2.531 doesn't change the nav bar colors. How did something fixed get broken again so fast from 2.53

Edit...actually, it does work now. It took time to take effect? Idk

Is there a reason why I have to flash the Google Apps and sign in at boot each time I flash without wiping data? I've purposefully been lagging behind on PA updates for this reason. No other Android device I've ever rooted or flashed as made me do this before. It's getting really irritating, because it also seems to break all my Google Authentication apps (greader, groveip, voice, etc).

I love the ROM, but if I have to keep losing all my Google stuff each time I update, I'll probably have to just stick with one release (not that that's an issue or anything)

2.531 is up with fixed power menu and a bunch of SQL edge case fixes

I updated to 2.531 and have had a small problem with the power menu. First time after updating Expanded Desktop worked, was able to enable and then disable. Next time I went to use it option wasn't there. When I go to the System item in the settings I have 2 Expanded Desktop options. One does nothing and the other activates right away. I can then turn it off via the Power menu but then the option disappears again.

Everything else works without issue.

When you flash the rom, immediately flash google apps (without rebooting). Then reboot once you've done that. You won't have to sign in again it'll just work

Doh. Didn't think to do that. I wonder why?

Anyways, thanks for the tip!

Pretty sure I can confirm this issue. My experience is below :

Not sure if it's just me but expanded desktop is broken. You can enable it in power menu, which immediately hides the navigation bar as it's enabled by default (not sure why). When you re enable the expanded desktop to bring the navigation bar back, the expanded desktop options is no longer available when you hold down power. Anyone else?

I get this behavior too, I need to do some wipes and then get some logcats to properly confirm though. This is may well be caused because expanded desktop functionality was added to cyanogenmod. So there may be two different implementations of it interfering with each other.

hi, how is the speed comparing to stock?

I wasn't aware of that merge, that does sound quite possible

Makes sense that their implementation might interfere. Read a post about it earlier today. http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...-hides-navigation-buttons-and-the-status-bar/

Looking on the paranoid android gerrit it looks clear that they are aware and have fixed the expanded desktop issue, the patches weren't merged until after the latest build so the next time we get a build this should all be fixed.

This commit fixes the dupe menu entry: http://review.paranoid-rom.com/#/c/283/

Problems with the 'per app navigation bar colour' fixed here: http://review.paranoid-rom.com/#/c/285/

Interestingly they aren't going to included the new cyanogenmod file manager: http://review.paranoid-rom.com/#/c/277/

Thanks for digging that info up for us. I will be holding off upgrading from 2.50 until then

Nice finds. I have to say I agree on not including the CM File Manager. Rom Toolbox Pro/Root Browser is the first thing that gets installed on a fresh ROM for me anyhow so a built in file manager is rather redundant.

Sorryguys, last cm sync made a huge, enormous mess, so much broke at once we didnt even suspect whats coming. I just updated to 2.53 on my nex7 and its basically screwed. We fixed some of it, but denesh rewrote the buttoncontrol and this one gives us some headaches but it'll be fine soon.

Please head to the nexus maguro section aswell for news about 4.2. Much will change, we're leaving cm to avoid outages like this for one. Pa will base on pure, optimized aosp. And theres some fresh features coming up you tablet users will love.

I'll post it here, if you don't mind

some news about our plans - we have talked things through and have a pretty good idea now what will come. here's what we're gonna do:

1. we will leave cyanogenmod and base on aosp. i explained why already, in short: aosp is optimized for our devicefamily, its the best base for nexus devices hands down. we'll be free of mods and changes that we dont support and we'll not suffer from the endless nightly process that will always make releasing a gamble.

2. we will cherrypick features back in that we think are needed, and yes it'll include some cm functionality like theming engine. all our own features will be back and hybrid engine will run underneath like always. the rom will be lightweight though, more stock oriented. we'll also use our own gapps packages to bring in the real google experience as aosp apps are kinda lacking connectivity.

3. we have a couple of things in mind that will again be fresh and new, this rom will be the new focus of our inventions. right now we're the only rom that has per-app dpi/layout and color, and it changed alot. this is still the only rom with a somewhat useful tabletUI. everyone who's tried build.prop tablet mode roms or that "real tabletUI" nonsense in aokp knows it. our upcoming modifications will utilize hybrid engine for many other things, we'll work on that launch-thing to open it up to user customization and eventually we plan a, as of yet top-secret, systemUI addition which will change the way people operate their devices, to the better of course.

4. cm-pa may still continue, we dont stop the git and people can always sync it up to date. but we'll not bother with that one for longer.

5. jesus will take over this thread, im gonna build for nexus4 and probably nexus10 unless we find a dev willing to take that one over. i will sell my nex7, aaron builds for it.

Wauw, big plans.
One of the reasons I use this was because it was cm based, and I had good experience with cm. Now however the features of paranoid are more important to me than cm features, and I have complete faith in the choices of cherry picks made by the pa team.
Really enjoying pa 2.5 still and looking forward to all future builds. Thanks pa team. And good luck!

I must say that I cant wait till you guys get a 4.2 build up. I dont think I will upgrade from 2.5 because I'm loving how stable it is for me. But pure AOSP = awesome!

Element515 · Nov 4, 2012

That sounds great... Does that mean no more trebuchet? I think I liked the stock launcher a little better anyway.

Should Paranoid Android change to an AOSP base.

Yes, AOSP base with a few features from cm

NO, stick with a cm base(current base)
