I posted about this about two weeks ago here. It's only on the new build, the initial build is fine. The only fix there I see would be for the developers to build the ROM with the old wifi drivers, something I find improbable since just about every CM10 ROM here is based on Quarx's work.
[ROM][JB] Taki_jeden_rom (11.06.2013) based on Slim Bean (Aroma Installer)
- Thread starter taki__jeden
- Start date
I installed the latest build today and already had 3 random reboots. The ROM is fast but these random reboots are not good.
I don't quite know why are new drivers so important that Quarx won't rollback, but I'm having this issue in any network I use. It's very frustrating.
I remember reading someone who posted a modified kernel with the old drivers compiled, for CM10, but now I can't find that post... (dang!)
Apart of that I'm having some battery drops (attached image) I think I wasn't having in the latest CM10 builds.
And also, some random reboots occasionally. I'll try to carefully logcat after the next reboot so maybe I'll find what's the trouble.
Overall, I like this rom pretty much. So customizable :good:

Well if you ever do find the post with that modified kernel, please share. Although I have never seen anything related to that; the only person doing any kernel related development so far is Blechd0se with his JellyX kernel, but I don't ever recall him posting a kernel with old drivers.I don't quite know why are new drivers so important that Quarx won't rollback, but I'm having this issue in any network I use.

Well, for starters, performance with the new drivers on the phone is a lot better than with the old drivers. On my network it sometimes takes about 2 - 3 seconds for my phone to connect, something that happens almost instantly with the new drivers; then there's the issue with WiFi Direct, maybe it doesn't work with the old drivers.
Aside from that, I don't see the point in the new drivers, considering that even if you do have a 72mbps connection, it's only useful if you do a lot of streaming to/from another device in your internal network, since not everyone has an internet connection faster than that. Then again, it would be interesting to see how many people actually use WiFi Direct.
And finally, the old drivers worked fine, at least for me they did. And even though a lot of people say they don't have any WiFi jamming problems, I'm pretty sure it's just that they can't get far away enough from their router with their phone and a laptop and actually test properly.
Now, regarding your battery problems, your phone is clearly doing something in the background while the screen is off. You should probably check your battery stats and/or use BBS to find out why your phone is active while the screen is off.
I'm on the previous build of this ROM, since I don't really see anything new that would make me want to upgrade, and because that ROM does in fact have the jamming problem. Regardless, I can tell you that on the previous build I get 2 days of battery life easy. I just recharged my battery but I will post back a screenshot next time it's close to depletion.
So today I tried installing the ROM
I did everything mentioned on the first page (installation guide)
I got it to boot up
But nothing worked
Home button
Browser
Play store
N nothing worked
N also when I went to login to my Google account it would log in and when it comes to the backup screen
It says Google account manager has stopped
N well nothing works

The installation guide doesn't mention wiping system, so you should try that; I always to. Secondly, you should try again regardless. On one of the times when I tried flashing the latest build it started acting up (mostly boot taking too long). I tried a second time a few days later and then it worked perfectly fine, no FCs nor anything out of the ordinary.
Had installed the Last version of this rom ( 11.06.2013 ) . It was unusable for me because the keyboard kept crashing which did not allow me to do anything . In terms of speed it was really fast . Also i did a full wipe from Cm 10.1 before I switched . Rebooting Wiping dalvik/cache , wiping app data did not help . Also in system rom space i had over 30 mb in terms of free space because i had selected minimal options and installed minimal gapps . mb 525 green lens here if it helps.
Well, there's your problem, you don't need to flash gapps. OP clearly says "Gapps with Rom" in the changelog. That's also why you only have 30mb of free space. I have 94.13mb and I haven't removed absolutely anything from the original build.
@Antiga Prime Thank you , I didnt see that bit . Will flash again and report back . Any Slim bean add ons that you would recommend ?
Wouldn't know, I don't use any. I'm happy with the way it performs without any addons, init.d scripts, etc.
I installed the ROM thrice!
Will try again

Then flash any of these. Or create your own and replace the png files in the ROM, just respect the width/height of each file.
Reinstalled it after full flash it seems to be working fine . For some weird reason am not able to find the enable volume rocker wake up option under display . Any idea where it is ???

Yes it was a Blechd0se post from 14th June. I wasn't right, actually: it didn't have the old wifi drivers, but some tweak/fix that didn't work for anyone. You have actually commented that post too. It's under the CM10 4.2.2 thread.
I've installed BBS but I'm not finding anything weird but normal system operation. Just some whatsapp and browser (totally normal). I do control which apps are running in background, so it would have been strange. The batt is draining pretty fast. And sometimes the whole system get unresponsive for like 15 seconds, something with the memory or background network use. I didn't realize yet.
I think I'll try the 09.05.2013 version you're using. Hope it's not worse in other aspects. Should I restore my actual /data partition? I don't wanna lost all the stuff I did...
Thks :good:
Honestly, I wouldn't restore my /data partition, for some reason that always brings about unusual FCs or other bugs; and I would definitely do a /system wipe. Of course, it might still work, you never know. On the other hand, the first and usually the second charge always drain a bit faster for me, so I don't expect much from those initial charges.
I wouldn't know much about the latest build because I only used it for about 5 or 6 hours on a perfectly clean install, with no apps, when I was testing with the INI files for the new WiFi driver, but the one I'm on is pretty decent, and does everything I need, even GPS works; if you use it often enough I get fixes between 13 and 30 seconds.
Of course there are somethings that still bother me a bit, like:
1.- When someone calls it takes about a few seconds before it actually shows the name of the caller, which can be a pain.
2.- I don't like the fact that the search button is automatically configured to turn off the screen, but that is something you can fix.
3.- Logging is disabled by default, so you have to either delete the "S82logger" file that is in /system/etc/init.d, or comment out the only line that file has, and then reboot, if you want to use CatLog.
All in all, I usually have between 120 - 170 mb of ram, and never less than 90mb, but I guess everyone uses their phones differently.
Ok I'll follow your suggestions. The only thing I care about is those seconds before the call screen appears. It happened to me before in CM10, and sometimes in this build, but rarely. Maybe when the whole system is slow.
I think there are some memory leakage troubles with this last build, or sth like that. Sometimes I have to reboot, otherwise apps cannot load, or load REALLY slow.
"System" service normally uses 39 / 40 Mb in the ROM's I've been using. Here too, but when the system is slow / almost unresponsive, it goes up to 80 or 90 Mb which is too much. Never had System using that much memory. Every time the lag appears, I check that, and System is using that much memory. Maybe sometimes, when everything's fine, it does too. But never saw that yet.
Some time ago i tried to change the CPU settings through the bootmenu!
and now m stuck in s bootloop! i wiped cache and dalvik and now also set the settings to default still cant boot up any ideas?
