Hey educk, thank you for the ROM ^^
Everything works fine so far except two things
- GPS: In Settings GPS is enabled but apps don't search the location anyway. GPSTest shows that GPS is disabled but other apps show it's working but they don't search (number of satelites = 0)
- Wifi strength: It's not a bug but in comparison to CM11.0 it's a little bit weaker I think.

EDIT: I would like to say that if you change disable low RAM in Advanced Settings it's irreversible.
Disabling low RAM (or enabling - in any case change it) it makes your display brightness to 100% at reboot even if you change it back(and Tapped Out won't work anymore xD)

Hi!

Thank you for report! You are right, the GPS is not working on the current build, I will try to fix it ASAP!
About LowRam Switch, I tested now and it switches fine, I don't know what's the issue over there. Also, ART is a bit unstable, make sure you are running a compatible gapps package (odexed).
Would you mind telling me which Gapps are you using ?

Hey there,
I also installed this rom, I've been loving PA for a long time. This one also performs nice, overall performance is pretty good.
GPS problem is also confirmed here, but the low ram switcher works fine.
I'd like to ask if older PA features, like Paranoid settings, system DPi changer(phablet, tablet mode), themes, etc. will be implemented?

Changelog in second post!

I'd like to ask if older PA features, like Paranoid settings, system DPi changer(phablet, tablet mode), themes, etc. will be implemented?
All previous PA features such as Hybrid Engine (DPI), PIE, Peak and the new HALO (called HOVER) will be slowly rewritten by the PA team members. PIE and Peak are already finished but the sources are not public yet, they are only available on official releases.
As soon as the sources go public, I'll provide builds...

Enjoy! :)

[...] Would you mind telling me which Gapps are you using ?
I'm using the PA Micro Modular Package (~86MB) because of its size (and because of the fact that the Google Stock one has been aborted :p) . Our device hasn't got much internal storage volume for system partition unfortunately.

I install the new build later and give a report by editing this post then.

EDIT: GPS works. It takes some time for the first time but that's normal for SGS+ :)

EDIT2: I've got the "100% brightness at reboot" again.I've done a logcat via catlog.

Code:
03-23 22:31:44.510 I/WindowManager(525): No existing display settings /data/system/display_settings.xml; starting empty (Line 863)

03-23 22:31:47.022 F/SystemServer(525): 	at com.android.server.power.DisplayPowerController.requestPowerState(DisplayPowerController.java:658)
03-23 22:31:47.022 F/SystemServer(525): 	at com.android.server.power.PowerManagerService.updateDisplayPowerStateLocked(PowerManagerService.java:1911)

These two are suspicious I think but here is the full one as atachement.

Hi rboy,

could you please describe your problem more detailed ? I mean: Do you encounter this problem with automatic brightness or if you set it manually ? Because i tested it on my testphone once with manually setted value of about 20 % and after reboot it has the same value. If i find the time later i try with automatic setting.....

You could also have a look at the automatic brightness values and check the value of the snsor within the menu - mine has around 600 to 700 LUX in the office - and maybe have a look on the curve of values dedicated to each brighness level...

Please report back so we can dig down to your problem... you can also pm me to prevent misunderstandings due to talk to eachother in a foreign language ;)

Cheers

Rhonin

I made a video (quality is not the best, but it's possible to see the problem). Here you go:
http://www.firedrive.com/file/3D9CBE8095A6B1E0

Btw, the problem didn't appeared directly after installation. I've got a hypothesis that the Xposed Installer could be the reason but after deactivating/uninstalling the problem still exist. But one thing is clear: Xposed Installer is responsible for forcing Tapped Out :)
