i am trying out this rom.. it is definitely smoother than the other rom. But i faced a problem, i am unable to download and install whatsapp from the market. Though i have enough space to install it on my internal memory, the message that is given was not enough memory. I think this is due to the 5mb of cache in the Cm7r2 hboot. Is there a way to symlink such that apps from the market are downloaded to the sdcard before installation?
[Desire General] itachi1706:
Use terminal emulator and try this. (Alternatively use adb shell)

su

cd /cache/

rm -R download

mkdir /mnt/asec/marketcache

ln -s /mnt/asec/marketcache download

chown -h system.cache download

See if this works or not.

This didn't work for me
[Desire General] erklat:
Because you started spamming the other thread with pointless questions. The need for clean thread where those actively participating in development could obtain information needed without roaming the endless posts about something which could hardly benefit the development warrants the need for a new thread. This should be done the first day they started with this project.
[Desire General] nozzla:
Any ideas why i cannot flash the gapps or superuser or kernel zip files, after flashing the cm7 version?

Cheers
[Desire General] Fade:
Where are you trying to flash from? I have no problems flashing the above from Clockword Recovery. You cannot flash gapps and kernel from running rom because you need superuser for this to work...
[Desire General] guy_smiley:
I believe there's a requirement for recovery based on CWM. So either CWM or EXT4
[Desire General] nozzla:
Well I can't get access to superuser and can't flash that in recovery so I can't use cwm. I had to install cm7 version of ics.

Are there any details of how the hw hack works? Some patches perhaps? Would be helpful so we can try on other devices too

ICS 035 HW CM7r2 - review

Hi All,

I installed CM7r2 version on my S-Off desire with 1.5gb ext4

- Unable to install apps from market.

- Unable to re-store apps in Titanium backup

- Read/Write/Gallery/Calander/Wifi/3G all work fine

- Overall the ROM is quite fast

- Sound Effects also work in music system

- Battery life seems good

Please someone help me install apps.

Maybe you specifically didn't, but at the same time you took the liberty of representing a group that did, therefore such behavior seems to have your approval. Learn to read between the lines.
[Desire General] nozzla:
is there a different kernel for the cm7 version?
[Desire General] nozzla:
so i have it all sorted apart from Wifi which i am guessing is a kernel issue, but whenver i try to flash it just says its "bad". any ideas?
[Desire General] sjknight413:
Nope, just use the same kernel as the stock version. should be thalamus' r3
[Desire General] itachi1706:
Try redownloading the Rom. It may be a bad download.

[Desire General] hypergamer1231:
Ok i am extremely sorry to ask this question because a lot of you will laugh or rather abuse me but i am from the galaxy ace section and we ve also had an ics port. Even the ace has an adreno 200. I know its super dumb to ask but this hack how can it be modified to work on ace if someone can please shed some light i just wish to help fellow xda devs working on ics for galaxy ace sorry again. Also if i flash this will my phone die forever please do reply thank you :(
[Desire General] itachi1706:
I'm no developer but from what I could tell, the HW hack is just the Adreno 200 libraries which you can put into ace without any problems I believe. No mod needed as both phones are Adreno 200. However, I believe you do need a kernel with HW acceleration enabled. Exactly how to do that you would have to ask the devs on the main thread (this isn't the main thread). And I presume that you are trying to ask if you can flash this rom for desire on the ace. The answer is no and I recommend you don't try this. Rule of thumb is to not flash anything that's not meant to be for your device.

I've using my NG for a week now and still trying to figure out how to copy/paste.

I see the check mark come up when I highlight text but I can't figure out how to get the text to copy. I tap the check mark but doesn't seem to do anything.

Any good YouTube videos or anything that show how to do this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Skysurfer69:
It's not the check mark you want, next to the words "select all" you'll see an icon that looks like two pages, clicking that will show a dialogue at the bottom of your screen saying, "text copied to clipboard". Pressing and holding again will give you the option to paste.

Any sense 3.5 is not smooth on its own, but you need to apply mods like Rom cleaner and supercharger script, swap partition and after applying all these mods, I've ran all 3.5 roms like virtuous affinity and rcmix3d butter smooth.

Talking of unity, I've ran it without lag without any modifications.
[G2 and Desire Z General] GrievousMcG:
Good thread.

Just wondering, in your opinion which of these roms you reckon meet the following criteria:

CPU: clocked to 1ghz

Nice graphic design - nothing bare boned otherwise I'll get bored of it very quickly

Leaves a bit of juice in the battery after a long day

(I realized that increasing the CPU and asking for a rom with nice graphics is not going to so much for the battery but thought I'll throw it out there anyway)

The reason I asked is that after nearly a year I'm getting bored of my HTC Desire Z which is currently running stock gingerbread: 2.3.3 and Sense: 2.1.

So I would like to put a new rom onto it based on the above criterias.

Also this will be new to me as I have never installed a custom made rom on the phone before. So yeah, I'm a noob.

cheers and apologies if I'm highjacking this thread....
[G2 and Desire Z General] rirozizo:
i recommend CM7 (stable... NO nightlies) for you... since you are new at this: CM7.1 (not the nightly) is the stable ROM, fast, almost looking good (you can get themes)... ILWT CM7 is a nightly ROM (nightlies are like "beta"... may not be stable) this ROM is a litttle better than CM7.1... it has an overclockable kernel for you to have a 1GHz CPU clock (like mine)

[G2 and Desire Z General] trees247:

[G2 and Desire Z General] GrievousMcG:
Thanks guys!

So to confirm, you can use both CM7 and MIUI to boost the cpu to 1ghz?
[G2 and Desire Z General] WTF?:
exactly, that is why it is lightning fast and has mucho free RAM and yet has unbelievable battery life - other ROMs compromise one or more of these!
[G2 and Desire Z General] enserio:
I think I can say I've tried EVERY G2 Rom for a year now, and ILWT is the gotdamn bees knees. When I found out that tsubus was contributing (albeit minimally) to the ICS projects, I sent him a pm to let him know I'm glad he is a part of it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] blk_jack:
If you're going to post benchmark scores, at least do it for all the roms listed.

That being said,I just scored 2732 @ 1GHz on antutu using bulletproof miui so I'm not really sure why you even list the numbers if at least one of the other roms seems to beat it. Albeit not by much, but still, if you're posting those numbers as proof that it's the fastest ROM, you should show numbers for everyone listed there..

Just a thought
[G2 and Desire Z General] rirozizo:
those numbers doesn't proove anything... i posted those numbers just as info.... because i spent alot of time with it, so i'm giving all info i can give to it... plus 2732 isn't that big of a difference... ILWT is just mire customizable than MIUI, more professional... at the cost of 3 points though ;)

EDIT: btw, i'm not posting benchmarks for other ROMs, i didn't benchmark it and i'm not flashing these ROMs again just to run a benchmark... if you want guys, give me your benchmark numbers for the other ROMs and i'll post them... all i need is one number for each ROM

thank you!

[G2 and Desire Z General] convolution:
wdf are u guys talking about when u talk about "customization?"

as far as I know, you can OC ur CPU with a lot of kernels that can be ran in a lot of roms.

as for launchers, go launcher ex can be used for all roms.

contacts, dialers, music player are all app-replaceable...

Perhaps u are talking about the ILWT settings (aka cyanogen mod settings)?

To me, that is not a good enough reason to put a ROM above other ROMs...

btw im using CM7.1

cuz i flashed it when it came out and I tried ILWT and sense and miui and the AOSP romns are similar, sense 3.5 lags.

btw, if anyone can guide me to run sense 3.5 butter smooth it would be appreciated.

sense 3.5 roms look amaazing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] noob15:
Thank you my point exactly I have no idea what customizations he is talking about. From what he said it's overlooking an modifying every look of the rom. Yes I read your first post and that's all you said. The btw on miui I can overcooked to not a magical thing and another gave me 2865 first time and I was clocked at 900Mhz I can get 3000+, easy then. As well miui has a dedicated theme system which is very easy to use and HIGHLY customizable. Either way both time are really good just miui isn't as simplistic as you make it out to be.

Now onto being helpful to make sense run smoothly there a mainly 2 things you need to do the first is enable swap(which may reduce your sd card's life expectancy by using it as extra ram) at and using the supercharged V6 script. Both of these makes sense 3.5 smooth as butter I switched for the sake of my sd card though so that's is up to you. I a final note is on certain 3.5 rims has a super/ultra smooth option that turns 3d in the launcher off which is pretty good as well, and and deleted unessesary apps via titanium.

Currently on my phone so I can't post links I'll try tomorrow if you cannot find them. (Swap can be found in the second post of virtuous affinity thread supercharged a google search can help its somewhere on xda)

Hope this helps

[G2 and Desire Z General] noob15:
OK have you used miui more than 0.2 seconds you would know miui is nothing like iphone and only people who are ignorant to the different functionality of miui would say they are the same. Sure the default theme is iphoneish(not really but to each their own) but guess what there is a whole theme store dedicated to different things that is nothing like iphone. Saying miui is ios is the same as saying all android is ios ex. I my friend who's an apple fanatic claims android steals everything from iphone. I I showed him my customized miui and he admitted it looked nothing alike.

In short miui is far from being a iphone knockoff

Sidenote it is entirely possible to mimic ios on miui though but that's because it has the option to and you choose how it looks.

Another thing it still has full customization of android and can look like iphone or whatever else you want it to look like.

In short your argument: miui looks like iphone therefore it's iphone therefore it has no customization.

Answer: miui is android and can easily look like whatever YOU want.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
Sense still has a superior dialer to most of all stock roms have to offer anytime.

it also has better integration of fb and twitter which also extends to their widgets that are absolutely well made.

Not to mention there are plenty of weather widgets out there that are similar to 3.0's widget. And yes, i believe you can get sense 3.0 some widgets. I'm not sure if weather is part of it, but you can integrate various parts of 3.0 into 2.1. You just have to do some research.
[G2 and Desire Z General] noob15:
Yup +1, also a heads up in the virtuous sense thread in the last 2 pages they indicate how to add the sense 3.0 lockscreen and weather widget to the 2.1 rom.
[G2 and Desire Z General] AntSmoove:
Yes, a superior dailer and I like the contact app better than most as well. I wish I could take those and put them with a fast rom like cm7
[G2 and Desire Z General] ttamirt:
ics contact app is so beautiful, better than any other.
[G2 and Desire Z General] nivlac978:
I have been using Mexdroid for the majority of my time using roms on this phone. I've used most everything else and I always come back to Mexdroid. Nothing is faster and it is the best looking in my opinion. It isn't for everybody but if you want speed AND eye candy then this is the one for you.
[G2 and Desire Z General] javaman83:
I'm a newly converted MIUI guy. I'm running Bulletproof MIUI and I'm loving it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] WTF?:
I would have to disagree, I switched to a Sense Rom just to try this amazing dialer and I like the stock dialer much better, not to mention the stock contact list portion deals with the 450 numbers on my contact list with much faster access than any other dialer except for Rocket Dialer which is similar.

Sense has some app integration that is handy, by just not worth the give-ups in RAM, speed, and especially battery life!

I will stick with the near-stock G-lite 1.07 - it has the best balance of mild overclocking, mucho RAM, and mind blowing battery life! :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] rirozizo:
to be honest, i'm out of arguments... but you didn't make me believe that... honestly

EDIT: removed the missing customization phrase from MIUI, just to let noob15 be happy (i'm a good guy)
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
really? stock dailer can't even do t9 contact look up. that alone will go through you 450 contacts faster than anything the stock dailer can do.

battery life wise, i get a full day easily. The only time i dont get a full day is when i use it as a primary GPS device which would go through my battery in 3 hours of constant GPS usage with google maps (no pre-cached, so constant data use).

speed wise, you didn't say which sense rom you were using. if you were using a sense 3 rom, then it's your screw up. try sense 2.1 roms and you'll see speed increases. Sense 3 was never meant for the DZ and if you force it on the DZ, you're not going to get optimal results.

ram wise, i dont have much a problem, but i dont know what you use, so there lies the problem. I dont have problems with ram at all, i always have around 80-100mb floating around.
[G2 and Desire Z General] noob15:
To be quite honest I am just curious as to why you are saying miui is lacking in customization, was not trying to change your opinion on it as my only reason for badgering you was to understand what you thought it lacked. (This was never an argument of which is better between ILWT, or any cyanogen rom for that matter, and miui as both are amazing roms).

I just wanted to know why your opinion on miui was as such since that is what this threads about really.
