Just wanted to give a thumbs-up for this KK 4.4.4 release. I've maximized all battery saving features and it hardly uses any battery power. Sitting at 86% after 3 days of light use. I've tried other KK 4.4.4 releases but this has been the best for me.

Been using Battery Calibration, Better Battery Stats, and Wave Lock Detector, and Greenify apps minimize battery usage.

GNex is now back to being my Secondary Device codename: Gamer

So does staying on Dalvik possibly do better than ART?

What's the standpoint for you guys flashing the Bionic Files? (Yes they work, but might break camera, hasn't tested on 22/7 version yet)

DirtyV vs Fancy, which one do you guys feel more comfortable with? I stayed with Dirty for some while testing others now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santi1993:
Can u post a link with these files?

For me seems a lot better fancy r53, dirtyv seems more powerful but alot unstable, so its not for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
7/30 added to OP.

- Fancy kernel is now r53 (was r51)

- New logo in the About Phone area

- Advanced Backup/Restore (see the next post for details)

[poo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Advanced Backup/Restore

Tired of flashing half a dozen zips just to replace everything on /system that gets wiped away during a dirty flash? Me too, here's the method of my solution:

1) User begins dirty flashing a new LS-UNOFFICIAL

2) ROM installer looks at specific folders on /data

3) Files found in these folders act as triggers to backup equivalent files from /system

4) ROM installer wipes /system and installs ROM

5) ROM installer restores backups from step 3

Here are the /system folders supported so far and examples of their use. Let me know if there's more you'd like to add. Note that a clean flash will wipe away these /data folders, which is what you would want.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] büscher:
Pros for Dalvik: Xposed works and with the optimized libraries that are built in to our rom you won't feel any difference. Don't flash any of the zips in the dalvik/bionic thread. your system won't boot with these.

And I go with santi1993 DirtyV is epic if your phone likes it. I got more and more problems which other people didn't get so I decided to switch to fancy and am very satisfied, also for my daily usage I cant tell a difference in speed between those two.

edit: what doesn't work with this combination is adb and mtp... at least not on my linux...

edit2: [MENTION=3927368]poo706[/MENTION]: newest release won't go beyond bootlogo after dirtyflashing it on 7/22. did something wrong...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiD3991:
I kept having Media Process hanging. I don't know what I deleted that I shouldn't in the zip, but it kept doing it, so I probably should change it back to EXT4 I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
So why not just reflash an unedited zip?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] randy6644:
seems smooth, switching dalvik to art. will report back! THANKS!

---------- Post added at 04:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 AM ----------

it's very strange ,though.i flashed gapps, after switching to ART, everything's ok at the beginning, later i installed the root explorer , i see nothing in there, no file at all. so i think i should reboot it. after this , i get stuck at the liquidsmoot booting logo. before installing re , i did copy some files in the sd card. but i guess it has nothing to do with that ,right?

by the way , i switch to F2FS earlier.

Did I miss sth? any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
As far as I know there's no reason art shouldn't work with f2fs. I'm on dalvik and ext4, so I really don't know. The bit about root explorer is bizarre.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] randy6644:
then i wiped cache and dalvik again, it worked again. but still, the files couldnt been seen in the RE. then I installed the Fancy kernerl, it worked again.

just don't know what was going on. So far , everything runs pretty snappy, thanks for your hard work to bring this old machine back to life. One problem ,though. It's super hot, I just open one or two apps and it burns like hell. I moved away the cover and touched somewhere near the camera, then i realized it was really really hot, and i believe if i'd kept my finger there for 1 minute, it'd have got my finger burnt.

I wonder if it's happened to any of you out there, or it's just my problem. Or is it a kernel related issue. I'm not so sure. but i do remember it didnt happen on PA . But this rom is so like the name addresses, liquid smooth!

Were you not using Fancy all along, or are you saying you reflashed Fancy?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiD3991:
The same zip didn't have any issues on EXT4, even the extremely stripped down(without all phone function) one works flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
I can't imagine why, but maybe it's because my builds now include Fancy r53 instead of r51.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dezful:
Latest build working well so far. no bugs found. well done poo! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiD3991:
I did use the R54 test image in there. I built it in the zip.

Also poo, if its too bold to ask. Can you teach me how to build a rom and port sources? (and is ubuntu 32bit enough? I can't get 64 working)

I wanted to port velocity in.

Edit: Also since my HH being my primary device and in future M8(got it fairly cheap). My GNex is open. And My Nexus S is my perfect MP3, so I'd start with GNex. :D

Forgot how to turn off boot animation

Reflashed to latest ROM.

However, I totally forgot how to turn off boot animation. I thought it was under Settings -> Themes -> Boot Animations -> Holo -> Uncheck Boot animations?

It still boots up animation with Uncheck Boot animation. <sad panda>

Is there another way to turn off boot animation?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
I can help you with building, but not until you get 64-bit Ubuntu up and running, it has to be 64-bit. As far as modifying the source, some stuff is trivial (like changing the syntax in the updater-script) and some stuff is WAYYYYY beyond my skill set (like changing over to CM's new theme engine). I don't even know what velocity is, so I can't really comment on the difficulty of bringing it over to a different ROM.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
I've never tried to turn off the boot animation, but I just did try just now through the themes menu. When you uncheck it, hit update, go back, and then reenter Holo, it's rechecked. You might want to report that on G+.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santi1993:
As far i know that's the best rom i've tested for the moment, can u include Omni Kernel in this rom? cuz i've tested DirtyUnicorns ROM and has a default better screen on time without mods, but when i mod it fvcking mess like all my other parades, except for one install that was efficient as fvck =P

Anyone has been playing with Build.prop tweaks and init mods? Are they rediable for get more performance or just mess everything?

TY for the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
I need to keep fancy as the kernel so the rom stays unified. No reason you can't install omni's kernel after installing the rom, though.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santi1993:

im living in AR, a country in the other side of the ocean and i'm having random RIL Issues, do u get any report of this issue? is not the rom, i dont know if the kernel is in trouble or any of the build.prop cfgs, do u have any report poo?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingshads:
Loving this ROM. My phone feels rejuvenated!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiD3991:
Velocity is a small project gone big in the Mako era, it gone too big it became uncontrollable so the dev left XDA and made his own forum http://velocityrom.com and continued there. But he only supported device that are still supported by Google and certain devices like Nexus 10 and Nexus 7(2012) isn't supported. Its the same case like Anthrax kernel(I used it on HTC Sensation and its badass awesome), it used to be a taboo word but now its way past its season... Read it up for more information on Google.

No need to worry about CM. I don't hold a hate grudge on CM but I dislike using it since CM10...

Hi, still testing for now, i think if u merge commits from dirty unicorns all of us will be benificiated!

Testing with omnikernel in dirty unicorns and i can manage color cfg of my phone and battery n smoothness increases a lot.

Im having problems right nao with integrated superuser app, i think my su app isn't linked with binaries in a form that "superficial" apps could ask for permissions, in other cirunstances i have flashed SU Binaries from adb but i dont remember how exactly to do, so if anyone could help me to get superuser back without flashing the whole rom i'll be too much appreciated.

I dont know how to make a flasheable zip, but i have DU Kernel decompressed and flashed boot.img in BL with Nexus Toolkit.

I think some framework extensions could drain the battery like heads up, hover or circle app, and think that voice recognition always activated in launcher (i need to say that works flawlessly and efficient as i never see) drains battery tho however i think uses gnow routes that gnow deactivated in every moment that we are not in google now and launcher drains battery everytime we're in home, only supossitions, its a nice-to-have feature but if not appreciated maybe drains battery.

My problem was with screen on batt consumption and now with omni kernel can manage color profiles, maybe i got a discount in batt consumption, maybe not, for now i feel the phone more smooth and with better consumption, the DU kernel is not bringing back my phone&data, cuz this rom with DU kernel works fine with 3G, and even works with, in my side, more efficience.

Thanks poo for apply ur knows in this rom im very satisfied and hope learn some stuff to help improve my phone's life.

For anyone feel free to correct me please, my spell and my thoughs, bye.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Edgarngg:
The backup technique you included in the ROM would backup the ad blocker data and patches from lucky patcher, greenify and start up disabled apps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Quite possibly. What files, including paths, are you talking about specifically?

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Edgarngg:
Basically I just need the host file from /system/etc. About greenify is just fine, I just found out it stays the same. But what I don't know is how lucky patcher works because it's supposed to patch the apk from system/app. But with every dirty flash the patches are gone. Do you know anything about this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Place a copy of hosts at /data/ls_restore/etc. You can place a copy of whatever apk lucky is patching in /data/ls_restore/app. This will mean that you will keep using the same apk on each update. What apk does lucky patch and for what?

System ext4 data and cahce f2fs

Hey guys..Just wondering if there is a way to have the System ext4 with data and cahce f2fs. I tried using not force ext4 option on system in twrp but the phone gets stuck at google logo. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Nice work on the links! I've got some reading and learning to do. LTO looks very doable, I haven't really dug into JustArchi yet. Do you know if this is an either/or situation or can they both be used together?

I'm working on something big for my ROMs right now that I'm just going to keep under my hat for the the time being. But when that works out (or falls through), I'll start working on these optimizations!

ATTENTION MAGURO USERS CURRENTLY ON LS-UNOFFICIAL 2014-08-07

I need testers! Attached is a DeltaJen patch (see http://xdaforums.com/android/development/tool-deltajen-t2839999) that will take you from 8/7 to 8/11, and yes, it is only 6 megabytes! This will patch all of the files that changed between 8/7 and 8/11. Unchanged files, files you changed, files you added, and files you removed will be all be ignored. The system partition will not be formatted. Flash from recovery like usual.

Edit: Removed attachment, moved to OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Edgarngg:
Regardless of file system? Also I'm planning on formatting system back to ext4 and leave data and cache f2fs. After flashing 8/7 can I add this on top? Or need to boot it first?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
So you got past the google logo and the LS boot ani and got all the way to the lock screen? What do you mean it died on you? Did you notice any output along the lines of "file.ext has unexpected contents. assuming fine." when you installed it? I just had it for Provision.apk.

Dirty flashing the full ROM on top of the official is ok, but don't flash the patch unless you're on LS-UNOFFICIAL 8/7.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GilGameshn1:
Hmm ... Thanks for quick reply ... I will wait for full pack ROM after your testing completed ... Also wondered that did you used dirtyv kernel like official one as stock kernel ? Thanks in advance .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dezful:
Build 8/11 always getting stuck on boot animation if using ART :) Did not happen on 8/7

I got a lot of "unexpected contents" :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
The full pack ROM is in the OP, no waiting required. Fancy r53 is included, not dirtyV.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Sweet, I had a few other people confirm that ART is the problem. I'll talk to the DeltaJen dev. You'll get a pair of "unexpected contents" for each file that has been modified or removed. I have since changed that message to be clearer and each changed/removed file will only cause one output, not two.

[poo]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Could you grab a logcat for the bootloop? The DeltaJen dev needs it.

[poo]

Edit: Quick question, when you switch to ART, does line 101 in build.prop change from "persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib=libdvm.so" to "persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib=libart.so"?

Edit2: Couple more questions. Do you have to switch back to ART every time you dirty flash? Have you tried flashing a kernel after patching from 8/7 to 8/11? Also I attached a flashable zip with the build.prop from 8/11. If you would, try starting with 8/7, patch to 8/11, then flash the build.prop zip all in one recovery session.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GilGameshn1:
My play store gone missing after dirty flash the ROM over official one ... And google keyboard keep fc ing ... Reflash pa gapps modular mini and google keyboard .zip and everything come to life again ... And flashed fancy r54 fixed ramdisk over stock one ... Cool ... Thanks man .

Didn't read all the posts back, just wanted to say: I dirty flashed 8/7 over 8/4 and then flashed DeltaJen 8/11 and Fancy r54.

All is running fine on my maguro. I use dalvik btw.

My only bug: My phone behaves like it is plugged in and out, sometimes on battery it behaves like it is charging :p but I think that's more kernel or hardware related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
I need to try out r54 because I'd like to include that version with both my LS roms and my converter since it's mix and match ext4/f2fs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poo706:
Good question. I used to be all about Vanir, but I kept hearing good things about LS. At that time, the LS team did not build for my device (toroplus). One day on G+, I just happened to see RK asking for toroplus testers to try out LS and I jumped on it. I liked it slightly better than Vanir, so I switched. Eventually I started building LS for myself because I wanted newer versions more often than RK provided. Then I started sharing those with other toroplus users. Then I started building for toro and maguro. It just kinda evolved.
