So for some reason my gps has bad signal and can't find a lock on roms such as purity and dirty unicorn but not catalysm. The odd thing is, when I ran purity rom a few weeks ago, I never had any issues until lately. Now only catalysm rom has a working gps. Any ideas??
If you pnch the N5 at the upper left corner does it correct the problem? If so the antenna contacts between the back cover and the phone body may be loose. There are videos on YouTube that explain how to fix this, or you can RMA the device or send in for warranty repair.

That would make sense if ALL roms had the same issue but if one rom doesn't then I don't believe the connectivity of the gps chip is the issue
Are both ROMs using the same drivers?

I am not sure. It's just odd that purity worked fine for a long time then all of a sudden it acts up and other roms have trouble to except Catalysm

Any change might cause this. MaybeCatalysm was the only one that not to change the GPS interface.

It's funny cuz when I installed dirty unicorn and catalysm, I did the same exact setup to test and dirty unicorn has the same issue as purity while catalysm is issue free.

Hello all.
Hope you guys can help me figure out a little problem I've been having with my nexus.
Its basically quite simple. I've had this problem with both the infin1ty and oxygen roms.
Basically my phone randomly jumps back to the pin entry screen. Its not a total reboot, it Just goes to the pin entry and its like I just restarted the phone again.
Its happened mostly when the phone has been asleep but also one time when I was using it to browse the web. It just jumped to the pin screen asking for my sim card pin code. Its never a full on total reboot.
I don't know what could be causing the problem. The only connection between the two different roms I'm using is the fact that I use the same netarchy kernel, with set cpu and proton voltage app.
I figure if I didn't have my sim card pin enabled then the phone would just connect to the network automatically and I would be none the wiser but due to security I always have my pin enabled. So its quite annoying that when I go to wake my phone to use for something I see the pin screen waiting for me and no signal. I hope some of you guys can help me figure out what's causing the issue.
Thanks in advance

Hey, what do you know ...I'm not the only one. That's comforting at least.
I just switched to a new rom about a week ago now and same issues...it seems whatever this thing is, it runs real deep. Very annoying now.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Having the same issue - it happens irregardless of which custom rom I use. Doesn't happen often, though, like once a week and usually when I'm not using the phone. Have no clue why...
^^^it must be that we are just a small unlucky minority or else others would probably have found a solution by now.

As a general note you should always clear any and all sim card locks before putting them into any smartphones. They almost all use different protocols to communicate with the sim card and without clearing the pin before insertion can cause corruption and that's how these errors arise.

Every time when I connect to a Wi-Fi network my phone starts to lag really bad. I've tried different Rom's and it seems to be a problem on all of them.
Anyone know a fix for that?
Thanks.

What do you mean by lag? Like your phone stalls and lag when opening/closing app drawer or scrolling app drawer and home screen? Or browser lagging?
I've never had this problem. But you can retry flashing the rom but before doing so wipe data/cache/davlik and format system.

I mean that it starts lagging overall. Everything I try to open it takes forever and sometimes it's so slow I can actually see some system animations frame by frame. I've the issue with stock software(no root) and after I've rooted. I sure hope it's not a hardware issue. Wi-Fi works it's just making my phone way slow and it's downloading via Wi-Fi...
Something else I've noticed-once in awhile when I try to turn of Wi-Fi it will say there is an error and it won't turn on-have to reboot the phone and then it works...but still would slow down my phone....
so if you're not on wi-fi the phone is fine?
What rom are you running currently, and stock kernel or no?

Has to be a hardware issue. Fresh out of the box shouldn't be like that.
Hmm, that is the third replacement and all of them had the issue out of the box....I guess I am just "lucky" then...:-(
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
The only thing you can try is a custom kernel on a different rom, as the 2.3.4 rom has no kernels besides the stock one. I doubt it though since it is like that from out of the box.
Thanks guys. I might try and ask for another replacement phone from T-Mobile then....sounds like hardware problem....

Are you out of the grace period?
Do you have insurance on your phone? If you have insurance you should have no problem getting it replace.
Good luck!
i have flashed almost every GB rom and kernel combination i could find. For some reason my front camera does not work at all. I tried the stock camera app and the lg camera zip with no luck. when i switch to the ffc i get weird patterns and pink fuzz and then nothing can be seen. It also doesnt work for the video chat apps.
Any suggestions?

I bought the phone used so im not sure if it was dropped previously. I never tried the camera on bone stock because i rooted and flashed a rom as soon as i got it. I didnt think to check the front camera until recently when i went to check the quality and saw that it did not work. I tried it on stock rooted, cm7, all the other cm7 based roms (shendu, lezo,etc), weapon g2x etc. with no luck

It might be something as simple as a loose connection. This phone is really easy to take apart to fix a loose connection. Tons of guides online about how to do it

I took the back apart and checked the ribbon connector for the ffc and it was in place and connected. so im guessing it's just a bad ffc module. thanks for the suggestion it was easy to take apart.

Whenever I type fast the screen registers touches that I don't do or small swipes. I originally thy thought it was my fault but now I'm noticing it more often.
Does anyone else have this issue? Maybe its a kernel issue or hardware? Using PA with Franco kernel
Sent from my One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Here you can see when I'm taping each side alternatively it registers another touch further in the middle, doesn't always happen but enough to be annoying.
OK its pretty hard to see, try yourself using screen touch test

I thought I was the only one with this issue. I was gonna reap my fingers off. Wow.
Anyways, I heard CM is issuing a fix coz it has to do with the kernel.
So let's hope there's a fix.

i've noticed this as well - can't wait for a fix i hate having to type slow -.-
omg this is one of the BIGGEST issues i'm having with the phone
when i type fast it sometimes registers a swipe left or down which will either delete the last word (Swiftkey) or make the keyboard disappear
its SOOO annoying...
i really hope this is a software issue that can be addressed
i'm coming from the Nexus 5 which was super solid and accurate for typing
i even tried disabling all screen gestures as per the other OPO threads but there isnt any difference
Same here, but for me some times the app i am typing on gets minimized. Does this happen to anyone else?

Personally I've never had that but I was only using cm11s for 1 day before I moved to Paranoid android. Maybe that's a ROM issue? I've heard of someone else having the same issue as you though
Sent from my One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I installed SwiftKey keyboard and see if it helped that issue. Sorry to inform, not by much if at all. Coming from a nexus 5 too and I thought I just wasn't adjusted to the screen size but it is happening regularly enough to make me suspicious.
this issue is becoming a showstopper for me
its like...70% accuracy or less
either it will have a phantom swipe to left or down for me, which will either delete the last word or make my keyboard disappear
i didnt have any of these issues with my N5. I have my N5 right beside me too and i type the exact same speed and its 100% accurate
something is totally off with the OPO touchscreen and i REALLY hope its a software related issue..

SwiftKey only helps the issue because it is better than Google keyboard at correcting errors when you type. The screen still had the same issue.
Surely hope this is a kernel driver issue that can be fixed. It has been noted by many people and apparently they are working on it or it has been at least acknowledged. I would be surprised if they we would let these phones go out faulty like this without knowing there was a resolution that could be reached....
Got my OPO in the mail on its way. Yet another thing to be concerned about.
Also currently running a nexus 5.

I thought it was my own personal error this whole time. Hope it can be fixed with a software update!
Guys, please help us all out and vote on this issue in JIRA to make it as visible as possible to the CM devs. Create a JIRA account, and then on the right, Vote for the issue and then watch it as well. Also, if you can, comment on it too.
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-55
There are a LOT of people complaining about this issue, and many of us are nervously waiting to find out if it's a hardware or software issue. I'm personally hoping it's a kernel fix that needs to be done on CM's side, or it's something that can be fixed with a firmware update from JDI.
BTW - for more visibility , I found this official JIRA ticket for the issue:
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-55
I hope it gets more exposure. I'm surprised more people haven't complained about this because it's awful.
It's really the only major issue for me though, everything about the phone has been pretty great
*EDIT
oh lol, looks like someone beat me to it haha
I am actually relieved to see other people experiencing this. I use Swiftkey almost exclusively, installed it first thing, and I thought they must have done something, because I have had to focus on slowing down how quickly I type. I am bummed to know it's my phone but relieved to know it's not just me.

No one said its a kernel issue on JIRA. I was the one who posted the issue first on XDA and someone replied to me and took the initiative to put it on JIRA. I've been following this from day 1, and the CM devs said they're looking into it. Never said if it will be fixed or not. We can only hope.
Also please notice the CM devs may have accidentally merged two issues into BACON-55. Please only talk on BACON-55 if your issue is related to fast typing and the multitouch issues.
