Something I don't understand is...why you say you want to keep the ROM stockish, and then instead of adding Quick Toggles (that are stockish, because CM ones look like Google ones, just more powerful), you remove CRT-off animation? It doesn't make much sense for me...but you're the developer, it's up to you.

I'm still looking for a stock-based rom, with only the two-three things that Android misses: more toggles, reboot options, and maybe centerclock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
1. Quick toggles should have settings, i want to keep it clean.

2. I dont like crt-off animation, disabling it wont affect stock look and feel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
Please battery percentage!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Could you find a commit for it please. Not cm percentage battery. Aokp one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] damage98:
This ROM is a keeper. I've tried most roms but I keep coming back to the rasta and sandys adds are perfect. My phone is liquid butter. Don't change a thing. I'm not even going to flash the new build I'm good right here. AK 256 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ledoweb:
Yes, I see your point. But, why don't you create a standalone app for these fundamental settings? I mean, I agree that having system settings clean is a good thing. But you could put some necessary mods and tweaks into a separate app, maybe optional to flash.

Disabling CRT-off is an error for me: it is one of the most recognizable things of Android on a Galaxy Nexus. It will make your rom suddenly way more "strange" and "anormal" than any other out here. Just unlocking the phone now can reveal that someone isn't using stock rom. Is this stock look 'n' feel?

But do what you prefer. I'm just pointing out some advices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] l92:
Ad Halo. I cant live without this feature :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Good to hear! Honestly it wouldn't hurt if we could configure volume wake. I for one am not a big fan of volume wake but your ROM smoothness just makes me unable to flash other ROMs haha. Keep up the good merging all those optimizations.

The CRT off animation is weird in 4.2 but some would still like it in the ROM. Just a thought.

Thanks for sharing this with us :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Well that's a personal preference of mine. I am in the process of adding everything that I use / want into it without me having to configure anything so that I don't add extra options into settings. I ll may be build a true vanilla + t9 too for real purists out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
I don't know how to find the akop battery commit. Hope someone else can help on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franklinlucas:
Thanks again sandy-achar. I don't like the CRT animation either. I would suggest you to incorporate the new camera app that came out with the Google Edition Phones, I've just downloaded and tested it, works perfectly.

Although I'd like things to be customizable, the ROM is perfectly fine for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
tested build 27th. it's extreme fast! suprisingly the benchmark score is "only" 3200. but the phone feels like having 4000, even when watching the 2d/3d test the tests were more fluently than on other roms. using it with latest franco kernel/bfq. running great :) normally i am using rasbeanjelly, kinda missing the navbaroptions, but the speed of the rom is great :) gonna test batterylife soon. can't say much about it now, but the rom seems to be very stable.

thx for sharing this great rom with us :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] damage98:
I'm getting great battery stamina and gps working perfect. Also flashed awesomes volume fix plus eizo works fine no glitches.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Updated :) download from OP,

Changes:

- Added navbar height selection - in display

- Added battery percentage - in display

- Lot and lots of bug fixes and optimizations.

- Made Minimal gapps package and extras.

Check post 3 for new packages :p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
gonna test it now :) like the idea of minimalistic stuff :) exactly what i want :)

edit: tested, without new cam. got an fc when opening camera

edit2: after installing 4.3 cam. cam works, old needs to be deleted manually
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
What did u get an fc with?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
When we flash the ROM + GApps + 4.3 stuff, there will be 2 camera apps in the app drawer. The old camera app would fc. Once we use a root file manager or titanium backup to remove the old gallery2.apk , all is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
when opening stock camera (not 4.3) had an fc. deleted stock gallery, reboot installed 4.3. this cam works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Oops sorry, will fix asap
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
No biggie. It's a tiny issue, but all is well :) Really loving the ROM. I find myself waking up the phone by accident thanks to volume wake haha. But it's so fast+smooth that I will deal with it than flash another ROM.

And what I find strange is that your ROM boots up much faster than the ROMs I have tried on my maguro. This is handy as I'm experimenting with UV at the moment so I need to reboot the phone quite often.

---------- Post added at 12:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

And the leaked 4.3 fonts looks nice. Reminds me of how fonts was rendered on pre 4.2 days. Thanks for including them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
love the rom too :) faster than light ;)

u should name your next update ftl edition :D tried yesterday a 4.1.2 rom cuz of system ui lag. but opening apps faster and ui in general made me coming back xD

edit: found a bug ;)

when changing navbarsize, the backbutton won´t change its size.

not sure if this came after using camera or was before there. to make it better visible i change navbarsize to 24.

edit nr2: in the new gallery, effects got fc when opening. so if you´ll get the old one working it would be enough for me ;) i don´t see so many approvements in the new one until now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Damn ur right, will fix that right away. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunnahabhain:
Don't wanna stress but is another build in the pipleine with fixed navbar? :fingers-crossed:

And besides that: I have some very good experiences with enabling systemwide GPU rendering via init.d script:

Would that take effect in this ROM?

I also have a lowmemorykiller script and one that zipaligns the apks. Are they sufficient for this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Yep I ll fix that soon once I figure what's conflicting with the navbar height. The apps are already zip aligned. And I never use that stuff so I don't know about that. Also the rom should just run fine without task killers, more cached processes helps to retrieve the apps faster and get a smoother transition while opening and closing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
btw, phone is up for 1day+ no system ui lag :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
And navbar height is fixed! Wait for the next build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franklinlucas:
Awesome! Using this ROM as a daily driver, it's perfect.

Sandy-achar, if possible, would you make volume rocker wake optional? I found myself accidentally waking up the phone, I'd like to disable this. Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GamaX320:
hope can add AOKP navbaer setting:cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
New build up, download from OP:

Changes:

- Fixed navbar height bug.

- some more optimizations.

- Two gallaries while flashing 4.3_stuff over my gapps fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Many people have been asking for it, i might just add it in the next build.

Probably not :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Syfer_Fever:
tried your ROM yesterday(build june 30) this ROM is great, love the speed and optimization and the most important is Stock look, really i love this concept, looking forward on this ROM.

but i miss the features of QS mod from kevdliu :( and the reset is perfect. paired with Fancy Kernel. gonna download your latest build and flash it soon :D

good decision, just make this ROM as Stock look with many optimizations :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunnahabhain:
Yeah, keep it stock.. I was tempted to ask for quiet hours though. It is easily hidable in sound settings just as CM does it. No compromising of the stock look. It is a handy feature. But i know your policy, will flash this right now.

BTW did u add t9 dialer?

BTW again: 116 mb footprint is insane? Did you cut every app in a half?

And BTW AGAIN: Why does this thread is only rated 4 stars!!!

BTWWWW: Check out this bootanimation sandy:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3200129/Nexus_JBBootanimation_CWM.zip

It looks somehow like the stock AOSP one but it reflects somehow the roundness and smoothness of this ROM a bit more :good:

:P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
+1 no volumewake cuz display turns on when my phone is in the pocket and i just want to lower/raise volume music.

gonna download newest build when back home :) btw i also don't understand the 4star rating. already rated 5 stars yesterday ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
1. Yes T9 dialer is added.

2. Haha. I want to reduce the size even further to skinny it up little more :D

3. Was kinda bummed about it at first, but then these are the builds I make for myself that I m sharing to give back to the community and I am not making it for ratings or thanks, so it doesn't matter.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Yes I am considering it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheRC51:
This would be my ideal ROM if you had a transparent navbar and status bar! Other than that, his sounds like exactly what I want!! (Oh and +1 that we have an option for the volume button wake) Will be installing soon!

Edit: Just flashed July 2nd ROM. Home button doesn't work! Very very fast though.

Edit again: Sorry, I lied. Home button does work. Fancy kernel just hates my phone. This ROM is fantastic. A few more additions and touchups and I will be the happiest person in this thread!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thenemis:
i 'skip' 20mb by trim PRODUCT_LOCALES to only english ;) & remove dictionary on latinime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] karta1993:
Amazing rom. Incredibly fast and stable.

I think if you can add customizable qs widget it will be perfect. It'll still look as stock aosp. One more thing, i think revert the bootanimation will be a good choice, i think.

Thanks for the great rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunnahabhain:
Sandy just another idea:

Some weeks ago it was discussed all over XDA that decreasing the heapgrowthlimit from 96 to 64, as it was in 4.1.2 days, should help with smoothness and performance. Did you stress-test your ROM regarding that? Some other ROMS as Purity changed those values... Just decreased the values myself with build.prop editor from market. Will report back...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
old cam still does not work. the rest is perfect ;)

edit: effects in new one still fc'ing. i don't care which one is gonna be fully functional. just need one xD

btw, sandy's ras+fancy=awesome combo ;)

Pairing it with fancy r33 now.

Only missing kevliu's quick settings mod as several others had mentioned. Otherwise this is as close as I would have built it myself (if I know how to)!

Bug Report

In landscape mode the location of the navbar buttons is mis-aligned...screenshot attached
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Is that stock navbar height?

Edit it works fine for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freezer2000:
Thats with the stock navbar height...

Edit: tried with all navbar heights...its still misaligned. The Home button is not in the centre of Back and Recent Apps button
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Strange

Did u flash any mod etc? Did you clean flash? Try that.

Anyone else getting that error?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
I think I no why the fc, I ll fix it soon
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] karta1993:
Mine is okay nothing is misalogned
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freezer2000:
There are few mods I flash...but guess it could only be one which does the black themeing across that could cos changes to the system UI.

Let me try dirty flash the complete set and see if that works. Thanks :)

Edit: As I guessed, it was the DarkerModJB_Universal by eng.stk http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1878871 that was causing it...

Sandy, any chance this could be included in the ROM, since the Gradient look of the Settings/Quick Settings screen is something really annoying on the Galaxy Nexus display.

---------- Post added at 04:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 AM ----------

Sandy, I flashed the 4.3 files over the ROM and Gapps and had the Camera FC when selecting to Edit the shot... However installing the camera apk available through Android Police lets the camera feature work without any FCs. Here is the link for you to try: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...a-from-google-play-edition-devices-root-only/

waiting for an update and camera :)

i hope you´re gonna continue working for that rom.

really like it, atm back to rasbeanjelly, but would like to flash sandy´s ras again :)

system ui lag didn´t appear on sandy´s ras after one day usage, on other roms noticable after 1h+...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franklinlucas:
I'm so happy with this ROM I didn't even bother to update it. I'm in June 27 build and I don't think I'm going to change it! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] damage98:
Yup this is my last maguro rom. Mako coming next week should be waiting for me when I get back from Houston and #wpc13.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GCbard:
I'm am loving this room. Simple stable and fast as all hot place! Thank you for a great operating system!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Congrats, I use a mako too.

An update is along the way for all you flashahoics :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
New build up :D

Changes :

- Reworked everything from scratch optimizing everything.

- Removed Navbar height for this build, still have to clean up some codes in it. Sorry

- So much more mem leak fixes and performance improvements.

- Removed my gapps and 4.3 package as its been nothing but hiccups to ruin the experience.

- Option to make volume rocker wake user configurable.

I have been using this build for a day to check it, its the best build yet, the speed / battery is going to make you flip. This is like a milestone quality. And i will release it as a milestone build. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abalam:

- navbar height added back

- quick change in notification menu between toggles and tiles by swiping
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djdavis:
Just want to say excellent work. I was on Purity before which was great before it started slowing down and stuff, but this rom is consistently faast and smooth. Very fast.

Keep up the great work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jakTomas:
does it have navigation ring option ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franklinlucas:
No, but I suggest you this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher

Not exactly what you want, but can do the job. Free, open source, no ads, highly customizable and can even launch shortcuts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GamaX320:
how about the nav bar settngs?CM or AOKP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Anyone feel like halo ? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kizaros2g:
Me! Cannot imagine the awesomeness with halo :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Not a big fan of halo. When I tried it on PA it was a laggy mess on my phone and it ate up a lot of RAM. My question is would RAM usage be the same as the current release if I disable halo on the new (unreleased) build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
I am just trying halo for myself, I don't know if it will even be a part of the official release. If I feel it's smooth and stable enough for a daily driver I ll include it perhaps.

So far the experience has been splendid.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Maybe the latest release is much better. I tried it while it was still in beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
New build is up :

Changelog :

- Some bug fixes and optimizations

- Halo :D

I want to get reviews about halo and how it is working for everyone, if the experience is smooth enough.

Download from OP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
New build up :D

Download from OP,

Changes :

- New vertical gestures for halo

- clear all and silence for halo

- PA`s statusbar icons cause i felt it looked better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L-ViZ:
if halo is disabled. has the halo feature then negative influences on the general rom performance? (not a big fan of halo, for me unnecessary)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Nope nothing, disable it away.

I am not sure if I ll include halo from next build onwards, i just included this time to gather everyone's opinion about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d4nteps:
thanks for the new build!

any chances for themechooser and toggle setup? thats the only 2 things i'm missing..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] karta1993:
For me, i prefer without halo but it's okay as optional feature

I'd love to if you add sync, torch, and screen timeout toggle. Maybe as optional

Btw thanks for the wonderful rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Nope, i won't add theme chooser. You could try the new mobile substrate thing by saurik. To theme.

I ll see what I can do
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Just flashed build 2 (skipped build 1). I flashed to sabermod for a while (used it for a day) and the camera wasn't working well so I decided to return to this ROM (dirty flash) and then I find this. Not sure if it's a bug or feature :)

The background of the title should be holo gray and not transparent.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
I guess you should try a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rob151515:
Funny, I'm getting a similar thing with menus being transparent when they shouldn't be....

When I flashed I wiped system, factory reset and cache/dalvik? Is this a clean flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
A factory reset is usually already considered a clean flash. Hmmm that's weird if you are having the same issue even with a clean flash. But now at least now I know I don't need to do a clean flash :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Strange, is this happening with all the menus? I haven't changed anything for that to happen!

Anyone else with the same bug??

Is this happening to you guys with all the menus that pop up?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rob151515:
Not sure if it's all menus, it's not happening at the moment - seems to go away after a reboot. It wasn't just menus either. Some other UI elements were affected as well. I noticed that the little spinning circle next to the word 'Rebooting...' had disappeared as well when I went to do a reboot.

One thing I have tried is rebooting into recovery wiping cache/dalvik and also fixing permissions. Not having a problem at the moment but will report back when it starts happening again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Yeap it's a pretty strange bug. You go to settings, apps and you see the spinning loading circle normally. At random intervals the spinning circle goes missing. And even it happens on TricksterMod occasionally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Does this happen when halo is enabled or disabled?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
I took each of the earlier screenshots with halo disabled.

Immediately after enabling halo, it seems to be okay for a while before it glitches up again
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Is it happening to anyone else? Cause it's not happening to me. May be u both have something in common? What rom did u use before this? Clean flash? Which kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] karta1993:
Going back to the july 9th build. I feel it's smoother and bugless compared to the one with halo version.

Thanks again for your amazing build
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Your earlier non halo builds, then sabermod, then to the new halo build. Stock kernel. Giving Franco a try now.

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

Alright I flashed back the older build (Jul 9) and I still have this problem. Funny thing is I previously didn't have this problem while on this build. I will try a full wipe later it's almost 1 AM here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franklinlucas:
Just reporting: I didn't upgrade since July 5th build, and here this problem doesn't exist.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sandy-achar:
Lemme see, if the halo doesn't play well, I ll remove it from next builds. Halo works well for me and I haven't had any of the problems stated above. I have no clue why that's happening to you people.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Doomhamma:
I also don't have any problems as you guys stated ... My halo is disabled though, never enabled it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
After a full wipe, all is good again :) but I rather not flash the newer halo enabled builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] karta1993:
This rom+franco r384 surely a perfect combination.

I have no lags and best battery life ever until now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boonz19:
I'm also still using 5th July's build as I didn't see the need to get Halo for myself. Everything is still running as great as it can be! Only missing the GPS toggle to turn GPS on and off as needed to save battery. Nonetheless, great job!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nicuz95:
Hi guys, I saw this ROM some days ago and I'm really interested. I only have a question, does this ROM have the possibility to change Quick Settings' tiles?
