Great work, v6 is awesome!

Quick question: how do I access trebuchet settings? Can't figure out how to lock portrait mode.

Also, bug report: market restore didn't work. Is it something that won't work coming from previous gapps and will only work from here on out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pedmond:
Press the drawer, menu is up and right (3 dots).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Sure, I can compile one this afternoon.

Actually, I haven't posted up the stock Apex kernel yet. I will this afternoon. If you need to revert before then, just reflash the ROM (and Gapps immediately after)

FB sync is the same as GB implementation (meaning only 96x96 pics - low Res). To get native 256x256 pics, FB needs to update their app and actually follow Google's API (not likely?) HaxSync should work.

I removed persistent battery percentage on home screen because it replaced owner info.

Yes, I'm aware of removing the search bar yielding the same amount of useable home screen space. This is still a Trebuchet limitation (perhaps an added feature in the future).

Thanks!

Settings are the 3 dots in app drawer. Check auto rotate and uncheck it to lock in portrait.

Backup hasn't been working the last 5 builds, so if you have no apps backed up with Google servers, nothing will restore (I believe it is somewhat picky too, depending on build number). Anyways, it should work from now on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dazzla:
I'm on build 6 with Franco.

I came from Modaco lr8 so I done a complete wipe of everything.

Exchange calendar sync works fine for me.

Widgetsoid has a grey background. It's a shame because it worked fine on the Modaco from which was 4.0.2

I'm interested to see how the mods get incorporated (e.g. settings menu).

Thanks for your work on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ludow:
Let me ask this once more please:

When I wipe data and cache how to restore apps, widgets and settings.

Is there a way? Please if somebody could answer, step by step. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sim-1:
Use Titanium Backup!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Ok, see?! Haha, someone with a pic of the grey background! And it's not just for Widgetsoid, its for a bunch of other apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ludow:
Been using it since day two. I backup all apps and system settings, and then restore. I basically know that. But is that safe? Some system settings might interfere with new settings.

Anybody willing to tell correct procedure with 2 or 3 lines. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mnemoch:
Sad about the need for a wipe, like the long press to kill. Sigh. Guess I'll bite the bullet. Thanks again Bigxie... All the best for 2012
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drnizeguy:
I came from build 5 and flashed build 6 + gapps right over, without any wipe and I noticed no problems. Only have to re-add all the widget because of the new launcher.

Really great rom, fast, stable, great battery life. Thanks Bigxie
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
3 questions:

1. Why don't you add the GApps to the ROM to flash in one package?

2. Why don't you remove all the duplicate apps as surely you end up with both the AOSP apps and their Google versions in the ROM?

3. How to remove the 'Mod version' in Settings>About phone? Prefer to have the phone look stock ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
i just switched to bigxie's ROM last night from 4.0.2 and so far everything is amazing (using stock kernel)

ONE thing i noticed - and im asking to see if anyone else has as well

When you press your power button to turn on your screen, do you notice the screen now slowly "fades" on instead of instantly just TURNING on?

I observed this same "problem" on my old Galaxy S2 as well

But i remember on 4.0.2 the screen would instantly turn on instead of "fading" in...has anyone else noticed this or is it just me?

and if anyone HAS noticed it, is there a way to fix it?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dazzla:
One thing about the long press is that is clashes with the long press in the browser. I sometimes use the long press on the back key to jump into my history. Maybe it's a matter of timing but it generally just force closes the browser instead of jumping to the history.

I don't know where else I'd use the long press of the back key though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Happening to me too, only ROM to do it. Not that annoying but would prefer it to be 'normal' if possible
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
It's convenient to keep the gapps as a separate download, so ROM updates will be smaller size. Also, remember when Google got angry at Cyanogenmod for including gapps? It's pretty much custom for AOSP ROMs now to have gapps as a separate download.

Don't worry about the "doubles", they are replaced by the gapp versions.

Not too easy to remove the Mod version I'm afraid, but you can rename it to something like Eddy's Phone or w/e, it's just to ro.modversion line in the build.prop. If you delete it, it will say Unknown.

Oy, I've never noticed that. You guys are observant, lol!

Anyways, I didn't modify anything that would affect it, so I can only explain it as this was a decision Google made. Doesn't necessarily make it optimal though, I will see if there's a way to make it instant again.

Also, someone requested the stock Launcher as a mod, so I've uploaded it in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
haha AWESOME, thanks bigxie!

yeah, it was a small problem that really bugged me on the Galaxy S2 as well.

It was definitely an instant screen-on when using 4.0.2 when pressing the power button - just seems like a weird decision on google's part if they decided to implement it

if there really is something you can do about it that would be AMAZING!

your ROM is extremely smooth and so far my battery life (using stock kernel) is superb! Coudlnt be happier
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tdesbien31:
Hey Bigxie, any chance you can make a flashable mod to get the "4g" icon back instead of the "H"?

Or is there a purpose it was switched back to "H"?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Yeah, noticed it says 'Unknown' - bit annoying but meh

Fair enough about the GApps, had heard about Google getting a bit funny about including them. Will just have to keep an eye on things ;)

And noticed the duplicates get removed when all flashed, did check some scripts as to how they're removed but not looked properly yet. All seems to work well at present :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abz54:
Firstly been using this rom for a week, can't fault anything.

Only issue I have is when I try to watch certain videos on YouTube e.g. 4od in the UK, I get on error saying it is not available in my country, is there anything I can change to make the app see that I'm in the UK, thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] manager77:
hey Bigxie,

great work !....just one question.....do you know how to remove ''system updates'' from settings/about phone..Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mnemoch:
Calendar wouldn't synch, probably what was fixed in gapps (although it worked in 5 so...). Anyways, only pain is trying to remember what my home screens looked like!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daheechang:
Everything is solid on this rom! only issue i am having is a bit of lag when i have my keyboard open, and press home button. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atreus:
Is it possible to integrate the "override lockscreen timeout" feature, that Open Kang has? I want to use an unlock pattern, but want the phone to lock after 30 minutes, even when I manually turned the display off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dj_ghosie:
You need to start fresh! Wipe data and cache.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elfarto:
Bigxie:

Do we need to "start fresh" (wipe data/cache and reinstall everything) with each update you release ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
No, during the earlier builds I was futzing around with the gapps (was initially using the ones from the Nexus S 4.0.3 build, since then have moved to Galaxy Nexus gapps from unreleased 4.0.3). When the gapps changed (namely, the sync providers), it would require a full wipe to work.

But I'm 90% certain that the gapps will not change from this point on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
You might want to change the product locale to UK in the build.prop!

Build 6 is simply brilliant. Approaching a perfect balance between a stock and modded ROM. Everything I need is here. Very pleased to see the faster rotation fix has been implemented.

Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mnemoch:
Anyone have some odd gapps authentication issues? I wiped etc. but still took a while to get Music working (would come up asking to us "jd" instead of my gmail account). Uninstalled and resinstalled from market but still had to reboot inbetween to get it to come up and ask for my gmail. Then the same thing with Goggles.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mjchung:
I got the same "jd" message as well, but had no problem authenticating my account with Music. Other than the "jd", everything was perfectly normal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daandman:
just wondering why this rom (and eagleblood) don't have ics camera shutter sound?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
bigxie, is it at all possible for you to include a light flow type feature in the rom kind of like Cyanogenmod? I tried lightflow but I just thought that it uses way too much battery for some reason. It would be awesome if that functionality was included in the rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ludow:
Might be so. But calender wont sync if you dont wipe. :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bxsteez:
Any chance of getting CRT animations back as well as persistent menu button?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
If you mess with window speeds, the CRT effect will turn off. You must leave it at 1x.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pedmond:
Why should a menu button be drawn when not needed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reMer(x):
Has anybody flashed this on a non Yakju phone yet? I have a canadian, Bell phone that has a Yakjuxx build. Do I need different bootloaders or anything like that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dasandroid:
Gmail Sync

Not sure why but gmail doesn't sync automatically. Also, Cache Cleaner NG stuck at 30% when I didn't have this problem on previous builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] forelli:
Thanks for v6! I have one issue: it looks like I have the stock launcher? Did I miss something? Wiped data+system, coming from Romanbb build 12.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YDardeer:
Man, a request that took less than one day to be implemented. You rock dude. Thanks.

Now that I know you do requests.... canz youz makez it az good az the iphonezzz???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Interesting question, I'm very curious about the answer. However, I believe you can "convert" your phone to a yakju by flashing Google's stock images with fastboot, no?

Did you do a clean install of v6 using my gapps package? I have 3 Gmail accounts synced, so I'm sure it works.

Not sure about Cache cleaner, does it support ICS? Is it necessary with this phone?

It shouldn't look different initially, but if you open app drawer, you should have a menu instead of market icon (to access the settings).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] forelli:
Thank you Bigxie, I did miss something :)

for use is necessary push it systemUI in system/app with good permission rw-r-r

good luck

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
I had Yakju 4.0.1 as it came from the store. I've pushed with fastboot the yakju 4.0.2 stock image from google and after few days I just pushed CWM and bigxie's rom. No other messing around .. everything is fine.

I hope this info will help :) ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalifax:
Thanks bigxie for a great ROM!

I flashed V6, and stock launcher2 MOD.

Now I'd like to go back to Trebuchet launcher. Can I simply take the apk from the rom, and copy it to system/app with Root Explorer?

I find the Trebuchet launcher to be just a tad smoother - you agree?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddmmh:
hi bigxie,

Any way we can change auto rotate to how it was before v6? I want to have my photos etc still auto rotate but not the home screen or launcher etc. When I'm half asleep trying to hit the snooze button I tend to miss it because of the auto rotate lol thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] illmatic416:
From the first post:

Things to be aware of

The launcher comes with auto rotation enabled (even though the checkmark is not checked in options. Check and uncheck to disable)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dasandroid:
Yes, I did a clean install each time with your gapps package. The gmail accounts synced when I turn off and on the sync button, but it didn't sync automatically.

For Cache cleaner, maybe it didn't support ICS at all, haha!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2dorr:
Thank you for this superb ROM. I made a donation yesterday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Just a thought regarding the screen 'fade in' when waking - could it be launcher and/or kernel related?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalifax:
I'm pretty sure it's launcher/kernel related. I'm running v6 with stock launcher2, stock kernel - and no wake up lag whatsoever.

Had it on my sgs2 and it drove me crazy :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dazzla:
Yeah, I get the same. Seems around a half a second lag before the keyboard slides out of view.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Really like Trebuchet, though. Liking the options available for it. Hopefully they can sort it out (unless it's the kernel, will give stock kernel a go now)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabhw:
Just thought I'd post a bug. It's not specific to this ROM, but rather IML74K (also tested on a Nexus S running AOSP IML74k). Not sure if that's something you can fix.

If you swipe a tab away in the browser, as it reaches the very edge of the screen (left or right, doesn't matter) you will see the tab thumbnail that you are swiping away flicker. It's because as it is heading towards the edge of the screen, it is fading out, then for 1 frame it goes to 100% opacity again, then continues to fade out.

You can even slow it down manually by following your finger to the very edge of the screen while dragging a browser tab out of view. You'll see it pop back to 100% opacity for a frame.

This bug is specific to the browser app, it doesn't affect other "swipe to close" actions like the multitasking swipe-away, or the notifications tray swipe-away.

At work so I can't post a video, but hopefully that's clear enough to replicate / fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
you can remove this by simply using the Settings.apk from build 5. this was manually cooked in for build 6 by dev.

as this particular ROM has started to slip away from stock, i've started using it as just a "base".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Don't suppose you have it to hand? Never used v5

EDIT: Found it - http://www.multiupload.com/0QJPZNZ46K
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elfarto:
I'm currently running version 5 of your rom and i plan to upgrade to 6, i see that you attached a new gapps package.

Should i do a full wipe when flashing it ?

(Sorry to ask again, but from your reply it's not very clear what should we do)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pedmond:
Yes, that's what he said - full wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Yes, or you can reinstall the ROM and gapps and it will return to the default configuration.

Trebuchet is a bit smoother, does not look any different from stock, and it has custom options, so that is why I chose to include it as the default launcher.

Thanks, much appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Been running build 6 24hrs now and battery life is exceptional and everything is working as expected. Seriously good ROM. Now, if you were to reorder the power menu as I mentioned on RootzWiki I'd be very happy ;)

Trebuchet is a great launcher, much better than stock IMO
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snuff96:
Also wondering if this is possible?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
hey bigxie,

i ran into a pretty weird problem this morning with build 6 (stock kernel)

I did a complete wipe of my phone before flashing your ROM btw

I put my phone on AC charger and went to bed with an alarm set (i've always had this alarm set for work every weekday)

This MORNING my alarm never went off, and i ended up waking up at 11am (it was set for 9am)

When i pushed the power button on my phone, all my emails/whatsapp messages came flooding in at the same time

I havent changed anything on my phone (i dont use any battery savers like juicedefender) except for setting "Interactive" as the default boot governor in SetCPU.

Would you know of any possible reasons this would have happened?

My alarm not going off is a pretty big deal so curios if you have any solutions

other than that your ROM is amazing, but its something i prooobably need to sort out (before i get fired from arriving at work so late)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Booker-T:
Anyone facing signal drops?

I have frequently faced this issus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Another example of why everyone should use a traditional alarm clock :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
hey mate, quick question. when you replaced that Settings.apk, do you still have this option? Long press back to kill foreground app (toggle in Developer options)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
heh, yeah, im really inclined to go get one now

i never had a problem with my alarm going off on my S2 and didnt have this problem using AndrRev2.1.2

i simply love this ROM so im hoping i can figure out whats wrong when my phone is idling on charge
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pego71:
Hi Bigxie, congratulation for your rom is very very performant and stable , you are very competent, Regards

With stock rom i could see album art of the same files.

There is a program for update album arts that works?

hey.

for some reason i cant sync the calender.. rest works just fine.

installed rom after using stock rom. also cleared the cache and data(wipe) before installation.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elemenopee:
Mine synced perfectly fine. Could be the kernel.

Btw bigxie. You should check out browser plus in the market. Looks exactly like the stock ICS browser but with extras such as back and forward buttons for the quick menu. Would be a great replacement of the stock browser for your rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] castemic:
Anyone else having lag zomming in and out photos from stock gallery?

I mean when double tapping for zoom.

This is a problem in all the rom I have tried.

Also I have lag when in 3G. While in 2G all goes perfectly smooth.

Could be the radio? I have KK6 on my SGN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
has anyone else ran into a problem with their alarm not going off?

I'm on build 6 with stock kernel

I just tested it now - it was 2:18 here and i set the alarm to 2:20 and turned off the screen.

waited and waited, then finally the alarm came on - but my clock read 2:22.........

the alarm clearly says it was set for 2:20

But this morning my alarm didnt even go off at ALL...

im not sure whats wrong? :confused: but i rely on my alarm clock so this seems pretty serious =/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
Alarm works fine here.

Check your time and date settings and ensure you are selecting the correct day when setting the alarm. Easy mistake to make.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Booker-T:
Sorry, I only searched the Development forum.

I can confirm that DSPManager 1.0 works but 2.0 from cm9 not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
I will look into building it as an add on mod.

Also, I'm not quite sure what the alarm issue is, as mine works :-/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bakedbread:
thanks for checking for me bigxie

im not really sure whats going on either - but i flashed your apex kernel and now the alarm is working ( i tested it out about a dozen times)

I have NO idea if its a combination with the stock kernel, but i definitely had some funky problems with it. But everything seems okay now (just using your Apex kernel instead)

thanks again for checking!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viskas:
ciao bigxie!

first of all my compliments for your rom, it works like charm.

do you know of any existing mod for the battery working with your rom?

I'd like to have a circle mod with percentage.

thank you!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pedmond:
I believe this one works.

Don't forget to backup first, just in case...

Hey bixie,

Thought I'd re-post this bug since it got lost in the sea of people asking other questions:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
The stock gallery does seem to drop a few frames when using the double tap function, however is smooth when using pinch to zoom. If you want a capable replacement I recommend QuickPic. You lose the full screen view on landscape though.

No lag related to network mode here.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
should the persistent search bar say Google? i could have sworn that it did before but it doesn't on the new build
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
I've been using this mod with numerous builds of this ROM. Works without problems.

I'd also like to recommend the black mms .apk (Messaging app) found in the Themes and Apps forum. Looks much better than stock and works fine even though it's stated to be a 4.0.2 app.

That's a quirk of Trebuchet.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Entree:
Thanks so much Bigxie for all the work you've done. I've been using your ROM since your first versions and I've got to say, I absolutely love it.

One thing I really enjoyed was the 4G icon from the old revision. Are you able to add that back as a downloadable mod for us? :)

Also, would you be willing to add that lockscreen battery info as a downloadable mod, as well? I fell in love with that!

Anyway... I've been waiting until I got enough posts to say thanks and, well, now I can!

Keep up the amazing work, I really appreciate what you're doing. When I first got the GN, with Bell, it was crashing every few hours on 4.0.1, doing any random thing, including just typing up a text message (graphics would skew and then it'd eventually shut off); add to that a battery that lasted a mere 12-14 hours of LIGHT usage... your ROM saved the phone for me. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viskas:
it works, thank you!!!

(talking about circle mod)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:

Are you disabling it in the Trebuchet settings or Android? Ensure you are opening the app draw and selecting the menu button (3 dots) and checking the option in there.
