New stuff
4 different weather icon packs for lock screen weather( in misc)
30 or so car logo lock rings
in softkey area at bottom ability to flash stock shaped highlights if you dont like what came with your softkeys. for the colored ones you must go to navbar and set the nav glow to 8 zero's (00000000) which will show grey and white boxes. you can then see the color.

as before tmobile themes hijack a lot of this capability.

We hope your having fun and look for more fun coming very soon.


We are glad your liking. we have some great surprises coming :)

The torch toggle sometimes takes 2-3 times before it starts working. After that, it'll work with each cycle of the toggle until I reboot. Then it's hit and miss for the first few presses again. Anyone else notice this or no?

I was about to say no issues here as I needed it last night and it worked as expected. But I just gave it another try before responding and it didn't work every time. The toggle changes to show it's on but the light was not illuminated. Then I toggled it off/on and it worked correctly. This was the first time I tried it today and it was after a reboot as well.

Side note for you trolls, Galaxy SIII apps (s-voice and more) are easily downloaded and installed through Sourcery tools built into the ROM. This ROM has great customization and the developers are very responsive to suggestions and concerns.

Found an issue I've seen in other ROMs as well. Google tracks is off on speed/distance calculations. The GPS is tracking me accurately but reports the speed incorrectly. I run at a 6 mph pace but on today's run of a route I've done many times it averaged me at 6.95 mph and says I went 5 miles when in fact I ran at 6 mph and went 4 miles. I did all the usual clear application data blah blah blah to no avail. (Bugless Beast works accurately) Any suggestions?

Really enjoying this rom. Excellent & speedy support from the devs. I requested the ability to change the glow for the zenyth keys and within a short time it became a new setting in tools>softkeys!

For the record i have tried all the jellybellys, aokp builds up to 8/15, xenon up to 8.0, vicious, bamf paradigms, cm10 kangs, liquidsmooth beta 1&2 and a couple others i cant think of the names right now.. Soon as i realized sourcery was on jb i tried it and now im a proud resident :) my bestest so far.

I've also flashed in lean kernel and so far it is very smooth and snappy with the interactive overclock set to max 1.3. Great battery life with this setup.

My dropbox has inverted G apps that you can use with this rom. Although my guess is eventually it could be baked into the rom.

How long, in time, did it take you to run the 4 miles?

No i mean this rom is REALLY amazing. I'm donating now. I can't believe how much you can do with it! I was talking to GranMasterB (former mod here, close friend of mine) and we were both wondering the same thing:

How do they cram all that stuff in there? (They must zip it twice.) ;)

Seriously, I love this... This is now, imo, the best jb rom for toro, for gadget/feature lovers, by FAR. It is also a dependable daily driver.

Just flashed this, was pleasantly surprised to see a couple of my boot animations in the list :)

I'm not seeing anything in my gallery (just completely black) and I've checked, there isn't a .nomedia file at the root of my sdcard.

Also, where are mods downloaded? I'm trying to install the alternative gallery to see if it fixes it, but I'm not able to find it in recovery after downloading it.

Add custom lockscreen targets and ill be set :)

Overall after flashing from Xenon 9.0 I am pleasantly surprised. With a rom with so many options I was expecting less than great battery life, but myself and the girlfriend were at Knotts Berry Farm and I still have 60% left even after playing with a bunch of the mods. May give LeanKernel a run too, just because it's all built in :)

Well done Team Sourcery!

PS: After tinkering around some more, I found out that after I changed the lockscreen circle icon, I wanted to go back to the stock unlock icon but it's not an option anywhere. Would it be possible to add that in the future? Also the cherry on top would be a Toyota and/or Hyundai logo lockscreen icon as well

Morning ok im going to bed :)

if your having no media shown check your push messages if you dont have them set to alert you. follow those insturctions with the no media fix and see if it works for you. I simulated the problem and following those instructions it worked for me after breaking it intentionally it restored with those instructions.


Viper thanks..Stock JB Lock ring now at top of Lock ring mods. as well as some more added.

3 new weather icon packs added.. (those are in the misc section for now)

We have some great magic coming. its a lot of changes and a lot of work is going into getting it all set up.

No ETA other than soon. And that it will be offered in the rom before it is released on the forums.

This will be a complete rom as there are over 50 changes to the rom. as we are making it as feature rich to last a little while so the themers can show you there magic. which they haven't been able to with the updates speeds we have been doing since release.

Thanks for using our rom. We hope you are having fun with it.

If they are older boot ani's. please email me at icsourcery@gmail.com and tell me which ones so we can get you credited. the old non xhdpi ones were gather over time dating back to the droid and i have no idea who made most of them :)
