so far so good on the new build. my default messaging app works! first time, nice! front and rear camera working, but i have boost volt so they have always worked. not quite sure about the LTE cuz i'm on wifi but it's worked on all other builds, just not constantly.

Not all boost, I have boost and my camera doesn't work on any of the CM12 builds, haven't tried this latest one though (yet)

Awesome job again, @Bad_MOFO_33 !
I can confirm the camera is still not working for me on this build

Garner 27529 · Apr 8, 2015

Do we still need to flash APN fix,deep sleep fix,etc? Thanks again.

I can't seem to get this to boot downloaded a couple times to make sure it downloaded right and it stuck on boot with the android face

ladlr23 · Apr 8, 2015

Lte, GPS, both cameras works great. All around very stable build

the only thing not working for me is bluetooth, which sucks because now I can't connect to my car every time it connects Bluetooth just forces close, could there be a fix for this?

halcyonknight · Apr 8, 2015

I don't have a working SIM yet for LTE, and every time the SIM would lock ~10 minutes after booting in CM12, I couldn't make calls or use 3G, (figured it wasn't worth mentioning since I just need to get a working SIM.) I don't know if it's a change you made somewhere or a change made between 12 and 12.1, but that seems to be fixed now!

That's odd, Bluetooth is working fine for me, at least with my Moga controller.

Does anybody know if video is fixed

kwknott · Apr 8, 2015

Nice build. Everything worked great for me except rear camera. I must have one of the difficult Volts

Edit: Looks like posting is working again.

I came from stock zv3, factory reset, flashed. Front and back camera worked out of the box using the stock camera app. GPS seems to lock fairly quickly. Haven't tried bluetooth yet. Outgoing and incoming voice calls are fine, sms and mms work fine with Textra. Overall, the rom seems stable and runs very smoothly.

The main issue I had initially was with my signal. Signal would go in and out repeatedly and would only connect to 3G, never 4G. I played around with the built in APN settings, which gave me a large list of APNs to choose from, but they didn't help. I flashed the APN fix, and when I checked the APN settings again it replaced the large list with two Virgin Mobile listings (I'm on Virgin). I selected the first one and at first, it didn't seem to work. When I tried switching to the second one, it switched back automatically to the first one and suddenly I had LTE. At that point my problems with signal going in and out were also resolved, though signal strength doesn't seem to be as strong or consistent as it was on stock. This has been fixed for about 18 hours now and the rom's been pretty great.

Great job, Bad_MOFO_33! Stable for me, rear camera OK.....rear camcorder doesn't save in CM12.1 camera app or Google Camera app but does save/work in Camu. Camu rear camcorder worked until close to 5min back in CM12 for video before stopping & saving (press record again and OK for another 4-5min; merge edit later is easy), and I know Camu camera/camcorder (both front and rear) work great in CM12.1; it might only rear record for 4-5min at a time in CM12.1 but I haven't tested. MTP doesn't work for me with Windows 8.1 update and CM12.1 (same for last CM12 build), so I just boot into Lollipop TWRP which is easy enough. Looks great! You've done an awesome job, thanks!

I've got bluetooth here too - it connects to my car with no problems. Did you do a clean flash, @ladlr23 ?

Same thing happened to me, I pulled the battery and Booted up again and let it be and it went through.. I think the first boot just takes like 15 -20 minutes

Yes I did, wiped everything except for external SD. I even downloaded the file again and did a clean flash and still the same problem.

I think you must enable Android Debugging under Developer options. then replug usb cable.

no sim service is a bug in CM12 just ignore it. try reflashing rom. select apn, reboot. If that doesnt work, use apn fix, then choose appropriate apn, reboot. Hope this helps

Took battery out and then put it back turned it on then booted fine

bg4m3r · Apr 9, 2015

Well, I guess I need to take the battery out then, lol.

halcyonknight · Apr 9, 2015

If anyone's having trouble with MTP, I've noticed that somehow (on every ROM, and even on different phones) the driver on my computer keeps getting messed up, to where it seems like MTP is broken, but going through Windows troubleshooting to reinstall the driver always fixes it
