Because I can't post in the proper place, maybe the forum admin could transfer
this post to the proper place(development).
On version b-37(5/26) of the AKOP build for vision I have a couple of comments.
I have exercised this build for the last few days and it works very well, I only have found a couple of possible bugs.
The mic in the headset(earbuds) does not seem to work for phone calls. The little switch on the headset does seems to work and the playback works fine. The mic in the phone works fine if you unplug the headset. There might be another program switching the mic off, but I haven't found any. It is like the mic is in mute and the mute switch does nothing on the headset mic.
The WiFi is off when the phone boots up, This might be a feature rather than a bug. Unless there is a lot of complaints I don't think it needs to be changed. The Internet phone from T-mobile does not work(known).
Another problem and I don't know if it is a program problem of a version problem.
I have tried many web browsers and on some sites they are very slow for the page to loads(like a minute or so). It might have something to do with Flash,
although most sites are OK. You Tube does work OK. Another quirk is the sites will come on with low resolution and then it appears as though the site has finished loading and the font is fine. It appears as though some sort of page loading problem. This happens with all the browsers I have tried.
A couple of times I have had the font under the Icons scramble, if the page gets rewritten then the font is OK.
All in all this is a very good version with very few bugs, great job !!!

New build is up. Some of your bugs should be fixed already (e.g. with microphone).
AKOP build 38
The mic problem is fixed in b38(thanks), only one other problem that is new
to b38 is that the Home key and the Search key on the bottom of the phone
no longer function.
I found that the included browser has problems when loading then freezing on a
white screen. Other browsers seem to work, so deleted same.
I might add that in b37 and b38 the track pad finally works like it is supposed to.
In earlier versions and 2.3.4 it never worked properly. Also, the lights on the
keyboard and the 4 buttons on the bottom of the phone now stay lighted and
don't go off and on. Thanks for the improvements.

Hello,
I also use the ROM and find it great. But I have two problems with it.
I can't send MMS. I have delete and recreated the MMS-APN but without any change.
My second problem is the clock when I use the apex launcher. When the phone ist unused for a while the clock goes wrong. On the widgets it shows 10:20, on the screenlock it shows 9:45 an the realtime ist 11:34 or so.
I hope someone has an answer.
thx
Home Key fixed
Found the problem I was having with the Home key being non-functional.
Seems like 2 programs I found write data where it is not supposed to be,
they are Android Assistant and Super Task Killer. If you run either one of these
programs the home key becomes non-functional.
The standard included browser has a problem with most of the time not
starting and giving only a white screen. I have tried 6 other browsers and all
work fine. Deleted same.
This fixed the 2 major problems with Build 38. There is a minor problem with the
Sim Card recognition, gives a error message to restart which is in error. The
main screen comes up long before the initial boot process has finished. I think
init.d is running after the main screen comes up. Works fine if you just let it
complete its work.
Build 38 is very stable and has very few problems. Great work !!

Number three isn't related to YouTube specifically, it happens any time you're supposed to receive the prompt to select an app to complete a given action, if you're docked or locked in landscape orientation, and haven't rotated the screen since the last reboot. The workaround is to enable screen rotation, then turn the device to portrait orientation until the screen rotates. (You can do this while the screen is half-dimmed). The prompt will immediately start working properly again, until the next reboot.
One problem not on your list is that the weather widget still randomly adds a half-line of blank space before the location, causing the temperature line to be cut off at the bottom. Also, the new "Last update" line places AM/PM after the date / before the time, rather than after the time where a native English-language speaker would place it.
Additional bug (possibly) - microphone
When chatting on Google Video Chat, and having headphones plugged in, the person on the other end can barely hear me. Take the headphones out and its much better.
Tried using the app called Voice Record which has sound level needle and tested the same situation with the same outcome. Mic is good without headphones plugged in, but once they are, the mic goes to like 2-5% input level.
Tried same on a friends TF with same outcome. Not sure if this is an OS issue or hardware/driver thing

I have the exact same issue (prime 1.7), and I'm pretty sure it wasn't here before on prime 1.6.
I have one issue with 3.2:
When I am trying to open file which could be opened with couple of programs screen become darker, but no table with programs to choose.
The same with all ROM's (Prime, Rewolver, original). When downgrading to 3.1 all works well.
Do anybody experiencing the same issue? Mine is B50

Yes, I have this problem too, maybe I installed a file manager app and the app clash with the build-in file explorer.
When I click the file name of a avi file, the screen becomes darker without pop up a app selecting windows. It seems that the system hangs when a file tries to link with a corresponding app.
Will this happens with the use of the build-in file explorer only?
On my mail, if i hit on a link on a message..screen goes dark also, the post above said rotate screen, now it works when rotated...bug!!! Also, on stock browser doing a entering of info on screen, like a Google search, damn cursor gets removed of edit box. Another bug...I found...decaf coffee taste crappy...hopefully the upgrade the taste...
rotating screen really helps.
Thanks.
This bug doesn't efect any software installed. I have made fresh install with no any software Stock ROM with Nwflash. Bug comes after second reboot. no mater which ROM you are using.
With elder ROM's based on 3.1 no problem.
Anyway rotating screen helps.

Touch screen most of the time, unresponsive (takes alot of tapping for a respond), usually happens at the lower part of the screen,
Is it just me?
Was the 3.2 wifi issue solved with latest update patch, wifi drops out unless you designate static ip?
No problems with touch screen and WiFi for me.
I brought my transformer to Asus service center in my country, to complain about the white spots in the middle of the screen, they have agreed to replace my screen, is that right?
I thought they would replace the whole unit, hopefully the new screen will fix the responds issue

Hey thanks for this tip. The dark screen-pick app thing sucks and was making me insane. I definitely have this same bug on stock 3.2 with root. Other than that, I haven't had any major bugs except maybe standby battery life not being as good as before 3.2.
Hello
I have been having some problems with the main camera on the A500. It has different tints to it. Sometimes the picture seems to be divided in 4 and all 4 squares have a different hue to them. Restoring to factory settings seem to take care of it for a while. Initially I thought it was "skype" that messed it up, but it is not.
I just restarted the tablet and the camera is giving me a yellow tint, with a clear horizontal stripe about 3/4 inch wide through the middle.
The tab has stock 3.2 on it.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced similar problems and if there was a solution to the problem.
Thank you
Well, I would think the problem seems to be some app/apps you have installed. Based on when you do a factory reset, it goes away.
I would just do another factory reset. Then verify it went away. Run it for a couple of days WITHOUT installing any apps. This will probably rule out a hardware issue.
Then install apps, 1 at a time. Use the camera, and look for issues.
Thanx. I will give that a try.
I traced it back to Swift Key X keyboard for tablets. How is that even possible?
Also yahoo messenger is another one that ruins the camera. As soon as I install any of those apps and reboot, the camera is back to normal.
Does anyone out there use either of those apps?

So, everything is ok?
Rule #1,
Stay away from apps meant for phones.
Yes, they "may" have tested it it on "1" tablet, then gave it a clean bill of health. Maybe.

I thought it would be ok. But after restarting a few times, the camera colors are off. I'm going to root and install a custom 3.2 to make sure it is not the hardware.
Spasiba for all your help )
any news about this problems.
it seems that my iconia has the same problem- i never noticed it because i dont use the rear camera.
i sold it it today and the guy who bought has described something like what you folks are talking about
the strange thing is that i had done a clean boot before i sold it, and the buyer hasnt installed anything on it yet.
im waiting to hear back from him after he tries another clean boot.
anyone else have any ideas ?
I'm having the same problem. I don't use it much, but the camera was ok before. When I tried using it this weekend, it showed colored translucent squares on the sides. It is not a config problem, as there are no effects turned on. The front camera works 100%. I will post a sample when I get home.
If I change the "whites" config to Incandescent, it kind of solves the problem. Sometimes, the squares appear, but not for most the time.
I believe this is not a harware issue, unless that whites configuration is made with hardware (highly doubt it). I don't have Swift key, or Yahoo messenger, or any other apps that use the camera (other than Skype, but it was already installed when the camera worked).
Did anybody find a fix to this? It seems it is only a problem on stock 3.2.
Edit: not an exclusive 3.2 stock issue, it appears that custom roms have this problem as well.
I have the same issue after ICS ota upgrade...
Any ideas?
I haven't had the issue since the ICS upgrade. Only tested once or twice, but it is working properly.
What I did to partially fix it was changing the White Balance to "Incandescent".
hello fellow xda-ers
I recently updated to the latest and stable CM10.1 (after using M2,M3, RC3 and RC5) and noticed that my home button stops working after a while. I'm not sure when it started but I think it was with the RC.
I did a search but it didn't yield anything particularly relevant. Is that a known problem?
I just reinstalled everything after resetting all data and it still happening.
thanks in advance for your input,
n
edit: before someone mentions it, I read this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340170 where the user indicates that re-flashing everything and restoring his apps using TB fixed the problem. That's exactly what I did but the problem persists unfortunately.
edit2: the problem seems to be limited to when the app drawer is opened. Home works fine with apps
same thing is happening to me. i was running cm since i bought the phone in February. Decided to flask Franco and now I'm getting this weird touch screen problems. The bottom row where the home button is located will become unresponsive. I decided to go into developer settings and enable "show touches". My phone is sometimes touches without my physical input.
Not sure if kernel related or if my touchscreen coincidentally has given out. I'm gonna try flashing stock kernel and see if that fixes things

I have the same problem on
Franco M3 and CM10.1 stable, just I'm not sure if it started when I flashed CM stable or Franco M3. Home button doesn't work with app draw open and also it doesn't swap from one homescreen to the default.
However if I got to settings>Launcher>Homescreen>Default screen and change it to another screen then back again the home button works properly but after a few days it stops again.
edit: its as if it just forgets what screen is supposed to be default
I have a Canadian Note 3 (SM-N900W8), it's KNOX 0x0 rooted and I have CM11 M12 installed. I have been using only the M builds since I got this phone, I didn't even set up Touchwiz when I got it, I rooted and installed Cyanogenmod out of the box.
Now, with the new CM12 builds coming out, what happened to CM11, are they going to fix the remaining issues? Or did they just bail on legacy KitKat users because I'm having TONS of problems and I don't want lollipop, it runs like absolute crap for the nightlies right now and CM11 M12 isn't much better. Bluetooth takes a couple of attempts to connect, when it does my phone runs super slow to the point it force restarts. For instance, if I'm driving around, listening to music on the car stereo, pull over some where, find a new album on Google Music, start playing that, it's all good, do this a few times, every time I use my phone it gets slower and slower until it force restarts and then bluetooth has trouble connecting again. I've tried this on a few other vehicles of different brands and aftermarket stereos and it's the same result.
Audio is all funky when bluetooth is on too, it sounds like robots for the system sounds and if bluetooth drops while it's connected the music starts playing from the phone and sounds all roboty. I always do clean flashes too and the latest Paranoid Android GAPPS every time I reflash, the ROM is fine out of the box, works flawless for the first few days but after awhile, it becomes so bad I have to backup, wipe, reflash, and start over for another few weeks.
Another issue is somewhere between M8 and M12 one of the builds corrupted my SD card, I tossed in a second new card, it was corrupted again, FutureShop won't give me another one and said my phone is breaking them so I'm SD-less right now.
There are also quite a few apps that force close, but always at random, it's never when doing the same thing over and over, for instance, I can be scrolling through G+ and it tells me settings has stopped working, wasn't even using settings, didn't even have it open, haven't clicked it since booting my phone, just randomly stops working for no reason, this also happens all the time with the Camera, it says it just stops working when I haven't even used it and then if I try to use it, it says the camera is disconnected and won't work until I reboot.
I turn my phone off every night while it's charging and turn it back on every morning so every morning it gets a fresh restart, and I have to restart my phone probably 5ish times a day, if I'm using bluetooth more then normal then there's quite a few more unintentional reboots in there as well.
The last issue, which is a known issue is NFC not working, is there a fix for this yet? I kinda miss this feature and with how flawed CM11 is getting I don't know where to turn since they always seemed to be the most stable out of everything I've tried.
Any before anyone says Temasek's CM builds, I tried it, the final for CM11, it was worse then M12, it's exactly the same as M12, but every issue happens more frequently. Also, the pull down menu (when pulling down from the top right to show toggles), the bottoms of the last row was cut off so it didn't look very appealing either, it also used WAY more battery life, I usually get a full day out of one charge, so around 18 to 20ish hours on one charge, with temaseks cm11 I had to charge my phone half way through the day, sometimes my phone would just die on me without me knowing, the battery usage was always Android System.
A new problem that just happened lastnight was Google Keyboard was deleted and only the voice search would work, but "voice search can't be reached" so I couldn't search for another keyboard app from the playstore. I also used the stock GAPPS so AOSP keyboard is replaced with Google Keyboard, I had to reflash again this morning because I couldn't figure out the keyboard thing, there wasn't even a keyboard under languages in settings so I had no options to pick which keyboard to use. When I reflashes this morning I used the Modular GAPPS to it keeps the AOSP Keyboard just in case this happens again but I'm getting really tired of only having a reliable phone for a few weeks.
So, are there any fixes for these issues?
Bluetooth taking multiple attempts to connect
Bluetooth forcing random reboots
Bluetooth making audio from device all funky and sounds like a robot
Corrupting SD cards
Random system apps stopping without me even using or opening them
Google Keyboard vanishing
Are there any stable ROMs I could try for the HLTE? Maybe one that has working NFC? I'm almost thinking of going back to stock *throws up in mouth* but I don't know what else to do with how many bugs there are and Lollipop is only getting worse with the issues.
I'm also trying to avoid Lollipop because everything is white, Note 3 is an AMOLED display, each pixel illuminates on it's own so white screens use WAY more battery life then black ones which was a feature of Temasek's CM11 that I liked, had the option in settings to make everything black like the good old days.
So guys? Really out on my luck here, not sure what the next step is, any fixes for these problems? Any other ROM's I could try? Would flashing a new recovery and reflashing CM11 M12 fix some of these issues? I'm using Xiaoli CWM v6.0.4.7(20140125). Would the fact that KNOX isn't tripped have something to do with this? I really don't understand why there aren't more posts for these issues which leads me to believe I'm one of the only ones experiencing them.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
EDIT:
I forgot to mention that when recording audio or video, it's as if the mic gain is set on full so even the slightest sound is pure distortion, normal talking volume and it clips, I found an app that lets me choose between the mics and when I pic the external mic, it's all muffles as if something is covering it but my phone wasn't in a case while I was testing so I'm not sure what the deal is there but I can't record any decent audio with this and when I record in 4K using Cinema FV-5, all the videos turn out looking like Anaglyph 3D but all pink and green, it's really weird and I don't understand why, but 1080p at 60fps works fine.
I am on CM12 and luckily have had no issues at all. I came from KK 4.4.4 and still have the NB7 BL and modem. I tried one of the guys slim ROMs alpha builds but had issues (probably operator error) but I've tried Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi , LTE etc and everything is good. Not sure what to tell you. I do however always wipe internally and d/l all my apps again through WiFi. A bit cumbersome I know but it won't give me any residual data.

I love the new update but it has made my experience with smule a living hell. It was working perfectly last night before the update then right after that's when I noticed issues with the app. Whenever I record the audio is skipping and stuttering and I am unable to record any songs. All of the other apps I have used have worked fine it's just this one app in particular that I am having an issue with. I tried uninstalling then reinstalling and the problem still persisted. I use this app often and i really hope I can fix it soon. I also tried clearing cache and data and that didn't work either. If anyone could help me i would really appreciate it thank you
You Aren't The Only One
I'm experiencing the same thing you are with Smule. Maybe it's compatibility changes after the update to Nougat. Smule needs to fix it asap
However, I feel it might take a awhile. It took them so long to get phones on sync with audio and now they have to start over. S8 Samsung users in the future will not be pleased if this is still a problem. Maybe we could find something in our settings that would help besides the application itself.
Here is some quick fix i found myself incidentally..
while recording if you realize the mic is not working, immidiately lock the screen then unlock it, the mic will be working after 2-3 second, sometime it takes to do another lock and unlock, then you can restart the song and mic will be working properly... this will continue for several song until th problem recur, then lock and unlock your phone again. for now this fix works for me
