hi all and ben i like to inform u that i test this fix for proximity sensor or my bad, thought on led light blinks on missed call etc.. sorry not so good at this :P and work so use it in next build.

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1320631&d=1347429617
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
thank, but on the coming release, the proximity sensor works without problem.

i'm working on the compass now ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
hehe no thank you for your effort :) i love this release hehe, i use it all time :P
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
happy to know :)

any help is welcome if you want

sensors are a bit messy in comparison with all the msm7630 stuff i can find (mainly xperia projects.)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
may be u could use some thing from this model i see they have same architecture as 995:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
thanks, i had this in my radar yet ; and it's really the same basis, but their soft is so well organized in comparison with ours..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
hello everybody,

not so much news recently,i was trying to have the compass working.

currently, i'm not successful..

here's my current logs :

- i have enabled the akmd8975 in the kernel, which was not

-i have called the service, as it is done in other device with a simple

service akmd8975 /system/bin/8975

- i've added it in the vendor setup to have to file extracted from ICS copied to my build

but nothing came out of that.

any idea is welcome :)

For now, a new build is out on http://goo.im/BENETNATH :)

Changelog updated
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Thanks man. I'll be just as glad as you when this is in its finished state. But for now your updated builds are very much welcome.

pa_cocktail-2.51-29NOV.2012-083204 on its way. :)

Sorry to ask, but what's it do? I only ask I don't know what to look for as far as rom proformance.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] darksnoopy:
Thanks so much for working for a stable and smooth rom!

I have a question though. When in Gingerbread, android terminal listed a device with driver "/dev/pn544" (NFC)

Is there really an NFC chip in 995 and can it be activated?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
it's the compass/magnetometer
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Ahhhhh, okay. Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
it might be a reality about the nfc.

unfortunately, i don't have anything that would allow me to work on it, as NFC card or device..

FYI, a OT-996 has also been released, and it's exactly the same as ours, excepted it has a NFC software..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
getting stuck on boot loader any one else experience same issue with latest build?

edit: just as i thought is kernel issue i put the kernel from previous release and boots

Use this gapps the 4.2 are not compatible : http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

: incoming call screen work perfect now, gps perfect very fast, led notification works ( blinks on missed call, dunno for sms and others ill test it soon), proximity i guess matter of kernel bcz i change it :P any way , good progress :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Yeah. It won't boot. I thought it was me. :)

I guess you broke something Ben. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
you sure its 100% the same? it should be ours + NFC HARDWARE

thy giveth hope...dont do this to me ben :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
here is a mirror

http://code.google.com/p/pa-ot-995/downloads/list

i'm leaving goo.im .. too much bugs

the release runs on my phone currently so only an archive issue it seems.

sorry about that !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
No apology necessary man. :)

It's cool that you guys take the time to mess with this stuff.

depends which 1 i just test 4.2 latest 29/11 a lot force close may be the one from before posted at OP are good as described dunno :P we continue testing :D

im still kind a new in android things trying to learn more, but im ( was ) :D good at unix/linux thought little rusty but my memory getting refreshed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
removing the two files on goo and google code.

seems the archive has been corrupted during the usb transfer to my laptop.

reuploading currently..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
about 4.2 apps, i'm really not convinced currently.

not so much stable..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Okay, I'm a bit confused. Are you going to post another link, or reuse the 2nd one?

---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

I don't know. Looks like I'm going fishing. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
i think some thing is wrong with kernel the archive it self is good. i try all time same stuck at boot loader
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
i just reuploaded a file.

i've tested it before upload on a fresh reinstal with full wipe and it worked.

can you confirm the upload is ok now ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Same here. That's why I asked about the reupload. I've tried 2 links with the same results.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
i mean, i've deleted the google code version and reuploaded it, so different file but same name
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
I just dl'ed it directly to my phone this time.

3rd time trying to flash today's release, same again. I get stuck before booting into system at splash.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] moomoon03:
hello man , proximity sensor work like a charm in this new release but now we can't have hd(720p) recording with all camera apk

do you now why?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Yes

Did you read the changelog on op
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HoScHaKaL:
hey ben r latest release flash working on now ?

and camera video record 720p on it ?

and my bt not work cm10 roms like iuss and yours bt send but not recieve on pc and mobile :S
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
got the same problem!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
ok, i'll release a new build, may be early next week with the old kernel. i don't like this idea of having different behaviour with the same model..

might be different version of the same phone ? with/without some hardware component ??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
could it be the bootloader or whatever? i read somewhere that for some roms you needs GB version or ICS specifically...I have no idea which is mine though. (sorry if im talking nonsense :p)

maybe im doing something wrong? :\
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
if you did not update your phone trough the official ICS process of alcatel, you have the GB bootloader, as i have
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
I didn't :)

Also, I can't flash AOKP nor cyanogenmod anymore :eek:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Hmmm, gonna have to check that

out.

On CM10. No problems with flashing or booting. :)

Back to PA nov.23rd release.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
That is really weird. I tried everything but it fails to flash every single time.

Im stuck with a paranoid version that doesn't have data (can't configure APN) :(

edit: nevermind, the menu is bugged, after several attempts APN menu finally appeared
[Miscellaneous Android Development] qsmyle:
ICS users!

If you need BLURLESS, FOCUSED CAMERA, use LgCamera app from Google Play, and set "scane mode" to "action" or "sport"!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
New build with older kernel

is your LATEST built better then the other one??

i havent updated in a long time wich one must i take??

---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

also android 4.2.1 is comming??

are you planning to update to this??

there are no gapps for it yet...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
The latter the better :)

Paranoid is currently splitting, so now switch of version now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
thanks for the advice i am flashing it right now :D

awesome that you still continue this at least till one full complete ROM :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Just saw the new link you posted a little while ago Ben. Thanks. Same thing, just with the older kernel?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HoScHaKaL:
ı got 30 nov build

proxomity and light sensor working good

bluetooth working send and recv

and ı think one problem on video record cant set video quality like 720p think it s record like qvga quaility on back version 720p record working great whts change ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Wanted to give a try on some changes, but not better

It will be fixed on next one

For people with troubles on the release of the 29, it seems that the new one works well :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Just one thing, if you have working boot on the 29's release, can you try to connect a hdd and write NTFS ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
i can confirm the same with the 29 release.... got stuck at bootloader logo... i just downloaded the 30nov and i'm about to flash it. I will post my feedback in few days :) Tnx Ben,

edit:

which gapps should i flash? Are 4.2 working?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
On my point of view, gapps 4.2 are still bugged..

Next release will be similar but with correct settings on quality of picture
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
It's released

I'll wait upon more feedbacks before moving on new things

What is the priority for the next step ?

Battery life ; hardware decoding ; fluidity ?

From what I read on the different forums, most users are happy and unhappy people are often non-readers or lack some basic use of android

I might work on kernel, to add governors and other stuff, but the failure to boot on previous release bothers me a lot as my phone was never stuck.

Waiting for your comment, is the current release of 1st dec usable on daily basis?

Edit : by the way, lgcamera recommended on the other topic is really a good one
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
Yeap is usable on daily basis, just installed and some apps i use regularly, so far so good. Things ill notice during using it all time ill wrote :) Thanks Ben !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mustafah822000:
Finally I came back from long working week, I download the last version and I will try it now and feedback ASAP.

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

MMMMMMMM.....

First thanks BEN for your efforts, and good work. Secondly The result for my test:

1- no stuck on first boot.

2- camera working fine.

3- video working but the resolution is not fine.

4- Panorama camera flasher when capturing pictures, but saving working and the picture saved successfully.

5- USB Mass storage working after uninstalling the drivers.

6- proximity sensor working fine.

7- light sensor working.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Try lgcamera for video

You can force the resolution

Not sure if it works really but...:)

Anyway, it seems like a good feedback !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mustafah822000:
GPS working sooo fast with me. lgCamera working fine, thanks

I will use the release and waiting for new update for magnetic field....

nice boot pic
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
Hardware decode please!

Dont know about battery life yet but this ROM sure is fluid!

By the way, i turned on gps, told a destination to maps and it got my position instantaneously. SWEET!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
Hm battery life seems to be quite bad actually.aprox 15 hours out of normal usage, used to last 30.

Otherwise though, id recomend this rom for everyday usage, stable and really fast. Much,much better than stock for sure!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
For battery life, you can select a different governor like on demand

You can also decrease the CPU speed at rest to 245

In addition, WiFi is maintained always on by default

And finally, a battery calibration gave me a real better result, especially on the low-level part.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
About battery life, with 30nov release i had two charges since yesterday, and atm i'm charging it again...

About to flash the 1dec release (Ben you updates are express :D can't follow you hehe)...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
latest build, gov on demand cpu min 245 ( working smooth ) p.s i think the percentage isn't shown correct vary so fast may be due to the thing that battery data isn't available.

calibration tests:

internet - 30 min : 6%

video - 30 min: 9%

music - 44 min : 3%

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things i notice that don't work are battery data stats, also searching for mobile networks ( providers ) Available networks - Searching - Error while searching for networks.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
on the topic mentioned, they are flashing a new firmware to gain additional points.

intersting but frankly other things to work on before ; it's quite a huge work !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HoScHaKaL:
bluetooth problem come again 1 dec version :( aaarggh
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
I have on demand, wifi is always off, 3g I use internet commander to turn 3g on when the screen is off for 1min each 15mins. I always calibrate the battery when i switch roms.

Before, with governor on performance (everything else the same) i had 30 hours now i can barely make it 20 ;)

by the way, anyone else noticing there are no email notifications? tried both stock and gmail apps for this and the phone never tells me if i have new email |:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
how did u managed to get 30h of battery on this rom?

How much do u use the phone? Only for clock or u use it to make calls etc? :D

I had only 8h or 10h at most!

Please answer :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
Do you ever lock your phone? xD

I'm at 50%, phone is turned on for 13h12min. I sent a couple of emails, made four 1-2min calls, sent a few texts and browsed the internet for about 20mins. some other random stuff too but not much. Busy work days :)

this is odd however, usually it doesnt last this long but its been in 50% for about one or two hours. is this battery calibration app i am using a hoax? D: battery levels are reading really weird

ps: i never had 30 hours on this rom, only 20 ;) (which aint that bad actually!)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Carlosmff:
It's impossible to have 20 hours of battery life with this ROM... I use mine for a few calls, read work emails, read personal emails with GMail, read some books, and most of time is locked... and I need to charge battery 2 times a day... besides, it's charging all night and from 01h00 to 07h30, power management shuts down wifi, mobile network, sync, screen light, reduces sound and remains phone calls...

About notifications, I have Maildroid and GMail and get all notifications for both.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
i get all notifications without trouble too

and i charge my phone once per day.

it might be some daemon running on background, need to have time to logcat (i don't have this time..)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mokka1:
alright ;)

one thing, i use the APP internet commander. it switches off my 3G when i lock the phone. then, for every 15min afterwards, it will turn 3g on for 1 minute. i guess my email app will check for email on its own, which normally will result in checking for email when 3g is off.

you guys know a way arround this? not the proper topic, but still ;x
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
Hi,

can all people ther emake a feedback on the new release i made on google code ?

it has a modified kernel, seems that one user has trouble with it, but on mine it's working really well (you ca nput smartass V2 with the minimal frequency on idle)

need feedbacks to know if there are plenty of users stuck or not on boot load.

DO A FULL WIPE/FACTORY RESET please

in your report, can you write down the type of phone (behind the battery)

995X-2CALFR1-2S50 is mine
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
Model : 995X-2ACFMK1-S50

5 dec build , stuck at boot loader
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
here is my doomed user :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Carlosmff:
What changed since last one?? Only Kernel?

Can I flash it over 2.51 or need to do something special? Do I need to reinstall all my apps?

I'm super happy with 2.51 but battery need some work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:
Cu: 995X-2CVDMK1-S50

I'm stuck on Alcatel splash screen... I tried with pulling off the battery, but no luck :P

Maybe a transfer issue like before?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sun0s:
no its a kernel issue but its strange that works at ben`s device and won`t on ours,thats why we comparing the model serials ( 2S50 ben`s, others S50 only ) i hope more gonna wrote their too, to see if there is more different ).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Carlosmff:
Where are you guys looking for model number???

Mine only says OT-995

I'm with PA 2.51

Edit: Already saw my model number and finishes in S50.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
No go on Dec. 5th release here also.

995X-xxxxxxx-S50. Last three are same as the others that have reported no gos so far.

Going back to Dec 1st release.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] v1c3:
Well, mine is 995X-2ACHFR1-1S50 and stuck at Alcatel screen :-\

Previous release, with old kernel, was great, but battery drain a little too high and one unexpected reboot yesterday...

I confirm 3G data works (here on orange network, just had to define APN)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HoScHaKaL:
my phone stuck on alcatel screen too :(

995X-2CALTR1-S50 under y battery

and flashing 1 dec verson again

m trying 30 nov 1 dec version bt send but not recieved any one give me solution ??

m come h1n1 v3 rom again :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
When you initiate the BT transfer , you can try to make your device discoverable.

I've got a 2S50 model and the last release works well

I wonder if i'm the only une with it and what could be the differences
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Last release didn't transfer data via bluetooth either. And still no audio.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maka33:
android 4.2.1

are you going to upgrade your ROM to 4.2.1??

[Miscellaneous Android Development] warsylep:
Can't flash PA version from 5th December.

Got an "symlink: some symlinks failed - Status 7" error.

Probably related to the fact that i can't format nor unmount /system on cwm recovery?

EDIT: Uops, my bad. Need to learn how to properly read instructions. Was using wrong recovery.

Now, to the test!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aleksandar.1:

on pa rom now bt works ıf u cant revieve files when someone send u file open bt settings and touch search 1-2-3 and u can see notification on status bar:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
ok, not so much news to bring.

i've tried a lot of thing to get compass/magnetometer working

i had magnetometer without compass, which is quuite useless.

from my poll in different topics, it seems there are at least 3 different version of our phone S50, 1S50 and 2S50

mine is a 2S50 and it accepts all the kernel i've built. but it seems it's not the case for the S50 phone.

that bugs me a bit, as i want to work to improve my phone mainly, and that my work can be shared, but if i do that, i'll have to either let the S50/1S50 fall down ; or release twice my work ; with or w/o kernel mod..

if only some other dev might join, it could be easier as i'm really a young padawan on that, and my learning curve is really slow on my POV.

anyway ; paranoid team is currently split out, with AOSPA (the new path of the lead dev) and CM-PA (the older one, which is the base of the releases you have)

there is one github which maintains the CM-PA (Utacka) but i can't track his progress easily.

so, no news but just to keep you inform of my thinkings ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
Yes.

I'm using pa now. Still the same thing. I can't access the pa menu.

Also, I was wrong about my seeing debugging being selected. It was notify about debugging I saw. I made the selection and the phone charges fine
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
no, i'll work on it once i've got a bit of time.

sad that's not working.. you cannot see PA in action
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tumaini418:
You should look into sounds also. Some notifications work while others don't. Also when selecting a notification tone, the sound preview sometimes won't work. In which case the corresponding notification will fail as well.

EDIT: GPS working. Maybe a little laggy. It's cloudy so that may account for it.

EDIT 2: Camera and video capture both working. Both zoom and touch to focus function correctly.

EDIT 3: Music playback is fine.

I used Player Pro.

I use K-9 mail client and it works, but if I have it open and it downloads email it crashes. Froze the phone once. Notification tones don't work at all. I'll see how the default email client works tomorrow.

The ROM as a whole is still smooth and very fast. As with iuss's CM10, I haven't had any problems with random reboots or freezing. Though it hangs during booting once in a while. But that didn't happen until I installed some apps. I don't know which one is causing it cause I installed like 10 all at once. But I have a feeling its Ivona Voice TTS.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DennisJKA:
I tested it today, and I have to say, that it runs really smooth and fast. You did fantastic work!

Even though it is Alpha release, it works like a charm.

But at this point of development, I think i will go back to ICS, until the video playback issue is fixed.

But exept this issue, it runs very good! Keep your great work :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] deadpunk:
Hello, Paranoid Android is a great rom, used it once on my sgs2. I liked the tablet UI :D

Will try your next build for sure...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BENETNATH:
hey, what's that !

a new release.

all feedbacks are welcome (PA settings should work now)

to have charging work, you must activate USB debugging in developers options.
