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:

(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.**********
