Hello one and all, this is Paranoid Android for the P7510! If you've seen any of the other PA threads, they're a bit swankier than this. That'll come in time, no worries! This is still very much my first build - both personally and in the case of the ROM. Things might be a bit squiffy, but that's to be expected, I went into this completely dumb and learnt as I went
Still. It works. My tab hasn't exploded. Give it a try, tell me what works and what doesn't. I'm learning PA settings as much as any of you guys will be
What doesn't work:
Everything non-functional in CM10.
Can't find the button to enable MTP. That might be a problem with me and the button being moved?
Download here!
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/23306362/pa_p4wifi-2.00-27AUG2012-2325.zip
Installation instructions:
As normal, make sure to install GApps. Any plain old jb ones will do, which is awesome.
Once booted (a black screen after the boot animation seems usual) you'll need to enable the navigation bar. To get it you have to go to settings>system>navigation bar and then turn the option on in there. If anyone can tell me how to have this enabled by default, that'll be awesome.
I've been strongly considering selling my tab to get the n7, but with cm10 quickly catching up and now Paranoid being here I may have to rethink the move. Thanks for this! Downloading now..

I use it on my phone too. Between the Optimus 2X and the Tab 10.1, it does seem more sensible to be using PA on the big screen. Apps scale up better than they do down, if you see what I mean.
Ok so I flashed it and it works pretty nicely, but I think it doesn't scale very well in some areas or functions as well as cm10, such as with multitasking. Nonetheless, I'm excited to see where this ROM will go.

Forgive me for this but what the point of paranoid Android on a tablet? On a phone it's pretty useful since I can enable the tablet side of apps without going full tablet UI, but what about on a tablet? Most horribly scaled apps can already be rescaled using that arrow thing in the combined bar.
Also, I'll try to look into that MTP issue for ya (don't totally rely on me though). I feel like I've forgetten everything so I want to brush up.

Thanks good sir. The best way I can put it is manipulation of the system ui. In that I mean you can have the device running at stock dpi, but get the style of the Nexus 7. People may think I'm crazy for that, but i like the notification shade instead of a button, and the launcher in phone mode is just so much better, especially when done right. Of course it's subjective preference, but it's an option and I find that some aspects are far better than stock tablet ui.
In other news, yes, the multitasking is completely wrong, I'm fiddling around with settings now, but will have to ask more knowledgeable peeps if I can't solve it.
What did you port this ROM from? There's a hitload of problems that have to be worked out.. Plus Android seems to be trolling me, this is what logcat puts out when I enable / disable the navigation bar;
Code:
D/WifiService( 283): setWifiEnabled: true pid=1051, uid=1000
As to how the hell that can even happen, no idea.
Anyway I hear default settings are in SettingsProvider.apk but I didn't see the ones I was looking for. Multitasking isn't exactly broken, it's trying to use the phone UI. If you look at the power menu you'll see it's stupidly oversized because of the the phone Ui. In fact that can all probably be changed or fixed in Paranoid Settings.
On the sad side, launchers are extremely laggy. What gives? I hate lag
EDIT: Super smooth in the tablet mode. Something is up, making the Phablet UI super laggy.
Downloading... i know this is in development but i want to see what to expect seems promising
If I read right, one of the main features of this will be a Nexus 7/phone styled launcher in portrait mode?

Yep, that's right. You have to enable navigation buttons manually though.

Hi friends...all the project is great,I've not tested it though...
don't think I've lost my mind but for the MTP, I think you must:go to settings-->storage-->the menu button in the upper right corner of the screen-->USB PC connection -->connect as a media device(MTP) may this help...
I have the p7500 but am used to flashing all useful 10.1 ROMs
again I say:I've not lost my mind...

That would be correct, except there's no way to get into the menu. The three dots are missing and there's absolutely no way to press menu.

If one long press the current apps icon in statusbar you will get menu options for the app your in. I have not installed this on my tab only on my S3.
Please try if it works

Forgott one thing, in settings/system/hardware keys theres an option for action overflow wich brings the three dotted menu in apps back. Dont know if it apply to settings.apk but it wurth a try.

Yeah...the WiFi is odd. I grabbed some files from maple syrup to actually make WiFi work. I'll look into it later on.
Anyway, the source should be pretty clean. All of it was from Pershoots github for the tab and PA's for their stuff. The only niggle is that I have the Paranoidpreferences apk from the Gnexus in there. It's closed source and the N7 one doesn't give us phablet mode (because it is one already)
Edit: How odd, the MTP option just suddenly appeared after a reboot. Going to have to figure out why...

Can Apktool be used to bring it in the Nexus 7 apk?
Also, is anyone getting bad lag in the Phablet mode? The launcher lag is crazy' but as soon as I go to tablet mode, its smooth.
I have been following most of the AOSP threads fairly closely to see people's experiences and I have seen a disturbing amount of people report bricked phones. The odd thing about it is that these bricks didn't occur during the process of flashing a rom. They all happened (or most of them at least) while trying to power on the phone after it was turned off or in deep sleep. Here are links to posts by DIFFERENT AOSP rom users who all experienced similar issues (one of these posts contain links to 3 other posts):

I personally have run Slim's rom for a good 4-5 hours w/o problems. However, I went back to Sense shortly thereafter. I'm not trying to cause some kind of panic but on the same hand I don't want to see people sitting around with a $500 desk ornament. Bottom line is we are responsible for what we do with our phones and as a result we should do as much research as possible before flashing anything. Look before you leap!
Edit: Here is an additional means to record your brick experience:

Thanks goes out to the user who took the time to do this.
Yep just be careful guys the only warning I had to something strange happening was that my phone didn't charge at all when I turned it off (to try and charge it fast) it still charged while powered on however. But once it died that was it. Also no overclocking or system setting where really changed in my case.
Here's how I got a replacement went in and told them it wouldn't turn on and I myself at the time thought it was the battery so they said that could be it but again I wasnt to sure and neither where them. I ended up paying 50$ without tep

That's some messed up stuff.... You shouldn't have had to pay since it was a "hardware" issue. It should've been covered under the manufacturers warranty.

I know but whenever i've had a problem like that it's always been a free fix through sprint......
yeah I am in the same boat, I believe I was the first to report this. At first I thought it was just me and I passed it off as nothing. Since I've got my replacement I've watched people starting to trickle in with the same exact problem on AOSP I would definitely avoid flashing AOSP until the cause is narrowed down and solved if possible. As I said before it would be a damn shame not to run AOSP on this mighty device, but I have to stick with sense for now and hope that this problem is squashed soon.
Wow really? How upsetting. I'll have to keep an ear open. If there is any news regarding this issue please share

Has anyone on a NON AOSP rom run their battery down and had it die? Did it charge? I know on a few other phones it was actually the recovery that had this issue. I would try it myself but as I have my phone through work, replacing it is a bit more complicated.
I work for sprint and had a guy come in who bricked his phone. A simple relock of the bootloader and an ruu flash and bam phone was up and working fine. Is that not working for aosp bricks? I've personally haven't had any problems out of aosp roms

you are not able to relock the bootloader. we're talking total shut down, no power, no charge, no recovery, no bootloader, no fastboot adb devices, not a thing period point blank. i have the dead device still, and for the life of me cannot get it to do anything. I have been on my replacement for 2 weeks now running sense. hopefully the cause and solution are near.
Well... I was thinking of trying an AOSP ROM, but I guess I will hold of on that thought.

I'm with you on that
Until we get more kernel sources/reliable code out of HTC, playing with AOSP can be a dangerous game. And tbqh, it could well be OP's fault (not saying it is, but it can be). Flashing custom software of any kind is going to give your carrier/OEM an easy way out if anything goes wrong, which everyone really should keep in mind before making the jump.
What recovery are the "bricked" users running. TWRP or CWM?
Yeah I had my battery die completely on a sense Rom, but I was easily able to charge it and turn it back on 2 minutes later.
Sent from My Only "One"
Glad I'm doing a lot of reading before I make the jump back to HTC. Seems like the One is more of a pain in the ass to Develop (safely) for than the GS3. Looks like I'll be sticking to sense for a while.
For once in all of my android ownership, I'm not really pressed to switch to aosp so this isn't a huge deal for me. The phone is already blazing fast and I actually enjoy and use a lot of the features HTC has implemented into Sense 5. And HTC's browser is the smoothest I've ever used. I do hope someone figures out the problem though. Hate to see more people get bricked.

Hi!
My Note has for a quite long time now been slow, laggy and eating battery.
Didn't mind, had a car charger, suspected old battery and clogged storage.
About a week ago it came to a complete stop, taking 30 sec to open facebook.
And typing in Swiftkey an impossibillity, having keystrokes on a 5-10sec lag.
So finally i got a new battery, whiped the phone clean.
Flashed the phone with a fresh rom (Team Union JB XXLT4 V7)
Installed my apps manually, making shure no crap cache was brought.
Formatted internal storage and got a new 32Gb SanDisk Ultra card.
Fresh start, fast phone right? no.
Apps still unusably slow, typing on swiftkey impossible without lagging.
Battery from a full charge last about 6h with light usage.
Would like to stay on TW only for the MHL capability, but now i am open to anything.
Can't really afford a new phone, so if this can't get resolved ill switch to my old 3GS.
What do i do now?
What can i try?

YOu should try AOSP/AOKP Roms!!!
I think one of the apps you have is causing the problem.
When i had the same problem it turned out to be the podcasting app i had.

Or go to the terminal and run top, see whats eating the cpu.

Well, yeah couldn't find any original though, and don't want to wait weeks for a shipment, so got a copy brand "ENERGY" spacy logo and made here in Thailand. Only 2350mAh compared to the original 2500mAh.
Found that the new battery didn't really make any difference, about the same.
So worried i got new but crappy battery I'm now back on original, without any noticable change.
Considering getting a external charger and carrying the spare battery, that is not really a solution either.
Got get this phone working reliably soon, or i need to find a replacement.
Appreciate the tips, and ill try and make a study with "top" and get back to you guys.
Maybe i have a energy hog after all...
It's a pain in the butt, but it looks like the only way to resolve it is to do a clean wipe, then install each
app one by one, giving yourself a day or two of usage. Sucks, but it sure sounds like one app is
screwing up another one. Any chance you can (shudder) use a "memory cleaner/program closer"
after you use each app, to make sure it's closed as a test? Sounds like something sure is
interacting with something else.
USe Greenify and hibernate all apps!!!
Check your Google account settings. If you have sync Internet ticked disable it.

Really?
I thought my battery life was bad. 7h15m with 45 min screen time after charging my battery is at 67%
That is with wifi and bluetooth (with music playing) on and connected.
GPU overclocked and lowest step 200mhz(from 133 and max 400) and cpu up to 1550 Mhz.(okay, i did reduce the voltages, sue me)
and google location service on.
On original battery (dec 2011), that is about to die (screen starts glitching around 30%)
Somehow you are doing it wrong.
You would be surprised at what a speed deference you will get and battery life with aosp roms I have used tw and aosp and always go back to aosp based when tw starts to get laggy. But as most have said most likely a app causing your problem you should try install new Rom with all wipes inclueding preload I think thats what its called and make sure that media scan is not always running

How about reading the first post AndroidSlave?
What's this snarkyness that's infected xda?
Shure wasn't around back in the WM days.
This is and or was a very "General" issue with my phone, as i am still not entierely shure is a plain software issue.
However i've made the switch to a or the PA-rom out of desperation.
Still too early too tell, as it is first day after flash, but feels smoother.
What is driving me mad on PA is the lack of lockscreen-homebutton-torch.
Also a bit dissapointed in "Screen Mode" dynamic mode missing.
Missning SPen->screenshot->notetaking is bugging me aswell, but i'm shure ill find some replacement thing for that.
EDIT:
You, know what.
I apoligise if i posted this in the wrong place.

The comparison is not exactly valid. You're comparing a smaller 4.6" screen with HD resolution only (Z3C) with a 5.0" Full-HD (X Perf.).
Think it's more realistic to compare it to the Z2, Z3, Z3+ and Z5...

I really like 89 hr battery life z2 i really hope they start return that kind of battery life i want 100+ hr not 61 hr. They should start thinking of how hd games eat battery life

Thanks for the review...
I have a few things.. The phone going to 3g is normal, in Denmark when making a call to a number from another provider it goes to 3g but when making call to one using same provider it uses 4g for HDVOICE.
LTE is the same as 4G even though it is not 4g but that is another story. It is the same...so no big deal there.
I will await my phone and I look forward to it, my old z3 is in bad shape ?
Thanks again and have a great weekend ?

HellRoot,
Sure thing man!
Well here a phone w/o VoLTE should stay in 4G at least, but I guess if the one is not FROM (or locked) a carrier, it's not gonna get 4G. I just found out what I'm getting during a call is that it's switching back & forth between 3G and H+, or 3.5G. Some real BS eh? lol
Yeah NOT during a call my int'l XP shows LTE, which I know now is the same as 4G LTE. But it's DURING a call that is what I'm concerned with. Apparently there's more to it than just the VoLTE-certification, b/c my phone is no different than the T-Mo Z1s (which again does NOT have VoLTE either) EXCEPT that it's unlocked and int'l.
Yeah I had the Z3 too and I LOVED it!! Got the S7 but it just wasn't the same. lol Tried the HTC 10 too but still.........to me, Sony is still the best. The Z3 had better battery life than the XP does though, so make sure to get that 360 Hibernation Master app (full paid version!) too. See my review for all the details. Also a QC 2.0 or esp 3.0 charger will help deal with that too.
YW. You too buddy!!
xperia "X" vs. "X Performance" Ctrl c - ctrl v test by gsmarena
Lte is 4g, it is exactly the same as lte4g or whatever you want to call it. The shown symbol or name is down to region of firmware only.

This phone is finally a fine replacement for my z3c. The z5c has been a huge disappointment, horrible battery life, average camera, constant resets or firmware reinstalls.
First off, it's ridiculous that the contacts app force closes. Not sure how that doesn't get caught in beta. Aside from that the phone stays cool, is fast, takes amazing photos, and is eminently stable.

Hey Bialynia,
Yeah I really love it too! I wish it had a bigger battery like my Z3 did, but it's still pretty good, esp when using the 360 Hibernation Master app with it. Works like Stamina Mode but better.
Yeah I think it's ridiculous too. I started a thread on here a few days ago about it. MGS seems to have found a fix, but it didn't work for me, though it might for you? Take a look at the thread here. Let me know if it works for you or not (if you try it)!
I agree on all points....... the camera is definitely better than the HTC 10's and even my now former Galaxy S7's! More detailed than the 10, and more color accurate (and not oversaturated) than the S7's. It runs and loads up apps much quicker than the S7 did, and that had an extra GB of RAM on it! The speakers sound much better than the S7's super awful lone speaker, it doesn't skip while playing music through MicroUSB port with headphones like the S7 constantly did, looks really premium too, etc. I have absolutely no regrets about buying it this phone.
I'm hoping to have an unlocked US version of the X performance possibly late this week and will post thoughts.
lindseybp,
Nice. Despite Sony Mobile not advertising it for the US XP, many people are claiming that the US XP WILL in fact be IP65/68 compliant. It'd be nice if someone (not saying you lol) could test that. Others on here say sometime soon (if not already) someone will develop a flash for the US XP that will actually activate the fingerprint sensor. You may want to ask around on here about that if you want to use it. They say it won't require root or even unlocking of the bootloader, which is extra nice. lol

Would be nice to have a flash like that. I would definitely give it a go. As for testing the IP65/68......I would have to think about it....

Yeah it would. lol So far I've been told you need something called Flashtool (bookmark that link and download now) and then the FTF file (int'l individual firmware file which will just activate the fingerprint sensor, vs the full int'l firmware file which will change everything, but you may not want that.) It's nice b/c unlocking the bootloader on an Xperia phone has been known to permanently mess up the camera, but this doesn't require that or again rooting either. I'd also check through these threads with the word "firmware" being the search term used for the XP. Or just start your own requesting that FTF file.
Haha again, I WASN'T implying you should test that, but someone. I'm sure someone on YouTube will soon enough too, so I'd keep checking there.

I started having other issues with XP this weekend. It randomly restarted like twice on its own, and now after doing another factory reset, I'm noticing that during calls where I have Speakerphone off the screen is STILL not turning off. So returning it for a new one, and am hoping I'll have the same luck MGS did with everything including the Contacts app. lol
Anyone had apps crash / close not responding or phone reboots ?
Installed stability patch that was released but still getting reboots of os and app crashes.

Nope no problems here, everything runs clean and smooth. Maybe you should hard reset?
No issues here

Lorditler. I'm no troll buddy. Sadly my Nokia 8 is going back. Crashes, reboots, smart lock doesn't work period.
I'm pretty gutted about it not being 100% from the get go.

I've had the odd app crash and reboot, I've got one more week to decide if I'm keeping it. Only thing is, I'm not sure there's anything else around that's going to be pure android with these specs for the same price. Pixel 2 is interesting, but likely to be £700+...

You sound like your exactly where I'm at smudger40. My phone arrived last wed so under DSR I've got a fortnight. After a fortnight I'm stuck with it for the next 2 years.
I'm after a near stock / totally stock android phone which leaves the pixel.
But like you I'm watching what price it is released at and with the fruity firm releasing a £1150 handset, what's not to say the pixel 2 hasn't suddenly gone up even more.
Like yourself I suspect it's going to be around £750 ish.
Which makes the Nokia a real bargain. My Nokia is going back so I'm covered under DSR and im just going to sit on the fence and see what pixel 2 looks like come oct.
And at that point i maybe re-order the nokia and hope I get a better one than the one I'm returning.
As for the X phone... I think this will open the flood gates to 3 year phone contracts to make the phone contract affordable or people are going to have to put 300-400 towards the handset cost.

I've had random reboots. Also issues with phone app and alarm. Phone app is being silent and unresponsive, alarm is just silent.
No issues here at all. Maybe try a factory reset and run with bare minimum a day or 2.
If it still happens it could very well be issues specific to your phone and you should be able to return it and get it either replaced or repaired.
My phone version is... Read below ?

Running a flagship phone with bare minimum? That makes no sense.
I have random reboots, phone app crashes on incoming calls, apps lag heavily, phone gets stuck in landscape mode.
Even the original ZTE Blade had better software than this. This is my first Nokia phone in 17 years and I will probably never get another one.

The very least you can do is to factory reset and some basic trial and error... If the service workshop factory reset it and can't find issues they basically end up claiming you caused the problems. Gathering some proof makes them look like the idiot instead.
It could very well be hardware related since mine works perfectly. **** happens. No brand has 100% flawless phones.
Avoid Nokia if you must... But then avoid Samsung due to Note 7 aka Firestarter, Sony due to random reboots on my Z5 premium (that they fixed later), Apple due to critically flawed updates... The list can go rather large if you really put some time on finding reasons to avoid something.

Already am avoiding all brands you mentioned.
I really like the Nokia 8. Just what I really wanted but, mines not been right from the first day. However, having seen pics that were leaked last night of the pixel 2, I think that looks a proper minger. Then there's leaks of the Nokia 9 appearing every where.
Sitting this one out till Nov when either I go Nokia 8/9 or minger phone (pixel 2 XL) depending on how stupidly it is priced

I have exactly the same issues, with the phone app crashing and alarm is silent sometimes, have you found a solution to your problem?
As others have not had this issue I've returned my handset to carrier. Awaiting a replacement bud
