Sigh so I'm one of the unlucky. I had a reboot also with tapatalk, and in tapatalk you can notice some graphical artifacts. Battery life is very good, almost the same as slimbean.

I think the most annoying bug is the reboot with the dialer... Cross fingers for the next release... Definitely love this slimkat on my gnex

Does that bug with the dialer happen randomly or is there every time you try to open the phone app??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcomesa:
It happens randomly fortunately

I think it would be better to happen every time, because it could be easier to track the problem..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scarcry:
it's unfortunate that none of the slim devs use maguro as their daily driver anymore. I'm also running 1.7 weekly. stock kernel. GEL launcher and have switched to ART since I feel the phone being a bit more smooth compared to dalvik. Most of my random reboots have come from using the phone app and trying to bring an app to the foreground from recents.

Today I also got a reboot while navigating via Google Maps. I am sorry but I was not able to collect logs. I use Mpokang superram kernel, my settings as described in the signature and the Weekly 1.7 beta.

Also I noticed that setting my notification light to always on does not work. Is this just me or do you others notice that too?

After a thorough use of 1.7 Beta i had these issues...

-- Stutter in music playback while screen off.

-- Play music widget lag's after a couple of tracks (doesn't show the proper track name shows the older one).

-- First glitch ever from 1.3->1.7 @ Dialer (a reboot was necessary), never happened again (yest).

Unfortunately the MX still has the stutter on our device. Only the 4.0.x to 4.1 it doesn't .

I'm not currently using the play music widget so can't confirm that behaviour but will use it now.

This is kernel related.Change timer_rate in governor settings to 15 000,should be better.Fancy has similar issue for me.Best kernel for this purpose is Tiny for me,no music shutters when screen off.I believe,that its related to linux update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
I'm running Hyper with RAB 1024 + Row. Is it sampling rate (There's no timer rate in Hyper, sorry if i had missed it in anyways :confused:) ??

And are you sure that's a kernel side effect ??

Thanks mate :good: !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sajty:
Hyper governor doesnt have to has timer_rate.Try to change governor to interactive,change timer_rate to 15 000 and report back.For me,this change solved almost all shutters.

Dumb question, I'm curious about Art and I would enable it...so I go to develop settings and select ART runtime instead Davilk...but hold on...third part app, such as whatsapp or runtastic maybe they are not ART compatible so what would happen? Can I eneable it anyway? And I read I must leave Davilk as default runtime , but I cannot find where select this option...would you suggest ART? Does it affect fluidity or battery life?

I flashed Team SLim Gapps...are they ok with ART using?

I was about to post the stability of version 1.6 beta and upgraded to 1.7. The 1.6 never crashed to me.

Glitches and reboots are back. While using Swiftkey keyboard or entering in ROM settings.

Turning back to v1.6 stability...

By the way, the SlimCenter is not informing the upgrade from 1.6 to 1.7.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
But i think the 1.7 is faster over 1.6 :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdppdp:
Yeah. Same here. And I do have less glitches and reboots (1, max 2 per day). And freezes and reboots now just appear when opening an app (before I had all kinds of action before reboot).

No reboots, occasional stuttering, dolphin crashed once, store crashed couple of times, no concerns. Great work devs. Quick question, whenever I connect or disconnect Bluetooth, Google music app starts playing. Is this a new feature or a bug. How to disable that. Please advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
AFAIK not a feature. I haven't actually heard of this before.

Does it happen on a clean install?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hitechchef:
Yes. Clean install. I have to admit though I am on mpokang. But I was facing same on stock kernel as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
With no other apps installed? You know just a clean install with Play Music and it still happens?

Nothing comes up in logcat, it is blank. But I tried some other things and came to this.

When I connected my bluetooth headset to talk, it never started music app. However, when I connected my car bluetooth, this happened. On reading the car radio manual, it connects to phone on 2 levels...a. as a phone and b. as a media device. So I disabled the 2nd option and the app did not start by itself. Seems this is a new development. If I connect my phone as a media device to my car radio, it automatically initiates the google music app. However all other music apps remain disabled. All is well now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Nobody is answering nothing about this. Is there a way I could help? How?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I haven't looked at the changes so I don't however I'll ask Kufi when I'm back home.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] binlalo:
This is so weird, I haven't had any reboots since I moved to this room a month ago or so in any of the versions. 1.7 is faster but I do have more glitches (quite frequents in Tapatalk and once in calendar).

And SwiftKey hasn't crashed to me but it is a bit laggy and after I send a message it takes a while until it starts recognizing input again so it a little annoying (it usually doesn't detect the first letter of the sentence and I have to go back).

And of course music lag when locking the screen remains.

exactly the same behaviour here ( have just tested with my car).

However, i also checked this with PA 3.99 and there the behaviour is different : media player does only start in case you launch it, otherwise it doesnt at all even if connected to the car. So either this has changed in 4.4 or it is a bug.

Do you want me to paste logs ?

Rebooting starting to be very annoying...at least 3/4 per days...In your opinion can I try to flash the 1.6 version without wiping all the user data?

I read someone enabled ART then re enable Dalvik and get bugs fixed...anyone experience that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I've made a full backup with the free Oandbackup.

Wiped cache/dalvik/data and go for 1.7 beta.

Until now, stable. Although I wouldn't be for help on what was wrong.

v1.6 was very stable and the problems, for me, come on upgrade to v1.7.

I won't do the downgrade. I would backup, wipe (including data), flash new, restore.

How long does it take to rebuild ART after flashing the ROM?

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Well, I think so. I have clean flashed v1.7 beta and configurated all apps, without a single reboot.

Although, when I come from dirty flash v1.6, the reboots are very common.

As you can see in my signature, you can use RomSwitch and have your first ROM as it is, while you test SlimKat as 2nd :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Well it depends on your apps, but it takes about 12-15 minutes vs 1-3 minutes with dalvik, but it's worth it. Also odex your ROM.

And sorry my ignorance, but you will need to do this at each Rom flash? :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmxmyt:
yes, you have to wipe cache-dalvik cache. so on every flash it does it again. takes loong time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Well, no more each day nightly flash than...

But if you dirty flash, without wiping, I believe it won't need to rebuild it all over again, am I wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmxmyt:
im afraid it does it anyway, i think on dirty flash somethings changing, even rom scripts may wipe the cache. i tried without wiping but it does it again.

As per instructions, just clean flashed 1.8 on maguro with the AIO 4.4.1 gapps.

Not going to immediately switch to ART as I did with 1.6 and 1.7 but will let the ROM settle with Dalvik for a while.

I did immediately switch on TRDS though :D

Hopefully we'll see no (at least much less) random reboots on 1.8 and also no (or at least much fewer) graphical glitches.

Again thanks for the great work Slim devs pushing this update out before the holidays.

Mpokang Question

Hey guys,

I tried to flash SuperRAM with Mpokang kernel and rebooted but it got stuck at bootanimation and never went to the homescreen for a solid 15 mins. So i decided to revert back to 1.7 for the moment.

Does this mean that SuperRAM doesn't work with SlimKat? O.o

What variation of Mpokang should I be using then???

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
No, it works for sure. Really not a problem with SuperSu. You can also add it as a system app and it will survive even the OTA Slim upgrades.

Can the developers help us with some info?

1. Which are the origin of the graphic glitches? Kernel? Specific apps? Dalvik x ART? Slim ROM specific?

2. Is this part of the code something Slim specific, or, in other words, can't the code be "compared" with CM which does not have these issues at all?

3. Can we help debugging it? How?

Well... Seems I'm not alone.

I have the same experience as the others are posting. Version 1.7 was quite stable, not problems at all.

Now, with 1.9, parts os the screen get black, some parts get colored like 8 bits pixels of the past... Then everything goes away and things return to normal. Then, come back again. Of course relating to multitasking but, mostly for me, when at the Settings pages of the ROM.

I use CM 11.2 in this device and, like I said before and others are saying the same, it does not have any graphic glitch at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thagringo:
i just gave omnimetal a go. Clean installed and there the experience was more or less like 1.9. Lots of reboots.

looking into their gerrit i came across this -> https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/1881/ which to me looks like the same as the previous link.

Lets see if this fixes the reboots there.

Maybe someone more talented than me could just apply that patch on top of 1.9 and see if it makes a difference ?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] solidsatras:
After using SlimBean as my rock stable daily driver for months, I decided yesterday to give the new 1.9 SlimKat build a whirl.

So I backed up everything and wiped my SD card completely to start entirely fresh.

One little hiccup occurred during the first run:

Pico TTS had some kind of problem. Normally I don´t use it, so doesn´t really bother me.

But I thought it is a weird thing to happen during the very first setup run, so I mention it.

I really like the new SlimKat rom. Found a lot of little details that impressed me or are just handy.

It was kind of funny for myself to see how dependable I had become of the Pie-control feature.

Even after almost two days I still try to control my phone by swiping in :cyclops:

But I´m sure it will find its way back into the slim rom.

As far as could see Profiles also aren´t available at the moment. The overview isn´t up-to-date so maybe it just moved somewhere else in the settings.

Thats also one very convenient feature I used heavily under SlimBean.

Almost everything else in my pattern of use (phone calls, texting, surfing, vnc-remote, light gaming) works.

Although I had two 'reboots' while browsing/posting pictures with QuickPic. Both times I had too remove the battery to start again. I will try to

reproduce and log it.

I really appreciate all the hard work you guys are doing in developing this great rom.

Merry Christmas too all of you.

I asked Kufi if he could give a comment on this since I'm not very comfortable with the technical questions.

However AFAIK most of problems come down to the missing drivers.

About what's causing the problems we have currently absolutely no idea. We use all the commits that the other groups use.

Means in short we're a bit out of ideas.

The logs only show the same problem but never give a hint.
