[ROM][AOSP][JB][4.3][JSS15J] SuperNexus 3.0 - I777 - Build 1 [15-08-13]

[Faryaab]

The main idea behind SuperNexus is to provide Vanilla Android experience, just like on Google's Nexus devices, to non-nexus devices. SuperNexus is entirely built from Google's AOSP Source. A lot of improvements and optimizations 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).

Whoa, awesome to see a new build for this rom. 2.0 is all I've been using for the last few months. Look forward to giving 4.3 a shot!

 

[tri0xinn]

Of Course! I just did a fresh install of 2.0 milestone 1 yesterday and an hour customizing .. seems like battery was draining exceedingly fast with it though. Might as well install this before I get to comfortable. THANKS!!

Actually we do have CM10.2 official nightlies over at get.cm but they're quite buggy and have weird graphical glitches in certain applications.

Ooh exciting! I want to try it but I absolutely rely on bluetooth and it hasn't worked well in any aosp based ROM that I've tried for this phone.

Has anyone tested bluetooth in this ROM?

Thanks

Yep tested bluetooth with my bose earpiece that does both phone and media audio a2dp. Works great!
Battery life is doing great at this point... 2h 26m 43s on battery.. with 97 percent. Mostly standby but a little usage.. what I like is the phone's runs really cool with this rom. I was runnnig The last version/milestone 1 and phone seemed to be warm all the time and battery life was bad. So far so good with this rom.. running slicker than snot!

EDIT----- just noticed the cool screenshot selection when holding the power button.. here's my battery life thus far.

anybody else having root issues? i had it at first but after a few reboots i lost root privilege...also i was looking for the root access options in developer options and wanted to change it to apps/or apps and adb but i guess this rom doesn't have that option? only reason why i bring that up is because i had to do it with Helly Bean jb 4.3 to get back root privilege.

edit:

dirty flashed superNexus and gapps, got my root privilege back

Hi all! I returned to this rom after a couple of disappointing experiences elsewhere. I was excited to find this version. I have two issues I'm hoping someone knows how to fix.

1. I don't know/can't remember how to make the backlight for the hard keys stay on while the screen is on. I remember having "galaxy s2 settings" as a separate function/app? at one point where the delay could be set to never but I no longer have those settings (and can't figure out after searching where it even came from).

2. How to keep nfc turned off so it doesn't use battery. Checking,the option does not persist.

Can't flash it mate. Keeps giving me an error on CWM recovery when trying to install. Re-downloaded again, tried installing it from the internal SD card and still the same error.

I'm running milestone 1 one and battery life is pretty bad too! How did you flashed? I keep getting an error when trying to install on cwm.

Why the hell! does my phone suddenly think my pictures are all videos it can't play? So don't know what I could have done to cause this...
