Hey,
I tried THIS thing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48273906&postcount=1021
Please take a look at what I did
1. Flashed CM and OdexerTool_1.1.1.1_ARMEABI.zip
2. Went to terminal, changed to linux, su => odex => all
It showed 40 mb system space, then started odexing, and failed at end, I typed "odex" again and it showed 0 mb sys space
Now because I have 0 mb system space, I wasn't able to flash gaaps.
Can you please tell me what mistake I did her. Sorry I'm kinda noob.
Thanks! C:
ART working with Dec 10 build
I was on Dec 5 build and ART never worked, so I was on delvik.
Steps I took:
1. From Dec 5, I flashed Dec 10 build
2. Cleared cache and dalvik
3. Reboot
4. It took around 15 mins to optimize my 125 apps
5. Got FC in google play and google core
6, Reboot into recovery and again wiped cache and dalvik
7. It again took 15 mins to optimize the apps
8. No FC, my defy is running very smoothly on ART.
Even whatsapp is working with Dec 10 build (Android 4.4.1)
I hope this will help.
You are saying that you had fully running system with all the apps and gapps installed and then switched to art, twice cleared cache and dalvik and suddenly everything started working without fc?
What exactly gapps do you have? Because there are 4.4.1 version now.....

Well, when I switched to ART on the 10 dec build, the phone app fc'd and wouldn't let me past. I rebooted to recovery, cleared cache and dalvik cache. Then it worked fine. Something must have gone wrong in the odex conversion process. Just try try again, I might just work

You didn't make a mistake, you just need to clear more space in /system. Try deleting ringtones, system apps that you don't use, etc. See here for a list of system apps that are safe to remove.
When I switched to ART using this method, it used up about 60 MB of space, but it worked. ART is working smoothly, with no FC's.
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
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 ?
Does Android Lollipop only support ART or does it support dalvik too, like Kitkat supported ART?
only ART I think

most likely only ART as that is the way they are going - The build and the kernel will be built on ART so I very much doubt there will be a dalvik version
Android Lollipop should be released on Friday 17th October however don't expect it to be any phones officially until Christmas although you can always check out dev builds from the released source code but don't expect it to be on the galaxy y 5360 as ART does not support armv6

That worries me
This week I had the Amazon app crash on me (nexus 5, 4.4.4, ART) while changing Amazon accounts (worked before, something happened while doing it which apparently corrupted the app permanently).
Cleared the app data/cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted, nothing fixed it. Every time I'd try to login, it crashed.
The only thing that fixed it was to revert back to Dalvik, then back to ART.
Looks like the conversion/recompiling process cleaned whatever got broken. Weird, as I'd expect uninstalling/reinstalling the app would suffice, if the corruption was limited to its own precompiled binary.
Without this, my only option would be a factory reset, I guess.
Even if Dalvik is dead, maybe we could get a "refresh" option for ART as a second-to-last resource.
This is a long shot but I have a rooted Galaxy S8 with LightRom on it (Android Pie). Today I wiped Cache + Dalvik cache using TWRP and when I restarted it it went through a short "optimizing apps" phase.
After it was done I unlocked my phone and found like 50% of my apps (random apps no specific category) just crash. If they have a loading animation, they go through that animation but then instantly crash.
Is there anything I can do without completely wiping it? i have a TWRP backup but I'm moving houses rn and don't want to take the hard way out for now. Please help
