Continuing on from gh123man's Open ICS thread, we extended the scope of the project to cover the A100 & A200 devices too.

For the last month we've been quietly working on this & the wheels are now in motion to get the devices merged into CyanogenMods source.

It should only be a matter of time till the nightlies start rolling.

Merge status: Done

If you wanted to compile for yourself, follow one of the many guides on xda to get your machine set up & the CyanogenMod source downloaded.

Following instructions are for the a500, substitute a100 or a200 as needed

. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_a500-userdebug

Wait for the device folders to be downloaded.

Connect your device via adb.

Run extract-files.sh in the device/acer/a500 folder

brunch cm_a500-userdebug

wait for the compile to finish (can take a while), flash new rom...

Builds (see post 2)

Contributors:

myself, gh123man, hbwelch, randomblame, shchers

Please hit the thanks button on some of their posts too, this has been a team effort. :)

Once we're official, threads will be started for each of the devices in their respective forums, in the meantime it'd be good to keep discussion here so it's a little easier for us to track.

Not working:

Known bugs:

Wifi? haven't had a report of trouble in a long time... tentatively saying this is no longer an issue

Reporting bugs

Please please please read the following:

If you have a bug, we need a bit more info than "such & such isn't working"

Things to check

before

reporting a bug

Did you wipe before flashing the build?

If no, nandroid, wipe & re-flash...

Check to see if the bug still exists.

Did you restore settings/data using Ti backup or similar?

If yes, nandroid, wipe, re-flash &

don't

restore your data...

Check to see if the bug still exists.

If you've done the above, & the bug is still there, we need some debugging info!

logcat output is usually a pretty good start (post it to pastebin or similar), we will let you know if we need more.

Credits & thanks:

vache - all the leaked ROM's

drellisdee - patched A500 kernel

CyanogenMod - source

Google - source

More to come.

step by step for the leak?

Ok, I installed the .31 leak. I am happy with it though I noticed some SoD's over the past few days.

I have cm9 on my Captivate and I love it so I want it on the tablet as well. CM has a very nice wiki that walks you though rooting and installing.

Could someone provide some more fleshed out steps for this ROM as well?

I assume I need to:

1. root the leak, probably with blackthundr's method

2. install Clockwork recovery mod (can I use Acer recovery from Google market instead?)

3. boot into recovery and install the rom (factory reset and cache wipes etc, etc)

Am I missing anything? The waters are so muddied for the casual enthusiast with the various leaks and bootloaders and the sudden influx in roms.

Thanks for your work and your patience,
[Acer Iconia A500] Zatta:
Okay, as I am pretty new to this device as well and I was facing the same situation as you were in, I'll share my experience in this matter:

I basically followed the instructions here to get the correct bootloader and cwm but instead using the package there I used the package from this post under section 1.1.

But I wasn't on the leak so getting my CPUID wasn't as easy as reading out the dmesg (but for you it should work out). I did the nandroid trick as discribed in this post by Euclid's Brother. The UID.txt was under /mnt/external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/2012-04-12.20.33.00/uid.txt. The text in that file I filled in Vache's site to generate my SBK.

Enjoy the reading :D

After that it was pretty easy. Just flash through cwm and don't forget to flash the gapps but you are used to that.

For a first release, this is amazing! Super fast and no bugs so far. All hw works as expected, including the camera. That's especially amazing for an "unofficial" build. Love the boot screen, btw.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ned4spd8874:
So I'll make this short. I got a replacement Inc today but it is a SLCD version. For the life of me, I just can't seem to get it rooted. unRevoked fails no matter what I try. Also somehow in the 5+ hours I've been trying to do this, I "upgraded" the hboot to 1.02.000 and have that "locked oow" message in pink. I'm thinking this is a bad thing.

Any tips out there as to what my next steps should be. I am currently unrooted and have s-on. It's stock 2.3.4 also. Thanks!

Thanks, it kinda worked, but kinda didn't. My phone is now unlocked, but it just reboots. I've posted in the other thread for help. Right now my phone is useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StillDRE:
First i ran the phone with stock 4.0.2, and one morning when i woke up(the phone was in the charger) the phone was in a boot loop(turned off when the google letters came up), so I ended up with a factory reset.

Some days later I rooted the phone and installed AOPK rom and installed google apps. 2 days later it got into a boot loop again, but now it booted all the way till where I tyoe in the SIM code, if I did it really fast I could also get past the sim code but just seconds after it booted again. I tried everything from CWM, restore an older backup, wipe cache/data but the phone couldn't find the boot or something like that. So ended up push adb stock rom.

Is this something thats normal? I got 2 friends with the same phone, never had any problem, they both run stock 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stktd:
I too had a problem with my Gnex, it kept freezing up and switching off, if you are getting this problem on stock and custom roms its likely hardware, so send it off to Sammy, just a heads up but mine was sent off 10.02.12 first time then 2 more finally they said thay would replace it .... That was a month ago, rang them yesterday and they said it would be another week .. what I'm getting at if your insurance could offer a quicker fix I'd go with that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:

Also concerned about some who say bad battery life with skyrocket because of no LTE on/off ability :confused: ...

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbso:
ok, lets get a hold of the specs etc,

I myself own an X8,

The xperia X8 was released on 2010 on June.

whilst the W8 was released on 2011 on April, so that means the W8 is a, could i say, a newer model of the X8.

the X8 and W8 both have TFT capacitive touchscreens. S w that is the same.

Both can also have upto 16gb on a SD card.

Both also have the same amount of RAM (unfortunately nothing is higher ther :( ) and they both have same internal storage.

When the X8 was released, it came with donut, but when W8 was released it came with eclair.

Thats nothing really important but I guess it should be noticeable that the X8 is older than the W8.

The W8's loudspeaker test got these specs: Voice 66dB / Noise 62dB / Ring 69dB

And the X8's loudspeaker test got this: Voice 66dB / Noise 66dB / Ring 69dB

There is only the noise that has a difference of 4, but its different i guess.

OK, so another test i did of the Audio quality.

Heres the X8's results: Noise -75.6dB / Crosstalk -70.7dB

Heres the W8's results: Noise -86.8dB / Crosstalk -84.1dB

As you can see there is a slight difference between them.

I'm not really making much sense (?), but what i'm trying to say is, comparing specs (mostly all the same) the tiny differences between them make W8 look more new (?), but in most people's opionion's they would say X8 is better. I agree, i think the X8 is better, but thats because there was more development for it. I have only just seen ROM's that say W8 people can use it too.

But, from what I know, the W8 would be for people who like their music more that anything else, and X8 would be for people who want more development for their phone's.......(?)

If i am making any sense to people, then, do you agree or disagree?

hope this helps,

I think the best is X8 because it have a development really good.

When I buy this phone I was also turned to W8 but the problem was that many threads say "that is compatible with X8, X10, X10 mini, X10 mini pro, etc. Possible to work on W8". :(

So it means that W8 isn't tested for that stuff that you probably want in the future. Of course that most of them work for W8 :cool: but it is always a threat :eek: because no one tried on W8, always on other devices. ;)
