[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
I agreed to that but will make separate CWM pack with AOSP keyboard for those who needs it ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DaXmax:
Actually, the stock ICS Keyboard is better than Swype, cuz its multitouch... :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Nope it was me who made the decision to clear it up (for the 3rd time today), it was Perka's decision to start a war. Sad but true :( What a pity... Now it needs clearing again :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Really, I didn't know that as I always use Swype. thanks for pointing that out ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dlockhart:
I followed step 6- Factory wipe AGAIN to enable calendar sync.. but I still can't seem to get any of my calendar information.. there are only sync options for contacts and gmail...

am I missing a step?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
I'm aware of it, please read the second post. It will be fixed in RC3 (released in a few hours or so) ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
:) good news comes in bunches apparently :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dragonkhan9:
!it's possible to flash this rom to come build 9 teamhacksung via recovery
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Yes it is, just wipe data/factory reset, flash the two zip's and wipe data/factory reset again

BTW testing RC3 (uploading within the hour or so...) ;)

Edit: wipe is not really needed, just flash the two zips to update and keep your settings,... ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
ICS S.U.R.F.A.C.E. v1.0 RC3 is ready for Download @ 1st post

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
Thank you! flashing rightaway!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] k1lonbo:
Hello, great rom... I don't use Swipe how can i change to a normal keyboard like android or something like that?!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Flash this latest ICS AOSP Keyboard in CWM recovery (it also contains LatinIme Dictionary Pack from latest Gapps 19/12/2011) ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jedi5diah:
can't wait for your polished work on ICS!!!! WOOT! Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Did you test the just released RC3 for that all the integrated functions/apps work? (to make it even better) :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jedi5diah:
i'm abit noob here so i'm still waiting for yer installation guide lol...

can i simply flash this from teamhack build 10? i'm on it right now.

thanks!:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Sure, flash ahead (wipe data/factory reset before and after if you want a clean install) ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yogeesharma:
i just filled name in two fields in new APN..

Name and APN that's it..

What i can suggest you is

pl try to select network manually once, your APN should work then if your sim get registered on your network..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
This ROM looks good. I haven't tried ICS or any CM based ROM before, been playing it safe with Samsung based stuff so far.

So, I'm a little hesitant to try this. If anyone using it could offer some advice...

Does it work well for day-to-day use? Battery life, making/receiving calls, GPS, general stability, all ok?

Will it still last a few days with 3G turned off?

If I flash this coming from a Samsung Gingerbread based ROM, do I have to do a factory reset? Losing settings is a pain.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
That's ok :)

1 yes

2 better then CM7 (still not as good as Samsung but almost the same)

3 yes

4 yes

5 still have to encounter a single FC

6 some apps may not be compatible for ICS

7 depends on your usage (2days usage on Samsung is allot!)

Settings from GB ROM don't mean anything on ICS ROM.

You have to flash clean

.

1 clean your internal sdcard from GB leftover directory's (better backup your stuff and format it clean)

2 make sure you have ClockworkMod Recovery installed (flash any GB kernel with that)

3 reboot into recovery using 3 button combo

4 do a Nandroid backup (in CWM) in case you want to revert back

5 wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition + dalvic cache

6 flash base

7 flash essentials

8 wipe again

9 reboot

10 enjoy :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yogeesharma:
thanks

SMS is giving trouble in RC2.. lemme try RC3

Pl post addon theme for RC3 asap

themes pack for rc3 ps

Thanks for ur built. Please add theme pack for RC3 ( % battery). Maybe a music player from Samsung (galaxy nexus or Nexus S )^^???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
What kind of trouble? Please be more specific, I like to know as the app is optimized,... Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jedi5diah:
i'm so Glad you decide to tweat ICS at such early stage cause i have been missing your light version for a long time (GB)

Rocking Solid as ever!!!

Just a note that i noticed on ICS browser is the "select text" function is "buggy" as it wrap the text before i even zoom in therefore leaving an empty space at full site view. is there a work around?

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
Thanks for the detailed reply :)

Restoring apps (minus the settings) using Titanium backup is still ok though?

Think I'll give this a shot...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Just the apps would be ok a guess (never tested restoring apps with TB). Be sure titanium backup is the same version as the one in this ROM (latest free version from a few days ago).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tagadroid:

Flashing the ICS keyboard doesn't seem to work. Can't enable it in settings, still only see Swype.

I'll just use the one from the Market for now, it's virtually the same anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Thanks for reporting, I just re-uploaded it, should work now ;)

Please report back...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
Seems to work now.

Another one: AOSP launcher seems to be missing in Launchers addon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Not missing at all, look again ;) ICS AOSP Launcher is in /app and will be copied to /system/app on you phone (the others in /data/app) :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] salmanr86:
solution to battery drain

battery drain is a real turn off for this rom,

also it is getting slow as i m installing apps, how do you guys manage to overclock it ? i tried using voltage control but it resets the values on reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
When I press the home key for the first time or look in Home Switcher it isn't there, but the others are.

When I first flashed the Launchers addon I deleted the app folder in it because I only wanted the AOSP one. That didn't work so I flashed the un-altered Launchers addon again, and I see everything but the AOSP one.

Maybe what I did screwed something up? I don't usually modify Recover files like that so I'm not sure what I did was ok?

Edit: Re-downloaded the package and installed again, fixed now :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] surya_mca:
After overclock thru voltage control u need to check the option for save on boot..

so tht it ll be saved and won changed aftet every reboot...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
LoL not so smart here are we? You just flashed it, how can you tell :)

It's Teamhacksungs ROM Build 10 stripped and it sure is better then CM7 battery.

Not so good then Samsung's but almost getting there...

BTW you just flashed so you need to give it some time an recalibrate your battery stats... :rolleyes:

Voltage control is working perfectly fine, its the kernel that does not support init.d script loading @ boot. That's why saved settings are not loaded @ boot ;)

:confused: you did what. Like I said, the apps folder is containing the launcher you needeed and you deleted it. That's why it doesn't showed up in Home Switcher o_O

Nope not ok o_O

:rolleyes: :) LoL

Nope, won't work. The kernel does not support init.d (yet) so scripts will not load... Saving has no use as folder does not exist even if you create it manually, script will not load
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
No in my modified version I deleted all the other launchers but for some reason it installed nothing (I left launcher2.apk there).

Then I flashed your version, it installed all the launchers except AOSP.

Then I tried flashing your version again twice and the AOSP launcher magically appeared :p

So I don't know what I screwed up but it's fine now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dangrayorg:
Installed - wow! Painless from SD card and love the speed.

Great work.

Will I be able to install future releases without wiping the phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Onraad:
Just flashed RC3 and really happy to see both 3G and calendar sync working fine :D

Thanks Sam!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
yes

Great, what about syncing with exchange mail and exchange calendar?

Can you (or somebody else) test that please.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dragonkhan9:
the add on themes i not separate add on pack???

and it possible to instal the last update to trebuchet launcher

it's ok it's possible thank's
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Sure, download and flash Add-on Launchers from 1st post and you have Trebuchet Launcher 0.1)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dragonkhan9:
and for the add-on thémes it is not separate add-on pack
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dark4eons:
Yeah I've noticed that we're back to default theme and there's no pack or link provided to the theme pack to switch to the changes introduced in rc2 (<3 the battery %) but I'm going back to surface v8 since ics in general eats batteries really fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] skyworxx:
I'm sorry if this has been asked already, but is it possible to enable the %-Battery witj stock ICS Launcher?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Base will remain clean, look here for theming and thank the man ( also consider donating to him, he needs that to for his notebook fundraising or something...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MoooN:

finally you arrived @ ics

It's normal I can't add my google account?

When I click on "Add an account" nothing happens!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
No it isn't, try again, or re-flash ;) It's working fine for everybody :rolleyes:

Don't forget to flash the Essentials Add-on (

without it there will be no Google account

!). Google apps may not be bundled in one package in CM. That's why there is separate Gapps and my Essential Add-on (basically the same as

latest

Gapps, stripped down, optimized and zipaligned...) :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Banana.Pancake:
Haha I'm so stupid... I didn't install the essential Add-on!

Thanks a lot!

Is it possible to have an another keyboard than swype? Like that:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dlockhart:
I notice the app drawer is really laggy on a few different launchers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
It isn't on Zeam Launcher for me with about 120 app in the app drawer ;)

What launchers did you test? Did you test the Threbuchet Launcher and the others from my launcher add-on @ 1st post?

Just tested onecosmics RC1 and it isn't the same smooth feeling and experience I got with this one :rolleyes: (the only plus I see is the new kernel with init.d support...)

Will release ICS S.U.R.F.A.C.E. v1.0 Final soon, and will add the possibility to flash the v3.08 FuguMod kernel separately ... :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dlockhart:
Zeam was was fine and I am trying trebuchet now.

LauncherPro was almost un-usable

Go launcher - works, but lots of glitches

ADW - laggy app drawer, overall was okay

360 - won't even open

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jedi5diah:
thx! downloading them now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dlockhart:
trebuchet won't install on final?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Maddmatt:
Awesome. I notice you added Spirit FM radio. Funny, I was just trying that app on RC3.

Couldn't get it to work very well, lots of static. Anyone found settings to get it working well on this ROM with good sound quality?

AOSP Launcher is nice, but after trying it I just went back to Go launcher because folders only worked on the home screen, not the app drawer. App drawer folders are important to me, otherwise it's just too crowded.

Pity Go launcher is a little glitchy here, hope they add proper H/W acceleration support.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SAEVARM3:
Go Launcher crew is very active in Updating the launcher... it just got Update about an hour ago or something, they will be keeping up to date :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wonsky21:
Guys, try ADW Launcher Ex on ICS SURFACE :) It's buttery smooth, and light, and has more features than Zeam Launcher.

Anyway, I guess I don't need to hurry with flashing Final since I don't need Radio, and put my APN's manually? ;)

As always, good job Sam :)

Merry X-Mas
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alpal2:
Guys, now I really have to ask a question: I have flashed many, many Roms. But with every ICS-version (Sam's or "build 10" directly) I have the problem that after flashing (with no error) I do see the changed initial screen with cyanogenmod wording but the system doesn't boot - it simply goes back to recovery, no matter what I do. That's not a bootloop, AFAIAC, yet I did try to wipe and install again etc, but to no avail.

Is this a problem with the bootloader? Any idead how to fix this? Would like to try ICS...

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 PM ----------

damn, I think I may have just found the solution: http: //xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1398223, in the instruction section, where it says:

"If you have rebooted and your phone will not go past the kernel screen

1. Boot into CWM and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.

2. Reflash the appropriate kernel.

3. Reboot."

No. 2 appears to do the trick. Will need to try it. Can anybody actually confirm that approach?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
What you are talking about IS a bootloop :rolleyes:

Both ROM's will boot up correctly if you flashed them correctly...

Just pull out battery and go true the flash sequence again, it will boot up just fine ;)

If it isn't working, try flashing stock Samsung JVZ or JW1

clean

in Odin (make sure the package contains bootloaders and that you check repartition). Also clean your internal SDcard from leftovers (format will be best).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Onraad:
I've encountered your problem everytime I flash Surface ICS while I'm on stock JVZ+Semaphore kernel. However, pulling the battery, booting in recovery mode, and flashing from there has worked every single time so far. When I'm on Surface ICS already, the problem hasn't occured (obviously).

Sam, is there any reason to update to final if I'm on RC3 with APN manually added and working? I don't care for FM radio and Rom Toolbox can be installed via the market, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alpal2:
Thanks Sam.

I'm sure they do - it just don't for me ;-) I am certain it's not a problem with your ICS version, it's rather my phone having problems with the ICS bootloader - or kernel.

I had that once before with one GB firmware version; a weird workaround that I found eventually made the custom Rom work. I just don't have a proper ICS base firmware to flash first, not to mention a choice of them. ;-)

Nope. At least not when using the way described in your OP/2nd post. I even tried different kinds of variants - there are always several ways leading to Rome. I just always get stuck in Milano :D Maybe I have to flash CM7 first.

Already done. I have to to that anyway to get back to my GB Surface v8 after those failed ICS attempts. Simply reflashing v8 doesn't work, with CM kernel and CWM5 installed.

Btw, I can't even get rid of the CM kernel, not even when using ODIN to flash midnight kernel. I have to flash the entire firmware, although a bootloader update is not necessary to get back to GB. That I find a bit weird!

Nah, I have never ever had to do that to get a Rom working, not even CM7 (I've been through them all...). And formatting the internal SD is a bi**h with what I have on there - takes forever to copy it back.

Anyway, will try with flashing CM7 first. But that will have to wait a few days. :-/

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ----------

Well, I'll try it again (without going through CM7; don't have time to download that first, GB firmwares I have and can flash in a minute). Will report back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
Nope, after what you did (and said) no reason to update ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Onraad:
I hope this isn't a persisting problem but Android OS is consuming a lot of battery.. like 30% or so.. Batterylife doesn't seem good atm, but I will wait a couple of cycles..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
It's written in the "known issues" list ;)

It's just the display, not real...

Android OS is really draining my battery bad! I went to bed with 40% or so, and when I woke up my battery had died. I turned on my phone to see what happened, and noticed that Android OS was at the top of the list with 44% usage.. Phone had only been on for about 15 hours, and I was sleeping for half that time. Android OS kept my phone awake for over 5 hours. Unfortunately I failed to make a screenshot..

Will flash Final now, as I was still on RC3, and see if that helps..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] El Aidge:
@Onraad

It seems to be a bug of the 4.0.3 ics firmware. Nexus s users with the official 4.0.3 seem to experience this to, so we'll have to wait for a new firmware eventually.

I am so impressed with this its unreal! Last night I charged my phone to 100% unplugged and rebooted charged again to 100% rebooted to recovery unplugged and wiped battery stats. Rebooted system. Left my phone unplugged over night (6h-7h) woke up this morning and my phone was still at 100%

Doesn't get much better than that. Extremely well done Sam and anybody else who helped with this.

Happy holidays to all XDA members.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] remichi:
Great rom this ICS S.U.R.F.A.C.E.!

Just wondering a few things:

- Why does the explorer only recognize 1 directory of my external sd card? (Which contains more than 1 directory..)

- Is it possible to install the old samsung camera app? I really liked the way of taking panorama pictures in the old app.

- With faster fix I put the Gps server on NL and left Gps Test app on for more than an hour. However it does not find a fix properly. (multiple satellites in view, 0 in use.)

Thanks and keep up the good work!
