Does this ROM still have problems with the camera?? And are third app cameras working well (such as Snapchat)??
[ROM] [5.0.2] Official CyanogenMod 12 for Desire 816
- Thread starter Grarak
- Start date
So I was reading about switching phone carriers for phones today. I have Virgin Mobile and it's a prepaid company by Sprint. Both of them run on a CDMA network, which is what I read, and phone companies that run on a GSM network use sim cards. Now, this doesn't quite make sense since all android phones I've had on Virgin Mobile had a similar card inside and CDMA networks supposedly don't use sim cards. Does this mean the a5_chl (Virgin Mobile) is actually both, CDMA and GSM. In the settings, I can select which one I want to use (in CM not stock htc rom) too. Since my a5_chl is rooted and says "unlocked" than technically, I could switch companies but only to a company that has a similar network to Virgin Mobile; like, sprint or boost mobile.
Ok guys, bad news.
The camera is not fixable at the moment. The Htc one m9 guys stuck at the same point as well. I probably have to wait until they manage to fix that problem.
So no nightlies for the next few weeks I guess.

I'm on a5_chl (Virgin Mobile) and the camera works. I can snapchat, instagram, etc. On Grarak's 12.1 that is.
Can anyone report which Desire 816 doesn't have their cameras working? I'm curious how far reaching this problem is.
Camera does not work with the new lollipop blobs. Since I didn't release any builds with new camera blobs yet, all builds have working camera.
New CM 12.1 build

This should work fine on all variants.

Mobile data switching back on is fixed it seems
No more broken mobile data when I turn off WiFi or get out of my home's WiFi range. Awesome.
In call audio working fine? Or we still need to toggle speakerphone on/off to get audio in callMobile data switching back on is fixed it seems
I'm also eager to know that[emoji1] [emoji2] [emoji1]

Tested on a5ul. Still can't text or receive texts with native text app, or textra, or others. Can't hang up calls. Stays on hanging up screen though it does hang up the call. When you close it out try to call again it shows a return to call, add a call, use keypad menu.
Running on a5chl finally working data. !!!!!!!!! Camera works so does the native messaging app

Whether the MIC working fine on calls, or still we need on/off speaker mode to get audio.?

Battery life is good on the last build ?!
CM12 is very stable and fast

If you know how to flash and how to backup from recovery, then test don't ask. And give reports back to help stabilise. Not wanting to moralize, no offense meant
Did what I 'preach' and main camera works much better than older build.
All seems to work, no sms received but that may be people ignoring me.
Don't use music stuff, but phone, g+, gallery, Inbox all seem good (some on sdcard too)
+1flash junkie with a smile.

You have a personal changelog or we check the cm one? Thx buddy. How are exams going?
So I either have somehow magically freed up space or it is a glitch. Now, I normally had around 600mg's of free internal storage and after a reboot, I now have 1.2 gb's of free internal storage. I was moving apps to my SD card but I had only freed up to around 800mb's.
I have a5_chl running CM12 (may 23rd build)

I tried this on Virgin mobile. The same MIC issue exists in this build also. For incoming calls everything works fine. But the MIC issue happening mostly on outgoing calls.
Even switching to speaker mode also not resolving the mic issue on outgoing calls.
Any solution for this?

Anybody else having touch issues with this 12.1 build? It keeps registering a touch & hold for just a single touch. I tried adjusting the touch & hold length in settings > accessibility but it didn't fix anything.

No, I haven't had any problems from this 6/10/2015 12.1
Build. When I flash a new build,I wipe internal storage and wait 15min from flashing ROM. Everything works fine,battery life is really good.
