What are you people using to edit the files in the rom?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lightning18:
7-zip to edit the flashable zip files and text editor to edit text files, Notepad would do (I'm using notepad++)

_______

If you don't know how to flash the port, you might want to stay off for a while. A better build may come out after a few weeks/days. This is an SDK port not meant to be used as a daily ROM (yet?) :-)

To you restore a cm7 nandroid backup, odin isn't needed. Just need to format system, cache and data, reinstall nightly, boot nightly, and go back to recovery and restore backup. Not as quick as before but not too complex. (And I already assume people on cm7 knew that ;-) )

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tkruijer:
Hmm, I did tried that, but the files in the rom aren't compatible with a text editor? There are only weird symbols when I open it like that. I tried Ubuntu with VM but that's a ****ty system. Could you explain to me how I could adjust the system files, like the file-extentensions .so etc?

Thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Those files can't be edited in an easy way. You have to decompile them first. I don't think you should try this.

The error formatting partitions is:

E:format_volume: no mtd partition "datadata"

have i to repartition with odin?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gammelgustav:
E:format_volume: no mtd partition "datadata"

I´ ve got a similar problem:

On the first install (most recent image from OP) it stucks at Kernel boot (E:format_volume: no mtd partition "datadata") - when I pull the battery and wipe all partitions again (system/data/cache) and install it again it boots but I can´t do anything - the touchscreen does not recognize any input - the only thing I can do is pressing the power button -> the screen gets darker (not off but darker) :confused:

Hope we can fix this

Adobe Flash player doesn't work on Android 4.0, update on the way

You might have heard that the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the bringer of Android Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), doesn’t support Flash. It's not a hardware issue limited to the that model, the problem lies with the software - Flash doesn’t support ICS. Yet.

Adobe is expected to release an update by the end of the year that will add support for Ice Cream Sandwich to Android's Flash player. But pay attention at how Adobe worded its statement:

Adobe will release one more version of the Flash Player for mobile browsing, which will provide support for Android 4.0, and one more release of the Flash Linux Porting Kit - both expected to be released before the end of this year.

So, the next major Android version isn't getting official Flash support. Which coincides with Adobe's updated strategy for mobile devices that calls for HTML5 to replace Flash.

That doesn’t exclude the possibility of Flash on Android altogether - we've seen third party players like HTC's plugin - but the end is nigh. RIM for one has officially stated that they will continue development of the plug-in for their PlayBook tablet (and presumably phones running the upcoming new OS). Others who have licensed the source code can do the same.

Note that this is only for the Flash plug-in for browsers. Devs will still be able to use Adobe's technologies to create apps and games for mobile devices through Adobe AIR. That will go on with a focus on console-like gaming (thanks to the recently added 3D support). Flash for the desktop will also see continued development.

To people who are trying this out, can you tell me how the general performance seems so far? Ever since they announced ICS I've been wondering if the SGS will be able to handle ICS, specially memory-wise (considering how GB behaves).

I know it's still a test bed and I understand development cycles (not a developer myself) so I'll take it in the right context, but I'd like to get the general feeling of our valiant testers :D

F***ing awesome!

Still hasn´t the same performance in some areas as CM7 or Samsung custom ROM (especially multitasking and browser respectively), but some games run better in ICS than in CM7 for me. Adding all the new features that it brings.... makes it great!!

It only needs Bluetooth and GPS to be 110% perfect for me, but I still use it as my daily ROM.
