Air 3.8 voodoo renders 363mb. You will get the same free memory with or without bigmem patch. You only get the performance and video encode and decode stability in YouTube and camcorder for example with the patch.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Would rather the speed!
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
WP I really like your rom, the only thing I dislike is the transparent notification area, very often the symbol at the top are unreadable and other notifications sometimes to .. Could you maybe tell me what I have to edit in systemui.apk or framework.res to get the default values ? I can't expect you to post a version with default notification area so I want to try to do it myself ..
[Nexus S Android Development] Andrew1998:
I would install this rom with the best kernel ! Air kernel ? Matrix kernel ? Other kernel ? I don't know , can you advise me ?

I have on my nexus s the 4.0.4 stock but in some games as Temple run i have many records and i would like to transport this on new rom...how i can make this ? I can not use TITANIUM BACKUP :(
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
I will sort you out some tools for that very job.

EDIT - attached the correct version of apktool for 4.0.4 versions of SystemUI.apk. Needs to be used in conjunction with a standard aapt.exe and apktool.bat (under Windows).

The values of drawables.xml under values in SystemUI.apk need to read :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

[Nexus S Android Development] ismailham:
Hello W.P, I noticed in the benchmarks done by bedalus of the newest 1.71 pixel rom, that its 2 % slower than 1.6.

Is that because of the new IMM76D build?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
The raw scores are higher.

The percentage may seem lower, but this is due to the mathematics of how the raw scores are compared to each other before the final percentage value is created.

The percentage shows how the ROM performs relative to the average of all ROMs.

The 2% drop you mention is not because Pixel ROM is doing worse, but in fact it is because more of the other ROMs are improving.

(Remember, performance is not everything!)
[Nexus S Android Development] cowst:
WP: are you using this Trinity? TEUV-NS-CM9-230312
[Nexus S Android Development] Wir3start3r:
Thanks for the best rom in my opinion and combined with air kernel -> incredible
[Nexus S Android Development] ismailham:
Thanks for your clarification Bedalus, it makes lots of sense :) your benchmarks are very accurate, and this infact is the fastest ROM i have tried so far.

Thanks to Wildest pixel for providing such a stable/speedy/power efficient Rom. This is the first ROM I enjoy a flawless ICS experience on
[Nexus S Android Development] UserProfile:
On stock kernel also worse (Solo Guitar)...

Can check in your phone or anybody on phone?

Big lag when fast playing...

On 4.0.3 is ok...

More information:

- radio i9023XXKl1

- stock kernel

- stock rom 4.0.4 IMM76D

[Nexus S Android Development] OcBrain:
As you guys said I can see the BIGMEM working with trinity kernels, but i turned back to matr1x kernel because of the higher range of frequencies I can use to tweak my CPU.

However this is a really fantastic, fast and light rom with a great battery life and stability. No freezes at all and no reboots so far. My congratulations wildestpixel!!! :)

Could love a Fully Touched version like you did with 1.60 ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] renna1992:
Would anyone mind sharing a battery percentage mod for the latest 1.71lite touch?
[Nexus S Android Development] Ibn Saeed:
How do you reboot the device, i dont see an option for Reboot in the Power Menu.

I want to install a custom kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
Power off. Volume up and power button to boot into bootloader, then simply choose recovery :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Ibn Saeed:
Thanks i had totally forgotten about this initial method.

Slim ICS had me used to having a Reboot in the Power menu.

If you now go back a few pages you will see I've edited my post with a modified version of apktool for 4.0.4 systemui.apk and given the correct values for non transparent notifications.
[Nexus S Android Development] matrix888:
good rom congratulations! , Shame about the toggle, I preferred the locksren to toggle on toolbar.

after 2 days of work on the new theme with about 100mb of files, unfortunately I do not load the rom stops on google logo with padlock. Now I'm a bit disappointed after so much work and research of icons, now I stop and feel the MIUI BRAINMASTER and then return I hope more will load

No benchmarking crisis, just turned out to be a minor hiccup due to init.d issues. All sorted now. Your normal benchmarking will now resume.

Just use that of 1.70, I use it, it works well :)
[Nexus S Android Development] punitanasazi:
I was on stock 4.0.4 before this ROM, and I am not at all surprised that it scored so high. Really, Google has done a brilliant job on the stock ROM. Although not taking away from the work done by people like WP, but with the new stock ROM, the developers would really need to up their game

On a side note, there is no Screen Shot option in the Power Menu??

How do i take a screen shot otherwise? Please help
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
okay im reading about this bigmem and how you need a compatible kernel. Im using airkernel 3.8 but with the wifi fix, dont ask why its just the version i downloaded. If i place the regular 3.8 on my i9020a with 1.71 will this bigmem give me more available ram?

if someone could just lead me in a decent yes/no direction it would be appreciated.

thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] tchaari:
There are many apps in the market to do screenshots. Just make a search in google play with the key word "screenshot" :)
[Nexus S Android Development] EdForce1:
@ tevil:

For me it's confusing, read somewhere that it should support bigmem, but others say that it doesn't based on personal experience.. Me i installed Trinity T11, and voila. If you get it to work with Air Kernel let us know. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
does trinity give you decent battery life? if so can you pass the link to the kernel your using? is it on a 9020a?

thanks

Try pressing 'power+volume down' at the same time for a second or two and it should take a screenshot.
[Nexus S Android Development] cdpango:
ICS supports screenshot natively. Just hold vol down and power button AT THE SAME TIME for about 1 second.
[Nexus S Android Development] atxbang56:
Any idea ? I think it's not ROM related and not Kernel either...I don't know how to fix that.

Does any app can control vibrator ?

[Nexus S Android Development] Nexus.S:
I can't download anything from the net or attached files in emails..?
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
A lot of bedalus's work is pointing towards IMM76D not handling various tweaks that we've been using since GB. Stock IMM76D is faster than the tweaks we are trying to replace various settings with - so there are tweak conflicts.

I've ripped a load of tweaks out but maintained some non init.d based ones including BIGMEM.

Result is staggeringly smooth.

ok thank you! try but with win after Vista will be hard : ( grrr

if v1.72 has only the kernel poenso to stay with 1.71a because I am comfortable with icpu :)
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
thought mirror was exactly what it said. mirror. but this mirror of yours has more stuff than your main site! :)

downloading right now, both the BB tweaked by you and 1.72 pixel!

since 1.72 pixel is still lite, it doesn't have the notification toggles?

edit: the tweaked BB works flawlessly. I flashed trinity on it and it is just too blue for my taste...but I guess I will get used to it for the extra ram. ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
You only need to create a mod pack for the rom instead of a whole rom every time. Only the files that are changed from mine need go in it.

Sweet. Just realised my Xoom is in my signature on some posts. There's another candidate for performance tweaks.

Are you releasing a tweaked version of this? I really liked the mods in 1.6, was very helpful.

Some things I'd like:

-Quad lock

-notif bar toggles at the top (small icons)

-normal (non-transparent) notif bar. Don't really like the transparent one.

If these two or three small options get put in, I'd love to use this as a daily driver.
