What is the difference between Dalvik and ART?

I switched to ART and it took a good while to upgrade android apps, but not sure I notice a huge difference.

I switched and then switched back after some apps not behaving well, this xda app included.

I switched but then Private Mode didn't work. So I switched back to Dalvik.

I switched to art and then switched back and during reboot my phone showed the custom with the unlocked padlock. I rebooted again and it was a normal reboot.

Me too. I find the custom boot interesting and wonder if it can't be exploited.

Same thing here...just checked...might be something. ...Devs take notice.

ditto on the unlocked padlock when switching to ART. usually this means the bootloader is now unlocked. at least on the nexus line of phones...hmm
art works fine for me, however this device just doesn't seem as responsive as my nexus 5. I'm actually a little disappointed in the day to day performance. it's almost like its too aggressive with the memory management making apps cold start more often.

When I used ART, the MLB At Bat app would crash when trying to stream a game. So back to Dalvik I went lol.

yea, a good chunk of apps won't run in ART mode. just search for articles on it. luckily I don't really use any of those apps, so ART on my nexus 5 and s5 are just fine

Same experience....switched to ART and it had 435+ apps to "upgrade" - took FOREVER, then didn't really notice any benefit...in fact, the responsiveness felt ever so slightly "stuck." Very quickly switched back to Dalvik, rebooted quickly, only had to upgrade about 250 apps, and the phone seemed snappier...could just be a placebo effect, but don't really see the point in the ART just yet....stickin' with Dalvik for now....
I switched to ART, phone is pretty fast as it is so visibly no noticeable difference, however utilizing a memory cleaning app/monitor it does use less of the system RAM in ART mode. Which seems like a good thing. I do have a couple of apps that occasionally crash in ART, but not enough to make it annoying yet. Just seeing how well it works, I do like the fact that it is using less system resources. Since there is not ROOT in the foreseeable future for ATT S 5's and I cannot get rid of bloatware, I will take what I can get.
I switched to ART.. Phone ran hot actually.. didn't seem any faster.. faster battery drian...switched back
Ok update. Started acting weird, apps were not functioning right, phone started having random lockup behavior. Switched back, all is good.

Is there a thread for these two apps? Ever since they released the new UI for these 2 apps I've had nothing but force close issues on startup. It never fails. It will open and look fine but as soon as I open a thread or start to scroll down it force closes. But the strange part is I can reopen the app immediately and it works fine. It does not matter which device I use. For awhile I thought it was because I was rooted but now I have an HTC one still haven't rooted or modified it in any way and still having the exact same issue. I have been reporting this crash since the day the update came out. I'm losing more and more respect with tapatalk with each update.
If this will not be fixed any time soon what are your opinions on a good alternative app?
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I use both apps and dont have that problem.
I imagine you tried to uninstall both and wipe and re install.
Yea.. I have 3 phones and it happens on all three devices. Optimus G, HTC one, and galaxy s4.

Had that issue for a while, certain threads would kill the app every time. Haven't noticed it in a while though. I do have issues with trying to access the sprint one main thread through the favorites screen, where it just goes blank. No other major issues though. XDA premium, btw.
Sent from my beige box using xda premium
Are all these threads in sprint htc one?
Thats the only section im in right now and I just have never had an issue
For me it's the default screen. The notifications screen. It will display that screen but as soon as I tap an article (which yea it happens to be most sprint HTC one threads the app will shut down but I can immediately reopen the app and use every feature without an issue. But as soon as I turn my screen off or use another app or wait a bit before using xda premium or tapatalk it does it again..

It got worse with the 4.3 update. I'm having to use the old free version of the xda app.. from the looks of it after reading around a lot of other people are having the same issue. Is there a thread we can report these issues to? I've been reporting on every crash since I updated the app. With this "crashes upon first startup ###" the numbers are the amount of times I've reported the same crash. I'm at 167.

I have rooted my phone and I noticed that a lot of times when I exit an app I get a message saying it fc'd. Other times I can launch an app and it fc's but if I launch it again it runs fine. I don't know what caused this but I was wondering if maybe it would resolve the issue if I use rom toolbox pro and fix permissions. Any thoughts on this?

The last time I went to XDA through an app I used Tapatalk instead of XDA because I already use Tapatalk for all the other forums. I did buy the XDA app to support XDA, I just don't like keeping so many different apps all for forums. I found that the Tapatalk app doesn't crash when I browse on it, if you wanted to try that?
i've noticed that it crashes when you are giving to many inputs i.e. tapping too much. If you avoid this, the app works well.
There is also an issue of tap detection. when i try to reply to someone i have to tap on the post below the one desired. :/ but it doesnt crash the app... so thats a plus right?

Appreciate it. Yeah, I've never quite gotten used to Facebook, still keep forums I've been on for years.... Tapatalk is a really nice way to organize them all. The only thing that drives me nuts is that when you go to download a file off of a forum it opens a browser which kind of disrupts the flow, but I think XDA app did the same thing. That would be a tremendously useful thing for the XDA app to do is manage XDA downloads, but for all I know it does that now, I haven't used the XDA app in awhile. These ATT ROMs are around a gig sometime... Hell to download on a mobile phone just because so many things seem to be able to break the download. And the download managers seem to hiccup sometimes with the site that are primarily used for hosting, don't know why.
I bought the xda premium app a couple years ago to show my support. But it does suck on this phone. Doesn't show pictures corectly. The search function is not very helpful. When I open it if it's been in the the background for a while it won't connect to the server to refresh. I have to close it and open it again. Also when leaving the app the animation lags really bad. I always thought it ironic that the XDA app was so buggy lol
**side note- I don't know the first thing about making apps or how hard they are to debug and make run smoothly on all devices. So I'm not hating. Just throwing it out there...
Sent from my SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If this has been covered, I can't search from my phone using Web (keeps refreshing when I use search box), and this app isn't showing me anything.
My YouTube keeps crashing for some reason within the past couple hours. It was working fine up until then. I have tried uninstalling & reinstalling, rebooting phone, all with no luck.
I am running stock rooted 4.3 with SS recovery, and don't have the Xposed YouTube ad blocker which I know has caused recent problems. I also haven't made any system changes or app installations.

In my opinion 10 hours is pretty good flr moderate use, im not you though of course. Have you tried turning on auto brightness/using a brightness app/turning doen brightness, that may help, also fot wakelocks i believe greenify will help with that.
