I just checked my source and the code changes aren't present on my side. I'm not sure why since I'm syncing directly from the EOS repo. Now I'm wondering what else isn't properly syncing on my side. I'm going to pull those changes and build again. Thanks!
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
You might need to do repo rebase

your honeycomb tiamat rom was absolute awesome, but this ics release is just mindblowing! .. everything worked perfectly from the first moment on ... feels like i just bought a new device :>

donation incoming !!! :)
[Xoom Android Development] HairyMerkin:
Are there any kernels available that work with this? On my Nexus One there are a variety of different kernels often with better performance.

New Google search update today but not compatible with ics. WTH Google? Lol
[Xoom Android Development] wanderfowl:
Love the newest nightly, but don't care for the new boot animation. Does anybody have a copy of the old "Android" boot animation from Nightly 23 (which was what I updated from).

That aside, thanks for all the hard work!

Ready for flaming, I thought face lock was working on 34 but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions?
[Xoom Android Development] jonman364:
Works with wifi-tether 3.1-beta6 on my Flipside with encryption off.

Just delete /system/media/bootanimaition.zip and it will use the default I believe.
[Xoom Android Development] wanderfowl:
Thanks much for the quick reply, that did the trick. I didn't realize that that was the default animation :)
[Xoom Android Development] :
Lol dont know that...i change by myself to a release with picasa sync....dont worry
[Xoom Android Development] double1:
Isn't ics supposed to have a built in file manager? Any word on getting this? :D
[Xoom Android Development] idmo:
Loving the latest nightly, face unlock is so freaking fast. Thank you guys for the amazing work!
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
It's probably because the update finally brings Google Search in Froyo and Gingerbread up to the level that was released with ICS.

Face Lock

Fatceunlock allows me to record the face pattern just once

The second time it stays recording for ever.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
That's what happens when you leave a code junky alone in a room with a copy of After Effects.... :P

Just delete bootanimation.zip from /system/media and the stock android boot animation will show back up.

Make sure you have also installed the latest EOS G-Apps package (v9).

Hey, nobody can fault you for advertising a bit in the boot-up. I just loved the quiet of the stock animation, especially after Honeycomb's... well, we all remember that. :)

Face unlock works in landscape for me. Only thing is face lock doesn't work on initial boot.

Between this and Warm 2.3 for my long forsaken EVO I'm in rom heaven!!

Sent from my Xoom and Evo concurrently with one hand tied behind my back.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
And just think.... we have not really started the code optimization process. This is still an engineering build as far as we are concerned. We are still working on the overall framework of the rom itself. This is not a rom that is designed to be a crackflasher style rom. The intent of this project is to develop and maintain a rom that excels in both performance and stability. There are certain tricks that could be implemented even now such as overclocking the GPU in an attempt to artificially create the appearance of higher performance, however as part of our development plan we are pushing towards a final release that offers performance at a level that is high enough that overclocking is not necessary unless you choose to implement that on your device. There is no reason that the xoom should have to be overclocked at all in order to be a fully functional yet high performance tablet.

Nuisance does that mean yous can easily cook up a oc gpu kernel? If so May i ask why u havnt already? Not meant to be in a rude way purely educational of course lol

No Gameloft HD games

I loaded build 34a last night and in general it worked superbly. I played about with my Xoom for 3-4 hours but I did encounter one problem.

None of my Gameloft HD games worked. I tried Modern Combat 3 (kept crashing and restarting "checking license"), Asphalt 6 (similar) and GTA 3 (FC). I tried reinstalling from backup, reinstalling and starting from scratch from the Market and neither worked. When I went back to my previous ROM (Tiamat 2.3) all worked well and when I tried restoring and reinstalling, both worked fine. I'd guess that this is a graphics issue as none of the three games got to the point of showing any HD graphics and in the case of MC3 (the only one of the three that I have played much and am therefore familiar with) it was exactly before the point at which the Gameloft HD splash screen would normally appear where the game appeared to crash.

Other than that it was great (thank you Team Eos). I was half way through MC3 so despite the fact that ICS was much smoother than HC, I'm back on HC for the time being.
[Xoom Android Development] f1ux:
known issue, please search before posting.

http://xdaforums.com/search.php?searchid=5841100
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
Can we yes. Will we, we are not sure right now. Honestly, there really is no advantage to overclocking the GPU. Additionally the kernel development work to date on this rom has been very minimal as a function of the whole. However we are going to start tearing into the kernel here shortly to start working on performance enhancements.
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
I would have to say, though Team Eos could answer better, that since they are currently seeking a balance between performance and stability they felt that a GPU OC would tilt too far towards performance at the cost of stability for most users. They also have stressed several times that this is practically a Proof of Concept rom, and they are deliberately avoiding many typical Dev tricks for performance boosting at this time.

In addition the fewer different kernel options that are available, the easier a ROM in heavy development is to field test and troubleshoot. Choice is great, but choice also brings confusion, effort duplication and non-standard situations when you are trying to debug software.

Perhaps down the line they will release GPU OC versions for ICS just as Team Tiamat always offered both GPU OC and Non GPU OC kernels for Honeycomb.

EDIT: Nusince beat me to it...
[Xoom Android Development] f1ux:
@Nusince

FYI, in the cm9 thread, the MIPS issue after sleep has been fixed. It was a kernel issue
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
As far as I know it's also only a cosmetic issue, it doesn't effect the performance of the device.
[Xoom Android Development] lotus49:
Oops, sorry. I did search but clearly not very effectively. I retried with different terms and saw that 3D games are currently not working. I can wait.
[Xoom Android Development] Sk8er Boi:
no release today ? already 30 mins past the daily release time
[Xoom Android Development] torespen:
Man oh man... (or boi oh boi if you like) *sigh*

Why nag?.. it will arrive when it arrives..

The reason it's nagging and annoying is that Your not the only one asking for eta's..

Can people please stop asking and instead enjoy the superb ROM nr 34 we already have?

I'm pretty sure EOS will announce it when the time comes :)
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
You see? THIS is why we can't have nice things...
[Xoom Android Development] Sk8er Boi:
changelog is already up , i think this is the whole idea for teameos to setup a specific time with a specific time zone to keep up for it
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
You see? THIS is why we can't even have crappy things!
[Xoom Android Development] dj_ghosie:
Please stop asking dumb questions such as ETA! Consider yourself having the privilege to wait! Some devices don't even have this luxury!
[Xoom Android Development] Arasthel:
The changes from today's changelog won't even be noticeable by any of you! They've just changed a little the way they build their ROMs, there are no performance, graphic, or stability tweaks on the upcoming nightly...

Please wait patiently, developers don't implement new features by just typing randomly on their keyboards, you guys should really check your versionitis.

camera issue

Loving and appreciating all the work. I have a problem with camera perhaps someone can help with. Works fine in all modes until I try to use the front-facing camera i.e. the one that seems to be working for those of you who've used face-unlock. FC every time I try it, then need to clear data in order for camera to work again. Help appreciated. T

So if I understand this right, basically right now its all about getting everything to function. Once that is done, you can put more into "code optimization" i.e. better performance?

Thats amazing news if so, because even just now its a huge improvement over HC. Anything more is quite a bonus for all of us.
[Xoom Android Development] Sistema1927:
Yes, I searched first, but did not find anything.

Loving this ROM, only seeing one little glitch that has been occurring since sometime around nightly 29. After rebooting I get a message "Unfortunately, android.process.media has stopped". This happens once or twice after reboot, but doesn't appear to hinder functionality in any way.
[Xoom Android Development] kev0153:
Try going to apps and clearing data for the download app. Seems to have fixed my problem, not sure why.
[Xoom Android Development] scottgti:
I tried that and I still get pop-up after a reboot.
[Xoom Android Development] Sistema1927:
Same here. Has this already been reported to the team with a log?
[Xoom Android Development] SwampNutz:
Still rocking N34. Faceunlock is cool but damn it is bypassed easily. I took a pic of myself with my phone and held it up to my Xoom and it logged me right in. Also, for whatever reason, the setup tool opened and appeared to be working in landscape. I hit the back button by accident and when I loaded it up again, I had to use portrait. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

ThanksagainTeamEosyourockwoooo!
[Xoom Android Development] LPHS:
mate i found a way of landscape orientation while set up..

just make sure that when you enter the settings you are in potrait..

then do the set up and when it wants to scan your face..it will do it in landscape

Btw i just wanted to ask...

why is it that some apps work in EOS and don't work in CM9 some apps work in CM9 and not work in EOS...apps in the leaked chinese build has a high proportion of apps and games running...I have nothing against EOS and absolutely love it...

but just wanted to ask this question
[Xoom Android Development] davidmcw:
Just installed beta 10. Works like a charm! Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
The build process STARTS at 3:00am pacific unless we push it back for additional commits. Our build slaves (yes we already have more then 1) is not just building for 1 specific device. There are 4 devices being built every night with more to come. There is no specific order in which a particular device is built and on which slave it is built on. Each device build can take between 25-50 minutes depending on a number of factors. So what does that mean... it means that a given build might show up online anywhere between 3:30am Pacific and theoretically as late as 5:00 am pacific. And if we choose to push a build for whatever reason it might be even later then that, or potentially not at all on a given night.

This is software development. Things happen when they happen and are released when they are ready, not because a clock reaches a specific time or a calendar reaches a specific date.

I just want to thank you guys for being active on the forums. I know it can be frustrating going through all the nonsense that will pop up in the thread, but its really nice that you guys take the time to respond, and give us an idea on where things are at.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
Basically that about sums it up :D
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
+1

We are so fortunate to have Team EOS/Tiamat, Team Rogue and the other great developers and themers working on the Xoom. It's especially gratifying to know that they do take an interest in the users' experience and invite our feedback. We need to make sure that our comments are actually useful so we don't waste their time. Also we need to use their bug reporting and feature requesting sites, instead of cluttering up these pages.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
And your enthusiasm is very much appreciated, so please don't feel put off by my response. The honest truth is that Nightlies, especially with the size and complexity of Ice Cream Sandwich are no small undertaking when dealing with multiple devices. We would honestly not bother with the hassle of these nightlies if the response from the community had not been what we have seen. We are averaging over 2,000 installs a day at this point in time. The response from the community has been nothing short of astonishing to be honest.
[Xoom Android Development] jiwengang:
Because you guys are the best.
[Xoom Android Development] M Diddy:
Just an FYI, I'm seeing this as well with Build 34 and the stock kernel, nothing touched. The second core isn't scaling with the first.

The Rouge guys fixed this issue in their last nightly of CM9. Is this something you guys are looking into?
[Xoom Android Development] f1ux:
with build 35 my GPS has stopped working. In maps it just says searching for GPS in the notifications.

I did a complete wipe and installed gapps v9.

Is there a way I can check the GPS driver loaded properly?

I really hat to be picky especially after all the work that has been done, but why is this the only ics rom where slingplayer does not work? it just seems odd to me.
[Xoom Android Development] RMerlin:
Isn't Tegra 2 bandwith-starved anyway? An OC GPU would still be bottlenecked by the poor memory bus nVidia implemented in Tegra 2.
[Xoom Android Development] Rob116:
Hey everyone, I spruced up the EOS bootanimation included with the ROM a bit. One is just smaller, one has a bit of a glass effect on the spinner. I'll keep messing around with it, but thought I'd throw it up for now in case anyone's interested. I'm no photoshop expert, still learning, but hope you like them.

For some reason something got messed up. I came from a Tiamat rom and now I am stuck in the "M" boot loop. I cant get into CWM. Any help on reflashing via fastboot?

Thanks
[Xoom Android Development] ssmithri:
This started for me about a week ago... I searched and couldn't find anything either... so I thought I was alone.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
That is absolutely correct. For as awesome as the Tegra family is, shortsighted decisions on the part of Nvidia will always prevent the utilization of the processor to its maximum potential.

Oh and just for fun, Nvidia forgot to correct that little memory bus issue in the Tegra 3.

Thanks for the info.

What does a "nightly" mean?

I don't mind flashing everyday as long as it keeps improving, if you know what I mean.

As far as fixing your own bugs, what kind of bugs do you mean?

I guess what I mean is what is the difference in this ROM (a nightly) and the other ROM (XOOM ZONE) that is posted?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1399827
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
A nightly basically is the most current build for a rom. They are testing and development builds and are not considered stable release versions.

Every day changes are made to the code that is compiled into this or any rom. At the end of each day all of these changes are aggregated by the version control software and pushed to an automated build system that in turn compiles a new version of the rom utilizing all of the latest changes to the code that were pushed through out the day.

It is entirely possible that while the build compiled last night is very stable changes pushed tonight may prove to be unstable or introduce other unforeseen issues. That is the nature of nightlies and the reason that they are considered development builds and not stable releases.

Historically we have operated under a closed nightly system. However given the excitement generated over the release of ICS and the overall stability that the current builds were exhibiting the decision was made to make our nightlies available to everyone who wanted ICS goodness but did not want to wait for a full stable release.

The reality is that there are no current xoom ICS roms by any developer that can be considered fully stable release roms. The reality is that we are still missing components from Google and Motorola necessary for full and complete functionality of ICS on the Xoom.
[Xoom Android Development] hchxoom:
Many thanks nusince, solarnz, and team EOS... really appreciate all of your hard work and openinig these nightlies... and the great communication!
[Xoom Android Development] rebill:
I notice that you can long press on apps in your recent apps list. You can view info or remove app from recent list. You can also just swipe the app out of the list.
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
That answers my question perfectly. :) Thanks!

Now... do I or don't I want to taste the ICS goodness? That is the question. lol

I have made a nandroid so if I flash this and start using it, I could always flash back to a stable release or even my current release (Tiamat 2.3 ROM wish Bazar6 Red Theme) if I choose, correct?

Also, would I need to do a full wipe before flashing this over Tiamat 2.3? or when updating the nightlies?

Hey anyone get the Calendar to sync up? I get No Calendars showing under Gen Pref
[Xoom Android Development] joshndroid:
hey is it possible to get the md5 sums put in the same directory where we find the new nightly? or can you post them at all. I just would like to ensure what we are getting is what you are uploading and this will help (in my view) minimize errors that could be avoided
[Xoom Android Development] jgardner:
Worked like a charm thanks!!!
[Xoom Android Development] albundy2010:
Try the newer gapps package. Calendar works. Maps is removed and you can install it from the market. It can be found on the cm9 alpha thread on the nexus s forum.
[Xoom Android Development] hchxoom:
Go for it, ghoticov... you"ll be glad you did.

Yes to flashing back via nandroid... I did the same from an earlier version with no problems. Yes also with wipe... some have said it worked for them without, others have had issues. If you make a tibu of your apps, you can reinstall them easily after wipe.
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
Correct. You can restore a previous backup at any time to revert back from ICS.

If you are coming from any rom that is not a stock firmware (so this means any Tiamat rom) you will need to wipe.

Generally speaking there should be no need to wipe when flashing one EOS nightly over another. However if you find that you are experiencing any strange or otherwise inexplicable behavior from an updated nightly you can either wipe and see if the problems persist or revert back to a prior nightly. If the requirement for wiping changes we will certainly communicate that with you guys.
[Xoom Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Has anyone been able to get facebook to sync?

I was unable to get either of the EOS nightly builds to sync
[Xoom Android Development] Nusince:
As far as I know that's actually a facebook problem. I have heard around the grapevine that ICS and facebook in general have some issues to work out before they can press the like button.

But that's all hearsay since I honestly don't really use facebook, and I don't have it on any of my Android devices.

Everytime I install the rom, cause i tried a few times before getting it right, during thr flash in CWM I get a "random offset" then a hex value. I think its hex at least. Its always a different value. Is that supposed to happen, or is that an install error?
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
What do you mean by "sync"? Does the Facebook app work at all or are you say I g you just can't sync your contacts?
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
As I understand it Google decided they were unhappy with the way Facebook was syncing so they have blocked their apps. They simply will not sync on Android anymore regardless of device or build.

Google and Facebook are negotiating so expect money to be exchanged, bygones to be bygones and Facebook to sync sometime in the future...but not yet.

The android app works fine but when you go into "Accounts & Sync" trying to add the facebook account does nothing.
