Just flashed the newest nightly didn't notice much of a difference although I guess it's not to be expected with how new cm11 is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scarmon25:
Based on the change log it was some camera HAL work and some framework stuff. Probably won't see any visual changes for a few builds. From what I'm seeing most is back end stuff to sturdy up the build. Maybe its prep work for features to work when they bring them over. Hell if I know LOL.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slash8915:
Alright, so I DID run into a small problem. The screen never actually goes to sleep. The backlight will dim, but the screen just stays on unless I press the power button.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scarmon25:
Mine does I do believe. I will test this. How did you come to this conclusion?

---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Based on the short testing I just did it seems as if I met my screen go to sleep on its own and few seconds after it goes off the phone does enter sleep mode. Seems like it takes about 30 seconds from the time the screen goes dark for it to fall asleep. That is actually normal. Meant to take you back in case it goes dark before you wanted it to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lw00d:
what is ART??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Double tap to wake must not be fully implemented, yet.

I'm having an odd issue on the 22nd build it seems that every time I plug in the charger it flash's a white screen then the screen can't be turned back on and i have to battery pull any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Just tried to recreate on mine. I'm not experiencing this so I can't help.

Yeah! dustinb updated my favorite theme to work with CM11! Cobalt Gunmetal is back!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonair95:
I have not. The only issue I have with the dialer is turning the screen on/off during a call which makes it impossible to select select dialer options.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] efaden:
Is there a list of known issues somewhere?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
.avi files not working.

Also, no sound with mkv movie. Dragon Bruce Lee story mkv.

Using act1 and stock gallery player.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
There is i the last 8-10 pages of this thread. Some may have been addressed in the last few nightlies, too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vdefender:
I am also waiting for that feature. But let me tell you something very odd. When I first switched from cm10.2 (with working avrcp) to cm11... the avrcp worked on cm11. I Think is has to do with flashing directly from cm10.2 to 11. But after a few weeks my phone locked up one day while playing bluetooth music and I had to battery pull, after the reboot avrcp hasn't worked since. I am thinking about re-fashing cm10.2 and then flashing back to cm11 again to see if it will carry over again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
If you do that and it works, please let us know. As an FYI, I originally dirty flashed from 10.2 to 11 and lost avrcp metadata functionality.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vdefender:
I will give it a try today and report back. Oddly enough, I clean flashed from 10.2 to 11, and had working avrcp. It seriously doesn't make much sense that it would have kept working but it did.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonair95:
Try MX Player
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sherdog16:
Is there a way to get more lock screen targets?

This in call dialer thing is frustrating. Anyone know of a fix?

When viewing photos on a computer, the orientation is always landscape, even if it is a portrait photo. Anyone else finding this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dmarden:
This is a Samsung thing and it depends on the viewer. Samsung sets orientation via EXIF designation instead of the more normal way (by actually setting dimensions). It's annoying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] isaacfinnegan:
I can play all these video types fine with vlc. And the built on player. Mkv and avi are just container formats, so it may be the encoding.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonair95:
Cool I'll try VLC. MX player freezes a lot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
1/23 made my Bluetooth issues worse.

I use bluetooth + GPS + Apollo / Pandora + make / receive calls + voice text.

Apollo and Pandora are skipping more and garbled intermittent. Able to fix with a pause/play or close/reopen app.

Might go back to 1/17.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MustGoFast:
Any idea when the next release might go Milestone build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
There is nothing special about milestone builds other than the name and the date.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jorceshaman:
I thought that the commits were somewhat cherry picked to be stable as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kench33:
This supports SD cards right? I heard that kit kat didn't work or something with SD cards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaeKay:
Works fine. Just different directories from tw roms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
kK supports SD cards without issue. What is an issue is the stock camera not supporting SD card storage currently
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krypto1300:
Is it just the stock camera? I'm using Camera fx Zoom and I can save to extsd. I'm running CM11 M2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaeKay:
If you want to save pictures to sd card, you have to use an Xposed module. I think it was pics2sd or something
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Correct. If using the stock camera saving to SD is borked. If using Xposed or a third party camera app you're good.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
Nope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MustGoFast:
I'll respectfully disagree. If there was nothing "special" then why have them at all. My understand is they are supposed to represent a "stable" delivery of a feature group.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KB!:
I dirty flashed 1/22 nightly and it will not let me hang up from a phone call when using bluetooth it recognizes that I hit the end button as the red end button changes color but does not end the call... I have to long press the back button which takes me to the call log but it still shows the call as connected in the status bar... If I long press the back button again it will exit the call log and remove the phone call from the status bar.... I reflashed the 1/18 build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bmcclure937:
Can anyone provide a quick rundown of the steps I should take to upgrade from CM10.2 to CM11??

Greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
My method is to wipe data, system, and cache, then factory reset, then flash ROM, and last flash appropriate Gapps.

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

I have a new bug with Android Keyboard in the 1/22 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bmcclure937:
What method do you use to backup apps/data to make the transition smoother? I was mostly concerned with this process when moving to KitKat since I was not sure if Titanium Backup and options like that would function properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
TiBu works perfectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] griffsterb:
How is 11 overall right now? I am on the 12/05 "stable" 10.2 which still has some issues. Mostly I have not been able to move any files to my external SD card from my PC via USB since I went from 10.1.3 to 10.2. Don't know if that is an issue with some settings (I haven't been able to find any) or the ROM. Anyway, I want to try 11 if it is at the very least 'mostly usable.'
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SinfulRoad:
Roman, the founder of AOKP is now working for Cyanogen, good news for us. Kind of thankful I switched from AOKP after almost 3 years because of their slow kitkat rollout.

YouTube is hit or miss with loading videos. Bluetooth stutter and garbling with Pandora and music player random intermittent while driving. Overall stable. No reboots or FCs.

Running 1/23 with pagapps 1/23.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] griffsterb:
Thanks - I actually had a lot of the same problems with 10.2, so I guess I won't be seeing much of a difference. Just got 1/24 nightly loaded in the last hour, working well so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] odub303:
You should do some research before disagreeing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] invisiblek:
Consider an M build to be a "monthly" build. We try to do a feature freeze before them for about a week and focus only on bugfixes (so as to not introduce new bugs) so they *should* be more stable than a nightly, but in reality aren't much different than say the nightly from the night before.

Anyone else getting an"unsupported picture format" when attempting to share downloaded images to SMS? Driving me nuts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] the_jaguar:
I am completely lost for an explanation here and I would really appreciate some help:

I installed the jan 20th build on Monday night and I haven't restricted background data updates, etc for all my applications, but every time I am on wi-fi, I notice my battery getting drained super fast. Initially, I thought it was a specific router, but then I noticed that the drain was occurring on various wi-fi networks. Finally, I looked into my data usage and am seeing something super weird. Here is the usage while on wi-fi (usage on 4G is minimal) in the last 4 days:

Google Keyboard (2.23GB all of which is in the background)

Google+ (1.7GB, almost all of it in the background, but this might be due to me enabling back up of all my photos and videos to Google+)

Bunch of remaining apps that account for ~1GB of data usage)

Can anybody help me understand why in the world would Google Keyboard need 2.23GB of data in 4 days?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaeKay:

I just ran into this problem, the other day, on BeanStalk. A clean install remedied the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KB!:
Anyone else having problems with Bluetooth and being able to hang up from a call on 1/22 nightly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MustGoFast:
"Starting with the September 2012 M1 build, the CyanogenMod team began monthly "M-series" releases. At the beginning of each month, a soft freeze of the CyanogenMod codebase is put into effect; once the team deems a build stable enough for daily use, it is released under the milestone or "M" series.[36]"

here's the note from their wiki on when they started it. I don't intend to fall into a personal debate since neither of us personally knows the answer. I would return my previous question. Why bother with M releases and their own CM announcements about them if they are just "another nightly" as you put it.

Edit: Also post 1422 from invisiblek (an actual dev) seems to suggest what I've stated all along. I'm done with my research.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I have read that as well. My understanding is when a "M" build is released it is to represent some level of stability in the current version. Some of the items that the development team labels as stable may not be a feature or function, but may be a series of "behind the scenes" coding that works as intended.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jkc120:
software nav doesn't register taps

Is anyone using software nav buttons? If so, can you reproduce it missing taps? The easiest way I've found to reproduce is to:

- tap app drawer button and immediately tap home button as fast as you can

Half the time on the 1/18 build, it'd miss the tap on home. This is just how I can reproduce it, I've seen the same behavior as an example if I tap into an app then try to hit back for example.

This works flawlessly on cm 10.2 and aokp jb mr2, so it's definitely a kitkat thing. I observed the same behavior on aokp's kitkat builds fwiw.

Sorry to ask again, but I wasn't sure if perhaps this had been fixed since the 1/18 nightly!

Thanks in advance!

They also take bug reports on M builds, but not nightlies. This way, it gives a frame of reference, and easily duplicated setup when bug testing.

The only feature I still miss is setting a different lockscreen wallpaper. It looks like the only work done on this hasn't been updated since Dec 14. :(

I see little problems and bugs here and there... But overall what you guys think of CM11?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
Its great. Wait till tommorrows nightly. Bluetooth streaming garbly random, otherwise its a daily.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yooeee:
agreed, it's very stable (i installed weeks ago because carbonrom is taking forever to get things together). I get no crashes at all. the only thing is my audio gets weird when playing long audio back (not bluetooth), specifically 0.5-1s beepy things. either install 1/27 or wait to see how 1/28 goes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rpitera:
I'll third that. Lol. I've had no real problems with any of the nighties until I flashed the MDK modem. Flashing back to MJ7 brought everything back to normal for me. Loving this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
I will also say it's great. The only main item that does not work is the compass/orientation sensor. Because of that GPS Status and Toolbox does not work. It's too bad really, I really miss that app's functionality.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spotmark:
As I just stated, in the Beanstalk thread, these KK ROMs are at the point where, I don't know why anyone with an MDK phone, would still be using JB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NessLookAlike:
Can anyone comment on the RILJ partial wakelock with the latest build? My understanding is that if the radio interface layer is mismatched to the modem, you end up with the RILJ partial wakelock consuming a lot of CPU time and killing battery life when you're not in reception range. It would be very useful to hear what modem works best with this ROM, given the current early state of its development.

To give some background, I'm coming from Hyperdrive RLS12, and I always had issues with RILJ eating up my battery while I slept in places that were out of cell reception range. I tried flashing a few different modems to see if that would help, but it didn't seem to.

tl;dr which modem are you guys using, and are you noticing significant RILJ battery drain when the phone is not in reception range?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Unless the explanation I received was wrong, you basically want the modem to match the build/kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] griffsterb:
I'm on 1/24 - anyone having problems transferring files to their phone's external SD card via PC (usb)? I actually had this problem on CM10.2 as well. I cannot move music to my phone when connected to my computer via USB. The progress bar just sits there for 5 minutes and then gives me an error.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jkc120:
Awesome thanks! So as soon as the random 5-10s lock ups are fixed (unless they already are and I missed it?) and the software nav button lag is fixed, I'll be all set!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SinfulRoad:
What build are you on because I've had no lockups. (on 1/27 after I think 3 dirty flashes.)

Also by looking at all those commits, might clean flash the next build.

Sent from my Unicorn'd S4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
No it doesn't. It only affects things that specifically use the orientation sensor, such as GPS Status and Toolbox. If I understand correctly, Google/Sammy need to enable it in Kit-Kat by issuing drivers for it.

---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:58 PM ----------

I have not experienced it in about a week now, before was only randomly. Currently running the 1/27 build and have dirty flashed for the last 6+ weeks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jkc120:
Oh I haven't tried it in a while as I haven't had time. Sounds like the only remaining issue for me would be the software nav lag then :)

Honestly, I haven't heard anyone acknowledge it, so I'm not even sure if it's being investigated. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Was just lookin at the commit list for the next build. I guess I called it right on the last one. No 1/28 build listed so it must have failed. The 1/29 build will have quite a few new things in it. Although it's possible, there usually isn't build fails two days in a row.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swordmastr54:
Where do you see the commits? And if I backup my apps with tibu I just clean flash and then restore back correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
You can see what's in the next nightly here:

http://www.cmxlog.com/11/jfltevzw#next_build

As far as restores go you can restore apps and data with TiBu. I personally don't (had a bad experience restoring apps once). Tomorrow's build, for me, will get treated like any other. The only time I clean flash anymore is when versions change (like CM10 to CM11). The only other exception is if after a dirty flash things go south (only happened once in the last year). That's what works for me. Usually I don't have issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swordmastr54:
I just figured its better to clean flash every so often just to clear up the phone or is that not really a issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cambunch:
I always seem to notice some sluggishness after a dirty flash, so I usually just install a new nightly every two weeks and restore app data with TiBu.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FernBch:
Not sure why, but everyone's experience is different. On CM10 and CM11 so far, I have had no issues dirty flashing. The next person may have to clean flash every other build to not have problems.

When I was on CM10, I clean flashed in September when I first installed then dirty flashed till I made the jump to CM11 around 12/15. I did not experience many of the issues that others did. Since clean flashing CM11 last month things have been buttery smooth for me. I have had an occasional issue with "stuttering" on my BT earpiece, use to have occasional ui freezes, but everything else is great. The only thing borked is the orientation sensor but that is a Sammy/Google issue, not CM.

I would recommend to keep doing what works for you.

One thing I did think about, not sure if it matters, but when I first flashed CM10 and again with CM11, I did the usual (wipe data, cache, system) and I also did a factory reset. That included formatting internal storage. That way I started fresh with absolutely no remnants of my previous ROM. Just a thought.

My experience and methods match FernBch exactly. The only clean flash and reset I did was coming from Hyperdrive. I did one more reset when the milestone release came out but otherwise I've been dirty flashing without issues. I had some hiccups when I updated my radio to MDK from MJ7 but they went away after reverting.
