Mods:

Chief's Dropbox Thanks Chief

2. Clean wipe is recommended by iceandfire (the dev) when flashing v9.0 (8/14).
2. Clean wipe is recommended by iceandfire (the dev) when flashing RC3 (12/8).

Disclaimer:

As always, read up and check md5's before flashing. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK. And enjoy!

Yay I was hoping, and thinking, you would start this

This is the best JB rom for the GN (in my opinion as well )

I wanted the first post be impartial, but seriously, this ROM is rockin. It's super stable and it gets more AOKP-like mods with every update. A solid daily driver for those waiting for a stable AOKP, or want something as stable as AOKP.

I've been running it for almost 4 days now. 2 with stock kernel and 2 with Franco r223. It is the smoothest experience I've ever had on the GN, another leap forward over the switch from ICS to JB. I'm really digging Apex for the first time ever and I've tried it several times in the past with ICS. My battery life on both stock and Franco is as good as its ever been.

What a joy to own this phone and keep improving the software. I keep thinking it has to peak at some point, but it keeps getting better, faster, smoother!

I was wondering... is there a mod for this that will give you more icons on the nav bar? I just can't handle the stock three. I looked but didn't find anything, otherwise I'd stay on it. I just didn't see any themes or mods for this.

This ROM runs smooth but I love full screen. Are there any mods to remove the nav bar totally?

There are no flashable mods for this ROM atm that I am aware of. Since Apex is built in I have gestures that perform any needed Nav bar soft key functions. Plus remember you have the built in search by long pressing the home soft key.

Very new to this. Can you explain (like you're talking to child, haha) what wipe clean means? I understand dirty means adding without taking something else away or adding right on top of and clean is the opposite but can you tell me how to wipe clean? Thank you as always.

I think you are referring to the swagger toggle. Just like in aokp its kind of a joke. It doesn't do anything, just there for giggles. They say if you have to ask what it is then you must not have it that is the running joke they say.

That is subjective so you'll have to try it and see if it is better for you

Alright jbdan, I am taking your advice and flashing this rom. Been holding off on all jb roms until all the kinks got worked out and it sounds like this one is stable with cool features built in. Looking forward to some jelly bean goodness!!

Been running Jelly Belly 3.7 for a few days now, just missing all that customization stuff. Does this ROM have notification toggles similar to AOKP? Doesn't explicitly state it in the features... if so, anyone have a screen shot??

Toro= Verizon version.

I had trouble with sync and since all my contacts are on my work Exchange acct, I was worried, but finally got it to work.

It'll do until AOKP is more stable.

Dirty = installing without clearing the data partition (you'd lose all your settings and installed apps)

Wiping (or formatting) caches refers to deleting the temp files Android uses.

So, if coming from a different rom (which I assume your are), you'd need to

  1. have unlocked your bootloader and rooted
  2. downloaded the rom and gApps (Google Apps)
  3. (optional) backup your apps with Titanium Backup
  4. boot into recovery
  5. backup your current rom
  6. wipe (format) cache partition
  7. wipe Dalvik cache (under advanced menu)
  8. install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard, then select your rom
  9. install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard, then select your gApps file
  10. reboot
  11. sign in with your wifi credentials
  12. sign in with your google acct
  13. open Play Store and reinstall your apps (or install Titanium and restore your apps).

Yes it has the toggles. Looks exactly like aokp. Everything but a brightness toggle but there is a little surprise. If you turn off screen auto brightness you can slide your finger across the notification bar up top and control brightness that way. It's worlds better than it was in ICS on aokp.

Question: You guys got me fully convinced enough to install this app, but, when I did, my phone had all of my apps and settings still stored. How would that be? I wiped and did like a normal ROM. I'm confused. The phone is working fine, has the correct version, and all of that. Only problem I've noticed so far is my Google Calendar keeps FC'ing. Suggestions or comments?

Thanks!

Someone posted a working battery % mod for Xenon last night, but it's now been taken down. Don't know why and his link no longer works...

I haven't seen any flashable mods for this ROM at all, it's a sleeper rom so far.

Welcome to AF btw

WHat ROM did you come from? You did not do a full wipe if everything was intact after flashing...if it all works then great your good to go. Although this could be why your calender is not working. Did you flash the gapps pkg that the developer recommends? Have you tried going into your app manager and wipe data on the calender app?

There is 1 working flashable battery mod that I know of works for xenon hd. It was posted by a member in rootzwiki in the xenon hd thread. Its a 2 digit counter style batt. And when the phone is charging it will read CH. It is in ics blue color. Only thing, its subjective, but i found it to be an eye sore. Its font is too big (larger than the clock font)

Im assuming they will build in battery mods just like aokp sometime in a near future update.
You could dl power controls app from the market and have your battery percent displayed in the drop down notification bar

I tested Xenon by flashing other circle battery mods and softkeys and either sent me into a bootloop.

Im assuming they will build in battery mods just like aokp sometime in a near future update.
You could dl power controls app from the market and have your battery percent displayed in the drop down notification bar
The digital battery ...it is HUGE!

Thanks

Don't be flashing any mods for any of these new roms, unless the mod is designed for that rom.

I hope you created a recovery backup before flashing it.

BTW, the fix is to reflash your rom.

Okay okay, you guys convinced me... I'm flashing Xenon right now!

I just need more customization options than Jake is giving me with bare-bones stock Jelly Belly. I hope to explore all the options the ROM gives me.

Rebooting now...

So far so good!! Everything is running smoothly! I am trying trinity kernel which is good except for the preset color which is making the whites look bluish and it is driving me crazy. I don't think there is any way to change it either. Gonna flash Franco kernel and see what that's like. Still trying to play around and figure out all the new jellybean features.

Trinity makes my phone look like the girl who ate the willy wonka gum and turned into a giant blueberry!

Anyways you can change the colors with his paid app.

I've been running franco r223 with xenon and love it underclocked to 1036MHz interactive gov. The stock kernel that comes with xenon (stock from Google) is excellent as well, I just like custom colors with the franco app.

jbdan, you really know how to put a bug in someone's ear. Here Chief is flashing xenonhd and I thought he would stick with Jelly Belly. I had been thinking about it since you first posted it...now that the Jelly Belly wall is crumbling, I have no choice. Thanks! Flashing in 5...4...3...2...1.5...1...

Just downloaded r223 from Franco's app. Wiped cache and dalvik, then flashed. I got a "could not install (bad)" error and the android on his back with the red exclamation. Just rebooted and now it's optimizing apps (b/c the cache wipe).

I looked around and couldn't find anywhere that had md5's. Can you copy paste your r223 md5 so I can double check them?

Thanks.

This is going to be my jump into JB (apropos since I'm gonna say its JBDan's fault ). Do I need to do the boot loader flash ?

OK, you guys have been really talking this ROM up and almost have me to the point of trying it. No circle battery mod and no mod's at all right now. Don't know if I like that.

I know Apex Launcher comes built in, but does Nova work? I really like the restore feature in Nova and prefer it right now over other launchers.

Also, are there any screen shots of this ROM? What's different/better than Jelly Belly?

Update: Found the screen shots on the rootzwiki op.

One quick question for all you serial flashers who know the answer:

SuperSU is prompting me to update in Play.

Is that a reasonably safe thing to do?

EDIT: BB, it's not necessary to flash the JB Bootloader, but it sure would be helpful if you did

Ok, coming from JellyBelly 3.6 which worked really well for me, except the MMS over wifi issue, which really wasn't a big deal for me.

Went on XenonHD on Sat. It is really nice. Like the tweaks, the addition of the toggles is a welcome addition (although the Data toggle seems to be broken). I also like the T9 dialer integration among a bunch of other tweaks. Worth trying.

I did not flash the JB bootloader (for any of the JB Roms and I have tried most of them by now).

I also got the SuperSU update request and did it. No ill-effects I can see. I think you should be fine.

I couldn't get Nova Launcher to work w/ XenonHD but I saw in another forum that someone had used it.

Chief,

I to just recently updated my SuperSU and no problems here.

What gapps are you guys running with this ROM? I noticed on his downloads he still has 7-15. I've been running 7-18 and didn't know if that would matter on this ROM or not.
