[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnzm:
just a quick question, if anyone knows the answer

when we get "OUR" OTA, what will make this rom any different from the original OTA?

just curious because from my viewpoint this is a basically 100% stock rom.

also, anyone getting secure elements errors anymore? i assumed it was from flashing new rom on top of old rom with wallet activated, but i have not read much about anyone getting it recently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
New Orleans didn't get much damage. No significant flooding. Mostly minor wind damage. Lots of closed roads because of down'd trees and flooded underpasses. But all that has been taken care of. I went 7 days without power though, and when it finally came back on, AC wasn't working. :( But like I said, a lot of people got it a lot worse, so I don't want to complain.

I'm sure glad that I had a nice stable fully-functional ROM that I could rely on even in an emergency situation. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shabbypenguin:
i have never heard of a galaxy nexus getting it

as soon as someone gets the prompt and gets the update someone can update, run something like my root script and then dump the partitions for everyone. we can grab teh binary blobs for it and then update all the builds :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
This is my first ROM I've ever used, and I must say it's basically perfect, thanks so much for your work. When all those sexy blobs do get posted and the builds are updated, will a wipe be required before flashing, or will a simple flash work for an update as minor (to the extent of my knowledge) as this?

Thanks again, sorry for the nub question.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shabbypenguin:
just a fresh flash :) shouldnt need a wipe
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:

I'm still running the older version of MS3. Do I need to do a full wipe? Or can I flash dirty?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tommy0823:
Shabby has a new radio available in his sticky. Idk if its placebo or not, but I'm glad I flashed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
Actually, I have another hopefully final question. I currently am running the ROM from the r4test2.zip, but I got that on 8/24, and it did not have Shabby's fixed kernel in it. I have since flashed leankernel 4.3 to fix the compass/gps issue. Is the new r4test2 the thing that was updated on 9/3? I see only one r4test2 in the changelog, so that's why I'm confused.

So basically, should I flash the new r4test2, then the ROM with the new binaries when it's released, or will a straight flash from my 8/24 r4test2 be fine?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PROTOCOL:
If your running r4test2 you can just update. I will be releasing an updated official release tonight.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
Okay thanks. I just noticed that the thread's date was now 9/3, and saw that the new file was also called r4test2.zip, and got crazy confused. Now just have to play the old waiting game I guess.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hct01:
after a few days of giving the new rom a try i ran into a problem. I don't know if its the kernel or the rom itself but my phone would refuse to charge, only after a few tries of plugin it in and out back and fourth i would get it to start charging and then when i would unplug it the phone still said it was charging, the computer would not even recognize the phone anymore. I tried using different cables, different computers and different wall plugs, different batteries and nothing worked. I flashed new roms and even re flashed this rom from scratch and nothing would fix it. I called sprint support to have the phone repaired thinking the mini USB port was broken, then I returned to stock and re locked the boot-loader tonight to get it ready to be replaced tomorrow and its charging fine now. makes it seem like its a rom or kernel problem.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
(These might be dumb questions, but I'm trying to learn)

Will the new update still be compiled from AOSP source but have the new Sprint JB binaries included? Or is the new update a "port" (not sure if that's the right word) or modification of the official Sprint ROM?

Also the fixes that you guys applied to the previous versions (e.g. mod to kernel to fix compass, changes to gps config file to get faster lock, etc) still be included? Or are they not needed anymore because the new Sprint binaries will take care of those bugs?

Finally, I read something in another forum about the ICS bootloader being different than the JB bootloader. I assume this update will have the JB bootloader now, correct? Does it even matter?

Like I said, sorry if any of these are dumb questions. I'm still a noob, and I really want to understand how this stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
None are dumb and you pretty much understand them already. Aosp with binaries, No need for bug fixes on this one, boot loader might matter I would upgrade it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigmoneygrip23:
How would one go about updating their bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] land2634:
I was just thinking this. I'm pretty sure it can be flashed using that GNex toolkit, but I'm wondering if it's going to wipe anything or leave my bootloader locked. I guess just curious as to whether it will cause any issues with my current setup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
Stock ICS bootloader has been working fine for me on RUJ up to this point, so I don't see why the new binaries would make it any different. It couldn't hurt though I suppose.

Building aosp for the gnex? New vendor files up

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
Ok, I finally flashed the latest version of r4test2 from the OP. I dirty flashed it over the older version of r4test2 from late August. Here's a few observations. Although this may all be moot with the new stock update coming. But just in case it's useful, I wanted to provide feedback.

The PicoTTS libraries are still there. I don't know if they are supposed to be or not, but I saw that they were causing problems for Zeinzu and apparently they aren't being used, right?

The other search app ("Search") is there and is hijacking the homescreen search bar. After I disabled it, the homescreen search bar goes to Google Now (like it's supposed to I assume).

Lean Kernel 180 is still included in the ROM. It's actually working really well so far, but I know this is intended to be fully stock, so it need to be replaced by the stock kernel. Edit: And it might get you in trouble with the GPL police. :)

Other than those minor things, this ROM is great. Thanks again to Dreams, Shabby, Protocol and everyone else who may have contributed. You guys rock and have made things really easy for a noob like me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
The stock kernel never played along that well with AreYouJellin' for me, so I'm actually pretty happy they added the fixed kernel again, one less step to go through. Though I don't think I'll be dirty flashing this over the old r4test2 what with the new update being finished tonight hopefully.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
Well, this latest update includes an OTA Updater so you could get the new one OTA without needing to flash at all.

Edit: but I agree that this one seems much smoother. I assume it's because of lean kernel. This is actually my first experience with a non-stock kernel, and it's motivating me to start flashing kernels (after I learn how to do that).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
Oh damn, I didn't realize that. Guess I'm flashing it right now then, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
Stock kernel to be in update lean was a accident but good it opened some of you up to using aftermarket ones
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x_Mischka_x:
Yeah, lean kernel is really nice. If you really like it I'd recommend flashing the new 4.3.0 as it seems to run a bit better for me. You just download the .zip to root directory and flash it like anything else in CWM/TWRP and you're good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
Thanks. I guess I understand how to flash a kernel, but I don't really understand how to "manage" a kernel. Like how to pick one, select the right options, choose CPU clocking, etc. Not understanding that has kept me from trying a custom kernel. But this has shown me that you don't really need to do anything except flash a kernel to see a benefit.

Im having the same issue on this rom as I am all non stock roms. If Im connected to 4g then connect to wifi the phone wont drop the mobile network connection.

I attached a logcat. Hope that helps figure what is causing it.
