Since you're in the Verizon Gnex section I would presume you have a verizon gnex...in which case, you download Toro builds.

Thanks.. just to confirm..WIFI Tether works, right? I recall earlier JB Roms had issues, and some workaround had to be done

Whats the pink hat icon in the Toggle drop down?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SirBindy:
For the umpteenth time: Swagger toggle. It's from AOKP. It does nothing.

sheesh
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UBNAS81:
Yes, I am using XenonHD Jellybean with Trinity kernal - the phone calls work just fine through bluetooth, and the horrible MB Comand system doesnt support bluetooth audio - even though i got the updated audio package - wtf! Either way, my phone wont connect to my coolstream bluetooth receiver that i plugged into my ipod dock in the car. It sees it, i select, connect, enter password, and get error that it cannot pair. I read in a few places about a bluetooth and wifi fix, but im not sure if this would solve my problem. I know its not the receiver because my old Droid X will connect and pair with no problems.

Any help for a fix of this would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having Playstore issues. Keep getting 'Package file is invalid" error. I cleared data/cache from Playstore and went to recovery and wiped cache/dalvic
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
Play Store works fine for me with this ROM -- you might want to try uninstalling the App and reinstalling?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Testman08:
I really like the options available on this ROM. However, I can't seem to get my icons to layout correctly. 4×4 option seems to offer too much space within each row of icons and 5×4 doesn't work for me either. Is there a way to remove search bar? Also I use fancy widgets for clock and weather widgets. 4×2 widget setting seems to not allow 2 rows of icons beneath it. Are there options to adjust other than 5×4 or 4×4?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blanko6:
This can't be right !

Been struggling with battery life. Please any advice will be appreciated.

I have trinity kernel 35

Fb - twitter and emails but they all set up to manual refresh .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SpunkyXL:
I can't tether with this rom :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veedubrocks:
Like the guys on page 31, I'm having the same issue that the screen goes on every 10 seconds and the lockscreen flickers "charging 39%" but it's not all the time just randomly.

Anybody have any idea?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smittycg:
Try Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SeXyStEpH87:
Downloading right now I really like this ROM but I wasn't happy with that battery life I'll get back to you with my feedback, I see that you fixed the battery calibration so gonna give the update a shot :)

PS I can just flash this over the old version? Or do u have to do a full wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinniven:
Google wallet

Does this have the new Google Wallet? Thx!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iceandfire:
Do a dirty flash. Clean wipe is recommended for people who are having performance issues like lag and ****.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SeXyStEpH87:
OK awesome, is there a recommendation on a kernel or should I keep it as it is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
Very fast ROM and and also very customizable , I'm liking this ROM nice job dev
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thadrow:
Is tether working in the new version ? Saw around in other threads something about the new aosp build tracking down on tethering.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hogowner:
There are a few Bluetooth fixes in the market.....may work for you and others with problems

Should we use the gapps in the op....or should we use a later version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
Just installed - dirty flash. Re-flashed GApps (maybe not necessary?), reinstalled my copy of Google Ears. Seems that all my accounts were remembered except my Google account - had to log in again and activate Google Now again after that. Also had to reinstall Verizon Login (pesky!), and turn off WiFi so I could log into it (known limitation). With all that done - looks like everything back in place.

Is it my imagination, or is this even smoother and slicker than before?

Just discovered some of the new stuff -

Nav bar color and glow settings (cool!)

Button Glow animation duration

Nav button transparency control

Weather (I use Beautiful Widgets...but this new built in weather shows on the lock screen - sweet!)

Performance settings! governors, IO scheduler, voltage settings, fast charge... (fast charge and voltage controllable from interface - but requires a kernel that supports it - not in the default kernel...)

Just what I've seen in the first few mins... Once again...great ROM! Thx to iceandfire!

EDIT: ok...my bad, assuming kernel doesn't support fast charge or undervolting... no issue. Interface does, so I'll be trying other kernels for this...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amessina:
Awesome ROM. I just flashed to the latest version and its awesome!

I have seriously tried a dozen other roms and I have found bugs in ALL of them! Forget about features for a moment, this is the most stable ROM out there!

3 comments/suggestions

- Can you put some type of "backup xenon settings feature? Its helpful when you clean flash

- Can you incorporate some of the aggressive brightness adjustments that other ROMs incorporate?

- Battery life for me is horrible. The ROM is so ridiculously fast, does it sacrifice battery for performance? Read my story below

I'm using a stock battery (by choice, don't like the extended), constant usage, and I'm getting about 2-3 hrs of battery life. Heavy usage (music, reading PDFs, gps on, lte on, WiFi on). Still I don't want to turn these off and on, as its a pain. Standby time is about 6-10 hrs. I'm also using a faux 20b5 kernel as its the snappiest. I suspect its the kernel, anyone else have better results with different kernels? I tried lean kernel and Franco, and none of them seemed fast enough. BTW, I don't overclock, and min voltage is 350, with 350 at screen off. I am by no means a newbie. I always wipe data, kill notifications, 1 widget, black background and monitor processes.

Still, I don't have stone to throw at xenon. If you like this ROM, please make it a point to mention that you are using Xenon on other xda forums. I really feel this ROM doesn't get its fair share of notoriety. All I hear about is Vicious, BAMF, cm10?, vanilla. Am I missing one?

Sorry for the log post,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
I've only had v7 on for an hour (if?), so I can't judge battery life of this version. But with v6 and the stock kernel from the OP, I've been getting a lot better battery life than what you're reporting.... maybe the kernels you're trying?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hogowner:
Quick question....

just installed so far GREAT...one thing...

if I talk to my google search.....and ask the temperature...it gives it to me in celcious..not fahrenheit....how do I change that?

It is 75 degrees it is speaking 24 degrees :)

also...where do I find the notifications and ringtones where I can shut off one...and leave the other on? I thought is said in the update you have different sound settings??

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amessina:
Open Google now and configure the temperature card. Mine is set to Fahrenheit and it works properly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
A few more observations -

1) wonderful ROM... thx again - love it!

2) I've been using since v6 was released, and have been running v7 since released. With v6 never had a spontaneous reboot, but I have with v7 -- just twice so far. Possible perhaps that it was because of dirty flash? I'll wait and see. If I see a pattern, I'll share that back here. For now - rare enough so that it's not worth wiping and reflashing yet, especially as I may wind up doing this for v8 down the road... :)

3) Nice having built ins like the toggles. I had gotten to like Notification Toggle though, and being able to insert app icons and custom shortcuts into the toggles... So I'm trying this now with the built in toggles all deactivated (thank you, btw - nice that the toggle row disappears when all toggles deactivated) and Notification Toggle installed with priority set to 5 (so it stays up top). Looks good for now - will see how this works out.If anyone is aware of a reason to NOT to this (i.e., excessive state monitoring of toggles / battery draw, etc? pure speculation / guesswork here), please share.

4) Have I said lately that I love this ROM? Between this, addition of my Apex Pro license and Beautiful Widgets, this is fantastic. Thx!

EDIT: one thing that will be weird if I keep Notification Toggle installed -- it too has an extra Volume menu much like the one built into the ROM. Can't tell yet if they conflict, compete, etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] njkid32:
Hey everyone I'm hoping for a little help:) I just flashed this rom and for some reason it wont go past the boot screen. It just sits there frozen. Am I missing something or am I just doing it wrong lol. Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xavier86:
404 not found.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SoCalSpecialist:
ur missing something..i would wipe EVERYTHING a couple of times then flash. see how that goes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] njkid32:
Unfortunately I've tried that several times. Now for some reason I lost root. I used the Toolkit to root and unlock the bootloader. Everything seemed fine so I flashed this rom (also tried a few others) and cant get past the bootscreen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
Any mirrors.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evophonehome:
Sounds like root didn't take if you have tried other roms and it does the same thing! What procedure are you using to download and flash roms?? Have any other custom roms worked on your phone before??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] njkid32:
I was using the toolkit to unlock and root. I did verify the root took which is why I tried to flash a rom. I just got this phone so this is the first time I'm flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] friguy3:
Eh...I wanted to try this rom out and goo.im is down (and maybe for a while), anyone able to put up a mirror?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Romparoo:
Ya, I was trying to download as well with no such luck. I'm still on the July 15th version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] combattalon2:
Can anyone verify ringer & notification volumes are unlinked in the v7? I dirty flashed over v5 and they are still linked.

Thanks

Took down Dbox mirror for v7. v8 on OP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Admiral2145:
Is it me or does temple run force close on this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iceandfire:
Uninstall it and reinstall it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kxs783kms:
Did you install the Jellybean bootloader first? It helps with boot times they say. You may think you're stuck at the boot screen, but you're not letting it sit long enough to boot up. Just a possibility.

I am also getting random reboots while screen is off. I did a clean install twice and its still happening
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeroxg4:
Anyone have an MD5 since goo seems to be down?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
extended Volume controls time out...

I don't remember this happening with v6 -- might have, and maybe I didn't notice. I'm on v8 now. When I use the volume control, I see the menu option off to the right and tapping it brings up the 4 slider menu to adjust volumes for phone, speaker, notifications and alarms. However it times out and disappears in a couple of seconds. Ideally, a popup like this should stay until I dismiss it, e.g., via the back button. I *think* it used to work that way...but maybe I'm mixing this up with another app that works this way. Anyway - please consider this as either the normal behavior, or an option -- it's a bit difficult to jump in and adjust the individual sliders when the menu disappears so quickly.

thx!

EDIT: btw - lest anyone think otherwise - I love this ROM - daily driver, silky smooth, good battery, good features, evolving fast, great support - thx!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hEaTLoE:
Thanks for the mirror!

Is anyone having issues with GPS on v8? Can't seem to get a lock anymore, but had no issue on all the previous XenonHD versions I've been on.

Edit: Removed Maps/Nav, rebooted and then reinstalled. Seems fine now, woo!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
No GPS issues with v8. As a matter of fact, it's pretty incredible: I'm sitting in my living room as I type this, with the nearest door to the outside (french door - closed) about 15ft away. Just brought up Google Maps, and can see that I've got a perfect lock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SeXyStEpH87:
Can't wait to flash :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:

Every time I try to update I lose my Google or gmail account I even flashed gapps and still nothing I've fully wiped and everything and it doesn't help any suggestions?

This was lost with custom nav bar. I wouldn't expect it back very soon, as I believe devs are focusing on speed and create improvements. Hope that helps

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaze one:
Thanks for the update. Was wondering why I kept getting random reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
I would think that the down arrow would be an improvement. Isn't it just a .PNG and an XML edit? This is honestly the only thing that I can find wrong with this awesome ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
Have you tried going into the basic Android setup menu and taking a look at Accounts and Sync? As I recall, I had to do that a couple of times: re-add my existing Google / Gmail account, after which everything worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SeXyStEpH87:
Yes there is no option for gmail at all for me to sync
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaze one:
Did you try flashing gapps again? Not sure why it's acting up, I've had no problems at all. Wish I could help you more. Maybe uninstall the gmail app and reinstall from the play store.

BTW... don't know if it's my imagination, but battery life seems even better since I flashed v8. Was only outside 3 or 4 hours today, but had bluetooth going then, and have had WiFi on most of the day, along with the 3G and 4G radios I'm on VzW). Lots of texting, received and sent dozens of emails (GMail and Exchange Server) including many attachments in the half MB range (PowerPoints decks, PDFs, etc). Not many calls -- maybe a dozen short ones? Made, updated, sent and received about a dozen Exchange calendar appointments. Checked Play Store and applied a couple of updates.

With that all said - it seems that standby time is really good. I'm at 36% charge after 11.5 hours on battery. Brightness set to "auto", all default CPU and GPU settings - no tweaks. Sync on all my accounts is active -- push for GMail and Exchange, everything else pretty frequent (hourly I believe on most), including checking weather.

I'm using a VzW GNex with the 2100 mah OEM extended battery. Will try to attach screen shots here.

Also - v8 has been running silky smooth without a hiccup since I installed the moment it was released... most excellent! :good:

BTW: this was with 1 hour and 47 minutes of screen time...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maurlife:
I've been having different problems with the 7/29/2012 gapps package - crashes in the googleplay music, movies, and magazine services. I had not done a factory reset before the update, but I did wipe dalvik and cache partitions, then separately flashed gapps.

I tried re-downloading and flashing the same 7/29/2012 gapps package, with the same results. I was also having trouble with xda premium.

Finally decided to try flashing the 7/15/2012 kejar gapps. Now everything seems to be working well, including xda premium.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
Did you mean the 7/26 GApps package in the post #2 in this thread? That's the one I flashed right after v7 and then v8 -- working beautifully. No hiccups at all. I've been using the regular (non-premium) XDA app -- works just fine with v6, v7 and v8 of XenonHD (and possibly more - but that's when jumped on board).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):

Rejiggering the navbar customization made a huge difference for me. Loving the ROM overall now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Romparoo:
V8 is great! I really love the rom tweek's that can be done, very cool and very good stuff.

I decided to update from the July 15th because for some reason this morning all of my "on device" music was deleted and had to be re-downloaded...so made sense to update my rom...glad I did!

My account just finished restoring and now am just setting my phone back up to how I like it. I hope it continues to run smoothly.

Thanks again, great work!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Every once in a while I lose my data connection, and nothing I do (including toggling LTE on and off, toggling data on and off, and toggling airplane mode on and off) except rebooting the phone fixes it.

Does Verizon Login app actually start up properly?

There's an APK that's been shared around a bit that reinstalls a working copy of Verizon Login. Worked for me. You can find it on another site. The Link to the relevant post is here.

Last time I looked, the Verizon Login Fix app is in the dropbox listed in the post. Be sure to thank the guy who posted it and is sharing it via dropbox (assuming, of course, it works for you).

I tried dirty and had problems. Didn't occur to me to clear the cache afterwards.

I also did not get Busybox when I installed, which was odd.

Finally, I have not found the Britney's widget listed in the change log.

All that said, love e release. The lock screen targets are awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
I'm guessing the "Britney's widget" is auto-correct's interpretation of "brightness"...?

Assuming that's what you mean....the brightness slider is a feature of the notification toggles that come built into the package. Go into Settings / ROM Settings / Brightness Location. Choose "on top" or "on the bottom". Then, when you pull down the notification shade and see the toggles, you'll also see the brightness slider above or below the toggles, per your selection.

EDIT: no need for an activated toggle in order to show brightness slider
