Please PM me if you want to take over building for this ROM. I simply do not have time anymore to maintain this ROM anymore.

About Xylon

Xylon is fully transformed distribution for Android Devices.
It is designed to take full advantage of the device’s hardware and to provide the user pure Android experience.
A ROM does everything that you need. It has all the best picks from the other Android Community project.
To express a different kind from AOKP, SlimRoms, CyanogenMod and ParanoidAndroid.
Xylon is also about smooth and technically well-cut designed ROM.
As we see here, we have all the top-notch features in before the other ‘kangers’ started to get in the play.
We’re Xylon. We’re your drugs.​
Note

I, pinoyz, am just the maintainer for this rom and will try to have builds up every Wednesday or Thursday.
I am not the main developer and I don't add or change features.
So please do not pm me and request new features please. Thanks.
Please read everything before you download or post anything! It is quite annoying when people ask questions when it is stated in this original post!

Do these gapps contain email as well? I've been using another one but lately it keeps telling me email can't login or something. Hoping to try some new gapps with email

i wish when new features are added, notably ones in navbar this time, the ways to restore back to the original / the ability to turn off those features be added.

i am not saying i am not grateful about how you are improving but there are just a few things that I wish to make more subtle. :)

So I tried these gapps and noticed email was in it. Only thing not in it is wallet and the one in the market isn't working. Is there another one that works with this ROM?

Hey!

Thanks for the new thread and the great rom! Can you add flashing instructions for other rom and update instructions from xylon? I never know what I should flash, gapps or not, cache dalvik and when... Thanks!

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Prequisites: Unlocked bootloader, custom recovery (clockwork or twrp. i recommend twrp)

Coming from other ROM:
1. Download ROM, Gapps, Kernel (Optional)
2. Back up your phone's apps/data using backup app such as Titanium Backup
3. Put it on your phone's internal storage.
4. Boot into recovery mode
5. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, Factory Settings
6. Flash ROM
7. Flash Gapps
8. Flash Kernel (Optional).
9. Boot

Same rom upgrading:
1. same thing as before but #2 and #5 is optional (only wipe dalvik and cache. do not wipe factory settings)

not that hard.

Thanks!

Another question, looking at the features. The 2g toggle first disconnect the phone from network (like airplane mode). Is this normal?
