Problems Switching From Dalvik To ART

[coreyball]

I am having trouble switching. Read articles and it made it seem like it was cake..

I started with 55 apps that needed optimization after the 350 apps updated. I am now down to 25..

Basically I have restarted and shut down my device 10 times and I keep getting error messages. I cannot use my phone all I can do Is restart or power off the machine.

This is one of the messages "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped."

My only option is to press OK and the same message comes back habitually.

ANY HELP!!!???

Unless you are rooted the move from Dalvik to ART is horrid at best. Even after I got it all running sort of I switched back as quick as I could. It's a disaster on the S5 at least for now.

Did you get any of the error messages?

If so how did you get past them?

Not sure why they would offer this option if it is such a disaster..

It must be carrier issue as I posted that except for Polaris Office 5 not working my experience with ART is amazing.

No error messages just took long to optimize.

BTW, I have the Bell G900W8.
