And another bug - I notice what cache for internal memory and SD card is always set to 4 kb. Maybe it is because of FIOPS sheduler.
By the way, which sheduler is faster in this ROM?
The 4 kb cache size is normal, and for the scheduler, just stick with FIOPS, it is the best choice to get a fast and responsive system. But you might want to try bfq, too.
 
Now I think what problem with apps which I wrote upper was caused by exFAT file system. There are no such problems with FAT32.
So what about to improve exFAT support in further updates or there are some hardware limitations?
P.S. I use 32 GB class 10 microSD from Transcend.

And after more than a week i used this ROM I can list some bugs and flaws:
1. Screen flickering is very annoying
2. The battery charge change after every reboot, for example, it was 15% before and after reboot it becomes 30%.
3. Can't add WiFi networks. Only in a certain periods of time can, all other time it says "cannot connect to network/cannot save network".
4. Sometimes all widgets and shortcuts completely desappear from main screen.
5. Sometimes the phone's screen don't turn on after pressing power button, only touch buttons lights up. After second pressing and then pressing again power button it's turning on.
I will write more with time.

Actually the file should already be written to the partition when the signature is checked, but of course it won't boot if the signature isn't ok.
Maybe parts of your emmc are broken and the partition can't be written anymore. But you should be able to write the file with dd if you're root and the device is S-OFF.
Copy the recovery image to sdcard, then just do adb shell and get root with su, then execute "dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.2/by-name/recovery". I actually didn't flash anything to this phone with dd so far, but it should work.

I was able to bypass the signature check by unlocking my HTC following the vendor instructions.

I am using it since then.
I got some problems. I can't really be using Wifi. THere is some major bug right there. I connect to the home wireless router and then internet interrupts and cannot be used again.
Think the same with mobile internet. Unusable. Major problem :) to be unable to use internet :)
Another thing sometimes phone freeze when trying to answer a call :) i simply cannot slide to answer :)
other than that its awesome.
But internet need to be fixed in order to have a fully functional device.

I was using CM12.1 and I wanted to flash CM11 so I flashed it using TWRP by wiping everything including internal storage. On booting after flashing the boot animation was upside down and the phone was stuck in that . It is being detected by adb but it shows the device is offline . I cannot boot to fastboot mod . What should i do please help. 1484037499752145445493.jpg

I had nearly the same problem, the device was frozen a little earlier. I could solve this with flashing the boot.img to the boot partition again (via fastboot on your PC).

fastboot flash boot boot.img

You can find the boot.img in the CM package, extract it from there, then boot with vol down Button and go to fastboot mode and connect the device to you PC via USB.

Maybe that helps.

The old mic-volume problem

Hello jonas,

I'm still on rev 20160413. Had no reason to update accept of one thing. There was a bug, some months ago, that the mic level lowered while speaking (with telephone) and it is still here (as a lot of called parties reported to me). Is it possible to check, if the bug is fixed in CM11 too? (I found nothing in the changelog)
Could anybody confirm this problem? Maybe my phone is defective an it is a hardware issue.

Thanks a lot for your work, I love this CM11 Rom very much.

    Still people here who like (or are) using cm11?
    Looks like Michael Bestas (the maintainer of the Xperia devices with our SOC) finally patched the cm11 sources and fixed the security holes.
    If you guys want I can build cm11 again. It should benefit a lot from the caf backporting I've done.
