[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
Only time will tell. Woodside is an old ad salesman, not a tech person, so I'm not sure that's a good sign at all. Andy Rubin still says that the Android team will not be managing Motorola's Android development at all, and I'm not sure that's a good sign for a relaxed bootloader policy, either.
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
Actually he's more to a lawman than to an ad salesman. He was ahead of all the merge actions that were necessary for Google to buy Motorola

Let's see what happens... He is still a Google employee, maybe he'll take some of its culture to Motorola... And hopefully be more dev friendly

I hope a screen shot says a thousand words?

I followed the mods in this thread for centre time and date, and it has caused my notifications to shift across also.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19760562&postcount=3

If I have a few notifications here they actually display all through my time and mix. It looks terrible. I can't show it here, but you can see that they are getting close in the screen shot. I want todrag them back to where the arrow is pointing? :confused:

Is there anyway of keeping centred date and time, but making notifications display in the standard position? :(

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnarf:
I've been wondering ..

I've got ICS on my transformer and i've got root .. I saw some video of benchmarks for the transformer with HC and then with ICS .. and ICS was getting alot better score (35-40% or some).

I know some people where overclocking with HC and some custom kernels, but i doubt there is yet a custom kernel for the ICS..

But is anyone here that had overclocked Transformer with HC, that can tell me how much diffrence OC'ing made ? 10%? 20%? none at all ?

Also was is stable ?

I would like to go to maybe 1.2ghz.. 1.3ghz even .. But im not sure if it is worth the trouble.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitchenfork:
I had my TF overclocked to 1.5ghz 24/7 (using Interactive Governor) on Krakd Rom and it was extremely stable, never rebooted or froze and I can say it made a pretty big difference in speed/responsiveness. I would say around 30% increase IMO.

It varies between tablets though so you may find your tablet is unable to OC at 1.5 ghz and remain stable.

The browser in HC @ 1.5ghz was faster for me than it is now on ICS stock clock (Revolution HD) so I can't wait for an OC kernel to be released for ICS to hopefully get the browser running a bit quicker.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mace242:
Alost exactly the same for me except i seem to find the browser in ICS only a tiny bit faster and then only on some sites and then only whilst doing the initial render. After that render I find ICS to be much faster, even than OC HC.

I'm sticking with stock unrooted ICS for now and won't be doing anything different until somebody creates an OC kernel for it.

Hi guys. I just got a eloxity a7. the reason I chose it was for the tegra 2 chip. I really wanted dual core and something with nice graphic abilities because I love games. I have a color nook rooted. it's nice but it is slow and get bogged down very easily. the A7 is fast. actually much faster and more responsive. the screen has better contrast and is clearer. so when I loaded up "guerrilla bob" I was excited until I realized I couldn't move and shoot at the same time?!? seriously? on a tab this advanced with this kind of graphic power and raw speed there is no 2 point touch????? how can you design a tab which seems geared toward games and then cripple it???? I'm not looking for 10 points of touch here, just 2 dammit. I am in total shock. the color nook is multitouch and it's really a book reader!! and it's retail was less also. now I see on elocity's website there is an a7+ which has the missing multitouch. what?? the a7 was advertised as multitouch so I don't think adding a new model with the features that were advertised on the previous one is a great business move. how about a free upgrade or SOME kind of trade in program? How has this not put them out of business? On their site it says in the FAQ section that you can use emulators like SNES and move and shoot at the same time, but you can't how are they getting away with this? is anyone else as upset about this as I am?

Is the official leaked ICS ROM better then Thors current ICS ROM? Because I am running Thor's currently, and was wondering if its worth to update to the official leaked ICS ROM. I don't care much about features and stuff, all I need is something that functions good, and how its supposed to run.
[Acer Iconia A500] moore808:
I'm running FLEXREAPER and its been amazing so far. I also came from running Thor's rom, but I'm extremely happy with what civato has accomplished so far.
[Acer Iconia A500] diiorio:
Depends on which of the brocken versions you want to use. None have full function. Some are more buggy then others. None use proper resolution, nor the new Tegra 2 optimizations, nor the addtional HDMI fuctions.

Probably best to wait for the upcoming offcial build, which will include all the optimizaitions, resoultion changes, dual layer dashboard, Acer wheel, then root it and go from there.
[Acer Iconia A500] jm77:
It depends on your level of technical ability.

I would recommend:

Reading through the links below

Install RA via Acer Recovery Installer (use custom image option)

Flash Stock, then flash CWM version via RA Recovery (all in one step, losing recovery)

Install unlocked bootloader+custom recovery

Advantages:

Keep root

Unlock bootloader

Keep recovery

Remount /system rw (requires terminal app)

Remove bloat manually

Camera works

No sleep of death

Basically stock

I'm really pleased with my A500 right now, so this is what I'm running.
[Acer Iconia A500] Psichi:

Is it necessary to be that aggressive to someone who is clearly an end-user? Why not state that "all of the roms released here benefited from an open collaborative environment from developers. This is why things like the GPL are important, because everyone can benefit by sharing knowledge that results in a quick resolution to issues that arise."

There is no need to attack people like a zealot

Flexreaper R4 is running well for me. No complaints. Seems just as functional as Honeycomb to me since full root and /system write permissions.
[Acer Iconia A500] haag498:
ATM the ROMs based on the Acer leak are by far the best, as they have practically everything working (contraty to what some other poster thinks). There are some small omissions (like face unlock) and probably a few bugs that didn't yet show up, but other than that they are surprisingly fast and stable (I'm using FLEXREAPER R4, too).

As to violating GPL... well, in the end probably both do, but in thors case it's a good bit worse as he has a choice while vache (and those building on his leak) haven't.
[Acer Iconia A500] dman918:
Came from Thor's as well. I then went to Lightspeed, which ran well but is really stripped down. If you want a pretty bare-bones ROM, this is good for that. I am now on Taboonay, which has seemed every bit as fast and smooth, yet also includes wallpapers, extra widgets, etc. I haven't tried Flexreaper so I can't speak of that one. Both I have tried were smoother than Thor's IMO.

Another extremely helpful post!

Other than Face unlock and the Acer ring, the leak is a full version. (vache has the Acer ring in his Rom. Not sure if they have face unlock working yet.)

My advice to anyone who is curious, do a backup and try it for yourself. If you don't like it restore your backup.
[Acer Iconia A500] Sylense:

[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
If you want extra Acer system apps , go here and pick the "You want the extra Acer system apps" , you can use them on all the ICS roms that are based on the Leaked rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Try them and USE YOUR Own Judgement.is best .

THere is only one real piece of advice that can be giving to Op..

You do know how to flash a rom. You do know how to read a thread.. My best Sis to read the User post in each rom Thread. (Something i have done). Then make a Decision based on your Opinion of what you have read. And flash the rom that best suits you. If you do not like that flash another. Just remeber to do a nand backup between each and you can try them all .Try them until you are satisfied with the rom you choose.

THE ANSWER IS There is no answer. Do Not Try to make it a Competition between the roms. They are all great.. ALL OF THE Development in the roms have been done by people taking time out of there life to make them available for all.. Respect that. Follow the flashing INstructions . be careful and have fun..

if you want the BEST User experience. With the least bugs. go back to 3.2.1 Fully stock..

thanks for listening to my two Pennies. oh well maybe 3 or 4..

Now im Going to take a Bath.

Yes it works, but I assume you have cwm recovery installed so if you don't want to loose cwm, don't flash Acer's stock update.zip. I suggest Lightspeed ICS over thors ics. At least it worked fine for me. Clear cache & dalvik before. Don't forget to backup just in case.

Taboonay 3.0.1 - Wifi didn't work, when click reflash in wifi setting... AP just show up for a second and then disappear... gave up afterwards...

FLEXREAPER R4 - I'm now play with it, so far so good. A bit laggy when playing some H.264 720p files, standby time seems normal and have no wifi problem.

+1 for Flexreaper R4, soon R5 with Acer ring.

Really easy installing via CWM, and big bugs are sorted out in hours.. sometimes I wonder how they manage it.

I installed the acer apps afterwards, works perfectly.
[Acer Iconia A500] dmfr:
Personally I am very happy with Lightspeed 4 (like I was with previous Lightspeeds based on HoneyComb).

Stripped to the minimum (no vendor apps, games, gadgets), very fast, bug free so far.

Anyway, the best ICS ROM depends on what you're expecting of a ROM :)
[Acer Iconia A500] diiorio:
Some may be offended becuase none of the current custom modified ICS roms are stable, sure they run. Stable, no. Built off the leak, yes, much more stable, but they are basically tweaking.

The most stable build will come after acers offcial release, or when the A200 release is modified, which isn't to hard (minus hardware feature differences, but combing some apk's can fix that).

It's after people take the officials, and debloat them, and tweak further that you get the best roms. If you use thors, then see the last shown offcial build (not the leak) you know how much they changed it on acers side). As well as performance differences, device support, and other featues.

In cases such as phones, and issues with those such as the droid charge, taking the official, moding them, proved worth while, but previous customs not buidl of offcial versions simply always come short. Be nice if Acer would release the source code like Samsung has.

The leak also has 3 known bugs that Acer addressed. Even after the A200 ICS OTA, there was already a upadate.
[Acer Iconia A500] murben:
I've been running Flexreaper since his first release and it's awesome. Seems to be smoother than Thor's. I've run into a few FC's on some apps but nothing major. I also just saw civato post that when he puts up R5 tonight or tomorrow, the Acer Ring will be working as well as Face Unlock!

All of the Dev's involved with this are cranking out some awesome work in a short time and deserve major kudos!
[Acer Iconia A500] dman918:
Geez, now I'm thinking I may need to give Flexreaper a try. What I like about Taboonay is that it is flashy. I like the extra widgets/wallpapers/etc. However, I'm finding I've had some wifi connection issues. Just ran the wifi patch on the page, so we'll see if that addresses the issue.

Those with Flexreaper, how does it compare to other ROMs? Is it known to be stripped like Lightspeed or more complete like Taboonay? I know I can add most all apps and such with the extra zips. Just wondering about any additional perks.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Just a comparison between all of the leaked rom's In the dev section.

They all are very smooth and without Force Close issues. IF you install them correctly and apply the updates from there Dev. They all have one thing in common .The browser's. I have tried two browsers Stock browser and Chrome. Both setting untouched.First in chrome. I get some artifacts on text while scrolling large documents .Its like text overlaying on top itself ,Then it will often go black.This happens only with two or more tabs open.With the stock browser i get screen tearing and it has a general shaky feel to it while scrolling and text is often trying to stay focused.

My opinion is that they are not Optimized for Hardware acceleration. I do not feel its the Android system lagging .The wifi for me works great on any of the rom,s i have tried.

The key again is READ THE OP THREAD Very carefully for each rom and follow the instructions exact. do not do any extra steps and do not miss any steps.

And remember these are from a LEAK. that is known to be a not complete Build. Thanks EVERYONE FOR The hard and AWESOME FAST WORK ON these Roms. Every day on XDA IS THANK A DEVELOPER/MODER DAY
[Acer Iconia A500] murben:
I haven't actually tried any of the other ROMS yet, been happy enough with Flexreaper that I haven't had a reason to try the others. The base package is mostly stripped, but there is an addon .zip that loads the acer apps and others.
[Acer Iconia A500] 1rkrage:
is there an leaked ICS rom that allows for more than 1ghz clocks?

It was so easy to that on Thor's ICS, and so far with FlexReaper and Taboonay i'm only limited to 1 GHz.

I must say though, i find Taboonay to be smoother than Flex Reaper so far. Responsive commands so far.
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
That is kernel dependent. As long as you're on stock kernel you cannot do that.
[Acer Iconia A500] peterchannewyork:
Icylicious

Tried all different ICS A500 roms, came from Thor v96 which was really good to begin with. But all the new roms are just as good (now with camera!)

i personally prefer Icylicious but they are all equally great and some have more features than others. I prefer the stockish bare versions more, just personal preference. Flexreaper is amazing, lots of features and has the Acer Ring (and its updated regularly).

It's actually pretty amazing there's choice of ICS rom with camera working. All of them are good, basically.
[Acer Iconia A500] querobolo:

My 2cents. Flexreader from Civato, very smooth ROM with good battery life and nice crisp graphics. Also Civato is quick to respond to reasonable user requests for features. I ran R4 and am now on R5 and will flash R6 as soon as it is available.
[Acer Iconia A500] blancocar:
Over the last few days I have tried most of the ICS roms that have been posted. I installed and tried out Thor's v96, Protekk's AOKP, Lightspeed Beta 3, 4, 5, 6, Taboonay 3.01, Flexreaper-R5 and Icylicious.

All of them are very good and are a nice improvement over the HC 3.2 ROMs. I like and dislike different things about each of them. You really have to try each and see what you like. Personally, my favorite was Lightspeed, then Flexreaper and then Icylicious. Chances are that your favorites will be different.

Since I was bored and curious, I went back and read through enough forum articles to figure out how to resign apk's and repackage roms. Once I understood the process, I extracted the contents of the stock leak and my three favorites. I compared them against each other using Winmerge. Each author takes a slightly different approach. Based on the differences, I pulled what I liked best from each. I then added my favorite apps, wallpapers, icons, etc. I repackaged everything and put it back on my tablet. What I ended up with was mostly a combination of Flexreaper and Lightspeed. So far so good. I don't recommend you try this unless you have time to waste and aren't worried about ruining your tablet. :)
