Rom runs good for an alpha

- The Homebutton ( i know this is known :P ) but it seems like its reacting like a back buttons sometimes.

- I often get a red border when tapping next in a menu or install in the market.

- SDcard works but no mass storage on pc

Edit 2: the : and ; are not located at the fn button but at the shift button.

So far i already like this better then de Desire S port :p

Edit: I have no messaging app, anybody else who hasn't?

Edit 3: I tried buttonremapper to try and remap the home button but no luck :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] enserio:
Your home button was acting like a back button? Mine was just being unresponsive until about the third press. Interesting.

aside from that, did you notice if your handset got warm while running this rom? Mine did, and I forgot to mention it in my post.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] imanoob:
Hey the key layout and keychar file have move_home wrong
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aegentirony:
I ran this rom for about 45 mins and had two lockups where I had to battery pull, first was upon signing into google and it goes to the wifi screen...locked up...rebooted signed in fine and played around for a bit...yea no messaging app and then I noticed it syncd emails and upon c hecking gmail from the notification bar it locked up in gmail..I then restored to cm7...data worked though tmobile usa
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
No not having problems with it being to warm. Running it now since my post and still no problems except the usuals.

And about the homebutton, it also looks app related. For example in whatsapp it just does nothing, but in the browser it reacts as a back button.

Seems like someone in the desire s port thread fixed the home button. But i found something new with the hw kayboard. Capital d doesn't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
What particular files fix the software keyboard, allow hardware keyboard to rotate it and manage the keyboard lights??? Thanks:)

Headphones not working properly: (
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crowstar:
the IDCs I think. But I'm not having these issues, try out some of the kernels by odiemanSAM. See which one works best
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bogdan5844:
That's to be expected. It's an alpha after all ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
I know but in Odies last kernel they worked perfectly.

Let me be more precise.

When i plug the headphones in they wil connect and work. Then i tried to skip a song and they dont work anymore and the phone speaker takes over.

Could you please write a short "how-to: compile ics for htc vision"?

I would like to build it on my machine but I don't know how...

Thank you!

I dont have much knowledge about building a ROM or anything but i found a link for the Huawei Honor ICS ROM on Engadget. Seems to have similar hardware.

Thank You for all the work!

GPS seems to be working... or at least I can see sat's in GPS Status. Maps might be another issue or it may be that I'm just not getting a lock :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
What is the reason for the edge of the screen regularly flashing with a red border? Did I miss something?

Also noticed that my home button is acting weirdly... Hm, saw others had the same issue. It seems like it takes 2-3 presses to get home to work properly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AntSmoove:
I tried this build to compare it to the port and everything seems to be great its up to par or even a little ahead of the port considering the market and phone is working and doesnt need a fix. Only problem I've noticed so far is the red border on the outside.. it was annoying at first however it slowed down the more I used the rom but its still there

the home button acting funny is a problem caused by Odie's kernal, just flash this file from the port forum and it should work fine (from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1374927&highlight=fix&page=123)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gpclaker:
will you make the development to continue?

So what is the difference between Flinny's build and your build?

yeah, I think they are the same file? lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
They are indeed.... I just threw the link onto IRC :)

I'll go back to my cave and see if I can't "fix" something else...

Most of the issues reported I had already spotted but I had been running that build all day yesterday and it seems fairly stable and can actually do the important things I need on a day to day basis. In fact I'm still running it and don't want to go back to GB so it can't be that bad :>

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spooke:
Anyone changed from the Desire S port to this?

Is this any better?

Cheers, keep up the work guys :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
Are you running the build 'as-is' or overclocked? Also, how is battery life?

Sent from my Nexus X
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
I'm running it basically as is but I've installed a couple of extra app's that I needed. Battery life I can't really comment on as most of the time it's been plugged in with logcat running in the background so it's been on constant charge.

As for the red flashing people are seeing that is to be expected it's an -eng build it's working as intended :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
Cheers Flinny. I patiently await the fruits of yours and the teams labour

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
I am on this rom now. It is definitely faster and smoother than the port. Negatives are the red flashes and gallery not working yet. Keyboard lights up unlike the port. I would much rather use this aosp build than port but unfortunately no gallery so I will try it later.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spooke:
Thanks for your reply, sounds good.

I think I'll wait until market works and some more stuff.

:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
I installed quickpic and it worked fine as gallery on this rom :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
Market does work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spooke:
Oh then theres no reason for me to stay on this port then :)

Cheers, :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
I installed it and it works great. It will keep me on this build. I still like the ICS gallery which loads pics up very quickly. One of my favorite things so far about ICS.

Edit: Quickpic is pretty quick, thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
Question...my wi fi is on but the wi fi icon is grey(not blue). Wi fi says connected.

Is it my phone or a known issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Is the music player working for anyone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
Thats why its called quickpic :p

Btw are more people having isseus with games on this rom would like to flash it again. But i like to play games on my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
Yes
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Thank you.

---------- Post added at 12:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

Are you saying games work if the Rom is flashed again? Are all of your games working? :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
No i read someone saying he couldnt even play angry birds on this rom. So i am back at cm7. Was hoping if more people had this problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
Its true. I just tried to play angry birds and it did not work. Sucks cause this rom is so fast and smooth. I am going to wait it out since I like it so much. I play games on my cm7 loaded HPtouchpad anyways.;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
Yes, I had this installed for a day, but reverted today to the port. I like my games ( which aren't GPU intensive ) and the Music 4 app so I'd rather deal with the graphical glitches.

That said, this ROM is ridiculously smooth and does everything you want it to do efficiently. Only missing part is 3D. Hell, even Gtalk works, which is kind of a big deal for me.

Frankly, I'm okay with not having a camera. I'm actually thinking of getting a better SDCard so I can restore my CM7 install in under 2 minutes as opposed to the 7+ minutes it's taking on my Class 4 8GB. I like ICS and really don't want to go back to GB :(. Everything's just nicer on ICS, even if it is a little choppy on the port. Also, I love the Gmail app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
This ROM is coming along nicely ! One question though, how did you make the market just work and how did you fix the keyboard lights? Thanks:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
Gentlemen, so far this ROM me want to make sweet love to a sock! Buttery smooth (max 1GHZ OC on ROMToolbox)

This is my DD for now! I can live without music.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] waz000000:
we really need to combine it all together, there are bits and peices working on all roms but none of them as yet have the full works, great work though!

part of the yam yam brigade
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lugiber:
Nevermind.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
From about 70% charge and heavy use. Random reboots here and there. Would this be down to the kernel? OC'd Min - 22x, Max - 988.

*Edit* did you know about the 'home' button being a little queer and 'select input method' appearing in the notification area when using sw/hw keyboard? Also the buttons dont light up?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
Can OdiemanSAM's kernel with Home button fix okay to use with AlphaIII?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crowstar:
use the latest sam kernel!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
Sorry sir. I am on Odiekernel 3.2 and home was playing up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aegentirony:
Holding home down brings up the multitasking list...!!!! im on the Andromadus alpha 3 but cant post in the thread! TRM gets mad

This work for anyone else on this rom or the andromadus rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jbs92:
Yeah this works on alpha3, swiping away kills the task entirely.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crowstar:
I heard it doesn't, I haven't tested fully, but apparently it just removes it from the multitasking menu -.-
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jbs92:
Oh, perhaps I read that is just what it's supposed to do rather than it was working. Are you running a build now? Just check logcat to see what happens?

I would but I've just reverted back to GB/don't have a USB cable on me.

Edit: Found it, this is what I read:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369254

But perhaps still worth checking how it works on our build.

(On second thoughts it does look a bit out-dated/potentially still not conclusive evidence, but anyway..)

Please merge this patch in your repo.

i love ICS!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gwanatu:
I'm liking the speed upgrade and the inclusion of working GTalk in this ROM. The red box around the screen is annoying for sure, but it's a minor gripe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iucidium:
This rom is lovely. Didnt use Odie's kernel, just whacked the ROM on 'as is'

Been a light/moderate day. Im almost shaking with excitement for battery life/optimisation/hardware acceleration!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tronmech:
Funny, but I have market working. Unfortunately I'm also on the one where calendar might not. (I. Think)

Some other comments:

1) on my g2, the boot anim flashes and disappears. Made me think it was hung. Gave it more time after trying out the Desire S port, and it did come up.

2) ICS just looks cooler. Better fonts, a *spell checker* in the text control for the forums, and other neat surprises.

3) got a shock when gps actually worked (in gps toolbox anyway) since the OP said it didn't.

4) Not sure about the paged app list or the sideswipe to get to widgets. More because they're different than anything else.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
General consensus is that swiping those tasks to the side doesn't kill them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] starkruzr:
We're never really going to have a fully functional build of ICS on this device, are we? Vendors hardware is basically a black box with no specs to write drivers to, so if the vendor doesn't release a new kernel that supports ICS fully... you're basically screwed, right?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Yeah. We should all stop trying.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
Isnt shaky working on a kernel that will also work with our device?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Yeah, I was being sarcastic. There are a few people working on it. Very thankful for all of them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
Ah oke :p you almost gave me a heartattack haha :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jspina:
Yeah dont worry. We have the Cyanogenmod team who is constantly working on it for all capable devices and we also have the developers making this rom as well as the desire s rom that is being ported! You gotta love the line up of people we have for this phone!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gwanatu:
One of the ICS rom threads around here has proof that it DOES kill the task. Proof was provided via Logcat and showed that the process with that name/PID was dead after swiping it out of the task manager. Good news for all, really.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dirtybudha:
Test run

I ran it for a bit yesterday, very smooth. Had very little issues, only camera and GPS. Checked some apps as well.

I got market to work, but I tricked it some how. I had tried to download titanium, and it would just say "downloading" with no progress. Then I went on through the browser and downloaded it from a share site and tried to use market to update it. When it said I had to uninstall to update, I did and it started working like a champ. downloaded a few apps after that.

- Root explorer doesn't work, or at least the one I had backed up. Astro does work.

- I didn't try angry birds, but I did get a different game to come up, Spectrum Puzzles. So it may just be that angry birds isn't updated for 4.0.

- Speaker worked fine, as did the calling function.

- I tried different camera programs, obviously none worked.

Overall, it works very well with the lack of camera, GPS, etc. I'm amazed at the progress. I'm sure once the Nexus comes out this will become the real deal lightening fast!

Great work y'all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Detafewa:

This is hilarious to be on topic though this was a great introduction to ics being on the g2 when it first was released.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ohhdavid:
This Alpha III posted here is the same ROM as the currently updated Andromedus ROM. I am guessing perhaps that one of the devs thought to start a new post for some reason but abandoned it and stuck with the original one. Both posts were updated with Alpha III around the same time, this one just came out first.

So.. while this thread is dead the ROM is not. See: Andromedus
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
Actually..They're quite different.. This was just based off Andromadus.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crowstar:
basically others have made this rom (from aosp not Cyanogen) but with more time, resources, skill and quality. Why use my rom when the EXACT same project exists but moar quality!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crzchn:
When I start from scratch I really like to start from scratch, including wiping the Internal SD card.

I would suppose this would happen during a factory reset but to my surprise it leaves all that intact.

I tried to do using CWM and ACS but it is not straight forward and I actually choose format SDCARD and it wiped my EXTERNAL card, which sucks but is not really that big of a problem.

And in ACS it said it could not mount my sd card. Hmmm.

I just ODIN'd the stock EG30 ROM and my data is still there! Jeez they make it hard to get rid of.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crzchn:
OK. DUH. Well, kind of DUH. You would think a FACTORY RESET would wipe this info, but you have to go to Settings > Storage > Format USB Storage.

That is pretty poor naming convention. It is not connected to USB but they call it USB storage? Weird. Anyway, the answer is here for those who want it.

I installed SFM 3.0 [as per instructions] and have not been able to get root access for Titanium back-up, which means I lost root access.

How do I re-gain it without going into recovery, wiping, and installing another rom?

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeatsByMessi:
this also happened to me, its a common problem with this rom.

go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1317368

scroll down to where it says superuser installation and click on the link and download the file.

then obviously place file on sd card and boot into recovery and install it (i dont think you need to do a factory reset or wipe cache or anything like that)

then just make sure you have the latest superuser from the market and then everything should be fine

U haven't lost root access u just don't have the super user app download it from the market it'll work fine

Hi ,

The other day I decided to fxz'ed my phone back to stock. Somewhere during the flash i seemed to have gotten a flash failure, but my phone rebooted and seemed to be fine, stock. I thought nothing of it.

I was out and about today without my car charger and my phone died. When I got home I plugged my phone into my wall charger and instead of the normal battery on my screen the phone booted to this :

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Flash Failure)

0A.61

Battery Low

Cannot Program

Connect USB

Data Cable

I cant seem to get to any other mode.

Im hoping i didnt brick my phone. Any Help Would be greatly appreciated .

Do this and will reflash the system http://rootzwiki.com/index.php?/top...nd-43V3R-Root-For-The-Bionic-V2.1#entry127684
[Motorola Droid Bionic] johnlgalt:
Power the phone off. The try to boot into the bootloader (press and hold Vol up / vol Down, then press and hold power until it comes on).

Select Normal boot - if it boots normally this may be something that you have to live with. Every time you turn the phone off and power it back on, you'll need to do this. If you remember to do it then you can bypass directly to the bootloader menu and select boot normally, and not have to see that stupid flash failure message.

My phone does this too. So does cellzealot's. We both tried to do different things in testing and both ended up with the same symptom.

I tried to FXZ back to pure stock to see if I could do it. I was already on 5.7.893, so that in effect may have b0rked the flash, and it sounds like you might have done the same thing.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] jeffreydavis:
Have also been running into the problem, but I've jerryrigged it to be able to charge the battery. Now I'm at the point where I can't find any method to fix my soft bricked bionic (ran into the problem rolling back to 5.5.893 from 5.7.893). Now I'm stuck on the AP Fastboot menu and can't get past loading the system.img whether that using the RSD Lite methor or the moto-fastboot method. One-click methods haven't worked either and I keep trying anything I can. Please help, I'm desperate right meow.

Is your battery charged? Are you trying to get on .902?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dragon droid:
Go to link below. There find the fX files and download the one that will do a full phone format including webtop and bootloader. (Its marked complete)Then make sure all drivers are installed in windows and use RSD lite to flash. It will take over half an hour to flash. Had same problem and it fixed it. The key is the file you use to flash the phone. Needs to be the full file. Rom/Webtop/Bootloader

Here is the link. And be sure you download the complete one and not minimal. Do not uncompress the archive either. Use rsd lite and the file in its entirety. Let rsd do any uncompressing needed

http://briefmobile.com/droid-bionic-receives-fastboot-recovery-files
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eye__dea:
Pretty sure you don't have to go through all of this...

But whatever works, I guess.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cellzealot:
Those are old files. You don't want to use those files anymore and depending on the current state of your phone they won't work anyway.

You need to use RSD Lite 5.5 and the new full .902 XML.zip and it will restore your phone.

The latest driver version is also now 5.5 but the 5.4 drivers should work fine for Bionic.

All of the old tools and methods are no longer current and using the new file either complete with RSD Lite or flashing specific partition images with fastboot, if you know what needs to be fixed, is the way to restore your phone.

All of these methods will require a sufficiently charged battery to succeed or a factory flash cable that bypasses the battery altogether, as well as a PC with at least 4gb of RAM in order to manage the large image files. The time is dependent on you PC specs.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] delisawzrv:
I have the same problem too
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eye__dea:
