Looks really good!

Launcher and drawer seem faster. Nenamark score increased from 36 to 43 for me. Camera and voice input still don't work. Market 3.4.4 still crashes ;)

@mdeejay: market crashes with some weird NFC null pointer exception. Can't we somehow configure that we don't have NFC on board? I tried to find out myself but have no idea of how to debug market without sources...
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Ok thanks :) I'll stick with beta 6 for now... My market works fine at the moment! :D Don't want to ruin it :)
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
rom has some issues with gradients (wrong bpp)

working on it
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Thanks. M-deejay but browser also isn't working properly for me either. I've attached a screenshot for you

EDIT: Dolphin browser didn't work for me either
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
Browser borked for me too :( hw so smooth though!

[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
yes im using kernel patches from Kali-

and what? :)
[HTC Desire S] hyperdude111:
The new build is great. Almost all of the lag on the homescreen and the lanucher is gone. There's also a few CM goodies included in the notification bar which are useful. 3d apps and games work perfectly, I achieved 42 fps on nenamark1 up from 37 on last build.

On the downside gradients look broken (not a smooth as in the shots) and the browser doesn't render properly.

Thanks to all the devs, this is really fantastic!

Merry Christmas :)
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
And, you're awesome ;)

Now, beta 7 is actually my daily ROM.
[HTC Desire S] rayulove69:
I read almost 1355 posts in a thread.hell i should get some award:P

On a serious note I can't do much but to appreciate you awesome devs that brought this to our device. this device and this forum truly is slight better than the best.when I bought this phone I wasn't sure what developement was gonna go around just had a hunch and im grateful that I had. thank you, you awesome people. im thinking of writing a story of 'life of a desire s' featuring you awesome devs :D:cool:

my heartiest gratitude and ics I am coming back after b4r1 :D
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
and nothing, just saying it isn't finished yet, hence the breakage ;)
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
Oh so nice ...

I just love it ...

Thank you so much ...

Some questions if you please,

The app drawer is Laggy ?

The market has a problem, others shown a workaround, but any real fix?

Are these widgets all what's there at the moment? (just a question as i miss sense widgets)

The Arabic works out of the box, GREAT. Any way to replace the font? i tried but it didn't recognize it.

My questions are based on b6r1 experience, I'm downloading b7r1 but i guess all of them but the first will still apply.

Many thanks,

Ahmad.
[HTC Desire S] mmmcfc:
Market 3.3.11 is working fine for me .. removed market updater so no problems so far.. except at times the app menu is sluggish. Excellent work mdeejay + superkid
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
Sense widgets will NEVER be available on a non-Sense ROM
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
To avoid launcher lags, go download Nova Launcher by Kevin from Teslacoil.

It is a heavily tweaked version of stock launcher.

I think you can find it in the Galaxy Nexus area.
[HTC Desire S] luky4:
Where can I find this background that the ISC is now Beta 7r1 please? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
or just search the market for ics launcher. there is a very good one there (it runs on ics and non-ics roms
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Newest version of ics launcher 4.0 keeps fc
[HTC Desire S] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Well done on real HW accel :) one question, if I swap out the framework folder, will there still be true/real hw accel?! Also, is it anything to do with the kernel? Thanks
[HTC Desire S] Michuta:
Gratz Guys!!! You are Genius!!!! only Camera left and it's perfect ROM!!!
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
really! not had a single problem
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Unless I'm just unlucky
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Have you updated it? read comments other users have left on market
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
Aha, i know this for sure ... i mean other widgets for this rom's ICS ... so i wont feel left alone. (the current set are almost useless)
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
yep - latest version
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Must have fixed it will try again cheers
[HTC Desire S] kazen44:
why exactly is the camera not working? is it a driver issue of some sorts?
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
The interface between the camera and android changed between Gingerbread and Honeycomb / ICS. We only have access to pre-compiled camera drivers so we can't update them for newer versions of android.

We need to either develop a wrapper for old drivers, or get newer ones compatible for ICS, kinda like the EGL hack, or the audio shim we briefly used in CM9.
[HTC Desire S] Jahai:
Is there any way to use a Browser properly?
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Just tried it again still no joy for me
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Anyone know a way of forcing apps to SD? As my Force2SD app won't let me?!? :(
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
strange! are you using this one?

https://market.android.com/details?...sMSwyLDEsIm1vYmkuU3luZGljYXRlQXBwcy5JQ1N2MiJd
[HTC Desire S] jacobras:
Nice update, m-deejay! Browser is unusable due to some kind of splitscreen-bug, but it's very smooth in switching between tabs! Also switching between recently used apps, launcher performance and performance in general have improved :)
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Yeah that's the one both times I've tried it same result.

I also read the comments left by other users and fc for them too shame because it looks more like the real thing compared to previous version
[HTC Desire S] -Sumsy-:
I cant even see my albums in gallery like the rest can shame at least it opens without saying its stop working lol

You could try to clear the Gallery's data using the settings menu, might help.
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Random question, but whenever I type anything, a keyboard/select input icon appears in the notifications, is there any way to get rid it showing up?

Awesome work!

Found a couple of bugs ,youtube showing no images but sound playing even when closed , gallery not able to crop photos and all words typed underlined in red as spelled wrong. Cracking rom keep up the good work.
[HTC Desire S] cjward23:
This is a new method of selecting input method, long holding in a text box no longer works, guess it will be like this unless someone, probably the CM team make an option for it.

Flashing gapps didn't fix the calendar for me.
[HTC Desire S] noodles2k:
have you tried adding them to the dictionary?
[HTC Desire S] jacobras:
It didn't for me either! I tried wiping the cache and then flashing the gapps, but I couldn't get it to work. I flashed the rom again and then the gapps, also didn't work.

Now I did a full wipe, flashed the beta and immediately flashed the gapps mentioned before ( http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/gapps-ics-20111128.zip ). Now Calendar sync works :)
[HTC Desire S] BigPickle80:
Hmm so flashing both in same instance, then rebooting, will go test that now
[HTC Desire S] jacobras:
Oh, and I'm not sure if this matters, but I added my account during setup and then waited until everything was fully synced. Then I noticed I didn't get the error anymore and I went to Calendar and my appointments were there :)

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

Not embedded, after clicking the link it works fine on YouTube. Thanks for taking the time to make the video, might help other users if they're hesitating to flash ICS.

Maps is working great here, although it has some EGL bugs. Haven't tested GPS.
[HTC Desire S] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Is hw acceleration kernel related? Has the kernel changed since beta6?
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
maxathon seems to work ok
[HTC Desire S] mmmcfc:
From what I understand , it is kernel related as Nexx mentioned previously. Correct me if I am wrong..
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Correct. The newer ICS compatible andren200 binaries required a new KGSL interface in the kernel. The release of the HTC flyer honeycomb source gave us the code needed which was ported to the general 7x30 AOSP kernel by Kali- of the CM team.

With the updated interface, plus the new blobs, we have full HW acceleration. There's still more work to be done, but myself and the other CM devs are hard at work on it :)

Also, m-deejay, you still haven't updated your source on github. We both know that kernel releases need the source to be available, and it'd be nice if you updated the saga layout as well.
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
same splitscreen-bug for me in browser and gmail and e-mail apps... i'm so sad because with this bug I can't use it properly...i receive so many mails... :( is there a way to sort it out? anyway except that the rom is AWESOME! thanx a lot m-deejay!!!

From DHD forum. No clue what to do with it. Would like to see a smooth gradient

Also how can i stop market updating without freezing market updater?

I know it's been answered but i've tried most the answers and they didn't work for me
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
Any solution?
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
If there was it would have been posted by now :) Just be patient.
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
Sorry...i thought it was something easy...i read everybody having it without problems so i was a little envious :-p
[HTC Desire S] e2zippo:
Just installed, and the rom is awesome! But I also have the issue with everything looks garbled in every browser and Gmail and so on.

I also have some corrupted pink stuff in my leftmost homescreen.

And market force closes, uninstalled the update though and it seems to work so far.

Cheers guys, amazing work!
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
I'm just going to to stick with BETA6.

[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
Read the posts. Can you see a solution? NO, therefore there isn't one!!!!
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
I read all the posts already ... just raising its priority .... (you add nothing)
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
When the guys doing the work for us have something to post they will post it, you do not raise priority by asking
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
What I'm doing is something called "FEEDBACK". All developers needs that for evolving their work. And i appreciate their work so far even if they stop updating any more, They made a hell of a good work.
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
feedback is "that is really good" or "did you know this didnt work" what you are doing is pestering.
[HTC Desire S] devwithzachary:
Chill guys it's Christmas, they will release when they can but tomorrow is a time to take a brake and spend time with loved ones. And who knows you might get another present under the tree
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
Doh ... i think you never filled a feedback form .... or never received many as a developer ... many end-users may complain about the same issue. Frequent complaint about single issue raises its priority for fixing in the next update (a rule of thumb). For a forum its not appropriate to re-post the issues over and over again. But hinting its real and exist and forming a problem to other end-users as well is positive for the developer.

Another area with dual-split screen and glitches :

I think it relates to the browser too ... correct me if I'm wrong.

Merry Christmas.
[HTC Desire S] SolInvictus:
Just putting this out there, but could the browser issue be related to the webkit egl hack superkid pushed in one of the earlier betas?

Reason I think that is because non-webkit browsers display fine, such as opera, but dolphin and browser (both webkit) have graphical issues. Also, I don't get those issues on email or Gmail, unlike someone did earlier. Perhaps there's could be a fluke, or the result of their flashing method?

Just a thought. Doesn't hamper me anyway, I use opera.

Also, merry Christmas everyone. :)
[HTC Desire S] hyperdude111:
I was just thinking that! I thought it might be that we no longer need the hack and it's breaking something now or that it was removed when we got full HW Acc but we actually still need it.

On your Gmail thing it's probably because your reading non-html emails - Read something full of pictures and you'll get it too.
[HTC Desire S] SolInvictus:
That could be it, regarding gmail that is. I don't ever bother with emails, so I only gave a couple of emails a quick glance to test. Probably should have been a little more thorough.

It certainly seems like a sensible assumption to make, doesn't it. Problem is, I don't think there's any 'hotfix' we could do to edit it, I think it would need rebuilding from the source without the webkit EGL hack. We'll probably just have to wait a couple of days to see.

As I said, no issue there for me, Opera works just fine. Additionally, being able to play games on my phone again is a huge plus! :D
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Its too bad opera doesn't do flash
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Merry Christmas to you all
[HTC Desire S] SolInvictus:
Flash seems to be working on my Opera?

I watched an embedded youtube video earlier on, so I assume it's working..
[HTC Desire S] matthewsucks:
The angle of the keyboard of the picture in the phone is all wrong. It's already stored in the SD card.
[HTC Desire S] matthewsucks:
Anyone care to explain what hardware acceleration is?
[HTC Desire S] anonymous_1997:
someone correct me if i am wrong but i think it is where it puts ALL graphical load on to the GPU
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Well kinda wrong...normally accleration is supported by gpu...

But in case of 3d acclerartion its shared between cpu and gpu to be able to share the heavy load...:)

In simple words 3d games and apps should work smooth :)
[HTC Desire S] rayulove69:
Okay im on b7r1. And the great thing is my mother tongue is rendering perfectly !:D it maybe doesnt mean much to you guys but it means a lot to me:D

[HTC Desire S] SolInvictus:
These are all already recognised bugs and the devs are working to fix them.

To fix market fc bug, you have to find market in your app manager, click uninstall update, then use titanium backup to either freeze or delete market updater. This will not fix it forever, its just a temp measure so you can install a few apps. You'll have to do it again after a few mins, or wait till the bug is properly fixed.

I feel sorry for devs. Only 10 percent of this entire thread is useful. I'd say another 30 percent is people *****ing, and the rest are bug reports from people who don't read the thread.
