Mine seems to be worse since flashing yesterday, too. Battery screen in settings shows 43% Maps, gotta figure out what i accessing Maps so much. I did turn off my "when turn on Maps turn on GPS" Tasker profile, so now at least GPS will stay off for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I see a fair amount of usage from Maps as well, but it generally only amounts to 10% or so, not anywhere near as high as you are seeing.

Should flashing the updated ROM replace the kernel? I had flashed AK purity a while back, but have since updated at least twice without flashing any kernel and now I notice under Kernel Version it says:

3.0.68

anarky@kernel #1

Does this rom come with an AK kernel or am I still running the kernel I flashed at least two updates ago?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] treubber:
I believe it comes with its own kernel. Let one of the more senior devs confirm, but that's been my experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] terminal13:
No you have to flash ak kernels. I'm running ak skull 200 with pa. Gotta flash em.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
My phone says it's running an AK kernel though, and I definitely have not done so over the past couple of updates. So I'm wondering if the rom includes an ak kernel, the one I flashed is not getting replaced, or there is something wrong in the settings screen.

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

Since disabling the Tasker profile, GPS is no longer running constantly and maps is down to 20% and seems to continue to fall. Not sure why that profile was causing issues, but I can manually turn on GPS when I need it if it means my phone won't die in just a few hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] terminal13:
Most likely a slightly older very stable version. Not an experimental like diamond or skl. Also there's the ak Rubik. Which is a stable current branch. You should take this to the ak tuna thread or request to join the ak off topic on google+:):beer:

Thanks for the info! I decided to give the experimental ak kernels a try for a while. Running ak skl and liking it so far!

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

I figured out what was causing it. Somehow the location setting in Google Maps was set to automatically report my location. With that and my Tasker profile that enables GPS when Maps is launched, Maps kept turning the GPS on and off and was draining my battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] terminal13:
Ya it works great with this rom. Anew version is getting ready to drop soon.

I seem to be having an issue when making a call.

I can dial out or choose a contact, but when it dials, the screen goes black. I cant get it back easily. The only way I can get it back is to rapidly press the power button, but thats iffy anyway.

Same thing when I have an incoming call.

You can imagine the problem when i need to get into voicemail and cant dial my pin. As soon as I dial, its like the phone thinks its next to my head. Once the call is over, it goes back to being viewable

I had this problem. Flashed tiny kernel and haven't had it since. I also stopped using a screen off profile in setcpu though.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonash:
i havent gone that far into kernel settings. Actually, my phone seems to only like lean kernel.... dont ask why, but it seems to freeze with every other kernel i have tried.

Anyway, i rolled back to a nandroid of the previous version and it still happened.

Reinstalled my current backup and cleared the data for the phone app.

Did not fix it.

Went back into recovery, factory reset, and tested. It worked!

Went back into recovery, wiped cache/dalvik and reinstalled the nandroid. Broke again.

Went back and wiped cache/dalvik and dirty flashed the stock rom over it.

Reinstalled gapps as well (had to do it)

Proximity sensor seems to work now. Weird. Something must have been stuck in the memory or something since the reinstall of an old nandroid didnt fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svtfmook:
couple problems i'm experiencing with 4.15

pressing back sometimes takes me back to the stock launcher (using nova as default).

home button pulls up the default menu for launchers, even though i always choose nova (always)

my screen looks streaky now, never noticed on previous roms (could be my screen going bad though).

my clock keeps going back to blue, even though i have white set for base and per app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
Did you dirty flash over another rom? Those are strange problems that I have never heard of. You could freeze the stock launcher with TiBu? You can also try another kernel that will let you set screen colors and see if that fixes the streakiness. I recommend ak with neph's colors. Or just try clean flashing fairct's nightly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svtfmook:
fresh install

tried tiny, didn't help with the streaky colors

installed hd revolution, no streaky screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] claytonjn:
Ever since Android started encrypting purchased apps with JB it's caused nothing but problems for me when trying to select default apps. Anything I've purchased that I select as a default app will be forgotten upon reboot. What I've been doing is using Titanium to backup, uninstall, then restore the app. This moves it from the encrypted mnt/asec location to data/apps like regular apps. I've done this with all of my paid apps on both my tablet and phone (other than one app for which this breaks the license) and it has fixed all issues with remembering defaults. I would try that with your launcher.

As far as the streaky screen, it's a known issue with the GNex that it gets screen banding. It's a hardware issue, not ROM related.

And the clock thing is definitely something in per-app settings or default or something overlooked. For what apps does it change, and does it ever change back?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svtfmook:
the clock color would change for all apps.

the color streaks isn't banding, i switched to hd revolution rom, and the streaking isn't gone, but it is much improved. i would have the streaking on reds and greens, now i just have it slightly on reds.

the default was only for nova prime, which is a paid app so i will try the tibu trick.

Is there any way at all to change carrier text in the latest version? None of the usual methods seem to work. i.e. eri.xml or Root Tools.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enigmaisdead:
Am I the only one who has images turn out blurry when sent via MMS?

Some research suggests it's a compression bug, but most sources state that it's been taken care of in most custom ROMs. Is PA not one of those ROMs or is my phone just being stupid?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
Up until yesterday I was running the 3/25 build of PA and the 3/8 PA GAPPS. I had a problem with pictures sent and received through MMS being dramatically downsized to really terrible quality (with the default Messaging app).

Yesterday I flashed the latest builds of both PA and GAPPS (4/15 and 4/10, respectively). The latest version seems to have fixed the problem with pictures being downsized in the default Messaging app. However, I no longer see emoji support in the Messaging app. The option to enable it is not in the settings.

Anyone else not experiencing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
That's because PA switched to the AOSP messaging app. On the 16th, the MMS.apk from CM was added to replace the stock AOSP, so any build after that would have emoji support again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enigmaisdead:
Looks like it's time to flash the update then. I was going to anyway, but now I'm going to do it now. :p Thanks.

EDIT: Well it looks like that fixed the compression issue, but now there's no pull-down on texts in the notification area. I assume that was a CM feature. Oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
Did you flash the 4/10 PA-GAPPS that's linked in the first post of this thread? Apparently, there's a 4/16 and a 4/21 if you go directly to the goo site (devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps/). I just downloaded the latest (4/21), but haven't flashed it yet. I'm worried that it will bring back emoji, but screw up the image compression again. The AOSP messaging app that's in teh 4/10 PA-GAPPS only downsizes MMS pictures to 1440 x 1920 pixels (2.8MP). The older version resized them to a crappy 640 x 480 pixels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
Well, I just flashed the 4/21 build of PA-GAPPS, and I see no difference from the 4/10 build. Images are still being compressed to the larger size (which is good), but I still see no emoji support. Was it added only to the 4/16 build (which I skipped), then removed for the 4/21 build?

Did you mean that the MMS.apk from CM was added to the PA ROM, not the PA-GAPPS?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
That is what I meant, added to the ROM. I don't think it made it into this build either, because it was built prior to 4/16.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
Yes. I flashed the latest PA (3.15 4/15 build) just a couple of days ago and I've noticed bad battery drain. I've tried AK skull .207, as well as the stable AK builds of rubik (16 and 24). All giving bad drain. I realize that PA already comes with an AK kernel, so I may try re-flashing the ROM to go back to that kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Check your battery stats and make sure Maps isn't using a ton. Turns out I had some settings enabled somehow in Maps that was causing it to run nearly constantly in the background. I've never set anything there, so it must have been either default from the PA GAPPS or Google's defaults.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
The last time I checked my battery usage it did show Maps running away with 43%, so I turned off location reporting. However, when I checked battery usage dozens of times before that today and yesterday, Maps wasn't using much power. Also, I've had location reporting enabled with all previous versions of PA and AK kernels, and I've never had a problem with Maps draining battery so much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Location History I think was doing it more than Location Reporting for me. And I had never had the issue before, either, so it must have happened with an update to either PA itself or the PA GAPPS.

Is anybody having major lag when trying to turn the screen on? Also major lag in the accelerometer ? When the phone rings screen doesn't turn on? 4/15 build 3/8 gapps...I have wiped it clean and installed a fresh rom and still experience the problem...just curious if anyone experienced this, not *****ing at all I love the rom to death !

I have the same problem with the clock resetting to blue. It happens on reboot and on systemui restart. I open my messaging app and it resets it to red until I reboot. Only seems to affect the clock. Signal bars and battery stay red all the time.

I do have small am/pm enabled if that makes a difference.

Stock kernel and CPU Frequency Control is set min 350000 max 1200000 and max screen off is 350000 i can't find min screen off... i use trickster mod
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrillMouster:
Yeah, PA's stock kernel doesn't have some options, like min screen off, that other AK kernels do. Try increasing the max screen off frequency by one or two steps.

Automatic Brightness

So I started using automatic brightness since I can barely see my phone when Im outside.

Unfortunately, the low to midrange lux setting are too low for indoors and I would like to increase them.

When going into brightness > automatic brightness >adjust

I am unable to change any settings. It will not let me scroll.

If I hold down an option, I can manually enter in a lux #, but it will not save.

Is this option just not working right now?

Or is it a kernel thing? (Im using lean kernel)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ramos247:
if you go to display then brightness there is option there to make adjustments
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kdo23:
I would assume because there is no tablet version, as most don't have service especially voice/sms. Basically there is no dual panel layout stored in the app.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cambunch:
It is kind of hard to adjust, you can only set a level no less then the previous one and no more than the next one. So, ideally, you would need to start at the bottom setting and tweak backwards to make it easiest.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonash:
i kinda noticed that. Very annoying.

I killed it by removing a bunch lol. Got stuck in a bootloop for whatever reason.

But I tried the increase from bottom to top and it didnt seem to be saving the settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scoobaspeaz:
Just some feedback and please do not take this as some attempt to troll. First off this ROM is very nice aesthetically and has a lot of functionality. Very beautiful rom and seems a lot of heart and soul has went into this.

While I am happy with CM 10.1 I was really excited to try PA due to the new features being added to it and upcoming ones announced on G+. I flashed the rom last night and after about a half hour usage it locked up on me. I had to pull the battery to get it to come back. It locked up when I was in the system menu navigating around between the PA specific settings. Sorry I cannot remember the exact submenu i was looking at the time it happened. I had to restore back to CM and decided to wait till the next build to try it out again.

The second thing i noticed was it said T 64 CMDA on the pull down menu. I know I could edit a few files and fix this, but I am wondering why such a beautiful rom that seems to take great time to detail everything, has not fixed this yet? This is something that should, in my opinion, be fixed by the ROM dev at this point.

Since sometimes my opinion is wrong :) I figured I would ask why this has not been fixed yet. Is there a reason or is it planned in a future update? Also what can I do to help resolve the problem that locked up my phone? I would love to use this rom daily.

So in recap other than the two things mentioned above, great work on this rom! For me once its more stable and the T-64 CDMA issue is fixed, I have a feeling I'm going to go to this rom full time. I will be checking out the next rom update soon as its posted :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
The pulldown (carrier) text varies by device, and is dependent upon the maintainer to provide a different file than what is defined by AOSP. The PA device repo for toro doesn't have it fixed.

As far as providing feedback on your lockup, you could grab a logcat if you can trigger the scenario in a repeatable fashion.

Proximity Sensor Issues

Just to clarify, I dont know if its the sensor itself or the rom.

But my screen keeps flickering on and off while im talking on the phone.

When I press the power button, it stays off fine, but when its initially on and the phone is next to my ear, it turns on and off (not a flicker, but "on" and "off")

I had a similar issue last month when my phone screen would just go blank when a call came in or went out. Not letting me use the touchpad to dial extensions or options or even end the call.

The fix was me flashing the same rom version over the current one.

Has anyone else experienced this?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CouttsPhotog:
Anybody else have a lot of stability issues? I love this rom but it is driving me insane, constant lockups every day to the point that I can't even trust the phone if my life depended on it. I'm using whatever kernel flashes with it and i've done many clean installs, it starts out fine but after just a couple weeks always gets this bad. I went back to stock for a month but couldn't take it anymore so I came back, and I'm still having the same issues.

Usually when using gps / listening to music, hitting the home button seems to crash the launcher. Fixing permissions doesn't fix anything, clearing cache doesn't either. Clearing cache for individual apps that give issues doesn't seem to fix anything. If I get some logcat logs would this help? Like I said I love this rom but I've literally almost smashed my gnexus to pieces every day because I rage over the lockups.

It's not my g nexus because I've replaced the main board recently to fix an issue with 4g connectivity, so it's not hardware related (that replaced the flash storage and everything, so count hardware / a lemon phone out).

I'm really stumped, am I seriously the only person in the world who rages over daily lockup issues? Nightly / stable doesn't matter, after a few weeks they both have the same problems.

p.s. for a few months now DSP manager doesn't seem to change anything (equalizer doesn't affect the sound in any way), is this some known bug as well?
