[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wessiide:
I'm not seeing it, where is it posted?

Sent from my SCH-I545
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wturner859:
Lol i think he means in general.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bensl84:
Yea sorry. It's out in general. Haha. Hopefully notta... The man will port soon. Thanks in advanced!!!!

Separate device encryption password from lockscreen password, Contextual "on-the-spot" preference dialog (first implementation: Quick settings pull down), AOSP dialer check (removes features that rely on AOSP dialer if Google dialer is installed), Other AOSP bug fixes...

Again lightly tested as I haven't been as active lately.

http://goo.im/devs/notta/roms/jfltevzw

I also uploaded a VANILLA build from a fresh repo and fresh build. I have not tested anything though and can't guarantee continued builds. This at least lets me see where things are. You guys may be going official from another dev hopefully as well!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Huge thanks as always! Hopefully if we do get an official maintainer they're as talented and thorough as you've been.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Is it possible to get a build with the halo feature?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bensl84:
Thanks man. You rock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Just want to put this out there for anyone that's browsing and considering PA over CM. I've recently switched from CM 11 to PA and have been nothing but impressed. I've been getting the best battery life I've ever got on my s4. About 12 hours give or take and still at 30%. I'll be using PA from now on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
You running notta's latest build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Yeah beta 3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Hard to believe this is beta status. Running flawlessly on the latest build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
I agree this is the most stable rom I've ever used.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
I'll preface this post by saying I'm definitely not an Android developer...

I pulled the AOSPA source a couple of days ago with the goal of doing a vanilla build and trying to cherry pick halo. Also synced CM just to pull the needed device specific files and attempted a CM build late last night just to make sure those were working properly. Compiled without error, but I'm stuck at the CM loading screen. I'll have some more time to play with it tomorrow, but if I can get it to boot, or at least confirm the issue isn't related to the kernel or device files, I'll take a stab at doing a build with halo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
That's sounds good. I'd definitely be interested in trying it out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] unboostedzc:
couple quick q's coming from PA4beta3 on my now destroyed s3.

rooted, safestrapped, installed beta3 on rom-slot1, flashed MK2 modules, wiped cache/dalvik, rebooted. black screen.

did i miss something, and do we not have a gapps package on the s4?

nice to see notta on this side of the world, appreciated you work on PA for a while now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Unfortunately you're stuck using Touchwiz ROMs on safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] unboostedzc:
I was afraid of that. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
[MENTION=3128576]notta[/MENTION], just because you might know better than anyone, do you know when the pa preferences/hybrid stuff will be implemented back into the ROM? I have their paid app and was just curious when it would be usable again. BTW, the latest beta runs like a champ.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wturner859:
I made some new drawables to look like PA's new transparent halo that they teased about a week ago.. I was hoping to just stick them in systemUI like I used to be able to but it didn't work and zipthemer didn't work either (this was on OSE rom which has halo 2.0, not pa) so it looks like they'll have to be baked in.. If you want them I could send them to you and you could throw them in if you build with halo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Sure, shoot me a PM.

I think I got my earlier issues worked out, so I'll try a vanilla build later tonight and see how it goes. I'm defintely new to all of this, still wrapping my head around the framework. Way more involved than anything I've worked on before :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wturner859:

And here's an idea of what they look like

And they do a have a drop shadow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Just saw beta 4 was out for other devices. Keeping my fingers crossed for a build from notta today!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wturner859:
Beta 4 is just bug squishing... And for the most part we're pretty bug free... I wouldn't be totally upset if we didn't get it.

Speaking a of bugs, does anyone else's incoming call screen take a looooong time come up while ringing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
I know beta isn't a big update but it is up now. Just a heads up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
BETA4

Unfortunately it's just one of those things that will show up when they fell they have polished it to there liking. :o I just didn't want to put anything out there before they did....

Also BETA4 Update

BETA4 Update brings; Dialer UI Updates plus Dark Paranoid, Quick Settings 3.1, Restored two finger quick setting pull down, Improved lightbulb activation time on tablets, Immersive mode fixes (also, now a dual tile), Network toggle tile is disabled if Google dialer is installed, Sleep tile long press opens power menu, Long press rssi (mobile network) tile takes you to data usage, Dimmed dual tile switch icon, Downloads notification now expandable (show download speed), Add SuperSU to settings & hide from launcher.

Again not to sound like a broken record but not extensively tested!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Thanks notta. Appreciate your work for our device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bensl84:
Hey man thanks again. I actually wanted to start compiling or learn to but I have been so busy with work. Thanks for your time and generosity :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Can anyone who's on B4 check NFC for me? I just did a vanilla build but NFC is broken. Just want to verify it's an error on my end and trying to avoid restoring my nandroid :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
My NFC turns on no problem. Wallet allows me to set up tap and pay. When I get a chance I'll try to use it at a card reader to see if it actually functions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Thanks for checking. Mine's just greyed out so I'm sure I missed something in the build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
No problem. Any interest in cherry picking halo when you get your vanilla build up and running?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
That's what I'm working towards. I think I may have found the NFC issue, will rebuild later this afternoon and test. If that's solved I'll work on Halo using the updated drawables posted earlier by wturner859. Of course, by the time I finish PA will probably have Halo 2 ready to roll =). Apart from NFC, it's working flawlessly for a stock build. Big thanks to [MENTION=3128576]notta[/MENTION] for helping me out and answering questions I'm sure he's had to answer a million times over. If anyone is interested in getting started, check out his PA thread for the Verizon S3. In the last 10-15 pages of that thread he spent the time to outline pretty much everything you need to get a head start. Just have to make modifications for our device.

Still working on NFC, but noticed this:

Looks like it's getting close...

How is beta 4?

I've been running beanstalk, vanir and nameless pretty much exclusively over the past few weeks and bean has been my dd over the past 4 days.

pa beta 3 & now 4 has piqued my interest and I was wondering what might be different about it compared to the others I've mentioned.

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
I've noticed after even ticking the settings in the clock app that volume buttons definitely do not snooze the alarm lol. other than that beta 4 is solid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Ironclad Lou, any status updates for your vanilla build? This thread completely died. Just curious
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Thread is quiet because there really hasn't been much of anything merged since beta 4. I had started working on Halo but noticed there's been a lot of official activity on it over the last week. I'll do a plain build of beta 4 tonight or tomorrow morning and post a link if anyone's interested.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
I'd be interested. I'll keep an eye on this thread. Looking forward to it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] norman1080:
For sure. Sounds good. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] winapp2:
always interested in builds :)

BETA 4 Update

There is not much going on via PA's side. Everything more or less is coming from CM's changes. I did update Dark Paranoid (TRDS) light condition tweaks from SlimRoms!

http://goo.im/devs/notta/roms/jfltevzw//pa_jfltevzw-4.0-BETA4-20140208.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Sorry for the delay. Really wanted to figure out what the issue was with NFC and finally figured it out. I've only been running this build for a day, but everything seems functional. This is a straight up plain build of beta 4. Notta puts a lot of extra work into his builds to include things like DarkUI, theme support, etc. This build has none of it. It's basically what you'd be looking at if you downloaded an official build for a Nexus device, just ported over to our S4. If there's any interest in this type of thing, I'll upload new builds to the following links when PA updates or if/when CM makes major device specific modifications. As long as Notta keeps updating his feature rich build, I don't see much point in putting out a build with a bunch of cherry picks since his builds run so well. That said, I had planned on working in the old Halo. But given the recent activity lately at the AOSPA gerrit, I'm going to hold off. Looks like (hopefully) Halo 2 will be coming along sooner rather than later.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Thanks for the build. Will download when I get home. But of course you put this up and beta 5 was just released. Not for our device yet but I assume we will have it tomorrow. Thanks again. I'll run it today and let you know if I notice anything fishy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Beta 5 is up. Same MediaFire/DevHost links. Sorry for the lack of a real host.

Changelog - https://plus.google.com/115605611166087751372/posts/9zxRLwmCsuo
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Cool downloading now. Thanks a lot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
I flashed over the beta4 build that notta posted on the 8th and my calculator doesn't work. I restored the other one from titanium. Oh o also have an icon for paranoid ota but it crashes as soon as I try to open it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
I wouldn't dirty flash this build over Notta's. His build is awesome, but it includes a number of tweaks and additions that aren't included in the standard PA build. This build is really just straight Paranoid Android. No extras.

Paranoid OTA is only useful for our device it you use the PA gapps. PA only officially supports Nexus devices, so it will always throw an error when checking for ROM updates. But if you use PA gapps, it will notify you if there's an update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
BETA5

BETA5: Revert CM quiet hours(PA feature now), Quiet hours, National data roaming and bug fixes that include LED code rework, Download speed not showing/expanding, QS fixes, and a few AOSP fixes.

http://goo.im/devs/notta/roms/jfltevzw//pa_jfltevzw-4.0-BETA5-20140210.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nexoidian:
Well guys I made the switch to the nexus 5 yesterday. So no more testing PA for me on the S4. Its been fun running nottas ROMs and ironclad Lou your latest. Hope you guys keep enjoying your devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Enjoy it, it's a great phone. I have one for work, unfortunately where I live Verizon is really the only game in town for reliable coverage so I'm stuck using the S4 for personal use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wessiide:
I'm very interested in your vanilla builds ironclad, that's what I was originally looking for, just a straight up port of PA with no bugs. Am going to flash your latest tonight.

Also, does anyone here have issues with system storage space running out? I have absolutely no photos or videos saved on the phone, along with just a handful of apps(about 30 or so) but I am constantly getting a notification for storage space running low (says I have about 400mb left on the 8 gig partition). I will delete things and it will go away for a few days then come back. It's gotten to the point I have no more fat to trim. Any idea how I can fix this? Also, is there anyway to increase the system partition size from 8gb? I thought this phone had 16gb. Thanks for any help!

Sent from my SCH-I545
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] winapp2:
haven't run into that problem myself, no.

From what I've read, changing the partition sizes is pretty risky because if something goes wrong, you'll be left with a brick. Someone more knowledgeable may correct me though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Do you use Play Music? Had the same issue before I realized it was caching everything I was streaming.

I haven't done much in the way of AOSPA lately. Full time work, full time school, wife and toddler, Olympic hockey :). Got a new laptop awhile back and haven't even had a chance to setup my build environment on it yet. I do keep an eye on the PA gerrit though and it looks like some nice stuff coming up. I'll have some more time towards the end of the week to play with everything.

I think you'll find both Notta's build and the vanilla build to be one of the more solid (and underrated) ROMs here. Definitely not the most feature rich, but fast and stable without a lot of the issues you run into on some of the others. Let me know how it works for you. Someone else pointed out the the Paranoid OTA app I left in the vanilla build is pretty useless unless you want notifications about updates to the PA gapps. I'll most likely remove it from the beta 6 build when that drops since it's really more for officially supported devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] winapp2:
beta6 released, pretty uh.. boring changelog.

"Minor update to incorporate recent AOSP update to KVT49L (4.4.2_r2)﻿"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RedBullet:
Oh if only I could do that on Verizon!

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

Thinking of making my switch from CM to PA now.

I assume the PA OTA doesn't work with the verizon S4 build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Correct, the OTA doesn't work for our device, only for the Nexus devices. It will notify you of updates to the PA gapps you have installed though.

I actually had a little bit of time today so synced and attempted a build, but I'm getting a divide by zero error right after it creates the system.img. I have to spend some time looking at it, but I did notice that the process for building the kernel has changed dramatically with the new unified build for the S4. Will take another look at things towards the end of the week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RedBullet:
It sounds like one can easily modify the OTA app to add another device? I would guess it just needs to know where to pick them up, or an RSS feed or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Sure. Here's the source; https://github.com/AOSPA-legacy/android_packages_apps_ParanoidOTA have at it :)

Seriously though, where would you point it to? I don't have access to any real hosts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RedBullet:
Aw! ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] winapp2:
You could have a FTP spot on my site, but I'm not sure what sort of system you'd need to make the OTA updates work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wessiide:
Flashed the vanilla beta 5 last weekend and everything is prefect. No issues in the least. I agree full heartedly that these pa builds are the best out there for our phone, yet have no following. This is like our secret underground thread of xda. I see beta 6 is out, and whenever time permits it'd be awesome if you could get it going for us. Thanks to you and notta for making my s4 worthwhile!

Sent from my SGH-I545
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbarker2:
Agreed. I've tried just about every ROM available for VZW S4 and always end up coming back to this. Cleanest, most stable, best performing and it isn't bloated with redundant features. Anything that it's missing for my personal tastes can easily be modified with xposed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
BETA6

BETA6: AOSP 4.4.2_r2 (KVT49L) base, Unified JF, PA Easter egg, Battery light & misc fixes from what I gather.

Also these are now the unified builds so they should work on all the jf's! Name has changed according(jflte). I have not uploaded them yet but after I log off and finish a few things, I plan to upload. Sorry for not being so active but I've been pretty busy lately. :)

Maybe a half hour or so at most incase I don't get back on. Yours is third on the list. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbarker2:
Thanks notta for the continued awesome work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbarker2:
Just did a clean flash of the new JFLTE build and I have no service/no APNs. I assume this is because the build is now the same for every network, so what additional steps do I need to take to set this up? I set Preferred Network Type to Global and tried to change the setting under Network Operators but that returned "Error while searching for networks". It's the first multi-network ROM I've flashed so this is new to me. Thanks.

Edit: Think I fixed it by changing CDMA subscription to RUIM/SIM. Leaving this here in case anyone else has same problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
That's strange. Should be automatically set. What ROM did you come from?

If anyone is interested, vanilla builds are up now. Thanks to notta for dealing with my noobishness and helping get through setup for the new unified builds.

[MENTION=4238916]ayysir[/MENTION] posted this today, dirty flashed and didn't boot all the way. Too lazy to clean flash ;)

Posting here hoping to find someone less lazy

http://goo.im/devs/aospa_legacy/jflte
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ayysir:
elaborate?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Boots just fine on a clean flash. Everything looks functional after a quick test, but I did notice that the boot animation is falling back to AOSP. Have you gotten reports of that on any of the other carriers? I haven't synced the device tree from the aospa-legacy git yet, still pulling a lot from CM, but the PA boot animation was working on my builds. Same with notta's. I'm not in front of my build box now to check, but I don't remember having to edit the bootanimation makefile to get it to work on the unified build.

I think I remember reading somewhere that you had modified the OTA app to sync up with goo for the legacy builds. Haven't had a chance to look at the source for that to verify, but is that true?

Would be awesome to have a PA dev putting out an unmodified build to go along with notta's pimped builds. Hope you stick with it, and thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobbarker2:
What's the deal with AOSPA-Legacy? How is it different, who's making it etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ayysir:
its my derp, next builds i put out will be with animations
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
https://github.com/AOSPA-legacy

It's a repository to help bring official PA to unsupported devices (i.e., anything not Nexus). Contributors include some of the PA devs (like ayysir) and others. For a long time we had to build for our device by using a combination of repositories from aospa-legacy and CM. With the new unified builds for all the Snapdragon based S4s hopefully most everything will be in one place.

It's nice to have this for people who want to run something like the standard PA and for devs like notta to use as a base for his ROM. With ayysir doing these build I'll stop posting mine. They're virtually the same and he's infinitely more qualified than I am.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notta:
It should definately be setting those automatically! It always does for me... :silly:

I did not have the privilege, but I see the fixes are in place. :)

---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------

I uploaded another update to goo! Still BETA6! All the unified builds will go in there own folder from now on as well! (jflte)

PA Quiet hours was reverted with a comment stating it needs work. Not being sure if some things werent working properly, so I opted to put CM's quiet hours back in. Added enhanced nfc and the rest of the changelog is CM merges & misc fixes/cleanups more or less. Also I did switch the kernel back to XZ as I utilize the extra space!
