First of all, very appreciate for making this ROM so that we can experience the latest Android version. This ROM is very awesome!
However, after a few weeks' try , i want to get the features of the official ROM back. Thus i intent to use the flashtool to flash the official firmware back .But after i successfully flash the firmware of Lolipop5.1.1, It stop booting for freezing at the bootanimation. the same situation happened when i flash the official based rom.
I spent almost 2hours to seach this thread to look for the solution, and i found that someone gets the same problem ,however, without solved. This may be a common problem for the one who flash this cm14.1.
I sincerely hope that @Chippa_a can give us a proper solution since we have choice to select other ROMs , but not a single ROM of cm14.1 for the whole life of our phone . Thank a lot !

I solved it!!! install stock rom 4.4.4 with Flashtool, i use this : https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_0uKEUjkKBfOGEzcFg2djZFUU0/edit

Finally start without problems and i can from there install again Lollipop and other based stock roms....

We might have some tips for you but you will definately won't like it.

Because
1 :) it might involve you moving to a place where there is no weak mobile signal - whenever the signal gets weak that costs you a lot of battery .
2 :) It will definately involve you getting rid of the gapps which are the biggest battery drain ever.
3:) it might involve you getting rid of the adaptive brightness and set your brightness to a lower setting which will result in.... well dimmer everything.
4 :) Get rid of the the apps that are the biggest offenders.. Replace them with something else.

FOR EXAMPLE: people nowadays will have an app to play music an app to play videos and an other app to show pictures an other app to browse through the music pictures and videos and.....you got the idea.

All of these apps when they start syncing and waking up will eat processor's cycles which in turn will drain the battery

If you wanna follow my example ,you will delete all the above apps and ONLY USE MiXeplorer which is a file manager that can PLAY MUSIC ,VIDEO AND ACTS AS A GALERY.
Now instead of 4 apps that connect to internet , synnc eat processor cycles and bandiwth trying to stay all the time connected to their servers , so send telemetry statistics usage ,to receive updates TO DISPLAY HEAVY ADDS if your apps are having adds and all that, now YOU ONLY HAVE ONE that does not do adds or any of the things mentioned above.
If you wanna go further and install AFWall+ you can control the rest of the apps including the system apps..

Its all down to you..



Battery life is very bad I know its on beta stage
But, any tips for better battery life?

Thankyou so much :crying:after all these days' endless try, finally find out the way to solve this problem!
Anyway, this ROM is very smooth, And totally has no bug, i just want to get the stock ROMs' features back and have my phone under my own control.
Last , I can't appreciate more to you , and thank all the nice people to tried to help!
good day!

Hey chippa,
i found another bug today. After having received 3 notifications I could not 'pull up' the lockscreen any more. It was still responsive and the notifications moved but I could not unlock.

I have substratum installed with domination theme, Don't change any U I settings within the theme. ( Very important. Caused a boot loop when I messed with it)
Works fine for me.
I've also installed navigate theme, again works fine.

Can you reproduce it and post a log ?

It happened 3 or 4 times yesterday, so I guess I probably could reproduce the bug; I only have to switch the notifications on lockscreen back on, I guess.

But I dont know how to log bugs and upload them here, so you would have to tell me. ;)
I would like to help to improve this rom! It's an awesome rom.

very good Rom !
fast, minimal battery drain (I think better then original 5.0x)
working since 6 Days

for Brightness I use APP: Lux Lite / Lux Auto Brightness (since today)

only one time (yesterday) - Telefon freeze bzw. black screen (LED show new whatsapp), but no way to wake screen,
so I had to hardreset .

I only found one BUG: Bildschrimfixierung - Screen fixation - there is no way to release the fixation - only reboot works

You could start with this, it will export a log you can paste or attach here in the thread :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=scd.lcex

( There's a thread with the apk here in XDA too : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1513166 )

I have problem. Lux apps for auto change brightness no get values from light sensor. Only face sensor on/off (1/0).

Adaptive brightness is broken, as stated in the OP.

"Some app cannot be saved to the SD card" Which one exactly?

A log will be very helpful for the Developer to solve the problem. Without logs it is not even worth it coming here and spendin time to post that post because Without A LOG the DEV will NOT BE ABLE TO HELP fixing the problem.
