System optimization

Artur951

Hello everyone! After you install the latest version 5.2.2, the system continuously displays this message: System optimization in progress. Version 5.1.1 was not like this. What's wrong?

Andybv

Hi.
Same issue for me.
V.0.5.12 installed yesterday

After each restart I have "service optimization in progress, please wait..."
It takes around 15 minutes to finish. Then everything works fine...untill the next reboot and another 15 minutes wait. And so on...

I didn't have this issue with the previous version. Re-installed 3 times..always the same issue.

Yes, I have the same issue.

While issue is solved you can go back to android interface by pressing home button

Stopped downloading apps from the Play market. How can I roll back to previous version? Waiting for a friend kalkov.

Sorry, this is a new feature and isn't quite stable yet. The idea is to tell the user that Android is optimizing system apps in the background (e.g. after the installation of OpenGApps) and the whole system might be slow and not responsive.

Those optimizations are detected automatically during the boot. If you don't like this window, you can click on the bottom and the standard Android navigation will appear - you can simply click on the home button and this window will close.

If it appears again after the reboot, it means there apps are still being optimized.

@Artur951, there is no official support for Google Play Services, but we also didn't introduce anything new to prevent the installation. You can flash the older version with our installer application (use the button "Skip login and use a local image" instead of logging in).

Artur951

Where can I take the image of the previous version? I'll try experimenting. Comrade kalkov, do you speak Russian?

IKS

@Artur951, yes, I do. But it would be great to keep it understandable for non-russians 🙂

I mean, if I write private messages. I understand. Personally, I like your operating system.

Andybv

Hi.
where can I find an older image to use it as a local install?

Andybv

I managed to install v0.5.10
I don't have the "service optimization in progress" message on this version.

But I can not go in the recovery to install gapps. Every time when I try to boot in recovery it blocks on "starting kernel..."
I tried many times...impossible to get to recovery.

Any ideas?

Yes, sure.

Did you use 0.5.10 before and it was working?

Andybv

Yes. I had 0.5.10 before and worked fine.
Yesterday I installed 0.5.12 and had that issue with service optimization.

I got back to 0.5.10 today and the recovery is not working. I don't understand why. It's a fresh installation.

I have same issue in v0.5.13 as well. it continuously popup the message "System optimization ..." after I installed the Google Play Services. It wasn't happening in previous version.

This screen doesn't do anything itself - it only detects system activities. If it pops up after each reboot, there is something going on in the background. Its only purpose is to inform the user about system activities.

As mentioned above, you can simply close it by clicking on the bottom of the screen.

The dialog-box popped causes so much troubles if it is as a unattended operation system. Is it possible to use a toast-show instead of the pop up box?

Can you please describe what kind of troubles it causes? It starts and terminates automatically only if there is corresponding system activity. So if you setup your system and wait for the installation to finish, I don't see how it would affect unattended operation.

Thanks for you response. My system will be used in the vans, without any mouse, keyboard, or touch screen. My app catches the "android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" broadcast and startup automatically. However after my app starts, the "System optimization ..." box popes up and covers my app. So it will be a really bad experience of my customers.

We can introduce an option for turning this feature off. However, I hope you understand that you are fighting the symptoms, but not the cause. A better idea would be to find out what your system is installing during each single boot and fixing it.

Thanks for your reply. The system is working fine until I install the open GApps. The Android system became extreme slow. It even do not have any response to the mouse moving, so I have to use "wave" feature in the recovery mode. After I "wave" the system and doing some init settings, I find the Google Services and Google Store still there and the Android system seems back to normal, except the "System optimization ..." issue.

The hardware I used is Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. The Emteria OS version is v0.5.16. I just install the open GApps (open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180506.zip), nothing else. Could you please give me some advises in my case?

Same problem... After reboot display "System optimization" message and the system is very slow...
Thinking it was my MicroSD that wasn't fast enough I bought a U3, but the problem is the same.
