First Impressions - CM11 for Umi Zero

Strange, I run the test and I got 31412, without any freeze and reboot.

After trying "all" ROMs for UMI Zero I'm using the SuperLeggera. Until now It was the only ROM that works normally. After one month of use only two reboots on "iddle WIFI". With other ROMs including (!) EMUMI the UMI reboots no less than one time per day.
Perhaps with CM11 and Android 4.4.4 we have even a better behaviour. After 5 hours (I know it's too soon) the only strange thing is that I cannot change the default keyboard.
For now:
- No reboots
- Very Fast
- SmartCase works fine
- Antutu got 32097
Good Work. If I can help with specific tests let me know.

When restart the widget's won't load ?
....sorry, it work's, but widget's needs to be reinstalled. It not worked because I made restore from rootjoy.

No Reboots (Finally!)
The first Rom without reboot on wifi idle.
When the already identified bugs fixed, will have the best rom for umi zero(i guess)
Great job (again)

Best ROM?
Status After 5 days:
Reboots: OK (zero reboots!)
Bluetooth: Ok (connection to Moto 360, Car and notebook)
Gps: Not working
Video: don't record
Wifi: Ok
Very stable and fast. If gps and video recording can be fixed we'll have the better ROM for UMI ZERO, I think

Port to ZOPO ZP980+
Hello Arcatarc,
after trying several ports for MT6592-based phones for my ZP980+, I tried to port your ROM, as the specs for the UMI Zero are quite similar.
The only thing I did in a fist attempt was to change the kernel in the boot.img. After flashing the prepared ROM, the phone booted! Wifi and Bluetooth aren't working, but hey, it's a first step into the right direction!
I will try to fix more things by copying files from my stock ROM to the CM11-ROM at the weekend.
---
After all I managed to get wifi working. Bluetooth and GPS don't work up to now. Maybe there is some expert who knows what to do to make these things running.

Recommended Rom?
Arcatarc, what ROM you recommend? I'm still using yours CM11 but i need the Gps... revert to superleggera?

Hi all,
Any Update in CM11?
All features are working on superleggera without reboots?

I prefer much more an asop rom than superleggera style. Much more customitzation and options. But the second is working perfect atm. Do you recomend me to change? is cm11 stable?
how about battery? only getting 3h screen time max with superleggera and greenify.
I dont care gps because never use it. (btw in my superleggera it's not working)
thx

Battery
With CM11 the battery shows the correct values .
The battery temperature when the phone is "iddle" is 19º but when using some apps, for example browsing with chrome it reaches 30º.
These values are acceptable for the battery health?

CM 11 development stopped?
It means that CM 11 will not have further development? Switching back to "SuperLeggera"...

CM 11 for UMI it's the only ROM without the Reboot problem that's why I have great expectations.
Meanwhile I'll try the new EMUMI to check if the Reboot problem is resolved.

Any updates on the Cm11 for Umi Zero?

[ROM][Umi Zero ](UPDATE 18/05/15)Arcatarc's EMUmIZERO SUPERLEGGERA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/rom-arcatarcs-emumizero-superleggera-t3057275

Rom progress?
After 2 weeks with EMumi completa installed after the CM 11 with same usage I'll share some points:
CM11
No Reboots
Fast
Battery 12 hours
No GPS
EMumi
2 reboots
Fast
Battery 32 hours
GPS: Fast Fix, but lost position while driving
Better Camera
It is possible that the problems with CM11 will be difficult to resolve and UMI team seems to be lost with other ROMs with older problems...
For now I'll keep the EMumi completa. Thanks for the excellent work!!

About Cyanogenmod 11 for Umi Zero
Hello Arcatarc,
I tested the EMUIml update for Umi Zero. Do you plan to moderate CM11 for Umi Zero because of the issues? Even though I installed EMUI and it worked on Umi Zero comparing with graphic and light CM11 ROM, CM11 is much better and user friendly for daily usage.
On Emui even though I have tested and flashed with differend Basebands you have mentioned again my Network signal is too weak. It is not like that on CM11. I have strong signal i good 2G coverage and the 3G is more stable than on EMUI ROM.
The most furstrating issue of CM11 is battery drain, Proximity Sensor issue during call, Video Record (can't record). Everything works without lags and very soft on CM11. It is not like that on EMUI.
Is there any chance to take care for Update the CM11 for users like me?
Thank you

Favorite Jellybean ROMS

Which ROM do you feel works the best for your Vibrant? Of course this is a matter of opinion, which is exactly what I want to hear. I'm running CM 10.1.3 right now and enjoying it. At times it can feel a little bit sluggish but I don't know if it's the ROM or my phone. I'd also be interested in hearing about your experiences with battery life in each ROM. I've been thinking of trying CyanAOSP because it's less cluttered and I have a hunch it would be more snappy.
Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules, I just wanted a really recent thread comparing the strengths and weaknesses of all the recent Jellybean ROMs. This isn't a question thread, it's more of an opinion thread.
I'm using CM10.2 build date - 10/15 for a day now. Have no problems. Everything works fine, including GPS after ds. Battery drain is normal.

DS is DeepSleep. Its a state in which the phone uses minimal battery and thus the battery is saved.

If you mean the official CM 10.1.3, yes I tried it. It is stable and smooth. You can use it as a daily driver.

I just saw that you were using CyanAOSP. How would you compare it to CM 10.1.3 and 10.2?
Also, do you know where I can get the 1.75 ROM? I've heard the 2.0 has problems.
been running cyanaosp 2.0 since its release and its been fine beside a few random reboots, but im sure it was cause i had my device oc'd to high. this rom is perfect for me as i play alot of games.
Hi all,
New member of the forums, but I've been reading as much as I can about my Vibrant (Fascinate?) and I'm still kind of confused as to which model my phone really is. It's a Telus model sgh-t959d, but after flashing CyanAOSP 3.0.0 for the i9000, my phone info shows model GT-i9000. I understand there are similarities between these devices, but I was a little nervous about bricking my phone by flashing the wrong ROM. Well, it was a painless process that took less than 2 minutes! I upgraded from PassionICS, which was a good ROM, but kind of laggy. After a day of use, I can say CyanAOSP is much quicker, more refined and more fun to use. The customizations offered by Nova launcher are quite extensive and make it feel like a new phone. I highly recommend this ROM! Many thanks to the hard working devs!
Anybody have kernel recommendations to get more battery life out of CM 10.1 or 2?
CM
Im using CM 10.1.3 stable, think this is a best and stable ROM
I was using one of the CM 10.2 nightlies (10/25 specifically) for about a week before giving up on some serious battery drain and background android OS data usage issues... First time I ever exceeded my 5gig threshold pushing me down to slower speeds. Also USB data transfer simply stopped working after about a week... couldn't even mount via recovery.
Ultimately had to get new ROM files into my phone via the microSD/USB adapter and internally transferring to the internal directory.
That said, CM 10.2 itself is a very pleasant experience if you can avoid such issues - In hindsight I'd strongly suggest giving it a try but with a build that's known to be stable and without any such major issues if you intend to use it as a daily driver (the 10/15 build has been recommended more than once in my forum trawling). Lesson learned!
I made the switch last Saturday (6 days ago) to SlimBean Build 2 however, which is also based on 4.3.1. By comparison to my last experience, this has zero issues falling back to deep sleep, even after loading it down with all my favorite apps and sync settings. I've had one random reset to recovery in the middle of a phone call, and gps performance has been hit or miss so far, but otherwise there's a lot to like! Battery is back to respectable charging intervals and background data is in check. ROM itself is very zippy. Lock screen by comparison to CM 10.2 seems slightly sluggish to respond. I'll likely be sticking with this for a while.

that one perfect setup for your S2...

Hi all,
Just posted this thread to share my personal "perfect setup"... probably everyone has one of their own, at least I hope so.
This thread is not to start discussions on which ROM is better or faster or more stable, this thread is about the setup that works for you, that does what you want it to do without any headeaches or frustrations.
I've been flashing all kinds of ROMS over the lifespan of my S2 and always there is that one little thing that bothered me: sometimes bluetooth issues, sometimes GPS not working, sometimes random crashes, often battery life .... to a point where I give up and go back to familiar grounds.
I had again a "flashing-spree" recently, this time kitkat seduced me resulting into many hours of flashing, setting everything up again, trying another ROM and starting all over again and again small and/or bigger inconveniences made me return home : NeatROM lite v5.1 (yes android 4.1.2) with Apollo 4.11 kernel... never had a single crash, lag or thing that didn't work, and all with great battery life (I'm now at 50% battery, 8 hrs since unplugged, 2:30 hrs screen on time, 30 minutes worth of bluetooth calls, ...)
I'm sure there are many other perfect setup's out there, share yours!
cheers
B
Slimsaberkat 4.4.2 1st Rom and Revolution Rom Ux 2nd Rom dualboooted by Dorimanx. This is the best set up for me. Having custom 4.1.2 stock rom then latest 4.4.2 custom kitkat rom.
Dunno if this thread will last, but anyway here's mine.
CM 10.2 nightly + Dorimanx 9.43 with Hue 4.4 theme
Chameleon rom are beast fo me with apolo kernel no bug at all and great battery life

SlimKat currently,
camed from slimbean:good:
slimsaber 4.3.1 by fusionjack + dorimanx 10.43 latest beta.
ROM A gave me issue. Installed ROM B was perfect for me.. My friend installed ROM A has no issues.. We both are happy... Its better everyone try out different until it suits u well... U just gave title as Perfect setup instead of BEST ROM..
i'm now running 4.4.2 but i don't know why but i have no notify sounds and ringin tones to select dunno why :| need to reach 10 posts to write on the correct thread also
Im currently with SlimSaber, with their stock kernel (had plenty of issues every time i wanted to install a new one)
Feels pretty good to me, fast, plenty of features, good battery life (considering mine is not that well taken care of)
OmniROM
Up to the update on 9th Jan OmniROM has been great, battery performance improved massively since early ones and OTA updates built in!

[Q] Best KK ROM for Mi2S

Hi, I'm planning to try some KitKat ROM for my Mi2S. What you can recommend? It doesn't needs to be based on MIU, but it must be fast stable and battery safe.
I read good recommendations for MoKees ROM, but I want have more tips from you guys.
Thank you for any tips
Hello, Mokees Rom is a very good rom, with tones of features, but I prefer official CM11 from M1cha. It's not so "heavy" and for me it's ideal for daily use.
Hi, thanks for the tip. I'm currently on the MoKee, but I will probably test also official CM. MoKee is fine, but not so slight as I expected. I must say that old MIUI v5 was better.
Im using omni as daily. Personally I think micha's kernel is better than mokee one. The best thing is test the ROMs you might be interested and choose the best for your needs
I'm just testing latest sMIUI v6. I was fighting with some some settings ther, but finally I fixed most of the issues, so I will probably stay for some time with this ROM. Anyway the performance still to perfect as with MIUI v5.
what about battery usage?
battery usage seems to be fine. cannot say objectively, because my usage differs in last days, but its approx. 1-2 days. i'm still using, wifi, bt, gps, & data
Ihave tried many roms and I have to say that the pacman is so far the best cause is the one with most customizations. Love it.
Not sure how this thread lasted this long but.

Is this release capable of mobile data?
I've flashed last release and seems good enough. Mobile data doesn't work, though. Some occasional crashes, laggy UI, etc. Couldn't get the flashlight working. WiFi works great. CPU settings were absent. Battery life is good. Didn't sense any drainage.

SnapDragon CyanogenMod ROM: which one suggested as daily driver?

I have the opportunity to get a white i9505 with 16 GB RAM for €150.
I would like to understand if a rock stable CM style ROM is available or which one is the most appropriate when this features have priority:
battery running time
phone call quality and app stability
camera app stability and best snapshot quality
GPS signal quality / car navigation quality
overall stability
overall speed
I would like to have at least CM 11 (KitKat) and I did find those candidates (for comparison I also added a stock/CM mix):

Found some useful posts:
sh4z CM12.1, CM11, stock/modded, CM13, oCM12.1, oCM 12.1 a, b
Finatic downgrade CM12.1>CM11, KK is way better then LP or MM,
So it seems CM11 is the most solid and oCM12.1 also solid but not sure if my impressions are well for my requirements.
Any suggestion regarding the listed or other CM style ROM is appreciated. Thank you for your experience.
the xda philosophy is kinda try it and decide for yourself. or search each of those threads with the keyword "bug", the thing is even the exact same models have slightly different versions of the hardware so what works perfectly for one guy can be a nightmare for another.
The only way is to try for yourself.
All roms ran fine for me. It all depends on how you use your phone, really.
I'd say a good starting point would be Optimized CM13. Thanks to the custom kernel included, you can have performance and battery life, depending on what profile you have selected.
From my experience, CM11 usually promises more stability and battery life. I just got i9505 this morning and still testing but CM 12.1 build 20151117 doesn't seem so bad.
In my opinion CM12.1 Snapshot (2015-11-17) is the most Stable ROM for JFLTEXX.
I just got my S4 a few days ago (I paid 50€ ) and running JDC CM 12.1
It's awesome stable and if you install a 3rd party camera app it works just fine
Coming from a S2 witch was petty laggy and crashed quiet often this upgrade is awesome!
I had not even one crash, I'm experiencing no lag and it's really fast
GPS works great, outside it fixes in about 3 seconds
For a good battery review it's too early for me but so far I can't complain, got below 10% awake and in airplane more 0.2%/h loss
I really can recommend this ROM!
There is a more up to date version in the thread but it's not listed on the first page, it's from 25.02.2016 just look for it
Just a little feedback on Official Cm12.1 (CM 12.1 build 2015/11/17) - been using this as a daily driver for a few weeks now (using novalauncher for my homescreen).
Performance & battery has been generally fine - even with moderate use (wifi or mobile data constantly left enabled, plenty of screen-on time, lots of photos, frequent use of whatsapp & SMS, email etc - but not really anything particularly draining such as long trips with GPS, or extended media usage), I get a good 2 and a bit days from each charge...
I'm sure I'd find my battery taking more of a hit if I were using it as an MP3 player to/from work, or having to use GPS frequently, but for day-to-day usage, battery has been excellent.
The included camera is good - nothing special to report (which is a good thing imo). No bugs, no unexpected behavior for good or ill, and no need to change the camera app unless there's a specific need (for higher-end functions, etc..).
Nightclub, low-light photos have been acceptable, daytime "optimal circumstances" pics have been great.
My girlfriend's S5 (using Samsung-branded rom) camera is more annoying, taking longer to find focus, is more temperamental (sometimes will only find focus if flash is on) and more unpredictable in what the resulting image will look like.
I'm not a camera geek (unless we're talking film SLRs), but I prefer mine to hers.
I've tested the GPS a few times, from cold-start it's about as quick as my standalone tomtom unit (not enough difference for me to put them side by side to test), and definitely faster to locate my initial position than my Gal-S2 using stock rom.
No drop-outs yet, but I've only used it briefly for testing, I've not had to do any long distance trips yet.
Again, only my gut feeling, but if it had taken an inordinately long time to locate me, then I'd have done some further testing...
Stability has been wonderful - no reboots, no mysterious crashes, or hangs to date.
I did get an error when I first installed, because after flashing the rom I (foolishly) rebooted before flashing GAPPS (which I should have done *immediately* after flashing the rom before leaving recovery), but a quick factory wipe & reflash of GAPPS sorted this without even having to reflash the rom. Bonus.
The only annoying things I've found are;
A) Lack of USB mass-storage (UMS). This is intrinsic to android though, only going back to version (what? 4.2? 4.4? Something like that) would help as my understanding is that it is simply no longer supported as a whole, and not the fault of any specific rom.
There is a semi-hidden option to use UMS available when the device is already connected to your PC via cable, but so far this has been of little use as it still doesn't let me access the SD card like the old Mass Storage function used to.
B) USB OTG. Worked out of the box first time, but after that first use, my device no longer detected a USB OTG cable was connected.
To rectify this issue, I simply rooted the device, and used Chainfire's StickMount (or USB OTG helper, either app worked), and now USB OTG is again fully supported.
I can't give any constructive feedback on the other roms you suggested - I briefly tried Official CM13, but one of my "must have" apps (ACR - automatic call recorder) was not playing nicely with CM13, so I immediately switched to CM12.1, and the exact-same .apk now works flawlessly.
I can't say if it's to do with Marshmallow, the CM13 rom, or what, so that's only a tenuous, anecdotal report.
Anyway, hope this helps narrow it down for you - for me, CM12.1 has been perfect; Stable, good battery life, and no unexpected behavior - pretty much everything I want from a rom tbh...
First of all, thank you that you dont open a thread with something like that:"What best rom for s4". Nice to see that you search for infos in the forum before you open up an thread! My favourite is CM12.1 last nightly!
My experience with other ROMs:
CM13 Nightly Bluetooth, Laggy UI and Bad Performance compared to CM12.1
Optimized CM13 network change, no EDGE only HSDPA and LTE, for CM12.1 performance you need "extreme performance" profile, touch issues
CM12.1 Snapshot/Nightly Sometime call issues (testing a solution)
Opzimized CM12.1 Snap Cam crash, huge BT issues with some drives, not best performance, touch issues
CM11 Nightly App crash in the background, than phone gets hot and takes down the battery in some hours.
Why CM12.1?
-Good batterylife
-Great performance (with l speed about 38.000P at AnTuTu)
-BT works to 99%
-no freeze and reboot in over 700h uptime
-smooth IU
-charging up to 1900mAh
-with faster GPS you get your postition in seconds
Thank you very much to all for your comments and statements. They help a lot and I think I will focus on CM12.1 variants testing.
I have a further question in my head: I wonder how CM12.1 is compared to the stock ROM regarding the features I care most for?

I've tested all ROMs from above and I have to say one thing - CM11 is the best ROM for daily usage. Without any custom kernels. And I will be use CM11 while it got updates.

OMEGA TW Custom ROM (4.4.2) with Aroma Installer can be lightweight ROM without most of bloatware. I've test it and havn't any BT issues.

Personally, I like my Optimised CM 12.1
even if some points are really annoying me, and I might go back to TW...
- Screen is brighter
- Phone volume is louder
Are those problems present in CM 11? Can't remember.
Thanks

CM13: It ROCKS! NO Bugs or so ever, smooth experience, snappy camera, (BTW I'm using CAMERA FV-5, which give you better image quality in settings, and advanced controlle), GOOD battery life, call and signal quality is perfect, gps and sensonrs work fine.
SUPER Wizcyan: In the beginning it seemed fine, until I installed all my apps, the the crapy lag beggined. NOT recommended.
CM12.1: SAME AS 13 BUT!: I prefer cm13 because it it more devolopped and has better software, even if it's still nightly builds.
HERE Begins your personal experience, Choose what YOU want and prefer, this is only MY review for this roms.
