[Verizon] [ROM] [JB 4.2] XenonHD Stable-11.1 (7/3/13)

[jbdan]

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!!

Gl! Hope you enjoy it

Does the power menu and circle battery mod work for this ROM?

I don't think any of the mods built for other ROMs are confirmed to work on this ROM yet. If you want, Nandroid and give it a hot, then report back!

Does not work.

Is there one spot for mods for this ROM?

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

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

The digital battery ...it is HUGE!

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...

 

[bcote311]

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.

Xenon is pretty sweet I think you'll like it. Don't fix permissions no need here! =)

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.

Oh NOW he tells me...

Too late!

 

[CopperWires]

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 ?

 

[ymDroid]

Is the WiFi JB fix corrected in Xenon, do I still flash that separately.

 

[darkcyber]

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.

 

[The_Chief]

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

 

[SecondShot]

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.
