Paranoid Android 4.2 for the ZL - Testers needed

[SuperHanss]

Hey guys,

I'm the Paranoid Android maintainer for the Xperia Z and I've had a few people ask me to build Paranoid Android for the ZL so here is a test build (PA 4.2 BETA1 KitKat):

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407580322

PA Gapps here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

Please test and report back.

Cheers.

PS - There is no PIE or Peek features in this ROM as they are closed source.

Same installation as any other AOSP/CM ROM:

- Fastboot flash the boot.img from the zip (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
- Boot into TWRP, do a Factory Reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache
- Flash ROM and PA Gapps
- Reboot

Yes it should be stable, after all the ZL is pretty much identical to the Z. Try it and report back

Yeah, this rom run very smooth :good:
Can you add Peak & PIE feature to rom in next update

I'm just waiting for the PIE sauce *chuckles*, as soon as I get that I'll build a new version and create a proper thread.

As for Peek, because it's a new feature, legacy devices (pretty much everything other than Nexus devices) won't see it for a while as it's closed source. It's also fairly buggy and battery life takes a massive hit at this moment.

I understand it
Hope you release a new update soon:good:
Thank you for a good job, man!

Guys could you test calls for me, there are reports of a bug with the Dialer with CM sources.

Cheers.

Calls work fine, in fact the earpiece seems louder and more clearer than omnirom :good:

btw is the ART runtime optimised or modified?
because switching between dalvik and ART seemed too fast as compared to other roms(nearly same apps)

Okay thanks, and yes ART has been optimised.

just noticed something obvious, the calls would cut frequently against the face, if 'knock on' and "power button ends call" are both enabled.......the clear reason being, if the phone is moved when across the face, the screen registers a double tap and hence sending the power key input to the device(as the screen is off because of proximity sensor).

This probably is a common thing for all the double tap to wake roms, posted here for a headsup

Here is the official PA thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690755

For those that are already running the test build you should be able to use Paranoid OTA to update.
