Hard reset before update

Do you think a clean install would be worth a try?

I hard-reset before I installed 01/18, having been on 01/10 (which was ok) & 01/17 (which gave problems) - so far, wi-fi behaves well and no screen flashing issues... touch wood.

So if it's not the gfx driver, what is the culprit? unfortunately I don't know much about developing, so I can't help ...

Clean install did not help me.

I updated to the 1-19 nightly for the HD yesterday and was extremely happy to see that the local user profile image was restored to the "User switcher" tile in the notification drawer. I know it's just a GUI thing, but I really didn't like having my Google+ avatar in there. So thanks for that!

I just got my first spontaneous reboot ever (on any ROM) yesterday while granting superuser privileges to Battery Doctor to prevent autostart for some apps. But I haven't had any since. Also, on one of the nightlies a few days ago, wi-fi once reconnected after sleep to a neighbor's network, instead of mine. But that hasn't been repeated since then. Other than those 2 minor things, performance with CM 11 has been rock solid and stable.

There is one thing -- Battery drain seems to be slightly higher with CM 11 than on stock, but only while in actual use. While sleeping, it's actually a little better, getting 0-1% battery drain overnight.

After the second reboot with 18/1 unofficial, the network wasn't forgotten. Did wpa configuration format or location change?

Forget it, the wifi is still losing the configuration after each reboot. It is almost like wpa_supplicant wasn't opening the conf file.

Installed 1/19 nightly last night. Wifi was logged out when i turned it on from sleep. Toggling wifi didnt fix it, had to manually reconnect

That's so weird. I've never had any issues with Wi-Fi on CM11 so far. Including the 01-19 official build. It just jumps right in with access whenever I need it. No need to reset anything. I have the 'Wi-Fi on during sleep' set to only when plugged in. And whether it's plugged in or not, it never has a problem connecting.

1/18 build is very smooth. One issue with 1080p video playback. I used to be able to record 1080p video using camcorder onto a MicroSD card, and then plug the card into Nook HD+ and play back using VPlayer with HW decoder enabled. This worked beautifully with the Stock ROM. In 1/18 Vplayer can only play with HW decoder disabled and the video will stutter. It crashes if enabled.

Deleted -- read the comment wrong.

Nothing to see here ... move along.

How are you recording 1080p on a device that doesn't have a camera?

He's not, read it again.

I've also had issue with 1080p anime. It plays but way too much stutter.

Has anyone tested the 1/21 Nightly? Any random reboots or black screen flickering issues?

With 1/21 for around 3 hours. Screen flickering still there. Haven't experienced any random reboot.... yet....

I'm not sure about the 1080p issue. I tried 720p only. MX player with H/W decoder enabled. It works smoothly. 1/21 build here.

bxlegend · Jan 21, 2014

There were no device specific changes in the latest nightly. Therefore, the same issues will still exist.

Ok. I think I have finally figured out what is going on. Notice that I didn't say I know why, but what. First for those of you who are having the Wi-Fi issues, are you running on dalvik or ART? I don't know why, but I think it makes a difference. I've been running on ART for the last few days, and haven't experienced any problems with Wi-Fi.

Today, for kicks I decided to go back to dalvik, just to see if I could notice anything different. Well, the first thing I noticed was that my Wi-Fi wasn't working. I couldn't even start it by deactivate it and reactivate it, or by turning on airplane mode and back off. So I went to Wi-Fi settings and had to enter in my password. Which is exactly the problem others have been complaining about.

I thought, there's no way that could be the difference, there must be something different in this build. So to test, I decided to go back TO ART and after the reboot happened, I had instant access to Wi-Fi.

So it's my theory that SOMEHOW ART is remembering the Wi-Fi password, but dalvik isn't. Hope this helps.

Good point! I am running Dalvik and just experienced a random reboot on 1/21 Nightly and the Wi-Fi issue. Strange.

I've been on dalvik from the start (never tried ART, can't give up Xposed) and have no problems at all with Wi-Fi on 1/17 UNOFFICIAL. On 1/10 I did have to turn Wi-Fi off and back on after sleep.

1/18 unofficial or nightly ? The 1080p fix probably didn't make in until the 1/19 nightly.

I've only heard of Xposed, never used, or read what it can do, really (or how to install it). So I guess I don't know what I am missing. Might give it a try some time. if I'm not too lazy!

I run my own builds (and ocasionally nightlies) and I have zero wifi problems. Did not get around to trying ART, so 100% davlik.

I myself have no Wi-Fi problems on my build with TI WPA _SUPPLICANT. I think it might depend on the user's router/modem/security.

However, webdroidmt uses my build and have Wi-Fi problem. He replaced the wpa_supplicant.conf from the TI WPA_SUPPLICANT with non TI WPA_SUPPLICANT and it fixes it for him. Maybe someone here should test it out to see if it fixes the Wi-Fi problem for them.
All they have to do is edit the content inside /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

Non TI WPA_SUPPLICANT

Code:

update_config=1
ctrl_interface=wlan0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
p2p_no_group_iface=1

TI WPA_SUPPLICANT

Code:

update_config=1
ctrl_interface=wlan0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
device_name=Blaze
manufacturer=TI
model_name=Wilink
model_number=wl18xx
serial_number=12345
disassoc_low_ack=1
concurrent_sched_scan=1
