Root CM12.1 Unofficial Beta

So I was able to get LTE to work using the 6/8 build, but after about 2 days I was no longer able to get it to connect. 3g is broken as well. Any suggestions as to what might have changed? I am currenty upgrading to the latest release (6/23) so we will see if anything changes. Looking forward to the snapchat fix. Thanks Bad Mofo
 
Has anyone flashed 6-23 I heard snapchat and vine works now. But I couldn't get LTE/3G up and ruining. If anybody can tell me how the ROMs running or LTE/ 3g up thanks. And Also thanks Bad for the hardwork on this rom

I'm running it right now and LTE is working for me. Also, there is still the green tint on the rear facing camera.

And does anybody have the problem were if you turn off your WiFi you can't get LTE/3G straight away? Doesn't have a fix for this
 
LTE seems to connect almost instantly with the 6/23 update. I'm still messing around and trying things out. But it seems pretty kosher so far.
 
Videos in the browser won't play and twitter videos play only audio with a white background. And music player lags especially when you turn the screen off. Anybody experiencing these problems?

I experience the problem with the twitter videos i assume that since the dev has a fix for snapchat the fix will work for twitter also. Just haft to be patient until its released.
 
We already know video playback is buggy, especially with H264/265. That's a given... I haven't used Google Music yet to see if it lags. I know on the last build, the controls on the lock screen were finicky.

In terms of Snapchat, it's hit and miss on videos. Some work, some don't. Especially in Stories. That could be a combination of encryption and codecs not playing nice together. So people, keep patient. It's still in Beta, so not everything will work. Providing feedback helps devs improve upon it though, so don't let up!
 
Well I've been knowing a constant thing with Snapchat. When I go to people stories, videos will play if they have an android. On the other hand, if that person has a iPhone it won't play. Has anyone experienced this or am I just crazy? I don't know if it's gonna help but I thought you guys should know so you guys can see for yourselves.

HEY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS. IF YOU DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW HOW TO FIX THE VIDEO PLAYBACK ISSUES, IT IS CAUSE BY LPA AUDI DECODING. Basically if you use "Root App Delete," from the play store you can delete DSP Manager, the current audio manager in this ROM. After you do that, go to the play store and install Viper4Android. It will be the first one on top. After you install it, open the app and when it asks to choose what driver want, choose the top most driver, (Extreme High Quality) I think. Then it will tell you it is going to disable LPA decoding. So far this is the only work around I know of to get rid of the LPA decoding. I'm sure there is a more efficient way. But as far as I know that is how I did it. There is just one small issue. You can only watch videos on chrome in low quality, but snapchat, etc will work.
Would this work for us?

use a youtube alternative like viral https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Mata.YTplayer&hl=en to play in higher resolutions. as far as other video problems, remember this is only beta and the 6-23 build was really just a test build. Thats why I didnt post it. If you want something a little more stable for now, try the blisspop rom. Or jump in the game and use the sources available to build. Not being rude, but there is too many posts on here, with basically the same problem.
BTW should have a real update later in the day tommorrow...
