I dont understand whats all this problem with the sweep2wake kernel. tbh i forget i can ever swype to turn of/on screen but i never really noticed any long term or short term battery drain from the sweep2wake compared to the non sweep2wake. i know allot of people say it drains battery but i think its a over exaggeration

not saying your lying but i personally cant see the major difference people go on about
[HTC Desire S] bl4ckb1rd:
hehe the md5sum file for 8.2.1 is wrong.. it's the old one for 8.2 ;)

but md5sum is correct...

looks like you changed the filename later on

md5sum: 6424a0027663f7a5535c508e1ca93258
[HTC Desire S] Rataplan626:
I just don't use that function and as the touchscreen is probably pwoered all the time I think it will actually make a (little) change to battery life. I don't mind having the Sleep2Wake kernel as soon as there is an option in ROM-control to disable it's main feature.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
It's not only the battery drain but also some bugs it has brought...like no ADB for ex.

Rataplan, have you tried pushing the libinput.so provided by nk111 several pages back? It should work with other CM9 kernels. Also don't forget to replace the coresponding file in system/lib/modules (don't remember the exact name, is the one starting with "b")

[HTC Desire S] Grizzly6117:
I dont have any ADB issues with the kernel
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
You can be sure that there is no adb issue caused by s2w. If it was i could not use it :) If you had an adb issue than maybe because of an incompatible (non-s2w) kernel...

The one and only issue i can confirm with s2w is that some people experience touchscreen freezes after calls.

If it "drains" battery or not is a personal view. I'd suggest charge your phone to 100% and then switch to standby and wait until the battery is empty. And then do the same without s2w. If you then can report a noticable time difference - THEN we can say if it drains or not. So it only needs 5-6 days to find out :p Or how long does battery last in standby?

---------- Post added at 03:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

but to stop this "which kernel fits to which rom" madness I will provide a new non-s2w kernel for cm9 and icecold soon :angel:
[HTC Desire S] Rataplan626:
Thanks that would be great.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Same here...After allowing kernel to settle both on par...but guess its more placebo effect...so will be better...

As promised link on OP :)

Link update...Enjoy...

Hope you finding time for JB kernel too...:P

My battery life is the worst on this ROM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't seem to stop playing around with it. It's too smooth! :D :p
[HTC Desire S] Grizzly6117:
I don't know if this is just payback for me saying I didn't see any battery drain problems but I'm getting terrible battery life in this latest build 8.2.1
[HTC Desire S] bayusuputra:
hi all, i've been a member since december, but only active for the past few weeks.. This is my first post since I past the 10 posts mark!

anyway, thanks to all who have brought these amazing ROMs!

I have used the 8.2.1 build but have not tested it extensively.. I wanted to test the 8.2 Build but since the .2.1 came out in a matter of hours after I flashed the ROM, I just updated it..

But so far, it is flying! I have not tried anything so buttery smooth like this ROM!

Antutu score of 3006 @ 1113MHz (ondemand, noop) and 2895 @ 1024MHz.. all without SD card test and user apps installed..

I really like this ROM, was a satisfied BlindICE user, but I find this much stable.. The only thing that I can add a suggestion is to include a 2G/3G toggle in the notification bar, as that is the only thing that i miss from BlindICE :D

And I'm not sure whether it is a Sweep2Wake bug, but there is this random camera launch when i use the s2w.. It is at random, I can't replicate all the time, but about 4 out of 10 times I unlock my device, it goes straight to the camera app.. and if i unlock to the message with the ICS lockring, the camera will show up after i close my messaging app..

It's not really annoying and i can live with it most of the time.. but it's kinda embarrassing if you unlock your device and there is a pretty girl in front of you and the people behind you think that you want to snap a picture of that girl (especially worse if the phone is facing down :eek:).. anyone else face this?

It happens to me when i was still using BlindICE, and also when i tried the CM9.. So i think it's more like a kernel than ROM bug..

I am no developer and I apologise in advance if I sound ungrateful, I just want to share my experience with the ROM.. :) Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Thats a strange problem and 1st time someone reporting this...I can't fathom what can cause this...swiping to lock might cause a particular app to start if you don't swipe properly or completely...

but camera thing strange...
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Have you flashed with full wipe or over your previous ROM with just cache/dalvik wipe? Never had your issue with camera on any ICS ROM. What lockscreen type you're using? Have you changed the default targets?

The 2G/3G toggle is something that can be added by a dev... It'll be in only if Lord will include it in the original ROM. You can try pushing ROMControl.apk from BlindIce to system/app of this ROM and see if it works, but you might break something else.

If you feel in the mood for testing, try one of Vampire's or my previous ports (8.1.1 for ex) and check for that camera thingie... Best luck, since this is indeed the fastest ICS on Desire S

[HTC Desire S] bayusuputra:
Yeah, I understand that if I don't swipe properly, it may open up another application, usually search or launcher settings or home panel, but this happens when I unlock the phone.. I'm quite puzzled as I have not found any reference to this here.. Maybe it is my hardware issue?e0D

I did a full wipe, both this and blindICE, and even the paranoidandroid..

so this is what I did:

- from BlindICE, I went to recovery (4EXT)

- format all partition except SD card

- then I flashed the LibWipe.zip (since some say that 4EXT did not really format all the lib partition)

- flash the IceColdSandwich ROM

- power off (I don't usually reboot from recovery after flashing a ROM)

- boot up

So far today I have only experienced that twice today after I flashed 8.2.1 but I got that quite often in BlindICE, CM9 and 8.1/8.2..

Here's what I'm gonna do for the next couple of days, I'm gonna flash back my NAND backup of the 8.2 build, and then flash the 8.2.1 over it to see if not wiping might cause the issue.. I'm gonna need at least a day to test this out.. And then I'm gonna do a clean install of 8.2.1 and do the same test.. hopefully there will be a newer build once I am done with the test (maybe I will need about 4 days)..

I just hope that this has nothing to do with my hardware or the kernel, but more of unlucky thing for me..

Btw, I just had a random reboot as I am typing this.. I hung up a call and the phone rebooted.. but there was a slight delay of around 3-5 seconds from the moment I hung up and it rebooted..

Yes, this thing is wickedly fast! I can't wait for HTC to release the source code.. This thing will be amazing! I can then wait for another year before I change my phone!

edit: Btw, I used the ICS 4-target lock ring with pattern, with the first one being unlock, phone, sms, and camera.. So unlock and camera are on the opposite side of each other, and thus unlikely for me to slide the ring onto the other side.. :p

And this has never happened if I use the power button to wake the phone up..

GPS isn't working!

He won't start!

I use the latest version of this ROM with the Radio of Virtuous Saga (I already test with my old radio)

On Virtuous Saga my GPS working fine!

Arf, i think it's not a fix problem

The Gps icon in the notification bar doesn't appear

I already try "GPS Status" from the market.

But i go to flash GPS FIX

Thanks for trying to Help me
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
thought i'd try ice cold for the first time in ages, impressive rom, but i do have a bug i think:

when using a "pattern" unlock, when trying to unlock screen, the screen doesnt respond to touch, leaving only option to restart phone via vol up/down and pwr - temp fix to use pin unlock instead

and also, when typing sms, the send button glitches, still works but it invert color glitches

ignoring all that, lovely rom! thanks
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
try it 1st sir, it worked like a charm(as always). yes there wasn't any symbol, after i did the fix they symbol came up. always try before discrediting.
[HTC Desire S] arnaudbond007:
Thanks a lot !
[HTC Desire S] Asddsads98:
Occasionally, the touch input becomes unresponsive. And I can't unlock my phone. Anyone has the same issues?
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
If you're using a ROM version that has the swipe2wake kernel, yes it is known.
[HTC Desire S] skim0322:
Is there a latest version without the swipe2unlock?
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
Switching from 3g to 2g works fine, but switching to 3g is no more possible, only restart helps.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
No, as far as I know, but you can replace the boot.img with one from older ROMs or with one from my test builds. I didn't use swipe2wake kernels in my ports

Later edit:Ok guys, IceColdSandwich 8.3 test 3 is on-line for you

8.3.AOKP-test3 - 05-07-2012

- updated FileManager finally

- added Apollo music player from Cyanogen, it replaces Music by default

- updated Nova (some great features lookingat change log) and Apex

- updated Messaging app a LOT

- reverted skia, webkit, v8 and chromium from test1 to older version - I hope that this fixes non-stock DPI FCs

- updates from AOKP regarding ROMControl and frameworks_base bugfixes

- Email: Add option to allow the download/upload of "potentially" insecure attachment - CM

- who knows what else.. multiple ROMs keep my head spinning

On top of original changelog:

- default 220 DPI set in build.prop (change it to desired value or stock 240 in Settings-ROM Control-General UI-LCD Density)

- moded Market included for use with non standard DPI

- aGPS patch included

- video fix included, everything works: camera, panorama, camcorder (both on 720 and 480), skype videocalls (best quality till now)

- darkened apps from johnblundon's awesome theme BlackenedFrost UI. Highly recommended to flash also the UI part of the theme found in the original thread. (many thanks john for this) NOTE: Due to Lord's changelog where is stated that Messaging app was changed, the MMS.apk was not replaced with the one from the theme, for you to explore the changes. You can always flash the full darkened package from the link above.

- ADB notification hidden from status bar by default (to enable, edit the line under "For USB mount" section in build prop and change persist.adb.notify=0 to 1)

- included init.d start-up tweaks from AOKP

anyone tried this yet? I have been bitten by the pure ICS look and no matter how many times I go to sense 3.5 or anything else I keep returning.

download failed (unknown nw error) two times, trying the third time now.
[HTC Desire S] meinnameisthase:
Yep, works great here! And the additional theme mentioned by Rapier is awesome!
[HTC Desire S] Rataplan626:
I tried using the boot.img from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27881090&postcount=1836 but it stucks on HTC logo, just as the kernel Vampire supplied (and he removed it from OP for this reason). I'll wait for someone to provide a working non-swipe kernel :)

About 8.3, great work once again! I really don't like the darkened apps though; I think it's just a matter of personal taste. Is it possible to get it without darkened apps somehow?
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Kernel thing will provide a fix today night or tom morning...:)

About the darkened apps don't know might need to provide a flashable zip of reverting back the blackening :)
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Ok, from now I'll provide the standard ones in the ROM and who wants may flash Blackened UI theme on top. I was too tired in the morning to make 2 versions that's why I've uploaded this one.

Anyone can download original ROM and replace the entire system/app folder from my port with the ones from original. Just keep in mind NOT to replace phonesky.apk as this is the moded market. If you do so, it won't work with non standard DPI

Looks like Beautilful Widgets, a very skinnable and customizable tool. Don't know what skin they used there though, but I recognize the weather icons.
[HTC Desire S] Grizzly6117:
I would love to test this as it IcecoldSandwich and my favourite ROM. However ive decided to stay away from any other ICS Rom except MIUI.us as its seems much more stable with me. no FC, Freezes nothing after 3 days use. Most heavy games work with it aswell. cant play a game on any of the latest ICS Roms. Ill Def come back to To this sexy rom once the Kernel 3.0 Source is released and most of the irritating problems are gone.

I hope HTC can release the Kernel Sourse soon. Shouldnt take this long, Android and mainly the Carriers need to sort them selves out with update if they want to Dominate the Phone and tablet Market. Android is an amazing OS just the Wait on Updates etc is what is holding them back

simi clock? Or make your clock widget?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Yamuu:
I bought a new phone for my girlfriend on 01/21/12. (via telephone order)

-- and I transferred her number from Verizon.

I was told my plan will switch to a family plan effective on the day the phone is activated. I was even told exactly how much my next bill will be

if

the phone is activated on the day I receive it (estimated delivery date).

The phone was delivered on 01/23/12.

After activating it and calling them; they told me they were unable to transfer the number and that I'd have to call Verizon.

Well.. it was not until 01/29/12 that they finally transferred the number (after spending hours on the phone with Verizon/ Sprint)..

At one point (01/27/12) Sprint transferred me to a rep. in the specific department that deals with these things directly// whom told me there was no issues on their end and that it had to be something with Verizon. Frustrated, I had her wait on hold as I called Verizon, was transferred to Verizon's same department, and eventually made it a conference call between the three of us.

Anyways, I was checking out my new bill today and through the gigantic mess they throw at you in the monthly statement.. I figured out that they instead switched my plan for the entire month of January- therefore:

I was refunded the entire cost of my old plan for January.

I was billed for the new plan for the entire month of January.

Therefore, my bill was $30 more than it was supposed to be.

Just a reminder- make sure you look through all of your bills and do the math yourself!

AT&T tried to pull the same kind of thing with me last year when I switched over to Sprint.

Also-- I can confirm that Sprint has changed their discounts and they now only apply to the first line on your plan.

I asked a rep. about this and he replied "No, it is applied to the entire plan." but then said that each additional line is added in after (basically trying to confuse me with words).

new billing sucks. my bill jumped like 30 bucks =( and thats with 20% discount
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mkzbdroid:
yea because I work for sprint and deal with this billing issue DAILY, ill be happy to do the math for you since your so glad to exaggerate the billing change

129.99X.2 =25.998, fair assessment 26 bucks

new setup

110X.2 = 22. bucks, so lets pull that 400% exaggeration out of your statement please, no ones bill is impacted more that 6 bucks do the math, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] allroy1975:
That's what sprint told me too. My bill is only going up 4 dollars a month....sure that seems OK. Would they mind if the amount I paid went down by "only 4 dollars"? I have a feeling they would. F them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mkzbdroid:
I agree it sucks, but would you rather have sprint go out of business and be forced to choose from att and Verizon, me personally I would rather pay 4 bucks more and get network improvements and unlimited data

Don't take your frustration of hundreds of people annoying you with billing changes on me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stretchwookie:
whoa! that was a stipulation of your contract!? then you, my friend, are 100% free and clear to leave sprint with NO Early Termination Fees, as Sprint has violated one of your mutual agreements. :rolleyes:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] randomrobbi:
Yep. I had 3 lines and a 27 percent discount. My bill was going yo jump by 5 bucks or so. They let me out of the contracts on two lines and waived the ETFs on those two lines. Even offered me 100 bucks when I called inquiring about cancelling the remaining line for my speed issues placing my town. I am beyond happy with Sprint for this. It took one phone call...I got a nice person in Acct Services who knew the policy and procedure. It was all smooth and painless and now my mom and brothers lines are on T-Mobile and I go back to an ultra cheap single plan.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
Yea.. if you make any type of change like a price plan change, cancel/restore lines, suspensions, anything mid cycle it will automatically cause pro ration or partial charges and credits on your bill. Which to be expected, the bill will be higher.. also your charged a month in advance.. its confusing but when you do the math if done correctly you will understand.. and the discount is only on the original monthly service cost for The plan alone.. not any extra added on like insurance or extra lines.. only the price of your plan

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] punwik:
I agree buddy. F*** sprint!!! They are really starting to nickle and dime the **** out of us. It seems like each month now sprint is trying to add a few bux here and a few there for some stupid excuse. They may be unlimited at the moment but I honestly believe they will be just like the other carriers in the next six months. How dare Anyone try to justify sprints actions latley. I signed with sprint November 2010 & I think my bill should not ever have been a penny more until they wanting me to sign that dotted line again...
