Davlik to art mode - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any disadvantages of changing to art mode?
Does it cause any problems with of touchwiz?
Edit: update. Have found one disadvantage. Checking for software updates on art give a software modification error message. Switching back to Davlik solved the problem.

[Q] Notification Pull Down not working after 4.3 OTA

A friend of mine just updated her Nexus 4 to 4.3 via OTA. Since the update several background apps kept crashing repeatedly, but she uninstalled them before I could get her to check what the exception message was. After removing the apps everything seems to be working except the Notification Pull Down. Notification Icons correctly display in the Status Bar, but you can't actually open the Notifications. Try as you might it just refuses to open. The phone has been rebooted several times to no avail.
I've searched several threads but haven't found anything even remotely similar to this. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm not sure what App affects notifications to even try clearing data on. I've thought about removing her google account cpmpletely and readding it, but I'm helping her over text, so trying to keep the complicated solutions for when we've tried everything else.
Any suggestions or ideas would be very greatly appreciated!
Has she wiped dalvik cache? I think that not wiping dalvik can cause apps to crash.
Try to reflash the ROM and wipe cache & dalvik, and do a factory reset and optionally wipe /system partition.

The phone is completely stock, non-rooted, locked bootloader, running stock 4.3 OTA.
I'm trying to find GUI solution that doesn't involve installing a custom recovery. Thanks for the idea though.
Doing a factory reset seems like the only logical thing to try, in case you don't want to unlock your bootloader and install a custom recovery. Beware, you will lose your apps and their data.
You can try to reflash the ROM again, but I don't know what's the procedure with the stock software. If you can just apply update from .zip, than you should be able to do that from the stock recovery. I never had any OTA update so I can't help you further unfortunately.

[Q] Runtime reverting to Dalvik?

Every time I try to change runtime to ART and reboot, the option still says "Use Dalvik". There also isn't a long boot time and the 'Android is upgrading' wait.
I am able to change to ART runtime if I do a clean flash of Omnirom but unable to do so after installing all of my apps.
Is there a log to see which apps are causing this? or if it's app related at all?
I am using Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300. I have also flashed SuperSU and Temasek Kernel.

I guess you are using exposed, that causes the issue with ART.

Ahh I see. Thanks.
Edit: Yep that was the issue. Uninstalled Xposed framework modifications and it worked. And also ART runtime doesn't seem to like low available space and will start causing crashes of apps.
I guess I'm a little late to the topic, but I installed CM11 on my nook color and my razr HD. After reading this thread, I uninstalled xposed from both devices.
Every time I change from Dalvik to Art, the boot process takes long, apps getting modified, and once it's all done and I check developer options, it's telling me that it runs Dalvik.
Is there a way to pinpoint which apps could cause this?
Would it be sufficient to remove all apps and then install one app after the other to see if Art is still running, or would I have to reinstall Android or at least wipe all user data?

Nexus 7 ART runtime help

Hello, I recently successfully unlocked the boot loader and rooted my device running stock Android 4.4.2 but I'm having a problem with the Dalvik and ART runtimes. I've read that when you change over from Dalvik to ART it takes about 20 minutes to change everything as ART requires about 10% more space for each app. But my problem is that whenever I click on "Use ART" and my tablet reboots, nothing happens. It turns off and boots up like normal without any changes, so I looked in the options and nothing changed. I'm still using Dalvik. I've tried this process a few times but still it boots up with Dalvik.
I have 3.5GB of space left on my device with about 8GB used so I don't know if that causing it not work or whether because I've rooted my device.
Any help would be appreciated

Are you using Xposed? Can't use ART if you are.
It could be Xposed.. the developer said Xposed relies on Dalvik, and it requires basically an entire rewrite to even test if its work porting to ART.
By the way I've switched from Dalvik to Art and so forth a few times now (I don't have Xposed) and I've had no issues. I prefer ART though.

Using Xposed with Art will most likely end in a bootloop. Art is faster but still a bit in Googles experimental phase.

The latest version of Xposed forces you back to Dalvik if you attempt to enable ART.
Thanks
Thanks for the replies everyone. I am using Exposed. I think I'll just keep using Dalvik for the moment instead of going through the hassle of deleing Xposed

[Q] Switch back to Dalvik from ART

I used to be on ART runtime running CM11 nightlies. Since couple of days,
nightlies refuse to work correctly using ART runtime (basically Phone UI will
crash on reboot, and much of others,too).
Having already reinstalled my phone from scratch to have confirmation that
the issue is due to the choice of runtime, I'm searching a way to switch back
to Dalvik runtime from ART, using ClockworkMod and avoid full reinstallation
of the phone.
Any ideas, hints ?

Youtube force close

I've done factory reset on this phone and I've wiped the YouTube app data and cache yet it's still doing it, I have no idea about this. I'm using APD1 firmware, it only does this force close on the subscription menu
Here's the video of it

Wipe data and cache for YouTube app, then in recovery mode, wipe cache partition. Will see if that helps.

I just did all of that and it seems to be working normally without any force close in the subscription menu, but I'm still afraid that it would come back after several hours of watching YouTube videos.
Edit : it just solved the issue temporarily, after a minute of scrolling down on the subscription menu, suddenly the force close thing came back -_-

Did you tried to reflash your rom with Odin? I'm on rooted stock rom and have no problems here.
