[Q] Poor app performance with CM11. - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I am using CM11 M12 Snapshot on my LG G pad and I really enjoy it, except for one thing. For some reason the Twitch.tv app performs really ****ty, other videoapps such as youtube or crunchyroll works fine, but twitch gives me trouble as soon as I put the quality setting above medium. This did not use to happen before I flashed CM11, on stock it ran perfectly on source quality, no matter what stream I was watching. I really don't want to go back to stock because there are alot of things with CM that I really like.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? And even better how I can fix it.
Please just ask if you need any more information from me, I'll provide it to the best of my abilities.

It could be fixed in cm12. The problem sounds like it has something to do with the closed source video driver blobs. Perhaps those blobs will be updated in cm12 or with a new kernel.

[Q] Video Mic audio recording quality?

HI all - it seems as if every time I'm at a live music performance and want to record a video, the audio is absolutely atrocious. I saw that there may have been some sort of bitrate mod for the Epic Touch to address this, is there anything for the Epic?
Running CM 10.0, FWIW. Generally using Camera ICS+. No custom kernels.

Run a custom kernel Anything with Voodoo Sound will provide vastly superior audio playback and recording! I unfortunately have no suggestions for which to run though, since you're still rocking CM 10.0, but there are a few if you check the Developers section. I run the AOKP ROM with Nitest Kernel and have zero issues, but you have to run some other kernel then what comes packaged with the ROM because AOKP doesn't include Voodoo Sound code (plus, Nitest makes things much more responsive). One small additional caveat though, the thread for Nitest is Didhy's version and it doesn't natively include BigMem code for 720p video and requires you to flash an additional package, but Effsi's version comes with it included. This is Effsi's version of Nitest if you're interested. It's from March 8 but I had been running it up until two days ago, so don't let it's age deter you, but he's working on an update
Let me rephrase that, no custom kernels yet
I don't want to go to 4.2.2 due to the Bluetooth issues...

What issues? I don't use my Epic as a phone, not that I'd use a BT headset anyways, but BT has worked just fine for me to do a device-to-device file transfer. So either it isn't affecting that portion of BT's abilities, or AOKP have resolved whatever it is...
At any rate. I'm not sure what Radio you use (Epic or Nexus), but here is Effsi's last Nitest for JB v4.1 (Epic Radio).

Small lags on cm11 Rom

Hello, I just installed cm11 on my new g pad v500, and I'm experiencing small lags on YouTube videos for example, in Web browsing too. These are very small lags but it gives a really gives a strange effect. Back to stock LG rom, it's very fast and no more lags. Are you experiencing this kind of problems too? Maybe on Cmb or paranoid Android this won't be the case?
Thanks everyone for your answers and for the hard work to port kitkat on our tablets.

4.4 Camera Issues *HELP*

Hello and thanks for your time! I have the SGH-I317 and I am having problems with my camera when I flash a AOSP ROM. The 4.4 KitKat camera is not working for me, but when I flash back to a TouchWiz ROM everything is fine. Here are the apps and the problems associated with them:
-SnapChat: Taking pictures works fine, but when recording video it will only record a second or two
-Instagram: Pictures are fine, but the video is distorted and zoomed in
-Vine: The app doesn't even recognize that i have a video camera
-When trying to take a video to attach to a mms message it give me this: (SEE ATTACHED) (I've tried Hangouts and the stock messaging)
And the crazy thing is, when i open the video camera through the camera app, it works fine.
ALSO, When any app that needs access to the camera/video camera is open, there is a horrible screeching sound that comes out of the headset speaker, I will record a video so you can hear what I am talking about. Also notice how the video is fine besides the screeching when opening through the camera app.

Wrong section sir.
You need to delete this and post in questions and answers thread. This section is for developers to post roms..NOT for questions
Thanks
Also..its a known bug for those apps for 4.4 roms. No fix right now.

Yes, the sure, simple solution is to use a stock rom. 100% compatible with those time bandit apps.
THis is exactly why I am on a 4.3 ROM (Ditto Note) most of the time. The stock camera in the kitkat roms doesn't work smoothly for me.

If only that were a solution for me. (using an older custom rom)
I seem to have this issue on any rom BESIDES the stock rom. Its buggy across the mentioned apps, and it never works on the MMS "capture video" setting. This isn't a big deal as it only aggravates my OCD, but my bank recently installed some photo detection software on their mobile app and I can no longer deposit checks due to the buggy nature of the camera.
If you, or anyone else here knows of a rom that is FULLY compatible with the GN2 camera, can you please post it here? Im willing to go back in time.
I wish that developers would fully work out the bugs in X.3 before moving on to X.4, but i appreciate their hard work.

[Q] Sound Problems in Custom Roms

i have a problem in every custom rom i tried (besides the rear camera bug):
the sound in some games is crackling. in hitman go it's only sometimes when a sound is played, in the walking dead it's really bad, there's only crackling and no real sound, it's unplayable. i messed a little with the dsp settings, but to no avail. if i plug earphones in it's the same. this appears on all of the latest nightlies and weeklies drom slimkat, cm11, infected and standard builds. again like the camera bug, it's not present in stock roms like LRS.
could someone who's running one of the latest nightlies of those roms test that please? walking dead season 1 is free to download.
thank you!

Hey mate,
I'm on 4.4.2 Commotio at the minute, its stable as heck, very fast, front back camera work. And external SD card doesn't do a runner (lol)
Their is a sound problem though sound is great for most part but now and again it buzzes for a second or so. I have told dev the problem and awaiting reply....
I have seen this problem reported about all CM/AOKP based ROMs and as far as I can tell its a CPU overload.
A kernel issue a guess...
Maybe changing governr to Interactive fixes the problem.
I love how the default (on demand) puts it in deep sleep on the home screen when you leave it.
Must be like that in most ROMs I guess.

Google camera.....

Has anyone try the google camera app on the zenfone 2 ? I've heard pictures might be better
It depends. If you're on CM13, it's better because the Marshmallow version of Google Camera's pretty good, but on the other hand the Marshmallow version of Google Camera is broken with video so it kind of varies. If you're still on stock ROM, then I would recommend Camera FV-5. It's a pretty nice camera.
It depends really. You see the Google Camera that you can download from the PlayStore installs a different version of the app for every version of android that you're running, it also gives certain features that only Nexus phones can utilize. So if you're running stock ZenUI running Lollipop, then i can't say for sure of the quality improves a lot, but if you're running on a custom ROM, then i think it does have a difference. Personally, i'm running ReusrrectionRemix and the image quality is just great.
