Anyone tested? Bugs?
Inviato dal mio GT-I9070 utilizzando Tapatalk

yes i've been testing it like after 1 hour it showep up on Maclaw website....
it has 1 serious bug(like maclaws says) - Wi-Fi failes to start sometimes...20% of times you start wireless it will fail. It just says wireless is turning on...if you reboot it will work normaly again..(until error pops up).
and is a little bit slow...still improvements have to be done... this is first release...
BUT THE REST IS WORKING PERFECT... ....30 sec GPS fix(i was indoor)....no in-call low volume(is actually quite high)...

this is the first public release but i have been using it and testing for a month now...bugs which i found are as follows
wifi sometimes takes too long to avtivate, had to reboot phone
camcorder is dark and flash always on bug
touch doesnt work after restart if dont use the phone for sometime
battery drains much faster than 10.2 might be cm issue
low call volume
other than these no major issue or lag in operations

For me no bugs at all
The wifi bug was there at first , but once I cleared cache it was solved
and the video is not dark and no touch bug either
Only one thing the battery drain is more compared to other roms
But overall its good

for me wifi bug is present
no other issues found yet

Contacts problem
Even though I've backup my contacts in my sd card as .vcf file, after installed CM11 I couldn't restore my contacts, I receive "no such .vcf found" error. I can't see my contacts except Google account contacts. No phone number I also can't access my sd card. cant see it in file manager file.
Do you have any ideas or solution?

for the SD card problem i recomand using ES File Explorer...stock file manager doesn't see the SD Card...
for the contacts problem...take that .vcf card and copy it to computer and open it with something(I think there is something from Microsoft Office Suite that opens it with no problems) and manually get all your contacts.
TIP: when choosing to save a new contact, save it to google account. this way you cand install new ROMS without any problems.

Can somebody test and say if the compass work in the this rom.
It doesn't seem to work for me.

To access your sd card with stock Explorer (it's not stock!) you have to go settings - advanced settings - access mode - root access.
And ES Explorer is the best alternative.

Anyone knows if its better than hybrid? I've been using it since last year and is very solid with ART and no bugs. Should I go for this one or should I stay on hybrid?

@tasosf A LOT better than hybrid, it's sooo smooth, you have to try, backup the hybrid and install it. No need to wipe.

I heard Whatsapp is not working on this build, and that if it works we need to clear the previous back up and then install.
Also, Whatsapp has some issues with 4.4 custom roms?
Can Anyone please confirm this?
Thanks in advance

I found a way to fix my compass maybe it will help you too.
Download and install Advanced Tools from play store and use the Compass Calibration tool in it.

Xposed doesn't work for me. I had a bootloop

It is not working at all, for any phone using ART.
It is important to note that even in version 2.4 final, Xposed is not compatible with the new ART compiler. And at this time, it is unclear if it will ever be made compatible, as it would require a major rewrite if it is even possible at all.

temporary solution:
get all contacts from TMO website manually
That's why you should always sync to Google

Yes! Especially with their new motto! They want to know as much about you as possible... and by syncing your contacts with them, you are feeding them what they need to survive... Reminds me of the Little Shop of Horrors... Google sitting around belching, "FEED ME!"

Copy the MobileBackup.apk to your sd card. You can use 'Super Manager' from the app market. Open 'Super Manager' then go into file manager. Check your settings in Super Manager by going into setup/root and make sure 'enable ROOT function' is checked. Find your MobileBackup.apk on your SD Card and copy. Press 'Back up level folder' twice. Go into 'system/app' and make sure 'system is set to (r/w). Paste the MobileBackup.apk in the folder.
But like the others said... you really should use GMail to backup your contacts.
Thanks!
haha thanks everyone, I think it is just a bug he hasent worked out yet cus when i use the app switch me (kinnda like dual boot, only just 1 rom) I found all of my contacts were there when i tried syncing tm contacts from the .apk I ported ...
my solution to get on my main boot was to save a .vcf to my sd.
BTW- Thanks everyone for your help

Some problems with CyanogenMod 9 Milestone XT720 RC fjfalcon

First a BIG THANK YOU, FJ for the great job.
I have some problems with a build from 16.07.2012
First i can not move app to SD. I can move only 5-6 apps, and no more, so after i installed 10 apps my storage was going to full. /Sorry about my bad english/
I have tried to install Link2SD, but it says Link2sd is updating and did not have icon of it. I lost my PlayStore and have to reinstall the build. After that it was the same problem with a Link2SD and moving apps. My second partition is FAT 32, because the previous build and Link2SD did not work with ext partitions. I see that the second partition after moving 2-3 apps is empty.
When i click on Manage Apps it is closing and nothing happen. After 4-5 times of clicking it is opening.
The Cam is working well, Camcorder too.
I have a problem with a virtual keyboard. It shows for a while and is hidding.
I have tried many ways but still can not flash it. I am an amateur. but I can not ask in the official topic. My posts are not enough.
Can you give me detailed instructions please?

You must have OpenRecovery installed.
Just download the build and gapps. Copy in the Updates folder of OpenRecovery. Go into Recovery mode
Apply Update, search for the file that u have copied.
After Update do 3 Wipes
after that install gapps
Did you find any solution for missing apps problem?
I tried this build couple of times. Its pretty great. Sync with Google-account didnt work but biggest problem was that app thingie.
Everytime i rebooted the phone,(or it rebooted itself) after the CM9 booloader logo a box appears saying: "Updating Android. Optimizing apps xx/80".
When the phone finally starts, ALL my installed apps have vanished. Every time. And the are installed in the phone, not on sd.
Is this a common problem?

The build is great. Google account sync works by me, but the problem with apps still persist. I have tried a couple of gapps but is the same.
I'm waiting for the new builds or for JB )

Yes it is! Beautiful and fast.. Well, loading of the main screen took 4-5seconds when sim-card was in the phone.
Except that, build was faster than Froyo I used. Hope it gets fixed soon.
Is the smoothness of this rom,the same as froyo??..i mean is it stable enough??..

Pictures not showing up in Gallery anymore? Here's your fix!

Can't take credit for this, as I found it on AndroidForums, but I was having this annoying issue on Viper 2.0 and though I would share this just in-case others were having the same issue. This worked for me.
ROM Manager recently updated, and for some unholy reason, decided to drop a ".nomedia" file into your SDcard. This means any media contained within your SDcard does not show up anymore. Here's what you do.
FIrst, uninstall and delete ROM Manager from system/app.
Second, find any and all .nomedia files in your sdcard folder and delete them.
Third, clear the caches of any and all affected apps, such as Gallery, Media Storage, Play Music, etc. Update: you may need to clear data in the Media Storage app as well.
Fourth, reboot your device into recovery, wipe cache/dalvik.
Fifth, reboot and it should be fine.
Any and all other fixes should be listed in here as well.
Do not reinstall ROM Manager until this issue is fixed; even with the new update users are still finding the same issue, so I'd wait a few days.
No one uses ROM manager in the HOXL forums because it has many bugs. Most of us use TWRP/GOOManager

[Q] Uninstalled contacts storage

Hi guys
this is my first thread in xda and I'm quite new in here. The story is I jumped from galaxy s5 to padfone s which I'm quite happy with.
I rooted it immediately and started to remove some useless Asus bloatwares. After that I realized that im not able to edit or add any contacts.
I was able to see them though. So I tried to install third party apps like contacts+ and dialer+. They were working fine but I still had the same problem so I thought maybe the contacts storage is corrupted so I uninstalled it and downloaded another one... But im not able to install the apk. It gives me the apk not installed error.
And now I'm not able to use contacts dialer or even Gmail
any helps please!

Try to save your contacts on your sim card. Or try to install Asus Pasfone stock rom again and see if it works.

I have all of my contacts backed up on Google and gcloud. If install the stock Rome all of my settings and customisations will erase. I was wondering if I can install contacts storage and makes it work somehow!

I've made everything as described. Also, tried to wipe everything and install again, like 3 times. When facebook, outlook and one drive app's are installed in the SD card, they don't save the login and password after I reboot, and then I have to login again.
