I flashed the two files in the OP on my N5 running stock 4.2.2, cleared cache and davlik, but have seen no perceptible difference. Originally, Antutu was giving me 17400-23400 (avg. 20600). After, I'm getting 19400-20700 (avg 20000). Am I missing something?

20,000? That's worse than the N4.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Yes you obviously missed something... On stock you should have something like 30 000 at least.

Thermal throttling at some point (let your phone cool down)? Check your max CPU freq...

No error in recovery when flashing the files?

Are you sure you have flashed the right files (the two first)?

I don't know but it seems you flashed the revert to stock files to me... Just in case it's these one in attachment, from the OP.

If we use ART on

, do we have to flash the bionic? I mean, CM11 has CAF and I believe it might be kinda optimized. Or not? :P
[Nexus 5 General] aavvaallooss:
I think it's already optimized
[Nexus 5 General] meangreenie:
check your antutu score, when cool.. if you only score in the high twenty thousands then you will know.
[Nexus 5 General] hackel:
No errors in flashing at all, and double-checked that I flashed the right ones. That still doesn't explain the extremely low scores before I flashed, either. So I left my phone in the refrigerator for a few minutes and tried again... This time I scored 33,552, but surely you guys aren't doing that to get your scores? I just ran it again and got 22,397 at 26°C.

Are these scores over clocking? I haven't over clocked, and I'm using Franco's kernel.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Without overclock I have about 35 800/36 000 with a CPU temp at 28°C at the start of Antutu (Purity rom and Trinity kernel)... and with stock kernel something like 34 000 if I remember right with the same CPU temp (idle temp I have for the CPU at home).

There is someting weird... 26°C is your CPU or battery temp?

Check the thermal throttling settings with Franco kernel, he lowered the CPU temp before thermal throttling so you are thermal throttled earlier...
[Nexus 5 General] Riekr:
Yes they are and you shouldn't flash dalvik or installd at least AFAIK

[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

If you want compatibility with CM with the Dalvik patches you need to flash the full zip file with the installd bin file, otherwise it's FC's and maybe bootloop.

The installd bin file is in the zip to assure CM compatibility (at least a few nightlies ago it was nedeed and it does not hurt even now). Before there was not this file (in the OP here for the Nexus 5) and users who flashed the Dalvik patches with CM encountered a ton of FC's. Now it's fine.

After if it's nedeed to flash them on CM, if it's better or not in term of improvement, test and see... CM don't use these patches here but their own optimizations from Code Aurora, here in this thread it's not the same thing, it's the files from Qualcomm, closed source. Honestly CM will not put these files like this in their rom and claim "Dalvik and Bionic optimizations"..., take a look at the sources :D

:)
[Nexus 5 General] ali262883:
does it effect battery life ?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Better is to try and see by yourself... A few users have reported a slight increase in battery consumption but it could be a coincidence, another thing.

For me, no difference or at least nothing noticeable...

From the Nexus 4 thread:

[Nexus 5 General] ali262883:
Okay .. Thank You ;) I do see smoothness

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ----------

one more question .. do i need to flash bionic if i'm using dalvik ?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Yes, you will see also a gain, first in benches, and maybe in general UI. More if you are running stock rom (I mean not a rom already optimized with Dalvik/Bionic from AOSP/Code Aurora).

Question :

If I flashed this dalvik patch , and cant get pass my Rom's boot animation ( boot loop ).

What should be the problem ?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

What rom?

Dalvik cache wiped?

Running Dalvik runtime?

Weird, no bootloop reported since a long time :confused:. You tried and you end in a bootloop?
[Nexus 5 General] EeWin:
Carbon Rom ( 21/2 ) , Franco r33 , Wiped dalvik + cache everytime, using Dalvik runtime...

In the Carbon Rom thread , they said they can't use ART and , for the Dalvik users they cant install this patch. Will get bootloops at the Carbon logo.

Note : It only has bootloop in this 21/2 nightly.
[Nexus 5 General] gpvecchi:
Bootloops with CM11 21/1...
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hum, weird... Carbon rom is AOSP, now CM... :confused:

Both nightlies from today...

If it's for the Dalvik patch, delete the "installd" file in the zip (system/bin) and try to flash again to see...
[Nexus 5 General] gpvecchi:
Well, bootloop is not enough, i can't even get to Google logo, it was a pain to enter recovery...
[Nexus 5 General] galaxys:
Try another rom like purity or rastakat....
[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:
Quick question: i have the old dalvik and bionic patch that was only one zip files, is this double zip an improved version or it's the same thing but splitted? Can i flash over mine or do i have to revert to stock and then reflash the two separate zip?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

They are exactly the same as before but separated. The only thing different as before is the "installd" bin file fore Dalvik for compatibility with CM (at least not for the 02/21 nightly it seems :D), for other roms it changes nothing.

Yes you can flash flash over yours without reverting to stock, but since they are the same...

:)
[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:
Thanks :) Yeah no valid reason to bother installing it if they are the same lol
[Nexus 5 General] :
Yes in the OP they are the same as before.

But if you want to test new patches, search for my posts in this thread. I posted Dalvik files from HTC One GPE 4.4.2, Moto X 4.4.2 (it's 4.4 here) and Galaxy S IV GPE 4.4.2... :D

It seems these are newer according to a dev in the Nexus 4 thread...

I have not noticed a real improvement, but...

Sorry can't post links to my posts, too hard with XDA app or even with mobile browser :eek: :D

:)
[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:
Oh, nice, i will test for sure! Are users getting positive results?
[Nexus 5 General] :
No feedback, nothing... :(, just one about the S IV files but I messed up with the upload the first time, maybe I mixed stock/S IV files so... :D

But if you want to test and report, you are welcome ;)

I tested on stock and Purity rom (AOSP) without issue. I need to test again because now I don't remember exactly...

[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:

I agree, much faster. Focus is quicker. +++
[Nexus 5 General] PresidentMcCain:
You can't use the binaries on CM. They have their own Dalvik / Bionic library which is incompatible with AOSP / Moto X libraries.

Yes camera focus is significantly faster here as well. Proving that it was indeed a software issue, not because the camera can't handle it.
[Nexus 5 General] meangreenie:
^^ yeah the files seem hard to get hold of.. don't know why.
[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:
As of now i've tested the new 4.4.2 moto x against the old single zip patch. These are the results:

moto X 4.4

Quadrant run 1: 20734 2: 20978 3: 21049

Antutu run 1:30588 2:32837

Moto X 4.4.2

Quadrant run 1: 20985 2: 21208 3: 21185

Antutu run 1: 34156 2: 34484

Seems there is a little little little bit of improvement. Quadrant who don't stress the cpu all that much show results around 0,4/0,5% with the newer libraries.

Antutu 2000 points more, but it's a lot more thermal throttling dependent. First run of antutu with the older libraries was done at room temp (20°), second run and all two runs with the newer libraries were done outside the window (external temp maybe 10° c).

I will test the htc ones when i have time. The samsung, not worth testing lol just kidding
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Thanks for testing, but you need to try to make your benches in the same conditions, because 10°C room temperature different can make the difference, whatever the patches, between your scores and it will be more accurate/relevant...

So yes here it's mainly due to thermal thing.

If I have time, I'll test again...

:)
[Nexus 5 General] Madpiercing:
The second antutu with older patches was done at 10° c in the same conditions as the 4.4.2 runs.. I also had already an idea of the score because i ran it yesterday various times and never went over 33000. So yeah, there is a bit of improvement. However in real world use the difference is unnoticeable (but we already knew this ;) )
[Nexus 5 General] kraehetest:
I'll check them in the next days.

btw. i compared bionic files, this are all exact the same files.

i have no benchmark results in my head, but i think HTC One GPE was faster then moto x files from the first post.
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
If we flash a new kernel or so, Will it delete the bionic and dalvik patches?? Do I need to reflash?? How do I check whether the bionic and dalvik patch is still there in my nexus?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

If you flash a new kernel no need to reflash the patches, it's on the rom side (so even with a dirty flash you'll need to reflash them).

Run a bench and you'll see if you have the patches or not...

I tested the Moto X 4.4.2 files, no difference in bench (nor in general UI) for me compared to the one in the OP (and considering the slight fluctuation between different run). Always the same CPU settings, CPU temp at the beginning, kernel and rom..., I'm currently testing the HTC One files

:)
[Nexus 5 General] kraehetest:
Test with dalviks:

Moto X 4.4: (1. post) Antutu: 32728 (100%) Quadrant: 17828 (100%)

Moto X 4.4.2: Antutu: 32895 (101%) Quadrant: 17440 (98%)

HTC One GPE 4.4.2: Antutu: 32922 (101%) Quadrant: 18915 (106%)

Galaxy S IV GPE 4.4.2: Antutu: 33053 (101%) Quadrant: 17700 (99%)

Quadrant fluctuates very much, I have tested more times. Antutu is better for comparing. I would say that the values are within the measurement accuracy.

With francos kernel rev. 32 (thermal throttle at 60°C (francos default))

In short yes...

It depends of the rom you are using.

@ kraehetest, thanks for your tests :good:. I'll test the S IV Dalvilk patche. It seems the MotoX 4.4/4.4.2 are equals (if we take in consideration the "normal" fluctuation of the overall score).

For the HTC One I have a bit higher too.

[Nexus 5 General] rockingondrums:
So to reiterate, the dalvik zip in the op is the most current and will work on cm nightlies after 21st? Because I also got bootloops on the 21 nightly.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

@ rockingondrums, yes they are the current ones. They should work but it seems there is an issue with CM. For users who have tested, how did you flash them? I mean directly after the rom or after a reboot or other? Because there was bootloop on the 21/22 nightlies without these patches...

Why not test by flashing them with the last nightly and report if it works or not to help all CM users to know...

[Nexus 5 General] hohoxu_hao115:
I just checked their md5sums, the files in MOTOX-4.4.2 zips are exactly the same as in op zip files.

Sorry for my english.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Bah... the one I posted are from a full stock rom, I downloaded again another full stock/untouched MotoX 4.4.2 rom and the files have in fact the same MD5...

The ones from the OP are from 4.4, so it seems they used the same Dalvik bin and lib files between Android 4.4 and 4.4.2. It's maybe why there is no real difference in benches :D

That being said, they are the same also for the S IV and HTC One for the bin files but the files have not the same size and MD5 for the HTC One and S IV libs (libdvm.so, libcutils.so and libqc-opt.so)...

So I guess there is some difference between MotoX4.4-MotoX4.4.2 vs HTC One-S IV about the libs.

HTC One and S IV have almost the same libs, just the libdvm.so is not the same...

So in conclusion there are still differences about the libs between the two MotoX/HTC One/S IV, the bin files are all the same... it sounds confusing wrote like that but it's simple :eek::D

Hi,

Here in attachment, I have not tested yet (Nandroid backup is highly recommended).

The bin files seems the same (but I put them in the zip), not the lib files. There is no libqc-opt.so in the stock G2 so it's the one from the OP (?).

So the new libs are libcutils.so and libdvm.so.

Bionic, same file.

Hey guys. I jumped from the HTC One X to this sexy device and rooted+flashed the Purity Rom on it which works like charm but the newest Purity build is on KVT49L instead of KOT49H.

Can I just revert this mod with the KOT49H build or do I have to wait until it gets released for the KVT49L build? I don´t want to reflash the whole Rom hust to get back to the stock dalvik

[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Here in attachment a revert flashable zip (Dalvik and Bionic files) for the last Purity build (02/16). Keep in mind that the Dalvik files in Purity are not stock, there are some optimizations (from AOSP) and Bionic from CAF, Purity rom have its own optimizations... so if you flash the revert zip from the OP you'll lose the optimizations made in Purity, you'll go back to the original files...

[Nexus 5 General] Beyazid:
Thank you very much for the file. I will keep that in mind for the next time :good:
[Nexus 5 General] :
You're welcome :)

And you'll probably need the new files from each new build since in general there are some changes about Dalvik and Bionic optimizations (need to read the changelog).

If you flash the revert zip with the files from the 02/16 build, maybe for the next build, if there are some changes, you'll need again a new zip to go back to the original Purity files (or you might lose some new optimizations).

You can do that by yourself by extracting the files from the rom and replace them inside the zip I provided (follow the path in the zip to have the location of each bin and lib files).

Flashed this today on stock ROM, wasn't able to successfully boot - stock on the colours cycling screen . Had to restore. :(
[Nexus 5 General] :
Hi,

Sorry to hear that, as I said "not tested"..., fortunately you had a nandroid backup, right? (when you say "had to restore"). You can try the all the others I posted (even on stock they should work). Maybe another feedback with the G2 (if no or another non boot, I'll remove them).

In any case the ones in the OP works on stock.

Thank you for having tested and reported :)

On another side, the Dalvik patche from the SIV seems to give a little boost in Antutu for the CPU float-point part (about 3800 before, 4100 now with the same settings)..., nothing noticeable in general UI for me (nothing better, nothing worse).

Now this is neat. Purity ROM custom dalvik bionic mods are nice and smooth. But I prefer another ROM for its certain features. But theoretically I could flash this zip on another ROM and have purity bionic dalvik mods? Obvious risk involved and backup necessary. But I may try it.

Hi,

Test and see but, like you said backup first. It a question I never thought, since we use the files from another device, why not from another rom to other rom for the N5? Yep, maybe possible.

Thanks for the feedback guys, LG G2 files removed.

You're welcome :)

Yes, download the roms, extract the files, rename the zip's, move the right files inside the zip's (:D) test, etc... it takes time.

:)

EDIT: with the Dalvik files from the SIV and the Bionic files from the OP (we see the CPU float-point is increased, the runtime part maybe a bit too, usually with the Dalvik files from the OP I have about 3 500 but nothing really noticeable compared to the CPU float-point...):

Jbench and Cf-Bench shows also a little increase, Quadrant also but too inconsistant...

I have usually about 36 500 in Cf-Bench, now about 39 200:

Stock CPU freq, Ondemand governor, Deadline i/o scheduler, Purity rom, 28°C CPU temp at the beginning of the bench (always the same CPU temp for all my tests).
