I have tried several rom/kernel combinations on two Nexus 7's and noticed that while doing normal internet surfing or using basic applications that the screen will black out for second then come back on and resume where it was. I noticed some posts on this in the android development sections, yet no one seems to have a fix. Is this a software thing or a hardware thing?
I noticed this when I installed CM10 based PA, so I guess it's a ROM issue.
Its the surfaceflinger issue. They did something recently to it and im guessing dont realize its a bug.. but let me link you the fix it will work on any ROM.
surfaceflinger-fix.zip Flash in recovery and enjoy.
Hey All, no offense on the vast feature set of Cyanogen OS, but, I would love to have stock Google Android, preferably 5.1 on my Yureka.
I tried to find the port on net, but for no luck. Please share if someone have a clue on the Stock Google Android port for Yureka.
I agree!

CM12.1 has been one long nightmare. The Camera App freezes, Blackout and wallpaper change/theme change, One App Redraw over another causes sudden screen blackout, Spontaneous Black Screen, Boot-time that takes well over 2 minutes, Black Screen doesn't let me receive calls most of the time(and its got NOTHING to do with the proximity sensor believe me! The new update is just whacky!!). I've seen around and found out that this is not an isolated case with me. Infact, there are many suffering from the same. I've been enduring for long, in hopes that a new update will come around but at this point I think I want stock android too.
So i finally gave cm 12.1 a chance because it's been rolling for a while now... and i was actually pretty impressed. The one issue i couldn't deal with is the bluetooth audio playback in my car. Basically it was playing too fast, then pausing every 10-20 seconds and then continuing to play too fast again (also at a slightly higher pitch). I was able to temporarily fix the problem by turning bluetooth off and on but it came back. other than this i didn't see many issues and thought it was pretty good, but for no i'm going to go back to stock until this issue is fixed, i did find that it was already reported to the cyanogenmod team and they are already working on a fix so i'm waiting impatiently until it's fixed and i'll probably be moving from stock kitkat as my main rom to cm 12.1. How has everyone elses experience been with cm 12.1 nightlies so far?
What doesn't work. (if i missed something here post so i can update)
- saving 4k video (1080p works tho)
Battery life ?
- used to be terrible but it's almost as good as stock now but with better performance.
hey
i would like to use CM as i was doing that on my Moto G. the questions I have to users of the newest CM version:
- does quickcircle, google text-to-speech, intelligent screen (LG app) features work?
- what is the quality of videos and pictures taken by the phone running CM opposite to android v20i?
thank you.

1. Quickcircle won't work. To make it work again you have to install a special app. Google text-to-speech works ok for me (I haven't test it too much). LG features/apps won't work
2.For me the quality of pics and videos are the worst I have ever seen!!!! (Much better in the stock LG)
My experience with CM12.1 was average. I was waiting for something better. Camera is awful in the Custom roms. Battery life wasn't the best. In terms of performance the cm12.1 is better than the stock lg.
i've only been running cm 12.1 for a few days now so i don't have alot of substantive input, i did find a fix for the bad bluetooth car audio using a macro/tasker app but i think they have fixed it in the nightly released today, i'm downloading it now it says bluetooth stream parameters in the patch notes so i wont bother sharing my fix until i try this nightly to see if they already fixed it. i'll give a better review of whats working and the camera/video quality after i have a chance to play around with it more.
by the way anything running ART instead of DALVIK cache/runtime is going to perform better but it's at the price of xposed modules and such, i'm not expert on it but i know they switched to ART cache/runtime to be more competitive with the iphone. On Kitkat and lower an android device needs better hardware to output the same performance as an iphone with lesser hardware. ART should fix that problem. If you are curious google ART vs DALVIK
*edit* yeah bluetooth is fixed with the newest nightly update... atleast for my car which is a mazda 3. (yay)
Avrage camera and bugs like video not saving after recording is main culpit to not use CM 12.1. Otherwise it is good as clean android can be.

Videos do save. It is a issue with 4K video ONLY. Switch to 1080p video and videos save just fine.

I found that myselfe, tnx. But I believe that issue is fixed already. Maybe Im wrong, but I did see in changelog or other forum. Maybe someone can test it?
I switched to stock kitkat, I love CM, been running CM since it was 10.1, the problem is that it starts really really fast and after a while CM 12.1 becomes laggy it drives me crazy, other than that is the camera quality which doesn't bothers me as the performance issue,
I guess we'll need to wait for LG to release the G3 source file but who know's when that's gonna happend
good news the latest daily added some balancing between power and battery life. I went from losing a huge chunk of my battery during work when my phone is in my pocket to going 9.5 hours at work and coming home with 94% battery. (that is alot of standby but i use my phone at lunch and have bluetooth running for about 50 minutes of driving). Basically it got alot better, i'm not sure what they did but i did notice that there is a balanced setting in battery screen that i didn't notice before. Anyways I think those who were concerned about battery drain my have had their wishes answered over the last few nightlies.

Knock on works but knock code doesn't, which is quite normal considered it's an LG feature.

Partly working. You can turn screen on by clicking anywhere, and turn it off by knocking at notification bar.
Phone encryption not working?
I've just flashed the 20150603 CM12.1 and I cannot seem to get the phone encrypted. On the reboot to start the encryption, the phone gets stuck in the CM boot animation and the encryption process never starts. Any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks in advance.
I'm on 06/05 nigthly. When I plug the phone in my computer, it's not being recognized. If I change from MTP to PTP, then it works.
I've tried going to Device Manager, and could see that my phone is being recognized as a Nexus device. I tried installing latest drivers from Google's website, but I got a message saying that I'm already on the latest version. So that didn't do anything. I've tried uninstalling that "nexus" driver and rebooting my PC, but it somehow came back when I plugged my phone in. Trying to update gave me the same message.
If I run "adb devices", I can see that there's no devices (it's enabled in developer settings). If I enable ADB over WiFi and try to connect -- it works, and I can do whatever I want. But only over WiFi and not via USB.
Tried different cable and different port as well.
I really still enjoy using this table and LineageOS 14.1 breathed new life into it from the stock Andriod ROM of KitKat. If not does anyone suggest anything other than LineageOS to run on my tablet that would perform any better than LineageOS.
Thanks,
Lime
Hmm nobody has any thoughts?
Resurrection Remix is a very good and stable ROM. But you leave curious...
What is lacking in Lineage that leaves you wanting?

It looks like they may not be going forward with any new releases of lineageos for the SM-T520.
LOS14 Issues
I have 3 issues with LOS14 on my SM-T520 wifi which I didn't have with a former CM Rom:
- I like to hold my Tab in different orientations and android rotates the screen likewhise. But the unlock-screen is not rotated and allways shows same orientation no matter how i hold the tab.
- I play some games on my tab with ad videos. In some games those videos are played in full volume for a fraction of a second even though my volume is low or off. This makes an irritating noise whenever one of the video starts.
- In some games android seems to overload the cpu regularly for some milliseconds and the game hangs (graphic and sound) but only when the tab had been running for a longer time. When I then restart the tab everything works fine.
I had a CM on my tab before and I didn`t have any of these issues there. But CM is no longer supported or updated so I switched to LOS14. Appart from these issues LOS14 runs very good on the SM-T520. But like limeman35 said there seem no progress in developement. At least there are nightly builds from time to time with service releases from android.
I am a newbie when it comes to rooting. I've never tried it but I have a Samsung t525 an I check all the time for system updates for this tablet but there never have one. I've even called into Samson an they told me you cant download any updates at all. That is hard for me to ac Sept. There has to be something I can to to utilise my tablet. Will you please explain how to root my tablet? Ty Pawneehappygamer
I've been looking around to solve this issue, but haven't have much luck. It looks like it's an issue with a good number of ROMs on this phone, but my issue is that after some time, the touchscreen in some games and apps stops working normally.
Phone is running Lineage 16, rooted w/ magisk
To have it work, I need to hold one finger on the screen and the other finger will register properly.
The issue can temporarily be fixed by rebooting the phone.
I notice the issue occurring when an app/game accesses the camera. At that moment, issue occurs.
I came across this in my searches: https://review.lineageos.org/c/Linea...ative/+/198809
Not sure exactly how to work with that, but I figured I would provide as much info as I can before asking for help. Thanks ahead for the help
