Xpert ROM Review for Galaxy Nexus! GSM/Verizon

Check Out The Video!

Xpert ROM for the Galaxy Nexus GSM and Verizon gives you the Sony Xperia features on your Galaxy Nexus device. This ROM has features like the launcher, apps, and widgets ported over from the Xperia lineup to your Nexus device! 

One of my favorite parts about ROMS is that you have can get features that are exclusive to only a certain company, in this case Sony, and port those features over to a AOSP device! Xpert ROM comes with a couple of Sony apps like Walkman, Music, and Movies. You also get some widgets, but the biggest one is the Xperia launcher. 

This ROM includes the Sony Xperia launcher and is very similar to the real one, you get a very similar looks and functionality as the original one. So far I haven't experienced any problems with this ROM and it can definitely be used as a daily driver!

Google Play Edition ROM for Galaxy S4!

Check Out The Video!

With the recently released Google Play Edititon phone like the Galaxy S4 and HTC One it was only a matter of time until someone ported them over to the other variants of Galaxy S4. This Google Play Edition ROM port includes everything that the original one has and everything works flawlessly! The Google Play Edition ROM port will work for the Galaxy S4 GT-i9505, AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint! 

This was the first AOSP ROM I installed on my Galaxy S4 since I got it and it is so much better than Touchwiz. You get more memory storage, no lag, and just a clean smooth UI. Since this leak was from the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition, Android should take full advantage of the hardware, especially the Quadcore Snapdragon! 

There are two version of this ROM, one is running on Android 4.2.2 and comes pre-rooted, while the other one is running on Android version 4.3 and doesn't come pre-rooted, however Chainfire has found a way to root the Android version 4.3 for the GT-i9505, AT&T, and T-Mobile. If your running on Verizon or Sprint use the Android version 4.2.2 specifically for your Galaxy S4 variant! 

How to install on AT&T Galaxy S4: 
Download the Android version 4.2.2 or 4.3 of Google Play Edition ROM and flash it. Do Not Reboot Your Device. Flash Loki Doki then reboot your phone. 

How to root using the Google Play Edition 4.3 version [GT-i9505/AT&T/T-Mobile ONLY]: 
1. Flash the 4.3 Google Play Edition ROM (link below).
2. Reboot your phone
3. Download SuperSU-JWR66N-S005-130625-1.41.zip to your phone.
4. Enter back into recovery mode and flash the SuperSU zip file.
5. Reboot your phone, if you asked to disable stock recovery choose "No".

Illusion ROM for Galaxy S3! Halo & Key Lime Pie Theme! [T-Mobile/AT&T/Verizon/Sprint]

Check Out The Video!

Time for another ROM for the Galaxy S3! This ROM is called Illusion ROM and it's available for the T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon, & Sprint Galaxy S3 variants. Two of the most notable things is the Key Lime Pie Android theme and the halo heads. 

My most favorite part about this ROM is the very cool Key Lime Pie Android themes, it brings a lot of color and makes the Android UI look even more sleeker than it already is. To make it even more sleeker it comes with all the AOKP settings! 

This ROM also comes with the halo head feature, usually seen in Paranoid Android ROMS. This feature makes it much more easier to access and get to your notifications without leaving the app you currently on. That feature is new and I haven't experienced any problems with that part of the ROM. 

Before you download this ROM there are a couple things to note. This is a BETA ROM, meaning that not everything is fully functional and the developer is still working on fixing all the bugs. With my experience with the ROM the main part of the ROM is functional, but there are bugs. 

Download this ROM using the links below!
Download Illusion ROM for T-Mobile Galaxy S3
Download Illusion ROM for AT&T Galaxy S3
Download Illusion ROM for Verizon Galaxy S3
Download Illusion ROM for Sprint Galaxy S3
