I noticed it as well, but there are more switches missing:

How to switch them off? Just tapping on the sync arrows causes a new sychronisation.

Hi,

I had same problem as flawless with Google Play Services (which freezes and reboots the device), and I did as he wrote :

I was able to resolve the Google Play Services issue by setting the device to airplane mode on startup, and quickly accessing the Privacy Guard and manually allowing GPS access to the phone.

It worked fine for few hours. But then I shutdowned my Swift for the night, and now it's same **** with my lockscreen (my phone is encrypted) : it's freezing and rebooting again and again.
I can type my password, but when I try to validate it the touch does not respond, the device freezes for few seconds and then it reboots.
Thanks for your help !

I had the same problem - couldn't type pin because the whole screen just freezes ...
Unfortunately to regain control of my wilefox I did factory reset and lost all my photos (now kicking myself ...).
I have googled and found some web pages which says that using i.e. testdisk I could (possibly) recover some pictures.
But first I need to copy image of internal filesystem using adb. But to be able to do that I need to root my phone.
But when I root my phone I lose all my data again.
Is it catch 22 ?
What could I do in that situation ?

I lost all my apps and data which were on external SD. Would have been nice to have a heads up there.

At least 1 per 2 days a random reboot, even after factory reset and without 3rd party apps installed.

Lots of useful settings/options I used that were not ported.

Battery life gone to hell in which wifi drained the battery in under 4 hours with screen off. This was caused by the automatically enabled wifi& Bluetooth scanning function hidden in the location settings.
Still, after disabling this could barely make it through a day whereas with 12.1 I had no issues.

Used the cyngn forums for the different issues, no support whatsoever.

Reverted back to 12.1 and staying there and never buying cyanogen again...

I suggest you to reflash the entire ROM from https://cyngn.com/support, not just the OTA. I did that too and have no problems at all, everything is working, no reboots etc..

I don't think a factory reset will return the firmware version, it will just reset the settings and wipe the data.
