I appreciate that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
Mmuzzy, anything cooking this weekend?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
Agreed. This is the only rom I make backups of so when I'm done being a rom swinger, I know I can always come back to my safe, reliable home.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
We're doing some experimentation to see how some changes domino effect against elements of the ROM. I'm finally feeling up to it... ish. This flu, for lack of a better description, has kicked my butt this week.

I appreciate that. I don't take offense when I see familiar usernames in other threads. Crackflashers unite. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
Thank god TWRP makes restoring simple and efficient. I saw nexus evolution and said "oooh".... Flashed... Played overnight... restored 10 minutes ago...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Starting to feel human again. Let the experimentation commence. Happy Saturday everyone. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
Thanks for the advice. I pulled up file explorer and went digging. Sure enough the apk was there. I couldn't find any sort of Genie App or process anywhere else so I could disable whatever the hell it was doing. By the time my extended battery needed to be charged, the process racked up over 20 minutes of time on. I backed it up and deleted it considering I wasn't making use of the widget which appears to be missing from my phone altogether. No noticeable changes from the deletion yet, but I'm sure my battery will like appreciate the additional undisturbed sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcampbell:
Something else is wrong, or interacting badly, I think. 40% drain in 1/2 hour is not being caused solely by seeder.

My trickster mod just auto updated, and now won't run saying it needs a "funcional version" of busybox... which of course we have.

Anyone else notice this or know what the issue might be?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
Same here. I installed busybox to xbin and all is well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Robin M:
No "/sdcard/0/ problem with this ROM.

MMuzzy,

How come we (THANKFULLY) do not seem to be experiencing the "/sdcard/0/" recovery bug with this ROM? Before I flashed this 4.2.1 ROM, I changed from CWM 6.0.1.9 to TWRP 2.3.2.1 on my GN. (I just did it because I wanted to try out TWRP. I didn't know anything about the 4.2.1 SDcard bug at that point in time.) But I see that since the ROM upgrade, everything on the SD card has been moved from "/data/media" to "/data/madia/0/". (Of course the emulated "mounted" SD card looks the same.) But what confused me is that TWRP can find both the nandroid I did BEFORE the ROM upgrade and those I did AFTER.

OTOH, I also upgraded my Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi-only to CM 10.1 (also JB 4.2.1). But on that device I can no longer see my orginal files on the SD card with CWM recovery because they were also moved to the "0" folder and recovery cannot find them. Nor can I get to them with a USB connection from my laptop. I've got a real mess to straighten out there (although, now that I somewhat understand what happened, I have some ideas about how to fix it).

SO.... I'm certainly not complaining to you. This ROM handled everything just right when upgrading android to the new multi-user JB 4.2environment. What I want to know is... How did you do it so that TWRP works, and would there have been a problem if I had been on an older version of CWM recovery when I flashed the upgrade?

Robin M

PS... You, my friend, are amazing in my book. I'm so glad I found this ROM for my GN. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgabaree:
12/30 rom. Mms is not sending/receiving with stock app or Handcent. Tried searching forums, but no luck. Anyone else else experiencing this and/or have a fix? Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Thank you. I appreciate the kind words but I give credit to TWRP more than anything. They updated the recovery to handle the new filesystem more correctly, it was nothing I did. I guess it was just lucky timing on my part. ;)

Between Android devices or between iPhone device and Gnex?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcampbell:
Thanks, this worked.

Next issue.... Trickster won't "keep" my max CPU speed at anything but 1.2Mhz. I set it (to 1.4 or 1.6Mhz), and hit the check box, and set on boot, but every boot it goes back to 1.2Mhz. Thoughts?

Other settings like scheduler, color, etc. it keeps fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgabaree:
Concerning mms not working.... So far between Gnex and iPhone. Number is 7279922969 if you want to help test and send an mms Gnex to gnex. No one else in my list available right now.

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------

Seems to be working now... At least between Gnex and iPhone... I just unistalled Handcent and the stock app works fine now. Very strange. Sucks as I like Handcent. :(

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewlax120:
i installed the cm10.1 mms on the french vanilla rom and its great. try a cm10.1 mms apk and install system rw-r-r. it has a few more features then the stock android messenger if thats what you're looking for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
Do you have "set on boot" and "frequency lock" selected?

Sorry. Getting off topic here...haven't had a chance to update from the 12/22 Rom yet, but she's running beautifully with tiny's kernel. Had some crappy battery life in poor signal rural Connecticut and new jersey on holiday last week, but otherwise all is great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wartickler:
There won't be any problem with deleting it. There are a handful of apks I always delete when I reflash mmuzzy ROM:

The newest versions of both CWM and TWRP are now set to address the /0 folder issue. Likely you weren't using one of those with your 10.1 therefore you experienced the dreaded misbehavior of the new multiuser Android installation experience. FYI, /0 is user number zero's folder.

Do you have a script or something to do all the removals? I like the idea of removing some of these but it looks cumbersome on its face.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
Takes 5-10 seconds in root explorer ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnco1972:
It looks like you and I are on the same page. I keep email and calculator because I use them. I'm not sure what Galaxy4 and genie widget and exchange are, so I have yet to remove them. I also remove music. Other than those few, our delete lists are almost identical.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcampbell:
Yes, and no. But I can't do freq-lock with the free version, although that does sound like the issue. Thanks!

Although, to be fair, I forget about re-setting it about 70% of the time since the phone runs so well even @ a max 1.2Mhz, so it's more a petty nuisance than an actual issue. =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Has anyone experienced problems when doing a clean flash of this ROM? For the past few updates I have tried doing clean flashes since I've been doing a lot of dirty flashing, so I figured it was time. Anyway when I do clean flashes I always run into a problem. One time it was titanium back up freezing at 99% when restoring apps and system data. The last time I no longer had the softkeys or notification bar? That one may be a mod conflict though since I flashed circle battery with zenyth keys mod that's listed on here. Anyone else having any kinda of issues or am I doing something wrong? Btw I used a CWM in recovery to wipe the cache and data the first time and then used the mike's super wipe (the one listed on the first post).

Also does anyone else have a problem with the GPS taking a very long time to be found when trying to use Google navigation?

Sorry for all the questions, I've been meaning to ask on here for a while but always forget to until now.

Glad to hear you're doing better Mmuzzy, can't wait for some more updates and features!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slyd0997:
Don't restore system data ever. Try restoring one app at a time and if you can stand it just restore the app and not the data. Better yet let Google restore your apps from the playstore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wartickler:
GPS lock in Navigation will get better after the first couple uses. I suspect it's related to caching map tiles.

Do your installations Windows-style and reboot a couple of times after ROM installation. Also, make sure you are using the right mods for your version of the ROM.

Air or Tiny?

Thoughts on kernels? I'm using Tiny right now and it seems ok. Anyone know of any compelling reasons to try Air?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DertyDOH:
rom is pretty smooth, no major issues for me, but my battery life was terrible, about 1.5 hours of screen time, and my signal was fluctuating from -95 to -109 vs -82 to -95 on 4.1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
Can you provide a little more info? Custom Kernel? Dirty Flash? Anything worthy of note? You can also install an app like BBS or Battery Stats Plus to get a handle on what's draining...

---------- Post added at 04:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

My only compelling reason to not play with custom kernels is there have been several posts that are issues arising from custom kernels not playing nice... GPS, WiFi, Battery and/or reboots... I've heard great things about Tiny's Kernel, but nothing about Air... Good Luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wartickler:
Agreed. I have no script but when using Root Explorer you can do multi-select which lets you go down the list in system/app and select the ones you want to delete. Then hit delete at the bottom and they all go. Deleting the APKs makes them 'uninstall' but don't forget to set the partition to R/W before you try. Also, DON'T forget to uninstall any updates to any of the apps you're deleting FIRST. Otherwise it leaves the updates in your installed apps list and then you try to uninstall them and they fail.

Galaxy4 is a live wallpaper. Genie is the built-in news and weather widget. Exchange is the name of the server part of Microsoft's Outlook email. The APK is so that you can use your device on an enterprise email system based on Microsoft Exchange.

I use another calculator because this one doesn't have the percent symbol and I'm too lazy to relearn the math to do without it and I don't use any other email besides gmail.

How can you live without the high-quality experience of the music app?! That's one of the only apps that makes the lack of SD card make any sense. I'm still holding out for something amazing to happen with that app. I'm hoping that High, Holy Goog will reward my patience...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sporkette:
I've tried all the custom kernels and tried dirty flashing. I've discovered that with a clean flash and the stock kernel with this ROM I get the best battery life and best experience this phone has ever had. Well... Trinity had better battery, barely, but wasn't quite stable. SOD and jerky response. Good job Muzzy. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcampbell:
I'm a kernel-holic, so that doesn't bother me too much; obvious issues are... obvious =) So it's a low-friction restore to a previous working config.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Thanks for the tips. I did use the right mod for my version. Oh well. I'll try again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnco1972:
I don't like headphones. There are computers to stream music from everywhere, anyway. Also, I've never needed a removable SD card.

Google Search Quitting

Don't know what's happened, but since I installed the Dec 30th ROM, I'm getting a google search has stopped message when I press the microphone in the search bar. I had a similar experience when I tried to respond to a txt mssg. With the txt, the keyboard popped up, but the immediately disappeared. Any thoughts? It was a clean flash with superwipe script.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
GAPPs issue. You just need to update Google Search.

Edit: I'm not sure what to make of the keyboard thing. I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 running CM 10.1 and the keyboard was unusable the other night. That wasn't even my ROM and it happened.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
I think you may need the gapps thing in your signature with blinking lights and a 'look here' judging by the number of these posts. I don't understand not taking updates. It feels like Christmas morning when I see app updates are available. Especially the ones that need a manual update since that means bigger changes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stormyq:
When I flash this theme over the latest version of mmuzzy (clean install, super wipe) the phone boots up but when I slide to unlock it just freezes for a few moments and then returns to the lock screen. I can never get in.

I flash the room first, get it all set up and working then flash the theme.

Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
12-30 isn't compatible with ADB's theme... search the thread for more clarification, but just dirty flash over itself to fix the issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I guess I'll just clump these two together since they're related'ish. I cut some slack about GAPPs questions right now because part of the appeal of the ROM used to be that I helped avoid pain of updates at my expense. So this stuff didn't happen. Velo was going to work on a FAQ and I will understand if life got gets in the way but I think a link to a document of some sort would be helpful. I just either need to delegate that one or take the time myself to do something.

As for the themes breaking... yeah, that was also sort of my fault. I wonder how hard that would be for him to make his theme Theme Manager compatible. Now that I've made two versions of the ROM I sort of feel like I could get away with taking care of the 'Great ROM, if only it had A, B, and C it would be perfect' stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stormyq:
Maybe it's implied or stated somewhere but if not my tiny suggestion would be to edit the original ADB post linked from page 1 to indicate that it's not compatible with the latest ROM. Again, I may have missed it. Happy to wait patiently. Appreciate everything you guys do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
It is, but I know it can be confusing even still. This is in the OP:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
Muzzy,

Please don't apologize for posting twice... especially if that posting is common sense that everyone should be looking at. I'm jumping off to crack flash some stuff... probably be back on your ROM in a day and a half... Either way, I'll try to help answer any questions that come up where I can add value. We all appreciate everything you do.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deadpixell:
So I've had this issue from a build in early December, and just installed the Dec 30 build. About 75% of the time when I click on a contacts information it says "contacts has stopped working" and crashes. It doesn't always do it, but it does more times than not.

Any ideas what could be the cause?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] notstevek:
Thank you sporkette!!

Oblagitory thanks to mmuzzy for the most stable 4.2.1 rom out.

On a side note is TWRP really good? I'm used to CWRM and I'm using the latest touch which fixes the issue for the 4.2 file system, is there any reason I should switch like more options or faster/more efficient backups etc? I personally didn't flash it because of the GUI, looks, well like beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
You haven't said if you've clean wiped or not. If you haven't, I'd do that. If you want to try something else first, you can try stopping sync on your account temporarily, clear app data and cache on Contacts Storage and Google Services Framework. Make sure your contacts are synced onto your account first though just in case.

And I'm sure you know the drill but clean wipe would be the best choice... and make sure that if you're restoring apps/data that you absolutely don't restore system data.

I have seen a lot of complaints about the lack of removable SD card. Clearly, there is a desire for it. I'm just saying that I do not need it. However, I do not store music, movies, etc on my phone either. I can certainly understand the need for additional/changeable storage.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stuckintheskull:
I used CWR on my old droid 2 but as soon as I got my gnex I put TWRP on it and never looked back. So much faster. Just my two cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
What's faster about it? Ever since jumping on the boat I've been using CWM and haven't had any noticeable issues (so long as I've kept it up to date). You say faster, but is there anything else in particular as well that turns you toward TWRP opposed to CWM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I'll throw in my vote for TWRP for things like the keyboard access, built in file manager, and menu targets that don't require you to have the finger tips of a 2 year old.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whozamazinka:
Agreed. I was in the same boat as you AirBoss....I've always loved CWM and didn't see any reason to change. However, I did switch for this ROM, (since mmuzzy and YMCAgameguy both recommended it), and I haven't looked back either. I don't actually know if it is any faster in making backups (seems about the same to me), but I do like the larger buttons. Also, it gives you information like how much battery you have remaining, AND you can stack .zip files. (which I didn't think I'd use at all, but actually do.) And, as mmuzzy stated, the file manager and keyboard are nice. Oh...one other thing I thought of. It seems to remember the last folder you left off on, even from the last time you booted into recovery. With CWM I always had to drill down to the folder where I keep my ROMs and other installs. With TWRP it already drops me in there, even if the last time I was in recovery was 2 weeks ago. I never accidentally installed something with CWM (since they have the "are you sure" screen), but more than once I clicked on something accidentally that I had to back up from. I have yet to do that with the huge buttons of TWRP.

All these things are very minor. Certainly not worth sweating over if you really don't want to make the switch, and CWM is still an excellent recovery. However, all put together, it was enough for me to not feel the need to return to CWM. And flashing the recovery was really easy too. Just install the goo.im app, and let it do all the work.

The one negative that I've found with TWRP (and hopefully someone can point out the flaw in my logic) is that I don't have a one-click way to make a backup. With CWM, I'd just enter the app on my phone, click 'backup ROM', and the phone would enter recovery, back up my rom, and reboot into the phone all by itself. That was pretty sweet. Now I need to reboot into recovery, create a backup, and exit out of recovery. From 1 step to 3. However, even WITH that I still like TWRP better. And maybe someone can tell me how to automate that process with TWRP?

As usual, I've gone on much too long to make my post useful.

"Too long. Did not read!"

Oh well. Hopefully it helps out someone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] runandhide05:
Since you have the option to run a backup from goo app before the flashing I think its a little redundant to have just that option. And from there its a one click backup.

And if you want to just keep a blank zip on your phone and select it then add "backup" to the list if you want a easy one click backup without actually installing anything
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whozamazinka:
So you are saying I can make a backup from the goo app during the process of installing a new rom? You could do the same thing with CWM, but I never trusted it, because you couldn't do a proper wipe before installing the ROM. So I got in the habit of making it a two step process.

a. Backup ROM

b. Boot into recovery, wipe, and flash new ROM

Does the goo app do a proper and complete wipe before installing a new ROM? And for a one-click - as you suggested - do I just create a blank text file and give it a .zip extension?

Thanks for the tip!

What was being beamed to you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] runandhide05:
Goo open script recovery...

It performs these tasks in the order shown in the pic,

If you just want to flash ROM without wiping caches don't check anything just flash,

Say you want to flash a new ROM and factory reset and make a backup before flashing.

Select zips then check mark backup and factory reset.

Will boot into recovery, make a backup of current state, preform a factory reset, then flash the chosen zips. Its that easy:)

I can't wait for this theme to be compatible with the latest version of Mmuzzy's rom, it looks beautiful. But that aside, how do I get your clothes widget? I tried using UCCW, import and all that but when I do it just comes up with the original white screen when you start the app.

UPDATE: Never mind, I figured it out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
That's because Samsung uses it's own software to send. Since you don't have the app it's defaulting you to the play store to try to get it. My wife has an SIII. Same issue.

I apologize for not updating the theme from the 12/18-12/22 builds, I saw this weekend Muzzy posted that he was experimenting with a possible update so I am going to wait a few days to see how that plays out. I will commit to updating the theme by the end of the week if there is not a new release by then. If there is, I will update the theme by the end of the following day after the release. The reason for hesitance is I decided to share the theme on Friday the 28th (my fault for waiting) and there was a new ROM on Sunday the 30th lol Thanks for your patience guys
