4.2/4/2 Beta Wifi Problems - Paranoid Android Q&A

I cant post this to the development thread so I thought I would report it here.
I have flashed to 4.2 Beta 3, as well as 4.2 Beta 2, and neither will allow my Wifi to work on GT-i9505.
It did work at the start, but I have tried a full wipe + fresh reinstall and I cannot get it to work again, on either 4.2 Beta 3, or 4.3 Beta 2.
It just wont turn on at all. Bluetooth works fine. I have tried restarting the phone, clearing dalvik etc.
There are a few others reporting similar problems now in the 4.3 development thread.

You will do better to take this to your device forum, as that device is not officially supported by Paranoid Android.

Issues with Custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos (GT-B5512)

Before I start posting, I would like to make the following points very clear:
[*]I'm a NOOB when it comes to complex programming knowledge.
[*]In no way, I'm trying to raise a finger on the developers of the ROMs and Kernels.
[*]Here I'm stating only the bugs I came across when I tested the ROMs.
The purpose of posting it here is Two-fold:
So that developers can notice it and provide a quick and effective solution.
It can act as a guide for other noobs who can decide which custom ROM to install.
NOTE: THE TEST DEVICE USED IS: SAMSUNG GALAXY Y PRO DUOS (INDIAN FIRMWARE: B5512DDXWLG1, BASEBAND: B5512DDLG1) RUNNING ON STOCK KERNEL AS WELL AS ON COMPACT KERNEL BY @Deadly.
This particular Model has 2 suggested custom ROM:

Though, It has not been long since I have started testing the Custom ROM, The initial stages have led to the following bug:
Unable to update Google Play Services and other Google apps. Google Play Services is necessary for the recent versions of many Google apps like Hangout, Gmail, YouTube etc. On updating Google Play Services via Play Store, it shows the error message "Package File is Invalid. Please uninstall the app and try again." On uninstalling the app using Link2sd and reinstalling it, it shows the error "Google Play Services is not supported by the current ROM in your device. Kindly contact the manufacturer for assistance." Please provide an immediate and detailed solution to this problem as the age-old versions of Gmail, Gtalk, YouTube is simply not tolerable.
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth do not work simultaneously. If Wi-Fi is switched on, Bluetooth wont work until Wi-Fi is switched off and phone is restarted. Similarly if Bluetooth is switched on, Wi-Fi wont work till Bluetooth is switched off and phone is restarted.

i stopped using hatyonRom about 18 months ago and so do not have the phone to investigate the issues raised. but seeing as wifi and bluetooh cannot be used concurrently in both custom roms, i postulate that it might be an issue with gb and not necessarily the custom roms. you didn't also tell us if both wifi and bluetooth work normally on stock rom.
i am pretty sure you misquoted the baseband for hatyonrom. check my signature to be sure.
on the issue of updates, those issues seemed not to exist at the time of development so i recommend you create a patch for it yourself. simply go to stock rom. update all the apps you need new versions for, make a nandroid backup and from the backup copy the updated ups and adb push them or make a flashable zip for the rom. you can share with others. lol
dsixda kitchen could be used to make the patch.:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Android 4.4.2 Omnirom

I read about an omnirom available for our captivate glides running 4.4.2
Anyone tried running this yet? How stable is it?
I found the link here: http://true-android.blogspot.ca/2014/03/update-samsung-captivate-glide-sgh-i927.html
I also dont know, for any rom that has separate gapps, when would you flash those? After or before the new rom? at the same time? Like, if after a ROM flash it automatically reboots, it will boot up with no gapps and likely not run - correct?
Was just curious about how buggy it is. Even if down the road when things are smoother, im excited to see if i can get this one running!

Gapps is included. You must install rom zip first, because it formats system partition.
Official gapps doesnt compatible with our phone, I think its better not installing.
hmm..

I am using omni ROM . . somehow I find it less buggy than cm 11
Nevertheless I would wanna give my thanks and even though I am pointing out bugs . . I really do appreciate his work .. A lot
Omnirom is very very stable has all if not most of the theming features except for trebuchet launcher
//It is a bit more battery consuming but I like it cause I am able to run my processor at 1.4ghz which is sweeeet!!!
//It has issues with OK Google functionality the audio is lagged and irritating
//The Google experience launcher is not built for it
//It has issues with Google maps 7 but there is a fix to have 6th version to back you up when needed
//it has issues with Skype and the fix is work in progress I guess..
//GPs is a bit slow but works
//WiFi direct crashes for me
Once in a blue moon the phone might rebot itself cause of a crash..
Though considering WiFi tethering , 3g switching, link2sd ,memory swapping
Ksm everything is working really try it . . its an amazing experience from an amazing phone
Can someone tell me the difference between wifi direct, wifi sharing, and wifi sharing manager??
Wifi itself is working in 4.4.2 right?
Also, were your keyboard backlights working automatically or did you ened qwerty led?
is qwerty led something that needs to be running all the time. or "ongoing" in the top drawer?
Wi-fi direct is a type of communication between two devices, similar to Bluetooth, so you can send files. I never used this, even when transfering big files from one phone to another, it's better to use an USB OTG cable - the connection speed is lightning fast!
Don't know what you mean about wi-fi sharing. Maybe wi-fi tethering (hotspot) - it's when you share your phone 2G/3G internet connection via wi-fi. This thing is working fine. Wi-fi itself is working, of course.
As for keyboard light: when tested OmniROM, I used liblight solution, but the qwertyled using is simple too: just launch it and you're done. While the service is running, keyboard light will work.
Now I'm on CM 11, and I have 11 days of uptime already, I recommend this ROM (but that's just my taste). In CM 11 keyboard backlights are working from the box, no need for qwertyled.
Also, I looked at the link you posted, to the true-android blog. Please, don't use the guide one can found there, it's awful. You can't install 4.4.2 ROM with recommended 2.6.3.0 TWRP, the correct one is 2.6.3.1 from bubor here, and you don't need any gapps beside included in the ROM.
Better use this guide from stormdude124: [UPDATED][2014][How-to]Everything you need to know and do to your Captivate Glide, it's updated, it's verified and there's no ads!

Can you use a cyanogen mod rom with clockworkmod recovery installed? i remember trying cyanogenmod with my phone and couldnt get it to work.
Just flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 from link above, it's superior to clockworkmod recovery (CWM) in all ways: touch interface, working backups with compression, charging support and it allows to install KitKat roms. With CWM you can install ROMs up to android 4.3, so, you still can install CM 10.1.3 or CM 10.2 with CWM, but not CM 11.
about wifi direct and sharing...

Hey yeah the difference btw wifi direct and sharing is that in wifi direct you connect two devices directly to transfer files...
in wifi sharing you need to host a web adress to share your files
as a result in wifi sharing you host a list of your stuff on a web adress(local) which gets downloaded by other devices on your wifi connection
and a wifi sharing manager can either do this (host ur files using an ip) or my personal favorite is astro which can acess my pc's sharing folder over wifi which is preety awesome>..unlimited storage
also note that in a wifi sharing manager you cannot recieve files easily . . maybe airdroid but it can only run on a pc
wifi sharing apps are airdroid and other file managers like root browser
wifi direct requires specific drivers and libs... i guess.. hence not all devices can do it ..
anyway you should go for cm 11 or omni both are incredibly stable with an occasional hiccup.. which is occasional heh
also would suggest that if you do proceed to install please follow from the developer sources on xda rather than some blog etc

[Q] PA 4.5 or 4.6 on GT-I9300 (Samsung Galaxy S3)?

Hi there,
I installed PA 4.45 and it was quite buggy on my GT-I9300 (I think my Samsung Galaxy S3 is a AOSPA / legacy device).
I upgraded to PA 4.5 beta 4. Seems quite stable for me. Good job guys!
In PA OTA I see only updates for 4.6 but no update for 4.5.
My question now is (for people who have experience with PA on the GT-I9300 and PA 4.6):
Is 4.6 using more resources (since I have a legacy device, I'm concerned about performance) or the general perceived performance would be similar to 4.5?
I want to know if it's better to wait for a final 4.5 release (will there be any, or updates will come only for 4.6?) or try 4.6.
Thank you for letting me know.
I have been using PA since V4 came out on my i9300. Can say that everything up to 4.6 was amazing, but ever since flashing 4.6 beta 4 (coming from 4.5 beta 4) I have nothing but trouble. Total system freeze (low ram probably) 10 ~ 20 seconds after booting, or 5 seconds after starting the first app. Since I haven't done a clean install in a while I'm giving that a try.
If I don't forget I will post the results.
[EDIT]
Also should mention the heating problems that came with 4.6 beta 4 (but that may just be the dirty flash after all).

Thanks for sharing your experiences, I was thinking to upgrade to 4.6 beta 5, but after reading your post I'm a bit afraid...
For now I'm experiencing with 4.5 beta 4 the following problems:
Often when I set a timer, after a few minutes I get an error (dialog with error) that the clock app crashed. But the timer still works... strange. Sometimes the timer then doesn't trigger the alarm in the end.
Also I get a dialog with an error of the ui that crashed. But the system seems working well anyway: no need to restart or so, just the dialog with the error...
See screenshots in attachment...
PA 4.6beta5
I'm currently using PA 4.6beta5 on my i9300 and it's excellent!
No issue, no problem.
Never had low memory problem.
But I've a clean installation (I've wiped all before install)
I have had a LOT of trouble the past few weeks, to the point where flashing a stock rom via odin wouldn't boot and crazy stuff like that. I think it might be hardware related, but after formatting everything and reinstalling it's been working fine now. Only thing is the heating/battery drain problem. It turned out to be google+, so disabling that in apps solved the problem. Running quite smoothly for over two weeks now.

PA 4.6 BETA 5 issue

Hi all,
I have a Find 7 QHD on Paranoid Android 4.6 BETA 4.
Got an OTA update this morning (BETA 5), installed it and I just get get black screen on boot that goes no further.
I also restored a previous backup and manually updated to latest beta with same results.
Has anyone with Find 7 had any luck with the latest PA 4.6 BETA 5? Wondering if it's something with my setup or the update itself.
Thanks in advance.
Same issue, tried from Beta 4 upgrade and clean install but both won't boot.
I can confirm that the latest update breaks PA completely (for me, anyway). Guess I'll just have to wait for the next big update.
Same thing happened to me...7a here
That sux, but I'm glad it's not just me.
Have seen many reports of this, guess I'm staying on BETA 4.
Hey, just giving a quick update to all o' y'all: The newest PA beta build boots without a hitch! I know that it's been out for some time now, but I just tried it and I seemed to have very few problems other than the processor refusing to go into its low power state (which also happens with Cyanogenmod for me, so I'm not sure what's going on there).
Anyway, happy flashing as always!

flashing it.. um... hope it not be auto looping in bootloader, i am using CWM + philZ to flash it.
Im looking forward to trying this rom.
Im just doing the last backups - ill report back later
---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------
It took a longer time than normal to install - like OP said. But it did flash, and it did boot (after a while)
However, there are no data connection, and there are no keyboard.
Any idea how to solve that?
EDIT:
I solved the problem with the keyboard.
Settings -> Language & input - > current keyboard. Slide the "Hardware" option to on.
Still no data connection
Data not working?
Data is not working on my T-Mobile note 2 after installing rom. I will get 3G for about 1 second and then it will disappear. It comes back every few seconds and then disappears again.
hello ub team ...
Team UB can you develop the same ROM for n7100 with all your tweaks and can you integrate touchwiz from s5 lollipop Poland release available on sammobile..see what you can do sir

cm12 mobile data
hey guys i installed this rom on my n7105 last night and when i got to use mobile data the 3g icon just blinks one once then its gone it doesnt work.. any ideas?
So far ive concluded that i really like lollipop
However, this version is unfortunately too buggy for me.
There are no data connection - and i assume there is no solution to that, since OP havnt responded to it.
Using the "call button" in the text notification isnt working either.
The system profiles, does not trigger on connecting to WIFI networks.
Good job porting the rom - but it needs a bit of work yet imo
Everything works fine except the wifi reboot thing and the application not installed problem. But anyway i love using this rom so much, so thanks for your work

No problems with data?
Is it t0lte you have, or one of the phone from an US carrier? like at&t or something?
Happy to say its been about 15 hours since install and I haven't had any issues at all. Phone, data, SMS, cameras, updating apps, FB, xda, email (gmail, yahoo), etc are all working fine. No issues, FCs or RRs to report! Definitely has become my DD! Thanks to the devs who have took the time to keep our GN2s still a force to be reckoned with! :thumbup:

We tested this rom on notes 2 7015 t going well but the call volume sounds very slowly compared to stock.
It applies to cyanogen 11
testing this rom so lets see
Issue when powered down and charging
First off want to say am loving the tomorrow and a big thank you to everyone for all their work the only issue I have found is that when I power down the phone at night to charge it freezes up on the empty battery image. Not sure if this is cause of the rom or not.
