[GUIDE][8/1] Jelly Bean Now! Resources & Discussion

If I had to wager a guess, Maps/Latitude/location services. Open up Maps, let it find you. Open up another GPS app as well. Wait for a lock (the GPS symbol has that filled in circle thing) then close both apps. You should be good to go.
Thanks dmmarck you the man!

Give a man a fish....

Convenience doesn't outweigh knowledge. I took the opportunity to make a flashable zip template for boot animations, as well as ones for the Nexus 7 and stock JB animations. ;) Thanks again to those who provided the files and answers.

2def can I just flash the boot animation ?

Only if it's in a flashable zip. If it's the zip you pulled out of the ROM then no, you just place it in /system/media or /data/local in your current system. It's actually easier than using a flashable zip. Especially if you push it there over adb :)

You can only flash the boot animation zip files if it says so in the post where you downloaded them. Some do, some don't. If you look in the zip file and all you see in the root directory are folders with names like "part1" and "part2," along with a "desc.txt" text file, you cannot flash that.

Edit: ^ What he said.

So I flashed Jelly Belly 1.9 last night, coming from Vicious v3. When I do a clean flash, it boots up perfectly. But once I reboot the phone, it bootloops at Google right at start up. Did it twice from a clean flash. Anyone know why this is happening?

Are you sure its bootlooping..? Might just be staying at the Google splash screen for a while, as has been known to happen in all these builds. Sometimes a boot can take a solid minute or more to get past that for me, and I've heard of others taking significantly longer.

I literally took a shower (15-20 minutes) on the second try, and it was still stuck.

Boot into recovery (pull the battery, replace, hold both vol's and power to bootloader, vol scroll to recovery, power), wipe cache and dalvik and try rebooting. Been known to clear up that issue..

That was actually the first thing I tried and it still wouldn't do it. I ended up going back to my backup again. I will try again (third times the charm?).
 
Re: [GUIDE][7/1] Jelly Bean Now! Resources & Discussion

So, I'm only Jelly Belly 1.8 and Trinity kernel JB14, and I guess battery life is slightly better than when I was on the kernel that came with JB1.8, but it still seems kinda bad. Previously, on AOKP, with franco kernel, by the end of the day, I'd still have between 50-60% left. Now, on JB, I'm usually down to the 30s by the end of the day. Maybe it's just Jelly Bean in general, I guess. Ah well.

Remember, this is experimental. Stuff like that will be worked out when we have source :).

Lol no, its our ported ROMs and "test" kernels, believe me. Don't expect any miracles out of these ports, but once the source code is out you will see plenty of improvements, battery life I'm sure being one :)
 
Re: [GUIDE][7/1] Jelly Bean Now! Resources & Discussion

Ah. I didn't realize the source code was important in optimizing battery life. I don't understand how any of that stuff works on the programming/ coding side, though, so... @_@

Anyway, thinking about flashing 2.1 right now, am I supposed to flash the 7/4 GAPPS with it, or stick with the 7/1 ones? They're both still linked, and I don't understand why the 7/4 one is labeled "proper".

I'm also looking at the Trinity kernel, should I just go with JB17, or is JB20 okay, even though it's listed as "alpha"?
 
My battery life has actually been better with JB. Maybe it's just my phone.
