Boot Manager works well on the Galaxy Nexus. I got it back in my Tbolt days but the slow SD card made it impractical for me. Not as issue on the Galaxy Nexus.

^ ^^ ^^^ hahahaha.

I demur.

------ honestly tho, i gave axcross 2 days on V2 - not gonna lie there were issues.
But it looks promising.
And i am a diehard, flash nothing but AOKP roms kind of guy since ... 4 days after i rooted this joint.

Just looked over the aokp changelog -- looks somewhat substantial, and for those who dont want to reflash daily ... that's gotta be the way to go (except you guys who are CNA followers ... i havnet tried it ever so i cant say one way or another whether it's any better or worse than aokp .... but CNA users are LOYAL!

so .. i'll prolly try both, maybe snag boot manager and keep them both on call ... never needed it before bc id just nand and flash but .... its calling my name right now.

V2 is so yesterday...we be on V5 and did you look at that changelog?
Main one being : "BUILT FROM THE GROUND UP"
Other good one is: "Various Clean, Fixing, Etc (bit#h is Tight now)"

Did anyone read their phone when it was flashing? "Outty"

[davidnc]

What's the most you ever flashed in one day on the Nexus? Same question, any other phone?

In one day the most I flashed has just been 2 on the GN ,but downloaded 3.
I just didnt have time to flash the 3rd and now its updated so I need to get the newest version before I flash it haha.

The 2 I flashed was AOKP M4 and ICSourcery v1.0. Crossbreed V3was the one downloaded but now since its updated to V4 will have to redownload that version .Edit I mean I need to download V5

In the HTC incredible usually just flashed one a day ,thats when CM7 nightlies where being released everynight .When I had time I tried other Roms in between but always kept CM7 as my main Rom.

On the DX I flashed the least once I found a Rom that worked good I stuck with it awhile so I'd say once a month on the DX.But sometimes it took a few Rom flashes to find a Rom that worked real good .The DX however is currently in my sock drawer so its been retired

Haha DT is the only dev I know who makes his install script part of the fun..
"Let's get this mounted"


Lol one of his ones on the bionic went something like
"Are you SURE you trust me to do this?

Ok...

I must have missed that but do remember reading some from the past, I'm sure when v6 drops I'll have a second chance to read it.

[dmmarck]

2def - are you sure you're not going to make a Crossbreed topic? Peeps here need to know what's up.

Let me know; I can make it, but I can't guarantee up to the second updates with "running" 2 ROM threads.

Someone please make one... I don't have the time to manage it myself right now but could help out if anyone else plans on creating one.

I'll do it once I get back from doing a delivery.

Edit: it is finished. Will add more upon return. Feel free to make suggestions/change stuff. I was unsure about copying from RW, so i just linked to stuff.

2def - if this gets me in trouble with DT, I blame you.

[davey11]

I thought we were using this thread as the official crossbreed thread. hahaah

Seems this thing is shaking up the whole gn custom rom scene. That thread on wiki is wild...plus I really believe its the top rom right now.

Plus that DT guy has some style.

So posting crossbreed stuff in here a no no from now on? LOL

Nah, post in both! I think the DT thread here should be just that rom, plus a place to get it, troubleshoot, etc. We can certainly talk about anything root in here, and that includes the awesomeness that is Crossbreed.

And as a loyal CM follower, I completely agree with you.

You downloaded it from here on your phone directly? I usually just download on my Mac, drag it over, and go from there.

Yes lol

Did you flash V6 yet?

[2defmouze]

Yes lol

Did you flash V6 yet?

Haha dude I didn't even flash V5 yet

Lol it dropped as I was going out last night, since it was a rebuild I wanted to do a full wipe not a cheapy.. so no time to do it. Today had to work from 6am to 2pm then got home and passed out... now V6 is out and everyone I know is banging at the door to get me to come out already so I can't even flash that yet... haha hopefully tomorrow

i had a slew of problems iwth v2 but v6 is so far working well.

still gonna give plain old m4 a flash, probably this evening, but v6 could be a daily driver at this point.


Edit to ask a general question:

Anyone want to share their impressions of ICSorcery?

(lookin at you davidnc)

HaHa ok .
ICSorcery is what I would call a unique/different kinda rom .
Its use Apex Launcher as it default launcher and I have stuck with that just cause I heard alot of good things on the Apex Launcher .I am still learning the Apex launcher settings so actually learning the rom settings along with the launcher settings.
It has the typical notifications in the pull down bar as most roms do now where you can choose what widget buttons you want there (17 to choose from) I choose the typical bluetooth,wifi,Lte,Gps,doesnt have a torch toggle there yet.But it does have a search light icon in the app drawer for a flashlight.
There are other options you can select in the pull down bar that are similar to AOKP

It doesnt have the volume rocker wake up screen that I miss but hear its coming in furture updates.

Also as of right not you can select a batttery bar,battery percentage battery bar color,,, but you can not hide the battery icon even when you select the battery bar but again I hear thats coming in update.

You can center the clock or remove the clock as well as change colors of it .
You can set targets on the lockscreen up to 8 targets.
On the menu bar you have the back button ,home page,task,search with the option to add the menu button .But you can not remove any of these buttons just add the menu button.You can change the colors of these buttons though.
Typical power menu buttons to toggle on or off as you prefer.
Also you can add custom carrier name to the pulldown.
It has two things I havent figured out too haha an Altimeter and an pressureNet I dont know wth they do however
It has Quiet Hours .

Now for the interesting part in addition to the ICSorcery Modifications settings they have an ICSorcery Toolbox
In the toolbox you can change its broke down in sections.

Customize settings
Animations,boot animations fonts,kernels,soft key Mods(you can have them as the default icons on change them to show in text format all styles of text)
Device Manager
There is an App manager:,Extra Apps ,Push Notifications ,Mods,Rom Updates,Slide Exployer(which is a different kinda of file manager)
and theme manager
Tools section:
Dev tools,Overclocking Settings,Spare parts(we are know what that is ),Terminal Emulator,Testing Menu, and Wireless ADB
Tweaks Section:
block ads,cache cleaner,fix permissions,LCD Density,VMheap size(dont know what that is),WiFi scan Interval,Wipe Battery stats and zipalign applications.

I went in depth on the toolbox just to mention all the settings ,yup I covered all of those ha.

My overall impression was it was a fast smooth Rom while it didnt have a few of the common customizations I mentioned at the beginning I read that they are going to add those in updates.I have made a nand backup of this rom.I will be looking forward to how this Rom procedes .The only Roms I flashed on the Galaxy Nexus has been Bugless Beast,Bugless Beast Remix,CodeName Android,AOKP, and AOKP BlackIce,this Rom kinda stands out from those due to its toolbox settings.I have no complaints about this Rom it just takes getting use to .I guess thats all I can think of right now

[zero neck]

wow great review right there.

sounds pretty interesting actually - axiom has a similar feature (masturmods) where you can change the softkeys etc.

you're saying the search button is locked into the softkeys and can't be removed?? weird.

one other thing - did you notice if you can set hte volume keys to advance-retreat tracks in the music player while screen is off? that's one of my most used features on aokp.


Thanks alot for the review - that was incredibly helpful and all around just a great breakdown of icsorcery.
