This isn't a mirror, it's the actual goo.im download which is quoting upwards of 8 hours til completion. It's not my connection, PA Gapps downloaded in less than 2 minutes from goo.im. Thanks all the same, I guess... I'll wait it out. Sad that reposts and users of this ROM have caused support to deteriorate to the point where I get linked the download in the original post when asking for a mirror.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pierceye:
I think it boils down to personal preference regarding Pie. Aesthetics or convenience. I'm with you as far as using Pie goes. For my preferences it is too much of a compromise. That being said, I definitely appreciate the fact that we have a choice in the matter. If we like it, we can turn it on and run with it. If we don't, nothing says we have to. I'm missing AOSPA but for some reason my phone hasn't been playing nice. Can't wait for Halo to exit Alpha testing and I'll give it another shot.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moccor:
So I love the DPI system of this ROM and the speed. I do miss a few things that many ROM's have, but maybe there are other ways to obtain them or I just don't know how to obtain it. First being the fast-charge, but I think I might be able to enable that with a script and Tasker. Second is the on-screen navigation buttons, I have no idea how to configure them or if it is possible. After using the DROID X for about 2 years, I kinda like the locations of the physical buttons and preferred to change my on-screen nav buttons to the same locations. Third, the quick toggles seem limited to 3 columns. Is there a file I can modify to have it use 4 columns? And lastly, having the date on the notification bar.

These are in no way requests, so please don't take them as that. I am just asking if there are alternative ways to get these features or enable them. I respect the devs decision on what they do or don't add into their ROM. I do not mind buying apps either, I have Tasker which I hope might remedy the fast-charge, since that's the biggest deal, I hate the noisy Samsung AC adapter and prefer to charge with my PC. Any help is appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] japaneezy:
FWIW, I control fast-charge via Franco's app. You don't have to have his kernel - if your current kernel supports FC, it will show it in the settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moccor:
Good to know. So if I flash a fast-charge enabled kernal, do you know if it will just show up in the quick-toggle area? I've seen that setting in the Trickster mod settings, but it wanted to enable fast-charge from boot. Which is kind of bad, if something were to happen and I needed to connect to ADB or the SD, I think that would be impossible unless disabling it from how I enabled it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geronimogman:
is anyone else experiencing problems with CLOCK? everytime i restart my phone it says that clock has force closed, i cant even set alarm clocks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
For the Navigation buttons, go to Settings->Toolbars->Navigation controls. Hit the Lock icon to unlock them. You can then reassign the buttons to your liking and then hit lock again to save. Fast-charge toggle and changing the number of rows for Quick Toggles I'm not sure of, but I don't think they can be done without a mod of some sort.

Also, I love this ROM and I will likely be sticking with it for the long haul, but it does stick pretty close to stock. If you want something with more changes from AOKP and CM in addition to features pulled from PA, there are hybrid ROMs like JellyBeer, the Orca Project, Mianogen P.A.C., and others. However, since they are not official PA, new features may not become available for a while and there may be compatibility issues between tweaks from the different sources.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iomthd:
At times I connect and disconnect a download and get much faster speeds from goo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moccor:
Wow I completely overlooked that Navigation bar settings, I was tired when messing with this ROM for the 2nd time, thanks for pointing that out. And yeah I hope its as easy as editing a number, from like 3-to-4, but I am no developer haha. Well even 3 columns is good, I just like to be able to see all the toggles without scrolling down. And yeah I tried many ROMs, my preference was MIUI on GB, then it was AOKP when ICS and JB came. There is no need for MIUI anymore, no offense to the developers. Most ROMs use CM as a base and using MIUI just jumbles the same settings around, so when someone needs help with a new phone, you forget where things are. Then I was using the Sorcery ROM, but it felt sluggish at times and the battery life didn't seem so great. Even on the lowest brightness, my screen can easily use 50% of my battery according to the battery stats. Is this normal? I feel like my battery might be bad, I bought this phone from Swappa. But I have 3 other batteries, one of which is a fresh extended Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikesuds:
I just flashed this Paranoid Android rom, using PA for the very first time. I have long used AOKP but I am loving the PIE and Halo features so I wanted to try them out.

I am currently at work and am seeing drastically worse LTE signal. Normally I get 3-4 bars, and I am now lucky to have 1. It keeps reverting back to 3g. I have not changed the kernel or radios yet. I had the newest radios installed with AOKP prior to flashing this. Anyone have any ideas? I love the customization here, but I don't think I can deal with the signal issues I am seeing...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
On my old EVO MIUI was my ROM of choice. I used it for a while when I got my GNEX, but stability was an issue and I wanted to move to Jelly Bean (MIUI was still 4.0 at the time) so I switched to Paranoid Android and got hooked. Per-app DPI, Per-App colors and then PIE and now Halo are great. My wife was still on MIUI and the stability kept getting worse and the support for the Verizon GNEX at MIUI.US basically dropped. I switched her to CM 10.1 because I knew CM was known for rock-solid stability but now she misses MIUI's theming engine. Been keeping an eye on Avatar ROM, since it is taking the MIUI themability and putting it on top of a CM 10.1 base.

Anyway, for your battery woes, unfortunately that is pretty normal. The screen is a power-sucking monster. I get maybe an hour or so of screen time with 10 hours or less off of the charger and I am hunting for a power outlet. AK Kernel seems to be improving this a bit for me, and using Nephilim's settings on AK improves the battery life for a lot of folks. Unfortunately for me, when I start undervolting I start getting reboots and horrible lag. It's worth a try though, just make sure not to enable it on boot until you've tested the settings for at least a few days of usage. Also, if you do set on boot, set a good wait time of at least 30 seconds to give you a chance to stop it right after boot if you are having issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andruoide:
Halo 5 with AK kernel SK 246 great combo!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itslels:
alpha 5 is running great for me. I don't know why, but this build seems to be running the best out of any PA build I have ran. halo with pie can't be beat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
This kernel makes the colors pop out more. I can dig it. Wish AOSPA had "Performance" options.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mursepaolo:
I've still yet to find the magic combo. At the moment my phone still slows and the battery is terrible. Alpha 5 with AK 245
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I am about to try ak 246 , because stock and Rubik sucked battery quickly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andruoide:
Yes try 246 working very good for me !! Good battery life
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I gave up on halo. No matter what I do halo keeps disappearing on me. I enable it by going into stock ui again but I soon as I get a notification , halo is gone. Lame
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andruoide:
Halo 5 working perfect no issues ,using AK Kernel SK 246 .. I don't know why people having problems with HALO ...Do a clean wipe !!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schnob:
Mine was doing that, so I deleted the clock .apk and installed another one, now it's fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I did but my every time I reboot my phone, halo breaks forever
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I've dirty flashed every build since Beta 2.99 and have no issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andruoide:
You did a clean flash ? ..because the same happened to me !!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I did a clean flash right now again. But my launcher took like 3 minutes to show up. I might have either a bad download of a ROM or gapps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andruoide:
Which gapps are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbean2006:
I had the same problem... After a clean flash don't mess with anything just let the phone complete its boot then reboot once more then you should be good to go... As for the halo look in the settings under tool bar and make sure it's not set to auto hide
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
My issue was that I had window animations off on developers options . I set them all three to. 5x and reboot my phone, after that hello is working just fine. Weird **** I know

---------- Post added at 12:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 AM ----------

Latest one. I just fixed my issue ↓
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbean2006:
Glad to hear that everything is working... :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Papasmurf8314:
I am starting to have random reboots. And sometimes when I manually reboot, it reboots again in a "dirty" reboot fashion. Running the 5/14 build with ak246 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
I haven't been in a position to troubleshoot it but I think the issue is from ak246. Same thing happened to me on 5/14 and on a different rom using the same kernel. Too much of coincidence to think it is rom-related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Papasmurf8314:
Well ak248 is out. Maybe I will see if it works. If not I'm going back to 242.it was more stable for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonb81:
I know that this issue doesn't specifically have to do with Paranoid, but I was hoping maybe someone else has some insight.

I was on Slimrom, and I updated the ROM. From there, every time I opened the camera I got a Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped responding error message. Opening gallery itself works fine. I tried other camera apps on the market as well, such as JB Camera +. Same issue.

I tried a few things, and eventually switched to PA after a full factory reset and am still getting the error when trying to access the camera.

I've tried fixing permissions, I've cleared data on Gallery. I've tried extracting the Gallery app from the PA google apps and setting the permissions correctly and I am still getting the error. I tried downloading a Camera 4.2 zip file and installing it through TWRP and fixing permissions. I am kind of at my wits end trying to fix this. I know it's not an issue specifically with the ROM because I had it on Slim. Any suggestions?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chasmanian:
Try a few different kernels, maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonb81:
Yeah, I'm going to wind up having to try another kernel, but I was hoping for another option if possible. I think it has to do with gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ithamatam:
same here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chasmanian:
If you've been using the same gapps for each ROM, then there's a good possibility that's the problem. It's less likely to be kernel unless you've also been using the same one of those each time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonb81:
Yeah, I didn't flash Gapps when I dirty flashed the Slim update, and that's when the problem started. Should I maybe go back to the latest Slim and flash the Slim Gapps and then come back to PA and flash the PA Gapps? Does that seems worth a shot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chasmanian:
I think it's more worth your efforts to either go back to a working nandroid backup or flash the original slim and slim gapps and start over from there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonb81:
Fair enough... I appreciate the responses and assistance. I can't try these things today but I will update if anything gets fixed or if I'm still having trouble. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] treubber:
Probably more of a gapps question, but I managed to install the new Hangout that replaces Talk. However, I'm getting two sets of notifications, one for Talk and one for Hangouts. Just curious if anyone else is having the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
Delete /system/app/Talk.apk & it'll stop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpalatsi:
Anyone else getting a lot of force closes on Google Play Music (latest build)?

Running PA (May 14th 2013 version)

AK Kernel 246

PS gapps Apr 13th? (latest one)

It happens a lot! Even with a factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Pretty sure there are newer gapps than that. I think I am running 4/27.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] roidsmith:
How did you install it? It says its already installed, but its not (our gapps package is probably the reason).

Edit: I wanted to quote the whole thing lol. I'm debating on renaming talk.apk to talk.bak and see if that works
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enigmaisdead:
If you rename or delete talk.apk, it will change Hangouts from Installed to Install, thus allowing you to add it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
Install what? Hangout? I downloaded it from the interwebz & put it into the gapps package.

If you delete it (Talk.apk) you can still download it from the store OR pull it out of the gapps package you're using.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpalatsi:
Yeah, that's what it is... I was just guesstimating hence the "?"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Have you done the typical fixes. Uninstall/install clear app cache and data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Can anyone tell me why my keyboard pops up then quickly goes away when trying to enter text in any Web browser? It's probably the most annoying thing I've ever come across.

I'm almost to the point of breaking my phone.

I just noticed your signature. Project Elite is alive and well on the Gnex. It was definitely the best custom ROM on the Droid Milestone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxxdc5:
I'm going to kick myself if this was mentioned and I just skimmed past it...

But does anyone know why there is no NFC option in settings and I can't seem to turn it on?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmonzel:
Settings > under "Wireless and Networks" hit More > NFC
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxxdc5:
That's what I thought, but I don't have that option -___-

Do you think switching batteries has anything to do with it? Sometimes I switch between batteries. They are all OEM NFC batteries though, and I've never seen this problem before. :(

BTW I'm on the newest Alpha update
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trevormalachi:
I saw they had it but I love my PA. was an awesome ROM for sure on milestone

Sometimes the keyboard won't even show up. I've tried multiple browsers including the default browser and have tried a few different keyboard apps and they all do the same.

Anyone else experience this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShannonPricePhoto:
I tried the last two... I couldnt take the extreme short batt life. lost 25% over night where 3-5% is normal... goto work at 9am, dead by noon. without really using it.

then had nothing but troubles with BT.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I used to have poor battery performance with pa using Rubik ak kernel with dirtied flash. I did a clean flash , and switched to ak 246 and set my screen color profile = anarkia, and my battery improved a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Papasmurf8314:
I assume that GAPPS will need to be updated to reflect the new hangout app right? Can't just update from Play
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc11284:
From the Play Store description of Hangouts:

NOTE: If you aren't yet able to install Hangouts on your phone or tablet, or the Play Store "Open" button takes you to the old Talk app, hang tight, we are rolling out Hangouts to everyone over the course of several days. Rest assured Hangouts will be available soon for all Android 2.3+ devices, tablets included!

I was just prompted to update my Talk app last night, so it is rolling out to people.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Papasmurf8314:
I wasn't sure if it needed to be adjusted in anyway since there is a different PA-Gapps. Didn't want to assume. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikesuds:
Sorry to post again, but nobody replied yesterday... nobody else is having issues with their signal? I did a second wipe and clean install of this rom, flashed ak rubik, the phone is working GREAT... but my 4g signal is horrible at work now (1 bar or reverts back to 3g), when before on AOKP I had 3-4 bars regularly... I double checked my radios, they are the latest JBQ39. Anybody have any ideas? thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dverson:
You can also delete the Talk app via Root Explorer or another file manager in /system/app/ and then install Hangouts from the Play Store. Just did that and it worked for me :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 808phoneaddict:
Yeah I've noticed weaker signal on this rom than on other roms... Strange tho, I though the radios/signal was independent of the rom...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikesuds:
Yeah I mean I am almost positive they are SUPPOSED to be independent and the rom itself shouldn't affect it, but then again I am sort of just guessing. But I cant figure out what the issue is and it's making me wonder if I should switch back to AOKP. I dont want to, I am loving this rom aside from the signal issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Something is causing your signal issue but it is definitely not the rom, that is impossible. The rom does not have anything to do with anything remotely relating to your radios. It's possible it may be a kernel issue, otherwise you have a renegade app or something along those lines. I have absolutely perfect reception not only with LTE but with WiFi as well. Even when outside of the LTE area my 3G is still full bars 90% of the time. I hope you guys are experiencing weak signals and not just claiming they are weak because of the readings in "about phone" and on your statusbar because those can easily be inaccurate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Really? No one will acknowledge this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
No, mine works just fine everywhere
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
What could it be? It seems that every browser is extremely temperamental and frustrating. It will randomly crash without a force close message, links won't click multiple times, maybe it's my phone? Seems to happen a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scope666:
I have the exact same problem. The circle is there but no notifications show up in it anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
Are you on fresh install or dirty flash
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
When I have PIE activated sometimes it doesn't trigger and changes orientation automatically from bottom to right,left, or top. Anyone else have this issue?

Also, is there a way to activate Halo on full screen by swiping down from the top? That would be more awesome than disabling PIE then activating from the pull down notification.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gnexdude:
This ^^^ too... I went ahead and made a back up and when I restored back to it, circle is there but empty.. lonely :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scope666:
I wonder if there's some way to get Halo to start picking up notifications again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
I think once you slide it up to the X you would have to reactivate it on the pull down notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scope666:
Yeah, I know how to do that ... the circle IS on the home screen, it's just not picking up any notifications (it's always empty even when notifications are pending)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Have you downloaded halo app from market. It allows you to assign which notifications you want in halo. I dirty flashed and got the app. Haven't had any problems after.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scope666:
Yeah, I have it installed and have added Gmail, SMS, etc to it ... still no dice. The "halo" circle stays empty. It did work when I first loaded the rom, but since rebooting it doesn't work anymore (like others have mentioned in this thread)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Hmmm..... Weird. Hopefully there will be some type oh update to beta soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
New update to HALO)))

Dammit, I thought you meant a new alpha/beta update to PA, :(

New HALO))) Update looks nicer though, no actual difference in how it works that I've noticed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
Is there a reason why PIE gravity keeps changing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zittoro:
A bit of ui change and it "works on boot"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
Do you have window animations set to on in dev. Options?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parkson:
You're probably accidentally or unknowingly dragging it to the "snap points" on edges of screen. It is possible to move pie around without going into settings menu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
That's what it was. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] havi007:
what are some really good kernels that makes this buttery smooth?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
Latest Franco kernel #378 works good for me.

The ak248 made the colors look good but I got frequent crashes. Iron Man 3 wouldn't load either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ramos247:
I can't get halo))), says my device is incompatible

All of a sudden I have same issue. Its suppose to be an update.

Got my update to hangouts but it says I need to update play services. When I try to update it says device incompatible. Any fix for this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scope666:
So I finally figured it out ... Halo only works (for me at least) if I'm in "Phone Mode" ... Tablet or Phablet breaks Halo ... you'll still see the circle but won't get notifications in it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itslels:
Halo only working in phone node has been mentioned on here quite a few tines and on PA's g+ page.

New to the ROM and didn't see that posted... guess I didn't go far enough back into the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
Works great in tablet and phablet for me with the halo app installed. I have not tried without the app on alpha5 for fear of breaking it.

You can do that or get the auto flasher in the play store.

Me too. Just can't update play services for hangouts.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned/brought up before, but Tasker always crashes when using HALO. If you go to that tasker notification then it'll kill it/crash it evertime. Same thing happens if you use HALO))) to open a pinned Tasker App.
