Unlike the Nexus 4, you will need to install a special zip file (using the custom recovery) to fix the following:

  • LTE & GPS(JB AT&T modem)(4.2.2)
  • Volume keys
  • Internet APNs(AT&T)
  • SD card fix (stock 4.2.1 & 4.2.2 based roms only for now)
  • NFC(Might or might not work)

Flash Fixes zip file

(we need to figure out how this thing works...)

Customize the Fixes zip file

Each custom ROM variant uses a unique framework-res.apk file that cannot be used in other variants, so we cannot make a universal fix.

However, you can modify the fixes file to work with any other ROM in less than 1 minute. (We should really create a script to do this automatically, though... Maybe a zip.js app, or integration with Android auto-patcher?) Download the fix zip file and follow these instructions:

  1. Download and install 7zip.
  2. Get the zip file of your current custom ROM, and view the files inside.
  3. Extract the framework-res.apk file from your custom ROM's zip file. It is found under framework/.
  4. Right-click framework-res.apk, go to the 7zip menu, and select Open archive.
  5. A new window will open. Browse to res/xml/ and copy this modified storage_list.xml into it (to download, click the link, right-click save-as).
  6. It will ask to to overwrite, click Yes.
  7. Replace the framework-res.apk in the fixes zip file (under the folder framework/) with your modified one.
  8. You can now flash the modified fix to your phone.
