Yes, it'll do that every time you restart the phone

Yes. This is normal. This is where Android's optimization occurs (now with handy "Optimizing <x> of <y>" count to let you know what's happening) instead of prolonging the boot video. If it doesn't need to do that it just skips straight to launching the launcher, I guess...
Noted from observation, not from source code
My Galaxy Nexus only started doing this after both selecting "Encrypt Phone" and replacing my recovery image with Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.5.
It should not be happening on every boot unless you are a chronic flasher.
Mine phone did that on 4.0.1. On 4.0.2 that is gone

I got the "Android is Upgrading" when I zip-aligned all of the apks on my phone for the first time in GummyNex. So far it's only done it once, maybe twice in the last few weeks.
i only notice this after a dalvik/cache wipe. Atleast thats the only time it does this running 4.0.3 on my sgs fascinate.
Mine does this on every reboot, but I'm still on 4.0.1 where, based on earlier posts, that sounds more normal...
Only displays for a couple of seconds and nothing bad seems to happen as a result!
Mine started doing this after installing Google Wallet with that first crazy workaround. I hated it and restored my nandroid backup then used the apk that came out later and haven't seen that screen since. It definitely isn't normal to have it happen every time, except maybe in 4.0.1 I guess...
I just got this on 4.0.3 after wiping cache. Does anyone know what is actually doing. Rebuilding the cache?

Bump. My VzW GNex is doing this every boot. This has got to be fixable. Has anyone actually determined what is happening here? VzW Galaxy Nexus w/stock Android 4.0.2, rooted.

Fix what? Nothing is broken. The phone is making new app caches. That's it. There is no problem and there is no fix because nothing is broken.
its normal with my htc hd2 and nexushd2 v1.1 by tytung? =/

Me three, I saw it on every bootup until I got 4.0.2, now I never see it.
However, my phone's uptime is currently at 7days 38 mins and not lagging or otherwise needing a reboot/battery pull as older versions of Android seemed to need every two or three days. Yay ICS!
"Android is upgrading" appears when the system is generating ODEX files (optimized DEX). This essentially uncompresses "classes.dex" from the APKs, verifies them, optimizes them for the host (byte order, class prunning, ...) and writes them out in the dalvik-cache directory.
Dexopt should be performed when installing applications by the package installer though and it does it upon boot only when there's no corresponding ODEX file already. It also does it upon system upgrade, because the dalvik version likely changed and ODEX files need to be redone for the new VM.
This is a poor choice of words. "Android is optimizing applications" would be less confusing.
I've installed about 739MB of apps and flashed Google Wallet onto my Nexus, and every boot it goes through the processes of "Optimizing Applications" on each boot. I've heard this is the Nexus rebuilding the cache but why does it need to do it every time? Other ICS ROMs only report this on first boot or after wiping the Dalvik Cache. This happens only after I've flashed Google Wallet and a moderate helping of apps.
Is this just how it works?
No that shouldn't happen every time. Are you using a custom rom?
it happens to me. After update. And after unlocking bootloader. No custom rom.

Jb roms here are all having the similar issues.. Either screen flickering or random reboots / sleep of death.. That is when your phone reboots on its own but never completely boots and need to be manually restarted..

I've been running the aokp since build 1 and i haven't switched back to gb or ics since i think it's a huge difference from both. I like it a lot, it's very smooth, the flicker can be get rid of by choosing a few options in settings like disable hw overlay, which completely gets rid of the flicker for me. I don't use google now but the search works yeah. I get random reboots and either pull the battery or wait a few seconds and then hold down the power button until it restarts, but it doesn't bother me as much it rarely happens at important times, usually it happens after i lock the phone and put it in my pocket. Also it freezes sometimes too but not too often.

I've been using AOKP as a DD for a while now I love it. I would suggest flashing the newest nightly (9-18). It's all about preference with ROMs, I love all the ways to customize AOKP.
It's like I tell everyone though, just flash it and test it out for yourself. Always make a nandroid just incase if you don't like it you can always flash back... no harm no foul. Ever since JB leaks I haven't gone back to anything else.
You won't be disappointed. Just follow the instructions and read up on the threads before posting questions/problems because if you experience an issue chances are other people have as well and there's a fix.
Have fun!!!

Reflash... sometimes these things happen don't sweat it your phone isn't broke. I flashed an earlier build 5 or 6 times until it worked correctly.
If at first you don't succeed.....
I've just switched to ericwill's CM10 build from AOKP due to SOD issues and battery life issues.
No RR or SOD yet and greatly improved battery life so far. Been running for about 18 hours.
As a side note, I much prefer AOKP for its customization, but I'll take stability over customization any day.
Of course, YMMV.

I ran CM10 09_17 and AOKP 09_18 got RR on both and SOD on CM10, then i tried Paranoid 2.13(CM10) and its been great!! atm am on 26hrs uptime with no issues.
I've run BinaryBishops, AOKP, CM10, and now Paranoid 2.13 which I've been running around 27-28 hours uptime. Only one I haven't experienced any reboots or sod or any of the like was Binarys' but Paranoid is the smoothest by far. Camera, music, keyboard all super responsive, no lag I've noticed at all. Running stock Trebuchet and haven't gutted it like I normally would, delete what I don't use and the like. Binarys night lies seem to be on hold for whatever reason

Nope, works fine for me.
Nope. Not very. Just a bit laggy.
I see that UI on 4.2 is not so fast as it was on 4.1.2, but some apps (e.g. chrome) works a bit faster.
So, yep - I'm happy with the update.

People who aren't having speed issues: Can you test a couple of scenarios I've noticed in particular?
1) In the new gmail: tap on the account switching area at the top. This loads far slower for me with the new app
2) Put your phone to sleep or wake it up. Sleep/wake seems quite a bit less responsive in 4.2 on both of the stock phones I've tested.

i made i wipe cache and now is working fine. thanks a lot
No. 4.2 is just as fast as 4.1.2 on my GNex... which was fast whether I use the stock UI or Apex Launcher. Granted there is an initial sluggishness during the initial boot from services loading in the background... but after that my GNex is smooth and fast.
Those of you experiencing slow speeds: Try flashing the factory image from Google. I had one app that didn't work properly and a flash to factory stock and re-root fixed the problem. It's possible you have an app running in the background eating up resources too.
I understand these threads and posts must be annoying to those who aren't having issues, but to people like me, who OTAed a bone stock phone and are left with a less-than-satisfactory experience, it is equally frustrating. Especially considering how many improvements were made with 4.1-4.1.2, which have now been rendered moot.
I guess my only recourse is to wipe and flash stock, but because I'm not rooted and don't have any backups, it'll be fun to rebuild my phone.
ealterh
Turn off that live wallpaper! JK hopefully that isnt the case...
Each Android iteration on the GN has gotten smoother for me. 4.2 is pretty amazing out of the box, much like 4.1 was when compared to 4.0.3/.4. The GN is definitely not lacking when it comes to having what it takes for 4.2.
4.2 is really, really fast. When they fix camera rotation and recent apps, it will be perfect. It killed my urge for N4. Now I can easily wait for one more year... Good job Google.

It boots, but once you choose language it just jumps back to the CM boot logo and does it over and over. Maybe next build will go further.
Sent from my T-Mo Note 2
I see. Thanks for the heads-up.
Cool, keeping my eye on this, thanks for the info.
I gave it a shot. It was able to boot into Android just fine (upgrade from CM10.1), but trying to do almost anything like going to settings or opening phone caused the UI to reload. (boot animation for 3sec or so) Also, there was no cell as it was a N7105 ROM. Doing a data wipe and installing 4.3 GApps, which I found on page 2, had the same result, only you couldn't get past the welcome screen. It's nice to know it's booting at least, even if it's unusable. (I didn't do any further reading, as I needed my phone working quickly.) I would looove to see a 10.2 with Focal for T-Mobile. Losing the touchwiz framework for the camera has been the one thing holding me back. Focal in 10.1 seems to be doing a lot better, though still not the TW results.
Build 7/31 boots and runs pretty good although there is no data so you have to connect to WiFi. One problem I did notice was when browsing the internet the screen tends to jump and the web page bar blacks out from time to time. That's the one bug I did find. I didn't really fool around with it too much. My old lady kept telling me stop playing with my damn phone.:sly: Focal is pretty cool, not sure how it really differs itself from Google and Samsung camera apps, but hey it's something new and it's from CM.

I just downloaded the latest 8/1 build and its running pretty good!
Edit: So far, everything seems to be functioning, including data. Only thing that's not working is the stock aosp keyboard, but installing a third party keyboard fixed the problem. Overall it's very nice, definitely getting closer to a daily driver.
