i have the same issue. i faced this issue in all kitkat roms i've tried till now ( Mikes LX, Carbon, Omni and now in AORP). Im a Neo V user. pm your list of apps you installed, i'll compare it to mine. if some app is creating this problem maybe we can solve it.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Munchkin86:
I have installed the newest update, the r1.2 OTA and hoped that through the update some problems which occured before would have been solved.

Is it normal that after the update process the whole system hat to "update" and "optimize" all of my apps again?

I already told earlier that through this "optimization process" my internal storage is lacking enough space and it is quite impossible to fix this problem.

Before my update to r1.2 my internal storage had about 120 MB, after the update the internal storage shrinked down to 95,75.

I installed the app "Office Suite" on my device and it directly reduced my former internal storage from 170mb down to 142mb.

But Link2SD said that it would put the app to the 2nd partition (ext3). But it seems that this didn't happen.

In order to avoid this problem should I set the "native apps2sd settings", the install location from "automatic" to "external"?

Why is my internal storage shrinking the whole time?

I tried to install everything new, but now after installing r1.0 and directly r1.2 it is not possible to root the phone anymore. But it is necessary to make Link2SD work. any solutions?

Anybody got R1.3 working on Arc S?

I cannot get it to boot, it is always getting stuck at the boot animation (the animation is moving, so the phone is not frozen), this is what I tried in order:

- downloaded R1.3 anzu

- flashed Kernel from R1.3 zip

- installed as Upgrade on my good working R1 (first noticed it does not boot)

- reflashed Kernel

- flashed Dark Kernel

- reflashed Kernel from R1.3

- restored my R1 backup

- installed R1.2 and it booted fine

- installed R1.3 as Upgrade

- installed R1.3 with Full Wipe

- wiped System, data, cache, Dalvik and installed R1.3 with Full Wipe

- did the last step with different configurations (several boot animations, launchers, with/without gapps, etc.)

Does anybody have another idea what I could try to get R1.3 running on Arc S?

Many thanks for your help in advance..
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Munchkin86:
Hey I also tried to install the r1.3, but it was not possible.

It is always stuck at the boot animation. Not really sure what is wrong? I thought Headfox fixed this boot animation problem.

Maybe he will provide us with an update soon.

I flashed back to Stock ROM and then installed r1.3 directly with full wipe.

No improvement, so I think headfox has to find out where the problem is and help us then.

Also can't install rc 1.3 :crying: Previous versions were so good. Hopefully it will be working within the next few days. :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerGute:
after excessively testing installation on Arc S (got it to boot without changing anything on 2nd options page in Aroma) I found that it seems to be related to "More Steps Volume".

Succesfully booting with Full Wipe & Upgrade from R1 without enabling "More Steps Volume".

-->> Upgrade is not a good idea, it is terminating all the apps even though they are not opened, will do a Full Wipe again and restore from Titanium Backup what I need (SMS/MMS, Contacts, etc)

Please try on your devices and post the results to help HeadFox that he can focus on that one setting (if everybody confirms that it is really only that one option)..

I saw that r1.4 is going to be uploaded in a couple of hours, should we do a full wipe from r1.3, or will the upgrade option in aroma be enough?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeadFox:
If you come from r1.2 or r1.3 you can try upgrade. Make a full wipe if the Rom is too slow and buggy for you.

Neo/Neo V Users, the ROM was uploading without Add-on so all action on AROMA was useless. I started to re-upload it the size is 348 mB now.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adurnas:
Ok, now I've installed the new r1.4 on my neo, but the transparent notification bar isn't working in nova, with the transparent bar option activated, even changing ro.config.low_ram from false to true didn't seem to fix it. Other than that, it seems to be working great, keep up the good work!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeadFox:
It's a Nova Problem.

Thank you !
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adurnas:
My bad... was convinced I had changed the line in build.prop, but apparently I didn't update the archive. Redid it, and now it's back to normal.

Recap for anyone interested: if you want a transparent nav bar in r1.4 for neo (can't say about the others), you have to go in the .zip file, open the folder named system, then open build.prop in notepad, and search for ro.config.low_ram=true. Replace the true with false (ro.config.low_ram=false), save and update the archive, then install normally.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerGute:
Awesome work once again! Installed R1.3 last night and set everything up as I like, this morning I just updated to R1.4 (without any wiping) and after flashing Kernel WiFi worked as well and I did not lose any of my customization on the Desktop or Link2SD.

Still working fast, stable and with all functions I need, did not even know that 720p video recording was fixed! :)

Thanks for the Rom, I updated from r1.3 to r1.4 without wiping the data. Rom is awesome everything is working fine, but OSB in Z1 Launcher is not transparent. Is it because, I updated with out wiping? Is there any properties file do I need to change to make it transparent.

Thanks in advance

Should the nav bar be transparent everywhere or just the home screen?

I used Nova launcher this time and it was not transparent, then I saw a setting in Performance and enebled it: Force high-end graphics

Great ROM

I installed this 1.4 version on my Xperia Ray 2 days ago. I used version 1.1 previously. This new version seems far better. After installing I was worried about battery because I was having very quick battery drain in the ROM I tried recently.

After I installed this 1.4 version , battery drain was also too fast , in fact it was fully discharged in 13 hours. But after that the problem has gone , I fully charged phone yesterday 12 PM and battery level is 48% now after 32 hours. Though I have taken some steps like reduced max clock rate , turned of location service , wifi when not necessary. I am happy with it. Probably , first battery drain was due to the system being settled down and make itself ready for further use.

This is fast and responsive. Of course I'll mention Good battery. In any Jelly beans ROM Facebook App created a problem for my language Bangla. In facebook App , last 1-2 characters were clipped away from any Bangla sentence. But I am happy, this problem is no more in Kitkat.

No issues so far. I'll report if I find any.

Thank you very much [MENTION=5122557]HeadFox[/MENTION] for this great ROM.

The first Kit Kat based rom i tried, previously from ICS.

I installed the rom yesterday, the rom is fantastic, the only problem i experience is the battery draining, i have my phone fully charged on 9am today, but right now (about 1pm in Malaysia now),the battery drain until 65%, hope that it is battery use to settle down the device.

Overall, the ROM is fantastic and nice work!:)

Now disable the option and monitoring the battery level, the ROM is still very smooth until now, fantastic:good:

So, how's that working out? It's been a while.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Naturesretard:
So in 2 days I can swap my handset and test this new jump! Program. I'm curious if there are any good phones available or if I should wait a month. I had my eye on the note 3 but idk if I should continue to swap for that.I'm looking for something with an SD slot. Saw the new nexus 5 and while it looks sexy, doesn't seem to have a slot

My other question is unrooting my t999L. I saw a guide somewhere once but don't remember, can anybody link it please?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I'd take a look at MOTROLA MOTO X or HTC ONE X+Samsung is launching S5, want to wait ? I won't take Note 3 unless you are into whole Phablet thing.

For Unrooting, Get KIES to flash Emergency firmware.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
I just got in the jump! Program myself.. I just got an s4 and hope to switch to the s5 when it releases.. Let us know how it works out for you!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Naturesretard:
moto x looks ok, but if i'm not mistaken it has no external sd. That's my biggest drawback. I don't trust ROM as a storage device. it tends to fail or can be accidentally wiped.

s4 wasn't even that big of an upgrade from the s3, but the phablet doesn't seem like a bad idea. I kinda like that it's both a phone and a mini tablet. So much screen real estate. But idk how it would work with aosp and the like as far as spen features.

Looking into projected phones for 2014 tmo based, I don't see anything too enticing. Really sad the N5 has no sd slot or I wouldn't even be asking
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Phablets like NOTE have some of the coolest roms I have seen. Do a quick search on their forum. Yeah I know lack of SD card can be a trouble, but you do know you can take online Nandroids to a PC right ?

FWIW I did hear good things about some of the LG offerings.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Naturesretard:
Yeah, but it's just the fact that flash memory fails. I understand that's what an SD is, but ever since i made a mistake of wiping my internal data I put everything on my sd. Not to mention it's significantly bigger. I just dont like being limited like that.

I'll take a look, I still have yet to decide but today is my upgrade date.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Naturesretard:
So my question now is do I have to unroot before I swap or can I just take it in?

If I have to unroot, can somebody point me please in the direction of t999L stock thread?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Hi guys -

So I saw in one of the 4.4 ROM threads that someone had used the Battery Calibration app from the Play Store and they claimed it seriously helped their battery life on the geespr. I decided to look at the app in the Store, and I started reading the reviews. I'm perplexed - - many people gave five star reviews claiming it significantly improved their battery life, while others said it did nothing, and a few even said it made their battery WORSE. Then there's the few who have said that wiping the battery stats file (the function that the app fulfills) can't possibly make a difference to your battery life because it only affects how Android reports the battery info. Still further, some say that the battery stats are ALREADY wiped when you flash a new ROM or even just unplug your charger.

So how about it, guys? Can we get a definitive answer about this? Surely our talented devs know the truth?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
I've been confused by the same thing. I usually recommend doing it when switching between roms. While I can't give you a definite answer, I have also read that wiping the batterystats.bin file does nothing. This thread here says it does absolutely nothing and explains why. That being said, I am one of the people who have noticed significant increases in battery performance from it - which is why I recommend it. Apparently it shouldn't work though! So now the real question is, why the hell did my battery performance increase to such a high degree afterwards, if it does nothing? I didn't use the app, I just deleted the file once my phone hit 100%.

That thread I posted states it is clearly a placebo, and is even backed up by google. It won't hurt so I still do it because like I said Ive noticed an increase. Now Im completely unsure as to why that increase has taken place.

The app also says to let your phone drain to 0% and then recharge uninterrupted back to 100%. It says that it isn't necessary but helpful. Now this could help your battery IF it was a nickel based battery. Since ours in Lithium based, it can actually hurt performance and shorten your batteries life span.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
This is a real conundrum :\ and it's going to bug the heck out of me.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Yeah, it appears as if it is simply a placebo. That thread is clear on what that file does and it shouldn't affect performance. Perhaps my increases happened because of changes in charging that just happened to coincide with wiping that file? What I do know is that I was regularly getting 15 hours or so with moderate use. Afterwards it doubled. The longest this battery has lasted for me was a little over 30 hours on a full charge.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
It must just be a combination of factors then...which would explain why some people say it helps and some people say it hurts. Seems there's no real clear trend. Thanks for your replies
[Sprint LG Optimus G] I-IoLLoW:
Eh, no problem, thanks for asking. I've been telling people false info based on misguided observations - and that's never good. ;)

Touchdown "worth it" on n5 compared to Google's stock client? Other alternatives?

I like the stock client but 2 things are a slight let down.

1) I only want email when I need it. 1 hour refresh is too often. Once a day is better. Never isn't an option because calendar doesn't like that

2) swipe deletes email. I can turn it off. In outlook I use macros to "archive" emails. Would be nice if swipe acted like Gmail swipe but folder programmable.

I've been looking at other apps and touchdown looks great. For those of you using it on your n5, what are your experiences? I have no problems paying for apps and im aware there is a trial. I will be trying it shortly when I have some time. What I really love to hear though, is how much it changed your "lives"

I personally haven't used Touchdown, but I have a couple techs in my department who swear by it.

I'm basically 24/7 (sys admin) so all my email is push. I've honestly never even looked at how long you could set sync times for, so I was surprised that the longest most apps will let you go is one hour. That's just crazy.

MailWise has a "never" sync option that might work for you. It also has a bunch of options available when you swipe like delete, move, star. Nothing programmable unfortunately, but still better than just delete.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yeah it was certainly once a day on aosp jellybean, so its a recent change.

I'm the opposite to you. I don't need or get alerts. I just use my personal device if i'm halfway to a machine and i've forgotten where it is exactly... or if I need to contact another user. I'm a really "on demand" kinda guy ;)

Before you pay for an app like Touchdown, try CloudMagic, it's a fairly new application that is now finally available on Android!

I've tried just about every replacement email out there including Touchdown, and as far as I'm concerned CloudMagic is by far the best one yet (especially for ActiveSynce/Corporate Email). The interface is extremely clean and it has swipe to delete. Also the search function is really good.

It's available on the PlayStore.:good::good:

Try Moxier Mail

I've been using Moxier Mail (on Play store, I'd post the link but I'm not allowed to do that yet...) for years and have never needed anything else. Not sure about the swipe to delete/archive thing, but syncing is very flexible. I set mind up to do push between 7am-7pm Mon-Fri and to only check once per day on the weekends.

Moxier also does Outlook contact syncing. Last I checked the stock app doesn't, and this was one of the big selling points for me. Because I'm lazy, and don't want to enter all of those email addresses in two places...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The stock app does GAL lookup and activesync does incorporate corporate contacts into contacts. I'd prefer pretty much just lookup though. I don't want contacts :)
