I figured i'd make a thread to keep yall up to date on paranoid android.

RIght now I'm trying to get paranoid settings to work if anyone wants to keep a stab at it, here is the portion of the logcat from when I open the settings.

Have you compared the manifest within the PA settings.apk to the error message?
Click to expand...

not yet, wasn't sure where to start so i'll start there lol, oh and check your inbox


Ok so stark informed me that data works, I confirmed calling earlier, Bluetooth headset works but not fm? Should be an easy fix tbh, Wi-Fi works but drops, again shouldn't be too hard. I'll update the status when I can

------------------------------------------------------------
Now shows Virgin mobile instead of roaming indicator off
indicator lights function normally
both sd cards mount like they should
the only thing that crashes now is paranoid settings
keyboard is really small (just need to adjust the pad.prop)
open wifi signal connects and works fine
------------------------------------------------------------
Paranoid settings work
Keyboardproperly resized

Going to upload a public test build later today

This isn't really much of a problem or anything, but I'm just curious to know why the status bar icons (Clock, battery and data icon, etc.) are small. And also why is the circle icon, which is normally in the center of the drop bar, a bit farther right than normal? It just seems that the overall default font of the rom is just a tad small. It seems that changing the font size only controls the look and feel of apps. Like I said, it's not that big of a problem, maybe I'm just being picky..:P PA seems to be pretty fast! Thanks for all your hard work, and I hope you feel better soon!

They are small because the default density of the Rom is set to a different resolution. The circle is just an annoying little thing I need to adjust lol

Well, is there anyway to change the density? xD

Under paranoid settings, go to hybrid settings, then apps, change Android system to 160 dpi you can also change the status bar size but doing so freezes the phone and you will have to pull the battery, it'll work fine after that though

Thanks man, I'll be sure to do that next time I run PA. Great work, as always!

After changing the system resolution density to 160, I noticed that the persistent misplacement of the circle icon sort of...worked itself out. Everything turned back to normal ICS-looking fashion. Thanks again!

It gets stretched out of place when the resolution gets changed.

Small update, been to the hospital twice in the last few days, sort of starting to feel better though
