[chenxiaolong]

Please check the stability of the nightlies before flashing or updading: http://tinyurl.com/noobdevFebruary CM has been merging some problematic commits lately.

The noobdev team is proud to present its noobdev CyanogenMod nightlies! This ROM is pure unmodified CyanogenMod with additional useful features, such as IR and app2sd support, as well as other device specific fixes and features. If you want me to add a specific commit or feature, just leave a post here.

Huge thanks to all the developers that made this possible and also the donators for supporting this ROM!

Enjoy!

Instructions:

1. Flash CM 11.0 and the gapps below.
2. Clear /data and /cache if you are coming from another ROM.
3. Reboot.

Dual boot instructions:

[LINK] DualBootUtilities zip
[LINK] Dual Boot Enabler/Disabler
[LINK] Dual Boot Switcher app
[LINK] Gapps for secondary ROM

NOTE: Before you do anything, download the DualBootUtilities zip and dual-boot enabler/disabler zips to your SD card. They'll really come in handy if something doesn't work right

1. Download the Dual Boot Switcher app and install it.
2. Open the app and set the current kernel as the primary kernel (screenshot)
3. Remove some bloatware with Titanium Backup or convert some system apps to user apps (ChatON, WatchON, S Health, Chrome) with this app Stock TouchWiz + this ROM will not fit on the /system partition
4. Reboot into recovery
5. Flash DualBootEnable.zip
6. Flash a >= 20130908 build of this ROM
7. Flash the dual boot Gapps above
8. Reboot
9. Install the Dual Boot Switcher app again in the secondary ROM
10. Enjoy!

IMPORTANT: Please don't use the recovery's built-in wiping features. Use the zip files in the "helpful zips" instead.

How do I...?

• Switch the ROM if something doesn't work properly?
  • Flash DualBootUtilities.zip. You will get a menu allowing you to switch to the primary or secondary ROM.

• Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
  • Flash DualBootUtilities.zip. You will get a menu that lets to wipe the respective partitions for either the primary or the secondary ROM.
  • It's important to not use the recovery's built-in wiping functions because they may delete files needed for the secondary ROM.

• Update the primary ROM?
  • Edit META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script so that it does not format /system or /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 (because the 16th partition is /system)
  • Flash DualBootUtilities.zip before updating the ROM and choose Wipe Primary /system. If the primary ROM is AOSP-based, you will need to reflash Gapps.
  • Make sure to set the kernel as primary in the dual boot switcher app

• Update the secondary ROM (this ROM)?
  • Just flash the update as usual

• Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
  • Just flash it
  • If it's a custom kernel, make sure you set it in the dual boot switcher app.

• Flash a mod or custom kernel for the secondary ROM?
  • The kernel will need to be patched. See this post for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45577913&postcount=1979

How do I...?

• Use Foldermount on this ROM?
  • Go to the development options and disable App2SD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45547358&postcount=1941
  • This setting is available on nightlies >= 20130913. Of course, moving apps to the SD card will no longer work.
  • If you are dual booting, you need to use /raw-data/media/0/... for the source path. See here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45560831&postcount=1952

Koush's 4.3 fixes for Superuser were just merged today. Root should be working just fine. Do you have another root app installed (like SuperSU)?

Yeah, that must be specific to jfltexx. I just tried taking about 20 pictures and a few videos and I didn't get any FCs.

By the way, I'm using the CM camera. I didn't try the one from the Google Edition i9505G.

Can't wait anymore, going to flash T-Mobile version. Updater script must first delete getprop line.
