[ROM] [4.4.4] [OFFICIAL] [Paranoid Android 4.6]

[farenteria]

Any help here? I even tried flashing SuperSU but the install fails in TWRP. This is driving me nuts.

Could it be because I had flashed SuperSU on PA 4.5 BETA4 before I flashed 4.6? If that's the case, how do I revert back to Superuser?

I've already nandroid restored back to PA 4.5.

That shouldn't be the problem. Dirty flashing the ROM should give you superuser from ROM

Right but the Superuser seems to be borked after I flash the PA update. It won't let me press "Allow" when an app asks for superuser permissions.

Right, but superuser shouldn't mess with TWRP at all. Have you tried using a different recovery just in case?

I have not. Never had any issues with TWRP.

Guess I'll try another factory reset which I'm dreading.

And you using lux or an other app that draws over you screen?

Yea, I thought about that too but even disabling Lux won't allow me to press Allow. I can press "Deny" just fine though.

why is this rom soooo plain?!?! Paranoid used to have all kinds of customizations! This is ridiculous.

Try something else feature-rich then?

I'm using this ROM....I'm guessing hybrid engine is dead because Google killed tablet ui...or is it still in the works?

Xposed took the fun out of custom ROMs.

Wow, really? There are tons of roms on XDA that give you the customization options that you are looking for. PA decided a while back to go in a different route.

they are placed so well that you dont even know they are PA addons...they like completely blend in with everything else (the only thing that series 4 doesnt have compared to series 3 is the hybrid engine...but 4 has so much more that it really doesnt matter)

Its a great rom, only android 4.2 feature I miss is multi window.

but we still have it,

long press the hover notification and the app will open in floating mode (depending on what youre currently doing, you might even have to simply click it instead of holding it down), or long press an app in "recents" and just hit floating mode

PA has incorporated many customization features in a seamless manner in the user interface. You can access these settings in the "Backup & Reset" menu. Imo, it makes Paranoid Android unique in the sense that it's a custom rom with many custom features, but it still retains the look and feel of stock Android.

This is a place devs share what they have to us. They are here to help us and share the work they did. Show your respect, be grateful and stop complaining.

PA is always the fastest Rom with just the right amout of customization. Like others say, use other rom if you want something else.

We are here in PA because we like the way it is, not the way we want it to be.

Xpose is good, but I already notice it slows my nexus 5 and Nexus 7. At least gravity box slows things down.

Ive had this problem with only PA for as long as you guys have been on 4.4. When im running video streaming apps, I will get a soft-reboot from time to time. I've had this problem on both my old N7 2012 and now my N7 2013 but it seems it only happens when I use the PA ota to update. I know this has to be whats going on because if I use a web downloaded rom from a PC or from a browser on the tablet its self, this doesn't happen when I update. When I had my old N7 2012 and it happened (you guys swapped from 4.3 to 4.4), I was told it had to be a custom kernel when I reported the bug (even after specifying i had no such thing on my tablet at the time); I don't like installing custom kernels because of this exact issue and because I don't see a reason to overclock or undervolt something like a tablet. In the past, when installing kernels on various android phones I've seen this behavior but since I've never installed a custom kernel that wasn't packaged with a rom on my tablets, I've never seen this behavior except for on PA 4.4. Anyhow, I figured you guys should know, that something with the OTA isnt working as intended (possibly the run installing code) and maybe its just a few people who are using your rom who have seen this bug or maybe there are a bunch more that just haven't encountered the problem because they aren't using the apps like I am (i like to skip through videos a lot and the problem usually happens when I'm skipping around and the video is in the middle of buffering).

Am I missing something? I don't see any options in the backup reset menu other than restore preferences.

Yeah that's corrwnt. If you see the PA changwlog thread, you can see where all the features and where they all are hiding

 

[wikie]

Where exactly is the link to Pandroid, I can not find the download link.

Go to settings, battery, there are low battery settings and battery icon .

On your quick pull down settings, you Could select location settings, wifi and wifi ap settings..


There are quite some necessary settings/customization hidden here and there, when you use it, you know it.

PA does not have a separate tap in settings for customization. It is involved in the system whenever needed. You could reset all preference in the backup and restore settings.

PA is going on a more closed to stock and less intrusive way on its philosophy, which I do appreciate and admire a lot.


If it's not your style, there are some other good roms in xda. You might give them a try.
