Curious how many of you who are running an ICS ROM, have tried flashing the appropriate firmware that mike1986 posted earlier. Big change in speed and bugs etc?

I'm sorry boss I am not seeing an android keyboard input issue mod. I see the stock ics mod gives is a keyboard however I preferr sense.

I appreciate this thread very much thanks for offering it. These sort of issues get lost in the arhd thread I'm sure many of us would agree.

Thanks for your time.

I also have the same problem with ICS & wifi.

The only way Wifi works on ICS roms is to flash the rom & start up with my SIM card removed. But once I put the SIM card back, wifi stops again.

Is only my phone's problem?

[HTC Sensation] sly.cooper:
I would like to add one problem. I have tried 5 different ROM's and all produced same results. I did not find any answer so far.

Security settings does not open (unfortunately settings has closed) after enabling ActiveSync policies. I believe this was reported by one more user in the ARHD thread. I tried ARHD, insertcoin, RCMix, Elgancia and Ultimate. Please let me know if anyone found a fix for this. Please note that security settings work fine post first install. It fails after enabling Exchange ActiveSync policies.

I just installed ARHD 5.0.2. and I'm having trouble with gallery,but unusual one,haven't found similar. Gallery reads SD card pretty well,pictures taken with camera are shown correctly,old cam pics(from MIUI) are shown also,many more pics that I had on my SD card before flashing are shown,but now I copied ICS wallpapers to my phone,and gallery doesnt show them at all,or if it shows them,they appear unavilable,just like exclamation mark?!Why is this?They are jpg,I can open them from ES explorer just fine,but cant set them as wallpapers. Tried all the solutions,fixed permissions twice,updated su binary..Any tip,solution for this?

[HTC Sensation] Svartsyn333:
I can confirm that.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
sounds like there are thums left in some of the andoird folders on the SD card. best thing to do coming to ICS is backup the SD card and copy on just photos and music etc, just your files and leave the rest of the crap that the system generates which will include thumbs of old pictures.

hope this helps :)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I have had that before as well but not only on ICS.

I force stopped gallery and when reopened it recached the new pictures and I could see them. One of the reasons I stopped using gallery

After flashing this theme, the only difference I got was with the notification bar and pull-down. Do I need to do something else to activate it?
[HTC Sensation] jafazec:
Thanks for reply.

I installed aosp patch,and then did what you told me,removing everything from sd-card that was generated by system itself..Gallery is working,but it lists even those albums that I deleted:) They are blank,but still there,and gallery is always trying to load them..Tried clearing data,but nothing happened..Is there a way to make clear this "cache" of old gallery?

And wallpaper can be set now,but cropping seems to be out of order..Walls are zoomed in,probably because of new launcher included..Can this be fixed?

Edit: Just noticed that icons can't be put on top of the dock,there needs to be that space between dock icons and the upper ones?

Also,is it possible,after applying AOSP patch,to select different notification sounds for sms deleivery report and SMS?
[HTC Sensation] takuhii:
Hi,

Excellent tutorial and fix, you've really helped me pull ICS round on my phone. I'm experiencing some issues with MMS on the Sensation using O2 in the UK.

you can put an MMS message together, but then when you hit send, it just "deletes" the MMS, it vanishes from the thread and never atrives at the other end. there's no FC and no error/warning messages. I can send just fine using GoSMS, but I like the look of the ICS MMS App...

Any help would be greatly appreciated ;)
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
Have you guys managed to get contact merging working properly?

As it stands (with my ROM) contacts all sync from Google, Facebook, etc but do not automatically merge people with the same name. Manually merging them works most of the time but can fail on certain contacts for reason I have yet to determine. I'm just wondering if anyone sees the same behavior using the fixes here or if an existing solution is available so I can avoid having to spend time sorting this myself.

I can get it working using an AOSP ContactsProvider, which breaks HTC phone. Of course AOSP phone simple does not work with the HTC framework, which makes for a complicated set of issues. The simplest path forward seems to be using AOSP ContactsProvider but patching it so that it makes the appropriate classes/methods available to the HTC Phone.

Thanks again. :)

viber

viber not working, please help!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
eak, you need to remove the htc apks and replace them with ICS ones, best thing i can suggest is download the file i put on the first page, see the structure and what is added and then push those files..

you may be able to do it by editing the init.post_boot script, but i havent tried it yet..

also im not 100% sure about forcing cpu1 online all the time, seems to kill battery pretty quickly and heats phone a bit so i removed that from the OP.

something like

echo "1" /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

shoudl make CPU1 online but i dont know if it works on ICS, this is the coding from gingerbread..
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
no sorry viber app doesnt support ICS at the moment, no fix yet
[HTC Sensation] mrew42:
Yeah, tried both approaches, no joy.

I'll keep digging though

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] umartariq:
thanks, I appreciate quick response, just one more question:

is this rom issue or application issue? application needs to be update to run on ICS?

thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
could be an issue with your SD card, maybe try a blank one if u have an extra one, or back everything up, format it and put just 1 song on, see how it goes.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
I dont use it but as i understood its an app issue, app needs to be updated to support ICS

I also have some issues with TB, ... freezing apps does not work for me.

It worked fine on RCMix, but it doesnt work on Insertcoin and ARHD ... weird since they are all based on same ruu...

Uninstall works fine however
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
thats strange, i know ARHD had issues with root access mike1986 had to do another rom version to fix it. all I've used TB for is restoring apps and its worked ok.
[HTC Sensation] mrew42:
No issues at all for me with TB restoring all my apps first time.

In fact it worked too well and beggered up my Music app. lol.

Damn those class 6 cards are a pain when you've got 25Gb of toot on them.... It's taken an hour to backup to my PC so far and then it's just gone up to 35 mins to complete.....

[HTC Sensation] MARCO310791:
I installed RCMix and everything is working fine. Installed as usual, let it finish to boot and rebooted. Rosie seems a bit laggy, especially when i'm scrolling from one page to another, but i haven't any of the problems that are mentioned here. Gallery works fine, same as Music, Titanium Backup, Root, Wi-fi, camera, Face unlock etc. No freezes and no random reboots. In recovery i wiped everything, also cache and i haven't fixed permissions, i just installed normally.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
No not cracked this one yet mate, same as u crashes when merging. I think there's some lib files missing. Mod123 is working on decompiling and rebuilding some of the more core apks. I might try logcat see if I can pick up what its looking for..
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
No sorry not figured this one out yet. Similar to my post above, I think there are some files its calling for which we haven't ported. I'm on same network as u and I'm not able to make it work, like u say just goes and nothing happens. I think its an apn file missing.. we still working on it tho :)
[HTC Sensation] Jaglicic:
If someone has problem with rosie restarts after leaving some apps, like xda application, here is fix that works for me.

Download Android Terminal Emulator from the market and launch it

Type in su then hit enter. (Accept when SU asks if you want to allow root

Type in echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop then hit enter.

Then reboot.

No thanks for me, I found this somewhere on htc hero forum a few ages ago :-)

Thanks buddie really appreciate that, how functional was your aosp base then? We've been using trips as a base. Fixed com.HTC.bg fc I think..

Ultimately my aim with the mod is to find things which can be separated and offer people separate files like stock mms for them to edit the Rom how they want. Then people who want full aosp can go to your Rom. I need to catch up with mox and add u on gtalk when I'm back after the holidays!

3D games don't work?

I've searched the forums thoroughly, but except for some mentions a few threads, I can't find anything about the fact that (most) 3D games aren't working, let alone fixes.

So far I've tried Trial Extreme (demo), Wind up Knight and Air Attack HD, and all of them either get stuck on the initial load screen or they get stuck there with a distorted image. After a while I get a wait/close prompt, but I can still hit home to go back to the homescreen.

Funnily enough, Air Attack HD (only one I tried so far) shows the exact same distorted image on startup on my HD2 running NexusHD2 ICS beta 8, but here it does continue afterwards normally.

Is there a problem with the drivers in ICS? I tried 3 ICS roms so far (ARHD, Ultimite and currently Virtuous) and they all show this behaviour.

I said (most) in the first line because Fruit Ninja Free does work and I'm fairly sure the fruit is rendered in 3D. Perhaps not, though, which could explain why it works. Angry Birds is clearly not 3D and this works fine as well.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:

I've managed to get most of the things right,for now :) But some things,though not so important,are just not giving me peace :)

1.After installing AOSP patch from OP,wallpapers seem to be stretched and can not be postioned properly on HS/LS.Can this be fixed?I guess that it has something to do with launcher scaling? Wallpapers that came with the louncher (hold press on homescreen then select last,new option wallpapers) seem to be better aligned,postioned probably because of different resolution than 540x960.Is this right? Also there is a lot of space between the top of the dock and next icons that should be on the dock.Is this in plan for fixing?

2.Also,is it possible,after applying AOSP patch,to select different notification sounds for sms deleivery report and SMS?

[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I am going to try this tomorrow. I have been researching from mytouch (original) to now how WiFi calling works. Step 1 is get the app loadable.

But everything else I have found revolves around the build.prop for 99% of it. doesn't matter if it is AOSP or Sense.

Ill let you know how it works out. I going to try on virtuous to work. If I can get to work then ill try on others as well.

Wifi Calling on ICS

Ok, with regards to wifi calling...

I actually started with trying to make Wifi Calling work on Trip's AOSP ICS ROM that is over at Modaco. I figured this would be most likely to work because his appears to be using the 2.6.35 kernel which is also used for CM7 (I believe). I actually got it to where wifi calling would load AND activate to the point where a call could be made. Unfortunately it only worked 50% of the time. It would make a call over wifi but once you hung up it froze up and prevented you from making any more calls at all. Other times it wouldn't even let you make the call and just locked up early. This is where I got stuck on his rom.

I thought since I had gotten further with that ROM than the Sense roms that I would see if what I learned could be applied. I made the same modifications to the build.prop file and made sure every appropriate lib was in place and when I tried to launch wifi calling the whole phone froze and required a battery pull.

I've looked at the kernel config on the sense release and it definitely has the kineto_gan kernel module but it does not have all of the same libraries that are in the traditional GB installs with wifi calling, nor does the build.prop have the same entries. I think I'm VERY close on Trip's but I'm wondering if the libs that we have access to just simply aren't compatible with the 3.x kernel line that HTC is using.

Now, I'm not a developer, I'm just a linux sys admin so I've tried to apply what I know from that to this so hopefully somebody with a better understanding of android could step in and help. I can provide detailed notes on what I've tried with both roms as well as specific libs and apks if it will help anybody get further than I have as I'm kind of stuck at this point.
