How is the Dialer working in this ROM? Because it is horribly slow in hasta's CM12.1.
Dialer works, but the ROM don't is stable :p

How are going works, @Epirex?
Unfortunately, I have bad news .. Paranoid Android is dead. I will continue working in this ROM (Because it's my favorite) but right now I'm playing with Marshmallow

new build of Paranoid Android possibly next week :)

Best lollipop ROM for s advance in my opinion. I was using build 28/09 for few days. Cache/data in f2fs. So smooth and fast. WiFi failed to start for the first time after a reboot but if you turn it on/off once then it works fine. Sadly i had to roll back to CM11 cause of the low incoming call volume bug which was really annoying. I couldn't hear anything outdoors. Is this fixed in the latest build?

PS: Low incoming call volume bug isn't mentioned in the bug list. Anyone else having this bug or it is just me?
