ART and Dalvik runtime - Galaxy Note II General

I see that cm 11 has to option to change from Dalvik to ART.
Any precautions or special instructions one should take before switching?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app

Basically I wouldn't do it unless you full data wipe, in fact I'd wipe everything, install cm, boot, flip the switch, wipe system and caches, flash ROM, flash gapps and cross my fingers. Seems to break every app (wiping caches no help) and essentially force me into a full data wipe / restore to get a phone back if I try without a wipe.
Hint: always nandroid, Hint: there is a Nexus 5 art to dalvik flashable zip which I knows works too. (Google the same), Hint: its been awhile since I used ART.

Well if you have newly installed the CM rom,switch to ART right after you set up the ROM initially that way the system will have less apps to convert to ART runtime but one can do it even after installing all the apps on their phone would just take longer that's all. Just be sure not to install any non ART runtime supported app cause if you do and when you reboot it will switch back to DALVIK. that's the only precaution you need to take

only one drawback i see in A.R.T. is, its not compatible with Xposed framework

ART made my old nexus 7 feel like a new device. Apps open up faster. Scrolling is overall smoother everywhere and stuttering is greatly reduced.
Haven't had any issues with it whatsoever.
And yes I did use the option in the developer settings to switch.

Any special setup, or just flip the switch on developer settings and reboot?

No camera with the JB update

I seem to have no camera installed after the JB update. I click on the icon and it says not installed. How would I get the camera back on?

The shortcut may just be corrupt, look in the app list and see if it's there (and re-create your shortcut.)
If it's not in the app list (and your trying to use the EOS release) then it's possible that you need to format your /system partition and try installing EOS and gapps again.
If your on the OTA, I have no idea how to help.
Airesch is probably correct. If you're using a shortcut to launch the Camera try deleting it and launching it from the app drawer or making a new shortcut.
Exactly as said, if you on rooted image of team eos hellybean ROM, gapps has a little issue and it was advised to do the following to fix all apps shortcuts including camera, and video chat, however, face unlock is till begin worked on,
Wipe cache,
Wipe dalvik,
Format system partition,
Flash ROM again,
Flash gapps right after,
Then reboot,

Working here dadavices. Not sure what to tell you. I'm on bone stock JB Xoom
Similar problem here with OTA stock update - except mine was the calendar and calculator app - even though the apks and odex files were in system/apps..
Is camera listed in Settings>Apps? With V411?
Does it allow "uninstall updates"? This did not fix mine... but was related...
My cured ... two solutions..
A) Full wipe after the OTA update fixed it.. and.
B) If you have a ICS backup - revert back. In Settings>Apps - run "Uninstall updates" on all system apps that have the option. Revert back to stock system and boot partitions - and let the OTA run again.

Getting fc's on on all roms

Just like its says. I even backed up stock ROM and now getting fc's on July plus

No need to start a second thread for this... I'll say it again, have you wiped data in between ROMs? Or what are you doing after installing the ROM if you've wiped it?

Make sure to wipe everything before installing a new ROM, then run fix permissions (advanced options in CWM recovery) from either your recovery or from ROM Manager. After reinstalling all your apps and settings, make sure to fix permissions again.
Wipe system before you install your ROM, in addition to wiping cache, dalvik, data. If you do it right it will work

Typically unnecessary, as it its generally wiped during the install process.

I like to be sure, and I haven't had any problems installing ROMs on my N7, and I've flashed pretty much every one there is, kernels too. There have been ROMs that liked to be flashed 3 times for no real reason, so I say its good practice to manually format partitions, caches etc yourself, even if it's supposed to be done on install. If I do it manually, I know that it has been done

You could probably use adb to side load a ROM and gapps, here's a example of how to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986

Isnt factory reset, just wiping cache and dalvik? If yea, then dirty install isnt the best, depends on rom that im moving from.

factory reset wipes /cache, and /data (without wiping /data/media <--thats where all your pictures and rom zips are stored)
factory reset is needed when moving between completely different ROMs (you can get away with dirty flashes between SOME roms, but its rare)
Oh yea yea, I didn't wipe the internal, something went wrong and the file was deleted, but gapps was there and all my data was there, anyways fixed and got the new nexus 7, enjoying it, much faster and better!

How to uninstall torchlight mod? - SOLVED

Hi. I flashed the mod from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355931
in order to get the torchlight option like on the s4 active. I've noticed since then that my S Health app crashes (it's not the multi Window app that is causing it, I had that problem before so I had uninstalled the multi window apk). Does anyone know how I can get rid of the torchlight mod without restoring my phone? Thank you in advance...

boot into your custom recovery, wipe cache & dalvik. flash rom/kernel/gapps/loki-doki (whatever it is specifically you need to flash). wipe both caches again and reboot.
that should overwrite the mod without resetting any of your shtuff. cheers.
Thank you so much, I'm a bit confused though, you are saying I have to dirty flash the rom I have, and loki doki? Thanks!

Are you using updated GAPPS? Try re-flashing the current version of apps for your rom and seeing if that resolves your problem.
- Br4nd3n
also are you using a different DPi with playstore? ie. Paranoid Android or Per App DPi with Xposed?

Did you try just reflashing the gapps? I had an issue during a flash once were my Google store installed & opened but wouldn't let me download anything new or verify any license for my paid apps; making then force close. Reflashing fixed my problem.

A clean installation should resolve the issue, (clearing system, dalvik, data and cache) than reflash your ROM first followed by gapps before rebooting. If you're flashing a different kernel as well than first flash the ROM > Kernel > gapps and make site you clear your dalvik and cache before flashing gapps.

You returned to stock with odin and it still won't work? If you have then it's an issue with your Google account.
Try clearing all the cache for anything that has to do with google in your application manager. (ex - framwork services, play store, etc.)
