Quick update - I have experienced zero reboots using the SiyahKernel v3.2.1 The phone has been rock stable all this time.

I seem to have a proble with Data though. It does not seem to support 3G / HSDPA data, or if it does I cannot get my usual APN to work. Any ideas?

Well, happy to hear Siyah kernel worked for you. Some people using Siyah kernel still have reboots so every phone is not the same.
I have never had a problem with data, so you may have to manually input the APN informatiom.

If you want to try something - mostly because I had problems when I first switched to ICS - is to get back to your previous ROM, install HiAPN program from market (free), save your APN settings and restore new ROM and reset APNs using HiAPN. After I first used it, I have not had to use it again.

Now...if that is not the problem, first check in settings to see if you have an entry for data.

I used siyah 3.2.1 then 3.2.2 had no problem.
Your phone data problem,  you can try to used titanium backup to restore diarer storage from your previous working cwm backup set. Hope it worked for you.

Thanks for that skoda60. I have not tried it with titanium backup but it's good to know it works.

Here is a link to a mod for XWLPD that allows Call Recording.

I have tested this on XWLPD and it works okay. You can playback the recording using the VoiceRecorder.apk application (Samsung stock app).

Make a backup BEFORE you install this.

The CWM zip file will replace the following files:

/system/app/Phone.apk
/system/lib/hw/audio.primary.exynos4.so
/system/lib/hw/audio_policy.exynos4.so

NOTE: It will be difficult for me to support this as I compared the original Phone.apk and this modified one and there are too many files which are different for me to know which ones got changed for this mod.

Call recording is standard feature for Chinese roms, it's been haxed due to some legal BS in other countries. Samsung has been doing this mod for a long time, I still remember this feature on winmo phones back the days. so we shouldn't have any problems with this, the only thing I can think of is the compatibility issue which was already proven working on LPD. Besides, it is an option so people can choose not to install.

Thanks for your time to make us a wonderful rom once again.

Gary, the QP is still the old one : (

[skoda60]

Thank Gary for your wonderful ROM.  I stilled on dxlp9 ROM but can't resisted your new XWLPD ROM. Enjoying hotfile download.

[skoda60]

XWLPD was smooth and stable. Enjoy your ROM. As usual I done double wiped by changing to oxalps csc and set to XEU code, Siyah 3.2.4.

Hi Gary,

I'm experiencing a weird issue when connecting USB...

Before I was running modaco Gr5 android 2.3.4 and when I connected my USB I could read messages like "conecting USB" and "USB connected" then I pulled down notification bar and tapped on "USB connected" and got the screen with the green android and could tap on button "Connect USB storage".

Now I get something like "Connecting MTP" and "MTP connected" when I tap there, I get nothing, then I need to go to Settings, Wireless connections, USB and then connect USB storage.

When I flash my device with your ROM I double erase every cache (double check on Davlik) and it all works ok, but I get this issue...

For the record, I'm using Fedora 14 on my laptop.

I'm attaching an screenshot from my mobile when connecting USB.

Best,
Amaya

If you need mass storage, unplugged USB from PC.
goto setting > development > unchecked USB debugging then goto wireless > more > USB utilities > touch connect storage to PC and last connect the USB to PC.

Look in res/layout/zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget.xml & res/layout/zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget_land.xml which is in framework-res.apk

Remove the line which says unlock_accuweather_logo - it is near the bottom - see blow:


            <ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/unlock_accuweather_logo" android:layout_below="@id/clock_weather_inner" />

Here is the ICS blue icon systemui you requested. The CWM zip file contains the following with blue icons:

SystemUI.apk
Contacts.apk
framework-res.apk
lidroid-res.apk

Make sure you backup before installing this.

Enjoy
