Some of you may have noticed that the new maps app flickers on MT4GS running CM10.1. I reflashed gapps with the old maps, turned off auto-updates and it still updated itself. It is just useless.
Does anyone have a solution? I doubt google cares.

Saw you mention this in one of the dev threads as well. I'm running SilverL's Unofficial CM 10.1 and haven't personally noticed this issue, while I saw someone else back you up with similar problems.
Maybe you pulled a map update I haven't seen yet? I'm showing version 6.14.4(#6140400) Web
Are you higher? Do you have a lot of layers on maybe?

Yes, version 7 is out. auto-updated earlier week on my phone. dev threads? i don't recall, posting anything, I don't think I have permission to post there.
Anyway, I figured it out. I reflashed gapps, but it doesn't contain the maps app, and that's why it was ineffective. I uninstalled version 7, and pulled the version 6 apk from a friend's phone and installed it.
I also turned off auto-update in play.

Sorry, saw someone mention it, thought it was you! Glad to hear it was sorted, I'll be sure to avoid a map update if I see one pop, but I haven't yet. Maybe it was causing issues outside of custom roms and google stopped pushing it until they got it sorted.
interesting, i was also having this issue.i was on the jellykang rom 1.8 and changed to silverL's 10.1 unofficial cm and im seeing a version 7.0.1 and it look like its working fine. ill report back if i see anything messing up again. but looking at android polices coverage of this update release reported that there were several versions getting pushed all over the place so maybe some work better than others..

Interesting. I finally popped for the map update yesterday, and after reading this I figured I'll give it a shot. I like everyone else definitely had issues with the map, the jitteryness, the menu icon on bottom left slightly off screen. I uninstalled and reverted to 6.14.4 from my backup and it's just fine again. Hope this does get fixed, the new map looks nice if it was working. Wondering if you really are issue free or just didn't notice anything real quick.
It did seem like as I was playing with location options (use network for location, gps radio on or off, let google always allow access, having a gps lock or not) sometimes it seemed like it would smooth out for a second or two, then get all glitchy again. Wonder if any official JB handsets are getting the issue, I think I know what I'll google next.

yea you were right, i just did a glance look at it and didint really dive into it that far. i checked it out again and it is still all messed up so nevermind ..
are there any custom roms that dont have the issue i wonder. maybe this can help narrow down the root cause. unless its just an inherent problem with the app as it stands today. it almost reminds me of this issues i was having with ingress when i was on stock.

Unfortunately it seems to me to be an issue with all of the 10.1's at least, and from my googling before, it seems likely specific to our device, just not sure why
Anywho, I'm pretty OK with maps 6, it works, and still has separate navi app, and is what anyone with earlier than android 4.0 is stuck with anyway.
UPDATE: So I tried the 7/22 update that I got hit with, and it's weird. Initially it seemed OK, aside from the menu button still being half off screen. After fooling around for a bit with menus and settings, it got all flickery again. It seems like it heavily had to do with overlays/prompt dialogues showing up. The box would kind of disappear aside from the outline, but still respond. After fooling around quite a bit and disabling boxes from asking again, eventually everything seems to have evened out. Now I haven't actually done any kind of navigation or heavy use, but I've been using v 7.0.2 now on and off for a few days, and the stutter hasn't come back. Wish I had a more definitive way of what I did to get rid of it, or if it eventually just smoothes out on it's own, but for now it seems like I'm good with the new maps on a CM10.1 rom.
Bump for update, anyone else experiences with new maps?

Yes, I'm having the exact same issues as you. Screen flickers and overlay menus keep blanking out so you can't read them. I have an HTC Inspire 4G running CM 10.1. Came across this thread searching for "Maps 7 screen flicker". I had to revert back to Maps 6 as 7 was unusable!

Im running PACman ROM v22.4.0, same issue as you guys with the new maps, and navigation is a stutterfest.
I'm on jellykang 1.8 and that's definitely happening to me. especially in the navigation app
Since others are now finding this thread outside of just us DS users, I figure I'll share this idea from a dev thread:

So something for others to try/chime in on?
Guys, can you try disabling android debugging AND USB debugging in developer options?
I saw it on a sensation ROM forum and it seems to be working for me.

Hrm, I'll try it. Just loaded maps now, it was sketchy, disabled and seemed fine. Turned back on, and it was still fine, this one seems to be crazy inconsistent.
It wotk fine on my device
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9505 mit Tapatalk 2
possible workaround?
I found another workaround that seems to work for me:
Turn on the "Extended Desktop" (or "Expanded"? I'm on German here). And it's gone. Strangely the flickers don't return when I turn it off again.
Extended Desktop Option has to be activated in the settings, if it's not available in the power switch menu.
Counter perspective
I've just been working with the newest CM builds for the MT4GS, and I don't encounter any flickering. This is with a complete wipe prior to installing however.
same issue with HTC G2 on CM10.1
Hello,
I experienced the same issue on my HTC G2 with CM10.1. I had to revert to Maps v6...the v7 would sometime work fine, but most of the time I had some part of the screen flickering and the navigation feature was not usable at all (the animation would not work). I first thought it might be because of the overclocking. but I tried with stock frequency and the issue persisted.
My wife's Sony Ericsson Mk16a also has the same issue but on a custom stock rom..

Hi All,
I am having an issue with GPS on my TF101. ive tried a few different Team EOS and CM roms but doesnt seem to have an effect. I am currently running EOS 81 (last EOS that still works with wiimote). I just get no satellites connected. Below are two logcat logs, one from K.A.T when i try to install the GPS quickfix i get an error, then the other is starting GPS Status.
Im starting to wonder if my GPS is actually broken and it's not a software issue.
Please help, even if it is just to say my GPS is properly shagged.
K.A.T log:
http://pastebin.com/svPCVbYY
GPS Status log:
http://pastebin.com/sYdVfCBX
Edit:
I just tried EOS 113 and the K.A.T. GPS Fix installed successfully, however still no luck in GPS status. Logcat:
http://pastebin.com/4CCQzgjc
Strange not to get any fixes at all, mine takes a while but does eventually lock on
When you say K.A.T, do you mean KatKernel or the Kat-App ?
Kat-App has some GPS fixes in it
And not to sound arrogant but you are trying to get a fix outdoors under a clear sky ?

I'm not great with logcats, hopefully a dev will have a look at them for you

Hey,
Thanks for your response.
I mean the KAT-App, it has a GPS fix that wouldnt apply but i eventually go it that working. it didn't however fix my issues.
As for clear sky, apart from the crappy UK cloudy weather i'm all clear sitting outside on a bench (and within wifi reach, winning!).
Im starting to think its a hardware failure but not sure how to test.
Thanks,

Don't forget the tf101 was always plagued with a crappy GPS. Some say the aluminum case, some say weak signal from the hardware. There are tweaks and such to the GPS.conf file but I gave up on it.

Until I went back to stock and started over with root and flashing a new ROM, I had the same exact issues with GPS. I know it sounds strange; but, after a year plus of flashing, my system was laggy, the GPS would never work, and had intermittent sound issues. While that may be more than you are experiencing, it still may be an issue. So, after making a huge mistake of wiping everything off my system (no ROM at all) and having nearly having an expensive paper weight, I went back to ground zero. After the process of going back to an Asus stock ROM, rooting, and flashing Team EOS, Kat Kernel, and the Kat app, my Transformer was better than new. GPS works perfect, sound has no issues, no random reboots, and blazing fast.
So, it might be worth a try of starting entirely over... just a thought. :silly:
Hi,
I m very interested in install the official 10.2 CyanogenMod based in android 4.3, but is in Nightly phase, i am wondering how much time can take to reach a more stable version, and if is posible to follow the changes, issues and fixes in the daily releases.
I hope someone can give me orientation, thx in advance.
Of course you can. Head over to the thread Nardholio started in the Development section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405310
The first post has links to: the official CM site and to the Apex Github. The CM site has a changelog for nightlies. On the Apex Github, they maintain a list of known issues.
It's all there.
I caution you on expectations here. Android 4.4 was just announced with a very unfortunate name. I think Jelly Bean 4.3 has about 60 days to live. It would be silly to expect 10.2 to be stable by then. After 4.4 hits Nexus devices, I bet the Apex guys will shift their focus to 4.4 and we will repeat some of this process...

it will probably never happen.
android 4.4 is just around the corner, so i guess the focus will be swapped on that, as it was for 4.3 and 4.2 before
CyanogenMod will do a final "release" build when 10.2 is EOL which will be the most stable we can make it. We also have a last 10.1 build we consider mostly stable, although it is unofficial. Right now 10.2 does have some stability issues, but most of these will be worked out (there are some bugs in our firmware we will not be able to fix until/if Samsung updates the firmware)

I have random freezes/reboots all the time on the official nightlies -- even the ones people claim are stable. The lockscreen freezes quite often too. Are these known issues or am I just a lucky one? I am running CWM and followed the installation instructions on the Cyanogenmod wiki.
I just installed alogerec and hopefully something will show up to troubleshoot my issue.
Problem with 10.2 nightly as well
I have a problem with the 10.2 nightlies I have tried (all from this week) that I emailed Narholio as he requested.
But since I am a n00b and cannot post to development threads yet I could not post details there. I have not done extensive testing because the screen stays black even though the buttons light up when I try to unlock the phone. I can usually get it to display by pressing the lock button again to lock it, then pressing it again to unlock it right away. This also seems to happen only after the phone has been locked for greater than 20 seconds. If the screen timeout happens, or if press the lock button to lock it, the display almost always works if I unlock it again before 20 seconds is up.
I have not noticed any reboots or other problems, but have not used it extensively because of the black screen problem.
Try http://ls.infernix.net/jenkins/job/apexq-staging/ build 336

I flashed build 336 last night and still have my phone lock up when trying to unlock it. This doesn't happen every time but when it does it either shows the back and menu buttons illuminated with a black screen or an unresponsive lock screen. In either case it will eventually reboot.

I've seen that problem w/ the freezing while trying to unlock when the phone is OOM. If you can actually get it to unlock after that, check your apps memory usage.
Good idea

Thanks for the suggestion. Checking memory is a good idea, although I really don't have any apps at all installed. Didn't even install gapps when I flashed this time.
Is there a preferred way to check for free memory? Terminal command?

Personally, I always forget to close browser tabs and OOM that way. Check in Settings -> Apps -> Running
Look at the apps you use as well.
When Android was introduced, they rolled it out with a set of guidelines called the application life cycle.
In the document, Google specified how to develop applications and what was available. One option for devs that is powerful is running a thread as a service. It was a feature that was supposed to be used sparingly... (A service is a program that runs all the time--unless the kernel panics and shuts down everything.)
Unfortunately, developers know that Google isn't going to do anything to push them to make quality software. The market is supposed to sort it out.
In many cases, this is not working. People are taking advantage of the lack of QA.
Bottom line: App devs are building software that leaves services running in the background all the time--for no good reason, whatsoever. Many of these services are just there to slurp up your data and send it to their servers so they can sell it.
Holding the back button to fix it? That rarely works. The devs have intentionally built their memory wasting crapware to restart the service if it gets shut down.

Yep, did wipe each time I tried multiple recent nightly versions which all do the same thing. The only one I've tried that works correctly is the 20130309 version.

I generally keep a tab open to this Relay forum so I can watch what's happening, but not many tabs. Also happens immediately after flashing, without even running any apps, much less installing any.

I really haven't installed any. And when testing different nightlies I just flashed and it happens right away, didn't install a thing on them.
I decided to stay on a version for a while, so have had 20130920 since Friday, and I've used it long enough to know it is consistent. I have found another way to make it happen: incoming phone calls. When phone wakes that way it almost always happens as well. Today it finally showed the screen when I received a call, but 3 or 4 other calls the screen has just been black so I can't tell who's calling.
I discovered another thing since using this ROM for 6 days. Sometimes I get lines/bars/tearing on screen that won't go away until I lock and unlock the phone again.
I have some other phones that are broken, if I can fix one of them I might consider sending this one to a dev to temporarily play with since it seems to be the perfect test case for this problem. The screen is cracked (I got it used in this condition), which I would normally suspect to be the cause of the problem, however since it does not have either problem with stock ICS, stock JB, or the 20130309 CM I'm pretty sure it's related to something in CM10.2. Just new enough to Android I'm not sure how to track it down.
Thank you all for your help!
I have one of these "rev0 cpu" phones and just recently went back to the stock firmware (ugh) because of the lockscreen wakeup lockups. I have gone 3 days so far with no issues. Until this issue is troubleshot, this is an option for anybody who needs stability with one of these phones. I miss CM very much though.

I also have a rev0 cpu phone, and I had a few lockup/reboots since I finally dove in last Monday (9/30) with Staging build 341. However, without me changing anything (still on the same build), they seem to have stopped. Last one I got was 10/2.
Edit: until just now. *facepalm*

Hmm... Sounds like I need to try again then. I tried one released after that and still had issues, but I will try to make some time later to try it. It is fantastic other than that problem.
newer nightlies
Anyone else having issues with the newer nightlies? I have been flashing one a week for a while now and I'm coming from the 14th. tried flashing the 21,22,and 23 all of them are giving me a boot loop at the samsung screen. I have dirty flashed, cleared cache and dalvik, updated recovery. none of them are working for me. Am I missing something? they don't work so i reflash the 14th and everything is good again.
tried in
CWM 6.0.3.7
CWM 6.0.3.8
CWM Touch 6.0.3.8
all with the same errors any help would be appreciated
This is a problem I've had persistently, I'm only just now getting annoyed enough to make a post about it.
When I first got my Nexus, everything was fine and dandy. Around the end of December though, I had this weird problem where Data turns itself off after about three seconds. I can turn it back on and let it turn off again and fight with it to solve the issue, and eventually it will stop and stay on. I figured I'd give the Cyanogenmod build (at the time) a try, and that fixed it, but had it's own problems (namely bluetooth being very horribad) so I swapped back to stock and sure enough, the problem returned. I don't recall if I did a nandroid restore or a fresh install and a titanium backup of my apps at first because I did try both, neither fixing the problem.
Nexus 5 16gig black on AT&T, stock ROM, only rooted. Any extra information can be posted upon request.

I installed Paranoid Android, I'll update if I still have the issue.

Yes, the issue persists. New info is Paranoid Android v 4.2-BETA1. Obviously, hardware info stayed the same.

It appears it was an issue with Juice Defender. Will update if issue persists.

Try another ROM that maybe AOSP source built, see if problem is persisting. If so, is data weak in your area for ATT and it sounds very possible your device has a hardware issue if other ROMs don't fix this. I'm running Carbon, no issues ATM. I can guarantee the CM issues and your issue are not present. If you try the ROM, problem persists, then device needs to be fixed for hardware I'd suggest.

It appears that was what it was. I have had zero issues since uninstalling it, which makes me sad. I liked Juice Defender, and have been using it on my phones for several years. :c
Hi All,
During the last couple of weeks, with different ROMs I've been experiencing some touch screen issues. I feel like there is a 0.5s delay/lag on the touches which makes using the phone annoying. I can barely type and touches are not really accurate.
Not sure if there is any good app for testing the touchscreen, but I tried one (Test Touch) and as far as I can see, touches are not registered or are intermittently registered when fast touching the screen. (See Video). When I slowly drag the finger, a continuous line is traced.
I couldn't find anyone else having the same issue hence I'm posting this. Thanks for the help.
Current ROM: Temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build, 10.1, CM 12.1 .
Stock kernel.
Edit: Ram use is always lower than 50% and CPU usage is low.

You're not the only one- I opened a thread about this. Seems as something happened as people updated to android 5.x as did with me.
Hopefully someone can figure something out!
Seems more like an input lag- like you mentioned. Really annoying and makes it hard to type fast or use swype function.

I've been having this issue too! I thought it was the ROM, but I am on my second one now with the same touch lag . I didn't have the issue in 5.0, though. I might consider downgrading and hope that that fixes my issue. Any help on this would be much appreciated

Happy to know I am not the only one having this issue , good that we are on the same boat.
I'm travelling in a few days and can't go abroad with the phone in this "working" conditions so I will have to downgrade for sure. Any 5.0 ROM to recommend? A solution for 5.1 would be better
haha I was on Blisspop for a long time before moving to 5.1, it's a fantastic ROM!

I flashed Slim ROM, touches delay improved a bit but I was experiencing some lag on the hardware keys.
I just flashed last bacon firmware (from April 09) and RobbieL811 ROM and seems to be running smoothly, I wonder if it was a firmware issue. Thoughts?
Right, I have the same bloody problem, and I'm seriously thinking of going back to kit kat. What the hell happened, it worked perfectly. Does everybody have an unlocked bootloader? COS12 worked ok, lagged when hot, only after I unlocked the bootloader did it all go to ****. I just hope it'll go back to normal on KK and it isn't a permanent thing now..

I have an unlocked bootloader and have moved from 11S to 12S and find its a lot better. I've seen people say they find the update better and some who have issues but your boot loader shouldnt really come into it. How did you update, what did you do since unlocking your bootloader?

Went with COS12 for a while, then tried a 5.1 rom and it started going down from there. COS12 lagged a lot when the phone was charging, it got very hot for a while, and then cooled down. I don't know why touchscreen issues started happening, it worked ok for some time after installing 5.1, then for instance the settings app started scrolling slowly, the notification panel as well, some touches stopped being registered.. It's a weird issue, because it's not lagging, like skipping or so, but mostly it feels like the phone is in slow motion.

Same happens to mine.
I flashed 3 different ROMs today, 5.1 and 5.0, it was working fine for a few hours with one of them but after that It started with serious problems, to the point of nearly not registering any touch. After a reboot it improved a bit but it makes the phone unusable. I'm flying abroad in less than 12hrs and really need the phone.
Flashing a stock ROM or going to kit kat are the only options I see now.
Edit: Here I found some useful post, they state it's hardware not software.

we're not alone man, multiple threads are popping up with people suffering from similar issues, including on reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/33ky0u/open_post_to_oneplus_with_all_our_love_and/
I am having the same severe issues as well.
The nightmare begun after the 05Q update.
Ever since that update, no matter what I've tried, the touch problem is here.
I've tried numerous Roms + kernels combinations with no use.
OP support was trying twice to reset my phone to full factory reset to both Oxygen & CM11s with no use.
That is so frustrating.
i have the same problem, but only when i go outside and the weather is nice
Hi,
The GPS on my Oneplus One appears to be very close to broken after the OTA update to 5.1. My phone is completely stock - ie not rooted, locked bootloader, the whole lot. Everything else on the device works beautifully.
I've searched around and it doesn't appear to be a very common problem with this phone.
The GPS worked flawlessly on 4.4 and I think on 5.0 (was only on 5.0 for a couple of days before the 5.1 OTA came through).
Using GPS test I can see 32 satellites, but it will very, very slowly fix to 7 or 8 and sometimes get a lock, mostly not.
Is this something anyone else is finding, or has a fix for?
I'm not against rooting and flashing another ROM, it just seems a little overkill when everything else works so well.
Thanks in advance for any help...
Did you tried GPS Fix from Playstore?
Sent from my A0001 using XDA Free mobile app
^^^ Yes, often resetting and downloading new AGPS data can fix this. I use GPS Status & Toolbox.
Thanks guys. "The GPS Fix" app sorted it out. I'm not sure what it actually does behind the scenes but I'm getting a solid lock instantly now.
Is this something I'm going to need to do periodically, or after a reboot to keep it working?
Cheers...

I travel a lot internationally and only have to do it when I go to another region. Once I'm in a region for a while, I just leave it alone.
This is what I used http://ejvyas.blogspot.com/2015/10/one-plus-one-bacon-gps-fix.html
Did it work well long term?
I thought I'd fixed this with the apps mentioned earlier, but it's still pretty poor. 30 seconds plus to fix and then drops out constantly...
Same issue here.. It started after the last update..I travel for business and I use the phone to plan my route.. Last trip had great weather yet horrible drop off. Hasn't gotten any better since..
