I was only told about the camera update fix being implemented. I do not know status of other bugs though I will say I haven't had any stability or battery life problems.Really. So you are saying that cm-11-20131228-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip or later should at least fix the camera? I just checked the CyanogenMod Spyder downloads and such a download is not available as of yet. 1227 is available now. Any news if the WiFi AP issue has been addressed or is it still a matter of patching? I depend on that to run my tablet and not having it is a no go. The launcher apparently sucks, the Trebuchet launcher 1.0 was nice in 10.2, highly configurable, but it looks like now we will have to use Nova or Apex launchers.
I did a dirty flash as a Settings menu update just to see what it looks like and it was bad. WiFi AP seriously dysfunctional, appears to be some sort of DHCP problem and it starts out with very low broadcast power output but ramps up high in about 1 minute, still dysfunctional. I deleted the slot and went back to 10.2. There is a new nightly every day and they seem to address "some" issues. At some point, I think the release will be ready for prime time and 24/7 use, but what I see so far means I will be updating like every day, fresh from scratch, and it takes way too long to setup my phone the way I like it to keep up with these nightly releases. I want a good one I can use every day before I am willing to do this again.
If you got inside info dope on this release, do tell. Camera only fixed? WiFi PA? Launcher? Stability? Battery life? Performance? Hey, I will take whatever you have and be thankful for it. But I am waiting for something "good" before I go through all this crap again. Thanks.
The camera fix is this one:

Also change log is here and for those of you that use it BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) is being enabled in tomorrow's nightly as well as you can see:

Also you can just flash new nightly over top of the old without losing settings, data, or any of your setup. Only time a fresh install is necessary is when you encounter uncommon issues or new ones that only you are experiencing. At that point we recommend trying a fresh flash before a bug report is made.
Cheers and happy flashing
