[Google Pixel 6] Msean.o:
I haven't flashed a phone since *maybe* the last of the Nexus series. Things are different, a little more involved than they used to be 😅

Anyway, this runs well so far. Very smooth. My device froze on me a couple of times last night and lasted for a couple of minutes each time. Rebooted with a message saying that "adaptive connectivity services keeps stopping." Turned off adaptive connectivity and haven't had any freezes or reboots since. Will update this post should anything else come up.
[Google Pixel 6] sirhc:
Fixed already should be ready for the next build
[Google Pixel 6] Edmontonchef:
Still getting freezing on the latest build. Seems to happen when I use Reddit and Facebook.
[Google Pixel 6] thecdn:
There are chefs in Edmonton?

Long time resident of Calgary..... :)
[Google Pixel 6] Juzman:
Been running Beta 1.1 for a few days now.

Has anyone noticed that either GCam or MWP the capture button becomes greyed out after a second or two and you can't capture an image?

Flip it to front/rear and works again for a second or two.
[Google Pixel 6] Djmorganfreeman:
Same here. Thisis was main reason to back to stock
[Google Pixel 6] Juzman:
I was running HentaiOS, but I can't be bothered setting my device up again. So I'm going to wait for hopefully an update.
[Google Pixel 6] B.Z.H.29:
Hello !

I don't know for you but i have a big battery drain and my phone stay hot sometimes.

This morning at 6am i was at 90% and know, at 14%. My phone was stay in my bag and was hot...

I don't know why and if you have thé same problem.

Sorry for my bad english !

Have a good day
[Google Pixel 6] THERAJ12:
Did you find HentaiOS better?
[Google Pixel 6] Juzman:
Oh for sure, was like running stock.
[Google Pixel 6] THERAJ12:
I'm on Hentai now but like trying the more custom ROMS but now wondering if I should stick with Hentai vs this one
[Google Pixel 6] Juzman:
I'm thinking of biting the bullet, doing a clean flash of Hentai and not restoring any data and starting fresh again.
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
how do you get hentaios on pixel 6 pro? thought it was only on poco phones
[Google Pixel 6] Talysdaddy:
all you talking bout HentaiOS is hella disrespectful.. y'all in this ROM thread so stick to the discussion regarding this ROM, not another one. How difficult is it to DM one another instead of spamming this wonderfully made ROMs thread. Y'all need to learn some common etiquette, embarrassed for y'all
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
my bad bro
[Google Pixel 6] dwxvi:
Super excited to see Paranoid Android back in the space with another fantastic ROM. I'll be testing out the next build for certain once it's up!
[Google Pixel 6] ahoslc:
Do banking apps and Gpay work with this ?
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
you could use magisk and universal safetynet fix
[Google Pixel 6] ahoslc:
I do not b

I do not believe that works with latest Android 13
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
works fine on ricedroid
[Google Pixel 6] ne0ns4l4m4nder:
It works you need to use this version of safety net uninstall the old one. Add all the Google services, play store wallet, gpay to magisk listen, delete cache and storage for play services wallet and gpay and restart. Good luck
[Google Pixel 6] KardCreator:
I loved this when I used it but I had constant System UI crashes on oriole that would always require a reboot of my phone. Hoping it can be fixed soon!
[Google Pixel 6] sirhc:
Alright guys, sorry that it took so long, had to rewrite our OTA infrastructure, but here you go

Topaz Beta 2

- Fixed issue where device would crash and reboot

- Fixed long press near the edges of display

- Fixed thermal mitigation services

- Addressed some issues that had a negative effect on performance

- Updated to November SPL (android-13.0.0_r12)

- Add support for Face Unlock

- Add support for OTA updates

Full wipe is recommended if coming from another rom. For those that plan to use PA and actually stick with it (lol) there will be OTA updates whether it be full or incremental and your feedback is appreciated

Download from our website
[Google Pixel 6] ada12:
I have tested beta 2 and I Can confirm this release is serious, its stable in daily use !

Thanks
[Google Pixel 6] BenAmirul:
Wait.. this ROM support face unlock?
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
read the post
[Google Pixel 6] ogkillergreen:
Is there a list of features for this rom? What's the difference between this and stock?
[Google Pixel 6] rihards51:
could someone explain or am i doing something wrong cant seem to flash this room using fastboot,every time i try it i give me the error that is doesnt contain boot.sig and recovery.img
[Google Pixel 6] BenAmirul:
I tried this ROM. I noticed few things, might be bugs.

1. The notifications doesn't show on lockscreen. Only the small notification icons under the clock, not the whole notification. The notification setting been set to display all notifications.

2. I received 5G connection, but the icon does not showing 5G icon, instead it is showing LTE icon. When I tapped the internet QS Tile, it showed that I connected to 5G.

Maybe the dev can look into this. All in all, the ROM is amazing. Finally got to use face unlock on P6!

Thanks and cheers!
[Google Pixel 6] linezero:
So I after flashing the rom, can we lock the bootloader and get OTA updates and install them.
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
same issues here
[Google Pixel 6] DoubtTM:
Yep same here with notifications
[Google Pixel 6] sirhc:
1. I have no issues with notifications showing on the lock screen, are you using face unlock? It's been know that face unlock code in AOSP has issues and QPR1 is expected to fix most issues when it's released

2. I've had 5G in the statusbar previously, haven't tested recently because I'm not in a 5G area. Already looking into it
[Google Pixel 6] DoubtTM:
Yep, disabling face unlock makes notifications show up again on lock screen
[Google Pixel 6] suhanov914:
How update from paranoid 1.1 to 2 ?
[Google Pixel 6] BenAmirul:
Yes, I am using face unlock. Perhaps that is the issue.

Regarding the 5G icon, thank you for looking into it. The connection that I received is indeed 5G. I tested the speed with Speedtest, and it showed a speed ranging from 750 to 970 mbps. But the icon is showing LTE. Anyway, thank you so much for your time. Cheers!
[Google Pixel 6] linezero:
What is the release cycle for the build? Every month?
[Google Pixel 6] KardCreator:
Will there ever be non gapps builds?
[Google Pixel 6] Congrio:
I have version 2 since two days ago and everything works great. But, when reboot i get "Adaptive Connectivity Services" error, and, i can't enable fingerprint unlock.
[Google Pixel 6] Congrio:
Is this rom dead?
[Google Pixel 6] Thotho131097:
Hi!

Is there a bug reported regarding the status bar on top?

When pulling down once, both the correct and the statusbar shown when pulled down completly is showing for me.

Difficult to explain, see screenshot, it's overlappen eachother
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
unable to boot up into my system... bootloops when i try to. not sure whats happening.
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
this rom is dead asf, is this on first boot or was it working before
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
first boot technically lol tried once before
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
i wouldnt recommend using this rom, use smth like ricedroid or evo x
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
i decided to use ricedriod... i am getting the same issue bootloop after trying to enter recovery not sure whats happening
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
huh that's weird, wdym by after trying to enter recovery?
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
Recovery mode lol. I forget the instructions now but I am unable to go 'adb sideload <ROM>.zip because I cannot enter recovery mode.
[Google Pixel 6] w_tapper:
is bootloader unlocked?
[Google Pixel 6] catcatjpg:
Yes, I did everything I was told. I have installed roms before not sure why it is doing this now
[Google Pixel 6] Txdude35:
The ROM is still taking up space on their servers, so I wouldn't say it's dead. Per the PA chat on Telegram, they say it's not "dead, but needs some love", AKA a developer.
[Google Pixel 6] aimsjahan:
I am not sure about sharing non-xda links here, but you can search for their tg group. And they've supporting p6p from this month.

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.

Notice

We kindly ask all of you that are in a position to donate anything, to help and support us so we can provide better and faster build releases, as well as increase the download speed of our servers, all looking for your enjoyment.

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 6 Pro] i42o:
THANK YOU!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TaranS2001:
Cant seem to enable themed icons.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
Nice!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sirhc:
Build was missing themepicker, uploading new builds in a few
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Alaa mandani:
Perfect rom but there a way to hide pil bar
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jericho246:
I would like to know what themed icons will be used? Google's stock ones, Lawnicons or something else?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] XsBones2:
Is pixel 6 getting the update also. Thanks for all your hard waork.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] deepak jr:
Would you support this device for more than a couple months as you guys always seem to discontinue builds and we have to switch roms later. Really love the way your ROMs look and feel btw :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
I don't know if it's only me or what, but I find Touch & Holding on the sides of the phone don't register... touches do, but holds don't... I noticed when I was going to delete some characters when writing
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TaranS2001:
Rebooting fixed it for me
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TaranS2001:
new build seems to have fixed it, thx for the quick fix!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
Not for me... Still there
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] XsBones2:
I get a notification to become a beta tester but after hitting enroll button doesn't go anywhere just same page
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sirhc:
Ignore, just a test feature that accidently made it's way into the build
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
@sirhc do you know why would this happen?

EDIT: Nevermind, 1.1 fixed it :D
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] keaheng:
Is it allowed to make a thread without a source now?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TULOA:
Does Magisk work ok with this rom?

Trying to get any custom rom on mine but supposedly most have some issues with Magisk and I would rather not wait. The non flipped nav bar buttons is killin me lol.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] lampdoors23:
Excited to give this a try! Anyone know if pixel only features are still accessible and if the ROM passes safetynet?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jericho246:
Pixel features - nope

Safetynet - not sure if it passes when unrooted, but I had root with the safetynet fix and it did pass.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
Dang... When I reboot, I have no issues, like 10 minutes in or so, back when I get from sleep, it comes back :(
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jericho246:
It's not just you, I had the same issue. Had to go back to stock for the time being.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Poesini:
I'm sure @sirhc could lend us a hand here?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TULOA:
To clarify then Magisk works fine with this? Any precautions I need to consider first before flashing over to this from stock?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
yeah magisk probably works fine
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] puertorecon:
Do you have screenshots on the Pixel 6 Pro?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jericho246:
Yes, magisk works.

However, as stated previously, there's an issue with long touch not registering near the edges of the display. So for example you can't move icons that are near the edges.

I already had this problem in the past when using an incompatible custom ROM+kernel combo.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
Works ok on my p6p 😄 it froze and I had to hold power + Vol up to force reboot. Can't wait for more features. When I take a screenshot the editor doesn't open. I've always wanted to try the rom. Great work 👍

Edit. Some features seem hit or miss, I just took a screenshot and the image editor popped up but I got another freeze ☠️
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
Magisk works but idk about zygisk
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
safetynet pass?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sirhc:
Honestly not sure, I heard it was an issue with all custom roms at the moment, idk if it’s just a launcher issue or something deeper than that, still looking into it
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
The phone kept freezing. I didn't test safety net went back to stock
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
fair enough
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Have installed and was getting crashes/lockups. Flashed custom kernel (Kirisakura 4.2.0) and seems to be behaving so far. No lockups, charges fine, passed safetynet and zygisk working fine.

​
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
so you still have root access?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Yes
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
that's weird cause everyone else who has flashed kirisakura kernel on a custom rom has lost root
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] UglyAsSyn9:
my ota never kicked off... still on beta 1.1..... other than a little screen freezing (either temp related or sys ui stalling, not sure which) ive got everything goin strong. google pay and pokemon working just fine.

any chance i can get re registered as a tester? also... any chance of getting nexmon support for this kernel? ive got kali linux built in through termux but am denied access to bind sockets or switch to monitor mode.... I need, NEED access.

Kernel is prebuilt AOSP so no way to add support for other things for now

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Thanks for update, flashing now. With regards to kernel does this mean custom kernel will not boot with this rom or root is lost?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sirhc:
Can't speak for custom kernels, whether it works or not varies, I don't see why it wouldn't though
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Radioactive works fyi
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Could you look into adding increasing touch sensitivity for those who use screen protectors please? Bar that running nicely.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jlokos:
With root?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
yes
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
ooh might try
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
Ok it's early days 😁 but the rom is buttery smooth after the update - with root. I'll donate soon™
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
can you have root and a custom kernel on this rom?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
I thought I read about in the op . Don't think so
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
I pass safety net 🫡 but idk if my account has been flagged on maps

Edit . False alarm
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] passion8059:
Rooted with custom kernel. Checked safety net and pass fine.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
imma try that soon then
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rafapadilla93:
Hello,

Can someone tell me what are the features offered by this ROM? What options do we win or lose compared to the Stock ROM? In other ROMs there is a page where you can see what the ROM offers but with Paranoid I can't find any information. I only see that it has "face unlock".

Thank you!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] linus207:
Paranoid Android is AOSPA ROM so You shouldn't expect much more than stock.

Back on the days i remember running PA on old nexus devices and it was 1. Stable 2. Battery friendly. Definitely my fav from old times.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ada12:
Yes here I find solution for have Root in paranoid + custom kernel ( kirisakura )

Solution here Post in thread '[Kernel][08.11.2022][Android 13.0.0]Kirisakura 4.3.0 for Pixel 6/Pro aka "RAVIOLE"' https://xdaforums.com/t/kernel-08-1...pixel-6-pro-aka-raviole.4358435/post-87756665
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
can you please make a more in-depth guide? sorry but i cant really understand it all
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ada12:
MY GUIDE V2 - KEEP RECOVERY AOSPA & ROOT MAGISK

1) download cfig boot image editor ( linux tool for reverse engineering Android ROM images. if you have no mac or linux use Windows Subsystem for Linux(WSL) for more info see github of cfig editor ) & download kernel custom zip

2 ) open kernel zip - copy vendor_boot.img into cfig folder

3 ) unpack vendor_boot.img : enter in terminal : " ./gradlew unpack vendor_boot.img

4 ) copy folder kirisakura modules ( folder you want ex in desktop ) : full path here build/unzip_boot/root.2/lib/modules/5.10.152-Kirisakura_4.3.0

5 ) now you take vendor_boot.img of paranoid ( aospa fastboot download or payload.bin you extracted from aospa recovery zip ) , you unpack again : ./gradlew unpack vendor_boot.img

6 ) in build/unzip_boot/root.2/lib/modules you delete everything & you paste folder kirisakura you have saved before " 5.10.152-Kirisakura_4.3.0 "

7 ) you return in boot_editor_v13 folder path , now you repack vendor_boot : " ./gradlew pack vendor_boot.img "

8 ) you obtain vendor_boot.img.signed rename to vendor_boot.img

9 ) in kirisakura zip replace old vendor_boot.img to the new vendor_boot.img you generated

10 ) flash kernel custom zip & enjoy
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rafapadilla93:
Thank you, for the info! :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
i did exactly that and got a bootloop
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ada12:
you have disabled verification of vbmeta ?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
i think so. how do you check?

are you meant to root before or after this?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ada12:
in my devices I have always bootlop if I no do that take vbmeta.img of AOSPA and enter in fastboot :

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
i will try that tmr then
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
just had to flash the normal kernel and root is okay
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] BVST1:
Bro, how did you finally get the kernel and root? I would appreciate if you explain it to me, thxs
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] XMayhem2099:
Just flashed the rom, any reason why i only get lte instead of 5g?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] XMayhem2099:
you can flash the kernel through a kernel manager, and for root patched the boot img in magisk app
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
you do get 5g it just shows lte icon (tap on qs tile to show 5g)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] XMayhem2099:
Oh okay thanks!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] MidnightDevil:
The users that flashed this rom, care to report? Battery life and stuff? :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
Battery life actually seems better than stock for me, and the lag I experienced in rooted stock just doesn't happen and I've been using the phone a lot.

There is a glitch that sometimes comes up where the status bar icons seem to overlap, like there's two wifi icons on top of each other.

I have a problem with one crucial app for some reason, OneDrive force closes.. dunno what that's about.

Kudos to the devs though 👍 I could only donate $6 AUD but it's a token of my appreciation for the rom. As I said, it just doesn't lag, and the phone is much easier to use. Great ROM 😁
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sirhc:
For the statusbar icons overlapping, are you using face unlock? If so, it's an aosp bug, expected to be fixed in QPR1
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Pako0o!:
hi guys, i have not being around for a while but i saw paranoid have a rom for the pro and decided i wanted to try it , do i have to root the phone or just bootloader unlocked?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
bootloader unlock
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Pako0o!:
it works great so far, the only thing i get is the welcome to your new pixel (Tap for tips message) all the time in the home screen, other than that its working really well
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bigcat777:
Happened to me as well. It's the Google app. I had to clear cache and data on the app 2 different times.... hasn't come back for a couple of weeks so far...I'm sure I just jinxed myself! Lol
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Pako0o!:
It worked!, lets pray together to not jinx it!!! LOL
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 离心-:
Double-click the back to take a screenshot, can this function be added? At present, I see that all third-party ROMs do not have this function, and I am used to it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mfinlay04:
ROM has been great. Loving the face unlock, and quick pin unlock. Only feature I'm missing from stock pixel is the select button for recents. I use this feature so much, and missing it a lot with the PA ROM. Anyway to bake it into the next update?
