[ROM][AOSP][4.4.2][KVT49L] SuperNexus 4.0 - I9500 - Beta


The main idea behind SuperNexus is to provide stock Android experience, just like how Google intended it to be. SuperNexus is entirely built from Google's AOSP source. A lot of improvements and optimisations have been done to the Google's Source Code to have the best possible Vanilla Android Experience. SuperNexus is very light too as there are no 3rd party apps (ZERO Bloatware).

Big thanks to the CyanogenMod Team and the OmniROM Team, without them this ROM was not possible and most of all thank you to Faryaab for making this source available.

Install xposed installer and gravity box, and config the buttons. Is working for me:


Open gravity box: navigation keys actions/home key/long-press action set show recent apps, and you'll have the recent apps on home button. Print:

Allright guys with the Recent App issue you will need to either install Gravity Box or find an Altenative Task Manager. For some that are unable to access the SD card please try Root Explorer and thanks for the feedback guys. This weekend i should be able to fix some stuff on the rom
