So it wont cause any issues with O2 UK Stock 4.4.4?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Geoning:
Shouldn't. But first do backup.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] nalab1:
Or, stock Vodafone UK 4.4.4?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Geoning:
It shouldn't too.

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/

The advantage of deodexing is in modification possibilities. This is most widely used in custom ROMs and themes. A developer building a custom ROM would almost always choose to deodex the ROM package first, since that would not only allow him to modify various APKs, but also leave room for post-install theming.

On the other hand, since the .odex files were supposed to quickly build the dalvik cache, removing them would mean longer initial boot times. However, this is true only for the first ever boot after deodexing, since the cache would still get built over time as applications are used. Longer boot times may only be seen again if the dalvik cache is wiped for some reason.

For a casual user, the main implication is in theming possibilities. Themes for android come in APKs too, and if you want to modify any of those, you should always choose a dedoexed custom ROM.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snest:
I have installed

LS-KK-v3.1-2014-06-23-i9300 few days before.

This ROM seems to be very good and stable.

It consumes less RAM .

But I face the following problems.

1. My Gallery, in Every Album, shows empty squares (photos? ) which are not actually existing in my device.

I delete them and after a while they are back again.

2. When I try to choose a ringtone for Notification or Alarm or Phone Call for a Contact, EVERY RINGTONE IS SHOWING 2,3,4 OR 5 TIMES.

Not all of them have a sound.

Any Help?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
Why is the Cyanogen team putting more focus on CM11 unopposed to CM11s which is supposed to be their unique software for the Oneplus One? They even rolled out a Nexus-esque rom just yesterday.

This move doesn't make sense to me from a marketing standpoint. One would think the best way for them to go is to make sure CM11s is bug free and then focus on CM11 or whatever else.

THIS IS NOT A RANT. I'm literally confused so please keep all negative comments to yourself.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bp328i:
I would think it's because CM11 is on more devices (many more) than CM11S
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuNKSioN:
there's only 1 phone that runs CM11S, where as almost every other phone has a build of CM11. There are even CM11 nightlies for the OPO if you would rather use that.

why would they focus all their efforts on one specific phone? THAT would not make good sense.

CM11S is meant to be a finished product. There will be stable finished builds in the future, but no nightlies.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester09:
From the Amount of bugs I can assure you that CM11s is far from finished.

I'm getting a better experience with CM11 + CM11S Apps. I'd recommend that.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I know it is meant to be a finished product, that's why I'm confused as to why they are still pushing the Nightlies so hard. Shouldn't CM11S be their main focus especially since this is their flagship?

Also isn't CM11 almost the same as CM11s except for subtle visual changes like the lock screen, etc? I would of thought that Cyanogen would of at least did CM11s nightlies.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuNKSioN:
I guess "finished" was the wrong word. what I meant was "stable ready for release". as in, no nightlies, snapshots, milestones, etc..

---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ----------

nightlies are simply made available. they aren't pushing anything. the code base is compiled on a "nightly" schedule, and if anyone wants it they can go get it.

CM11S is by no means a flagship for Cyanogenmod in any way. its just a version they compiled for the OPO. The OPO was meant to be the first marketable consumer phone running stock CM. No company anywhere is making "nightlies" available for consumer products.

is there something specific in a newer nightly that you want on your OPO, or do you just want "whatever is the newest I can get my hands on"? if that's the case, you can easily switch over to a CM nightly.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
From what I've read the Nightlies are more stable than CM11s. What I would definitely want is the stability. There is too many bugs on the stock ROM but at the same time I don't want to have to flash a custom ROM to get stability.

I do understand that this phone isn't officially released yet so I am grateful for beta testing the software.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Jack of Clubs:
They are the same thing. Cm11 has nightly builds that are for every device where features are added and bugs are fixed. They are not considered stable. There are also monthly milestone builds which are considered somewhat stable. Cm11s is based on milestone builds with added proprietary code. You should see cm11s updates no sooner than every two weeks and no later than ever month. Any sooner would be annoying.

Cyanogen and OnePlus are not the same company. OnePlus made a stock android ROM based on source code to get people to shut up about making gpe phone. It's not Google certified so it doesn't include Google services or the play store. It's not signed by cyanogen so it doesn't flash with out unlocking the bootloader and using a different recovery.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
It doesn't need to be certified by Google, its treated as a custom ROM and is not officially supported by the company. It has a separate gapps package to get Google Services/Play Store just like any other custom ROM.

Think of it as a 'reference rom' for other developers to get on the AOSP train if they choose to do so.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Jack of Clubs:
I'm aware. Is built from the cm source without the cm customizations.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickquest88:
can you dirty flash to regular cm, or is it different enough that we need to wipe the system?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soralz:
I do agree that CM11 nightly is much more stable than CM11s.

But I still like CM11 looks though. CM11s a bit weird for me. :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Man.:
OnePlus One will be getting a new version of CM11S very soon. And will get Android L one released also... why waste time on older versions? OP clearly has no business sense... There has already been one official OTA that fixed some things (nothing is broken on my OnePlus One, everything works great) There are also 4 or 5 official roms... flashing doesn't void warranty... so I'd say they're doing quite well actually.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
I've recently got myself a new (to me) car and I want to get a new stereo/head unit to go in it. I have no experience with ICE and don't want to make a costly mistake.

Here is what I would like to do, if possible:

Have my phone connect to the head unit automatically when I get into the car. This will require a head unit that has bluetooth, I presume? And Tasker to perhaps control this.

Have my phone go into car mode (again, Tasker I presume) and my screen to be mirrored to the head unit, automatically.

Be able to control my music app (Shuttle, but I don't mind using something else) using the steering wheel-mounted controls (forward, back, volume).

Display and be able to answer incoming calls using the head unit/car speakers. Without taking my phone out of my pocket. I presume the head unit will need some sort of mic or something.

Ideally use Google Now via the head unit, and Maps as well.

I probably could cobble together a reasonable working knowledge of all this stuff if I spent hours on the internet but when the resources of XDA are at my disposal, why not use them? I am sure there are some really clued-up people on this forum when it comes to ICE and connectivity, so if you can offer advice, or tell me where the flaw in my plan is, or help me to avoid pitfalls then please comment.

Also any recommendations on head units that aren't really expensive but incorporate the screen I would need into a double-DIN space in a 2009 Mitsubishi Colt and will do what I want it to do.

Very grateful! :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
Oh and the reason I've posted here is because I'd rather get the knowledge I need from people who have an N5 and who know about any problems there might be with this particular phone. I've watched a video on YouTube which showed a head unit working with the N4 and N7, but the N5 wouldn't connect to it :-O
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theesotericone:
What's your budget? You can find units that fit your criteria from 200 all the way up to 700. Most units will do what you require so I'd just go to a brick and mortar store and find one you like. All brands are pretty good nowadays. I've always been a fan of Alpine or Sony but again that's just preference.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
Tbh I don't know. Can I get something for £200? £300? I'm in UK.

Can you explain to me how the voice input part of it works, do all these head units have an integrated mic so I can answer calls?

Also, am I looking for something that has Miracast or MirrorLink? Or is there some other standard which the N5 uses to connect?

Sorry if I sound ignorant but I really don't know how it all works, and that's just the sort of customer that unscrupulous sales people LOVE walking in to their store!

Perhaps there's an internet site you can recommend that lays out the basics?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
Also, this is probably a stupid question, but can these type of units control your phone even while the phone screen is off? For instance I would want to play music from my phone without ever taking it from my pocket, or launch and run Maps from the head unit, with the phone screen off. Can that be done?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrc2:
On my tab its volume up (because it's 7-inch.) Glad you got recovery. Yes, superuser has to be flashed to root. Flashing will install the apk in the system partition and get the su binaries in place. Installing the apk won't because it cannot access the system partition. Once it is flashed, you will be rooted and can access the system and root partition.

yeah i think i unzipped it before i put it on the sdcard of the tablet. So all I had was the apk, I redownloaded the zip and flashed it and i think i'm all good now. Gonna try a rom now, any suggestions for a minimalistic rom tweaked for max performance?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrc2:
SlimKat is. Flash it and Slim Mini Gapps, reboot, do setup, reboot back into recovery and flash AA-Anykernel Slim Test2 and Vendor-Blobs for great performance and battery life. Recovery is volume up on the tab 10, it just looks like down because the volume buttons are reversed on that tab. If you boot into the system and push what you think (and I thought) is volume down, it will go up. I had this tab earlier and it was confusing :/

EDIT: after you flash SlimKat, you do not need to flash superuser or SuperSU. SlimKat is a rooted ROM.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrPhant0m:
Seeing as though there's no more BajaROM thread, I'll post this is in the general Q&A section. Of course, while I am running BajaROM, I can't be sure that the ROM had anything to do with it.

Something weird definitely happened to my phone last night... at exactly 2:28am, it would seem.

When I woke up this morning, my live background changed to a different static background, my normal keyboard (thumb keyboard) was replaced by the samsung one, my clock widget was frozen at 2:28, the battery level read 87% (after charging all night), and hasn't changed all morning, even after an hour commute of phone calls and media play... tasker had inexplicably turned off... and I'm still finding odd things.

I restarted my phone, and my clock is more current now, but my clock widget and the statusbar clock are a minute apart for a portion of every minute (like they're offset by <60sec) Tasker still didn't turn on like it should have, until I started the app to spark it... as if it was the first time I installed it. (It does the same thing when I restore the app through Titanium Backup on a new ROM install)

I checked to make sure I still have root by starting Titanium Backup... I have root, but titanium backup says it's the free version now... when I normally have the Donate (Pro) version. I had to reinstall it from the Google Play store

I have a few nightly backup/refresh items scheduled in Titanium Backup at 2am and 2:30am... so I wonder if something went wrong.

If anyone has experienced similar issues, leave a comment.

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Afro Samurai:
This won't help you understand what's going on but for what it's worth I'm running Baja 16.1 and it's just fine. I don't use any exposed or wanam modules. Think that might be the culprit? That is if you run any..:confused:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrPhant0m:
I do run some (several) xposed mods and wanam/gravity box mods, and have been for quite some time on several devices. A string of bizarre events like that hasn't happened though.

It is strange, though, that I did install XToast just last night. This is an xposed mod that gives you more control over the toast messages received under different circumstances. Could be the culprit... not sure. I think I'll disable it and go back to BurntToast, a mod that does similar stuff.

Maybe switching from one to the other borked something?

Thanks for the input.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armadiljo:
I also experienced some weird behaviour. I do suspect Titanium tp cause the problems, but I'm not yet 100% sure...

Not all of my issues are completely the same as yours, but still similar.

First of all, my device is a Galaxy S3 mini, CM11 installed, rooted, XPosed installed with several modules (but no Gravity or Wanam). All partitions are in ext4, external SDcard is in exFAT.

(1) root: During startup, Titanium asks an awful lot of times for boot access. Sometimes it does for 50-100 times. In the end, devices will still be rooted but startup takes a long time.

(2) startup: As mentioned: takes really long. With EVERY reboot, I get the "Android is upgrading..." message for about a minute.

This issue is solved by clearing all .odex-files with Lucky Patcher.

(3) Keyboard. I used Google Keyboard as my standard keyboard, but a while after installing/flashing (10 minutes to an hour) Google Keyboard uninstalls spontaneously (without interaction). This happened with all Keyboard versions I tried, in system and in data. And with or without it checked as primary keyboard in language & input settings. (because of those issues I switch to SwiftKey)

(4) Background: Background (custom wallpaper) disappears after a crash, and instead I get a static generic Android wallpaper. Also, every time I try to set my wallpaper back, device instantly reboots. (soft reboot which crashes and goes into a full reboot)

(5) Clock freeze: I've had those clock freezes a few times, but months ago. I think in my case it was due to some bad code in the ROM, not Titanium.

(6) Root: Even though in SuperSU settings I asked to remember autorisation, and automatically grant access, but after every boot, I had to grant permission to all apps using root access over and over again.

In order to try to solve my problems, I changed a few things.

- Google Now Launcher + XGelSettings instead of Nova Launcher. This didn't solve any of these problems, but I do like GNL more now :)

- I'm using Titanium Backup 6.1.5.4 stead of latest version, installed as a data app.

- I'm using SuperSU 1.98 instead of latest version, flashed as a system app.

- I'm using an older ROM version (CM M5 instead of CM M9/latest)

Most of my issues are gone now. I didn't check for (3) anymore.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrPhant0m:
Thank you for the information. I kind of suspect that Titanium Backup had something to do with my problems, as well, since it happened right around the time that a scheduled action was to take place. I think that TB was still in the middle of the previous operation at 2am when it tried to start the next one at 2:30. This has never caused a problem before, but maybe it was at the wrong place at the wrong time, as odd as that may sound.

Your problems seem to be a more constant hassle. Especially the parts about granting SU access several times. I'm leaning toward the fact that your external SD card might interfere a little. External memory is handled a lot differently in kitkat builds, which CM11 is. In newer custom ROMs, there are attempts made to "fix" it... but in your case, maybe it was counter-intuitive.

The issue is that, to paraphrase... Kit-Kat imposes a lot of data access restrictions on external media. So... if you create a file in one app... you can't modify that file in another. That's a bastardization of the whole thing, I'm sure... so look up the particulars from someone more qualified than I. haha

If I were you (and I had a few hours to burn)... I'd back up everything on your external card and your internal memory (a good idea in any case),

clear EVERYTHING and reinstall the latest versions of everything without the external card in your phone. See if you still have issues. If you don't, then the card might be a problem. Then, wipe the card and put it back in your phone, and let your phone reformat it. At that point, copy your backed-up card data to your external card in whatever way is best to keep KitKat from messing it all up again.

Luckily, I don't have issues with my external card, except for the fact that, say, if I want to put a picture of my son as my wallpaper or notification shade background... if I pick a file from the card, it won't load after I restart my phone. For stuff like this... make sure that you put the pic ON YOUR PHONE STORAGE. Consider it like this... you wouldn't have a lot of luck if your PC's desktop background or screensaver ran from the CD drive, as opposed to your hard drive.

[MENTION=3085711]DrPhant0m[/MENTION]

I already went to that process of backing up, wiping and so on. Actually, I already did it twice.

The first time, I cleaned my device, installed latest versions of everything, went through the restoring process. But most of my mentioned issues still existed.

The second time, I cleaned my device again, did about exactly what you mentioned, but I restored some older versions of the ROM, SuperSU and Titanium Backup Pro. And right now, my issues are gone!

Actually, I didn't realise there are so many KitKat-related issues with SD. Maybe my pictures indeed are/where stored on a faulty SD. But it's reformatted now, and it works. And I actually don't know if that picture is stored internally or externally, I selected the picture with/by Google Photo. No idea how it handles is :)

I'm not saying Titanium certainly will be the bad guy, but I'm quite sure it plays it's part in it. Other issues are caused by the custom ROM. In the last few months, developers of that ROM don't give a **** about solving issues, and introduce one new feature after the other, most of them still highly experimental. Maybe that's another problem I can't control at all :)
