Well not the leak, thats not even alpha... its basically a merge of the AOSP branch of 4.0.1 with their existing TouchWiz branch. They tweaked a few modules in but honestly its more like an internal milestone build. Alphas tend to have the framework in place, of which this one certainly doesn't. So an Alpha would most likely being leaked around Jan of 2012 from Samsung.

I dont think the AOSP is going to be of much help until Samsung starts releasing its kernel source for 4.0.3 (which is the official version 1 of ICS from Google). From what I understand it doesn't sound like Samsung's code base will start to stabilize until February with releases around March to April depending on the carrier. So we can expect to seeing Samsung's final kernel source being released around then since Samsung tends to avoid internally working on the public repos they have out there.

Its great to hear your intentions for doing an AOSP vanila+ release for ICS like you reverse engineered here for Gingerbread. Honestly Cyanogenmod has been getting a bit to bloated for me recently and has been moving more and more towards basically making less like pure AOSP and more like a themed and customized rom across devices. I have no problems with injecting a unique color scheme for consistency to mark it as your work, but Cyanogen is just slowly moving towards MIUI crap territory for me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] globiboulga:
Love the rom. Great to have the ASOP plus those pieces of software that are better than the stock ones: camera, video...

I have a quick issue however. Flashed the base rom and then the video zip. Wiped dalvik and rebooted. Everything works fine, but after some time, the phone screen goes black and nothing works anymore... The only way to get out of this death grip is to basically remove the battery and reboot.

Anyone experiences that? Any solution? Would hate to no be able to use this rom daily.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
It is a sleep of death. You don't have to remove battery, simple press and hold power button for a few seconds until the phone reboots.

This has been discusses quite a few times already in this thread:

Using root explorer,

either remove system/etc/init.d/74OC-Daemon and /system/etc/dual_core_script.

OR

Raise voltages in dual_core_script.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] globiboulga:
Thanks. Very much appreciated. Went through quite a few pages but did not spot the answer to that sleep problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] brack11:
The experience is good indeed. I have one issue that might not be related to this particular rom but to all group of roms. I have app called "noom" it's very nice part of cardiotrainer software that does calculation of all spent/consumed calories. Anyway, this app lags quite badly when I try to update food records. It did lag on almost all Sammy based roms except first checkrom junction with leomar's rom. Now I also know that it doesn't lag at all on any aosp rom. But it still lags badly on gingermod. Anyone knows why?

I went to jkay thread and downloaded jkay app v13.1 and it works perfectly with black android theme downloaded straight from the forum. I couldn't install this same theme from ota app though, it downloads then I click apply, it reboots into 3e recovery, I choose reboot there and when it reboots there's nothing flashed.

IIRC you have to flash the themes + modified Jkay 13.1 that sileshnair posted a few pages back if you want 13.1 functionality.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] capt_carl:
I have a question, I've not tried the GingerMod OTA before. If I do it this way will it wipe the phone or will everything remain intact?

Thanks though Luca, Great work :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
Why would OTA app wipe anything. It is for downloading extra mods like themes, modded apps, etc.

Everything will be intact.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] capt_carl:
The OTA section in settings has a bid for ROM updates. I might be wrong but it looks like I'll be able to download the update for the ROM from there.

If I do will applying it wipe the phone, if that's not what it does... then what does it do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Yeah ota is MAINLY for rom updates!

Exttras are...well...an extra hihihi

(Its not thought nor wrote to be like a "kitchen ")

I feel very well with this and have best performance :)

Cant wait for it. Hope the google voice dialer works with bluetooth voice dial this time around. ^.~

No Wipe? how did you manage that? Pretty much all of the non-lettered updates in the past have required a wipe or else you would encounter strange behavior. Could it be GingerMOD is stabilizing?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tommyrumbler:
hi luca, do u have a link for the actual final version of abyss 3.0? i've search high and low but could not find any.the link you pointed out at 4seasons points out to the actual source/github. i just wanted to have a copy for future use. will see how it performs.

also will try 4seasons ,main reason being is coz you're part of the dev team :D

Great ROM!! Like the idea to get close to an AOSP ROM. No RAM eaten by Samsung apps. Only one problem: I get force closes when it starts to sync my contacts. Just read somewhere else that installing TW Calendar fix the problem. And it really did the trick.

Keep up the good work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
@ALL GUYS

We are facing some kernel problems (really stupid thing BTW) so we are fixing it on Vivaldi, now I'll release the rom tomorrow as the rom has the same kernel, ill release it directly with fixed kernel :D

EDIT:

Bug is fixed :D

Tomorrow evening the rom is up!! :D

@sileshnair

The rom BTW is kk5, if you want to make a theme I think having as base any kk5 will be ok! It hase the latest jkay 13.2 :D

Will the update be released this evening (aka any minute now) or tomorrow evening (23-12-2011)?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cwestpha:
He said tonight, but if I remember he is from Europe so its actually tomorrow morning there. Remember he doesn't have the best upload rate with his connection so it takes a long time for him to get the ROM uploaded and ready to go for everyone. So if there was an issue that arose, or RL just prevented him from getting to uploading the file to the server. So just wait and he will return with either an explanation of there being a bug they found that delayed the final release or just something came up and wasn't able to get to it... or perhaps a component was updated with a new release and he decided to delay it a day or two to bake it in. ^.~
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mk4y:
