Yes. Github shows no changes since I built.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
Yes. I'm using PA's manifest, and I've only changed to pull in additional features or fix bugs. I'll look at making a flashable zip for camera. I'm tired of dealing with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kazba1626:
For some reason when you enable search button in pie it fixed the disappearing back button in pie.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmoG530:
It's always been that way. I don't know why though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
How about the MMS package, you guys rather have stock PA or CM modded to work with PA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
CM modded please. Thank you fairct.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Been using pie since the 2.99 builds and have never seen the back button disappear. I always keep the search button disabled too. The only bug I've ever really had with pie is where it stops responding and need to turn my screen off and back on to get it back. That has mostly stopped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
The same one you're using now works great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Same here, not a single issue with buttons disappearing.

Just flashed the latest build and it's working awesome so far. I was having problems with Wi-Fi tether on the regular PA builds and this seems to have fixed it! It's also awesome to have the LTE toggle back. My only wish would be some kind of ota or updated app specifically for your builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
If the builds were on goo.im, the goomanager app would be able to do this with a few build.prop changes. However I don't think that one will recognize alternative gapps locations, and goo has been having some issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I don't have Goo keys, and I'm not part of PA. I just post my builds on d-h because it offers free hosting and good speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
Please don't even consider changing a thing Fairct with how and when you post a new build. You have been more than generous with your time and efforts. It is not too much to simply check in on this thread to see if a new build is up.

On a separate note, what has been the consensus regarding the CM camera and MMS apk idea you had?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
Looks like people want stock camera and cm modded mms. I've already modified my manifest to build PA camera, so the next build will have it. You can use whatever gapps you want at that point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Link_of_Hyrule:
I know goo has been having problems so that's fine I'm just surprised that there isn't another app that would just use whatever host you tell it. Anyways keep up the great work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vone:
speaking of goo.im, the download of the gapps is going at a blazing...4 kbps

It's just the same as the regular PA gapps right? I can grab it from any other mirror?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p34rp34r:
i should clarify my position on this...i like having the normal gapps since it moves a lot of apps out of /data and into /system but i also like having the CM camera with all the extra goodies. i would be ecstatic if that could be a flashable on top of the normal gapps. i love this tweaked aospa either way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I don't think a flashable zip would be hard. It would just flash a lib file and gallery2, I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
I have a stock 4.2 fishable zip. Is that what we are after? Also. I don't remember where I saw it.. But what about an MMS app that allows check box for multiple contacts?!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonbarsinistr:
I'm running the. 6/17 3.6 build with simple gapps, and it's running great! Overall the Toro is handling halo much more smoothly than my N7!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p34rp34r:
+1...i can't figure out why the n7 struggles so much w/ halo and the gnex is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I for one would like to try the CM camera but as long as the camera works and my MMS works I'm happy. Never had any luck with the PA MMS app so in half with this set up. Again, thank you for sharing your work Fairct
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
As for now, I am using the new stock camera that google had made for the Playstore phones. An apk of the file is available at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2340858

Sweet, hows it working? I'm thinking of giving it a try when I get off work.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
Works great. Has photosphere, panorama, video and camera function. It does not have the HD setting that CM has. (I never used that anyway). The nice thing is you can press the volume key up or down to take a picture.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Anyone able to do a dirty flash from the 6/17 build to the 6/23 build? I get stuck on the boot animation forever. I'll try a clean flash later when I get some more time, but wanted to see if anyone else is having the same issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ABN85:
Anyone know how to edit carrier text on PA? That's one of the features I miss when running this ROM.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
It's a device overlay file called eri.xml. I added the overlay for it to say Verizon Wireless. As far as then modifying it from that, I'm not sure. You can decompile framework and modify that file, but I think it will still get overwritten by mine. I think there may be an app for that, or... someone else can chime in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
Uploaded this file the other day, but forgot to post it here. This is a flashable zip for CM camera. It removes Gallery2.apk and GalleryGoogle.apk, before adding its own Gallery2.apk. It also removes libjni_mosaic.so (which is basically the camera app) from /system/lib and replaces it with the CM version.

Have you tried the new 4.3 AOSP camera? It's pretty sweet.

With all the Camera talk... Any chance we can get cm camera quick toggle!!??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jreyno10:
Yeah the little things Google changed made it so much better. I've been using it since it leaked and I love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonzsoul:
thanks [MENTION=3813155]fairct[/MENTION]! I just wanted to let you know that the zip didn't delete the existing camera app I had. I'm not sure if it's because I flashed the new camera apk that didn't come with your ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
If it was named something other than what I said was removed, then that explains why it didn't get deleted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonzsoul:
That makes sense. For what it's worth, when I installed the new AOSP camera apk, it deleted the camera that came with the ROM. I'm not sure if that means the new AOSP camera is named the same as the old one within your ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
That would make sense. It's also possible my flashable zip isn't working correctly. I'm not all that great at creating them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
Worked fine for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p34rp34r:
+1 worked for me as well. although i have to say, the HDR was underwhelming. seems like it just make everything really flat, colorwise. not what i was expecting for HDR. or maybe i just don't really get what HDR was supposed to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
HDR is supposed to bring out detail, especially in dark areas like shadows. It takes several shots at different light exposures and then mixes them together to produce the effect. This can cause things to look worse depending on the situation. Also you need a tripod or an extremely steady hand and still subject as it takes several shots in order to produce the effect.

---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:01 PM ----------

I should add it also helps when there are parts of the photo that are too bright, not just dark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Link_of_Hyrule:
Does HDR even work on the Galaxy Nexus hardware wise? I'm pretty sure that it's not a feature even supported on the Gnex camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvilDobe:
It works just, imho, not very well. Photosphere > HDR

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I've gotta do some tweaking with my repos, but I'll have a build up today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
Just curious, is there an easy way for us add the LTE toggle to official PA? Can we pull it from fairct's build and add it to official PA?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tone_Capone:
Hey guys. I was having issues with settings crashing when uninstalling apps. Anyone else having this issue?

Thanks in advance

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EAK128:
Nope, not having any issues like that. Running very smooth for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I saw a CM fix for this. I'll have to check the PA repo to see if it got pulled in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Just tried uninstalling apps from both Settings->Apps and from the app drawer and no crashes, sorry. Been running great since I flashed it last night.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
Same here. I'm loving the new build. However, my battery is running down faster with the same kernel (AK 256) and same settings. Any ideas? It is not enough faster to worry about, but I would like to know why.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I checked the repo, and PA squashed the fix commit into the commit for Privacy Guard, so your issue shouldn't be happening. I bet it was an issue on the previous build I posted though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Mine doesn't seem to be going down noticeably faster and I'm using AK SKL 256 as well. I'm using ondemandplus for the governor and that helps a bit, which are you using? My battery life has always sucked though so I'm probably not a good one to base off of.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I wanted to get a build posted yesterday for you guys, to include the patch for the android exploit http://bluebox.com/corporate-blog/bluebox-uncovers-android-master-key/

Unfortunately, since I'm such a noob at git, my repos are hosed. Some of the things I cherry-picked are now getting pulled in by PA and I'm having issues getting it all squared away. It will probably be the weekend before I can get everything straightened out. Sorry for the delay!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
No big deal, whenever you get it out is fine.

Sent from my AK Skull powered AOSPA 3.65 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonbarsinistr:
We appreciate your efforts!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
Last night I semi-accidentally blew away my local repo. Got it all pulled down again, and I'll start cherry-picking the proper stuff. The biggest issue was PA pulling in some of the same stuff I had, and giving me merge conflicts. I could have just handled it and kept going, but I wanted a cleaner solution...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cambunch:
This may sound weird to some of you, but I actually don't like the Halo feature. Is there a way to remove the toggle from the status bar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
I've... actually been running CM for a little while now. Since late June I believe. It stems primarily from a feature standpoint, and I also didn't see the benefit to Halo. I do build it myself, just because. I'll keep building PA for you guys though, as long as you keep wanting to use my builds, anyway
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cambunch:
I have been running CM since the OG Incredible came out. I love the work they put into it, and I try to rip as much out as I can to run in my PA setup. However, once I got the Toro with the large screen size, the per-app DPI became such a valuable feature for me. The per-app color is also a nice touch to prevent screen burn-in, as I had a minor amount running CM despite running proper screen settings.

I would recommend you continue your PA builds for as long as you are willing, it seems like most of the people on XDA prefer them. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
There are two reasons that I have stuck with PA so long.

1. The per app dpi settings is great for me.

2. Fairct's builds.

Enough said....

Thanks Fairct!

Please keep building. I use halo a lot. It's probably the most useful thing that's come along in android for me since notification toggles.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
I would be very sad to lose your builds, but it would definitely be understandable. Thanks for all your hard work and effort, your builds are the best!

Also, if it's the cm features you're missing, have you considered rolling your own hybrid ROM? Something like PACMAN or JellyBeer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Visegrad:
Wow! This runs brilliantly. Them you team PA and fairct for all your amazing work.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairct:
It isn't very hard for me to maintain the two builds, really. I modified the way I was doing the PA builds to get my changes on top of them easier, so all is running smoothly for now. And I'm building CM straight with almost no modifications (disabled a few apks).

Right now, I'm enjoying the polish of CM. I had been on PA for around 6 months at least, so maybe I'm just enjoying the 'newness' of something different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I used CM back on my incredible and incredible 2, the I discovered the first betas of Paranoidandroid (1.97,1.98 etc). They weren't that smooth, especially on the droid incredible 2 but the options were amazing. I have since then never even been curious of another rom. PA is one of many reasons why I will not use anything but Google Flagship Nexus Devices ever again.

I have an issue that is driving me nuts, and I can't figure out if it's PA related or not.

Usually, at least once a day, my sleep time change will change to 15 seconds. I always set it to 1 minute, but somehow it keeps changing back. It has been happening to me on PA for as long as I can remember, but that doesn't mean it is an issue with PA itself, it could be an app as well. However, I keep my phone setup pretty lightweight and don't use many apps that I wouldn't deem as "quality" apps.

Has anyone else heard of this happening? Is there a way to check what apps have access to changing my sleep settings without going in one-by-one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] error629:
The only thing I could think is to first do a backup through titanium backup of your apps. Wipe everything besides SD card then do a clean install. Haven't had anything like that happen.

On a side note, I had a coworker ask me what was the reason for rooting a phone. I was almost speechless. I showed him my nexus and that has turned into a three day conversation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cambunch:
That's the thing, whenever I upgrade I usually do a fresh install and never restore settings from my Google account. I only restore user app data within TiBu, hence why I'm not sure if its something with the ROM or not. Maybe one of my apps isn't playing nicely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] error629:
Maybe it is an app. You could use appdragon (from the play store for free) to list all your apps and post here. Maybe someone from the community could help pinpoint the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wastedlife:
Have any sort of battery-saving apps like juice defender?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
I've been having problems with twitter lately. The app will not always update and go into a battery sucking loop. Also, I've heard the new Google maps has reset some people's settings. YMMV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cambunch:
I have been using Greenify since the previous Maps version came out that was causing some wake locks. I uninstalled it to see if that helps.

It has been going on since before the latest Maps. Luckily I do not have any battery issues, just this setting that is mysteriously changing.

Is there a way to see any of the settings that Google syncs from your phone via desktop? Perhaps there is something strange with my account and when it syncs it is changing my sleep time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parkson:
I've only had apps like Juice Defender, Battery Doctor, or similar change that setting without my knowing (before going into app and reconfiguring setup)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sickopsycho:
Hello all! Quick question regarding battery life- I just got an extended battery and it seems to last a bit longer than the regular one, but my battery life is still only so-so compared to a lot of people who I read get like 4 hours of screen on time and 24 hours without a charge. Granted, I use my phone fairly heavily but the best I'm getting is around 2 hours of screen on time, maybe an hour or a little more of talk time (phone) and about 14 hours total before I'm needing a charge pretty bad. I do currently have ~120 apps installed- but I'm using PA with the latest AK kernel and have tweaked the settings to reccomended performance/battery savings settings. Anyone else getting comparable results or do I have a bum phone? These seem to be the same on a fresh install (hard reset) so i dont think it's a rogue app or anything. Also I have used cpuspy to confirm that I am achieving deep sleep when dormant. I'm not complaining so much- my old droidx wouldnt last all day without a charge- this one at least I dont have to worry about carrying a cord with me when I leave. =) I just get jealous when my girlfriend is only charging her phone every 3rd day. of course I would rather have to keep my phone plugged in at all times than use an iphone but still...:rolleyes:

What's your brightness settings [MENTION=795606]sickopsycho[/MENTION]

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rmonjay:
That sounds about right to me. I can only get those 4/24 kind of statistics if I am in test mode with the screen on the lowest brightness setting, keep it on wi-fi and turn all sync off, and even then I don't get there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mohawk3:
My battery life is generally similar to yours. I get anywhere from 90 minutes to 2.5 hours of screen on time (depending on voice calls and how much time I siege in WiFi). I do tend to get around 16-18 hours of uptime before I get below 10% and end up having to charge. I also have the extended battery and have also changed out to a new extended battery after my first year.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sickopsycho:
Content adaptive brightness = on in kernel settings- I am using custom colors as well. My brightness I keep on "auto"- I know, it's bad for battery but I'm outside a lot and live at the beach so it gets quite bright and is very hard to see my screen. I even have to shade it with my hand as is most of the time outside to see it.

I guess I also forgot to mention that I keep GPS on at all times and only turn on wifi from time to time. Wifi actually seems to use less battery than the 4g radio, does it not? Assuming you have a strong signal?

Thanks everyone else for the replies- I just wanted to make sure I wasnt crazy. =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TemplesOfSyrinx:
PA keeps getting better and better. I was bored yesterday so I flashed the latest Cyanogenmod ROM. After getting everything set up, I lasted about half the day before I restored my backup of PA 3.67
