Guest tilal6991 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 I have found that setting the DPI to 160 with the free application "DPI Changer Utility" from the market greatly improves the smoothess of all animations and the launcher. Im not sure why this is but it would be interesting to know if it helps anyone else Agree completely with skywave - it has a really high chance of breaking apps - especially stuff like the phone app
Guest targetbsp Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Can someone please give me a link to a 180mb-200mb system partition? closest I can find is wbaw's 220mb, but really don't like idea of having such a large cache! You can use the tpt helper app on the market to make whatever sizes you want. be sure to choose your correct phone type on first run (stock gen2 or tpt gen2 or windows updated gen2 or whatever)
Guest Ar_jay Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Thanks for clearing that up for me, however I havent noticed any reduction in quality or any apps breaking. For me it is definitely worth it. If I find any broken apps then I will consider changing it back.
Guest asm19 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 I linked one just above your post. :) On the whole this rom is fast, stable, smooth and all my user apps are working. I'm very impressed! Just a few minor issues I've spotted: gallery doesn't show the picture its asking you to crop for your wallpaper which makes cropping it challenging! the keypad lights appear to be on permanently and the led doesn't appear to colour when receiving a text or call the wifi has dropped for me twice after prolonged on times. it complains the router is not in range. toggling wifi off and on recovers it + Youtube: The sound is good but the video has lag. Browser: Is there any lag to load pages and do scrolling Calculator: Force Closed tilal6991 Thank you for your work. GPS: works fine!
Guest wukudaku Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 ICS needs around 200MB system partition but how big should be cache partition, 37MB or 2MB?
Guest asm19 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 tilal6991, for when the new version that fixes these bugs? Thanks

Guest manimaluk Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Anyone know why this rom wont go past the boot screen on my chinese blade please. I have followed the instructions on first post. Burstlam's build loads ok. Just wanted to have a play with this one. Thanx in advance. Sorry about the bold font dunno why it did that Edited February 27, 2012 by manimaluk
Guest christiancheer Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Works fine here, except the gallery (force close) and the browser (slow!). Apart from that, excellent work! Keep it up, tilal ;)
Guest Geree Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 First impressions with the Febr. 26th build: -Airplance mode caused a reboot -Calculator doesn't work -Both Gallery and Camera doesn't work properly -I'm not sure if the Icon of the Wifi should work this way, but it is very dark and hard to see. -Auto brightness (light sensor) got stucket at max brightness level -Latest febr.24 gapps installed and seems to work well. so far so good...I'll keep testing for few days Keep up the great work! :)
Guest rwalton159 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 I loved this rom but I do like to use the camera and Youtube is a must. Its great to think the phone I bought in October 2010 has the capacity to take ICS :)
Guest rafalo1333 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Latest build is missing the SmartAssV2 governor, any chance to have it in future updates? Anyone can make the zip with this governor to flash via recovery?

Anyone can make the zip with this governor to flash via recovery? No because this is a new kernel so the old one would cause FCs and reboots. Ondemand is as good as Smartass in reality.
Guest targetbsp Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) No because this is a new kernel so the old one would cause FCs and reboots. Ondemand is as good as Smartass in reality. It's not. And I can give you an app that proves that. Post Modern. :) The performance difference is night and day between On Demand and SmartAss in that one. Edited February 27, 2012 by targetbsp
Guest Arz Bhatia Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 We've just received a complaint against the users following the thread. Guys, please do not fill up the thread by posting stuff like 'flashing ROM right now, updating rom' and all, you can leave back user feedbacks for the developer but anything other than that is just going to fill the thread with trash and annoy some fellow members. Please follow the rules respectively, Thanks Arz
Guest tilal6991 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 It's not. And I can give you an app that proves that. Post Modern. :) The performance difference is night and day between On Demand and SmartAss in that one. Really - I've always thought they were the same - I'll add it in a couple of releases time. Next release - better kernel, even smoother UI, better battery life, proximity calibration by default, GPU OCCing (thanks to wbaw), WiFi undervolt (better battery life)(thanks to wbaw), WiFi modules update, Kernel undervolt at low frequencies (better battery life)(thanks to wbaw)

Guest koeny33 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 GPU Overclocking? Brilliant! Anyway, I have been using the current ROM today (get up at 7.00am, be at school at 8.30, back home at 5.00pm, write this at 8:41pm). I installed some apps: -Nimbuzz -Virtualboy (GBA Emulator) -Tweakers.net app -Tested a game: GTA III (laggy of course, but it worked!) -iMeta (for school). Haven't had any crashes the whole day! It's still lagging with video (not Youtube, just a normal .mp4) though. No pressure though, I can live without it :) It's amazing what you've done so far, keep up the good work!
Guest Proove Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 If ColdFusion has the same look and same toggles hidden behind the settings button at the status bar like Burstlam's ICS it'll be the best ICS!
Guest rafalo1333 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Any SmartAssV2 for our kernel? ;) Also, how will the GPU OC look like? Same as CPU via app or built-in? Thanks Tilal, your work is amazing!:lol:
Guest targetbsp Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Kernel undervolt at low frequencies (better battery life)(thanks to wbaw) That one is a really bad move. It barely improves battery life (and even then only in very select circumstances) and causes stability issues. I think everyone compiling CM7 builds has ditched it now. Here's my most recent post on the subject: http://android.modaco.com/topic/335328-romgen2cyanogenmod-7-android-237/page__st__12500__p__1898340#entry1898340 There are plenty of other views in that thread - but obviously it takes some reading. Just don't go assuming it's a good thing because it's nowhere near as good as it sounds! Edited February 27, 2012 by targetbsp

For when this new version? :D Thanks

It barely improves battery life (and even then only in very select circumstances) and causes stability issues. I think everyone compiling CM7 builds has ditched it now. It's not the same as everyone else has been using - it's quite different. CM7 build were using it at middle frwquencies - ie 300 - 500. This one is 100-200 and should be completely stable.
Guest matt4321 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Been using the ROM all day, had a reboot once other than that ok, stability wise it's really fast but does seem to be draining my battery so hopefully like you said it may be improved in the next release.
Guest asm19 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 It's not. And I can give you an app that proves that. Post Modern. :) The performance difference is night and day between On Demand and SmartAss in that one. Can you tell which app to see the performance of the governors, please?
