[Verizon] [ROM]JDX (formerly Jelly Belly) AOSP+ - v15 (7/28)

This morning I did a full wipe and flashed 3.1 and the latest GApps. Everything is working fine and I had no problems at all. I have not tried face unlock or tethering as I really don't use them. I agree with Chief, not really any different from what 2.5 was. I'm not sure if it's placebo or not but it seems like my signal strength is better. I have no numbers to back that up, just bars. But, I do have peace of mind that I'm on a genuine AOSP ROM instead of a cooked rip from a GSM phone.

Meant to comment on this earlier but forgot. Funny you mention the signal strength. I've seen it repeated a few times, enough to make me think it might not be just coincidence. May be a reality as much as I don't understand how it could be. I mean could binaries from the VZ really make a difference in this respect? Or is it just reporting variance? idk, intriguing though. Thanks for reporting
 
Signal seems better and call quality seems better as well. I'm not ready to say that with full confidence but I've had great calls in areas I've formerly experienced connectivity issues up to and including dropping calls altogether. Just sayin.
 
I finally broke down and created an account at Rootzwiki. Too many times I have screamed at the screen, unable to type something :p

Have questions in on the issues of the ROM, will report here.
 
Here's an oddball question for you guys - I had sworn off rooting my phone for some time, until the Jelly Bean ROM's started popping up. My phone had the 4.02 system and for some reason, would never allow me to install the 4.04 updates that Verizon was pushing OTA. The phone continued to have the issues associated with pre-4.04 (radio handling, slow screen rotation, typing lag) up until the point I rooted it. I installed the Vicious V3 Jelly Bean ROM and have been loving the speed and responsiveness, especially with the Google voice searches and speach to text. I am still having radio reception and 3g/4g handoff issues. Do the new Jelly Bean ROMS have the radio updates? Do I need to install the 4.04 radios separately and if so, how do I do it?

I know that at this point there are many different Jelly Bean ROMs available, but I'm still wondering what to do about the radio situation. If I never got the 4.01 IMM76K update before rooting and installing a Jelly Bean ROM, does that mean my radios are the same as when I bought my Nexus with 4.02 back in December?
 
Went Clean On 3.0 And No Mods. Will nandroid Back To aokp to See If It's a Hardware Problem or Not.
Yeah let us know. Did it happen on 3.0 and 3.1 or just 3.0? So you went clean from aokp straight to JB jelly belly 3.0 with a clean wipe prior top flashing JB right

Dang I meant to reply to this earlier and the thread was moving so fast I missed it, I apologize. If you go to settings> about phone> can you either post a screenshot of that or tell me what it says (everything) under "Baseband version"? Will try to help you :)

The JB roms do not have radios you're still on the the radio that you last accepted as an OTA from VZW.
 
Wow, this thread is moving as fast as another thread I have fond memories of :p... Still no sign of Jelly Belly being stable enough for me...

I don't understand that. I'm on 2.5 still and I haven't seen anything unstable at all. It has been 100% rock solid...all the versions I used.

I've never done a screenshot, let alone attached one. If it isn't working, it says my Baseband version is:

l515.09 V.EK05 / l515.EK02

Well you did it well done!

You are on 4.0.2 radios presently. You can flash the newest radios here, they are named: 4.0.4 (IMM76K) OFFICIAL radio package (from official 4.0.4 factory image)
CDMA Radio Version - FC04
LTE Radio Version- FC05

Radio flashes take some time so be patient. Flash in recovery no wiping needed. Don't use ROM Manager to automate the flash, boot into recovery manually and manually flash the radio.

i Ran All of The Previous jellbelly roms Below 3.0 With No Issues. Clean wiped Prior To 3.0.

Wow, you've been a huge help so far. They are installing as we speak (fingers crossed!)
 
Crap. Now I'm not getting voice back from Google Now. Wouldn't expect that mod to have done it, its only changing the SystemUI. Ugh
