.....I hate waiting for a new ROM :mad: must flash soooooon..... Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Don't ask for ETA's, Jaybob's been pretty good at dropping updates quickly! ;)

Sent from my AK Skull powered AOSPA 3.5 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrHeyWilly:
The reason why jaybob probably hasn't release a Toro build is because a newer came out a day after. Patience my young padawan lol, in due time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
Nephilim, will you be trying the new Franco PA kernel? I use AK per your recommendation with your settings and have had great results but on G+ the dev said to expect better battery life and benchmarks with the new Franco kernel. Just wondering
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
I may be wrong.. But from what I understand right now, the new kernel is for mako. I think Jay Bob will have to compile with a different kernel as I'm pretty sure mako and toro are not compatible. BUT if it does make it's way to us.. I think we all owe it a fair shake.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Mako and Toro are not compatible, Nexus 4 vs VZW Galaxy Nexus. However, if they do one for maguro (Galaxy Nexus GSM) that should be compatible with Toro (VZW Galaxy Nexus) and ToroPlus (Sprint Galaxy Nexus).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I personally am a member of Team AK, I will never stray from Stefano's wonderful kernels, Franco does great work and I will never discredit his development but I am dedicated to being a loyal AK Kernel user. ;)

I believe that since Franco kernels work for both Mako and Tuna the code will be part of the compiling process of the rom itself, thus meaning the stock kernels for PA regardless of the nexus device will be optimized by Franco.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blckngldhwk:
Also, per Franco, this is NOT Franco.kernel but rather a collaborative effort on the stock PA kernel. It's a Franco kernel but not THE Franco.kernel.

Does anyone else's phone lag really bad when they have halo)) turned on?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jackattack:
Yup. I've had crazy lag for the last few days. After reading your post I turned off halo))) and now I'm running smooth again. I was about to do a full wipe and reflash.

I'm not 100% sure it was halo))) but it seems like it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joqsan:
Does anyone have a solution I've switched from ROM to ROM every single 4.2.2 ROM that I have been on has had serious lag. This ROM has been the best so far but still getting crazy lag
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mohawk3:
I have been good all day since I flashed AK 250 this morning, but generally I have had to reboot like I was still using my blackberry storm with most Roms. Axiom has been pretty decent. Project Elite was good. I found that lag would creep in less if I wasn't using pie or an expanded desktop.

I would say that my experience so far with alpha 5 has been filed with lag, with the exception of today. I am using pie, expanded desktop, and halo. I also have the halo app installed.

I'm a huge fan of the Rom though and think it will only keep getting better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jackattack:
I've been getting crazy reboots with all the AK kernels from 243-250. No undervolting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Everyone with lag issues, remember, Alpha 6 dropped today, give it a bit and hopefully Jaybob gets a build out for us real soon. (Getting impatient lol)

I have had no lag on any of the PA roms, I never ever have to reboot my device like a blackberry either. I have the Halo))) app installed and it causes no issues. I strongly suggest doing a once over with apps to see if one may be causing your issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mohawk3:
[/QUOTE

Yeah I'm a big fan of the AK kernels, I saw I'm another forum that a lot of ROMs have been running into lag. The proposed solution is to flash stock images boot it up and then wipe everything and flash the ROM you want. Kinda a lot of work but I've flashed so many ROMs and they all end up the same. So I'm gonna give it a shot

I did see that somewhere. I have gone through my data and deleted anything I thought was not being used anymore and that helped somewhat.

I generally clean install Roms with only reporting select application data. These have helped my experience. I also use greenify and I turn off map notifications.

Today has been a good day for me with no lag. Granted my phone was in my pocket for the majority of the day while at work.

I don't particularly have random reboots or SOD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I'm still on v248, waiting to use v250 when Jaybob releases Halo Alpha6. Can't wait, the anticipation is killing me! Been f5'ing for half the day! lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
Why is that jaybob can build pa but fairct can't. Does he have special privileges access to the source code? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Jaybob is the official Toro maintainer of AOSPA, until PA Halo goes into beta the code is only available to official Nexus Maintainers.

I wish it was open source, Fairct knocks out the new builds the second they hit git. (Not that I don't appreciate Jaybob building for us)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
Yeah I know that fairct does that. Hopefully Jay Bob comes out of now where and drops a build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Yep, that's what I've been hoping all day. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
Come on guys, we have enough trouble with noobs asking for etas as it is. I know what you're saying, but I say we set an example and stay away from that line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
It may be because you have a GSM version and you are on a board for CDMA version. They are incompatible. I did not think it would even boot. If you did install the correct version of PA, then it is likely a kernel or app giving you trouble. I would do a clean install from big brothers thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
I don't know why... but I get some serious lag on the latest build. To the point where it's completely unusable. The unlock is slow & hesitates. Typing in a browser is ridonkulous. Sometimes it's fine, regardless of the kernel, and it is usable but for the most part it's very laggy. Clean installs... re-downloaded the rom... Flashed different kernels.... I want to use my 220dpi tablet mode but I can't. :( I'm hoping the next round will bring better results for me because I see over & over that people are having a good experience so it must be me or something I did but I can't imagine what that could possibly be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
As annoying as it sounds, I was getting lag on all rom. I flashed back to stock once before a custom rom and all has been good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I seemed to have issues like this as well as sub-par battery life (not at all scientific, just what it seemed like). I flashed back to one of my pre-halo builds (well, technically a build of the source as it is now on PA's git, so it lacks halo) and it seems to be acting better. REALLY weird thing was, none of my Google app restore stuff worked, no matter which GAPPS I used or which ROM (jaybob's or mine) on my most recent clean flashes. But... maybe user error ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
The people using it Alpha6 on Mako have been saying there is much improvement compared to the prior Alphas, hopefully this will be the case for Toro, Toro+ and Maguro as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joqsan:
Guys if you are having lag issues, do a clean wipe and flash a stock 4.2.2 ROM totally stock. Boot it up, do the set up and stuff then go back and do another clean wipe and flash your preferred rom. This totally got rid of all the lag i was having on ALL 4.2.2 ROMS
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itslels:
Been running alpha5 sense release and only occasionally experience minimal lag that seems to come with every 4.2.2. ROM. Battery life started out good, but seems to be suffering the last few days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlvlawrence:
I did this about 3 weeks ago. I've been going back and forth between this and AOKP. I've had no issues with lag. Always running the latest AK kernel with both. Battery life seems to also be the some on both ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
CRAZY idea... it worked for me.. try replacing the gmscore.apk in the gapps package. Stuff will restore like magic. Does for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pitokellie:
can't install apk files

hi! can anyone help me i try to install apk apps and everytime i press the install nothing happens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DeeMann:
disable halo by sending it to the top of the screen X
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pitokellie:
thank you got it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
I haven't had a terrible lag either. I have been on alpha 5 for like a week and I haven't noticed any lag whatsoever
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shinyhead:
occasional lag is normal for any kind of computer (include a phone). Add more applications using resource and it will be more frequent. Lag will always be around, unless the scheduler is very smart and has unlimited hardware resources :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
I have dirty flashed all the alpha builds over fairct's builds. Haven't had any lag issues running ak248 kernel. I have had an occasional dirty reboot. Not sure why. running nephilms kernel settings no undervolting. I remember not that long ago people were having issues with TWRP not formatting correctly. Don't know how true that was or whether it's fixed. But maybe could be cause of lag. Might also explain why wiping everything and going stock and then back to custom would correct it. Just my .02
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Since the release of the first AOSP PA (2.99 Beta 1) I have had no lag, the only problem I had was with a huge memory leak in 2.99 Beta 4 (I think Beta 4 or maybe Beta 5), That was fixed quickly in the next beta. I have dirty flashed every single AOSPA update without any problems since AOSPA 2.99 Beta 1. Those having lag issues I suggest wiping/reformatting the SDcard, I have detailed instructions on how to do so without having to do a clean install, you can find the link in my signature, I do this once every couple months or so and you will see a significant improvement in performance and speed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
See your instructions make sense if a user is experiencing lag on every ROM. I only experience lag on THIS rom, regardless of kernel or settings for a kernel. On every flash I go through my SD card and delete the folders I don't need leaving those that I know have my data in them. Also I've flash back to 100% stock about two weeks ago because I was bored & wanted to get a fresh start. I can dirty flash my daily driver every single night (and do) with no lag, no hesitation, no bugs, no issues. The issue is persistent from build to build with AOSPA and only AOSPA builds.

The lag I see is as follows

a) Slow unlocks. This happens a lot worse during the downloading of apps but once everything has settled down the lag is still there. Happens with stock launcher, Nova, and Apex (and Next Launcher 3D)

b) Slow opening of apps.

c) Softkeys lag. ie pressing home take more than a second 'er two.

d) Typing with stock keyboard, as well as SwiftKey, in Chrome and/or Chrome beta.

There are more examples but I think I've beaten the horse enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
I can't install downloaded .apk files for some reason. I already changed the Security setting to allow Unknown sources to install. Am I missing another setting? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
The thing is, just deleting things off your SDcard does not do the same thing, you have to move or backup the important things on your SDcard and do a full wipe, it's like wiping a harddrive, I can't just delete folders and apps and then expect it to improve things, I have to wipe the temporary internet files, the temp files, the cache, the cookies, and then finally do a system defragmentation. Luckily all of those things aren't needed for the SDcard location, you just have to do a full wipe of it and move the items/folders you wanted to keep back from whereever you have them saved. (I just move them to a folder on my pc, wipe the sdcard and then return them).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
Turn off HALO.

---------- Post added at 01:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

Oh I know. Like I stated in my post. I just did what you described a week 'er so ago. I can assure you my lag isn't caused by fragmented sd.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Dude, I do not mean to come off rude but this has been brought up and answered hundreds of times, if you took the time to skim the last 5 or 10 pages and/or used the XDA search function you would not have had to ask this.

You have to disable Halo in order to side-load applications.

Please, read and search in the future.

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

It's strange, seems like only certain people are having this lag issue. I'm really hoping that once Jaybob releases Alpha6 the lag issue goes away. Nexus 4 users claimed Alpha6 is running the smoothest so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
Thanks for the quick prompt answers y'all! I knew you were f5-ing the browser waiting for the latest release so asking would have been faster than searching.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nazgul07:
Have you checked your build.prop?

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit got increased in 4.2.2 to 96m instead of 64m. When I put it back to 64m all my lag issues disappear.

This fix has been getting merged to most major roms (it originated in cm I think)...not sure if jaybobs builds have this fixed in them or not...but it's worth checking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parkson:
I also noticed in many 4.2.2 custom ROMs the dalvik.vm.heapminfree=2m, instead of 512k, as it is in stock Google 4.2.2. Amy insight on this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nazgul07:
Yeah I think the larger that is, then you end up with less ram usage...hence an attempt to increase performance...don't quote me on that though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Didn't know this. I for one would not want to edit this myself. How easy is this to do. If there is validity to this I hope It can be instituted here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nazgul07:
You can edit your build.prop by using a file manager (the cm file manager works but you'll need to give it root permissions). It's located at

/system/build.prop

Be careful editing settings in there though. Some can put you into boot loops if set wrong...but most are harmless...and/or don't do anything drastic when you change them...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaybob413:
Pa 3.55 (halo 6)

Latest updated build of PA-3.55 (HALO6) is available on goo, and the link has been posted to the OP.

Apologies to the flashaholics for the delay, had some technical issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
It's up!!! Just got goo notified. THx jay. Ur the bomb
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmileti:
Damn goo takes forever.

New gapps on goo as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NyPlaya513:
my god am I happy!!! I was checking for update on a borderline 30 minute basis for the past 2 days
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stkiswr:
this it? I will give it a try first.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edwinr29:
can't we just uninstall sdm???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dxjay:
i can vouch both freezing and uninstalling sdm gave me a longer battery life. and trinity works amazing on this rom its so smooth and the colors are a lot better i dont get that purple bleed coming from the top right when using the browser!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HTCF4N:
So much buttterrrr.... :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danperde:
+1 Even though I did a clean install, I can only see the pictures on my phone, in Gallery. No pictures from Google, Picassa, Google+, Dropbox...nothing. I have all the accounts set up and working, still, the pictures are not showing in Gallery. Does anyone know a fix?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShannonPricePhoto:
Loving this!!! Put it on yesterday and it is so smoooove.

I did notice lte toggle does not turn off 4g, which I do a lot to save battery.

Is there any way to have the brightness slider show in notifications like aokp? In tablet mode if you hit clock and then settings it will show, just like the one step for when its full dim and walk outside at noon lol, ya just know its right there...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HTCF4N:
I'm not liking the new Gallery apk at all. In fact none of my photos from the SD card show up so I'm using quick pic instead. In 4.1 the gallery apk and camera is integrated in one apk and it seems to be incomplete. Maybe future releases will address the issue but in the meantime enjoy the buttteurrh!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yowler:
1.9 is working great so far, really enjoy this ROM. Wish I would have started using it sooner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SocialReject:
Play store keeps crashing. What'd I miss?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SocialReject:
Definitely a bug.

Only happens when trying to add the Library widget.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbeezybaby:
Just curious but is the pa toro ROM in the op under ICS the most recent version of the ICS ROM. I know it seems self explanatory but I just wanna confirm before I flash it. I'm getting serious overheating issues with jb and I'd like to run this ROM again. Thanks guys. Awesome ROM !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hxdrummerxc:
Late answer, but

Yosemite National Park California.

Glacier point lookout.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stkiswr:
If you are formating system and doing a data reset and wiping Calvin and getting overheating more than likely you have a rouge app pulling info. I for one haven't had any overheat among many jelly builds from dif devs.

Not knocking your methods, just throwing it out there to inspect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbeezybaby:
Yeah any time I switch between ROMs I start from scratch. I may try again before I try anything else. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amathophobia:
I was having the overheating issue as well but I did a clean install using super wipe first and then flashing trinity kernel right after and I haven't had my phone heat up one bit on 1.9. Give it a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hxdrummerxc:
I cant seem to change the camera dpi,

Im using phablet mode small, but the camera app is still using the stock camera dpi.

so I tried to change the camera dpi, by going to Paranoid settings - apps - but camera is not in the list. :(

The tablet version of the camera app not only looks better, but it functions better. Has anyone else been able to change the camera dpi separately?

I can't find it under apps. ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolshock1:
You have to change the Gallery app. I believe there's an issue with changing the dpi. I know I tried it at various settings and it never looked right. I believe moles commented on this several pages back.

---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

Forgot to add that you the Gallery app controls both the Gallery and the Camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fizeke136:
You have to change the gallery setting. it controls the camera too. However, I dont think all the bugs have been worked out yet, because when you change the dpi, it distorts the camera buttons.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NyPlaya513:
well here is the strange thing, the newest PA gapps is 5/17....which I am about to flash with this in a bit
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
Anyone here play Iron Man 3? I was able to download and play before but now when i reinstalled it I get an insufficient space error message. I cleared data for the Play Store and still nothing. I also deleted the old OBB files as well before redownloading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonzsoul:
Hmm, is anyone else having difficulty getting a GPS lock? On previous versions of PA, GPS locked insanely fast
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parkson:
Not sure how it looked on previous versions, but the gps.conf could use this line to begin (granted you live in USA)

NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JJsevol:
Where are those gapps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
In the link I posted one page ago, you would know that if you took a whole 5 seconds to look.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
I hope you have plenty of blood pressure medication, man. You get pretty worked up over this stuff. :cool:

On a ROM-related note changing that dalvik.vm.heapminfree lower did help a little bit. The lag isn't nearly as bad for me on the previous build & on the new one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Anyone else notice there is no fade-out animation on the halo windows, only when they open? On all the Nexus 4 videos the animation works nice and smooth when opening and closing the halo windows. I've tried with dirty flash and with fresh install. Animations are still missing from closing out of Halo windows.

I know this is an Alpha so it's all good and does not keep anything from functioning for me, just wondering if this is just an issue with Galaxy Nexus devices currently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyjohn:
I've noticed it on the home launcher but not while on other apps thus far, I'm about to try apex and see
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I know it happens on Apex. I'll double check in front of other apps now that I'm on Alpha6.

Edit* You're right john, it seems to happen only on the launcher, it fades out correctly on all the apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] agreenbhm:
I'm running Alpha 6 with LeanKernel 6.6 and everything is working like a charm. Holo is great!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NyPlaya513:
To clarify, for anyone looking to get and use the new 5/17 PA gapps even if the OP states to used the 4/27, they can be obtained by going to the paranoidandroid dev page on goo.im and going to the gapps folder. This is the location of all of their gapps as they are updated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I'm noticing a pretty big speed improvement with alpha 6. So far so good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JJsevol:
Useful for noobs, but not for me. I saw your comment and I don't need those. A misquote here and there happens, so calm down.

THIS is what I originally wanted, thank you :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NyPlaya513:
are you using the stock kernel or a custom? just curious. I am toying around with axiom for a bit before returning to my PA fun

edit

one more thing for those that have flashed. Now I know this is a stand alone and not a simple port for maguro but their build of 3.55 just got its second upload claiming bug fixes. Is there any need/presence of bugs in this build that may have push me to wait for a newer release?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IAreKyleW00t:
New PA Gapps that were just released today (5/22): http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps/pa_gapps-full-4.2-20130522-signed.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 808phoneaddict:
Shux, I just did a clean install with a full factory reset...then flashed the new alpha 6, you think flashing the new gapps right over the old one would he alright?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itslels:
alpha 6 running great here. the updated halo bubble looks nicer. I'm not sure I see a huge speed improvement...its snappier here and there but I havent really had any lag issues with alpha5 anyway. when I read the post for it on g+...is the nexus 4 the only build with the new Franco made kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmonzel:
Flash gapps, wipe cache and Dalvik, and you should be set.
