Compared with Slimkat Beta 1.6 I have found this slightly laggy. Player stops. When on one occasion i found i was unable to hear sounds like dial tone and ringtone, I reverted to Slimkat 12/12 , beta 1.6. Looks like compiling with linaro sabermod toolkit has introduced some bugs that are not there in the parent ROM.

How long does it boot with ART enabled? I flashed the pa_gapps because i downloaded them few days ago and my internet isn´t fast :D

And now it´s booting over a half hour? Normal or incompatible gapps?

Thanks :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
its around 4~6 min with ART enabled ma8:)So in ur case its not normal, try the PA_Modular_Mini_gapps -26112013 and see as its compatible with ART :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ironic:
Okay, i downloaded the pa_gapps with 275mb because they should be ART compatible :D

Now i flashed Slim_AIO.gapps.4.4.1 Let´s try this :)

Everything works, fast and stable for now. But after reboot i still see 'Use Dalvik' instead 'Use ART' in Developers options.

May someone check in own device, maybe little bug?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vrwmiaris1:
I was facing the same issue but after few reboots and a little search I realised that an app that can't Use ART to work, automatically switches to dalvik, like few posts before [MENTION=4865573]089man[/MENTION] posted that one of the apps is xposed. I'm almost a day with slimkat and everything runs good and I don't have any reason to turn back slimbean. Tnx FJ

Hi,

On 12/14 i don't have sound an ringtones on setting only hangout sounds available :/

Also on Art user apps take more space with only 82 userapps (no big games) i have only 200/2000mo available.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bytes2000:
I had some weird behaviour with 12/14 and its stock kernel, here is my experience:

1) Installed 12/14 build

2) switched to ART ( it took about 20+ mins because it was "optimizing the android applications" ) -- about 200 apps from small to medium.

-- during the optimization I remember ART was incompatible with Xposed framework, so as soon as it finished I changed runtime to dalvik

3) Switched back to Dalvik

3) Then I noticed supersu was missing, so I flashed the proper Update-Supersu--180 zip file (via Recovery) --restarted after the recovery mode

5) WTF, several apps were missing this time (Wanted to mention those apps were bought). I tried to install them via Play store and I got an "unknown isntallation error -24" blah blah

-- I Also noticed 20+ MB appeared inside lost.dir (some files got corrupted) -- I cleared the directory

-- In order to install the missing apps I had to delete the directories for those apps inside /data/data/

-- ALSO: About 80% of the apps lost its data, it was something like a partial wipe data. :( so I had to re-configure some apps.

Additional notes, I'm not moving any apps to SD since I did the re-partitioning trick and there's enough space.

After re-installing and re-configuring those apps everything looks normal again.

How can we speedup file transfer between usb2.0 pc and phone?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
no clue...

it is normal that art uses more spaces for apps.

art is an experimental phase, so expects weird behavior.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
it looks like art is still using the term dalvik-cache. it still gets created in art mode with approx. double amount of size as in dalvik mode. that's why your data partition free space is less than dalvik mode. so if you wipe cache+dalvik cache like usual, art needs to optimize the apps again.

[MENTION=4427817]bytes2000[/MENTION]: just tried switched back to dalvik mode from art and all apps are still running fine without data lost. just make a tb backup next time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
next build, the art won't be chatty about garbage collection (gc) stuff. :p

so your logcat won't be spammed by art. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:

I found something weird...

When I go to storage the sdcard process is started. On the storage app the status is always "calculating"... This takes a HUGE chunk of the battery off (about 1% per 2-3 min) and processor works full time at 1200.

Of course heating is there also.

I am on 12/14 on Art with stock kernel.

Can someone reproduce this on their sgs2 to confirm!? For me this is third time.

I kill all processes with process manager from play store and all returns to normal.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Mediascanner is started... it then reads all your storage to figure out what is apps, media, data, pictures etc etc...

If you have a large number of files or you have a "corrupt" media file somewhere (most likely a "bad" meta data tag)... mediascanner is likely freaking out and getting stuck...

Check the wakelocks/processes with BetterBatteryStats to confirm that it is mediascanner... if so. you'll need to try to isolate the "bad" media files and remove them or fix the meta data (most likely id3 tags in mp3s, but could be bad EXIF data in pictures)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] johnny208:
Thank you HCP!

I was thinking of making a FULL format of my memory (phone's memory that is :) )

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
art is working on 12/14, but not on 12/12. booting takes time (3-5 minutes) until you see the 'optimizing apps'. it looks indeed as a bootloop, but it is not. depends on how many apps you have, you need to wait another 15-30 minutes while optimizing apps.

there is barely updates, should i just change the build.prop and release it? joking...:p:D

i have barely time to update slimkat...i'll see what could be updated for 4.3.1 next week since i'll take free time until at the end of the year.

Hi folks, thought I could share my experience with latest build :)

So far I am not impressed with ART, since I have flashed 4.4 only to try that out. I am sure that my device booted with ART, but I don't see any improvement regarding speed and smoothness, because I am experiencing delays between taping and app icon and interface showing up. I have 3-4 seconds delay on some apps, on some 2, but in general even when actually using an app I do not see difference, sometimes it's even slower than Dalvik. I have tried wipping cache and Dalvik and letting optimization run again and still nothing.

One thing is weird though, Facebook app was the slowest, and as of this morning it is opening as soon as I tap it ! :)

If I manage to get it to work better I will continue to use it, if not I am going back to SlimSaber 4.3.1 since it's unbeatable :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] himsin:
Latest update of titanium is working fine with both dalvik and ART :good:

Try to use it for a day or two. First launch of apps may show a little lag as it creates ART cache for that app, after everything settles down, you will definetly notice improvements :fingers-crossed:

it will turn off the screen if you wait a little bit longer. :)

i also notice this since kitkat, somehow the screen-off function is not initialized fast enough by power button after booting to the home screen.

you'll easily notice this if you are using art which takes time to cool down the system after booting.

Hi,

Version of the calculator have change? Before it was possible to go down to see the calculation history. Now it is no longer possible.

Also missing MusicFX.apk (no menu to select the audio equalizer in settings).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
the calculator in 4.4 could be older than the 4.3.1 one as in 4.3.1 i'm using cm calculator which has more updates compared to slimroms one.

the musicfx is being replaced by dspmanager by default. in 4.3.1, the musicfx is available in minimal gapps.

i think the music effects is not yet implemented in 4.4, that's why the menu is missing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Epsil:
On 4.3.1 if I remove MusicFX, the audio menu is no longer available although dspmanager is present. may be the same on 4.4.2 ?

I'll try installing musixfx 4.3.1 on 4.4.2

Ok....I installed yesterday and had a few minor problems..Deepsleep and a laggy art ..I swapped about a few times last night between art and dalvik and I really couldnt see what the fuss was about..In the end restored my trusty 4.3.1 with dori cos I needed a reliable phone this morning for work.

So when I got home I did a full wipe and started again...Well after setting it all up Its now running superb....And art I now see what the people are saying..Its now deep sleeping fine extremely smooth and pages are opening very quick..A nice few inverted apps and the baby is looking well cool..

art needs time until the system is cooling down after reboot. that is probably the reason you don't see deep sleep.

full wipe. make sure you read op. you need kitkat compatible recovery.

even you don't wipe dalvik cache, if the framework base gets updated, the dalvik cache needs to be recreated again.

best rom

This is the best ROM I have used so far, it is incredibly fast! After turning off Google location the battery seems to be not draining so fast.I have tried to use ART instead of Dalvik but apps take twice as much time to open, however, really there is no need for ART as this ROM is sooooooo fast and soooo stable. Thank you for you work!

The only thing I've noticed is that quality of icons isn't so good, it might be because of the DPI the ROM uses. I've tried different launcher and icon packs but still the same.
