rom is awesome!!!

i am on the last version (cm-11-20131120-UNOFFICIAL-maguro) with gapps-kk-20131113 from dhacker

running on ART and everthing!!! (except the known rotation glitch) works perfectly :)

even Whatsapp works with ART now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
What's the difference between kk 20131119 gapps an kk 20131113 art gapps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcsww:
That's minor but I have that as well.

Anyone have Android Automatic Restore working?

My Play Store is not downloading my apps, nor restoring my personal dictionaries nor my wifi APs :(

I had the same issue with the old Paranoid 4.4 rom by BigBrother

But didn't have this issue with the 1st SlimKat build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MaddScientist:
i too likes the superuser that comes with the rom but viper4android dont work with it so i have to flash supersu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PlayfulGod:
I added a patch for that ;)

its been work fine for me. I want say perfect as its never worked perfect. lol

sure that viper4android even works with 4.4??? and whys it needed?? DSP has always worked for me. Then again I dont expect my phone to be a boombox. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bush911:
Thank you [MENTION=2999829]PlayfulGod[/MENTION] for the awesome work.

Can I install via TWRP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CADude:
Yes, I did. Make sure to have 2.6.3.1 or above.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bush911:
sorry ,double posts
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PlayfulGod:

Gapps Core 4.4 by Banks works with ART?

[Tarzanic English powered by Google Translator]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shriom_manerker:
btw whats the terminal command to check the gpu driver version ?

like that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
i believe it would be cat /proc/pvr/version
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
Hey folks, a quick question. Does Viber works with ART?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CADude:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shriom_manerker:
yup ! it works on 4.4 only lol dono why it didnt show this on 4.3. and we're still on 1.8 version for now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewcst:
i saw 2-3 CM11 unofficial rom in this forum, i'm using Juzz_'s one, what's the different actually?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
This command most DEFINITELY is NOT 4.4 specific lol

I tested it on the 4.3 ROM I am on ;)

Might have to do with certain things being disabled in ROM/kernel debugging for the one you tried it with, but no it isn't 4.4 only :D

And yeah, the 1.9 version you are looking for hasn't been 'done' yet. The graphics issue for WebView for fixed another way(and I dont think 1.9 would have fixed that anyways... but this is discussion for elsewhere)

Devs are for sure working on integrating what you were checking for, you can be certain we will know when it's been done :D tho don't expect miracles from it IMHO

Good:

Black boxes are gone.

Bad:

Seems a frame rate drop, though most went away when I got rid of the live wallpaper.

Does not recognize SIM card on some boots.

Thanks!

Apparently yes viber works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MaddScientist:
i use viper because it adds clarity and the convolver works just perfect not that there is any thing wrong with dsp and i have used it in the past but i prefer viper..and yea it does work with 4.4 ive been using it since i was on slim kat and earlier builds of this rom its fixed in 20/11/2013 build though..so awesome work and thanks for the glitch free rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shriom_manerker:
was on cm10.2, anyways all i want is optimizations ! if you fire up yahoo weather app and just scroll you can see the lag on 4.2+ roms (present even on 4.4) but if i tried this on 4.1.2 and it ran without lag ! it was smooth ! i couldnt believe it since an older anroid version could put proper use out of our sgx450 gpu compared to the newer versions. without doubt 4.1.2 will remain the best android version till date for the galaxy nexus. my best hope is that 1.9 ddk drivers will hopefully bring back the butter from 4.1.2

the lags occur in the first few minutes as the mediascanner is running. mine ran pretty smooth after about 30 minutes wheni switched back to live wallpaper.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
I found 2 little bugs/annoyances :

- Google tts force closes -> workaround: disabling it lets you fall back to pico tts

- Google sound search force closes -> and if i deactivate it it is still draining battery and it is shown as active all the time in the battery stats

But its possible that the apps dont work because ART is activated..

Cant log right now..but will do when i am at home

AS i said earlier...everything else works perfectly....battery life is awesome too...even with sound search bug

People put too much pressure on ART. it is extremely experimental, I wouldn't say a rom has bugs because certain apps are crashing on ART.

Wysłane z mojego Galaxy Nexus przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
thats not what i wanted to say ;) i just wanted people to see which bugs can appear when they use it like i do....if someone wants a "stable" experience then ART is the wrong choise^^

btw: i had the bugs mentioned above with dalvik too....and another thing i forgot: Superuser seems to work but it does not give root acces to apps...it always denies permission without even asking (also both on dalvik and ART)

its kind of a tradeoff: art is not 100% compatible with everything but as whatsapp works with it now(thanks god for that ;D ) and battery life seems so much better with it i will stay on ART :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
+1 for superuser bug on ART, try SuperSU, it's working fine

And talking about ART, I could only say AWESOME :D Can't believe it's still experimental!!!

I've been using this ROM on ART for a whole day now and my nexus is flying!!! Can't imagine this thing would ever work faster than that. With solved webview glitches and fixed whatsapp, I'm simply loving this!!

Thank you all devs to pull it off for gnex!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
thanks!! superSU did the job :) i'll try to fix the issues with google tts and sound search now....maybe there are things left of the dalvik installation or something like that

(which would explain why i have fc's of these 2 apps on dalvik as well)

[MENTION=1852653]RajatPatel[/MENTION] [MENTION=2234317]darkmansd[/MENTION]

So if I flash it on top of this rom it will work now? How? Because now I managed only to disable superuser too... Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PlayfulGod:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aswinrulez:
can i dirty flash this over 10.2?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
that was the first thing i tried^^ but i think that was or is a problem with ART.. superSU works fine

google tts and sound search driving me nuts though^^

[MENTION=1930009]aswinrulez[/MENTION]: you can...but i think its always better to wipe when using "unstable" versions

okay google TTS works now....here is what i did: 1. deleted the apk from /system/app/ 2. installed from playstore

// edit : same with sound search :D

everything works better than stock now lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Guys, I have everything set up and running great on the latest build, but flashed Slim gapps which don't play well with ART. Can I just flash PA gapps on top?

Nope.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
I would recommend you to use gapps in OP (1113) and then delete and reinstall apps that dont play well

Worked for me and it is the best Rom i have Seen in any device with Art enabled :D

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
No, I guess. If you have deodexed PA Gapps, then it won't work with ART. Download ART compatible Gapps by dhacker29 from OP. They are working fine. Or in case you wanna use PA Gapps, there is a odexed version available. Search for it.

For flashoholics like us, it's good to go with odexed (ART Compatible) Gapps as they work with both dalvik as well as ART.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] supermax:
Hello!

I am trying this rom and I feel very well.

I have a little problem in acrivating SERVICES in Settings -> Accessibility -> Services

When i click on a service to enable it I obtain only aother setting "window" recursively

Any suggestion?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
Assuming that you are asking about flashing SuperSU zip, the ans is "Yes it wil work". :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staud:
On my GNex Google Maps doesn't lock the position with the device-only GPS option unless I check the network position option. The location icon in the statusbar is shown in both cases.

GPS tester shows satellites. Anyone else missing a device-only position lock?

I'm on 20131120 build. Further info: Banks' Core 4.4 Gapps, ART, Mpokang 1080p kernel, Maps from Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vetala:
Ok I'm not new to this stuff but I've flashed the last zip, 1.75, ended up with no root.

I've disabled superuser first and then flashed the zip, ended up with no root.

It's like if I could only use superuser.

Where's my mistake?

Last CW11 unofficial, Dhacker's gapps, Last TWRP.

11/20 no black boxes!

Flashed the 11/20 build and wow, works like a charm! No more black boxes = daily driver status for me. One minor little grip though--the phone icon is not updated. Is there a way to fix this? Perhaps I can change it manually but I'm not sure how to do that.

Cheers to this dev!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ~Phil~:
Is there a chance to get fixed glichen on rotation and glitches on Screenshots soon? Cause i just want to flash the rom, if there are no bugs anymore.

Any other bugs except the rotation glitches and Screenshot glitches?

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I have the odexed version. My question was if I can flash the zip without a reset.

Edit: tried it anyway, and it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bopsch:
Nice work!

Everything seems to work fine for me, this ROM is now my daily driver.

Tested every Google App with ART, all are working except Sound Search (but hey, it's just a widget, Sound Search itself works) and Text-To-Speech (which I never use anyway), as well as Whatsapp, Nova Launcher and Facebook Messenger (all are working). The only app that does not work with ART so far is Titanium Backup, which is unfortunate, but hardly ROM-related.

Also I noticed some lags when installing apps from the Play Store.

The graphical glitches when auto-rotating (tested it shortly, I usually force portrait) and taking a screenshot (there are none in the actual screenshot, but on the picture one sees after having taken one) are barely noticeable. :)

Edit: I forgot to mention that I am on the 11/20 build and use dhacker's gapps (11/19)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gabboplano:
How did you change the dpi?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joytsay:
1.Root first using chainfire SuperSU v1.9

2.Install RE(Root Explorer)

3.Hit Mount R/W

4.Open build.prop and change density to 320:highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CADude:
Change the setting in SuperSU to ignore CM system root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Culex316:
The lag in installing apps in Google Play is normal under ART since each app essentially gets "compiled" upon installation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vetala:
Trying right now... and...

It worked. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bopsch:
Ah, okay, thought so as well. However, I experience similar lags when simply downloading something and I believe they were not that strong in 10.2... But after all, this is in a rather early stage of development, so lags are to be expected, aren't they? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thesebastian:
The ROM is working pretty well.

Performance imo:

> Dalvik: Performance is good, but one step back than 4.3

> ART: The performance is better than Dalvik, sometimes better than 4.3, sometimes equal or a worse (i.e.: recent apps button). I'll stick with ART.

Still needs a few optimizations. Sometimes the "Recent App" and "Home" buttons are delayed. (specially when you are switching from a heavier app, like chrome beta).

But it's totally usable as daily!

Weird. I used v1.65 and yet it's working fine. But I didn't touched Superuser before installing SuperSU.

It's posted just 2-3 posts ahead. I don't wanna sound rude, but care to read mate. Hope u understand.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kitaco:
I'm not even sure how you can compare this to 4.3. 4.3 was a bogged down slow bloated crash machine. 4.4 is blazing fast in every aspect and has turned my Gnex into a new monster.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vetala:
It's all right. Thanks to another user I find out that I needed to uncheck a flag on supersu. Thank you!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shinebar1001:
Same here. On the first try it worked, but on the second it didn't. First try was with Dalvik, second with ART - are you using the ART-GApps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adbFreedom:
You can try to flash this zip I just made for you, I say try because I am not running this build so I cannot test sorry. If you have an issue you can dirty flash the rom again to revert.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shriom_manerker:
it doesnt make any difference with ART ! its totally a placebo effect . i measured app launch speeds and delvik is actually 0.1-0.2 seconds faster than art.

if you dont mind using delvik as the runtime , you can flash the photosphere addon available by slimbean team and it works fine , bug if you use ART runtime, your gallery and the old camera app (supporting photosphere) will force close and wont work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sdobron:
Honestly think you're suffering a little placebo effect. It's not blazing fast, at least not until all the bugs are squashed and the ROM becomes better optimized.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Quite true to an extent. 4.4 is definitely faster, even more so with ART, but the alpha nature of these builds is bogging down the performance for now. If only Google ever cared about Gnex, we'd be a one big happy bunch, ever loyal customers and the likes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] distho:
Totally agree, so badly wish we got this update. Feels like when my HTC Hero got put in the legacy pile here at XDA. Anyhow, we must make due with what we got.

On that note, the ROM is stable and everything is working, the only issue for me is the flashing black squares that appear sometimes on web pages. But, I like it so I want to keep it on my phone for a while. I'll update if I see anything new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniil1410:
The squares are fixed in the last version. They were the only thing that kept me from upgrading.

P.S. Does this rom have reboots or SOD?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PlayfulGod:
I've not had any reboots or SOD's!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
It did reboot frantically when I tried to set my own colours with Trickster, and had PGM enabled. DIsabled the two one by one, and the problem was PGM. The kernel supports modules, but there's some issue with PGM, so I ended up disabling it. Been fine since then, except one random reboot.

If you ask me, fairly stable. Usable as a daily driver if you can take the risk of an apocalypse.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkmansd:
I don't think it's a placebo. Even if app launch speed is the same(which I don't believe and I don't think one can measure 0.1 second difference lol) scrolling for example is super fluid with art(maybe better garbage collector) and the biggest improvement is battery life for me.

After installation (which sucks battery) apps don't have to be compiled on every start with a JIT as with dalvik. So all in all I think there is a big improvement with battery life there. I never got almost 5 hours screen on time with dalvik (even on 4.4) and a 2000mah battery

I had one frozen screen today, which is nothing compared to the early november builds in which my phone rebooted (or better froze, I pulled the battery then) every 10 minutes or something like that...

Tried to reconstruct it, but failed - I thought it might have something to do with advanced reboot, bit apparently it didn't...

Can someone check hot spot tether? It connects but does not give me Internet access. If it works for others than it might be because I dirty flashed from last night's version. Everything else works so well though! :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bopsch:
You mean creating a WiFi-Hotspot with your phone? works for me, in fact I'm using it this very moment ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kisrita:
Thanks. Must be the dirty flash then causing the problem. I can create a hot spot, and my tablet sees it and connects to it, but I'm not getting Internet access on the tablet. :(

I put the sim in an old phone and it tethers to my tablet so it's not the tablet nor the provider.

I'll have to reflash the right way when I get home.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kitaco:
Just navigating around, is blazing fast. 4.3 was so slow, crashy, and unusable at times I have wanted to toss it out the car window or at the wall.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sd3993:
A random(but ultra rare) freeze, a battery pull and this is what happens :o

Haven't managed to reproduce it as of yet.

EDIT :- What i wanted to show was the graph right at THE END(on the right hand side). See the battery drop after the battery pull.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] migueldbr:
you are having major wakelocks, check your awake graph, it show as awake for half the time it has been on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sd3993:
No. The graph is fine. I was using some pretty CPU intensive tasks there. What i wanted to show was the graph right at THE END(on the right hand side). See the battery drop after the battery pull.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
That's exactly I was about to say man. ART feels smoother than dalvik, no matter what stats says.....I'm not boasting myself, but I kinda have natural ability to distinguish between the ROMs with minor performance differences in terms of user experience of course!! ;)

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 AM ----------

As you pull the battery from the slot, the battery terminals discharges any static charge present there, which results in some power loss from battery and gets reflected in your graph. But usually it's 5% for me. 10% at max. But this looks worrying!! Maybe battery degradation over the time is the reason, not the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andriodee:
The ROM is excellent, man. Thanks for this. There's one more thing that needs to be done, though: some parts of this ROM aren't properly themed. Like the "optimizing apps" or uninstalling apps screens – they're still rocking the jellybean theme. Then, of course, we have the dialer. Just a few things that need to be done to make this the perfect ROM. It's by far the most stable and usable, though. Definitely my daily driver! Thanks again, playboy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I'm using this now. No reboots at all.

But the phone seems laggy to me. As in transitions from app drawer to homescreen, opening a new app, etc. seems to be laggy. Am I alone?

I'm aware of that. I've had to pull battery on many builds of KitKat before and i even tried pulling the battery for testing after this event. But this massive hell of a drop never occurred again. That's why i mentioned that i couldn't reproduce it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tb5...:
installed the 11/20 rom + PA 4.4 gapps... everything went well.

?? how do you switch over to art though?

the rom is workin smooth as hell, snappy... im just missing some customization coming from pa3.992, but damn kitkat on the gnex the developers are incredible. once dpi control comes and some other stull this rom will be perfect... it's breathing new life into my gnex.

bless up to all who made it possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
Whatsapp is working fine on latest build. PlayfulGod merged the whatsapp fix into the build and it should work. Working fine for me.

In fact it's opposite for me. It has been faster than previous one. Tried switching between Dalvik and ART? I'm slowly becoming fan of ART ;)

how does one switch.

and it's smooth for me as well... handles open apps wonderfully as well, barely any lag at all... abhi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PlayfulGod:
yea most likely those app didnt need anything to make to the jump to 4.4 so they werent touched for now. Thats been the case for some things since 2.3. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RajatPatel:
Settings > Developers Options > select runtime > Choose ART or Dalvik

Keep in mind that in order to use ART, you need to flashed odexed gapps. Link's in OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AbhishekS:
I'm on ART. But still the entire ROM seems laggy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andriodee:
SlimKat seems to be following your lead in terms of fixes. They just fixed their graphical glitches. But whoever is developing that ROM has already themed everything accordingly (with the exception of the dialer [I wonder why no ROM replaces that hideous 4.3 dialer, for real. I've always hated the look of it]). Maybe you can ask him what he themed and how?
