[Nexus 4 Android Development] Arhtard:
had stock nexus with 4.3 until I read this thread. copied "sdcard contents" to my computer, unlocked bootloader, installed cwm, wiped, rebooted, flashed 4.4 nexus 5 port, flashed su. installed apps from play and the 4.3 mms app. while copying my "sdcard contents" back to the phone, it hangs and errors out with a force close on android.process.media and won't let me copy back to the phone. I have tried 4 different computers and still no luck. same results with art and dalvik.

any suggestions? this rom is sweet, but if I can't get all my music, pictures and documents back on the phone i'm forced to go back to 4.3.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sub1287:
Lol this is on every page.

People seem to have lots of problems and those people I'm willing to bet where dirty flashing or restoring old system data. I tried to flash over the first KK build to come out and I didn't even have quick settings.:eek:

To avoid issues I recommend clean flashing even from another 4.4 version.

I'm almost like that for the most part but no charges in between this will be my second charge on 4.4 which I'm about to take off the charger now.

I've been playing Giant Boulder of Death for almost a hour and I got around 2 hrs 50 on Wi-Fi/3G.

I'd say I was on Wi-Fi for the majority I usually forget to turn it off. Also using Google music streaming a decent amount.

As for LTE some Roms I can get it inside my house and others I can only get it outside or in other areas, this is the former. I'll see how LTE is once I head to work later.

As it seems though this is only wave one of 4.4 for us until official and we can't really judge battery life as a whole in just 1-2 days.

wiped cache, dalvik and factory reset - fresh install, nothing else installed and not signed into google yet - still force closes. am I the only one that can't transfer media back to the phone?

[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Objective Review

First of all, this ROM is an excellent port given that it's in the earliest stage.

Stability

Yes, it's stable. As a matter of fact, very stable. I have never encountered any force closes whatsoever. If the instructions in the OP are followed, there shouldn't be any problem at all. Everything works except for the LED notification and a little unstable bluetooth connection as it disconnects sometimes for no reason. If LED is necessary, one can use Lightflow.

Speed

Given its status, it's surprisingly fast especially in the opening of apps. But let's not exaggerate here, it's not as super smooth or super fast as others claim. It is simply not true. Even using ART over Dalvik and using Interactive as governor via Trickster Mod does not offer a significant improvement in speed, though it helps a bit. Moving around the interface, notably in the app drawer can be a little laggy and the speed is inconsistent, oftentimes fast, sometimes slow.

Battery and RAM Usage

Battery seems on par with stock 4.3 ROM. However, RAM usage is greatly improved. On 4.3, the free RAM on my Nexus 4 borders at 900MB to 1GB. Running the same sets of apps in 4.4, free RAM borders at 1.3GB. Really good.

Whether you should try or not

For all it's worth, Kitkat is amazing. If you want to experience it now, don't waste time though you may be coming back to your previous ROM after a few hours or maybe not, depending on whether an inconsistent experience is what you prefer over a much more fluid 4.3 ROM.

This port is very compelling, it doesn't want me to leave it, but in the end I decided to go back to 4.3 stock in preparation of the real 4.4. update. But believe me, this port is very compelling I'm sure a lot will make this as their driver until the real thing arrives. It's that stable. The choice is yours, it's Android after all.

Cheers!

Yeah. I uninstalled the camera.apk and reinstalled it and all is there now. Strange.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] moizsami:
Hey..to the people who have installed 4.4..

Does screen recording work? As I saw it as one of the features of KitKat..Or is this also exclusive to Nexus 5??
[Nexus 4 Android Development] JPOKeefe:
Wow my LTE speeds are way faster on this ROM
[Nexus 4 Android Development] romitkin:
Maybe you have been using some 4.3.1 based ROM before? Because they have some connection speed issues.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] JPOKeefe:
Well yeah that and 4.3 but those were the only versions available. Anyway before I got like 10 down and 4 up and this is what I just got..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] the1dynasty:
in case anyone cares (probably not, except those that are having issues or have not flashed this yet) i took these two videos via ADB and the command for screenrecording that's built into 4.4 :)

No problem here with adaway.

It is there, yes. You can't manually hide the bars, apps must make a request to enter the full screen mode.

Not many of them have the capability yet but you can try out the feature by either opening a book in play books or going to the KitKat grid style easter egg.

If you're running the same version of any rom you can usually just do a "dirty update", which means you shouldn't have to start again. I'm on the PA version though to be honest.
