I loved all ICS custom roms I tested (all of them, I think)... but they are really poor in one aspect: the battery life. It's awful... 50% in 3 hours or less with average use. Is there any solution for that? Which one do you guys use? Thanks

I'm using IceLite by zdzihu on my LT15 and my battery performance is great.

I think that some baseband's are better than others for battery, also, I've added this to my build.prop file:

There's a bug in ICS beta that drains batttery with wifi off, though it doesn't seem to be present in Z's icelite.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
It's in all of them, but it's intermittent.

Some days things would be great, then all of a sudden it would start draining the battery like crazy.

Some people never suffer it, but that does not mean the bug is not there, just that they aren't doing whatever is needed to trigger it.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wayne850:
I'm using Z's ICElite and i have the best battery life i ever had. it's even better than on gb arconium. I'm loosing about 1% per hour on idle. Ok the first time i flashed icelite my whole battery was dead in 7 hours and android os drains 80%(!!!) After two times of complete charging my phone android os drains only 18% and I think this will get even better after charging a few more times
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulinodf:
So it seems that Icelite is the the best one for some time... I don't really like that rom's style, but i'll give it a try. I believe that when the official ICS is released, they'll fix this, and also will fix the weak wi-fi bug

I'm personally taking android only with "froyo, eclair, gingerbread, ics" like my phone Engine. All other is changeable.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulkanisatie:
Same here. I'm using IceLite on my LT15 and the battery performance was great at first, but drains an average 5% per hour on flightmode. (I use flightmode at night, because I need the alarm clock)

ICS Beta ROM in Xperia ARC S

I have installed the ICS Beta ROM in Xperia ARC S.

Why does empty the battery so fast? background process limit cannot be set, it remains at all times the standard limit.

:(
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rashid.fairus:
stop nagging about it because it is beta for a test,not for daily rom,wait for a stable release by se,maybe all the issues gone

from the ARC
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boudin:
The only battery drain is linked to the wifi module.

The only solution I found is not using wifi. If I have to use wifi, I reboot the phone after I disable it.

There's no wifi driver in official beta. This driver is not even a beta one and has not been validated by Sony.

There is no battery drain in ICS 4.0.3 either (unlike some says).

Currently, my battery last between 4 and 5 days without data activated (just a few calls and sms). It lasts 2.5 days with moderate data usage (an average of 15 hours with data and sync activated).

the point is to keep everything together like music and books instead of having Google Music seperately and Google E-Books seperately. It's for ease of use. But i have to say the name just doesn't work. I'm sure i'll get used to it.

To OP: I know it updates automatically, but a link may be helpful for some:

it is 5 times faster than the older version for me it is perfect :))
[HTC Desire S] Isovitisgr:
Yes that's true! The speed of Google Play is impressive comparing the old Market's speed! And only that is enough for me to be happy with this update!

The only good thing about switching to Play thing is that I can now see viz and pics in market, as they used another pool of IPs, which has not yet been blocked in my "democratic" country. ^^

i have a question, i recently reinstalled my ROM and i have the old market again

i was wondering hot to get it back? it updates automatically or manual?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyykw:
Hi guys!!

I bought samsung galaxy Gt I9100 from India and now im in usa. I got a prepaid tmobile card from usa with unlimited text , web and talk. when i switch mobile internet it shows as 2 arrows on top . I ve selected the network mode to automatic. Now i dont know how to switch on 3g and what signs it shows on the phone?/

KINDLY HELP GUYS.. :):)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
GT-I9100 will NEVER get better than an Edge connection (shown as an "E" by your signal indicator) on T-Mobile USA's network, because it doesn't have the hardware to receive the right frequencies to do so. To get 3g or faster speeds (shown as "3G", "H", or "H+" by your signal indicator) in the US, you will need to be on AT&T's network, or another carrier that uses the same frequencies.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cucumbersmell:
I've themed the heck out of Gingerbread ROMs and have figured out a lot about theming Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs, but I still need a bit of help, please.

I have searched and googled. Can someone tell me what file in the framework-res.apk is responsible for background colors within settings, power menu, etc?

Basically I'd like to change grey to black as in the example below:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cucumbersmell:
Continued searching brings up guides on how to theme GB to look like ICS. Perhaps it's the same files for both GB and ICS?

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] TRusselo:
its basically the same, but some names changed as ICS has the standard " holo theme ".

to decompile and re-compile without error you must update the AAPT.exe file used by your akp editor.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MSigler:
I'm not really sure what you're asking.

In order for ADB to work, just turn on debugging in settings > Applications > Development.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MSigler:
You need to put it in download mode and flash a stock rom via ODIN. Check the development section for the "Stock rom in case of brick" thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chak29:

This will trip flash counter, if u are still completely stock just rooted, don't do this method.

Get USB drivers and install from here:

Reboot computer

Enable USB debugging under settings on phone

Download adb from this post:

Its actually superuseroneclick, but when u unzip adb is inside

Connect USB cable to computer and one drivers are installed, open command prompt

Navigate to folder where u unzipped adb and run "adb shell"

Then type "rm /system/app/Superuser.apk"

Exit command prompt and reboot phone, successfully unrooted

No. You have to flash SELFKANG3. HFS doesn't have configurable data limits. Try flashing Fauxs latest ICS BETA kernel. It may add the limits.

ok i just got my droid 3 and am now running cm9 on it and i loved the stock pic app it came with and when i installed cm9 on it it does not have it any more and i just wont the one app back so does any one have the .apk of it and thinks

and the music app to but i dont wont it as bad as i do the pic app because the pic app that came with the droid 3 is a lot better then the one that comes with cm9
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Quickpic

if thats what you mean with pic app
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
i am running stock right now i whent back because i need to right now but will go back to cm9 soon if i get it worked out
[Motorola Droid 3] PM_mobile:
Hi,

If you just want the apk and are still on stock, try using Titanium Backup to backup it or use a File Manager to get to the apk and copy it to the sdcard.

Look in /system/app/ for something called Blur.Gallery.apk for Moto's pic app and CMP...something for Moto's Music player. (CMP=Connected Music Player)

I'm doubtful these would even work under ICS.. so maybe try other apps..

Like DoubleYouPee said, QuickPic is pretty good.

For music, try CM9's player (I think the Droid3 ROM comes with Google's ICS music player by default..) : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1450354
[Motorola Droid 3] PM_mobile:
Ok, So I just opened a nandroid of my last stock and here are the files I have..

I haven't tested anything so use at your own risk and backup your stuff.

Also take a look at TuneIn if you're interested in local FM broadcasts over WiFi/3G, I use it a lot lately..
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
ok i tested the apps and they will not install at all i think i may use a back up of stock and ics and do some adding and removieing and see what i can get done i hope i can get it to work out if so i may post the working backup if it starts working like i need it too

Nootlet is apparently not compatible with the Edmodo app as far as the market is concerned.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
You would probably have to change your build.prop to spoof something else if it doesn't work. Check other threads on the specifics. Also, search the thread on how to install any app on the market.

*edit* Try going into your manage applications area and clearing data and cache from your market. I searched the app on the website market and it shows my NT as being compatible with it. (I am running cm7 also, so that might be why)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cellhead:
Tried your suggestion, no luck but thanks for the ideas. Stock bootleg rooted. Will investigate the build.prop spoof unless someone offers to slip me the .apk in the meantime.

ok so my (edit) *Vibrant is not booting up...

I press the power button, the vibrant turns on, logo pops up, boot animation, Tmobile animation and galaxy s animation plus sound all happened, The phone gets to the lock screen and within 3 seconds just shuts down.

Anyone know what could be wrong.

Phone is stock, neither romed or rooted. is this a battery issue, hardware or software
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
Does it boot up when you have it charging? And which phone is it, the Vibrant or the Captivate? Those are 2 different phones.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kontagious:
sorry simple mistake, it is a tmobile vibrant...

it boots up when plugged in and when not plugged in... gets to the lock screen and it just waits and then shuts down completely.

can boot into

stock recovery

download mode
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
If you can boot into stock recovery/download mode, just do a factory reset or flash the stock rom using odin
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kontagious:
I tried the factory reset and it says cannot read update.zip

i tried the odin stock rom flash and same problem persists.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
Maybe you have a defective bootloader or phone. If it's still under warranty, just bring it back to T-Mobile and exchange it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonen:
was trying to fix a vibrant for a friend of mine with a very similar problem

after many hours of work w/ odin & attempting to flash different things.. i concluded that it was hardware related bc i made it all the way to stock but it would just shut down randomly

does it give any sort of message when it shuts off? or just goes black?

have you dropped it a lot? :p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kontagious:
im starting to think its hardware related as well. at time when i boot into stock recovery the battery logo just shows up, the android man with the the exclamation point. idk if up to a certain level of currect is drained the battery shorts out. how can i possibly test the battery??

There is no message or anything... as soon as it boots up to the lock screen it just goes black.

i just acquired this phone. I have a HTC Glacier that i use for my everyday. this used to be my friends old phone and it started doing this, he just got another one and gave me this said if i could fix it i could have it to mess around with. as far as i know it hasnt experienced much rough and tough life. on the outside it looks almost brand new.

This build of CM10 will only keep up with what is actually merged into the code for CM10. Primarily this was made because of how infrequent the building goes with the official nightlies, but now i continue on regardless of anything...

​

as per usual:

I am not responsible if you brick your phone, for any bugs in the rom,
or if your cat decides to eat your phone because its now full of awesome.

This build is very much identical with the official build, u can switch from official and my build without any fear of having to wipe your phone.. the only difference is that i have the build script change the cyanogenmod version to more reflect like a nightly

I'll start build in the evenings, probably take a little bit depending on how much is new and the real wait is me actually uploading it.. (I have terrible upload speeds!)

Known Issues

:

None

Instructions

:

Download rom

Go to recovery

Wipe rom if coming from another rom, u dont have to wipe if ur coming from official nightly

Flash rom

Flash gapps, this u dont have to do every time just when u first come to the rom (the rom backs up gapps)

Boot into rom

???

Profit!

the torrent file only contains the rom, it uses a webseed, code.google.com. u can use this if u ever have to pause to download or such.. u dont have to seed, i dont mind.. but others might like u to

no, cyanogenmod himself took it out because of how buggy it is.. and believe me when i say it was rather buggy.... x.x if i remember correctly he said he will reimplement it as soon as facebook gets theyre app working properly.. cant seem to find where i read this, so take that with a grain of salt..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swordrune10:
i am now committing the way the maintainer does it, as he has solved the my verizon app issue, it just doesnt work to well on wifi.. im now using koush's proprietary toro repo

also to note, after he solved this he made a new official nightly.. i wouldn't be to upset if u grabbed it, but its exactly how mine is currently.. my build tonight should be almost identical to this but with whatever has merged since then, if anything
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chadwick359:
I do mean in the Nav bar, apologies for being unclear.

I just came from an outdated kang from Winner, and the option was in the old Cyanogen Settings app. I see that most of the options had been merged in to the main settings application.

This build seems very nice, but I may have to roll back/try out AOKP, because I have a hard time operating without the search key.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swordrune10:
i understand, mainly on the fact that i love my keys in reverse (recent apps, home, back) and i do miss this feature.. as were u, i came from winner00's rom too, i changed from that to the official nightly because id rather stay in line with whats being merged, not things that could be merged but isn't.. i am really excited for this feature and i really cant wait...
