I haven't seen anything official about this on his site or in any other forums. Has anyone flashed this? How's it running?
He also has stock and rooted rom there also.......if I wanted to be rooted and have a stock rom.... can I use this? Also if I could....which one do I use for LTE Verizon
Thanks

Yes sir I have flashed it this morning and until now I am loving it, hope nothing comes up to change that .
Pete makes a few little changes here and there, but I've tried his ROMs since the OG droid, and I gave them a fair chance (3 day period) and I always found myself going back to other developers.
It's not so much that I had issues running his ROM, it's just the other ROMs offered much more and had better performance. I gave his bugless another chance on the galaxy nexus, and history seems to repeat itself.
gummynex and rootzboat are both superior in my opinion.

Thanks for the input! I'm running GummyNex now and loving it. I'm just interested in exploring other options.
I'm currently running Mr. Alfonso's 12/20 nightly, and it's my favorite so far...basic, solid, pure 4.03. Other than that, I've flashed (in this order):
Bigxie's Stock 4.02 rooted with added autobrightness mod - compass was broken. Facebook fonts were invisible until i deleted a couple of corrupt font files.
Revolution HD 2.1.1 - Seemed fine...felt like stock 4.02 but clearly had been poked and prodded a bit.
ODIN image with no bootloader/no wipe/no recovery - i only flashed it to get as close to stock w/ CWM as possible. not sure it was worth the effort.
rootz boat - Solid, but it was missing a few niceties from the stock rom...seemingly for the sake of aosp purity? Bleh... Google apps issues were an annoyance, and a couple of the tweaks just seemed pointless. Also, while not much of an issue, it had a terribly obnoxious default wallpaper.

Other ROM developers make a bunch of pointless changes here and there, and I've been flashing their ROMs since the venerable HTC Dream. I give them a fair chance and often appreciate their work a great deal, but I always end up going back to the ROMs that provide me with a near-stock experience boasting added stability, better battery life, and solid performance. For my wife's OG droid, there's no question Pete's ROMs and kernels were at the top of the heap for most of that phone's lifespan. For my original t-mo galaxy s vibrant, birgertime nailed it with trigger.
It'll be interesting to see what happens with the gnex. I feel like we've got a ton of top-shelf talent descending upon this device, but I'm giving Pete the early lead based on track record and my early satisfaction with the 12/20 nightly.
To whom it my concern:
I have been the guy who had dealt with ups and downs with the Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Mostly downs! But this thread is to simply help those with the LTE Galaxy Nexus and needing answers as to What rom is best and/or Kernel.
My experience lately with one of the greatest ROMS has been awesome! Along with a Kernel i separately flashed. Both 4.1.1 AOSP Liquid Smooth Rom and Franco Kernel has made me the happiest man with a Galaxy Nexus and definitely saved me a few hundreds, considering i was close on buying the GS3. A lot that i was looking for, i found in both of these babies.
I can go all day about how wonderful both of these go hand and hand. Just know this completely solves battery issues (I dealt with a battery life lasting about 6 hours and NOW i go about 12 to 13 hours). Does a good job with customization (for me at least). Performance is buttery LIQUID smooth.

Everything you NEED to know, is on the developers thread ^^^ ... i personally take NO credit for these mods.
Big thanks to the great Developers on Team Liquid.
I just wanted to share with you all, those who are looking for something better. Any questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks for your input. I however have the SMOOTHEST and most trouble free rom and kernal. STOCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the one phone if you can wait for JB there really is no need for anything more then unlocked boot and rom....
Glad you found your happy spot though!
Hello G Pro users.
So as some of you may know, I sort of have a little bit of experience compiling ROMs and kernels. It's not a lot, but it's enough to get something done. Anyways, I learned of an exciting new project started by some promising devs: http://www.venturerom.com/. This is hopefully going public soon, and I hope I can get it to work for our device (even though it'll be unofficial). AOSPA based and everything. It is aimed at battery life and features. All I have to say is WOW. It looks great
Any thoughts? I love Bliss, Beanstalk, Carbon, and PAC. But there is ALWAYS more room for ROMs on our device IMO.
Plus Carbon is currently going under L changes, so I cannot update that for a while, these guys are pushing for 4.4.4, which means solid working project! Yay!
If you haven't tried custom ROMs yet, or just AOSP for that matter, I highly suggest you give it a try. Best Android experience IMHO.
Go go go dude!! You the man!! Thanks for all the effort you are putting in developing for this device,

They released RC1 last night and it should be out tonight
I don't think they'd have wanted me to release it beforehand. Keep your eyes peeled
Having multiple rom is cool, but in my opinion the best thing is having optimized popular rom such as slimrom.
Now our device is powerful enough to handle all roms and all market app for now.
Bun in 2-3 years, I think optimized rom will appreciated.
In example, lot of user still using HTC desire and desire Z, even with a stock 800mhz single processor and 512mb ram, because great dev port 4.4.4 rom in the proper way.
Good news everyone!
The superfantasticawesome Nameless ROM dev team currently has a very solid 5.0 port currently open for testing! You can find it at http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/5-x-namelessrom-all-variants.22451/ .
Be sure to say thank you to them, and give them the feedback they deserve for this!
TIPS FOR INSTALLING:
Like many ROMs for the Find7 variants, this ROM needs a specific baseband or the proximity sensor gets pretty finicky. However, not all basebands seem to be compatible at the moment. For myself, I found that downgrading to the 2.0.3 beta only worked for me (I'm on a Find7a), but I've also heard that some Find7 people were able to use 1.2.5.
Enjoy your Lollipop, everyone!
Fantastic news. I'm downloading it right now. Will test tonight. Thanks.
Nameless rom works fantastic for me.Very smooth indeed. The only issue is with proximity sensor. Can you please let me know on how youdegraded the baseband version?

Use the stock recovery to flash the 2.0.3i beta, then install the 5.0 port. If you're on a non stock recovery, I'd recommend using Tantrum's recovery installer here!
I think there is no need to flash whole COS rom then Nameless LL. If some sensors are not working in LL, like proximity, try to flash other modem, no need for whole ROM.
Go to modem collection here and try to flash 1.2.5 modem, it should work.
If you have chinese model, like me, I have x9007, I flashed Modempackage_1.2.5_zixuan_cn.zip and Nameless LL is working great, only NFC is not working.

That's very interesting. I tried using three different basebands (the 1.2.5, 2.0.3, and a OnePlusOne baseband) but all of them only caused the ROM to bootloop. Glad it worked for you guys though!
Hi folks,
I'm considering unifying since I quickly run out of app space. Is there any word on a L port for unify and if there is a specific unify method that has to be followed?
Thanks for your help, apologies for my ignorance.

I believe that this ROM actually supports unified storage. Check out the link that I posted at the top, and you should find unification instructions in the first post.
Great thanks BG!
Cant wait to flash.
This is awesome, I'm happy that I accidentally came to general looking for a new ROM.
Edit:
No dice on flashing the Dec 6th 5.0.1 for me (Find7a not unified)
I tried modem versions 1.2.5i and 2.02i
Edit 2:
Dont wanna rain on anyone's parade but i got the Omni 5.0 ROM to work instead.
Edit 3:
So after finding no Root yet on Omni, i went ahead and flashed NameLess again and for some reason it works. well.. yay! (Dec 6 not unified)
I have to admit it was easier to get Omni 5.0 to work over Nameless 5.0 and I came from Nameless 4.4.4 Kit Kat.

Hey, that's great! How have you found the battery life so far on Omni? I found that Nameless was a bit better in both the battery and features department, but I've been a huge fan of OmniRom for quite some time now, and would love to support their work too.

Battery life is good on Omni, however, I have to agree with you that Nameless battery life is better, and their features are more extensive.
On a side note: although the battery and features are a "bit better" on Nameless, OmniRom, in my opinion, is the gold standard for (AOSP) custom Roms. There are no fillers, they are quick to implement cutting-edge advancements, and their Roms just work. Meaning, they are stable.

That has really, over the past year, become our primary focus - on our most well supported devices, we are far more stable than many other projects. (Although the EOS guys do a damn good job too).
We're also the only project other than EOS where users of Oppo devices can routinely interact with the developers who did the hardware support of the device.
In the case of CM - Most of the work is Steve swinging his ninja sword, at least Tom does talk to users but much of the work is done by people who never come here.
In the case of all CM derivatives that blind-track CM (Nameless is in this category - in fact it was founded by some Omni maintainers who disagreed with the rest of Omni as far as blind-tracking CM vs. actually solving the problems on your device yourself.) - you're even farther removed from the people actually doing the work.
Omni and EOS both have the guys who are doing the hardware bringup communicating with users directly to look for trends and issues that stand out. (the two teams also communicate with each other...) Gummy did too before they called it quits.

Hey, thanks for the post Entropy. I really like hearing developers opinions. In all honesty, I was using your ROM before I switched to nameless (and only did so because it was the first fully functional, stable Lollipop ROM available) and would love to switch back. You guys seem to be pretty avid in releasing your builds as of late, so I'll certainly be keeping an eye out! All I really need in terms of features anyway is the ability to change button configurations and double tap something to sleep or wake the device (I hate using the power button) so once you have those, you'll have one more on the bandwagon. You guys really are doing something right here, and I intend to support it!

This is the reason I decided to stay with omni and I am really thankful that there are people like you guys out there that don't let us alone with a great device but awful default firmware (COS).
But I would really like to know your opinion about Paranoid Android, as I always thought they have (sometimes more, sometimes less) good communication to their users and a solid team of Devs that solves issues instead of blind-tracking the solutions from somewhere else.
