Always wipe dalvik cache if your installing a new rom. If your doing a upgrade then you don't necessarily need to. You can have issues if you wipe everything except dalvik cache and then install a new rom. It only takes 2 more seconds to wipe dalvik cache and will make sure you have a clean new rom.

Oo waooww ! Cheers ! It works now.

I completely forgot searching in android lock screen settings! I was actually on slide but I had to switch to "none" in the lock screen settings and then I could set my wallpaper without crash. Now I set again on slide and the bug is gone...

Thanks for the hint, even if it was not what you had in mind, you kind of fix my problem!

Thanks for your help and your willing to help! =D

Weird, i thought everyone recommends to wipe dalvik and cyanogen himself said to do it when installing a new rom. I have never seen someone have a bad rom flash because they wiped dalvik cache before hand. I am not saying your wrong I just don't think your doing it the ideal way.

Am I the only one that wipes dalvik cache before installing a new rom now? Did I miss something somewhere that was posted about this not being required anymore? I see that the install directions for this rom don't show to do it now either.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chlehqls:
Nope you're definitely not the only one. I don't see why I shouldn't wipe cache/dalvik beforehand. If someone can prove to me that there is a downside to this, then I may be convinced, otherwise I never had a problem doing it with all my phones.

I always wipe cache and dalvik before flashing anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Ditto, fully out with the old and in with the new. Never had issues...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] teiglin:
Wiping the dalvik cache will never break anything; it just makes the first boot take a bit longer. It's good advice to wipe it when flashing a new ROM, though if you're just updating from, say, one cm9 nightly to the next, it is probably not necessary. The result of not wiping it if you change bases entirely is going to be apps force closing.

About the cache itself, it is a collection of files generated for each of your apps (this generation is why it takes longer to boot the first time after wiping dalvik). It is stored under /data, so if you do a factory reset in recovery then it will get deleted anyway. Some cwm flashable zips will wipe dalvik anyway, though I haven't had my nexus long enough to know if that behavior is really ubiquitous here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
Thanks, I was beginning to think I missed something important about not doing it anymore.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raubkatze:
And I'm not saying yours wrong. If you want to have a really cleanest install you must wipe dalvik cache. But now when we have practically similar roms I don't see a great reasons to make it. No, I am wrong, there is one reason - an inexpert user.

By the way I wrote about update aokp and not about flashing aokp over any other rom.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
Well, I was updating from m4 to b28 where it's stated that no wipe should be required by Team Kang themselves, and I do still trust that. Yet I wiped cache/dalvik, as said, to be on the safe side without actually doing a data wipe. I am very well aware of those steps to flash a ROM, hence I did re-flash it, doing a full cache/data wipe without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
Who's an inexpert user? I am not sure if you were referring to me but I can't tell. I have been a member here for a very long time and was flashing roms back when windows mobile was actually considered cool. I know a lot about flashing and fixing issues which is why I don't post hardly any questions. All I wanted to know was if I missed something because for a "really cleanest" from flash its always good to wipe dalvik cache before flashing a rom. If you would have said for an upgrade of the same base rom then I would not have mentioned anything so I am sorry if asking if wiping dalvik cache is required anymore offended your original response.

Just flashed this ROM and it's good! I love the vast amount of customization options. Just wondering, I've been reading about this Franco Kernel lately and how does Franco Kernel M2 compare to the stock kernel that comes with this ROM for all you other users? Thinking about flashing it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
Franco m2 is a good kernel that I used for a week straight but I ended up testing faux's latest kernel and it increased my battery life dramatically with the same amount of use so I have stuck with it for a while now. I love how aokp latest release has the built in color controls which work great with the faux kernel.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
This is all you want however it doesn't have little improvements it has a lot!

I have tried a bunch and ended up coming back to this ROM every time. It's the smoothest and most featured filled of them.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frenccw:
I don't think you should ask this on a ROM thread. It's gonna be really biased :D

As far as features go i think this ROM and Codename has the most. If you are only looking for "some" improvements you may have to do the research yourself because we don't know what kind you are looking for.

On the opposite of the spectrum i've only heard good things about Bugless Beast if you are looking for stability and speed.

You are an inexpert user? No. I didn't mean it and wrote not about you. An inexpert user on my mind - who at least doesn't see any difference between roms. The such user MUST to flash rom following instructions step by step without variations. And yes he MUST to clear dalvik cache so as not to make a false.

I told Timmyfoxeh that in this situation (upgrade current rom) he doesn't need to clear dalvik. And wrote you that I never wipe dalvik when flash new rom. All I have told was within the frames of this thread - using AOKP. Thats all ;)

guys, what's the best way to just backup downloaded apps and their settings and restore it once we install 4.0.4?

I know titanium does this but I don't want to backup system apps and stuff...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bemymonkey:
So just don't back up your system apps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvc:
you can also just resore user apps with TB
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raubkatze:
It doesn't backup system. You can backup/restore apps with settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Staggers:
you can choose to backup user apps+data only, using titanium. I'm doing it right now and have done it before. After you install b29, if prompted with the usual Google set up dialog, don't select the option to restore apps from Google's backup, just install titanium again and restore user apps+data only.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BryanChung:
oh no! all my data! :(

When I'm restoring from a TiBU backup, I usually skip the initial Google account setup when the ROM first boots - just tap the top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left corners of the first screen and you'll go straight to your desktop. From there, you can access TiBU (you did create the TiBU update.zip before wiping everything, right? and then you flashed that immediately after flashing your ROM so it will be installed as a system app? good!), restore your apps and data. Then add your Google account (Settings --> Accounts and Sync), and go ahead and let it restore everything. That way you'll still get wifi APs and whatnot restored to your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vomer:
Thanks guys! I did not know that option existed. Will check it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hookland:
last build is very good.

The bugs for now seems to be only charging/battery related.

So there you go:

1)If phone is ON and power cord plugged in, when i turn the screen on, the multitouch "almost every time" goes crazy, and even without touch it he does stuff (crazy stuff)!! If i remove the charger and make an off/on screen it works again without any problem.

2)I noticed that if I charge when the phone is off, battery icon show off for only 7-8 seconds (starting when you plug the cord, or after you turn off the phone), after that, screen goes off, but charge goes on without any problem.

3)Last but not least, is that with a 97% battery left, my phone in the battery setting menu says "almost discharge" wtf:confused:????

Hope can help

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cjward23:
I can only speak from my experience with htc devices. But as a rule only change your radio if there is something wrong with your current radio. Flashing radios can be dangerous. And quite often will not have any positive results.

But samsungs may be different.

I'm enjoying the rom so far, and I like the frequent updates.

You know what would be great? If you can add a few more toggles in the notification bar, like bluetooth, gps, mobile data.

Even better if make it configurable so people can choose which toggles they want to see in the bar.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DanRyb:
+1 for this. I am LOVING this ROM and you've been quick to fix the minor bugs that there have been, definitely appreciated! But as a suggestion, I like this idea. I don't "need" auto-rotate in there, but GPS and/or Bluetooth might be nice. If it's possible, as mentioned, a user choice would be AWESOME since there will never be pleasing everyone haha.

But aside from that, awesome ROM. Quick question, just out of curiousity. This is the only 4.0.3 ROM I tried. Was it you who changed the check-marks and radio buttons to blue or is that like that by default on 4.0.3? Them being green on earlier 4.0 versions always bugged me, since everything else was changed over to blue. Seemed like such a huge oversight! So yea, just curious! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Wifi working fine here, always have. What do you mean you see no bars?

And secondly...if you are on Build version...always update to the newest build (at the moment Build 11), or to the current Milestone verison before you report bugs.

He means the icon shows wifi is on and connected, but there are no bars of reception shown. Erroneously. After turning the screen off and on, the icon is refreshed and shows the appropriate wifi signal.

One thing I would like to suggest tho is a task manager or task killer

I know there are ones on the market but I can't find one that is anywhere near as professional as your ROM, so I am sure if you implement one you could do a better job!

OR, maybe you could make the app switcher actually close the app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
As you should know by now...YOU DON'T USE TASK KILLERS. They just **** up with your system in the end.

How do I close tasks then please? if the task switcher doesn't close them
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heppieboeddah:
What tasks do you mean? Applications do have most of the time an exit option. You do not need a taskkiller to close any tasks because android handles that perfetcly by itselve.

Thanks for your help, but coming from the S2 I just got used to using the built in task manager so this is why I thought I needed one :) Glad that it doesn't and I will see how i get on without one
