[ROM] (OFFICIAL) XYLON 4.2.1 (crespo) DISCONTINUED

[C4SCA]

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. The team is constantly working on making things better for the users and are happy to do so. We, the team, believe that for one to experience the pure taste of Android, he/she should be provided with something which is fast, intuitive and fluid – That’s where we come in – To provide you that. Xylon started as a part of the Fruits & Veggies (FNV) project, a community ROM for the Galaxy Nexus and is now set up individually but it’s roots are based on FNV. remicks, the founder of the FNV – inspired me to build something that would make users love of what they use daily.

P.S This ROM is fully based on FNV though. ​

Common Daily 'speedy' features.

A thousand better than having a fan page.

DOWNLOAD ROM CRESPO : http://goo.im/devs/daXmax/xylon/crespo

recommended kernels (download CM versions) :
- marmite (advised by me, USE SMARTASSV2 governor) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1719775
- matr1x http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1361477



Installation process (for smoothness!!!):

"Has for some bugs (use twrp recovery),wipe data, cache, dalvik, system, flash rom and gapps, boot up, dont set up, reboot to recovery, flash kernel and wipe cache and dalvik, boot up, wait 2min, set up and let install all apps, let it settle for 5min and finally reboot and start opening the apps and loging in to your accounts."



OFFICIAL ROM DEV SEEMS TO HAVE STOPPED, for more updates follow this new thread with some unnofficial, yet, fully working builds (kinda of, remember this is highly experimental):

Something is wrong with this build (xylon_crespo_012_12-19-2012.zip). I've made clean install twice, and i can't finish even the initial setup, because of the lag (huge lag). It takes more than 10 seconds to switch between languages. I don't know may be it's me, but i change my rom's almost every week, and I've never seen anything like this. Otherwise the first release ( the one from the old thread ) was more than good and smooth, the only problem that I have with it, was the youtube app / youtube player in the browser.

Flashed different kernel, smooth as butter now. Aside from the already stated issues here and on G+, I've not found anything buggy. Awesome rom.

I believe that refers to custom notification background.

I haven't delved into that yet, but i recommend you reboot into recovery(when you can), and install Marmite kernel.

Your supposed to flash the rom first then flash the kernel.
