ICS AOSP works surprisingly good considering I always prefer GB Sense ROM in the past. Current state of Playground ICS is very positive. Twistedumbrella is very active and new build is almost daily. I strongly suggest you give it a try.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Thanks, I will have to give that a go soon :)

Does that mean flashing a new build like, every second day though? :eek:
[HTC Incredible S] itandy:
Twistedumbrella got 6 builds for the past 10 days! And the latest build seems to finally fix the camcorder. Be warned, you'll be real busy! ;)

How's the battery on playground? Does it have any issues that ice cold 7.2 doesn't have?

ARHD 2.3. Battery life is bad.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Why would you use it if battery life is bad?
[HTC Incredible S] JamesPatageule:
Hi,

I tested some versions in the time :

Stock ROM

Virtuous Affinity

Virtuous Quattro

MIUI (unable to connect network, and some bugs)

IceColdSandwich

I plan to test others like Primadonna when some issues will be corrected. And, why not try again a fully functionnal MIUI version. I'm looking too the Playground ICS.

I wanna stay on the ICS Roms ! ^^
[HTC Incredible S] pec0ra:
After using IceColdSandwich for quite a long time and trying Virtuous Primadora, I finally got back to GB and Sense. I prefer Sense than AOKP or AOSP and even if I thought Virtuous Primadora was really stable and it had the best battery life I ever had, I missed the camera and went back to GB. I used Virtuous Affinity for a while, I liked it a lot but went to Trinity because it is more customizable. XxXPachaXxX finally made the ROM I wanted, Affinity with more customization : RunnyMede Xtreme v2. I'm using it since then.

hello my mom has the Evervolve(or however spelled rom)..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=936822&highlight=aosp

The rom is a little dark but she likes it tho.

was wondering if there is a way to put the stock dialer and contacts back into the phone(like below).

Her's right now is black background with white lettering. Thanks for the help in advance.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparksco:
Your attached pic is of a Sense Rom and your referencing a AOSP Rom. So in short the answer is no, you can't put phone/contacts system applications from Sense/AOSP or vise versa. Does she know the difference between Sense and AOSP Roms???
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t12icky0:
i know its a sense rom thats why i was asking if is possible. i do know the difference and i know it wont work but maybe i phrased th question wrong.

Is there any theme that looks like the one above(white background black lettering) like the sense version?

First things First, this is NOT my WORK I have no hand in the developing of this Rooting Method. I found it useful after hours of searching the web to root my EeePad TF101 with android 4.0.3 ICS

thanks to chan32167 and all that help made this possible

It is easy and simple and yes it gave me ROOT

chan32167’s rooting tool for TF101

Please note that this method is for rooting the original Transformer (TF101) using Windows.

DISCLAIMER: I will not be held responsible if you lose data or your device gets damaged in the following of this guide. Proceed at your own risk.

Step 1: If you haven’t already, download and install the latest drivers for your ASUS Transformer TF101 [then get it from ASUS Official Website]. ASUS sync

Step 2: Pick up your Transformer. Navigate to Settings > Applications > Development and enable USB debugging.

Step 3: Connect your Transformer to your Windows PC using a USB cable. make sure Asus Sync is connect

Step 4: Download tf101 ics root.zip (below) Unzip it using a suitable software (we recommend 7zip) and then launch run.bat.

Step 5: Your device will now be detected Follow on-screen instructions.

If you followed the steps correctly, your ASUS Transformer TF101 will be rooted on Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich. To confirm this, look for a Superuser app in your apps drawer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wolf849:
It's old and works only on 9.2.1.17 or .13 as far as I remember so even viperMod is better but worth try.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eugene17:
yes you are right my firmwire was 9.2.1.17 thanks for clarification
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xcartay:
Help rooting. I tried everything...

Hi, i have read lots of threads and forums i have investigated and tested. I tried initially with "tf101 ics root.zip" i did the syncing and running of "run.bat" followed every step, and nothing. Made variations of the same process and nothing.

Then i tried with RazorClaw and a advice with "device lacks need file" appear.

Then i tried SparkyRoot and it read "Exploitable file not found".

I dont now what to do anymore, i just want to "Freeze" all the bloatware and crappy uninstallable apps that auto load on my Transformer.

i Got the Asus Transformer TF-101 with ICS 4.0.3.

I uploaded a screen print with firmware versions installed in bit.ly/MILGVv

Please help!

Thanks in advance

Not working for me :( NOOB!, I know!

Please help, is not running properly for me.

I do download ans unzip OneclickrecoveryV0.4.2

I reseted my TF101 to factory defaults

Enabled USB debug mode

Installed Asus sync on my Windows 10 laptop (also from ASUS). It detects my device.

I run on my computer with admin privileges "EasyRecoveryV0.42.bat"

When "manually" installing the adb drivers It says that the actual are newer and doesn't do that part

The device is listed as a long list of numbers

When the zergs are rushing (just kidding), it says:

"failed on '/data/local/tmp' - not a directory"

and then the message:

"adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon strated successful * "

is shown many times,and a few more errors.

The device does not restart or do anything by it's own. I don't see blue bars or anything.

Ok, then I uninstalled asus sync, and everything looks nice until first reestart.

The 1st restart is ok, but after requiring the second one, prompting you to see a blue bar... the restart happen but the blue bar does not.

It looks like it¡s not making anything

oneclick recovery console says:

"

If you do, you might have a *very* shiny paperweight.

Continue? Y/n

starting, this will take awhile...

/dev/block/mmcblk0p4: cannot open for write: permission denied

"

From this on, I can't fix anything and the device is running like always

Any suggestion?

Android 4.0.3

Careful with root on 4.0.3 kingroot works 100% so then flash CMW and flash katkiss ROM will update your version to 4.4.4 and install superSU then factory reset to remove kinguser etc then use ES file explorer to remove any kingroot files put on the system then kingroot will be removed and you'll have standard SuperSU

*flashing different ROMS (ard 10)

* using the latest RSD (5.6)

*charging my battery completely

*storing the sbf in C:

* using the RSD lite in admin mode

If you have a defy+ use this link:

Is your cable eventually weak?

Have you made a Factoryreset before flashing with RSD-Lite?

Have you renamed the SBF in short name, like ABC.SBF?

@ RATTAR

Which SBF have you flashed?

**-- i'm flashing all kinds of sbf online but eventually gets stuck at 100 % ..

Try to flash SBFs from (some url)

If you have a defy+ use this link:

**-- I have a defy but it's updatd to a 2.6.9 kernel.. so i'm trying SBFs from both the links you've pasted

Is your cable eventually weak?

**-- i doubt the cable is weak cause its reading when i connect and its also flashing till the 100 %

Have you made a Factoryreset before flashing with RSD-Lite?

Have you renamed the SBF in short name, like ABC.SBF?

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UltraBoykj:
Everyone that answers this thread will give their version/opinion on what is the "best" and all of them will be right to some degree or another. Nearly all combinations of roms/kernels mix to something that feels slightly different in some way. Personally, I have played with 4 ROMs (AOKP, AOSP, Slim and BAMF) and 2 kernels and loved most of them. Once you root your phone, it is VERY easy to experiment and decide for yourself. Play a little.

If you want speed, download a benchmark tester and put combinations to the test. If you want customizations, nearly all roms which have threads that post 20+ msgs /day have customizations that 1/2 of us will never use.

The best answer nearly anyone can give you is to experiment and try it out. It becomes fun after a while to just try and see.

My biggest recommendations to you are these:

<1> Always NANDROID backup before you try something new.

<2> Check the MD5 sums, they are there for a reason. If a sum is different you likely will encounter bugs of some sort. Especially radios! ( I can't stress this enough. A bad radio is 1-step away from a bricked, unusable phone )

<3> Have google backup your apps or learn to use Titanium backup.

<4> If you have a setup you really like that includes a theme - dont be quick to jump to a new version of a rom until you are sure that there is a theme to get you back to where you want afterwards. Nothing is more annoying than ( for example for me ) loading up a beautiful new version and having to deal with blaring white widgets you can't invert or theme.

<5> Read a little on a rom/kernel before jumping aboard. You will get a feel from the users what's good and what's bad about it.

All the above said, if you are a cowboy and just want to jump on and try things - caution to the wind:

My personal preferences:

Liquidsmooth/Franco Nightly 512

AOKP/nearly any kernel ( my first week of playing, I flashed a new one daily to "play")

SlimICS/Lean

That order.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Aokp is the go to rom most people start with. Then expand from there if you aren't satisfied.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jsweetser2:
I agree with AOKP. I actually did everything in reverse. I started with radios, almost bricked, then went with SLIM, GUMMY, and ended up on AOKP. I like AOKP a lot. Plenty of customization, great battery life (with profiles from SetCPU), easy to learn and all wrapped up in one nice package.

I may play with alternate kernals and radios later, but not until I have more information and experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deepayanneogi:
Liquid + lean kernel expeiremental + leantweaks + uglc1 + root .

just my 2cs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:
It's your choice. We can only tell you, what we think is "cool".

Make a NanD backup, download a couple of ROMs, flash them. Give them a test run, find the ROM you like, then do the same with the kernel :)

As you asked us: I personally think, that Jack Pham is a good ROM, I'd recommend it to everyone, and my current kernel is : Imoseyon 3.0.29 I can overclock my phone to 1.65 GHz :D I'm gonna update my sig, in a mo ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Rather than recommend a specific ROM; I'll ask what is it you're after aside from what you'd mentioned?

If you want stability, full functionality of expected components, with some cutomizability, then you'll want a ROM with a shorter feature list.

If you're willing to trade of stability to an extent, and accept that everything

may

not work as expected, then go for a ROM with a massive feature list, and endless customization.

The above are

generalizations

, but hold true for the most part, with a 4% margin of error 98% of the time.

Each scenario has its trade offs. For the most part there are 2 schools of thought on ROM building for these phones, and 2 schools of thought for what users expect.

I'm currently experiencing issues with face unlock.

I can unlock my phone using face unlock the first time without any issues. However, after I unlock my phone with face unlock, the phone stays unlocked. When the screen turns off (manually or automatically) it does not relock. I have my phone set to lock immediate when the screen turns off.

When I press the power button and it will be at the launcher. In addition, I noticed that the second time I unlock, the light sensor blinks and it continues to blink until I restart the phone.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Does anyone know how to fix this?

Edit: problem solved. I pushed another face unlock apk and it seems like it got fixed. Corrupted apk maybe
