For having the best battery life from a ROM , follow these steps:-
1. Before installing a new ROM , charge your phone to 100%.
2. While connected to the charger , flash the new ROM and wipe the battery stats in recovery.
3 .After flashing the ROM , let the battery drain to 0% and let the phone get switched off by itself.
Follow this cycle for at least 2 times.
This will help the new ROM and the new kernel( If the ROM has one) in settling and this cycle also follows for installing a new kernel and always wipe dalvik when changing kernel.

For having better performance , follow these steps :-
1.In developer options , change all the animation to 0.5X.

FAQ's - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What's so awesome about this ROM?

A: Its an Xtra-hybrid ROM. Read First Post .

Q: Is a full wipe needed?

A: YES , If its first time you are flashing the ROM
NO, it is not required, but it is strongly recommended. If you choose to do a "dirty" flash, please do NOT post bug reports or issues you are having, as something from an earlier release might be causing the issue.

Q.Why i can't see paranoid settings in settings menu?

A.Paranoid Team has kindly requested not to include paranoidpreferences.apk in the ROM (which is completely understandable). That's the bad part , now the good part is that the framework still supports paranoid settings . So all you need is to download paranoidpreferences.apk and place it in system/app with permissions rwrr (If you can't find it , PM me).

Q.Why the superuser DPI is too big ?

A.Download the P.A.C. Fix
Unzip it.
Place it in system/etc/paranoid and replace the files already present in it.

Q. Why the call in volume is low?

A. It's known issue of CM10 but a dirty patch by letama has been done to improve the call in volume. Don't worry it will not harm your device , it works absolutely perfect , i have tested it myself. You can find that kernel in CM 10 thread (If you can't find it , PM me).

Q. How do i disable dual panel view in settings menu ?

A.Go to AOKP menu, in general UI >enable dual panel ,reboot your device , this will make aokp settings dual panel , go again into aokp menu , disable dual panel , reboot your device , the tablet ui will be gone from the settings..

Q: I Can't see media in gallery or apollo. What To Do ?

A: Make sure you don't have corrupted files in SDcard, best way to check is to copy all your SDcard data to PC.

Q: Why Phone soft reboot's while playing video?

A: Disable HW overlay in Settings>>Developer Options. It's a known issue

Q: I want only 1 row of toggles/power widget, not both, how to disable one of them?

A: To disable CM's power widget, you know how. To disable AOKP toggles, ROM Control>Toggles>Enabled toggles>De-Select everything

Q: How to turn on Nav Ring feature in AOKP ROM Control?

A: You need to install gapps, Google Now to be specific, because it's a default Nav Ring

Q: I flashed this awesome ROM but I don't have Google Apps. why?

A: You simply have to download the gapps from download page and flash via recovery.

Q: Is Project Butter working on this ROM?

A: Yes, Project Butter in included.

Q: I'm having an issue and want to report it but I don't know how.

A: First, check if someone else has reported the same issue. If no one has reported the issue then make a post describing your issue. Don't forget to attach your logcat.

Q: I keep reading about this "logcat" what is it and how do I make on?

A: "The Android logging system provides a mechanism for collecting and viewing system debug output. Logs from various applications and portions of the system are collected in a series of circular buffers, which then can be viewed and filtered." To learn more about logcats and how to create them please refer first post

Q: Google play doesn't download anything , What To Do ?

Which Gapps would u recommend gentlemen and what is the difference between them? Also i am on PAC 18 with the NOVA 007 kernel... will that make a problem in any way?

I would recommend 4.1.2 gapps as most of the google apps gets updated automatically and 4.2 keyboard can be found anywhere .
No it will not make any problem , just follow the installation procedure..

Kind request to you , please edit your post in first page as i don't want that kind of comment on the first page. Thank you

Fair enough... :) My bad for reacting this way... The 2 gapps are the same as i noticed, same dload links... The keyboard im using thumb keyboard that i have modified and arranged it to be better than the stock, so its not a problem... Now i only wonder what are the main differences with the release and how is it better... Ill try and see, thank you :D
