Hotspot issues are sadly a major issue while the NFC can be fixed using a file called NFC Fix.zip in the paranoid android forum. And to make the rom seem faster try editing the dev options and make windows transition 0.5x
thanks, ill give it a try, been trying all these but havnt really made a difference. thanks for the advice!
Bump?

Searched the forum, didn't really find anything relevant so here goes.
Using CM9 right now to experience the ICS goodness (I know..experimental) but it happened with CM7 too which is what I would call a very stable ROM. Can't tell you if it happened with stock touchwiz because I removed that as soon as I got my phone...
At random times when I'm using the phone, it completely freezes and the only way to fix it is to hold the power button down to shut down/turn back on. I'm not doing anything particular so theres no pattern like launching angry birds, 2 minutes later the phone freezes. launch angry birds, freezes..etc.
What I thought could be causing it..
1) Something faulty in the phone.
2) A buggy app in the background that I don't know is running.
3) Losing internet connectivity/service causing an error of some sort..as bizarre as that sounds.
Can anyone help me with this?
Any suggestions/opinions anyone might have would be much appreciated.

Possible but the least likely .
2) A buggy app in the background that I don't know is running.
Again possible .
3) Losing internet connectivity/service causing an error of some sort..as bizarre as that sounds.
Not heard of that one
Can anyone help me with this?

Total wipe of the phone and sd card and put a stock rom on is the only way to eliminate bad rom bad apps .
99% of the current problems are all from beta test rom ICS in some shape or form and errors are random and varied .

I know theres lots of problems with CM9 but yeah as I said it was still an issue with CM7. Mostly have the same apps that was on my old HTC desire that was also running CM7 which made me think it was a problem with the phone. I'll try the stock rom idea and see if it helps...kills me to use touchwiz though! I find it ghastly!

You CAN install other launchers so you don't have to look at the TouchWiz launcher, you know. I'm on a stock ROM, haven't looked at the TouchWiz launcher in months.
I know that but I'd rather have the latest and greatest which CM9 seems to be at the moment. All the things that don't work don't really affect me. Also I've been using the stock touchwiz rom and still am having the freezing problem so I'm guessing its a dodgy app...gonna be a long process to determine which one it is though.

Its certainly not what i would put on my phone but it is users choice .
I find a clue in the high number of help or bug posts regarding certain roms is a certain indicator for me to steer clear of. ICS has multiple error posts of a varied nature what works for one phone does not work on another .

I was just wondering what different glitch kernels people were using and what things it is supposedly supposed to fix.
My build 6 was working great and i didn't even need a glitch kernel, i had no problems whatsoever, but i decided to update to 6.5. Now my calendar doesn't work and some other things just don't run as smoothly. I'm not sure why i decided to update...
Anyway will any glitch kernels fix this and if so what are people running. What things are the new kernels supposed to fix
Any links would be appreciated
Thanks
EDIT: Now in my settings under accounts and sync it has an exclamation point by "sync com.android.calendar" and at the bottom it says "syn is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly"

Flash this gapps fixer for your calendar problem. Glitch kernel could be helpful as far as "smoothness" is concerned, you can read about the kernel features on the thread. One nice thing is not having to deal with the call volume issue either.

Hi everyone, sorry my english is bad, i have a question for you.
All roms i had tried seems to be rock solid, after a week the whole roms that i flash begins to give me some problems, after 2 weeks often screen remain black after a lost call.
this without any settings change..
someone else have this problem?
vivalatopa
Please be specific...
Which roms have you tried and with which kernels?
Hey
I think the "problems" you got are not problems
from the rom itself.
It's our device that is not the best for performance etc.
Some roms are way too much for it
and the others can be good in the start but when
you install lot apps or tweaks or even personalize it to your
asthetic preferences the phone have way too much work to do
in the background.
Maybe you should think about upgrading your hardware

thank you, i think that it's possible.
anyway i'll try the only slightly stable, minicm6.
mini cm will be good and most stable for me
Now i'm trying minicm6 with a packet that can be flashed by cwm called "Sensor_Fix.zip"
, this file i found searching for the "black screen after call" problem. I'm thinking the second problem is the
small ram quickly fillable so i'm testing a memory tool.
I'm pleasantly surprised because the phone reset only one time in 4 days of the new rom flash
thank you
if someone need to solve the black screen ask me the file, it seems to work.

no, i think thats not the problem, simply after call the screen stay off, i must reboot because i can't use it.
seem's to be stable after the flashing of a zip file that is done to fix this problem.
Hangouts with sms is great along with the other updated apps, but damn I love the Google Experience launcher. Way less options than nova or apex, but the always-on hotword detection on homescreens is great. Just wondering if anyone else here is trying them out?

i think i installed 90% of them, so far so good. i cant wait for our phone to have it.
Apparently CM will continue to focus on 4.3 builds, so I don't expect a CM11 anytime soon. Knowing our luck with this device, we'll probably have issues with kit kat builds anyway. Still, the launcher and hangouts are pretty badass. It's just a shame there's no official support for icon packs with stock launchers. I have to use an xposed module to use my icon pack of choice on this new launcher and I sometimes feel like it slightly slows the device down.

They're over seas right now at the Oppo factory. Steve is normally the one that merges the new source. Give it a few months, well see test builds.

I had most of the 4.4 .APKs (including the launcher and Google Now) installed on my cm10.2 build for the past day or so, but today I experienced the crash/bootloop scenario that's been plaguing the nightly builds lately; after a forced reboot, all the 4.4 apps were gone, and since I had frozen Trebuchet in TiBU, I was without a launcher and had to restore a NAND backup. Was I supposed to lock all the 4.4 apps into the system folder or something?

I don't know why they would disappear but you could have enabled trebuchet without restoring. You could have accessed the settings through quick settings, went to the apps section, found trebuchet and hit enable. Also, there's no reason to freeze it. Once you switch to a different launcher and reboot, none of your other installed launchers will run. Just for future reference.

Settings was even crashing upon opening; it was incredibly odd. As for the freezing, I and many others who installed the 4.4 launcher were experiencing the default launcher setting not sticking even after setting it to the 4.4 launcher; freezing Trebuchet (the only other one I had installed) fixed this. But that obviously didn't work out so well for me...

I browse /r/Android on reddit often, and people were going nuts posting links to all the apks. I'm sure they're all over the internet by now.
But yes, that's the launcher I'm running. It's so limited in features compared to others, but it really does everything I need. Some people don't seem to like the google now to the left of the main homescreen, but I'm digging it.
I'm really hoping for kit kat to make it's way to our device though. I saw there's a CM11 branch, but who knows what kind of code needs updating and/or compatibility issues.
Do you need to be rooted to do this I keep getting a parsing error
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
Checking it out myself, thanks to your thread, however after installing the apks I somehow seem to have broken the "okay Google" feature. Google search updated itself and all after installation but even if I choose search manually now it still won't respond to the command.
Your right tho, the launcher is simple but works well. The only thing I don't care for is the constant Google search box on the home screen especially when all you have to do is say the command and it goes straight there.

CM11 Alpha for the INC4G
You've got to check out Cyanogenmod 11 for our device. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552150 I had to flash the updated Recovery but I have had no issues so far. There's a fair bit in 4.4 that you don't get from the base Kit Kat apps that you can install for 4.1 and up.
CM 11 nightly
I've been using the nightly from 12-26 and it is 4.4.2 I have had no issues at all, and it seems to be running smooth. Battery is draining pretty well, but it does in any rom due to the lack of signal from my house. I'm at the office now, running wifi and it seems to be draining less.
Hello everyone,
I have tried looking around the XDA forums regarding my issue but my case seems a bit unique and so I haven't really seen any threads that solved my problem.
I have always stuck with AOSP and AOKP roms solely for their customisation capabilities and quick updates. Only gripe I have with these is just the poor battery life, which is why I went back to using a sammy rom.
Specifically, when I use a 4.3 stock sammy rom (i.e. I was using Indie's Omega Rom when this first happened), after I record a video in instagram and try to upload it, the app crashes. I can get to the page just before the caption page and the app crashes. This isn't just specific to the Omega Rom but all 4.3 stock roms I have tried, so I'm thinking that this isn't a rom-specific issue maybe..? But it might be something to do with the camera itself?
I have tried wiping the dalvik cache, fixing permissions, and even formatting my whole phone - both internal and external storages, so I'm not sure what might be the problem. Which is why I hope someone can help me out
I have seen some threads which have said it might be an issue with changing some camera settings but I haven't touched these so that shouldn't be an issue.
On a side note, another issue I've noticed with the 4.3 stock roms is that apps such as LMT don't work even though they are running in the background and I receive toast notifications about them having root access and all. Not sure if this is related, or something else completely.
I thank you for taking the time to read this, and really hope I can get some help regarding this isue.
Regards.
having the same issue here on s3...... on mk6 4.3 rom. has also happened to me across CM11 and cm10.2 and s4 revolution rom.
anyone know what i can try?
