I'm getting FC in Gmail with the inverted Gapps if I flash them over a ROM with the normal Gapps.

Has anybody come across this? Is there a solution for it? Is there thread on the inverted Gapps (I haven't found one yet)?

Hi, this is my bug list, just small things:

- Hot Reboot isn't working after rebooting it makes normal reboot

- black Calendar widget isn't working, I think it's just white text on white background

- I'm receiving two calendar alarams on every event, solved by disabling black Calendar

- there could be SMS parts message counter, possibly black text on black backround, but I'm not really sure

- camera problems with Goggles, but it's just overall camera problem

- I'm not able to set favorites contacts, there is only one from my previous rom

I'm using 4.2 Stable.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Yes. Just clear app data from Settings-App. You'll be fine
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
Duh! I should have thought of this!

Hi,

I downloaded Google play book the new Google books basically and I downloaded a free sample from the market and it said it can't display the book, I also have other books and they all can't display but I switched to another account and the books I had on there showed up so switched back to my account and the same problem is there. And also I can't buy stuff from the market?

Edit: I updated to the play shop and I can now buy stuff
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Prox, if you read through here and have some time, maybe you could give a hand. Since IceColdSandwich 4.3 test 4 (that is test 4 and 6), the phone doesn't boot after flashing. It remains in the "HTC logo screen" no startup animation, no nothing. I did the same as before but maybe something was changed in the DHD ROM and the files provided by you do not work anymore.

If it's complicated to write here you could as well send some clues/indications via PM. I would like to be able to make DS versions of that ROM and test them

Thank you in advance
[HTC Desire S] kaijura:
You should try running adblogcat.

If you see it just loops and repeats on:

Netd 1.0 starting

Netd 1.0 starting

>>>>>> AndroidRuntime START com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit <<<<<<

Netd 1.0 starting

>>>>>> AndroidRuntime START com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit <<<<<<

etc, similar to that loop then it's related to an incompatible proprietary file of libsurfaceflinger.so in /system/lib/

I figured that out because I recently had the HTC bootloop hangs for vivo is due to recent commits from changes in libsurfaceflinger. For us in IncS we rely on a patched build of surfaceflinger in order for our softkey lights to rotate by custom script.

See the git changes:

https://github.com/IceColdSandwich/...kp/services/surfaceflinger/SurfaceFlinger.cpp

To fix it you can either compile the newest commits (which should likely work and generate the proper surfaceflinger) or you can try pushing old versions, which is gambling.

Good luck
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Replacing the libsurfacefinger &libsurfacefinger_client should do :)

Nooooooo!! My phone has suddenly frozen. 3button combo does not work and I better do not want to pull out battery :( thank god I've had "just" 19% battery. Btw. I am curious if "dont pull out battery" rule is just a case of Desire S or any other device also?
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Just the Desire S. And don't worry, the phone should turn off itself before battery runs out. Maybe 10 minutes from now ;)
[HTC Desire S] faddys123:
What happens if you take the battery out? I do it all the time
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
some people damaged their phone by pulling out the battery when the phone was frozen. The emmc chip has been fried. The damage is irreversible. New motherbard is required.

Anyone facing this kinda text prob??? which although resolves after a few mins... but still.... n im using v4.3 test2...
[HTC Desire S] nedd1:
My phone goes into a locked state a couple of times a day at this stage (using test release)

just leave it for about 10 mins and it will reboot itself. Seems to happen more and more when opening "Draw Something"
[HTC Desire S] Luca_BR:
Great ROM but i don't like "dark theme". It couse me few problems with keyboard. How can i change background color?
[HTC Desire S] Frostbeule2k:
The original ICS keyboard (grey theme) is also installed. Go into the settings -> intput and change the standard keyboard.
[HTC Desire S] Luca_BR:
Great! Thank you. And what about the black background? I also have difficulty to reading mail with dark theme. I need to wait for a new version?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
The ROM linked here contains inverted GAPPS. If dark background in applications is not ok for you, flash a standard GAPPS package like the one found in CM9 thread.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Just flash the gapps package in post #2 and all the dark apps will become stock.

[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
same problem, switched back to endymion , waiting on new reslease .....:)
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
I think flashing normal gapps would fix this issue. Also, market is having some problems since the Google Play update.
[HTC Desire S] Luca_BR:
I've flashed normal gapps and Gmail went back to normal but I still cannot find it on the market. Anyone have this problem with the last version of this rom?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Some Google apps are not found on Market for several geografies (Google's policy). It's possible that Gmail enters in this cathegory. I remember I was not able to find Google Maps due to this reason. What you can try is to download Market Enabler (free from market) and "emulate" an US carrier (T-Mobile or Verizon). After doing this, open Market again and search what you like to find...Gmail in this case. You might have better luck like this. Oh...about to forgot...make sure you have standard DPI set for our device that is 240. Lower screen DPI provides more space on screen but is less compatible with some apps on the market that will say "app is incompatible with your device"
[HTC Desire S] Luca_BR:
I see... I've checked out my settings an they're 240. I've also reinstalled market with the new one (play) but nothing happened.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
Sometimes, helps app close or restart. I think it's connected with GPU acceleration.

EDIT: It was related to unreadable text problem...
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Install MarketEnabler app link HERE. With it you can fake other carriers. Set temporary (not at boot), to T-Mobile or Verizon USA and then enter in the market and search again
[HTC Desire S] Luca_BR:
Done,but it still not work. Should I restart maybe?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Theoretically no need for restart. Settings are in effect immediately. After restart it's reverting to old carrier.

Ok, I've checked and it doesn't appear for me also but I'm on non standard DPI. I've looked on PC in the market and I can see it there (link below). It says for me that is not compatible with "some" of my devices but as I said it is due to custom DPI.

If it shows for you, you should check if it's compatible and if yes you can install from there. In short timpe it'll be downloaded on your phone

:( Since I'm not a dev, the "compiling" part is a little difficult. If one can tell some steps to be done to go from the commits to a working library it'll be great. I've tried to replace the 2 files indicated by vampire with some found in older ROM's that booted up (test 2 or 3 for ex) but no success, there were other errors about the graphic library showing up in logcat
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
I can work only after tom...well if you can tell me the exact errors can tell the files...with hectic office just dont get time...:)

well seeing though this thread is about a port of IceColdSandwich, i'm pretty sure he's talking about the new version of IceColdSandwich ready to port! :p

[HTC Desire S] Brody5:
That would be so good to know. Thanks
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Good news is that using last files provided by proxuser, the IceColdSandwitch v5.0 boot up. And it's...nice :) I'll see if the problems with the previous betas remain (random reboots and so on). For now it works great. The only issue is that I'm missing Mail and Exchange Account...dunno what happened. I'll try to find a way to get them back. Flashing the inverted GAPPS package didn't do it, I'll try with the one from CM9 thread...strange

Bad news is that I'm at office and the uploading from here sucks big time. I can only get errors when uploading, it disconnects at some point. I've tried Mediafire and FileFactory and with both is the same. That means I cannot upload for you guys :( If no one will upload a working port, I promise to upload this when I'll reach home in the evening. Meanwhile maybe I can sort the Exchange thing as well.

In case others will flash this ROM, please confirm if the Exchange/Mail is general issue or it's only for me. I flashed with full wipe btw.
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
i'm just uploading v5.My upload sux too but i beleive it will be done in 25 min.

Thx proxuser for system files.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Ok so regarding email, it was not showing up after flashing the version of inverted GAPPS I was currently using. I pushed email.apk from a standard GAPPS into /system/app and it's ok. Only thing is than now mail is no longer dark.

[HTC Desire S] robba16296:
Can't you try to install the dark email app from the rom.zip separately??
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
As soon as I push the "dark" email.apk to my phone, email icon disappear and also the exchange account from Accounts&Sync. Maybe it's incompatible with the new ROM. For now I leave it like this, at least is working

Ah ok ill make sure i include a few more mirror sites on upload next time :)

And yeah i did clean install, just seems to be a bit hungry on my battery , although app use is normal, Screen 75% then all others tiny (5% ish)

I was just on settings, and watched the battery go from 81% to 78% right in front of my eyes.. like within few seconds...?! eek.

May do fresh install again. I'll see.

Such a stable rom though, love it :)
[HTC Desire S] LorD ClockaN:
What!

The Camera doesn't work! When will that be 100% fixed???

Enough of this, glad to see my rom here.. I hope you'll all have a good time with it.

Btw, this rom doesn't have anything to do with the virtuous, quattro. They don't give up source to public, so don't know what they've done to it.. Maybe our own rom mods come from the same place like aokp git

I'll keep an eye on this thread... Also, I will be releasing the new final version for dhd today or tomorrow, so vampire, get ready for more information porting

Sent from my ICS!!!
[HTC Desire S] outsidetown:
Any word on call quality? Mic issues?

It was an issue I had with previous ICS ROMs, wondering how it compared now.

Edit:

Downloaded the ROM from the Rapidshare link and it cannot be opened - installation is aborted. Just a heads up!
[HTC Desire S] patko226:
could you somebody add mirror for inverted.zip please? is not possible download it from dropbox....
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Awesome!

Great to see you here man. You're like a legend around xda territory. I wish you had a DS so you'd hang around here more often! It would be great to taste some of your work on this device (we've siphoned off quite a lot of stuff from the DHD, and must say, it's been delicious!)

And a big thanks to vampire for bringing this port to the DS. :)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Thank you for the awesome work, my mistake, I'll edit also my initial post. I was referring to Virtuous due to the multitude of customizations included in the ROM and some I've saw also on Virtuous. Also I've flashed it with only cache wipe over Virtuous Quattro "pre" RC4 and works great.

Some things I've noticed:

1. Camera works both front/back and with preview on both. I saw alot of users asking this.

2. There's an issue when selecting different battery icons (it's noticed in the video as well), but you can finally select the one you want making several tries and cycling through available options.

3. There's a problem with Mobile Data connection. After a reboot there's 3G selected. I have to restart radio to have HSDPA...or it'll stay on 3G forever, not switching to HSDPA. Is this a known/confirmed issue or it's only for me?
[HTC Desire S] LorD ClockaN:
before every battery icon selection you must wait a second or two and press hide battery icon..

I hope that new version will bring fully functional camera except video and better mobile data.. ;)
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Ahhh okies Lord...Sure would port your next version as well...this thread has already passed my expectation so will be on my toes now :)

Thanx to your awesomeness...
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Guys a quick one...would you like all the inverted gapps present by default in the rom...or as a separate add on next rom onwards ???

So that people who dont want it can flash a normal gapps ?

Mirror 2 : up with md5

Gapps Inverted : Mirror added :)
[HTC Desire S] bleach1:
Hi thanks for a great rom,just one thing

how do we get rid of the black bar (the home button) when trieng to write/send text mesages ??
[HTC Desire S] steelbeans:
I think it looks smarter with the inverted gapps, so i would include on release... and supply a normal gapps to flash if wanted :)

Just my opinion though

[HTC Desire S] patko226:
i prefer black one... :)

in your video you have used coll widgets... what is it?
[HTC Desire S] Electrostatic King:
I love the ROM. Was wandering and struggling to choose either Virtuous Quattro or CM9. Then this popped up. Gave it a try and for sure, I'M NOT GOING BACK !!!
[HTC Desire S] tankos:
Great work! Have used Quattro and CM9 but love the extra options in this version! If I were you I'd keep the inverted GAPPS - looks amazing and also helps to differentiate it from the other flavours of ICS... :)
[HTC Desire S] steelbeans:
Seems with most custom roms that the camera/camcorder doesnt work....whats the deal with this?? Does it take long to sort out?

[HTC Desire S] Jiia:
Because the entire Camera/Gallery combination works totally different in ICS than in previous Android versions. It might be fixed tomorrow or when HTC publishes its own ICS around 2012 Q2.

You have to build it from source. It's the same way you update and build from cm9 source. When it compiles a new build, it generates the new library files for you based off on what new commits or changes were, if there were any changes that rom revision.

[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
no, wallpapers seemed to be quite buggy, both live and normal. 5.1 has fixed that.

On a side note, V5 is by far the fastest ICS ROM available (and the smoothest). If you haven't tried it yet, give it a go. It is blazing fast. With nk111's face unlock fix, this ROM would be absolutely perfect. Absolutely amazing work here by Lord Clockan.

Although i'm quite surprised the decision to switch to nova launcher wasn't supported by many. It is much faster and much more customisable than trebuchet right now. I haven't tried trebuchet with v5 but nova couldn't have been smoother.
