Android 4.2 JOP40C extracted from:

Factory Images "takju" for Galaxy Nexus "maguro" (GSM/HSPA+) (with Google Wallet)

TWRP 2.3.2.0 touch recovery is out; it will leave a file when wiping data, to stop the creation of another nested 0 folder in /sdcard .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1592689

Features:

Deodexed

boot.img from factory image (maguro takju jop40c)

radio.img XXLH1 from factory image (maguro takju jop40c)

Busybox 1.20.2

su binary(to get root install SuperSU from Google Play)

Requirements:

Galaxy Nexsu GSM (GT-I9250)

Clocworkmod recovery or TeamWin recovery.

If current installation is a deodexed Jelly Bean it might not be necessary to do a factory reset(wipe data and cache), but otherwise I would recommend that.

In recovery:

Do a factory reset or wipe cache and dalvik cache

Install/flash rom image

Reboot - the first time it will take several minutes.

I'm not sure what happened, after wiping and installing this rom I have 4 levels of "0" sub-directories and all my files are messed up. Can't restore. Anybody have any help?

Ya I have only 2 levels. Not sure why that happens or how to fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shadow-Nexus:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashiken:
It seems like everytime you flash a 4.2 rom, it will automatically move all your /sdcard folders into a new /sdcard/0/ folder. So if you don't move the folders in the /sdcard/0 folder back to /sdcard/ after a new install, all your backups and certain apps will not work because they are looking for files in the /sdcard/ folder.

And if you keep on flashing 4.2 roms, they will just repeat the same thing by creating new /0 folders inside existing /0 folders if you did not move and delete them in the first place.

I'm still figuring this out but so far the only way is to use either your pc or a file manager app to move all your sdcard/0/ folders back into /sdcard/ after each fresh install before you attempt any thing like a titanium backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pipposs2007:
i also had did this, but the procedure is long because the internal memory of the galaxy is very slow! is there a way to speed up the cut and paste?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashiken:
I think someone in bigxie's thread mentioned using root explorer to create symlinks for the sdcard/0 folders. I haven't tried it yet. Will do so later at home I guess.

After decompiling core.odex with baksmali, I just compared all the smali files with the core.odex from JZO54K.

I found out that Random.smali was incomplete and the existing part was just like the one from JZO54K, so I just swapped it with the one from JZO54K.

It has been running good for me for almost two days now.

Either you can create one fore your region with help from the thread above or us the original one I've attached to this post.

Choose one gps.conf and copy it to the /system/etc folder, set permissions to rw-r--r--(644) and reboot.

GPS locked on me almost instantly within 100 ft while in my house. I have not tried the navigation though.ROM is running very smooth with no problems so far. Good Job!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] q711179:
I had saved data, photos, b-ups, and etc on computer as I expected to see my old files moved on the sd card, but to my surprise after flashing I found everything still there! What gives? Was there news of a fix that I had missed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marhensa:
yea the file is still there, but in a wrong directory.

the normal one is /storage/sdcard0

instead of /storage/sdcard0/0

trying to move all files from storage/sdcard0/0 into /storage/sdcard0

with file manager inside phone is slow and risky

(just in case it would hang or something in the middle of process).

but if you delete that all, and trying to copy all files from your backup on computer to galaxy nexus.

make sure you are not just copy paste using stupid MTP on windows explorer.

because MTP changed date modified timestamp.

and it's bad for gallery app video/pic sorting,

your gallery is messes up and unorganized in sorting when you just copy paste via MTP windows explorer.

use adb push command to /storage/sdcard0

and the date modified stays unchanged.

Can you/someone explain the sdcard/0 thing, I updated my phone to 4.2 and I had no issues my files are still in /sdcard
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] q711179:
DLike I mentioned earlier... I have to agree; there is no sdcard/0 on my device. Everything still under sdcard/ and accessible by file explorer as well as cwm. Don't understand why, and not complaining either

:p

Ok, so I finally get it. Went into cwm and found the sd/0 as mentioned numerous times and places. Feeling very enlightened now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jens13:
Before the upgrade to Android 4.2 /sdcard pointed to /data/media after the upgrade /sdcard points to /data/media/0.

At first boot if Android 4.2 does not detect the file /data/.layout_version it will migrate the content of /data/media/0 even if there already is a /data/media/0.

That is why some has gotten nested "0" folders.

TWRP 2.3.2.0 has solved this problem, more details:

Thank you for the work you have done.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrmoore10:
Now downloading... I like the 4.2 AOSP rom, I just don't like some of the problems 4.2 has brought. (for instance, the 0/ folder debacle supposedly caused by the coding the enables multiple accounts.) Also, I love that you deodexed the rom! Exactly what I've been looking for! One more suggestion... ever thought to including linaro in the kernel for accelerated responsiveness? (Just a thought) Thanks for a great ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jens13:
AFAIK Linaro is a compiler used when building kernels, the included kernel is stock.

If you want custom kernel there's plenty of them in this forum already.

Try Jame Bond, it's really nice.

Awesome Battery Life.

Loving the battery life this 4.2 ROM is giving. I've tried other 4.2 ROMS and kernels but STOCK 4.2 is a beast as far as longevity and idleness goes.

[RAZR HD General] krycek1984:
I am seriously considering the Droid RAZR HD. My main question is about the RAM. Is 1gb going to be enough for the phone to perform well over the next 20 months? I'm worried this will be a major hindrance. I love everything about this phone except its already a generation behind...no S4 pro and no 2 gb RAM.

That is the main reason I'd consider the note 2 or gs3.

I have had Windows Phone for a while now due to bad android experiences at first, so I want to avoid slowness, lags, etc. I'm giving Android one more chance.
[RAZR HD General] phobos512:
The likelihood is that there won't be a manufacturer supported update past Jelly Bean for the RAZR HD given past history. Any of the ROMs out there are optimized so will work fine - think of CM10 running on devices with only 512MB of RAM. It's certainly doable. The average phone is still coming with 1GB or less these days. Only the newest gen phones are coming with 2GB.

Honestly though, the camera on this thing is such a POS that I've got my name down for a DROID DNA at my store, which will be in before my first two weeks with the RAZR HD are up and will be a no-cost transfer.
[RAZR HD General] GoClifGo05:
The DNA storage is what turned me off to it... I don't understand why they are still designing phones like that.
[RAZR HD General] Bateluer:
It was the tiny, inexcusably small battery that turned me off to it. Storage ran a close second though. I need at LEAST 32GB of storage, 16GB doesn't cut it. Storage was the biggest reason I was turned off to the Nexus 4 and wasn't willing to sacrifice my unlimited Verizon data contract. Though, if LG/Google eventually make a 32GB N4, and resolve those overheating problems in the SoC, I'll give it another look in a few months.

Edit - I should say I that I bought a Razr HD Maxx myself for the battery life. My previous phone, a Galaxy Nexus, would get ~6hrs of light-moderage use when on mobile data. I'd unplug it in the morning, and have to juice it up before I left work. :/ The radios in the Moto also put the GNex to complete shame. My main office saw the Gnex test at 4-6MBs down, the Moto pulls 10-13MB in the same area. At one of our Co-Lo facilities, the Gnex would pull a speck of 3G. The Moto not only gets an LTE signal, it pulls ~9MBs down. Thats impressive.
[RAZR HD General] Iron_Catastrofe:
This is my concern as well. I'm of course picking up the RAZR HD or RAZR MAXX HD on Friday. I think it might be sufficient enough especially if you're going to root and we eventually get cm10 on this device which should be marvelous. Phonedog FINALLY did his RAZR HD vs S3 video. Quadrant scores showed the HD beating the S3 and its not even on Jelly Bean yet. Awesome build, good radios, great battery life, and a close to stock android look, what more can we really ask for at the moment. I just fear getting left in the dust again when it comes to updates, I'm on the Droid X2 which a.) is old and stuck on the much retired gingerbread b.) I didn't even get a taste of android 4.0
[RAZR HD General] HoochieCoo:
Of course 2gb is better than 1. But for me it wasn't just about technical specs. I liked the build quality of the Razr, and I really dislike that big home button on the S3. 1gb is fairly standard, and it will be awhile before apps need that much. 1gb is also plenty for 4.1 and 4.2 (if it ever gets it). I really wanted the Nexus 4, but I am stuck on Verizon. The Razr gives me the closest thing to a Google experience.

Good luck. There are several really good devices out there.
[RAZR HD General] lucidvtec:
Get the razr HD... the DNA is a joke..crappy battery with a quad core and bigger screen...that makes sense

Ram won't be a issue for the OS 1 gig is plenty for the next two years

Talk about battery life!!!

Stock rooted x926 used TB to freeze some bloat...not a lot..and I use smart actions

Freaking love this phone

Oh ya this is the reg..NOT the maxx
[RAZR HD General] LifeAsADroid:
To the OP... Keeping in mind you're in a RAZR HD thread area, take all of this with a grain of salt. I'm sure if you post in the DNA forum they'll tell you you're crazy for "taking a step backwards" with the RHD. Same in a GSIII forum thread. You'll have to make the final decision for yourself, with the info you get from everywhere.

Now that being said, I wholeheartedly am in favor of the RHD over the other devices, for many of the reasons already mentioned above.

- (objective) build quality is second-to-none with Kevlar, Gorilla Glass, and aluminum bezel. Sorry, I don't like Samsung's "playskool"-built phones. I perfer a durable, adult toy.

- (objective) the battery's a monster. It's been documented enough, no need to elaborate further.

- (subjective) I prefer the styling of my RMaxxHD to any of the other phones - black, nice curves, feels good in the hand...

- (objective) storage is far superior, and when you do things like download a TON of apps, music, videos, full-length movies, pics, etc., the more memory you have the better. Also keep in mind that 8/16/32GB is NOT the formatted memory; you actually get less to play with formatted, and the ROM, whether stock or not, will take up a good chunk as well.

- (objective/subjective) the camera is not as good, though I hear 4.1 JB should fix some of the problems? I don't take a ton of pics so I don't care about the camera.

- (fact - as of the timing of this posting) speaking of updates, these phones are slated to get the 4.2 JB update, though it's scheduled for 4Q2013 and we haven't even received the 4.1 JB yet... I do think we'll eventually get the 4.2 JB update, considering there is still support for the Droid 4 (which seems like an abacus these days it's so old, technologically speaking) and it's scheduled to get 4.1. No one knows for sure until it happens though.

- (objective/subjective) though 1GB RAM is much less than 2GB RAM, I haven't found myself saying "self, I wish I had more RAM in this phone..." My laptop uses 1GB RAM still (yeah, it's a bit of a dinosaur) and it still muscles through every task like a champ. And believe me, I put it to work. 1GB should be plenty for your needs.

- (objective/subjective) the screens are roughly the same size (4.7, 4.8, 5.0) and have roughly the same quality. The RHD is considered the "worst" of the three, but I dare ANYONE to look at the three screens and really honestly tell me you see a difference. I've stared at the GSIII and RHD screens, they look identical to me. 318ppi (pixels per inch) vs. 313ppi... yeah, you're gonna see that difference, right. Stop lying. On just the RHD screen itself, it's light years ahead of previous screens I've had on phones. I still tell people how vibrant it looks.

- (objective) the radios are as equally superior as the build quality. I would bet money I could get a signal on the moon (ok, maybe that's an exaggeration, but I haven't found anywhere that I haven't had a 4G signal, including places I barely got a 3G signal on my Ally and Incredible).

Good luck with your decision. And good luck with your buyer's remorse if you choose anything other than the RAZR HD/Maxx ;)
[RAZR HD General] krycek1984:
I refuse to fall for HTC again. I have had nothing but bad luck with all of their phones.

I also refuse to put a case on my phone..it makes it too thick. I drop my phones a lot and none have ever broken, I feel like Samsung phones break easily.

I am just nervous about Android buut hopefully it has matured to where not everything lags...and hopefully apps no longer look like they came from Windows 95. I think I'll go for the razor... wish me luck!

Update:

I've got data working (intermittently, probably due to EvDo vs 4g compatability) and once I'm able to get it going on a non-stock ROM I'll make a guide due to the shear level of effort this takes, you will need at least an intermediate level of android know-how to pull it off..

Question:

I'm currently working on transferring over my MetroPCS Wildfire S to PagePlus and have everything done but data (over radio). Does anyone have the PagePlus EPST Data Profile or EvDo data for this device?

Install Background:

Unlocked phone via HTCdev (hboot 1.10)

Installed TWRP 2.2.1 recovery

Installed CM9.1alpha9 (w/o backing up insert "durr" comments here) and gapps

Attempted to transfer phone to PagePlus (they got MED at their end, minor alpha bug kept me from pressing keys while attempting to activate phone in CM9.1alpha9)

Attempted manual PRL update using ##PRL# (CM9 alpha9 doesn't support/have implemented yet)

Attempted QRST PRL update (failed, HTCdev is only a partial unlock and DOESN'T unlock radio)

S-Off'd my phone (with goldcard, worked very well)

Attempted to install various Stock MetroPCS/Hense ROMs (all failed in TWRP)

Updated to TWRP 2.3.1.0 recovery (still no dice on ROMs, but at least ext4 works now)

Finally found a RUU stock ROM and did a full reset

Updated PRL using *228 (Roaming Issues

Attempted to reload TWRP (failed without an locked/unlocked indicator on bootloader (hboot 1.06))

Updated hboot (1.10.00001) and stock ROM

Updated PRL using ##PRL# and kittywireless provided PRL (over 2 years old, but it works..sadly)

I'll compile the "long story short" files, if anyone expresses interest. Hell if more than one asks I'll make a guide.

Hey everyone,

Lately I've been in the works of trying to get better battery life, as I only get about 2 - 2.5 hours of on screen time. I've seen other users get anywhere between 5-7 hours. I do use facebook, and have uninstalled the official facebook app for the friendcaster one, but have yet to still hit anywhere near that amount of time.

Out of curiosity, and hopefully future reference for other users, what are some great ways to boost battery life? Do you use apps? Uninstall software? Please, do share!

Manually controlling screen brightness was the biggest increase for me. The other one that helped was 2g data when i turn off the screen.
[HTC One S] Inferi0r:
Freeeeze apps with Titanium Backup. You wont miss anything neither you loose perfomance, no you gain.
[HTC One S] tgtoys:
Change notification updates to suit your needs. Stuff that you don't need to know right away, lower frequency or turn to manual. For instance:

- Change weather updates to every 1-2 hours, unless you really need to know that it changed by a couple degrees as it does.

- Decrease facebook notifications (big one. If you use it a lot, then keep it high, but realize that this WILL drain battery.)

- Manually update stocks (again, if you don't need them instantaneously)

- Blog & News apps usually set notifications on by default, disable or lower frequency on them

- Lower screen brightness

- Turn display to auto sleep 30sec-1min tops

Note that while some of the notification controls can be found within the system settings, many apps will require you to go to their individual settings to adjust them.

All depends what you do with it. Navigation, internet, talk time and intense games all suck up more battery. That doesn't mean you shouldn't do that stuff, but it's just the way it is on any device.
