So what's everyone thinking for tomorrow's release? Bug fix update? I know Hybrid is in the works but do you think well see it before L becomes official?

Anyone getting issues with launcher columns and row settings in gravity box after last build. I think it might have something to do with the google search update too.
[Nexus 5 General] pinter83:
I'm noticing that when I use the OTA to update, when it reboots into my recovery, it tries to install the update but is unable to find the specified folder and gives an error, I then go to install zip and find the ota update download and select it for install and it installs normally. Is there a way to fix this, like where is the script that runs the install so I can change the filename path to the proper one.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] Pirateghost:
Sounds like you are using cwm. It's not supported by open recovery scripting which is required for ota

Hey... Is it possible to enable app ops for system apps.... I am on 4.41 with play services 5.0 which is drinking my battery ....

Can we flash a mod or something for the same

Sent from Dilli
[Nexus 5 General] raptir:
Play Services isn't draining your battery, an application that uses Play Services is draining your battery. I'd install BetterBatteryStats and try to get a better idea of what is actually the issue.

Even if there is a way to enable it, I wouldn't start restricting permissions to Play Services. That would cause serious issues with a lot of apps.
[Nexus 5 General] akash3656:
XDA happened. That's why.

I too remember him from the GNex era. Once in a while he would hop in the Trinity GNex(NP) thread. He even said nice things about other ROMs too.
[Nexus 5 General] Bl4ckX:
I flashed PA for the first time on my N5 a few days ago. Is it normal that battery life is pretty bad? I am used to getting 16 hours of battery life with about 3 hours of SOT. PA just gives me about 12 hours with a max of 1 1/2 hours SOT. Is this normal?

BTW: I did a clean flash as a secondary ROM with Multirom and made it the primary after setting up everything. So is my battery life too bad or is it normal for PA?
[Nexus 5 General] 350Rocket:
I doubt that's normal. Not many would use the rom if it was.
[Nexus 5 General] marleyfan61:
My experience is exactly the same. Clean flash coming from Stock and my battery life is substantially worse.
[Nexus 5 General] simonarturo:
Not normal. No reports whatsoever on the PA dev thread about sudden battery drain. What kernel and runtime are you using? Any updates? Play services? etc

For what it's worth, I'm getting the same 5 hour SOT with about 10 to 12 hours usage that I was with previous version. There must be something else that is causing your battery drain
[Nexus 5 General] Bl4ckX:
No need to worry. I posted it here to keep the Dev thread clean.

I am running: PA 4.42 with ElementalX 1.0 (config is the same as with the stock ROM which gave me excellent battery life)

I am constantly checking wakelocks using BetterBatteryStats, but it doesn't show anything that could lead to the answer of this problem. So wakelocks are fine.

Only thing that would make sense to me is the fact that I am currently on a visit in Hamburg (Germany's 2nd largest city, just to mention) and I am experiencing catastrophic network coverage. No 4G, complete connection drops, or a simply not working connection (network is connected but nothing works).

Interestingly though the Cell Standby isn't shown any higher in the battery usage tab.

Edit: If it is related to the network, I can check this first in about 10 hours when I am back home.

Edit 2: Case closed. As soon as I left the area of Hamburg the drain went back to normal. Dafuq.

Hey all. I'm on 4.4.2 PA and I'd like to update to 4.4.4 PA, how would I go about this? (TWRP Recovery)
[Nexus 5 General] simonarturo:
Just flash on top of your current version (dirty flash). It's on the first post of the PA thread, there's no need to clean flash when updating between 4.4.x PA version.

As for the method, you can do it manually in recovery or use the PA OTA app

Awesome cheers. I've heard about how you have to flash the 4.4.4 radio, is this true?

Did CM merge this new lockscreen with the builds or am I missing something here?
[Nexus 5 General] SwiftLeeO:
Overall I haven't had any problems with the rom on my N5. It runs smoothly. I barely use my phone so I couldn't say anything about battery life, but I like the simplicity of it. They aren't trying to do something completely different from AOSP, but rather making it better. That is why I like it and will continue to use it as long as it doesn't start force closing a lot. Of course I would like better battery life if it is possible. I charge my phone every 3 or 4 days but thats only because I use it maybe 5-10 mins a day for my alarm and messing with my themes :P
[Nexus 5 General] brockkk:
No. You can install the apk in the apps and theme section. Only works for cm based Roms though.
[Nexus 5 General] NaterTots:
You don't have to use the radio but you can fastboot flash the radio only if you'd like from the 4.4.4 factory image.

Paranoid Android was working well for me on my phone but I was having issues with signal strength and reliability. It seemed like cell signal was dropping out at random and the first time it happened it was 20 minutes gone.

I have reinstalled PA, like totally formatted everything, even sdcard and it still continues to happen, I went back to stock and it didn't happen for 2 days, now I am back to the latest PA and it's happening again.

3 dot menu button on the bottom action (?) bar... the one with back, home, apps. some apps have the title bar dots but some don't. no way to open menu.

[Nexus 5 General] NaterTots:
Go to settings> backup reset> reset pa preferences then it will give you the options again.

Some apps don't have the 3 dot menu anymore. At the top left of the app screen you hit the arrow and the slide out will have the settings menu in there.
[Nexus 5 General] simonarturo:
Wait wait wait. You can select pie in individual apps instead of the whole thing now? I thought it was either on while in immersive or off if immersive is not activated.
[Nexus 5 General] inspeckta_dek:
Chrome n wallpaper fc here too.
[Nexus 5 General] trawel:
But I've read that some have very similar if not even better. Some devs are trying to make faster/more battery friendly ROMs than stock. Vanir is supposed to be very simple and fast so I suppose it does not affect battery much more than Stock. Some people said that Slimkat is even more battery friendly than stock that's why I'm asking.

I realise that PA might have worse battery than stock due to it's modifications and more options but PA is not loaded with modifications so I suppose thet shouldn't affect battery too much. I can accept that battery won't be as good as on stock but worse than on stock can be 10 mins less with the same configurations and 10 hours less and that is a difference.

What gapps are you guys using? The OTA app wants me to use the 4.4.2 version.

Wallpaper FC is probably an issue on CM's end since the theme engine in PA runs directly in line the what CM does to it. Can still change the wallpaper through the launcher.
[Nexus 5 General] Rycon33:
With regards to wallpaper issue that you guys are having, as a reference though, I have another phone(Xperia SP) which is running Mahdi ROM also updated with Android 4.4.3 and I can set the wallpaper just fine via "Themes" settings. So the issue could still be on PA's end, just speculating though since they are of different device and screen resoluton.

So anybody here who tried CM11 on their N5 who encountered the same wallpaper issue? That would somehow answer the question where the issue is coming from, CM or PA, lol.

Force closes

I get force closes from chrome, clash of clans, and several other apps including a random occasional force close out of nowhere from the theme manager or whatever. I flashed latest CM nightly and got the same issue so my guess is that PA android's 0-day policy they mentioned on their google+ about cyanogenmod's theme commits has essentially brought with it the bugs and obviousness of not being tested that CM has. I wanted to use PA android because I thought with a weekly release schedule, there would be some testing before pushing an update to its users! I tried the latest slimkat and all the force closes were gone. I commend PA android's innovation with new features like hover, but there needs to be testing before pulling in commits from CM!
[Nexus 5 General] jxr94:
On ART as well man, sorry you're having this issue.

This is a fair point, but I think in the long run, the 0-day policy will be the better option because CM will have these kinks worked out by the next release cycle, and once everything is fully functional, would you wanna have to wait for PA's iteration of the Theme engine to be weeks behind CM's?

For the last 2 releases, PIE hasn't been triggering as low on the screen, so it's requiring an up and to the left or right motion for back or recent apps, rather than a diagonal motion that no longer triggers pie. Has anyone else noticed this? Or if there's something I can do, I'd be happy to hear.
[Nexus 5 General] noloukos:
i noticed it too
[Nexus 5 General] TrenchKato:
Pie works fine. You just have to swipe upwards instead of diagonally now. So for back swipe up on the left side of the screen, for home swipe up from the middle, and for recents up from the right.
[Nexus 5 General] viper2g1:
Does anyone know of a way to prevent an app from being killed while using the clear recents function? In MIUI you can pull down to lock an app and it won't be killed. Is there any way to do this in PA?

[Nexus 5 General] Skyrocket2Paradise:
I'd like to know this aswell
[Nexus 5 General] TrenchKato:
I don't think there is a way to do this. Besides it has been said that you should only clear away apps that are known to keep the phone awake such as games.

The battery that you think you are saving is only being consumed by having to restart your apps.

Is anyone else seeing almost constant wakelocks on bluesleep and msm_serial_hs_dma? I have a Pebble watch, so BT needs to be on all the time. 4.4 B1 did not exhibit this problem, I'm just wondering if it's just me, or is it a wider spread problem? I used to have 70%+ battery even at the end of a heavy day, now I'm going below 30% by the same time, since it's only going into deep sleep about 50% of the time. I also cannot install any themes, and my old ones that were installed disappeared, anyone else see that either? I will say that I dirty flashed, so if no-one else is having these problems, I'll chalk it up to that and do a wipe.

Theme Engine Reboots

Is anyone else experiencing reboots when uninstalling icon packs that were applied by the Theme Engine. I had dirty flashed to last weeks build then clean flashed to this one and am getting reboots. Even if I apply the default pack before installing it happens sometimes. It's actually corrupted my data a few times. A few times all my settings in settings were switched back to default, once it reset all the PA preferences, and last night it corrupted settings to the point that I had to reflash to get things going again.
[Nexus 5 General] toprunner2786:
I agree with you....seems like it requires 2 motions now instead of a single diagonal....it is really annoying. I hope that the PA team goes back to the original.
[Nexus 5 General] TrenchKato:
It's just one motion. I was using the two motions but stumbled upon this . So instead of using diagonals, start at the left third of the screen and go directly up and you'll see what I mean.

AFAIK PA has nothing to do with "NlpCollectorWakeLock". This wakelock is caused by Google Play Services (one of the newest versions). I was having that wakelock on Stock ROM and there was thread with that question and some ways to reduce it.

I just met several bugs, some have already been mentioned previously.

Second : When I did my black list Hover / Peek / .. my phone to reboot. Bug Android 4.4.3 or PA ?

For cons, I think I have a better battery life. For this, I returned to stock / locked bootloader / etc and I manually flash Android 4.4.3 stock. Then I again root / unlock bootloader / etc and I flash PA (remember to make a backup of the memory because it erases everything!).
