Known Issues (regarding latest available Stable build)
Please do not report bugs if it is already listen in the list of known issues
Rarely, when you wake-up the device, touchscreen will have a noticeable input lag, easily fixable by turning off and on the display. (H/W or S/W bug?)
Wireless Display with some TVs could cause issues (AOSP bug related to HDCP, and Google doesn't provide a solution)
Video Stream through Screencast & Wireless Display will have inverted Red and Blue color channels due to BGR Pixel Format (actual Exynos sources don't allow to fix it)
Any Chinese (CHN, I9500XCUxxx codename) Baseband/Modem reduces Call Quality (due to forced AMR_WB, unsupported by CHN modems)
5GHz Wi-Fi Networks using Band B (52-140) and Band C (149-161) channels won't be listed (H/W or S/W bug?)
Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
REPORT BUGS IN THIS THREAD ONLY
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow. Note: If you can provide the latest night/build that the bug didn't exist, it would greatly help in tracking down what caused it.

Read carefully.
Differences between GearCM (Optimized CyanogenMod) and Official CyanogenMod (NIGHTLY):
Degrated Shadow said:
Enough of those dumb questions..
The official CM rom is maintained by @Alberto96 and @intervigil
He makes the very recent changes here relating to performance.. which are then in time pushed to CM official rom. The kernel is different because it has selinux disabled and few minor tweaks you might not even notice.. this gearcm rom will have more performance. But CM rom will have their updated base changes which are included here with each update.
What I mean is you probably wont even notice what's different in terms of user interface.. gearcm will have more performance. Official cm will have updated sources. But it will include gearcm's changes in time as @Alberto96 pushes them to CM
You can decide by a simple choice. more performance and not-nightly updated sources or similar performance (improving with nightly updates) with updated sources. I would choose gearcm because of the reasons I mentioned above. Do what you will.. and let this be a note to everybody who ask this again and again and again. Don't spam the thread with same question in every alternate page.. Because there are other people who might have different problems they need to ask. Read atleast 15 previous pages and the first post changelog before asking the question. Reading most of the times will give you a solution and if not most of the info you will read will help you anyway.

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
Where are "Performance" and "Developer Options" categories?
To activate 'Performance' and 'Developer Options' categories in Settings you need to tap 7 times on 'Build number' located into Settings -> About Phone.
How can i solve problems with Hebrew language?
Go to "Developer Options" in Settings and check "Force RTL layout direction".
What can i do to reduce the "echo effect" while in-call?
Try to reduce in-call earpiece volume (if possible).
I'm having problems with battery life, what can i do?
1) Use "Greenify" to hibernate all apps with a "little cloud + 'Gcm' word inside" on the right of each app's name. Donation version is recommended because it allows deeper hibernation of apps
2) Disable "Location" or set it to mode "Battery Saving" (Settings -> Location)
3) Make sure that your 2G/3G mobile network signal level isn't always low or unstable
4) Deny "Wake Up" and "Keep Awake" permissions to Google and third-party apps. (Settings -> Privacy -> Privacy Guard -> Press menu button and check "Show built-in apps" -> Press menu button again and go to Advanced -> Horizontal Scroll to Device)
5) Disable "Sync" or sync only useful stuff like Contacts
6) Disable "Auto-rotate screen" (Settings -> Display & lights -> Rotation)
7) Use one of the latest Modem/Baseband listed on first post.
8) Disable Ambient Display
9) Install Xposed Framework and configure Amplify
If this isn't enough then replace your battery and/or reduce your phone usage. :silly:
Is GearCM OTA supported?
Yes (Since 20150707 Build)
Why is my phone over-heating while playing heavy-games or running heavy-apps?
Use a bit your brain to explain why. High CPU and GPU usage = high heat production. Your phone will automatically throttle CPU when needed so don't worry, it is safe and normal.
Can I use another kernel instead of the one included in the zip?
No. Only use the included kernel for 100% compatibility, bug reports with non-standard kernel will be ignored.
Can i disable S-View cover features (lock/unlock)?
Not yet.
*** IR Remote app isn't working anymore/was working on previous builds/causes my phone to crash, what can i do?
Contact *** IR Remote app developer.
Any question about "Can't connect to camera" issue
Do not "stress" camera on CM because we don't use yet a proper implementation. Open/Close Camera apps carefully without force-closing them.
fix stock camera try flash this zip https://www.dropbox.com/s/z2a7hegwzu9ft2c/Fix_Camera_Cmmct_5.0.zip?dl=0
Been using lollipop as a daily driver with awesome results. But still there's something that bugs me. Although GPS works fine I find that its accuracy is pretty low.
For instance I run in order to keep fit. I use adidas miCoach which calculates your speed and distance covered giving as result km speed (from Argentina). GPS has a hard time keeping up with this and every time I train I revert to TW and then back to Lollipop.
Will test this GPS and see if its better than team Cajinica
does this rom have working bluetooth calls over car stereo?

Great. Downloading now[emoji1]
"App not installed" if manually install an apk.
Is there any workaround?
@Alberto96 haven't test it on GearCM 11. I'll try and report back asap
Can't install apks.
Although pushing apks to system works. Titanium backup in not able to restore as well.
Edit: I guess Titanium Backup does work. Not with the default superuser though. I flashed supersu to get it working in frapeti's rom, strange.

With GearCM 11 latest build GPS is pretty accurate. Used Waze while driving and miCoach while walking and had good results.
Further testing done with the build posted (20141216) I can't access SD card to install apks that are not from playstore for example BBS, and getting the low memory message even if full wiped and fresh installed.
Can't install APK in this Build ...
Storage Issues
@Alberto96 Hey man there seems to be an issue with your Kernel please take a look at the changes u made as they seem to be the cause of peope not being able to install any APKS and Install from playstore as its complaining about the storage being low so what i did is compile with CM kernel and tested it and the GearCm works fine without any storage issues but if I compile it using ur GearCm Kernel thats where theres storage issues. Please take a look at it
Thanks for your time and dedication of this Alberto. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time with your CM12 Releases
With CM12-20141212v2 (I did a clear wipe) and no RIL Service. So I was not able to use it basically...
Today I gave it a second try CM12-20141216 . I was happy to see my 3G Connection. But when I started to download the app from Play Store. It was impossible. All APKS giving an error.
I will test Canjica Version. It's a pity but I will have to wait till we get to a stable version of Android 5.0.1 with GearCM12.
Despite of that, Thanks for your work on this! We wouldn't have this if it wasn't because of you
Heads Up
Brilliant to have 5.0 on our phones, look and feel is really cool.
Confirmed Working:
Calls, SMS, Internet (WIFI & 3G), Camera, Gallery
FC's:
Music, File manager, Play store (all google apps) & anything else which is on the SD card
Keep it up guys:good:
Application not installed?
thanks for update 12\21 @Alberto96 ...but issue with installing apk is here.
New build is coming with some fixed, especially performance related.
New build is up!
Enjoy

Old Baseband only. New one will be supported when I will have more free time.
Only beta6.6 and above configured to use 2.6.35 kernel!
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Known bugs:
Divx/xvid playback don't work (use MoboPlayer)
Strange crash in Camera (Restore defaults in video mode)
ADW: Widgets: crash after Choose Catalog
Empty device serial number (IMEI is ok, official firmware has same bug)
6.6.1 only: zoom need to be refixed
For apps2sd use Darktremor.
If you get bootloop or stuck at LG logo do next:
Sometimes Recovery can't format /system so you need to clear /system manually. You can do it with this zip (flash as always in recovery), or in mounts menu (clockworkmod recovery only), or with adb:
1. Mount /system in recovery.
2. adb shell rm -rf /system/*
You get 1 error. This is ok.
Will update if I found this bug.

Will be great.
I did not work with debuggin android system at device, but it must be not very hard. "About Phone" bug should be simple uninitialized variable (probably MAC address of wlan0). You can try to find out it. Maybe for this you need to build "eng" or "user-debug" version. Some info about debugging here. I'l try to do this too.
Sorry mik, it is #cyanogenmod-dev . I've edited my post.
Will love to try it.
Big cheers for mik_os and others (andy572)
I was closely following other thread Lets Bake a Gingerbread.
you should explain what kind of recovery we must use to flash it!
great job mik!!!!
Mik, I cannot test it. After install it blows with FC's. Dialer, DRM Service, LgSetupWizard.
I've downloaded the zip twice, wiped everything...

Sometimes recovery can't format /system so do this manually (In mounts submenu must be "format /system").
upd: AmonRa hasn't this future
You can remove all files from there:
1. Mount /system in recovery.
2. adb shell rm -rf /system
Will update if I found this bug.
After mounting I get this error: rm: cannot remove '/system/lost+found': Directory not empty and rm: cannot remove '/system': Device or resource busy

This is ok. Flash zip once more.
Works. The UI is not slow at ALL. It moves pretty quick.
DSPManager does not work. -> FC
Mik, if you can fix the lockscreen issue this could be a daily ROM ! How can we help you ? What can we provide ?
flashing it right now
we'll see
Can you guys confirm if 2.3 actually fixed the touch bug ?

OMG lollipop for our i9500?
This is like dream came true! Very appreciated this guys!
However, the bug concerns me.. I'll let NFC and IR pass.. But can you explain a bit more about RIL? It's radio right? Does mobile network and wifi works on this? Again, this is a very good step to the right direction!
@frapeti great work! you are a hero

¡Excellent! I want to try it NOW :Q_.
I really appreciate the initiative.
just flashed it. sdcard is working! music can be played with apolo, gallery has all my ext sd card photos and pics. can't call, but I was able to run ussd code, so RIL partially works. phone shows 3g but there is no way to get the internet access, so no info about gapps and adding google account. it's great, waiting for updates!

Samsung GT-S7562 CyanogenMod 11.0 Android 4.4.4
Unofficial Release
I proudly present my first Android related work.
The GT-S7560M has a similar hardware except the dual-SIM RIL, so the kylessopen firmware (thanks to jonypx09 and others) was a good initial source.
I reverse engineered the stock Java Radio Interface Layer, and based on that informations, I restructured the kylessopen’s sources.
Finally with my custom telephony-common, telephony-msim java layer, and with the stock rild, and libril*.so binaries, the GSM connection works.
Important: This is an unofficial release. If you find a bug, please send a feedback in this thread.
If you have a problem with the installation, write it down in the Q&A thread.

Changelog:
1. Improved Bluetooth support
2. Most kernel debug flags disabled
3. Added some missing libraries
4. Merged all CyanogenMod source changes
5. Bugfixes
Comments:
I think it's a little faster than previous versions. - What do you think?
You can update system from RC2 without wipe your phone.
You can enable "Force high-end graphics". Mostly, animations are smooth.
I ask everyone, who have bluetooth accessories to test the bluetooth layer, and provide feedback what is working or not (just with log cats).

Updates for RC1 (flash with TWRP):
browser_fix.zip
signal_strength_fix.zip
torch_fix.zip
CameraFIX_v2.zip This will fix the front and back videocamera. Before install this, disable Viber's videoConverterService with DisableService app (Play Store).
If your battery quickly discharges on RC1, disable all bluetooth service (org.codeaurora.bluetooth, Bluetooth Share) with DisableService (Play Store).
Comments:
Working Radio Interface Layer for both SIM card
WiFi direct is not supported, so you can't enable. Use Bluetooth, Dropbox, email etc...
If you want to install Viber, before the first start, disable Viber's videoConverterService with DisableService app (Play Store).
The "OneL+ Lollipop" theme with "IdeaL Theme Dark"'s icons is beautiful.
To prevent sound disruption, enable the equalizer.
About Google Apps, and GService Bug
Fixed with all releases after rc3. For reference see below
Latest gapps (ver. 7.x) has issues, and eat our baterry, so I recommend to install the package that I linked, disable autoupdate in Gapps, and disable GPlay's CheckWifiAndAutoUpdate service with DisableService (from Play Store).
If your Gservices app updated to the version 7.x, you can easily downgrade to 6.x
(you can do this, if you installed my linked package or earlier):
Settings-->Security-->Device Administrators-->Uncheck "Android Device Manager"
Settings-->Apps-->Google Services-->Disable-->Yes, you want to remove updated version

Hey
Hi, Thanks. just wanted to know if one sim card works or 2 are required??
You Nailed it bro! @m4jonez
YES! 100% Verified that we get network on both (you can insert single as well) .
However that the rom is a bit laggy (much better than one would expect from a first build).
Yes there are bugs ! but yeah! there is network too..
Where should we report the bugs bro @m4jones? I found some.
1 network on indian modem is super duper unstable.. so change op and recomended people to flash your modem file.
With your modem , i found the sim networks to be quite stable.
2 torch app is useless as neither app nor widget works. So fix it or remove it
( CAMERA WORKING FINE FOR ME)
COngrats and all the best ! continue your good work
The built-in browser fixed.
Where should we report the bugs bro @m4jones? I found some.

Post it here.
minor problem here:
Signal strength is reported wrong for both sims.
Always shows full strength.
Recognition seems to be working as values are changing but they are much too high. Around 2000dBm.
Phone calls in/out SMS and data rock stable on both sims for me.
Performance is good(better than expected).
Zram is not working init.rc entries(or script) are missing. Maybe a kernel problem too idk ATM.
Thanks @m4jonez you're great!!!!!

Known Issues (regarding latest available Stable build)
Please do not report bugs if it is already listen in the list of known issues
Current Audio HAL doesn't properly wake up audio devices from standby, causing issues with some VOIP apps. Check FAQ for Workaround -- WIP | Highest Priority -- #1
While in-call (on second call) using headphones/headset, audio could be routed to the Earpiece. Enable/Disable Speaker or Plug Out/In the Audio Jack to fix it. (Probably linked to #1) -- WIP | High Priority --
While in-call using earpiece the receiver will hear a little echo effect if volume is set to maximum. Reduce volume to fix it. -- WIP | Medium-High Priority --
After each boot Camera won't take pictures on first start. You'll need to close the app and re-open it to get Camera working. -- WIP | Medium Priority --
Wireless Display with some TVs (HDCP-dependent ones) could cause issues (AOSP bug related to HDCP. Google doesn't provide a solution) -- Unknown Status | Low Priority --
Rarely, when you wake-up the device, the touchscreen could have a noticeable input lag, easily fixable by turning off and on the display. (H/W or S/W bug?) -- Probably won't be fixed | Undefined Priority --
Reporting Bugs
First of all, read this: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
REPORT BUGS IN THIS THREAD ONLY
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow. Note: If you can provide the latest night/build that the bug didn't exist, it would greatly help in tracking down what caused it.

Read carefully.
Important! Read this before any other question/doubt.
If someone doesn't like my ROMs, or doesn't like me, or even better, doesn't want to like/appreciate my works, then you can just go ahead and use/follow someone else works. Easy, not against XDA rules, and smart.
I'm not here for "fame" (or "glory" as someone in this forum said) unlike someone else, neither this is my job. I'm working on this device just because TW is far than usable (at least for me) on every Samsung device, not because someone else requested me to do it.

Differences between GearCM (Optimized CyanogenMod) and Official CyanogenMod (NIGHTLY):
Degrated Shadow said:
Enough of those dumb questions..
The Official CM rom is maintained by @Alberto96 and @intervigil
He makes the very recent changes here relating to performance...which are then in time pushed (even if partially) to CM Official Sources. The kernel is different because it has seLinux disabled and few minor tweaks you might not even notice...this GearCM ROM will have more performance. But CM will have their updated base changes which are included here with each update.
What I mean is you probably wont even notice what's different in terms of user interface. GearCM will have more performance. Official CM will have updated sources. But it will include GearCM's changes in time as @Alberto96 pushes them to CM
You can decide by a simple choice..more performance and not-nightly updated sources or similar/worse performance (improving with nightly updates) with updated sources. I would choose GearCM because of the reasons i mentioned above. Do what you will...and let this be a note to everybody who ask this again and again and again. Don't spam the thread with same question in every alternate page...because there are other people who might have different problems they need to ask. Read at least 15 previous pages and the first post Changelog before asking the question. Reading most of the times will give you a solution and if not most of the info you will read will help you anyway.

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
If there a procedure that i should follow in order to have a clean base to start from?
Yes, follow this procedure and you shouldn't have any issue.
Flash latest Stock ROM Odin package | http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/55812/I9500XXUHOH7_I9500MBCHOF1_MBC | using latest Odin3 Flasher | http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3446301&d=1440131361 | and Standard (not Chinese) .pit file. | http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2343320&d=1382462885 |
After First Boot, Shutdown your device and Boot into recovery mode using 3 buttons combo (Volume +, Home, Power)
Wipe Data/Factory Reset using Volume Keys and Power Button (on Stock Recovery)
Flash latest TWRP 2.8.7.0 | https://dl.twrp.me/i9500/twrp-2.8.7.0-i9500.img.tar | using Odin3 | previously linked | (Untick Auto Reboot to avoid any issue)
Shutdown your device (pull off your battery)
Boot into recovery mode using 3 buttons combo | Volume +, Home, Power | (TWRP will boot now)
Flash latest GearRecovery (on TWRP)
Reboot into recovery mode using TWRP on-screen buttons | Home => Reboot => Recovery | (GearRecovery will boot now)
Clean completely your device (Format Data and Wipe All Partitions)
Reboot into recovery mode as did before (GearRecovery will boot again now)
Flash latest GearCM ROM
Home => Reboot => System
Where is "Developer Options" category?
To activate 'Developer Options' category in Settings you need to tap 7 times on 'Build number' located into Settings -> About Phone.
What can i do to fix VOIP audio calls?
There's not a real fix yet, so i found this useful workaround that could help you.
If you need to make a VOIP call:
1) Play something using stock music player (also third-party music players SHOULD be fine)
2) Do not pause audio playback
3) Make a call using your preferred VOIP app.
Or you can just use a Wired Headphone/Headset | BT Headphone/Headset.
This workaround should work also for incoming VOIP calls.
How can i solve problems with Hebrew language?
Go to "Developer Options" in Settings and check "Force RTL layout direction".
What can i do to reduce the "echo effect" while in-call?
Try to reduce in-call earpiece volume (if possible). Shouldn't be required on latest builds.
I'm having problems with battery life, what can i do?
1) Use "Greenify" to hibernate all apps with a "little cloud + 'Gcm' word inside" on the right of each app's name. Donation version is recommended because it allows deeper hibernation of apps
2) Disable "Location" or set it to mode "Battery Saving" (Settings -> Location)
3) Make sure that your 2G/3G mobile network signal level isn't always low or unstable
4) Deny "Wake Up" and "Keep Awake" permissions to Google and third-party apps. (Settings -> Privacy -> Privacy Guard -> Press menu button and check "Show built-in apps" -> Press menu button again and go to Advanced -> Horizontal Scroll to Device)
5) Disable "Sync" or sync only useful stuff like Contacts
6) Disable "Auto-rotate screen" (Settings -> Display & lights -> Rotation)
7) Use one of the latest Modem/Baseband listed on first post.
8) Disable Ambient Display
9) Install Xposed Framework and configure Amplify
If this isn't enough then replace your battery and/or reduce your phone usage. :silly:
Is GearCM OTA supported?
Yes (Since 20150707 Build)
Why is my phone over-heating while playing heavy-games or running heavy-apps?
Use a bit your brain to explain why. High CPU and GPU usage = high heat production. Your phone will automatically throttle CPU when needed so don't worry, it is safe and normal.
Can I use another kernel instead of the one included in the zip?
No. Only use the included kernel for 100% compatibility, bug reports with non-standard kernel will be ignored.
Can i disable S-View cover features (lock/unlock)?
Not yet.
*** IR Remote app isn't working anymore/was working on previous builds/causes my phone to crash, what can i do?
Contact *** IR Remote app developer.
Any question about "Can't connect to camera" issue
Do not "stress" camera because we don't use yet a proper implementation. (Exynos limited open-source env.) Just Open & Close Camera apps carefully without force-closing them. (and do not do this frequently)

Device Encryption isn't stable for the same issue that affects Adoptable Storage
Reporting Bugs
First of all, read this: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
REPORT BUGS IN THIS THREAD ONLY
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow. Note: If you can provide the latest night/build that the bug didn't exist, it would greatly help in tracking down what caused it.

Important! Read this before any other question/doubt.
If someone doesn't like my ROMs, or doesn't like me, or even better, doesn't want to like/appreciate my works, then you can just go ahead and use/follow someone else works. Easy, not against XDA rules, and smart.
I'm not here for "fame" (or "glory" as someone in this forum said) unlike someone else, neither this is my job. I'm working on this device just because TW is far than usable (at least for me) on every Samsung device, not because someone else requested me to do it.

Differences between GearCM (Optimized CyanogenMod) and Official CyanogenMod (NIGHTLY):
Degrated Shadow said:
Enough of those dumb questions..
The Official CM rom is maintained by @Alberto96 and @intervigil
He makes the very recent changes here relating to performance...which are then in time pushed (even if partially) to CM Official Sources. The kernel is different because it has seLinux disabled and few minor tweaks you might not even notice...this GearCM ROM will have more performance. But CM will have their updated base changes which are included here with each update.
What I mean is you probably wont even notice what's different in terms of user interface. GearCM will have more performance. Official CM will have updated sources. But it will include GearCM's changes in time as @Alberto96 pushes them to CM
You can decide by a simple choice..more performance and not-nightly updated sources or similar/worse performance (improving with nightly updates) with updated sources. I would choose GearCM because of the reasons i mentioned above. Do what you will...and let this be a note to everybody who ask this again and again and again. Don't spam the thread with same question in every alternate page...because there are other people who might have different problems they need to ask. Read at least 15 previous pages and the first post Changelog before asking the question. Reading most of the times will give you a solution and if not most of the info you will read will help you anyway.

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
If there a procedure that i should follow in order to have a clean base to start from?
Yes, follow this procedure and you shouldn't have any issue.

Where is "Developer Options" category?
To activate 'Developer Options' category in Settings you need to tap 7 times on 'Build number' located into Settings -> About Phone.
What can i do to fix VOIP audio calls?
There's not a real fix yet, so i found this useful workaround that could help you.
If you need to make a VOIP call:
1) Play something using stock music player (also third-party music players SHOULD be fine)
2) Do not pause audio playback
3) Make a call using your preferred VOIP app.
Or you can just use a Wired Headphone/Headset | BT Headphone/Headset.
This workaround should work also for incoming VOIP calls.
How can i solve problems with Hebrew language?
Go to "Developer Options" in Settings and check "Force RTL layout direction".
What can i do to reduce the "echo effect" while in-call?
Try to reduce in-call earpiece volume (if possible). Shouldn't be required on latest builds.
I'm having problems with battery life, what can i do?
1) Use "Greenify" to hibernate all apps with a "little cloud + 'Gcm' word inside" on the right of each app's name. Donation version is recommended because it allows deeper hibernation of apps
2) Disable "Location" or set it to mode "Battery Saving" (Settings -> Location)
3) Make sure that your 2G/3G mobile network signal level isn't always low or unstable
4) Deny "Wake Up" and "Keep Awake" permissions to Google and third-party apps. (Settings -> Privacy -> Privacy Guard -> Press menu button and check "Show built-in apps" -> Press menu button again and go to Advanced -> Horizontal Scroll to Device)
5) Disable "Sync" or sync only useful stuff like Contacts
6) Disable "Auto-rotate screen" (Settings -> Display & lights -> Rotation)
7) Use one of the latest Modem/Baseband listed on first post.
8) Disable Ambient Display
9) Install Xposed Framework and configure Amplify
If this isn't enough then replace your battery and/or reduce your phone usage. :silly:
Is GearCM OTA supported?
Yes (Since 20150707 Build)
Why is my phone over-heating while playing heavy-games or running heavy-apps?
Use a bit your brain to explain why. High CPU and GPU usage = high heat production. Your phone will automatically throttle CPU when needed so don't worry, it is safe and normal.
Can I use another kernel instead of the one included in the zip?
No. Only use the included kernel for 100% compatibility, bug reports with non-standard kernel will be ignored.
Can i disable S-View cover features (lock/unlock)?
Not yet.
*** IR Remote app isn't working anymore/was working on previous builds/causes my phone to crash, what can i do?
Contact *** IR Remote app developer.
