Dalvik Cache - HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anybody else notice a significant gain in performance by disabling it in your settings. Personally I have, and was curious, what is exactly 'dalvik cache' and what does it do?

no 3d setting. put a bunch of new names for the settings like data roaming instead of wireless settings
personal data instead of privacy.
hope that helps
really no new settings?
in settings>display that says 3d homescreen?
I can tell you in a minute, im booting it back up now!
Deleted my settings, i have no settings now!
Forgot to delete cache and dalvike before flash and settings got deleted. Re-wiped then flashed again, and it worked. I turned settings on and home screen was 3d BUT the calibration seemed off it wouldn't return to normal when I stopped moving phone

yea try calibrating the g sensor
That worked... Thank you for all your work, it's greatly appreciated!
SHOTS FIRED!!! From 3 Dimensions!
First try no settings...second try seems as if it worked but is off. I tried taking a screen shot but it doesn't come out good enough to see. Very close though...good work
*update, I tried calibrating and it seems better but not 100%. I shall try some more and see what happens then update post.
**update, ummm I have no settings now. All I did was power down completely and reboot. Now I tap settings and nothing happens. From the pull down bar I hit All Settings and get the below error.
The application Status Bar (process com. android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Can't seem to get my settings back :-(
Ive redone this 3 times and still no settings, but im getting an error, no sd-ext when i wipe dalvik

Hey... I noticed this in the update script...
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p23", "/system")
i just so happen to have my SD partitioned with an ext4, alongside with a 1gig swap partition [irrelevant]. idk just saying, might be helpful to have the ext4 right?
so i wiped both caches, flash, and wiped both again... boot up, and i have no settings (click menu>settings, doesn't work)... I checked the app drawer, and also, no settings there. So then I used root explorer to delete Settings.apk from /system/app... and then i added in your copy... Unfortunately, I forgot to enable non-market installs (fresh rom install). So, I'm reflashing the rom, and then you zip....
Works for me...Did you include a setting for the dock in it?
EDIT: I Turned it off because it is annoying when it just moves randomly as i move my phone when i dont want it to lol

Have you done any restarts on the phone? Did you do anything different during install?
I'm really curious why this is working for some yet, I still have no settings anymore.
You still working on this?

Brightness issue

I have a problem with the brightness function on my GS3. I have installed Omega V26 (JB) and did a good wipe (format data / format system / factory reset / wiped caches and fixed permissions). But somehow the brightness function isn't working well.
As soon as i've locked my GS3 and turn it back on, the brightness is at it's lowest, turning it on manually than it's fine as long as I don't lock my phone. I tried everything (disabled power saving option, smart stay, disable auto brightness, adjusting the browser brightness, installed third pary app like auto lux etc. The funny thing is, i don't have these problems on ICS based roms. Any ideas?
My advice is to ask in the thread of the Rom you downloaded. Maybe someone in there can help

[Q] CarbonRom LGOG Performance Control Settings

Let me first apologize for not posting in the correct dev thread, for that I do not have permissions to do so. Also like to thank all the devs for their hardwork, time, & commitment to helping others.
I have recently flashed my LGOG E970 to SnowJB's (Team Carbon) CarbonRom. However, I notice extreme battery drain (~1% every 2-3minutes) using the default Kernel. I tried to adjust the performance control settings to lower the min setting from 1026 to 384 but the settings will not save /stick.
I ended up flashing to Houcha's geeb kernel based on someone's post of a similiar battery drain problem. However, unlike that user I am still experiencing major battery drains. Once again i tried to adjust the Performance Control settings and still have the problem of it not "sticking".
Any ideas on how to get the settings to stick or resolve this crazy battery drain issue?
FYI: LGNPST to JB 4.1.2 -> Rooted -> Unlocked -> Flashed CarbonRom with CWM v6 per OP directions
Thanks in advance
Disable performance control with titanium backup. Download trickster mod app or similar and use that. I had the best battery performance using houstonn's modded 192 mhz kernel.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
thank you
Thank you kind Sir for the tip. I ended up freezing the performance controller with mybackup pro. It sort of fix the issue for now, but it still does not save the settings with a reboot. I just have to remind myself to reconfigure trickster every time I power off

I too experience this, however as mentioned above with houstonn's 192mhz kernel, the settings will stick; verified working on my CarbomROM LGOG.
I'll try it out

I will flash the 192mhz ROM and let you know if it resolves my issue the same as it resolved yours. ty

If you find your settings to be stable after continuous use, in Trickster if you hit menu, there's a set on boot option. Just enable it, and I think you can also ask for a notification from Trickster when it does start.

[H] Problems with brightness

Hi all! I'm having some brightness issues on my Razr i and any help would be great!
I'm on stock 4.1.2 and was using Power Toggles brightness slider to change the brightness, but suddenly, with no changes on the phone, the brigthness level would change only after turning screen off/on. But the problem is not related to the app I think, because even auto brightness isn't working properly... I mean, when it has to get brighter, it works, but when it has to dim, again only if I turn off/on the screen.
Does anyone know what could be causing it?
Thanks in advance!
Sorry for the bad english.

Although you don't think the app is causing the brightness problem's I would recommend uninstalling it for troubleshooting purposes and seeing if after you have uninstalled the app and rebooted the phone if after some time the problem persists. This way we can rule out if the app is or isn't causing the problem.

Thanks for the reply. I did uninstall it and the problem remains... I installed volume slider (which has a brightness slider too) and the same happens: non "real time" brightness changing and the auto brightness still doesn't work properly... =/

That is odd, I would recommend booting into recovery and performing a factory reset and then see if that fixes your problem.

This is what I was afraid of... =/
I will just wait a little longer to see if anybody faced this issue before. I'm pretty sure a factory reset will do (since it started to act like this all of a sudden) but I want to find the cause so it won't happen again or, if it happens, I won't need to do a factory reset...
It's weird... what could make this issue appear? =/

One possible way of figuring out what is causing this issue to happen is to generate a logcat when you are adjusting the brightness settings and see if the log reports any background processes that are causing errors with the brightness control.

Thanks for helping me!
I never generated a logcat before. So I installed CatLog from Store and generated a logcat doing the following:
1) Set brightness to auto
2) Put the phone under a lamp
3) Turned of all the lights: the brightness didn't change
4) Turned off and on the screen: when the screen turned on, the brightness was already on a lower level
The logcat is pretty messed... it shouldn't be like that right? =/
Is this helpful?

From looking at the logcat there is a lot of errors and warning messages with loading certain library files and Android runtime services that relate to power and screen brightness sensing. Another peculiar thing I noticed was that NFC seemed to be generating a couple error messages as well. Overall you were definitely right about it not being a normal log in this situation, I also like your testing methodology :good:.

Just wiped data through CWM and the autobrightness still doesn't work properly...when it has to get brighter, it gets, but when it has to dim, it doesn't...

You could also try re-flashing the stock ROM to see if that fixes it, another suggestion that could possibly work is running a fix permissions utlity.
Reflashed stock rom and reinstalled all my apps. Everything was fine. Went to bed and woke up, the same problem with power toggles reappeared...
EDIT: found what was causing it! It is the latest version of Floating Notifications (when show on lockscreen is enabled)!
Thanks a lot shimp!

That's wicked bizarre that even after all those things the problem still persists. You could try bringing it in to Verizon to see if they can do anything otherwise a hardware issue may have arisen.

Recent apps auto clears overnight

I've been facing this problem, ever since the Pie upgrade. Every morning i find that only the 4 most recent app are available in the recent apps screen. The later ones are automatically cleared up by the system i guess.
I have searched the settings a lot but couldn't find any option that turns this auto clearing off.
Anyone have a idea how to fix this?
Thanks.

I checked every settings under device care. Even turned off settings that are related to battery optimization like putting unused apps to sleep and disable unused apps etc.
Do you by chance chance the limit to 4 background processes in developer settings ?
