Battery life is average. But it drains a lot if I use a live wallpaper. Anyone notice it?
Btw,I can't find volume rocker wake options.

I guess I must spoon feed you.

This is directly from the buglist on my CM10.1 thread:

Some (not all) seem to experience issues with GPS. If you have issues with GPS, please flash the JB soak (thanks for that great guide thedarkness000) and then flash CM10.1. GPS should work now. (I've also heard you can just flash back to stock, get a lock, then flash CM10.1 again...)

I also gave you another option which does not require you to flash the soak. Please read my posts and do a bit of research before responding, thanks.

I can confirm this solution!

Just restored an old backup of the last stock 4.0.4 version, waited some seconds for a GPS fix, directly restored back to CM10.1 and GPS now also works on CM10.1!:good::laugh::D

It could simply be that CM10 screws something in GPS ... and CM10.1 then isn't able to fix that.

That could be possible. I also had CM10 running on my Photon Q before.

I'd highly recommend not messing with hardware/qcom/gps and just forking your own local copy. There is so much variation between devices that just looking at the code will break it for someone else.

confirming this, it works! came from ASA14, just used google maps to get a lock with the gps and then flashed cm10.1!
thanks a lot!

Is anyone else having a high pitched noise while making calls though? Had this with cm10 as well, not with stock...
It's like a little high pitched cricket in the background....

I'm also having that high pitch whine, same as with cm10. I have flashed first cm10.1 nightly right over the cm10. I can also confirm problems with GPS not getting the lock.

Now I'm back on stock asa14 from backup, waitng for OTA JB update. Already got it on my girlfriends phone yesterday (it's been on stock asa14 all time). However still no OTA update on mine since I've reverted back to stock yesterday night.

Does anyone know which rooting method works on stock JB update?

You do not need the JB moto update.

I only flashed back to ICS (4.0.4) as said three posts before, waited for GPS fix (for example with Google Maps) and then flashed back to my CM10.1 backup. Then GPS also worked on CM10.1 for me. MFighter confirmed this, just try it.;)

There is one thing fixed with official JB update for GSM:
- manual network selection now works

I know, but I hope to fix some more issues (possibly also unknown yet) than gps with official JB update before cm10.1 flash. E.g. manual network selection which works on stock JB OTA and didn't work for me in cm10.1. Could someone please confirm if it works in cm10.1 flashed over the stock JB update?

It seems it doesn't work for me, too. I don't get a list of networks after a very long search time.

strange storage mount behaviours

That sounds logical.

Some posts ago I wrote about the strange behaviour of the usbdisk mounts in /storage. Can anyone confirm this?

Today I had another strange behaviour. It seems the internal storage is mounted to /storage/emulated/0. But there also is a /storage/emulated/legacy which includes the same data from the internal storage. Additional to this there is a directory "0" in /storage/emulated/0 which seems to be a mount for the external sdcard storage.:eek:

I think this is a very strange behaviour. In the stock Rom there only was the internal an the external storage. On CM10 we had /storage/sdcard0 for the internal and /storage/sdcard1 for the external sd card storage, which was also ok. But the "concept" from CM10.1 which I described above seems very strange and unlogacal to me. Can this be fixed?

I heard the incremental folder name 0, 1, 2, ... is due to the introduction of multiple profile functionality of CM10.1

Hmm.. do we have to move all the contents from root to 0 then?

    Next nightly (mine) will have the ability to use SD card as primary storage (instead (for downloaded game data etc.), see Advanced Settings. This feature is experimental.

    Just to clarify:
    Audio recording was broken by upstream update of qcom alsa code around the 20/06 nightly.
    It has been fixed in 22/06 with the exception of camcorder still recording mute videos.

    By now, the camcorder should be fully fixed again. So look forward to 23/06 nightly.
    Btw., MTP/USB charging without ADB enabled will work as well...
