I did a quick comparison last night around 12:30a EST of 4 ICS ROM's for the SGSII that I'm tracking. I then summarized it in an email to myself for future reference and then realized that some of you here may find it useful. Truthfully after watching these 4 ICS ROM's (there's probably more but I can only follow so much, feel free to reply and add another ICS ROM and try to keep it in the same comparison format) I realize there's no right or wrong answer, no ROM is superior to another in all aspects. They're all suitable for a daily driver.

Anyways, I'm not an expert and your mileage may vary and I may have mistranslated information, blah blah. Here you go:

Notes: 2 of the ICS ROM’s I’m tracking have moved to the XWLP3 base, so it seems to be the best base to use. 3 of the ROM’s are using the UCLC2 modem that came from the AT&T leak, the consensus is this Modem rocks. Shishir’s releasing a good update on 3/30/2012. No movement/changes on Ultimatum2. All 4 use the Entropy ICS kernel.

Reserving for future edits.

But I wanted to mention after reading through it last night I was leaning towards Shostock (since they updated 3/31) but if that didn't work out, I'd switch to Phone Bricker as it seems well done as well.

But I've used ShishirROM in the past and his ICS ROM has made major improvements in the last few days and last night he promised a new release coming today or tomorrow that promises to be even better, so definitely keep an eye on that one.

Ultimatum is still quiet at the moment, no updates recently, but that could very well mean they're working on a big update/release instead of a bunch of small ones.

A fellow I777 owner I know who knows these phones and ROM's and community quite well was leaning towards Shostock as they seem to have the biggest list of patches/edits/mods that make it the most full featured.

I'll try to keep this post updated. If you want to add another ROM or whatever feel free.

android os in settings.apk, how many time it needs to be told. its just showing wrong percentage, its fixed in 4.0.4 settings.apk. rom is currently 4.0.3 so it shows android os high, will be fixed when aokp for sgs is 4.0.4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] super_extreme:
Nearly all 4.0.3 ICS ROMs have this issue. If the next version is based on 4.0.4 it could be away.

android OS bug in GB was causing battery drain.

first, its sound like, you restored system data. Try going into the filter (top right at app list in tb)

And tick only user apps then restore.

second, do full wipe before moving to 2.2

Cause its volume down + power. -.-

Also u can add screenshot feature I'm power menu via rom control.

go to settings-ROM control-power menu. And tick the screenshot

bhu1 could you please shed some light on this:

I have installed your v2.2 ROM (btw. its great!), but after that I flashed Devil 0.72 (did not notice it was included) and all my scripts were moved from 'etc\init.d' to 'etc\init.d\backup).

When I check the 'backup' folder I have the following scripts there:

S00check

S01zipaling

S02sysctl

S03firstboot

S05freemem

S06removecache

S07fixperm

S09cron

S10sdboost

S30datafix

S90call_vol

S98tweaks

Could you please let me know if any abovementioned script is required/built-in by the ROM (in etc\init.d folder when ROM is flashed, but was moved by flashing Devil again)???

Could anyone check his etc\init.d folder and let me know which script is v2.2 related?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] infifi:
also data. app restoring works, but i would like to restore also my data, as i always do, and i never had any problems with it.

I didnt restore ANY system data..

I did a full wipe before moving..

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ishangoyal:
restoring data of some apps causes problems.. like for me restoring data of games works fine but when I restore data of smart keyboard pro, I start getting FCs.. but restoring data of few other apps just works fine.. so you can restore data of apps one by one and see which causes FCs

Question:

How's everyone's wifi performance? I know I it's not fair to compare it with a laptop or ipad (both laptop n ipad getting full or almost full signals) but my current SGS wifi performance seems to be lower compared to stock GB.

Also, I have this strange issue. I have to force my wifi connection with manually set IP, gateway n DNS, otherwise it will keep "obtaining IP address" without end. Again, no such issue on laptop or ipad or my wife's BB. Even with the static IP, I still somehow get zero data connection eventhough the wifi shows poor to fair signal strength.

Any idea?

Btw, update on my google maps issue, I still couldn't get it from market so a kind soul (yes, it's you super extreme), offered me the apk file. However I managed to get the brut version which allows navigation which wasn't available in my country to begin with.

All in all. Very happy w Infinitum! It's not buttery smooth. But it's melted butter slippery smooth. :p Four thumbs up!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] super_extreme:
WiFi is kernel dependent.

Try flashing latest Glitch, it should have improvements for WiFi.

But I've with stock devil kernel no issues! :-)

iPad, I'm so sick! :eek::eek::eek::eek::p:D

Sadly 2.2 hasn't been ported yet and I really love the look of the green theme.

I´m on this ROM since saturday night and thought he battery consumption is now pretty nice. But then I was surprised that it was higher than Dark Knight 3 while the screen is off, deepidle on. But yesterday I was really surprised after having heard music for 1 hour. Started with 83% then stopped after hearing an hour with 44%. What´s the reason for this drain?

Speaking of battery issues...

@Bhu1

Never seen this kinda stuff happening before...

2.2 battery performance is certainly nice:). Have used all your ROMs and a lot others so can definitely vouch for that. Although ICS (on SGS atleast) is a battery drainer so to save some juice what i usually do is turn off data at night and 2.2 has given mind blowing results:D...say 2-4% consumption overnight!

BUT....yesterday night was 25% consumption:confused: and a little peek a boo showed this as culprit;) (attachments...)

Any comments???:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Don MC:
Yeah. Had the same in the past. The FB app is a piece of crap. It devours your battery no matter what ROM you use. I use a bookmark to the FB webpage instead. Place it as an icon on my home screen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] NightmareCC:
Not rom related! There are some kind of battery eating apps on your device that cause this. Try BetterBatteryStats from xda to find those apps

Are you by any chance using the new Facebook app, I think version 1.9.0, atleast for me its using alomost 62% battery all the time and since the time I have installed it, my phone has been draining battery at 3 times the normal speed.

In call Loudspeaker Volume

Hi All,

I have noticed since installing v2.2 that my loudspeaker seems to be quieter when using on a phone call. Is this taken care of by the modem?

Can anyone suggest the best version of modem to use from experience, I'm using the JVT one that comes with the rom at the moment.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
This depends on where you live. I live in Germany and I'm using KF1 modem which is great for me. But you need to try a few modems to find out which is best suited for you and the region you live in.

deep idle

Hello y'all,

I just managed to get deep idle to work (properly). I activated it in nstools but in never got BOTH top=on and top=off (ms) in idle statistics (nstools). Now i do..

I case someone is not aware of this: You should power off the bluetooth with a command (as 'su') in a terminal if you want to have the full effect of deep idle. See: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23542743&postcount=1814 (faq: How to power down Bluetooth?)

Do this only if you have no need for bluetooth (i don't know if it can be re-activated again) Since i have no use for bluetooth i gave it a shot...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Handeman707:
What means "e.t.a's"?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
Firstly, wifi is in kernel and not modem.

Secondly, these policy settings have never worked for me on ics.

Thirdly, u can these in power saving mode settings via rom control. Those really work. ;)

Can I check if the modem used should be latest and specifically meant for ICS? Cos I just flashed my old DXJV9 modem and I can't get a signal.

Then I realised the baseband and IMEI is "not recognised". Panicked like hell. reflash didn't help either.

But matter is resolved as soon as I flash a stock GB rom, before reflashing to Infinitum.

So yeah....where can I get a proper modem file from? :D

If you want to know about bugs:

The camera app causes my Phone too freeze. In fact I see the app, I see what the camera is doing or facing right now. The picture is there, but I can't open the Settings with the little Icon, I can't take pictures and normaly my phone hangs and other than "seeing trough the cam" I can't do anything. Have to put Battery out and back in again. This is reproduceable, even when freshly started. Last time I got it to switch off the screen, but I didn't manage to get it to life again. I agree I wasn't patient with that at all because I had to connect my phone to the PC to transfer a file but it's annoying me a bit, since my Galaxy S is the only camera I use, quality is good enough and I for myself don't need more.

Oh, and is there a way to get Thinkfree Office again? I switched to your ROM from a 2.2 build, going through installing the official 2.3 as I thought it was the most secure way, then flashing a rooted Kernel and last but not least installing your ROM.
