FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I "dirty flash" updates to Paranoid Android?
A: Usually, yes! I will try to make a special note next to the download section when clean flashes are recommended, however I am not perfect and may forget. Please always read the information in the latest Changelog to avoid any hassle.

Q: The Paranoid OTA app says my gapps need updated. Is this really necessary?
A: Nope! Google Apps are automatically updated via the Play Store, and therefore do not need to be updated manually. Additionally, if "dirty flashing" a new version, Paranoid Android automatically backs up Google Apps and restores them, so they are not necessary. However, when clean flashing (if you manually wiped the system partition), it is recommended that you use the latest gapps from the Paranoid OTA app.

I love how stable AOSPA has been for me in the past. I've had the least amount of issues running it. Only thing I would love to see is quiet hours built in like CM11 and notifications on the lock screen like Carbon. Other than that, I can't wait for 4.4.3 to come out.

One thing I want to point out before it does come out is CM11 is having an issue with aftermarket kernels when it comes to changing the LED; it causes Settings to FC. Now on Ayysir's builds this never worked but if someone else were to attempt this, maybe they can look into that before syncing with CM11 and releasing the next version?

I'm having no trouble with lean kernel 9.7

I haven't really used PA a lot, but I've always liked it. (My devices were always crappy, unsupported devices) Does PA usually support lockscreen notifications, like PAC-man does?

Not officially, but there are apps on the app store that do this.

Here is a popular one (free version, paid offers more features): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.knock.knock.demo

I dirty flashed from the previous build and had no issues. However, my friend clean flashed and did not have a keyboard. We had to flash the previous build and then dirty flash the new one. The MD5 sums of the ROM and GApps were both correct.

Where do to go to change your answers to those, "ask me again later", questions?

To reset those pop-ups, go to System Settings -> Backup and Reset -> Reset Preferences.

Yes you can certainly try dirty flashing if you want. I'm just passing on what the PA team recommended in the Changelog.

Sometimes flashes just Bork and you have to try again. Also using custom kernels can introduce more bugs sometimes.

Glad you both got it working!

We actually tried the clean flash several times. No custom kernel. Has anyone else had this issue?

Hmm not that I have heard of. Did you try with the latest GApps package?

We used 05-31 full modular. That's the latest, right?

Yes that's the latest right now. With that package you should at least have the stock AOSP keyboard. Not sure why it's not working. If you really want a clean flash, you could try using the stock gapps package, or add in the Google Keyboard with the full modular package to see if that helps.

Three devices (d2vzw ML1) all loaded PA 4.4 Beta1 (with PA kernel).

Got through initial setup, then loaded KT 06-03 AOSP kernel; no problem.

One (mine - work phone) will not boot with KT kernel.. again, same install procedure..

> adb shell
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

All devices were previously running TW (old&slow 4.3) - with KT.

Suggestions?

(boots with lk for KK - fwiw..)

4.4 Beta 1 - TIBU complains about su binary being out of date..

Suggests SuperSU..

It will boot and run w/ lk; but that stutters when I'm typing; running with the default PA kernel till I can work out a resolution.

therobut · Jun 7, 2014

I've always used LK with no problems. I suggest trying the newest lk 9.7

Unfortunately I have no experience with KT, so I can't speak to it directly

MrBrady · Jun 7, 2014

I was a little confused in the OP, does this have hover, but not theme manager?
