The ROM seems to be running great, but the facebook sync for me is all screwed up. It seems like it's either all or nothing when syncing with facebook contacts. Even with just using the existing contacts ticked box, it pushes ALL of my facebook friends on there. Is there something I can do about that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k.electron:
I just copy them over to any folder via USB and install zip from sdcard and navigate in cwm. Works fine.

Toggle LED Flashlight option greyed out

Anyone find an app or tweak to enable this option in the widget controls? Only piece missing for my toggles and, oddly enough, it is essential for me.

Awesome ROM in all respects.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wade-0:
I noticed that too. Not only did it pull down everyone, even though I had the box checked to only sync existing contacts, but it's missing pictures for most of the them. And I've already gone through and "hidden" all of them once, and now they're back again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
I've had to do this for both my maguro, and my coworker's toro to get it working in Windows.

Manually go into device manager, install the missing driver. Say you have the disk, and specify that it is Google -> ADB Interface.

Yes, unfortunately FB sync is not perfect. This is the behavior that it will take on all ROMs that have it enabled (via romanbb's fix -- which is every ROM).

I personally just use HaxSync. Yes, it's 99 cents, but it syncs in high res (256x256) vs the native feature which only syncs in 96x96 (if it does at all).

No idea what option you're talking about. Can you be specific?

Mms not sending in build 3

I just tried to send a pic to someone and it has been saying sending for like an hr now...I rebooted and nothing...I even tried canceling the message and sending again and still same results. Is there a fix...I am running build 3

Update...One thing I forgot to try was clearing cache in messaging app...did that and all is well. Awesome ROM!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Howie Dub:
He wants to be able to enable the "toggle LED flashlight" option that is greyed out and not selectable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gongadin:
Man, REALLY loving this rom so far. Only tried this one and Gummynex so far, and nothing against gummy, but I like the custom auto brightness and the customizable notification toggle widgets that this one has and gummy doesn't (yet?). Have yet to find a bug in my everyday use. One suggestion I might humbly request is battery percentage always on the lockscreen, or at least a toggle for it. Thanks.

Thank you for this rom bigxie, love it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesssiii:
That toolkit allows you to go back to complete stock img without using the computer and adb?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilfleck:
I will agree with this suggestion for the battery percentage in the lockscreen. That would be nice.

What's in store for the next release?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yay 4 Juggs:
just tried to flash and got to the point of installing update then got installation aborted...also displayed is a dead droid with a red triangle coming from his chest...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trevoryour:
I just switched to this from Axi0m 2.3. First thing I noticed was that the battery life wasn't as good as it was on Axi0m. I checked the betterbatterystats and it appears that google maps it keeping my phone from sleeping. My Partial Wakelocks show a service called PrefetchersService and the details show com.google.android.apps.maps.Maps. The duration is 2. hours and 44 minute. CPUSpy shows that the phone was awake longer then it should have.

Has anyone else seen this or know what is causing this? I"m assuming this is the cause of poor battery life. If not, would loading the kernel thats in Axi0m restore the battery life I had in Axi0m?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_Junky:
Is the Black Exodus theme working with the CDMA version? I see that Exodus 2.2 was released but he referred to it as Bigxie 8.0 which appears to be the GSM. Just curious if anyone has tried it.

Tried wiping dalvik but got an error something about sdcard ext
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gongadin:
So far so good. Love the new customization section. Thanks!

I found a bug in Trebuchet. Homescreens can become "invisible" after entering the app drawer. To fix this, go into trebuchet settings, homescreens, and check the 'fade side pages' option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 91ludesit:
The phrase "you're doing it wrong comes to mind", but bigxie I love your rom. However I cannot get anything after build 1 to deep sleep. Even if I just install it, don't restore any apps or data, no accounts to sync or anything. The only app I installed was CPUSpy. I have plenty of 4g coverage at my house so I know the phone isn't awake searching for a signal. I've tried it with the stock kernel, franco's kernel, and the tuna kernel from Faux123.

PS - I made sure to start and close the camera app after a reboot.

PPS - The other thing I noticed is the phone get super hot just sitting idle with the screen off using your rom.

What am I doing wrong here?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alemondemon:
I flashed the above link but now I am unable to move the clock to the center of the modification bar, or adjust the navigation bar (add search key, etc). Does anybody know what I am doing wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_Junky:
The reason you have problems is because the file you flashed replaced the SystemUI.apk with an on older app. I suppose you could pull the same app from the latest release and replace the app in the zip file and try to re-flash but this is just a guess. I've never tried it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Updated OP with build 4-2. Minor bug fixes to Trebuchet, updated kernel to fix some wakelock issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alemondemon:
Do you know, by any chance, when you could slip in a battery % addon? Thanks for your hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 91ludesit:
Any clue if deep sleep is fixed this time around? I still couldn't get build 4 to deep sleep properly with no apps installed other then CPUspy, and no accounts set to sync. Also and LTE toggle would be great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crupp:
Plus one on the LTE toggle. Just came over to this ROM and digging it so far. Deep sleep...how do know if this is effecting the ROM?

Ok, so I installed CPUspy. In the heading "Unused CPU states" it says Deep Sleep. Not real sure what that means though. If the Deep Sleep is working what would make the phone go into Deep Sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alemondemon:
With the help of some folks around XDA I made a circle battery mod (or rather hacked it together from other people's codes, like ljwnow) for v9. It certainly works with the build from 1/15/2012. Should also work with the current build, but I haven't tested it. Try at your own risk:

Just flash in CWM after you flashed the rom and gapps. It works perfect for me and I didn't wipe anything, just flashed it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hxdrummerxc:
These new AOSP roms are awesome, and I would be all over it....

But every AOSP rom that I try, seems to break the transparent soft key and status bar mods....

I hate having the plain black background behind the soft nav keys, so I used the transparent mod, and then added a dock to my wallpaper to make it look like there is a background behind the soft keys.... but those transparent soft keys mods seem to just break these AOSP roms. It just breaks the SystemUI, and makes the phone un-usable (no status bar or soft keys at all) until you restore from backup.

First person to take an AOSP rom and make an option to make the soft keys and status bar transparent/translucent.... Would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 808computers:
With this latest 4-2 build, my navigation bar sometimes disappears completely. Is anyone else experiencing this or am I doing something wrong? I upgraded from 2-2 by wiping cache and dalvik only, flashed rom then gapps then battery mod v9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] truedis:
Anyone having issues with their nav bar being off center (toward the left) when running at 240dpi on v4-2. I was on v2 and didn't have this issue, but just upgraded and noticed it. I noticed that there are now options to add search & menu buttons to the bar, but I have these disabled ... maybe the new options have something to do with it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
+1 for Center Clock and Battery%
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Center clock is already an option in the rom. Battery percentage is coming in the next build.

I'm aware of the issue with 240dpi, it is because of custom soft keys. Still looking into it, but admittedly not too high a priority since custom dpi users are in the very small minority.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ptfdmedic:
Anyone have My Verizon working? I'm missing a login client? I can't seem to figure out whats actually missing. Great ROM by the way. Best one available, in my opinion :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChickenGod:
Download Verizon Login from the market.

Is anyone else besides me getting deep sleep issues with this ROM?

EDIT: Watchdog alerted me to some "media manager" that was a system app and after I killed it, my phone went into deep sleep just fine. I think that's the problem. Either way, I'm probably gonna flash another ROM until this is fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] truedis:
Any option to maybe flash stock nav bar or something? I don't need the customization.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robitron929:
extract systemUI.apk from the system folder of a stock rom then copy and paste in your system folder and hit replace existing ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tikerz:
New to the Galaxy Nexus and trying different ROMs. Does this ROM have full PowerVR SGX 540 GPU rendering? Sorry if it's a dumb question.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Every ROM has full GPU hardware acceleration. Any dev that leads you to believe otherwise is full of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boricuastock:
google wallet

I just wanted to get confirmation from others on google wallet for this ROM. I set it up last night and haven't had the opportunity to test it. I just don't want the infamous "secure element" error that can damage the nfc. I took a backup before setting it up with clockwork. Are there any "steps" to ensure that it works? I am sure it works fine but wondered if there was any feedback on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ohnoezmahfone:
Version 4-2 made everything haywire, for me

Hi All,

Version 3 was great for me, except that I was having the occasional crash/reboot when starting a google app-- I had it twice on gtalk, once on gmail, and once on maps (which from further searching appears to be a GNex/ICS problem generally, perhaps?). So I upgraded to 4-2 and that made everything go sideways.

Face unlock was allowing me to pull down the windowshade and get into the settings without unlocking, but I reset the security option to face unlock and that fixed it.

My gtalk shows all my contacts as offline, even when they're not, and so I tried wiping the app then deleting my profile and adding it again. Then the system won't remember the account so that I have to add it every time. And after all that I still have the freezes and the gtalk problem.

Since prior iterations were working fine, and no one else is reporting such behavior, I think I'll try reverting to stock and then re-flashing a freshly downloaded version. Just wanted to throw that out there if anyone is having similar issues.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ohnoezmahfone:
Yeah, must have been a bad download or user error :) flash to stock and back again fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 808computers:
I went through a couple of failed attempts before I got Wallet to work but I think we can attribute that to OE (operator error). There aren't that many places in my area that have the necessary wireless credit terminals but I did get it to work fine at a Jack-in-the-Box and a McDonald's. Don't judge me. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
OP updated with new build. Please wipe cache and dalvik prior to upgrading, and flash gapps immediately afterwards prior to rebooting.

Also, please read the quirks and things to know sections of the first post prior to reporting any bugs.

Thanks, enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tikerz:
Awesome, thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gongadin:
Seems to be working great so far. Didn't think I would like the offset battery % after seeing it in the screenshots but I actually love it. Phone seems to wake much faster now too, assume because of the new kernel.

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k.electron:
if i dont want some gapps, can i just open the gapps zip using winrar or something and delete the apks i dont want?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] belair56:
You sure can, or delete them after you flash. The gapps that I use are a big assortment of blacked-out or transparent widgets apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChickenGod:
I posted this on rootzwiki but I had some issues with this ROM and deep sleep. What I did to fix it was turn off all gps in the settings... If you guys want to replicate it, disable all gps settings and reboot. Use cpu spy to check for deep sleep and use betterbatterystats to check for "gps-lock" under kernel wakelock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stank0:
bigxie you are the best. I tried them all. Your rom kicks all of them assess. Good job!!!

I flashed trinity kernel over franco's one and now my phone scores over 3000 in quadrant while my baterry loses <1%/1hr.

I SERIOUSLY undervolted it too.

Gr8 Job dude.

Edit: ONE thing. Please put LTE toggle in the notification power widget.

Edit2: Btw. I switched from Gummy to codename to apex without wiping data. Runs gr8.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
Updated OP with some bugfixes.

Pretty sure I found the cause of the deepsleep issue some users were having (gps wakelock) and remedied it. Also, I messed up the busybox install on the previous version, so that's been fixed.

And a couple other minor changes (in the changelog in the OP).

Same deal, wipe cache/dalvik, don't forget gapps. Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoZhU:
great job ! love your ROM :D

little suggest, prefer the boot animation of HD2.1.3 ROM ;);)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
You can easily extract the animation from another ROM if you wish.

I'm not changing mine...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] illcat2000:
Don't know of its a bug or what but o had the stock battery when I went to bed but when I woke up the % was in the icon. Nothing big I just know I didn't select it. Everything is running great definitely my fav rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoZhU:
Sure you can, but delete after flash by using RE or ES is more safety :)

See what cannot remove carefully :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stank0:
I'm bragging about my battery life in other thread but I feel like I have to thank bigxie for this amazing rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Funzy32:
This rom is by far the best. Its a battery sipper right from the start. Excellent job!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChickenGod:
Can anyone pull out the boot animation for me and post it? Franco's kernel replaced the boot animation and I really like Apex's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazydog115:
I'm not sure if this is an issue with this ROM or the Galaxy Nexus itself, but I've noticed that I cannot get a GPS fix while running Apex (Since before it was called Apex, version 2) unless I open something like GPS Test+ and clear my AGPS.

Here's another +1 for the battery life. Very impressed. I charged it a little during the day, but not much. Still really good!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ecs1984:
simply unzip the Apex ROM file and browse to system>media, the file is called "bootanimation.zip". bang, done!

some further guidance in case: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1364044
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigxie:
OP updated with 1.0.2 build. Some bugfixes. Added templates in Messaging (gesture based), and custom carrier text in the notification pulldown.

No pressure.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bplewis24:
Same here. I haven't rooted or ROMmed yet, but I've been following this ROM for about a month now. I will root for the first time and flash this ROM when 4.0.4 is available. Can't wait.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k.electron:
i would recommend flashing the 4.0.3 version out right now because... u can..

and its an experience you will not be able to go back from.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swagner53:
Fab has said on another forum that there will not be a 4.0.4 release unless it becomes official. I don't think he wants to build on a leak (understandably).

I have flashed the new radios, as well as the newest lean kernel (1.9) and signal is a bit better (not a ton but switch from 3g to 4g and back is faster). Battery has improved. Speed is impressive and things have been very stable.

Fab-- you're a genius!

Apex 1.0.2 (4.0.3)

when u said new radios, are u trying the 4.0.4 radios with apex?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swagner53:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bplewis24:
By "official" does he mean the OTA starts pushing out to more phones, or that 4.0.4 is pushed to AOSP?

probably the latter, since i think fab builds out of aosp.

[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
Doubt a launcher would allow to make a shortcut into those settings but then again I've never used that one before

probably sent to from the middle of a lake in central Minnesota
[Motorola Droid X2] robocuff:
I use a battery widget called Quick Battery for this. I've used it for a long time without any ill effects on the phone. Anyway, when you first add the widget to the home screen, it prompts you as to what activity you want it to launch when you press on the widget. Select testing and the widget becomes your shortcut to the Testing thing.

If you don't want to install a widget like that, there's an app called Any Cut that you can use to make a shortcut to it. Open Any Cut, select activity and then testing and you'll have your shortcut. If you use Any Cut, when you select activity, it will appear to not load anything in the list (does on mine anyway). The list is there. Just scroll down and the list will appear.

I'm sure you can do it with Launcher Pro too. I've never tried to find the command needed as it was easier to just go the route I did. :) If you use Launcher Pro, you might try long pressing the desktop and choosing shortcut/activities in the list. There's a lot of system stuff in there that you can select to create a shortcut for. I looked in there for this particular one but I didn't find it. There's a lot to look at though so I suppose I could have missed it in there.

Hello all, after reading through all the frustrating problems with the mango update, I had lost hope in buying this. But now Dell sells factory installed Mango devices. Will it be any differentthan the ones you guys have?.

Maybe those gkitches have been solved?. I will await for your much valuable advice.
[Venue Pro General] weatherx:
the one i bought right before xmas came with 7395. it updated to mango without problem though.
[Venue Pro General] MJCS:
Just plug in your phone and update. The hickups you are reading are from people that have installed custom roms for the most part.
[Venue Pro General] chaihg:
Is that so? I thought the Mango update broke the compass and wifi. I thought that buying a pre-installed Mango device would most probably be tested or rectified than the earlier builds which came with Win7.

If that is not the case and if upgrading to Mango via Zune is good enough then I am buying it now. Right now.

Am I right in my assumption?
[Venue Pro General] MJCS:
Mango didnt break the compass Dell did.
[Venue Pro General] MisterPhilleh:
The non-functioning compass is not at the fault of Microsoft or the 7.5 update. Dell did that, for various reasons I'd rather not repeat due to profanity restrictions.

I bought mine around June of 2011, didn't come with 7.5 on it, but when the update started rolling out, I didn't feel like waiting and forced Zune to apply the update to my phone.

It went smoothly for the most part(my computer restarted a few times during the update process, but that's probably a problem related to my particular hardware.), and the phone has been running smoothly for the most part. I've only had to pull the battery twice out of the couple of months that I've had the update installed. Apparently there are compass issues, but I've never really had to use the compass in any app, most navigation apps (I use the standard Maps and GMaps Pro) seem to work just fine without it.

You'll love the phone, definitely won't be something you regret buying, in my opinion. But with the newest round of WP7.5 devices coming around, you might want to stick it out a bit more and see if you can get something a little more worth your money.
[Venue Pro General] chaihg:
Thats a fantastic piece of advice. Even though Lumia is available for cheap in part of europe I come from, I want to relish the physical keyboard in DVP hence am contemplating. I almost went to the extent of clicking the BUY IT NOW on eBay and then figured I will talk some gurus here.

This will be my first Windows Phone and hence I will spend less money and buy a DVP. Let me see for 6months to what Nokia has in store for us. 170euros for 6months is pretty good value for money.

If anybody else has a piece of cake to share with me, please do so. :)
