Stupid question, how do you install an apk from the SD without any file browser? :/
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
You sideload a file browser, then install it. Or you could just sideload the apk file. Use this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1063073 to sideload.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Chund3r:
I thought I'd install this on my old Aria to see what ICS was like. My main phone is the Inspire, and the ICS port isn't quite ready yet for daily usage. :)

But, I myself can't get past the HTC Boot screen. Tried multiple times, waited hours each time hoping it was just taking along time. I ofcourse wiped System, Cache, Data, and Dalvik Cache each time. Any ideas?
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
After sucessfully booting ICS, I'm having a problem restoring my nandroid...getting bootloops. I did a full wipe, cleared cache and dalvik partitions, and formatted system partition, then restored the nandroid. No luck. Using CWM 5.0.2.3.

I've tried the process twice. Any suggestions?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Follow the instructions (exactly) in post #17 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19864167#post19864167.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
You might try formatting the boot partition as well before restoring. It sounds like what you're doing should work though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dustinhayes93:
Same exact thing happened to me the first time I used this... Make sure your battery is charged up... and just keep retrying. It eventually worked for me... What I did also before it ended up working was I went into advanced restore and restores everything but boot and tried to boot, of course it wouldnt, and then the next time I tried restoring my backup it worked... Idk I may have just gotten lucky though :confused:
[HTC Aria Android Development] themacman1000:
I tries version 1 out last night and found these bugs: no Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or mobile data. Also no audio/ video and the home button didn't work. Otherwise it ran very smooth!

Flashed Rom

Wiped Cache/Dalvik Cache

Hit Reboot System Now (from inside recovery).

Waited a good 20 mins or longer each time.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Once again... strange. This is the first report of it not working after trying many times. What version of CWM Recovery are you using?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Chund3r:
CWM Recovery 2.5.0.1
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
I flashed it with that and it worked :confused:. You could try re-downloading the file (maybe it was a corrupted download).
[HTC Aria Android Development] Chund3r:
I've already tried that a few times. Just tried it again tho, but no luck. :(
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
It may be that your nandroid backup is corrupted. Try a past one and if that works, well, now you know. Luckily for you, there's a tool somewhere the market to extract data from a nandroid but I dont remember the name.

If it could be corrupted, check your SD card, it may be failing.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Titanium Backup can do this.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
From nandroid files? rly? And you need to be pro or normal?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Yes really. I have the Pro version so I'm not sure about the free version.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
Well I think I found the culprit. A few days before making the nandroid, I flashed a zip with a modified framework-res and systemui, which included a white-ring lock screen style and the new transition animations for ICS. This was causing the boot loop because the modifications were incorporated into the nandroid. So, I used a nandroid I made before flashing the zip and it worked perfectly. It's strange that the zip is causing boot loops now because I did not have a problem with boot loops when I flashed it the first time. Now when I try to flash it, I get boot loops--I've made no changes and am flashing the same zip that previously worked :confused:
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
Tested this out for a little bit today...

Things I noticed:

- The install zip fails to install the kernel (EDIT: Sometimes, apparently. I just tried reflashing and it finally worked). It segfaults (a couple of times actually) while trying to make the boot.img to flash. Lord only knows why it has a zImage and expects to build a boot.img from that. It takes merely seconds to pack a boot.img. Fix: I eventually flashed CM7.1's boot.img, though at first I packed the included zImage. This is probably why people are getting stuck at the hboot/bootloader screen though.

- Wifi won't work on this ROM primarily because one, the version magic between bcm4329.ko and the kernel doesn't match. Two, the firmware files aren't in the ROM . Three, the dhcp and wpa configs are pointed to set up tiwlan instead of eth0. Partial workaround: Use boot.img above, push bcm4329.ko and associated firmware files (again, from CM7.1) to the phone in the appropriate locations and change/push new config files for dhcp and wpa. bcm4329.ko can now be insmod'd, but Android still refuses to bring up Wifi inside the settings menu. Am I missing something here?

- The init service was complaining about not finding "/system/bin/brcm_patchram_plus". Fix: Pulled a copy of it from CM7.1, pushed it to the phone and set permissions. Side effect: Bluetooth started working. (EDIT: Silly me. Forgot that I also put bcm4329.hcd in the firmware directory).

- Home key was not going to home screen. Fix: Pulled /system/usr/keylayout/liberty-keypad.kl from CM7.1 (seeing a pattern yet?), pushed it to the phone, and deleted all of the other kl files in the directory, except AVCRP.kl, h2w_heaset.kl, and qwerty.kl.

- Phone doesn't work. "SIM card added, please restart" dialog repeatedly appears, only to die, vanish, and reappear a couple minutes later. Tried to toggle airplane mode as suggested earlier, but to no avail. Only way to get it to stop is to remove Phone.apk.

- Sensors don't work. Partial workaround: Copy sensors.liberty.so from (CM7.1's) /system/lib/hw/ (while you're there, copy gps.liberty.so and lights.liberty.so). Screen rotation now works, but it rotates the wrong way (screen is upside down). GPS might also work now, but I didn't test.

So far, that's just about everything I've tried. Well, except trying to get the GPU to work by copying the EGL libs from CM, but that was a tale of frustration and not getting anywhere.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
.

For those who liked the ICS look, there's this CM7 theme that matches it very well. I like it better than the Honeycomb one, specially that it's designed for MDPI.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sonny.theme.icsmdpi
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:
I had that as my theme until I ran in to a small issue with cm7. so i switched out for a gingersense rom till they fix the build bot.
[HTC Aria Android Development] SoCalHTCFuze:
Nice work ZeroSigea! On the phone not working, it will actually work once the carrier is detected so you may want to add that back. It is something to do with the carrier detection method timing out. Testing your findings.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
Guys, a thought just occurred. Isn't the Eris(the phone that this ROM was originally meant for) a CDMA device, not GSM?

That probably explains why the phone process is crapping itself repeatedly.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
It's for the Wildfire afaik. Anyhow, I'm not having any of those SIM card problems.
[HTC Aria Android Development] themacman1000:
Really? Cuz when I flash it in CWM it says something like "ICS For Droid Eris" maybe it's a leftover from something? Idk...

[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
It's from the Wildfire. Are you sure you didn't see "ICS for Buzz"?

Reverse tethering works on this rom :D (It also works on other roms for the Aria). It can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371345.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dustinhayes93:
I think it was ported from Eris, to wildfire, to the aria xD
[HTC Aria Android Development] JazzyCarr0t:
I can confirm that it said ICS for Eris. Maybe this is why it isn't booting for some people.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dustinhayes93:
Wi-Fi

They have wifi working on one of the Wildfire ports... And I believe we have same chip as them, so maybe we can have wi-fi soon
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
Yeah, it was definitely meant for the Eris at some point in time. /system/lib/hw/ was full of DesireC hardware libs. Hmm, well, I'm back to square one as far as the phone problem goes, guess I'll fiddle around with it later. Again, any ideas on the wifi? Does anyone how Android activates wifi (specifically calling insmod and inserting the wifi driver)? I've searched just about everywhere I can think of, and can't find anything that controls the wifi module insertion/removal.

Also here is the download link for my copy of the update.zip with my fixes.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
<3>[ 214.235961] bcm4329: version magic '2.6.35.14-InfinityPLAY+ preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.35.13-cyanogenmod preempt mod_unload ARMv6 '

theres your problem for wifi :p
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
Is that from the update.zip that I posted? Because if it is, then that's strange as all hell, because I swore I pulled the kernel module straight from the CM7.1 update.zip. Also, have you tried manually insmod-ing it? The reason I ask is because when I try to turn on WiFi, I would see that same kernel message as well, but if I "insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko" the module loads with no such message.
[HTC Aria Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Needs a new kernel built I think.

What is the kernel string , go to settings -> about phone.

If the wildfire kernel is on this then I can compile Aria kernel with touchscreen fix and wifi fix for ICS.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
it boots fine & works fine with my 891 kernel

i didnt try insmod :/

also needs the wifi firmware, and a few things in /bin im thinking
[HTC Aria Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Using TeamICS patches you can compile for armv6, you should try it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kabell4:
Forgive my ignorance, why is reverse teathering helpful?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
People who depend on Wifi for their internet access could use it (since wifi is not yet working in the rom).
[HTC Aria Android Development] dustinhayes93:
Yea. Unless an actual dev starts working on this there wont be much progress. I'm no dev so I can't do much more =/
[HTC Aria Android Development] theROMinator:
glad to see my old aria has an ics port :)

Too bad my infuse doesnt ..
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
im confused is there no boot.img in this rom??
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
*facepalm* Dude, I'm not repeating myself. See post 67. I'm not trying to sound like an ass, but please read.

Also, I've made a modified update.zip of this ROM that *does* use a boot.img. It currently has CM7.1's boot.img. See post 80.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
sorry, i mostly skimmed :\

you talked of wifi issues, seemed like a few things missing in /bin and some firmware files -could- fix it, files could be found in cm7

i would much rather build from source than cooking up a huge "nasty tasting" mess, thats prob. giving more of a headache than is necessary

if i was pointed in the way of ics building for armv6 devices as the other person was talking about i can gladly play around, lil miss aria is just sitting around getting no love :(
[HTC Aria Android Development] ZeroSigea:
It's cool.

Yeah, I agree. This patchwork job isn't really going to help things in the long run. *sigh* Time to break down, fetch the source and see if we can't build something.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dustinhayes93:
Agreed. This was really just "proof" that we could get ICS.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Karting06:
To build, you can use the drivers of cm to build for Aria.

[HTC Aria Android Development] zhuoyang:
Hey drowning,

I am always interested in building ics from source, but same as you , i don't have the way to build from source.

I just know that it need to apply some patch from here:

https://github.com/TeamICS

But I don't know how to apply those patch.

I am very sure if we successfully build from source, it will be faster and not-so-much problem than a triple port

If you have some clues why not just share it,

I hope you take some time and continue your development in HTC Aria

[HTC Aria Android Development] tgpqaz:
Great Job!

Took a few trys, but i got it working on my old aria. Since my atrix has not gotten a true Ice cream sandwich rom yet, this is a nice preview. It recognizes my sim card but says i need to reboot to join the network, after restarting it prompts me again. I would have liked to test drive the updated web browser and other such features but this is not my main phone so I am not desperate to do so. Also the home button is not working, all the other soft buttons do, it works in CM7, from which i downloaded and installed this rom.
[HTC Aria Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Home button is kernel related.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ninestraycats:

The home button doesn't work and downloading apps from the Market doesn't work either. The main problem I believe is that calling doesn't work at all. Whenever you try to call or whenever you get an incoming call, it gives a message saying that the phone app has crashed. But good work on the wifi and bluetooth fix. Most of the GingerSense roms don't even have that fixed.

-Wifi takes forever to scan and sometimes it works

-Pretty fast (I was surprised it worked at all...)

-Receiving calls works

-GAPPS link works...downloaded it from my phone's CM7 rom

-Phone signal bar seemed to be broken but now works after I connected to wifi. Now, my wifi bar seems to be broken (no bars) but i'm not fully sure

-Wifi Works (on my WPA router)

-Gmail works (but crashes unexpectedly)

-Camera does not work

-No radio installed

-Browser opens and starts to sync with google account but thats it...

-Keyboard does not have symbols

I will post more of what I find later but so far, I think the developer(s) is/are doing an excellent job with the rom. So, Thank YOU!

ICS v5 is lookin good. I just wish WiFi worked. It can see all the nearby AP's but won't connect to any of em. I noticed earlier posts by folks noticing fiddling with their SIM settings changed their WiFi behavior. I wonder if the lack of a SIM is interfering with WiFi behavior?
