NOW it's official! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neoKushan:
Downloloading now! I've been a very happy AOKP user but I've been dying to try out CM9, I just wanted to wait until they were officially "Stable" (even though I know the nightlies have been solid).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Ah nice. Good to see it finally made it to RC status. JellyBean is just around the corner now though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android01:
Just Voided my warranty with this. Now my refrigerator is 10 degrees warmer inside and all my ice cream just melted. Anyone else having this issue? Otherwise ROM is great!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fuske:
Just made the switch tot CM9. Came from AOKP.

Always used CM on my N1. But when I got my GN I saw that AOKP was much more popular. But now with CM9 I'm just as happy as the good old N1 time.

(I really hated the unicorn stuff on AOKP..little bit immature if you ask me)

I didnt notice much speed or battery life differences. Will post my opinion later this week.

Thnx Cyanogen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Unsure why OP has outdated gapps (dated 03/17)

http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip here are the latest gapps (04/29). And before anyone asks, yes I flashed RC1 with this gapps (04/29) and works fine.

Great release! Looking forward to additional CM9 contributions being made. Switched from AOKP as well, so far so good... only feature I really miss is resizing the navigation bar.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fuske:
Did the same...

I think they mentioned the old one because they have removed stuff in the latest gapps packages.?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Changelog is right here: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps#Ice_Cream_Sandwich_.28Android_4.0.x.29

Didn't really remove anything.. they just simply updated the gapps with newer versions of Google Apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andQlimax:
Nice!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neoKushan:
Is that the latest GAAPs? I seem to have a load dated April 29th here.

EDIT: Sorry, I'll learn to read the thread lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Ya but are all the features/options found in AOKP are in the CM9? For example, weather on lockscreen, different choices for status bar drop down toggles etc? Last time I tried CM9 I found it stock and not to my liking. I like customizations like AOKP has.

I found out later that the unicorn was considered cool by others so it didn't bother me as much and once I installed franco kernel, I typically replaced the boot animation with franco's...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petarsson:
nice, give it a try...

and yeah, the rainbow unicorn is definitely uncool and the biggest problem of aokp!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UNDFTD:
Coming from nightlys, should we wipe everything then flash or can we flash over the last nightly? Thanks in advanced
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stereoprologic:
I'll give this a go. I'm not flashing often enough anyways :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reudyfam:
Flashed over (wiped cache & dalvik) a few hours ago, no issues so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neoKushan:
You can always flash a different boot screen, it takes all of a second to do and if you use TWRP you can just chain the boot screen. I didn't care much for the unicorn, but I dont't think much of CID either.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say that officially you should wipe and start afresh, but feel free to just flash over the top - just don't expect much support if you run into issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fuske:
Weather on lockscreen is also in CM9..

About the toggles. I really liked the AOKP ones, more ICS like. But... They take up all lot of space. You can simply press to hide but I like them to be there quickly..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YashBhatt:
Downloading now.....

Finally its offical
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Weather on lockscreen is there. Status bar drop downs.. there. Lock screen customizations, etc.

Many of the features from AOKP are in CM9 (with the recent versions of AOKP they're actually implementing features FROM CM9 into their ROM).

Such as their kernel, GNParts, AOKPStats, and a bunch of other features.

Try the ROM, just make a nandroid backup beforehand.. if you don't like it. Swap back. Like I said, only feature I REALLY miss is resizing the navigation bar to a smaller size.

I liked AOKP but I had a large number of problems with the ROM, my main issue was that it was being bloated with more and more unnecessary features.

AOKPtips.apk, swagpapers, etc.... basically unnecessary things like that. They all add up and build up to become a very bloated ROM. Not to mention again, they've started to add features from CM9 into their ROM which made it even worse. CM9 is more simplistic but still very customizable to use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
I never flashed a CM9 nightly and got porn on it..... maybe it was on your device PRIOR to flashing it due to either:

A) Someone screwing around with you and put it on your phone while you weren't around.

B) Malicious app (mainly if you get apks/apps from third party markets)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webmaster:
I bought it brand new directly from Google, and I use the gallery every day and never once saw that image until I flashed CM9 earlier today. I just dont know what to make of it. Would you suggest I continue to use this build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
do whatever you think is best but i assure you that it did not come from cyanogenmod 9. it is simply illogical for the cm team to include explicit content in their rom. you're the first one to bring this up, so it has to be coming from your end not the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webmaster:
I appreciate your help. I will probably re-download the CM ROM from their site and start all over. You are correct that they would not put porn in there, and I realize how crazy this seems. However I can assure you I have never once browsed porn on my phone (not that there is anything wrong with that!) so this is truly mind boggling...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
I understand where you're coming from. It could of been from one of your apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandmanz:
There is no stable ROM yet on the website for Maguro.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peewster:
Malicious website ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Hey guys.

Just grabbed RC1, coming from AOKP. Very excited. Heard a great many things about CM.

Can I use Franco M4 or Glados?

I'm more interested in using the kernel that comes with CM9. How is it on battery etc?

Can I just use the lastest Gapps from anywhere? The 20120429? AOKP B38 uses these. Are they rom specific or I can use the latest on any rom?

Thanks guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] farfromovin:
The latest gapps (the only different package is if you use a miui rom) will work along with any ICS kernel. Just don't go reporting bugs in here if you aren't using the CM9 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webmaster:
Sorry I gave the wrong link. I got it from the Release Candidate section.

http://get.cm/?type=RC

In either case I downloaded it again, checked the MD5 sum (all good), and flashed it. Seems to be fine now but I still wish I knew what caused that porn issue before. I agree with the possibility of a malicious app, but keep in mind it happened right after a fresh wipe/ fresh flash so there was NOTHING else installed other than the ROM...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gingerc:
Hey all,

Hopefully this is the right thread for this question as its about nightlies, but also the SIII add on:

Is it ok for me to flash a new nightly over the top of my existing (maguro from 20th June 2012) rom if I am using the SIII addon? And if so is there a particular thread/guide I should be using to do this given I now have the addon?

Also just wanted to mention that the SIII addon (touchwiz, etc) is awesome on my Nexus!

Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Flash away. Any part of the S3 add on that lives in /system will be wiped out however, so you'll either have to reflash it (no idea if its been updated itself to be compatible) or do a wipe to obliterate any parts that don't live in /system.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Hey guys,

Is it possible that I'm experiencing problems with playing mp4 files in Poweramp player?

I never had this issue before, not on the stock Galaxy Nexus, not on AOKP. This is the first time I encountered this problem.

It plays for around 5 seconds, then just skips to the next track and does the same thing. The file is a podcast from iTunes (Hard With Style).

Edit: correction, m4a files. So not mp4 (as far as I know)

Unfortunately, since music is a big part of my life this could force me to stop using CM9.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colocynth:
Just try it after backing up.

Fyi, I use gnex. I flashed lastest nightly over rc1. Dirty flashing. Just wipe dalvik cache.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monsterduc1000:
Is anyone else getting very high battery usage from the stock Messaging app and a third party sms app (if you are using one) since flashing RC1? Both this and Go SMS have really drained my battery while the phone is in standby for long periods of time. I have now disabled the stock messaging app and will let Go SMS handle everything to see if it was the messaging app and its interactions with Go SMS that are the issue.

Also, what is the best set-up under the Performance setting? I have tried many different combinations with some being better for gaming but bad for the battery and vice versa. I have generally found that leaving all settings stock gives the best overall results, but I was wondering if anyone has some tips.

Lastly, I still get random reboots quite often when overclocking to 1200. Is this a common thing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KalimochoAz:
Did you made a clean install?

Reboots? What kernel are you using?

1200 is not overclocking on Galaxy nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monsterduc1000:
No clean install, stock kernel and 1200 on the nexus s.

What I always do is wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format system, format boot and I have never had any issues. I then flash the new rom and I have always had good results doing it this way without having to wipe data.

I have never had this issue before without a clean install.

Also, I am also finding the text to speech is not working either.

I will try a clean install, but it sucks having to go through all the re-installing...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lush78:
Thinking about testing out this CM9... been using AOKP for a long time now... been curious about CM9... should i try this version, or the latest nightly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rgeerolf:
The RC1 is limited in features but is very stable. I didn't had a single fc since day1. Latest nightlies are also pretty stable I guess but have more cm features I guess. I just use this RC1 because I'm sure I will have no problems .. Also I think battery live is better in CM9 compared to AOPK
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
Well 1st you don't have the right phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
The latest nightly is always a "safe" bet, many things have been merged since the code was frozen for RC1 and it ultimately dropped; can't recall the date off hand but code was frozen for RC ~ mid June.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] triStateMindgate:
I want to say the 14th

But yes I agree, pretty much any Nightly is a daily driver, CM has been pretty much flawless for me for months now...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lush78:
For anyone that's interested in replacing their H icon for signal in status bar with a 4G icon, here is a flashable zip... Available in blu and grey... CM9 RC1 Galaxy Nexus GSM only...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gr8techie:
Excellent! I wanted to try CM9 only after they said it was safe (when status is RC and above).

I tried so many ROMs and in the end decided to stick to AOKP which is way better coupled with Franco Kernel.

Will try this and get back if anything!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Azdian:
need a MOD to make the navbar smaller .. that would make it almost perfect
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Still very much bummed about this question. I'm currently waiting on titanium backup to get my payment through, so I can do a backup and flash Jelly Belly without having to re-install all my apps. I'll be back at CM as soon as m4a is supported probably though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monsterduc1000:
Whoops! Sorry about that. :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
Is there a CM9 theme that has the tool bar like in the old days of froyo - I dearly miss that.

Ta
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
If you mean the wifi, bluetooth, 3G toggles at the top of the notification drawer, yes, this one has that. Just go to Settings > System > Notificationdrawer. There make sure "Show Powerwidget" is checked. For your personal buttons, hit widgetbuttons and select from there on. To rearrange them select the option below that, Order of widgetbuttons

(Translated from Dutch)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
No I meant the whole bar that used to be white before GB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
In that case, I don't have a clue what you mean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
It's not difficult it looks like...

Where can I get that from & which rom can I use it on my Galaxy Nexus?

Ta
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
I recall a CM7 Theme Chooser theme like that, but haven't seen one for CM9.

Might have some luck here: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=527
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Still wondering, is the .m4a file not supported in this ROM? I never had problems with this kind of file before, but now it only plays the first few seconds, then skips to the next song.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Molitro:
I've always used m4a for my music, never had any problems. I use PowerAmp, but I think it used the system scan. I'm not sure though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
How do you mean you think it used the system scan if I may ask?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Molitro:
I'm saying that at least back in the day poweramp didn't itself scan for media files and made a "list" just for itself, but it used the system's scan, so if poweramp sees the files, any other player should too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hp13:
RC1 works fine. No issues. Loving the stability
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Can anyone tell me if google voice from the call log works in RC1?

Will I be able to add the power button and menu buttons in the nav bar? Also is volume wake here too?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Power button, no. Everything else yes.

You can add a sleep toggle to the notification drawer however to take the place of the menu button.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Allright, so I emailed the PowerAmp guys about .m4a files not playing in this ROM. Their wonderful response:

PREVIOUS POST ON SUBJECT BELOW

*********ClicketyClack*********

Well that helped -.-'

Now I was wondering, is it possible it has something to do with my kernel?

Also, my big ass nooby question here: Does this ROM come with an own kernel? (can't imagine really..)

So again the big, important question (for me at least..):

Does anyone around here have problems playing .m4a files?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gene_Bailey:
To answer one of your questions yes this ROM comes with its own custom kernel.. and for what its worth they don't support other devs kernels either :-\
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andQlimax:
Every rom has its own kernel!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Yeah I just figured that one out myself as wel haha, but still thanks for telling me!

UPDAAAATEE!

You guys must be hating me right now for asking so many questions..

So I reflashed the CM9 ROM, left the stock kernel on there for a while. But nope, .m4a files still don't play. Am I really the only one experiencing this nasty bug?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrzzheng:
Have you verified if the same file plays on another device? Also maybe try aokp b40.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Jup, I used AOKP before this one, but for some reason I like this ROM better. So if it's possible I'd like to play my music ánd keep this ROM haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webmaster:
So this ROM comes with Apollo, which I assume is a media player of some sort. However it does not play .mp3 or .wav files that come as attachments in gmail from my voicemail provider. Is there any way to enable this, or do I need to download something else? With the stock ROM all I needed to do was select the attachment and the file would automatically play, however Apollo does not do this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saftschubse:
I can't change the contacts ringtone (not the standard one but the one for every single contact)! Everytime I change it, it will be set back to the default ringtone immediately...

Anyone else with this issue?

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andQlimax:
download google music from play store and see if it play..maybe a problem wit apollo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saftschubse:
OK. Fixed it. Just cleared the data from the contacts repository and synced my contacts back to phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josip-k:
when i try to download something on the google play store i get error 403..how to fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Well poweramp itself works fine for me, but it just doesn't play .m4a files properly at the moment. Kinda sucks.

Just tried downloading google music, but it wouldn't download in my country.

I tried ES Music (From ES File Explorer) and that has the same issue. Is it possible this is happening because I turned apollo off?

-------EDIT-------

So I just turned Apollo on again, tried playing the file in there. (Was a hell to even find the file, really awful music player). For some weird reason, in Apollo, the file does play :S. If anybody has a suggestion, like completely removing Apollo, I'm more then happy to try it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enryfox:
Try googling around and you can find the play music apk... then you can install it on you phone and use it as a local player.

wonder why google is so restrictive: if play music store is not available in my country why can't i use play music for my local collection ?

it's a very nice player !

bye
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Thanks, forgot about that. But how can this help me, as I'm trying to play the files in Poweramp?

--------EDIT--------

I just tested with Google Play Music, and the file played fine. And I have to say, for a music player on android, it looks pretty good. Pretty intuitive as well. Only problem: I still prefer Poweramp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magick86:
If you use TitaniumBackup you can now link the Google Music App to the market even if you're in the US (so you can get the updates). Also use "MarketAccess" to get additional access into the play store (so you don't have to find the APK next time).

If you have a google music account it will also sync up all of your songs and you can create offline playlists (works very well for me because I always hated syncing playlists). You might need an IP mask/VPN to do sign up though.

I think i tried poweramp, but I didn't think it could contend with the simplicity of the google music option for me. Hopefully you find what you like!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Hey guys.

Just came from AOKP. M6 I was expecting to be a little more stable. But anyway, AOKP is awesome, and most of it is because its built from this. :D

Great work guys!! Awesomely smooth and stable, so far. Haha.

Anyway, was just wondering, I can't get the flash light to not be greayed out? I can't select it for some reason.

I have some really laggy keyboard issues as well. Any way I can fix it?

And on the power menu, is there a way to edit it? Looking for the nav bar menu, flashlight toggle also.

Thanks guys. Just thought I'd ask. :)

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATMOSF3AR:
AWESOME :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
Flashlight toggle doesn't work yet. All other implementations of it includes a dirty hack which CM9 team won't do (have to open camera in background to get the flashlight to turn on).

If you still want it you have to use a third party app.

Swiftkey'ed on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timmiej93:
Well the problem kinda is that I only tried Google Play Music because it was suggested here, to find out if my .m4a files would play there, since they wouldn't in Poweramp. But I definitely prefer Poweramp, I love a lot of functions, even though I don't use a lot of them.

So again, if anybody has a suggestion for me how I can get my .m4a files playing in Poweramp, please let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcurtis369:
AOKP isn't based on this it is based on the original source :D

Edit: yes it has added some cm9 features but at the end of the day it all started by being built from the google source not from cm9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
Oh ok. I've been informed incorrectly.

Well they did a good job then of copying almost every feature haha. Like, identical features. Weird.

Anyone get laggy keyboard action?

Have to say this is so rock solid. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Ummm....
