What is weird is I never had any freezing issues, but now I just experienced a moment when I woke up the screen and I saw I had a notification and I just couldn't swipe down to see it. I also couldn't unlock my screen. To fix, I had to put my screen to sleep and after a couple seconds, it worked. This just happened with the newest update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bryan2894:
I rarely get any stuttering. I may have fixes for the underrun issue in the next update.

That freezing issue seems to be affecting a lot of other devices also.

Has anyone been getting short hangs that lasts 5 to 20 seconds where the screen goes non-responsive?

Yes, I was getting those, once or twice a day usually. I think (without looking at a logcat) that there was an OOM issue, and the system was killing and restarting the framework. I'm on 4.3 Beta1 now, we'll see if it's any better.

---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

I got the OTA notification, downloaded and installed, so far so good. Thanks! Hover is pretty cool!

The 1080p record is perfect, thank you so much!:D I tried playing music and I do still get the quick stuttering with the LPA underrun error after a few minutes, but everything is so good that it doesn't bother me.

I knew I shouldn't have set up another rom knowing Bryan was going to put out another update. Had to switch because the screen freezing was driving me bananas. But damnit I have to try this! 4.4.3 and hover? To awesome to pass up.

Let's see how it goes! :good::D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TheCybertronian:
It's still 4.4.2 it's pa version 4.3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:

Natural progression as they add features they up the version 4.0 was initial kk release 4.1 I forget 4.2 was peek 4.3 is hover
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
While I haven't had the screen freeze yet, I think I may have something that could cause it. Anytime I boot up the rom just before it shows the lockscreen, the boot animation will show a random color horizontal line just above the PA circle. It can be anywhere from green to purple. I cleaned flash and it still does it on every boot up. It doesn't show up once the lockscreen comes on but for a good second it's there. This was present on the last update too. Hope that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Noticed this as well. Glad to see you haven't had any freezes yet. Keeps my hopes up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] OnlySilver:
how is bluetooth on this rom? is it stable or does it have problems like du and others?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Always been rock solid. I was just running DU before coming back to try out the the new build and so far it hasn't dropped. Even with previous builds, rarely dropped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] OnlySilver:
Thanks downloading now & really? for me the current DU build has just been dropping constantly I can barely get it to connect for 5 min. Maybe I flashed it wrong...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
I have had one screen freeze on 4.3b1. BT is relatively stable. The other day I had 3 devices paired and communicating, and it worked, but shortly after BT crashed and I had to reboot to get it back. Normally though I am connected to my Pebble all day without issue, and it connects to my car stereo mostly without issue.

Nice. Hover was def. Too short. Updated perfectly via ota.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
Updated, thanks! I must be dense though, how do I configure it to ignore IME notifications? I can't for the life of me find anywhere to set that.

I've had one freeze up with b2 similar to with beta1, except that it completely locked up this time and I had to hard reboot, the other times it would just restart the UI. No complaints though, just sayin.

I hope the hove notification timeout is going to be a configurable option, because right now the extended timeout added in the last update is *extremely* annoying. I'm going to turn off the feature (even though I love the idea, the implementation doesn't work for me), hopefully it will get fixed.

Been meaning to post this but I have been too busy with work. Has anyone else had an issue with hangouts video calling or Skype? Neither will connect. This was on the last build.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kiedlywiedis:
Can't find Beta 4 on Goo, and when I use AOSPAL Chrome tells me the file is malicious and blocks it.. Not too hard to get around in settings, but just letting you know that that's happening, for whatever reason.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bryan2894:
Goo was down, so builds weren't uploaded there. You can also ignore that warning, it's a false positive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kiedlywiedis:
Figured it out, just relaying the information so others won't have to download it twice like I did :-/

It's entirely possible I did it wrong, but I don't think it worked.. I still experienced a freeze on the lock screen shortly after.

I used ES File Explorer, went to Root Exploerer -> delete system apps -> deleted the apps, and then re-installed them from Play Store. Is there a better way to do it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
All the fix says is remove them and then install them from play store without putting the files in /system/app. It might be something in the Gapps as both apps are included in the pa_gapps packages which installs them to that folder.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kiedlywiedis:
Yeah, it wasn't too terribly descriptive..

Anyway.. I don't think ES was letting me do exactly what I wanted anyway, so I dug up an .apk of CM File Manager which is what I'm used to using, and will try that out this time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Any issues thus far?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kiedlywiedis:
I still seem to be having problems waking the device every now and then.. I don't know if it's the same issue, but basically the hardware lights will come on but the screen stays blank. When it finally comes to it acts like there's been a system UI reset, so I assumed it was. Either that, or the screen will wake up normally but be frozen for a couple of seconds. :-/

However.. I'm still weary that I haven't done it right in the first place. I noticed when trying to administer the fix, even before I using Root Exploerer to remove the two apps.. those two apps aren't actually even in system/app for me. They only showed up when I went into Root Explorer and clicked delete system apps, but that didn't tell me where they were installed. The only thing in system/apps that is close is GoogleHome.apk, but that poster said there should be Google Search and Google Now Launcher. So, I'm not sure. I'm apparently missing something somewhere here..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bryan2894:
Ok, instead of what I mentioned before, try the patch below and see if it helps with the SystemUI crashes.

Patch here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I was wondering as I mentioned it before, but could the random horizontal coloured line before the rom is fully boot up have anything to with this glitch? I only noticed it with this rom so I'd thought I'll mention it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bryan2894:
I doubt it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Ok thanks. I just noticed that the stock governors are listed now in Peformance. Maybe his setting was interactive as the delay backlit is the main issue. I am on the ondemand so I won't flash the .zip unless I have a problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dgoby:
Perfect. No more freezes. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Just our of curiosity since I haven't had any freezes, what governor were you on? Thanks [MENTION=2107489]bryan2894[/MENTION], I just listened to music and no stuttering! Also using this rom while playing games are so smooth. I was wondering, how do you edit the music effects using MusicFX? I ported over DSP Manager and Apollo, but am still getting Headset errors from DSP Manager, so just want to know how to adjust the effects.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dgoby:
I'm using the kernel that came with it. As far as music and effects, I use Poweramp Pro. No issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kiedlywiedis:
I've tried both interactive and ondemand and didn't notice a difference in terms of freezing. Switching to ondemand is usually one of the first things I do, but in this ROM interactive doesn't seem to act up like it does in CM based ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
So happy to read this. Downloading now.

And thanks Bryan for the patch!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Aside from the one time had to reboot for Bluetooth everything is great after the patch. No more freeze ups.

If the occasional reboot is needed for BT and that's it then this easily the best ROM we have. So nice to have stability again. Thanks so much Bryan.

PA 4.3 Beta 6 SystemUI FC?

I just updated to the latest Beta 6 and when I play music in Google Play Music, I get a SystemUI FC when I pull down the notification bar and try to pause. This is the first time I used the OTA to update and I allowed it to Wipe both Caches. Anyone else? This time I didn't port Apollo or DSP Manager from CM and the Equalizer is working in Google Play Music.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bryan2894:
Its a common bug in beta6. Try toggling hover (off and on) and see if it helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dgoby:
That worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Thanks. The first time it didn't work when I turned on and off hover but when I turned on hover, paused the song and switched hover off, it paused without FC.

Reboot loop

Last night my phone rebooted while docked and charging. It then got stuck in the boot animation. I held the power button to restart it, but the boot loop persisted. I got out of it when I removed the battery and booted up again. I was on BETA4 at the time with the fix for unlock freezes that was posted a few pages back. I am on BETA6 now so maybe the issue is already resolved.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dgoby:
Is anyone having their battery drain quicker with beta 6 then with the previous builds or is it just me?

Edit: Forgot to mention that now when you turn your phone off and on, certain apps disappear of the home screen. They used to not do that.

I had this problem with 4.3 BETA7 and the newest 4.4-RC1 Build. I flash the rom and Gapps, then install Nandroid Manager to restore my apps (not data,) texts, mms, and WiFi hotspots. I reboot to finish the restore process and it shows the Samsung logo and then hangs on a black screen, never even showing the PA boot animation. If I fiddle with taking out the battery and rebooting the phone, I eventually can get it to boot. Once the phone is booted after the Nandroid Manager restore, then it reboots fine. Any ideas what would cause this?

UPDATE 1: I've been messing with it for a half hour on RC1 and still can't get it to boot. I am going to wipe, reflash, and restore one item at a time, rebooting between to see if I can find the problem.

UPDATE 2: I installed some basic apps without using nandroid manager at all and it rebooted to a black screen. Out of curiosity, I let it sit there and after about 10 minutes, the PA boot animation started, then after sitting on that for about 5 minutes, the phone got to the lock screen. It seems like it's running normal speed now, but the first reboot is worst than the first boot, so something's gotta be out of whack somewhere. I used the PA Micro Modular Gapps, so the apps I installed were Google Chrome, Google Keyboard, Google Camera, Play Services Update, and Hangouts.

I have a few apps installed on my sd card. After flashing RC1, all the apps on my sd card are no longer available. When I try to move apps to the sd card, it says there is insufficient storage. I can read my sd card through the documents app, so I don't think it's an issue of the sd card going bad. The app tells me there is 10+ gb of unused space. I can see what files are on it. I can just re-install the apps to internal storage, but I am wondering if there is a better solution. My system partition is getting full to where I had to downgrade to micro Gapps.

Wifi issues

I am experiencing some wifi issues. When on my home wifi network, some apps can't utilize the data connection. It seems inconsistent how often the wifi doesn't work and how many apps it affects. The ones most affected are Google Now and Gmail. Sometimes other apps work and other times more apps (Feedly, Eye in the Sky weather, browsers) cannot access data either. I don't spend enough time on other networks to notice if this is specifically a response to my network or all wifi. No other device has any problems on my network so I think it's a PA bug.

edit: Should have searched first. It seems like it's an issue from Google's side. I guess I will just turn off wifi until they figure it out.

Also Google Camera won't allow Video mode to activate. It just pops up "Can't connect to the camera." I was reading somewhere about the extra RAM may be causing it as the Heap for the Camera was reduced. [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] was mentioning this a few days.

Fix for Camera - RC2

There was an issue with the Camera due to the heap changes for the extra RAM. I've reset them back to how they were before which should fix the camera.

Flash the updated kernel below for the fix.

Download: http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=6956
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sultanxda:
During my initial memory map tests, I found that 10MB was the smallest that the camera heap could be while still maintaining full camera functionality, so I set the camera heap to 10MB. However, it appeared that this was too little memory, so I increased the camera heap size by 6MB, so it is now 16MB in my kernel (originally it was 18MB). The other change I made to my memory map that isn't on Gerrit is that I increased the SF heap's size by 16MB for a total of 64MB of SF memory (in the Gerrit commit it's currently set at 48MB). The reason for this is that someone posted a kernel log that indicated that the SF heap ran out of memory and caused graphical glitches (according to the log, the SF heap only needed ~512KB of more RAM). Instead of increasing the SF heap in size by a few MB, I increased it by 16MB to make sure that it never runs out of memory again and that it is large enough to support newer versions of Android. I'll update my Gerrit patch tomorrow with these changes.

There's a very annoying bug in the Final version of PA that didn't exist in the last version I used (beta 4.3 v2). The bug is related to playing audio files such as with the google music player. If you try multitasking when listening to music on the phone with earphones, the music will start playing on the phone's speakers. Like I said, this problem did not exist in the previous version of PA and redoing a clean flash of the PA rom didn't resolve the problem. I've also tried using different music players and earphones but nothing seems to fix it. Anyone have any ideas?
