There are a bunch of AOSP rom's for our phone, most of them share the same issues since it's the same code, with slight differences based on which commits they've added. I'm hoping we can list the common issues in one thread as a reference.
1. Data handoffs between 3g/4g - I believe this is now fixed in most of them after the RIL patches, right?
2. Call volume - This CM10 commit (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24564/) should fix this. Not in most rom's yet
3. Bluetooth pairing, call connect, streaming - does this work fully in any AOSP rom?
4. Sleep of death
5. Wakelock caused after playing media (DirectTrack)
6. Camera issues, like save to sd. The JB mod camera hasn't been updated yet.
7. Misc battery life issues - are most of these due to #5?
8. Activation issues after a flash
9. Low video recording volume
10. Notification light problems
11. 160 char sms limit, MMS doesn't work
12. Problems waking up with home button
13. Screen redraw issues (these can be fixed by turning off hardware overlays, but that increases cpu consumption)
I think it would be very helpful if we could track which rom's had which fixes merged, since otherwise it's hard to tell without asking in each thread, doing a lot of searches, and trying out.
Slimbean:
-Wake lock issue still seams to be an issue, battery life is bad
-notification light not working when call/text/email etc come in. Will be patched on next release
-data seams stable enough (ril patch is active on most recent build)
-horrible battery life
-call volume will be patched on next release
-home button to wake up phone is hit or miss
-odd screen glitches every now and then (fully live withable)
-mms sending takes forever, needed several reboots to even get it to work
-if usb fast charge is available in your kernel, it has a toggle for it in the notification tray (awesome)
-did I mention the battery life is bad?
-soft key light options do not work
I'll report more as I find them. I like these threads, good call.

Great idea for a thread!
Add low video recording in all AOSP Roms. As far as I know this has not been fixed yet.

I am using slimbean 2.5 and I am getting anywhere from 16 to 24 hours of battery life on a single charge (3-4 hours of screen) which is about normal for any AOSP/AOKP based rom.
I actually made a similar list, but deals with comparing TW quirks to AOSP quirks:
Touchwiz VS. AOSP
Touchwiz:
- No Bluetooth and Aux input simultaneously
- Wallpaper Cropping forced to non-scrolling
- No way to disable auto volume reduction upon headset plug-in
- God awful front end interface design (this is more of an opinion)
- Google Music will randomly stop working, requires screen to be turned on for it to start playing the next track
AOSP:
- Volume Quirks (upon reboot, media volume will play quiet regardless of where the slider is, if maxxed you must turn it down and then up again similar to the call volume issue)
- Call Volume at Max every call (wasn't this fixed recently?)
- Wrongly uses noise reduction mic for recording (thus quieter)
- Inferior Camera (features mainly)
- Worse battery life
- Sometimes drops data
- Not as buttery as ICS for some reason (recents excluded)
- Will frequently kill background apps, making 2GB of ram somewhat pointless
- Bluetooth streaming issues (This doesn't personally affect me but I thought I'd throw it in anyway)
Basically, the one with the shorter list wins. So, I'm on TW for now but I yearn for the AOSP list of quirks to shrink.

I've been told this has been fixed, but I still experience it. Is there a workaround for this currently?
I believe that there is a big tracker which is linked to on the irc chat. I would link to it but I'm not at my pc.perhaps someone could do so?

This 1? http://tinyw.in/25QW
Number 6 is not really a problem. It's all based on personal preference.
Number 1 was fixed. Sleep of death could be kernel and/or clock speed settings. Mms works fine. There is a fix somewhere for direct track. Battery issues? Umm mines been perfect. That could be contributed to people not knowing what's causing wake locks and not fixing it. Not sure how anybody is getting screen redraws I haven't disabled hardware overlay and mine is fine, using apex if that makes a difference.
Most if not all of those issues are non existent in liquid smooth.
Hope this is the right spot to post this question. I tried flashing 2 separate roms today (Slim Rom and Liquid Smooth) which I believe are both AOSP, but I could be wrong. On both occasions, it starts to boot and gets to the google account login screen and the screen on the phone just keeps flickering and goes black.
I am unlocked, obviously rooted, with CWM 6.0.1.1 and have flashed JB TW rom in the past with no problems but went back to TW ICS, which I am currently running now.
Anyone know or direct me to the right thread as to why the screen flickering happens after flashing these AOSP roms? I haven't tried CM10 yet because these other roms actually sound more stable than CM10 right now.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

That might work, but I cannot even get into the OS to disable anything. It is completely unusable when I flash any of these roms.
Would there be something out there that I could flash in CWM to disable this in the rom pre-boot?

Nothing that I know of sorry.
One of the main reasons I don't use any AOSP roms is because of the bluetooth sync issue. In two of my cars, it will sync for the first time, but any other time I get in the car it won't pair up. I have to manually connect it every single time.
wifi errors, i get out of range and or wps failed on any aosp rom.
I find that signal is just not as strong as compared to Touchwiz roms.

ROM: CM10 M2
Using Android Pro Widgets (the APW People widget in particular), it lags (the widget, not the ROM). Anyone run into this issue? Not a big problem, just curious.
Any word on when the call volume is going to be merged into the CM10 build for d2vzw
Hi. I am asking this here, since I don't have permissions yet to comment in the Note 2 thread.
I installed CM 10.1.3-stable on release day and there are obviously stuff missing compared to stock (like NFC and Beam icons (and the features too i think) in the pulldown menu, hand-over to wake from sleep, etc)
Trebuchet crashes sometimes too but not too often. (but i'd hardly call it stable )
But especially, I have problems with phone call sound quality and general buggyness when it comes to the phone part altogether.
I could not get CWM to install either (screen just flickers and continues boot, had to install some other recovery. (Pointing it out since the install instructions says to use CWM) I know the thread is for Nightlies, but i cant find a thread for Stable. And i dont have permissions anyway.
So i was wondering if anyone knows if there's any 10.2 nigthlies that are better than 10.1.3 Stable, and if it is, when will 10.2 be stable ?
Overall I've had a nice experience with CM 10.1.3 though. Not gonna uninstall. But i hope development will continue
Edit 1: Also, the meter for GSM signal strength also doesnt turn blue until you turn on wifi. But then both become blue if you enable WiFi.
And i dont think ive seen it deviate from 100% GSM strength. I used to have some variance in my house before i think. (but dont quote me on that one)
I've been having screen/display issues (not the yellow hue and separate of the touch screen sensitivity problems). Every now and again, I get flashing, pixilated horizontal lines. I don't see any dead pixels and when it's not blipping the screen seems to display flawlessly, so I'm not sure if it's a software issue or if the hardware is failing. Also it's not isolated to one particular area, it jumps around. Anyone have this problem? Any fixes? I haven't been able to find anything on it. PLEASE HELP. Below is a video of the problem.

Are you completely stock? Any custom kernel? Any rom?
Usually it's a kernel issue - tearing, but it's only present on custom kernels (never came across on the stock cm11 kernel). You might wanna try a different kernel though, if you're comfortable with that.
I have the same issue on my stock rom with stock kernel. the only thing i have changed was the developer options. i changed the screen animation time.

I had exact same issue during recording a video yesterday night !! I am latest mahdi and latest franco...
Funny thing is it went away once i exited the camera... what rom and kernel are u using ?
I've been having the same issue too. I don't have a solution for you, though. I haven't been able to find much about it.
Same issue here, stock all the way, only been since latest update. The update didn't flash properly, it gave an error stating it couldn't be located but i went through the files and it was there and then upgraded OK
I had the same problem. Selecting "Force GPU Rendering" in developer options cured it.
i have stock everything. i'm not rooted.
a reboot fixes the problem temporarily. shoot, all the issues i've ran into with this phone thus far (like the GPS not locking on) is fixed by a reboot. i know a reboot is good to do every now-and-again regardless, but having to do it constantly to fix issues is the sign of a failing device and is very annoying; it shouldn't be something you have to do with a brand new device.
i am facing this too randomly. Am on rooted 38R with Franco kernel. Rebooting is a temp cure but it will frustrating to keep doing it.
This happened to me after getting 38R. Fortunately it hasn't been back since a hard reboot. It would show up on Youtube & when dragging down the notifications area.
I had this today on PAC ROM. When I unlock phone and lock ring animation dots flash up made lines come across screen not sure what it was or why. Just rebooted phone. Back to normal. But trying out vanir later tonight try something abit different.
Also experiencing this here.
Stock ROM, clean 38R install.
Stock kernel.
Rooted, with a few xposed modules.
Started a day or two ago. Haven't found a way to recreate it. When it does happen, a reboot remedies it, but only temporarily.
I will attempt to screenrec it the next time.
I find it interesting that I only see mentions of this starting recently.
Same problem for me since the last update. Restarting the Phone solves the problem for some times. Maybe a driver issue?
Glad to see that it is not a hardware issue.
Same here
Same here, mahdi-2.8-bacon-20141001 ROM, enabled "Force GPU rendering" in Developer options, let's see if this comes back!
I have the same problem on latest cm nightly with stock kernel. And dev options works sometimes but it resets on reboot and my phone reboots randomly all the time. I'm starting to hate this device
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk
I also have the same issue on Stock 38R update + franco kernel r27
It happens after the latest kernel update, before I never had this lines.
Lucky for me I don't have any reboots now but I fear that will come to pass as well.
Got the same problem with Mahdi Rom 2.8 - 20141016
Will be solved in Franco Kernel r28,he just confirmed this on his kernel thread.

same issue here. i have to reboot. its happened on stock and AK kernel. will try enabling force gpu rendering and see if it comes back
Hey Everyone.
I have had this issue for about 5 days now, I started out on CM 12.1 when I started to notice random black screens which required a reboot. Prior to this it has been fine for a few months.
Since then, I have tried a new ROM each day, CM 13, SLIM, RR and Mokee.
All seem to start out fine, restore apps from playstore / settings, phone performance is good.
The next day however is when the issues seem to arise, Sluggish behavior and random black screens which require reboot.
Has anyone else seen such behavior? Im a bit stuck, starting to think there is an issue with the phone.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks.

OFFICIAL and HOMEMADE builds are not intercompatible! You will need to do a full wipe if you are switching from one to the other.
CURRENT ISSUES ON OFFICIAL:
1. Incall speaker volume is too low (earpiece volume is fine)
2. Camera sometimes doesn't start (rare)
3. Blutooth and FM radio can't be used concurrently. If you use either you need to reboot to use the other.
4. Double tap to wake doesn't work
5. Adding fingerprints only works on initial device setup. Adding fingerprints from Settings is buggy.

Been trying this out since yesterday. Nice ROM, very smooth. Its great to see an AOSP rom with 90% of functionality. Battery usage is on par with stock.
One bug that I noticed is that if bluetooth is on (regardless of whether it is connected or not), it'll keep a 'bluesleep' wakelock which preents the device from going into Deep sleep.
Edit: Another note on the deep sleep problem. Even after turning bluetooth off, the phone doesn't deep sleep. Other wakelocks (event3, event4, event6) show as keeping the phone awake. Reboot fixes it and the phone can finally deep sleep.
Are you guys still enjoying this ROM?
Thanks to oshmoun to this amazing ROM i use it every days and i prefer Android 6 for the xposed module
Fantastic rom! Finally got rid of all the crap Sony bloatware.
However two questions. The camera on the back can now only shoot 8MP photo's. I've disbled the 8MP option in the setting, but it still won't let me shoot 23MP photo's. Is there a way to fix this?
Also the fingerprint scanner doesn't seem to function. When trying to add a fingerprint, it immediately fails (registration cannot be completed). Any fix?

about the camera,you need to wipe camera data after toggling 23MP mode. You'll then see the 23MP resolution in settings.
about the fingerprints, thanks for the hint. This is a bug. Sometimes it works though, so you might get lucky if you try a lot.
also, it's cool to know people are using this rom lol
if you're interested, I can post custom HOMEMADE builds that contain some bugfixes.
Notice though that HOMEMADE builds are signed differently, and won't be compatible with OFFICIAL builds. That means you'll need a full wipe before flashing and booting.

ok cool. I'll post an updated HOMEMADE build.
Main bugfixes are:
1. camera doesn't randomly crash at start anymore.
2. bluetooth doesn't cause device to stay awake
3. bluetooth and fm can be used without rebooting the device inbetween (not concurrently though, using bluetooth when fm is on will disable fm for example)
EDIT: build is done, tested and all seems ok

Thanks for the new rom. I'm going to flash it asap and let you know how it works. Keep up the work!
Tried this out today and it works really well. I'll probably try it out as a daily this week, because the bugs seem quite minor at this stage. I'm surprised that this isn't getting more attention. Since the BT bug is fixed, I'm wondering if the same fix will work for CM13 as well?
@oshmoun Nice work! I'm not sure how OmniROM works, but what is stopping you from updating official with the same changes?

Hehe well I'm just doing the building. Awesome people from the Sony open devices project helped fix the bugs
Official updates for omni 6.0 only come in form of security updates, i.e when Google uploads a new revision. That's why i can't update official that simply. Although to be honest I haven't asked if there are exceptions
I've flashed the rom today and it is working very well. The fingerprint scanner now works fine, even from the settings.
Thanks!

Really? It still doesn't work here.
Maybe it's because you did a full wipe.
Can you try adding/removing fingerprints from settings multiple times please? If it works reliably, that'd be great

I flashed the Homemade version yesterday. I too am able to add fingers after initial setup in the settings. I tried to delete a finger in order to retry but the OS shuts down and reboots.
I believe I found a bug. Homemade version.
While listening to Audio, the whole phone locks up after what seems to be random times. I've listened to audio for a few minutes then it locks. I've listened up to around 45 minutes then locks up. Never more than an hour. If it helps, I've had this occur with Google Play Music, Poweramp, and Pocket Casts apps.
To resolve this, I have to hold power and volume up (Force shut down?)

yeah so it's still buggy I guess. I don't think i'll be able to fix that though, sadly. However, I can confirm that the issue doesn't appear on android nougat.

hmmmm, yes you are right. I was able to reproduce that. I think I know why that happens. I used another fix for mp3 playback. The solution that's used in OFFICIAL is different from HOMEMADE.
well, the good news is that android nougat requires neither lol.
Thank you for your time and the build. I've never seen OmniROM before today.
Today I've tried to add some more fingerprints. But now it fails.
I skipped the fingerprint registration during the initial installation and added 3 fingers later, but now it just fails every time.
I also encountered the audio playback issue while using Spotify today.
Hey oshmoun
I'm enjoying your Homemade!
Herzlichen Dank!
Keep on coding! :good:
