Trying to set a pattern screen lock on the latest build (build 5) fc settings app. Pin lockscreen works.

---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------

Still no luck with GPS lock on latest build after clean install (twrp 2.7.0.1)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
unable to boot after successful flash

I also cannot get this thing to boot :( After trying the first build released, as well as build 5, 4 different recoveries (2 of which were the newest philz and twrp) I'm officially out of ideas on how to get this beast up and running. Any ideas would be much appreciated!! :confused:

I've been able to reflash back to my previous rom just fine, so I'm not stuck, but I would love to get on that 4.4.2 goodness :)

**EDIT** I'm trying to download the rom again. I must have missed a release at some point this morning. I noticed the first build 5 I downloaded was titled t0ltevzw_signed_build5.zip. I guess when I downloaded it earlier this morning, there wasn't a BLOAT/DEBLOAT version, just the rom link and SU link. I'll update once I try some more when I try some more testing!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Please confirm you did a complete wipe..including internal sdcard.. and you are on the latest, t0ltevzw_signed_build5_DE-BLOATED.zip..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Actually the version I downloaded was just build5. I guess I got it before the bloated and debloated versions were posted. Will try clean flash again and let you know.

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 PM ----------

Okay, clean flashed (2x wipe cache, dalvik, internal, data, factory reset) debloated version. Still FC on pattern lockscreen and no GPS lock (maps app and sportstrack live running app which uses GPS).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Please use Gps toolbox from play store and see if you acquire satellite locks.. and can you pull a log for pattern lockscreen bc I have no problems with it here...

Edit: I do on Pattern stand by..

Whenever we get a stock release, it reminds me why I root, and spend hours upon hours screwing around with my phone.

You developers are gods. Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
GPS toolbox reports 0/0 for satellite.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Can you pull a log please.. And just checking, you have Location services ON.. you are on VZW I605?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Location services are on in gps only mode and yes, i605.

Not familiar with pulling a log. Can you provide instructions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
My GPS works fine, but I get a FC when I open "Where am I" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ejelta.whereami or try to enable location in alarm clock.

No Xposed installed...yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Are you sure your location is being set by the gps and not WiFi or cell towers?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Yup. Airplane mode, and I don't think GPS Status relies on any other source. I got 13 satellites in about 4 seconds.

It's a good question though. Probably 3/4 of the folks on here don't have a clue about signal location.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Hmm, so don't know why it's not working for me. I even restored a 4.3 TW (sophisticated rom), acquired a GPS lock and rebooted into recovery (like have to on aosp roms) and installed debloated version and still no GPS lock (and FC on pattern lock screen). Which recovery are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Philz. I didn't get fancy, just used their automatic wipe.

I've been using it for close to a year, and have NEVER had a problem, despite not updating it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
I installed with twrp 2.7.0.1. Everything other than the GPS works. Do you have a link for philz so I can try that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Fixed.. Flash in recovery..Thanks to [MENTION=5076723]redskinsfan[/MENTION] for reporting..

I'm getting a lot of reboots. Not modules... Every time I tried copying the download yo my external card it would reboot midway through it. Had to settle for a dirty flash. Rebooted on me once on my way home shortly after flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Are you on the current build? If not flash it.. Haven't had a random reboot all day.. and if your sitting at a computer plug it in and run a log through adb please...

In cmd prompt:

adb devices (ENTER) (make sure you grant it permission)
adb logcat -d > Reboot.txt

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JoeyDVDZ:
So here's an odd one... I usually watch a video in MX Player on my phone, then delete from within the program. Since 4.4.2 I can no longer delete anything from my external SD card within the phone, even with root explorer. I can't set permissions on the video folder either. It's very weird. I can delete from Win7 when I connect my phone as a storage volume.

I get a message about kitkat not allowing delete access from within Android. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Clean flashed in both twrp 2.7.0.1 and Philz 6.41.6. In both cases, did full wipe (in twrp wiped cache, dalvik, data, system, internal and also wiped user data [I think that's what it's called - where you have to type yes before proceeding]; in Philz did the wipe for installing a new ROM). Then installed the debloated build 5 and rebooted. Set up accounts and then rebooted to install supersu 1.99. Then rebooted. No gps and FC on pattern. Rebooted into recovery and installed both fixes, wiped cache, and rebooted. Still no GPS lock and FC on pattern lock. Identical outcomes on both twrp and Philz. Also, same outcome on the debloated version and original build 5 version that was posted.

Okay, I'm not too familiar with it, but did download it, hit the record option, switched to settings and tried to set a pattern lock. Got the FC. Went to notification and stopped recording. So, now I have a text file. Where should I send that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
AirDroid gives me a popup stating that 4.4 may not support altering extSD files.

Sure as snot, I couldn't upload a file and had to plug in.

That is a real relevant question. Mine jumps around sometimes too. Uninstalled maps and then installed it fresh from play store.

Don't remember if that helped some.

Definitely helps to not have any overlays going on over the maps, and holding the phone still.

Dunno what else, so glad you posted, as now some others might have advice.

I've had the issue at times, but it seems to vary depending on whatever version is used. For example, the current version is jittery, but less so than the last. However a few versions back it worked perfectly for me. I think it has more to do with whatever "features" Google is now implementing than our device or particular version of Android we're running. Just look at the comments for it at the play store and you'll see we aren't alone and that it's been an ongoing issue for some time.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary Moto:
Hi guys,

I registered specifically for this question, and I hope to find the answer here.

My understanding is that I can use Google Now voice commands offline "as long as it was for something that doesn't need an internet connection to perform" like setting alarm and opening apps.

and for that purpose I have to install the appropriate language under "offline speech recognition", which I already have it pre-installed on my phone.

The issue here is that while I'm connected to the internet via wifi, Google Now works fine, but the moment I turn wifi off and go offline, Google Now stops working! It still recognize the hot word trigger "OK Google" but after listening to my command it shows this response "Didn't catch that. Try speaking again".

I turn wifi on, and it works again! even though I used the same exact voice command!

I have language pack pre-installed on my Moto G "running Kitkat", and everything seems to be in order, so why isn't it working offline? Is there something I missed here?

Here is the screenshots where you'll see that everything checks out, yet no Google Now offline!

First the scenario when I'm still online via wifi, everything works fine:

***

Now, when I turn off wifi and go offline:

***

My settings:

*** I have English (US) pre-installed

*** I tried to post the images but I got an error bc I'm new user and have to have 10 posts to post links here :(

I hope someone would explain to me what's wrong here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgiosandros:
Same huge problem

I have the exact same problem.

You would think that an offline task as setting an alarm must be possible.

This is a huge problem as I am not connected to the internet 24/7.

Hello,

After i turned off my xperia m and booted it up again i gained bootloop so I decided to flash stock 4.1 or 4.3 but flashtool reclaimes me with that :

If someone has a solution please respond me as fast as you can :) I appreciate that a lot !

[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
I have used Kit Kat for a month now and have tested Retail and O2 versions and therefore there shouldn't be any problems with a wrong flash and in both versions i have experienced micro stuttering everywhere ranging from Notification bar to going through home screens, I haven't experienced this with jelly bean as it runs more stable. I haven't noticed a difference in Network connection and drops or anything as i never experienced in Kit Kat too. Like i said it runs a bit more stable so I would flash back Jelly bean and wait for 4.4.3 or 4.5 as it should be more Stable.
[Moto G General] diecast:
You are so right! I want to go back to 4.3! Motorola made you to install the update and this is so annoying! I hope 4.4.3 will change the perfomance a bit or else the other way is to return to 4.3

Στάλθηκε από το XT1032 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
Yep, i unlocked my boot loader and tried the kitkat versions but nothing helps so i have returned to jelly bean and i am so much happier! I also quickly rooted and uninstalled the "Motorola OTA" so that i dont get pushed the update and then i unrooted the device and flashed normal boot logo so everything seems normal! The only place you can check is my bootloader which has Code 3 or something so i am techincally totally stock right now! On top of that i uninstalled all the random google apps such as google + so my phone feels a tad bit snappier!
[Moto G General] rugerredhawk:
I really don't notice any issues with stuttering or poor performance with 4.4 on my moto go, but whatever floats your boat.
[Moto G General] liveroy:
Why are you using Android in first place if you're so picky?

So random.....
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:

[Moto G General] SickBeast:
Guys try the art runtime and I guarantee you will never go back to jelly bean again.
[Moto G General] liveroy:
Why so mad brah?!?Simple, logical questions drive you out of your creep?

Forget it, really none of my business or anyone else's as it seems....
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
That isn't a logical question as everyone has their own taste. Im picky which is why i use an android, i can un install all the bloat ware apps that come with the device and i can modify to however i want the phone to be like which is what I can't do with IOS and WP8. I have owned all three and have ended up selling IOS and WP8 as customisation is limited. Sorry if I came across rude as i had an exam today so I was a bit lol.
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
Nah, i uninstall everything i dont use so there is hardly anything running in the background and therefore the CPU can do everything just as fast with Dalvik.
[Moto G General] SickBeast:
No.
[Moto G General] Marco_nx:
I went back to 4.3 too, for some reasons:

1) Display is more saturated

2) Performance is better, 18000+ in Antutu (I´ll try performance governor later) against 17300 in 4.4.2

3) No pink tint in photos when using led flash

4) No exposure bug in front facing camera

5) Real world performance is way better, there´s no annoying loading while opening apps like settings, play music, gallery, many oher apps open faster

6) Signal strenght is milles better

Mine is XT 1032 Retail Brazil
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
Also with 4.4.2 i had a problem with front facing camera where there would be these weird imperfections in the viewfinder but in the actual images it isnt there e.g. Flickering
[Moto G General] @rbiter:
How are you technically totally stock? Are you one of those peeps that says like, literally and quote unquote all the time? Bootloader unlocked is bootloader unlocked and not stock.

how did you guys go back to 4.3 from kitkat?

i updated my phone as soon as i got it so i dont know what the performance is like on jb on this phone.

im willing to try it if its as easy as flashing a zip or something so i can restore my nandroid backup afterwards
[Moto G General] diecast:
Perfectly right! I want to go back to 4.3 but i find the procedure difficult! And i think that it is risky...

Be careful to delete the correct lines (it´s not difficult), dont double click flashall.bat ( press shift, right click in a empty space ,choose open command window ,type flashall.bat /eu and press enter)

I did this procedure because my download was in a .tar.gz format. Maybe .xml.zip is even easier

Remember to backup everything you need, because your sd card will be erased

Everything went fine for me

I found out that dashclock widget was causing my launcher to stutter on my home screens, after removing it, there is no problem any more, i had 3 extensions, maybe that was the problem, who knows :)
[Moto G General] Jamielawther:
Surely if the stuttering is as "micro" as you suggest, it doesn't affect you in any way.

I completely disagree. KitKat is much smoother and more responsive than Jellybean at least in my case anyway, so perhaps the issue is with your device.
[Moto G General] NextGenGTR:
Micro stuttering is worse then full on lag, as it is just annoying as f* xD
[Moto G General] Faruko:
Mind if i ask what kind of "confirmation" is this ? because i sense that kitkat runs better for me, does that confirm that kitkat should be better than jb ?
[Moto G General] SamsungAdmire:
kitkat is actually in performance(everyday use wise)

benchmark wise it might depend. as a nexus 4 video showed that 4.2, 4.3, vs 4.4 and 4.2 did the best i think

the only thing that anybody should miss is the webview from jellybean (text reflow)

other browsers do it but aosp browser does it the best and smoothest

better performance on art runtime

hey guys I m on kitkat and using art runtime which is better than dalvik. I am sure that you should use for better performance and bigger battery life.

[Moto G General] Nandeh:
Stock KitKat + ART + AeroKernel... And the phone runs as wind.
[Moto G General] fermasia:
Art is faster, it's a fact, since the prebuilt cache is bigger. But, as there are many compatibility issues with this new standard, depending on your apk load, your device can even become slower in some cases. It's about trying and seeing for yourself.

But stating that it's been proven that JB is faster than KK, is completely untrue (talking about the threads's title). You might like JB better, this free world, but there's evidence that at least in MotoG KK has a better performance under standard conditions (benchmarks).

Enviado desde mi Moto G mediante Tapatalk
[Moto G General] forgotter:
ART is better than dalvik. In dalvik many codes need to be executed by the CPU and in ART only those app codes which are for your specific platform are executed so practically your CPU needs to do more work with dalvik runtime and less work with ART and that's why ART's bit snappier. And yeah, ART increases your phone's battery life too.
[Moto G General] Lemagex:
I honestly don't think this thread should be titled "Confirmation" seeing as there's no fact, evidence, or proof listed anywhere at all and it's divided from opinion also..

Anyway, I've tried both, Kitkat 4.4.2 stock kernel Art runtime gets me better performance and a higher score on antutu and i dont suffer from the bugs people are mentioning. Although that may just be because mines XT1033...
