Paranoid Android for Gtab


Ok people, here is my best PA build so far. It has much improved gaming abilities, much fewer crashes, and the graphics glitches are all but gone. Probably still needs work, but everything I want out of it, I am getting. Your input, good or bad is invaluable for making it and other Gtab roms BETTER.

Please use a 350mg partition, per teamdrh's nvflash.
1. boot into recovery, wipe data/ factory reset
2. go to advanced, wipe dalvik cache
3. go to mounts and storage, format system.
4. Load rom from PC, and flash
5. On first boot, after the boot animation, there will be a blank screen for about a minute while the paranoid settings initialize, this will look wrong, but it is AaaaaaLRIGHT.
6. After boot,the initial setup should be:
A)Go to SETTINGS>SYSTEM>NAVBAR and turn on softkeys
B)Go to SETTINGS>paranoidsettings>and check tablet mode for all three. I also recommend changing statusbar to 120DPI, then apply changes and reboot.
7. Boot into recovery, and flash GAPPS, I recommend:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1918484&highlight=gapps+market+only
(choose the jellybean package, and thank the guy)
Any other gapps I recommend installing individually from the market, but you can use the GAPPS from the smoothbean thread too

THATS IT! You're ready to roll,mod,play, whatever.

For the GAMERS:

With the intitial setup, along with overclocking to 1200mhz, deadtrigger plays flawlessly. I had one crash in a total of five hours of gameplay over three days.
For Gt racing, and some other gameloft games please hold power button, then turn on "EXPANDED DEKTOP"

Same goes for NBA JAM

For Mass Effect, go to SETTINGS>ParanoidSettings>apps>mass effect>and set it to 140 dpi, then check "force" and large screen"

Frontline commando, working great for me, but JesseJamez reported a couple of crashes, so I dont know what the deal is here.

For any game that crashes, the first recommendation is to turn on EXPANDED DESKTOP. THE SECOND RECOMMENDATION is 140 dpi, then the 3rd is 140 dpi with EXPANDED DESKTOP.

NBA2K13, plays but it lags, I think this is the limit of our GTABS!

Six Guns: version 1.0.6 that I posted previously works great

If you cant get your game to work, please try to find a previous version of the game if you cant get it through settings changes

CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS:

*Fixed for permissions in kernel for IO scheduler, can now be changed in Settings>performance
*merge latest from CM10
*merge up to PA version 2.54
*various tweaks for stability, hurts the speed, but helps tha GAMEs!
*proper implementation of newest NV libraries posted on github by plastikman, along with latest commits to the 2.6.39 kernel
*you can now go BIG, up to 240dpi


SO....SHOULD I USE THIS OR SMOOTHBEAN?????
Well, if you are a NBA JAM nut, or you have parents who need it BIGGER, this is the rom for you.
Otherwise, there is no need to switch from smoothbean other than curiosity.




HERE YOU GO>>>>>

******KNOWN ISSUES: If you have any developer options on, it may break antutu, just flip switch at top off. one game i tried would software loop until I switched these off too, so its something else you can try.**********

Good news guys. I got all the PA settings to work. THe tab had to be set up as a phone first, then you can change to phablet, or tablet. And, for gaming, all the per app DPI settings now work. Nobe is going to activate the ZRAM for me, and fix the audiopolicy.conf for HDMI audio and we will post later today, so please hang tight, I promise this next one is GOOD TO GO!

I think there are GAPPS for paranoid. Check their site. I will also look into this. Plus, make sure that if you run full gapps, you may need a 350meg system partition, using the teamdrh 350 PREP.

Once again, please go thank fosser or any other teamdrh member somewhere for making this possible.

Not being rude, i guess I don't no how to pick the right vebage

Testing and stuff

Hi people!

Thanks redeyedjedi! Installed here with no problem. Still in test, so...
Seems very good.
Well, no gapps yet. My benchmark is attached. Weird, my database io is always low...

On menu "performance" I can't change i/o scheduler. It's on "noop", when I open and change to other option, still "noop".

Well, good job and thanks!

Sorry for bad english

Did you happen to do a full wipe before install? Something trailing over from a different ROM might be holding you back. The update script states in it to format system, but I think the settings are different from mine and it might not be doing a full job. Always wipe before switching (System, Data, Cache, and re-partition to the specs needed so nothing gets left. I did some testings and this ROM also buffers and Stores on the Data app partition like all others. So as a reminder if you only do a re-partition during installation you will loose all data and have to setup all over again. ;)

    Kitchen is done.

    GET IT

    Yay, im super excited!! THANK YOU OP!!!!!!!!!

    How is everyones experience going so far?

    I would love to give this a go, but I just BEARLY got my smoothbean set up and running. How you you guys feel they compare in terms of stability and battery?

    Thank you,

    It is 95% the SAME rom. PA has different settings, UI control, thats it. The only other difference is that this one has updated cm10 code from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2. It does put up better numbers, but if you would wait just a little bit, i have an updated version on the way where it all works as it should, except for one little tweakable setting for I/O.
