@Moose0704, do you experience some graphical glitches in the video playback? My tablet suffers some glitches, either it's from streaming, or any other sources. But streaming suffer the most. App tested : Stock player, MX Player, My Canal+. Using the same Wifi, same apps and same Mahdi Rom on Nexus 5, no problem at all. Any kernel tweaks should I apply here?

I've used MX Player (w/ H/W+ decoder enabled) on x264 and xvid in mp4 and mkv containers up to 1080p with no issues. I've also had no issues with Plex, Youtube, and Netfix. Maybe try wiping your cache partition and your app caches?

Well... :cool:
Humor Me and take a quick screenshot.. I'm sure we would all love to a G-Pad that goes 72 hours and not loose a single percent.. ;)

on the day where I made this experience, was the GPad several days (2-3) without use in the Standby. :good:

I looked now under my screenshots and saw, which I made after the 1. day a screenshot of it. ;)

you can see on the Shot, that my GPad after approx. 28 hours has lost no percent to accumulator. :cool:






Best Regards

Are you on TWRP 2.7.0.1? There was an dimness issue with 2.7.0.0 if you came from 4.4.2 stock.

That's pretty amazing. I lose 4% after 36 hours with wifi and sync on w/ wifi using up 50%. This gives me about 38 days of standby. I bet I can more and double it if I disable wifi.

does anyone ever get audio glitches, where the sound makes a weird noise for half a second every now and then? i seem to only get it when CPU usage is high, but it's pretty annoying- happened on SlimKat as well.

Same here, on Music, Videos & Games. Maybe lowering the max frequency can stop this?

My apologies if this has been discussed before, but I searched for a while without seeing an answer. I absolutely love this ROM, but would like to see what results switching to ART runtime would produce. After choosing to switch and rebooting, it still remains in Dalvik runtime. Is it possible to switch runtimes on this ROM?

Yes. On MX Player while watching a video. For half a second ever few minutes. Pretty annoying. Any solutions?

Yes but cannot use xpose or any other apps incompatible with art. Switch to art just after clean flash and will work.
Okay, I just performed a dirty flash before trying so I guess that explains it. Have you tried switching to ART? Did you see any improvement? This tablet flies with this ROM, but it can always be faster :D

Yes, I'm using ART on all my devices (in my sig you may find link for minimal gaps I use). To be honest, in theory ART should be faster, smoother, whatever but in practice the most noticeable is that installing apps takes much longer :D

Hi! Trying to set max gpu to 400 MHz but after a while it goes down to 128 MHz. Tried with both Trickster and built-in kernel tweaker.
Done a search but haven't found anything on this.

Love this ROM, but in my university, the tab randomly looses WiFi Signal after a few minutes. Anyone else know about this? Tried Slimkat and Liquid ROM too, they seem to have the same issue
