Development Paranoid Android Topaz 1 - Nothing phone (1)

[herna]

Why share the throne when you can be the only one?

Not actually that, but our device isn't fully working yet and we are working on it.

I don't feel proud of releasing stuff until it's at least stable, that doesn't mean complete. It applies for features as well, not only device trees.

How do we get back to 1.1.4 EEA when the tool on Github don't work?

Can't just use fastboot flash 1.1.3 update like this rom.

EDIT i figured it out, if people have trouble it is
1 download super.image from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-unbrick-nothing-phone-1-fastboot-bootloop.4501439/
2 https://github.com/sh4tteredd/nothing-phone-1-tools and download the fw file. edit download.ps1 to get url, then extract using the https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...one-1-update-04-08-2022.4470155/post-87185467 and put files into image folder
3 boot into fastboot and do fastboot reboot bootloader , i edit flash_all.bat and copy paste commands, do fastboot -w then fastboot --set-active=a after do fastboot reboot fastboot and continue to copy paste all the commands from the list until you come to fastboot reboot bootloader and fastboot --set-active=b and fastboot reboot fastboot then after those you gotta do super image again flash, then fastboot reboot fastboot and do fastboot flash abl_b ./images/abl.img and so on until you are done on b

We are very excited to announce the alpha of Paranoid Android Topaz, based on Android 13.

On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with beautiful wallpapers from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app from the PlayStore.

Our builds are based on the Code Linaro Organization Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

We kindly ask all of you that are in a position to donate anything, to help and support us so we can provide better and faster build releases, as well as increase the download speed of our servers, all looking for your enjoyment.

Yes simply look a few pages back.

 

[aayush_mohan2001]

Download stock ROM and flash it like you flashed PA.
You might need to wipe again

can find that stock rom

 

[siwan05]

sdk tool only

Can you send it to me as well? Getting the same error in recover that I cannot flash an older fw than current.

Thanks!

 

[nickholtus]

Using this rom now for 2,5 days.


First of all: much better experience than stock.


Few things i noticed:

* Random glitches in ui and video (hard to discribe, looks like an old television with no signal, we call it "snow") this happen on 1/4 to half of the screen

* Random reboot (happened 2 times)

I dont know if logcat or something would help in solving/finding the problems.

If i see a reliable way to reproduce these problems to help find the cause i will post it here.

hello, I was in european NothingOS 1.1.4 and updated to this Paranoid Android with "fastboot update" and now I can't get back to NothingOS. I have tried:
flash utilities
Manually flash file by file extracting payload.bin from 1.1.3 but I can't "upgrade" to a minor version and there is no European 1.1.4 full ROM
I stayed in Bootloop for a while but I was able to install Paranoid Android by downloading the recovery version and installing it file by file extracting the payload.bin file but that's all I could get. I can't get back to NothingOS at all.

I'll follow the tutorial but it doesn't work for me because I'm in european 1.1.4 so I want to understand how he did it

I was euro 1.1.3 when I did it, 1.1.4 is the same, in fact, you don't really have to care your version when following the tutorial. Flashing the super.img make your phone brand New. So from wichever version you are, you Can follow it
