Guest dadashi Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) I was looking forward to the ICS rom but not now as i'm selling my skate for very cheap just so I can get a Galaxy S2, if anyone wants it please message me and I can sell it on Ebay to make it all legit, thanks. Dont sell your skate for less than £100, you will get that at ebay...the SGS2 for £240 is bloody good... Wasnt it Frankish who sold his SGS2 and bought a Skate not just for money reasons...apparently a few people have opted for the budget Skate instead 3 or 4x more expensive phones...there really isnt Sooo much difference to warrant 4x the expense...

Guest Frankish Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 As a previous owner of sgs2 for a few months it really isn't worth paying for over a Skate unless A. Its a free upgrade. B. You play a lot of games. I don't miss mine at all as I run cm7 on any device I own and there is barely a difference.
Guest wrtease Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) well its down to him ,i also dont have a omc any more.i have a sony xperia x10i and its fantastic 4 inch screen is perfect and can hold it better than the omc. its a very good mobile the omc. its something i can come back to if i dicide to have a change. arm v7 is not much better than the arm 6 but 1ghz cpu does help.anyway enough crap from me.you have changed from sg2 to omc so it s his choice.im happy with the x10i .also still got my osf so it stays for good.no way its going.

Guest Frankish Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 Do you not find the X10 shocking at playing music? On cm7, miui and stock se 2.3 5 I got skips in my music playing. Using the phone or even ONLY listening to music. Even tried the apparent fixes with no luck, they improved it but didn't fix it. X10 is a great phone otherwise I suppose!
Guest wrtease Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 well with flash tools you can clean the crap out of it and do all stuf like xrecovery ,root,install custom kernals and firmware to suit.even unlocked kernels and custom roms . i have it finely tuned now. music seems better with the cm7 rom ,have two different backups in recovery so currently using 2.3.3 gb .with 2.1.7 baseband nad flying at the moment. if i use the cm7 backup i can use the torch apk that is in the cm7 rom but cant use it on gb 2.3.3 .its okay otherwise everything is done in flash tools and xrecovery.

The more I think about selling my Skate the more I feel like i'm loosing something...it is tempting and I was going to sell for under £100, anyway...the SG2 came about so I that's the reason behind it, I won't be selling my Skate until I get the SG2 anyway and I can always sell the SG2 for more and save the money for a better future upgrade, I wanted the Huawei Honor first but not too sure on that one. I guess all I want the SG2 for is because of its speed and better processor but I don't really need it right now, the only downsize of the SG2 is its ugly look (just my opinion), whereas my Skate looks brand new with no scratches whatsoever on the screen.
Guest D3abL3 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) No I vote for he holds it until he has mobile network and data working. For the few of us who would appreciate it there are tons of people who will post nonsense about bugs listed already. Indeed, I agree. We would be having people complain about not being able to play DeadSpace properly(no multi-touch)... I don't miss mine at all as I run cm7 on any device I own and there is barely a difference. I second that :) @Lalit: Don't mess up your ROM's fingerprint or else many Market apps won't be available for our device ;) Edited November 30, 2011 by D3abL3

Guest Frankish Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 Read the thread you crazy fool it's only 5 pages long and this is from the last page... "it will work on phones with SD cards, just not galaxy nexus etc, which doesnt have an SD"

Guest Orangemontecarlo Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 When will it be finished and uploaded ????
Guest D3abL3 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 We're really close to get it but Lalit's only uploading when he fixes mobile network I think.

Guest tilal6991 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 htc edge, its is going to be quad core tegra 3... not sure on the price though Highly doubt anyrthing less than 550 - 600 for a HTC like that
Guest D3abL3 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 Lalit can I ask for a list of working and not working stuff on ICS? :) Wuld be nice to keep us noticed about the development you're making. P.S.: USB Host comes with ICS right?
Guest tillaz Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) Highly doubt anyrthing less than 550 - 600 for a HTC like that yep i agree, tega 3 is best in tablets i think... can remember seeing a demo of tega 3 on a tablet a while back running a version of a xbox 360/PC game Edited November 30, 2011 by tillaz

Guest netdudeuk Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 @tilal,can you confirm if this is true.ICS has no mass usb storage: http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1351097 I heard last night on the Engadget podcast that a Google engineer said that USB mass storage IS supported but only if there is a storage card slot in the device.
Guest Navie Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 Tilal...one question, will your rom be biased more towards ICS or more towards Cyanogenmod? I have decided to keep a hold of my Skate for a little while yet :) ...really like the look of ICS so far, especially in this video and if someone can please let me know the wallpaper in the video that would be great Thanks.

Looks like one of the stock android wallpapers,froyo I think.

Well its so early that they are both essentially the same. Cyanogenmod just has some source side stuff which makes it easier to compile for me.
Guest Posted December 1, 2011 Report Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) Well its so early that they are both essentially the same. Cyanogenmod just has some source side stuff which makes it easier to compile for me. I personally think icecream with a sprinkle of cyanogen would be much better than stock ICS. Just as CM7 is better than stock gingerbread.Others may disagree,but there is my two cents worth. So if its easier to compile from cm source,then that sound good to me. Also if you compile from cm,would that mean you could easily add cm9 features if you choose too ? Edited December 1, 2011 by Guest
Guest tilal6991 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 RIL is now working but mobile data is not. Wifi also has been broken - will fix. I'm uploading a new build very soon.
