I was using PA the full package (latest version) and on the newest hangouts. Every version of hangouts did it for me. It was so bad that the microphone was almost unusable so I went full stock for now. I have very few apps installed and they are all mainstream apps so I can't imagine it's that. I always do a clean flash, including wiping the SD card. I am just wondering if it could be the GAPPs package.

Very well could be since some of the gapps packages replace the AOSP keyboard with the Google keyboard. However, that varies based on what you're flashing (obviously). I've never had this issue though. I use PA Nano gapps regularly.

For some reason I can't sync my gmail calendars with the calendar app. When I go to select what to sync under my account, calendar isn't one of them. When I go and open up the calendar app, it asks me to log in, then says that it can't communicate with the servers. Anyone else having this issue?

Which Gapps are you using. That's what should determine whether calenda is one of your sync options, not the ROM. I have it, although I don't use Google calendar at all.

New stable can be found in OP! Enjoy!

I must be doing something wrong?
I can not disable the camera shutter clicking sound when I take a picture. I have disabled it in the sound menu but when I take a pic it makes a shutter clicking noise. Even after a reboot.
Any ideas?
BTW....I haven't been able to do this on many different builds. I am on the latest 8.0 build now.

Well not 24 hours later I get another crash, the first time using the speech to text feature. It is the AOSP keyboard from the DU GAPPs and the Google Voice Keyboard.
Do they not work well together?

I am in the same boat.
I'm not 100% sure because I almost always have my phone on vibrate bit I can't test at the moment.
I was under the impression that the shutter sound still functions normally with that unchecked. IE: makes a sound when the sound is on and won't make a sound on vibrate or silent.
I think that the setting removes the forced sound that you get even when the phone is silent.
If this is the case, you may have to just completely remove the sound file from the phone if you don't want to hear it when the ring volumes are turned up. I'm not sure how simple this is though as I don't know if it's baked into something that you can't remove or of it is its own file.

There is an app that works if you are rooted. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.akirilow.tool.cso&hl=en It will turn silence the shutter all the time.

I'm using the Banks standard gapps that was available from the download center. I'm going to reflash with the newest stable one and try a different gapps. Does the DU apps only come with the play store or does it have the extra stuff?

Guess there is an app for everything.......lol
Should have done a search. Not lazy, just a bit of a dimwit !
Many thanks for your help
I always use the PA stock gapps package. I'm not sure what all they include in that package. I imagine its minimal though as I know Josh personally uses pa micro gapps.
If you're looking for all the goodies I'd go with the pa stock package. It has everything that would come stock.

At first I thought the full gapps package was the only way to go since I didn't realize that you could download everything else from the play store, but since I've tried the minimal packages its worked quite nicely.
The latest update seemed to have fixed my calendar issue, but not my battery is getting slaughtered. Not sure if its an issue with the rom, or something running in the background I don't know about.
You can use the expanded desktop quick toggle to hide the status bar and nav bar. Swipe from top or bottom to show them.

That's interesting... Not sure if it makes a difference but I'm using the DU TBO Gapps and when I go into "/Settings/sound/" and uncheck the "Shutter Sound" check box it completely disables the camera shutter sound.
If I then recheck the box then the shutter sound is active again... Un-check the shutter sound check box and the sound is then disabled again.
I'm on the latest DU official 8.0 build as well.

Hmmmmm that is interesting. I am using the exact same Gapps you are and the tick under sound settings does nothing even after reboot.. One thing of note is , I am using the 7/30 version of the Gapps. Not really sure if that makes a difference? Which version do you use?
BTW............I downloaded the Camera Sound Settings APP from the play store as Biaviian recommended and it works 100%.

Settings works fine for me with DU 8.0 and TBO Gapps from 9/20 (about to flash 9/28).
