+1. Mine locked soon as i hit record, and now camera doesn't work at all. Gonna try a reboot.

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Camera works again after reboot. I think camera/camcorder just has issues with kitkat when ported to sammy right now. We got kk on the GTab2 the day after kk was released, and some people had probs with the cam from the start. It has something to do with the code since nexus devices dont have ext sd cards i think. Correct me if wrong.

Sorry to be a bother, but can you walk us through the steps on how you switched out the apk? I am having problems setting permissions (using ROM Toolbox Pro) to do this. :( Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Krowbarr:
No problem at all. First using a file manager(I use Root Explorer)go to system>app and delete the Gallery2apk then reboot. Place the new Gallery2apk into system>app and set permissions to rw-r-r and reboot again. Done:D

I used root browser for a looong time, now I use fx explorer. After first try, I never looked back, just be sure to DL the root add on. BTW, it works flawlessly on every ROM I try/tried. It also has a dark/transparent theme, multiple view styles. Everyone should give it a try.

I'm not seeing any issues with it, my ET4G is not on active service, so I can really only test it when connected to WiFi, but its accurate and as fast as I've seen on TW or 4.2.2 AoSP.

I have been running this ROM for 12 days so far as my DD (albeit on an unactivated device). This is the smoothest ROM I have ever had on my device, very stable with no issues encountered with ART enabled and OKJ tweaks. I have done 4 fresh flashes, and have found that I have the best results using Slim minimal 4.4.1 gapps, and to download any other Google apps from Playstore that I use that are not included in the Slim minimal gapps package. ART makes a noticable positive improvement in performance (at least on my device), and I don't even miss using Xposed modules. Great job, thank you for bringing 4.4 to our device.

Do you have a Virgin Mobile-branded D710 or a Sprint-branded D710 ported to VM using an older VM phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
Yes there is. You have to let it "settle" for a day after a fresh install. I'd recommend you install your apps afterwards. Also not necessary but you should enable art without gapps then flash gapps. Just so the amount of apps that are compiled isn't as much each time. But not necessary. I've done it only once and did not have half the patience to wait plus my favorite apps. Not that there's a huge amount of apps that aren't available, that was just my special case. I think someone else can give you a better insight.

Hey LinuxGuy & Rangerelf, thanks for the posts. I tried a few things, I tested switching over to ART while having all my current apps/settings applied. Rebooted, and after the app optimization like after a cache/dalvik clear, I experienced many FC's to which I was able to uninstall and reinstall for some, some I simply cleared the apps' cache & data. However, there was still a few apps that were not able to be "refreshed" as well as having memory shortages, I then tried to start fresh, as LinuxGuy mentioned, wiped data/system cleared chaches and flashed ROM. Booted up, changed over to ART, then rebooted into recovery again , flashed gApps, and then started to restore apps. My device doesn't like the ART runti e environment while in beta testing at least.. :/

Make sure you let it settle before switching though. With jit on leave it a day then switch to art. here's a list if apps that don't work http://androidruntime.com Furthermore don't restore the apps themselves. Instead reinstall from the play store or however. Then restore just data if you want.

[Edit] the website also tells you if the app works actually. Pretty sweet you can contribute too. Maybe you can add some apps?

Hey guys, I've been using Villuminati on my ET4G for a few weeks now, I was running the 12/7 build and dirty flashed the 12/7 build over it. Everything is running good. I'm not having any issues, but I have a question about the system ROM partition size. On my phone, I show 528mb with only about 27KB available..

On a clean install, is this what everyone else is seeing?

Like I said though, I'm not having any issues, but for example, I can't even run AdAway cause it says not enough room.. Or the latest KJ tweaks, says you need a minimum of 10mbs in the system partition.. :/

So, my question is: is there any way to recover memory in the system ROM partition?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] easyrider77:
My guess would be you need t flash back to a safe kernel/recovery to flash it.

From what I gather from my expereience this new recovery doesn't work or play well with other roms and flashing stuff. Basically kitkat roms/recoveries vs JB roms/recoveries don't like to work with each other.

That's why people always say use a safe recovery IE: El26 or El29 direct boot are both safe recoveries. A pai I know, but that's all part of the root/flashing roms world, we just gotta deal with some oddities.

This is also why we have to flash too a newer recovery via a rom, or a kernel then flash into kitkat, it's a 2 step process in all cases, because no one has of yet, made a recovery to go from jb directly to kitkat yet in a single step.

My experience with changing runtime from Dalvik to ART:

After first doing a nandroid backup on Sunday morning I did a full wipe and reinstalled this ROM (Dec. 7 build). I did not install gapps. The phone booted into the ROM successfully. I skipped login to my Google account and did not install any apps.

I let the phone sit, charging, until Monday morning.

In Developer options, I changed the runtime from Dalvik to ART. The phone prompted me to reboot, which I did -- and it did, booting back into the home screen after a bit. Several FCs occurred immediately in com.android.process.gapps. Also a FC in Google Partner and a FC in Setup Wizard.

After the FCs ended, I went into Settings/Apps to look for how to clear app data and cache. I cleared Setup Wizard; but after scrolling through All apps, I could not find any other apps to clear.

I rebooted into recovery and wiped dalvik cache. Rebooted the system and encountered the same FCs.

Rebooted into recovery, wiped the two caches and data, and flashed the mini-KK-gapps. Rebooted the system and got the same FCs. Rebooted again, same behavior.

I didn't try anything else -- didn't try, for example, installing other apps to see whether they worked or logging in to my google account. Instead, I restored this ROM from nandroid backup.

One of the claims that Google made about KitKat was that it's designed to be used even on 512MB devices, which implies that 4.4 uses less memory than earlier releases.
