3 times today after flashing the latest I haven't been able to wake the phone. Needed battery pull and restart.

Tried Air kernel and Tiny Kernel.

was dirty flashed ontop of the previous release of MMuzzy's rom

Clean wipe may be your only hope....do a wipe and see if that helps....

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
This has happened on occasion with dirty flashes. 4.2 seems to dislike it more than previous versions. The safest bet is to clean flash and let your apps restore from Play but you should also be fine with something like Titanium Backup as long as you're miserly with the data restores, especially taking care not to restore system data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsavaiano:
Awesome. Thanks so much.

I've been "dirty" flashing, but just clearing cache and dalvik cache beforehand. Haven't run into any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amessina:
MMuzzy,

One future request..

Any thoughts on redo'ing the quick settings control panel? I've seen a couple of implementations of this (Liquidsmooth's is pretty good). I'm not sure if it's a CM implementation or not.

Also out of curiosity, is there any cm10 code in your rom? I've always seen ROM makers put CM10 stuff in their roms, just curious if there was anything in this ROM that's cm10?

thx, Great rom!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veloslave:
A little OT... but maybe not

Was just wondering...

How many of you'all plan to stick with the GNEX for probably longer than usual because you will lose you grandfathered-in unlimited data if you get a new subsidized phone from big red?

That is me in a neat little package... but the cool part and maybe why we are not to too terribly OT... with this sweet MMuzzy ROM we are so ahead of ANY handset out there, at the very least, the most advanced level of the Google OS. with rocking hardware. I am too poor right now to even dream of a new handset anytime soon at full price. My son just brought over his new G3... nice but I didn't feel the slightest twinge of hardware envy and he knows who has the best ROM so... hee hee.

Anybody else really hoping MMuzy sticks around for a LONG TIME? :D

---------- Post added at 08:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 PM ----------

Have you seen this with stock kernel only? I haven't noticed it in the thread so far (maybe I missed it) and it seems the majority of times a problem like this is reported is with "aftermarket" kernels. I have been dirty flashing all along and the only time I have had anything go wrong was when I tried to add a different kenel... what a disaster that was. After the kernel fiasco (posted earlier in thread) I went to a fresh install with a TWRP backup installed over the top and I am back to dirty flashing on top of that... all is good, even with the backup!

As discussed earlier... the beauty of this ROM is it's "Stockness"... a perfect example of KISS. With the minimal amount of MODS we have, with authors that are like the MMuz, that hang out here all the time and stay on top of things... we have the perfect mix of advanced/bleeding edge WITHOUT all the blood!

Sorry... Am I gushing on you guys again?

Just in case I am not clear...

MMuzzy for President, Kampdavidguy for vice President and adbfreedom for Secretary of State ( I would like to see this switch made right now BTW)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flomaster:
I bought the wifey a SG3 for Xmas... rooted, unlocked it, loaded up TWRP... went to look for the Mmuzzy 4.2.1 variant and couldn't find one :( so I loaded up Liquid Smooth's rom... gallary isn't working on it and Photoshpere isn't a stock option. one thing Liquid does have over this rom is the quick settings. its really smooth and endless toggles to be added.

over all im super happy with my Mmuzzy 4.2.1 and G-nex I do envy her shinny new device, but I have the better phone :) as long as I can rock Mmuzzy's Rom.

-=Jason=-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I'm not planning on moving. Verizon has my hands tied with the lack of a Nexus. Hopefully we won't feel the effects of aging hardware with Android 5.

I do think that it's difficult to troubleshoot things like memory leaks and random behavior issues but we do see often that either clean flashing or finding that problem app that goes flaky either right away or over time is often to blame. As for kernels, I think that it isn't the kernels so much as the added chance for problems they give. The more a kernel lets you tweak your OS the most chance you have for random odd behavior. I don't think 4.2 needs any help with it's built in oddities. Although things seem better now.

I think they're using CM/AOKP type Quicksettings which rely on a ROM Settings / Swiss Army Knife type app, right?

=============

Sorry about the lack of responses. I've been experimenting with a couple things. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
Tease
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
If I had a dime for every time I heard that... I'd owe people money. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I can't speak for anyone else but I know I'll probably be using my galaxy nexus until it's dying breath. I always run my electronics into the dirt - sometimes even longer - before moving on (I've gone so far as baking a video card in my oven at 200 degrees for 20 minutes to melt the solder on the board to fix wear-and-tear cracks that were causing it to freeze up - got an extra 6 months of use out of it in doing so). Hell, I got my OG Motorola Droid at launch and I still maintain it in working order for my father.

When I moved to the Gnex I lost my unlimited plan and got bumped down to 4GB a month. I can see the unlimited plan as being a big deterrent from upgrading, but I have to admit that I never come close to even a gigabyte of usage in any billing cycle. I'm almost always connected to WiFi, and I don't do any sort of streaming except for the occasional music from my Google play account.

I just see no good reason to upgrade right now. Sure the Gnex is slightly outdated with its dual vs quad core CPU, but I can't think of a good reason for a phone to have a quad in the first place, and all of the quad core devices I've used have been riddled with problems and poor responsiveness in comparison to my phone. The Gnex's gig of RAM is very formidable, so I can't foresee a hardware upgrade that would entice me to move on. (Unless Verizon finally gets it together and implements a true LTE network that requires a new chip to take advantage of).

That just leaves ROM updates as a reason to upgrade. If everyone else has moved on in a few months/years from now I'll learn how to package my own ROM if it means eeking a little more life out of this thing (worst case scenario being that I can't get the latest and greatest functioning and get stuck using the last stable version of the OS. Not a huge deal for me). I can't imagine a version of the android OS that would bring the GNex system to a screeching halt like ICS did with my OG Droid so it should be good to go for a long time to come. Hopefully that translates into a longer lifecycle in the developer community.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I think what I'm figuring out is that I wanted an android device and the phone was a way to justify moving to one. Since the time I had my HTC Incredible we're in a different place now of inexpensive Nexus tablets, etc. I don't really need my phone to be able to play games anymore. Hell, with the ADHD I have for games I never needed it to anyway.

I think the GNex has plenty of life left in it. I also think the lack of a new Nexus on Verizon is going to keep more people around longer too. Switching carriers is a little drastic if you're not in a metropolitan area.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Undeception:
I've searched the recent posts and have found no reference to this, but here goes.

1) The video camera has several display lags during the videoing (thankfully, the lags don't show in the recording). Worse, after completing a video recording, the display freezes up while saving, often up to a minute or worse for longer videos.

2) Sometimes when switching between data towers, especially on the road, I'll lose mobile data connection. Sometimes toggling it seems to fix it, but other times I have to end up rebooting in order to get it back.

I'm on the 12-18 build. Trying reflashing that now, but I doubt it will help. Anyone else having similar issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
I haven't had those sort of issues. I've seen lagging video cameras, but I've taken a few on this ROM and they've been smooth. Do you have a custom kernel? Any tweaked settings like PMR, Zip Aligned, or any other MODs besides stock mmuzzy? I've been on nothing but stock and never generally need to post about issues or SoD problems...

Just fanboy posts ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Undeception:
Thanks, GB. I meant to mention that no, I have not added any customizations, including kernel, etc. For the most part it's a crazy good ROM, but these two things keep bugging me. :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Make sure you're on the latest radio from the last ota although I'm sure you checked that already for the data drops. As for the lagging video, that might be an indicator of something else bogging things down. Maybe an app like CPU Spy or Better Batter Stats will give clues on what might be running behind the scenes hogging resources. When you clean flash be miserly about data restoring and don't restore system data, ever.

-----------------------

I've been playing in the sandbox with a couple things. One I don't like the implementation even though it was a pain to try so I'm not even going to mention it but the other is pretty handy. I think it's going to fit in the 'some will love it, some will hate it' category, expanded desktop. I use this ROM on two devices myself and this feature has been requested on a couple of them. I didn't realize it existed but one I knew about it and ran apps where the app didn't go fullscreen I started to understand why it would be a nice feature.

EDIT: We won't be dropping a ROM for a while though. Stable is stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artjef:
+1

Both sons and daughter in-law have S3 and I very content with my GNex running Muzzy ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcavoya:
On the subject of keeping my GNex for a long time. . .

As much as I liked HTC's Sense on my DInc2, I like the Nexus experience even better.

I turned green when my friend got the S3; but, after about 30 seconds of playing with TouchWiz, the drool on my lip dried up. Another 30 seconds later I was handing the phone back to him trying to hide the disappointment on my face.

A few posts back, someone mentioned that their next phone was going to be whatever MMuzzy's next phone is. That's exactly my intentions also.

From the sound of it, I live in the mid-west version of MMuzzy's east coast Carrier Desert. So it's a bit of a relief to hear him say he's sticking with the GNex until VZW pulls their head out of the sand (sorry Muz).

So the point of all this is -- I'm going to be happily using my GNex for the foreseeable future!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
OK, stupid question. I played with a nexus 7 this week and forgot how much I liked the home screen rotation. I can't for the life of me remember why 4.2 won't rotate. What am I forgetting? Is there a mod that I'm missing or did we lose this when we went from 4.1?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Thanks. And nothing to apologize for. We'll part ways eventually and some of us will land on the same thread and some of us won't. Unless we have some really open non Nexus phones coming up though I can't see myself switching to anything but.

There was a line you could add into the build.prop that I don't think works anymore. Apex or Nova launchers, probably others, have it though. Full disclosure, I use Nova because I like folders in the app drawer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
As long as it is a toggled feature ... I'm game.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Of course. Two things I immediately like it for are Chrome full screen on the fly and some video apps, etc, that don't fully go full screen and leave the bar and soft keys. This last one baffles me. I'm a little paranoid about burn in even if it's really just temporary.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thesuzukimethod:
I actually gave up my unlimited plan so we could get a GNEX for the wife on the cheap*. She's running an "old" version of mmuzzy's ROM that has been super stable for her and she loves it. I keep crackflashing on the bleeding edge and update her phone when something she would notice gets added in. She came from a D-Inc (great phone, had a few "gremlins" that annoyed, plus sense), and i hear nothing about her phone (which means it's working perfectly...thanks muzzy!)

*as for data and unlimited, we actually save a few $ each month on metered/capped shared data since we use wifi at home and work/school...I am hoping by the time I go back out for fieldwork, that VZW has made their shared data pricing a bit more realistic. As for carrier options, there are multiple locations around our city and in the country where there is no coverage save for verizon (thanks alltel merger!). switching is not an option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Kids at college, family in other states, WiFi at home and work... Share Everything plan makes more sense than holding onto unlimited data I never use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poena:
what are the latest radios?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
The build.prop tweak doesn't apply anymore since the setting got moved into the Launcher2.apk. It's now in Launcher2/res/values/bools.xml as "allow_rotation". Just switching it from false to true re-enables the homescreen rotation. I have a flashable zip version you can use:

4.2 Homescreen Rotation
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adbFreedom:
I just made one too, only to come back and find you beat me too it LOL. I'm going to post it anyways because it's already packaged up

https://www.box.com/s/izg9cfdg6oayek3ul62z
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
Grabbed the zip, thanks! Been playing with nova launcher thus morning and I kinda like it... Already had a crash. Stock is always my preference but nova does have a lot of features... Decisions decisions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1n0m3n:
I use Nova Launcher (or any other launcher for that matter) over stock simply because the home screens are easily backed up and restored via Titanium Backup.

This is also the reason that I use a tethering app over the ROM's native tethering app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Yes. This is another feature I really like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hogowner:
Stupid question...where is the kill apps button....

UPDATE

December 28, 2012

- Added Vanilla ROM option

This download is intended for people who just want the ROM AOSP stock. Please don't ask for MODs for this ROM, my intention isn't to kill off the MOD guys. This is for those who want straight AOSP. This ROM will most likely be done first when we have build updates from Google.

So we now have Vanilla and French Vanilla. I don't remember who said that but I loved it and I'm stealing it. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
I love this decision and option to go straight AOSP or tweaked. Thanks a lot Mmuzzy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ba_hamilton:
Nice idea. I like my mods so I'm staying French.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
You're welcome. I know that as I deviated I also chipped away at the appeal for some people. My bigger hard drive allows me the space I needed to store them. And my vacation week gave me the time to get it going. It also gives me a speedy path to go when we get build updates. I expect some added features will break and this give me the ability to get the ROM out fast.

Me too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] georgeascott:
Just a bit more praise... I'm still on the 1211 build, just before the 'clear recent' update. I use the minimal nav buttons, lower DPI nav mod and the quick reply mod. And nothing more.. I also use tiny's kernel. I have had no issues at all related to the ROM, kernel or even battery life (sometimes squeezing 20+ hours of use). I downloaded cm10.1 when I saw it come out and even got the 1222 mmuzz update but seeing that nothing has given me a reason to change, haven't. Very solid and I also enjoy creeping in the thread. Best and most(ly) professional group of individuals.

I plan on getting the n7 or 10 in a month or so and I don't recall if there's mmuzzy support or a need for it, but I've learned tons just by keeping up with this thread. So, thanks to all... Devs, mod authors, and all other contributors.

Y'all rock
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Agreed. It's a great group! There was that one time during a full moon when things got a little nutty but then they realized they were looking for the Windows Mobile forum. Not really. I actually like Windows Mobile. Not really...

I do have a ROM for the Nexus 7 because I have one, a ROM for the Nexus 4 because someone asked nicely, and I'm working on one for the Nexus 10 because I was sitting here today anyway. Fingers crossed on that last one. My poor computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patmw123:
The new Vanilla ROM option is exactly what I have been waiting for with this ROM. Thanks for all your hard work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Ah, good. I have a feeling you weren't alone. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drPheta:
So, Vanilla doesn't have the tweaked quick settings or expanded power menu, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
It's naked as the day it was born. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gadzooks64:
We have 4/5 phones with unlimited plans.

Can't bring myself to give that up. Switching to the Family Plan would cost us at least $30/mth more for limited data. Just doesn't quite make sense.

Three of us have Gnex phones. I flashed Muzzy on two of them and we are loving it. Battery life is better and haven't run into any problems.

I have friends with S3s and a Note 2. So pretty. So so pretty.

I have an ebay Gazelle store search for used S3s but having a hard time parting with that much money. Besides, I should really use this GNex until next Xmas to justify it. By then the next Nexus should be out...:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donothurtme:
Just installed the Vanilla version. Rings Extended is still baked in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I still have GAPPs in the ROM. I haven't added MODs. If it was pure, pure AOSP you'd have an unusable phone.

Well, it would be usable but pretty gimped and buggy.

EDIT: I suppose I can make that version GAPPs free next time.

Theme for 12-18/12-22 Builds

Some people were asking about theme options in the thread earlier, so I decided I will share my personal theme that I made for my phone in case anyone was interested. Just to be clear, this is kinda the opposite of "vanilla" lol It is primarily blacked out with holo blue and white throughout.

Disclaimer : If you dont like blue, don't flash this theme

Here is a quick list of what you can expect

-Blacked out menus/settings/dialer

-Themed quick settings

-Themed Notification pull down

-Themed notifications for Gmail/Play Store/Calendar/Messaging

-Moto Style themed signal

-Centered Lock Screen

-42 dpi NavBar with Blue 5 Soft Key set up (Stock 3 keys in the middle with search to the left and menu to the right)

(Note: Battery image in quick settings will always show full because I dislike gray, text will tell you the percentage)

-- If you are running a custom kernel with color multipliers, I recommend using Trinity's colors - Red:135, Green:135, Blue:214 --

(your quick settings will not have my avatar lol)

** Remember to make a backup before flashing so you can return if you don't like the theme **

Thank you sir! I was waiting to for a release I will be on for a while to update. I will be on 12-18 for at least a month now after all of my edits for the theme lol

Yea it will overwrite the battery/softkey mods. I hope I remember correctly that you were running stock blue softkeys with the cm style circle battery. If so ... I built the Moto signal in with that combo just for you ;)

(let me know if it works out)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcampbell:
If clean flashing doesn't help, make sure you have NOT turned off screen animations. There have been a lot of "sleeps of death" associated with this; if you leave them alone (at 1.0x), it might help. I'm very skeptical of this, but it was affecting me and turning them back to 1.0x seems to have solved it; no more battery pulls needed after doing it, so it might actually have merit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pennjersey83:
You're theme is really nice! Is there anyway I can flash it with the blue zenyth soft keys and stock battery? The battery is not so important but I really like the zenyth keys
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adbFreedom:
I will most likely be away from the laptop until Monday to be honest, but the zenyth thread has instructions to use zipthemer to replace just the keys which will keep the theme intact and only replace the soft keys

MMuzzy,

Lol, Are u holding out on us?? Where can I get my hands on the Vanilla Nexus 7 rom?? I feel dirty that I've been using a different ROM on my n7!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Not at all. I'm on my phone without my glasses but you can click on the grouper link in my Sig or go to the grouper directory on my goo.im link in op. :)

EDIT: Huh. Now that I'm on the computer and I can see what I typed I guess I didn't do too badly for being blind and on that 'small' Gnex screen. On Goo.im I have added a folder for the stock ROMs for each device so they can be found easily by using Goo.im manager, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] notstevek:
Sorry if it's already been discussed, what is the vanilla ROM? I have the 12/22/12 build, is the 12/28/12 build actually different (base source, new features etc). The change log doesn't really explain much. I understand you added a stock/pre-modded versions, is this just how your new updates will be?

Edit: ah I see vanilla is pure aosp, French has mods/tweaks.

Thanks mmuzzy!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I was just about to come in here and answer this. Glad you saw it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2010gt:
Thank you for the Vanilla option! It's the reason I started with your ROM in the first place (since you manage to push out updates quicker than Verizon :good: ) I flash my own mods so this was a welcome addition!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Great! Going forward compile the vanilla ROMs first. That'll give me time to add back in the added features of my ROM without anyone waiting on me to finish.
