wow thats awesome...like someone said in your post...if we can figure out how to intregrate tasker to automate it, that would be it

i am gonna wait until the update for this rom releases first then try it with this app

To the dev, can you make it so when i open a video on youtube whether on the app on on the browser to stay playing when i lock the phone? I went back to Jugg 5.0 because i wanted to play videos in the background while off. (i opened youtube in the browser and locked in Jugg, doesnt work with ICS)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] asting:
AFAIK this is caused by a youtube update, not by anything the rom does.

Use camera zoom fx;) I use it it is perfect it takes shots great in landscape but portrait it takes sideways so what u do is after taking pic hit settings and rotate once. So u do that for portrait shots and landscape don't need to do nothing....it also sends pics the right way and u can view them the right way in gallery....ics leak is perfect to me now:)

I am having serious issues with my Ubuntu 11.10....

I can compile kernel 2.6 from source....

Can anyone with kernel experience compile it and add to its script this line so we can get the orientation.ko module?

From what I have found with auto rotate off and camera360 if I rotate phone with capacitive buttons (menu home back search)

To the LEFT that it takes horizontal shots correctly.

To the right and they appear right on screen but upside down when image is viewed.

Auto rotate off just means auto rotate all apps that forcibly change rotation (ie most games) that the phone handles the display correctly.

Also exdialer is working perfectly when used in place of stock dialer (don't remove stock dialer just set ex as default) and it is free. No VM button and none if it's use freezes the app or phone in my testing.

After you add the change to the updater script you will need to go into recovery and wipe cache, and dalvik cache. then flash zip and it will fix the power button issue. If you do not wipe the caches it will pick up the old settings.

for Swype you have to delete apk from /system/app otherwise Swype installer complains.

Also auto correct works just fine for me. You have to be sure that you used the super wipe script before ROM flash as that sounds like stale data to me.

I have found aftger the ROM is flashed and booted I can remove the TWLauncher from /system/apps without ill-effects. I have not tried removing all the rest of the TW components as I am betting one of those may be where the true issue with its full removal may lie, but I may try to work with it tonight and report back.

Dunno if you can do it with the first boot script, but have the phone install TW and then remove JUST the TWLauncher apk leaving the other TW prefixed pieces will remove the need to select launcher on boot at least.

Yeah it appears as though I can remove all TW services [Launcher, TWCalendar, TW Wallpaper Chooser] and restarted with no ill effects at all. Worst comes to worst if you have or create an on first boot script and have it remove TW*.apk after it had a chance to install to pass the initial check that may cause the FC you see it should work just fine and allow you to remove all of TW and use any launcher without having to set defaults on first boot.

ADB and Deveolping with ease

ADB is fuly working for me I used install and it went through and I even remounted /system and used adb push blah.apk /system/app then restart [or reboot I always forget which] and both apps showed up just fine. I did notice at one point I had to do an ADB kill-server when I did an adb devices and got ???????? instead of a serial and the next time you use any ADB command it will auto start the adb daemon for you so don't need to worry about adb start-server really unless you want to be all anal about your procedures.

BE SURE you have USB debugging enabled in developer settings or ADB will not work

MAKE SURE you dont mount the USB storage OR have a script auto mount them for you or ADB wont work until you close the USB drives.

<---- Using Xubuntu 12.04 BETA 2 [WUBI install next to Win 7 32-bit on a toshiba nb205-n210 netbook [dev comp]

Also guys, I am a dev who is not hardcore, but I am trying to at least help field as many issues as I can and help the OP and devs focus more on I dunno DEVELOPING THIS AWESOME ROM. kieep in mind the more attention the OP and devs pay to threads that is that much less time they are deving. PLEASE SEARCH FOR YOUR ANSWERS BEFORE POSTING. It will only help get full ICS to us faster :-)

[just thought to explain that incase you wonder why I am trying to answer as many posts as I can].

I always like using some *nix flavor to work with android whether you use a VM like Virtual Box [harder but if you use USB filter it is easier] and of course as a VM you have one OS over another so better be good comp. Otherwise for easiest use mount the desktop CD from any Ubuntu Linux and run the wubi.exe from inside Windows and follow the prompts it will use your current NTFS drive and create c:\wubi and install ubuntu as a loop FS based OS and then restart comp and choose ubuntu from boot menu [also all windows files exposed to ubuntu via /host dir inside Ubuntu so you can easily grab any work you did in Windows.

I recommend Xunbtu [or google installing XFCE on an existing ubuntu install and check it out if you have a netbook or lower end dev comp as XFCE desktop is SOO nice and MINIMALISTIC [in screen space it is FULL featured and is friendly to a Windows user at first glance] and with it being so minimalistic also on resources it has breathed soo much more life in to what was a stupid door stop of a netbook

Contacts and Syncing from Google Issue and Fix

I found after installing and adding my google account I still had no contacts, calendar etc. and when I went in to contacts it tried to load some data from ATT.

I cxld the ATT check as well it will never get an answer LoL

Next I went in to accounts and sync and chose my google account entry and on next screen placerd check in the services I wanted synced [all off except Picasso and one other by default [stupid ATT].

Once I selected those and asked it to run a manual update [diudnt feel like waiting for next auto run] it ran down the list and BAM I had everything where it should be

Dunno if it makes a difference but I also tap market and then existing to add my account to the phone that way and not via accounts and settings [just faster and usually looking for market apps right off the bat, but hope that helps]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TheMasterBaron:
I guess I should point out that running the adb install command does not produce any kind of error, it just doesn't do anything.

ETA and other General Questions

Reading just a couple pages back I found that OP is working on last minute fixes and little sleep ["my eyes are deserts"] LoL so just hang in there the ETA will go away or change and newer link will be something other than RC2 [even if it states RC2 with today's date or fixed] I dunno how big next release is but essentially wait until download links change.

Also note CST is Central Standard Time not CDT or Central Daylight Time. If he is CST then times are even further off than normal

EST [Eastern Standard Time] -5 hours from GMT [Greenwich Mean Time]

EDT [Eastern Daylight Time] -4 hours from GMT [All of Florida today]

CST [Central Standard Time] -6 hours from GMT

CDT [Central Daylight Time] -5 hours from GMT

Most CST places do go CDT but there are a few exceptions same as EDT

I know that is kinda detailed for the question, but wanted to answer it and give table for others who read to adjust for their time.

Working and non-working report

Working features reports: Full Device Encryption works like a charm. Took about an hour as advertised.

Sdcard encrypt fails stating not enough free space which trust me both my USB storage and external Sdcard have plenty. Gonna look in to that today and set if I can get anywhere. (fingers crossed)

No lag felt after. Just wish face lock was an option with it turned on.

Don't forget go to screen lock set to password and it has to have 6 characters including one number BEFORE the button for encrypt device is enabled for you to tap in encrypt device.

Titanium Backup app DB convert to WAL in batch processing

Works like it should had to restart and run twice when it stopped processing but went through just fine.

This converts your app data DBs to newer WAL format which makes them much faster and only slightly larger.

After applying this my phone got a couple steps smoother and faster (not a whole ton, but very worth it IMHO).

I dunno if you have to pay to get access to WAL conversion or not in titanium have had license for a year.

Issue with signal bars: dunno if this is due to Blaze modem but my signal bars never fully fill speed is there so it is like graphic is missing or a scaling issue (signal calc algorithm off? Maybe) but my data and call clarity point to still having full signal even if graphic is off.

I have been using this rom for a day now and haven't had a single big problem other then Auto Rotation. Fast and Good battery life. Not much more you can ask for.

The small things ive found

-Facebook doesn't load sometimes i need to open and close it a few times.

-The odd time the Data dies and i have to reboot the phone to get it back

-Bad reception, not to sure if its the modem or what but places i used to get full service i have none.

-No lock screens work

Thanks again this rom is great.

Try using the Blaze ICS modem (awe thread in same development forum this thread is in I use it and have no data issues at all.

Also could try my install procedure as listed a little back in this thread to duplicate the install exactly as I ran it.

Coupled with shutdown issue (none here) I soul suspect stable data or bad flash be sure to use darkside super wipe (see first post here for link) script. My directions include it's use.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
This definitely sounds like stale data. I can't say it enough folks usedarkside super wipe. Unlike all other ROMs you probably have installed YOU HAVE TO WIPE ALL STALE DATA it is not a step you can omit like moving from 2.3.3 to 2.3.7 this is a total OS overhaul and it needs a blank skate (DON'T FORMAT INTERNAL STORAGE OR EMMC) Darkside will do everything you need I don't recommend you use format un CWR it is not the same and not as thorough.

I posted detailed step by step directions just a bit back in this thread follow those and I bet all the little issues you have they are not listed as known our as working you probably have a corrupt download, flash or stale data remains.

First off THANK YOU to OP, as others have said this first version is a tease for whats to come Im sure of it. I installed last night and thought i would report back with what i have experienced. Here goes:

Followed RealPariahs insts to the T when installing and had to do a few more reboots and wipes after phone upgraded apps before the SIM card was read properly but it came around and works well. I also installed RomRacers ics kernel as well. Bugs are as follows:

-Call quality is rough and people I call can hardly hear me at all.

-A few apps have force closed in the same manner thus far (blank black screen just hangs for about a minute and reports frozen)

-System Tuner was unable to force CPus online

-Apps such as Busybox and Ti Backup cant gain root access. Im going to go back through this thread again to find out if this is a common issue.

-Trying to shut down and restart freezes phone

-When using Apex and Zeam, switching between homescreens is a bit choppy but all other screens (Drawer, settings, market) are snappy.

-Under sound settings if i click Music Effects phone freezes.

Maybe a little later after brain starts working I will try a fresh reinstall to see how things go.

Thanks again OP for your hard work and all others for such great work and input.

You can all try this to help smooth out transition animations, i'm not sure if it works but it definitely feels like it does, maybe i'm fooling myself though, give it a try!

go to System Settings > Developer options

and then set:

LoL if you consider that a lecture then you must have not been around forums for very long wait until a troll nails you or someone with no patience for that matter. Folks keep in mind I dont think anyone is stupid, or any other negative statement on a persons intelligence.

What I do when I post is not only say answer a question or attempt to guide what appears to be a lost user posting in a wrong thread, but to also leave enough info there so as to guide any other user who has the same issue to the same or right place without them having to have read any previous posts that can get buried as everyone posts.

I love everything tech and especially working on computers and Android based "Smart" phones. I like everyone else is volunteering their time here. I will never put anyone down or make them feel bad [or lets say I hope not I cant account for your local customs, style of reading, and interpretation of what I say so I can only say I try my best]. If I really had some issue with anyone here or anything else for that matter I will just stop being an active part of the community and go elsewhere where my knowledge is welcome.

I am sorry if you felt put off by my response, but I have never and will never mean to treat anyone with nothing less then the utmost respect and consideration as I hope that is how others will treat me when reading and replying to my posts or otherwise sharing information with me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Yeah downscaling graphics can help anything run faster because the phone presents same info but in smaller space so it is less taxing on the graphics (and can also appear to be higher quality as more info in smaller space). Likewise if you go higher then the phone has to stretch same info to more space making it slower (and usually less quality). This is just a general rule as it depends on code hardware and method (is it just cropped or resized for instance).

For general questions see very first post of thread for link to QA thread. toggle zip listed if you search the primary post as well as use the search box for this section. It is called 16 toggles blah zip. I believe but just go to display and uncheck auto rotate. Toggles are just shortcuts not adding anything you can't get to via settings menu if all else fails.
