[SOLVED] Fruity loops on slimkat : incompatible device - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Two days ago I tried to test fruity loops, unfortunately, I was using a SlimKat custom rom (one of the infested release) and saw that the play store stated my device as incompatible !
At the end of the play store description, there was some warning about using custom rom and root ...
No believing that my device was indeed incompatible I tried yesterday to restore my stock rom. With a bit of a pain to find the correct procedure, I managed to get it working (which is pretty simple when you know how )
And saw that right away, Fruity loops was indeed accessible from the play store.
The thing is, the LG UI is quite simply horrible, at least compared to SlimKat.
One thing I noticed on the Google play store on my PC, is that the store seems to see my device in two different ways according to which rom I use:
- The LG stock rom is called "No carrier LGE LG-V500"
- The slimKat rom is called "No carrier Lge LG-V500"
While the first is indeed marked as compatible, the other one is not !
I was wondering, can this incompatibility issue be solely based on the name of the device as reported by the rom ?
What exactly is responsible to giving this name ?
Yesterday evening I then tried to reinstall a clean and updated slimkat from the slimrom website, using the last weekly. Right after the installation, I went in the store to see that Fruity loops was indeed accessible ! Hooray I thought, the name problem must have been corrected, or something and went to sleep, thinking about installing fruity loops in the morning.
Well, here I am, in the morning and to my disappointment, Fruity loops just dissappeared from the google play store again !!!!
Anyone have any idea of what is going ? Am I to be stuck with the stock rom if I want to use FL ?

Is there anyone using Fruity Loops and a custom rom ? If yes, could you please say it here (and which rom you are using).

I'm using FLStudio Mobile with the latest CM 11 Milestone (M11) without any problems...

Thanks for your answer.
This must be a slimrom problem then
I don't know how a device is identified, but there must be something in the system properties that is restricted by FL on the slimrom and not on the stock and CM11 ...
I just tried to change ro.product.manufacturer form "lge" to "LGE", but this did not change anything
I think I would need to compare the system properties that works with mine ( they are located in the file /system/build.prop )

AFAIK slim uses non standard display resolutions. Maybe that's the culprit.

I investigated some screen related stuff this morning.
First, the screen resolution is OK in slimrom : 1920x1200.
Another factor which may be causing incompatibilities apparently: screen density (DPI) : the optimal is around 275 (which I think is the slimrom default ... changed it too much )
Apparently, the density for the stock rom is 320 ... which seems kinda BIG, but i tried changing to that value by going 10 by 10 until i reached 275.
Still no FL in the store ...
Could you or anyone with a working FL tell me their 'ro.sf.lcd_density' value ?

Why don't you just download cm and look in the zip?
Edit: I'll upload the build prop from cm soon.

Hum, I didn't think the content of the zip file was humanly readable, silly me
And ... I found the culprit !
Although CM11 uses 320 for lcd_density (compared to 275 for slim), this was not the source of the problem.
The only other different parameter was 'dalvik.vm.heapminfree' : it was set to 2m in slim, and 512k in CM, after I changed that parameter FL appeared in the store ! Hooray !
Thanks for the help edisso !

Great! Glad I could help.
Though I have no idea why this could change the Play Store visibility...

[Q] boot animations, shutdown animations and sounds...

Hello all...yes, I am a noob! I recently discovered the joys of rooting my Evo4g...talk about breating new life into outdated technology! Anyway I have been flashing roms for about the past month (drives the wife nuts, always tinkering with my EVO!!) and I have learned how great theming can be - I love the look of ICS and JB but I prefer to not sacrifice the built in features (4G, FFC...etc) that have not been developed for the newer systems. I finally settled on DroidGTR-Turbo (wonderful rom for GB, btw!) and got all my apps reinstalled and convinced myself that the time had come to finally just enjoy my EVO instead of playing with it when...(GASP!)...Microsoft released XBox SmartGlass for Android!!! I had been waiting with eager anticipation for weeks since I heard about it so I went to download it and (GASP! again) "For Android 4.0 or higher"!!! I googled for ways to get it to work, wiped phone and installed on a ICS rom to get the apk reinstalled GB and even found a hacked apk file but I got a parsing error when I tried to install both. So now I am running MazWoz-EVO JB rom (LOVELOVELOVE it btw! Great Job) and as an added surprise I now have shutdown animation, which I never considered before. Here is my issue (after that long winded yet hopefully entertaining introduction to meself!) - and it is in no means a "deal breaker" issue - the shutdown animation uses the bootanimation.zip and I would like to know what file to edit to use a different zip for shutdown than for startup - if that is even possible at this stage in developement. Also, it seems after about two weeks of googling and researching that bootsounds in ICS and JB are not possible at this point. Is this indeed the case or did I miss something somewhere? And of course what would make both of those (very minor) issues completely null and void to me - has anyone found a way to get SmartGlass to install and run on GB?
Thanks for your time!!
Not sure where it is on Rom your running. But using WinZip, or 7-Zip you can check to see if it's in Data - Local. It will be named downanimation.zip .

[Q] Common problems of cm9, cm10 and cm11 already known?...

Hello,
I detected the following systematic problems of cm9..11
1.) Skype cannot be started at all. It does not even react on a click of its icon. And no error message appears.
2.) the akku load status is shown incorrect during load process. E.g. after 4 hours load it shows 37% instead of true 100% (which is shown after reboot).
3.) The wonderful app 'lgCamera' runs very slow and jerky. This was fine in Android 2.x versions.
4.) the FM radio app for the WFS radio tuner (no internet radio!). How can I find it (and flash it into the system folder as a system app)?
I suppose that everybody can confirm my problems!?...
Are those already known by the development team? Cause I wonder that they are not fixed in ALL CyanogenMod versions yet!
Will there be a chance to expect their fix soon?...
5.) Furtheron I have big compatibility problems when flashing cm9..cm11 ROMs and others. Error message: "cannot load volume /misc. Can't partition non-vfat: /storage (vfat)". For nearly each ROM I have to change the recovery. Currently I change between the following recoverys (one of them allways works):
twrp-2.2.2.0, twrp-2.7.1.0, Phil-Z 6.43.7, cwm-5.0.2.8, cwm-6.0.5.3. Nobody else having that problem?...
Is there any recovery version that can read all 'formats' of zip files?...
Will there be compatibiliy at least at the backup files between all of them?...
Thank you VERY much for a quick help!
1.) not compatible anymore, say Thanks to Skype
2.) This is probably problem with battery not reading voltage correct anymore on charger (happens) for me on all roms even stock. (After 100000 of flashes and almost 3years old down sucked battery
3) ics and up isn't made for this phone, slow downs and other incompatibility can happen.
4) There is a solution called spiritfm(free) Google it, you will find the xda thread.
5) twrp 2.2.2.0 and cwm 5 is working on all ROMs beside newer kk builds (needs recovery compiled with TLS support, newest ones available)
Greetings Kevin
Hallo Kevin,
I am so glad that you answer! Thank you very much!!
to 1.) Yes, I realised meanwhile that Skype 4 ist still running fine. So the reason why the new Skype 5 version does not work on Wildfire S (or even on all CM versions of all devices??) you don't know!?...
to 2.) So this is a general Andrid 4.x problem of Wildfire S device only?... (cause e.g. on Galaxy S4 stock (of my girl-friend) it works fine!...
to 4.) Thank you. I installed this free version '0918fr.apk' but I get the error message (su rights confirmed): "Error: No FM accessible. SU: 0 Fm:BC2 SU:0 Bt:3 Ht:0 Mo:BCU". It does not seem to be compatible although I have read everywhere that it should work. Is this maybe antoo old version? Or what can be the reason?...
to 5.) So I used newer version 'cwm-6.0.5.3' and 'twrp-2.7.1.0', as I mentioned, but then these versions do not support older version than KK. E.g. 'CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed.zip'. This is the problem. Any solution?...
Is TLS ment as 'Thread-local storage'?...
Another short request:
a) Video recording with cm11 on Wildfire S works now without any patch. But if I record a video longer than about 5 seconds and I want to watch it directly after having stopped recording (timeframe about 7 seconds) then the camera app crashes. Can you confirm that on Wildfire S? What can be the reason?...
If Olivier's camera patch will help here as well I have not tested yet...
b) Management of Launcher and App screen is somehow circumstancial or not even possible. This is why the option 'Homescreen' is missing in 'Personalization' ('cm-11-20140816-Nightly') although the related screenshots of cm11 in XDA show this option!! E.g. App icons cannot be sorted alphabetically or cannot be manually moved within the screen. Or the home panel is the most left one instead of the middle one. Etc.
Any reason why the option 'Homescreen' was deleted (in XDA cm11 screenshots for Wildfire S still show it!! S. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775 )?...
c) CM11 OTA update suggests me 'cm-11.0.0-RC9' as the first in the list. Is this really more actual than the installed 'cm-11-20140816-Nightly' (version 11.0-20140816) ?...
d) In this version the Email system app is missing. Why?
Any zip to flash it anywhere? Or do I have to use one of the market?...
e) No warm reboot option available anymore in cm versions?...
Thanks for your help again, Kevin!
Many greetings, Falk
to 5.) I could solve that problem meanwhile by myself. I downloaded a modified version of cwm 6.0.5.3 here:
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...5.0] - Post #52 - XDA Forum&txt=the new build
But I still do not know what was modified! You?...
6.) you forgot the ever present mobile data bug at least for cm9 and cm10. Which no1 evens bothers to mention

oh, its super present .
It was a "common" problem in cm9, cm10 based roms, at least judging from the various threads dating back to 2013. And as I discovered yesterday its also present in CM11 RC9 for me.
Occurence of the bug is very random and seems to be bound to certain providers which makes it hard to debug/fix i guess.
Sadly, from what I've read "deal with it and toggle airplane mode when you need mobile data" or "install cm7" are the ways to handle this bug.

Anybody having "black screen bug" on ws2401 LCD while on ACE2?

Did anyone of you guys have the LCD-wakeup problem with horizontal grey lines? (it fixes itself after couple of attempts to unlock the phone and mostly occurs after probably deepsleep OR if there is cold (?) outside ;]
IT DOES NOT occur on CM10 by dr.harald or ANY stock Samsung firmware (also Gingerbread is NOT affected).
But occurs on any 10.1, 10.2 and 11 by anyone (so far ;/
My Ace2 is using pri_lcd_ws2401 driver
Never happened to me and I used many roms, including CM11 by team canjica now.
However I don't know how to check my driver
You can check this under
/sys/devices (you can browse there using Total Commander or any other file manager capable of browsing the whole filesystem on the rooted phone)
Here you should have either :
PRI_LCD_WS2401.0 (like I have)
or
PRI_LCD_S6D27A1.0
Currently I have installed (for testing as usual before restoring the CM10 from backup) CM11 from Team Canjica with the following kernel by PolishVodka :
http://www.mediafire.com/download/yie7ps4irxz5zbl/KERNEL_KK.zip
(I've found it on the following thread : http://forum.android.com.pl/f696/po-wgraniu-cm11-paski-na-szarym-ekranie-481605/ , however it does concern the S6D27A1 and I'm kind of confused now... as it seems to work (at least it does for one-two hours since I loaded the new kernel well... for sure I WILL BE CONFUSED if it woud work longer than one day without "black screen bug" since I am pretty confident that I have WS2401...
Maybe I do something wrong while checking the driver, etc?
One way or another the device drivers available in the filesystem are in :
/sys/devices/pri_lcd_ws2401.0/subsystem/drivers and I have there
pri_lcd_s6d27a1
and
pri_lcd_ws2401
so... since the ONLY driver entry in /sys/devices
is pri_lcd_ws2401.0
it suggests that I am using the WS2401 one
Anyway... I will post later some more info on this
Ok, it seems to work fine - no issues so far. hail to PolishVodka!!!
P.S. However I thought that the kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/ace-2-develop/kernel-ace2nutzer-kernel-20141027-t2920365 will be working fine, unfortunately for my WS2401 still the "black screen bug" ;/

DOWNLOADS
Please note this build is for bug-hunting purposes only, yet! (Plain CM is boring anyways)
I am just starting to build for this device and with this build am currently trying to get a stable basis for other roms.
My goal is having a fully working code-base for any AOKP-based 4.4 ROM.
So PLEASE join the testing phase, try every ****ing functionality on your phone and report the results here, so i know whats done and what needs to be done. Thanks!
Rom
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gd42e500zsrl7e0/AACjh4We8ZjULayjWFL7Y1lla?dl=0
Gapps
Use any "ARM - 4.4" package from open gapps (i recommend the nano variant)
Bootloader/Recovery
If you are still on a locked bootloader, having an unrooted stock rom, or an old twrp installed, use this updated unlock/recovery suite for windows and linux:
TWRP 2.8.1.0
SOURCE CODE
https://github.com/hwmt1-u06/android
NOTICE:
I removed the asound codecs, which increases the sound volume dramatically. I wanna enjoy my music loud, when i'm sitting in the bus!
This kinda ****s up the speaker, since its too loud now, which causes clipping.
I use the Equalizier in CM's DSP Manager to reduce the speaker volume (by turning all levels around -6db)
Having loud volume, and the ability to decrase it, is better than having silence and no ability to increase it, right? Thats like going to the hair stylist and wanting longer hair.
Cool, thanks for your effort!
Will give it a try when I feel I have enough time
UPDATE V0.2
CHANGES
Fixed rebooting to recovery
Changed some default system props related to adb and root
Thats it, any bugs?
Otherwise i will now focus on porting more aokp roms, building twrp and a maybe a kernel.
Hi,
is NFC functional in this ROM?
(In B331 is not.)
Stutter bluetooth audio sometimes?
(In B331 there is)

Its probably both messed up as well in this ROM, i don't have the hardware to test those functions. Maybe you can tell me
Misjudged, in your instructions I see a clear distinction between a "first time install" and an "update install".
What is the difference between the two?
I mean, I get an idea what it is about but do not feel confident to base a decision on.

its meant like this:
- first install the first installation of THIS rom
- update install is when you already have this rom installed (e.g. v0.1) and you wanna update to another version of this rom (e.g. v0.2), and keep your apps, data and settings.
and remember to backup first!
EDIT: Updated instructions in first post
Very good, thanks!
Okay been giving this CM11 ROM a test drive this week on my Mate. My Mate is the 1 gig version and I have a bad case of call ? screen delay on this ROM. Is there a patch that can help with this? I will admit though that I probably expect too much from my poor little Mate because I have tons of apps on it
I must say though your ROM is the smoothest running ? CM11 ROM I've tried. Good job.
If I could only get rid of or just reduce the call screen delay I could run ? this as my daily driver. But this week I just missed too many calls due to the call ? screen delay.
Keep up the good work. You can depend on me to test any ROMs you put out. :thumbup:

Flashed it on my P6, replaced the kernel with the AK cm kernel for P6 and switched to ART. Very smooth rom, havent seen any issues or bugs yet except the wifi dropping, which does not mean much as it instantly reconnects. Good job.
Edit: Don't know about the ascend Mate but on the P6 OTG is fully functional and stable.
after 24 hours of being my phone:
Bluetooth audio gave me a full cd instead of less than one song, gps works.
I only miss pie control, but that in not CM if I read correctly.
Keep up the good work!
Would love to try your version of carbon rom, if you get round to that
Thanks for tests your reports, guys!
let's see..

Yeah, i will port more ROMs, but first i had to have my own kernel (see below) :fingers-crossed:

ive already patched in a tweak to help that problem atleast a little, i am not sure if theres more i can do.
as far as i know it's a well known jb/kk-problem on devices with very low ram... i had an LG O2x, which hab like 500MB ram or something... it was pretty much ununsable when someone called. i remember something like they started to remove the incallUI from the permanently-open list - if you know what i mean. and that's why it's causing this problem.
i don't really have this problem at all, to be honest. so maybe you can help it by removing some service-apps.. or maybe theres some app to force another app to stay loaded? i don't know, just an idea.

arg... P6? different kernel?
so your report doesnt really help me, since i dont even know what the exact differences between the MT1 and the P6 are, and most off the hardware related stuff is kernel related!
Good to see it's running well for you, though.
But thank you very much, srsly.
btw: you are having the wifi dropping too? thats weird, i was sure thats a kernel & /system/lib/modules thing.
...which is why i focused on kernel building for now. It seems like some people are smashing any modules they can find at their kernel until it works somehow. - this is a huge mistake. kernel modules in /system/lib/modules MUST be built against the exakt same kernel, they will be used on.
To be sure to have that clean, i felt like i need to get into that stuff as well. - and i actually just succeded like 30 minutes ago.
I will try out some things on this build, and when everything seems stable to me, i will even release my own kernel, which will always be shipped with the correct modules
But that will be HIGHLY experimental, and for the MT1 only!
Only had minor hiccups when browsing the internet at the same time.
Now testing the second session of music
Edit: A few more hiccups in one session, pretty good play a bit later. Very usable.
Installed and so far its very smooth
Maps thinks I am at a different road every now and then, causing strange new rout options. But this corrects quickly.
Can not get navigation started by clicking address in calendar appointment, then maps keeps restarting. Had the same thing with Mr. Amids carbon rom.
It does start from clicking icon and copy/paste the address.

interesting.. is there any cm based rom, where you dont have that problem?
Carbon was the only 4.4.4 rom by Mr. Amid I got working, I know now (with your explanation) that I should have wiped data too when flashing a new rom.
I can not recall having the Maps problem with 4.2 roms.

System-props and init.rc script optimization
Using wpa_supplicant_8_ti instead of wpa_supplicant_8
Prebuilt B331 kernel and kernel-modules removed
Built whirlwind.kernel #2 from sources
Built wifi modules against whirlwind.kernel #2
Is a2dp, gps and wifi better with this build, or maybe even worse?
Will I be able to upload videos to instagram ?

CM 12.1/13 - various builds

Hello guys, I'm going to share some CM builds I've found online and I'd like you to try them and discuss them. Thanks to collapseromer.
Builds are usually compatible both to US and Chinese devices: please say which version you're using when you post/report bugs since we'd like to confirm that.
Most recent I've found (old versions hidden):

http://forum.xda-developers.com/leeco-le1-pro/development/cm12-1-rom-betahydri-letv-1-pro-t3416651
Thanks to our fellow @BetaHydri we have the best of both worlds: working location service (even for mobile and wifi, Smart Lock via location should work now!) and working videos. Nice job!

Google Play Store started FCing after like an hour since I installed. I've tried a few things to get it back (uninstall via Root Explorer and reinstall, clear cache and data, flash GApps again) but so far no luck; funny enough, it's auto-updating installed apps and installing apps when I do that via browser just fine. :/
EDIT: Now it works... I guess it's because of the modified build.prop I applied, which I'm attaching here..
Actually I kept getting Play Store working on and off and I couldn't understand what triggers that so I reverted to the ROM below.

Missing SIM possible solution (thanks 0rk0 from http://www.letv.re/topic/1020-letv-x800-lost-imei/?do=findComment&comment=9608)
Code:
1. With the card inserted and unacknowledged make a call by typing: * # * # 4636 # * # *
2. Appear a menu with several options: informaticion phone, battery information, usage statistics and wifi information. That we are interested in "phone information" we click on it.
3. We get a lot of things and options. We seek "Set preferred network type" and we click on the tab that appears below us which allows us to select different types of networks.
When you first enter this menu appeared selected the option "TD-SCDMA, LTE, CDMA, EVDO GSM / WCDMA," possibly this was the problem, it was the wrong choice. So it was.
4. Change the option to "LTE / GSM / CDMA auto (PRL)" and restart your phone (you simply have to select it and get out the normal phone menu
This is the official device support request CM thread, chime in! https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/120767-letv-x500-x600-x800/
And head over here to review the ROM, I think that may stimulate collapseromer to build more, maybe even CM13! http://rom.7to.cn/romdetail/1012717
What's your mileage guys? Could you get some CM13 somewhere, maybe? Please share your files and experience, LeTV ROMs are just clueless and I really think CM is the only way out: how could you develop such a useless lockscreen and notification shade, LeTV?
Hmm... Great stuff. I also not very impressed by EUI... What about Sim card slots, mobile Internet and camera? Do all these things work on CM too? How about battery life? Is it improved or same or less?

I'm using slot 2 only and data/calls/messages work fine; both cameras work, with 4k videos too; battery is more or less the same, I can go morning to evening just like Cuoco's. I really insist you should try, unless letv starts developing good things (but it seems like Android 6 ROM doesn't change much) I'll never look back; moreover, someone may port cm13 sooner or later.

How's the camera quality, compared to EUI?
Thanks for this share OP =D
Not at all, dude, I just want to spark some conversation and maybe development for this DOA device...
Camera is fine, you even get 4k video recording from main camera and 1080p from the front facing one. Even official EUI ROMs are not that good, with camera: videos always fail to autofocus and you have to keep pressing on screen to refocus, while pictures live preview is slow and generally not so good with low lighting.
Please H3G, deliver the HTC 10 and I'll get that in a heartbeat so I can stop going slightly mad with this device!

Hello guys, I'm going to share some CM builds I've found online and I'd like you to try them and discuss them. Thanks to collapseromer.
Please note I always disable all the Chinese apps and install Open Gapps
Most recent I've found:
http://rom.7to.cn/romdetail/1012091 --> Chinese thread

This is a great ROMtoo bad Google Play Store started FCing after like an hour since I installed. I've tried a few things to get it back (uninstall via Root Explorer and reinstall, clear cache and data, flash GApps again) but so far no luck; funny enough, it's auto-updating installed apps and installing apps when I do that via browser just fine. :/.
EDIT: Now it works... I guess it's because of the modified build.prop I applied, which I'm attaching here.

This ROM gets everything working except Periscope videos.

And this is a hardware-similar device which got CM, maybe it helps someone. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=snapshot&device=sambar

Hi,
do I understand correctly that this "collapse-cm-12.1-20160531-UNOFFICIAL-X800" version works on our LeTV 1 Pro X800 US/CE model?

Correct, any CM you'll find in this thread works both for CN and US versions, I'm using an US device myself.

Ok thanks !
Then I will try it today, as I have some problems with my actual CUOCO 11S V4.3 which could not be OTA updated anymore for whatever reason.
Did't you installed OPENGAPPS arm64 version right after the ROM flash ?
Right, opengapps build, 64 bit, Android 5.1, flashed right after ROM (put two zips in queue, in case you're wondering). Let me know which build you're going to flash and how you like it.

Get on this site and add comments guys, this way we may get collapseromer's builds more often and maybe even its CM13...

I installed it ! But on boot I choosed german as language maybe not a good idea. Will try again with english at first boot-up.
I noticed following:
- I installed OpenGAPPS Stock Version for 5.1 / arm64
- Google Play Store is crashing
- AudioFX is crashing
- four to six useless chinese apps included into the ROM
- One settings extension is completely in chinese
Anyway if I'm able to remove the for me useless stuff and fix the crashing of the play sotre, then I will keep this ROM.
Which ROM build did you flash? I reverted to https://app.box.com/s/ua2ekx0g54iltp2nj9b8uo2fykciylwg for now, just because of Play Store issues (even though it actually worked since I could install apps via browser and apps were auto-updating I could open it only sporadically, most of the time it force closed).
- AudioFX crashes here too, I actually never tried that since all my audio needs are speaker and bluetooth;
- You can easily freeze/uninstall those Chinese apps: enable CM root access in standard developer settings, install Titanium Backup or similar from Play Store (or via apk from apkmirror.com) and get rid of them;
- That settings item in Chinese language is actually just a container for all those Chinese apps you want to kill, so don't bother. It will force close if you click on it, once you freeze/delete those apps.
- I always choose Italian as system language and everything is in Italian: except for those Chinese apps, of course, but they never survive for a long time.

I flashed this one that you posted at the beginning:
https://mega.nz/#!QgoihJCQ!RpD2O1knJ5L6uAOGI7I6elv6spUNrPXD7whpqb6y2kE
Should I try the one that you posted in the BOX account ? Isn't it the same ?
Nope, slightly older: try that.

can't download the one in the box account. The download don't start...
You're right, the uploader went out of bandwidth: I'm uploading to Mega myself, it should be ready in less than an hour. Of course I'll change the links too.

I noticed that I had already downloaded it during last week.
But see my last reply:
So this one is from 07.06.2016, is this the one that you put on mega ?

Original filename of the file I'm uploading to Mega is collapse-cm-12.1-20160512-UNOFFICIAL. If you have that one just flash. Build date is 2016-05-12 (12/05/2016 in Europe), you can see it from the filename.

Yes exactly. I flashed it already Play Store works on this build from 12.05.2016. Cool !
I already deactivated all the chinese APPS via APPS Settings --> All Apps. It's important that you have to download first a new keyboard like google keyboard. As the chinese/english one will be also unavailable when deactivating all chinese app/services from settings.
Yeah, so far that build worked fine, only occasional non-playing Periscope/Facebook videos. Even installed Xposed Framework with a few modules.
Oh, are you using Trebuchet or Google launcher?
