[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br0adband:
Well squid, I'm guessing you are using a pretty customized setup at the moment including the kernel you've created so, I'll most likely end up getting a similar situation I suppose. Since the Snapdragon 410 can do 200 MHz to 1.2 GHz it damned well better do it; if Motorola for some reason chose to "hard lock" it at an 800 MHz idle speed that's a bit ridiculous and will only serve to hamper battery life overall.

Performance isn't the issue here since as soon as some CPU power is required it'll ramp up as expected - the issue here is the 800 MHz "bottom" which should actually be 200 MHz. That's a big difference in terms of overall battery life in the long run.

I owned an LG Tribute in late 2014 and was regularly getting 8+ hours of SOT with that which is powered by a Snapdragon 400 (1.2 GHz quad core) and that has a 2100 mAh hour battery - the Snapdragon 410 in this Moto E should be better for battery efficiency + we've got a 2390 mAh in it so, as long as it's ramping down to the 200 MHz "bottom" that it actually should be hitting then I, for all intents and purposes, should be able to expect or even exceed that 8+ hours of SOT without issues. The Tribute has an 800x480 panel in it, the E has the 960x540 so in the long run that increase in pixels should be covered by the increase in battery amperage (290 mAh more).

This Moto E 2nd gen model should be able to do 7 hours of SOT without breaking a sweat, even with cellular/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/location services on and functional.

At least that's my goal with it... I'm on my first full charge since I bought it earlier today and currently at 58% with 3.5 hours of SOT and that's using Wi-Fi a lot with video playback as well. I've been keeping on top of the Baltimore riots that are happening presently and monitoring things using Scanner Radio Pro as well as a lot of surfing for info and news too. So far so good on the battery life, but obviously it can be much better as long as that CPU speed can be brought under better control.

Welcome to the world of Paranoid Android.

This ROM at its current stage is not for everyone. It is very close to stock and does not feature x, y, and z like other ROMs do. What made it famous once is the great bunch of developers behind it, bringing most innovative features to Android devices, carving a path to what is Lollipop today. Immersive mode, per app settings, halo, hover, pie, are just some of them worth mentioning. Meanwhile, the devs are busy with the real world, currently building OxygenOS for One Plus. Whether or not PA will return to its former glory, we can not know. Devs that are still there say good things will come this summer. Let us hope so. Apparently not.

Flash this ROM if:

You are PA nostalgic.

You do not mind things being broken occasionally.

You like speed and basic AOSP.

You like being unique.

You are paranoid.

You are cool.

Do not flash if:

You do not know what AOSPA/PA is.

You like stable ROMs with regular release cycles.

You have no time or know how to do logcats.

You ask too many questions.

You are uncool.

This ROM uses CM device tree and AOSPA Legacy sources for everything else. Flash at your own discretion, I do not feel responsible for anything that might happen to your phone as a result of using it, or consequently anything else in your life. I like breaking and fixing stuff, so if your phone breaks I will try to help in fixing it but no promises made. Download links in second post. Other stuff in third.

And, most importantly, #stayparanoid.

End of what? Lol. Things just getting more interesting. You name it I build it. :cool:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] speedyjay:
Im so Paranoid about flashing Paranoid android. I mean the Android in me is so Paranoid about being Paranoid. So now that the Android is Paranoid about being Paranoid he cannot stop flashing Android which is making him even more Paranoid and Androids shouldnt have to be Paranoid....so i guess this makes him Paranoid Android. Welcome to Note 3 guys, its good to have you here :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Nicely said, lol. This however is not official, yet. Will see how the big boys in PA will play. And remember - #stayparanoid.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jonny908:
Dear Encho,

First of all I would like to thank you for all your hard work and for all these quality ROMs! I'm sure that I'm not the only one who thinks that you should earn some $ for coding this stuff... ;)

But I have a BIG issue which breaks my satisfaction completely when using AOSP based roms for my N9005. It doesn't matter if I use your Paranoid, or Euphoria, or Temasek's, or R-Remix, or official CM12.... On every Lollipop AOSP/Cm rom I can't send and receive MMS. Also, I'm experiencing network problems - my phone keeps loosing the connection 2-3 or more times every hour. I noticed this is happening about 10 seconds after I hit "send" button (MMS). I have checked everything billions times, APN settings are allright too.... The weirdest part is, on 4.1.x AOSP roms, everything runs perfectly fine, with no delay, just like on TW based soft... I have no idea what's causing this :-\

I'm sorry for bothering you with such problems, but maybe you know the answer to this mystery. I'm stuck with this issue from the beginning. I found a few guys who experienced the same problems, but I think they just quited AOSP roms and returned to stock/TW... So am I :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] abax44:
Trying to flash and my phone is telling me this is for hlte and my phone is hltecan and it's not compatible. I've never had this issue before. Anyone know what causes that?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] comptonhubbard:
can't get it to write to the SD card keeps giving error that this has stopped copying
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
What is your radio and bootloader?

This is for hlte int, tmo and spr. I can add can to the next build.

No such problems here, what's your card's format?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jonny908:
Bootloader: N9005XXUGBOA5

Baseband: N9005XXUGBOA1

Is that correct??
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
You are up to date, so that's not it. Could be that your APN settings are wrong. Can you check your official provider's APN and compare with what you have in network settings?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] abax44:
Much appreciated if you could. That said, I've always used pretty much whatever Rom in here without issue, now I'm getting this error (not just on your Rom ).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GavinMazey:
I've also had the same MMS issues on all cm/aosp ROMs. There is something not working properly with the default messaging app. But if you install google messenger MMS should send through that just fine, at least it does for me. Here's the google play link for it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.messaging

[MENTION=2734070]encho[/MENTION] will this rom work on hltespr? Ask because most have a seperate hltespr build.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gerardroid:
well i see you give good support

count me in:laugh::good:...just installed it working great so far..

curious about the battlife..come back one this after 2 cycles

thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
International, spr and tmo are currently on the list. Adding can at the next build. Anyone else? [emoji41]

Don't expect miracles when it comes to battery life. I'm surprised that I made this work at all. [emoji51]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GavinMazey:
Great thanks for the reply. I'll give this a run later tonight. One more quick question. Do your other roms support sprint? Bliss and euphoria in particular.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MR.Samo:
[MENTION=2734070]encho[/MENTION]........ you machine, you did it, the first time since a long months I'll flash PA, finally the dream comes true and thanks to you.

Am sure it'll be more fun and exciting when PA team comes with the real developing and magic we used to see from them.

So count me in cuz will download and flash ASAP, and I'll try too be helpful here as much as I can.

Thanks again you art machine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stonedead:
Another rom to play, will give this a try. Thanks a lot..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] comptonhubbard:
installed this on spr and could not make phone calls, but I did have data. I flashed rom with TWRP 2.8.6.0 hlte because the spr one would not flash. then forgot to flash su. but it booted up and ran looked good except for the phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ps000000:
This is cool.... downloading............:good::good::good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Spr is supported in a way that it is flashable like the rest of them.

Hmm, seems there are issues with certain bands, will look into it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stonedead:
Rom is incredibly fast, phone call and received works but got problem with sms and mms. Seems stable, no random reboot so far...

Another thing, home button wake up didn't work here..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Rom is early alpha - Home button to wake is not implemented. I also miss it a lot.

Running for one day and no surprises - stable as a rock.

Battery is above average with 0,2% per hour screen off.

Calls and SMS work fine here. I use Go SMS.

Can not talk about MMS because I never use it, but I see MMS complains in most LP ROM threads.

Will drive to work now and test BT. More news later...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Thanks for thorough testing. [emoji1]

2 major issues for me which I will try to attend in day or two: telephony and home button to wake.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
PA Testing Continues...

Just got back from work.

BT is working fine. Connected to my car system. Calls and Poweramp worked flawlessly.

Played music for about 1 1/2 hour and placed a few calls. Not one issue.

Also checked GPS. Lock is faster than my previous roms and once locked error range was 3-4 meters. Better than usual. My other roms took longer to lock and once locked error range was between 8-12 meters.

Before you ask, to check GPS I use Google Play Store - GPS Test.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GavinMazey:
You should use Google messenger. The stock messaging app never seems to send mms for me on any cm/aosp lollipop Rom but Google messenger works great. Mms does take kinda long to send though
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] comptonhubbard:
are you able to make phone calls I keep getting no network connection error?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
I wouldn't realise that good ol' PA will draw so much interest, even as basic as it is. The number of downloads is like all the rest of my roms combined. Imagine if we had halo, I would have to buy a new server. Some day... :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] abax44:
You have the Canadian version ready yet? *squint*

; )
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Here you go.[IMG="Can"]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/515EcRmVDtL._SY300_.jpg[/IMG]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] abax44:
Oooh, a present. Thanks! :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GavinMazey:
Haven't actually tried the rom yet. My statement was for all cm/aosp roms in general. I'll get around to it eventually but I think it's probably going to need a separate sprint build to get everything working properly. At least every other cm/aosp rom I've used needed it's own sprint build to work right and even then I've seen the issue pop up on random builds for sprint not being able to make calls
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] alassiry:
Flashed last night. Stable, clean and pretty as PA should be. Phone functions work great, SMS, WiFi, battery performance as good as expected. VPN and camera both also testing good. I'm using this as my main driver despite Alpha status.

Here's the big one though! I was able to install Xposed Framework with App Settings per-app DPI with no issues either! That was the game changer for me, since I had trouble finding Lollipop multi DPI options and Xposed wasn't playing nicely with TW LP variants.

I tried another Xposed module (Xposed Additions if I remember right - was hoping to add home button wakeup myself, not knowing it wasn't implemented yet) but it stopped the device from booting, so I had to remove it.

Only issues bothering me so far are:

1) Audio at medium volume or above often sounds distorted like it is overdriven. This applies to music and system sounds.

2) It doesn't seem like I'm getting any LTE connection, while it works on other ROMs. I do seem to be on an outdated baseband version N9005XXUENA2.

Thanks for the great job and keep it up!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
I placed many calls, with and w/o Bluetooth, and it worked perfectly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
About LTE, it works fine here, might be your modem - not really sure. As for sound issue, try this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4132662/Sound Distortion Fixed.zip

Thanks for the first post. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] alassiry:
Brilliant, thank you for providing this ROM. I can't see myself going back to default DPI WhatsApp any more.

I'll check out both the modem and the fix you posted, appreciate it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] momo2004:
the rom not s-pen and multi window
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
No.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] alassiry:
After applying the distorted audio fix and updating both bootloader and modem to match, I can report that both issues I was having are completely resolved.

Also tested WiFi tethering (works with no hiccups) and I'm impressed so far with standby battery performance.. And.. The smoothness! This thing glides like a warm knife through butter!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] abax44:
Hey encho, just curious if the new build is Canadian compatible now? Or would that be a completely separate build?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Yes, just for you. [emoji1]

Sooo... New build is up, many under the hood improvements, LCD density, LTE, messaging.

Unfortunately no home to wake yet, I have messed something up when tampering with the framework and had to redownload repo from scratch. Will have another go next week if time permits.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
Many thanks again encho !!

Nice and smooth, LCD density seems to work fine in 2-3 different DPIs I've tried, messaging super (maybe add swich for enter / emoticon, for completeness, if you like) no issues whatsoever detectable with light use over the last 12 hrs <possibly a hint of "proximity issue" -not absolutely sure though -initially I thought i DID flash the zip.part after all LOL !!>

Will give EOS (the "Greek" ROM -haha) a quick go and then go back and try the "one we should not mention" ; ) with the newly released 5.1 alpha x-posed framework from scratch (if nothing more interesting comes up inbetween that is)

All the best

Error checking ROM updates

Hi.

Do you guys know hot to fix an error occurring when I try to check for updates in Paranoid OTA?

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
OTA doesn't work as this is just testing or alpha build.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kurpen:
Thanks :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] donisewell:
Just wanted to say THANK YOU. I love AOSP so I tried the CM 12.1 nightlies but standby battery drain was BAD. This one, however, is amazing. I'll be going to bed tonight with %50+ battery left.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] syrus.plaine:
Great Work

Hi. First off, thanks for the awesome ROM. Here's my feedback:

Advantages:

1) Very reliable battery life (Charge twice if I use it heavily, Once if I don't)

2) Stable WiFi + GPS

3) Very clean + no lag issue.

Drawbacks:

1) I think the button doesn't wake the phone up. Would prefer to use that rather than pressing the power button.

2) Will sometimes get disconnected from mobile network. Rebooting the phone resolve the issue.

3) Connecting to new WiFi network via Dropdown menu doesn't work. Needs to go into old fashion way to do it.

Suggestion:

1) Maybe you can add Theme Engine to this?

2) More customization to Nav Bar + Status Bar

3) Screen gesture? :eek:

Overall's a good ROM. Plan to stick around with it for a while. :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Thanks for the feedback, I am aware of the issues and working to have them sorted out. Stay tuned. #stayparanoid
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kurpen:
You're doing good job and are on a good path :)

- as it was mentioned, connecting to WiFi via drop down doesn't work

- status bar and toggles customisation would be great as well.

Basically I love the ROM for its speed and battery (however, there's always room for improvement). Keep it up!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
The idea behind this concept is not to have rom with too many features, but to have as close to AOSP experience and smoothness as possible. That also means better battery life, more stability and reliability.

Adding x, y or z feature is likely to make rom slower and less reliable. Keeping it to bare minimum is the key. Feature that can be implemented in few lines of code (like aligning the clock in status bar) most likely would not impact any of the benefits mentioned above. Feature that require multiple changes, like screen gestures for example, might severely impact the performance (this does not necessarily mean that this feature will never get into PA, there might be easier way to implement it, using few lines of code as well). In PA there are many features hidden inside the rest of the settings rather than having their own, separate, section.

Hint for today: look at the last option at 'Date and time' section.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kurpen:
Yeah I get it. How about you being so nice and motivated to create flushable zips to some optional features?:)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Maybe at some later stage, code needs to settle first.

In today's build:

Home button to wake finally working, huge credits to [MENTION=5231921]Gokulbalram[/MENTION].

Statusbar clock alignment (check my previous post for hint).

Coming soon...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
New build is up. 2 things that bothered me the most are here now: home to wake and center clock. What else one would want? Lol.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kurpen:
Awesome :) Home to wake is what everyone waited for the most I guess :)

How about more developed battery saving mode? :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Another major update.

1. Moving from linaro to saber toolchain.

2. Changelog available as text file.

3. Beginning of OTA implementation.

Coming soon: Theme Manager.

EDIT: due to framework changes for this update you might need to flash gapps + supersu together with rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kurpen:
Flashed it and is working great :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] pfm68000:
For solving mms problems (and network disconnections too) you must suppress all APN but one .

In my case i got Orange World, Orange Internet, Orange Acte (mms)

I kept only Orange World (after completing mms parameters found in Orange acte APN)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Minor update. For today's build flash gapps and SuperSU together with ROM. I need to figure out what's preventing backup script to run.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] syrus.plaine:
Hi encho,

The May 6 build's perfect. I will wait till you integrate the CM Theme Engine! :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
Dear encho

Many - many thanks again

Been testing for last 24 hrs

Nice features gradually being added but I thing major differences are under the hood*

Encountered no issues really worth mentioning. (Browser crashes after installing x-posed framework and a cupple of keyboard related modules but this doesn't have anything to do either with the actual ROM or with Saber Mod)

*Do you think its smoother and faster ?

I definitely do !

Anyway, please keep up with the good work - currently downloading :D Broken :D and will come back soon.

Many thanks

All the best

Excellent ROM, excellent battery life. No instability whatsoever!

Only thing I could ask for is to be able to modify the quick links, I like to be able to turn off sync easily. But nonetheless great work. On 07/05/15 dirty flashed over 06/05 and had to flash su and gapps again for some reason. Also the googles services had to update before constant FC's went away. Soon as it updated all sweet again.

---------- Post added at 03:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 PM ----------

OTA still not working.. Did u fix it ..change log for 07/05 said something about it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Yes, it said 'starting OTA implementation'. Still few things to do before it works 100%.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Today's build brings themes!

Please note that gapps and SuperSU backup script still don't work, so please flash those 2 when flashing main zip.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
New build up. Hopefully fixed the gapps backup, it is not tested by me yet.

use hangouts instead

I have the same issue yet i can send mms through google hangouts fine ive gotten use to that, try send through hangouts see if it works? I just disable messaging because mms hasnt worked for me on any other lollipop rom other than TW. My apn settings are correct just no aosp or cm rom works with mms. No big deal for me anyway got use to crappy hangouts now lol.
