Hello everyone,
I've been having quite an interesting issue on my NS4G. I'm currently running the latest available CM7 nightlies/gapps, as well with Pete Alfonso's kernel. The underlying system in the phone (radio/etc) is all running the current latest available from Sprint as well.
Now the issue in question, I've been having an issue that seems to be occurring more and more frequently on my phone. Now because I am already running a custom ROM and not just stock, this makes me unsure if the issue is coming from the software, or if there is an actual hardware issue with my phone.
Occasionally (I would say as infrequently as once every 2 days or so) when I unlock my phone with the power button, for a split second after the CRT animation I see my phones screen as all green (with a hint of purple), almost the color you associate artifacting with. Now I am not overclocked, but I am running this custom kernel. But the thing is, I'm not 100% on this, but If I remember correctly I do remember seeing this issue on other kernels as well before (I've been running Pete's for some time now).
I also occasionally experience issues with lets say finishing up a phone call, and my phone may lock up with that green screen w/ purple, and then CM7 will automatically reboot the phone for me. I've also experienced my phone rebooting into "Safe Mode".
Essentially what I am wondering is if anyone can shed some light, are these just software bugs that I am running into that other users are experiencing as well, or is this an issue with my phone?
Thanks everyone!

go to the main settings, cyanogenmod settings, display.. turn on the screen off animation. then go back to cyanogenmod settings, lockscreen, delay and timeout, turn both screen timeout delay and screen turned off delay to immediately. that should fix the green screen.
There are a bunch of AOSP rom's for our phone, most of them share the same issues since it's the same code, with slight differences based on which commits they've added. I'm hoping we can list the common issues in one thread as a reference.
1. Data handoffs between 3g/4g - I believe this is now fixed in most of them after the RIL patches, right?
2. Call volume - This CM10 commit (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24564/) should fix this. Not in most rom's yet
3. Bluetooth pairing, call connect, streaming - does this work fully in any AOSP rom?
4. Sleep of death
5. Wakelock caused after playing media (DirectTrack)
6. Camera issues, like save to sd. The JB mod camera hasn't been updated yet.
7. Misc battery life issues - are most of these due to #5?
8. Activation issues after a flash
9. Low video recording volume
10. Notification light problems
11. 160 char sms limit, MMS doesn't work
12. Problems waking up with home button
13. Screen redraw issues (these can be fixed by turning off hardware overlays, but that increases cpu consumption)
I think it would be very helpful if we could track which rom's had which fixes merged, since otherwise it's hard to tell without asking in each thread, doing a lot of searches, and trying out.
Slimbean:
-Wake lock issue still seams to be an issue, battery life is bad
-notification light not working when call/text/email etc come in. Will be patched on next release
-data seams stable enough (ril patch is active on most recent build)
-horrible battery life
-call volume will be patched on next release
-home button to wake up phone is hit or miss
-odd screen glitches every now and then (fully live withable)
-mms sending takes forever, needed several reboots to even get it to work
-if usb fast charge is available in your kernel, it has a toggle for it in the notification tray (awesome)
-did I mention the battery life is bad?
-soft key light options do not work
I'll report more as I find them. I like these threads, good call.

Great idea for a thread!
Add low video recording in all AOSP Roms. As far as I know this has not been fixed yet.

I am using slimbean 2.5 and I am getting anywhere from 16 to 24 hours of battery life on a single charge (3-4 hours of screen) which is about normal for any AOSP/AOKP based rom.
I actually made a similar list, but deals with comparing TW quirks to AOSP quirks:
Touchwiz VS. AOSP
Touchwiz:
- No Bluetooth and Aux input simultaneously
- Wallpaper Cropping forced to non-scrolling
- No way to disable auto volume reduction upon headset plug-in
- God awful front end interface design (this is more of an opinion)
- Google Music will randomly stop working, requires screen to be turned on for it to start playing the next track
AOSP:
- Volume Quirks (upon reboot, media volume will play quiet regardless of where the slider is, if maxxed you must turn it down and then up again similar to the call volume issue)
- Call Volume at Max every call (wasn't this fixed recently?)
- Wrongly uses noise reduction mic for recording (thus quieter)
- Inferior Camera (features mainly)
- Worse battery life
- Sometimes drops data
- Not as buttery as ICS for some reason (recents excluded)
- Will frequently kill background apps, making 2GB of ram somewhat pointless
- Bluetooth streaming issues (This doesn't personally affect me but I thought I'd throw it in anyway)
Basically, the one with the shorter list wins. So, I'm on TW for now but I yearn for the AOSP list of quirks to shrink.

I've been told this has been fixed, but I still experience it. Is there a workaround for this currently?
I believe that there is a big tracker which is linked to on the irc chat. I would link to it but I'm not at my pc.perhaps someone could do so?

This 1? http://tinyw.in/25QW
Number 6 is not really a problem. It's all based on personal preference.
Number 1 was fixed. Sleep of death could be kernel and/or clock speed settings. Mms works fine. There is a fix somewhere for direct track. Battery issues? Umm mines been perfect. That could be contributed to people not knowing what's causing wake locks and not fixing it. Not sure how anybody is getting screen redraws I haven't disabled hardware overlay and mine is fine, using apex if that makes a difference.
Most if not all of those issues are non existent in liquid smooth.
Hope this is the right spot to post this question. I tried flashing 2 separate roms today (Slim Rom and Liquid Smooth) which I believe are both AOSP, but I could be wrong. On both occasions, it starts to boot and gets to the google account login screen and the screen on the phone just keeps flickering and goes black.
I am unlocked, obviously rooted, with CWM 6.0.1.1 and have flashed JB TW rom in the past with no problems but went back to TW ICS, which I am currently running now.
Anyone know or direct me to the right thread as to why the screen flickering happens after flashing these AOSP roms? I haven't tried CM10 yet because these other roms actually sound more stable than CM10 right now.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

That might work, but I cannot even get into the OS to disable anything. It is completely unusable when I flash any of these roms.
Would there be something out there that I could flash in CWM to disable this in the rom pre-boot?

Nothing that I know of sorry.
One of the main reasons I don't use any AOSP roms is because of the bluetooth sync issue. In two of my cars, it will sync for the first time, but any other time I get in the car it won't pair up. I have to manually connect it every single time.
wifi errors, i get out of range and or wps failed on any aosp rom.
I find that signal is just not as strong as compared to Touchwiz roms.

ROM: CM10 M2
Using Android Pro Widgets (the APW People widget in particular), it lags (the widget, not the ROM). Anyone run into this issue? Not a big problem, just curious.
Any word on when the call volume is going to be merged into the CM10 build for d2vzw
After updating to 4.2.1 my tablet began acting very laggy, like, VERY laggy.
Slowdowns, recent menu pops up after maybe three seconds(before update it happened instantly), lockscreen isn't showing first time, only the black screen shows up. I've tried changing to Performance mode, but it didn't do anything.
Then I tried switching the layout to 4.2 style launcher. And...now it's working like charm again. Everything is smooth, fine, and cool.
Has anyone faced the same problem? Because no way how new style is good, I like old one better.
Hi. I am asking this here, since I don't have permissions yet to comment in the Note 2 thread.
I installed CM 10.1.3-stable on release day and there are obviously stuff missing compared to stock (like NFC and Beam icons (and the features too i think) in the pulldown menu, hand-over to wake from sleep, etc)
Trebuchet crashes sometimes too but not too often. (but i'd hardly call it stable )
But especially, I have problems with phone call sound quality and general buggyness when it comes to the phone part altogether.
I could not get CWM to install either (screen just flickers and continues boot, had to install some other recovery. (Pointing it out since the install instructions says to use CWM) I know the thread is for Nightlies, but i cant find a thread for Stable. And i dont have permissions anyway.
So i was wondering if anyone knows if there's any 10.2 nigthlies that are better than 10.1.3 Stable, and if it is, when will 10.2 be stable ?
Overall I've had a nice experience with CM 10.1.3 though. Not gonna uninstall. But i hope development will continue
Edit 1: Also, the meter for GSM signal strength also doesnt turn blue until you turn on wifi. But then both become blue if you enable WiFi.
And i dont think ive seen it deviate from 100% GSM strength. I used to have some variance in my house before i think. (but dont quote me on that one)
UI transitions, pulling down the notifications or pulling up the app drawer seems laggy/slow frame rate.
Battery drain: the battery used to last at the very least 48h. Now I'm recharging it every 24/28h
Factory reset didn't solve anything for me.
laggy here too. Good info, now I know Factory reset it's useless.
Other issue I have:
some app don't use anymore or not properly border / edge.
I think downgrade to Android 10.
Haven't got it yet, in the US.
Same lagging in Android 11 on Edge.
I also have Edge+, on Edge+ no change.
Went back to Android 10...

I found a solution, I'll post it later. Battery is ok for me.
This works for me:
Go to Developer options and disable "Enable blurs". That option provides a blur on the screen, for example, behind the notification panel when we slide it.
You need to perform a reboot. After rebooting, all animations and transitions work fine. Let me know if it is useful.
Related with this: When "Enable blur" is enabled and you are broadcasting screen, you will notice a problem in vertical mode. Try swiping the notification bar... can you see how the resolution expands on the TV? I'm sure that's related to the lag.

Yes, I noticed that. I don't think it's an issue... it's a motorola decision.

It can be a motorola decision have border screens and dont be used properly, some apps dont use the edges now and i see my backscreen wallpepare in the sides when im using spotify. Is horrible and it shouldnt be like that!
I have the same problems as you guys and also now i have to wait half of a second to start recording an audio on whatsapp or instagram, and before the update it was perfect.... Does someone know how to do a downgrade?
I updated my Moto Edge 5g 6days ago, and changed the Blur option as advised by Cruban and my phone is working fine.
The battery seems the same as it was before and i don't have any issues with the non edge apps and the wallpaper.
For me too at first!
After disable turn off "Enable blur" and restart the phone , everything's work fine
I have receive new update today
RPD31.Q4U-39-26-14
fixed
- Laggy performance on the home screen
- Edge Display (or lack thereof for most apps on Android 11).
