We are very excited to announce the beta of Paranoid Android Topaz, based on Android 13.

On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with beautiful wallpapers from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app from the PlayStore.

Our builds are based on the Code Linaro Organization Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

[Google Pixel 7] sirhc:
This rom has support for OTA updates. If you plan to stick around with PA, your feedback will be appreciated on our new OTA system. We're consistently testing full and incremental OTA updates.

Key Features

- Face unlock support

- A slew of Pixel exclusive features
[Google Pixel 7] thattechguy_69:
It's my first time having a pixel and I heard from the past that Pixel's in general can relock bootloader on custom ROM. Will that work in this ROM?
[Google Pixel 7] googletermsofservice:
Just installed, THANKS!

:)
[Google Pixel 7] googletermsofservice:
Working well so far! Installed most of the mods I was using on the factory image...

Magisk, lsposed, revanced, aosp mods all working.

Only problem for me is you can't customize settings for the at a glance widget and the flashlight suggestion is annoying.
[Google Pixel 7] sirhc:
Don't know haven't tried
[Google Pixel 7] krabban:
OMG YES, PARANOID ANDROID!!! flashing now!
[Google Pixel 7] EtherealRemnant:
You would need to make your own custom signing keys for the ROM or the ROM would need to come with them. Otherwise when you lock the bootloader, it will brick.
[Google Pixel 7] thattechguy_69:
And also does the pixel 7 have a similar tool like msm tool from OnePlus devices when bricked?
[Google Pixel 7] BakedTator:
Flashed about an hour ago and so far so good...only issue is it's saying lte and not 5g...anyone else having the issue?

Edit: the issue worked itself out😀

Edit 2: the issue is back... In the settings it says 5g but by my signal bars, it's giving the lte icon
[Google Pixel 7] FlatironmanX:
Been waiting for this, very exciting. Thanks!
[Google Pixel 7] EtherealRemnant:
There is no EDL mode on the Pixel as that's a Qualcomm thing and we don't have access to Samsung's EDL alternative. If you manage to permanently brick it, Google will charge you for a board replacement which is like $500+.
[Google Pixel 7] thattechguy_69:
💀 I'mma just stay away from flashing for now.
[Google Pixel 7] sirhc:
It's really hard to brick a Pixel unlike OnePlus
[Google Pixel 7] EtherealRemnant:
I would agree with this. In fact I had never bricked a phone until my OnePlus 9 and I've had Android phones going back to the HTC Hero in 2009. I even majorly screwed up a flash on my Pixel 3 XL and it was totally recoverable since I didn't lock the bootloader. Regardless though, the fact that such a recovery tool doesn't exist, has definitely left people with bricks so it's worth pointing out.
[Google Pixel 7] Aks:
Oops, boot loop... coming from QPR1 Beta. Looks like I will have to roll back to stable and then flash this :(
[Google Pixel 7] cultofluna:
Last year bricked my 6pro..

Got a replacement from Google..
[Google Pixel 7] sirhc:
QPR1 isn't released in AOSP/CAF(CLO) until December I wouldn't recommend flashing any rom on top of it
[Google Pixel 7] oryanh:
Do we know if Widevine L1 is retained?
[Google Pixel 7] Pixel86:

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] neelchauhan:
I think your link goes to the Pixel 6 Pro (raven) page. While I'm running my unofficial LOS builds on a 7 (panther) and probably won't flash AOSPA, I don't see Pixel 7/7 Pro builds on your site.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] AndroidAsh:
Yeah the link does go to raven builds and no PANTAH is showing as available at all on your website yet. I have just noticed the builds are available on Telegram though
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sirhc:
Fixed, the website didn't get updated until the threads were posted
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Nj_DADE:
Wow! Many thanks to the team. I'm going to test
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Curiousn00b:
Been a really really really long time since I've used Paranoid Android, might've been the Nexus 6P days, so I'll definitely give this a shot shortly. 😎

Edit: So far, everything just works. 1080p is janky with the fingerprint sensor, so turn your display to 1440p and it'll work fine. Apart from that, yeah. Everything just works really. Nothing really stands out or is anything like when they first rebranded, but it's also a first release. Just clean and polished.

For those not sure how to flash, I used the fastboot version, flashed stock, booted into bootloader, fastboot update aospa-topaz-beta-1-cheetah-20221119-image.zip and it'll handle the rest.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] UltimateGamer83:
Is calling and 5g support working?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sirhc:
Yes
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sirhc:
We have a few pretty cool things like Face unlock and full fledged OTA support atm but we're more focused on establishing the basic necessities for now, but we do have some innovative stuff in the pipeline, just takes time to work on. Glad everything is working for you (ill probably make 1440p the default until i sort out whatever that is with fp in 1080p).

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Soft-Bricked my phone this morning flashing a Substratum Theme. Don't ask, I don't know why but it did.

Did a factory reset, Pixel Flasher, set up Magisk, rebooted - got Pixel is Starting. - couldn't get out of it and this was AFTER I recopied all my stuff back over form the last update I had on my Computer and Swift/Google Backups.

Factory reset, same thing happened while doing a reboot at some point int he process.

THIRD Factory reset, got everything done, restored, up and running, just did a reboot and it's back.WTF?? And how do I get out if this?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
How are you factory resetting the device?

Also, perhaps something that you are restoring is causing the boot issue. You shouldn't restore data from Swift Backup immediately after fully re-imaging your phone - if that is part of what you are doing.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
No, I’m doing the factory reset in recovery. Then when the phone booths up just going through the bare minimum of settings to get to the home screen so I can flash the newest update and get routed. Since it’s a factory update and I need to disable verity and verification I have to wipe again anyway and then I go through the whole set up process, let google restore all my apps and stuff and then I use swift back up to restore my apps and data.

I wonder if when I do my back up from Swift I should just do data instead of letting the apps overwrite them selves
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Searching online it looks like I can still connect with ADB. I’ll see if I can use the flashing tool and maybe re-flash without wiping
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
Ahh, gotcha. You can try what you said but I would also suggest re-imaging your phone with the matching factory image that you are currently running. You can do a proper, full re-image through recovery without wiping your phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
How do I do that?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
A lot of commands lol. I will update this comment in just a moment once I head over to my desktop. Typing this out on my phone would be a real disaster, haha.

Alrighty! Here is that update:

1. Ensure that you have the latest version of platform-tools somewhere on your hard drive. Also ensure that your phone has ADB enabled - which you said yours has enabled already - so you should be all good there.

2. Download the correct, most updated factory image here:

--> https://developers.google.com/android/images

3. Extract the contents of the factory image into your platform-tools folder. If you want to root, also be sure to extract the init_boot.img from image.zip file that is inside of the main factory image zip file.

4. Right-click and edit the flash-all.bat file and remove the "-w" near the bottom of the document. "-w" means "wipe". Make sure to save the document after making this change.

5. Copy the directory of your platform-tools folder.

6. Open CMD as an administrator.

7. In CMD, change directories to your platform-tools folder. The command is:

cd DirectoryLocationYouCopiedGoesHere

8. Connect your phone to your PC over USB.

9. In CMD once it is navigated to the platform-tools folder (which should also contain the extracted factory image files at this point), type the following commands:

adb reboot-bootloader

**This will reboot your phone into the bootloader**

flash-all

**This will run the flash-all.bat script which will re-image your phone with the downloaded factory image. It will not wipe your phone if you remembered to remove the "-w" line as mentioned above. Also, DO NOT interact with your phone while this command is running. It will automatically boot itself once it is done - which can take up to 5-10 minutes.

10. You can probably do the rest on your own from this point. But the basis of what comes next would be installing Magisk, copying the init_boot.img over to your phone, patching it in Magisk, copying the patched init_boot.img back over to your computer, booting your phone into recovery mode once again (via CMD) and then running the following command in CMD as admin:

fastboot flash init_boot MagiskPatchedInitBootFileNameGoesHere.img

**This will flash the patched init_boot.img file**

Then use this command:

fastboot reboot

**That will take your phone out of recovery and cause it to boot normally**.

I actually have to run to a birthday party right now so I can't write any more specific details. If you don't feel comfortable doing this all, please let me know. If that's the case, I'll make a video showing how to do this tomorrow or something, haha.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Lol,I’m hip
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Flashing now. For future reference, in CMD, you need to run adb kill-server, then adb-devices before rebooting to bootloader (I'm not a TOTAL ADB noob lol). In my case, none were found so I just disconnected and reconnected the USB from the phone and it found it.

Also, Pixel Flasher was not able to work in Recovery or in the Pixel Is Starting state, which shows up on the tool as ADB - probably not rooted.

I'll update when it's done
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Grrrr, no luck. Right back to Pixel is Starting.

Back to the hard way :(
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Curiousn00b:
When you're on this screen, normally it's a launcher thing. Have you flashed any mods for launchers?

If you're still able to access your settings through the notification bar, you should be able to go to apps in your settings and open the Play Store to temporarily download another launcher. This will at least allow you to get some usage from your phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
It's an encryption thing with the unlock method, pin, fingerprint, etc form everything I've read, and I read a lot and no one has been able to get past it without a wipe. I've used Nova Pro with the same settings over many devices

You can't get to apps. You can get to settings but if you select Apps and try to open an app, the only options are Uninstall and Force Stop
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
It's in the data on the Swift Restore. Everything is good after restoring Google Backup, and Swift missing Apps. I restored only data on system apps and user apps and the next reboot gave me this error. I wonder if I should NOT restore system data... I almost didn't just to see what happened, but I would have anyway
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Confirmed, not restoring System Data was the fix. Funny, I have restored Sys Data Twice before today....
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
In adb you do not have to run those commands. Adb devices would just let you check if an adb enabled device is connected. Adb kill-server only needs to be run if you had already used adb commands with your connected device, disconnected it and then reconnected it. That would kill the originally established and utilized adb connection which would then allow you to establish another one - which I suppose I should have mentioned considering you had tried things over adb prior to my comment, haha. My apologies.

But regardless, I'm glad that you got it working again! So it was that Swift Backup restore after all? That is good to know. Awesome stuff.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Yeah, I should know better than to restore old System Data. It used to be a no-no, but the first 2 times I did a restore after first rooting and then a wipe a few weeks ago, I hadn't even thought of it. That's what 78 years away from the Rooting game does to you.

As for those commands, ADB-Devices came back with nothing till I did kill-server. Probably just something on my end
[General Questions and Answers] Caleb_Mac:
Hi everyone, I have had the OPPO A83 for about 4 years, and everything works fine, last month there was a system update, and after that, I am facing some issues, especially with the loading of my Website "Fishing Side Life". At first, I thought it is my website issue so work on its speed and other matters but then I checked the website on other android sets and it worked fine. Still can't figure out what the main issue. either its phone or the website.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Quercy:
in this period of Black Friday I see many configurations of Oneplus 9Pro one slot sim on sale US version Le 2125. What do you think about it ?? Personally I don't need dual sim. Are there any limitations that I don't know about it? Can we install a version of the OS EU 2123 ??? Any information is welcome. I hesitate to buy it. Thanks
[OnePlus 9 Pro] rmendez011:
You can install whatever OS you want, it will forever be limited to single SIM slot, until someone finds a way to enable the secondary SIM slot.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Quercy:
If I understand correctly this means that there is no hardware difference between the dual Sim and single Sim versions. With the exception of the Sim Tray perhaps. The difference is software? Modem management? Thanks for your feedback.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AndyC76:
There are hardware differences between all the OnePlus 9pro models. I'm not sure where you'll find the details, perhaps someone more knowledgeable can assist.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Quercy:
I know there are differences on the 4G&5G frequency bands but if I'm not mistaken it's the LE2125 which has the most frequencies so on that side I shouldn't have a problem. The CN & IN model with the fewest frequency bands.
[Google Pixel 5a] Noexcusses:
Here is a good Video guide witch worked for me to unbrick my pixel

Idk if it works when you have your usb debugging off but you can still try.

If it doesn't, try to find sideload methods to unbrick your pixel.

Also keep in mind that you have to have already installed usb drivers - adb drives etc on your pc.

Don't use type c to type c cables because installation will end with a bootloop or an error.

Use onky Usb to type C ...

its NECESSARY..(S.O.S)
[Google Pixel 5a] V0latyle:
Android Flash Tool only works if both USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking are enabled. If you cannot enable OEM Unlocking, the tool will not work.
[Google Pixel 5a] Noexcusses:
Of you can not enable oem unlock your doing it with side load. Is also easy
[Google Pixel 5a] V0latyle:
If you're able to access bootloader and/or recovery, your device is not bricked.
[Google Pixel 5a] Noexcusses:
I said if you can not.
[Google Pixel 5a] V0latyle:
Then we go back to my previous post - Android Flash Tool won't work if OEM Unlocking isn't enabled, meaning sideloading an update is the only option. If that doesn't work, recovery is impossible and the device is bricked. If any of these options works, the device is not bricked.
[Google Pixel 5a] Noexcusses:
We have two options, soft brick and hard brick. Brick is whenever our phone cant load rom on his own and stuck to bootloader
