Guys does anyone have contacts sync issue, like me?

How to solve it?

It has started since 7/6 nightly and it's in the latest one 11/6

I can't sync my contacts even with a fresh install not just upgrade

Any idea?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ireaper4592:
very strange mine has never froze yet

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] KelleyCook:
This almost certainly is a Gapps issue.

Download Helium from the Play Store and backup all your data (to external SD is a good choice). You shouldn't lose anything, but your contact DB might be corrupted.

Download PA Gapps (Mini, Micro or Full).

Boot to recovery and format /system. Re-install the CM11 ROM, Install the good Gapps, Wipe Dalvik and reboot.

It should start syncing after logging back into your Google Account.

If that doesn't work, Do the same thing again, but wipe data first. This time it will work, but you are going to have to restore your app data from Helium (redownloading apps as prompted).

A bug with the newest nightly version when tapping contacts in contact book, any ideas? (Has done wiping dalvik cache, reboot )

waaa rly? No random freezes and reboot? Downloading now, 10 minutes remaining completed :laugh:

Are you updated from 314 or fresh install?

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Siddhesh:
Major security bug fixes, shift from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3, and some critical bug fixes so its good to do a clean install.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
When I installed Gapps, I installed also Google Keyboard, which replaced default keyboard of Cyanogenmod 11. Since Google Keyboard causes lots of wakelocks and drains my battery, how can I reinstall cyanogenmod's keyboard?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Siddhesh:
In system/addon.d there might be a script to backup google keyboard delete that first then just flash cm11.zip the one u r using and only wipe dalvik cache and reboot. Hope this will fix the issue
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Nah, flashing the CM package will automatically wipe your /system first (it's embedded in the updater-script so it can't be avoided), thus losing all other GAPPS in the process.

I reckon you can just open the CM package, get the /system/app/LatinIME.apk (if I remember correctly, look inside /system/priv-app if it's not there) and put it in your phone's same folder with a root-enabled explorer. Remember to set permission to rw-r--r--(0644).

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Siddhesh:
Bro gapps have a backup script in system/addon.d so formatting system will not harm them.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Your method seems to be simpler. I'll try.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Sure there is, but for unknown reasons that never worked for me... :confused: So based on what I know I suggested another way round.

i gotn one question ... which is better fxp or cm nightlies ??
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nplezka:
Official nightlies are more stable. One week with them and no one single freeze. Battery is better and we have more than a release per week.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ironshadow2:
do u face any lag?, cuz When i was using official cm I had alot of freezes and lag, that's why I switched to MAHDI ROM. I was using William kernel
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] krokanic:
i know i am late but i have tried stock .205...but not good :P :D

ok....

1. still 1st mic is recording a video

2. i haven't that bug never and i haven't it yet :)

3. using william kernel v 2 i have 5+ hours of screen on with 2 hours of fruit ninja playing... i dont know how is battery life on stock kernel...

4. no

5. never had this problem...

and with few modes...i think i found my best rom...and when cyanogenmod and fxp team fix 2nd mic in video rec...it will bi perfect...

and one more thing...

led notification settings works again :) but i cant turn of crt screen-off animation...

edit: i turned it off but with gravity box...
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nplezka:
Nope. Not a single lag. Did you wipe cache and dalvik when you passed from FXP to official nightly? I used Williams kernel for about two or three days and I didn't face any problems.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ironshadow2:
The first version I installed was the first release of the official cm(nightly). Maybe the lag increased when I updated the rom.

Do you advice me to go back to cm? Because MAHDI Rom is good, But cm have better battery life.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nplezka:
You can try. Do a NAND first, so if you'll face lags, you can return to MAHDI ROM fast. But I think it's strange, I have no lags, freezes or something, I don't know why you have them.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ironshadow2:
What is NAND?

Last time I wanted to restore a ROM via CWM I got error mount system

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] KelleyCook:
They are exactly the same thing
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] vvaklnprm:
A small doubt..

Is the FXP 323 and the latest nightly release the same? Or are there some minor changes such as different kernel or other changes?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Th3Duck:
Does anybody have a problem with Titanium Backup? When flashing the CM nightly only wiping cache and dalvik, I can't uninstall apps with TB. Need to do a fresh TB install, deleting settings etc. This is happening with every ROM flash I do, doesn't matter if it is a clean or dirty flash. When doing clean install, I flash TB.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mykamran:
huasun plz fixe second mic in next update.speaker is weak.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Dragonkind:
In fact, they are not fully the same...

I am not sure about what is the difference between them, but for example, the calculator.apk of FXP seems to be in hex mode if u calculate some larger numbers. And the official CM's works without any issues. This is a little point I have found.

Another problem, the Williams kernel has the RIL compatible issue with Official CM, but it can be fixed with THIS METHOD. It is resulted from the kernel based on FXP resource...

So, we can find that there may be some difference between the official CM and FXP, though they are both 4.4.3 now.

Between them, I prefer the official CM now, using with the Williams kernel. (bugs fixed by the tutorial link)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Gamm86:
It's possible you have to reboot and change permissions once again. After that, reboot again.

Forgive me if I missed the answer in the earlier post, I have unlocked bootloader, connected in fastboot mode (blue led), typed fastboot flash boot boot.img, but is stuck at "sending 'boot'".

Question:

1. I have CM recovery already in the phone, can I install from recovery? What is the order? install boot.img or the FXP303-cm-11-20140120-UNOFFICIAL-honami.zip first?

2. Or can I use flashtool64.exe?

3. No Kernel needs to be installed/flashed?

Thanks.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] flamingwolf6529:
using flashtool is a better option, unless you are a techie. recheck your usb drivers, maybe theyre not installed properly.

btw guys, maybe some of you have noticed, latest nightly brings us protected folders in trebuchets homescreen! [emoji6]

I suppose no boot.img or Flashtool needed, just flash the ZIP in CM recovery and optionall wipe cache and dalvik.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Choucko:
Hey man, I believe the FXP download list is old and the instructions in the OP are outdated.At the moment the latest nightlies are available here http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=huashan&type=nightly from the CM mod page, the latest one is stable for me apart from the mic bug for me at least

So download, extract kernel only into a folder you want, open flashtool, turn off the device and connect it in fastboot mode, select the lightning bolt and fastboot mode and then select the kernel to flash. after you select it a wall of text should scroll down and it should say completed in'x' seconds

Sorry if you face problems when flashing the kernel, I don't have a solution, but at least use the latest nightlies as they get daily updates pretty much and probably stable releases soon enough

Hey,

I would advice that everyone should stay on topic and that all WilliamsKernel related discussion should take place in the appropriate Thread for WilliamsKernel.

Hey guys, I'm having a little problem installing this ROM:

I'm upgrading from CM 10.1 (Android 4.2.2 JB). I have CWM recovery so I can flash zips from there. The install instructions on the first page say "flash boot.img", so I extract boot.img from the downloaded CM11 zip, flash it via fastboot, but whoa, I'm not able to do anything, not even recovery.

What saved me was reflashing an older recovery via fastboot.

What's going on there? Can I just flash CM11 zip from the recovery I have now? Thanks.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] [GER]Roxxor:
I guess you could give it a try, even though I dont know if the recoveries are compatible.

About whats going on there: Which file did you download? MAybe you downloaded a version where the bug is present that you cant enter recovery via hardware button.

Im not sure about the command, but you could try something like: fastboot reboot recovery (not sure about this, but could work ;))

A question from my side: Is the new futex vulnerability fixed in our kernel? I was not able to find a corresponding commit :/ (https://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2014/msg00130.html)
