ART vs DALVIK - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Using CPU-Z I checked the system tab, and found that the phone is using Dalvik 2.1.0. I used to have a Nexus 5 and I switched to using ART and noticed a noticable improvement in performance. Does anyone know how to to switch (or if it is even possible) to ART on the G4?
Im using the Tmobile variant.

It is using ART. The dalvik vm is set to use libart.so (look in your build.prom) That figure in cpu-z is only referring to what version of dalvik is on it, not what library it is using for the vm.

The G4 runs only on ART since Android Lollipop only runs ART.

Slide to answer issue

The slide to answer tab stays on even after I accept a call. This prevents me from hanging up or using any other in call menu. The issue started after I uninstalled truecaller app.
Tried deleting the data of phone app in settings. But it did not solve the issue.
Any other solution before I do a clean install.

i had this issue before what rom are you using? if you are using a custom kernel use the stock kernel instead
Using XenonHD + Trinity kernel Stable63.
Have you changed screen density? It's happen to me depending on the dpi I've chosen.

There's nothing wrong with having that amount free. Android will clear it out as it needs it.

Cpu usage of one core at 100%

Hi, I've got some problems with my 5x lately, and the problem is that one core of the cpu runs at 100% and the only solution is reboot. It's pretty annoying, because it slows down the device and the battery is draining quicker. I don't have root or unlocked bootloader and I'm running on stock 7.0 with november security patch. Does anyone have/had problem like this and found some solution?

try a factory reset
Most likely a rogue app. Think to when this problem started happening and try to remember if you installed any new apps or if any apps were updated around then. Then disable or uninstall those apps and see if the problem ceases.
I agree most likely one of your apps.
Next time it happens use Settings > Developer Options > Running Services and catch it in the act.

The screenshot does not show everything, but that is definitely not normal
looks like the "lmkd" is not working properly
or there is something wrong with the kernel
Just tried another kernel (16) and it's almost the same

it's the rom
bad ram management or "lmkd" not working properly
try a clean flash, or change the rom ...
also you should try living without gapps :
Honestly I'm moving toward a vanilla build soon since I don't really use any of Google's apps ..Thank you fellow north African
