PA has always been one of my more favorite custom roms. Going to be buying a dev edition once it comes back in stock, and I was just curious as to if anyone is going to try and port PA.

Use to be my favorite but you really don't need paranoid to get the dual panel view, xposed framework has a module called app settings which gives you the dual panel view, I would like to see a slimrom instead but it will have to be built from source same as paranoid

I'd rather have a PA where everything is running natively from the rom itself rather than using xposed framework and installing all these separate modules.

I'm in the same boat as you. PA has goodies you cant get with only xposed

thats right there it is, i got it, thanks.
im gonna edit the thread.
I tried to install the apk file attached in first post but that didnt install , i guess CWM is the only way to get this launcher.
I have a modded tre.. launcher with different name so wanted to install the original CM11 version but i guess the simple apk install wont work.

It's not working for me, but it's probably because I have Android 4.1.2...
It seems like cm11 Trebuchet stopped working on my AOSP 4.2.1 rom in mid June (around the 15th). Before, it was working very good.
Anyone knows why or how to make it work again?
edit: The problem is that it installs propperly but fails to open when i use the home button.
Here is CM11 trebuchet, as built on the 5th July 2014. I MODIFIED AndroidManifest.xml and now it works again on my 4.2.1 Jellybean rom.
Not working list:
Wallpapers (you ve gotta set it manually from Gallery)
Themes
Protected Apps (You can still hide apps with xposed GEL settings app, through xposed framework, if it's a matter)
Exactly like before. I played around in order to make these menus open but I failed. It seems like they interact with other processes/apps (like Settings.apk) which are exclusively found on CM11.
Does this change the notification and status bar to the same style as Trebuchet?
perfect launcher!
This launcher is better than google's launcher because we can remove that persistent search bar.
I installed it on my "spice mi 498".
Thanks for the launcher.

Try searching for cmapps in play store, although that app is broken but in description you can find direct web link.
Also my phone has android 4.4.4 and my phone is from android one series.
I think previous android version might be the problem.

try installing then moving to system as Launcher3.apk
Thanks for the APK dude, it works like a charm on my X-BO V5. Had to use the flashable ZIP version as the companion app to the default launcher, if not the launcher itself, is tainted.
[Warning: I'm relatively new to Android. I've used it for about a year, and I have a decent understanding on how it works. I've rooted and used Safestrap before and know the basics on almost everything, but not much more.]
I'm planning on purchasing a license for Sunshine, and unlocking my bootloader for my new Turbo. I was planning on using it to install a custom rom, like CyanogenMod, since that's the only rom I've used before, and possibly trying some new ones. However, I realized that I would lose all the Motorola features, like Moto Voice, Moto Actions, Moto Display, and so on. I love these features and use them all the time, so I don't want to give them up. Is there some kind of way to keep them with a different rom?
I was thinking that maybe there was a custom rom that has these features, or maybe there's some way to install them onto a regular custom rom.
Any ideas?

If you're planning on going to anything based on cyanogenmod, no. Someone would need to port these apps to the new rom, and no one has done that yet. However, some of the features can be replicated using other apps. For example, Moto Display is almost identical to the native android feature Ambient Display. You can use Ok Google voice commands for most Moto Voice applications.
An alternative would be to download a modified stock firmware (such as the one maintained by Computerfreek), or modify one yourself. This way, you can keep the Moto apps. Modifying your own firmware is very easy using TWRP (which you will install after unlocking your bootloader). Usually it's as simple as finding a flashable .zip file that contains the feature(s) you want to add and flashing it via TWRP.

You don't need to. Just download the ones that you want. For example:
1. Upgrade to the latest official firmware (SU4TL-44) and unlock your bootloader with Sunshine.
2. Want root access? Use TWRP to flash SuperSU. Download that flashable zip here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
3. Want to use the Xposed framework to easily modify your device in a ton of different ways? Use TWRP to flash it. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 (you need SDK22 arm)
4. Want to add audio optimizations? Flash PON-3. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530976. Flash it, same as the others.
The installation for all of these is the same. Once your bootloader is unlocked and TWRP is installed, boot into TWRP, select "install", select the .zip file that you want to install, and flash it. Done.

I've used Xposed before on my old Safestrap device. I thought about using Xposed on the stock rom, but I was hoping there was another option, since custom roms offer much more than Xposed modules do. Thanks for the links, I think I'll go with what you said. One question though, so there's no way to flash or install the Moto suite onto a custom rom (with or without TWRP)?
And one more thing, is it possible to use the IR sensors in the Turbo to wake up the Ambient display? (Like when you wave your hand over it and it shows the Moto Display.)

There is no way that I know of to get Moto et al working on a different rom. Like I said, the apps would have to be ported. I'm not very knowledgeable about what that entails, but I do know that the Moto apps need more than just their respective apks to function properly. They require extra libraries, drivers, etc. to work, most of which are probably kernel-related (you can't use the stock kernel on a non-Motorola rom). So someone porting those apps would have to either integrate these supplementary files into CM or AOSP or whatever, or rewrite the apps so that they rely on existing google code.

Dang it, that's unfortunate. Guess Xposed, and custom kernals and images will have to suffice. Thanks for the help!
Any recommendations for making the stock rom seem more custom?

Xposed, particularly gravitybox. I'm not really sure what you meant when you said that custom roms offer so much more than xposed does. I used custom roms for a long time on my Galaxy S4, and except for AOSP vs TouchWiz or installing a more recent version of android, I can't think of a single thing that a custom rom can do that an xposed module can't.

For me, custom roms don't exactly offer much more than modules do, but the experience of using a custom rom is much greater. Since everything is made by the same developers, it flows well with each other. Instead of having to rely on multiple modules that have to be updated, you can just install what is essentially a new OS, and get an entirely new flavour of Android.

But there are many functions and apps that do exactly the same thing.
Ambient Display = Moto Display
OK Google = Moto Voice
plus tons of apps to read notifications, texts, emails.
Etc.
I dumped my Motorola stuff months ago and have everything I need.
It's not that big a deal.
Open source is almost always better than proprietary stuff anyway.

Agreed. If you're willing to learn and set up some things, I bet you could get 100% moto functionality without a single moto app. Does anyone know of an app that will give me the chop-chop flashlight? Because when I eventually make the move to CM (assuming we ever get CM13), that will be the feature I miss most. And I'm being completely serious about that.

I find Moto Display to be much cleaner than Ambient Display.
Moto Voice was nice because of the custom launch phrase, and the system commands you could do.
Moto Actions comes in handy almost every day, especially the Dual Chop and Camera wrist twist.
If I could find I way to replace all or most of this then I would be content.

Download Commandr from the play store. I think that allows you to customize your OK Google phrase. It also allows you to add or customize OK Google commands.
But yeah, I use the actions a lot too, and I don't know of an app that will replace them.
The problem I have with Ambient Display is that it doesn't work when I toggle my lockscreen off. MotoDisplay still showed me notifications. With ambient display and lockscreen off, I have no way to visually know my notifications.
