I'd spent the entire day doing searches on how to root my phone, got all sorts of information in my brain and some of the questions were more confirmatory and leading to to 3&4. My phone isn't in English and I'm not that familiar with the android vocabulary so sometimes I just can't think of specific search terms and honestly just can't find anything. Being tired doesn't help :) Thanks for your help though! Now I've got a fresher brain so lets see if I can now find what I'm looking for a bit easier.

P.S. it's short for "how the app was before switching to cyanogenmod" ;)
I think you are still new you will get habituated with this stuff and if u want to go to cm rom backup with twrp/cwm (whatever) so even if u r stuck at something, u can easily restore and ive got a trick for you
  1. get the android folder inside sd card to save data and all apks (in my sense manual method is safe method )
  2. use this app (i know you will like it) and
  3. swipe left in the app and you will see user app tab
  4. in user app there will be your installed apps in apks

any questions ??? just pm me and get used to search bars

I have troubles with Twitch with CM 11, for some reason it wont load anything but I have no problems on stock ROM. Is there any fix for it, I'm really new to this flash-ROMs thingy so I don't really know what more I should add.

CM11 and CM10.2 seem to have some issues with video hw acceleration, try CM 10.1

I watch movies (yesterday, for example) with hw acceleration on mx player pro app, without any problem, on CM11:)

MX player has his special internal codecs for video acceleration, if you try youtube and streaming applications you'll have anti aliasing issues or black videos.

Hi everyone,
I've been using the CM11 rom for a few weeks now and it's awesome, so far I really love it!

However, I have this issue ever since I installed it: when I plug the phone in to charge it, if the phone is turned off, the screen always shows the "loading" icon, and never displays the battery icon. Also, it keeps the screen on.
Is this a known issue? Does anyone experience this as well?

Thanks!

These are the problems I have with the CM11 ROM:

Clock freeze - Already tried all the fixes, like freezing clock applications. Alarm now get gets delayed like 5 minutes, after I applied the fixes...

WiFi saved - Can't connect to new Wireless Networks, says 'Saved'...

SMS - When I access a received SMS from notification, it displays the first message of the conversation with that person. It's really annoying having to scroll all the way down when you have over 1000 sms with that person.
- Also, the black theme in SMS doesn't do a thing, it keeps the white theme...

Play Store - It doesn't want to download new apps, says I'm out of space when I'm not... Already tried those clear app/data cache and it's still the same...

I'm getting annoyed with all these bugs :/

I always clear cache and dalvik when I update the ROM...

I using the 4.4.2 kitkat version for the SIII Mini (works well) Is it just me though or is the display in the play store all messed up beside your apps?

It works with your previous CM11 rom!? You can go in recovery & format your micro sd. You will loose everything, so before, copy all your data to your pc.
