About the market fc's...

As we know market crashes with a null pointer exception from within class Nfc$IcsNfcHandler.

I'm currently back on a runny sense Rom. Here the market 3.4.4 works. But I did a logcat report while using the market and found this:

E/dalvikvm(32580): Could not find class 'com.google.android.finsky.utils.Nfc$IcsNfcHandler', referenced from method com.google.android.finsky.utils.Nfc.getHandler

Seems like the class Nfc$IcsNfcHandler is just missing in the sense Rom. Which throws an exception but no FC! Now the question is how to remove that class from the ics builds? I don't even know where it would be located? Is it part of vending?

Maybe one of the devs can work with that...
[HTC Desire S] admds:
I've tried it. For me it was a bit laggy and buggy. Whether or not this is down to the trebuchet launcher itself or because the rom is still in beta. I went back to the original launcher pretty much straight away as I find it perfectly smooth.

Loving ICS. This has already become my main rom. Well done Google for creating ICS an thank you superkid for this already great but soon to be an amazing rom.
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
i looked around in Galaxy Nexus forum and in many roms the problem of fb sync is sorted...is there any idea to bring it to us?

How to fix Market 3.4.4

After some research on how to decode apk's and looking at the code I finally found the fix for market 3.4.4 on our device. Well. At least I hope so :D

It's pretty simple. Delete the following file with a root explorer:

/etc/permissions/android.hardware.nfc.xml

You could also back it up to sd (just in case).

Then reboot and...

enjoy your market!

cheers

(hell yea, it feels a bit dev-like)
[HTC Desire S] hotpointdave:
nice rom coming along here... ive tried this beta on desire s and so far superkid and medeejay has done a super job... please keep this amazing work up and happy new year to ya both.
[HTC Desire S] admds:
Hi folks. I've discovered a work around for emails with the beta 7. With the built in Gmail and email applications the majority of us have experienced the split screen problem.

After some experimenting I discovered that k9 mail works perfectly. There is no split screen at all and all emails display as they should.

Until the HTML problem is resolved I think this will work fine as a temporary alternative.

Keep up the good work super kid and mdeejay.
[HTC Desire S] :
Well figured out! Thanks!

can we flash it over beta 7r1??
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
MDJ, you told me in a PM to me that you were using the CM frameworks:

Have you scrapped that in favour of the AOSP framework now?
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
yeah. im using both. synced aosp today for test mic ;)
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Gotchya, was just curious =)
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
but #94 based on aosp :p

Huawei U8860 has an official ICS beta build out. Same GPU as our Desire S. Maybe someone could pull some drivers or look at how they're put together and develop their own.
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
same gpu drivers already in our kernel..

same adreno libs in our rom too
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
did a full wipe but when i try to restore my backup with titanium...my phone freezes...just had to remove battery

Flashed over beta7r1 without full wipe. I also had a crash when I started titanium. Had to remove battery as well. At the next boot I had some weird graphical glitches on lock screen.

[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
thanks.

but browser still looks like **** :(

others glitches gone.

gradients looks awesome
[HTC Desire S] admds:
Great work guys.

I know were all aware of it but using firefox or opera etc. is a simple work around (minus flash of course) for the browser issue and regarding emails, i found that K-9 mail is fine and doesnt have the split screen problem.

I'm loving ICS and having it on my Desire S is amazing. really appreciate all of the time all the devs put into all the ROMs.

Cant press the Thanks button enough.
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Like I said in a PM to you:

USE_OPENGL_RENDERER := false

The OGL renderer is from msm8x60, it's not fully functional on msm7x30 yet.

My CM9 builds disable it and all the webkit based apps (Browser, GMail, etc) are fine.
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
yes. but i love gradients :D

i will try webkit from caf
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Without OpenGL the gradients are broken even with the patch?
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
not tested :)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
They're the same. If you have clicked on the beta8r1 link you have seen that's the same download.

Somehow in this latest beta, power notification is gone. Any way to have it back or for now we stick to Widgetsoid?
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Love the gradients but ROM seems a bit unstable now. Had multiple sudden reboots mostly on titanium but also on flashlight?! Lots of errors showing up in DDMS.

And titanium not working is a showstopper for me...
[HTC Desire S] admds:
Same here. I've resorted back to my back up of beta 7 for now. I tried titanium backup a second time to give it the benefit of the doubt, it got a little further into starting the application but then froze and I had to hard reset (volume up+down and power button).

Hope you find a solution.

Keep up the good work.
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
yeah. something wrong with su
[HTC Desire S] admds:
Is anybody having a problem with Google voice. It keeps saying audio problem. I'm back to beta7. I've tried installing the gapps in the original post but that didn't work and it also got rid of the calendar widget.

Is this just me?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
Beta8 is awesome. Nice work .... thanks.

The gradients are amazing ... i also noticed new languages built-in (or maybe it was there before but i didn't notice it, it's awesome anyway).

I don't have problem with titanium or Google voice (as i don't use them!)

Is there's something with the resolution? display feels like cropped !

Also, the launcher does not have "Preference" option as in beta7. I'm unable to hide Google search from pages.

Thank you for the good work. Keep up!

If I remember correctly it was missing from b7r1 as well
[HTC Desire S] faddys123:

Can someone please explain to me what this means? In my world, a CRT is a cathode ray tube!

^^^ This ^^^
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Bill, you're right about CRT meaning Cathode Ray Tube... If you remember, the older TVs had a characteristic blip of the screen where there would be a bright white line, that shrunk to a dot and then disappeared as you switched off the TV...

This was due to the picture tube powering down and loss of collimation for the electron beam fired from the source element onto the backside of the screen. The opposite happened when you switched on the TV.

This effect is popularly knows as the CRT Animation effect, and is the one that had been present in older releases of this ROM, by default...you must have noticed the effect when hitting the power button to turn off your screen...

Hope this answers your question... :)

EDIT: I see shrome already beat me to the answer...(as always!!):(:( Well, the're right when they say a picture is worth a thousand words...a video is even better.:D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
Thank you both. I loved the simplicity of one and the fullness of the other. I've always come across this as the lock screen animation. I live and learn.

Thanks mate, and that's the very reason I don't want to wipe anything. Just wanna make sure it's okay to do so

Originally tried beta 8 after a full wipe and had to revert back to beta 7. Thought I would give it another go without wiping data.

Gets around the titanium problem for temp and I'm loving the gradients. Great work guys.

As a bonus my Google voice has started to work :-).

Keep up the amazing work you guys are doing.
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
Yep, voice input works (without headphones! ) in b8r1.

Just connected my phone to my car. Can't get the car to control anything else than the default music player :(. When I play music in Songbird it plays fine, but as soon as I use one of the bluetooth controls it starts the default music player.

I tried disabling the default player from the Android settings, but then the bluetooth controls didn't work at all.

By the way: transferring my contacts took about 10 seconds. With every previous rom (with and without Sense) it took minutes! Much faster in ICS :)

It was said before. The "Preference" menu is part of the Launcher not the ROM itself. Till now it was used the launcher from CM9 (the so called Trebunchet Launcher). Now m-deejay is using AOSP version, that comes with the standard ICS Launcher that does not have that option.
