I managed to make a successful build for the p3110, using mka bacon, but when I look in my zip file, it does not contain ROMcontrol.apk or PAprefs.apk. What to do?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
What was your base configuration?? cm is it.??

Try userdebug build..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
I used pac sources, and lunched cm_p3110_userdebug, and then ran mka bacon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbucz24:
Are you allowed to have paprefs outside a non-pa ROM? I've read they privatized the apk.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
But the ROMcontrol is not in the zip, so something is wrong
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
its closed source so isnt found in your zip file..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
So...I have basiccaly compiled cm10 with pac sources?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
no just those 2 apks r missing that all
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
So if I put ROMcontrol in zip, it will appear in settings? And then specify that PAprefs is not included, and they have to find it themself?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbucz24:
The only way to really have them is have an official device or port it to yours. Meaning, you can't build from source
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
It would be ideal for you to approach the pa team regarding this..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
So this is a 100+ post thread where you teach me how to build from source, without mentioning that it can not be built from source?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
Ok let me explain it to you you have built the whole ROM from source except for some two apps which the team doesn't want to go open source source.. So i asked you to approach the pa team regarding those two apks... By the the way you have compiled PAC or pa?? I If it's PAC then I think the pa A features are cherry picked and integrated to the framework so those to apps might be missing... Nevertheless thanks for reading my essay hope to read your reply on this..

You misunderstood my meaning...I meant like speed_ bot said that the source for those specific apks were not included in their github.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadCobbler:
ParanoidPreferences.apk won't be in the rom and Moles will no doubt say no to you putting it in the rom if you were going to release it (been there, seen it and done it lol... I've got PACman roms released on 4 different devices... one being Note 2 ;))

As far as RomControl that should be in the rom as its still open source. Once you have everything synced and in place and you have added the device you are building for in vendorsetup.sh in all 3 roms CM, PA and PAC and make sure you when you go into vendor/pa/products and vendor/pac/products that you have a file for your device and that your device is added into AndroidProducts.mk in the same folder.

Navigate to the root of the rom and there is no need to lunch or make bacon just type this command ./build-pac.sh <device name> as that command lunches the device for you... Fairly easy once you've done it a couple of times :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbucz24:
really?? what the hell? so I assume then that this is also the case for any other similar rom that uses multiple setups?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadCobbler:
If you're on about paranoid preferences.apk then yeah, moles said that because they've spent so long making it, they only want it to go in Paranoid Android and can only guarantee how its going to work in Paranoid Android and don't want it to go in any other rom... Which is understandable because it is their app. He did give an alternative on their github but it was for ICS and would need updating to Jellybean...

Ok.. I am noob. But here is what I've.

I got the new 4.2 takju image from google and followed a very good thread here about how to install it and it worked perfectly. The only thing that is not working is Proximity sensor during Skype calls and Google Talk calls. I really can't understand this but this is the problem I've.

I flashed it twice with takju and it didn't work and installed yajku too and still not working. I am noticing minimal amount of reports about this but over the internet. But no solutions yet.

Hope someone would help us :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] likebutta:
Yes, please check out my thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2006783

Fresh install, factory resets, the works. Still have the problem. Proximity sensor turns the screen off but the dial pad or even the end call button are active and are pressed by my cheek. It pretty much kills 4.2 for me and I am just about to go back to 4.1.2.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I am running completely stock 4.2 tajku

Just so you know, Google is too retarded to even align the text in the app launcher properly. Go look at it, none of the text is aligned. This is exactly why iOS is polished, and Android is a construction zone.

I hadn't noticed since I haven't had app icons and folders on the same screen (til I tried it just now).

No it may not be a big deal to many but it is still a really silly bug and how could the devs miss something like that?

Using a third party ROM or launcher should not be needed to have text labels lining up.

Seems to be an Android 4.2 bug since the Nexus 7 has exactly the same issue (though not as noticeable).

This is a problem on Jelly Bean across the board; happens on Galaxy Nexus as well. NOT UNIQUE TO N4.

Group icons always have the text 1-2 pixels below other non group icons, the group icon size is 1-2 pixels larger... Either Google needs to not make group icons larger or push the text 1-2 pixels down on other icons.

This is already reported to Google some time ago and marked as a defect but no work done : http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34244

[Nexus 4 General] TheBishopOfSoho:
A folder icon and an app icon are the same things. They are indicators for apps. They share other characteristics, share tge same space on homepage and folders inherit their contents icons to create a hybrid icon. They tell you that if you press this, you know what will happen. From a design standpoint, having the icon text at different levels doesn't seem right. Yes its a minor issue but my post was tongue in cheek, with a somewhat honest undertone.

In reality there are other things in Android that are worse, like the seemingly random and non standard menu icon positions in many apps, even in Google apps. Sometimes its on top, sometimes on the bottom. Same with copy paste text bar. The icon issue merely highlights a design and usability (read: a polished experience) issue that has held android back somewhat.

I've been an Android user since day 1 of the original nexus release, and this N4 is the best phone I've ever had, but I still think, in an open source program like this that everyone can and should constructively criticise any and all parts or something that fail to meet standards. That is how progress is driven.

That's why there is a thread dedicated to this!
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
We agree to disagree. I do not think of this as a bug or a defect. Having an icon for a single so and having am icon for a directory that contains multiple asps are surely different and should look different to make the user aware. If they were identical how would you know the difference?

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] DjeMBeY:
Not much going on in GT-i9305 section so let see what this phone can really do...

All kinds of Speed Tests, Benchmarks and Battery Stats are welcome ;)

Network: 3G or 4G???

Just wondering how it goes on DC-HSPA+??? Here in UK, Three is fastest so far... I'm getting speeds 15-25Mbps DL / up to 4.5Mbps UL in many places!! :D Who need expensive LTE with crazy data capping (500MB - £36/pm) and speeds 10-20Mbps... Joke...

To check what kind of 3G connection you have while testing:

1: dial *#0011# (phone will go in to Service Mode)

2: press home button

3: open and run SpeedTest

4: press&hold home button and switch back to Service Mode... ;)

5: on the bottom of screen look for "DC_HSPA+ : 1(enabled) 0(disabled)"

Battery:

Many people reported bad battery life but I'm very happy with it so I'll share some of my tricks how to get more juice....

My current set up: Pandoriam ROM v6.6, latest Perseus Kernel: no UV, no OC, no tweaks, Modem: BUALI6, Network: 3UK (DC-HSPA)

1. Custom ROM & kernel is recommended but NOT essential ;) (most of them includes battery tweaks also they bloat free)

2. Install BBS and check what's drinking your juice... Some of apps are heavy drinkers (Facebook, Twitter etc....) so keep eye on battery after you install new app(s). Don't use Juice Defender, it makes things worse.

3. Disable Google Now & Locations (main juice drinker)

4. Install "Fast Dormancy Toggle" from Play Store and disable it. It safe to use. If you don't use 4g, change Network Mode to WCDMA only. BTW bad signal reception draining more juice as well.

5. Keep screen brightness on manual, as low as possible... obviously ;)

6. Use inverted apps and dark wallpaper if possible, stay away from live wallpapers...

7. Only If you know what you doing, install app called" NoBloat Free" or any other similar app and disable/freeze unimportant processes draining your battery. (Exchange and Samsung Push Services are heavy drinkers)

8. AutoSync & NFC - OFF!!

9. Use Original Samsung 1A charger, don't use your laptop to charge phone....

10. Keep WiFi ON only if you need it. To make things easy, in Advanced WiFi settings, we have WiFi Timer. (can be used to keep it ON/OFF automatically, through the night for example)
