since I'm a new member, I don't have permissions to post in the development forum, which is ridiculous ... I get fighting spam, but this is silly, as I'm sure I'm gonna get yelled at for posting my question in general ...
oh well, here goes:
I just installed Pyr'o'Ice ICS Desensed 1.1.2 and everything is working great so far, with the exception of two things:
1. the native browser never works, always crashes, but its no biggie I can use Chrome.
2. I cannot set any custom notifications or ringtones as that dialog ALWAYS crashes. so I'm stuck with stock sounds ...
I can't complain, coming from a stock MT4GS Sense UI this is a big change, but still I would like to report these issues to the ROM developer so they can be aware ... but XDA wont let me post there ... so here's hoping he'll see the post here.
which he probably wont...
if anybody's got any tips to solve my problem, that'll be great, otherwise, I'll keep posting my findings until I hit that magical number that will finally let me post into the development forums ...
Well, you're wrong. Nobody is going to yell at you for posting this here. What would have gotten you yelled at is if you started this thread in the development section.

The browser issue is a known issue. As for the rest did you do a full wipe after installing the rom?
sent from a Nokia 3210
Well, aside the situation when memory gets low, browser is fine here. Also sound changin works.
Do u have custom ringtones on your sdcard?
sent from HTC Doubleshot pyroiced
Browser, and sound selection all work fine for me. Try full wipe if you didn't do so earlier. If you already did, try redownloading.
@tbalden - I have custom ringtones/notifications/alarms on my SD card and it doesn't affect the behavior or cause any problems.
I'm not certain I did a full wipe (still new at this) but I'll try again.
Also another problem related to the notifications, now whenever a new notification starts, it never stops, and they overlap so after a few emails, its a crazy mix of sounds playing all at once.
quite annoying.
Just to be certain, how do I do a full wipe?
in recovery:
1 factory reset/wipe data
2 wipe cache
3 wipe dalvik cache
Full wipe worked.
Notifications now work, gonna play around and see what else, if anything, is broken.
Thanks.
I had problems with sending text messages. Auto-complete didn't work. I'd have to know the phone number. Similarly, in gmail, I tried emailing my friend Jean... i started typing "Jea".. several choices showed up, but none that I recognized (from some really old emails perhaps).

Another bug I found was with the power down button. I held the power button down, and selected reboot, then changed my mind so I cancelled it. Tried again, but selected power off. It prompted me to reboot instead, hit ok; the phone rebooted instead of powering off.

Contact name autocomplete seems to work based on phone numbers, but not people names. So, if I was to type in a phone number, it will find it in my address book.

The Power off reboot issue is a UI problem. When you power off, it says reboot. But its powering off, I've never had a power off reboot issues. Try wiping cache, might helps.

Pretty stable now after the full wipe.
However I'm still having a number of issues still with crashing apps and ui dialogs ...
But before I start posting all the individual issues I'm having, I was wondering if there is a way to monitor/view the syslog?
I'm clueless when it comes to android dev, but I've got enough linux and software development under my belt to figure what went wrong.
I did a number of searches but nothing came up other than hooking the device up to computer and looking at the logs there, I was hoping for something like an app so I can view these problems on the fly.

If apps are crashing from restored backup, you might want to do a fresh install, otherwise you need to find out if they are compatible with ICS

I just tried to power off, it prompted me to power off (not reboot), I confirmed, and it shut down completely.
I started it back up, Selected Reboot, then cancel. Selected Power Off, and it prompts me to Reboot, which I confirmed, and it restarted instead of shutting down.
I just did this twice. Does not seems like just a UI issue. It recalls the fact that I first selected Reboot. Does not do the opposite. So, if I first selected Power Off, cancel, then Reboot, it will reboot correctly.
I'm never going back to android 2. Here's a few other small things I found in 1.1.2:
There are 2 different Gallery apps installed. On purpose?
Under Manage Apps, I found several apps I can't access anywhere, maybe they're not apps, but here they are: Bubbles, Black Hole, Phase Beam.
Sim Toolkit won't run. It say "SIM Toolkit is not ready or unsupported".
Street View is installed, but Maps is not.

Any way to configure my contact list to display a dial button next to contact names?
The battery drained overnight because I forgot to plug it in. I got it charging now, however, when i turn it on, com.android.phone keeps crashing every 2 seconds.
Wiped cache and dalvik cache.. no effect. From Manage Apps, I cleared data for the Contacts app. It stopped... I rebooted.. it's back.

did you try to fix permissions usually helps with force closes
I've looked elsewhere online and seen others who have had my same problem, but not one ever posted a solution and I am stumped.
I am running CM 10.2 on my GSIII and this just started happening tonight after my phone locked up and I had to pull the battery to restart it. Among other problem I had were, the brightness was set to Auto, my Quick Settings panel, will not drop down, my batter icon was reset to the circle among other minor glitches. The biggest issues I am having are with the home button not responding at all, the lock screen simply doesn't appear and the notifications, including the pull down, are constantly empty. Other apps won't function properly, like Swipe Pad and my keyboard is reverted back to default, without any way of changing it.
If anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it and would like to pay the favor back!

Yep, unfortunately this is all that would work. Don't flash the ROM you've already got installed though, that didn't fix anything, I just flashed a different version of the ROM I was on and updated.
Everywhere I read, the suggestions boiled down to reflashing. Pretty much, once you've corrupted the IMEI you're screwed.
Hi Dhiru,
As a "new" user I'm not allowed to post on development forums so I'll left my logs to you here.
Since two or three nightlies ago I'm facing random wifi blocks, it simply doesn't activate. The problem resist reboot, cache and dalvik wipe and also one clean install. Another problem facing in the last nightly (20140710) is a few crashes of launcher and camera app simply not opening. Logs are attached. I'll read more about them to do better logs and simplify your good job with the rom. Thank you.

Hi again,
this morning after rebooting wi-fi works but camera not. In other hand I was able to use internet but the update failed and also the source forge download using the phone. Now I'm running 20140712 with no camera and no wi-fi. There are attached log from 20140710 (or maybe 20140711 I'm not sure) working wifi and 20140712 with no camera and no wifi.
Regards.
Camera working again in 20140715 but too less ram.
Thanks bro

Hi, i've got 140mb ram free after using the zRam advice in this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762873&page=15
Encryption Issue
one of the major issues in Nameless is the impossibility to encrypt the device, to be more precise, when i tap "encrypt device" appears the droid logo but nothing more happens (it should immediately reboot and show a percentage of progress). if i press the back (return) button it return to settings but status bar disappears, the only way to make it come back is to hold center button and remove encryption from backgroud process.
I'd like to know where is the problem
I experimented a reboot in while opening whatsapp in 20140718. Here is the log.
I swapped off the zRam but it still not going smooth. Thank you Articadrake for the advice. I had the same issue as you trying to encrypt when I was using CM11. Then I didn't try again. I think this is a feature of the rom, the same as screen recording but incompatible in a not powerful device as Galaxy SCL is.
I hope they read it also and being useful.

With today nightly, camera zoom fx freezes the phone and make camera (in any app) unusable and the system became unstable such as, passw lock screen freezes after typing the code and goes back to lock screen.... So you type again and freezes.... Till you reboot phone.
With last nightly every time phone entered deep sleep mode, it become impossibile to wake up, tried every button, tried shakung (sometimes worked in the past) now only thing was to remove battery. I had installed "screen off" app to tap and switch off screen without pressing power button. Uninstalled and went back to nandroid backup of 18/7. Everything works fine now, no more problems, only some random 15sec freezes but acceptable

Same Issue
I'm not sure what carrier that you are with or if that even has anything to do with it. But I am with T-Mobile and I initially received the update a couple of weeks ago and right after my phone updated I noticed that my messages would no longer appear on the edge screen. Everything else worked just fine except for that. I called T-Mobile and they had me do a factory reset (which always sucks). After the reset the phone worked just fine for a couple of hours then went right back to experiencing the same issue. I called in again and this time they suggested sending me another phone because it sounded like a hardware issue and she also told me that no one else in her department with the same phone had any issues with their phone after the update (how true that was or if she really even asked anyone I don't know). So I called back in yesterday and the guy suggested that I do not install the update and just bypass it (I didn't like that idea at all but I figured I would give it a try). So now the update updates on it's own and I can't even bypass it. So after a new phone, 5 factory resets and plenty of frustration I still can't receive my notifications on my edge screen.
Please someone help!!

"Hi guys. First of all, i registered specifically to tell you of this solution. It's a very frustrating problem, im not sure if it's a bug too...
Ive tried factory reset, clearing cache (all three times, though it's probably a bit useless considering I'm not rooted/flashing custom roms).
As most people realize, this works until you restart the phone or randomly in the middle of the night as the phone goes into deep sleep mode.
I've tried disabling, enabling apps to no avail.
This is the solution my friends...
Go to settings->sounds and notifications -> notifications on lock screen change to show contents.
You may need to restart the phone.
And notification is back.
Im not sure why this is the case (i have fingerprint lock enabled), but i think this is done for privacy purposes. It will be silly if you had notification hidden then it comes up on the edge screen. So when you have notification hidden, the bug is probably that ALL notification is hidden.
Let me know if this works for all of you!"
It worked for me! Hopefully it works for you too! The only drawback is now everyone can see your messages on your lock screen. But at least it's back (sort of).

I am still facing a small issue with the phonebook as if I am scrolling through the contacts for quite sometime, the screen refreshes suddenly and take me to the Homescreen. Other that this no issues at all.

Can you please advise how I can get LTE/4G back?

Well,
1. Factory reset
2. Flash via odin
LP is awful, i would stay on kitkat.
I have a Motorola Droid 4 running ICS that I use with Chrome for web browsing. I constantly have freezing issues though I can't determine any common denominators between the sites. I've read moving ads cause issues but Google caused a crash this morning and I don't believe they ever have moving ads.
There are 2 scenarios that cause crashes though they could be partially related.
1) When the page is about 80% loaded, the phone often stops responding for quite some time even with good connectivity (both 4G and WiFi). The page either eventually loads after several minutes or I give up and reset the phone.
2) During page load, if I try to scroll the page down (drag finger up the screen) the phone becomes unresponsive. This is usually when the page is mostly loaded but I believe it also happens after the load meter is complete. In this scenario the phone generally recovers but the copy/paste header eventually displays.
In both cases I usually get the various crash dialogs for random apps as well as Chrome (wait, ok). Pressing either button is dramatically delayed and sometimes never takes requiring a restart.
I am fully up to date on all applications AFAIK. I have tried uninstalling or App Quarantine/Titanium Backup freeze to stop things that I've read eat CPU and aren't used anyway (Facebook, Twitter, Imgur, Motorola garbage, etc) but don't see much improvement.
I would love to fix this, but I'm not sure what else I can try at this point. If this is a known Chrome issue, what other browser would be better (Dolphin, FireFox, default, etc)?
I have this exact same issue on both chrome and chrome beta, and im on the nexus 5X on Android Marshmallow, so this leads me to believe it's chrome and not our phones.
I've used lightning browser in the past (since it has adblock and is much more lightweight), but id prefer chrome if it would stop freezing since it works better with lastpass.
in my exp, dolphin is really slow, as is firefox.
