AOKP Jelly Bean Reaches Milestone 1 with Next Update Being Android 4.2

AOKP has definitely made its mark in the Android community, by simply tweaking our beloved stock Android, in a rockstar, unicorn fashion. Just like how Cyanogen has their stable candidate versions, AOKP has their stable versions that they call “milestones”. With these milestones, major bugs are fixed, and you get a very tasty and awesome ROM to flash on your phone. This release is for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7, and Nexus S devices, but other devices should be added to the list shortly. Here is what you are going to get with this milestone:

This time we definitely focused on fixes, we managed to close each bug report received on Rootz and Twitter in the last few weeks.
But AOKP isn’t AOKP without new features, right?

  • Adjustable NavBar width for Tablets
  • Allow “Vibrate on Touch” behavior for Slide unlock
  • Toggles can be hidden like in ICS – long press on the Settings button!
  • Clickable (short & long configurable) Clock and Calendar in the Notification Slider

Further notes:

  • Evita (AT&T HTC One X / XL) is back!
  • Tunas (Galaxy Nexus phones) ship with a different kernel (LeanKernel 4.5.0), you might need to reset your Color/CPU settings in ROMControl. Do it if you encounter any weird colors (usually green) on your screen.
  • Grouper (Nexus 7) includes the stock kernel from Google

So with this milestone release, the boys at AOKP have mentioned that this will be the last Jelly Bean milestone until they get their hands on Android 4.2. Makes sense since that release of source code is quickly becoming upon us. So hit the download link below if you want to give it a try, and of course, let us know how you like it.
