Started to get reboots with 1.8.X, reverted to 1.7.X for the night.

Joined your group on Palringo. Let me know when you have a new version to test...

Thx!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] KLLSWITCH:
also joined the group
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
What exactly changed in the latest version?

Sent from the Almighty Note! ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willanhanyard:
Awesome theme, works great on stock launcher, but ADW EX gives me HUGE lag.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
see the OP

That has nothing to do with my theme
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Hmm running fine here all night.I'll get a version without the animations for you guys to test

EDIT: Anyone having rebooting issues hit me up in my room on palringo: smittystesters

Edit:2 I'm 99% sure this isn't due to the animations, as 7.3 would not overwrite them, so you should still have the ics ones

I have a test version for you guys
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] samtruongg:
the font color change that you made in your last update is back to black with the new update..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tungsifu:
I went back to 7.2 after a few reboots (rebooted when trying to open games) still kept all animations and everything works grrrreat!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lsxrx7:
why i flashed 1.83 and nothing happened ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
This proves my theory. It's not in the animations but in the framework. I'm taking 1.8.3 down for now. Will look at it tonight. If someone who was having reboot issues could hit me up in palringo that would be great, I have a test file
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
I don't understand....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
I did have some reboots after flashing last night but i think that was because I switched to smartass v2 :D. Once I went back to onDemand I have been using all day with no issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
1.8.3?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Yes. But I did go 1.8.2 -> 1.7.2 -> 1.8.3 when the status bar was centered.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
8.3 would have overrode the previous. Good to know it's working, like I said I've had no issues, so it's weird
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
So is 1.83 unstable? I had to reflash cause of reboot to lock screen? not sure if it was this. Theme causing it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
I've been using it with no issues att all. My theme doesn't touch the lockscreen though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Romee74:
Can someone point me to the revert for this theme?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
I am not saying it screwed up my lockscreen. I was in the xda app and tried to watch some HD videos. On YouTube and web browser then the phone would freeze and reboot back into the lockscreen. I have done a fresh install and its seems to be working great again. Have not applied your theme yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] GRishi:
Camera app in video mode seems to crash for me after installation of 1.8.3.

Anyone else with this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Donjuanal:
same here.

I was unable to launch a barcode scanner for activating my google authenticator on the phone. I was getting random reboots but didnt think it was the theme, so I wiped and reflashed the rom and then flashed the theme on and it still happened. I wiped again and reflashed the rom without this theme and I can launch the barcode scanner, camera, and no more random reboots.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] griffindodd:
1.8.3 is very unstable for me too. Weirdly is seems to be isolated to landscape mode.

- It seems to be fighting with Go Launcher EX in landscape mode coming out of lock, pressing any icon on the homescreen just refreshes the homescreen. I have to go to portrait and then back to landscape for the icons to respond properly

- Launching Car Dock Home v3 (That I have fixed in landscape mode) either manually or automatically with the OEM dock, crashes the application and performs a soft reboot causing a loop when plugged into the OEM dock as Car Dock Home is my default dock launcher.

- Crashes Go Locker in landscape mode, fine in portrait.

- Also noticed higher battery drain since installing 1.8.3

Thanks for the efforts but until this is much more stable I will need to revert with my Nandroid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Ah it is landscape mode. The camera works fine until you rotate it (sometimes). Barcode scanner fails because it switches to landscape mode. Also now verify the soft reboots after the phone exhibits this behavior.

Is it safe to go back to stock using the "revert to unthemed" link in the other thread?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
I have a stock revert in the OP...

Btw thestability in 8.3 is due to the update to support en-us language from the framework. Thats what's giving errors, I have fixed it and just doing some final testing now.

FYI 1.7 is totally stable
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Also to prevent the onslaught of this happening again, I'm looking for some testers. Now that we have a stable base for all carriers things will go much easier
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mortem Tuam:
smitty

check ur pm's
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lessthanzach:
Yeah interesting. YouTube in landscape, camera in landscape, etc.

Interesting that reverting back to 1.7 kept all the ice cream sandwich animations. Look forward to the next update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
you just discovered the number one downfall to vr theme.... It will only overwrite the files you tell it to. So there'sa lot that gets missed when going from one theme to another
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] balpreetsaini:
So tried v1.8.3 camera does not work at all, tried to revert to stock, camera then has no problem. Tried 1.7.2 after reverting to stock, works perfect, text in grey boxes is white as well which is much more readable, great job can't wait for it to be finished.

running saurom rc4, daG overclock kernal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
I have an update ready that will fix everything. Giving it one more day with the testers. Should be up tonight
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ee23hd2:
agreed. i havent had any reports of instability yet from my theme after the en-us att fix so it must be the vr system. anyways glad you got it back in order, looking foward to seeing more updates.

All of the errors are gone. Works flawlessly!

Many thanks to Chicokiri for the time he put into helping with this. Spam his thanks too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] u921333:
Awesome thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] a3plew:
Loving it! Just one question is the pull down menu suppose to be transparent or solid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tman23:
Thank you to everyone's hard work on this beautiful theme...it works flawlessly :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
its solid right now, will make it transparent again soon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] a3plew:
Thank you! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thetechman123:
Hi this theme is awesome :) but unfortunately after the update i get this instead of the transparant background in notifications
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
It's already been fixed...trying to add one more thing in before a release!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thetechman123:
Cool thank you and awesome theme btw :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lessthanzach:
Hmmm. Just installed the update coming back from transfuzion and I notice there aren't any ice cream sandwich animations now. Did you have to get rid of them?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Latest version is with the testers. Should be online tomorrow morning
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lessthanzach:
Will that version include the ice creamed animations by chance? I'm a concerned because I've gone back and forth between this and Transfuzion but can't get rid of transfuzions theme all the way. I'm curious if that is what is causing the lack of the animations or if they have just between removed.

By the way, this version has really been stable for me. No issues with camera, YouTube or anything else really..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willanhanyard:
So what did 2.0.3 fix?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] derrick_:
Doesn't eat your soul anymore :)

2.1.5 will be out in the morning with some goodies. (just a few).

I'll let smitty have the honors to post the changelogs since I'm just sitting here seeing if I can break anything :-)

He and chicokiri have done a good amount of work on it today :-) send them thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ee23hd2:
you should be good on the animations, even without my revert. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
See the changelog in the OP, but it fixed all of the stability issues, plus a few little updates
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
As far as I know these are the ics animations, in the new build. Curious, did you run any of my other builds, did they have the correct animations?

I don't remember what they all look like anymore
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ee23hd2:
ive searched quite a bit, trying different animations in my theme, but none of the "ics" anims looked near as cool as the ones in your theme. the ones i finally found like yours werent labeled as "ics" animations. But from what ive seen i wouldnt care what theyre called cuz they look awesome. i know i dont :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
http://bit.ly/FRhIYM

New version up...

Changes:

Themed volume bar

A few themed app icons

updated animations

Renamed from yaaics to IceCold
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Removed....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Ya animations are back! Looks great so far. Just curious, what made the size jump to 50+mb??

Need to go change my signature now. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
The themed app icons...needed to include the apps....

Might end up using vr theme for that eventually to bring the size down again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] parcsalooc:
Does this have the att lte icon in the status bar?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Thanks! I could have just looked in the files to see that, duh :D The new icons do look really great!

I would really love to help you test, but I just don't have much time these days. Just sent you a donation though as I really do appreciate the hard work you put into this theme.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
it does not. That is on my to do list...but maybe I'll farm it out :) lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] covsound1:
does this have the theme dailer thats all i am waiting for. thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thenuges:
IceCold Compatibility

Do you need to be running SAUROM to be able to use this them. Does it work with TPC v2 (which I am currently running).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
No themed dialer yet, that will be a little bit, but you could just use

One from another theme for now.

I highly doubt this will work with TPCv2 too many framework edits. You will have to come to SAUROM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
50mb for a theme?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Yep, there are themed app icons included
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] griffindodd:
Flashed ice cold this morning looking good so far none of the landscape crashes that I was seeing before. Will keep testing.

Loving the animations

How do I get the ics lock screen pictured in the op?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Ice cream sandwich theme from the market...

I have since switched to go launcher and use go locker, they have an ics lockscreen...

eventually will build this into the theme
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yzlvr:
Thanks for the info
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] songyop:
Nice theme!

Thanks for this great theme!

I have been using the Transfuzion theme with much satisfaction, except for one thing- too many Android robots everywhere! Some may like that as well, but I needed less playful looking theme for my business. I think your theme delivers that! So, I thank you much, sir!:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] covsound1:
didnt know i could use another Dailer. just pull the apk and reboot? thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
Great job with the theming man it looks great. I wish I had the patience to mod these files and make it flashable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
You got it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cyris69:
Just to clarify, I flash yaaics2.0.5 and IceCold2.1.5, then install the ADW ICS theme from market correct?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
No reason to flash the old yaaics. IceCold will overwrite it anyways.

Then you can install any ics theme from the market. However ice cold already has a few themed stock app icons included. See if you like them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cyris69:
Awesome thanks for the quick reply, I'll give it a go now :)

also the lock screen music control buttons are messed up. besides that its a great theme
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Are they normal on stock? Afaik I haven't changed anything to affect that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] urbanshadow:
Amazing theme! You should also modify the Bluetooth icon in the status bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
It should be themed when a device is connected? No?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Is for me, white when not connected, blue when connected.

yes they are normal on stock. here is what im getting with all versions of the theme

No what happened was that the theme displayed in correctly then when I reinstalled the theme and I set me back to RCIV :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vszulc:
Ive decided to get a new phone (Well, actually my HTC decided for me by having its touchscreen die) but I'm not entirely sure what to get.

(The part that sucks about this, is all the new quadcore phones and iPhone 5 coming soon/later this year)

The Galaxy Note was just too big, so I've narrowed it down to the Galaxy Nexus, Moto RAZR and iphone4S. How have you found the GN to be? Is there anything I should keep in mind?

The RAZR and the GN have pretty much the same GPU/CPU combo, but the GN has a better screen, right? Would you say that you can really see the difference in the GN screen compared to a QHD screen?

The thing that's holding me back from the GN is the camera. I've heard that its fast, but not very good (Esp. compared to the iPhones camera) and at 5MP the resolution is pretty small these days.

The RAZR is kinda tempting because of all the accessories (Lapdock etc,) the ultra thin design, 8MP camera (Thou ivebheard the quality is so-so) and being expandable up to 48 GB.

I'm trying to keep ICS out of the equation, since the RAZR will have it soon.

And then theres the iPhone. I've heard the camera is awesome on it, it has a GPU that still can't be beat by any Android phone, and Apple is really awesome with providing updates quick, and for a long time after they released a phone. The thing that really holds me back though, is the 3.5 inch screen. Yes, it's an awesome screen, and amazing PPI, but I'm not sure I could get used to a screen that small after having an SGSII and Evo3D for a while with a 4.3 inch screen.

So yeah, is there anything about the GN I should know about? What phone would you choose if you haven't chosen the GN? Fire away!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aneftp:
I own both Verizon Galaxy nexus LTE and AT&T iPhone 4s.

Your thoughts are right on. The iPhone 4s has the better camera by far. If you are a picture person get the iPhone. iPhone is still the slickest no lag phone on the market. Personally I still use it as my main phone.

The galaxy nexus is the smoothest android phone to date. I have own numerous android phones including the original G1. But battery life isnt the best on the Nexus.

Motorola phones are known for their antenna and call quality. If you are considering the Razr. Only consider the Razr Maxx. My friend original Droid Razr battery sucks also. I had a qHD Atrix and it's fine for a screen. But the Super AMOlED HD screen on the nexus is beautiful.

Though choices. U can't really go wrong. They are all good choices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stupidslow02gt:
If someone ever has to ask Android vs iOS then I always suggest iOS as that person clearly doesnt understand the massive advantages Android has over Apple.

Get an iPhone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KeithRVA:
With my gnex I use an app called Camera ZoomFx and the pictures are excellent. I had a 4S and I think its camera is overrated, especially when using the flash. There are reasons to choose the 4S over the gnex, but the camera isn't one of them imo. I think the current iphone is not even in the same league as the gnex (4g, nfc, super amoled hd 4.65" display, ics, free gps, etc). I think the next iphone will be more competitive, but for me its not even close. The gnex wins my $ easily.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nascasho:
I was in a similar situation RAZR or GNex. Coming from the Infuse, I guess it kinda made it extremely important to find a device with epic dev support because out of all the phone I've owned, the infuse would've been a killer single core phone right next to the SGII if it were more popular... imo.

Dev's on the GNex have more freedom, but I'll admit, only thing I hate about it is the Camera. It's the ONLY thing I hate. ****, if Samsung went out of their way to put the GSII's camera on it, world domination would be in order.

I went to the Infuse 4G from an iPhone 3GS. iOS is cool, but the iPhone turned into more of a fad "I R KEWL" device other than something for techies to fiddle with, even when it's jailbroken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayoubi:
in all honestly i had the biggest trouble picking between the samsung galaxy nexus and samsung galaxy II.

galaxy s2 has an sd card slot, 8mp camera, and its going to have ICS with all the cool features.

nexus only has NFC and a better screen, but then again not very good battery.

the rest of the phones i dont even care about, none of them interested me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stupidslow02gt:
The Nexus has a bigger battery than the s2. And can you please explain to me why an 8mp camera is better than a 5mp?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] number3pencil:
my ONLY gripes with this phone that may influence your decision are...

Size: The phone is big, not thick - but just long and big. You always know this phone is in your pocket, especially if you are sitting down. Its not a big dealt to me, but this is a very big difference between the Gnex and the 4s.

Battery: The battery life SUCKS. When you are using your phone (browsing the internet, taking pictures, playing games, etc), you can watch your battery go down the drain. One hour of web surfing will lose you a good 15-25% battery.

Camera: It sucks. But this is a feature I rarely use. The 4s photos are godly, no other phone that I know of can compete.

The screen is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I know that the 4s has a nice screen too, but the resolution + size of the screen make it really spectacular.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
The camera is fine on my GNex. Seriously the same exact picture quality as my old Droid Incredible (which was great for 8mp).

Battery is fine, just learn to put the phone down and live.

Screen is fantastic, although some people are getting faulty ones, but if you get one manufactured more recently you may be fine.

Oh and not to mention iOS is about as stagnant and feature full as its going to get without a total overhaul.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigmew22:
I think you should consider the HTC rezound. It has the best screen out with 720p 4.3" display, equal to the galaxy nexus but sharper. Google it. 32gb of storage, 8mp camera with 1080p recording. 2mp front face camera. Beats audio, Dual core 1.5ghz snapdragon processor. Dev support is major! Mine is running android 4.0.3 ics and has face lock. Phone is the only one aside from the Thunderbolt that can talk and surf at the sametime on 3g and 4g. The other 4g phones on Verizon can only do it on 4g. HTC sense is the best and with the new sense 4.0 releasing its gonna be a monster. I had the nexus and its nice but it's boring. Vanilla android is ok for some but not me. The 5mp camera was not that great and I dislike the fact that there is no external sd slot. I just hate Motorola blur. They keep a good signal though. With the rezound you get a chance to experience vanilla ics or HTC sense. You can't go wrong. It's amazing

Sent from my HTC Rezound W/ beats
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Don't worry about quad-cores, if they end up like dual cores did in the start it won't be an issue for another year.

Now to the question, it kind of depends, but if I were to chose I'd take the Galaxy Nexus, or the iPhone 4S. Preferably the Galaxy Nexus.

The GPU in the iPhone is better, the one in the new iPad is insane, and I doubt anything better will come until late 2012 (new Nexus with OMAP 5?).

But the GPU in the Galaxy Nexus is still relatively competitive, and not to mention you can double the clock speed of the A5 GPU.

That said I can give you some statistics on that. *

PowerVR SGX 543MP2 @ 250 MHz = 16 GFLOPS (Current iPhone 4S)

PowerVR SGX 543MP4 @ 250 MHz = 32 GFLOPS (New iPad)

PowerVR SGX 540 @ 384 MHz = 6.14 GFLOPS (Galaxy Nexus)

PowerVR SGX 540 @ 512 MHz = 8.19 GFLOPS

PowerVR SGX 540 @ 550 MHz = 8.8 GFLOPS

That being said there is something else I forgot that was in the Galaxy Nexus's favor..

*Not taking any other gpus because these number might not be comparable between architectures.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
Galaxy Nexus, hands down. I can't stop smiling ever since I got the Gnex. I had a HTC Sensation before, it's been really good to me but cannot beat the Gnex. And this phone this AMAZING photos, you just have to hold the phone straight, and click the power button. Excellent clarity, excellent speed, mind-blowing display!

Never go for an iPhone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuffyPSP:
RAZR is great, but I dont consider getting updates frequently since its not directly from Google. i was dying to trade it for my sgs2 before Gnex is announced but glad i waited.

4S? I wouldnt comment on that. I hate iphone, not Apple but iphone only. So its your choice. i admire iMac, Macbook, and iPad but iphone.

Gnex? Well, I am happy with everything it has. Even the battery sucks, i still love it. I even use its 5MP camera most of the time rather than my SGS2 8MP camera. Both took decent pics though.
