I just installed v4. Will let you know if any problems occur :)

In the meantime, I had a question -- older Android versions had a setting for custom Date & time formatting and I see this setting is mostly gone in newer versions and the OS pulls the Date & time settings for the language chosen in Language & input. I personally like to use the ISO date format but it isn't available. Any chance this could be added or do you know of any application that does custom Date & time formatting?

umh...I don't know if is possible to implement, I see if I can find some information.
I looked at the market and I found no app for this setting

Thanks for you update.

The V4 is working like a charm, very smooth. I think it is because of the linaro toolchain .
Can you also do more optimization on the kernel? for example can you backport the ZRAM feature to the 3.4 kernel from higher base line of the kernel.

if you want to try the kernel with zram support download and flash this zip (without wipe)

cm12.1_zramkernel.zip
zram is disabled by default but you can enable with trickster mod app

So did I and found nothing. Don't bother too much, it's not crucial, it was just a question -- you know much more about the inner workings of Android than anyone else I can contact. Thanks! :)

Also, a report: the fix for the bright LED didn't completely take: I got it a few hours ago while reading Reddit through the Relay app. I can't reliably reproduce it, though.

for those who have the touch bug try with this kernel
from the first tests seems to work
(flash without wipe)

I think you just have enabled the ZRAM option in the Makefile, I have the experiance of using zram in other phone(Samsung Galaxy S2) I know the current zram code has some unstable issues, anyway I will testing the kernel first and feedback to you the results.

== edit after installed the new kernel ===
Allegato 148231

I have enabled 384MB zram , now it is working , I can have more apps in the cache most of the apps can stay in the ram and reduced much more loading time, Now the phone has better user experiance than before, but I need to test more time to see the stablity.

zram is already present in codeaurora kernel, I added the lz4 support (for better compress/uncompress speed) and enabled

ehehe nice :)

Paolo! In V4... I observed performance gains. AnTuTu outstanding results 45858 and 21811 issued AnTuTu HTML5 test.
Thank you for your excellent work.

I also want to tell about the malfunction LED illumination range, if the charge is less than 14%. The circle blinks very dim light. Side buttons are lit at the same time at full brightness. It looks undignified. Moreover, not found possible to adjust the frequency range of the pulsations during charging. in CM12 was previously a function (not on your build).

Thanks to you, I can enjoy the new Android and Material Design style.

The zram code has a lot of upgrade after kernel 3.4, in the codeaurora the code for the MSM89X4 TAG is stopped at 2013-11-20.

The TAG list

But the zram driver has been upgrade much since it has been promoted out of staging. more stable I think. If you can backport that part I think we can get better porformance and gain more stablity while using the zram in the next release.

so far I have tested the zram kernel for several hours now, it looks fine, no reboot or crash issues.

Thanks Paolo! Your last firmware is very stable!
Can you add to firmware auto call recording, the same as in YIOS?

after 24 hours running, the zram kernel looks good, no problem has been found until now.

I added a file to enable the zram : /system/etc/init.d/65zram

#!/system/bin/sh
#
######################
# script made by securecrt
######################
#
#
# resetting zram
echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset
#
# setting zram size to 384 mb
echo 402653184 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
#
# making zram swapable
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
#
# starting swap on zram
swapon /dev/block/zram0
#
# setting swappiness to 60
#echo 60 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

# done

Thank you Paolo for V5 Release!

I do not think that the cm12.1 has this feature

Hi,
here is my problem with the Roma.
I do not know if this is due to the passage v5 because it seems to me that I had no problems with the v2.

I have a lot of enormously 4g see the same at all.
i still question marks on the network icons, and I have more data connections.
Yet everything is set and everything worked well before.
Best regards

you have tried to change the preferred network type ?
yes, you can try with a full wipe but before this you can also try with V4 release

yes of course i have tried with different network type but no change.
OK i have tried the V4. Can I put the V4 on V5 for test or i must full install V4.
thks

Try to flash over the v5, if still not work reflash with a full wipe

I installed the v5 with a full wipe.
The problem are solve I think.
And I have a problem with a watch too (garmin Fenix 3) who function now.
So it's good for the moment.

Yesterday I encountered the similar issue, My 4G can't work at all , the data only stay in the 2G. But after reboot the phone it works back to normal.
I can't make sure is it the CM problem or the Radio part firmware issues.
