[Sony Xperia M] :
So, ROM downloaded and tested.

Here's my review :

1. Rom is overall usable(wifi, bt, 3g , everything works)

2. Fc in Paranoid OTA(when I tap on settings or Install)

3. No Music App

4. No FileManager

5. Ram usage is a bit high

6. Hover works well

7. Sometimes, I missout the chance to tap on the Hover notification, so I pull down the status bar and tap on the notification. It doesnt open in normal mode or floating mode.

8. Torch Doesn't Work.

9. ROM is smooth on Dalvik, will report about ART runtime later on ;)

10, Notification LED doesn't work as well.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Thanks :) how about the battery backup? and any overheating issue? downloading rom and gapps,gonna try it..
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
I will look into all of this then thanks for report

And about hover... If you miss it, go to notification and hold on and hit floating mode not press it. :)

About torch, I was getting build errors with it so I took it out for the time being. I will look into file manager and music app, however, I believe paranoidota is on their side because it worked in the last beta I tested.. Will check out though
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
I am on resurrection remix rom.. Can I flash this rom on top of it.. Or should I flash 4.3 stock, and then this?
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Were you on 4.3 before? If so, you can flash this ROM over top... Make sure to do your wipes in case any issues occur

Also backup just in case something happens
[Sony Xperia M] gadgetroid:
Download this ROM in your phone. There is a root app in Play Store called Rashr. Install it. After you extract the ROM (or the just the boot.img to your sdcard), you can use Rashr to flash the kernel using the "Flash kernel"option in the app. It should finish in a few and you can then boot into recovery and flash the ROM as the OP mentioned.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Thank you guys. I installed it the normal way and it got installed without any trouble :)

So here goes my short review ;)

1. Rom on the whole works smooth, yet to test ART.

2. Ram usage was bit high at first. Then I deleted Google launcher and velvet apk, and installed greenify. Now ram usage is pretty normal, getting 400 mb free. ( I flashed the micro gapps from PA thread)

3. Hover feature works well :)

4. No music app included in the rom.

One bug I would like to mention. Not sure whether I did something wrong, but whenever I try to change navbar icons using Softkeyz app, back key looks big compared to other two keys. Never had this problem with other roms.

And that's it! Please look into ram usage, as it seems pretty high. Thanks for the rom :)
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Hover feature!

[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
One bug I found :

1. Notification led not working when charging and when battery is low.

And the battery is draining fast in this rom, even though in deepsleep it's good. Please look into it, thanks :)
[Sony Xperia M] StraightEdgeKid:
Wow, it is definitely a good ROM...
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
give the battery a couple days like 2-3. let battery die, charge to full. do couple times and you will be good.. will post screen of mine when it runs out.
[Sony Xperia M] dvm84:
Hey [MENTION=5343021]bkman08[/MENTION],

I just reviews your rom on my blog I hope you like it :)

http://spinandroid.blogspot.com/2014/06/rom-review-aospa-paranoid-android-443.html

Also can you check why it random reboots sometimes?

It would reboot when I edit QS Tiles :/
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
I can edit mine perfectly fine.. did you come from clean install? nobody but you has commented on editing qs tiles... what exactly did you do?
[Sony Xperia M] dvm84:
Bro I don't know and I clean installed I was editing and bam reboot also Found 2 more bugs

ParanoidOTA FC (I know XM doesn't get Official Updates but it is a concern for the rom that supports other device and have the same problem) So would be great if you could pass on to the rom developers

Also in Lightbulb the screen turns white but the camera flash is not turned on to be used as a torch :/
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Doing the same now.. Hope it gets better :)

Edit : and no random reboot for me too while editing qs tiles, it works well..
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
My battery stats after playing a bunch of games and going on the internet . this is one of the worse ones I had with this rom
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
just above 3 hours of screen on time is actually worse!! On stock, I used to get 6 or beyond 6 hours of screen on time. With this rom, however, I am getting close to 5 hours. Not bad, but I think it can be improved :)
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
Rom is good, Finally AOSPA for xperia M, maybe switching to RC2 will fix lots of bugs.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Edited, sorry.
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
I've been busy recently so I'm currently going to build rc2 tonight and hopefully post tomorrow
[Sony Xperia M] aleksa069:
How about ART mode in this rom? Is it working without any problem? And will this rom be updated to android 4.4.4 even thought it's not big update(just some security stuffs) it would be nice to see that. Going to try this soon. Thanks for your support for Xperia M :) Cheers:good:
[Sony Xperia M] gadgetroid:
Try changing the language to English (United States). I experienced this on AOSP, but maybe it could also be the problem here. Sometimes, a few strings on QuickSettings could be missing for a few languages and since the major developers of the ROM are all from the United States, they would add strings only for the language they work for (translators could have been busy or whatever reason, but yeah, you get the idea). And believe me when I say that the QuickSettings are pretty thoroughly edited on Paranoid Android.
[Sony Xperia M] dvm84:
Thank you! It worked the rom is pretty so far but I want PA to add the Settings part for Hover as in crDroid rom by [MENTION=4478519]Cristiano Matos[/MENTION]! :/
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Update has to be pushed back as we don't have 4.4.4 yet so build will not be out until then. Sorry for the inconvenience. Nobody is testing art but I can test to see what all is working.

As in the settings can you pm Me the link As I can see what you are talking about?
[Sony Xperia M] haresh311999:
we have the 4.4.4 build for namelessrom nicki
[Sony Xperia M] aleksa069:
Hoping to se RC2 very soon cause I'm just waiting that to try this awesome rom. Thank you once again for support!
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
Didn't get you?

You were trying to say that aospa haven't updated there source to 4.4.4?

Or

Our tree is not compatible with 4.4.4?
[Sony Xperia M] haresh311999:
Our tree is compatible with 4.4.4 but Aospa has not updated it to latest, I am using nameless rom and got 4.4.4 update.
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
RC3 with 4.4.4 should be out for everyone Tuesday so anytime after then there should be builds with 4.4.4+. As of 4.4.3 RC2, I am currently building as i have been down to less time as my online classes for summer are coming to an end, therefore meaning a lot more work. Sorry again.

As for art, do not use it. Causes FC's. Will look into more later
[Sony Xperia M] KHM90:
So, will you release RC2 or skipping it till RC3??
[Sony Xperia M] aleksa069:
Take your time, it's good enough that you are developing for Xperia M at all ;) :good::good:

So ART is not working, not a big problem... How about OTA? Can you make this happen so we can get updates more easily?
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
I'm trying to get RC2 out asap but I do think I might just wait until rc3 because it does just come out tomorrow we will see Idk yet

?

hey no problem I enjoy this xperia m community and the phone I think it's great just trying to help flashaholics like myself ;)

As for OTA I don't know if they are accepting anymore devices as the maintainers of the legacy branch have said in the past no more devices but I do not know I'll look into after next build is posted
[Sony Xperia M] aleksa069:
Okay thank you, I think it's better to wait for the RC3 is relased and then port it to our device, it's more convenient to do that rather than building RC2 and uploading it and then few days later upload again RC3. Cheers ;)
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Well guys have to wait another day as they pushed update back a day... They say its worth it so must be something important... :o
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Waiting for something big ;) btw where can I follow their updates? Are you referring to the PA legacy page in Google+?
[Sony Xperia M] Kushan.modi:
Notification led is not showing the charging Red light
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Legacy page and the official paranoid android g+. Or you can relate here on xda in the custom rom forums and go to features under paranoid android
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
I know it has been addressed I will look into it when RC3 comes out
[Sony Xperia M] Kushan.modi:
Paranoid Android released 4.4 final version
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
already ahead of you ;)
[Sony Xperia M] Kushan.modi:
Cool... Thanks man[emoji4]
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Currently storage issues so waiting for a fix before released.

[Sony Xperia M] aleksa069:
What's the progress? Is RC3 anywear near relaising? Cheers :)
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
It's actually 4.4 final, and I'm going to try to test another build they just put out, because sd card is not being read nor are our nav bars showing up, so you can only use pie in immersive... not that fun so I'm trying to get that up and running
[Sony Xperia M] Kushan.modi:
Build 1 is almost stable rom and sd card also perfectly working then why final test build giving bugs....?
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Aospa made some derps on legacy devices so I trying to find which one s
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Oops.. So is that the reason you got few bugs while building the new version? Anyway happy to know that you are trying hard to fix the bugs. :)
[Sony Xperia M] gadgetroid:
SDCard bug is selective only to a few devices and that too only on few ROMs. Perhaps that could be the reason for the bugs in latest build?
[Sony Xperia M] Kushan.modi:
Yeah may b you are right, Xperia L users got only 2gb internal memory instead of 4gb[emoji12] in early phase

Currently waiting for this final stable build, bcoz all roms out there are nightlies.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Waiting :)

[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
[MENTION=5343021]bkman08[/MENTION] can you please share about the progress on the update? Not asking for ETA, but will there be any update soon? Thank you :)
[Sony Xperia M] whyzee:
I am not a linguist or anything but that does sound like asking for ETA.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
No, that wasn't. :)
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
It was asking for an eta but in a different sequence of words.. However I'm on vacation for the week and there should be an update later in the weekend. If not early week.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Well, then sorry if you found it that way!
[Sony Xperia M] StraightEdgeKid:
Bro, what happened? Why did you not updating this ROM? This one is so kool and bug free!!
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Sorry, but there has been a bug in recent 4.4.4 builds That has made the ROM 75% unusable And I've been getting ahold of devs and they don't know why.. Still trying but once I figure it out update will be posted.
[Sony Xperia M] StraightEdgeKid:
Nothing about sorry mate, keep rocking, but remember, we are waiting for your this rom... \0/
[Sony Xperia M] dastan4eva:
Take your time bro, I just hope we get updated builds, this is one of the most amazing roms to have ever graced Nicki Android development sections in xda
[Sony Xperia M] bkman08:
Sorry fellas. Personal life has taken control as of now as I only have two weeks until college. It will probably be then that there will be another update as my Linux distro crashed and have to re sync everything. Sorry for keeping you so out of the loop! If I can get synced before then and builds without problem we will be golden for updates :)
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
this rom is based by cyanogenmod kernel ya?:confused:
[Sony Xperia M] FindYanot:
Yes.
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
hmmm, so this rom is based on cyanogenmod, hmmm if want to try may be i should to don't play in xposed module:eek:, because cyanogenmod isn't compatible with xposed module right?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
Does adb push work in recovery or fastboot mode. I've seen a lot of forms use this method but it did not work for me. In recovery mode the device is not been recognized when i type in adb devices, it throws no devices found. but all the adb commands works fine during normal run.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerowinder:
You need to enable ADB mode in recovery for it to work.

fastboot is for bootloader mode only.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Adb push works in recovery, not fastboot. You need to get the drivers installed while your in recovery. Ate you on Windows pc? Open device manager and you'll see a device with an exclamation make on it. You need to installs the drivers for that. Go to browse for drivers and there will be an option to install from a list on the computer. Find the android adb drivers
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Just a note:

adb doesn't work in stock recovery other then when using adb sideload.

Custom recoveries support all adb commands.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Good point
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
i did as per ur instruction and now it shows the device in adb devices but i'm not able to perform any commands. i use CWM.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Please elaborate on "i'm not able to perform any commands"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
only "adb devices" works when i use adb push it does not throw any error but the file is not found in the device.Is there any restriction to the commands used in the recovery mode.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Put the file you're trying to push in the same folder as abd.exe. Open a command window in that folder. It's sounds like you have a path issue and adb is not finding the file
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Could you screenshot the cmd prompt please?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
the adb push works fine in normal run. but none of the command seems to work during recovery.adb commands works fine even in fastboot mode
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
What recovery are you using? If you're using cwm, it mounts /sdcard incorrectly as /data/media instead of /data/media/0

Mount data and ls /data/media
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
YES i'm using CWM . "Mount data and ls /data/media" how do I do that :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
in recovery, go to "mounts and storage" and press "mount data".

Then in command prompt type

adb shell

to get into adb shell

Then type

ls /data/media

Thats LS in lower case and yes, it is case sensitive.

This will list the contents of /data/media - which is the location cwm uses as /sdcard. This hasn't been /sdcard since android 4.1.2 though.... I bet ls lists all those missing files you've been pushing.

This is one reason you should use either Philz or TWRP. Antiquated settings in CWM
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Instead of push /sdcard use push /data/media
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Thats the same.. push /data/media/0

Although just change recovery from cwm and continue to use /sdcard

Otherwise Nandroid backups will go missing too
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackuse:
i tried out lots of adb push commands and finally understood "/sdcard/" which is supposed to be "/data/media/0/" is still "/data/media/ in CWM and yes all my CWM nanodroid backups are located in "data/media/CWM". how do i permanently make CWM to use "/data/media/0/" for sdcard

and i assume adb reboot does not work in recovery mode
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You can't with cwm. Use philz or twrp though twrp won't be compatible with your existing backups.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apple eating samsung:
Hey all, I am looking to see what most people are experiencing for typical battery life. I can get roughly 30 hours out of my phone from unplug to 5%. I am typically checking my email 10-15 times a day, periodically checking my FB and Instagram 3-5 times a day, browsing and YouTube 1-2 hours a day, about 300 texts a day, and roughly 2 hours of talk time. Plus I am on construction sites all day, so I am constantly turning on my screen to check for missed calls or texts.

Anyone know if that sounds about right? I am considering getting a bigger battery, but I am really rough on my phone so having a really good case is hindering my purchase of a Zero lemon.

I'm running BigginsRom 4.5, and I am getting roughly 40 hours before I have to plug in, and I do almost the same as you do minus the YouTube. So, it sounds like you're getting decent battery life on Baja, maybe check out those cases you referred to.

hi

my samsung galaxy s2 i9100 turn off when i disconnect charger howerver it is 97% charged

it boots to recovery without turning off, i can restore or install roms without the charger connected

but when i boot to android it turn off, i needs to be charger connected to boot to android

any help?!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Probably the USB board, this is probably the most common fault with this phone these days (apart from bozos bricking their phones). Given how cheap & easy it is to replace, I'd be doing that. KeithRoss39 has a guide in General (search for 'replacing USB charger board') which has all the info you need to get it done.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SupDr:
what about the fact that i can boot to recovery and flash firmware from sd with the device disconnceted

it only turns off when booting to android disconnected

So sometime last year I was just getting into rooting and ROM's and stuff and while I was doing my first attempts to rooting, I downloaded the drivers and stuff for samsung and I accidentally did the OTA with the stupid program samsung installs with the drivers... Now I'm severely limited on what I can do. I'm currently rooted on 4.4.2 NC5 Hyperdrive 16.1.

Is their any possible way to unlock this freaking bootloader? Like seriously? Is it just impossible to unlock it? Or are people working on unlocking it but are making no progress? Why does nothing support safestrap but Hyperdrive?

all safestrap ROMs (which you are sorry to say) are Touchwiz only. Honestly yhere are a lot of TW Safestrap compatible ROMs out there.

To start I broke my holster this morning. So I put my phone in my pocket like everyone would do. I apparently didn't lock the phone first. (This of course being just after I rooted and installed some Root features such as Titanium Backup) This led to only God knows, my phone opening many apps including TiB and settings. Somehow google account syncing stopped working. I read some suggestions and tried them all including a factory reset. After the reset nothing changed now except I had a phone that had no contacts or anything else tied to google. I retried editing the hosts file in /etc. I cannot edit it with Root Browser, Root Explorer, or even after using another program called mount r/w r/o. I did another stupid thing by deleting the host file in an attempt to replace it with another I created. Only good news is now the google account will get past the screen that says i don't have a reliable connection to the server. Still cannot access the play store but I do now have calendar, contacts, and a few other things. Any ideas how I could write to /etc

Sincerely,

My stupid self.

P.S.

I already ordered another holster.

EDIT: I factory reset once more and play store started working. I did root again and the host file is still deleted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] raynan:
If you're not worried about your apps and data, you could always ODIN back to stock and start over. It may not be the best way to go, but its definitely the easiest...I already did it 3 times since the root came out XD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] beeglej:
I read if you have the OTA version you can't ODIN back since the newer firmware is not out. I didn't get to the phone in time when it OTA'd. I will probably do that when the newer firmware is out. I am not anywhere close to a dev. So if I am way off base correct me its the only way I learn.

Hey, writing this from New Zealand on D821 Nexus 5 unlocked.

I have recently updated my Nexus 5 to 4.4.3 and it seems great with improved battery life and all.

However it is really buggering me off that I can't connect to 4G anymore. All I am getting is H+.

My phone setting is on 4G (recommended) for data and I have rebooted the device a few times just in case.

If you know any way I could try and resolve this problem, please help me out.

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Is your bootloader unlocked? I'd flash the 4.4.2 radio. Sounds like that worked better for you. If you have a custom recovery there are some zip files too you could flash
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalssuma:
Yea, my N5 is not rooted. It is just the 4G connection issue. I am very happy with every other aspect of the update though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
You don't need to be rooted. Flashing a radio from fastboot just needs an unlocked bootloader :)

I've seen many complaints regarding this new radio. It's great that we have a nexus and can roll back to anything we want to :cowboy:

Hey, thanks for your reply. So, do you mean that I can use the previous 4.4.2 radio setting with all the other 4.4.3 features remaining the same?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Yes. If your boot loader is unlocked just fastboot flash the radio

fastboot flash radio radio.img

Get radio.img out of the factory image. Google nexus 5 factory image. Download it and extract it. In there is another zip file, extract that too. There you find the radio.img
