[ROM][4.0.4][Crespo4G] Apex v1.1.3: Features Keep Pilin' On! (5/13/12)

---

There's a severe issue with the dialer in 1.1.3, thread has been reverted to 1.1.2 for the time being

This is a crespo4g build of my maguro ROM found here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1399238

Happy Mother's Day!

This is a generally stock ROM with mods chosen to add to functionality without detracting from the Ice Cream Sandwich experience that Google envisioned. I built this ROM from AOSP, merged in mods from CM9, AOKP, Gummy, RootzBoat, and other ROMS, to create what I feel is a perfect mixture of stock feel and helpful customizations.

I had a lot of fun building, testing, and running this ROM. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Features

• Built from AOSP source code - 4.0.4 IMM76I base
• Stock look and feel with useful mods
• Device specific control app (Galaxy Nexus Parts, Crespo Parts, etc) for low level adjustments
• Customizeable Lockscreen (2-5 targets, custom targets, custom icons)
• Customizeable Notification Pulldown Widgets
• Customizeable NavBar w/ tutorial
• Customizeable batteries (%, circle, bar, miui bar)

• Advanced sound settings: quite hours, expanded volume control, unlink ringtone & notifications
• T9 Predictive (smart) dialer w/ advanced settings
• Built in CPU Perfomance Settings w/ voltage control
• Facebook sync enabled
• Quick unlock (toggleable, for PIN and Password lockscreens)
• 3.0.31 CyanogenMod Kernel
• Advanced Power Menu w/ reboot and screenshot options
• Rooted and busybox preinstalled
• All apks deodexed/zipaligned/optimized

Requirements

• Sprint Nexus S 4G
• Clockwork Recovery

Screenshots









Instructions

• Wipe data and cache! Just wipe cache and dalvik if coming from Apex 1.1.x
• Flash ROM file
• Flash GAPPs file immediately afterwards, prior to rebooting (also if you are updating!).
• Reboot
• Profit

Quirks

• Battery types sometimes don't change (just toggle back and forth until it does)
• MIUI battery bar requires a screen toggle (on/off) to update after an orientation change
• Yes, lockscreen and navbar settings SHOULD be under UI Customization, but I am lazy and cut some corners. Shh!

Things to be aware of

• If Facebook picture sync is not working after contacts have synced, please clear the application cache and data, sign in again, and it will sync.
• Please allow the phone some time to sync initially (calendar, picasa, bookmarks, etc.)
• If market auto restore gets stuck, a reboot should fix it

oh snaps...

one question -- does this ROM support 4G when using the wi-fi tether mode?

i love the AOSP v43 but hate that it switches back to 3G whenever i use the tether.

thanks!

This looks great. I'll give it a shot tomorrow
