Just so you all know I started off with a freshly flashed DI18 .tar.md5 through Odin and a clean microSD card. Without ANY modification I went straight to the stock recovery and used the update.zip to bring me up to EB13. From there I logged in and installed all my apps from the Market. I didn't use any backup programs like TitaniumBackup and didn't restore my data.img from 2.1.
Here are actual bugs that I've confirmed:
Keyboard
* Stock Android keyboard word suggestions still don't work. Install the Gingerbread keyboard off the Market.
Camera
* Laggy Camera & Sports mode FC. Flash a ROM that includes this fix such as the Genocide kernel.
* HD video recording: the stock microSD card is SLOW write speeds causing the camcorder to crash when it can't write to the card. Solution: Don't use 720p.
* Since Android 2.2 and below doesn't natively support multiple cameras, many apps handle the front camera differently causing some programs to rotate the image.
OS Bugs
* Rotation Lag. Fix is in this thread.
* Status bar brightness is MUCH LESS SENSITIVE. Slide your finger slowly WITHOUT pulling the notification bar down.
* Audio Out fixed in this thread.
* Compass is 180 degrees in the wrong direction or erratic. Refer to this post.
Audio
* External speaker is sometimes stuck constantly playing white noise (DSP is running and using necessary battery power). Not sure if related to next issue.
* Annoying white noise is playing through the phone. Using Bluetooth A2DP and normal headphone jack I don't hear it. But I hear it a lot through the media dock.
Touchwiz Browser
* Uses tons of memory 60MB+
* Extremely unstable and slow I can't even believe they released this.
Market
* Many apps are missing from the Market. Protected apps are now showing up.
Modem/Connectivity
* Slow 3G speeds (sometimes 4G). Problem comes and goes. My fix: Airplane mode, use astro to kill all apps, exit airplane mode and wait for 3G, then airplane mode, kill all apps, exit airplane mode. Test with Speedtest.
I'll update with problems I find in this thread that I can confirm personally.
I tested out what would happen if I used the data.img from 2.1 and discovered that any program that synced with contacts would force close (Twitter and Facebook) and my calendars didn't sync.
Other than that everything worked fine for the 20 minutes I played with it.
This means that if you updated from 2.1 without clearing data, expect problems.
Camcorder issues
Basically its laggy out the ass...moving the camcorder around blurs everything...never had that with di18.
On a side note though, editing text fields with swype now is MUCH easier.
And 4g connects WAY faster

Thanx.Dolphin Mini is nice and would be my number one but Dolphin HD is better for now because it automatically hides the tab/progress bar giving you more screen estate,while on Mini its always there-it takes away screen room.
They said on other phones going to 2.2 that if you uninstall and reinstall apps they'll function again. Just like some app updates.

Looks great. Most everything seems to function. There are some graphics issues. Pinch to zoom feature in Google Maps is non-functional and the Market link seems to be broken. I tried installing Google Maps through the Market and it just says "installation failed." I also could not seem to get a fix with gps in maps. The copy-and-paste feature in the browser is not there (expected). This also comes with the HTC stock kernel. Great work!!! I can't wait for more progress to be made on this.

I tried it, found same issues as others. One thing no one mentioned that I saw, were graphical artifacts when selecting icons or typing. Otherwise this is a great start.

also noticed the camera has settings for 1mp 2mp and 3mp and that's it. and cannot add a facebook account, although it was listed. I had no problem with the market, worked just fine for me, however there was one google app that didnt load, not sure what it was, gmail worked fine, gps worked fine for me as well. Looked really nice, when the final version is ready It's going to be hard not to use it!! artifacts in animation of buttons and scrollers was visually the only thing i noticed.
When I ran Linpack, I got anywhere from 6.5 to 7.1 MFLOPS.

I tried out the Cyanogen Mod last night, and have found pretty much exactly what everyone is saying in here. VERY good initial release! Exactly the Vanilla Android I've been waiting for. I does need some ironing out, so I'm going back to my rooted stock for now. Just hope my internal 8GB isn't totally shot! (I did do a backup, so I should be safe.)
Tried it and it installed successfully but it got stuck on the Nexus splash and never booted. I waited 15 min, took the battery out and went to recovery in nandroid. It was CM5 not 6 on my ROM Manager.

My CM5.0.8 Experience so far:
This is my first Android device, so I'm a bit of a n00b and certainly am still learning, so if anything I say isn't quite...right, that's why. I'm only going off what I've learned so far on a stock HTC Incredible with Sense.
Roms can be found at inc.sodpit.com
EDIT for clarification: This is a 2.1 ROM
So anyway, since I'm too impatient to just wait for 2.2, I tried out CyanogenMod 5.0.8, Jager1.62 and Unrevolved, and CM5 is the one I preferred. Not that I don't appreciate the hard work that went into the others, this one just suited my preferences as far as amount of Sense still incorporated. This one has no Sense. AT ALL. Not the dialer, not the message app, not the browser, nothing. All are stripped-down, bare-bones Android apps, and that's what I wanted. And the boot animation is badass
I'm gonna give it a shot as a daily driver for a few days (I hope CM cooks up a 2.2 within a few weeks) and try to update this post as to what I find. I will try to compare everything to a stock Incredible, to try to be helpful to those of you switching from bone stock.
I'll give the bad news first:
1) Already known, are issues with screen artifacts when typing, sometimes when scrolling (depends on what is scrolling) and occasionally during system animations. It is still VERY liveable, and really doesn't interfere with anything, so I'm fine. I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
2) I have noticed that Pinch-to-Zoom doesn't work in the browser. Double-tapping will have to do for now. Remember, this isn't the Sense-ified browser, as far as I know, it's stock.
3) It says "T-CMDA 64" on the lock-screen and on the Notification list. I personally don't know why, but I dont really care either. Everything works as it should.
4) Coming from the Sense dialer, the stock dialer seems to be lacking a bit...maybe I'll try out Dialer Pro. Similar complaint with the Contacts app.
5) I THINK (I very well could be wrong) that the stock keyboard might be from Sense...but i'm only 50% certain, so don't quote me on it. My issue with the "stock" keyboard that came with this ROM was apparent only in the Market. It would disappear every time I got a notification. For example, I found a few programs I wanted, and started downloading them. As those downloads finished and installed, I would get notifications telling me so. Every time I got a notification, the keyboard would disappear, erasing what I was currently typing (while searching for the next program to download). I remedied this by installing the Droid X Keyboard .apk, which is free, and available in the Incredible Android Development forum. My only issue with the DriodX keyboard is the lack of haptic feedback, but hey, in exchange, you get a very snappy multitouch keyboard, perfect for those of us who want to hit some serious WPM on our androids lol
6) Camera currently only seems to support 3MP. Not sure why this is. I have not tested to see if the pictures taken ARE only 3MP, or if the camera app simply doesn't have 8MP in the options list.
7) My BIGGEST issue (and remember, this is a VERY early build) is that currently, CM5 doesn't support internal storage access. So any music, videos, etc. you might be wanting on your phone will need to be on an SD card.
8) Since internal storage access won the slot for "my BIGGEST issue," the #2 slot goes to non-functional bluetooth. It simply won't turn on.
Now for the good:
1) Like I said, the boot animation is wicked.
2) Stock lock screen is way better than the Sense lock screen. It looks better IMO and allows you to turn off the ringer right from the lock screen. Also, the phone can be brought out of sleep using the optical trackpad, and furthermore, can be unlocked with the optical trackpad. Translation: Pull it out of your pocket, hit trackpad twice and you're in.
3) CM5 comes with ADW.Launcher. Graphically, I prefer it to LauncherPro, but the LauncherPro supports homescreen rotation, so I swapped these out. EDIT: You CAN turn on rotation in ADW.Launcher (if you can get to ADWSettings, which I could not until I installed separate copy from the Market)
4) Came with a few essentials: Superuser Permissions, Terminal Emulator, Wireless Tether, and Dev Tools. Not sure what the protocol on this is, but I would have liked to also see ROM Manager and Astro File Manager preinstalled, but no matter, a few seconds in the Market gets you right where you want to be.
Thats about all for now. I just want to give those sitting on the fence an idea of what they'd be getting into if they wanted to try new ROMS. As always, run Nandroid backup and if you want to transfer your personal data (SMS, cookies, etc) to your new ROM installation, make sure you use Titanium Backup or something to back up your stuff to your sdcard. There are several very good guides on how to install new ROMs on these forums. They worked great for me. Make sure you follow their instructions.

ADW.Launcher supports homescreen rotation. You have to turn it on.
SU?
Does CyanogenMod have SU and Busybox cooked in? If you ever flash to a ROM without them, do you have to re-root?

if you ever do, restore from nandroid. but any custom rom should have root. would be stupid if it didn't

I did Menu>Settings>Call Settings scroll all the way downZ>Additional Settings>My Phone Number. I put my number in.

i have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled every combination of flash 10.1 (both hulu fixed version and reg) both direct from market and adb, etc...
i am hoping there is a simple solution to avoid wipe, etc....Everything seems great with my rc2, but this flash issue...

Of course I wiped prior to installing RC2....perhaps half of video's that did play do not now...
Main issue I've got with RC2 is that Vignette isn't working right with it. The pictures come out fine, but its when you're viewing the camera trying to take a picture that's the issue - the screen is all cropped up to half the screen size.
Also, there's no option to enable the the camera shutter sound.

These roms are amazing. Thanks for bringing my g tab back from the dead. I just have one issue with this rom. When I plug in my usb mouse, the cursor is invisible. I can click and scroll with the mousewheel and the mouse does move around, I just can't see it. It is strange because it worked fine when I was using Smooth Bean.

I have no problem granting root to estrong file manager and estrong task manager.
So far everything I use works including BT headphone and youtube HD,
I had the same issue with the disappearing mouse cursor. Took me a few minutes of troubleshooting before I thought about the theme...

No problem so far with Titanium Backup for me either. Try un-installing it then re-install. If still no joy try booting into CWM an d wipe cache and dalvik cache and while in advance fix permissions. I have been able to fix some app problems ln the past by doing this. This was used way back in froyo and gingerbread and some of the flashback roms.
Gtalk Audio working?
Can you check if Talk with audio works? It is force closing on the DRH 5.2 JB. Chat with keyboard works fine.
Thank you.

YAY!!!! Can't wait to try it. Thanks.
Could someone test NOVA 3 or similar game. I am not getting the response to the controls like I did with Smooth Bean. Also, as I was testing it I was using BT and it kept cutting in and out. Could be related? I was having the same issue with YouTube and BT. Other than these two things, everything I have tested so far has been great.
Quick update. It was late last night when I tested NOVA 3 and BT. Today I tested the game without BT and the response was back to normal. So the only conclusion I can make is that intensive games and BT do not play well together. Also YouTube HD plays flawlessly without BT. I'm sure it can be fixed but that is above my level.

I dont have nova 3, but six gun works without bluetooth as well as deadtrigger and riptide gp. For youtube, I have way better performance with 4.0.23 and NOT 4.1.23.
Smooth vs Black
Just curious on the differences between this black jellybean and the smooth jelly bean?
The title page looks similar. This one i guess is cyanogenmod and the other based on teamdrh? I'd rather try the more stable one if anyone has a recommendation.
Thanks :good:

I re-read my post and found that I was not very clear. When I was talking about BT and NOVA 3 it was about audio going in and out not about using a BT controller with it. I was using the in app on screen controllers. Same with Youtube the video would stop and start or play in a very "jerky" fashion while the BT audio went in and out.

Just to let you know both Smooth and Black JB are both based off of DRH JB ROM which is yes they all three are Cyanogenmod 10. The Black JB was just me playing with the framework to see what I can do. The only thing is I am trying to find the color scheme on the time in the task bar. The more stable out of the three I would say Smooth currently. Black JB is still a work in progress. Plan on doing some launcher changes once I apply the same theme to it . The current one is taking up to much memory and is the root cause for the issues I am seeing. Smooth has Nova launcher which uses way less the same goes for Halo HD. Suggestion and feed back will be much appreciated since I don't do a whole lot with my device other then web stuff and the occasional angry bird.

Try changing the launcher to Halo HD or even Nova, they are a bit less heavy on memory. YouTube issues should be resolved just sticking with 4.0.23 ver. and not updating it through Google Play.

Today we got 4.1.2 leak, named N7100XXDLJ2. Post your opinion about this leak, what new features you have found, bugs and etc.
My first impressions: Stable, smooth rom, using as daily. Restored all apps, rooted and didnt got any FC.
You can flash cf root, cwm recovery- they are working fine.
New features i have found:
Brightness slider can be disabled
At camera settings you can ” Use the volume key as”
New camera mod “in low light” Improved quality of pictures which are taken in bad light enviroment
Notification bar can be edited
Ink efects with spen on lockscreen
Group cast, google earth apps installed by default
You can disable multiview
Improved swyping with samsung keyboard, something like android 4.2 keyboard swyping
Browser smoother, no more refreshes of bookmarks (still sometimes)
Browser feature- swyping, left or right sideline, up and down makes zoom in/zoom out
Improved stock music player widget while scrolling through the songs list. You wont see "loading" when scrolling up or down quickly like it was on 4.1.1

crashes appears for me randomly, sometimes i dont get any crash for 2 hours, later getting 5 times in 15 min.
My two cents on this rom.
So far i'm loving it. No bugs or crashes, it's fast and battery holds even better then it did with 4.1.1 roms. :good:
New features on camera are great, used to mod just to get that. :good:
The ability to customize the notification screen is great, as it is possible to disable the brightness bar and chose what icons to show on the toggles menu as well as their order. Great feature, another one i used to mod just to get my most used features in there. :good:
All works fine, 3D games (NBA 2k12 & Need for speed Most Wanted and Virtua tennis tested).
Video playing is great, no failure even with 1080p mkv's :good:
Music playing, good but sound is a little crappy even with good headphones, need a lot of work with equalizer. I really don't know why doesn't Samsung provide good sound playing capability and equalizer on a € 700 phone.
Stability, so far it's been great, but it needs a couple more days to be sure. :good:
Overal impression - Very Good
If Samsung makes TW Launcher capable of grid size change I don't think i'll need change a thing on this phone.

If you open the flash application, go to local storage and "clear local storage", set allow local storage to "never" (with 2 gigs of ram you wont need it)
This should solve your browser crashing issues.

also have tried like that, didnt help, something wrong with adobe flash maybe. Also sometimes my chrome on pc freezes of flash. Heard that it can be because of limited flash caches or smt like that :/

On browsermark the browser just closes. It does not force close with error message, it just closes itself at 3/4 of the loading process.
has anyone experienced any issues with videos either captured with your camera, videos stored on your phone/sdcard/ext-sdcard or online? (e.g. youtube, vimeo, amazon-video, online html5 or java based video player, flash player via dolphin web browser). the issue is that video freezes and skips in videos that were recorded with the phones camera, or mp4 media files. But audio continues to play. However online sometimes 5 to 30 seconds into the video it completly freezes, and the audio continues to play. I do not know what is causing this to happen. I have read about similar situations with other Samsung devices running lollipop. i have experienced this with every version of tw lollipop running, stock non rooted and rooted, non modified and modified, deodexed and odexed, cwm, twrp and odin, and on 2 sph-l720s.

here you go : link 1, link 2, link 3.
Not really common at all. I have access to a s4, note 3,s5 and note 4 with none of those problems as far as I can tell. I don't use all of those sites or apps. I do you use YouTube, Netflix, instagram, show box , and tubemate with videos working online and off. Did you take their advice and factory reset? Try clearing the multimedia proxy settings to zeros? You can't really complain about flash working as it hasn't been supported by Android for a long time. That's on dolphin. Try the latest jetpack beta. And what about the stock browser, chrome or Firefox? Non flash videos work better with them than dolphin in my experience. Espn is one example of that. I emailed dolphin about it and they said they're looking into it.

Just sold it a few days ago. Only have a s4 mini as a backup to my Note 4 now. My son's s4 doesn't have any of those problems nor does his sister's s4. Both are original and on lollipop.
