I'm expecting the official nightlies to be usable, I think the days of the ROMs that don't do anything have passed. I'm sure there will be issues with such a big update. Thinking I should get a phone I like and leave it alone but that would be boring.:p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] StyxD:
Hi, just made a clean wipe and installed 16/11 nightly with 1.1.9 Googy-Max Kernel. Everything's buttery smooth and battery saving is great, but I'm experiencing REALLY slow data connection under HSDPA. Is there a modem upgrade I've missed ? With last nightly installed (15/10) there was no problem at all.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Mamica:
Hi guys,i'd like to install this ROM and i wonder to know how is the battery life or what is the best combination for a good battery life. Thx in advance
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] vedko:
try it for yourself, that's the best advice you'll get here.

plus the most of us forgot what the battery life experience with the stock ROM was anyway, including me ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] L.F.B.:
Wow 1119 has a lot of: "Merge branch 'cm-11.0' into stable/cm-11.0" modifications...

Are we going to a final version of CM 11?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 78Staff:
Noticed that as well... took CyanDelta forever to d/l also.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kridster:
Do not remove too many apps

Hey guys,

I just wanted to share my recent, though self inflicted, issues.

I'm using CM on different devices quite a while. Wanting to optimize my setup, I created a ZIP which removes certain apps I did not need.

At least I thought so. One of these apps is the HTMLViewer. To me, it was quite annoying to choose from the app dialog, which app I want to edit files with. The stock CM editor is asking this every time. So I simply removed it.

Now I wanted to upgrade to another monthly release and I got the error:

I repeated the upgrade with the monthly release, I was already on (M11). The original ZIP wa sstill saved on the internal storage. Same error. Hm. Now I looked into the updater-script and pinpointed the culprit. The signature check depends on the HTMLViewer.apk to look into certain files. Oh boy..

Now I simply extracted this apk from the ZIP and installed it manually. The flashing procedure afterwards was successful.

Maybe this helps someone, because it drove me crazy :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
Can someone confirm

In last two nigthly bbs report that msm_camera service drain battery drasticaly.

To verify this make or receive a call and after 10/15 min you should notice that battery going down very fast and enabling front camera receive camera FC, reboot fix issue until next call

No problem with 1117 nightly
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pod0087:
Yep, happening to me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Photo made with front camera of STOCK CM AOSP camera.

I didn't notice any drain. Have you cleaned cache and data of the camera app? One has to do it always when there are some camera related changes, but that's not always easy to understand. Anyway every time you get issues with camera, go to settings, apps, and delete cache and data of the camera and gallery apps. In your case I would also clean phone /dialer and people apps.

Edit:

Forgot to mention, I'm on 19th of Nov nightly. But I haven't noticed the issue you described with earlier builds. Last few builds I was running were 18th and 15th of Nov.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
tried to clear cache and data of camera and dialer but if i answer to a call, battery drain begin :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
I also use Better Battery Stats, and there is no sign of msm_camera service in the stats, neither kernel wakelocks (where you are finding it I suppose.) nor in partial. Only 'msm' wakelock I can see is msm_hsic_host under kernel wakelocks, and that guy was holding the wakelock for six minutes today, so I would say nothing special. I have more problems with 'overflow' partial wakelock of Google play services, which was holding it for almost 10 min. Second partial is proximity, only two minutes, so nothing serious.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] SnoopyDog:
Yep, i also have the msim_hsic_host which drains the battery a lot when i have no Wifi connection.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Autocompletion went bad. I wanted to say it is not that bad regarding msm_hsic_host.

It can be normal if it drains more battery when you are off wireless, since the radio has been active than. If you have mobile data turned off, than it could be a bug, in not sure. On the end it depends on what exactly is 'a lot' for you?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JTaylor69:
Looks like my front camera has stopped working :(

Back camera works fine.

Logcat of taking a photo with front camera on Google Camera:

Any idea what may be causing it or any way about going to fix it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] moffe:
Works fine for me with latest 21.dec nightly... Tested with CM camera and Google.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] carole6m:
Clean installed 11/18, camera stops working frequently, volume resets to lowest after screen is turned off, bluetooth disables wifi, etc. Dirty flashed 11/21 over it and camera, volume and bluetooth all work fine now.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
2111 nightly same problem, after clean install.

no app installed only latest pa gapps but don't think this can be related to battery drain...:confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Which kernel are you on? Maybe Googey? Some people running it have reported significantly increased battery drain. In the other side, I actually use the kernel in the last time, and it works quite well for me. Battery drain actually decreased in my case.

The drain is allegedly related to arch_power kernel feature, which he enabled. But as I said, I have no issues with it, except it maybe even helps (because I noticed slightly better, could be placebo and other factors, battery life.).

Didn't notice in CM changelog they experimented with it, so if you happen to run stock kernel, all of this is it not related to your problem.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
usually i used alucard kernel, but make test with cm11 2111 all stock also kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
And what did you say is the culprit, still camera?

Also tell us about times wakelocks have been used. Just seeing a wakelock being used doesn't mean something bad happened. Same applies to those on the top. Being on the top only says it is among those processes which holed the wakelock most of times, but this can and is perfectly normal.

On the other side, if you see a process holding a wakelock for a day, hours, or maybe even minutes (depending on what you do with your phone) than you know that something had gone wrong.

Today morning a sync process of Google Chrome went crazy, and hold the wakelock for half a hour (first off battery half an hour.). So despite screen was off all that time, CPU haven't seen sleep at all, and wakelock was active.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
i'm not an expert but on bbs i see only msm_camera drain 10% x hour and every app that use camera FC or report "camera is busy" as if the camera is in use but i don't use camera i'm sure.

Maybe it's a coincidence but the issue appear when battery is around 80%

sorry for my bad english, i'm trying to explain better possible. :o
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 78Staff:
I've been using stock kernel ever since they changed the code a while back - used to use KToonsez for longest time but now not even sure what kernel's are even compatible for JFLTE/i337
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] 1weener:
I'm on the stock camera and I'm having no problems whatsoever. I can also report that battery life has never been better with actual days of use with over 5 hours screen time... It's been unreal in a good way.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
Something is seriously ****ed up. You said you have tried clean installs, and the issue persist... Regarding these installs, did you always use same file to flash cm? Probably not, since there are new nightlies every day. But check the checksum always. Same for the gapps.

What also comes to my mind as a possibility, that some kind of file corruption on internal sdcard triggers a bug in a camera /gallery, so I would try formating data partition completely, including internal sdcard. If even that doesn't help (but it will, let's be optimistic.) you can only try going to another ROM, I would suggest stock, or Samsung based one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fdc77:
i think you are right, i will do a full wipe/format and report result in next days.

thank you
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simonbigwave:
same here. 1122 nightly camera fine. no FC at all. battery seems "normal" so far. default kernel. agree last few nighlies feel very good.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sronweb:
On today's nightly there is an update about UMS support. If I select mass storage I don't have the capability to mount the phone on my pc with ubuntu. MTP is working as before. Anyone tried?

I would probably say the same in such situation, but when you think about it, it is not that strange. Considering that you are the only one for now with the issue, I would go out from some kind of the file (configuration or application files.) or file system corruption.

Is it correct that when using profiles, notification sounds of the stock email-app is set to silent and is stuck on it? Turning profiles off gets the notification sound back and is changeable again. It seems that the profile manager is doing "something" with it. And I noticed that (in comparison with older Cm versions, there is no "App groups" tab in the profile manager.

Installed CM11 Snapshot M12 on my jflte I9505, and found a few of the apps I installed(Antutu Benchmark and Foldermount) crashed due to the same error, android.app.RemoteServiceException Couldn't create notification icon. Any ideas? Anyone having the same problem? :confused:

Edit: If I Deny Antutu Benchmark and Foldermount's requests for permission for Notification/Toast with App Ops under Settings->Privacy->Advanced, Antutu Benchmark and Foldermount stopped crashing, and worked flawlessly without the permission. Seems something is wrong with the notification package? On Stock Samsung KK ROM and Google Edition ROM by Jamal Antutu Benchmark and Foldermount worked just fine and never crashed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Too many issues with the M12 build... here's a quick list:

Wi-Fi will randomly not want to turn on. Other times it will connect to my Wi-Fi network but no data will be transmitted. No issues on other devices. No idea why. Reboot fixes it. - Still happening on Dalvik

Proximity sensor sometimes still not turning the screen on after a call 50% of the time. Pressing the home button to exit the dialer app and then hang up the call from the notification menu is the workaround.

Random delays to turn on the screen from sleep. No idea why this occurs. Sometimes it comes back on if I leave it, other times I have to force it to reboot.

Strange battery drain after using the camera (I think). Some days my device barely lasts 9 hours, others it's fine and can last around 15. Reboot stops the battery drain.

Phone sometimes turns itself off completely when entering panorama mode. I had 20% battery and my battery is OK, don't know why this happened. This was after taking a few photos - let the device charge for a bit and it was fine after that. Weird.

Alarm clock app is completely unreliable. If I enable an alarm it goes completely haywire, enabling and disabling the alarm constantly. Cleared data, did not help. Have to use third party alarm app. Edit: Still happens on Dalvik

"OK Google" command not working when screen on or plugged in. Tried to set it up again, and will not recognise my voice at all when saying "OK Google". Voice works fine if I press the microphone button though... could be an app specific issue. - Fixed by switching to dalvik, but can be hit-and-miss using hotword when screen is off

Sometimes copying files via MTP (to or from the device) is SLOW. Seems to randomly hang on large files. Tried from two Windows 8.1 64bit machines and different (yes, high quality) cables and the same issue occurred on both. Solution is to unplug and replug the device. It sometimes comes good after that. I copy files over Wi-Fi as a result of this - USB is way too flaky to rely on. Nexus 7 is fine with same cable and PC. - Same issue on Dalvik

Not sure if this is a kernel or bootloader issue, but if you reboot or try to power on whilst having a USB cable plugged in (charging or USB, doesn't matter) the bootloader will get confused and display the battery charging interface rather than booting Android.

You'd think after 12 M-Snapshots that silly bugs wouldn't be an issue. Yes I'm a somewhat heavy user but it's becoming difficult to recommend cyanogenmod phones when I have such an annoying experience with my own device.

Edit: Recently did a factory reset, so no it's not that. It might be due to the fact that I'm running ART on my device, so I just switched back to Dalvik and will update this post in about a week's time.
