He has a mirror link idk if it's up to date or not.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
mirror is only one build behind.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
What exactly does the new update do?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jlewis894:
Is it me or is wifi not working on the mirror d/l link? It just keeps saying turning wifi on.....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
You are correct, sir. Uploading a new one shortly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jlewis894:
Awesome! Thank you thank you....love playin with ICS lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
New link is up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] brandogg:
I'm assuming it doesn't matter which radio (since there basically is no radio?) you have when you flash this to play with? I know sometimes Froyo ROMs won't boon on a GB radio and vice-versa, just want a little heads up before I flash...though I guess it's just as simple as restoring anyway if I do have any issues.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Gb or newer

Notes About The Compile: Update Wireless Firmware [For Realz]

MD5: 2304c1fa5a827c9c77220335bb67ea32

Just fyi I take no credit for this, this is twisted's build, and I take no responsibility for what it does to your device. (I feel like a dev :-p)

O and twisted, if you don't want me posting your builds here for whatever reason just tell me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Doesn't matter to me. The dropbox links keep getting shut down but the dev-host ones are getting worked into the process a little faster.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] istealfrombums:
So is this latest ICS build working?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
To answer the simple question, yes, this is working.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] c_live_lee:
Lol! I wonder if they want to ask anything a little more specific now! ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cub2000:
What is "Mobile Data" that's not working? Is it the "data usage statistics" or the "mobile data plan" that's not working? If the latter, then I'll wait.

If it's just some statistics that's missing, I think I'm okay to start loading ICS on my HTC.

Thanks for the work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] c_live_lee:
Yeah, you will probably want to wait, buddy. Mobile data is pretty important stuff. It means no Internet, no mms, etc. Pretty much anything beyond a phone call is inoperable at the moment, where 3g/4G connectivity is needed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Wait, phone calls work? I haven't had any signal since I last tried a week or so ago via bootmanager. Does SMS work?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] c_live_lee:
Honestly, I don't know about the functionality of either. :) I was just going by the usual scenario for a lack of mobile data. I haven't run this Rom in quite a while. I just follow his thread (and every other ICS thread for Tbolt) in hopes of catching the first one who manages to get their hands on the much anticipated and forever sought after RIL.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sorullo_xgrx:
No RIL = No calls, no SMS, or 3g/4G Internet :-).... Besides that Rom runs great, although for some reason I'm getting market fcs. I'm not sure if it's a known issue.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Market == fail. Its being obnoxious.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Try pushing an older version of market from goo-im if you dare, not that there is much risk involved. For some reason it seems like the newer gapps have various issues in different ones. You might be able to get one working with the bunch of versions they have up there.

Don't push other apps though like gallery etc because some of these may cause unforseen issues.

Twisted, I got a quick question for you to pick at. You are the only dude that I have found whom seems to give decent advice on the forum and not shrug off people who need help.

I'm trying to get Playground working on a HTC 7" tablet, the EVO View 4g specifically. It's a MSM8655 with a wimax module.

I got it to compile fine, device structure is all set up properly, but everything I've tried I cannot get it to boot. No lastkmsg, no logcat, no nothing. I've tried test kernels from cayniarb for view and they don't really work. I'm starting on looking at the HC/GB kernel source, but even with the default HC source on htcdev it won't even compile on stock..

So just to get to the point here: What would you do to get an unsupported device working with the CM kernel structure?

If you want to take on this challenge, to top it off, there's like a $400 bounty/pledge right now there they are giving for anyone who can figure this out for both flyer+view tablets (not that I am trying to claim that, honest).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I would like to take a moment and apologize to some people who have been greatly offended by the comments made dismissing their source as being just stuff we already have. I was wrong to say the submissions of the team were kanged. Sadly, despite having never said anything about MongooseHelix directly, indirectly, or otherwise, he has chosen to follow this thread and make quite a lot of comments. I hope he reads this and realizes the indiscretion was not being specific enough about what i meant. So to clarify past statements:

Nothing in their display repo isn't already available somewhere else already, with the exception of the custom qsd8 components that they wrote themselves.

Nothing in frameworks that will provide any fixes for functionality hasn't already been found elsewhere, again the custom stuff does not apply to my builds.

Nothing in their applications will provide much use because they are customized to their build and are not relevant for fixing hardware issues.

A good portion of the hardware libraries are prebuilts, so they could only be used to replace the source, not to fix it.

Hopefully that is a more straight-forward approach to rectify some of the poorly expressed comments that have been made. In the process, though, I think it vital to note that none, yes NONE, of the phones I build are listed in their "currently available" list (http://www.evervolv.com/). Yet they find it necessary to religiously follow all, yes ALL, of my threads. The obvious solution seems to jump out. You don't build the phones, so find a new place to subscribe. That simple. Nothing more will be said about you, but do your twitter followers, your irc chats, and your friends a favor and move on. Go do something with that extra time you will now have. Thank you.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I thought the flyer already had ics? What kernel are you using? Is it an ics kernel for the device or something just hack and slash?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] M..N:
The latest update for the flyer is Honeycomb I believe.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Wow, just had a read. Not sure of what to say, I did notice the posts in the Evo3D section a few days ago. Is the flaming still going on?

nope, just a throw everything I got kernel. Tried various different half-random attempts using modified speedy, mecha kernel defconfigs. It's about time I look at the source and figure out how to integrate it with what we have for CM, but this is beyond my current skill level.

The view and flyer have been EOL'ed, so official HTC ICS is not likely for us at this moment in time. But since we share same chipsets (view = MSM8655, flyer = 7x30)as other popular devices, I'm not going to agree that this is an impossible thing to do.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Hopefully not anymore, but it took until yesterday to realize how big an issue it apparently was. I honestly only knew about some random comments, not that it had consumed their entire lives. I don't view that as healthy so I figured it was time to just be done with it.

If honeycomb works, it should be relatively possible. You should be able to do the same things done to make a gingerbread kernel work. I know even some sense kernels worked for ics. Sounds like a weird combination though. Ill have to see what I can find.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Playground 6 looks more nicer. You could probably drop all the things you've personally done/touched up in there, like Navigation bar and Volume wake into your section.

This is pretty much a complete functional ROM, now if there was just a way to integrate the GB RIL or something..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Where is change log and download for PG6?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] brandogg:
Installed Beta 5 last night, very nice indeed. Almost made me cry when I switched back to CM7.1. Probably gonna try Beta 6 later today. Very nice stuff.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
That is all cm based, though. Trying to stay true to just the "extras" I only had a concept for that aren't also regular functionality. I need to build an update, though.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Weird, is it right that for my other device (vivo) I have to manually set the network service every time I reboot? This happened with a clean wipe too.

I think I did move the proper code from the msm common to the device configs, but I dunno what else I could've missed. Wifi itself is working fine.

Now to look at the rest of the kernel stuff for vidcamera, yowza looks like a ton..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ijeenyus:
Novice question: Where and what is PG6 (I assume it's the new version)? Is it for the Thunderbolt?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
It's just beta 6 if this rom.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ijeenyus:
Is that the dev-host link posted in the OP?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Not yet. There were delays but it is being uploaded tonight.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
New build is working great only suggestion I think you should replace Nova with Apex launcher it seems to work better and have more features. Camera still seems to be broken but I'm sure it'll be fixed soon. I found out my app labels weren't showing because of my grid size so that's fixed now lol. I really hope that we get ril soon I swear everything in ICS just looks and works better so much sleeker and faster then gingerbread.

Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt running Android Ice Cream Sandwich from TapaTalk2!

EDIT: stupid auto-correct.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
I haven't seen mention of this either here or on Rootz so...

...in a series of overnight tweets, a certain dev who shall not be named claimed to have come into possession of code that he claims might solve some portion of the ICS RIL dilemma. I quote:

"Holy ****........... I think I may have solved a boat load of the ICS Thunderbolt RIL issues.. This is not a joke either."

Next tweet: "I got my hands on something fan ****ing tabulous!!"

He says he's "not posting anything anywhere, when it's ready it's ready."

He went on to ask "what is the most current ICS build available for the Bolt with the most functionality?" It seems that the answer he got was Twisted's.

His last tweet said that he wouldn't be making any threads for this build (which he says he has testers lined up for) and would tweet the link once after testing.

I'm just reporting what was tweeted here because it indirectly addressed this build. Further, I'm well aware that this particular dev has made prior claims regarding the ICS RIL for the Thunderbolt and, to my knowledge, has not delivered. Please don't shoot the messenger!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Yeah, well see. Not the first time i've heard one of those follow my twitter advertisements...

I think if rule number 1 for users is don't ask for ETAs, rule number 1 for developers should be don't claim you have something until you try it. Just saying.

Edit: I don't blame you, but eventually certain people do need to learn this isn't some manufacturer release build that is finalized. If you plan to grab the newest release and hack in data, you also better be ready to either develop a process for it or plan on doing it every time the base changes. Especially since this is right when the switch to the new version of android is happening. That was a problem before and I can't just stop working on it for the sake of hacked data. That is the core reason behind saying I would wait. The hacks are static but the build is not. Oh well, at least it would be a good proof of concept I guess.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
Twisted:

I'm totally with you. I'm relatively new to Android and am not a bit-head myself. But as an end-user, so to speak, I have a lot more respect for developers who stay relatively quiet and don't "pre-announce" anything than for those who claim to have this or that before they can actually deliver anything. I suppose it's a matter of personal style.

I completely understand your point about a hacked-in solution for a given version of ICS vs. one that is portable from version to subsequent versions, meaning it is more organically conceived. I think almost everyone would prefer to see the latter, and if that means waiting for a leak or official release of ICS for the Thunderbolt, then so be it. I would love to be able to use your ROM, because I have installed it and test driven it and it seems to be in great shape. But I need my phone to work as a phone every day, so I have another ROM installed as a daily driver. Meanwhile, I think you've chosen an approach to development that carries with it a great deal of integrity. I have no doubt that when you get that leak or release, this will be

the

ICS ROM for the Thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Set all texts to google voice, and set phone calls to a skype or some other VoIP thing:

Your ICS is working as a phone.. FOR FREE under wifi. :eek:

Edit: Oh yeah, the hide signal option will come in handy. ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
And hopefully once the .4 merge is over, a camcorder now that I realized the same changes to make it work on desire z are the ones I tested last month, put aside, and forgot all about lol. We would have had it already had I not updated the kernel lol.

Edit: I wonder what other stuff I have from caf I forgot to finish... glad they found the same ones or I never would have looked.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
It'll be awesome once the camera is 100% with camcorder it seems that it's so close now and if the ril really does manager to get working by who ever then sweet we'll get the last piece of the puzzle. Anyways keep up the awesome work!

Notes About The Compile: Update Camera Update Kernel Update Settings

MD5: 23d2c9b9c4eac2f7d9eb268a71eb40ad

Same as be4..its twisted's build, not mine...I take no responsibility... Etc.. O and I know exactly which dev you're talking about..kinda funny lol..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Camera is just around the corner. We know it works, we're just trying to figure out which one makes it work.. aka looking for the needle in the haystack. Well, more like pencil in the haystack, but you get the idea. Twisted will probably find it faster than us.

Twisted: wanna review any of my commits and suggest if I'm missing anything? So far no luck on my end with these:

https://github.com/kaijura/htc-kernel-msm7x30/commits/camcorder
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
That's good to hear that were so close to getting camera. I got Apex working as a root app (it was FCing before found out I needed to rename it and remove the spaces from the name). I wish Apex was open source I would imagine it would be a lot better faster if this was the case. Man I just hope we get ril soon all these mods and awesome features in ICS are amazing. I think it would be cool to see some more of the aokp mods on this project I mean merging all the best features from all the other AOSP projects is an awesome idea I think. There are so many reasons why ICS is better then gingerbread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
This one cleans them up and fixes what was merge hack before https://github.com/ThePlayground/le...mmit/5ce4d0ea15ca4ba77f21483bd3d4c53bc398c779
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
So does that mean you figured out how to get Camcorder to work now?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Not sure. Have to build it first.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
It would be cool if you built a script that actually showed the progress of the command line as the rom was being built that would be awesome. Obviously serve no purpose other then to entertain us noobs lol. Have a little dancing Android on top of it with a percentage bar LOL.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Blah, I get a compile error with mine if I cherry that one, no matter whose source I try with it (Andromadus, arco's himself)

I must've missed something that is updated to patch this issue. I got it yesterday too, but I reverted because I couldn't figure out which patch it was that fixed it. Seems like something related to 720p or whatever.

Twisted, i dont know how old you are, but im sure you have your other life also. I just wanted to say thanks for the incredible effort you put into this. Id also like to thank the posters here for keeping their posts mature and not complaining about a ril fix. This is one of the best threads out there. Im sure that once this is complete, i will feel happy using it as my daily. Really preshe8 the effort you put into this. Thank you.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Want the fun answer, which justified wanting to slap clockan when he pulled his " I had that" routine? I actually took headers from different variations of caf and kernels and wrote in all the missing definitions. Look in my thunderbolt kernel for the vcd.h files and you should be able to pull all the ones you need. Sadly they were never clean commits. I had to mash them in along the way.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Time to give it a shot. Back to business. I'm ready to be disappointed that msm7x30 yet loses again..

Edit: Nope.. been fighting at this for a good 2 hours. Luckily the patches fixed the build, but no luck with the recording, yet, more free throws to try.

About to toss in the towel and figure it out next session.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] blankooie:
It's a great feeling knowing we still have some love for the Thunderbolts, you're doing an amazing job, can't wait to see a finished ROM come from this.

I've booted into ICS twice today just to experience it's tasty goodness and the new camcorder build isn't even out yet lol. I finally got Google Voice to do a little texting but that can't replace real texting. Man this has been the longest wait of my life lol.

Unnamed dev has gone silent on twitter once again after announcing a break through. $20 says he comes back with a rage fit and another vow to never work on the tbolt again. Not trying to go outside topic, just figured I'd throw my 2 cents in.

On a much better note, I am loving this Rom, WiFi with google voice is awesome. Best taste of Ice Cream since evervolv got it working on my DInc. Thanks Twisted.

I don't really worry if that specific Dev does anything. If he does awesome if not when the leak comes twisted will integrate it himself in sure. I'm just glad were getting so close to camcorder it'll be great when that's finally done one last thing off the list!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
twisted, if you set your fps to 15 in your media profiles, are you able to start recording and get a timecount?

Looking at the file it's properly generated, but I can't play it because it seems corrupted or something.

I can't do it in the mecha, it just FC's camera app, but it works on the vivo.

Makes me think it's something related to the encoder...

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Well thank you my friend :)

I found that the giant icons are the problem of the launchers in go launcher the icons are smaller. Other then that not really any problems with the 240 DPI. So hopefully Apex/Nova add in a feature to have resizable icons. If you want to help with that out please go here and put 3 votes on the feature. (You can actually do 6 since you can do 3 anon and another 3 logged in LOL).

EDIT: Quick question why are there two gallery apps?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kaijura:
Just applied new playground, couple of visual gripes if you haven't spotted them yet: Check your about phone section. ;)

4.0.4 really feels like nothing changed so far, but maybe I need to use it anymore. It feels like a lot more hype over the update (from the toro section) like placebo than there is actually any noticeable improvements on our customized version of it.

I choose Apex or Trebuchet over nova personally, but that's just my taste. Sometimes I feel like Apex draws the launcher apps "smoother" than Nova does, but from my time working with the roms, everyone seems to have their own preferences.

---------- Post added at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

One of them is the new/updated gallery methinks. I can tell which one is when you get the prompt to choose one but I can't figure out which one it is from choosing it in the launcher, lol. ;)
