    I am also looking for this mysterious "Galaxy Tools" all I got when I downloaded GTools3.1.5.apk is the idoneapps app that charges to read MSL. :( Who knows anything about this process? The SPCUtility.apk also did not work (remote file not found on server, or something)

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL] CyanogenMod Nightly Builds for jfltespr

    Can someone please give me the status of the Bluetooth stability? I just clean flashed the latest snapshot (Nov, 2015), and I'm getting Bluetooth crashes every couple hours. I just bought a smart watch so it's disappointing, I'm considering going to cm11 if I can't get a stable Bluetooth ROM.

    I'll try to get around to trying that, but I just reinstalled all my apps and data, so who knows when I'll get around to it. Also I just copied the crash report: Does anyone know if I go back to cm11 (that's Android 4.4.4 correct?), will that have stable Bluetooth? I'm just curious why they...

    Thread CM 12.1 Bluetooth bugs?

    So I got a smart watch and recently started using Bluetooth. I was on a nightly, but the Bluetooth would cut out overnight and it would not turn on. So I did a clean flash of the snapshot from Nov 16 2015. That worked great for a few days, but now the Bluetooth is cutting out at night (I use...

    Thread Is CM12 nightly stable enough?

    I still have CM11 on my Sprint S4, one of the Milestone releases. But I'm thinking about taking the lollipop plunge. Can anyone tell me how the nightlies are on the jfltespr? Stable enough for everyday use? (Everything working, not crashing often, etc) thanks

    Post [Q] how can I force software menu button to show?

    Exactly, I can root it (I have CM11 on my own S4 so I have rooted before). I just wanted someone to tell me exactly what to change and I'll root it and do the modification. I just don't want to root it if I can't find out how to accomplish the menu button.

    Post [Q] how can I force software menu button to show?

    I actually did try that, but it was a very ugly interface. There's gotta be some system-wide setting that lets all apps know whether you have a hardware menu button or not, right?
