Im currently running cm11 on xoom. Chrome freezes lots. Is there a fix or workaround.

At one point in time (around May) people were having issues with any version of Chrome newer than or including V34. People were reverting back to V33. I don't know if it has been resolved as I went back to using the stock browser.

I dug around - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52506042&postcount=920 - this post has/had a link to Chrome V33. I cannot vouch for the link. I ended up getting V33 out of a PAGapps package that I had backed up from the beginning of March.

How do I side load chrome v33. I am unable to do so. I keep getting the error , app not installed.

Xoom, EOS kitkat., EX2.1

The CM11 install messed up for me, could I please get some help at the thread I posted on this? Thanks! Just wish this ROM would work for me..

I have the same issue with Chroma and Opera -both crashing my Xoom (Everest, [4.4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 ). When i tried to kill chrome, it kills also my battery - discharging takes about 4h from 100% to 0%.

Now I installed Chrome v32 and works fine

Frequent Freezes of Wingray requiring Reboot

In Aug-Sept 2014, there was a discussion in the thread: [ROM][4.4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 - Wingray Stingray Everest - bigPart, related to Frequent Freezing of Wingray requiring Reboots (see posts 595, 597, 599, 600, 611 and 615). I have been experiencing the same (or very similar) issues for several months. I have an MZ604 with Wingray and have been taking the monthly updates regularly since they have become available; I initially installed CyanogenMod about 7 months ago. I have been running with Xposed and Wakelock Terminator as described in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2697893.

The freezes almost always (with one exception) happen when the XOOM is sleeping; the exception was a crash that happened once while I was using the device, but it might be a different issue. Freezes were happening about once/day, but in the past few weeks had increased to almost every time I put the XOOM to sleep. The only way to recover from a Freeze is to completely reboot the device by holding both the power button and the Volume button simultaneously for several seconds. Freezes usually seemed to be accompanied with a significant battery reduction, so I suspect something was coming to life, using a lot of battery for a while and then killing the XOOM. My Battery Monitoring app would never keep data through one of these freezes, so it was useless in helping me understand what came to life, used the battery and then caused the crash.

For some reason, this week the XOOM has stayed alive for an entire battery cycle. I recharged it 4 or 5 days ago, and used it according to my usual pattern of 3 or 4 times per day for anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour each time. The battery went down by about 15-20% per day at a pretty consistent rate. I put it back on the charger this morning with 16% battery left. After the very frequent freezes prior to this week, I was very surprised to see it stay alive for a full 4-5 day period. For the rest of you who were experiencing these freezes/crashes, did your device start working without freezes this week too?

Which GAPPS for CM11 ?

Hi all,
just flashed cm-11-20140912-UNOFFICIAL-1551+0200-everest.zip on my MZ601, trying to get some of the google apps working. In my previous tests, with EOS-full_everest-20141110.083307.zip the chrome browser ( either beta than normal ) used to hang, and so it does google maps.
I've flashed pa_gapps-modular-full-4.4.4-20141110-signed.zip but I have the same behavior with maps ( crash when zooming ) and I suspect also the hang on chrome ( not tested yet ).

I have read on the thread <url> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56740906&highlight=maps#post56740906 </url> that on the latest version maps crash but seem to be working on some previous release.

So the question: which version should I install to get a working maps and ( eventually ) chrome ?

Thanks in advance

Gentlemen,

After flashing with this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596566) my xoom started dying in less than 24 hours(even with wifi off).
With the original rom it would last several days in stand by mode.

Any clues?

thx

New guy here, i just installed the omni everest build for the xoom following these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593414
Everything works as expected except my verizon 3g i have explored all available settings and rebooted and reflashed several times. It registers verizon signal but under status it says network type unknown and status as disconnected. Is there something im missing? The tablet was stock before and all mobile signals worked as they should

Thanks!

Thanks for the guide mate.

At first, I had user issues with the TWRP. TWRP asked me to enter a password during initial boot. I just hit cancel. It then could not do any wipe per instructions on this page (page 1) including Advanced Wipe, Mount cache, etc. Perhaps, I was a bit lazy reading every word.
So I skipped this process and went ahead and flashed the [ ClockworkMod Recovery ], I't s a very nice familiar Interface during my Droid X days. The TWRP is also now quite familiar to me since I used it to install [ CyanogenMod Crombi-kk on my Asus TF700T ] (sloww device! My Xoom is faster!!! Believe it!) Anyhow the whole install including the ROM was a breeze. However, I noticed that the version says 4.2.2 or something like that. I wanted 4.4.4.

So here I was, back again.

Anyway, I re-flashed back the recovery to TWRP then decided to just go ahead and format the data (IIRC, that option is available)
Guess what, it worked! Installed the ROM and done! =)

Oh BTW, I also installed the PA_GAPPS. I don't remember where I got the link from, but I'll try to edit this if I find it.

Bug?

I got this rom to run just fine, and most things seem to work well.

The biggest issue I am having with the latest posted CM11 with BigPart is with Plants vs. Zombies 2 which wont display anymore. I have tried a new install and restoring the backup from the old nightly CM 10.1 and nothing works.. Flashed this ROM to my second Xoom to verify the issue, noticed a handful of games that launch to a glitched or black screen. Thoughts?

Would hate to back-date as everything ELSE is running faster than it has in a while.
