    Guys,

    What about GPS fix getting on your phones?
    My own was quite fast and stable some months ago but now (I don’t remember when it started to be worse) it takes some minutes to get fix and it looses very often.
    I tried GPS status & toolbox and some other apps managing AGPS but it doesn’t seem to be better

  • Geo says:

    Hey guys! Quick question (n00b level over 9000) I’ve been searching on the web but i want to be 100% sure. I am currently ruining a older build from 2- September. IF i take this rom and flash it directly from TWRP, with no wipe/factory reset/etc, will the phone take it has a update or do i have to take care again of all the settings, apps and all that?

    (unrelated) It worked perfectly for 2 weeks, no bugs at all but now if i unplug the phone from the charger it still shows “charging” until i power down and pull the battery out (reboot dosnt cut it) . Any idea what caused this?

    Thanks in advance people! And thank you NovaFusion for the hard work!

  • Alberto Cobar says:

    I have a question, I have in my Slll CM11 V.20140916 mini and would like to upgrade to the new version that launched today V.20140917 and I wonder if without the same procedures as the first time when it was still stock … I must not WIPES make ??? //// I wanted to tell you that in their latest version of CM11 20140916 battery is consumed very fast even while idle cell and another problem is that you can not charge the phone turned off because it gets stuck …

  • d-k says:

    While adding new contact it started asking me where to store it: on the phone only or on google account. I can’t find option ‘don’t ask me again’.
    I haven’t had it in the previous releases

  • Amedeo says:

    there are some problem with this phone, because sometimes, random recurrent, happens that clock and clocks widget stopping their activity.
    Visually you see only clock or widget clocks with hours block.
    in this case if you have setting some alarm happens that the alarms do anything, when you touch the phone for defreeze from stand-by you can listen the alarms sound together, after the hour that you set for alarm

    with stock ROM this problem happened once or twice
    but after i installed CyanogenMOD happens without control

    Sorry for my English

  • Ilicib says:

    Hello. Today I was late at work because of the clock problem. If the clock is freezing the alarm is not triggered… Please fix that, Is important for all your users. I know installing every version of this rom is not the best way of having a stable phone but I am expecting to have the clock and the calling option always working.

  • Roland says:

    Netflix isn’t working? Or is this the same issue as YT?

  • ronald gerardo says:

    Someone who happens to not charge the phone on and off embeces or want to load and being connected and using the battery drains too is downloaded when connected.

    AYUDA…llevo instalando actualizaciones de desde que tenia el galaxy ace ya hace casi tres años pero últimamente desde que an puesto el aroma istale no me aclaro cada vez que parpadeo me desaparecen todas las apk y configuraciones instaladas…no se que hago mal sigo los pasos correctamente cuando me da la opción save log la pulso pero igualmente me hace una instalación limpia como si fuera de cero y tengo que volver a instalar todas mis configuraciones y apk, hay algún tutorial que esplique bien como instalar con este nuevo sistema?

    • Hola!
      El primer paso pregunta si vas a dejar la partición System como ext4 o f2fs selecciona la que te parezca, luego pregunta si desea instalar data como keep current la cual es la partición que tienes por defecto, o te permite seleccionar f2fs o ext4, (la opcion keep current no formatea, en tu caso deberias seleccionar esta) , luego viene la de cache, tambien en keep current, luego instalar, por ultimo deshabilitas la opción de reinicio, haces los wipes y listo te deja todo como debe ser.

  • txemafocus says:

    ok me funciono de lujo por que no lo tenia muy claro alguna vez me salia bien y otras no a hora ya lo tengo claro e instalado la ultima del día 17 para ver que tal va y lo ice bien muchas gracias saludos.

  • Nobody says:

    If the md5sum is right, then simply switch off the control. It works for me. No problem. The older roms are installed by twrp, but the new ones are diferent. It loks like the instalation isnt done by twrp.

  • tpaul1611 says:

    My sim does not get recognised!

  • Rob says:

    How is the battery life?

  • saygone says:

    Hi Team. This ROM is truly amazing.
    I have spotted very strange bug. I have it since last July release. I have tested this for all release since then and it still appears. It is related to instantly disabling network carrier device.

    Today with current release I had to restart phone three times in 10 hours of usage.

    This is pattern which causes issue (doesn’t matter if phone is connected to charger or not):
    – enabled internet connection
    – enabled GPS (doesn’t matter option)
    – use any of navigation app like google maps

    This provides my device to instantly disable network carrier device. First time it was after about 3-4 hours then every time I wanted to use navigation.

    Solution: every time I have to reboot system to have it all back.

    It is really annoying specially when you are on the road and cannot stop to do the reboot and set everything again in safe conditions.

    • saygone says:

      Today I had again that issue but this time when I was making a call. After network carrier disabled I left my phone on the desk. After 10 hours I’ve spotted that my battery was drained to zero… this is very strange problem.

  • Pepperish9 says:

    Please, solve the battery draining issue! I have bought 3 new batteries just while using this ROM! 🙁
    And I have tried Task Killers, Battery savers and all that stuff and it’s NOT WORKING

    • Shanti says:

      Did you try a clean install?

      • Egg says:

        There’s nothing you can do….I am charging my phone every 3-4 hours and this is the main reason for which i am changing today the rom .I hope i find a better one or i’ll have to go for a touchwiz-based rom or worse….BACK TO STOCK ://///////////////////////

        Please NovaTeam,….fix the battery drain issue and youtube problem ASAP

        P.S. :Besides those issues mentioned above I really love your work 😀 and think you’re AWESOME

      • Pepperish9 says:

        Yes, I tried so many times and the problem remains 🙁 and when gping back to stock everything is fine, battery lasts longar than with CM11… hope Mc claw solve this ASAP. Youtube isn’t a big deal, I have tried another player (Viral Lite) and it works way better than Youtube, you can even play video when screen is off

  • Issues says:
