HELP

Transfer contacts:

SIM card to internal storage works perfectly...

internal storage to SIM card, have a solution?

:confused::confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
I do not have any such issue.

I prefer not to store contacts on SIM card. Rather use Google sync to store my contacts which can be accessed anywhere anytime.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
As many of you might have heard, GPS was fixed yesterday(yes by me.. :P (brags.. :victory: )). Fixed build of AOSPA shall be released in a day, along with a couple more minor fixes.
[Sony Xperia L] fatino:
I'm on cm11 thanks to you :) no more stock finally. Waiting for your next release so I can try Paranoid. Thank you so much!

What about the camera...i mean video features...the framerates is low and recording with low lights and after touch to focus became worst

Thanks for your hardwork bud
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Nothing on the camera yet. Not sure of the fix yet. Will look into it sometime. No promises.
[Sony Xperia L] primemonitor:
Can you please also look into the lockscreen freezing issue? It gets irritating after a while :(

Thanks for the otherwise great ROM, looking forward to the new build with fixed GPS :good:

Guys, please is there any way to change my Wi-Fi MAC adress on this ROM? I need to change to my stock MAC Adress from Sony because everywhere I have MAC Filters on Internet (Work, Home etc.) and I need to have the stock one. Please can you help me to change it somehow? Thanks Atisz!
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
AOSPA legacy team isn't accepting new devices anymore so sadly, no.
[Sony Xperia L] Gregorypac:
official version will to Taoshan?
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Umm guys... Lightbulb is not working in this build and I'm very sorry about that for screwing it up. I'll have it fixed in next build.
[Sony Xperia L] adil089:
Thank you for your support.
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
it works fine for me
[Sony Xperia L] DsvCdsSoftware:
Thanks aa lot. I always used cm11, but when I tried this rom, it works better on my Xperia l. Anyone here are having trouble with hdr on stock camera. Others like camera zoom fx have problem to in this rom, but Google camera as an example works sometimes, and sometime the app freeze after taking a photo. I will try to take a logcat from stock camera when I'll be at home tonight
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Looks like my phone's flash is dead. :(
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
:( try another app

hope it work for you
[Sony Xperia L] DsvCdsSoftware:
I don't know if its the right place or if I can do this, but is it possible to have the CM11 function for blocking SMS or Calls in AOSPA?
[Sony Xperia L] namerke:
Hi there, fellow ROM builder. I build PA for a legacy device as well, and everything works just fine, except the Move to SD support.

Could you give me a hint about what changes are necessary to bring this feature in a working state? I already run through a lot of topics, and changed some permissions and what not, but those changes does not seem to work. You can answer in a PM if you don't want this thread flooded with this kind of messages, and thanks in advance for any help. :good:
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
It really is dead. I verified. :(

No, not yet. It's a feature still being worked out, but not planned for any immediate releases.

Link me to your device tree, I'll help you out.
[Sony Xperia L] adil089:
Hey does anyone know if pac ROM is still being worked on for our device?

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

Sorry if I have posted in wrong place. Didn't know where else to ask. Thank you.
[Sony Xperia L] namerke:
Here it is, github repo.

Thank you for helping me out here.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Check your github. Sent you pull request.
[Sony Xperia L] namerke:
Wow, you are fast. Thank you for your collaboration, you are the kind of people that keeps this site alive.

The first thing in the morning will be building for my device and test these commits.

Thank you again. :highfive:
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
DeviousFusion..Please cooperate with the other developers to fix the HDR option in Camera in general kitkat ROMS

I mean when you enable HDR and try to take a picture..the app freezes.. Annoying :/
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Why it's so hard to wake up the device??

After it turns off by itself..I have to press the power button 8 times to wake my Xperia L !
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Also proximity sensor gets enabled when I lock the device.. and BTW where is Paranoid Android Hybrid Engine?
[Sony Xperia L] primemonitor:
I have this issue too, phone freezes many times while unlocking.

And sometimes, the screen even lights up after pressing the unlock button, but doesn't show anything. Stays completely blank. Then after a few seconds the lockscreen will show up. :(

Any solutions for this?

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:11 PM ----------

This is AOSPA, there is no Hybrid Engine. For now, at least. :p
[Sony Xperia L] faizalotai:
This happening to all caf based rom..

The sensor is on because of the peak feature
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
The sensor won't get damaged?
[Sony Xperia L] fatino:
I think video recording is more important as its core feature. Does it work fine on this rom? On CM11 its awful. When there is low light the fps is 4-5. Compared to stock which is smooth 24+fps. Only when you put exposure on -2 its smooth. But its also dark :) Darker than stock.

If recording works fine on this rom, I'm switching :)
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
The camera is like any other KitKat ROM
[Sony Xperia L] utsavkoju:
adb Issue.

I have been using this ROM since early morning today. But usb issue annoying me a lot. While I connect my device to my laptop it continuously discharge instead of charging up. again i cannot install adb driver. Anyone have faced this issue and have got any solution.
[Sony Xperia L] nandroidz:
I Just wanted to know whether the following features(LOOK THE INFOGRAPHIC BELOW) of Paranoid Android are available in the Rom :D

THE FEATURES OF PARANOID ANDROID SHOWN I AN INFOGRAPHIC

http://www.androidpit.com/paranoid-android-features-via-infographics

AND THANKS FOR THE ROM :good::good::good:

U PUT IN AN AWESOME WORK

HOPE THE BUGS GET FIXED SOON

:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
PA 4.0 is still in beta. None of the PA features (including HALO) have been included yet. Right now the ROM is pretty much similar to AOSP. I shall integrate features as they come.

Yes, the phone isn't going into Deep Sleep. I too noticed that. Will have to check. Adding to list of bugs.

I noticed that too. Will look into it. Looks kernel related. Adding to list of bugs. Try toggling the USB Debugging option. Worked for me.

Those features have not yet been implemented in AOSPA 4.0(still in beta). I'll integrate them as they arrive.
[Sony Xperia L] NoeVermilion:
GOOD

overall the AOSP Rom is great n smooth view sir.. but had some serious bugs...

i hope it will fix soon... i like PA Rom n Kitkat UI also..

waiting for the next awesome Rom... :D :angel:
[Sony Xperia L] steeserious:
Just noticed the camera button is not working. The phone vibrates, but does not start camera app. Once in camera app, it won't take a picture when pressing the button.
[Sony Xperia L] Hellspawm:
if you check my post i upload a screenshots and 2 of them is with camera taking pic normal and zoom mode, the button is on display, and to zoom use 2 fingers on display
[Sony Xperia L] steeserious:
I didn't say the camera is not working, I said the button doesn't do anything.
[Sony Xperia L] >>??<<:
can i flash the .img file using flashtool?
[Sony Xperia L] Crytech:
system.img and boot.img can be flashed. But no way to flash userdata.img through flashtool.
[Sony Xperia L] >>??<<:
can you show me how to install userdata.img using cmd commands?
[Sony Xperia L] :
Place the userdata.img in C:\Flashtool\x10flasher_lib

Open CMD in Administrator Mode (Start -> search CMD (right-mouse open as Administrator)

Type cd C:\Flashtool\x10flasher_lib

Type flashtool flash userdata userdata.img

Hope this helps
[Sony Xperia L] Crytech:
I hope you have installed Android sdk tools installed on your pc.

So copy the userdata.img to following directory:

SDK folder/sdk/platform-tools/ [This may vary in your case]​

Boot phone to bootloader by swithing it off and press Vol up+Plug USB.

In this directory, open cmd by pressing SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK

Type command: fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

If you do it correctly, you are done :good:

Copy userdata.img file to adb sdk in platform-tools folder then click in white window there to have nothing selected hold down shift and right click on that backgound and choose " open command window here" in that window of command prompt type fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Make sure your phone is in fastboot mode plugged at your computer
[Sony Xperia L] babakgol70:

BTW I am also a gammer I don't get much problem in this using it from last 4 days

---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

in flashtool select fastboot mode

select flash kernel than select boot.IMG

than select flash system and choose system.IMG

for userdata.IMG its just like wipe data and cache because we don't have cwm kernel na so userdata.IMG is used
[Sony Xperia L] AayushDhuria:
Post #33(just a couple of posts above yours, BTW), I posted detailed beginner friendly guide to get started to fastboot flashing, or do as Yash explained, I don't know anything about that, though.
[Sony Xperia L] Raj joshi:
I have the same problem :(
[Sony Xperia L] RazZzeR:
Me too

same problem plus theme not working after reboot for settings.

EDIT:-

Install ThunderZap 4.5 will solve Hard Wake up Problem.
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Just found a new bug..

When clearing all apps..all apps get cleared except the final app in the list..

So now its 3 bugs.. hard wake bug,camera with HDR mode on freeze and the one above.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
It's a feature. Not a bug.
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Oh.. Its a bad feature but its ok :).. I am feeling dumb at this moment hehehehe

BTW your ROM is awesome except the hard wake thing
[Sony Xperia L] faizalotai:
That's what i'm afraid of, so i don't use peek feature:D
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Same here hehehehehe
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
[MENTION=4018158]DeviousFusion[/MENTION] , are you working on an update for this?

There is 4.42 out there.

Plus, there's a wake-up bug. :(

It would be nice if we had an update with a bug fix. :)

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia L] basuraunak:
Wow PA just got updated to 4.45 Alpha with all new Recents.

Eagerly Waiting!
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
Its because of old and outdated hwcomposer. You need to wait for sometime.

New recents panel isn't open source yet and it won't be before its stable, so don't expect it soon in our unofficial port.
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
I know we are not supposed to ask for ETAs as the developers might feel bad. But, can i know the reason for the delay?

Is it a new source drop or something, or a Work-In-Progress ?
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
You're talking about what?

Hwcomposer or new recents?
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
I am talking about the HWComposer. :)
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
Its up to Varun for now. So just keep calm and live with one small bug. :p
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
Lol. Alright.

I was in a feeling that this hwcomposer thing was a major bug or there were some new sources or something. :D

(*To be frank, till now i had no idea what that meant. Wiki helped me now and i know what it is. So no more stupid questions. :P )

Thanks for the replies anyway.
[Sony Xperia L] joebonrichie:
Can someone help with clarification of what is wrong with the hwcomposer? I understand the wake-up issue and experienced it myself but where does the hwcomposer come into it?
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
According to Varun, hwcomposer of these ROMs is very outdated which is causing these issues
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Is it hard to solve it?

but on other ROMS wake up is normal.. It's only in this ROM
[Sony Xperia L] Shivam Kuchhal:
Its about time when you face it. This issue is applicable to all ROMs so far and its been confirmed by Varun himself.
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
That's Weird..

I have never faced this problem in FXP releases..
[Sony Xperia L] DsvCdsSoftware:
I have faced on FXP releases since first build from them. And on AOSPA too. I think it's like Shivam said, we need to wait an updated HWComposer...
[Sony Xperia L] saket_oo:

battery stamina

can somebody tell me where it is i cant find it thx
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Devious.. Please release a new build before 8/5 because at this date my school starts and i won't have internet anymore..so please :)
[Sony Xperia L] basuraunak:
Ahem.....

Please don't force dev into deadlines.

Build will come when it is ready
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Didnt force anybody..

I have just simply asked him..and its up to him if he wants to update it or not
[Sony Xperia L] mischo12331:
battery

where is the stamina for battery can find it thx for reply
[Sony Xperia L] david pro:
There is no stamina mod in this ROM!

Stamina Mod is only available on Stock Sony ROM:p
[Sony Xperia L] Gregorypac:
Update :)

Hi to all

stopped updating the AOSPA?

We have a preview of update?
[Sony Xperia L] basuraunak:
Updates are slow as these are legacy builds

looking forward towards new build!! :D:D
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Any updates?
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Soon. I am having some issues on my test builds. Once they work alright on mine and the testers, I'll release in public. Also the newer will not have the recent panel yet as source for that hasn't been released, so kindly don't ask for it. New release will be primarily upstream and bug fixing. Lastly, I really can't give an ETA.
[Sony Xperia L] fatino:
As varun is switching device. Do you plan to work on core 4.4 bugs?
[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
Ok we count on you..

About testing the build, you can count me in
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Next build will be when some major changes in sources come out. If not, expect a build regardless in 10 days. Current test build is having wake issues which has brought down battery to less than 8 hours. Yet to fix it.

No Recents because no sources out yet.

As for official support, AOSPA-Legacy team isn't accepting more devices due to lack of sources. Yet I'll continue to maintain it, but as I have college and other priorities, updates might be delayed. But yeah whenever something new and major comes out, I'll try to update as soon as I can. That's a promise.

Lastly I have a new phone now (Xperia Z2). That means Xperia L will be for development and not a daily phone, hence some bugs might slip past during testing. If you do find something, just report it in the bug tracker.
[Sony Xperia L] warriorwithin1987:
regarding wifi issue

just wanted to know is the wifi issue is ther like that of CM 11..........plz reply asap
[Sony Xperia L] Gregorypac:
ETA new update?

Will make two months without build?
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
NO ETAs.

Stop being stupid.

He's doing this with his college, exams, his personal life, etc.. He'll upload when he's done.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
I can happily make it 3 months.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Thanks for the support mate..! :)
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
That's alright, mate. You've done a good job. My dad who doesn't know anything about Android has started loving this ROM more than Sony's official ROM. (He's happy with me who installed it for him, that's a different story :D )

Anyway, the only problem is with the screen not turning on for the first few times after reboot.

I guess Varun is already working on the new hwcomposer already as quoted by another kernel developer for this device.

Will wait for that. :P

(PS - I am actually a SGS3 user. I visit this forum for updating my dad's phone only)
[Sony Xperia L] fazorni:
how about working o pa 4.6 beta??

that'd be awesome
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
4.6 BETA1 has been distributed among testers. If all is good, expect a release in 24-72 hours. Again this is a bug fix build. No Recent Panels or Dynamic Status Bars (No sources released by the AOSPA team).
[Sony Xperia L] vishalaestro:
does this build fix the storage and wakelock issues?
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Wakelock issues have been varying from user to user. Can you be more specific on what wakelock you have?

Storage should now be sorted out as we'll be playing with a new kernel.

LASTLY, BIG NEWS..!

As of yesteday, taoshan was officially added to AOSPA Legacy list of devices. Releases will be delayed as we are facing some issues with new recents panel, which just crash. Patience is a virtue.
[Sony Xperia L] adil089:
Great job. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia L] nandroidz:
You Are Awesome:good:
[Sony Xperia L] XperiaNoobie:
No Ringtone change ?

I've been using this marvelous piece of ROM for some time now . Everything is smooth as silk , though i can't get to change the ringtone of my device :( The defaults ones are lame. I don't really know if it is a bug or something . Also sorry if I've posted it on a wrong section . Also Keep up the good work man :D
[Sony Xperia L] Hackner:
I couldnt find the Q&A thread for this so...

My god, this rom is amazing! I havent encountered any bug yet

I hope the development continues. This is almost perfect!
[Sony Xperia L] vishalaestro:
when i press the power button the phone doesn't recover from the sleep and how is the video recording ?does it have the same flickering issue as it was in the stock ROM?cm 11 has poor video recording but has good still camera.
[Sony Xperia L] AayushDhuria:
While I don't know about the power button bug, I have faced that on Omni ROM and I'm not sure if it's same issue or not, but I'll still explain. When you press power button, you'll see that the black screen is actually back-lit, so it's the system UI that fails to open properly. If you wait like a minute or two, it'll start.
[Sony Xperia L] vishalaestro:
It's just frustrating to wait to just unlock the phone, I was very much okay with the stock Rom on jelly bean 4.1.2 except the camera moving to jelly bean 4.2.2 caused me many problems.
[Sony Xperia L] AayushDhuria:
Oh I thought you were suggesting AOSPA had that problem, if you have that power button issue on stock 4.2.2, it's most probably a hardware issue.
[Sony Xperia L] vishalaestro:
what i was trying to tell is that i was experiencing stability issues ,battery drain issues and camera issues with the stock jelly bean 4.2.2 not the wakelock issue
[Sony Xperia L] Gregorypac:
Update Official???

DeviousFusion, guys

I'm not here to collect ETA, because I saw the site and update the rom day 25 and 28 and not yet seen the Xperia L, I checked the spreadsheet that this added support.
[Sony Xperia L] vishalaestro:
was expecting a bug fix update today,as the developer said a new update is coming within 24-72 hours i was hoping that i could install this ROM finally if it was finally working like a stock rom in terms of stability.
[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Lets clear out things.

I did say 24-72 hours, but then we got official support and things really screwed up with so many FCs.

I have a test build that I am willing to share here. Mind you, the GPS is broken. And there might be several FCs. And it has the new Recent Panels.

TEST BUILD <http://www.mediafire.com/download/ps42b731g41pqqx/pa_taoshan-4.6-BETA2-20140916_bug.zip>

That screen wake up issue, is basically due to hwcomposer. I do not know how to fix, and had a word with Varun about it. He had been working previously, but gave up. Rather he would try and fix up when Android L releases. I do understand many will be upset, but thats all we could do.

Taoshan is added to the AOSPA-Legacy listing, but no builds for some time more as there are lot of hdpi issues that need sorting out. Things have been quiet here, but believe me there are cogs and gears churning in the background, though I know its been slow going.

Lastly, there are no wakelocks with the ROM. But a Google Play Service wakelock arises after Gapps are flashed. I would love if someone would help in sorting that out.

I feel like a (w)orator after typing that out.. :P

Regards.
[Sony Xperia L] Rohan purohit:
Hey thanks for d test build.. Just flashed it.. N it works like a charm..

Havent got a single fc as of now :D looks pretty stable to me..even d recent panel..

N yah so looking at this build ,we r not gone have dynamic bar rite?
[Sony Xperia L] supreethms:
No problem, dude. You just do what you have to do. Don't worry for the stupid people who are not aware of the software development life cycle. Mere users.

Well.. You have mentioned this earlier.

Yes. And I would like to report about the Quick Settings button also. :D It keeps getting misplaced every time i touch it.

Wakelocks? Please buy the Greenify Premium and cut the wakelocks. My dad uses the phone and there are absolutely NO wakelocks and it has a very good stand by time. Using the ROM with ThunderZap.

Or, if you can't buy premium just move the PlayServices app from /system to /data and you can greenify it with the free version. [Wakelock cutter won't be available]
[Sony Xperia L] Rohan purohit:
Hey still using d test build..no problem whatsoever... :D i think u should upload it as a stable rom ...! :)
[Sony Xperia L] Gregorypac:
In this case friend

quick settings button fixed in this build VanirAOSP and is not being moved in the corner.

And so it helps to correct this error. team VanirAOSP
