What verion of Market is good to use? I have 3.1.3 and still getting Fc on all GApps including market.

Edit: I cannot even add Google in Accounts and Sync it is totally missing!?
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Dont know why but its not possible to restore my apps with MyBackup Pro. It says SD-Card is not writeable (input/output error)!! :( But I tried everything: mount/unmount SD, restart phone. File expert and Gallery is working!?! Maybe can it be that MyBackup Pro has some issues with 4.03. worked with 4.01
[HTC Desire S] lavier:
Seems like galaxy s got an ics rom too........ :( when will ours b complete
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Are you sure you picked the last version (6r1) from m-deejay?

I use 3.4.4, but cause even m-deejay itslef got the market issue with it, the best version would be 3.3.12 i think. But you should wipe all and flash the rom again, if you still can't get it to work flash the rom and immediately afterwards flash the gapps-ics-20111128.zip file.

Could be.
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
I know it brings complications whenever you do just partial wipe but I flashed latest beta over 4r1 and it removed my google account and even I cant set it up back. There is no possibility under Accounts... I should flash it after full wipe - I know - but I hate to do all those setting again... :) I guess I'll try to additionally flash gapps...

edit: ok, I give up...Calendar, you win!!! I'll fullwipe... :(
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Arrrrwww I hate My Backup Pro!!! Everytime I use it there are problems, FC, ....!!

Does anybody know whether Titanium works better with ICS??!?
[HTC Desire S] Airpil:
Dear developers, i can't understand WHY you are spend a time for fix spyware google apps.... IMHO in current situation OS adaptation and optimisation is more important

Not working:

oCamera

oTethering

oSmall EGL issues

omore

Even CM with perfect OS optimisation have not gapps by default
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Because Camera, ... are bigger problems and need time to fix it
[HTC Desire S] Airpil:
So if we will fix gapps we will fix Camera ?
[HTC Desire S] mdeejay:
you can help with camera fix? :D
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Hey cool a new dev for the ROM!!! :D
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
No problems at all with titanium :)
[HTC Desire S] Airpil:
Yes, i can help. I can help with feedback and bug search. But right now, as i see, gapps is more important for you, and you are trying to fix ****ty calendar.

What is happening ??? I cant believe that callendar is more important than camera.

No. There is a problem. with titanium Crack is doesn't work )))
[HTC Desire S] AirwolfUK:
To get the camera working requires some significant changes to the kernel which takes time. Also, due to the change in ICS that requires moving the camera driver from libcamera to libhardware (like GPS and other devices for Gingerbread), a new driver has to be written.
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
Delete Market update works fine for me. No problems at all...
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
cool down! I believe devs do their best. It's more complicated then you think. I believe they have no code to fit our HW.
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Oh **** titanium works!!! :eek:

I think they have a new user!!! ;)
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
Calendar isn't more important but if Camera is causing problems at the moment are you saying you want the guys to stop working on the other things. I for on would rather see things getting fixed bit by bit. Nobody has said they are not working on Camera, just that it is difficult as it is a driver problem.

If you are not happy with a ROM that is in development install the original ROM that came with your phone. If you want to play with something that everybody knows has problems then enjoy :-)

btw. calendar is far more important to me than camera!!!!
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
That's another story ;)

It's not more important, but easier to handle and sry, but it's superkids and m-deejays desission when they want to work on which part, remember they do it for free for us ;)
[HTC Desire S] Airpil:
Ok... = \ i am understand.

But i jast wants to notice that the thread name is Ice Cream Sandwich for Desire S not Google Apps for Desire S
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
What all will this rom replace?

will it continue to use my current radio?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Yes, you still can use your old radio.

With this rom your system and kernel will be switched like on almost every custom ;) :)

But you will need s-off for it and it's still beta state, means not all is working :)
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
yes :)

Is video playback slow for anyone else?
[HTC Desire S] blackpanther0582:
720 p playback is choppy, resolution 400*800 and less are working
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
It has already been explained that the camera is a much harder task which all the devs (not just on the desire s forum) are working on. It's not going to magically get fixed. So why not focus on other things that CAN be fixed easily instead of diverting all attention to the camera. It's pretty rubbish and useless using a ROM without gapps and although you may not want things like the calendar fixed, some people would like a calendar and others rely on it.

If you don't want gapps, remove it.
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Market?

So if I get the beta 6 version and uninstall updates the market should work?
[HTC Desire S] BigPickle80:
Can anyone give a brief update for me on whats better in B5R2, I'm still on B4R1 as it was very stable, is it a good update B5R2?
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Thanks dude

Another stupid question (with my S-ON status its obvious that I am new to rooting/modding :) )

Flashing clockwork mod will wipe my phone data cache?
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Yes!!

Blahbla (so ten characters) ;)
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
the latest is B6R1

Beta6R1:

- small cleanups

- fixed calendar sync

- torch from lockscreen (long press home)

- added car home

- etc

Beta5R2:

- Fixed root (su)

- Added Torch

- Added user dictionary

- Added CM9 Launcher (credits to nebkat)

- Improved app drawer performance

Beta5:

- Android 4.0.3 (IML74K)

- Fixed USB mass storage

- Music2

- Fixed graphics glitches

- Updated all gapps

- etc

I reckon it would be worth it to upgrade to B6R1

here's the link for B6R1. Not on the 1st post yet

[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Am I doing it wrong?!? I go to apps and click on 'uninstall updates' for market and it does... It works for about 5 minutes and then goes back to FCing... ? :/
[HTC Desire S] BigPickle80:
I still need to install GAPPS for calendar on B6 right?
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Yes and No

You use the right option maybe restart....
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Nope didn't work...

Does the Beta 6 come with the right GAPPS?

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Should I 'disable' market updater? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Flashing cwm not, but the s-off process will and within cwm you can wipe whatever you want (except recovery, bootloader and radio).

Take a look at the index thread there are tutorials for rooting and gain s-off.

Oh and btw, I would recommend you to use 4ext touch ;)

Swyped from my desire s running damn sweet ice cream
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Yes when you are able to do this!!
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Err...

I've 'disabled' 'market updater' and uninstalled the market, then it works...

BUT after 5 mins it goes back to FCing and in my apps it tells me again that I can uninstall updates?!?:(
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
touch based recovery sounds good, but being a newbie will stick to clock work mod as it is widely used

Swyped from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Try to rename the market updater apk to marketupdate.bak or so maybe the disabling didn't work.

[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Is it possible to install stock HTC camera apk in ICS? I really like the stock camera..

Swyped from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
due to non working drivers camera.apk would not work
[HTC Desire S] Loki14:
Firstly it won't install, secondly camera doesn't work and it doesn't regard on app

отправлено с моего Desire S
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
for example take an terminal editor

cd /system/app

mv MarketUpdater.apk MarketUpdater.bak
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
I mean once camera starts working on this ROM... Would it be possible if I extract the stock camera apk and instal it?

Swyped from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
You can if you're S-Off, by using Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (I'm using the latest) and set to mount system as RW in settings. If you're not S-Off, you can rename by rebooting in recovery and issuing ADB commands.

Sent from nowhere over the air...
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Ok, I renamed it to 'MarketUpdater.Bak and still it tells me 'unfortunately, market has stopped'...

Is it just me this is happening to? :/
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
Happens to me too,

everytime i uninstall the update i can download an app, but a few minutes later it is updatet again
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
HAHAHA, atleast we're not alone :)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
What market version does report the app manager (when going to Settings - Applications)? It could be that the service to update the market is loaded in memory and was running regardless of the fact you've just renamed it. You should do like this:

1. Rename the apk OR disable it OR you can freeze it with Titanium Backup (PRO paid version)

2. Reboot phone

3. Go to Settings - Applications and uninstall any market updates and clear any data/cache of market

4. Check Market version...it should be 3.3.12

5. Start Market...

It should work...if not, dunno what else to tell you except of flashing a different beta. I'm using Lord Clockan alpha 5 posted by proxxuser several pages ago and I have no problems with Market or other issues. Currently I cannot upgrade to 4.0.3 cause it seems there's an incompatibility with Call Master.
[HTC Desire S] cjward23:
Never going to happen. Sense camera relies on the sense framework.

I wonder how many times I have said this during my time on xda :rolleyes:
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
There is NO camera application that works now cause we don't have a suitable driver for camera. Until that will be fixed, there will be no camera regardless of the application used.

Later edit: I saw you've mentioned after that "when camera is fixed"...in this case cjward just gave you the answer. No proprietary HTC software can run on a AOSP ROM since HTC software is not open source and it cannot be modified to work with the drivers/framework from AOSP ROM. They can work only with the drivers/framework made by HTC so only on Sense ROMs unfortunately
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Oh I realised same with me!! I thought it works
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Okay I've done everything...

It was 3.4 (or something) and now it is 3.3.11?!?

and it then randomly went back to 3.4 :(
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Use root explorer go into system - apps - look for market updater apk and delete it then reboot your phone
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
That is the reason for which it doesn't work...ok, do you have PRO version of Titanium? If yes, go to app list, press on Market Updater and on the menu choose "freeze". That WILL work for sure. I've tested it in the past having the same problem with Market...I wanted version 2.3.6 and it was auto updating all the time. After I froze it, was ok
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
ok I 'froze' it and I uninstalled updates... But I was wondering, do I have to reboot my phone (by pressing reboot or actually turning off and on)?
[HTC Desire S] meinnameisthase:
Freezing with Titanium Backup Pro doesn't work here, market is still updated somehow.

Anyway, TB is definitely a must buy!
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Yeah same :( I froze it and it STILL updated!

Timeline:

1) I froze marketupdater

2)Uninstalled updates

3)Didn't do any reboot or anything?

Did I do something wrong? :(

---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:19 PM ----------

I was just wondering whether the DEVS are trying to fix this? As I don't know whether to wait around with ICS or go back to LBC?:confused:
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
Removed MarketUpdater.apk completely, rebooted and the Market updated by his self even so the MarketUpdater.apk is not there....
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Did you wipe market cache?

Edit: let's try this one:

Reboot to recovery, plugin to pc go to command line, type:

adb devices

adb shell

cd /system/app

rm MarketUpdater.apk

exit

After that wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot

Swyped from my desire s running damn sweet ice cream
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
You also should wipe market cache and reboot or try the solution above.

[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Ok. I'm curious... why are so many messing around with the market or gapps? Why not just use the included gapps and market? I have no issues with market, Gmail, talk...? What am i doing "wrong"?
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
mtothearkus, one question...do you realy realy wanna beta 6 and Android 4.0.3? You cand install alpha 5 from HERE, it's 4.0.1 but it's also ICS and it works great with any Market version. You will not have the latest launcher (but that you CAN install it afterwards from HERE even if you have some options on the included Launcher) and you won't have USB to PC working but you can use Dual Mount SD (to be honest I like it more than the USB to PC mounting from Android)

NOTE: If you install this build, you should go first into recovery, go to mount options and UN-MOUNT ALL partitions. The install script tries to format system without first un-mounting it so installation gives an error if you don't un-mount all partitions
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
I am using the included GAPPS and stuff from the ICS rom
[HTC Desire S] mtothearkus:
@rapier yes I wanna rely on it. Just want to find the problem. I am using the standard gapps+Market.

In addition I know that using newest software brings problems like these. I so not worry, when I need apps I install them trough browser...

Just read that even users of normal ics(Nexus s) have those problems with crashes...
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
So guys, I faced the market problem myself, why it now came up I don't know.

How I solved it:

Settings -> apps -> market

Stop market + delete market data + uninstall update

With es -> /system/app -> renamed it to MarketUpdater.bak

Reboot to recovery -> wipe cache + dalvik cache -> reboot -> done

Swyped from my desire s running damn sweet ice cream
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
I'll try this now :)

By ES you mean Es explorer?
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Dunno but let the rest of us in on your secret
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Yes, I just posted the same question a few mins ago. The Sync Calendar option is not there at all.
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
I will take a look on that
[HTC Desire S] jacobras:
Thanks! This might help: when I was using the first beta released in this topic, I flashed the gapps from here: http://forum.tegraowners.com/viewtopic.php?p=1273#p1273 and I had working Calendar sync :) Haven't tried it with newer betas though.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Wow. This is incredible. For me, once face unlock is working, this will be deemed stable. But seriously, this is amazing. I think the desire s is in the lead. But this every single word is wrong is annoying
[HTC Desire S] rayulove69:

this rom compatible with tiamat kernel or not?

update : tested, os loaded fine. but touch screen not working with tiamat kernel.
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
I dont think it is as our kernel have some touchscreen fixes
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
Maybe I have overwritten but is a a button backlight fix, or are you guys still working on that? Or am I just to stupid to find this in settings?

So far nice work. Thanks
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
no touchscreen dont work with tiamat kernel at least when i tried it
[HTC Desire S] Lilion12:
I confirm :

-Gallery croping bug

- agenda not syncing and not showed in accounts sync...

Otherwise, very fluid and smooth and i already love it!

Not working here. Says in Synchronization settings that there are some problems synchronizing, it shows an exclamation mark next to com.android.calendar.

Erm well I deleted Marketupdater earlier?.... What should I do :(
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Create a new file and rename it as MarketUpdater.bak :D Just kiddin, but it was funny to imagine you trying to rename a file that you've just deleted.

You can take the apk from the ZIP you've flashed and copy it back to system, then rename it. Or you can rename it on your PC and copy it afterwards
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
The same without the rename step ;)

Swyped from my desire s running damn sweet ice cream
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Ok this is getting stupid...

I did what you said (without the renaming bit) and it STILL converted back to 3.4.4 AND ES tells me there isn't a market or marketupdater even though Titanium tells me there is :(
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Given up :(

I give up!

I'll just delete the updates when ever I want an app... :l

Hopefully it'll be fixed soon? :)

[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
It's fun poking around this build while waiting for CM9 or Sense 4.

But the one i'm actually waiting for is MIUI ICS. :p They already have Nexus S build released.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
One nice improvement in latest beta (6) is that now the apps from market CAN be purchased. Before it was not possible and an error was received instead.

Everything works great, including calendar (the only thing that is NOT showing up even if it is selected to be synced is "Contact Birthdays"). For the Market I had to "freeze" Market Updater from Titanium Backup in order not to have it updated to 3.4.4...Market 3.3.11 works fine

The steps performed to have this in place were:

1. From 4EXT Recovery, selected Install ZIP from sdcard

2. Choose to "superwipe EXT4 partitions"

3. Choose "Install now"

I had everything working from start, restored my BT pairings and WiFi access points from Titanium Backup. Now I'm starting to restore apps.

Later edit: Very strange, I run into same issue as some described before...regarding Market... Somehow it is constantly updating to 3.4.4 even if Market Updater is frozen/disabled (even deleted). It seems there's another process that makes the check and push the update.
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
All the beta versions for me start off good but after I reboot several times that's. When things start going haywire very strange
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
Good news.

Time to port it. :p
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Lol... this is annoying.... :(

I was just thinking whether you have a few back up roms on your device?

If so they may have a market updater or something, so just cut and paste them to your PC?

BTW I am a complete novice at this sought of thing :)
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
I would like to see the button lights a little more sensitive (are the same changes required as sense roms?)

Other than that there is the market updater problem, but you can still install from web!

As for the camera, I would love to see it working. But its like my firewire port on my pc, I had to get it working because it was there but I never use it :-)

All in All excellent effort. I still have my heavily ICS themed MIUI to go back to if things start going wrong, but for now I think I will use this one.
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Yeah I have backups of roms on my SD card and PC lol takes quite a bit of memory but safer that way
[HTC Desire S] Tom Desire S:
Why not just try and copy the roms to PC from device and then delete them from device. Then do the whole market thing and see...

If it didn't work then put them back?

Or you could go into these back up roms and find the marketupdater and rename to .bak?
[HTC Desire S] chubby65:
Apart from last 2 betas not really had problems with the market for me beta 4r1 has been the best for stability
