The issues are the same as CM11.

Sorry for noob question, but op says based off cm10.2 which is android 4.3. CM11 is 4.4, is this 4.3 or 4.4?

I think the verbiage from the OP is old or it's from when the ROM was started; at any rate this is a KitKat 4.4.2 ROM, based on CM11 with some SlimRoms stuff too.

Issue note!

Because there are issues with remounting /system rw, you may need to "adb root" then "adb remount" for settings in the "BeanStalk options" to stick. I'm thinking specifically of the build.prop mods and the init.d scripts but there may be others...

EDIT: I've posted my performance settings in OP3.

EDIT2: After a quick look, I got "Screen Recording" fixed. Will be released with next build...

EDIT3: Posted a screen record of some of the settings in beanstalk (OP 4) ...

Those tweaks definitely make the ROM "feel" even faster.

Running ART this device is flying!

The only downsides so far are that as soon as I have more than 2 or 3 apps open, the player tends to lock up (at least before I applied your tweaks in post 3), but I guess that's to be expected from such an old device.

3G hack?

Since I applied those settings, I have not had any lockups, even with multiple apps open but I'm not using ART. :good:

Um... While there are "phone" related settings in the ROM, they don't apply to our device....

ratyfu · Jan 25, 2014

Well, I just wanted to give ART a try and the responsiveness of the device now compares to my quad core tablet.
Of course loading times are a bit different, with Google Now always taking forever searching, and Chrome hating tabs, but as this has nothing to do with dalvik/art and even though I miss xposed framework, I think I couldn't go back to dalvik now.

Tl;dr: I recommend trying ART.

Nope.

JUST FYI:

Since we don't have a "custom" kernel for kitkat ATM I've started working on one and I'll be integrating it into BeanStalk.. I call it "nutella" (you now that chocolatey stuff

)

Source here: https://github.com/Meticulus/nutella_kernel_samsung_venturi

I'm working on OC to 1520mhz right now... Alot of things will, most likely, be borrowed from sultans kernel but will probably not be as highly optimized as his was. I just want to get some stable moderate overclocking and to put in only tweaks that I understand, not really having as much kernel experience...

I'm testing OC to make sure I've gotten rid of SOD's....

I tried to do it without getting rid of 100 and 200mhz but it looks like they just have to go!

ratyfu · Jan 27, 2014

SODs appear to be the last problem left, at least on my device. Sometimes it takes a minute or so of button pressing to get to the lockscreen. Your suggested tweaks in OP3 made a huge difference in multitasking. No more hangups. Looking forward to your new kernel! :thumbup:
Although it's almost not necessary to change anything on the system.

Before my last changes that I'm testing locally, once the device goes to sleep you can't get it to ever wake up.... I think I got that fixed though but the last problem is that overclocking settings in performance do not stick after a reboot...

EDIT: I think I got it stable.

Deep Sleep does not seem to be used unless OC is on ( Which is good, improves battery life, especially when not in use)

Also - didn't realize how much there was in "Performance Control"!

Sorry for sort of spamming the thread, I just want to give some feedback. :good:

After the last update, I've noticed that Google Play Services go a little crazy regarding wakelocks. My device refuses to go into deep sleep.
Also, the wakelock stats in BBS and WLD are all messed up. Almost every wakelock has the same duration and count (Count:0 / Count:1)
To stop these wakelocks and make the changes stick, again mounting system rw in adb is a must. I am not quite sure though, if that really stops the wakelocks, as BBS and WLD only show that weird data.
In the battery screen it shows that the device is awake all of the time and Google Play Services is number one in the list of battery usage, with Keep Awake time of 2h44m in a total of 11h50m since unplugged.
I have all location services, reporting, etc. turned off.

The good news is, I can live with that, because other than that (and I can get almost two days without charging, which actually isn't bad at all), your ROM is just amazing, and I can't praise your work enough. :victory:

I believe that the "mounting" issues i related to selinux. I might disable selinux in future builds.With my current changes to the "nutella" kernel ( as you can see by the photo ), it does go into deep sleep.... I definitely get better battery life, even when I OC to 1.5 GHz...:good:

I'm not sure when the next release of BeanStalk will be but, If anyone's interested.. I could build and post the "nutella" kernel so you can check it out.... Not sure if it will work on other kk roms...

Thank you for the praise but keep in mind that I'm building on the work of others, most of which are mentioned in the OP... They deserve the praise too.:good:

ratyfu · Jan 29, 2014

If you find the time to build it I'm sure I'd not be the only one to appreciate that

I'd love to try out your new "nutella" kernel! Thanks for all the hard work!

NUTELLA

USA: http://www.4shared.com/zip/3ezFVaPkce/BeanStalk_442-YP-G70-USA-NUTEL.html
INT: http://www.4shared.com/zip/ZNgI1Rj8ba/BeanStalk_442-YP-G70-INT-NUTEL.html

NOTES:

OC Settings might not stick after reboot?
Deep Sleep might not get used unless WIFI is allowed to sleep or turned off?

With my performance settings in the OP3 my device feels like slippery butter on a marble table! Let me know how your experience is...

josephcantrell4 · Jan 31, 2014

The only problem I've encountered is the INT nutella kernel will occasionally cause the device to reboot. I have it OC to 1520 MHz and have your suggested performance tweaks enabled.
