I heard there was never going to be Flash for ICS. Adobe has pretty much stopped development and is moving towards HTML5.

http://www.androidcentral.com/adobe-stop-new-development-mobile-flash-player

EDIT: [UPDATE: It seems that Adobe has broken its silence:

'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, one more and you're done.]
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
With phone browsers quickly approaching desktop class and html5 advancing adobe is doing the right thing there. Flash comparatively is garbage. Just gotta get the web developers to follow suit.

Liquid Smooth ICS Alpha

Any check out the Liquid ICS Alpha 2 available in RomManager?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Downloading now. Guess I'll give it a try :D

Edit:

Flashed the Liquid Ics. Seems to be working ok. Still has the lag, but not to bad. Kind of strange though. It uses Launcher pro in place of the Ics Launcher. Not a bad first version though. I do prefer the build we have here though... Aeroevan has a new build as well. Gps is fixed now :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] slacka-vt:
Whoa, that kind of came out of no where. I don't see any other mention of it anywhere on the web.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jbarcus81:
Noticed that too.. Never expected a build from them this soon to be honest.. but I'm running it now.. feels just like the other 2 builds out.. and it looks like they are implementing LauncherPro..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vrgelinas:
I'm not sure why one would use an alternate launcher. they seem to have taken care of most of the issues I used to have with the stock launcher. I'm downloading and trying it out, though.

EDIT: It's not too bad... feels a lot like the alpha 2 build that has been posted here but a little smoother... I'll see what turns up over the next couple days.

Anyone attempting to run as a daily?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dpdoughty:
Yeah. So far its been going pretty smoothly. Daily driver for about two weeks now (off and on since first release)

The overall lag isnt bad and it is very usable. My only problem is that some apps have random issues. Enhanced Email force closes after setup for instance. Of course the camera is a bit of a pain, especially since I fail to remember that it doesnt work almost every day.

Devs are very transparent on where they are at and whats upcoming which makes it easy to use as a DD.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I use it as a daily as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Thearden84:
Used as a daily driver over the weekend and ran great. Needed full functionality for work though...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dlln147:

You guys are brave. It still needs a fair bit of work for daily use in my opinion.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
Liquid ICS seems a little smoother than both the other builds. I think this launcher does work a little better... Didn't have time to play around with it too much, backed up and flashed back to MIUI.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dlln147:
Incredible S has full working egl. Protekk is implementing into his build
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
How'd they do the launcher? Is it a themed LP? Or just ICS with LP on it? What?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bracketslash:
Where might one find the liquid thread?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Konner920:
aeroevan posted a CM9 kang build with working HW acceleration on rootzwiki but has a LOT of redraw issues so it's kinda unusable.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Don't think there is an actual Liquid Ics thread for the Dinc2. The Liquid Ics for the Dinc2 is on Rom Manager in the download section.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:
I just seen that. What does redraw mean
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] wmsforties:
I am amazed at how quickly Ics is advancing!

It's,A League of Extraordinary Gentlemen working this rom!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
It seemed to have LP running on top of it only. Not totally positive because I have never used LP before. Now that it is backed up I cannot recall if the App Drawer had those screen transitions that overlayed each screen... Not sure if that makes sense... :o
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Not really..... but whatever lol. I was just wondering, cuz I also have it backed up but not the one from liquid's ICS.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
LOL. me too... I have the one that this thread is based on, and the liquid ICS..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aeroevan:
Yeah, I'm working on a build that has fewer redraw issues, but there will probably still be some.

The next build should have working headphone audio too :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PalmerCurling:
You. Are. A. God.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Aeroevans latest build is really getting close. The redraws are a little bit of a problem, but the Egl is really pretty dang smooth. The best it has been so far on the versions of Ics I have tried (I think, I've used all available to date). This is pretty amazing at the progress being made.

Thanks to all involved, you guys are the best!

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
In the thread at Rootzwiki there is a build of "CyanogenMod 9 RC0 KANG" from just a few hours ago with LOTS of redraw issues. You have to pull the notification bar down pretty much constantly to see what's actually on the screen, but the video and animations are all super-smooth and the live wallpapers work. It looks like the backwards compatibility for video drivers is going in to builds for our phone after all. There are also lots of random reboots. All of the Google apps show up in the Market now and GPS works. This is also the first build I've used with reliable WiFi, working Bluetooth, and working accelerometer and compass.

Stuff that seems broken:

Pretty low-quality dithering on most gradients

No microphone button on the keyboard

No compass (only broken in Google Maps, compass works otherwise)

No camera

Still glitchy but very fast and smooth animation (hardware acceleration is working)

Bookmarks sync doesn't work

Random reboots

SD Card doesn't mount locally or over USB
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I have a build for you guys that I haven't had a single problem with. SD card mounts, rotation animations work, no redraw problems, smooth transition animations, stable wifi w/ accurate signal indicator, dithering is decent, gallery works, maps work, Facebook works, music works.

The only things that don't work worth noting are:

Camera

Headphone jack

Carrier not being properly identified

Its been a long day so I will try to get it up tomorrow. I haven't finished it yet anyways.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
You guys are awesome! Can't wait to try this one out :-)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
Protekk, aeroevan and the rest of the gang over at rootzwiki deserve the majority of the credit. All I did was put together working parts from different builds to make it work the way it is. They did 90% or more of the work. I don't have a problem giving them the credit they deserve.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HeroOfTime:
rm, you are a class act.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aeroevan:
If you could just let us know which pieces are working we would love to add the fixes to the source: https://github.com/dinc2-ics

I think I have pushed (almost) everything I have there, so anyone can build it and if anyone finds any patches that might help please let me know :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Super excited but a little bummed at the same time. The only thing I really need working is the headphones, I use my phone to listen to music in my car.

I will definitely still give this a whirl whenever you release it just for fun though :)

thanks again everyone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aeroevan:
If you want headphones, just grab /system/lib/hw/audio.primary.msm7x30.so from my most recent build on rootzwiki and replace the one in the build he posts. That should work (I think), but I obviously haven't tested :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
It's cool man, I'll just wait and see if you get it working in your build. I got class all day tomorrow so maybe it will already be patched when I get home :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I will test that and if it works, add it to the rom before posting it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Thanks much, That would be awesome if you got that working.

One more quick thing, I noticed on Protekk's build that the CRT off/on animations are way too quick, if you know how to mod that could you possibly slow it down to the normal speed? If not or if it's would take too long no biggie, just thought I'd ask. :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
They seem fine on my build. Did you maybe set the animations to faster than normal in the developer options?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Nope, all I did was install it for like 10 minutes to play around with, I didn't change anything at all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:

Bookmark sync totally works! My bookmarks from Chrome showed up in my bookmark widget, and I haven't been on my computer in a solid month.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
Is anyone else getting an error with bookmarks sync? I haven't had it work once. RegnierD, what GApps package are you using?

To fix the SD Card mounting problem:

You just need to edit /system/etc/vold.fstab and change the last character from "/mmc3" to "/mmc2". You can "adb remount" and then download and modify and then upload the modified file.

OR, if you didn't follow me but have ADB:

1. Extract /system/etc/vold.fstab from any CyanogenMod release for the Inc2.

2. Run "adb remount"

3. Run "adb push vold.fstab /system/etc"

4. Reboot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PalmerCurling:
I am running the build rm hasn't released yet; headphones are working just fine. The only things I don't have is camera and properly reporting carrier.

There is an occasional graphic glitch in Google music, which is far from show stopping. There is a graphics goof when attempting to open a tar archive with root browser; not a big deal as I can unzip the tar via that and access via astro.

I do not believe that USB mass storage is functional yet but I have not tested it. This is my daily driver, and its fantasmagically wonderful.

I am not going to give one. And only for one reason: I don't want people complaining if it isn't out by then. It SHOULD have been out tonight, but I wasn't able to figure a few things out yet.

With that said.. I am hoping to have it up early tomorrow.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Cool man, that's actually the answer I was looking for when I asked for a "rough" ETA. Thanks and I look forward to the new build :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tk1o48:
Eta's are forbidden
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I don't believe that Bluetooth is working, but I don't have a way to test that.

A few things I am modifying/adding to this build:

-lowering the default auto brightness values to help w/ battery life

-increasing the wifi scan interval to help w/ battery life

-adding a battery calibration script

-Adding some of our custom wallpapers

-better boot animation

-proper carrier identification

-proper SD mounting

-i have not checked if aeroevan's kernel we are using supports init.d scripts. But if it does, I have a few I would like to add

-optimized apk's

-updated APN list

-a few various other things I don't remember.

As a side note to those of you claiming we are "kanging" the rootz guys' work. Here is the definition of a kang as defined by Wikipedia: Kang - A term used for stealing others intellectual property and claiming it as your own. (IE. When the developer of a application, uses another developers work, and then re-posts the original application as their own.)

Last time I checked, we made it very clear that we have used evan and protekk's work. We have not and will not claim it as our own. We have been in contact w/ both of them and have their permission to use their work. So not only are we not claiming it as our own, we also have permission. Please, find something else to do with your time other than placing false accusations. Have a nice day.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] times_infinity:
Are you able to get framework-res.apk to decompile and compile without errors? Because you can edit eri.xml to fix carrier id. Change T-CDMA 64 to Verizon Wireless
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PalmerCurling:
Use baksmali to decompile it.

Don't ask why, just do. Yay being friends with all the themers
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Nice, I was gonna suggest modding the boot animations but didn't think it was that important. Lemme guess, the resolution was incorrect, that's why it looked so fuzzy? The one I am using on my phone right now is perfect because I went into the desc.txt and set the values to "480 800 15

p 0 0 part0" to match our particular phone.

Btw, did you get headphones working now?

Also, from what I have read on rootzwiki you are actually ahead of those guys, they are still requiring you shut off all animations to help with the redraw issues and from what I remember you said you have fixed those with working animations and transitions, correct?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
Essentially we are talking about different bases. Aeroevans build is a different base that incorporates the incredible s egl fixes and is a wip
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I personally was not the one that fixed them. I just got the right files put together that made it work. The rootz guys COULD have things working the way I do. They just prefer to work from source. Which is the right way to do it. I just don't have the experience nor the processing power to do that.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I have not been able to get it recompile yet. However, I believe that the problem lies in aapt included in apktool not being the one from sdk 14. I am trying replacing it now.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
Anyone good with compiling/ decompiling framework-res.apk? I have successfully decompiled it, made the edits, and attempted to recompile it. It absolutely will not compile no matter what I do. Here's a pastebin: http://pastebin.com/MZ3M6aWK
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nephilim:
Protekk just released his beta 2, I am gonna wait for your build after reading his OP, apparently you have to turn off all animations for optimal functionality and headphones are still a no-go.

I love all the effort those guys put into getting it working but I don't get the point of full working EGL if you have to turn off the animations anyway. EGL is predominantly to allow for smooth animations and transitions between pages and apps, if they are off anyway might as well not even bother getting EGL to work.

Without the animations all ICS is at this point is a slightly faster gingerbread rom with a different launcher, an improved task manager and a non working camera.

I suppose I just don't understand why they are taking the time to integrate things like quick menu in the notification pull-down and other CM tweaks (which are available on CM7 already) before fixing the issues that are needed to make the rom stable without having to turn things off.

Anyway, I'm not a developer for phones, my knowlege extends only into software and hardware for actual computers so I might just be missing something. Either way, this thread and the one over at wiki are pretty much all I am looking at constantly. Can't wait till these reach the point where I can use them as my daily driver. As always, thanks for the hard work to everyone busting ass daily to push these alphas and betas out to the community :)
