12 hours later, and I'm very pleased.

What needed to do:

The first time using the branded base I8730XXAMB7 version, the sound was really bad.

I put the stock I8730XXAMH1 version and everything working properly.

Thanks szezso, very good job.

Hey guys, sorry about the worthless CWM, I forgot to change some values. :D

But anyway, magnificent work, @szezso! I've been offline for a few days because I was switching data providers, but this is an awesome surprise!

But before I download, is the camera fully working?

1. Go to samsung-updates.com and look for your device.
2. Download the firmware for your device, taking into consideration your place of purchase and/or your CSC code.
3. Download Odin 3.09 (if you haven't already, Google has lots of links)
4. Open Odin 3.09, load the firmware into the PDA section, connect phone in download mode (Vol Down + Home + Power), then hit Start.

Just one more hint please.

I successful install the newest built from external sd-card with recoveryimage from this thread.
Sound is bad too.

what happen if i install the original zip via odin. Does CM remain and sound is fixed or is this a fall-back szenario
if the sound is still bad after install the backed up stock rom ??

About the clock. Clock is fine but the display doesnt set the right time until you use your phone.

Maybe you can share your build with broken mic in your device and because of the different baseband it might work in our devices

No, it doesn't work, I've sent that build to a guy, who had problems with audio. Please update your basebands! :) Suffer a bit if you want proper CM11... :p :)

tul: Logcat when you turn it off/on, because it's working for me...

i ever use odin 3.09 to install the stock ROM, but i want to know how to put the base band under CM11?

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:41 PM ----------

i switched to the stock rom, the set by manual can be kept after reboot.

for this ROM, I use filter, not sure if it is proper for your reference. first, this is the logcat after i uncheck automatic and set the time by myself
