oh! just noticed the deodexed version is out!

[ROM][OTA/AOSP][GSM]Android 4.2 JOP40C: Rooted Busybox Deodexed/Odexed (11/20/12)

my complaint so far on the odexed is that it's hella laggy =\

SkinnyPupp 11-20-2012 09:05 PM

Really I thought odexed would be faster since everything is all 'zipped up' and you should only use deodexed if you want to install skin mods, etc

i'm an android noob so i don't really know much. havent' tried deodexed yet, but so far i'm not enjoying 4.2... very laggy and i feel the battery is worse, although my usage is inconsistant

That should be correct. Odexed technically should be faster. I think revolution hd is Odexed for this reason.

Apparently it's been confirmed that it's done by design to facilitate the swipe to preview that looked glitchy on 4.1 (?)....
I forgot how it looked on 4.1 now but I never noticed it looked glitchy before.

the entire screen/layout does rotate. didn't think this was a "bug" since the entire swipe preview etc probably needs to rotate to accommodate this anyway.

Has anyone switched between 4.2 roms? I know that switching back to 4.1.2 is messed-up at the moment due to the changes to how the phone partitions your files on the internal sd. However I'm not sure if there will be any problems while switching between 4.2 roms. I read that some people ended up with sdcard/0/0/0 with another 0 being added for every flash of a new rom, but the information hasn't been consistent.

You should be fine as long as you use the newest cwm or twrp that have both been updated to support 4.2

CWM 6.0.1.8+ or TWRP.

you will still get one /0 folder but that's supposed to be there.

lol. my screen is pretty scratched up but meh, i only notice it when the screen is off and the sun reflects off and shows all of it. at the end of a day, it's a phone, and it's bound to happen :okay:

SkinnyPupp 11-21-2012 11:53 PM

yeah i only noticed it when the phone was off. only had it for a couple weeks though so that was kinda fast
I really don't want to use a screen protector but if it scratches this easily I might have to

From the Nexus series only the Nexus One and the Nexus 4 have Gorilla Glass. The others have curved glass which prevented them from using Gorilla Glass at the time.

I'm using a glass screen protector on top. Feels just like stock.

SkinnyPupp 11-22-2012 09:14 AM

It doesn't have to be Corning Gorilla Glass to be scratch proof or scratch resistant. Just decent quality.

On my HTC I had for 2 years, the screen is pretty much the only thing that isn't scratched :fuckthatshit:

Screen protectors never look as good as stock, it's impossible. But it might be worth it if the glass scratches really easily like this seems to

SkinnyPupp 11-23-2012 12:05 AM

fucking hell the screen protector I bought is crap. Capdase are usually good. :fuuuuu:

CRS, what did you type in the dial pad to "clear cache" and get my phone to prompt update again?

I actually looked into this a little bit when i found a hairline scratch on mine. Apparently theres an oleophobic coating on the glass and thats what scratches. Not the glass. But regardless it still scratches way too easy and ends up looking like shit

So that explains it. Ironically that coating is the main reason to not put a protector on it...

I really hate that I wasted $60 on this protector that I can't wait to rip off :fuuuuu:

Anyone have issue with the Nexus with win8? It seems that when I plug my phone in the computer it decets it but when I open the phone doesn't detects my pictures, songs or anything. Any fix on this?

Which rom? You're looking in DCIM?

Hey guys, I need help. I flashed Yakju 4.2 factory and now I can't connect to any network. I'm on mobilicity. Any ideas? I can see Mobolicity in my APN list but only "CDN Roaming", "302610", "302490", and "Telus" in the network list.

Mr.HappySilp 11-23-2012 10:57 PM

using stock ROM. When I was using wins7 I can just plug the phone is using USB and I can just drop songs onto the folders and copy the pictures I take. Now when I clock on the phone is empty. I know is not empty coz I got mp3s and pictures on the phone.

Googled your problem and came across this:
Can't connect to Mobilicty network - xda-developers

OP:

What I suggest is go to your dialer and hit *#*#4636#*#* which will take you to a test menu. Hit "Phone Information," scroll down, "Set preferred network type" to WCDMA.

Have you searched for an MP3 name to find out where it may have been hidden/moved to? Also, did you remember to change the setting on your phone to "mobile media device" or whatever it is that we're supposed to use instead of mass storage?
