Not yet, but huge commits changes on framework base and packages Themes Provider are a good sign. Problem is no one really knows how much time will CM support Dalvik or Xposed begin to support ART.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simonbigwave:
ya, jus remember the M-snapshot builds are actually "behind" the nightly builds usually. Thats why i prefer nightly. And for me, 90-98% time the nightly is stable enough for daily driver.

Yes, I had same problem with CM10.2.1 as well as CM11. Don't believe those guys when tell you it's SIM card fault, cause it's not!! It's happening to lot of users arround the world. I tried all kind of tricks,but no success. Got back to Omega ROM v33 and had no problem what so ever.

This is signal to CM guys to solve this problem as well as graphic glitch. Maybe we'll get CM 11.1 as perfect ROM. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] anjo88:
graphic glitch is killing me right now :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] !crazy:
No. That is happening all the time, and you now just demonstrated the wrong understanding of what M is.

That was discussed a lot of times and from CM developers self explained. M is just what it is, and neither per definition nor in reality is more stable than nightlies. Nightlies change more often, and sometimes are less stable than M, but sometimes are also more stable. If you have time to hang out here and follow the situation and changelogs, you are probably better served with nightlies than M.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] NZgeek:
Rule #1 of XDA is to search before you post. If you don't try to see if the answer is already there, you can expect to be told off for not checking.

And just to make the answer searchable for the future:

The M builds are monthly builds, or might be called milestone builds by some. The code is "stable" because it only receives changes that have been tested by the community via nightly builds. However, because of the way that changes are pulled across, it's entirely possible for the M builds to be far less stable than the nightly builds.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] simonbigwave:
Since the last 3-6 months of daily flashing nightlies, i have never had any SIM card problem with any of my CM11 nightlies... perhaps you had a bad download or did something wrong?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] knirirr:
OK, no problem, thanks.

It did originally seem like a CM problem as it appeared very soon after flashing a nightly and appeared to change in frequency with subsequent flashes, but it must definitely have been the SIM as there have been no further recurrences after replacing it.

Are you sure you're really doing a clean install? Factory reset isn't enough, you need to delete Dalvik+Cache+System+Data+Internal Storage.

well, I always was (and still I am) a fan of cyanogenmod from almost very first beginning using almost always samsung phones... I remember how delighted I was when I passed to cm9 which came at that time with a lot of features and tweaks.

time passed away, and my hobby is (I hope not was) to flash a new nighlty, like many of us :)

but... and here it comes the bad part, from time to time I send voice messages using whatsapp. what a surprise: I try to hear my own messages and unfortunately are full of crap noise: all my sent vocal messages are pitched distorted sound, equalizer is useless, volume is fluctuating and hard to hear.

comparing with 2 other S4-i9505 phones, one with stock rom and one with google edition rom, shortly I'm getting embarrassed. I'm forced to test myself a google edition rom to avoid any hardware issue: after flashing latest danvdh ge rom, indeed sounds gets crystal clear and louder enough to push volume down. again, I'm talking about my voice messages through whatsapp, I'm afraid to test it more further in other apps...

something else I've noticed was that taking a picture with S4/cm11 is a nightmare. any camera application is taking horrible pictures. worst pictures I ever made. worst than my wife's s2-i9100 using stock. all camera apps are taking blurred, washy, colorless pictures, like image stabilization doesn't exist at all. default cm11 camera is not so worse, but unfortunately it's far away from good.

I always gave all my respect to cyanogenmod rom as much as I did for the every effort of cyanogen team,

but... after many years of cyano, I wonder: is it worth it? I mean which will I choose: stock rom and find a way to optimize and tweak it or keep cm11 in spite of ****ed video and audio drivers (no offense), but with many useful features.

will see...

Hi all guys, a question for you all.

Is it possible in any way to add a toggle tile for "screen always on". I didn't find a tile specific for that. The light timer already in the ROM doesn't do the same job..

Thank u
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jcasares:
I feel your pain. But it's not only CM to blame. GS4 camera is clearly worse than my old GS2. Images are sometimes blurry and/or grainy. This is clearly my last Samsung because of this and many other thing but it might be my last CM as well. A lot of reported bugs get no attention and we still see them after 8 months of being reported. Features are getting removed without a clear advantage on doing so.

CM is now a business so I doubt we will see the progress and dedication we saw in the old times. The problem is that no other ROM took its place yet.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] jcasares:
Just yesterday I made some comparisons between an S4 with CM11 and a stock based one. The photos we took had the same issues. So I don't agree with the common idea that the stock camera is better. It could be on some cases but the camera is bad nonetheless and you can't get really good photos from it by using stock.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] sancho_panzer:
Try another kernel, don't blame CM already. You will see on other threads lots of complaints about WhatsApp, even on themes and launchers threads. You should blame WhatsApp in first place.

Stock and GPE have dedicated drivers, closed source and not available to anyone else. Once again CM isn't the culprit, blame Samsung for being as stupid as Apple.

Did you tried Snap camera?

You and everyone here should. They're pioneers and Android world would have been much worse without them.

It depends on what you consider useful. For me camera and video are way far from my priorities on my phone. Only camera is superior on Stock and GPE, nothing else, if you want CM similar experience on these you'll have to install Xposed.

CyanogenMod is about innovation, usefulness and privacy. They always tried hard to be useful to community finding solutions and alternative paths, for free. Don't blame CM if phone brands don't give a damn about users, closing code, thinking only on $$$.
