    Anyone else having problems with GPS on CM13? Seems like no matter what I do I can't get the GPS to work right with any navigation app I've tried.

    Anyone tried this? I've been reading that people have been getting it to work, but haven't seen it confirmed by anyone in this community. CM 14.1 is Nougat/Android 7, and supposedly, the christer12 build is compatible with VZW Note 3 devices. Tempted to try it, but looking for feedback first.

    Thread [Q] Easier to root from MI9 or MJ7?

    I'm still running MI9 and keep getting hassled to take the OTA update. From what I'm reading, it's easier to root and not lose data from MJ7. But, it'd be nice to get the de-bloated Beans Stock coming from rooted MI9 as well. I've been out of the game a while and a lot has changed. Not...
