Wow! This is a Systems Engineer doing his job, for us, for free! Way to go, Emil, GOLD STAR! :laugh:

Thank you. Now I have something to work with, and everybody else considering this update. I am on M5 since last night, OTA. Fast update, no difference in the phone that I can see, still stable, everything works. Since I used Cool Tool for CPU and memory monitoring, at times, using things like voice typing for text, I see the phone hangs a bit at times. I might get out a sentence and a half, and the voice typing will stop. This is annoying, I must reduce the keyboard, bring it back up, and resume my voice typing. Looking at the system monitor, I can see the system is over taxed.

Was it like this on 03/30? Not a much, or at least not to the point where I noticed it and became irritated by it. We can only get so much out of a "go cart", it if does not meet our needs, we must buy a car. Even with Kit Kat, I think the phone is reaching it's limits. But I do have a lot of apps and modules running. Maybe I have to cut back some. Will I keep the snapshot, probably not. The nightlies somehow seemed to have more energy in them. I can revert with a backup, stay there, or try a newer build. You report helps a lot, I can see how 04/07 is working. Do you run many apps or find your phone slowing down any?

Thanks for your help, buddy. This is the best way to make the most of what we have. :good:

Wow, I am not sure I can help you. I would suggest you post this question to the Main Thread as there are many more people there with more experience in different areas. Jake is a good man, a great tester, and a darned good helper, but he is spread pretty thin at times.

Your PC and your phone have different data connections. PC uses home internet provider, phone uses the phone's data carrier, unless you turn on WiFi. Why you cannot get downloads from CM is not something I understand. I would suggest checking your data connection on the phone, do a Google search or something, then try an OTA download again. Try a different download just to check. You do not have to install it. If still a no go, then log into your cm account on the web to check your account, login and password. If necessary, delete the CM account in settings and reinstall it. Make a new account if you have to. Else, reinstall.

Try some of the stuff I suggest but before doing drastic steps, give this question to the main thread because many members there have similar experiences. I hope this helps. :good:

UPDATE:

Duh! Of course the server may be experiencing temporary problems. It is always best to try again a little later before tearing into your phone for an update download. Sorry not to mention this at the time, now I feel stupid. :p

You do realize that cm11 nightlies are constantly changing. See the changlog and read how each build alters the system a little bit each time. JBX is a custom kernel, made for specific parameters on a build. JBX cannot keep up to date with the changes that occur with cm11 every day. It lags quite a bit and if the system changes enough, the kernel and smooth operation will fail. Most people quit using JBX with cm11 because cm11 is getting very strong on it's own two legs, custom stuff is not necessary and complicates things too much to troubleshoot.

I love JBX but am not using it anymore for this reason. When cm11 becomes stable to the point where it no longer changes or you stop using nightlies, the custom kernel will always be a "crap shoot". I think you did good by not installing it and just trying cm11 alone. Less to go wrong, less to troubleshoot. Good luck! :good:
