Awesome, I was about to flash back to Paranoid from CM, but I'll wait until the Cards View is added. Keep up the great work man!
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Hmm. That is strange. So the crashes are isolated to 5.8.2 but not 5.8.4? Am I reading right? I am not sure what is causing it. I simply sync the repos and build from them, I am not involved in their development so I do not have a deep understanding of their custom components.

The new build with the card stack view is up. Its the 10-29 build.
[HTC Droid DNA] tstorm004:
Wow that was fast! Thank again. I'll be flashing it tonight & let you know how it goes.
[HTC Droid DNA] warpurlgis:
You're reading that right.

[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Working on lollipop guys ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] warpurlgis:
Any PA features implemented yet or is it pretty stock still?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Nearly pure stock at the moment.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I cannot seem to get the radio working currently. CM12 radio works but something with the PA repos seems to be breaking the radio. I will make another thread to separate 5.0 from 4.4 as some users may want 4.4 for a while until 5.0 is stable. But it may be a while before I get to that point. I'm in the last week of classes and then its finals week so I will be busy. I will post here for those who want to know when I post a 5.0 build. ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
A build of lollipop is up. Only thing that I have found that may be an issues is the camera, but I am working on that. It is almost pure stock right now as they create a foundation to start re implementing features and adding new ones. But I figured some might want it over CM12 or something.

5.0 will be in a new thread to keep it separate from kitkat:

ART ?

can i use ART on this rom ? any issue with it ?

please specify ! if dere are not bugs i would like to use it as a daily driver !! :angel:
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I have been using this ROM as my daily driver since my first posting of it last December. So I have been using it for almost a year. I have not used ART the whole time but have used it for a while. Works great. Only issues I ran into were App/ART specific issues that were global across all ROMs (i.e no exposed on ART etc)
[HTC Droid DNA] neelgangrade:
hey thanks for quick reply !!

i not need anything, just need to use ART ! for my office mail work, emails, calls, sms, whats app, basic stuff u know ! and i want everything smooth and fast. thats my sole purpose of using the rom, if this rom can give me above stuff i can surely keep it with me as a daily driver with regular updates ! :)

do reply !!
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
It will certainly handle all of that ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] roothorick:
This won't flash with newer recoveries. It checks /default.prop which describes the RECOVERY; if the recovery is newer than the ROM, it'll say "can't install this package over newer build" even though it's not overwriting the recovery... is it?
[HTC Droid DNA] hillmom:
I'm using the latest TWRP.... Hmm. The only other thing is I flashed the 3.06 firmware zips last night.

From the DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] tdizzle404:
Is it the modified twrp? Not the one from goo if your using the twrp from goo you'll have to flash the modified one its in the thread I think
[HTC Droid DNA] hawkstwelve:
I kept getting flash failed due to a supersu error. Had to flash another ROM, update superuser binaries, then go back and flash this ROM.

TWRP should tell you at some point during the flash why it failed. Look at that and you'll have your answer.

Also, like others have stated, make sure its TWRP 2.6.3.0 beta build.
[HTC Droid DNA] hillmom:
Ya, it is having an issue with the binaries, too. However it seems that I also have the wrong TWRP installed. Trying to find it now, as I flashed the proper CWM and getting the backup off the phone is a pain. I link having the backup on the "SD".
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Added links to the Recoveries to the OP
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Unfortunately pa only supports nexus and oppo devices. I don't know if it's always been that way or if it's a new thing with kit kat.
[HTC Droid DNA] Anu6is:
Always been that way.

Official just signifies that the core developers are the ones producing the builds and as such they would handle any bugs that arise.

As long as you have a competent developer who can do the same (with device specific bugs), it should not matter much.

Especially is the developer is building directly from PA sources.
[HTC Droid DNA] hillmom:
Running awesome! Thanks ;)

From the DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I've noticed they have repos for other "legacy" devices though, is that just to make it easier for others to do unofficial builds?
[HTC Droid DNA] Anu6is:
Essentially, yes.. there is a "legacy branch" that's maintained where you can build for non nexus devices. Most of the unofficial builds use that repo for development.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Uploaded an updated version. However there is very little changed in it. I think the only really noticeable change at the user level is the lockscreen see-through background blur (see below). Other than that its mostly little fixes and device tree updates from CM. If you are already running the previous version then there is no real need to download this update. I just did a build to check my setup and figured I would go ahead and upload it.

I am keeping an eye on the PA team and when I see them add in some major features I will get to work and get a build up. I personally do not want them to hurry to much as I appreciate their quality.

Here is the lockscreen see-though blur effect. I was on Gmail when the screen was locked. Settings -> Security -> See Through

[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
Test driving now. So far so good. PLEASE make a kill switch for halo. I appreciate all the hard work you guys are doing and it shows in this build. Keep it up.

Beamed from my Ansible
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Glad it is working well for you so far.

I am not a part of the PA team. I simply ported it to work on the DNA and compiled it. You may want to send over any feedback to the PA team, however I am not sure if they have a location for submitting feedback or bugs. [MENTION=4196559]Anu6is[/MENTION] may be able to point you in the right direction. Also keep in mind that everything so far is in beta, especially HALO. The PA team has not yet merged HALO as it is not complete but I chose to cherry-pick it for this build. So if there are any missing features or unintended effects, it is because it is still a work in progress.

But out of personal curiosity, what exactly do you mean by a kill switch? You can easily turn it off from the notification shade or temporarily dismiss it by swiping.
[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
I always whitelist it. Seems to work well enough. I saw another build once, slimkat i think, that had a disable feature. No biggie though. Good job on the port man, excellent work.

Beamed from my Ansible
[HTC Droid DNA] Anu6is:
Not sure what you mean by a kill switch.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I think he just means a switch in the settings to turn it off so that it can't be accidentally enabled from the notifications drawer. I know I've accidentally hit it a few times trying to clear notifications.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Ah, yeah that makes sense. If I remember correctly there use to be an option to completely disable it in previous versions. I would say it will get added back in by the time the rework is complete.
[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
:good: Exactly
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Looks like I will have to be changing the OP banner soon. :p Here is an update from the PA Team from their G+ page - HERE

As soon as they get this in, I will have a build up. I look forward to the rest of the 4.4 rework from them, they never cease to amaze me.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Oh my. I'm so excited. These guys are f-in geniuses...

Edit: BTW that Justin Maller guy that did the wallpaper has some really cool artwork...
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
It's something I'll look into. But certainly not something that I can promise. Especially with school starting back up in a few days.

EDIT: [MENTION=4148474]WEM97[/MENTION]

I have a version of ParanoidOTA that I think I have working. I will have to clean this up and make it work a little better sometime, but bare bones it seems to be working so far. This is included in the new full update on the OP or here is a standalone ZIP that might work.

pa_dlx_installOTA_2.zip

Let me know if it finds the OTA updates for you guys that use the zip and are on lower versions.

EDIT 2:

Sorry for those of you getting spammed with OTA update notifications while I'm ironing things out. Again, let me know how its work for you all.
[HTC Droid DNA] Domingoknows:
[MENTION=5117308]tes4p00ner[/MENTION]: Great work with this rom, it's been an excellent daily driver so far. Just wanted ask, since halo has already been cherry picked, would you consider picking lock screen notifications from AOSPAL? Just wondering; seems like a useful feature.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I prefer to keep the releases to strictly original AOSPA source only, no forks. However, if I get some free time, I may look into building AOSPAL if possible or at least making a flash-able zip to add the lock screen notifications for you. However, the lockscreen is contained with the android_frameworks_base which is updated quite frequently. So nearly every update would remove your lockscreen notificatons and a new updated flashable zip would have to be created to add them back. It would be a hastle and I'm not sure if I would have the time to keep that updated as well. Looking at that feature though, I wouldn't be surprised if the PA team merges it in on their own or does their own similar implementation. If that is the case however, it could be a while as they are focused on the halo,hybrid and other main PA feature rebuilds.
[HTC Droid DNA] Domingoknows:
Thanks for the reply! And yeah, the flashable zip sounds like way too much work. If you were to release that, I'd say maybe do it once AOSPA 4 comes out of beta, and then only for one stable version. Although a build of AOSPAL sounds intriguing. I did ask [MENTION=3721563]danjull[/MENTION] about that second one, and I think either of you would be a phenomenal dev for bringing it over. Either way, I don't want to add anything to anyone's proverbial plates, just thought I'd inquire about the prospect.
[HTC Droid DNA] mike_augie:
Thanks for the update ... looking good
[HTC Droid DNA] Ryanshog:
Overall DPI

Is there anyway to change the overall DPI on this ROM?

I like the rom it runs smooth but everything is about 50% to large for me.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
ParanoidAndroid's signature Hybrid Engine that allows DPI changes is not yet implemented for 4.4. However I imagine you can still do this system wide by changing the DPI in the build.prop. Default (or at least what mine is currently at) for the DNA is 480. So try changing ro.sf.lcd_density in your build prop and rebooting. You are talking strictly personal preference right? There wasn't something wrong with the ROM when you flashed it or anything?
[HTC Droid DNA] Ryanshog:
Correct no issues with it it is just personal preference. I Have some "Sensitive Information" i recieve and dont like people being able to see who is texting or calling all the time :)
[HTC Droid DNA] Yehudah:
I've been using ViperDNA ROMs since I've rooted this phone several months ago. It's the only series of ROMs that I've known to be daily driveable for my personal phone - and that's the only way I can judge it.

I've been monitoring the progress of this ROM and would like to know if you consider it as good as ViperDNA. I'd be interested in using it if it's that good.
[HTC Droid DNA] mike_augie:
[MENTION=5117308]tes4p00ner[/MENTION] is the 3+ that they just PA just put out the same that you just updated for a couple of days ago ? kidna looks like it just wondering ?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Well for me personally, I absolutely cannot stand Sense so I'm not a huge fan of ViperDNA. ParanoidAndroid is about quality and non-hackery based implementations. They don't want to flood the user with a bunch of options you may never use and potentially implemented poorly or are unstable. They strive for a pure AOSP feel and quality. So coming from a ROM like Viper you are going to feel as if there are hardly any customization. If you are looking into trying ParanoidAndroid I suggest trying version 3.99 first as it has most of the features PA implements. This version 4 is still in beta and very few features are currently implemented as they are reworking most of them from scratch for 4.4 kitkat.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking.

[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Yes, I updated to beta 3 soon after their announcement. So it is the same aside from the galaxy nexus changes, and we have HALO. The major changes compared to beta 2 are the new boot animation, the quick tiles are completely re-implemented dubbed Quick tiles 3.0 and immersive mode changes. But that doesn't effect the DNA as much since we don't use the nav bar.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Just watched the boot animation video... Looks awesome. So this is the new halo that's included or did you cherry pick halo 2.0? Just asking cause I didn't see halo in the changelogs yet.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
There may have been a few bug fixes for halo but until its officially merged I haven't bothered to track changes too much on it. The new halo graphics and any new functionality have not been added to it yet so it is still essentially like the old version.
[HTC Droid DNA] iximoronixi:
Thanks for everything you're doing for us man! I realize beta 4 is a smaller update but I was wondering if you still plan on porting it?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I have just finished compiling it and I'm just doing some checking. If everything is good It will be up soon.
[HTC Droid DNA] iximoronixi:
Sweet! Thanks man! you're the best! :D
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Had some issues to clear up and ended up needing to do a clean compile (which takes about ~70 min on my computer) but Beta 4 should be up now either OTA or here on the forum.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I have a project due soon for my Artificial Intelligence class, so I'm not certain when I'll get to this. I'll try to asap. Hopefully no more than a day or two.
[HTC Droid DNA] mike_augie:
Thanks for your work on all this stuff ... and good luck on your AI project
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
That is odd. Obviously they have all worked for me and I am always running the most current version (or a modified derivative of it to test WIP features). I'm still on the 2.6.3.0 modified TWRP. Have you tried a clean install? checked MD5s, etc.?

Also,

Just uploaded beta 5
[HTC Droid DNA] Rollingthunder:
I was having the same issue with Beta 5. I was on TWRP 2.6.3.0 and I actually had to flash CWM Advanced Edition and that did the trick for me, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2595978
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Hmm, I'm not really sure what would be causing it to not work for you all. It works fine for me still. When I get some free time I may update my TWRP and see if I can replicate the issues you all are having.

[HTC Droid DNA] badfaz:
wifi:(

Edited:

It was conflict on my personal WiFi. Sorry
[HTC Droid DNA] Yehudah:
Just flashed this ROM, like it so far but have two small issues:

1)when playing amazon MP3 the background flashes blue.. odd.

2)WiFi is very strong but cycles. weird.

Any thoughts?
[HTC Droid DNA] Yehudah:
I can live with the weird blue randomly flashing screen, it's cosmetic and doesn't affect the functionality of the app (Amazon MP3) or phone.

The WiFi thing though, dangit, it's a pain. I've found that it is the same with every KK ROM available so far - bar none. Some ROMs work great at first, WiFi is very strong. After a few days, the WiFi starts becoming flaky though. I can park myself 5 feet from my AP and it will give me massive Speedtest numbers - inbetween the cycling.

I can revert to 4.2.2 ROMs like ViperDNA and it will be 5x5 all day long, so it has to be KK ROMs.

Does anyone have any idea why this is, or how it can be addressed?

I have to admit, and I think I'll try one; I haven't flashed any Sense 5.5 ROMs - I'm allergic. I happen to really like AOSP. So maybe that's an issue?

Anyone?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I have seen the flash on occasion, not just related to Amazon mp3.

Both the flash and the Wi-Fi issues seem to be a kit Kat issue or a specific conflict in the DNA's drivers/source. I'm not sure exactly the cause.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Blue flash is usually video under-run (the GPU can't get all the data in time over the bus which is scaled dynamically based on what is going to be rendered on it).
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Those of you having the blue flash problem, was it on my kernel? I'm pretty sure I fixed it with the latest update, at least I haven't had that problem since.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
For me it was on the CM kernel. However I have only seen that flash once and it was a few weeks back. I have not seen it since. But I do not use Amazon MP3 so I cannot comment on that scenario.
[HTC Droid DNA] badfaz:
Is there reason why the screen will not turn on while on a call? Seems to happen on all non sense ROMs.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I do not have this issue on this ROM or any others. Check and make sure nothing is blocking your proximity sensor.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I'm using the one from the OP. Here
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
TWRP
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I wish I knew what was causing that. But I have no clue as to why it would act that way for you but not for others.
[HTC Droid DNA] badfaz:
That is so weird. That has happened to me on CM before as well. I have tried the air duster on my phone to make sure there is nothing there. I mean on a Sense ROM if the screen wouldn't automatically turn on when I move the phone from my face while on a call, I could press the power button and it would come on...but with the non Sense Roms the screen just won't turn on :(

Guess its a bad luck thing :/
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Maybe this version really doesn't work (bug) on your specific hardware.

Grab a last_kmsg after rebooting into recovery?
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Get a last_kmsg of a failed boot and it might say something useful.
[HTC Droid DNA] badfaz:
Ha figured it out...noob mistake...needed to simply update the hboot :/

One more question though. After the update of my hboot and radio I wanted to do a clean install of this ROM but after flashing the phone force closes and does not let me finish the set up...is this a known issue?

Thanks in advance for all the help.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Does it force close immediately on startup or only after hitting the last 'Finished' button of the setup? Which gapps did you flash? Also might try a clean flash without gapps first and see if you can get booted in. If that works then restart to recovery and try flashing the gapps.
[HTC Droid DNA] badfaz:
The force close comes immediately as the phone starts up. I am using the mini modular gapps. I will try the install without the gapps and see what happens.

Thanks for you assistance
[HTC Droid DNA] mjc2251:
Which version to gapps are you all using? I installed with stock and my MMS failed to send. I'm wondering if this is because stock gapps removes the aosp messaging app when it is installed? Should I have gone with the full install instead?
[HTC Droid DNA] mjc2251:
Yes, that's where I got my gapps from, but which package? Stock, full, mini....?
[HTC Droid DNA] Rollingthunder:
Thank you for the most recent update. I installed this morning going to test it out for the rest of the day and let you know how everything runs.

So far everything is running great.
[HTC Droid DNA] webeougher:
Just so I'm clear - PA has the same issue as CM on the DNA, correct - Google Play Movies doesn't work at all, and with it installed, MMS is broken?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Yes I believe so. I used the full PA gapps and then just disabled Google Play movies in Settings->Apps

[MENTION=4148474]WEM97[/MENTION] did you ever get this to flash properly?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
haha wow, Im sorry about that. I have no clue how or why you have had such issues. I moved to official TWRP 2.7.0.0 that was just released and it is still working fine for me.
[HTC Droid DNA] Rollingthunder:
Just a follow up after a few days. Everything is running fine but Hangouts. I know Hangouts had had an issue but it is with SMS. I keep getting an error about 50% of the time saying my message was not sent. I have found that some of the time though the messages do go through.

I have flashed new GAPPS and wiped cache and data for hangouts this morning. I will update if that has helped the problem.

Other than that I have not seen any issues. things are running very smoothly.

Thanks, solid ROM.

PEEK new function available?

Thanks
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
The source code for Peek has not been posted to their public repositories yet. Until they post it, it will not be available in this ROM. Same goes for PIE
[HTC Droid DNA] warpurlgis:
Peek code just released
[HTC Droid DNA] Anu6is:
I think you mean pie
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Yeah, it's PIE that was released, PEEK has not been released yet. I will hopefully have a build up today but its hard to say when. I have classes most of the day.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Thats good to hear. You are asked if you want to enable PIE when you first click on the immersive mode quick setting tile. You can reset your choice in Settings->Backup & Reset->Reset Preferences.
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Here is a post from the PA team: https://plus.google.com/107979589566958860409/posts/VcD8eB7KSD6

They have started building legacy devices. Luckily I submitted a merge request a week or so ago and the DNA has been merged and they have forked my device tree. Therefore when there is an official AOSPA release, they will build for the DNA within 2-3 days after. These builds are available below.

http://goo.im/devs/aospa_legacy/dlx

These will contain unreleased code that the PA team has, but has not been released to the public repos. So the current build that is up there should have PEEK. (However Halo will be gone.)
[HTC Droid DNA] mjc2251:
What kernel are you guys running with this ROM? Or have you stick with what's baked into the ROM?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
I personally just keep the kernel it comes with.
[HTC Droid DNA] mjc2251:
Does the charging led indicator work for everyone? I see nothing while charging?
[HTC Droid DNA] tes4p00ner:
Try now and see if it works any better. I set it to use a different URL (goo.im actually so it may take ~10sec when first starting the download). I double checked the MD5 and its correct. But sometimes the OTA is finicky and the download ends prematurely resulting in a mismatched MD5.
[HTC Droid DNA] mjc2251:
Thanks for posting! I updated to the latest beta and enabled peek but noticed it still got some bugs, which is to be expected. It only shows notification some of the time. Also noticed some blue graphics flickering while using some apps. These in addition to the lack of charging led notification.There are all pretty minor though it runs pretty smoothly and is great on battery thus far.
