Yesterday like a pleb I installed the 1.99 version of Paranoid Android thinking it was the latest version because it was higher up on the list. Now I have just downloaded Paranoid Android 2.13 the correct version.
Just wondering do I install it like I would a new ROM? Or is there a different way to update ROMS?

flash the Rom just like a normal ROM. I'll advise you to do a clean install.
Quick ref:
- Backup your important data
- boot to CWM recovery
- wipe data /factory reset
- wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
- format /system (under mount and storage)
- flash ROM
- Flash Gapps
- fix permissions (under Advanced)
- reboot phone
Done

Some ROMs provide an OTA update. If your ROM does, install the new ROM via the OTA update. Nice and easy. If it doesn't then you have to update it the way you install a new ROM. Although a full wipe is not essential in this case, its always preferable

Hi
I flashed the CM10 nightly on my i9100g a couple of days ago. It's absolutely beautiful and awesome. But unfortunately I have a couple of problems with it.I was wondering if I should wait for the stable version to come or are there any patch works for it.
My issues are:
1. 2G network won't work. And I need it badly. Please tell Mr if there is anything I could do about it.
2. WiFi direct: there simply is no option for it. Nothing to toggle on or off. It's not deal breaker though but I would like to know if it's fixable.
Thank you in advance

1.
Goto Settings - wireless & Networks, Mobile Networks - turn off mobile data , wait for mobile data to turn off, then enable 2G network only
Note:I'm using CM10 based Rom for GT I9100 but i believe this solution should work for you

thank you very kindly sir. unfortunately it did not work
did you wipe cache and dalvik cache before installing CM10 nightly?
maybe try wipe data/factory reset in CWM
mystery solved. i had to go to my carrier and set up the apn manually.
thanx every one
Hi all!
Need some help here. Finally got the title right. Now here's my issue:
1. Different ROMs and kernels
2. Flash back stock ROM and kernels
3. Wipe everything using CWM and through the phone setting
4. Wipe cache and dalvik but not use clear data on CWM
The problem happens whenever I am flashing over stock (or anything close to stock) ICS. JB and GB roms have no problem but only ICS. So, what is wrong guys?
I am running out of ideas so please help. (p/s I did try to search here and Google but can't find an answer )
Why on earth did you create this new thread when a solution to your problem is already posted to their previous thread (which you also opened).
As a senior member, i expect you to follow the forum rules.

Looking at my phone today I started thinking That as I always stick Go Launcher on it ( I like my shortcuts in folders) and a few other GO apps. Am I really getting any benefits from a custom ROM.
Maybe a standard ROM with the GO stuff added would be just as good. Then I know they will always work.
Problem is I can't stand all the 'Samsung' crap that comes with them. Kies and their 'shops'
Maybe a cut down 'standard' ROM will work.

You can always remove those apps you don't need on an UNmodified firmware. You only need root access

I have searched everywhere and didn't find anything related to my phone.
So I have a Galaxy SII (GT-I9100) running CyanogenMod 10 and I want to install BLN. I found Siyah Kernel on the net and it supports BLN.
Now my questions are:
1: Will flashing Siyah Kernel wipe my files? I can't afford that right now.
1b: What will happen with my CM10 rom? I read about dual boot, but I am really stuck, I wish to have one ROM and not two.
2: Can I use the latest Siyah Kernel for this? At gokhanmoral website.
3: What will change? I am running CM10 (see picture attached).
4: Is battery life really improving?
5: Is there any change I brick my phone losing all data?
Thanks in advance,
Nerminzz.

Hello everyone
I'm thinking to install a custom ROM to my P7500 3g but still not sure which one. I specially want to play my 720p brrip movies on my tablet. Any good roms to recommend? btw i used overcome rom like last year,the first release i think. it was good but couldnt follow the hack scene since.
If you have no special needs not covered by stock rom i would advice to stay on stock rom.
GV
Well the stock rom starts on lagging on me lately and uses too much of the ram.Plus since I havent heard of jelly bean coming to the tab 10.1, i wanted to try the custom roms.do you recommend the cm 10.1 or the overcome rom?
I have no personal experience with other Roms on my P7500 but i have tried cm10 on my other Android devices. From what i read on the xda forum i am not at all sure that another rom (ICS or JB) will improve my Tab rsponsiveness. My Tab runs currently extra smoothly with stock 3,2 HC rom, rooted and overclocked with setcpu app using Pershoot's kernel (thanks)
GV
Be very careful .. I bricked my first tab by simply putting an american rom on it by accident. When I went to factory reset from the recovery it triggered DSOD and locked the device.. A very rapid learning curve indeed!!
aaanyway....
Been on CM10.1 for a week now on my GT-P7500.. fast , buttery smooth and a pain free install....make a nandroid backup from recovery first !! do a wipe and factory reset afterwards. I love the look and feel of it now... mmmm shiny
Thanks for the reply caramel.Ok i'll install the CM 10.1 too I'm using 4.0.4 now.In Galaxy s2 the 4.0.4 has a wipe data bug, bricks the device.Does the tab has that too?

IF you've flashed a custom recovery, there's no worry with the emmc bug.
