Nook HD+ Play Store on WiFi slow, other downloads fast - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I'm at my witts end on this and can not seem to get it resolved myself.
I have two Nook HD+'s and the both exhibit the same problem - either on my home or work network.
When I connect to wi-fi, my "normal" downloads are fine (streaming, copying files over LAN, large WWW downloads) - Circa 30Mbps, but anything I try and get through Play Store comes down at 10-20Kbps
I have tried a combination of:
cm-11-20140804-SNAPSHOT-M9-ovation / pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20140818-signed
cm-10.2.1-ovation / gapps-jb-20130813-signed
cm-11-20140819-NIGHTLY-ovation / pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20140818-signed
Other than the various versions above, I have tried
- Clearing all caches & factory resets (after each install)
- Optimise / normal WiFi modes
- Clearing GApps & Play Store Cash & reset.
My two phones (LG G3 4.4 & HTC One X CM 10 4.3) do not exhibit this problem.
I have no idea what to try.
Please help meeeeeee
Regards
Jason

Sorted it!
Enabled the ART kernel
Job done.

Bugger Facebook won't work under ART
Put it back to Davilk - problem still fixed!
Result
What could have caused the problem?

Switching to art and back to dalvic should only recreate the dalvic cache, I would think. A new rom flashing should also recreate it so probably just a coincidence.
The problem could have also been at the router/wifi ap or even the google severs if the tablets were being routed to different ones then the phones. Either of these are what I would pick.

[Q] NookieComb 4.13OC bugs

First off, this is a great ROM. Since I purchased my NC a couple months ago, I have had CM7 (up to nightly 32), Deeper Blue's 3.0v4 and Ultimate Droid and this one, IMHO works better even with a couple bugs and wonder if anyone else has had the same issues and found a workaround.
1) I get an error message that says "android.process.media has stopped working" and it force closes whatever media I am using except video and also affects the market when I try to download an app. I have cleared the dalvek cache and also reinstalled the ROM and I am still getting the error.
2) Issues downloading and sideloading apps. Some apps, mostly games and wallpapers will force reboot when I try to download or sideload them. For sideload, I have used Root Explorer and Easy Installer.
For first time installation of this ROM, format system, data and cache before the installation.
Worked fine for me.
Cheers!

Can't DL apps from Market since the "Factory data reset"

Hello everyone,
My issue is not new, many of us had to face it. I spent the whole day searching a solution which would work for me, but in vain. So, I'm sorry for making a new thread for an old problem but none of the suggested solutions worked for me.
I've made the "Factory data reset" today and since then I can't download anything from the market ( I receive the "Download unsuccessful" message)
There's no problem in 2 cases :
- via the Desktop version of the market (even with my account)
- another primary account (but on the same phone)
I've tried :
- Reseting the Factory data several times.
- Deleting Data and/or Cache of the Market/Gtalk/Chekin Service/....
- Logging in/out Gtalk
- Yelling on my phone/pc
- Formating my sd card
None of these worked, I'm hopeless...
Please come save my soul.

Google Play Services FC every time

Hi everyone. I've installed TheROM build 23 on my beloved Optimus 2X, everything was great, everything worked, but now 1 problem occured for me - Google Settings (Google Play Services) started to FC every time on startup. I've had this problem on tonyp's ParanoidAndroid ROM, the T5 build had no problems with this, and with this rom this problem re-appeared. It could happen either after I changed the DPI settings in TheROM Hybrid menu, or after installing feav's camera, which i guess is not the case. I've tried to reset the DPI to back what it was, to clear all the data of Google Play Market, Services, Framework, and it still FC's. Anyone had the same problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?
Try Parameters => Applications => All => Menu touch screen => Re-init preferences..
Reboot and retry.
So, i had the same issue last week on TonyP Build 5, no way to recover (even deleting and restoring Play store).., just after a couple of hours after flashing Camera feav.. Only way was to restore previous save of Rom via CMW..

Cast version works perfectly fine.
Any chance you could include OmniSwitch in the next build @infrag? And possibally an option to use that as default recents? If not, no problemo!

updated modern, still getting invalid mmi
I was getting loads of chinese text through with the ussd/mmi system like trubul here, infact I made a thread about it. And also the loss of ussd code functionality with "invalid mmi code" error that he described.
Azlanhu says:
"had the same problem. Apparently, u need to flash the new modem/baseband I9305XXUFNI3 . "
Trubul seems satisfied with the solution, however when I flash the modem linked, whilst it sorts out the Chinese text, I still get invalid mmi codes all the time.
Am I missing something? Is a baseband something separate I need to flash, and if so where can I find it. Or something else?
Cheers.

SlimKat vs SlimSaber
I know that Slim Saber Saber with the mod has been created, but I do not see quite the difference, so I would like to know your opinion of what you think are friendly for BATTERY?

SlimKat 4.4.4 8.6 Camera issue
Really nice rom - well done! The only issue I found so far on i9305 is that the camera does not work - it crashes when trying to access it. Even installed Camera MX but that freezes the phone completely on a black screen and a restart is required. I've noticed others were having the same issue. Are there any fixes for this?
Anghirrim said:
Hi, camera used to be fixed by just going back into CWM and wipping cache + dalvik cache. It used to work for me.
For the DPI, did you activate the root in the security option. I think you need it.

I have the exact same issue with my camera. It was working before V8.6 but now I can't seem to fix it anymore.
No wiping of cache, even clean install (with format of /system) didn't do any good.
I also tried to extract various camera2.apk packages from older versions but I always run into the same problem
when starting up the stock camera app (other camera apps result in a freeze of the entire phone).
Unfortunately this time this does not solve my camera issue, and I assume it's the same for the others here. I even tried to replace the camera2.apk with various apks from older releases but it didn't help either. And if I try different camera software (apps) the systems just freezes completely. Any ideas?

Install CMFix from the Play Store, read the Important Instructions on the app's Play Store page & click the link to download Temasek's Restart Camera app. Do not open CMFix - first install Temasek's app & grant it SuperSU root permission. Then place a shortcut to Camera CMFix on your home screen instead of the link to the 'normal' camera. It's worked for me on all SlimKat & SlimSaber versions & with CM11.
woww thanks you
Is there a way to return to the AOSP recent apps window? The only thing I don't like on this rom is the recent apps window and how it looks and also the fact that there's a gesture instead of a clear recent apps button

Thanks for the support. I already tried this twice though (and yes I followed the instructions to the letter) but I get the same annoying "unfortunately camera has stopped"
popping up when I then start the CMfix app.
I'm just not sure if this is a ROM issue or if this might be due to a conflict between my apps. Maybe I will try a clean wipe, of cache and system, then reboot into ROM
and see if the camera will work or not. This should tell me if it's ROM related or not.
I hate to restore everything afterwards though and to return to the issue for further investigation
I'd be glad to hear if someone else found an alternative solution!
Have you enabled root access? I would re-install the ROM having formatted system & cache & wiped dalvik and only then tried a complete wipe if that didn't work.
Finally got the camera working again

Yes I have, that was not the problem though I finally got it to work again, here's what I did (in case anyone runs into the same issue):
1.) Install CMFix from the Play Store + download & install Temasek Restart Camera (with root permission)
2.) Run camera CMFix --> still got the "can't connect to camera" error message
3.) Reboot to recovery, wiped dalvik, wipe cache partition & wipe data/factory reset
4.) Restored apps & system data via Titanium
5.) Run "Restart Camera" and CMFix again --> This time the camera did work again :good:
6.) Tried other camera apps --> camera is working just fine now --> uninstall Restart Camera & CmFix --> camera is still working
Also one could try installing a different GAPPS build - there is a stable one from mid September and various betas up to a day ago,
maybe that might be another cure (or cause) to fix the camera bug.

Hey! Tried this and the other mentioned stuff several times but still no success... has anyone heard from other ways to get the cam to work? or maybe an alteration of the quoted post?

[Q] Apps take forever to download and install. Any Ideas???

I have owned the Moto G 2014 since January. I like the phone but get very frustrated at how it slows down excessively. I am running Lollipop 5.0.2 which I received OTA bere in the USA. After I downloaded Lollipop, I did a full factory reset on the phone to make sure everything was cleared out. One of the major problems I am having is downloading apps and updating apps from the Play Store. The download time takes WAY longer than on any of my devices that are attached to the same network. Once the app or update downloads, it again take three or four times as long to install as on my other devices (including a Nexus 7 running Lollipop. Any ideas out there. I like the phone but it gets SO LAGGY and SLOW.
Clearing the dalvik cache may help.
Go to Settings > Apps > All > Download Manager > Clear Data and Cache and restart the phone. Then go to Playstore and download the apps.
Lollipop uses ART as compared to Kitkat which uses Dalvik VM. Google for the differences
ART (Ahead of Time) compiles the bytecode before execution as compared to Dalvik (Just In Time) which compiles it during run-time.
So at the time of installation apps take a bit to install as compared to Kitkat.
