Sorry man,my fault..not about this rom,is about the phone itself that I don't like muktitasking,neither on stock :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:
At any rate, what don't you like about it?

You can try to adjust the Free Memory setting (Settings > ROM Control > Performance > Free memory) to a lower value, which will make the built-in task management system a bit less aggressive about killing backgrounded apps, if that's what you're after.

It will likely be a trade-off, though - keeping more apps active in memory may decrease performance.

Honestly I kept it stock. Charged it full wiped battery stats and let it fully run out.

my problem is that 7/10 when I leave a game on background maybe for write an sms or whattsapp,the game is killed...but non only game,also other apps..but it's an android problem in my opinion..Thanks for your answer anyway:D

Will there be more things translated ? Half english and half german...its important for me, I would like to make the decission between CM9 and AOKP and this would help me. Thnaks for answers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Staggers:
I don't have any special knowledge to share. I just told him what my experience with both AdAway and AdFree had been. AdAway just seemed to update its blacklist of ad servers better, since some ads were still getting through while I was using AdFree. Nothing scientific or conclusive about my test.

Is this a bug: When trying to change the color of the signal bars and the wifi icon, they don't change from cyan. But if you put them into words "100% strength or dBm", they change to the desired color
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdiddy_ub:
no..the signal bars dont change color...only text
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
How come some themes can change the color of them
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
I concur, same experience for me. Example would be Friendcaster which is blocked using AdAway but not AdFree.

Um, because they're themes which theme things. The clue is in the name.

Sarcasm aside, the theme apks contain images for many different aspects of the UI.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdiddy_ub:
changing the color of the signal bars is possible...through themes and mods...but AOKPs ROM Control doesn't change it..i wish it did though..that would be awesome

different colors for different signal strength

0-1 bar = red

2-3 bars = light green

4 bars = dark green

something like that

Anyone having issues with the play store? I thought it was because I flashed dirty (haven't downloaded an app in a couple days) so I did a full wipe and reinstalled. All apps restored, and I can update current apps but when trying to download a new app it just hangs on "download".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
Anyone on Build 36 (Not M5 or 35) get bugs with the toggles? As in, sometimes data won't turn on when needed, or auto rotation not working when clicked upon?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] republitarian:
Yes I am having this issue with autorotate , and wifi hotspot was crashing. I am using extended controls for most of my toggles until the developers fix it, hopefully in build 37
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daddymatt:
Me too.. data has to be pressed numerous times to get it to work.. but all else is perfect IMHO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Hey guys.

I may aswell repeat one of my last problems.

I'm only having my LED sometimes not triggering, especially in gtalk.

Also my voicemail number wont stick.

And Nova laucher seems to just disappear randomly, not FC just not displaying any icons. Then I have to FC it and then its ok till it does it again.

More so the LED thing. I have my phone on silent most of the time and really would like this to work, if possible.

Thanks heaps guys. If someone could help me with these, I'd be most appreciative. :-)

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frenccw:
I don't know if you have explained previously but i'll start with the obvious: Have you done a clean wipe (data/cache) before installing the rom?

If the problem persists try a different ROM to check if it isn't a hardware related issue. The LED issue might be isolated from the rest of your problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Thanks for your reply man.

Yeah I did a full data reset and cache wipe. Not like a super wipe or anything. Its weird. I had apex for ages which I still love and had no problems with led. Thought I'd try AOKP. For the most part I love this rom, just a few deal breakers.

The voicemail thing is new. The Nova thing, I dunno, could be apparently related. I'm going to try stock kernel. Probably nothing to do with it. Using the stock kernel that comes with M5.

If anyone else has any tips I'd be wrapped to here them. :-)

Thanks again guys. :-)

Sometimes when I'm losing connection, in the train for example, the network will never come back unless I reboot.

The next bug is that Gmail doesn't push anymore. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
Try flashing another kernel for the data problem (such as Franco milestone 3), and make sure that you are on the PRIMELA03 bootloader together with latest baseband. I use XXLA2 in Europe...

Check in settings>accounts>your google account that gmail sync is enabled. It was disabled for me...

Any one know why YouTube app says "connection to server lost. Touch to retry". It works fine over wifi but mobile data has this error.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Hey

I read that bootloader and radio should be sort of at the same level? Latest etc? If there different, example, a 4.0.3 bootloader and a 4.0.4 kernel/rom, things like signal problems can occur?

Or they have no correlation?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
There shouldn't be a problem with mismatching radios/boot loaders etc. Unless you use one that is designed for a different version of Android e.g. 4.0.2 vs 4.0.4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
i'm on milestone 5.

I'm curious to know if there is anyway to modify the lockscreen so the clock is centered. the previous rom i was on had it centered and i prefer that.

i've looked around the rom and found no option, but i'm hoping i can mod/hack a file somewhere and get it to be centered.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SubyWill:
I would also like to know why adaway is better :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SubyWill:
Yup, I have that and it annoys the hell out of me. Sometimes I have to wait like 2 seconds for it to do anything. It's so frustrating. And this is after a completely fresh install, no dirty flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] orihuri:
Instead of reboot turn on airplane mode and turn it off and you're good to go

I will test francos kernel, but can i still adjust the colors within rom control with this kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicknowsky:
Ive been doing tHAT for every ROM for 3 years now going back to the G1 days, its just good practice to do a full wipe.......always
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
More up to date host files...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
It possibly a bit philosophical for this thread but it's probably not best described as "good practice" but rather "safe practice".

For all practical purposes, if you understand how the Android architecture works, some updates are quite safe to dirty flash.

"Good practice" in my opinion is knowing enough to determine for yourself if a dirty flash is safe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
I guess you should be able to do it through rom control even tough I personally use franco's app from the play store to do that. =)

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 PM ----------

Well, Nikademus who makes the FuguMod kernel told me that running different level of bootloader/radio can cause issues. And one time it actually solved signal drops for me so I guess there is some truth about it.

Now I always use 4.0.4 recommended bootloader+radio: PRIMELA03 and XXLA2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Of course there are times when dirty is safe... in a situation such as this in a thread where the devs are present but are spread thin, newer folk may run into problems not knowing when it's safe. That's why I say always wipe. Then for those who know, cool, if not then they're always safe. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wbonney4:
+1 raycaster is always on point with the advice. I have practiced this over the past 5 years and I rarely run into issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
That made me smile; you'd never run into dirty flash related issues if you wiped all the time... ;)

Not rarely, never.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeoMustain:
Just for the record, I might be living dangerously but I came to this ROM on B33 and from there till now has all been dirty flash with just a cache and dalvik cache wipe. Of course everything is backed up and ready to full wipe if I face issues. Issues that other users with clean wipes are not facing.

I have been using AOKP for several months now and i love it but im forced to go back to stock cuz I need several gapps you wont include in the gapps pack.. Like gmaps, gmusic, gvoice and others wich i can not download from market because im outside usa and the store wont allow me to..

Thats with market enabler without it there gapps wont even show in the list

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcsww:
So far, I am really enjoying this ROM (running build 35). Only bug I have noticed so far is that changing the HEX colors under the Navigation Bar menu with the phone in landscape causes a force close of the ROM Control. Otherwise, I am really enjoying this one more than any others I have tried.

I do have a couple n00b questions though. I can't seem to find the setting that allows me to copy and paste between the Virtual SD card over USB. When connected, it just charges currently. Does anyone happen to know which setting and where it is that I need to change? The search and voice search that apppear ont he left in landscape mode. Is there any way to turn them that off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
There are so many ways to get those apks other than the gapps package. That should never be a reason. There's the inverted gapps threadnon Rootz for example and then there are several file hosting places... I bet if you posted a req in the themes and apps section for those apks you'd time someone willing to share. Google is the reason all of those apps aren't in the gapps package btw.

>>DARKSIDE<<
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:

1) Make sure Fast Charge isn't enabled.

2) Settings > Storage > Menu > USB Computer Connection > MTP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarni84:
I really like the inverted gapps especially with this rom and the infinitum theme.... hey ray this phone is def a step up in my eyes from the t989. Ics on the nexus isn't hacked and runs the way it should! As soon as I sell it though aokp comes out for it :p its prolly really nice too. Overall I'm really glad I got this phone couldn't be happier....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
Well i know theres other ways but Thers lot of false downloads even more than the real apk, happened with gmaps.. Downloaded from several sites and was just virus..

Finally i found some 1 to post the gmaps for me here in the forum but then the apk is not linked to market and i wont receive updates so is not a workaround

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
AOKP Milestone 5. Two things.

1) I'm curious to know if there is anyway to modify the lockscreen so the clock is centered. the previous rom i was on had it centered and i prefer that.

i've looked around the rom and found no option, but i'm hoping i can mod/hack a file somewhere and get it to be centered.

2) On my install, the nav buttons are not centered. it's only off by a little bit, but you can easily tell when on the homescreen looking at the app drawer button.

anyone else have this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SupraN0va:
You mean not centered like this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Brent87:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
@supranova: lockscreen, not notifybar

@Brent87: thanks, hope you can find it, i've tried with no luck.

And heres a picture of what i mean by the nav buttons not being centered. (see attached)

*edit* also just opened up photoshop and looked that that screenshot and one with CNA 1.6 and after adding a guide at perfectly centered, the AOKP home is off to the right by 2 pixels and CNA is to the left by 1 pixel.

I am a new Nexus user and I just flashed AOKP m5 & Franco m3. However, I am having difficulties connecting to my home wifi. I get stuck at "obtaining IP address" and it never connects successfully.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ohliu:
Try 1) going to the wifi network screen, 2) long press on the network you wanna connect to, 3) select forget network, and 4) try to connect again. If this still doesn't fix it, start from step 1 to 3 again, reboot, and reconnect.

Hope this helps. =)

Hi there

Appreciate the advice but this is hardly a solution as it means I have to key in my SSID name and password everytime I want to connect to my home wifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Were you after stock 4.0.4 Rom, or stock AOKP Rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Hey man.

I might be way off here but try going into rom control - nav bar options - menu visibility and either remove or put back to right. Whatever its on change it to the other.

Dunno, just thought.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dropback:
Is your SSID hidden?

DHCP turned on?

Any filter that does not allow new (Wlan) devices?

Maybe try to reboot the router, and if your SSID is hidden make it visible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maniac2403:
I see you replaced the recent icon with a search icon. Try replacing it back to stock and checking if the gap still exists. I don't have this issue, but I haven't done extensive testing with two different ROM's.

The issue could well be with your Router. I would recommend forgetting the network and trying to add it as a new network. Apart from that, check if other devices are able to connect to the router as a new network. If not, then check DHCP settings as well as range of IP addresses the router is giving out.

Download the voodoo control app and set it to warm tone. You can get the app in supercurio's thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kohkohnut:
I managed to connect by going to my router settings to assign a static IP for my nexus. This is kind of weird as all other devices (i9000,i9100,n7000) in my home are able to connect without the need for a static IP.

I foresee that this will be a problem if I were to try to connect to a public wifi network as I will not be able to force a static IP. Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maniac2403:
I don't have any issues with dynamic IP assignment. The problem more likely is with your router configuration. Did you try forgetting network on your phone and trying connecting again? What normally happens is your router might assign the IP normally taken by the phone to another device and the phone keeps trying to get that IP. Forgetting and adding as a new network definitely helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Question....

If I flash the bootloader image file from the AOSP download from Google, will it be locked or unlocked? And either way, will it wipe anything? Or cause any data lose really. Is there anything I need to know before I do this?

Thanks guys.

PS. Also my LED isn't always triggering, especially in gtalk. If anyone has any insight into this at all, please, please let me know.

Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
You can flash the bootloader using cwm.I attach the cwm version below. The bootloader that came with 4.0.4 is primeLA03 I think.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kohkohnut:
Yes I tried the "forget" option and tried restarting my phone as well. But still no go until I manually assigned a static IP from my router.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coldfusionb:
I was just wondering if you use the performance tweaks built in the rom or a app such as Setcpu to control the cpu.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maniac2403:
Only reason why I would use Set CPU is to set profiles for kernel speeds and changing voltages. Except that the performance tweak can do everything that Set CPU can do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
No change.

is it like this for you two? or anyone else?

also, still curious about the centered lockscreen clock mod/hack if possible
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kohkohnut:
Same issue here. I can't receive files via BT. Haven't tried sending though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maniac2403:
AFAIK, center lock screen clock mod does not exist yet, except inbuilt with ROM's. Your screen shot does look normal to me with nav bar icons centered.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
unfortunately it's not. i opened it up in photoshop and confirmed that it's 2 pixels to the right. and on the phone it's even easier to tell.

codename android was actually 1 pixel to the left, and i always thought it was off a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maniac2403:
If you look at the image I posted, the gap is due to the difference in PNG image files for the icons. It should be more or less similar in most roms because it normally is Google code modified by rom makers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
so your saying it's because of the actual icon instead of the rom itself.

interesting. in that case, it may be possible to fix it simply by modifying the image slightly. going to test this out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lush78:
If flashing a new bootloader, i recommend flashing it though fastboot... You will not lock your bootloader or loose any data... Boot your phone into bootloader mode and use the following commands in fastboot...

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primela03.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

To flash radio use these commands... where xxxxx represents the radio best suited for your region...

fastboot flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxxxx.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
another question.

i made a set of custom icons now for the soft keys, and replacing the main ones was easy in the rom control. but theres no way to replace the menu ones in there.

can i use root explorer/metamorph or is that not advisable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
I think you can unpack systemUI.apk, then exchange the icons and then repack it and sign it and it's good to go. Might be more to it, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Not sure about it going to the lock screen as mine doesn't do that but check to see if Phone > Settings > Return to home screen is checked.

Just pull the apks from a stock rom or use the inverted as they get updated.

I always create my own gapps zip that has everything I want and need.

The stock kernel is by Faux, you can get it from his thread over at Rootz or just pull the boot.img from the rom zip.
