Test!

Okay guys... You guys greatly overwhelmed my Server when we launched. I don't have any money so I am using a free host.

That said, I would like to provide a fast alternative to Downloads in case the site ever goes down. Now bare with me with this suggestion...

What do you guys think about BitTorrent Sync? I know that it is a little complicated to set up; but once you set it up, you are done. So I am providing a Test for you guys.

If you have some time (and bandwidth), would you consider (re-)downloading to test the capacity? Instructions on how to do it are hidden below if you want to test:
  1. Download BitTorrent Sync
  2. Skip Setup and add a Sync Folder
  3. Select a Folder (maybe /sdcard/Vox)
  4. Enter this Secret into the Box: BTD2MQMNDQGGPKMMEZTIFC3SAD4SUQLTI
  5. DO NOT CHECK Automatic Sync as this will download all the files, you only want to download the latest for your device!
  6. Press Done and then open the folder in the app and download the Nexus 5 ROM, Nexus 7 ROM, and/or the QuickBoot APK.
  7. File will be in the folder you selected when you decide to flash (in this case /sdcard/Vox)

Thanks for all of your help and also thank you for downloading!

Sincerely,
Brandon Giesing, Founder of Team Voxive

Worked fine for me per your instructions downloaded app but ROM was taking up too long and I didn't want to wait 30 mins or so. My signal was LTE but weak at 1 bar

thanks! that may be expected at the beginning as BitTorrent downloads get faster when more people use it!

Well guys... I just lost all my data on my computer because of a partition error. I guess this project is dead.

Interesting thing is that my birthday isn't till the 15th LOL.

Things to expect are the latest PA changes and an updated Swipe to float that should fix the problems with Hover!

An Update

I know that I promised an update a while ago and have not (yet) delivered...

First, Swipe to Float is becoming a pain in my A**. Literally, I just can't get it to build with it in there...
Second, PA has abandoned the Settings Reorder on their Gerrit... Should I also?
Finally, in some better news, I am trying to add Native USB OTG support for Flo. PA has it enabled on Hammerhead but not flo even though it should work.

If anybody wants to help with the ROM (some code fixes and stuff as I don't know how to code), that would be great!

Stay tuned...

Okay guys, some good, bad, and more good news!

First the good, I have finally got my Nexus 7 fixed.

Now the bad... I am discontinuing the ROM.

Why, well here's the good news. AOSPA now includes most of the features. Let's look at the feature list.

  • USB-OTG Support: With AOSPA's release this week, my patch was merged for Flo.
  • Settings Reorder: Doesn't really add any extra functionality.
  • QuickBoot: Problematic.
  • PA features work with MultiUser on Tablets: Merged.

In addition to that... This release never got the new recents or DSB.

What about the apps we removed?
  • Movie Studio
  • Gallery
  • Camera
  • Browser
  • All Live Wallpapers
  • Extra Daydreams

Well about a week ago, I released Vox Remover. It is a flashable ZIP based on the GApps Remover. It removes all those apps plus more and can be used with any ROM! You can find it here.

While I realized that some of you liked the quickboot feature, it's is just easier to do this.

Thank you guys for the support and go download the latest AOSPA and Vox Remover zips to get the experience.
