Works fine with the GT-I9300 too, V6 looks to be much better than V5, one can actually feel the phone being cooler to the touch. And yes, the Amoled screen looks better than I can recall. Both sharp and smooth at the same time :) Thanks for yet another Gapps :good:

Question after V6 install

Installed V6 per directions and I get the "Android is upgrading... Optimizing app" prompt after every reboot. CM11 with supersu updated to latest. Any ideas on why this is happening? TIA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
I've read optimizing apps on each reboot was normal with ART enabled. Yes I know it could be annoying especially when I'm testing new things and have to reboot my device every time. I'm not sure if theirs a fix but I'll keep my eyes open.

Thanks! Any chance this could have broken MMS in hangouts? I was using V4 without issue but as of the V6 install I cant get MMS to send at all. It could also be the Sprint network "upgrades".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
Hangouts working for me. I just sent a pic to my wife to test. And also got a text from the bank.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] qualitymove13:
Interesting. I went back to V5 and both MMS send/receive worked right away. Hopefully its just a coincidence. Thanks again for your help!

Will Dalvik use the enhancements?

I'm running 4.4.2 on my Note II (asop) with Dalvik so I can use xposed. The op states ART is enabled as default, since I'm using Dalvik instead of ART, will the spec-gapps enhancements still work?

thanks for the work. :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
Yes they should still work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] friedsonjm:
Yes, I'm using Dalvik on my N7, as Xposed is more important to me that ART. jf
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vikash0513:
Will this work on tab 2 7.0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
Should work. Works for the Nexus 7 tablets. It may work for yours. Suggest making a back up before you flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vikash0513:
It worked but i dont see see difference between stock play store and this version
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
There is no difference. This package is basically gapps with performance and graphic mods built in. If you want something like a blackout market or any other apps try team blackouts app in the playstore.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Alcolawl:
Installed this today after switching to ART. My phone absolutely crushed it's battery thanks to "Google Location Services" and "Media". My experience with ART was less than awesome so I switched back to Dalvik thinking it'd fix my problem. Nope. Had my phone plugged into my PC while playing a BF4 for two hours and I checked my phone at the end of the last round. It was boiling lava hot and had only charged 8%.

Considering that I'm back to using Dalvik I flashed Gapps from January 5th, 2014. Not sure why this is happening.. Will report back to see if my battery drain has been fixed. Early indicators lead me to say yes.

EDIT: Nope. I was wrong, even with the original Gapps flashed I encountered the same problem. Turns out clearing the cache of a few things took care of it. I apologize.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] randy.kopf@gmail.com:
Question is there any way to detect the state of ART?

Hi:

I installed the SPEC V6 GAPPS on CM11. Seems to be working well.

Question is there any way to detect the state of ART? That is to see how it's running and possibly see it's performance?

Thank you for a great job on the SPEC GAPPS!!!

Here's an article that may help you. http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...ormance-wont-blow-away-today-will-get-better/

It lists some tools you could use and comparative dalvik vs. art results.

Calendar

Hey guys, just flashed this over the GNex CM11 (latest stable build) mod and my Google Calendar despaired... if I try to bring through Google Search -- Google would crash.

How do I fix that?

EDIT:

Ohhh I just had to install it from Play... weird that it wasnt included.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kend0g:
Idk if you guys have checked but everything I have read says xposed is still NOT compatible with ART. If you install xposed and have ART enabled, xposed will revert you back to dalvik. So I would say to give your developer options a look real quick. Sorry thought ya would like to know that info.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] GrimV2:
I'm using CM 11 4.4.2 on my Razr Maxx HD with the latest Gapps from this thread and at first it worked fine until I noticed I was running dalvik in developer settings. I changed it to ART and then got stuck in a bootloop that wouldn't end even after multiple reboots. I then clean flashed my phone with CM 11 and the Gapps and I'm STILL stuck in a bootloop.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:

Sorry

Update here!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:
just flashed and have a couple of questions

this pack is

not

exclusive to galaxy note, right?

because i flashed on my galaxy s4 and everything seemed ok... but had 1 soft reboot and i'm not sure if it was my fault or because of something else

it starts the boot using ART, but we can change to dalvik if we want, right?

sorry if these questions were already answered

P.S. - the system definitely feels smoother than before. nice work!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
No not exclusive to Note 2. It's just my testing/backup device. Yes you should be able to return to dalvik runtime. Soft reboots could be caused by Art as it is still experimental on 4.4.2. Also Art is now built into most Kitkat roms nowadays and is no longer installed through gapps. Hence why previous gapps would cause bootloops. They're replacing Art files with outdated ones. 4.4.3 is just around the corner and Art should be more stable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:
thanks for the answers

can we trim down the zip or are there dependencies? i wanted to delete some of google stuff like maps, chrome, etc, because i use other apps for that.

does any of the mods included makes overclock to the cpu or to graphics? because in the 1st boot and while i was setting things up for the 1st time, the phone was reaaaally hot... i remember that i had the same situation when, in the past, i changed from dalvik to art - when the system is updating apps the device gets really hot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] John_wba:
Yea on my i9505 this package forces all cores online at max freq... Because of this I had to remove it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:
thanks for the heads up...

flashing KT kernel and using a custom profile seems to solve the problem... no more hot device
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] John_wba:
I've always used KT kernel and ktoon settings. But if you click on KT monitor app you will see that all cores are on full power... Basically something in these tweaks over rides KT settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
My cores seem to be running normal. Cm11 with SpecV7 on my Note2 is running smoother than my Note3 with TW stock KitKat. If only it had a1080p display. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Perry2547:
Holy Smokes. My phone is opening apps faster than the iPhone. And I don't have ART enabled.

I just flashed this only doing a dalvik wipe before.

Mind you, it says in developer options that it is still running dalvik. And I'm keeping it that way for now.

Is ART running and I just don't know about it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
May need to use V6 for Omni based roms. I got bootlooped on Dirty Unicorns. May have to make separate version for Cyanogen and Omni based roms. Will have to do some research. I'll also make a lite version of V7 with just Playstore and Mods when I have time. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
Tried V7 on Omni ROM. No bootloop just on Dirty Unicorns with Art enabled..hmm. SpecV8 and V8 Lite in testing. Both smaller than V7. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:
is there any special reason to make the pack with ART enabled from default?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DARKCHYLDX101:
None really. Just a preference. Having just about everything setup from first boot. From scripts, tweaks, having art enabled and so on helps reduce time for me to setup my device. It started as a personal gapps package for myself that didn't just include tweaks but also fixes for certain roms on the Galaxy Note. The fixes are no longer needed and Specs evolved to be more universal so I could use them on future devices.

On a happier note. I'm getting a Nexus 5 soon. It has a crack screen but I can repair it. Been wondering what the graphic mods would look like on an 1080p ips display. One more thing. Let me know how alpha is doing what you like and don't like and whats not working. Its been running fine for me. Good Day and Enjoy! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:
like previous releases, the pack brings an excellent performance to my device... but i feel some battery drainage and device gets a little hot...not too much, but still... i'll check if all the cores are running like in previous releases of your pack..

I think I've finally experience this running on a new build I was working on. All cores were locked at maximum frequency. I'll take a closer look at the scripts in init.d and buildprop.

Update:

I basically deleted all performance mods and some build prop tweaks. It didn't work.

So I tried going back to dalvik vm. Cores are running normally. Then I returned to Art. Still running normally. Give that a try and see if it helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] feelpt:

btw, you still planning to release a minimal version of the pack?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Personally, I find that Samsung's stock video player is a vast, vast improvement over any other stock player. True, it doesn't play everything you can throw at it but it is far more capable than say the HTC stock player, or the vanilla Android video player on the Nexus devices because the codec support with these is just shocking. Point being, as stock players go, Samsung's is probably the best - I certainly wouldn't call it rubbish, though YMMV.

I've not tried VLC for a while now, but last time I did (probably a year ago) I found it very poor, though I used to use Diceplayer and MX Player Pro a lot and always found them to be ok. These days, I usually use the Archos video player with the free codec pack when stock doesn't quite work for me, which isn't very often on my Note 3, but almost always when using my HTC One or Nexus devices (5 & 7).

Dave
