Guest jeddy1 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 I'm not talking about the rom that this thread was made for. That's wonderful and real work. This guy on the other hand just added a few files that were already available and uploaded it as his own work, even going as far as iterating the version number, without any actual improvements. Let me repeat this again: this wasn't directed at Tom G. the actual developer but to the guy whose post I originally quoted. Text comprehension is a really useful skill, you should learn it. Your point of me shutting up and letting guys do their work is really badword up, because the guy I was complaining about didn't do any work. LIKE i see u didnt read it well last 2 pages someone suggested that ok bec some people are having problems! this guy just offers all-in-one !! do u know what that means ?that the people having problems with superuser and gapps can flash that zip directly u should say sorry and thanks to him !!
Guest B9Anders Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 I'm using it as a daily driver at the moment, it runs very smoothly, gallery is working for me. No camera or browser at the moment though. Facebook contact sync doesn't work at all but this is not a limit in the ROM, just ICS as a whole due to a dispute between google and facebook. Battery life is better for me then any other ROM I've ever run. Thanks. Sounds good enough for me to want to try out. Stupid question, part 2 (google didn't help much): What exactly is in the GAPPS package? And if I do install it, can I just flash it right after having flashed the rom or what is the proper procedure?

Your point of me shutting up and letting guys do their work is really badword up, because the guy I was complaining about didn't do any work. First I think you should take your own advise. The person you quoted said he made some improvements on the original rom. S/He didn't say "I made a new rom". Nor is he taking credit for the rom. He made some improvements (changes / additions) which in his(her) opinion thought was worth sharing. Don't condemn people for trying to help, rather condone it. How else will new devs be made if you slap them down before they have a chance to fly. @b9anders Yes you can flash the gapps right away. It contains the market which to be honest is the most important app. The rest are Map, Places, Gmail, Navigation and talk Edited January 4, 2012 by chimas
Guest hugobosslives Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) very usable as a daily rom. i use it as my rom. and since this is currently my only phone. my rom has to be a daily one. all that stuff you need works. and you can download apps that sync your facebook contacts. gallery also works perfectly. (well apart from the pinch zoom feature, and videos [they are a bit slow 5fps]) 3g data, wifi, texts, phone calls, etc all work fine. tho you have to use a different browser to the stock one. the only thingsdon't work that should bother most people is camera, stock browser and some apps in market. Stupid question, part 2 (google didn't help much): What exactly is in the GAPPS package? And if I do install it, can I just flash it right after having flashed the rom or what is the proper procedure? its the google apps. i.e gmail, market, google talk etc. yes i flashed it straight after the rom along with the su zip Edited January 4, 2012 by hugobosslives
Guest jeddy1 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks. Sounds good enough for me to want to try out. Stupid question, part 2 (google didn't help much): What exactly is in the GAPPS package? And if I do install it, can I just flash it right after having flashed the rom or what is the proper procedure? look at the previous page the last posts is mentioned alpha 5.1 install that and nothing else it has included gapps ,su fixed and smth else :D
Guest B9Anders Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks for the feedback everyone. I find Opera Mini superior to the stock browser anyhow, so that is no big deal to me. Hugobosslives: Any suggested apps for facebook integration?
Guest sm4tik Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Skywave made an AOSP build with Tom's (I assume) kernel that's got a working multitouch. Maybe someone want's to extract the kernel from the .zip and inject it to alpha5. I was about to do it myself, but then again, I'm still on CM7 :)
Guest chimas Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Can some do me a favor and try using root explorer with this rom. BTW to whom it may concern I got the whatsapp to work. You simple go to their website and download it from there
Guest targetbsp Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Alpha 5.2 someone? :D As a gamer, the lack of multi touch was the only thing preventing this being my daily rom. And my web browser has had an ICS compatibility update since I last tried CM9. The camera is of no particular interest to me. I'm sort of half replying to the is it usable question here too! Root Explorer worked fine for me. Edited January 4, 2012 by targetbsp

Guest targetbsp Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks will try again. BTW I just discovered that they was an alpha 19? Different rom, still ICS. :)
Guest cd492 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Guys in the meantime just use Opera Mini Browser. This Browser works pretty well with this rom!
Guest chimas Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Different rom, still ICS. :) Oh Are they similar? Dont really want to wipe my system again.
Guest Davidoff59 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 One is aosp so as close to stock as possible. The other is cm7 based so has some cm7 apps. Its worth checking both out.

Root Explorer worked fine for me. I decided to test the kernel anyway but after a quick spin, I think it's not worth it. Tested multi touch with quickpic and it works, but for some reason it's lagging more than with the kernel in alpha5. Also gallery isn't working?? I'm uploading it now for the adventurous, maybe it's just me? Will edit post with a dl-link soon. edit: here md5 11fe832543fa6bd610732244da3385f9 Edited January 4, 2012 by sm4tik

Guest sm4tik Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 did u overclock ?if yes how much ? just asking bec i wanna know not test anything :D Yes, 691. That's as high as my blade can handle stable.

Sadly, this is not a happy experiment for me. I tried the "5.1" first, but that never got past the bootsplash no matter how long I waited. Then I tried the one in the OP. This brings me to the welcome screen after entering my PIN, then it tells me DSPManager has crashed and when I push start, it "unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped". :( Edited January 4, 2012 by B9Anders
Guest brookergray Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Working browser anyone? :lol: This also means working gmail, facebook, google reader and everything that uses webkit. I'll make a flashable zip in a sec. EDIT Here's the link: http://www.box.com/s/c0h5v1jq326noi93xy10 Just flash in clockwork. And for God's sake, please DO NOT WIPE DALVIK CACHE. It's useless. I baksmalied the framework.jar from the ics alpha in the other thread and copied some smali files. Credit to the original creator. Edited January 4, 2012 by brookergray
Guest B9Anders Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 OK, I got the "5.0" in the OP to boot by flashing the rom and nothing else. Then I rebooted into clockwork again, flashed GAPP and Su and now whenever I reboot, it keeps rebooting into clockwork whenever I start it. What the Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo am I doing wrong?

Guest Ayrto Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Working browser anyone? :lol: Thanks a lot, this is pretty much the only thing making it hard to use as a daily driver!
Guest davidnintendo Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks a lot, this is pretty much the only thing making it hard to use as a daily driver! Also devs from the AOSP build got a fix on multitouch in the kernel, so perhaps if we grab the latest update kernel and put it on CM9 multitouch starts working. The problem is that maybe it breaks USB host mode, and if TomG made kernel tweaks to get Hardware Acceleration working, it may break it too. If anyone tries it please tell us what you get :D
Guest jeddy1 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 One is aosp so as close to stock as possible. The other is cm7 based so has some cm7 apps. Its worth checking both out. I guess u mean CM9 :P lol
