2-3 weeks testing

hi guys, unfortunately long full review of 2-3 weeks testing just got lost in posting.. snif.. guess i'll copy this reply to notepad just in case :)

So.. have been testing this rom for 2-3 weeks now,

all over I would say it works great but with one major flaw -> the OP2 hangs itself atleast 1 time per day, often twice.

Here's a list of the imperfections I've come across.. some are nitpicking, but mentioning all I can think off in the hope it can help point to something.

Overall I still think the Crdroid runs amazingly smooth, better than expected on relative old hardware.

- So the biggest problem I have is the phone hangin itself daily.. never the same moment though, so I can't pinpoint it to something specific, although I have a feeling a lot of issues are around lockscreen and this might be too. -> the result is always the same.. black screen, with only the 2 bottom screen button leds lit. only resolve it holding the power button and waiting for a full reboot.

- Screenlock keeps coming back as problem (noticed it whilst summarizing previous post that got lost), for example when making a call.. when i want to hang up.. i can't.. untill i remove screenlock first -> that one is so weird.

- screenlock too: during cycling and using my xiaomi miband2 + app, i noticed the screen goes into sort of screensaver mode? 1) it shows the app for say 30 seconds.. 2) then a fade version 3) then like only the screen background picture nothing else 4) then like black screen only.. and after that pops back to 1 and keeps looping.

- incoming phone calls -> some times are impossible to pick up -> you have to pick up.. unlock phone.. pick up again (slide) and then line drops dead.. this does not happen when phone is not locked by the way.

- display of time + apps during screen lock.. sometimes it does.. sometimes it doesn't .

- screenlock often also displays the pincode screen but doesn't accept keys, not until i tap the power button -> which is what it should do (according to my settings) and then it works fine.. but so it's showing the keypad when it should not be showing the keypad (dimmed screen, keypad only when locked -> not sure what it should be showing -> in original OS either black or clock if i'm not mistaken)

- outgoing calls -> a lot of outgoing calls are mute.. no audio.. this however might be a local vodafone netherlands issue, as multiple colleagues reported the same to me this week.

- warning: When rebooting (hard holding button) I've had several cases where the phone by itself decided to revert sim-chip priorities... so I swapped sim 1 and 2 for data -> and this could potentially cost people a lot of $$$ if not expecting a lot of data traffic on one of the sims not set up for that.

- warning; same as prior topic, but for phone - the op2 also decided on it's own several times to swap sim 1 and 2 for audio calls

- and the last ' reset ' I found was that the buttons left/right (which I swap per default left and right) occasionally are swapped back after a hard reboot, but only like every 10th reboot or so.. really odd.

- GPS -> the GPS by default in this rom unfortunately works a lot worse than prior.. it was always super fast, responsive... firstly GPS very often does not work at all after a hard reboot.. tapping GPS off and back on again a second later fixes that issue though... but secondly it is slow finding satellites and it used to be very fast. Noticed this with several apps, so it was not an app specific problem.

- specific issues with early bird alarm -> oddly I can remove alarms entirely.. and the phone will still start the alarms at prior set time.. the first time it happened i though I made a mistake.. after a few days i knew i was not losing my marbles :) might be app specific though.

- charging display/speed indicator on screen etc. -> no idea why but sometimes it's visible (great.. actually so nice as it helps identify crappy charging usb plugs/cables) and sometimes it's not visible.

upsides

- in general during usage, everything is running super smooth

- the battery drainage I had prior on stock OS is gone.. it was "leaking" usage of power somewhere.. happy to see that stopped

- some bluetooth issue i had on stock OS are fine now too.

- except for the odd thing with alarm clock every app used (quite a few last 2-3 weeks) works perfect

I have to admit that I am retiring the phone from daily all-round usage as I need to upgrade business phone,

but it will be happily used as a private sports/navigation/media player device, so still get it's daily usage and I can keep testing stuff if needed,

so thanks for supporting the OP2.. it's awesome to see that hardware worthy of new OS' still get it this way, you guys do awesome work!

Hope the feedback helps.. if there's anything else I can test/do please let me know.
