I have a problem in this build and the last...
Every time I turn off the phone and then turn on I have to re enable the nav bar....
Somebody have this problem?
Any solution?
I have always had this problem too, up until the previous 28/7 build. (before mahdi left). Kept posting about this issue but mahdi says he doesn't get the same problem.

Which is why I'm on c-rom again even though it is older.

Was going to flash the 30/8 until your post came up. If it still has that issue I'm going to skip flashing it.

Did u drive anywhere?
From my house to work. I leave my GPS on whenever I leave the house. Weird habit I guess.

Edit: One of the things i do on the first day i flash a Rom is "Leave everything On". (Even though it drains the hell out of my battery LOL). Just to see what works and the what not. I'm pretty impressed and happy.

Back on mahdi as i saw thread coming alive again - woohoo. Had too many network issues with Spirit and SOKP.
Gps seems very ok here.
Small glitch is the backlight setting (disabled) of the hardware buttons resetting after reboot.
Battery life unbeatable.

Anyone else having the lockscreen call UI appear over the screen when on a call? Means I can't Hang up or use the speaker/Keypad/Mute buttons

Due to all negative reports about the update I have to say everything runs perfect here on my i9505. I performed a clean install using latest philz recovery and flashed slim beta gapps(31.8).
Thx so much for the update

Anyone have any ideas how to adjust the DPI? When I edit the build.prop and save it, it just reverts back to what it was as soon as I close it. I have given the editor root permissions and r/w permissions. I also tried changing it with Texdroider.

    Surprise!! New build is up. I had some time yesterday to merge cm's latest changes to device trees, vendor blobs and kernel (major changes), if you guys are keeping up with cm nightlys you will know already that cm has re-based the kernel on caf, update vendor blobs including gpu drivers and major changes in the device trees. I had some time yesterday night to merge these changes and make build for you guys since others are struggling. I haven't tested it but there's nothing experimental in there.
