whoa!! the latest 3.55 (22may) build is lightening fast! i thought i needed franco kernel for oc, but now it seems as if my phone was reborn. no lag whatsoever...

and halo works outstandingly well too.

thanks for the hard work! I'm going to try franco's kernel later again to see how things fare. but i think its unnecessary for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jumparound246:
+1 for smoothness and fastness.

Running the latest version since today in the morning and i'm impressed by it.

Flashed my favourite kernel (ak 801.Ceylon) 2 hours ago and it feels a bit better than it was before. Awesome, awesome, awesome! Thanks for this great rom :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Not the last alpha, they said "one of the last alphas". Should be beta in not too long hopefully though. ;)

I am having issues with PA and the radio it comes with. My signal is very weak with this ran for some reason and I just don't know what to do. I have no bars on average, and when I'm in an area where I typically get great reception, I only have one bar. I've tried the searching the radio dumps thread, but no avail. Does anyone know what I can/should do? If I can't resolve this issue, I may have to unroot and revert to stock. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] N1XM1X:
PA doesn't come with a radio AFAIK

it costs nothing to thank someone who helps

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andriodee:
Well, could you, perhaps, link me with a stable, working radio? I'd certainly like to enjoy more than edge connectivity. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] N1XM1X:
are you using maguro? just before i link you to the wrong radio

EDIT also what country are you in?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andriodee:
Yes, I'm using Maguro, and I live in the United States.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] N1XM1X:
download the top 1 of these to your phone and flash in recovery.

3.56 // halo 7

new alpha up on goo.im :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opensourcefan:
It is just as stable as my last AOKP 37 setup.

It has almost all the features but they are just in a different type of format that's all. The point of this ROM is the tablet/hybrid mode, that should be your primary reason to change, if not I would stick with AOKP or Vanilla CM9.

Most of the phone is running at 240 from what I can see so far. Many user apps will need to be setup once installed.

Market works perfectly and there's no reason why is shouldn't because the app itself along with all apps can have their own DPI and UI mode set.

Another problems comes out is that my GN ringtones is lost!!!! normal Alarm, notification. But when someone call in my GN have no sound.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ARHMogul:
First off great rom! Much improvement from CM9. :)

I am curious how you enter the custom dpi in per app settings? I can select it as an option, but it does not allow me to enter a value like in CM9. Is this intentional, or should I re-flash? Oh, and like others have said Torch FC's when you toggle it. No worries bud, just figured you would like to know. Thank's again for the hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] navodwickra:
settings->panandroid settings-> choose app and then enter the custom dpi value
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mihkohuy:
and yeah this bug is discovered from 0.9b and now i confirmed
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goan0900:
You have to fix your permissions, without that you get trouble. I did it and all my problems are gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergej_7:
@molesarecoming

could you include a zip in the first post of your rom, for stock cm kernel, Grand Theft Auto III is not working with francos kernel

the autocorrect bar above the keyboard has still the wrong dpi, i guess a custom setting like for only the nav bar could lead to a 100 % perfect keyboard. also is it possible to make a custom clock in the nav bar? for example the stock one from Phone UI is much smaller and would lead to more space

why do we have duplicate app drawer buttons? could this be fixed with settings in the next update? a setting for disabling the dock in trebuchet would achieve a natural tablet look but with both drawer buttons there it looks cluttered, i know that there are alternative launchers that can do that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goan0900:
It´s not a duplicate app drawer, that is the Tablet UI of trebuchet, just change the one at the bottom and you only have one left

and for the size, just go into setting -> paranoid setting -> hybrid setting -> List apps and then to all apps and go to Trebuchet and change the DPI Settings and it will get bigger

The new release is fantastic. The phone is super smooth, the apps open in a flash, and the animations are gorgeous again.

The pulsing animation on the Halo is eye catchy. Finally the Halo is working as it was intended to work :victory:

All this based on stock kernel.

Cannot wait to run it with AK SKL255. :laugh:

@6 cannost install from SD card

Hi,

I faced an issue; cannot install from SD card with HALO @6

Downloading @7 right now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilwilwel:
**solved**

Installed today and did some testing. (clean dalvik/cache/system before installing)

- 23-5 newest PA version 3,56

- PA gapps 2130522 (latest)

- AK kernel 255 / romkernel PA / Franco latest stable tested

For all versions of PA Halo up to A7 I noticed facebook is not opening. Facebook still opens as a full app outside Halo. Tapping the Halo just start Facebook, but doesnt give any weird errors. It even redirects to the correct Facebook threat..

Included the logcat and device info.

*****

most simplistic sollution ever i feel so dumb

appdrawer => Halo = > stop Halo service upper right corner => remove app not working => add app again => start service upper right corner

test it again works flaweless now

thats not a problem or a bug , search the thread read the post placed up on G+ then you will understand .

Download extended power menu in the playstore and put it on the halo app. Also download the fast reboot app, it refreshes all the processes and it helps to lessen the lag. ;) There's a lot of things you can do with halo that's why I'm stuck with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] one2one69:

There's a slight bug with Nova Launcher and transparent nav bar and status bar. When you open the app drawer, the black background of the app drawer doesn't fade in like it should, but it appears immediately. Try changing the transition speed to Relaxed in Nova settings and you'll see what I'm talking about. This doesn't happen when the nav bar and status bar aren't transparent.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DieGo316:
try another launcher, if that continues to happen maybe is a ROM problem but if it doesnt its Novas fault, still you need to report your bugs to

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaluoshi:
using apex here, no problem at all :) (bought pro one since yesterday, but on free one too its super fine)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edinchez:
I use Nova because of the big grid size options (16x16). Can't do that in Apex, and that's the only reason why I don't use any other launchers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DieGo316:
then probably its a Nova thing bro, i think you can use big grids in thunder launcher its pretty good but try it just to check if the problem persists so bigbro can know if its a nova or rom problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilwilwel:
- removed all FB apps from HALO)))

- de installed FB messenger after removing settings chat heads

- de installed FB ext.

- de installed FB

- reboot

- cleared HALO settings by app cache deleting

- reboot

- installed only FB no more messenger

- added FB to HALO)))

- started service + reboot

- tested

Still the facebook notifications keep opening in Facebook it self instead of HALO)))

Yet starting Facebook as an app in HALO is no problem and works perfectly as designed.

Any other idea´s?? Gonna do a total clean install when I get home.

clean flashed the 23th PA with AK kubo r46 kernel. At first impression, the status bar in tablet mode flickers when opened and the lag is considerabile bigger than previous versions.

What kernel are you using for the moment because in my opinion AK 801.Cylone was the best so far!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vn800art:
Hello! Starting from last 3.55 ( and with actual 3.56 ) seem lag has gone, using stock kernel. With 3.55 first boot I had 1 reboot, with 3.56 no reboot and very fast boot also.

Wanted to share

What will happen with Franco !!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dee8905:
I think kernel performance is depending on what ROM you are using, just my 2 cents.

On PA 1.99x's I find morfic's Trinity fits me best, then on PA 3.x's pre HALO I find AK performs very well on battery/smoothness basis (try out Nephilim's settings). Right now I'm trying Fancy kernel and the smoothness of it are very pleasing, but I haven't found out how much battery life I can get out of this kernel.

TL;DR, you've got to do trial and error to know which kernel is the best for you. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jumparound246:
Also tried several kernel but since 3.5 i stick with ak.801.cylon cause my experience is best with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OMFGNuts:
