This is the beginning of the return for RoootzBoaaaat.

We are changing our focus a bit to speed and stability rather than 1000 features. Hopefully you guys will like it.

Camera/Camcorder fixed - no need to dirty install from previous JB ports
WifiTether Fixed
Voice Search Fixed - no longer have to download offline pack to make it work
SuperSU added to build
Insecure boot - adb remount, etc working now
Root Explorer was updated on the app side, no more issues there

New GApps with the help of Kejar31 adds:
--App restore fixed
--New Music
--New YouTube
--New Gmail
--other random bits

Build 1 - Beta build
Built from AOSP source
su installed, download SuperSU or Superuser apks whichever you prefer.
Install busybox from market "Busybox installer or other"
Google Now/Voice Search works with included Gapps.
RootzBoat wallpapers included
Toro volume fixes applied
Correct ERI included
Various VZW bits included..

This is obviously the second build of this ROM. Fixes and adds will be coming super quick, but wanted to get this out there to give you crackflashers something to do today.

I have searched the thread for GPS locking and see that it is working for almost everyone. However I am not getting a GPS Lock? Is there a trick I am missing. Also wonder if anyone has had any luck with Wallet. Everytime I try to activate mine it just sits as activating account. I have flashed the gapps kejar31-20120712. I am going to try the 20120713 gapps to see if that helps any. Any help is appreciated.

Download faster GPS from the market. Gets me strong signal locks in seconds!
I carry 4-5 batteries--but usually need only 1 or 2 swaps when I am out.

WormDoes, why does it take 10 minutes to replace a battery? The hardest part for me is snapping the cover back on without breaking the tabs. That should take under a minute.
7 of those 10 minutes I'm usually staring at the Google screen

New gapps incoming ........again.

Don't need to wipe for this.

Fixes Picasa sync.

Must manually setup sync within the Gallery application after reboot.

OK......really need to go to work now, before they decide they don't need me anymore :)

Haha I'll try it dirty (like it dirty every now and then anyways ;-)) and we shall see what happens. Thanks man. One quick question. I've never used SuperSU till JB and I don't like it. I like the regular superuser app. Can I simply download superuser from play store install it and then uninstall supersu or will that screw stuff up?
You will have to delete supersu since its in system/app but shouldn't cause any issues

From with-in the app. setting "switch superuser apps" click on that, it will clean itself then you can use the other.

Installed newest gapps over original for V2 and browser sync is fine and all seems well with those.

Thnx for the tip. Just recently started using supersu not familiar with all the options yet

This happen to anyone else who uses Titanium?
Been getting prompted with this since the 1st JB port I flashed (Vicious V1) and every time since.
After "restoring previous devices ID" phone reboots.
Have never had a problem with apps, etc.

Ummm... That's a good thing. It's a fairly new feature in TiBu. I ALWAYS let it restore. Things are much cleaner if I let it restore the ID.
I never asked if it was a good or bad thing, I assumed it was a good thing. Just never saw it until JB, Was curious if other people were getting prompted with it as well
Does anyone else have an issue with silencing sms notifications?
The alert sounds even when on silent mode.
This has happened to me on every JB rom that I have tried.
Anyone else getting this?

It's a feature of TiBu that was added a couple updates ago.

They added that after the whole Google Music device limit thing. I believe you should restore the previous ID that way it won't mess with anything.

Beta 2 is running great. Thanks for adding in the new Play Music, Xoom!
Beta 2 is solid, no complaints at all. The only minor problem I've been having is streaming music, but that is most likely because my work location is in the middle of nowhere. Thanks Xoom!
Has anyone else noticed weak WiFi reception? It was fixed on the leaked ROMs so I'm not sure if that same issue is present in source but I'm definitely unable to connect in distant places I normally can here at work

Glad to be back on the Boat. Beta 2 is nice so far. No issues.
