Unfortunately nothing, its in Google's hands. Luckily this drain is location and provider specific, but now every time I travel to unknown places I revert back to CM11

I would consider it to be OK

3g battery drain is not new infact it is a very painful part if we consider high speed Internet. I use 2G since I can't afford battery drain due to Internet network.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] 1di9:
Ok, I've seen # appearing in status bar but some app (Greenyfy, for example) is always asking root permission, like Supersu forgot to have granted those permissions. The only way to manage Supersu behaviour is installing app by chainfire.

Unfortunately app icon issue appeared again, icons of app moved to external sd placed on home screen disappeared after rebooting smartphone. I've changed micro sd with a new 16 Gb Samsung cat 10, made a clean install wiping everything included data partition. I suppose is a rom issue, may be needing to be corrected in new builds.

With 5 Gb of internal memory, this is a very important feature that should work correctly not driving me mad when I have to choose an icon to place on home screen.

ok i have updated the ril blobs from new firmware from india I9192DDUCOF2.

we are using 10-11 months old ril blobs till now...i think the newer libs should address 3g battery drain issue to some extent.

still all of you should test and report back here.

@1di9 this is know issue actually. and even google working on it in aosp so may be we will see some progress soon i think

Dirty install..minimal gapps...Had 2 random reboots today
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
i dont think random reboots are due to ril blobs may be a rom issue...or kernel issue...
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
No random reboots here, but battery life is really bad for me on 07.30 build. I am loosing ~10% every 2 hours with basically no use.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] arsm74:
Battery drain is not that bad for me. I an using f4k kernel and did not have random reboots in a long time. So maybe will revert to 0728 buid
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
so no need for new ril blobs ...i should revert back to old libs....
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
That would be great!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] udaan:
I have no problem with battery whatsoever. Everything works fine with the latest build.

You should do a poll about it before reverting back to anything.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] qstar.inc:
Probably would be a good idea to revert, or later try an update to see if anything fixes. On latest build. System UI crashes every time I close apps (games). Not sure if Xposed or Link2SD configuration has anything to do with it!

I'd like to use a different keyboard from Aosp one, but if I set as default SwiftKey after some time or reboot come back to Aosp keyboard. Someone else noticed this problem? It happens with 07/07 and 21/07 build.

Is anything working better or improved for you on this build? I didn't see anything indicating this in your post. If there is no change for the better for anyone and a change for the worse for some, the overall effect is still negative and k2wl's decision is right, isn't it?

---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

@Pangadaywalker you experienced the 3G drain pretty regularly if I recall. Did you test the 07.30 build to see if it is fixed? Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Pangadaywalker:
Haven't tested yet. Anything new to fix battery drain?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] csendre:
k2wl made some changes hoping it will help. So far battery life for me seems worth, but some people say it is the same. However, it would be the most important to know if the 3G drain is present. If this is fixed, even a little higher regular drain would be worth living with.

@ K2WL after few months gap i was trying latest build of CM 12.1 but was unable to flash it, prior to this i was using your AICP builds i dont know where is the problem, i use philz touch 6.26.6 as recovery and never had problem with it.

In another builds I have randomly reboots after a long period of inactivity or max stress of CPU. I use Kernel Toolkit to make some changes to extend battery life and I found that these settings was making the phone reboot randomly. After change the settings the randomly reboots are gone. Do you use any APP to change Kernel settings??

Thank you K2wl for this Excellent Work!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] arsm74:
Random reboots

I use kernel toolkit to change kernel settings In f4k kernel.

I use conservative governor for cpu,sioplus for i/o scheduler

And - 50.v for voltage to increase battery life
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Inheat:
Uhmm

I using Kernel Toolkit too and the f4k kernel

My random reboots are because the intelliactive mode...

Now I using

Conservative Governor - 162 Mhz - 1458 Mhz

GPU Scaling - 192 Mhz - Ondemand

Sio - 512KB

Global Voltage - (-130v) for voltage.

Try change I/O and see if the reboots are gone ;)

Hello there!!

Some builds ago I could use the "update CM" from the settings menu to update the build. Yestsrday, I clean flashed my i9192 with the 30th of July build and when I try to check for updates it tells me to check the internet connection and try again... Is there any problem with the latest builds according to updates checking?

Thanks a lot!

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Michaelmania:
Hi all. I had been on the second last build of CM12.1 and had to travel extensively across some states on trains. Experience was a bit bad. The phone was taking time to latch onto home networks. I say this because I had a Nexus 4 side by side (and it was on a custom ROM too). Nothing outrageous. Just submitting feedback. And since the last build, loudspeaker volume has drastically gone down during calls. Same with earpiece volume during calls.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] 1di9:
I must point out , however , that it is very slow to hang up wifi networks. If I exit from range of a wifi network and enter in range of aother network, or the same, I need to unlock phone to reconnect to wifi, during stanby do not check presence of wifi signal.

I'm on 21.07 build.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] ponoco:
I have had this problem since the first time I installed CM (back in april).

Half the time it seems to connect just fine, otherwise it just says "connection faliure" and stops trying. At that point I have to manually select the SSID.

And yes, it only seems to happen when the device is on standby and you move within range of a known wifi router.

I'm on 12.1 0728

my standard sim for mobile data is sim1.

When I am disabling sim1 (for saving battery e.g.) the mobile data is swichting to sim2 in the settings automatically. When I enable sim1 again i have to switch the mobile data to sim1 again. This is a little annoying. Is there a way to keep the mobile data setting for sim1 ? Thank you in advance.

Notification badges

hi, thanks for the great work, there is one part that the custom rom community has not given much thought into. these are the NOTIFICATION BADGES. on stock roms, u get notification badges on facebook, sms, whatsapp, messenger, gmail, email and several other apps. my request to you is, can u start a request to the cyanogen community/Major cm developers and get people to voice the request so that they can include it in the cm code? thats the only request i have..

Hello everyone!

Everytime I dirty flash with the newer build, everything is ok except the Facebook app! It works flawlessly, but when there is a newer version in Play Store, it does not update it. It has an error. If I uninstall it completely and try to reinstall from Play Store (or as an apk file) it shows an error again without any code... I clean the cache (system & Play Store), but the only solution is a clean install in order to make Facebook app to install and run. Tis occurs only with the Facebook app!!! Is there any way of fixing it without clean install every time?

Thank you and keep up the good work [MENTION=943196]k2wl[/MENTION]!!!

This rom is nice looking, works smooth and give lollipop experience on a device guilty abbandoned by Samsung but........too many bugs, imho.

I'm on 07.21 build and google maps and navigator is unable to use gps (that is working bad however), camera cannot save foto on external sd forcing to use internal memory (really a bad idea) , apps moved to external sd cannot have icon on home screen or widget working, It's impossible to change lockscreen wallpaper separated from home screen one, battery consumption is very excessive (expecially with 3g on) even if compared to stock rom (10 or more hour less) when in standby (and I've applied exposed frame work with greenify, set conservative governor, row i/o scheduler and other trick by privacy guard), por dual sim management and no sms ringtone customization or repetition.

I hope earlier build will solve someone of those bugs, or I'll be forced with disappoint to come back to stock rom.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] alexax66:
Use newest version CM12.1:

Battery drain depends of using soft (gapps and etc.)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] 1di9:
Camera app has already settings for choosing place where save photos (there's since honeycomb days) , but if you choose external sd don't save anything. In newest build this works?

Battery drain depends of using apps, I agree but if I use same apps than in stock rom, use greenify to hibernate most of them during standby, keep always disabled syncronization, according to me there's something more....3g drains too much energy than in stock rom, imho.

3g drain is lollipop issue...and google is refusing to fix it since last year..(yes ...last year...google is not listening to fix it...even nexus devices has this issue since lollipop preview and also now in android m too.)

also so called doze mode in android m supposed to provide better battery....but that mode is already there in our cm 12.1...added by [MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION]...does it really helps in battery ????....no ...i dont think so....
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] 1di9:
No, if doze mode works as in this rom it's totally unusefull. It's really excessive that with 3g active and in standby mode quite all the time it wasted 40% battery in 7 hour, considered that I've made only 1 phone call and received 3 email.

I'm considering to come back to kitkat.....

Google promise fantastic improvement in battery life since kitkat, but result is always the opposite.

It's been a while since I last came around here. I've been in July 27 all this time and now that I'm back and finally up to August 25, I'd like to say thanks k2wl. I know that by july 30 a lot of folks were discussing either updating the ril blobs was a good idea or not. Well, I most say that after that update I've finally seen something I haven't seen ever since I changed to CM: My phone is finally using HSPA+, where before it used to fluctuate between 3G and HSPA, making my data connection almost useless sometimes.

So definitely, for me, the RIL blobs update was a win.

Not sure why are you having BT issues, I thought these were all gone. In the early CM12 and 12.1 builds there were quite a few problems with BT car kits, but they are all gone now, at least for me. and I am also driving a Ford.. I also drive lots of rental cars because of my job, and did not notice issues with any of them.

Go to the list of paired devices, hit the settings button next to your car kit and try to deactivate "Message Access" This used to work back when everyone was having issues.
