Could your install an apk in the build? Cuz I try to install an app it always said "An error was detected. The operation was unsuccessul"

Yes i have a lot of Apps installed, (first screenshot) the only app that not Working is a WIFI TV Remote. (TVisted) also Screen cast is not Working and at the Statusbar the Battery icon is not changing if i choose "Text" or so (second Screenshot) that's all "bugs" that i found until now, but still at Testing this Awesome ROM :good:

I have the cast bug since the first alpha release. Also cm sources isn't fully implemented , so you will see broken things. that's why battery cannot be changed. But I think someone else fix (added) that in cm sources starting Sep 21.

bugs I've encountered so far:
1) Battery can't be changed to text, circle etc.
2) Storage permission (I think) in external sdcard
3) sometimes cannot transfer files through bluetooth (Haven't checked with the new build)
4) cannot screen record with the pre-installed screen recorder (I don't know about the third party apps)
5) show arrow keys while typing doesn't work (Settings > Buttons > Show arrow keys while typing)
6) the screen color calibrator doesnt save your custom adjustments
7) cant add new custom notification light

Firstly, the mod works really great for an alpha! Thank you for turning the old V into an android 7 phone!

Found some things not working as well.
1) Battery can't be changed to text, circle etc.
--> I was able to set it within the System UI tuner.
2) Storage permission (I think) in external sdcard
--> My card did not work with the 20160919 build, with the 20160923 it does now.
3) I cannot capture a video. It does seem to record a second and then turns recording off without message...
4) Sometimes the camera starts up with a white screen and freezes. Cannot make out the steps for reproduction.

Do you write change history for alphas? Would be cool to know what changed.

It's in Q&A thread, Adrian explained everything in details

Don't flash SuperSU, superSU have some issues with Sony FOTA kernel and with SElinux. Use privacy guard instead:
Go to settings > developer options > Root access > Apps and ADB.

@Adrian DC
Here's the full log for Cast bug when trying to mirror to a DLNA TV. And also I know that camcorder is broken for many cm14 devices, but I included that in LogCat. I'm running the latest build 28 September

I have another question. Is a fm radio available with cm14 for the LT25i? Not an internet radio, but an app that uses the built in fm receiver. Thanks!

So, I think the only problem in the rom is from the resize_userdata file for CM 14 .

@ Dn.Thanujaya91 @Adrian DC after 2 days of work and flashing roms i tried to install stock rom then CM12.1 then CM 13 then CM 14, but the problem is from resize_datauser from CM 14 becouse i tried CM 13 working perfectly but when i flash CM 14 can't record videos so plz try to edit on CM 14 resize_datauser ..

for now i'll stay on CM 13 untill you fix the storage problem.

@Tahax09: Non-working video recording has absolutely nothing to do with resize_userdata and Unification.
If you get 12GB userdata and working internal storage, then unification is fine.

The video recording is an issue common to most devices running Nougat for now
and it's stated in the FEATURES / ISSUES in the first posts so please refer to that.

    New 14.1 build coming soon, with various improvements and working camcorder.

    As always, DO NOT forget to upgrade GApps to 7.1 too.

    PS: Build restarted because camcorder commits were missing somehow.

    Could the alternate Launcher talks be in the Q&A thread
    rather than in the development thread please? Thank you.
