I've not seen the sudden-lags coming back (I was playing with ART and side-loading some system-apps when it started to happen.

I know ART isn't recommended with this ROM yet... ART is working great on my 2012/2013 N7s).

Question for [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION]

When you say vendor blobs for the echo fix, are those something that are integrated into the ROM at compile time, or are they simply libs or other files I could conceivably test on other ROMs? If they are just files I could drop in, could you share where they are and which ones?

Try Viper4Android. Its pretty much the best thing ever. You may need to flash SuperSu though. It doesn't Koush's built in SU sometimes.
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
The fixes have to be implemented at build time

Also I did expect a few audio issues this build, I will rebuild today with some changes :good: and yea viper4android is really good ;)

Going to remove xposed framework to make sure its not the cause of any issues and switch the keyboard switch to stop it from disappearing / crashing

I haven't figured out what causes certain root apps to lag down the UI until reboot - I can tell you its not a ROM problem however since I forced this to happen on PA/Omni/CM also. It is either in the build tree/kernel/ramdisk not yet sure.

[G2 Original Android Development] dr_acula:
Banks core gapps doesn't have a camera apk in it. It doesn't replace the stock 13mp with the generic 8mp found in other gapps, like banks standard, pa gapps etc. They all have 8mp that replaces our stock one when you flash it.

Try A Better Camera from the play store, it is free for most features but to get hdr+ you have to pay like a £1.00 (or however many dollars) works fantastically, best camera in my opinion.

No problem. There are not many Roms that it works with it seems but Mahdi is one of them.

I've noticed less drain while using it on mahdi, so it is a viable option since Mahdi does not support art. (Least it didn't when I tried to activate it a while ago, bootloop city)

Sorry for all the off topic talk.

Taking a break from aosp for a while (tired of all the sod issues). But once I'm back I'm going full force with your kernel. Still highly impressed with how smooth it was.

You baking it into your builds now?

Sent from my Vs980
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
Not yet but eventually, still have a fix a few things :good:

You SOD even after raising voltages a bit?
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
Yeah, I did raise the volatges by 50 and still had issues. It was gradual. It'd be all good then a day or a day and a half in I would get sod's and reboots.

Not sure if it was something I was doing. Switching art. Or whatever, so I figured I'd just relax till 4.4 drops and everything is solid.

It definietly was nothing like the first batches of the cm kernel though haha.

Sent from my Vs980
[G2 Original Android Development] dr87:
I think its because some of the board source files seem to be more stable than others on 4.4. On 801 I've never had a single reboot or sod ever on 4.4, but I know a verizon phone that gets them often.

We have access to 4.4 source but it doesn't do us any good until kitkat officially releases on the phone and we can flash the KDZ and get all the new partitions, bootloader and modems. At that point we can build on the 4.4 kernel and not the 4.2.2 kernel and a lot of issues will be gone.
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
I also noticed that the vs980 seems to get more sod's then other devices.

[G2 Original Android Development] subhani:
I'm on international D802 and I've never had SODs or call echo. Although I only really started using this ROM for about a month now. I'm just so impressed with how responsive and smooth it is compared to stock. With TSB, this device is just how I would love it to be. It's a nexus with all the hardware advantages of the great display, the never ending battery, the camera and IR blaster etc. Kudos to our devs.

Anyhoo, I'm wondering if the dalvik/bionic libs have been incorporated into the ROM already or would I have to apply that myself from their thread?
[G2 Original Android Development] Lawlrus:
To the best of knowledge they have not been baked in.

Just download it and flash it. If they have already incorporated it, then it doesn't hurt anything. (Make a backup if you want).

Loving your kernel so far just found out you also have Roms! Going to try this out when u post the new update!
[G2 Original Android Development] borimol:
That's for disable screen off, but I would like to disable screen on when I double tap when it's off. I think there isn't any option to disable power on screen.

Another question, do you think that the sound is too loud during a call? Is there away to lower the volume while talking on the phone? but even with it turned all the way down, its still very loud.
[G2 Original Android Development] :
which phone do you have?

Dr87 pointed me this far :

I have experimented with root explorer in etc\mixer paths.xml and changed to 70 in the following lines:

It makes it lower, but also decreases the maximum volume:

<path name="handset">

<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />

<ctl name="RX1 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />

<ctl name="CLASS_H_DSM MUX" value="DSM_HPHL_RX1" />

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="70" />

<ctl name="DAC1 Switch" value="1" />

</path>

Somehow this makes speaker really load. So I changed same line under speaker.

Save, check permissions before and after, then reboot phone and victory.

At own risk.

WiFi Hotspot not working

I am running the 20140203 version of this ROM with the ROMs stock kernel. Can anyone confirm that WiFi Hotspot is working on this ROM? Today, I connected my laptop to my G2 hotspot but it would not connect to the internet. I had a decent LTE connection and confirmed my phone could quickly access data and the internet. I have used this computer on another KitKat ROM from my N4 so that's what made me suspicious.
