Has anyone else on AT&T had a problem receiving mms? I've checked the apn settings on this thing for an hour and can't seem to force it to receive mms. argh...
When I first flashed this, I had problems receiving and sending mms until I chose a different APN settings.

Great great ROM. Best one I've ever had actually.

Only problems I have are the battery drain but I installed wakelock to check if its an app.
When I'm texting on messenger, mostly Facebook messenger on the Chat Heads version, the phone freezes up and then goes to lock screen after.
The phone also freezes up every now and then when I'm running it too much I guess, having too much apps open and switching back and forth and whatnot.
I've only had two random reboots and that happened while 'doing too much'
Also, I can't get Netflix to play, keeps force closing. Really don't want to switch to Art but will try it after I do some more research.

Will be flashing the latest nightly later today.

Voice issues with 5/3 and 5/4 everyone I call says it sounds like I'm in a tunnel and they can barely hear me. I went back to one of my only backups of 4/12 and it was fine again.

I flashed 4/28 and voice calls seem OK as well. Going to stay on this until someone can verify if there is a problem with the latest builds.

I flashed 5/8 last night, got a call from my wife, and we had trouble having a conversation. Cutting out and echoing on her end. Unusable.
Went back to 4/17, but on that one I get bluetooth abends after a call in my car. Will probably have to look elsewhere.

These sound like symptoms of the mic-swap issue that we just had in omni, and slim-i777 as well.
The symptoms were as you described (caller can hear you, but not loudly or clearly), and the issue was caused by a merge of "smdk4412: sound: update soc & codecs", pushed on or around May third.
For Omni and slim, the commit over-wrote a few mods written specifically to swap the bottom and rear microphones for the i777. Unfortunately I am unable to navigate pac-roms' gerrit well enough to find evidence of that commit, so this post is only speculation based on your description of the phone call issue.

RB kernel was a great workaround for Omni, but I read recently that it doesn't play well with pac?

Yes i did. It breaks things. Like SteveMurphy said, stick with PAC kernel. It's a good kernel :thumbup::)
Well, maybe the old versions of his kernel but I flashed it on the new Beta of PAC ROM and no issues so far.

See my screenie

Also anyone getting complete reboots from using any of these ROMs, it shuts down randomly and then shows "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen then boots PAC.

So you are running 05/14 and it went to beta. interesting. How are your voice calls?
I haven't been getting any reboots but I haven't gone past 4/28 as there were voice issues due to the above problem with the mic swap.

EDIT:
I just flashed 5/15 and voice is working normally. Mic swap issues seems to be resolved. Yes it looks like PAC is in Beta 1 now.

I get this weird problem where I'm using my phone with this ROM and suddenly whatever app I'm using will black out and seconds later freeze.

Anyone getting this or is it RB's kernel causing this?

Do not use a different kernel. Use only the stock one.

Alright. I'll let the next nightly fix this then. :thumbup:

Edit: that didn't help. My phone still blacks out then freezes when I'm using it. Any help???

Complete wipe? Kernel cleaning script?

Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA Free mobile app
For me, two ROM wipe scripts, PAC nightly then gapps and anymore extras I want to flash but I might come back to this ROM in nightly beta versions or wait till the Kit Kat PAC Full release is available.

You flash extras? Wonder if that is the issue? I haven't had any of the problems that you are having other than the occasional crash and split screen error.

I fixed the kernel issues with PACs kernel but it would slow down to a crawl and either freeze or slowly come out of the mega slow down.

But I don't think any of my extras cause problems which my addons are
Two beats audio zips
One Sony bravia v3 zip
And One NFC kk enabler zip
