again, they shared it publicly. if they share it publicly, then whoever wants can share it. their permission is not needed. and, on top of that, since they shared it publicly, they also need to provide the kernel source. if not, then they are violating gpl.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
So what you're saying is that the original thread was locked in error. Meaning this thread should be locked and the original re-opened.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
no. they have every right to close an xda thread if they want, it it might never be opened, if they dont want. they have that right. but xda isnt the only public website. they shared it publicly, not in private, on another website. since it was shared publicly, it is public now. and anyone who grabs it has the right to reshare it. dont get me wrong, i do not use PA, nor do i want to try it. but, as a rom that is shared publicly by them, they lose the right to say that no one can share it. while it was not public, in a private testing group, they can say it. but cant say it about a publicly shared rom. this thread isnt opened by them, and shares what they share in public on a different site.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
Thats just it though, they didnt share it on or to the other website. At least I cannot see anywhere on the site linked in the OP that PA shared a build. Its a quote from a G+ post (and link back) that had no builds then 5 unofficial builds added. So nothing has changed since the last lock. The site in question appears to have done the same as the OP of the last thread which was locked.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
that is also a possibility. if that site shared it without permission, than these builds are still public, unfortunately. whoever is the spokesperson for pa will have to take care of it. they can also ask a mod to remove it from here, then a mod will decide if its appropriate to remove or leave(most likely they would remove it). but it is up to them to ask to remove it.
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
All OP has to do is just point to the Google plus community group page and tell us to download the betas through there. I'm sure they allow linking to their community page at least.

So is it just me who cant find any official betas on there?

[Nexus 5 General] zxyz:
I can't either. You know, they had planned to release something last weekend but the host of their gerrit went down so they couldn't. Do you guys really want a release of PA without Hybrid? without PIE? without Halo?. I mean, they'll give it to us anyways but frankly I don't see the point. Why not use one of the 100 other ROMS with the same features in each while you wait? I mean just look at the ROMS out for hammerhead right now, they're all remarkably similar. Granted if you look at that feature list of the "beta" there are a few standout features but other than that why do you guys want a ROM that won't have what makes PA unique? You've waited 1.5+ months you can't wait a little longer? lol.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
No not at all..
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
I looked also and didn't see any.

You could make a build yourself and cherry pick those things but don't be surprised if it won't boot or if it does you get lots of bugs. :p

The stripped PA is only while it's in beta. From what I understand, hybrid still has an issue with DPI right now and they're working on combining halo and pie. Plus the hosting issues with their gerrit. I don't think normal PA builds will be too far behind the betas. At least hopefully. :)

Just check out their gerrit. A crap load got merged on the 18th now that they're back up and there's some cool stuff up for review too. ParanoidOTA, Knock Knock to sleep, battery light, something about voiceplus. Who knows what will and won't get merged but the PA guys are hard at work. They recently switched up their hosting too so now that that's all taken care of, the ball is finally rolling. :)
[Nexus 5 General] DarkiKun:
Oh I have to give this a try! I have been waiting for paranoid.
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
All the sweet features like halo and hybrid have been broken by kitkat. That's why they haven't released anything official yet.
[Nexus 5 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
They may have been broken by KitKat I have no clue. But PA themselves said that they have build a brand new clean base for 4.4 and are building off of that. So they are making sure everything works great with the new base then the features will be added. I've been using PA 4.0 since that site posted the beta and I can say its fast and smooth just like stock and the immersive mode is great.

Has anyone else had this issue? I've had it occur in two different vehicles. Stock & rooted latest software
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] beerbq:
You are probally losing signal it happens to me in almost the same spot everyday.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hybrid0NE:
I don't use any streaming services though. I have all my music saved on my SD card and play it from there and when I stream that music over Bluetooth to my car stereo, every now & then the audio will just go out (mute) for like a second and then come back on. I thought it was my friend's car stereo (Hyundai) but I'm driving a Chevrolet now and it's doing the same thing. So, I'm sure it's the phone because it happened on my original eVo LTE and I now have a replacement device that does the same thing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Will Rickards:
I'm having the same issue, audio cutting out for like a split second at regular intervals.

I'm running OMNI dated 20140331 and kernel from that.

On stock 4.1 it didn't seem to do this.

I saw in another thread that boosting the min cpu frequency might help, I'll try that today.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Will Rickards:
Well that didn't work.

Anybody else have any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
I've seen a few times it can be caused by the back cover being loose not sure if that is your issue but it's worth a shot
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Will Rickards:
It wasn't loose but I see the antenna contact points. I'll try applying pressure to the back cover over the bluetooth antenna contact point (as soon as I figure out which one is the bluetooth).

But I thought the issue with the back cover was total loss in bluetooth connectivity?

I don't have any problems connecting or staying connected. Just the audio stutters/skips.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Will Rickards:
Holding the back cover slightly below the headphone jack (where the wlan/bluetooth antenna contact points are) did not seem to make a difference.

I'll probably move the contact points out a bit anyway.

The only change to stock OMNI is restricting the max cpu freq to 702.

I'll try turning that off tonight.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] calgaryguy:
Can someone explain to me why the 4.3 Update isn't in Kies? I've seen 2 people mention that it won't be in Kies at all, but I have no idea why. I've got an unlocked AT&T Note 2 in Canada, so OTA updates are not an option for me. If Kies doesn't get updated, is there any other option for me to update the stock firmware without rooting the device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] megalomanic14:
If Samsung doesn't host 4.3 in kies your only option will be wait until it gets uploaded online then you can download it and flash thru odin. Or wait until a stock rooted rom gets posted in the development section and flash that zip thru cwm. The latter option is your best bet if your into rooting and custom recovery, otherwise an odin install will give you stock 4.3. Other than wait for a download of one type or another, your out of luck since you won't be able to connect to att network to receive the ota update. As to why it's not on kies? That's anyone's guess, but typically the newest firmwares are available under emergency recovery flash in the tools section of kies. Unfortunately neither kies 2 or kies 3 will function with my note 2. Idk if it's bc I'm rooted with a custom 4.3 note 3 rom that I've been running for a month or so. But to be honest the stock 4.3 is a bit disappointing, which is why I say wait a few days till a dev has made a rom with new 4.3 as a base and thrown in some extra features.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
It's not an official rom yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] thelegendary4801:
+1

The OTA just hit, so it's not going to be available for download via Sammobile for a decent amount of time, let alone Kies. Shoot, MA4 isn't even available via Kies still to this date. Who knows if the MK6 4.3 build will be or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jspex:
The update still has not released nationwide yet. I don't see kies or sammobile making the firmware available until AT&T has released to all markets. Give it a week or 2 and it should be up for the taking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] calgaryguy:

"To complete this voice action, Google needs to use your device contacts"

...

So Android voice search has started showing me this (I always say "no"); before, it used to just look up a contact in my contacts list. The "Learn more" link says they have to "send your contacts to Google"...

Is this a new functionality? i.e. was it that before, Google would use the contacts locally to determine a voice match, but now they actually send the whole contact record to their servers?

Or is it doing what it always did, except now they're just telling us about it?

Anyone know?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertmod1:
So I'm considering buying this phone but I want to know how does it compare to the N5 in terms of an unlocked bootloader, custom kernels, custom roms development community, and updates from LG.

As you may know, I read that in the past LG didn't update their phones, how can we know that it won't happen again ?

I read that the bootloader is locked, is it true ?

what about custom kernels and custom roms development compared to nexus 5 ? Is there a lot or few ? Are they buggy/stable ?

Thanks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vepaot:
Yeah the bootloader is locked. But that's what Loki is for. It just bypasses the bootloader entirely.

As for ROMs and kernels, you can check the development sub forums on here yourself to see if the amount is to your satisfaction. Though personally, I don't need a ton of options, just one really good one.

And as for their buginess, it's a case by case basis. Again, that's something you'll need to look into for yourself.

My phone was great until I tried flashing the hellfire ROM. It told me that it couldnt flash bc it was D801 and not G2. Idk what it meant bc all other D801 ROMS flashed successfully. Anyway I tried to factory reset after that and it says it cant mount data or something like that. Now I only get the LG screen. When I try to go into download mode to flash the correct kdz file in flash tool to reset the entire thing back to stock it stays on the screen that says download mode and has the blue dots. And when I try to run the program through windows and the flash tool it tells me that the phone isn't connected to the PC. Can anybody please help me?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuppenhorst:
Just boot into twrp and select install zip from sideload. Connect the phone to pc. Go to your adb folder and type

adb sideload .zip*(for example:adb sideload update.zip)

Be patient, you got to wait until adb has copied your zip to the phone. Then the actual flashing will start. So leave the phone untouched for like 15minutes and wait till it's done.

This way you can flash the phone in a working state and then kdz again.

Don't forget to wipe all before flashing and factory reset afterwards.

Hello guys!

I just want to share with you this little mod that i've made (big thanks to adi_aisiteru_reborn that linked me the tutorial)

As you can see in the picture, i've add the "%" symbol in the battery icon. It's not that much, just a little graphic mod, but here it is for all who want it.

hope you enjoy it :D

only compatible with alpha 4, when arsradu will update the ROM, i will update the systemui.apk too

for the newbie XD: to install it

1) download my systemUI.apk

2) use a root browser (the best, in my opinion, is root explorer) and, first of all, move it in "/system" folder

3) here, change permission of my SystemUI.apk in "rw-r--r--"

4)

"Important"

make a backup of your old systemUI.apk (it is in "/system/app" folder)...for the backup just copy this systemui.apk in the external sd card, to avoid any errors

5) then, push my systemui.apk (please be sure that you have setted permission like i said) from "/system" in "/system/app".

6) Confirm the overwriting with "yes", reboot and that's it

I had this exact same problem! At times there would be 3 different sandboxed processes that would appear on my battery stats and boy did they drain my battery.

As to a fix, I tried everything from clearing chromes cache/data, rebooting, uninstalling chrome updates and even a fresh ROM install but the sandboxed processes still came back. I eventually gave up on chrome and just installed the aosp browser which imho is one of the smoothest/fastest browsers out there! My battery has lasted so much longer now that I stopped using chrome. I suggest you just find an alternative browser :)

Whatever floats your boat man :). Still curious as to why these sandboxed processes started popping up out of nowhere though. I went a long time with no such issues using chrome and I believe after upgrading to 4.4.2 is when it began happening. Wonder if there is a screwup somewhere. So strange...

I wont say that this is killing the battery on my Nexus 7; but I realized the chrome.sandbox entries today(2)...had four tabs open in my Chrome browser fresh from a charge..2 happened to have flash content in them. Don't know if that is relevant to the thread or not, but perhaps it might be a useful observation in order to test/diagnose. i.e. maybe its normal and mobile chrome sandboxes threads from pages that contain certain "content". Perhaps this actually makes chrome more secure and stable (anyone ever been on a flash laiden webpage that crashed before?)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] snorbaard:
This generally works for me:

- Uninstall program.

- If it complains about being unable to uninstall, click "No" when you're asked if you want to remove from Remove Programs list.

- Now do a soft reset with a utility such as Tweaks2k2

- When pda is ready to be used, try to run Uninstall Program again.

This should work for all but the most tenacious of programs. If this still doesn't work, check if the program has a stub running in the Windows\Startup folder. Remove it, and then try the above again.
