beta 4 generally works fine but I have 2 issues:
-I constantly get a message that a number which I was calling is back accessible (normally I get only one, but that might be my provider's fault).
-I have an impression that battery drain is significantly higher than in beta 3, both with DSB disabled and enabled.
Am I the only one?
All in all, it might be just my imagination but I'm sure about is that this ROM is absolutely great.
Thanks, SuperHanss! (and, of course, PA team)

Also, SuperHanss, is there a chance that you will keep supporting Odin on Android L? I would be so happy if you would.
Sorry for the OT and thanks in advance!

I've never come across the first issue so it could well be provider related.
There are many varying factors when it comes to battery life. This might provide more information on what's causing it:

Android L is a maybe. There's no way of knowing if/how well it will run until the source is released. I don't see why not though, the Z and ZL aren't exactly ageing devices.

Happened to me aswell, device kept rebooting but was able to rollback to 3.4.0-cm-gfaa1635 trough recovery, there must be something else in your phone.

Just asking, is the hdr really not working because i dont see any hdr modes for pa 4.6 beta5
Performance
Hi Guys and SuperHanss,
may sound like a dumb question but I'm pondering on buying a Samung Galaxy S4 or S5 because I really like their performance and "snappiness" (apps open right away when you click them).
At the moment I own a Sony Xperia ZL and generally I'm relatively content with it but it lacks the "snappiness" of the smartphones mentioned above. It needs noticeable 1-3 secs to open apps after clicking them.
It just feels as if the performance of the ZL is not good enough, but based on the specs I would say it's a good device.
So is the performance of the ParanoidAndroid Rom for the ZL better?
I just want to know before flashing, because otherwise I will sell my phone und buy a Samsung one.
Can anyone (maybe even someone with a Samsung S4 or S5) share his/her experiences with me?
With the ParanoidAndroid Rom installed on my Xperia ZL will it have a performance (and stability) similar or near to the Samsung S4 or S5?
I appreciate all answers
Cant use mobile data 3g
my device can use 3g in sometimes it can use 5-10secs then it off 5-10secs and on again , how to fix this tell me pls:'(
Cant use mobile data, too
After the last Paranoid OTA Update:
I also got the problem with mobile data.
From time to time it's there for 1 second or 2, then it just goes away.
I already tried setting the APN and Provider, but it didn't work at all...
Please help!
ZR
plz make this for Xperia Zr..........
still has support?
do we get updates? or nightlies? been trying this for 3 days no updates or nightlies in my updater
Can you do anything about battery drain when signal is poor? It is always higher, but on stock it was bearable and on PA it's sometimes like 20-30% per hour, even when I'm not doing anything.
Also (not fully PA related), refering to your post in Yuga thread I assume Lollipop AOSP build will be skipped and you will release only PA build (hopefully for ZL too!)?
Thanks
P.S. @marc2777
There are no nightlies for PA, releases are usually weekly but they're not assured. Latest update for legacy devices was a few weeks ago, because whole team is working on Lollipop
battery life, high temperature.
Someone is having problems with battery life using Paranoid Android 4.6 beta5 on Xperia ZL ??
I did a fresh install of the latest version and am having problems with battery and temperature, the phone gets very hot even when I'm doing basic things like web browsing and using whatsapp.
I searched the PA topic for a similar case but not found anything, anyone have any idea what it might be?
when I talk of bad battery life, say something around 8 hours with 2 hours screen on with the auto brightness, 3G (lte off), GPS off, and regular use (email, whatsapp, web browsing, facebook)
Battery drain and mobile data issue
As I mentioned before I don't get any stable signal on mobile data.
From my experience this might connected to the battery drain issue. As I disabled mobile data and used WIFI instead (because let's be honest -- unstable mobile data is the worst thing ever), my battery drain was decreased by magnitudes.
Furthermore my ZL didn't get hot anymore.
We are talking about charging my smartphone twice a day before and charging it every two days after.
xperia deafult
I use last pa on zl

Would any of you who are currently running one of the 4.4 roms care to give some feedback on your experience - I've used CM 7-10, SlimBean 4.3, and Pacman 4.3 before on other devices...
Hopefully this isn't a redundant post, but I don't see nearly as much use feedback as I had in traditional threads that I've seen in other forums. Though there seems to be a much lower volume of people in this forum as well... Hopefully this doesn't piss off developers as that's not my intention... I need my phone to function as a daily driver... so I'm asking for feedback before I greatly alter my phone...
Do you use a 4.4 rom you use as your daily driver?
Are there any gotcha's or does the rom fulfill your every need/desire?
Does Wi-Fi work consistently/well?
Does bluetooth/A2DP streaming work consistently/well? Does the music app provide mp3 tag info via a2dp? (what music app do you use?)
How's the camera image quality? (I feel like the stock 4.3 camera leaves something to be desired with is sad... Has the CM team fixed sphere so it's functional/consistent? Does it do panorama shots?
How's system stability? (This may be meaningless if everyone's flashing nightlies everyday)
How's call quality?
Does your phone Heat up with basic use? How's battery life?

Well, I recommend you to read the threads about every 4.4 based rom, then you'll know most of the issues. I wouldn't use any of them.
Before my last Nexus 4, I had a Razr Maxx with 4.4.2 Slim rom. The first week using as my main rom everything was fine, fast, stable and battery saver. But all the problems started in the second week. Freezing at main screen, force closing most of the apps... I had to reinstall or even update to another version.
I got tired of that and rolled it back to Stock 4.1.2. The phone gained another stand. More battery life (3300mah was awesome), speed and stability. My sister still using it with the same version and she had no problems in five months.
If you decide to use, you'll need patience to keep updating your phone constantly till the final release.
The reason I'd created this post is because much of the information I was asking about wasn't apparent in either the FXP or Omni posts...
When I look at the 4.4 issues log on the FXP post, I see so many issues that would directly impact me, I'm concerned about actually running that.
Perhaps I'm finding the wrong threads, but there isn't alot of extra info in the ZL forums... I'm unsure if the Z forum posts apply.

Now i'm having problem with the process "com.android.systemui" it´s always showing that was interrupted
Backlight occasionally off
Sometimes, when I wake the device, the backlight is off. Changing the brightness setting will get the backlight to turn on, but this is only really possible to do in a well lit area so I can see the screen without the backlight being on. If this a bug or am I being stupid with something.
Using standard kernel and haven't played with the brightness meter settings.
Came here from LiquidSmooth
I'm using LS 3.1 with the Dirty-V kernel and 1350 MHz overclocked CPU, it's a very fast/smooth ROM but it takes too much RAM... GNL is often killed and I've a max of 4 average sized apps at once.
What do you advice me ? Is the Beta stable enough as a daily setup ?
Also I had lot of issues with PA GApps by the past, I'd like to know if it's OK to use Slim GApps with this ROM
Thanks in advance
Just wanted to say that the beta version on my vzw galaxy nexus has been running great since Saturday! Only one freeze, but everything I've tried (except stock camera, as noted) works great! Had to install the older Netflix apk and zoom fx but WiFi tether, gmail, NFL mobile streaming live games and red zone yesterday works with no problems. Its very smooth too!! Data and cache on f2f and dalvick, not art as suggested.....
Quandrant standard was a 3965. I don't really pay much attention to benchmarks but I thought I would run it and post results but I can't seem to load the screenshot? Ha
Certainly planning to run this as my daily and really happy too!!
Thank you for your hard work guys!!
Edit: has anyone running the beta version messed with force GPU rendering and/or disable HW overlays to see how the GPU drivers respond?
No baseband
I can also confirm that after upgrade to 15.10.2014 there is no network.
Baseband version: Unknown
mobile data not enable
i flashedd this rom..but my mobile data is no service..sorry my bad english..
It works with flashing the older boot.img from 08.10.2014
After flashing the boot.img from the 08.10.2014 rom image, now I have mobile network on 15.10.2014 image.
No service
I have installed just the rom and i dont have service, did i do something wrong ..
can you say me what i have to do "step-by-step"
hi
i have one question , is this ROM stable enough for daily usage?

The only problem that I have encountered with omnirom is the inability to use a USB stick with the otg dongle. I believe I read somewhere that it is an unresolved issue with the ROM. Does anyone have any additional info on this? Also, has anyone found a workaround solution to this issue? Thanks.
LCD density?
I'm taking the "stable" version of this ROM for a spin now, and I like it very much. The only thing I miss is the LCD density setting that some ROMs have (slimkat, c-rom). Did I miss this somewhere in the settings? Setting the font to small is the closest thing I found.
thanks for that
Google Camera
Google Camera 2.4.023 appears to fix the camera crash on 20141015 beta. It seem to be working just fine, for me at least. Is it the same for everyone else?
Installed FML yesterday, the only problem I have is this:
pictures will not load. neither on gallery, nor on wallpaper selection or third party apps like QuickPic. The image files are definetily there (can see them through my pc) but the phone cannot load them. Tried clearing the data on Media manager, cleared cache/dalvik cache but nothing yet. What's the issue here?
volume wake
Hello
thanks for the rom and can you put volume to wake device because my power botton is broken.
thanks
Thanks for the fast and smooth ROM. I'd like to put a request for a kernel update that allows color settings (color balance, gamma and contrast) to be changed, as the Galaxy Nexus screen is notoriously poorly calibrated. Trickster mod and other kernel tweakers expose these settings with most kernels but not here.
I read at the main thread. I've bootloop to. I did the right instructions, but it doesn't work. TWRP 2.8.1.0, latest version of bootloader
Beta KitKat
Is the KitKat ROM Beta stable enough ?
I've read about too many issues (screenshot, camera, ...)

Guys, I am using m11 snapshot version and I sense that the battery is draining very fast and the tab is heating up too . For example , I played 30min of hay day and lost 35 % of my battery and it was very hot while I played . Playing on my xperia ultra z for 1 hour and 30 minutes, lost only 27 % of my battery and it does not heat up like the tab . Anyone have these problems , is this normal? Some kernel to recommend I use , I'm using the stock cm11 kernel .
Best regards.

Try the latest nightly. I have made big changes to the interactive governor that reduce the power utilization.

Hi,
I've encounterd some issues when copying files from my PC (Windows 7) to the SD card inserted in the tab, both cnnected by the USB data cable.
The copy sometimes stops with an error message : the device is no more connected. In fact, it is still, and the tab begins to be slow. The only way back is to disconnect and reboot the tab.
As I had formatted the SD with the stock ROM, I re-formated it with CM : the issue is still present.
NB : the usb cable data is almost new (from September 14) and the SD card never bugged before (with stock ROM I mean).
Thanks

I have it as a system app. After I clear cache and wipe data and uninstall all updates and aplly you recommended version it crashes......But thank you anyway. It seems to me that youtube app can not be a system app, it can not be updated, you have to install it in clean way from the begining...

There have been a lot of camera changes lately. Can you ("you" being those reporting camera problems) remind me next weekend if it is still a problem? Nothing has changed in the device related to the camera and, given that I don't have a lot of time this week, I would like to make sure that those changes have stabilized before I try to see if we have a device specific problem that is somehow being triggered as a result of those change (aka, nothing has changed in our device so either the upstream changes are broken or they triggered a problem that was latent in our device support).

There was no way, as last night it still heats up a lot and the battery dies very fast , which does not happen in the damn stock rom.
I also get camera crashes on the October 26th and October 27th nightly. However, I was able to get an application called HD camera ultra to function with the back camera on the 27th build. So, at least third party camera apps can access the camera hardware as of 20141127. I also note accelerated battery consumption versus stock rom. I've dropped my maximum CPU speed to 1700 and forced minimum to 250. Hopefully I can squeeze a little more juice out of the battery. Overall, I still think this is a much better ROM than stock.

Hi, Chris,
I was at 400/1900. I never timed the runtime. It just seemed to need to go on the charger about twice as fast as stock. So, maybe 5 or 6 hours of occasional use in the day, versus 10-11 on stock. General e-mail, static webpage reading, Flipboard and Play News reading, etc. No video or YouTubing.
I did do a Hangouts videochat, yesterday. Front facing camera, audio and microphone worked fine. I tried to switch to rear and it crashed. So, that's cool. I use front camera more than back. I typically take photos with my phone, not the tablet.
What's the optimal scheduler? Interactive?
Thanks for your work on this ROM. Even though the SM-T520 has blazing hardware, I was a little envious of my GF with my old Galaxy Tab 10.1, since it ran CM11 just fine. Now I have the best of both worlds.

Should the 15th of August ROM update happen through the phones update thing?
I have a data network issue and I'm not sure that update fixes the problem but I just dont want to reflash my phone.
Hi, everyone.
How many P8000 users have flashed recent 0815 stock? Have you noticed any issues?
It is a bit suspicious that Elephone removed the download link to this ROM from Elephone BBS, replaced with Update soon notice.
I guess they fixed the camera, but probably broken something else, so hesitating to flash this one.

Hi, thanks for feedback. Well, it doesn't seem like a drawback for me. I myself have an average of 48 hours on full charge (using 25/07 stock ROM, tuned with L-Speed), so 26% in 12 hours seems quite reasonable. ) Of course, it heavily depends on your system config/apps.
Any other obvious bugs/crashes may be?

Hi, thanks for the feedback.
I guess Ele guys did only fix the cam and some other fixes like description says, and left anything else at least untouched, did not bring any new bugs in the ROM ).
I think I'll wait until the end of the week may be for the update on Ele BBS (still wondering why they removed the download link), and then give it a try on my P8K.
0815 rom seems alright though I still have the non-working wifi issue at times where you have to off/on it to get it running again(though it shows as connected in the notif. bar
problems with the stock rom
I flashed my Elephone p8000 today with the P8000_20150815 rom and 3rd party camera apps are working now. I got a few problems with the drivers, but finally made it. But the problem is that when the phone is locked, i cant pull down the notification menu. Otherwise the notification menu works, but not on the lockscreen.
Edit: auto shutdown works,but after it restart automatically, phone is hanging. Manual restart and i can use my phone again.

I am on 15/08 stock rom..the phone turn off its own when it is standbye..has anyone had experience this??
Hi, I'm using the stock ROM and I noticed that, if I change the notifications sound, after a while (maybe a day maybe 2) the elephone "decides" to reset to the default notifications sound. Same problem with the incoming call sound.
Is there somebody else experiencing this problem?
Hi,
I bought used LG G3 (failry new), and since I've got it, I can't stop fiddling with roms from XDA repository. Got the phone with android 5.0, but the battery included was pretty bad, 1% drop every minute or less. Bought new battery, 1% drop on every 3 minutes, seems fine, at least to me considering the screen resolution. That would be 4-5hrs of SOT. I wanted to try android 6.0, so I flashed D85530B_Europe.kdz. Was testing it for two days and it seems that the battery usage was worse, and I realised that some of important apps that I will use don't support 6.0, so I've decided to go back to stock 5.0. Since in the rom file repository there are TONS of roms, all with similar filenames, I've read somewhere here that I can go with UK Europe General D85520I.kdz, and so I did. Now I'm on 5.0 (UK Europe General D85520I), the battery usage seems ok, but now my GPS is not working at all. Using GPS Status app, it sees 19 satellites, but can't connect to a single one! My fault was that I didn't tested the GPS properly when I took the phone, but I did one short GPS test with HERE maps, and it was working pretty bad, it was offline 80% of the time, so I guess it is a hardware issue.
Now, can you help me to choose the most stable, fast and most friendly on battery rom? Doesn't matter if it's LP or MM, if it is working without issues. Also I wanted to flash CM, mostly because they say it is the best in terms of battery usage, but I'm afraid to brick my phone. I'm also interested in Fulmics rom. Can you suggest the most stable and bug-free custom rom for LG G3?
Please include the filename of the KDZ file, because I can't make a difference looking at the filenames, I'm still not sure how do you guys do it.
Also, if you know how I can fix GPS, including opening the phone, I would be happy to try, GPS is the pretty important to me.
Thank you in advance!
Cheers!

OK, so what I'm thinking is that you won't care if its aosp, I recommend either crdroid 7, which is nougat and has exceptional battery life. You could also use Tesla N, which is what I'm using right now. The only reason I use it is because on OMS support and Pulse.

Thank you for your response, but honestly I don't understand all the terms you are using. What is AOSP? Where I can find CRDROID 7? Is it tested properly, means no issues with camera, bluetooth, gps, etc? Tesna N is also a custom rom? What is OMS and Pulse? Sorry for questions, as I've said, I'm lost with all the terms, kinda new with flashing Android.
Cheers!
Note with any roms cm13 and above that are aosp hence (custom roms) you will sacrafice 2 things. Your speakerphone, and your camera image quality. People you talk to on speakerphone will hear themselves echo when they talk to the point they cant stand it. The quality of your images will lower...when you send mms the quality on their side (the person you sent it to) will be lower. If your like me this is annoying that these simple things dont work correctly...dont get me wrong, they are excellent roms...cm13 based roms are quick snappy and really fast, and stable. I just wished everything worked...i am on fulmics 6.7...its a stock based rom that you can still mod to your liking...speakerphone works and has tbe stock camera...it is ported from the LGG5...i love it. And again...im not downing cm13 roms...they are great and these developers are awesome...it you want the best rom though were all functions work i would suggest fulmics definitly...another great one is xdaddebs 3.1.1. It is a heavily modded rom with the weight of aosp...super fast...almost went back to it the other day

Lastest crdroid 7.1 and tesla 7 everything is working properly...like i said with these custom roms speakerphone will not work correctly and camera quality will be slightly diminished

Most ppl dont use speakerphone...i however use it all the time
Thanks!
I will consider either fulmics or xceed kernel on stock 5.0, still undecided.
One issue stilll to solve is the non-working GPS, no idea can fulmics rom make it to work.
Cheers
Works for me...i would really suggest the 6.7 build though of fulmics...you download 6.6 then you install and then download the 6.7 file and dirty flash it through twrp

Well, I was on Fulmics 6.7 for two days, testing it in detail, and sadly went to 5.0 stock today (restored the backup from TWRD). I really couldn't stand the stutter in 4K video, and GPS couldn't connect to any satellites at all. Except these issues, Fulmics is an amazing rom, stable, smooth and pretty fast.
So, should I stay on 5.0 (UK Europe General D85520I.kdz) or upgrade to some 6.0 rom (for example D85530B_Europe.kdz)? Really not sure is there any difference between any stock 6.0 roms that can be downloaded here, I can only make a difference related to the file name. If there is ANY 6.0 rom that is IDENTICAL to stock and WITHOUT bloatware, I would be happy to flash it, but still not sure is it going to be 100% identical like the stock (proper 4K without stutters, good GPS, etc).
Although I'm quite sick of searching and testing numerous roms, doing that for the past week, I'm willing to try one more rom and to finally start downloading apps and to start enjoying using the phone.
Thanks in advance!
