Upcoming build is even better :) Shooting to release it today..if not will tomorrow (Will highly recommend everyone upgrading to this version)
[HTC Inspire 4G] bloodydeath911:
Oh and I have a question:

This rom is really good and almost everything works, why is it still called an Alpha release? Lol can't wait to see what happens in the beta and RC versions :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
Now this is how you fight Android fragmentation :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I recommend it as well because it's very smooth. Everyone should enjoy it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sumkee:
Today is tomorrow right?:p

Existz, just out of curiosity, did you find out anything about the single vs dual APNs? With dual APNs, mine hasn't dropped any data connection yet since yesterday.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I still consider it an Alpha because theres still actually alot of things that dont work/work correctly (ie.. display/video playback issues, issues with sound libs, issues with camera/video camera not working, ..etc..etc) And alot of things we are using right now are just temp workarounds, (ie . sound libs are older ones, these are temp until issues with new drivers get fixed)..plus alot of other drivers we use are just temp fixes... So once all these get worked out, the majority of the drivers will be replaced and we will be right back to where we now, starting fresh testing things.. Theres just to many things that are not working/fixed, or hacked for me to call it anything besides an alpha. Once we move away from these hacked/temp drivers and actually start using the final drivers (and they are semi working) then ill bump it a Beta...but right now its just hacked to much IMO
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Another small feature request, T9 support for dialer so I can punch in numbers to pull up contacts names... :-)
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Pm sent
[HTC Inspire 4G] bloodydeath911:
OK thanks :) I just flashed and I'm really impressed with the smoothness of the launcher compared to ice cold sandwich! Will the new build today or tomorrow improve the launcher speed? Thanks so much for your work, already battery life is amazing
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yea slightly, there were some minor speed improvements added

https://github.com/aospX/platform_p...mmit/83b113d9d390c92505bce95a1979b3eb5223b660
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Dang, you do one heck of a hack job. Lol. As a side note, I am using the the dual apns with very good results. I only mention because I see someone else posting about them. I do note that when I am at home, my wifi indicator in the menu bar shows that I have a weak signal, but speed tests indicate otherwise. Impressive work here for early alpha stage. This rom is gonna be freaking awesome by the time you get it to a final release. Thanks for all the effort and hard work you put into this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] leviatus:
U can try exdialer, has that function + ICS theme so it fits perfectly.

Having said that, would be great if default dialer has that function.

Any possibility for vertical scrolling in app drawer? Found it rather tedious to use the ICS launchers since horizontal scrolling while having 200 apps is rather annoying.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Ditto. This would be incredibly convenient.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Ya I always used to use go dev stuff, but I'm wanting to stay with the stock stuff on ics for now. Not a dealbreaker not having T9, would just be something I think Google should have included stock.

Regarding stock launcher scrolling, I would vote to leave it the way it is since that is the way Google intended it to be... try nova launcher or 360 launcher for vertical scrolling maybe.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Ever since I moved around some pics on my sdcard I've been having terrible problems with the gallery app. It'll lose the pics and just show my picasa pics, if I reboot then they come back but then some of the thumbnails are totally incorrect from another folder. Clearing the gallery app data does nothing. Clearing system cache and dalvik cache doesn't help. Reflashing rom doesn't help. Guess ill try full wiping but just wanted to see if someone can replicate this problem.

Use a file manager and move your pics around on the SD card. Then go into gallery and see what it does.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mwedge:
I am seeing similar issues with pictures disappearing and reappearing. Also if have ringtones on my sd card and they will periodically disappear and reappear in the selection box for ringtones.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Ive had 0 issues with Gallery and/or pics on sdcard ever since i first started using ICS.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gvsukids:
200 apps? wow

Apex launcher also has vertical scrolling.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RampageRR:
At the risk of jinxing myself, same here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Lucky... :p

UPDATE:

I did a full wipe and didn't restore any apps, gallery is only seeing some of my pics... don't know what the hell i did since it was working just fine until i moved pix around, now it is acting so wonky. :/
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I've reported this several times but existz isn't having this issue. Usually if I unmount the sd card then remount it they come back. Of course they show up fine in QuickPics.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Exactly my problem im having. But quick pic isn't as nice looking as ics apps... so i really want to use Gallery...:(
[HTC Inspire 4G] indy1811:
I'm unable to dial any phone numbers having the sequence 0001. Is there any fix for this? I need to dial 000117 to get on to the AT&T bridge.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ELTORO02:
No gallery problems here since day one using ics ..best romm
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Finally! Relief! Fixed my gallery woes.

Deleted contents of:

/data/data/com.google.android.gallery3d/cache

/data/data/com.google.android.gallery3d/database

/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.gallery3d/cache

Cleared app data on Gallery for good measure, wiped cache and dalvik cache for extra good measure, rebooted and now everything's cool...

:screwy:
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
It sounds like you've been digging a mine looking for precious metals :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Lol I know right? :eek:

EDIT: That's it, I'm done with the gallery app, moving on to quickpic. I just opened it and it only shows my picasa pix. Shows a toast notification saying 0 photos / videos available. Installed quickpic and of course no problems there they all are.

I'd ask for help but I dont know if anything can be done, I've done everything plus some. Could we add this to the official bug tracker now?
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
the only issue i have with ICS is the Camera (Which we all know), the rest is perfect if you are not an iWhore! lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] gatonico:
Anyone had used the mod vol key to wake up screen with this rom?

Regards
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
Man, I don't know how this is possible. I have no issues with displaying images in the gallery. The only thing that happened to me ONLY ONCE was that it froze my phone while browsing the photos and I had to do a battery pull to reboot. But since then not a single issue.

Have you checked how it behaves with music files though? Maybe a faulty SD card on the horizon perhaps?

EDIT: But then again, you say that Quickpic works just fine...
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
He said he will include that in the next update..
[HTC Inspire 4G] gatonico:
Thanks for the good news, because the rom is great but in my inspire the power button is broken

Regards
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Ya music works fine. Quickpic works fine. I'm baffled.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
Yep, this is definitely a case for CSI:NY. Those guys can create a GUI interface in Visual Basic to track IPs, your issue would be a walk in the park to them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
i can understand your feelings, i have the same prob with the vol down button (it's not broken but it doesn't works sometimes)... :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] MikeF0209:
Young, how do you like this compare to MIUI?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
Its the future ... ics is very smooth and has features, just little things that make sense. Miui is nice for the theming capabilities but I got tired of all the other problems and switched to cm7, then this. Gotta try it out at least once.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lufis:
Does anyone know if it's possible to disable the constant "Select input method" notification when using a non-stock keyboard?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
The only way I have found, is to have only one keyboard installed. It seems like that shows up if you install a third party keyboard. And it stays in the status bar even if you have stock selected.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I use swiftkeyX and don't have this problem. Under menu/system settings/language&input/ do you have a default keyboard selected? Also do you have a check mark by the keyboard you want to use?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I was using SwiftkeyX as well and I think I was having the same problem as he is. Basically, there was a notification that would not go away and it didn't matter which keyboard was selected as input.

Ill be adding flashable zip for stock battery icons here in a few for those that want it

EDIT:

Added to release post few comments up
[HTC Inspire 4G] lufis:
Yep, that's the one. It's really strange... I've selected Swiftkey as the default keyboard and disabled the others, and still every time I type it brings up the notification. :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] pikey1977:
I had issues with Bluetooth on ar13 where I couldn't talk in phonecalls, but could hear music.

I was using the blue ant t1.

Other than that it was awesome. Stable and awesome, excellent work,guys.
[HTC Inspire 4G] AnyMal:
I have a hard wired Parrot car kit and it works swimmingly with this ROM
[HTC Inspire 4G] Dinman:
?? Hard-Wired bluetooth ....seriously?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dlpatter:
Um thinking the same thing...smh

Ugh.. Bluetooth adapter hardwired into car stereo. What's so hard to understand?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Dinman:
LoL...I'm sorry man...its just that "Hard-wired Bluetooth " statement that got me. Ya gotta admit...you would have questioned it too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
I knew what he meant but was laughing to hard at your guys responses lmao. That and I tripped over the cable that goes into space that provides my wireless feed of the morning news.

[HTC Inspire 4G] AnyMal:
Just flashed AR14 :D I only noticed one small bug so far, radio icon stays grey instead of blue as if not in use, but it works just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
If you flash a different RIL than what's defaulted....you'll lose your radio communications...don't ask me how I know.

(D'oh! Had to reflash ROM to get it back.)
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Data icons will go blue or grey, its the same as with gingerbread turning green with sync/Google server
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Yeah same thing happened here a few pages back. I had been trying to test a few when we were talking about the Bluetooth.

[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Lol I did as well when it happened to me. It did that when I flashed ril and when I tried to change the dpi.

Haven't tried changing the dpi on a14...yet :)

I have moved on to the SGS II Skyrocket, but I still have my inspire for my flashing addiction. This is excellent work. I have been running AR13 for a full day, and I just flashed AR14.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hello_Robert:
Good Job!

Nice Rom!

So far no issues here... Looks Great!
[HTC Inspire 4G] TopazAaron:
Having an issue with the phone freezing. installed this lastnight. installed the inspiremod. and i have had it freeze on me 2 times since had had to do a battery pull.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Did you do a full wipe? Any OC or UVing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
I had the same issue when I was trying to OC over 1.5...have it set at 1.3 and its been fine. (Though would like to oc @ 1.6. :) )

That being said, the more I use this ROM the more I dig it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hello_Robert:
It just froze on me. But it did it when I was trying to use TeamSpeak 3.

How do I send in the bug info?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Mralbino:
Can't get the screen to rotate with AR20, anybody else having this problem? Bad flash possibly? Couple reboots didn't do anything.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I am using Better Keyboard 8 and when I open it in a text field I get a small keyboard in the notification bar. If I pull it down, there is an option to select input method. When I close the keyboard it goes away. There is no popup, so it is not an annoyance. It seems to be a feature for changing keyboards on the fly for those that have multiple keyboards.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Works fine for me, might be a bad flash.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
You didn't restore any system settings from tibu did you?

I got your 10 char right here

Rocking Abso bacon...ics style
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Auto rotate works fine, also setting Launcher to auto rotate (when normal auto rotate is enabled) works fine as well (menu>Preferences>General>Auto Rotate)

On another note, added a temp flashable zip to fix Issue #26 (Alarms set through voice command do not go off at set time) . Fix has been merged successfully into ics-devel on git, so it will be in next release (AR21). Fix has been verified to work.

http://code.google.com/p/aospx/issues/detail?id=26
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Ditto. Reflashed and it still doesn't work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
For those with auto rotate issues...

1) redownload file

2) wipe data/factory reset

3) reflash

4) upon clean boot, test auto rotate (also remember you have to enable it if you want Launcher to auto rotate as well (menu>Preferences>General>Auto Rotate)

EDIT:

Ok, there is an issue here.., logcat is overflowing... going to pull dload for the moment. Give me a little bit to locate the problem, I think I know where this is coming from, but going to have to do a clean build to verify,
[HTC Inspire 4G] MikeF0209:
Hi, loving the rom great so far. No issues and I'm coming from a long time of MIUI use.

question: does 12.59 radio work better than 12.54 from your experience?

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
Do we need to apply inspire mod after flashing this if we are just updating?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yes, you have to flash it each time you update.. But wait a few before flashing, seems theres an issue with auto rotate (possibly more?), i think i know what the issue is but going to have to do a clean build, so its going to take me a hour or so to verify.
[HTC Inspire 4G] DaveTheRave:
Camera Bug?

First off, I want to congratulate existz for the fine rom he has cooked for us this evening! I think it is currently the best ICS rom available to Inspire owners here today :)

Now to mention the issue I'm having. Simply put, every picture I take look like the ones below. I have tried numerous camera apps suggested in this thread, nothing seems to fix this issue. It looks like to me the camera is taking information from the previous photos to fill in the blank/messed up area or something? Not quite sure what is going on, but the picture looks perfect BEFORE it gets captured.. don't know if that helps describe the issue. Regardless, I wanted to see if anyone else was having this issue and/or if there is currently a fix available.

Thank you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Please read Issue tracker before posting issues.

http://code.google.com/p/aospx/issues/detail?id=20

Camera is known issue, does not fully work correctly. We are using a HACK to get old sense libs to work, but alot of things dont work correctly and/or at all with Camera/Video Camera. You can try taking pics in landscape, they seem to do better than taking it in portrait
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
i just updated my inspire without clean wipe, didn't flashed inspire mod, auto rotate is working...
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yea, it seems to work when going from AR19-AR20, but when doing clean install theres a lot of errors in logcat. So ive pulled the build for now, as its possible theres other things that got broke. I think i know where the issue is (most likely due to new compiler and/or fixes/optimizations)
[HTC Inspire 4G] DaveTheRave:
Ahh, thanks! I guess I misunderstood, thought the camera was perfectly working for some people. Alrighty then, I guess it's just a waiting game for now! Not too big of an issue, I can live with it :)

Though, I wonder if there's a way to hack together something to capture a picture from live view? Because like I said, live view seems to have a perfect picture. I don't know, just spit ballin' here.

Thanks again for the great rom and quick response!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Well, for some it does take perfect pictures (I for one have no issues at all when using 3rd party apps, both in portrait and landscape), however with stock camera app only portrait gives me aritfacts, landscape works good. It seems everyone has different results with different apps...and also either with flash on or flash off..etc.. Just have to find the sweet spot that works best for you, but its also possible that neither 3rd party apps and/or in landscape makes a difference for you..its different on most devices it seems
[HTC Inspire 4G] gvsukids:
for me vignette has worked the best others have better luck with camera360

[HTC Inspire 4G] tyler79durdan:
Thank you, I think you,ve found the illusive fix ive been looking for regarding my keyboard and red underline issue... YAY!!!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK!

Please Read Before Posting, And Use Your Search Button. Thank You for not making us read extra posts.
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
Oh... i got lucky that i didn't tried to clean install... lol

BTW should i apply inspire mod now or not??
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yes, you have to flash inspiremod each time you update/flash
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I will have AR21 up later, it will just be a bugfix release, fixing auto rotate issue when doing clean install (possibly others?) and fixing issue #26 . I 'think' i know what went wrong, but its going to take me (hopefully) about a hour or so to verify.. if it is not the problem, then possibly will take me a little bit longer. But i will have it up today. For now, if you already flashed AR20 when coming from AR19, you "should" be fine, but if you done a clean install with AR20 then you will probably have issues. You can flash back to AR19 for the time being.. Also I have pulled AR20 to prevent any more reports about this issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
I just updated again cuz my phone won't start after i changed my font with font changer.

We can't change fonts in this rom using that app? Do we have to do it manually everytime?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
If ur on AR20 there's not much I can tell ya, since it was pulled due to issues posted above and the possibility of a lot more. So anything that happens with AR20 is on your own. As for changing fonts, that I do not know..I only use stock fonts and that's all I can support .

AR21 will be up shortly (20-30min) I have found the issue of reported bugs in AR20, just double verifying before I post it.. Anyone who flashed AR20 is REQUIRED to flash AR21, since the issue was due to the tool chain, its very likely it broke other things. So AR20 is now unsupported, if you have any bugs then please do not report them and/or update to 21.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I follow the font changer thread and can tell you it is well documented that there are known issues with using font changer on ICS. It does not fully support ICS yet. I'm on AR19 and tried it myself. It put me in a boot loop and I had to restore.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
UPDATE

AR21:

Fixed auto rotate not working on AR20 release

DeskClock: fix alarm not setting with voice action issue #26

NOTE:

This is a required update to those who flashed AR20. Any bugs reported while on AR20 will be discarded

and you will be advised to update to AR21. If there is any issues, then you need to do a clean

install (wipe data/factory reset) to make sure the issue can be reproduced on a clean install.

[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
AR21 working great! Thanks for another great build and for always remembering the stock battery zip. Really appreciate it!

Cheers
[HTC Inspire 4G] rdw55a:
Great job as always. Many Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
With ar20 my auto rotate was workij fine, in AR21 (clean install) even after i turn it off it still rotates...
[HTC Inspire 4G] born_fisherman:
works fine here.. maybe reboot? Did you wipe before flashing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Where did you turn it off from? Notification area, preferences or both?
[HTC Inspire 4G] marcbsmoove:
That's not entirely true. I used ROM tool box and I'm using a different font as we speak. Try it!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
If there's any issues going from AR20-AR21 a full clean wipe must be done before I can do anything...the compiler used in AR20 caused some issues and cause things not to perform the way it should, even when updating to AR21...so a full wipe must be done to assure its nothing left over from AR20.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Sorry, I should have capitalized Font Changer. I was being specific to that app.
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
Yes i did a clean install, idk why it was doing that, now i turned it off from settings and it is fine.

I didn't had this prob with AR20.

Sorry about that, it looked similar to the previous bug thats why i thought........

This update is smooth so far, Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
I got you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] MikeF0209:
Yes my AR20 wasn't auto rotating but after AR21 it is :) thanks

Also, how do I remove the vibration when unlocking the phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jochoa:
I have tried dozens of cameras on my inspire, the only one that has worked for ICS is Angel Camera. wouldn't have tried it if I hadn't been trying them all. anyway, for anyone looking for a camera fix try this one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] justFaisal:
Camera360 and Vignette also work!

Should give them a try...
[HTC Inspire 4G] jochoa:
I did... didn't work for me.
