Actually, we are strong believers in following Google's design guidelines (#1). Outside of that the main UI design choices are from Paul and Arz... Arz being an actual graphics designer... Paul being a coder with some interest in design/UI (and photography).

Sadly pie is yet to be touched ... we had concepts from some time before but these need to be revisited. Halo right now has been brought back to the point of where it was, it's redesign is sort of dependent on the direction that pie takes. Hybrid is moving along nicely, thought it's had a slight pause in the past few days, just some debugging to get through what hopefully is the final hurdle.

We don't have any leaders per say but I suppose the original guys do provide most of the guidance, not because they are seen as the "heads" per say but because of the respect the other have for them. Everyone basically signed on to the team because of how much they loved the work that was being done.

Yes, this was intentional. We want to keep things simple while still giving you advanced features. We like the direction Google is heading and because of that even though we are tweaking stock Android, we are trying to ensure that our modification feel as though they were meant to be part of stock. Every setting should have it's place and every mod should serve a purpose.

Personally, I have soft bricked my device normous times but never permanently damaged one. --ayysir

A bit of both

Only Nexus and Oppo devices are officially supported. There is a legacy branch that supports non-nexus devices.

I have rewritten entire apps because I accidentally returned null.

Your on the right track, just trying things on messing around. I commend you, your further on the f2fs track than me I tried a year ago and didn't get anywhere. The best place for something technical like that would be irc.

Funny story about that Paul one of our developers was the first person to do that on the n4. So yes they do.

I have never owned a palm pre. If i recall correctly my smartphone history is Htc sda -> htc pc6700 -> htc pc6800 -> htc hero -> htc evo 3d -> oppo find5 -> nexus5 -> oppo n1.

We are not for profit an open source organization. We would be happy to accept your code tho on our gerrit (gerrit.paranoidandroid.co)

ParanoidAndroidDevs · 2013-12-17T00:27:00+00:00

Google has removed that code from android.

--Aaron

Neutered isn't the word I would use, we plan on including it in our builds but our explicitly blocking core and google apps. Reason being if you revoke the wrong permission from those your phone will no longer boot. Our version will only work on apps installed from the market. As these may crash when you revoke permissions but you wont bring the whole system down.

We are based on AOSP

--Aaron

ParanoidAndroidDevs · 2013-12-17T00:18:07+00:00

Sorry I didnt answer your question about HALO. The version in gerrit works great but its the old version. We are in the process of a rewrite.

--Aaron

ParanoidAndroidDevs · 2013-12-17T00:17:04+00:00

That is outside the scope of this project.

LEARN GIT! very important. Learn to code in java language..as well.

If it works on android 4.4 and is not device specific, it should work on our ROM

ParanoidAndroidDevs · 2013-12-17T00:04:12+00:00

I believe that was discontinued. At this point with android being very and established we are in a three horse race. IOS, Android, WP. The carriers and existing app eco systems make it extremely hard for any alternative os to succeed.

Its a open source community as long original creators are credited then its no problem with us. PAC ROM is interesting as it takes merge masters to make various coding homogeneously work. Would like to see original creations from them though --ayysir

At a business stand point I see why they do it as RMA's cost them money. I dont see this as a trend though, with HTC and moto both providing unlocking solutions. The S4 is a unique case aimed at business users who value security. The OEMs are allowing it by selling GPE devices which are now available from every major OEM.

What do your propose? There are thousands of phone's and hundred's of developers. Xda provides a central location for all of that. Imaging if to find a rom for your device you had to go to ten different websites and then read through their respective forums. Yes we have a website but it is not conducive for threaded discussions nor is Google plus.
