[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
For those of you who are enjoying your time using the Mpokang1080p kernel, I highly recommend you try out SuperRam. Not sure if the battery takes a noticeable hit between the two, but the performance on SuperRam has been infinitely better. I wanted to try out the 1080p kernel and had to flash over it in less than 5 minutes because it felt like a downgrade, comparatively.

Also, so far no complaints with the latest "fixed" build having dirty flashed from the 11-28 build. Smooth sailing!

Additionally, I'd like to point out that I did not see a huge different switching from Dalvik to ART. I feel like this may have something to do with how smooth the Linaro builds already are... the switch between the two might not even be worth your time, in my humble opinion (especially if you're using that SuperRam kernel).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Could be? works fine for me without the google dialer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
Hmm, OK. Not a big deal, just wondering. I like having this dialer enough to not worry that much about that setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw, I see commits on aospa about adding Halo back but they are a doozy lol...Not sure how exactly i could cherry pick them to work

The main issue is they use pa_strings and pa_arrays which are specific to aospa, cm has cm_strings and cm_arrays

That small name change means I would have to manually add all 4000+ lines of code :eek:

But good news, cm merged the circle battery icon so that should be in next build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neilrl79:
Don't do it, halo sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blacklight1025:
I personally would love to see halo on this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Okay, you may dislike halo but that comment is quite rude. Halo is insanely beneficial to those that like expanded desktop and the extra screen real estate it brings. To claim something that took peoples hard work to create sucks based on your personal opinion is ridiculous. I have nothing but respect for the time and effort the pa team has put into all of their original and innovative applications. Halo paired with the new immersive mode will be one of the most helpful and amazing evolutions in android 4.4 once released.

Please, show a little respect and just say "I don't like halo" rather than it sucks, because that couldn't be further from the truth.

Is anyone else having problems with apps trying to access the camera? When I open the camera app it works 50% of the time, but other apps like snapchat give the error that they can't reach the camera. Been having this problem since the 11/28 linaro ROM.

Having trouble setting up Viper.... I have it installed, In the Viper4Android thread, for setting up, it says, "2. Use Normal Mode and select V4A FX in Settings>Sound>Music Effects." I do not have the option for Music Effects in Settings/Sound... Am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schnob:
I was just about to post on the same topic. I can't get the driver to install.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Are you both using supersu instead of the built in superuser?

supersu always seems to work much better, I just keep superuser since some people prefer it since its open sourced
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
I'm running into an issue with vzwapnservice has stopped.

It's persisting across 11.30, clean; 12.2, dirty; and 12.2, clean, with market restore of all apps.

On 11.30 and 12.2 dirty, it would pop up, when I made or received calls. This time, it popped up, when I tried to do an initial login to my verizon app, and is persisting across reboot, without me opening the app again.

Anyone else seeing this?

It's happening on both dalvik and art
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sheetzie03:
SuperRam tho, has video playback issues. So if you watch YouTube a lot, could be a deal breaker, it is for me unfortunately.

---------- Post added at 02:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 AM ----------

I see it only when opening my Verizon app. But I just select OK, and move on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Same here. It doesn't seen to have any performance effect. But I thought I'd post about it to see if it was specific to me (maybe an app issue) or if it was happening to multiple people
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Has anyone tested it on other cm builds or on other 4.4 builds at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elliot2112:
Oh no bud, I mean it's fricken awesome. I did run into a little snafu with superuser but all good now. I'm using superSU.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
I haven't seen it on FML it on mbq's build. But I was only on those for a day or two. I'll flash a couple of different ROMs tomorrow, and see if I can duplicate
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nalanotae:
Loving this ROM thought I was going to have to go back to an old version of android because of a few bugs but looks like they were fixed from what I can tell.

This makes my night... Thank you gravity box. And thank you metal spring for the wonderful kit kat experience, I am truly blown away with this update by Google. These linaro enhancements accompanied by the mpo super ram is definitely the smoothest my nexus has ever ran. Amazing. Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sheetzie03:
Would love to run gravity box but can't on art. Also, with mpo super ram, the video playback others have also experienced is a big problem for me when watching Youtube
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neilrl79:
You're right, I should have said something like, "I wouldn't bother working on fixing all that code for a feature, that in my experience, can become invasive to users who don't want to use it by continually turning itself back on." The lack of a simple check box in the settings menu to turn it on and off, at least in PA3.99, seemed to be a huge oversight, in my opinion.

Saying "halo sucks" to me is the same thing as saying "The Flyers suck" being that I'm a Penguins fan. Sorry to have offended you and the developers of halo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sheetzie03:
Pens bro!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thenewguy821:
Using supersu, I got the drivers to install, I just don't have the option to change effects in settings/sound.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Yeah, finally got to test this...

I have no idea why it doesnt show up in settings, but if you use a music app that lets you open the equalizer options (poweramp with direct voice control off and musicfx button on and long press the musicfx button or maybe google music?) it will show a popup of which eq to use, just select viper4android and hit the always option to set it as the default

That would be the same as choosing it from the settings/sound
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thenewguy821:
You did it again metalspring.... That did the trick (worked through Google play music settings, for anyone else curious about this).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DevVorteX:
I don't remember if I posted details here or in another thread, but just wanted to give a quick update about my 3g problem.

I called verizon last night, hoping for some kind of early upgrade, but that didn't work :). I tried to tell them that I was getting data drops all the time. They wanted me to switch to the edge program, I said hell no.

Ok, so, they are sending me a new sim, but, they did what I always figure is a BS move, and said they pushed out some update from their end to my phone, and I would have to turn my phone off for 2 minutes to "accept" it.

I did what they said (a few hours later), just for the hell of it, and amazingly, I no longer have any problem going from 4g to 3g. (PRL version didn't change btw)

I'm stunned. I'll be keeping an eye on it, but now I don't even know if I want to put in the new sim when it arrives.

Ok, enough about me. If anyone else has the problem where 3g won't connect, it can't hurt to give them a call, tell them you are having data drops, and you've done a factory reset already to try and remedy it. You may want this http://img.talkandroid.com/uploads/2013/02/Android_4.2.2_Update_Galaxy_Nexus.png in case they ask you to give version numbers and stuff (I don't think they'll help if they know your rooted on an unofficial Kitkat rom)

metalspring, You're rom is amazing so far, I'm loving the speed. I wish I had time to help you out with some dev work, but I just can't commit to anything, especially now around the holidays. Keep up the great work!

PS: is your source up on git? One thing I'd love to see back, and would help if I have time, is 180 degree rotation. With the headphone jack and usb on the bottom of the phone, I always have it upside down in my cup holder in the car...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fluey18:
Had time to grab a logcat when I'm trying to use Bluetooth in my car. I did find out that as Lon as I don't hit "OK" when it says that Bluetooth has stopped responding it will continue to play through my car speakers and work just fine. Can't use my phone though for anything else though because it won't let me passed the error screen.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxOzpa-9fxNQOHlQRFloa1ZhNGs/edit?usp=sharing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Did you check to make sure it works on other cm 11 builds?

I havent done anything with bluetooth in this so if its broken, its either a cflag causing the issue or its a cm issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fluey18:
It has not worked for me on any 4.4 build. I did just find out that if i sync my device to bluetooth and do not allow it to search my contacts then everything works fine. I noticed a lot of the vcard stuff in my logcat and thought maybe that was it and so far it works as long as I keep hitting no every time the request to access my contacts pops up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
So [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION], I think you cured my flashing addiction. I dont think I've ever been on one ROM for this long. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Speaking of which, you may have a reason to do some flashing again :P

New build coming soon, not much new, just behind the scenes bug fixes and oh yeah, circle battery is back :)

I'm speaking of staying on one ROM all together. Usually I'm bouncing from one ROM to another. I'm always looking forward to updates. :)

[MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION]. Here is a log of that APN issue. There might be stone extraneous stuff at the end. Terminal emulator didn't want to cooperate, for a minute

http://pastebin.com/gSf3V9rg

I'm going to grab mw's latest FML build, and see if I can replicate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d00dr:
Looks like no ART for me :(

I flashed the standard 11/26 GApps and had no keyboard. Ended up having to revert back to the latest PA Gapps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unzitron:
Did you enable it in settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d00dr:
I tried but there was no keyboard even showing up to select.

Clean flashed 12/2 ROM, standard 11/26 GApps, then the SuperRam kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
{snip}

This ROM is already perfect -- and these will make it even better. My gnex is flying, flawless and feels like a wonderful new phone. My LG G2 arrives tomorrow... Not about to pay Verizon for yet another line, so the gnex will wind up sidelined for now... A shame that now, when it's finally a perfect and super fast phone, it's getting replaced!

Maybe you'll take an interest in the G2...I can only imagine what this ROM would be like ported to the G2 hardware, along with KitKat, linaro and ART. Probably go backward in time every time you make a call... :)

So -- going to enjoy the hell out of this ROM for about another 30 hours...then it's G2 time. Will miss this! Once again - truly appreciate all you've done, and the contributions you've made.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Up until yesterday, I was having problems with location. I clean flashed yesterday's build and location is working for me again (I just make sure NOT to enable ART and never to turn off GPS, even for those times when I need to save battery). Now, since I flashed yesterday's build, LTE stopped working. I've tried everything to get it back working again, including dialing *#*#4636#*#*, but nothing works. Anyone have any idea what I can do to get LTE working again?

EDIT: Never mind: I went under phone information and changed the default radio setting; I had never previously done that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] c600g:
I had the same issue that you did yesterday. I was lucky enough to have an old alternate keyboard apk that I used on my Droid X (ack - long time ago!) a while back, and installed it.

Unfortunately, after getting everything set up and installed, then enabling ART, I began experiencing problems. Continual "Google *something* Services" has stopped working, reboot fixed it. Made a call, and after a few minutes of talking, the call went to shrieking static. Tried hanging up and redialing the number - no joy.

It was at this point that I restored the 1128 (non art) ROM backup I had made, and am simply staying with that for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d00dr:
Yeah, its definitely not the end of the world for me. I'm just gonna stick with the 12/2 ROM, PA GApps, and SuperRam kernel using metalspring's settings. Fast enough, and stable, for me!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaredsleboeuf:
I recently flashed 12/3 hoping the telephony patches would fix my issues (4G to 3G handoff always results in failure to establish stable 3G connection (vice versa doesn't seem to be a problem though - which is weird)). Unfortunately, now neither 4G, nor 3G connections work for me. I did a dirty flash over the previous build after wiping dalvik/cache, but I didn't apply any other special treatment. I am not using any additional mods, kernels, etc. Just the installation zip provided in the OP and the suggested gapps. Any advice/suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heXacode:
Did you include viper4android in the new build? Would be nice to have that come with the ROM so some of us don't have to remember extra things to add after setting up everything when done with flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Hey [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION]

I have room for an FTP server for you dude.

Unlimited bandwidth and space, ill give you full access to all folders (so you can create more folders outside of your FTP username), and I can even give you your own subdomain if you'd like. (With or without wordpress / admin rights to the wp). Either that, or you can use it as an apache webserver. I can upload a template which will make the server look even better (see: http://Server.MBQonXDA.net/)

Let me know dude.

And to anyone who read this that is in need of one, PM me, and I'll hook you up too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Finally had tone, and battery to flash. Same issue, so I'm guessing it's cm. I'll flash gummy (since it's aosp), and report it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elliot2112:
Ok so my nexus is just killing it in the speed category but its killing my battery insanely fast. If I switch from super ram to 1080 mpokang will that help and will I loose the speed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Someone, a few pages back, was saying the performance was noticeable. He hadn't had time to comment on the battery, though.

I would suggest adjusting the auto brightness scale (of you have it on), and doing some governor And frequency tweaks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rester555:
To the people that are saying mpokang super ram kernel has video playback issues. Can you be more specific? Does the video stutter or not playback at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heXacode:
Correction... do not move to /system/app or it won't work. Move to /system/priv-app and set the correct permission. Then reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Have you tried it? Any issues?

Sent from my Android 4.4 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neilrl79:
You're incorrect. Koush's instructions were to put it in system/app and that is where I put it and it works fine.

I haven't run into any issues using it, made 4 recordings between a minute and 4 minutes long.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
I've been using 1080 with this for the last couple of builds, and with ART turned on, it's spectacularly fast and smooth. Battery life good too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heXacode:
/system/app didn't work for me. /system/priv-app worked so technically you're still wrong. Moving on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neilrl79:
If the developer of the app gives instruction on how to install it, I'd be willing to bet he knows what he's talking about. Perhaps you made a mistake when putting it in /system/app that you didn't repeat when putting it in /system/priv-app , the upside being that you confirmed it also works in /system/priv-app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
To anyone having bad battery life, check to make sure Google services aren't taking up a ton of battery

They tend to use a lot of battery if location reporting is on and the OK Google hotword is on in Google now

Also, one more kernel that *should* work is tiny kernel, so it's always worth a look to see if that helps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw, I've been thinking of just switching to building AOSPA or vanir or carbon rom once they are ready for the gnex

I was never really a fan of cm, and going through things on their gerrit makes me realize some things will never come back from 4.3 just to stay in line with Google so they don't have to worry about releasing their rom officially on phones

(So much for becoming an actual business not effecting how they handle all the open source stuff...)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thenewguy821:
May want to look into other things that may be robbing your battery. I am getting better battery life now, on the 12/02 linaro build w/ ART turned on, with metalsprings modded superRAM kernel overclocked to his settings, than previous ROMs underclocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
Carbon+ your performance improvements would kill.

Just my 2¢ ,sorry for OT.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justen7723:
Carbon would be amazing

Vanir
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
I loved me some vanir, but I like most non cm stuff...

Circle mod rocks my socks though...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elliot2112:
Is his modified kernel the one in the list of mpokang links in op?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Carbon is pretty far behind in features compared to cyanogenmod, vanir and aospa right now though

they havent even added back the clear all recents button, lockscreen shortcuts, quick settings, or led light control for notifications

vanir seems to have most, if not all the same features cm does plus bugfixes and maybe a few extra features

And aopsa seems to have even more features merged than cm does right now

btw AOKP basically just started merging 4.4 stuff less than 2 weeks ago lol

If anyone wants to compare themselves just look at merged vs open commits on their gerrits :P

cm gerrit

carbon rom gerrit

vaniraosp gerrit

aospa gerrit (paranoid android for anyone that doesnt know)

Don't think I've run CM since winner's CM7 builds haha. Yours is running great man!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
I was excited to try out GEL, and having the hotword on the homescreen was cool -- but when it's done completely in software, it *has* to use additional battery any time the homescreen is visible. Phones like the Moto X that have special low-power "listening" chips can get away with constant monitoring, but emulating that purely in software with the normal audio circuits just can't be as battery efficient. In the end, "OK Google" is fun to show to a friend, but I hardly use it in "real life". So..instead, I use Nova (or Apex), have more control over screen layout and gestures, and save battery.

...and if you want to port the ROM to LG G2 and start building for that, that would be nice too!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
I'd need a G2 to test on lol

Its hard to test roms for a phone you dont have and I dont release a rom unless I test it myself first :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
If I had a spare...

My gnex is positively flying now on cMetal, but my G2 arrives tomorrow, and I'm only going to keep one of them on a live line on VzW...so the gnex becomes semi-retired - ironic, since it's finally working at its peak. So...battery out, gnex in a box, to be revived if/when I need a backup for the G2. I'll try stock G2 for a while so I can see what the LG overlay features are like. But there's little doubt that it will be unlocked, rooted and flashed not too far down the road...so I'm hoping that the best of the best ROMs wind up ported to the G2. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
I'll probably be jumping ship from verizon to tmobile when my contract runs out in march (I'd do it sooner if not for the huge fee for early termination)

Tmobile service isnt as quite good as vzw around here (and sprint is basically nonexistant lol) but I cant stand verizons nonsense about unlimited data...

I dont want to have to spend $500+ on a new phone just to keep unlimited data and still have the risk of verizon taking it away at any time (they can technically do this on month to month service)

I would love to have jumped on that moto x for $350 off contract deal though if not for the fact I needed to spend $450 on getting my car fixed lol

Talk about bad timing, although I probably would have just played around with it for a week or so and then sold it for $400 or so once their deal was over ;)
