Trusted Face not Working
always force stop

Performance of my GT9105P really improved after flashing this rom (previously it was working on Andi's CM12 build). Great job Andi! Thank you!

Try this GApps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/hdpi-google-apps-5-1-t3066172
Choose the HDPI (240 DPI) Std:-Gapps

It works! But...
So, I managed to get it working after much trial and error being a complete newbie to the process (some 4 hours or so of labouring to get it working heh..)
But the catch is, the only thing I can't seem to get working is gapps. I've tried a couple of random GApps sources so far, namely PA's Gapps and the CM 12.1 Gapps on the cyanogenmod wiki, both to no avail as they produced errors such as that google play services has stopped working. Google Maps is effectively my lifeline to getting home so I'll have to bring another device with me in the mean time, but I'd prefer my phone to be more than a slick business-only device!
Anybody else finding any luck in installing gapps?
edit: tried the gapps link in the post above, same issue occurs

Do full wipe and factory reset, wipe cache, then flash ROM and GApps.

Do you have any instructions on how to do this?
So far I've tried all of these (not in order) (in CWM recovery):
formatting /system, /data, and /cache,
clearing dalvik cache
wipe data/factory reset
... and flashing the ROM + GApps afterwards, but maybe I'm missing a step?

Which version is more stable for daily use; cm12 or cm12.1?

How can I change DPI with this CM version? I tired Texdroider DPI app, but SU kinda doesn't let it change DPI.

Restoring FM Radio and Wifi Direct
is there anyone solved the problem of FM Radio and Wifi Direct For all CM Roms ??

Hello. I'm new here and I can say I'm really happy that my phone is fast again.
I have only one serious issue. Is there a way to make camera save videos and pictures to SD Card? I do take a lot of videos an pictures.
thank you.
EDIT:
Camera FV-5 seems like the only app that can change saving destination of fotos and videos.

screen bug
I forgot to switch my phone off during an exam and forgot about it in my pocket. Before the exam, the battery was fully charged, 100%. After the exam, when I took the phone out of my pocket, it was warm and the screen was already turned on (??) and the battery was at 80%. I went into the battery stats and it showed the screen had been on for 1 h and 40 mins. Wtf the screen had been on in my pocket for all that time killing battery! Not even sure what happened.. I mean did it keep unlocking itself in my pocket or something? Wat?

Hmmm, I have not experience any kind of issue like that or with battery. Maybe some app or indeed it was unlocking it self.

Well the battery was drained due to the screen being constantly on.. I don't have many apps installed atm.. this phone gets really slow AF if you download too much I should upgrade lol

Black Screen
When i have incoming call , my screen gone black and i cant see who call me and i cant answer them

works perfectly for me - no restarts, runs smoothly, battery life over 1 day without problems (surfing the internet, youtube and music player)

wifi not working after following installation instructions
I installed CM12.1 following the instructions posted here. This is not my first time (I did it with other phones) but this time I must have done something wrong. The wifi does not work and the phone restart every few minutes.
What can I do?
[Edit] looks like I forgot something, after all. I wiped all caches and system but forgot to wipe data. Probably something was wrong with some configuration. Now wifi is working and the phone is not restarting.

i like the rom very much and used 12.0 long time and before that CoolDevelopment's rom
but id like to install the official rom out of curiosity but the boot stops at the samsung logo flashing
ideas?
thanks

Shouldn't be any reason you couldn't use TWRP. I'm pretty sure nard himself uses it. The CWM was a CM project for a long time, and still the recovery built within it. Everyone pushes their stuff.
been running M7 for about a day now. had one fc with touchdown, my work email client, but otherwise looks good. surprised i had to manually change build.prop to set the dpi. i'm not blind, so i hate the trend towards gigantic fonts even on smallish screens like this one.
i also wasn't able to use tibu to restore securid from my old phone (vzw droid4) but i suspect that app uses some system properties like imei to create its security, so it can't be moved... not a problem. just have to do clean in stall and reimport the token.
one thing i noticed even in cm11m2 on my d4 as well as on this phone in cm11m7 is that the included sms app doesn't actually have a dark theme, and that sticks out like a sore thumb. even when you check the box for dark theme in the sms app itself, it's still white. not a huge deal obviously but doesn't match the rest of cm's normal polish.

The "use dark theme" option only applies to the quick reply pop up windows. The option is conveniently listed in the "quick reply" section.

doh, you're right. my point still stands about messaging not matching the rest of cm's theming. i guess they expect people to just use chomp, go, handcent or whatever other app... i like the standard one in cm tho. except for how light it is.
What did change from the blobs for the builds after 14 /06 ?
Running 14/06 now, really good, battery charging issues are gone (i think), because a new kernel/other blobs.
Where can you find more info about blobs changes (propetary) ?

which build are you on? i'm running cm11-20140608-Snapshot-M7 (which is 4.4.2, not 4.3.3) and have no issues to report so far. i haven't given it a full shakedown yet - still haven't tried BT or GPS but so far so good. watched netflix on the bus this morning and never had an issue. my wife and i text a lot and haven't had issues w/ that either. this evening i'm going to try out BT with my elm327 obd-ii adapter and if i have time, test audio over an avantree cara adapter. i started google maps a couple times and it found me quickly and accurately but i haven't run gps for more than a minute or so at a time so i don't know how it'll do. maybe i'll turn it on while on the bus this afternoon and see if it works well for the whole ride home.

After a few minutes of playing with the CM M5 smartphone burned and became slow. Now the smartphone with the stock firmware does not burn more but it is slow. It works well this M7? You recommended me?
For a few months I used CM kitkat but I had to do a wipe. Now I do not know how to install the CM. I'm using the stock firmware.
To install:
1 rooted smartphone.
2 I copy "cm-11-20140608-SNAPSHOT-M7-apexqtmo.zip" in memory of the smartphone.
3 CWM 6.0.1.2 "install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard" I select "cm-11-20140608-SNAPSHOT-M7-apexqtmo.zip"

First, use the most up-to-date recovery; I'm pretty sure that cwm 6.0.1.2 isn't it if I see 6.0.4.7 on other devices. I like using TWRP personally, and there's a thread in this forum for that. The outdated recovery is probably the main problem right there for the failed flash.
Second, it doesn't look like you wiped anything in your steps. No factory reset, not even wiping cache and dalvik. Most people do a clean flash (that's a factory reset in recovery) when troubleshooting a failure to install a custom ROM.
Try using the latest recovery, wiping at least cache and dalvik, and see if it helps.
Good luck

i second this. my steps were:
1- boot to download mode, install twrp
2- boot to recovery, flash CM
3- while still in recovery, flash gapps if you want them (make sure you have the correct version of gapps from the CM site)
4- still in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik
5- still in recovery, do factory reset
6- reboot normally (it's called 'system' in twrp) and start using phone
note that there is no need to copy/flash SU at any time because CM is already rooted.
using nightly 22/06 my phone slowed down to unusable slow, flashed 24/06 yesterday.
Never had this before on cm nightly's for the relay.
And the charging (usb) problems aren't over yet (sometimes it works fine for a few hours, sometimes a few minutes).
Did a clean install a week ago (didn't solve anything).

Ok. Now, find out what version of cpu you have and get some logs to help them track down your problems.
There's a search box in the corner.
I don't have any of the problems you are describing and I am betting the developers do not, either.

I am on T-Mo, I get this via the default android messaging app as well as hangouts, but I also have times where mobile data refuses to work as well.
Right now, I'm having this issue on 11-20140608-Snapshot-M7-apexqtmo. I did wipe data and cache before I flashed. I'm not sure what is causing my issue.
I am tempted to reflash it back to factory, and take it back under my total care and get it replaced for a S5, but I really like my keyboard. :crying:
did you wipe cache and dalvik after flashing the rom? the only quirk i've noticed on m7 is that if i don't reboot every couple of days, my work email program (touchdown) likes to get slow and crashy while composing emails. going to the recent apps drawer and closing everything there usually fixes that. gps and bluetooth work fine even at the same time and battery life is great. after having tried multiple roms on my droid4 and having gps and camera issues, i am pleasently susprised how stable cm is on this relay (which i've only had a couple weeks now).

I even tried that too. My phone's about a year and a half old now. I've noticed recently if the keyboard is out, or i'm holding the phone sideways, and I get a call, the phone app crashes over and over till i rotate it upward so the display is vertical, then it stops crashing(all while the phone is still ringing so I can still answer it.)

Titanium Backup
Can't restore apps with Titanium Backup pro. Just hangs at 0%. Tried 12/24 and 12/22 release. Not the apps because I can install individually. enabled root for apps and adb and gave titanium root access. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong.
I'm currently on bumpd cloudy stock 1.2 and cannot get illusion to flash either on my external or internal SD. What's the trick?
Idk what I'm doing wrong I'm coming from cm nightly. I'm trying to install this rom. I have cleaned flashed this like 5 times already with different downloads and I either get a boot loop or I get Google services crashes or I'm getting illusion home crashes. Some please help me. I'm so confused to why this isn't working..

External SD Issue
Am using as daily driver. Haven't been able to get it to recognize my 128 gb card. Have reformatted on both the phone and pc.
Clean install every time, wiped everything including both internal and external. Have tried what someone had suggested, install ROM, setup and then boot into recovery and install GAPPS. For now am using 64gb card. Any help would greatly appreciated. Great work, can't wait until this little hiccup is resolved.

Bluetooth issue
Hey i have been using this rom for a couple of days now and it is awesome. It definitely tops the other ROMs that I have tried for this phone by far. The only problem that I am having is that I cant get the Bluetooth to connect to anything. Is there anything that I can try to get the BT working?
sorry if i'm missing the obvious, but is there a way to turn off the notification light while charging? i didn't see it in the 'display' or 'sound & notification' menu under "interface". thanks

Stupid question, is there OTA update with this release ?
Also, coming from daleski stock build do i have tout reflash gapps after dirty flash ?
Signal Issue + Battery issue
I'm having modem issues, no matter what I do. I was stock, with 44S. Unlocked bootloader, rooted and flashed CM12 + gapps. The cell signal is very weird, it works but drops from time to time. My BetterBatteryStats says "Unknown or No Signal" at 100% of the time. I've cleared cache, dalvik, Flashed 44S modem, reflash the whole rom, and nothing! Without airplane mode I got 200-329mA each 10 minutes, normally it is 10-14mA (with airplane mode). Anyone know what do? Any reply would be appreciated.
Thank you
My findings so far besides the known bugs:
-Screen randomly wakes up while listening to Spotify.
-Screen brightness not very stable, used it in dimly lit room and it kept going brighter/darker.
Besides these I noticed that if you flash the rom with the gApps provided in the OP you will keep the original apps so now stuck with 2 browsers, original mssg app etc. Tried to reflash with Bpear but kept crashing, same for PA- google apps.
ota
Curious to see if this will OTA
So far really smooth.
Don't have cellphone network drops
I did not have this problem but I did have to set the network prefference to 3G else I did not get a signal. Maybe that helps.
Does somebody recognizes this behaviour?
When I receive a call my screen stays black, and I have to unlock the screen to answer the call.
I flashed the rom after I wiped and cleared the caches...
Hope someone can help out, or maybe recognizes it as a bug.

Is there any way to enable hot words when the screen is turned off in CM12 yet? If it's possible with a mod that would be ok I guess. Any help would be appreciated.

Google Apps
I mistakenly forgot to check flash the google apps provided in you description before booting cm12, and now I'm not quite sure how to flash them. I tried to download the TWRP recovery app directly to my phone through the browser app but it crashes every time I open it.
The zip file is already on my phone. How can I flash them?
Thanks
On the latest build (1/10) when I take a screenshot the screenshot notification gets stuck at "Saving Screenshot...". The screenshot is taken and saved but I am unable to clear the notification from the drop down tray. I have to reboot to clear the notification.

Same way you flash ROM, well besides wiping any partitions. Every time you update ROM you need to flash GApps.
Does anyone know anything about screen off CRT effect as in is it coming to cm12 and is it available for 11? I remember cm7 had it along with stock lg ROM having it. Thanks.

The low volume is software issue?

Not software issue, but configuration. see HERE. **Warning** I wouldn't set the values too high if you value your speaker. I set mine to 58/70/70. Hope this helps!
I attempted two seperate clean installs, and in neither could I gain root access. Am I missing something?
Gapps package link if possible please and thank you and I've been on lollipop Gapps thread but seeing there having trouble with some things just wasn't sure
usb computer connection
I did clean flash . But when i try to connect phone with computer via usb, it won't detect phone . In storage there's an option for usb computer connection but nothing happens . Phone goes straight to charging mode and i am not getting any option for switch mtp ptp or charging mode . Is there something, i am missing .
Chrome Tabs not able to switch
I am on the latest nightly and can't seem to change tabs in chrome (it won't let me swap or close specific tabs) I have taken a logcat and Attached it to this post. is anyone else having this problem? i am in the process of backing up and wiping to do a clean boot to check to see if i can reproduce this problem. I will update this post if I am or am not able to reproduce this problem and update the log if needed
***UPDATE*** Wipe and clean install seems to have cleared up the problem
Speaker quality
Did a clean install. Everything works well. Except the sound. At low levels it sounds "OK". If I turn the volume up, which doesn't seem to be loud at all, the speaker pops a cracks like it's blown. This happens irregardless of the music/movie app being used. It happens on notifications. I've been lurking the forums and searching threads trying to find some mention of the same problem. I'm a confessed noob so please be gentle.

Thank you for your reply. I did see that while searching and I did try it. It didn't resolve my issue. At very low volumes there is no static. Anything above half will produce a static crackling sound. To the point that it overwhelms the music. I made a backup and restored my factory backup. The speaker works fine with a rooted factory setup. I've not seen one person describe the problem I'm having in the pages that I've read. That makes me think that the problem is either with the way I installed the rom or with this specific phone. Ill wipe it and reinstall again. Again thanks for taking the time to try to help.

I see, a clean wipe along with this fix should resolve the issue! Good luck :good:
folder mess
i'll start out by saying i'm one for simple and logical folder orginazation
that said, is there any way to turn off the emulated storage symlink mess in cm12? i don't plan to use multiple users (never have, never will) and i'm tired of the multi user garbage in newer versions of android. i just want a simple setup such as /mnt/sdcard0 (1, 2, etc...) like old android had. if anyone can give me instructions on how to do this i'd be thankful as the new system makes a mess out of gallery apps and the like. if not, i'll probably just backdate through android versions until i can get to something that behaves like 2.2 did with folders.
Any word on exfat support?
I found the file that I used to flash when I was on LG OG, it doesn't seem to work with cm12. I world flash my new/updated ROM and then flash this to get access to my ExFAT sdcard.
Maybe someone smarter than I can tweak it?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wv7v6jzzz7zwfvf/CM10.1-AOSP_fuse-mountsd_6.2_HMkX2.zip?dl=0
Is there a way to make the icons on the home page and app drawer bigger? I am using this with the nova launcher.
1.19 version.
Thanks

don't waste your time. I just tried resurrection remix L5.0 and it does the same thing. speaker playback crack/pop with clean install. This is probably just one of those issues that will require time to sort out. Shame too, because I really want to start using Lolli roms...

I have the same problem. I have searched and searched but been unable to find any way to access Recents. Long pressing the home key does nothing. I also tried the Recently app but could not figure out how to get it to activate.
pretty awesome !
after flashing "Slim-skyrocket-5.1.1.alpha.0.3-UNOFFICIAL-20150607-0208" I keep asking myself "why my battery is not draining" It's like -0.5%/hr during deep sleep.

Not sure. Maybe stock video player doesn't support that video format.
Try MX player and tell me which video format is not working? Oh boy ! ?

SlimLP - Skyrocket
Hey everyone. I am currently 20150607-0208 version. I am thinking of switching to the latest version with the F2FS support. I need guidance on how to install this specific rom. Just need to confirm few things. So i wipe date and cache to F2FS and i wipe dalvik cache and system in the normal way we usually do? Then I flash rom and gapps? Thats it?

Format /data and /cache to F2FS. Then wipe /system and /dalvik (yes, clean flash). Make sure you make a nandroid backup first. This will also preserve your current file system type for data and cache for when you restore, if needed.
You might want to wait until my next build is posted to try it. There will be a bunch of things fixed as well as new features.
Help needed. Strange problem
Hey. I really need help here. I have been using SlimLP for quite sometime now. No issues no nothing. I was using the latest rom with the F2FS support. I was using it and suddenly it flashed, vibrated and kept on vibrating. I did not pay much attention. Took the battery out, reinserted it and it worked fine. I was already thinking of trying Paranoid so i had already put the respective rom and gapps in the phone.
So i changed the rom and clean flashed Paranoid. It worked fine for a few days but i started experiencing the same problem again. I use the phone, it flashes, vibrates and then keeps on vibrating. I try pressing power button so it shows samsung logo, starts to boot as i can see the paranoid icon, but breaks in between and the same thing happens. But sometimes its able to boot properly. I use the phone for a while and same thing happens.
I clean flashed this rom again. Same issue. Clean flashed the previous Slim rom. same issue. Restored backup from slim rom. same issue. Restored backup of my stock jellybean. Same issue! Please help!
My phone is currently sitting idle and i am not experiencing any issue. As soon as i use it, after a minute or two i face this problem. Please help.
Help with google
Thank you very much for the hard work and do appreciate it all.
Am coming from a different rom which is also 5.1 and am using latest philz touch recovery. I cleared everything including dalvik cache and
flashed both rom and gapps and the phone boots up successfully. Am actually enjoying the rom but my problem is i can't setup google account on the rom. It force closes during the account setup process.
Re-flashed the rom successfully, as the first time around it did not ask me Language or Google account info and Google Play services kept crashing endlessly. Maybe I just needed to flash it again, or maybe the Gapps package I got didn't agree with my setup (now using Slim_zero_gapps.BETA.5.1.build.0.x-20150820 and it seems to work ok). Thanks for the upload! I have been looking for a good custom rom to run my i727 until I upgrade to a newer phone. The BEST rom I had before was SlimKat Official for Skyrocket, but it's a bit outdated don't you think? It's very nice to see a new interface; really brings a freshness and new appreciation for my old hardware. Thank you.
Also, I am kind of curious about how to view currently opened apps. I used to hold the home button to do this so I could cycle through and kill them if needed.
-Edit- August 26, 2015 2:18 P.M. CST I really love how smooth this rom is at times, but other times it gets laggy and crashes apps after a couple moments for no reason. I did use a custom PIT file to re-partition my i727 so may be other variables as well. Has anyone else had apps crash on them?
no audio through headphone jack
i have done a clean flash and install of the new build of slimlp (nospamdan) having issues with audio coming from headphone jack when jack is removed all sound disappears music wise
