Root [ROM] SuperROM B13 v4.2 {updated 6-8-14}

im trying to get used to this atom launcher lol

I change atom launcher so it looks like JB lol. Go into themes and select the normal looking icons. While you are there you may as well get rid of the ugly pale green borders. Change the atom bar to the google now bar by long-pressing it and dragging the search on it from the popup.

ok thanx dont need exchange lol just need email to pull aol emails :) thanx so much again and still awesome. also i downloaded a stock rooted rom looking for the email and i found email.apk and email.odex was i close?? and if i was do i install both or just the apk?? ....just curious lol

No problem ;) FYI, in the future it would be helpful if you post your questions in the relevant thread. For example, the question about email app missing is ROM related so in your case the SuperROM_B11 would be the place to post. It can be confusing but it helps new people with the same questions find the answers easier if they are in the appropriate thread :)

Thought I would write something.

Now, I've had the sequent since last year, and I've tried many roms, my most recent was the Awesome Android, but it always seemed to lack stability, no matter how many different governor combinations I've tried. I finally had some free time at work so I thought "Why not try another rom, maybe there would be a different one I haven't seen yet" (I had trouble finding them because the only ones i saw visibly on searches were Shinru's and PG's)

I came across this one yesterday and gave it a shot, hoping it would be something better.

This went beyond my expectations. All of my stuff runs smooth and fluid, no lags, no fc's nothing. I can run my 3d games and online mmo games flawlessly, it even utilizes my 3g better than the others did. I like the themes for atom (I purchased ADW EX years ago and was okay with that one, til now) and the xposed/other tweaks really come together. I haven't had to modify anything, other than adding that in as is, and putting in the notification widget for power toggles. (Love the flash light!) This is the best Rom I've ever used for the Sequent, and I don't think I'll need to use anything else for a long time. I've even gone as far as thinking I wont have to actually buy a new phone anymore, which I strongly considered doing for a while. (although I do wish my screen was bigger, even by just a bit XD)

Super, you have my thanks, and my props. Pure excellence here. :)


P.S: As far as improvements, I think the only thing that I've seen as an obstacle with this rom is, previous Roms I could pick up my WiFi signals well and connect to them even if the signal was weak, but with this one, it seems even my connections end up being avoided due to poor connection, even though I'll have at least 3 bars on it. I am curious if there is a way to bypass this and keep it from not connecting despite the signal strength. it's hard to use WiFi in my bedroom where I could before without any issues. does anyone else get this problem?

This seems to be an issue for some in b11 as you are not the first to mention it. Try going into System settings, wifi, press the phones options button, choose advanced, uncheck "Avoid no internet connections"

You will need to get into Qualcomm settings app and uncheck the box that says "Stay On Plugged".

edit: I used this app to make a shortcut for Qualcomm Settings (it's called com.android.qualcomm in the app under activities).

That worked to a degree. But if I miss a phone call the screen comes on and apparently does not go back off. I believe it only happens with missed calls and not notifications. The screen doesn't pop on with notifications.

Sorry man, that's the best I have right now. I am not experiencing those issues so it's hard to troubleshoot.

Hey guys, I am using this rom and I was trying to update google search through the playstore and I keep getting the message that "package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again". I was trying to figure out if there is a way to uninstall the previous copy since it comes with the rom or is there any way for me to get around this problem to update it to the new version?

That's odd, but yes. You can use es file explorer to delete /system/app/Velvet.apk and then install google search from the play store. You will need to enable r/w access in es file explorers Tools, root explorer settings menu.
