has anyone tried switching over to art from dalvik runtime and seen any benefit?

i did switch over to art (took almost 30min to reboot back) and when it rebooted the phone started to hang and very poor performance contrary to what i know that art runtime is better than dalvik runtime(both in battery and performance). [MENTION=4056424]kengnatural[/MENTION] is it because our phone has no official kitkat so the art is not working fine?
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
I tried. You should observe some performance gain, UI becomes a little bit smoother. But:

* first time when you switched to ART even after 30 minutes you get the UI, ART continues some preparing operations in the background. You should wait a little bit more until it finishes. After it phone becomes stable and smooth.

* open-gapps does not like ART, due to it everything hangs. Try to wipe your system and perform fresh install without gapps and switch to ART. If you do need gapps try to use pa_gapps, for example mentioned on OP, as it is ART compatible. Unfortunately the latest pa_gapps for KitKat I could found was pretty old.

* ART for KitKat (CM11 based on official KitKat) is an experimental feature you should not relay on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kher paandiyan:
Clean install solved the problem, now Temple Run 2 works flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] balindam bajpai:
yeah i guess i helped a lot.

after some time it became quite stable and performance and battery life both increased.

generally i dont flash gapps as i personally feel there is no need but this time i flashed the gapps mini package and i think it is creating some problems with the ART and if it had not been installed the phone might have performed a bit better.

anyways thanks for the help and one question-is there any way i can uninstall gapps(remove) with wiping the internal storage?
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
I don't know the automatic way for removing it, did not look for. Usually I wipe system partition and reflash again the ROM. But you can manually remove the gapps files from system partition. To find which files you have to remove you can open the flashable zip package of the gapps, see files and the update script.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] balindam bajpai:
no idea how what to change in update script?

if you can tell please and do u personally recommended to run this device on ART and whether or not it does harm the phone?

---------- Post added at 03:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 PM ----------

if you could just elaborate a bit more as i dont know what changes are to be made in the update script

and whether or not u personally recommend to use ART and if it could cause any harm to the device using it on regular basis?

Then flash cwm through odin

Then flash twrp https://ny1.androidfilehost.com/dl/...769/24352994023706353/recoveryTWRP28+f2fs.zip through odin

Installed RC2 package with TWRP

s7562 fast and every thing working

when i flashed 0160305-UNOFFICIAL-kylessopen-physical-primary

without wiping dalvik ,system,data

opend file manager it shows no internal & external memory

again flashed Stock Hun Firmware first using odin

cant boot and

stuck on samsung logo

i flashed this stock rom http://dl.sammobile.com/J19cRVsrLCo...VFZHS1pdTU0./S7562XXBMJ1_S7562OJVBMJ2_THR.zip via odine

http://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3_v3.10.7.zip

same problem stuck on samsung logo

i cant access recovery mode on s7562
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
No need to change any script.

You just need to extract and see the update script in order to find which file copied where. And just delete these files from that places.

I like how ART works, it requires less memory and it is a bit faster. Used it some time. But I don't recomend it for everyday use in CM11 because it is experimental in this version. Some programs can work incorrectly and there will be no support. If you use a constant set of programs, which works fine with ART and you don't install/uninstall new programs everyday, you can use it and enjoy a little performance gain. But if you experiment with new programs installing them everyday, I don't recomend it, because installing is very slow and buggy. Sometimes ART compile process is too slow and after some timeout install fails.

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 PM ----------

You are doing a lot of things and some of them seems to be not needed. Let's clarify you goals:

* You installed stock firmware through ODIN. The only reason for this is the MODEM part. So you could just flash Modem without using stock firmware.

* You flashed CWM in order to flash TWRP. Ok.

* You flashed TWRP. Fine. As soon as you installed TWRP recovery did you take backup in order not to begin everything from scratch? If you did it, you could start from this point if anything fail, not from scratch.

* Next, you installed RC2 package? Why??? In order to install the latest build you don't need to install any old package.

* You installed physical-primary build and then wanted to see internal memory. Why? The physical-primary build don't use emulated internal sdcard. Only external. I don't know why the external was also missing.

* Why you flashed again stock firmware, why did not reflash any working RC3+?

From my point of view, if you need to flash 20160305-UNOFFICIAL-kylessopen-physical-primary build, you need the following steps:

* Flash cwm through odin

* Flash twrp through cwm

* Take full backup (first backup, it is default working system, as you started from it)

* Flash modem

* Wipe everything besides sdcard

* Flash 20160305-UNOFFICIAL-kylessopen-physical-primary

* Reboot

* Configure system

* Reboot to recovery

* Take full backup (your second working system's backup)

* Optinally flash gapps

* Reboot and enjoy your rom.

Now if any problem happens you can restore your working and testing system any time, switch between them and forget about ODIN, CWM, stock firmware...

I'm not completely read[op] the first page [my mistake] sorry kengnatural

Q,Why you flashed again stock firmware,

A,when i flashed 0160305-UNOFFICIAL-kylessopen-physical-primary ,[My faulte]when i opend file manager it shows no internal & external memory

i have to flash Stock Hun Firmware first using odin through odin,i cant access recovery mode

then flashed cwm recovery using odin ,cant access recovery mode

then flashed http://dl.sammobile.com/J19cRVsrLCo...VFZHS1pdTU0./S7562XXBMJ1_S7562OJVBMJ2_THR.zip

cant access recovery mode

Q,you installed RC2 package? Why???

A, i flashed rc2 pakage in other s7562 and working no problem

my s7562 stuck on samsung logo and i cant access recovery mode
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
When you flash the stock firmware using odin, it overrides everything, recovery too. You could just open recovery, wipe old things and flash other rom or restore old system if you took backup. You potentially never need to use odin if you have got twrp working...

Now, try to reflash stock firmware uding odin to get working system. Forget about cwm, etc for a while until you don't stuck at samsung logo.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] GaloneG:

i wanna re-partition the device internal storage and resize system , do you have an idea ??? [MENTION=462282]kingn[/MENTION]atural :D
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
No idea to do this without PIT file. If you need space, safe method is using sdcard and switching to physical primary build.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] eng4r:
i have the pit file :D
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
This is not a safe method and it requires changing the mount points of the ROM itself. And of course it will not be compatible with stock ROM and older versions of CM11 build. I also don't have any idea if there is any need to change the TWRP also to support it.

My personal opinion: don't touch it, at least for a while. I solved the low internal memory problem for myself with physical-primary build. It works fine for me.

Edit: If you don't change the partition sequence and name but only their size, may be it will work. But I'm not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] aboudk52:
I wiped no change ?

So I formated an reinstated rom

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------

Is it stable and safe to install physical primary built ?
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] kengnatural:
I use it for several months. No problem. It is one of the legal android storage configurations:

https://source.android.com/devices/storage/config-example.html

If you don't remove or unmount your sdcard through settings when the system works, it is safe. Even if you unmount it through settings, correctly programmed applications will continue to work but applications which use sdcard without checking its existence may crash.

Note: if you flash physical-primary over normal build without wiping:

1) before flashing copy your emulated internal sdcard to the external sdcard

2) reboot to recovery and flash physical-primary build over old build

3) After rebooting load file manager and check if you have only one sdcard.

4) In the file manager go to /data/media directory and remove its content (you sould select Root Access Mode in your file manager for doing this).

You don't have to do these steps if you wipe everything and do fresh install.

The problem is that as [MENTION=5484648]KlinkOnE[/MENTION] said, nobody knows what will happen after changing the partition layout.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] KlinkOnE:
If anyone wants to try would be great.

Though i encourage everyone to not do it.

I would do the following:

-backup each partition

-pull pit from device

-open pit in edit mode and save without changing anything

-run odin using the (un)modified pit

something went wrong --> journey ends here

all good -->

-go on editing sizes of system and cache partition cause these are neighbors

-lets say take 200mb from cache and grow system by 200mb so that start and endpoints stay same

-run odin using the modified pit

something went wrong --> knowbody knows (try again ;))

all good -->

that would be cool

Be aware that the signature is lost either way when saving the new pit.

Could be that an unsigned pit isn't accepted by the device.

Also stock firmware might not be compatible with custom partition sizes.

You have thought about loosing your device and you are ok with it?

Don't forget to backup! At least the partitions that aren't recoverable with flashing bootloader modem etc..

what is a y cable-well it has total of three different leads/wires,one connected to phone similar to the charging port;2nd port looks like the port which the phone has where the charger is connected and the third where the pendrive is to be connected.

well so it works like this one side is connected to the phone,other to external power source(which can be a charger also), and the third where the pen drive will be fitted in.

hope you understand it.
