If our phone can tell if the keyboard has been slid out, how do we tell it to turn the lights on as well? This of course will not help the battery if its sunny but I would rather it work always than never. I know this isn't a real solution but it could be temporary.

If you can send me your APN info I will add it to the apns-conf.xml file for alpha #3.

Oh and does anyone else notice the livewallpapers don't work correctly with touch when in landscape. To see what I mean use the nexus live wallpaper and press the background. Just a bug report incase it hasn't been noticed :]

I saw my apn is appear in the apns-conf.xml, the carrier is "CSL", everytime i reboot, the phone app will fc mintues and say "cant detect sim card, switching to cdma....", actually i tried use my own apns-conf.xml, same result.

PS. Tried edit build.prop-> network mode to 3

Tried *#*#info#*#* -> gsm (prl)

Tried self add APN in setting, nothing appear
[Motorola Droid 3] porky101:
i don't know if anyone else has this, but when I installed Alpha #2 i noticed that there are 2 Gallery apps and 2 Music ones(the old music app and the new one)
[Motorola Droid 3] Karatektus:
I just tried this one and noticed that it was very zippy on the first look, but as soon as I filled up my homescreen with shortcuts it became laggy when switching homescreens.. :/
[Motorola Droid 3] rvschuil:
After changing the build.prop and apns, try wiping data & cache. That fixed it for me last time.
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
not sure if it is just me but in alph 1 and 2 i get alot of static when i make or receive any calls thru bluetooth.

i've wiped everything even tried re-installing a couple times and even tried a different bluetooth headset. no matter what i wipe/reset/re-install it all ends up the same result. with static on all calls both ways. i hear static and so does the caller

Just wanted to see if anyone else has run into similar issue, and maybe see if hash can look into it. Thanks in advance
[Motorola Droid 3] joeyx2:
There's a build-prop edit I seen a while back ago to do this. Cant remember were it was but I will try to search for it. It was for another phone but it worked for me. I wasn't on CM but it was an additional build.prop edit so maybe it could work.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Droid 2 Global has their usb working. If i remember right people here were still having issues with usb so maybe you could look at their code HASH n see if that will help =]

quick question regarding the "DO NOT LET GOOGLE RESTORE SETTINGS" on the first page.

I am assuming I should not allow google to sync with my contacts or is this okay to do?
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
i let it restore my contacts. actually i think i let it restore everything, but i kno contacts for sure
[Motorola Droid 3] gierso:
I think it refers to the backup account make and ask you to restore when you re add the account on wipe.

has anyone had the issue with trying to update Maps or Music through the Market...i keep on getting an error saying that the package has not been signed correctly?
[Motorola Droid 3] jorgonv:
To update music I uninstalled it then reinstalled through market. For maps it is probably the same thing, but I'm not sure
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
I've been using Maps 4.4 for the longest time (last version without the permanant search bar). It seems to be incompatible with ICS. Won't install on my Xoom with ICS either. Crap!
[Motorola Droid 3] jojo4747:
I know how you feel, google has been kinda overdoing it with the permanent search bars
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
hey guys. so far the keyboard issue i fhave found a fix but the keyboard backlight will remain on all the time, gets set back afte reboot though. im going to keep looking more into it... Does anyone know how to set permissions so the system can no longer modify the file?

[Motorola Droid 3] BrettKoster:
I've been having a lot of trouble with the emmc not detecting for whatever reason. I have tried JasonOT's work around without success (throw in a blank SDCard). I am curious if I have possibly missed something and this issue was solved (or maybe few people are having an issue with the emmc?)

In the case that the issue is still present, I found something that looks useful, but I would like a second opinion from someone who is better at this. This is a link from CM7.1 for the Nook Color, but apparently the Nook Color was having a similar issue. http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,7474

edit: On a different note about this issue. I am using Root Browser and I browsed to the /mnt/emmc folder and it has no Read, Write, or Execute permission enabled, along with /mnt/sdcard-ect which has no permissions what so ever. Do these affect the issue? (Sorry if this is old news)
[Motorola Droid 3] micron:
Hi

After last soft crash and reload ICS go CDMA network after back to GSM mode not list a APN
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
What did you just say ?
[Motorola Droid 3] micron:
After breaking down and restarts disappeared APN config and switch to a CDMA network.

Restart again and it was on CDMA.

applied the this: * # * # info # * # * -> gsm (prl)

and then restarted and appears APN config.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
i tried that, it still changed after a reboot

how do i do this ?
[Motorola Droid 3] casrocks:
My apologies if this has been brought up in the forums before, but is anyone else having trouble with the internal SD card? External is fine for me, but it doesn't even recognize my internal memory? Is this a known issue? Or is it just my deal haha any help would be great

[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
So sick!! I can't wait till the phone and audio get fixed, so I can play too! I work in a financial firm, and making and receiving calls is vital, so I can't really tinker around until the Alpha stage. The progress looks fantastic though Hash! Thanks for all your hard work!!
[Motorola Droid 3] lunacie:
Absolutely amazing work. Got ICS up and running, smooth & fast. Now I'm hooked. I can't wait to see it blossom!

I'm happy to help with testing, eagerly awaiting this as a daily driver.
[Motorola Droid 3] jojo4747:
Great build, on xda right now from it, i find the browser to be much more faster, but i cant seem to find out how to get the sd card working. Do any of you know how to mount it

Hey Hashcode, booted up on my xt860 running the Brazil 2.3.5 no network connection at all(although I'm having the same issue with cm7) landscape and portrait are reversed had to open the keyboard to get it in portrait. Otherwise runs beautiful

god job Hashcode!

but de batery life its bad

[Motorola Droid 3] rvschuil:
Very impressed by what you got to work already. It may be far from done, but it sure is awesome already! Incredible how smooth ICS runs. Especially the browser. Whoah.
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
This is incredible. The browser alone is off the chain!

Beers donated. Keep up the great work!
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Yes it is. ICS is such a huge improvement over GB... it's crazy. I think I'll even be using the stock Launcher, works great and looks awesome.
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Look and performance is great. It seems to jump into action prior to even touching a button. I'm hopeful battery life improves over CM7 builds, which is the main reason I've stuck with Blur based ROMs.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
i completely forgot about audio last night so i wedged the phone next to a glass on my nightstand, 630 this morning I have a successful "ring" -- thank goodness. I was able to OC to 1.2 and 1.3 using this and produced 82 mflops. browser is fast too. i too like the stock launcher :D im excited
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
It's definitely the biggest upgrade yet. I remember being so psyched about GB and all its speed improvements. By now GB is extremely mature and is really fast. But just went you think things can't get anymore efficient and fast, they drop a bombshell!

I didn't think scrolling and browsing could get any smoother after all the tweaks I made, but ICS blows it out of the water.

It does. One thing I noticed, but didn't have much time to play with, was the wallpapers did not scroll. Did they make that optional or something?
[Motorola Droid 3] Accophox:
Nope, they definitely scroll. At least on the CM9 build for Nexus S.
[Motorola Droid 3] jellman:
hey guys

so i tried flashin cm9 last night 5 times. i got it working just fine w/o gapps but when i flash gapps i get stuck at setup. i tried goin into development and alowing 1 process to run and immediatly destry activitys and tried killing the setup also tried that 1234 finger around the setup screen to bypass. can someone help me?
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I'm not sure I'd mess with gapps yet. I noticed that the build becomes pretty unstable once their installed. It might have to do w/ gtalk running in the background looking for the camera, etc. Not sure.
[Motorola Droid 3] donwhall70:
I didn't have any problems with setup with the ICS gapps. The phone did seem to run a tad sluggish though, not sure if that was caused by gapps being installed or not. New Gmail looks pretty cool :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
I notice that the 'B' key is not working on the physical keyboard.
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
Internal mounts as emmc. It threw me for a loop too, but it should be there in your file explorer.
[Motorola Droid 3] casrocks:
Thanks a ton for your response, but why wouldn't android recognize it even if it is mounted as emmc? I don't know a whole lot about SD card types but shouldn't it respond the same way? It won't pull up any music in the music app or pics in the gallery? Is there a work around to have native apps recognize them? Thanks again!

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G running ICS Cm9 beta!
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
My gallery worked right away, it seemed to take foreva to load them though. Did you have your pictures saving internally or externally? I have the same issue with the music app but you should use the new google music as it eliminates the need to have the music on your phone. Sorry I couldn't help better

took a while to write. hope you guys like it!
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
Read it earlier today... it was really well done!!! Thank you for all your contributions to the community kshen! :)
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
if anybody is wondering, Hash is on vacation. He is out and about, we will likely not receive an update for AT least 2 days. Likely 3.
[Motorola Droid 3] casrocks:
Ummm some were saved externally, but most were saved internally. For me Im not quite ready to dive head first into cloud computing as 3g in the area I live is spotty and I often have to rely on edge.. also before I flashed my games I backed up in TitaniumBU which were also saved on my internal so I couldnt restore.

Does this mean that with this Rom you cannot even use your internal storage to store any of your data? Music, Pics, etc.? Its not listed under bugs so Im assuming its either permanent or wont be dealt with for a long period of time. Again if I way off base here sorry for ignorance! ;) haha
[Motorola Droid 3] lunacie:
I can use internal & external storage no problem in alpha 2.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
As a heads up, I am making a change to the SD card setup for Alpha #3:

ICS/CM9 will now mirror the Motorola setup

internal sd space = /sdcard

external sd card = /sdcard-ext

I normally wouldn't buck th CM system, however, I'd like to accomodate those folks that don't have an external SD card and are seeing issues in apps requiring the "/sdcard" folder for storage.

NOTE: For this reason the upcoming Alpha #3, will require a complete data wipe.

Thoughts on this change? Potential downsides of going with the stock setup?
[Motorola Droid 3] gierso:
well i as a rule wipe on every update to start fresh :P

well i dont have a SDCARD so that setup will do well to me. :P

maybe you can explain where to switch them for the ones who want the SD as sdcard and internal as SDEXT as i think Phone is happier with SDCARD
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
With TiBu, as long as you have an external SD card inserted you can browse to the emmc directory to restore your apps.

Run TiBu -> Preferences -> Backup Folder Location, then use the Back button to move up the directory tree so you can get to /mnt/emmc.

I've been using Google Music, so I can't comment on if/how to get regular Music to recognize the /mnt/emmc directory. As far as I've been able to see, the Gallery app won't recognize it.

edit: I guess the second half of this is unnecessary, I should read the very end of the thread before posting. :o

Anyway, sounds like alpha 3 will fix the above issues like I assumed.
[Motorola Droid 3] brandonmangan:
I'd appreciate the stock set up, although I didn't spend much time trying to find a workaround google music not finding anything on emmc was a drawback for me. Considering I always wipe data that's no problem here. Thanks for your dedication Hashcode, being able to show people ICS has helped me sale quite a few people on the nexus at work (bestbuy mobile). Converting apple users like I'm a google grand inquisitor.
[Motorola Droid 3] edmann:
I haven't used TiBu since CM 7 alpha. But I did have My Backup Pro, and have use it in the last two HashCode Roms CM7 & CM9. I miss TiBu, but have been busy with no time to fiddle. I read the great review on our HashCode's ICS. I remember poor battery life when I didn't close out actions I had initiated. The rom would after a while, play back pages in the browser I had opened, apps I didn't close cause I use "Home" instead of "back", and I had poor battey preformance during that time. If I'm neat and thorough with my commands, battery life with this rom is really pretty good. Can I say beta?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Better more compatible then less compatible if that makes Sence. I say buck away! To bad that a recovery/rom couldn't house both setup styles and just ask the user to choose on startup..

Thanks for all you do hash, may you and your family have a killler new year!

I thought everyone might enjoy this little gem... The ICS Messaging app, inverted! I'm running it right now, and it looks pretty good (much nicer than the stock white). Just rename the current Mms.apk to Mms.bak, and install the new apk as you normally would. Enter the app, hit the menu button, go to settings, and scroll down to the "black background" option. I'm really glad I found this...enjoy guys! :D

This isn't specific to this ROM, CM7 does this a lot as well. A reboot always solves it for me.
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
For those of you suffering from the internal SD/EMMC issue, and impatient for alpha 3, I found a fix for now:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12844337&postcount=5

You have something similar to:

# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 3 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2

Just swap where it says emmc and sdcard, and rename the old "sdcard" portions to "sdcard-ext"

# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device

dev_mount sdcard-ext /mnt/sdcard-ext auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 3 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2

I used ES to open the file, used the ES Note Editor to edit and save it.

Now your internal storage will show up at /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard like it should, and the external sdcard will show up at /mnt/sdcard-ext. Gallery app doesn't seem to want to look outside of /sdcard, not sure about any other apps. It's just a temp fix until Hashcode has alpha 3 up anyway.
[Motorola Droid 3] micron:
a question for Hashcode: how to install my kernel in your Build
[Motorola Droid 3] oostah:
Have you tried to catch him on twitter?
[Motorola Droid 3] micron:
I do not have twitter account.
[Motorola Droid 3] jayklx:
we can't install a non-stock kernel until moto unlock the bootloader.
[Motorola Droid 3] micron:
oki thanks for reply
[Motorola Droid 3] phhusson:
Or someone cracks the bootloader, or someone gets kexec to work, or ...
[Motorola Droid 3] volcanomike:
Does anyone know if the D3 passes radio information through the bootloader?
[Motorola Droid 3] oostah:
it shows in your sig that you have a droid 3 running cm9 alpha 2. have had any luck flashing the kernel?

i have tried 2 of them cm7 kernel 023 ext 4 1.4 ghz and the GB kernel 023 ext 4 1.4 ghz there was no change they showed they flashed fine.
[Motorola Droid 3] bonesjones:
D3= locked bootloader = no flashing kernels.

All were able to do is flash cm9 using the gingerbread kernel. Which is why hashcodes job is so difficult, yet amazing results so far.
[Motorola Droid 3] oostah:
yes he is amazing. i can say that i have never been able to run 1.3hz from the kernel tweak for the droid 3. but after flasging some of them kernels i can run the 1.3 tweak so there must be some thing in the kernel that dose change some thing.
[Motorola Droid 3] jorgonv:
I found an early version of CMSettings.apk for ICS. It only has a couple of options right now (enable/disable notification widgets, back light settings)

Just flash in recovery
[Motorola Droid 3] bonesjones:
The only ones I know about are temparory changes and are lost after reboot, you can do a start up script. But if I remember you lose the ability to auto throttle. So if you tweak to 1.3 ghz, then it stays at 1.3 and that'd be a battery disaster. Could be wrong but that's my understanding.

So this whole kexec thing how impossible is it? I read that some atrix dev had it up no idea how much was usable or built. But, he did attempt it and with as many Brilliant devs behind the D3 could we not attempt this feat? I understand the challenge but what could us some of us have a year or two left seems like ample time to me.
