[Q] CM10.2 Problem

Hi all I am new to the xda forums (posting anyways) and I appreciate everyone who contributes on this site you guys are amazing. Anyways I am on a Motorola Droid RAZR M, rooted first with motochopper, unlocked boot loader with motopocalypse, and flashed the latest nightly from Cyanogenmod. I was ecstatic when it worked because tinkering with my old Droid 2 Global didnt go so well and I didn't want to mess up my phone, so I was elated that it worked. A couple days ago CM Updater popped up on my phone and it was CM10.2-20130815. When I saw the 10.2 I couldn't resist and I updated it. Everything was fine until the next day when I updated to CM10.2-20130816. Videos no longer played on my phone. The stock video player wasn't working. I searched and searched for a fix but I couldn't find one so I flashed back to CM10.1-20130813. Everything works now as it should but I keep researching it. Recently I found that the problem started in the first release of CM.10.2 for the xt907. I want Android 4.3 really badly but I can't live without the stock video player. MXPlayer is great but Vine, YouTube, Snapchat, etc. wouldn't work without the stock video player. Is there a fix for this or does anyone know if the newest nightly fixed this problem? Thank you in advance.

It will get better, nightlies are experimental and there are bugs and such

Thanks! Im thinking about trying Skrilax's CM10.2 ROMs. There are a lot more nightlies so maybe there will be less bugs but I dont know there could be even more. Do you have any experience with any of his ROMs? Ive heard good and bad about them.

It's still cm10.2 just unofficial, I've made a few nightlies myself I'm running the latest nightly now pretty smooth

For the RAZR M? Was it hard to do?

Yes and no, but you have to be on Linux though and there are guides out there

I have used Skrilax's builds and have found them to be well built. Keep in mind if bugs exist in CM 10.2 it probably will be so across the board regardless of the dev.

I dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 8 on both of my computers so maybe ill try it. It sounds kind of fun. And yeah I am coming to terms with the fact that i probably wont get 4.3 until a fix is made but its not a big deal. Having 4.2.2 is way better than being stuck on 4.1.2 with Motorola's skin on it. I knew the RAZR M had potential but I couldnt get it to perform well on Motorola's stock 4.1.2 ROM, but with CyanogenMod it runs like a dream. Battery life is better too!

is data working on the unofficial or skrillax's build?

On the CM 4.2-20130824 Nightly the camera issue if fixed and has been since at least a couple nightlies back, so that isnt an issue anymore. I cant say about skrilax's or the unofficial but the official nightlies have all data working and LTE is especially fast, but i have not had any problems with any type of connection on LTE, 4g, 3g, HSPA+, & CDMA.

Just coming back to the s4 after being gone about a month

Hello all. As I wrote in my title, I'm just coming back to the s4 after being gone for about a month. I've flashed a few roms and I've noticed that data stops working on almost all the ones I've tried. I tried the Google edition and flashed a different kernel to get WiFi working--when I did WiFi worked but data was broken. Then I tried tri force, data did not work. Finally I tried the one with the weird name (sorry--I know that doesn't help much but I know viper appears in quite a few places in the thread). I am currently on liquid smooth (cm based 10.1) and thankfully it's flawless. I love it but I like variety and I wish I could find a debloated TW rom to play around with. Why it's the data borked on so many of them? I'm not exactly a noob--been an android user for years and I've flashed many a roms. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, unless there's something different or weird with the s4. Can anyone kindly shed some light on my predicament? I'm now downloading negalite. Gonna see if that one has functioning data. It almost seems as tho you have to flash a custom kernel all the time now to get data. Is this right? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: rom name I couldn't remember is visionX (by the axman)

Been on Triforce since July with KTkernal and haven't had any issues at all. Negalite is a good one, I like it a lot. If you stick with it think about setting up svn as there's lots of updates.

R u on MF9?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2

I have no idea why as I've tried everything I can think of and read but aosp runs better on my S4 than tw, as crazy as that sounds its been true for me. I love Aosp so I'm good. I'm on mf9 via otas and tried all recoveries made and always end up with some type of system or phone fc or the "detected an app".. .blah blah warning which annoys the crap outa me so I just stay on aosp as there are a ton of great ones for us and they work wonderfully -the once in a while call bug which I do not come across that much really ams when I do I made a shortcut for fast reboot via rom toolbox and just hit it when it happens and its good.

Well I installed negalite and so far it's perfect. Everything seems to be working & it has a great amount of tweaking enabled. Thanks guys. Now I have a solid aosp rom and a solid TW rom. I'm one happy camper.

Just FYI.....If you flash a TW MF9 rom with the stock kernel and WiFi is broken after boot (can and has happened with Negalite, TriForce, etc) there is a modified stock kernel that can be flashed to fix if needed.

I must be lucky, because I have had no such issues with any rom (AOSP or TW). If I flash the stock rooted MF9 rom followed by the stock MF9 kernel, I have wifi and data. Same goes for any other TW rom as well as every AOSP rom I've tried.

Pure stock debloated rooted at&t s4 rom?

Does anyone know of such a ROM that I can have root, download, deodex, and debloat (but no mods) for the SGH-I337? I'd like to run a pure stock rooted ROM without bloat. I do not want the modded (black) apps with the messaging and etc. Just the full on debloated stock experience with root privileges. No, I do not want a competition with whatever ROM is best as I do not intend to start an argument about it. So, in that case, does anyone have suggestions or the link to another XDA thread? Also, please make sure that it's latest stock for AT&T. Thanks everyone!

Ya could try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364635 however how you flash it will depend on what firmware your running now. If your mdf then refer to the safestrap threads for proper flsshing procedures and if yur mdl then follow loki directions. Hope this helps

I've been using MDOB for a month or so and it is great. Great battery life, smooth, debloated stock, excellent support -- a great ROM. -- Bud

Let me tell ya I have owned hd2, gs2, gs3, gs4, nexus s , nexus 4,atrix hd,transformer 300tf, galaxy tab 2 7.0 galaxy tab 2 10.1, nexus 7, note 2 ,note 10.1, and note 8.0.
I always go for stock based ROMs for stability. For I instal tons of apps that I get issues one after another on custom. I try ROMs after another update after another. This was like a routine which could be enjoyable but annoying sometimes for ur times limited.
With I337, I tried one ROM and I felt no need or urge to flash or even try another. I just could not find flaws or problem with this one.
Which ROM is this?
MDOB!
Bloat free based on stock and has all features I need. Give it a try. Make sure u follow devs guide on installation though for best possible experience!

Thank you so much BTW, should've thanked you sooner. Flashed MDOB and have been running it for about four days now. Very stable, has those white stock apps, and is absolutely amazing while also running stock kernel. Thanks so much!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I am so glad it has been working great for ya. I really wish other android devices that I use also had ROMs like MDOB.
Those add-ons listed on devs post for MDOB also work great as well for they are usually stock/hidden features. For example, torch light is from hidden stock menu and addon will unlock and enable it for you. Addon like in call recording is not an external third party app but it is like unlocking call recording menu within the stock dial/call pad which comes in very handy and convenient. If you have questions then the dev will try to help you promptly. I had minor issues but it was because I did not know how to use the features on ROM correctly. Of coarse the dev tried to help me find solutions along the way. He' s just a great guy and I feel lucky to have him here on gs4 community.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356276

Was about to post same question!
Hi there,
Thanks for this thread and the answers. I was searching for exactly this topic.
I would like to try the MDOB ROM, as it sounds like what I am looking for.
The current MDOB ROM is based on the *MF3 firmware. Is this an issue? I am reading about the AT&T bootloader lock and loki fix that was added in to MF3, plus other custom ROMs that list either a broken sound or broken Wi-Fi as a known issue with MF3.
Are these issues fixed in this ROM (and how?) I don't want to loose TWRP and/or WiFi.
Thanks for any clarification,
Gemini420

MDOB is based on the lastest stock MF3 however it would not give u problems that you would face from updating to notorious MF3 stock.
If I am not mistaken you are supposed to have UCUAMDL stock rooted with custom recovery twrp (preferably i337 version listed on the MDOB page) prior to flashing MDOB.
Check out installation or flashing instruction on the MDOB for more info. The dev points to several things you should watch out for. I just followed the guide and my phone has been running pefectly ever since. Well I wish u Good luck.
Edit: Though I never had any issues with custom recovery and wifi, you might wanna ask there and see if such issues exist on MDOB.

[INDEX][Everything you need to know][All In One Guide]

Welcome to the note 3 forums. We welcome you as long as you do your job and search before making 1,000,000 new threads.
So,You just got your shiny new note 3 and dont know where to begin?
Well that's ok because, this is the all in one thread.
Lets begin​
How do I Root?
That is the common question around here. Im going to simplify this.. Here you go
For 4.3
1.The best and safest way is this method by @evilpotatoman. It does require a little work but in return you do get root Here is the link for That,
2.Another method that is faster, but does not offer busybox with install, nor did it originate from XDA-forums is Here,
For 4.4 Or KitKat
You have to Go to My thread located
Here,
This does root KitKat and provides a custom ROM.
How Do I Install Custom Rom's
First What you should know is that our phone has a locked bootloader. This means that we can not boot kernels. But we still can flash custom rom's Thanks to @Hashcode
To install custom rom's on 4.3, Head over Here,
Another method That i originally created, but does not work as good as safestrap, could be found Here
If you are on KitKat, Then you could either install my KitKat rom or wait for safestrap to be updated.
What Do I Do If I Bricked My Phone? Or if it wont boot?
Well There are 2 methods to get you back to stock and running again.
To Restore back to Jellybean (4.3) Follow this Thread Here
To Restore back to KitKat (4.4.2) Follow this Thread Here
Why are Rom's Based off different Bases & Whats the difference?
A little basic intro
MJ5,MI9 & MI1 Are all 4.3 AT&T Bases
Ml2 Is an international 4.3 Base
MlG is a leaked AT&T 4.4.2 Base
Mj5 Is the latest 4.3 AT&T Base
Ml2 Is the latest international Base
The difference depends on what you need. Right now There are pro's and con's to all bases
Mj5
-Fast Data speeds
-Better indoor Signal
-No Bluetooth internet tethering
Ml2
-NO group messaging
-lower signal in areas
-slower data
-Does have Bluetooth internet tethering
Leaked Kitkat base (MIG)
-Extremely fast
-Newer modem with better signal & speeds
-Safestrap is not yet updated to work with kitkat (But you could still install my 4.4 ROM)
Why is my GPS Crappy and How do i fix it?
This issue is well known with our phone. The main reason is bad software coding.
To fix this issue Flash this fix made by me, in safestrap or manually push the files using root explorer.
4.3-Click Here
4.4-(Coming Soon)
What is "SafeStrap & Why do i have to use it?
Safestrap is our main method of flashing Rom's and could be found Here,
Always WIPE before flashing a new ROM or expect to receive errors. DON'T BE LAZY
Issues with safestrap
-Sometimes the storage is messed up and shows that you are using all your memory, when you really are not.If you use a different app to check, then you should see your real memory usage.
Where are all the kernels located?
Like i stated earlier, We don't have kernels yet, because of our locked bootloader
Where are all the Roms compatible with my phone?
All compatible and ready to install rom's could be found Here
There is currently NO AOSP,CM Based Rom's, So don't ask
What is KNOX and how does it effect me?
KNOX is basically made to **** us. But Samsung calls it security.
KNOX is removed from most custom Rom's. Knox does prevent root apps from working properly and should be removed asap.
How do I transfer My bookmarks from ROM to ROM?
Follow the guide i created Here
Im still working on a list of roms,and cool mods that are compatible with our phone. they will be located in the second post.Mods please sticky this thread​

For me, to post mods and roms compatible with our phone

one more

Great information.
Thank you very much.
I have tried your KitKat 4.4.2. Glad to see it is rooted!
Now, it is easy to switch between MJ5 4.3 and MLG 4.4.2 through SafeStrap and Odin.

Wow very nice! Hopefully this will prove helpful.

Awesome work. Me personally Im waiting for SS to be updated but definitely keeping an eye out.
Im curious on one thing. When you discuss Knox and to 'remove it', would freezing this via TB server the same purpose? Also since youve had a go with 4.4, does Samsungs iteration of 4.4 still have the GPS issues or did they fix it? Just curious
Thanks!

Wanting to down grade back to JB rom from KITKAT v2
I Used to be on JB rom 4.3 And I really liked it. But I wanted to upgrade to to KitKat v2 because alot of people said they liked it. After I upgraded to KITKAT 4.4.2 I really did not enjoy it as much JB 2.6. I used to get 35000 score from Antutu Benchmark but now on V2 I get about 30000 score. And I thought the JB 2.6 was setup nicer. I dunno, but what I do know is that I would like to go back to JB 2.6 because I think it was a nicer piece of work. Anyone know where I can find the tutorial to downgrade back to JB 2.6? I thought I seen it before but I cant seem to find it. Thank you for your time.

advice needed: downgrade from CM11 to 4.1.2

Hi,
i had CM 11 for a while but recently the bugs get worse then less. In the moment i cant make any call for example.
I tried Sammys 4.3, but the experience was very bad too. Pretty buggy, some apps wont work...and slow like hell.
So im thinking of going back to the latest 4.1.2 sammy rom.
I lost a bit the overview about efs and all this stuff.
Is there any problem to expect doing this? What was the latest or best version of 4.1.2?
Thanks

Your EFS folder version can normally be determined by what modem you have installed.
If you have flashed stock 4.3 it would more than likely be EFS v2
I think you should be ok to just flash a stock rom in odin but just let someone confirm this or just have a quick search. If you want to make sure it shows as official in download mode, then use triangle away to sort that
