Yeah, we figured out its usb0, just working on it now.
[Dell Streak 7] FredOak3:
@giveen

Duh, I know that, but it was just a general question if dual boots were possible. I didn't assume it was a Streak only question.

By they way keep up the good work!
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
OK,

I flashed BETA4 and it worked. But during initial configuration I noticed my WiFi MAC address has changed? Why is that? During NVFlash of StreakDroid HD R2 my MAC stayed untouched... I was able to restore it the way it was before flashing ICS.

Despite this I'm still interested in using ICS but would really appreciate that my MAC stays as it is. Is that possible?

And few other questions:

1. Why android market looks and feels like the one from smart phones not tablets?

2. Is trebuchet finally resized or it needs resizing? Cause top row of icons on each homescreen is just under the apps button and search bar. It's pretty annoying when after installation shortcut is added half outside the screen area xD

BTW, first impression of ICS is really good but had to go back to my backed-up HC.
[Dell Streak 7] ElfinJNoty:
just a note,

when i initially installed beta4 i was able to download the chrome beta app from market. the app had an update, and it no longer recognizes my streak as a ics device. says only compatible with devices running android 4.0+

just figured as you guys are working on the new release, you'd like to know that so a proper build.prop device designation could be done to enable as many ics apps as possible.

thanks again for your hard work, very much so looking forward to the next release

may i request a wifi only version?:cool:
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Chrome beta seems to specificlly whitelist certian devices, as in it'll only run on specific ones with ICS (and not only ICS)

There's a patched chrome beta apk on the portal, you could always pretend your're a gnex too.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Hey,

is someone able to anwser my question about preventing MAC change while flasching ICS B4?
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
It's a known issue. My HC backup was created using My Backup Pro. The developer suppied reactivation number won't work but once because of this change in MAC address on reboot.
[Dell Streak 7] Made2Last:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.nathan.jf.build.prop.editor

Under "ro.build.id" change it to "IML74K" without quotes of course and it should work.
[Dell Streak 7] crhylove:
That works perfectly. Copying post to Tabletroms forums.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
If this is a known issue why isn't there a known solution? I know that changing MAC for HTC Hero is possible (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=686789) so maybe it can be done for Streak 7?

I really would like to test Beta 4 out but I have to stick to my current MAC address ;]
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
Are you complaining because the MAC is constantly changing which is a known issue or that you want to be able to change it?

There are several issues and we just have to wait for the issues to be solved.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Changed MAC is the only problem for me so I just wanted to be sure I tried everything.

Thanks for help anyway. Will wait for this issue to be solved someday.
[Dell Streak 7] ssoonngg123:
Thanks for the great Rom! Very stable!

ps: hope 3g/4g could come:p
[Dell Streak 7] khaytsus:
Honestreak does the same thing, drives me crazy. First off my router at work only has 30 leases so I had to lower the release down to like 30 minutes or I'd _eventually_ run out of leases (with other people using it) because every day (sometimes a few times a day when it rebooted) my DS7 would get a new IP. Second, I like knowing the IP so I can adb wifi into it..

I was very careful NOT to mess with the last two partitions which have that information stored, but who knows..
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Hi. I have a question. Does this rom is for Steark 7 or also 3G models only Wifi.?
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
Look at the first post. Yes it does but 3G doesn't work right now.
[Dell Streak 7] cdzo72:
It's for any Streak 7 but you will lose your data connectivity, in other words only the wifi works for now but giveen and DJ Steve are doing their best to rememdy that, little reading of the thread would have told ya that
[Dell Streak 7] Tynen:
Thanks so much! Flashing it now. :)

Just in case anyone was wondering how to get into NVflash mode on the Dell Streak 7 you do this:

Turn the device off

Unplug from computer

Hold both volume keys and power for 8 seconds

Touch buttons should light up

done :)
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Thank you, my good man:). I still have a few questions. Does this rom is stable enough to use it every day? If something wrong with him was the only way to return to the original HC is the method of nvflash? Poorly know English and there a lot of reading:eek:. Thank you again.:D
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
Well, it comes rooted with the ClockWorkMod installed which has a backup/restore function, sooooooooo one "might" be able to restore a previous saved backup using CWM from your HC build. I have one from my HC build but "my" issue is that the backup from ICS beta4 fails to complete. Seeing that, will it also fail to restore??? Otherwise you'd have to NVflash back. I was hoping to flip back/forth.

I must add that I just found out the the CWM came preinstalled and I installed it afterwards. Not sure if that's my problem or maybe the preinstalled version is different.
[Dell Streak 7] vuhothang:
long time on Beta4, i'm waiting for B5. Thanks!
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Hi. This rom support polish language? Only eanglish support?

Download it, extract it, and then look in the region_img folder to see if your language is there. Almost all should be.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Does Beta 4 support USB OTG? Cause stock 514 has it disabled, right?
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
No. Blame Dell
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
So lack of USB OTG is hardware related?

PS

Any news about B5? ;]
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Its driver related.

B5 won't be out for a while and will mainly be a bug fix. I am working on a new recovery mode that could be cool if it works.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Do you intend to add OTG driver in final release?
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
If you can convince Dell to give them to me.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Ah, ok, I understand ;] Shame on you Dell :P

So these drivers are unique for each android tablet? My first thought was to "borrow" them from streak 5...
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Thanks. Polish language is support. Great ROM!!!
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Streak 5 completely different architecture.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
Font in Opera mobile looks like Curier font from windows. I know I have to replace roboto font but don't know with what? Any tips?
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Sounds like a Opera problem.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
This is indeed Opera related problem. It uses missing fonts. Droid Sans Fallback. After downloading the following package and pushing missing fonts to my streak it works just perfect ;]

Package: http://www.ffonts.net/Droid-Sans-Fallback.font

After two days of using Beta 4 I had no restarts (except the one I tried to launch camera xD) but experienced lots of flickering. App just freezes and starts to flicker. I can of course kill it with holding back button but it can be a little annoying.

Rest of known issiues like random MAC or lack of auto brightness aren't that terrible, however I hope they will be solved in Beta 5. For now pretty stable and very fast ROM ;] Good work DJ Steve and giveen!

Docking station

Has anyone used the latest beta with the Dell docking station - how well does it work?
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Curious myself.
[Dell Streak 7] dharmabum:
I used it when b4 first came out. Mirroring worked. But I seem to remember things like hulu and netflix not.
[Dell Streak 7] ghost__:
Not well.

The audio is really the problem for me. I use the tablet in the car and with the latest beta there were a number of problems that prevented me from using it full time.

1) Tasker seems to randomly crash in the latest beta.

2) The audio out sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. When it does work the audio is mirrored in the tablet speaker and that really annoys me.

3) The SD Card "fix" never really seemed to work for me. I made the change so that the system could see the SD Card but the stock Music app never was able to search through that directory so I didn't have any music.

4) The GPS seemed really spotty. Cut in and out a lot.

I'm looking forward to development on this -- hopefully everything gets straighten out in future builds.
[Dell Streak 7] ElfinJNoty:
I use the dock and streak in my car as well. GPS status app run first gets me good locks and then GPS works spot on. I have a wifi only and I've allowed mock locations on both the streak and the cell I tether to while I'm on the road. Can't say I've tested the GPS much without a wifi connection.

As I am going to be mounting the docking station into my dash and will be using the dock as a secondary head unit, the whole point was to utilize all the features of an android tab in my car and give it a factory look in my 06 Mercury Mariner. These sound issues you are reporting make me worry some.

The docking station's rear audio out 3.5 is how I'll have my streak output to the aux in on my primary head unit. The sound mirroring is a big issue for me.

While the kernel is being worked on, may I humbly request that while docked, the internal speakers be disabled?

Very much looking forward to the next release
[Dell Streak 7] cvcduty:
Any news?

I am wondering if the sdcard mounting issue has been resolved. I would love for the camera to work but it's the sdcard issue that is keeping me from flashing... and I would LOVE some ICS on my DS7...

I know the devs have lives, too, so please don't beat me up too much... :D
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
There is a temp fix available to resolve the external SD card mount issue.

Temp Fix for Mounting External SD Card - Thanks Dreamer
1. open file "/System/etc/vold.fstab" using a File Explorer that has SU access
2.Find line "dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard2 auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.2/mmc_host/mmc1"
3.We need this path /mnt/sdcard2
4.Change it to /mnt/external_sd

No Tegra 2 device really has camera working. In the kernel it is working fine, its something to do with the Android built itself.

Also, I editted the OP to show the fixes now.
[Dell Streak 7] cvcduty:
Cool. Thanks. I am out of town now but I will give this a go when I get back... :)
[Dell Streak 7] cvcduty:
Thank you.

I updated my DS7 wifi to B4 ICS build. So far so good. Thanks for your hard work!

I tried the brightness fix... can't tell if the auto-brightness is working. I checked the auto-brightness box under display and changed the value of the file as instructed (221 from 224) but can't tell if it did anything... Anyway, thanks...

Are you guys still developing this ICS rom? Camera issues aside, it seems to be working pretty good. Just wondering if we will see any more of the magic. :)
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Try using the Auto Dim App, its what I use.

Yes, we are still in development but different things in life has us momentarily pulled away from it.
[Dell Streak 7] roast:
giveen, are you using other CM9 project sources for the kernel on your ICS build? (Toshiba Folio 100, Acer Iconia Tab A100?)

Anything we can do to help?

Looks like Acer will release an unofficial build of ICS for the A100, maybe they'll release source and we can get some code/lib's from them...
[Dell Streak 7] siobhter:
There's an ICS build for the T-Mobile G2X (which is also Tegra2) out there. I have that phone and on ICS, the camera works but the video doesn't.
[Dell Streak 7] roast:
I believe there were a few T20 development boards and if we find similar 7" tablets on the same board we may hit the jackpot for driver support and kernel tweaks.
[Dell Streak 7] siobhter:
Well, I'm happy to test whatever on my Streak 7... I'd love to take an active part in building 4.0 for my machine, but my Linux skills leave something to be desired. I put together a build environment, but I could barely get it to "lunch."
[Dell Streak 7] roast:
I think I'll take a crack at a build environment later this week... I figure a vm should be good enough to get something going and the streak 7 is more of a paperweight than an active device in the home...
[Dell Streak 7] siobhter:
I'm actively using my Streak, but I have no problems using Nandroid to backup my daily driver of HoneyStreak. I've read a few things about build environment in a VM and not much of it has been positive.
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
A lot of what we use is actually composed of several things

A) Thosiba Thrive honeycomb parts

B) Dell Streak 7 honeycomb parts

C) CM9 build

D) Our custom ICS kernel + plus our personal drivers we added in
[Dell Streak 7] siobhter:
That's cool! Well, I have a 4G/WiFi model and would be happy to help in any way I can. I'm also interested in trying builds myself, in case you have any pointers for making a build environment or would like any extra compute power.
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
May I ask which one exactly are you using? I am looking for something more automated than root dim.

And also what autobrightness fix were you guys talking about?

Hello,

Hi I have a rooted SG2 and have been trying to brush up on my knowledge of available roms for the sg2 but it is of course a bit arduous doing multiple searches reviewing opinions etc etc and was wondering if there is a wiki or something that does a comparison of the ICS roms that are available?

I of course hear the most about cyanogenmod9 but after reading about some stability issues with v7 and coming to the conclusion that it seems to be more of an “every persons rom” rather than specialized I wanted to see what else was out there (recommendations for lite/uber-stable roms are appreciated).

Cheers,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beaver2233:
If you're looking for an 'uber-stable rom', I would recommend waiting before flashing current ICS builds...while they are quite usable, they still have many bugs and functions not working correctly...I would wait a few weeks and by February or so I reckon we'll have some pretty stable builds...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
Beta testing is really for advanced users... When ics is stable and all bugs are fixed... Virtually all the devs will base their roms on it...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
I would suggest you do your own research in future, its all there, in more than one post, almost identical to this but worded slightly differently.

rom XXLPD custom for SG2

I tried Remix 8.5 based on XXLP6and 8.6 based on XXLPB

LPB is in very good progress versus LP6

3 remarks

the security settings don't function totally ( send SMS, and others functions ) , and like phone locator pro switch off the phone when using it

when screnn off, it is necessary to reboot

I think that in V8.6 CF root LP6 replaces LPB for allowing the apps on SD

but radio FM disappears . with LP6, radio FM is good

quick panel lidroid is very good but I prefer JKAY settings

(with many possibilities )

so I wait a new version of ICS rom for leaving 2.3.6 version

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skully☺:
Hi Gaiko,

Indeed, ICS still is in its beta phase.

I have tried Westcrips ICS Remix v8.2 (currently V8.6) and liked it a lot. However JKay doesn't support ICS yet.

I need the Phone options dialog to make screendumps, so I reverted back to CheckROM Revo v5 with Criskelo's Galaxy Blue theme, thereby "downgrading" the framework, but restoring JKay!

At http://www.galaxys2roms.com/ you can find an overview of SGS2 ROMS, both GB and ICS.

Remember, whatever you do, always make a good backup before flashing a new ROM. Usufull programs are Apkmanager, App Backup and Restore, Easy Backup (doesnt support ICS yet), SMS Backup and Restore, and Titanium Backup.

Kind regards,

Skully☺

i try some ICS custom rom(SGS2) . actualy not bad .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millicent:
My 2c..

Well, seeing that this thread still comes first in 'searching for stable roms', here i go with my somewhat limited experience

my first custom ics rom was Bezke coming directly from stock.

Looked good, many interesting samsung apps i was used to. however, no matter what i tried the phone, messaging and other ssytem apps would keep FC. Mostly the phone app. It might be worth rechecking it again, though.

than i went with Sensation ROM, i guess 4.0.3. there i had real problems making it work. at some point, after installing a secondary app (i guess lockscreen) the phone kept rebooting over and over again. Even before that update, with just the bare os the phone was highly unstable, no network..

Finally, i am happy with ressurection by westcrip. I just upgraded yesterday after having used his 4.0.1 version for almost a month with (almost) no problem. Well, it seems that i lost the toggles but hopefully i will find a fix for that.

hope it helps. hope some other users share their experience on the quest to find a stable rom.

After I bought my GSII I skipped to ICS the second I got home.. I tried the stock one and it was ok, I guess..

Then I tried Lite'ning Rom v2.0 and was pleased.. and continued to update the until 2.6 and then it became to obsolete and buggy

Now I run Dynamic 1.4 (started from 1.0) and I can say I'm very pleased. With normal use (not heavy) I ended up in 3 day and 20% left of the battery, and I didn't have any bugs, all I need and use works.

The last ROM is base without any Samsung app, and without many of the Google apps (remained only the ones that make it work)

Hi guys,

I bought EVO 3d about 4 days ago and I'm really not sure if I have faulty battery or not.

I had wildfire,so maybe I'm little bit spoiled with its good battery life..

For example I'm now browsing and using tapatalk only, with brightness on lowest setting (even capacitive buttons are turned off via screen filter) and after 1,5 hour phone takes 20% of battery!!

Sys info showing that 90% is consumed by display.

Is it normal or not?

It doesn't look like ok to me..:/

I can still return EVO and get desire s instead,if it doesn't have battery life issues...

Thnx for replies
[HTC EVO 3D] cajhaj:
So after this day I have 17 hours without charging, around 5 hours of using dispaly (4h on lowest bright. set. and 1 hour of 60%) this drains 70% of all consumed power

Rest is wifi,some cpu time etc..

Is it ok or not? I had wildfire and battery life with surfing and reading books was unstoppable..

I can also switch this phone for Desire S, but I have no idea how long battery life it has..
