CMW with KitKat releases

Do I need to get the new Nevergone's recovery or will my old official CMW flash KitKat releases just fine?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sharptv:
You can use the latest 4ext recovery for flashing KK and its gapps. Read below
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kéno40:
You can keep your old recovery, but the best for me would be to flash the 4EXT recovery to format your partition to ext4

Guys..... In flinny's cm11 alpha2 ART works.... Thanks to flinny.

You people might have already tried, i just wanted to informed, because someone asked me earlier about it.

But theres a slight delay on opening each app for the first time after switching from DALVIK to ART.

com.media.process has stopped working pops up.

First time when you switch from Dalvik to Art, first boot will take a long time. Please remember.

But the main thing is that, atleast the basic idea of Google to introduce ART in android4.4 works.

ART refers to Android RunTime.

Which inturn is meant to make your device as snappy as iphone, by generating machine codes when apps are installed, instead of generating while the apps are opened everytime.

So, ill just play around and let you all know about it.

Thanks...

I still got CWM-Recovery v5.0.2.7, but I used SuperWipeG2. I am already on EXT4. What are the advantages in updating to 6.0.4.5?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DerNetzreporter:
here are my experiences with this great alpha2 ROM, I have only installed 10-15 apps right now.

A few things which are not perfect yet:

- phone/dialer app is not reacting really fast. The ringtone starts but the screen doesnt turn on or just remains black, only the softkeys light up.

- Browser slow (already mentioned), I use right now firefox, this works ok.

- using the Bild.de app, picture galleries within an article doesnt show the pictures, when I open the slideshow within the app. Only the text below them is shown.

- Launcher3 is missing the remove X, uninstall and app-info buttons, the function itself works only the symbols are missing (already mentioned)

- missing some tweaks (or I cant find them): brightness-control with sliding the statusbar, flashlight on lockscreen by pressing a softkey e.g. home-button.

- camera-key not working (already mentioned)

- a strange thing or is this a android thing? when I am deactivating "lock" shortcut (a lock with a square in the backround) and I restart my phone, then it doesnt shows the SIM-unlock screen (the phone starts direct but is not connected with the mobile-provider-service. I need to turn "lock" on, and then the sim-pin-screen and the unlock screen came up.

- mounts2sd says my device is S-On protected but when I boot /vol- + power it says s-off...

last but not least, whats with all the developer tweaks, background apps, hw-overlays, 4x msaa, ksm? are they still needed or the best for this ROM or are they not important anymore?

If a few things are improved and fixed, I thing this ROM is in 2-3 builds an excellent one and I can start to install all my 200 loved apps. Great work flinny and all the other CM-developers, please continue your work.

I'm using SuperwipeG2+ext4 so I guess I'm all set with ext4. No need to change my recovery for that.

Voodoo OTA for 4.4 ? or unroot prog

I used Voodoo OTA a few times on 4.2 but evidently it no longer works on 4.3/4.4.

Did some searches and couldn't find anything so figured i'd ask and see if anyone knows of a way, either through a on device app, toolkit, or anything to do a temp unroot.

Back up xbin?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] riahc3:
I think it should be shown on OP but oh well:

CM 11.0 Alpha 2 changelog:

Added Trackpad wake/unlock support back in on Vision

Fixed sensors on Vision

Maybe made GPS better.. or possibly broke it even more completely :D

Camera/gallery should work this time.

Gesture typing should now work again.

Synced with CM obviously....

What was DeviceSettings you should now see in the Apps menu called Andromadus (big A still the icon for it) I'm not particularly liking the idea but it does mean we don't have to fork CM's settings to add support for DeviceSettings back in....

Users reporting bugs:

- GPS (no satellites could be found - tried GPS reset etc. with no further luck)

- Android Browser crashes on many web sites - using firefox or opera as alternative works for me quite well.

- screen lock is appearing from time to time even when working (i.e. wiping to read in a firefox page).

- logcat / dmesg wrote regarding the GPS that loc api service could not be connected / used (stopfix()) - same error happens when browser is crashing - so the browser problem seems to be related to the location service provider too.

- Audio is not forwarding to the Bluetooth device even if connected (and the equalizer indicating that audio is forwarded to Bluetooth).

Its getting there but for me the browser and GPS are show stoppers :(

Good work though :)

Hello and thank you to Flinny (and NeverGone\RU).

I've installed alpha2 after a full wipe and mostly everything works (including GPS from my tests yesterday).

I've noticed 2 things:

* In landscape it is impossible to remove apps from homescreen (or uninstall apps from drawer) as the delete (and uninstall) targets that are supposed to appear on homescreen are above what can be reached (no issue in portrait)

* Since I did a full wipe I have reinstalled and reconfigured manualy the systems apps (mail, clok, sms, ...) and restored using Titanium for the rest... But have fallen on 2 apps (XDA & Crazy snowboard) that don't reinstall (they do download) and give me an " unknown error code while installing application: '-24' ". Unfortunately googling has lead nowhere... So I was wondering if anyone else is seeing this or if anyone knows how to fix this.

Regards
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sp1980:
For me α2 works very good.

GPS is working for me. (before flashing I always use the efs wipe tool)

The only additional bug I can add to the list is the torch. It stops shining when the screen goes black.

Overall this ROM works very fast compared to cm10.1, and feels quite stable for this phase.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] anpho:
I had the "unknown error code while installing application" error also. the fix was to go with root explorer to data/data/ and delete the folder of the application that couldn't be installed. and after that it installed just fine. I hope it does the job for you too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
Anybody else experiencing problems with the stock browser? It loads pages very slowly whether I use WiFi or 3g. Apologies if this was mentioned before.

Thanks flinny, you and nevergone are heroes for keeping the vision alive a kicking, XDA should have like a Nobel Peace Prize for dev's like the two of you, we can call it the Neversaydie Award or something like that, lol.

Yes the force is strong with me today, hehe.

Ok, now that I have the right thread: I'm not sure if anyone has posted this in this thread yet, so if someone did then please let me know and I'll simply edit this post. This is the stock KitKat launcher from the Nexus 5 if there is anyone out there wanting to use it. It runs smoothly, even with Google Now enabled (Also runs on 4.2 Jellybean and upwards). All you have to do is either download it straight from your phone or put it on your sd card from your computer or whatnot, and install it like a regular app.

You did it right. I have no random reboots, here. Whatever runs, runs very stable. A bad flash or bad download could be a cause. So, the checksum should match. Sometimes a dirty flash, with or without a fresh re-download, will sort things out.

Also, cleaning battery terminals will fix random reboots. I've had this problem before. Cheers

+ When getting internet connection ( network or wifi ) the status bar does not change collor to show that has already synched with google servers.

None of the problems is critical for me so I'm keeping alfa 2.

if anyone knows a work around will be appreciated.

I just had to little problems 1 due to restauration on business calendar so no problem.

And tonight, after a long airplane mode, wifi didn't want to run. I just had to reboot and it seems fine.

Runs good for me.

Not sur I have a precise GPS localization, but it see where I am.

GPS test gives me around 40 feets accuracy near the window here. Not bad.

Will see on a sport tracker or navigation if it's good and stable.

NB : I used the TopNTP app to choose config GPS.

I didn't have try phone calls.

Seeing the WiFi issue as well - all KK builds I have tried showed up with it eventually (sometimes took a few days/cycles).

ART crashes the camera, otherwise other things seems to function, but as it puts the media process into crash loop I had to revert to Dalvik.

I've used 4ext touch recovery, flashed SuperWipeG2+ext4.zip first than alpha3 ROM, than official CM gapps. Rebooted and after that everything works and brilliantly. It's amazing and beautiful.

Tried Nova so far and few apps. Everything worked flawlessly.
