How do you like it compared to manhattan rom?

Manhattan was nice, had battery saving options too, quick, smooth rom. But it didn't feel/look too different from Stock. I was trying to get something new and different from my phone as I get bored very easily, Kang provided me with that.

+1 for AOKP.
Awesome ROM. So customizable. Tried all the other 4.0.3 roms but keep coming back to this one.
I used Franco kernel with it for a while but I don't find it gives me better battery life even with the hotplugs for deactivating one of the cpus when sleeping.

Where may i find this battery saving option?

Man. You guys are making me want to switch to kang now Lol.

Anyone else using the Team Kang rom have an issue where it takes an awfully long time for your phone to reconnect to 3G? (This is with the power saving option on and 3G off when screen is off)

Or sometimes the phone says its connected to the 3G network but you aren't actually "connected" and have to wait a good 2-3 minutes before you actually are?

from what i saw mine was on 4.0.1.
got the phone from fido before i cancelled the contract and im planning to use on wind.
i'll try kang. thanks!

hey galaxy nexus users, any of you coming from the nexus s?
if so, you know that the nexus s takes forever to charge.
has this been fixed with the galaxy nexus?
iphones charge super quick even via usb

I'm pretty sure it has little to do with the phone. If you want it to charge fast get the BlackBerry PlayBook High Capacity Wall Charger. It is rated at 1.8amp vs regular chargers that are under 1amp.

u sure about that?
i used the same charger as i used to use for my blackberry and had different results.

unit I'll do a small test for you when i get home tonight :)

Are there any tweaks where you can make the volume button take pictures? Or one where if you tap the status bar, it'll jump u back to the top of the page?

I weighing the pros and cons of switching from an iPhone 4 to a Nexus but I can't decide. :(

There's good and bad to both phones ugh.

I know for camera zoom fx App it lets you choose ways to take pictures.
there's an option for using the volume buttons

But is there a tweak to just the native camera app rather than downloading a separate app altogether?

Yam is right, Camera Zoom does have the ability to customize your hardware buttons to be used for your camera as well as a voice-activation option so you can speak your commands. But, I found the interface to be pretty shitty and it was kinda simple compared to even the stock camera.

P.S: This ROM looks like it has potential. ULTIMATE customization!

The blackberry charger isn't high amperage. The Playbook charger specifically has higher amps.

The only way that would happen is if someone took apart the camera app and recoded it to volume. So most likely not gonna happen.

^ actually latest manhattan rom has that mod available :)

are there any roms out there that can do transparent softkeys?

Lol. I stand corrected then :)

I've been debating switching to android from iphone 4 for a month now but I can't decide. There's good and bad to both phones ugh. Wish I can combine the best of both phones.

Damn first world problems.

Well what do you need from your phone? Do you like to tinker with it and make it your own? Or do you just need it to work? IMO iPhone users tend to just need a phone that works. My buddy just switched from a Droid to an iPhone but he just needs it for a phone, he never customized his Droid

Actually, the iPhone is more customizable (once jailbroken) than you think. I, personally do not like to tweak it too much but I have friends who have like lock-pattern lock screen, totally different looking interface and animations, etc.

I usually TRY to keep the amount of tweaks I have on a phone to a minimum as there are usually conflicting problems when you have too many.

Because I'm on the fence, 50/50 between the two phones, it's really the little things that sway me to either side.

iPhone pros:
- lock screen message previews and ability to unlock directly to that app
- BiteSMS is an awesome quick reply jailbreak app for messaging
- I might have to take a closer look at this, but I notice that the YouTube app on the iPhone has the best quality. even when compared to the mobile site on the same phone the sharpness differences is quite noticeable. Tried my friends Nexus and it doesn't seem as sharp despite being true HD.
- App store nuff said
- Can unlock DIRECTLY to the camera app even when there is a lock feature in place. ICS only lets you do this when you don't have a lock pattern.
- Take picture with volume button
- Tap status bat to jump to top

Galaxy Nexus pros:
- I LOVE the sharing feature on this phone and how you can share anything in any app to any other app. It doesn't have to be a native share feature like it is on the iPhone
- The YouTube app is much nicer. I use youtube on my phone a lot. Only thing that's missing is top comments.
- bigger screen mmmmmm
- widgets nuff said
- I use more google stuff than I do Apple.
- No shitty iTunes

How many of the iPhone pro's that I listed are on the android in terms of tweaks?

Most of us have owned or still do own the iPhone 4. Mine has been jailbroken since Day 1 and I wouldn't have used this phone without the jailbreak. It's a must in my opinion but that all depends on the user's needs I guess. Keep in mind, I've had almost every iPhone (except for the iPhone 4s) and sometimes have owned multiple phones of the same model...They ALL became sluggish, slow and finicky when I started doing customizations.

And ALL those features are in Android...The only difference is you don't have to add repositories and codes to get these simple customizations and you don't sacrifice the phone's performance.

You mean in the modded versions of Android right? Because I know those features aren't available in the stock ICS.

I made some comments to your pros.
