Damn good app! Thanks a lot bro. That's why I love these forums :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Not a problem :)

FYI, you can customize the light levels by opening the dashboard and using the slider to adjust the level and then press and hold the chain icon and that will link that light level to the ambient light where you're at.

Also' I recommend setting it to adjust the level on screen on, seems to be the most effective IMO.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] warh34d:
Yes I've been playing around its settings for some time. Any idea on why the soft buttons won't dim? I found the relevant settings but it seems to need root and I don't get any prompts from supersu. The electric blue of the time is too bright in comparison to the rest of the screen.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] tiny4579:
I believe the soft keys have nothing to do with the screen brightness rather a framework mod. Aokp had that option in ICS to change nav bar key transparency which affected bjrhgntess. Not sure about aokp jb though.

Facebook App Issues?

I'm sorry if this has been asked before. I tried searching for this (this forum, all of XDA, Google) to see if anyone's seen similar stuff but I didn't really get any encouraging results.

I've noticed that there's some artifacts/problems in the Facebook app ever since I installed Paranoid Android on my Nexus 7 (yesterday).

Firstly, in the Facebook News Feed, whenever someone has 'Liked' something, it displays duplicates the thumbs up icon and X people like this. In looking at it, the second occurence is always a bit bigger than the first (both the icon and text, if I can trust my eyes).

Secondly, I can't seem to comment on anything. It opens up the text box. But not matter how/where I click, my keyboard won't come up. I normally use the Swype Beta as my keyboard, but I've tried the stock Android keyboard and it does the same thing.

I've tried tinkering with all of the per-app settings in the Paranoid Settings menu, but that doesn't seem to have any effect on the app except for changing the font size. I've also cleared the data, uninstalled and reinstalled the Facebook app a couple times to no avail.

Does anyone have any other suggestions that I can try?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Have you connected to an exchange server? Have you enabled encryption?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Hussainally:
nope
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Go to settings - security - device administrators. Is there anything in there?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] 3thman:

Does anyone have mirror for 2.1.1? Seems Goo.im is down.

Might have missed a mirror in the thread, if there is one.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dnilsson:
And how do I do that ;) ?

I've tried to change in build.prop, rebooted but nothing changed.

Does "LCD Density Modder Pro" work with JB? Can I use that app to change DPI?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gonzalocav:
Elementary question

Hi! I know this is a basic question... If I flash ParanoidAndroid, I'll get Google updates via OTA, or then I'll have to update manually ParanoidAndroid for each update?

There are two theads under Nexus7: Original Development vs. Android Development. What does this mean?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] redmonke255:
You won't get Google ota. Install goo manager and you'll get pretty much ota updates for this.

Original development is for real developers, android development is just for kangs and other junk.

Hi,

is it possible to hide the navigationbar completely somehow ??

or can i use the CM10 version of this mod->

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30942-mod-no-navigation-jro03d-winner00s-cm10/

with PA?

i used this mod a while on stock rom and was happy about the extra space for gaming and surfing :o)

thx

inteks

edit: ok ..... found it
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Sengir:
Thank you but the app doesn't work at 170 dpi

Obviously you can ask why 120 :D ..I'm trying to run the italian skygo app that is originally designed to work on a 8.9"+ envroinment but I red that someone managed to get it working on a 7 galaxy tab changing the DPI to 120..BTW even doing this the app has still problems but at least it works :)

It's impossible to get full screen.. ;)

EDIT: If I modify the proprierties.conf even changing only the min dpi,paranoid settings chrashes and if I reboot, the tablet is blocked in the boot animation.. I tried 2 times and 2 times i needed to reflash the rom.. Any hint?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dnilsson:
How do you change the dpi to 120?

I'm trying to change dpi on my homescreen so that my icons will be smaller.

But nothing happens when I change in build.prop or in PA settings...

Or can anyone else tell me how to fix this?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sean.trinidade:
What launcher are you using? try selecting that in PA Settings, and changing the DPI for that app there.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] blacswede:
Where did you find the lockscreen rotation setting?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] p-slim:
Its in settings, display, rotation

What makes ParanoidAndroid use 100MB More ram then CM10 and Stuck :( It is the only reason why I can't stick on it. I feel like it is not clean :/

Scumbag XDA'er: finds answer to own question; doesn't post answer.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
be careful with that file. its the same as build.prop, do something wrong and it can have bad effects. i know theres even editors out there screwing it up. it should be simple and straightforward to change an apps dpi - i do it in seconds. on the frontpage its explained in two big pictures. what you read was about build.prop tablet mode. in the old days they used to change build.prop dpi to fake apps into tabUI - it was backwards and had many, many sideeffects. with pa you do this by a single tap and it should be easy and safe. on pa dpi does what it should do, it simply scales, nothing more. if you want your app to change its layout, do it by simply tapping the layout of your choice in the pa panel.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] toker_X1:
Use 'Expanded Desktop' from the Power Menu then start app. - I used it for full screen gaming.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sean.trinidade:
Guys, had the weirdest issue today.

I've been playing around changing the DPI of various apps over the last few days, and everything seemed fine. Used my N7 this morning (on the way into work) and was fine, but then went to check it at lunch time and my entire navigation/status bar had disappeared.

I tried everything to restore it - resetting the user interface, changing the workspace from tablet->phone ui->stock ui, even re-flashing the rom didn't help. Eventually, I had to wipe everything on the device and reinstall the ROM (+gapps etc.) from scratch.

Everything seems to be OK now, but was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or not?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DakiX:
Great ROM and i love the wallpapers :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] derekny:
facebook

just curious if this was happening to anyone else. if i try to comment on someones pic/post it opens dialog space but doesn't open the keyboard to type anything. on the flip if i want to update status / check in it does open keyboard. Buddy's kids 1st bday trying to comment on pic of baby but cant no keyboard. thanks......someone did ask about this in thread but no response. not a huge FB'er but just curious, any help thanx in advance, great rom cheers!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
weird...I noticed that this morning as well...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Neckhole:
Yes, I noticed this when I flashed the ROM for the first time and tinkered with it yesterday. I posted this a few pages back but I think it got lost in the discussion.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
This is how it looks to me:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Neckhole:
That's exactly what I was seeing. I was going to grab a screenshot this evening and post it. Thanks for posting it!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Yeah, I'm not sure how to fix it. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and reset the app in ParanoidSettings, all to no avail.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Sengir:
Thank you again for the quick reply. The problem is that the app is made to run only on 8.9 and 10.1 galaxy tab (I really don't know why) but I managed it to run on various tablets including eee pad transformer e sony tablet s.. It simply doesn't start on a smartphone or a 7" tablet. I don't want to change the layout,I simply want to use it :D as i pay a monthly fee to Sky for this. (it's a pay tv I don't know if you have it there).

As I red on a galaxy tab forum,somebody uses it on a 7" gtab simply changing dpi to 120. I don't want to set my device to 120 but only this app,so this rom seems perfect to me :) the problem is that if I modify in that file the specific app line or %rom_dpi_min,I can't reboot and try if this trick works.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Is it a paid app? If it's a free app, I can decompile it and see if I can tinker with the layout in java and xml.

I see that it is a free app, but I can't download it from the play store. Can you pull the apk and send it to me?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] redmonke255:
I think it's safe to assume it's Facebook's fault, seeing as their app always sucks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Well, yesterday it worked...today it doesn't...and there wasn't an update to the app.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Neckhole:
I'm beginning to think it's Facebook's fault too. Among my friends we have several Nexus 7s, it looks like non-Paranoid Android ROMs are also having this same issue. I looked in the Play store and I see at least one comment regarding the double-likes and lack of a keyboard on commenting.

It's entirely possible that the Facebook App in android is just a wrapper for a version of Facebook on the web. It's entirely possible that Facebook could make updates that we didn't necessarily have to update our app for.

I plan to confirm this with my wife's tablet tonight. But I am beginning to feel pretty confident that it's Facebook's fault.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
um, how in the world can PA cause this? its impossible ------ :D

and if it only started yesterday --- theres your answer, the app fetches html. its not a native app. little server kink is enough and the php spews out a double entry. even that double entry needs a logic behind, a real knowledge of the apps innards. maybe im nuts but im thinking it would be almost impossible for a rom to cause it, please prove me wrong.

i must say im getting a little bit tired of it. please for goodness sake dial down the app stuff at least a tiny bit. apps do screw up sometimes, we all know it. dont pour that stuff into this poor topic. first isolate the issue, reproduce it, try to solve by evaluating your options (switch off hybrid, system/user overrides, reset app-hybrid props, delete app cache, delete cwm cache, kill and redownload). then make a logcat and go either here or directly to the developer of your app.

i can honestly say i have seen only a few cases where hybrid screwed an app. in almost every case it turned out to be an app problem, although often caused by flawed code in their higher layout containers which most roms cannot reveal.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
I wasn't blaming the rom, just stating that the app hasn't been updated,

I have tried most all of the things you mentioned, and I wasn't going to report it, but just responded to others posting about it.

I didn't know that the FB app wasn't native. Explains why it is so damn slow.

I very much like this rom, and it cured my crack-flasher habit, lol.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Neckhole:
As a new user to PA, it's disappointing to see that a ROM has been created that allows you to configure and switch the layouts of every single application, but then to have exasperation targeted at you for asking questions about applications to determine whether issues they encounter are related to the ROM or not. I hope you'll realize that it took a few of us 4-5 posts to find and share the answer to our questions. Future people with the same questions can now arrive at the same conclusion that we came to. If we hadn't been through this process and discovered it all on our own, someone else would've inevitably asked the very same question.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
oh, so it took you 4-5 posts. it took me 4-5 months of my life to offer you this rom and you dont have the manners to evaluate your options before you post? i do like to keep close contact and everyone knows that. i read everything and answer most of it. but there are times when i want to do the same that pretty much all other devs do around here: leave their topics alone. pa has been one of the few roms left on xda where developers actually listen to you, i can assure you that is not normal for xda.

now ask yourself, what can i do if you storm here and post a problem that you havent investigated at least a minute? all i see is a big fat "bug report," no detailed description, no logcat, nothing. and some of these "errors" are so silly it just pains me. 99.99999% has nothing, whatsoever, to do with the rom. please remember, this is still a developer thread, not a kindergarden. i am interested in issues caused by the hybrid engine. and it costs you mere seconds to switch that off to see if its that. im fine you post here and definitively like that you guys help each other out. but investigate more if somethings wrong please, you owe me that. --- you dont want me to turn into yet another bitter xda dev.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Sengir:
It would be fantastic,the app is free but it isn't on the play store,it's only on samsung app and you can download it only if you have a galaxy tab (doesn't work on my s2) I'll send you an mp ;)

I really don't know why they've done such a thing because you have to pay a monthly fee in order to use it....
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
its fine. just notice the influx of people currently, pa has for some reason gotten quite big. i am myself not used to it, i recognize most people and know them by name and its fun. pages of silly app-bug-reports make it less personal and less enjoyable. so it would be good if people remembered to do their part when an issue occurs. its easy for you, makes you learn about logcat and androids innards, saves time and space - and this topic can remain focused. ;)

Do YOUR Part to Help the Help Vampires!

There's a user here on xda who has a signature all about 'help vampires'; how to identify them, how to avoid them, how to help them help themselves, how to identify yourself as one, and the proper path to recovery from this condition.

Here's the link from her SIG: Help Vampires - A Spotter's Guide

A lot of people on XDA -- not just this thread -- would benefit tremendously from reading this article four or five time through and taking it SERIOUSLY, not tongue-in-cheek. The XDA community as a whole would benefit greatly if it were required reading with a test at the end in order to create an account, here.

I'm not saying people shouldn't ask for help when they get stuck, but the average definition of 'stuck' around here is 'didn't work [the way I wanted it to] the very first time, and I can't be assed with spending any time troubleshooting it on my own (or [I've never taken the time in my life to bother developing troubleshooting skills in the first place. Why should I when there's always someone available to do it for me?]), so I'm going to ask for assistance and respond with an absurd sense of entitlement when I'm told I should try to figure it out on my own'.

Now, as Tech N9ne says "If I've offended you in any way, maybe the shoe fits"

#JustSayin'
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Neckhole:
I expected more than an ad hominem response and I'll save you the trouble to respond in kind. I spent quite awhile troubleshooting what I could and there wasn't any guidance in the first couple pages of the thread (which I read all of) or any of the subsequent dozens of pages that I skimmed over. Considering that, it seems pretty unreasonable for you to get bent out of shape and rant at us because we didn't meet your poorly documented expectations.

That being said, I'm sure there are tons of people who appreciate your participation in the thread, it's better for it. I've owned quite a few different devices since the G1 and I've always valued ROMs which have participating developers.I'll If there's something you'd like me to do with my old posts, let me know and I will clean them up.

I'll go back to lurking now.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drewski_1:
i don't know about the 120, but i tried adjusting both Nova & Trebuchet to 160 in the PA settings and got smaller icons.

with Trebuchet you get large margins. not sure if that's adjustable. it is with Nova.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jay Aristide:
moles, I'm thinking about writing a guide called 'Getting the Most out of Paranoid Android' that goes over most of the issues we see posted over and over in this thread. I would submit it to you for review whenever I posted or revised it, take your feedback and revise it again, then post the revisions. People could post the questions there that you (very understandably) don't want cluttering up this thread, and I could grow the guide constantly as PA is further developed, change log included. This would free up this thread for it's intended purpose, and at the same time, give users a 2-4 post one-stop-shop for 'how do I get this app to do this?'. All I would ask for is a link to the thread in your OP and a few minutes of your time on a regular basis to look over my revisions/concepts/ideas and offer your feedback.

What do you think?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Juvenall:
I'm thinking there's no way anyone could be against that. That would help a bunch of people.

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for some help. I've tried to flash zenith navigation keys on top of this Rom. When trying to boot back into android, I cannot get past the boot animation (which is awesome, btw) Can anybody give some direction as to what I should do? I cannot get into recovery, however I can get to fast boot mode.

Thanks kindly,
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GeekMcLeod:
When I can't get to recovery, I use the toolkit. Go to fast boot, the toolkit should recognize the device. Reboot to android, wait until it should be loaded up and the toolkit should recognize it, although I've had it not sometimes. If it does, use the reboot options in the toolkit to reboot to recovery. It should work. If not, sorry for wasting your time. Hope you get it fixed!

Spectacular idea! I would definitely assist and contribute as much as possible. You could even have a section for my shared dropbox folder :P

Most people know I try to help everyone using PA as much as possible (not so much in these forums since I'm still used to having just a GNex). This would be even better for me to assist people with their issues. Would also help so much with all the help or how to questions these threads get.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jay Aristide:
To add to this, it would appear Zenith Nav isn't compatible with this ROM. AFAIK, it's not compatible with CM.. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GeekMcLeod:
You're wrong:) They are implemented in the themes I use and I used to use the steps written in the zenyth soft key thread to get them working in PA. If no one tries, when I get home I'll use that method to get them working on my N7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] leelaa:
Paranoid android is without a doubt the biggest and most popular rom for the nexus 7 (at least) choosing paranoidandroid is a no brainer.

At first i didnt mind the stock ui but i have been on paranoid for about 3 weeks now, i flashed a rom yesterday and it just didnt seem right.

Had to come back to PA.

Well done moles :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GeekMcLeod:
+1 to that!

I'd be surprised if anyone could (on any device):

1. Flash this

2. Use it for a week

3. Switch back to something 'normal'

4. WANT to stay with the 'normal'
[Nexus 7 Original Development] leelaa:
Agreed.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
no, dont worry. it wasnt targeted at you or anyone personally. if i wrote "you" its meant in a general sort of way. you gotta understand me, sometimes something that should be fun and gratifying feels like a job, but without the dough. every now and then you got to crack down on it i guess to remind people they ought to do their part in this, thats all. recently im being flooded with app reports on several threads and im kinda bored by it, feels like these pages are not meant to keep in touch but mere lifeless reporting measures. as a developer i welcome reports of course, but only if they help. in my nexus topic one guy made a whole video to show me some bug --- i spent hours today to study it, simply because he gave me material to work with.

my expectations are not "poorly documented" as you say btw, there is a whole chapter dealing with it on the op. i know no one reads it, but its there. ;)

If you have an issue and you want to call our attention, here's what you do:

1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, go back to your stock Kernel, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.

2. Search this thread and Cyanogenmods aswell (its our base) for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.

3. If you think the issue is important enough that we should cease our work and look into it, post your issue, BUT ...

... stay friendly, do not demand anything, do not threaten

... explain your issue as precise as you can, name the exact apps and conditions that cause trouble, help us to replicate the issue right away. If we can't there's no way we can fix it and your post will simply clutter the thread

... collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
yes, by all means. if you like - go ahead, it would help alot of people.
