Which gapps should I install with hits offical rom ? I wont to be minimalistic and to battery last as long as it can without freezing ofc? :) Is PA micro ok? Or something else? Tnx
PA Micro or Pico are fine.
Alternatively try jajb's minimal Gapps, I prefer these as they are a continuation of the great work Banks did, and are smaller files to download.

New build is up at the DU G+ community, guys.
Much stable than previous builds, but still a soft reboot log attached

We are interested!

Hey, if it is just me and/or nobody is interested, please let me know and I will stop posting hese logs

Cheers
We are interested, and I really thank you for your logs...
I'm sure @chasmodo reads and follows at our insights, and even if he does post little (remember there are also Asylum and other DU builds for other phones!), I have proof we have a feedback:
for example I have asked about the charging animation in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=55959903#post55959903
and some time after I see these in gerrit:
http://gerrit.dirtyunicorns.com/#/c/6869/
http://gerrit.dirtyunicorns.com/#/c/6870/

(unless they are unrelated to my request, but I'm happy anyway :) )

Well, thanks for your reply.

Since I dont see much activity on the subject I started to think my device has gone wild... In any event, I know @chasmodo for a number of years now. I am a devote follower of the guy but try not to bug him because as you say, he does care for a number of devices and as all devs on the site, he has a life (and a very active one for that sake l :) ) . The good thing is that Ive noticed that usesr tend to behave in a more mature way and wait patiently

And regarding the issue, I also noteced that he added a "Hot Reboot" option to the Power Menu. It must be for a reason realted to this.

The most strange thing about this is that we didnt have soft reboots (not that I experienced) until just recently. I did experienced freezes and full reboots. These are rather new to me ..

So I will keep posting, at least once in every build (uless I am ssked otherwise ).

Thanks again, !

Blacklist/Dialer Prob

All flashed nicely & smoothly.

Loving it, but one prob when I try to add a "private number" to the blacklist I get a "Unfortunately, Dialler has stopped." message with a OK button which takes me back to the dialer.

Any thoughts?

I used the latest raw kernel (raw_kernel_r6_k44) then flashed build
DU_n7000_4.4.4_20141025-0419.v8.1-TESTBUILD then DU_n7000_4.4.4_20141026-0631.v8.1-TESTBUILD and am now on DU_n7000_4.4.4_20141017-0840.v8.1-OFFICIAL

Seems to occur with any launcher.

I take it launcher3 does not support folders in the app draw?

Thanks

PS I'm using pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20141019-signed gapps

PS2
I've gone back and flashed with raw_kernel_r4_j43 & then 8.1 official & gapps as well as wiping everything in sight. But some apps that I had installed were still there & functional??

But the call was clear so waiting for a "private number" call.

PS3

No that's not fixed it, any thoughts apart from doing some sort of factory reset back to TW and try again?

Private num Black list problem

OK I can add numbers that are in my contacts list to the black list when they call but not "private numbers" when they call. A private number I believe is a number that has been withheld.

Anybody else have this?

Oh.. shucks .. shik.. four hours into 10/26 and not a single glithch.. a late record . @chasmodo is doing something underground. Thanks friend
Dirty flash or clean one?

I was on 7.9 and dirty flashed 8.1 over it. Due to dynamic color problems I had lots of system.ui problems.
New dirty flashes did not solve the problem. Even flashing an older version, formatting /system, /cache etc did not work.
Only restoring an old backup helped me. So I wonder whether it would be OK if I dirty flashed 10/26 over 7,8.

Hi @chasmodo,

Thanks for your continued support and efforts, at bringing us feature rich builds to our aging device...

The other day I asked where the "CallRecordings" were being saved too, as couldnt see any GUI / Popups stating where the recordings were going too. I managed to find them myself in the end anyway.

Although I noticed this latest build, going via the Gerrit statements, say there is a method to view / play your recordings via going to Call History, and selecting from there... I am not seeing this, am I doing something wrong...??

Many thanks, Lister
Just tossing in there, have you already tried TWRP recovery --> Advanced --> Fix Permissions?
There are various "permission denied" "unknown permission" and such in your logcat.
I won't bet this will resolve anything but it's worth a try...

what I have in common with you is the Java null pointer thing:
Code:
10-19 13:03:36.150 W/System.err(5408): java.lang.NullPointerException
and I see you have Google Keep like me, which appear to be the latest thing doing something before the killing of SuperSU:
Code:
10-19 16:01:15.095 I/ActivityManager(11909): Start proc com.google.android.keep for broadcast com.google.android.keep/.notification.AlertReceiver: pid=14516 uid=10069 gids={50069, 3003, 1028, 1015, 1023}
10-19 16:01:15.095 I/ActivityManager(11909): Killing 13713:eu.chainfire.supersu/u0a58 (adj 15): empty #17
I'm unable to see if there is anything else relevant :(


And now, a review of mine of 8.1 on this matter:

after some days, 8.1 official seems much fluid and stable, now I have a freeze/soft reboot around every 2 days (starting from 1-2 per day). This time I kept all of apps in internal memory, I got some soft reboots and crashes but never while texting as before.
In detail, I got:
- a freeze while browsing apps
- one while unlocking screen
- one while recording a video with Google Camera (discarded for AOSP camera, haven't got anymore issues)
- and a bunch while using Dolphin browser.
The latest ones (camera and Dolphin) could be also due to corrupted data/something similar (maybe it's not a good idea to let TitaniumBackup to restore data too).
Overall, my phone has become much stable. I wish to suggest everyone experimenting lockups to transfer all of apps in internal memory if there are apps in external SD.

A big thank you @chasmodo and all of the team DIRT :)
I'm still going to continue investigating on freezes and such, hoping this can make a much stable ROM
I never do a full wife unless I am told do so rr I feel my phone is so messed up it deserves it.

My phone has been on for some eight hours without a glitch.

I also disabled dynamic color changer. I don't know it this has something to do with the current status of my setup .

@chasmodo and friends:

It is my perception that the Dynamic Color Changer (or something related to this mod ) is the culprit for the reboots Ive been experiencing.

I say this because I flashed 10/26 about 12 hours ago and everithing went fine until I decided to give this feature a shot.

I wet to my Facebook app and inmediatelly had a freeze.. so I had to reboot and turned the feature off and have been using the phone flawlesly again.

Cheers.

Just dirtyflashed from Official. In first 10 minutes all goes well. :D

Not an error but a warning I see in logcat each time I press one of the backlighted keys (return, menu, maybe happens with other keys too...).

Code:
10-27 12:29:48.630 W/AudioTrack(2372): AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_FAST denied by client due to mismatching sample rate (48000 vs 44100)
Just to report :D
