Hey guys for those using the CM12 build for Desire 816. I was able to find a workaround that works for fixing up the camera lag. Simply change the Battery Mode to Performance. It helps me, despite random times a minor lag. But isn't as bad as before, which was in Balanced.

Also curious, any update on when CM12.1 will jump to CyanogenMods Officially supported device? Thanks!
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thirteen_percent:
I was having that issue a long time ago and I think is was because of a faulty data partition. What I did to remedy it was I used TWRP to format the internal storage along with everything else. You could also flash the stock RUU to do this I think but the TWRP method was easier and worked just fine.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] l.capriotti:
solved by deleting nfc apk, battery drains normally now

Just hit my data cap. My speeds went from 8-15mb/s to 10kb/s on LTE.

It's a sad day for my internet. I'm gonna see if I can remove/replace the file in the classes.dex (from the services.jar) to turn off the throttle.

The internet is so slow right now that some web pages don't even load (including VMUSA.com).

Yeah, I will! I'll probably try on Saturday. Got work. I got the files for it yesterday. Doesn't look to hard. After the revised file is created of the classes.dex, you push it to the phone. I read it might have some bugs in the network menu section for selecting data modes or whatever. Man, I hope it works though cause my speeds are unbearable!

---------- Post added at 03:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 AM ----------

Another thing, depending on the ROM and carrier it may or may not work. At&t and T-Mobile supposedly monitor their phones so it is all online and do not use a switch method whereas, companies in particularly, prepaid services do. I have Virgin Mobile. And as for ROMs, not all CM versions cooperate or might be buggy. I wonder though exactly how well it might work since certain ROMs work on multiple versions of a phone. I went on a hunt for the file the other day. I did not find it in a ROM for an old phone I had but did find the file in the insert coin ROM for the a5_chl. I've also have restarted my month past closing hours resulting in an automatic return of data speed but I do not get notified of it restarting until the morning when VM opens.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
But that's how I installed this ROM tho. I always do full wipe including internal twice or three times before installation.. Hmm, it only happens sometimes tho so no biggie. Thank you tho! It just happened now and some of my settings were missing for some reason (like Wi-Fi connections, keyboard settings etc)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] shans_p_s:
Anyway to improve sound, the sound seems to be crappy. The stock version had boom sound for a5dug can we incorporate that in next nightly.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] iamhsn:
battery back up seems poor than the stock rom's battery backup. is there anyway that can improve the battery life? I need the battery to last atleast 12 hours...

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] l.capriotti:
my device sometimes fails to turn off the screen based on inactivity timeout, anyone facing the same?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thirteen_percent:
Are you using CWM of TWRP? I use TWRP and I know that at some point between the problem and now I did "format data" then ran "repair or change file system" in the advanced wipe menu on the data partition and even ran the fix permissions thing as well in the advanced menu. Don't just do a factory reset. Click on "format data partition" and then you have to type in "yes"

Idk if you did that, or if you just checked internal storage on your factory reset. But you MUST format the entire partition.

It's starting to sound more and more like a data partition issue because some of your data even became corrupted.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
I use TWRP 2.8.6.0. I recently updated to 2.8.7.0 and there was a change log entry about data related issues being fixed (maybe that would help also). Anyways, I think I'll try all that after a new release of CM12.1. So far it's been a great daily driver compared to the nighties. That issue only happens quite rarely. Thank you tho!! :)

Hey guys I just flashed cm12.1 on my HTC desire 816 dual sim Indian version (a5dwg).

It is working good till now. No major bugs. Cleaned data,cahce,system, internal SD and the installed it. Not checked sim2 slot. I used twrp to flash ROM

Nice work [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION].

By the way I want to ask that changing the DPI in the DPI setting affect anything?

I mean should you change it? Will it not cause any problems?

And our phones DPI is 267 but its showing 300 as default. Why?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] iamhsn:
iam using the latest build.. everything seems OK till now. the only problem I found is when sometime I call from 1 St Sim I can't hear the other party. i will have to press the speaker mode and back to normal mode then only I can listen the party.. my second Sim is turned off though the Sim is still in the slot.... is there somethingi can do?

I think I'm understanding what you're saying I just want to re-confirm my understanding.

If I read this correctly, you're saying that the original OS reports total memory (even memory that you will never be able to access). But CM reports "ACTUAL MEMORY", so pretty much you have the SAME AMOUNT OF MEMORY in the old OS as in this OS. CM is just reporting it more "truthfully"??

Thanks
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
I just think of it as the maximum you will ever have from a fresh install and deleting some apps is possibly 3GBs to yourself ....but that's considering if you delete stock Google apps after a fresh install, I believe. Everything else, just move to your SD card. So be prepared to rely on your external SD card for most of your larger apps.

official 12.0 nightly from 24 June: there could be a bug in microphone management as when I activate the phone speaker during a call the other party reports it's impossible to hear properly my voice. Toggling back speaker off gets back to proper mic functioning.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
I've been using the one from the 29th.

The only bug I may have (not sure) is I work within a building that doesn't get all the good phone reception. At my desk once I get my first phone call of that day. I can no longer send out calls. However, once I use my desk phone to call my cell it rings just fine. I then go outside for a few seconds and I can make calls. Other thing I can do is put it in airplane mode and take it out and it makes calls. However, this may not be a bug since I'm missing my SIM card and Virgin Mobile has mailed a new one out to me. I"m using a SIM card from another Virgin phone and it's indicating "INVALID SIM". The phone is also indicating "No Service" even though service exist.... The phone is activated and is in my name (w/o a sim). So this might just be my issue until I get a sim. But I know if you don't have a valid sim you lose 4G ability....

@ People Using Nightlies: Have you folks tried using the unofficial 12.1 and still encountered the same bugs present in the nightlies?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
LOL,

That was the one I started with, the 12.1, but it was giving me so many issues I left it alone. I was able to get it installed by itself. However I could never find a GAAPs that worked with it, so I left it alone (also since it's unofficial).
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] l.capriotti:
[MENTION=4197654]exProphecy[/MENTION], I tried unofficial 12.1 on a5ul but I had phone/SMS functionalities not working
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
Honestly I don't think CyanogenMod 12 is ready for this phone yet. I just got my SIM card in from Virgin. I put in my sim and tried to get it working. I flashed it back to the original stock firmware. Activated my sim. I got 4G LTE and everything. I then went back to CyanogenMod and my 3/4g LTE stopped. Only CDMA. There is an option within the phone to change the "preference" to "SIM" but it is disabled.

I did further research and installed a modified Universal Radio. Unfortunately that didn't work either. So I went ahead and flashed the firmware back to the stock. I really wish this would work out. I like Cyanogenmod. It is small, simple, minimalist. The stock firmware has a ****load of bloatware (KidMode, Twiter, Facebook etc....)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
You're on the virgin mobile USA version? I'm using the 12.1 06302015 build and everything works fine for me. But sometimes 4G cuts out and I have to disable and reenable 4G to make it work again. When I disable 4G, it says roaming but data still works. Do you have this screen?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
I have that screen, but I can't choose the sim option. My thought was I should be on that option for my sim to work. Anyway, I tried 12.1 first but I couldn't get gaaps to work with it.

At work today I found another rom called "insert coin here", I believe someone here mentioned it. Anyway I flashed that onto the phone and it's working much better. It seems to look very similar to the original (even with some minor bloatware [virgin junk]) but it's much much better.

So far 4g appears to be working as well as google apps. Only thing is it includes Voicemail software for some reason (which takes 30 - 40 megs!!!). But that really the only issues.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
Yea it's always safer to go with customized stock ROMs for full functionality. Which gapps were you trying to use tho? I could post mine if you are willing to give it another shot :)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
If you can post the Link for the Gapps and the 12.1 you used that would be great. I might give it a try. I have this phone setup well so far on "insert coin here". So far no crashes..... :)

Hey,

What's the difference between 12 and 12.1, is it simply just 5.1 (no mem leak)?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
Well I used the mini 5.1 gapps located here: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/reborn-gapps-5-t3074660 and the 0610 build of 12.1 (my mistake, I said 0630 in my previous post) from Grarak's basketbuild here: https://basketbuild.com/devs/Grarak.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] steppinthrax:
So honestly guys after banging my head up against the wall with Cynogenmod, I've decided to go back to "insertcoinhere". I was sucessfully able to get cynogenmod working with 4g when using the APN fix. However just as exProphecy said every once and a while you need to enable airplane mode to "get it back" to 4g. There are just too many features lost. The call quality seems bad as well. NO BOOMSOUND!!!!

I've went back to insertcoinhere and I've even found a way to remove voicemail within the setup. It seems to be working very well. I will check further....
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] sahil.bhardwaj:

This issue is there for a long time for me. Still no fixes available for this. This happens with all roms based on cm12 or 12.1.

Thanks Grarak!
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] aftertzf:
EU single sim.

When I make a call and then hang up, it stays on 'hanging up'. But the call DOES get through.

Then afterwards any attempt to use phone app presents me the keypad, return to call, add number options.

With long press on back key to kill, it kills it and can use again.

When phone is called from another number, no notification shown, it doesn't ring.

Switched to 2g, didn't change anything.

On boot it says no sim detected for a long minute, then shows no signal for 20 seconds before finding network. I don't have any PIN security set or active...

With wireless off, it doesn't pick up a 2/3g/lte connection.

Didn't do a clean flash as this happened on other builds after end of April, in clean and dirty flash of the ROM.

What can I do, and when, to get you useful info to debug this?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] aftertzf:
Extra info... I can send SMS but don't receive.

And I have syslog of lots of stuff, can I upload modem info safely here?

Thanks for this awesome ROM Garak,

I'm on Virgin mobile. I'm on the earlier 12.1 June build. I hacve MIC issues while taking calls. Even the switch to speaker phone back and forth also not working some time. I'm always carrying the bluetooth head set with me because of the MIC issue. Whether the MIC issue resolved in this build?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I am also on VM with the newest 12.1 build and have had no issues with the MIC at all, taking or placing calls.

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] I do have an issue that I noticed though. For some reason I can't reliably connect to 4G. If I set the preferred type to 3G I can get data, but left at 4G I cannot even get a data connection, and it wont even try to fall back to 3G like normal.

I did manage to get 4G at my house by connecting to 3G first and letting it sit for a bit, then switching back over to prefer 4G it then connected. I tried this while on the go and it hasn't worked. I am going to re-flash the stock rom and do a PRL update before flashing back to this update. Hoping that will fix my issues. I will report back with any updates.

a5_ul : others having same issues ?

Reported issues making latest CM12.1 unusable for phone/SMS.

Anyone else with same exact phone model(A5 EU single sim) have same issues, or a way to workaround them?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] BuggerBug:
Yeah I'm having the same issues regarding data on the VM a5_chl too. I made a previous post on his earlier 12.1 build about how data has worked, but I soon found that data reconnection is still spotty later on the week. It seems that whenever I go out of a WiFi range (or disable WiFi) that I'm connected to, data will at times fail to switch back on. Or when data just falls out of connection for the area I'm in but won't reconnect again. There are moments that data does reconnect like the first few times right after I flashed the 12.1 rom, clean or dirty, but it starts to not connect for some reason as time goes by.

My current remedy is just to launch an app called "change APN" to fix 4G/LTE quickly such as I demonstrated in this video: https://youtu.be/8hqVCd3J1Aw (also shows how data doesn't reconnect after I disable WiFi, it just shows the exclamation mark symbol indicating there's some issue).
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] sahil.bhardwaj:
Grarak, thanks for this great update, silent call issue is completely resolved, loudspeaker in call is also useable. Just one issue I face, whenever I go in fight mode and switch back to normal mode, WiFi and network don't connect even searching network also doesn't work. This the only opened issue I know now.

1. Wipe /system and /cache

2. Flash only rom
