i'm about to flash PA beta7 right now, i've been following the post since beta1 came out, and didn't wan it to flash i don't why, but now i can't resist xD..and if moles says that it is stable, then i don't see any reason not to use PA :)..but my question here is, is there still any fix to apply now on beta seven? like the one that fix the GPS issue? or that problem has been solve? i'm only asking because on the first the part that says "flash fix-if any" link doesn't take anywere, i mean, there's nothing to dowload..so, if there any fix can you tell me where can i find it so i can flash it? thanks! sorry to bother.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
I must be extremely lucky as pa beta7 runs way better than stock 4.2.1 for me, I did have daily reboots on pa kernel but I switched to Franco r342 an everything is perfect now.

No need to flash the GPS fix on beta7.

Thanks Molesarecoming. I had already tried the OP Gapps. But didn't work.

Already found the problem. The Backup & Recovery option wasn't auto checked. After checking it on in the preferences pane it worked again.

Thanks for your reply.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
not "you" as in you caused it yourself, but you as in your end. could be an update, circumstance, occurrence, coincidence. can be a syncing issues, can be pretty much anything.

dont guarantee that to ppl cuz its not true.. i have seen alot of ppl having issues with both stock and custom kernels on 4.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heymikachu:
App sync was worked when I tried aokp nightly(not sure what version is. maybe 1204 or 1205) with gapps 1130 from goo.im. it pops some errors but apps were back include wallpaper.

It's weird I thought 1130gapps(goo.im) can't app sync because it couldn't when I flashed after several deodexed aosp roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] seleu:
by the way, i'm using right now next launcher on the stock rom, and let me tell you, by far is the best launcher i ever used, even if they are the same people of go launcher (and go launcher sucks ¬¬)..i'm gonna try next launcher with PA, and i hope it runs perfect as it does on stock rom! :)

My previous message was skipped, it was just to ask if PA team plans implementing NFC Polling mode (screen off...), as it was a really useful feature.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FaberfoX:
Moles, I'm sorry if my post sounded rude, I was just trying to figure out what else changed in my setup since going from beta 6 to 7, and the only thing I've done was to install swiftkey flow beta. I'm almost sure in my case swiftkey flow was the problem. It's been almost 12 hours since I disabled it and I've had no more lag/low memory issues. I'm on stock kernel, never flashed a different one.

I believe you when you say there were no low-level changes going from 6 to 7, it just happened that swiftkey was released just around that time and I'm sure I wasn't the only one who rushed to install it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBlackbriar:
So you disabled SwiftKey Flow and that fixed the problem for you on Beta7? Interesting. I was having many of the same issues with Beta7 (and Swiftkey Flow), like awful lag, apps redrawing every time I switched to them (didn't check RAM, but that seems to be a clear indication of a memory leak), and "Android System" using up >50% of my battery because of a "suspend_backoff" wakelock. This morning, I flashed the DEC07-dev-build and all these issues are gone, with SwiftKey Flow still enabled. So I'm not really sure if it is related to SK Flow at all (at least in my case).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gautam_nexus:
Looks super cool... Is it coming in beta 8...or 3.0
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DaD92:
Hi, I used to have lag issue since B7.

I just desable lockscreen widget and new lockscreen icones and no more lag for me. ADW don't refresh every 20 sec...

Moles, do you think there is something wrong with new widget features, or is it just a coincidence?

Edit : hybrid par-apps orientation seams really really kool stuff!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghojezz:
little OT

nexus and vaio user yeah!

and i'm wondering why germany uses QWERTZ keyboard instead of QWERTY? :D

and how do you feel when you're typing with QWERTY keyboard? :D

betaSEVEN with Franco r342 are simply amazing :)

long battery life and no SoD or reboots :)

Finally found great colors combination for my commonly used apps

whatsapp 245dpi Navbar color #E6DFD5 Navbutton Black Status Bar #686C70

Path 240dpi Navbar Color #F2EEE8 Navbutton Black Status Bar #ED3423
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monotoonn:
this should be the Stock ROM on Android devices. They keep implementing the most awesome options!

Nothing but respect!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stereoprologic:
Because Z is a more commonly used letter than Y in the German language.

It feels quite awkward using the QWERTY layout for me, mainly because I use QWERTZ everyday on my computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cocchiararo:
I believe i had one "random" reboot after first boot of b6 and again on b7.

Memory has been the same on all versions of pa 2.99+

Its funny how the numbers show more or less the same that the CM based PA did, but it does not get sluggish or needs rebooting sD

ADW is not redrawing like some people say.

Maybe he was harsh, but i don't see any of those issues either.

I have no issues with SKF, except that the "flow" trace thats normally multi color turns to light blue randomly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Joplisan:
I had problems with System UI crashing in b6 and home screen "reloading" everything when exiting an app in b7. I had lots of slight lag, but no random reboots. I was using a bit of Trinity, more of Franco and a lot of Leankernel. But since I've read moles post, I thought "okay, this guy must know what he's talking about" - I tried stock kernel, been testing it for 2 hours now, no UI crashes, no home screen reloading, no lag whatsoever. It feels like a different phone. I thought all that problems were happening because of "beta" state so I didn't mind. I don't know for you, but it worked for me. It runs flawlessly now! Thank you!

Moles, you really should get away from Goo.im that host is the most unreliable service I've ever seen. I can offer up an FTP if need be...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D4rKn3sSyS:
These "memory leak" bug reports are really fun, specially when yesterday, my friend with an iPhone (let's not lie, the toy is pretty smooth), told me my phone was even smoother than his. Now, no, they're not really lockscreen targets, definitively. I tested that intensively, and I use them daily. What can it be?, I have really no idea, but it can be from a rogue app to a really famous app wich everyone uses. Please try a completly clean PA b7 installation, without doing ANYTHING else, I mean, only gapps, no titanium, dont install any app from market / storage, and try it for a couple of hours. If bug continues and you have not installed a single app or touched any system settings, I will take this serious and start to debug the issue. But for now is all uncertain, because my phone is really smoother than ever. Remind we also use the roms we make, if there were a bug like this, we would notice instantly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gautam_nexus:
This might be the Google currents app.. people over at nexus 7 forum reported that it is causing some lag..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mastrone:
I'm about to switch to PA....Your rom is so teasing! Only a question that didn't get an answer amoun 2k pages (to my eyes of course): is there any dark/inverted colour gapps package around? I got some but they're 4.1 ones. No good....

Don't know if it already came up. But since beta one i have this bug.

I cant see the buttons for next. I can easily be changed by rotating the phone. Is it normal?

It comes up than i add a certificate and have to add a lock pattern.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stereoprologic:
Maybe because the german text is too long for the buttons to display correctly, try to do whatever you're doing with system language set to english and see if the problem persists.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalavere:
I am getting crazy battery drain on both my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 using PA, for the last 3-4 updates on the N7, I've just switched to PA on the Galaxy and it drains 10% an hour doing nothing. Better Battery Stats tells me I am having Suspend-Backoff wake locks which can be caused by Chrome, I've uninstalled it and I'm still getting 10% drain per hour even in flightmode.

Any ideas, guys?

same problem for me, so I just uninstalled swiftkey flow and everything seems to work as well as before..

I do not understand how a keyboard will affect the reloading of home screen.

Meanwhile, I continue to test,,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
apps in android work very different from other os paradigms like windows. basically they communicate with each other, exchange resources or tasks. the launcher especially will try to communicate with each and every app because it needs resources (icons) and can even host apps and run them on the homescreen (widgets). no idea what this and that app does but it better be lean or its leaks will affect other parts of the system.

I reverted back to beta 6 to test if the problem is caused by swiftkey flow..So far my device been running for 10+ hours and have 300 free ram..so I might do clean install on beta 8. Dirty flashing to beta 7 seems to give me problems.

The latest version (beta 7) has lag after a while use. It is a matter of free RAM? Too bad because the version 6 was perfect and very fast

I thought it was going to turn to the orientation we set on the Hybrid engine automatically every time we opened the app? You know, without having to turn your phone sideways?

I'll try a clean install before deciding to disable Current altogether..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mao04:
Did a search for Zoopla widget and only find a real estate app. Link?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Google current is not the issue, although people want to believe that. I have seen too many people using maguro and toro versions of Beta 7 with completely different phone settings, kernels etc for it to be anything causing the memory leak besides Beta 7. Another reason I believe this is because the people using Beta 6 with the exact same settings and apps report no issues, same goes for the people using the newest Dev Beta. So how is it possible that people from multiple versions of the Galaxy Nexus using completely different settings, completely different kernels (some using the stock kernel that everyone says works perfect) and completely different apps (I don't have or use swiftkey, a lot of people with the issue don't use currents or even have it installed and everyone has been using different launchers) all have the exact same symptoms, i.e. lagging apps, freezing apps, lagging keyboard and random reboots? This has been pointed out over in the Verizon Galaxy Nexus PA thread as well, a lot of people on that thread don't even come to this one, yet they are reporting the same things so it cannot be coincidence.

I love this rom and I am just rebooting every so often until Beta 8 becomes available, I am in no way trying to call anyone a liar or say they don't know what they are talking about but seriously, the memory leak is coming from Beta 7 of Paranoidandroid, nothing else. That Beta is the issue, not the rom itself, just that particular beta.

Oh well, it's a beta, **** happens, we all flash it knowing very well it's a beta so we all expect bugs. I only point out what I can attest for myself and compare with enough people seeing the same problems that it should be considered a bug. As all bugs, this will be or already is fixed for the next beta. Let's all hold out and see how Beta 8 is like on our phones and then go from there. :)

Bottom line, I love PA and am not going to use another rom, There is not a rom on this site that has the amount of options, customizations, speeds and battery life to compare even remotely to Paranoidandroid!!!! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DoesntPostAThing:
He made a typo, it's Zooper Widget.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r29:
that because its called zooper widget lol =) awesome app. minimalistic .. only updates when screen is on..does not constantly update when device is sleeping.

as for swiftkey flow so weird that the beta 6 shows the full trail while beta 7 it does not work correctly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBlackbriar:
Interestingly, the trail is multicolored again in the DEC07 dev version. There just seems to be something wrong with beta7.

Come to think of it: Which beta7-version are you using? There were two or three versions. Dark pulled the first and replaced it with another one after a couple of minutes, fixing some bugs. Then, the next day, goo told me there was an update, also called beta7 (pa_maguro-2.99.7-06DEC2012-230351). This was the one I had those problems with. Maybe it's really just that particular build.

I was running the pulled build. Didnt really feel like flashing the rom again. So the multi-colour line was not an issue for me. The only problem I had on beta 7 was the performance problem after 8+ hours of on time. Im not 100% what is causing that since beta 6 with flow is working perfectly fine. Just going to wait for beta 8 and do a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cocchiararo:
My only "issue" was that I rapidly got down to 100 free mb.

I had no lag or performance issues.

The one you posted seems to give me more (its staying around 170 to 200), but I haven't tested it long enough.

Facebook app seems to hang on a white screen tho :p

Edit:

Wiping Facebook data made it work again, but going to Facebook notifications (world icon) hanged it again.

Gmail goes back to desktop when I go to an email.

I did restore pa settings from a backup from beta6 or beta7 tho

hey boys and girls

I want to say that maybe i was a bit rude this afternoon so if i offended someone me scuzi! :)

but for what i can tell is that the swiftkey flow beta is causing problems on beta7 ? and i went back to beta6 with SKF installed and no problem, the colered trail stays normal with B6 but with B7 the trail is faded..

so can anyone who had the lag problems confirm that they had the SKF beta installed on B7?

swiftkey was not a problem in beta 7 .. I had uninstall it and used the swiftkey 3 and there was still a problem with lag.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I've only noticed my ram go under 100mb and cause lagging to the point of reboot a few times and it usually takes in excess of 5 to 7hrs or more. I think part of it is because I am constantly flashing things or updating things so I reboot from that before my device has a chance to get that low. Either way, I'm fine with the bug until we see Beta 8. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anthonyp326:
Has anyone gone back to b6? With success around memory leak and lag?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Lots of people have already expressed that when they went back to Beta 6 the leak was gone, others pointed out the same result when updating to the newest maguro developer beta (although the latter apparently has quite a few bugs and certain apps do not run properly, hence why it's not an official beta release), so I would say yes, it removes the issue. I personally can deal with it because these Betas release so fast it won't be long until we have a Beta 8 to play with. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robertsu:
I`m still on beta 5 and have no issue at all, using Franco latest nightly kernel, but default kernel work perfect too. Only problem i seen is that (now outdated) Better Keyboard (Gingerber edition) eating some letters and having lag, original android keyboard have maybe slightly lag but than i installed better Keyboard for OLD Froyo and that keyboard is super fast without any lag...

I think that`s not a problem with rom since i already try many roms and even on 4.1.2 i have same issues with eating letters and lag when using better keyboard...

Rest work superb, no single reboot or lag since beta 5 is released. 150 apps instaleld but most are disabled from boot start... ~300 Ram free after boot and system keeping at least 200 MB free all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r29:
