Beautiful!

May be just me, but I couldn't get wifi to turn on. I installed it 3 different ways with the same results. :confused:

I did forget to add that the pa settings IS working now. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
indeed, wifi is not working.. still a bit of work on that..

with some tricks, i managed to make the wifi work with the build released, but to have something working out-of-the-box, i must recompile and it takes a long time .. (20 hours to compile last time ..on my VM)

thanks for feedbacks, but if you are the only one, i think i won't work so much on it..

for now, i'm on vacation ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
By all means, enjoy yourself. I think you're doing a great job on this. Take a break, drink a beer for me. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
I will :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Hey Benetnath, please enjoy your vacation :D :D

I'm sure, there will be more people who would try your build...

Greetings,
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
i certainly hope that people will test the one currently uploading..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
hello folks,

please, test the new release :

http://tinyw.in/ep3X

many functionalities are working now, thanks to iuss et al.

feedbacks needed on 3G.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Benetnath, i downloaded it. I'll post my feedback.

Greetings,
[Miscellaneous Android Development] victix11:
I will try to free up some time to flash it tomorrow..but I'm not sure if I can manage to...busy life :P if I can, I'll report later on!

Thank you for all your effort on this rom, I'm really thankful for it! Keep it up bro!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
LOL!! You're as bad as me! Face it, you're a friggin workaholic. That's one of the shortest vacations I have ever seen. :) :D

I'm gonna dl this puppy and give it a spin.

Thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Well, after 12 hours of usage, this rom works excelent with bugs on the way....

# 3G is working as it should (didn't tried mms)...

# Wifi, BT working

# same bugs as cm10 from iuss...

- touchscreen acting weird,

- no battery usage data,

- no FM radio,

- no compas/magnetic sensor

Another thing, i left the phone for 2 hours, and found it stuck on the bootscreen (not bootloader)... removed the battery three times and the phone couldn't boot into the rom...so i wiped cache, dalvik and rebooted and it was ok.

This is the first time for me to use a Paranoid android rom, so i'm really happy with it :)

Benetnath, you did a great job, i'll test your builds.

Greetings,
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Thanks for the feedback

Ben
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Aleksandar, how did you flash both roms? With the jb recovery (6xxx) or did you boot with the stock (5xxx)?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] victix11:
Nice work Ben

wootwoot just flashed the ROM. it booted after one battery pull-out :p but the gapps weren't installed, trying to flash those again as I'm typing. For the first impression, this ROm is great, it is smooth (i can definetely feel project butter doing its work :P), fast and really looking good! I also like the paranoid settings, haven't gone through them all yet, but I like what i've seen! Really cool that one can actually change between different UI's with the ROM!

I will report more, when I tested further, but for now, here's my feedback:

#Rom is fast and buttery

#Wifi works good (even better than the tweeked ROM of mistercheese, which i've been using before)

#pa-settings work (As far as i've tested them)

#Has been said before, but when quickly swiping on the screen it kinda moves the opposite way

#prompt message at startup what ask you to unlock the network, not big a deal, 'cause you can just press ignore:P But it's strange as that doesn't have to be done in my country (The Netherlands) and it is a little annoying ^^

#no FM-radio, but if i recall correct that is a CM10(/9?) issue..

that's it for now :P thanks for everything Ben!

Victor
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
in addition : i've added the 2.55 version.

feedback welcome

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Carlosmff:
What's the Change Log for this release?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Time for flashiiing :D

Feedback on the way!

edit: Feedback :D

# Boots on the first time. Reboots are fast.

# As Ben said, same bugs present in this build.

# Battery drains the same (at least for me)

# Works fast, really fast. (Antutu Benchmark approx. ~5700)

# Works well with 4.1 and 4.2 Gapps - i've tried them both (4.2 Camera FC's when taking photos)

# GPS fix was fast, as fast in seconds (indoor). Outdoor maybe would be in ms :D Just kidding
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Sorry Ben, but I don't see any difference between the dec 1st release and today's. It seems to run the same and all the broken functions are still broken. Maybe it's just me though. I'm waiting to see what others have to say. It's still my favorite at the moment though. But if they add more custom functions to H1N1............. :rolleyes:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
tumaini418 :

did you read this ? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35340651&postcount=380

:D

indeed, no major change (changelog updated btw)

what kind of functions might be of interest ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
I did read it. I think it's a case of misinterpreted writing. I'm not complaining at all. I was just making an observation.

And what I meant by functions doesn't apply to PA. Matter of fact it's my daily rom from despite the BT issue. But since everything works in H1 if they were to add custom functions like there are in say CM10 then IT would become my day to day until PA were finished. But due to the fact that it's based strictly on the Alcatel build, I don't think I will trust it to be my permanent rom. That is unless it turns that the only choice I have is it or a straight up stock rom. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
no trouble ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
I did forget to mention that battery life is better. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] c0nguit0s:
problem

I just flashed the latest paranoid rom, and it keeps me giving a keyboard aosp error, don't let me write anything, also the home button and search button do not work...

anything i did wrong?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Did you flash gapps 4.2? If so reflash the rom and use other gapps. I don't know the version number. 4.2 didn't work well on this rom for me either.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] c0nguit0s:
ok, i will try it... how can i put usb mount to work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
NOTES:

To have working USB Mount under windows, desinstall One Touch Upgrade.

Then u need to install it lol u need drivers so usb to work ...

[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
Its just me or seems like battery life is better in the last build :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
It's possible, I've removed some older tweaks which appeared not useful
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
I made a fresh flash of the latest PA2.55. Gapps flashed: JB4.1.2.

CM Settings intact.

Cpumax 1401MHz; Cpumin: 245MHz; Guvernor Performance (i forgot to switch to Ondemand:eek:);
[Miscellaneous Android Development] moomoon03:
i really like this rom but there are 2 sad point for me!

the first is the no hardware decoding because by software sound is not on the good place with video

the second is the magnetic sensor!

i hope it ll be fix soon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Here's mine.

with standart setings, gapps through multipack++, theme applyed through theme chooser.

Changed guvernor to ondemand and the result came down to 5380.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
seems theme is decreasing a bit your perf on antutu

between 5.8k to 6k each time
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
That should be expected considering they are full of resource hogging eye candy. I always notice the difference, but I love my purple kush. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
hehe ;)

currently adding governors..

will see if it blocks the S50's owners
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
What do you mean?

I am themed and i had a bigger score then Alexandar did on a fresh install.

Or am i missing something?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
You're right. Maybe he thought....... hell, I don't know what he thought. lol. But you are right.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
sorry, saw only your 5300 score, not the picture.

no, everything seems ok then..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Nice, thanks. :)

And thanks for your awesome work too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
New build with modified kernel

I've only added governors and a scheduler

Good day for me. The wife made pizza and a new PA build to try. Pizza first though. :P

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 PM ----------

It's been normal for me. That is to say, no slow ups. Maybe rebooting the pc (hard boot) will solve it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
pizza first ???

so disappointing :p
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Ben, phone is not boooooting.

I'll re-flash it again.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
lol

I'm a native new yorker, do the math. hehe. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
grr..

you all bother me wh your defective phones ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
a reflash was also not successful... wtf is wrong with the s50?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
that's exactly what i wonder ..

i will try to create a serie of boot.img to test
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
@aleksandar.1

Were you able to reinstall your backup?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Sorry to disapoint you ben but my s50 with ISC bootloader boots almost fine.

It booted fine after flash but when i restore apps and settings through Titanium it stoped booting :-/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
it booted first without restoring ?

were you able to choose governors in the performance menu ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
so.. :

a 2S50 with GB bootloader boots

a S50 with ICS bootloader boots ..

other reports ? aleksandar, what is your serie and bootloader ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Yes, and they worked like a charm. And booted too.

Some app or defenition that i had backed up is causing it to freeze the boot.

I'll try to restore one by one to find out wich one.

Edit: A simple factory reset makes it boot again.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
I want to try it so bad it's killing me (fighting myself hehe) but I saw where someone wasn't able to boot back into recovery to restore.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
it seems it was from a newbie not knowing what has was doing (without offense). but flashing PA with a 5.X recovery was not a good idea
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
I flashed the restore and it boot's just fine when the rom doesn't boot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
True. I forgot that Ben. :o

Well I'm off to the races. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Ok...

I narrowed it down to defenitions.

I restored all the apps and it rebooted fine.

Then i restored the settings and got stuck at the boot again.

Btw, how do i change the bootanimation? I'm getting tired of this one. :-/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
/media/Bootanimation.zip
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Nope, no dice. Like the last release with the modded kernel it never gets past the splash image.

GB bootloader and I guess you can guess the model.

A hint, it's your favorite.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Okay

I'll build a set of boot.IMG, to test some kernel tweaks

Hope my fellows flash addicted will play with them
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
You know I will. I'm sure aleksandar will too. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
i will too :D on s50 last don't boot :D ( doomed ) :laugh:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Ok . . . .

Forget about changing the bootanimation. Stuck! Reflashing!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
I made it!!

I have to restore configurations really slow. And no System configs.

Govs are working fine.

Am i the only one that managed to flash it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
i have a S50 with GB Bootloader. i made three flashes, all stuck at boot :-\

You say that PA with the boot.img provided in zip flashable will work on both ICS and GB bootloader?

Shouldn't u add a separate boot.img for ics/gb bootloader like the case with H1N1 (the first step of install is to choose a bootloader ics/gb).

Just asking, no offense :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
We will see from the coming tests..

2 questions:

What is your favorite gov to use? I'm currently using smartass v2.

Is there anyway to verify my OT version besides the sticker under the battery? Because since my phone came from repair (they switched the board) the sticker doesn't say the version anymore. Before it went to repair i'm shure it was an s50.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
1) not yet defined, as they are no fine tuned

2) no idea :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Ok, thanks anyway.

I'll keep feeding how smartass v2 behave.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
hey, i saw there are few boot-imgs uploaded, but i'm in a rush right now and can't try it. maybe tomorrow or if the world is not gonna end in saturday :D :eek:

I think i will report the same results as sun0s (we both purchased the phones in MKD and are with the same Cu).

And that newbie was me :) Problem solved with fastboot! But after 2 flashes I am still not able open apn to manually write. It crashes every time :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
That's wierd, they're working fine for me.

As for the s50, mine is an s50 and it flashed ok.

Battery is lasting longer. 15 hours and still 50% left. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Do you have GB or ics bootloader?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
well it said 2s50 but if it works on your phone i gonna try this to :D

my post was getting wrong i olny wanted to know if it worked on the normal s50 model, from teh given answer i take it as a yes i use gb bootloader :P i have never had problems with any build excpet teh 5december one.

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

another small question:

do i need gapps 4.1 or gapps 4.2 ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
I only use multipack++ v3

Flash rom, flash multipack and it's good to go.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
what is multipack++
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:

Choose tantrum's express if you're unshure on what to install/uninstall.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
I must have selected the wrong post by accident. Sorry. I was asking mrwargod since he has it flashed on a s50. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
ICS bootloader.

BTW, i've noticed that the rom is a little bit picky with flashes. try booting it before you flash gapps, and only flash either gapps or multipack, not both.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
ICS, I thought so.

Thanks for the advice, but I always boot a new rom without gapps. After I know it'll boot then I flash gapps. It helps with trouble shooting. It's what I do for a living so I'm used to doing things in steps. Good lookin out though. :thumbup:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
"- added flash player for Jelly Bean"

this multipack thing suddenly seems like a really good idea :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
Hi All!

I tried the latest builds of PA, I really want to use it, but there is no available data connection for me. I've tried to recreate apn-s, but it seemed to be read only, when i create one it didn't appeared on the apn list. I tried to copy the original apn list, and set the correct permissions for the file but it didn't worked. I also tried to modify PA's apn list, i wrote the correct values, and saved it, but it didn't worked also.

Anyone can help me with this?

My carrier is Vodafone HU.

Thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
which build are you mentioning ?

sorry, but as i don't have data plan, i cannot test it as i would
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
It doesn't matter which build i am using, or i have used, i cannot use my data connection, it doesn't works on 3g and also gsm networks.

If you need some logs I can run them, I tried to search for any errors, but i cannot found them. I want to help you to fix this, but i don't know how can I help you :/.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
it seems that most of the users have 3G data connection.. can other confirm that ??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
But how can they have 2G/3G data connection?

And just a suggestion, i saw that you built a new kernel, which doesn't boots for many people. If you want to boot the kernel with the older bootloader, you have to change the MACH-ID to the old one, which is 100700. You have to compile the kernel for each bootloaders.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
well mine works
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
How can you make it work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
i've got the GB bootloader, and the kernel boots.

and other with a ICS kernel seems to have boot too ?

we need more ppl to know exactly what i have to do and what is the variable..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
Mine works too. 2G and 3G. And i'm about to make a full day with 1 charge. Sweet!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
i actually know a magical unicorn :P

but here is teh real reason: i just go to settings,->wireless & networks ->mobile networks->Names &accespoints then push the most left icon on your button bar -> new apn then you can add one and activate it :P

at least thats how its works for me
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
I installed your latest ROM and it boots perfectly.

So if you want to compile the kernel for each bootloader, you have to modify this file: kernel/arch/arm/tools/mach-types

for ICS loader: msm7x30_surf	MACH_MSM7X30_SURF	MSM7X30_SURF	2679

for GB loader: msm7x30_surf	MACH_MSM7X30_SURF	MSM7X30_SURF	100700

@maka33: I tried that, but it's not working, and the system can't save my configuration.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
Very Strange but i must tell you honestley that i of all alcetall users has the less trouble, actually almoste verthing is working here. and god NO i dont know why. and where in teh zip file is this kernel file?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
So when I typing my carrier APN i am facing these errors: http://pastebin.com/xQt3Pejv
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Confirmed that data works. I don't have very many problems either. Matter of fact this is the 1st kernel that won't boot at all. As far as the data thing goes, sorry but it's either the phone or the user on this one. Too many of us have it working for it to be the rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qltsar:
Yes, I know, so thats the reason why it really annoys me...this is my 4th OT-995 phone, and I have tested PA ROM-s 3 of them, and the data connection didn't worked at all, so this is not a hardware error.

"Error TelephonyProvider 576 Failed setting numeric 'null' to the current operator" reffers to: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17056651&postcount=574

[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
Big edit, multipack does not work her on the new pa release
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
@ qltsar: try like i do, backup your apn settings from an ISC rom and restore them in PA. I use TB for that and never had a problem with the APN's.

@ Maka33: What do you mean multipack don't work? It worked fine for me. O_o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
i tried a express install i got the litte ! mark it wont boot but i just used the old fashion gapps and have no problems
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mrwargod:
That's weird. It worked fine for me everytime. Both with the express mode and with the custom choice mode. O_o

@ tumaini: you? the flash addict? don't want to flash the oficial ICS just for the sake of updating the bootloader? weird!
