[Verizon] [ROM][CWM][LTE] ICL53F Deodexed Rooted Busyboxed + Softkeys + APM/AB MODS (12/17/2011)

so can someone explain what exactly this is Deodexed Framework and System Apps All APKs Zipaligned and Busybox what are the benefits of this rom? besides the soft button mod

also can this be installed in combination with soft mod AND that nova launcher?

deodexed just means it's easier to apply mods such as the softkeys and apm.

yes, you can apply multiple mods, such as nova launcher.



Also, I updated the OP with a new version, fb is fixed, added insecure boot.img for privileged commands.

First of all, you are the man FAB! Thank you for everything you do!

One question, I'm running your advanced power menu and now when I hold the power button to bring up the menu, it reboots the phone instead of showing the popup. Any suggestions?

Running the current revo rom and Nitroz' black theme. Thanks!

The theme probably wasn't built with my framework-res, so it will not support the APM.

Must be on a deodexed ROM to install! Install after initial boot!

Search button, hidden menu buttons on both sides (exposed when apps call for them)

*flash this, no need to wipe anything

I'm on a deodex'd ROM (Universal HD), and flashed the softkeys mod from CWM recovery, didn't wipe anything, and when it rebooted the system, the search key was there but non-functional. I clicked into the web browser and my phone rebooted.

Anyone else have this problem?

I just had a random reboot, haven't noticed any before today... but it boots kinda quick, so I may have missed one earlier;

I had that happen to me last night. And it must have been the same thing, because the phone rebooted in about half the time. Really strange.

I haven't noticed anything else not working.

Well, that's not exactly true. When I'm in a Google Plus hangout, I cannot leave it. No matter how many different ways I exit, I don't actually leave the hangout until I reboot my phone. Not sure if this is a Google issue or a ROM issue.

Um, was I supposed to install the Rom before installing teh softkey mod? I only did softkeymod and now I dont have the softkeys or noticification bar WTF???? help

I, too, f'd something up and have no soft keys or notification bar. What was the fix for this???? I am kinda freakin out, wanna play with my GNex, but I have to restart it everytime I wanna back up. I have done factory data reset probably 15 times. NO AVAIL. PLEASE HELP ME.

I'm sure that some more savvy folks have more elegant solutions, but you can fix that by using fastboot on your PC to restore the factory ROM and start over. Definitely a good idea to make a backup in Clockwork Recovery before applying mods.

Best of luck to you.
