[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mykegger:
Can you delete files from your "sdcard"? I'm willing to bet you can't, and if any file does delete back out of the folder and go back in to it to see if the file has reappeared.

I had this issue a while ago. The system wouldn't write to the sdcard, always thought it was full. Turned out it was just stuck in read only. No amount of system wipes would fix it. I had to do a quick fastboot oem lock, fastboot oem unlock to fix it. Lucky I could still copy all my files to my computer, and push files to the sdcard while in recovery via adb. Maybe you have the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MoeKz:
Oh damn, just tried deleting files and it didn't work. I'll try your method as soon as I get home later today
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vinistois:
I do agree with his point. I noticed it right away flashing to CM9. It seems like the area you need to touch to register an actual touch is much larger. I keep thinking I "missed" hitting the icon, which was not a problem on the stock rom.

If anyone can tell us where this setting is, maybe we can tweak it ourselves to our own liking?

---------- Post added at 03:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------

Just want to share that I flashed the CMPlus-Tuna kernel, last night's release (Apr 12) as well as the latest nightly of CM9 (Apr 11). This is the best my phone has ever felt!

No bugs yet, tested everything thoroughly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] G0belet:
I was wondering, will we end up seeing torch support in this ROM? I was surprised to see it didn't support it. TeslaLED works but I'd love to have something more integrated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
It just hasn't been merged yet for the GN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Im so happy with that Rom, because i can change the colour settings and I dont have this awful yellow tint anymore !!! Finally my Display looks nice...

What settings you use?

Here is mine:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scott8281:
Yea I used the Buzzer alarm (it was the only one that would wake me up) & its gone now.

From what I can tell they are just using the ringtones that came with stock 4.0.4 with the exception of the Cm labeled ringtones. So I extracted the ones I like like pixie dust etc. But I haven't bothered to try to install em. Ive went back to the 4/7 nightly. It has everything I want and seems to be just as stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duk3r:
I've been using the nightly from April 4 and I can't say I am impressed with the battery life I get.

Brightness is manually set to the lowest setting, auto timeout in 30 secs.

Screen time in the following pictures is nearly 2 hours. How are you all compared to these?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Geraldius:
does anybody know if there will be an option so that we can define time points when a specific profile will be set automatically?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D3VI0US:
The bootanimation is really laggy for me even wen i replace it with the original galaxy nexus bootanimation ... is that normal ? .. because on the stock rom it wasn't like that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leobg:
Yes, this is normal. It is actually a feature which was merged in few weeks ago (too lazy to find the link right now). Thanks to it phone boots nearly twice as fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
would you rather look at a smooth animation or have your device boot quicker? I honestly dont get the fuss about it must be an ocd thing ...

the rom sacrifices boootanimation smoothness for a faster boot time

---------- Post added at 10:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

i say this to everyone ... flash GLaDOS kernel! It the best one out there. You'll see a huge difference
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D3VI0US:
easy buddy i just didn't know what is happening my galaxy nexus is just week old so i was wondering bcoz i had galaxy s2 b4 and the bootanimation was smooth so i was asking what is wrong bcoz i didn't follow the thread from the very first sec .. thanks for the heads up anyway

i saw in the changelog page that next build will have UMS is that possible ? bcoz from what i've read the GNexus got no support for such feature am i wrong ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
With those settings I'm getting between 4-4:30 screen on time. I have GPS on all the time, auto rotation, full sync. If I get 4 hours its cause I am on mobile network. 4:30 would be Wi-Fi all the time. I had pictures a few pages back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brian_o'fish:
You seem to be right. I run with these upcoming changes booted, and the relevant setting is greyed out.

Note that the changelog is not exclusively for the galaxy nexus, it covers development in all general areas of CM9, and additionally the gnex specific device parts. So you'll regularly see there changes to general areas that will nevertheless be active only on some other devices.

I would generally advise to use the changelogs as a personal guide to see what's new after you install a new nightly, and only blab about it here once you've seen it work on your device :)

BTW, next IMHO siginficant feature, not yet merged, but coming up in a few days - I have it on my gnex already and it's great: notification LED color picker + override per app. See http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,14553 for the details.

Update 16th April: the notification LED settings have just been merged, should appear in the next nightlies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
i'm easy man ... just a lot of people complained about it ... i didnt mean anything by it ... love you :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZiCoN:
Damn... and I just bought Lightflow :) But hey... good on the dev :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
same ... still enjoying lightflow though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Did you guys see this commit "Add option for switching between UMS and MTP/PTP mode" ? http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,14664

I wonder if it's just for phones with a sd card. I'm sick of the stupid android file transfer app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveact:
well,i've never had a problem with the MTP mode
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
because you use windows. mac doesn't have native mtp and the app from google is pure garbage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] io53:
The Mac app sucks indeed, and I've had major problems to make MTP work good under Linux. So I've started using adb to move files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bemymonkey:
Surprise, surprise, MTP also sucks under Windows. It's just way too unreliable and buggy, with some files not transferring properly (without error messages!)... I've started resorting to using HashDroid to checksum files after transfer because MTP is so flaky :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slg60:
The Rom is quiet nice, using it from first Nightly on, but one thing is really annoying. I use the Auto Brightness settings from CM and sometimes the lockscreen is not smooth. I think it happens when the phone was in Bright surrounding and then It goes to darker room, switch on the phone and then ...laggy. Somebody else havee this problem? Is there a Way to fix that. With Leankernel the phone is mega smooth, but it's annoying when the lockscreen is not. This happens with slider Lockscreen and Pin Lockscreen, so doesn't matter which one I think, the all are involved.:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
I use SlimICS 3.2 with latest Leankernel (and other kernels) and face the same issue. But if you want to report a bug here, it would be better if you stick with the stock CM9 kernel. (:

EDIT: Fixed typo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rimher:
Have you tried using gMTP in Linux?? Used it and worked flawlessly, also with an iPod!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ibanez33:
I hear that!! I've been transferring over ftp instead, transfer rates are adequate plus it means you can continue to browse and move other files even while ones transferring.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgear356:
sorry, may i know if customizable nav bar is made available in the latest nightlies?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dhuberto:
CM9 ROM Wonderful! brought freedom to my Maguro! UEHuehuehe .....

But I want to change the Icons!? as I do!?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mbroeders:
Not yet...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drziddo:
MTP issue solved in linux 12.04. Just plug the Nexus and thats all!

So, sudo apt-get update -d !!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deedend:

I'm using arch Linux and libmtp. Haven't tried mounting my phone for a few months tho so the problems I was having might have been resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jemi9:
Is there a lot of difference between CM9 and stock ROM in terms of speed? And how is stability?

Could you please tell me the benefits? I used in the past CM for htc magic and Galaxy S, where perfomance was increased a lot, but I want to know how is here (don't tried it because I am still unrooted and locked bootloader)

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unity04:
I just got a Nexus and I've been reading through ROM pages and I've heard that the CM9 ROM is the best ROM available. I have a few questions I'm hoping some members can help me with:

1. What is 'Nightly'? I see it in the title, but I don't know what it means exactly

2. I have the Android Revolution ROM already flashed but I want to try this one. To get the CM9 ROM do I just get it from here: http://get.cm/?device=maguro ?

3. What is the Google addon that is listed in the first post of this thread by the OP?

4. What exactly is a kernal? Does this ROM come with a kernal? If so, is it the latest one?

5. I keep reading about AOKP and users saying it's the best. What is AOKP, and does this ROM have it?

Sorry if some of these seem newbish, I'm still trying to figure Android out.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvc:
1. Nightly is like a bèta, and can still have bugs

2. Yes

3. Its the Google apps like Gmail etc

4. It comes with a decent kernel. Kernel is the basis of the phone, a rom is the overlay. Kernel controls performance, battery life etc. Just try some out here on XDA. I'm running Franco.

5. AOKP is a rom (just like CM9) and its known for their heavy customization options. CM9 is definitely faster, but has less customization options.

Happy flashing!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gravis86:
1. Nightly means there is a new updated build every night. (Or close to it)

2. Yes. Go to the link, download the latest one. Make sure you do a wipe before you flash.

3. Google add on (gapps) is the google framework package that allows you to add a google account to your device, and comes with some Google apps such as the Play Store, Maps, Gmail, etc. It is required for the full experience. It is pre installed on the stock ROM and most other ROMs, but is separate for CyanogenMod because of legal issues.

4. The kernel is what allows the OS to communicate with the device. Every ROM comes with a kernel. So yes, this ROM comes with the CyanogenMod kernel. Feel free to try out other kernels as well, though!

5. AOKP (Android Open Kang Project) is another ROM that, like CyanogenMod, is based off the pure google AOSP (Android Open Source Project) code and has tweaks and features added. Many of the features of the AOKP ROM are actually from CyanogenMod. However AOKP will have more features than CyanogenMod since it incorporates features that a buggy, that the CyanogenMod don't think are finished yet and therefore aren't included in CyanogenMod yet. This is called 'cherry picking' and there a lot of ROMs that do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unity04:
Thanks for the responses. :)

If I install a kernal that doesn't come with the ROM, will it effect how well the ROM functions? Also, is there a certain order you need to flash? Like, flash the ROM before the kernal, or the kernal before the ROM? Lastly, are all ROMs compatible with all kernals?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freemini:
1. In CM9, different kernel would make the color control options unusable. Other than that no.

2. ROM first since it includes a kernel. You can flash a kernel after your ROM of choice.

3. Should be, as long as the Android version is listed as compatible in the kernel thread. So a 4.0.2 ROM wouldn't work with a 4.0.3/4 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slg60:
Kernel has no influence. I have had this issue With Apex Rom, which is using the Auto Brightness implementation from CM9 with different kernels. Also With Stock Kernel I'm facing theese problem. So Cyanogen Team, please fix, this would make this rom more Awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gravis86:
FWIW, this issue has been present on every Android device I have owned: Galaxy S (Vibrant), G2, Amaze, and now my Nexus. This is spanning Android 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and now 4.0. I believe it may just be a problem with Android itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unity04:
How is this ROM in comparison to the Android Revolution ROM? Is it faster?

Also, what's the most recommended kernal for maximum performance?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] triStateMindgate:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
CM9 has been great fast and absolutely stable it's my number one favorite ... i pair it with Ezekeel's GLaDOS kernel which has been fantastic
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scott8281:
+1 on that man. Android File transfer is a POS. And I've also noticed that the SD card can't be mounted from clockwork recovery either. I've never had so many problems transferring files. I had a Nexus S before my galaxy nexus and Koushs 4.0 rom had the same MTP but cwm recovery could mount the SD on the nexus s no problem. I love my galaxy nexus but it looks as if Google devised the worst possible solution to transfer files to and from the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
I just upload to Google docs and then download from there to the device. Or I use Wi-Fi transfer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lazaro17:
Check out airdroid in the play store. It let's you move files over wifi from inside your computers web browser...plus added benefit of sending/receiving texts and a few other goodies. Very nice interface too. I use it for most of my SD file transfers.

If you must fix it locally right away, I think it should be sufficient to modify device/samsung/tuna/BoardConfig.mk to include:

i'm using Debian Testing which is a rolling release and MPT got integrated into Nautilus sometime last month so now it works like it does on windows explorer which is great
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaboose01:
Has anyone had any issues with color gamma tuner acting wacky when you adjust the brightness? My settings are 53,43,53 in order from top down, and the color multipliers are rom default. The issue I'm having is when I adjust the brightness down to below 50% the whole screen develops a green tinge. Adjusting the green gamma slider up causes the condition to revert to correct color, but when you turn down brightness more it returns. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue and what can be done to correct it.

The official CM9 kernel and recommended for this ROM. And the only one officially supported by CM team BTW.

Are you sure that was CM9? I cannot remember the volume rocker to behave in that way, ever.

This is stable as hell, just not finished yet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bram77:
I can confirm it's very stable. Coming from Aphex 1.02 I'm very pleased. The rom is fast and stable, even with the default kernel there is not much to complain about. The only things I'm really missing are search and menu buttons in the navigation bar and the torch/flashlight option in the toggle bar. Every other option I need is included by default.

Is there a way to uninstall the music application that comes on CM9, or are you only able to disable it in the application menu?

Are you talking about the Android Music app, or the Google Music app? There's a difference.

The CyanogenMod Android Music app isn't ready for primetime yet. Follow Andrew Neal on G+ for updates. The name of the app is Apollo.

When I try to delete music.apk it says that the file can't be deleted (using ES File Explorer)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FaithCry:
You need to mount the system as r/w with root explorer or remove it using adb shell.

adb shell

rm /system/app/music.apk

exit

And that should do the trick!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unity04:
I'm in the terminal that comes with CM9 and it says:

rm failed for system/app/Music.apk, Read-only file system

How do I change it to write? I tried doing chmod but it doesn't let me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
As mentioned above it can be done via adb as well, but I'm guessing you didn't give ES r/w permissions: ES Settings > Root Settings ensure Root Explorer and Mount File System are checked.
