profile. You can use ondemand instead or enable conservative governor again in kernel config

Thanks for the honest reply. I guess I'll have to stick a bit more with TouchWiz, as much as I hate it. I would like to change it, but I won't do it right before a trip, where I know I'm gonna be rather depending on my phone being able to locate me when needed, or do a quick search after connecting momentarily to the only working free hotspot around (and of course, taking a quick snap).

I guess I'll have to wait for a proper camera before attempting CM...I'll look maybe to the Project Blackbox rom, hope they iron out some of their bugs...

Thank you [MENTION=4819176]ciborio[/MENTION]. You're actually doing something to get these bugs fixed.

And [MENTION=3117242]iamnotkurtcobain[/MENTION] could you please stop spamming every thread by saying the developers are idiots? Maybe you didn't say it so directly but it's so annoying and seems like that.

I think everyone knows the compass bug and telling the developer's are idiots won't fix it.

Maybe be fixed in future nightly.

Mobile connection

Hey,

Running the latest nightly and flashed MK9 modem which is correct for my country but I still have random drops on mobile connection. Does any one else experience this? Any advice on what I could try to sort out the issue?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jwedda:
I've had it on CM10.2 and I think earlier versions as well. Still have it on last nights nightly.

On the old and new boatloader with at least 3 different basebands, even now the latest MK9.

I'm on latest nightly and MK9 modem and no problems with the connection. Are you on CM kernel or different?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jd1001:
Hey, I'm on the CM kernel do you think flashing KT kernel or something could help with the mobile connection issues I am having?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] p.brazauskas:
Don't know, actually I thought you on some different kernel so would of suggested to go with stock CM, but I guess it goes both ways try KT kernel for a change you never know. :confused:

Charging while Off

Hi, I'm new with i9505 and I have rooted it as I'm very happy with the CM 11 on my little i9195. As the little one I have CWM 6.0.4.9 with latest 21 June nightly, but on the big i9505 I'm not able to charge it while is off. Once the phone is off and I plug it to the wall it is hanging on the battery screen and it is getting hot; after if I disconnect it I have to push the power button for a while and turn it on. So the only way to recharge this phone is to plug it while is On.

Any idea, please? Thank you all
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] aleksik:
Use a file explorer which has access to system files, I use Root Explorer. Go to /system folder. There you have a text file called build.prop. Open it with a text editor so you can edit it. Scroll down until you see line 'ro.sf.lcd_density=480'. 480 is the default dpi, change it to for example 441 as I do. Then save the edit and exit the file explorer and reboot. After the reboot you should have a lot better looking screen view. Hope this helps :)

Did that before, and did it again now and still have the flickering. Might be related to the development build of Trebuchet I'm using but I remember having it with the bundled one with a recent build. That's why I reverted to 0601 before but wanted to try again. :/

If you still get the issue then try a different cable or charger.

I use File Explorer' to change the build.prop. You need to go into settings and tick the 2 options 'mount system folder' and 'root explorer'. When you go into build.prop choose File Explorer as your 'text editor' and make your change. Click on 'save' and then go back into the build.prop to check it has retained your value, then restart. I always set mine to 380, as it looks more elegant.

For all that have GRAPHIC FLICKERING.

I have the solution.

Search in build.prop for

persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=true

Change to

persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=false

AND add

debug.composition.type=gpu

underneath it so you have

persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=false

debug.composition.type=gpu

and save the build.prop

reboot.

Enjoy.
