This thread is meant for people with questions regarding my Kitkat ROM.
Why did I create this thread?
I want to keep my Development thread clean.
What can I ask/post about?
Almost anything, as long as it is related to me or the ROM.
Some examples;
"Does INT2EXT work with this rom?"
"Does supercharger work with this rom?"
"Where are you from?"
And so on...
Feel free to help each other out! And please, stop posting about this in the development thread.
Well I now feel officially obliged to apologize for ****ting in your development thread.

No worries mate, this thread was just created. I've been meaning to do this thread for a while now
Nice idea, thanks
Here's my problem: GTalk crashes when people call me (voice chat).
"Does supercharger work with this rom?"
Is this thing stable enough to use for space diving?
via xda app
Good idea starting this thread. So here's my first question :
Does Netflix app work for you w this rom (latest version)?
For me it instantly shuts down when I start the app.

I had it installed on P11. You have to patch services.jar (there's a windows tool to do it for you here).
I had a lot of freezing problems before and after installing it. They weren't the same after I installed it; not necessarily better, just different. I have no way of knowing if it was supercharger or an app or some sort of interaction between two or more things.
I'm on 3.1.0p1 now and I have no intention of using supercharger because my Desire is more responsive and better at multitasking now than it ever was on Gingerbread with supercharger.
sorry to ask what exactly is/does supercharger?

I tried supercharger to jb/cm10 and I had no problem at all I believe the same would be for p1 but at the moment I run without supercharge and looks that the rom doesnt need it.

I can't say, I don't use my desire. But.. If someone else here were to install Netflix (No need to login, just try to start) that'd be great.
Get me a logcat and I'll see what I can do.
adb logcat -c <press enter>
adb logcat > netflix.txt <press enter> and start netflix. then upload it somewhere (like pastebin?)
I would ask for Aroma Installer with which we can be able to choose between different scripts (A2SD and INT2EXT) and misc.
And....what about trying Cyanogenmod settings to be able to customize even further?

Using Aroma = more bugs. No thank you.
Well.. That's Cyanogenmod and not Evervolv.
Hi Nikez, Just curious, any reason you use a2sd and not other scripts (d2ext, int2ext etc)? Speed, stability? So people won't ask and try other alternatives as you as dev explain the benefit.
By any chance, did anyone try endomondo on the new p1 release? On p11 I had a problem that every time I tried viewing the map, the phone froze.. not sure if it was some issue with gapps. Anyone hit anything similar?
@nikez thanks for the awesome JB ROM. My Desire is still kicking along after nearly 2.5 years!
I have just installed the latest update 3.0.0p11, flashed the 4.1.2 version of google apps (gapps-jb-20121011-signed) and setup app2sd.
When I view the available space using Titanium Backup I only have 36.8kB free in System Rom partition. Is that normal on stock Hboot?
Also, I installed the latest Google Calendar update from the Play Store. I now have two calendar apps installed. Has anyone else tried this yet? Do I need to remove the other one from /system?
I would like to thank you deeply for this amazing ROM. I've been searching a perfect rom for a long time, but I think I am very close to end my search now while using your ROM. Very fast, very versatile, almost stock ROM. I love simplicity and this is absolutely perfect.
The only problem I had was a problem with camera - I know this is an annoying issue with many ROMs and it's probably not very well made in the Android itself. Do you think it will get better? I understand that it probably does not depend on you, but I believe this is the last thing that is truly missing to your ROM. (But I am no power user, just a casual user).
And again, thank you for (imho) the best Jelly Bean ROM available here, and I am seriously considering a donation. Keep up the good work!

Ok, so here is my problems
I got MIUI Android 2.9.29 on my S3. I just upgraded to version 2.10.26. The update process includes wipe cache, dalvick cache, flash new rom on top of old one without wipe clean, then flash google apps.
After the installation, I found that I don't have Google Maps any more. So I go to Google Market and download Google Maps, and I got the error below:
"Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID"
I have searched all over the internet and I can't find a solution working for me at all. Some of the proposed solution that I have found:
Install ROM Toolbox and remove the previous Maps app ===> I can't do this since there is no Maps app in Setting/Application
Install SD Maid and use corpse finder to remove old apps ===> I have done this but still same result
Fresh install of everything ====> Have not tried it yet since I will lose all my settings and SMS.
I would have post it in the MIUI thread but I am considered to be a noob (under 10 post) so can't post there yet. If anyone can help, greatly appreciated it.

No, this is MIUI Android ROM, the option to change dpi is not available. The only ROM that I have seen that allows changing of DPI is paranoidandroid ROM.

Actually you can edit your build.prop of any ROM to change the dpi. But what is the exact error you have? Can you post a screen shot please?

Well, I just nandroid back to my stock, deodexed ROM. If I want to take that screen shot, I got to switch to MIUI again. It is a bit of a hassle.
Basically, based on my description of the problem above, when I go to Google Play and install Google Maps. A message popup with the error message below:
"Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID"
When you hit OK, the popup went away and Google Maps's installation is a failure (no installation). Not sure how to fix it. You can read my original post above and see what I have done so far trying to fix it, but none has worked so far. I got tired of it so I switched back to the old stock ROM using Nandroid.
I think the only way to fix this problem is to do a clean installation, but it kinds of defeat the purpose since I want to keep all my old settings in MIUI.

Did you use the same MIUI ROM ver 2.10.26? or it is a diffrent ROM? I don't know about other ROM. But for MIUI, I think you need to do a clean install as the only solution. I have tried to look up other threads and ask for help but no one was able to give a working solution. You can tried some of the method I list in my first post above. Some people say it works (not for me), but won't hurt to try.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219029
Hello,
Following @Nebucatnetzer idea (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47328274&postcount=1283), I decided to create a new thread dedicated to ART talking.
ART is not even finished by Google : all the ART discussion in 4.4 custom ROMs thread for our GNex clutters the threads with the same question every page. It results in messy threads which do not help anyone who wants to see the status, updates, or wants to post bugreports about the KitKat ROMs !
Small reminder out there : KitKat isn't even fully working on our phone, so it is quite early to mess up with ART, just my opinion So I'll hope everyone will talk about ART here as it concerns all the 4.4 ROMs out there.
What is ART ?
ART, Android RunTime, is a new runtime which has been introduced in Android 4.4.
It has been said that it improves the smoothness of the phone, but ATM it's more of a placebo effect (listen to this please, very interesting : Android Central : five minutes about ART podcast)
How to enable ART ?
Important, as Android devs said : Dalvik must remain the default runtime or you risk breaking your Android implementations and third-party applications.
(source : https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/art.html)
Go to Settings, then Developer Options, then Select runtime and select "Use ART"
BEWARE : Use odexed gapps (from AOSPA) otherwise you'll have nonstop FC and a really hard time reselecting Dalvik !
Here's a download link :AOSPA Odexed 4.4 Gapps
After selecting ART, your phone will rebuild is cache as usual, but don't worry if it takes a long moment, 20-30mins as some people reported.
If there's any other information we should add to this OP, I'll do it So, please use this magnificient thread to centralize all the ART talk :good:
Cheers !

Neither does Titanium Backup. I still get FC on Google keyboard, Google one and some init even with odex gapps. Each reboot there's 16 apps that need to be rebuilt each time. Really sucks.
Has anybody noticed some speed improvements?

Don't think so. I think the system does it when selecting ART and rebooting. That's why cache rebuilding takes a longer time.
But I'm not sure at all.

I tried switching to ART last night.
I used Grarak's and ODEXED PA GApps.
After switching to ART, the phone prompted a reboot so I plugged my phone preparing fie a logcat.
When the Google logo appeared I started the logcat.
I noticed 1 error from the very beginning. It's looking for something and it didn't seem to find it.
Then on the process of optimizing the apps, there is one persistent warning.
It says it didn't find "ELF Magic".
What is ELF Magic ?
i was just thinking, with a fully stock odexed rom, all of the system apps and some frameworks are odexed. so when we are currently using art its only affecting the gapps and nothing else so technically we are not fully using art to its best ability and getting the full effect am i right ? i know its experimental but having the gapps only running with the art runtime is very minimal. i dived around root explorer and i noticed that the priv-app files still contained odex files and not oat showing that the compiler only works on system apps, idk im just babbling on sharing some thoughts haha anyways i would love to try it on a full rom scale some time hope ya guys understand what im trying to say here

ELF file is a kind of executable file used by some Unix-like systems, similar to exe on Windows. The header of the file contains a sequence, called the magic number, which the system will check to make sure it's the right format. If not found, that means it's not an ELF. Search "ELF magic number" for more info.

Obviously it's magic from an Elf! See if you can capture one of the Keebler elves and have them use their magic on your phone!
On a more serious note:
In computing, the Executable and Linkable Format (ELF, formerly called Extensible Linking Format) is a common standard file format for executables, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps. First published in the System V Application Binary Interface specification,[1] and later in the Tool Interface Standard,[2] it was quickly accepted among different vendors of Unix systems. In 1999 it was chosen as the standard binary file format for Unix and Unix-like systems on x86 by the 86open project.
ELF is flexible and extensible by design, and it is not bound to any particular processor or architecture. This has allowed it to be adopted by many different operating systems on many different platforms.

Hey guys, I just found this video about ART vs. Dalvik. Okay, it is on Nexus 7 (2013), but I guess the weaker OMAP4460 can see some benefits once we have a more-or-less stable build.
Okay, the video only appears for 1 second here, so here is the link: http://youtu.be/xgnZbdO4NV0

Have you ever wondered how you Note 2 would run with a nice clean version of aosp? While there are many n2 roms that claim to be aosp very few really are. Most are based off of cm (cyanogenmod) which is not pure aosp. What make Evervolv different? It has been based on pure aosp (google source) and is a nice no frills rom which saves battery and makes it super stable. Give it a run and see what aosp is all about.
Now I am not part of Evervolv and they do not support the Note 2 so if you have any problems please post them here for me to address. If you like what Evervolv has done then please go to them and thank them since they did all the hard work.

Yes I got that same message while trying to flash with TWRP 2.8.0.0 I found here. ( https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/l900/ )
I tried TWRP with no success and went back to my usual philz_touch_6.07.9-l900 which is what I always use. It gives me the Android boot screen and then loops back to the Samsung screen. I can't even get in to get a logcat because in C:adb/adb_devices it shows no devices while in that loop. I don't know how far back the logcat goes in the system but I did a test log once I restored the Community ROM to see if that helps. I have no problem with other 5.x.x ROMs so I am assuming that's not it.

Where did you get the apk from? Do not use the one in playstore. Download the apk from viper's official website. It works like a charm. Have used it on multiple cm and aosp based roms.
By the way on which rom are you trying this? Are you rooted? If you are on stock rom it may not work. Which device?

For android 4.x use the ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x.apk. I always used v4a with google play music. You need to go under settings and look for equalizer and then choose v4a.
Once v4a is set up make sure you chage the ui settings to expert mode. Then enable convolver so you can set irs files. Play with the other settings to get the best sound. V4a is great. Cant go wrong with it.
