RootBox is built straight from RootBox sources and always carries a very light installation with no extra/useless apps. This means, you can enjoy a pure Android experience combined with AOKP,CM, and Paranoid Android features; with some CM cherry-picks. Keep in mind Jelly Bean is only at the beginning stage of development and there will be minor bugs, but this ROM is working well enough to be called a daily driver. Thanks for flashing and please report any issues, logs, complaints, wanted additions, or anything within reason ( while following XDA rules)... Enjoy

please note you must either have taken the ota to jb or used the appropriate teeny bin or have successfully flashed the latest cm10.1 or one of the many aosp roms available for our phone...and as always make a backup of your current configuratin before trying anything

Installation
Fresh/new install:

* download rom and gapps to the root of your sd card (sdcard0)
* reboot to twrp
* factory reset
* wipe system
* wipe cache
* wipe d. cache
* flash rom
* flash gapps
* reboot phone

Updating/dirty flash method: ONLY if already using my rootbox

Download ROM and gapps onto the root of your sdcard (sdcard0)

Wipe cache
Wipe dalvick cache

(IMO) for optimal results after dirty flash and it reboots, go back to recovery and fix permissions (JMO)


Known Issues
these "fixes" are only necessary if you are experiencing problems

if experiencing mms issues try this:

MMS confirmed working for a few in IRC.. send receive should work now if you're lucky and can follow directions.

1. Delete telephony.db located at /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db ...Open ES File Explorer > Press the menu button > Settings > Scroll to the bottom > Make sure "Root Explorer" is checked > Click "OK" > navigate to the directory starting from "/" (you could prob do this with the CM file explorer too)

2. Delete messaging Data...From home screen > Press menu button > Manage Apps > "All" tab > Find Messaging > Press "Clear data" button

3. Reboot. Clear cache if you want.

GPS issues:
go back to stock rom or a stock based rom ( a back up is sufficient )
Get a GPS lock and keep it for a few minutes ( make certain you are getting a lock from GPS and not your network or WiFi )
Flash back to ROOTBOX
That should solve any GPS problems

Battery drain issues:
if your experiencing major battery drain there are a few things you can try i will list a few here....
turn wifi, gps, bluetotth, and sync off when not using it
turn auto-brightness off and adjust it to your liking
lower sceen time-out to 15 or 30 seconds
try installing an app like greenify or batteryguru that will shut down apps that are running in the background
try changing your govenor from performance to powersave with an app like faux enhancement or trickstermod
try lowering your max freq. from 15+ to something a little lower
turn things like daydream off if you dont use it
try using wifi more often if able 3g/mobile data will suck the battery dry in no time
try looking in task manager to see if you have rouge apps hanging out.. if you do stop them
Try flashing smoocha kernel can find it in the android development section for this phone

these in no way are guaranteed to get you more life but they are a start to getting better life..hell it cant hurt only make it better

Camera focus issues:
Double tap instead of single tap
Switch to a different mode then back..(switch to HDR then back, switch to panorama then back)
Try the script method posted below
Try a third party camera app
Or try this: a quick hack work-around to anyone who has auto-focus working but only for the 1st app launch.

using smanager
* Install and launch smanager
* Make a new script with this in it

killall mm-qcamera-daemon
killall com.android.gallery3d
am force-stop os.tools.scriptmanager
am start -n com.android.gallery3d/com.android.camera.CameraLauncher

* Click on the script. Set it as "favorite" and highlight "SU". Save
* Add a shortcut on launcher. Select SMShortcuts.
* Select Add one script shortcut. Pick your script. Change the name/image to whatever you want.
* Hit OK and profit.

Need to thank sputnikk23 & prowlingfox for this workaround

or try with tasker method

One thing I did a bit differently that might help others out is use Tasker for the camera script instead. I didn't want to have to deal with shortcuts, but instead wanted all the requests for camera, to actually use the camera program.

To do this, In Tasker:
Create a new Task called "Load Camera".
Click the + sign.
Click on Script.
Click on Run Shell.
Paste the following into the Command section (note that the first line is missing - that's on purpose):
Code:
killall com.android.gallery3d
am force-stop os.tools.scriptmanager
am start -n com.android.gallery3d/com.android.camera.CameraLauncher

Check the box next to Use Root - not sure if this is needed or not, but it works fine if it's checked.
Click the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen to accept the changes for the shell command.
Click the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen again to accept the changes to the Task.
Click on the Profiles tab.
Click on the + sign.
I called my Profile "Load Camera"
Click on "Application".
Select Camera.
Click on the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen to accept the selection.
Click on the task that you created in the first steps to tie the profile to the task.
Enjoy....
Give it a shot and let me know if it doesn't work for you, but it works just great for me.

What GApps did you use? Does it matter?

Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I used the banks minimal but as long as your using a current 4.2.2 gapps I think you'll be good... But I'm not a frequent rootbox user so whatever gapps people were using in rlasalle'$ thread should apply here... today is actually the longest I've been on rb

I was on RB before switching to your AOKP.... Now I gotta decide whether or not to switch back. Since I'm running a fresh 6/29 AOKP build, I may just backup and flash RB. Then I have both! YAY!

I know this issue has been said, but want to put it out there since this is a new thread. I still have the camera image stretched when not on HDR mode. Flashed RB w/Banks minimal.

Yeah that's an issue that's known and I believe the gang is working on it... you can more or less conclude that this ROM will have all of the same bugs that all of our aosp ROMs have.... We are all building from teamlgog source... Except for the kernel in this rom..... which syn is a listed member in teamlgog's Github so in a way it's still using their source for that as well..... In short it is being looked into though I can't exactly speak for them since I'm not a member... but if anything gets fixed it will be included

Has anyone encountered no LED and no hardware key backlight? I can seem to get them working. Check MD5 on the file and it checks out. Full wipe before install. Aside from that Ioving this ROM.

No go on led light, and soft keys are on... Prefer them off but can't remember how to disable.
