Can't you just release what you've got now? I don't mind a few glitches. Or just sync git, so i can build myself.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
Everyone here wants you to succeed. We have funded you and others will reward your work after it is complete. And no, I have no idea how long it should take to do this job. But, when you say things like "Flyer ICS coming soon just a few more kinks to work out," like you did at the beginning of May and have been saying "soon" since then or even things like "by tomorrow" or that you are working on uploads, can you be surprised that people think that a release is imminent? So, there is a bit of a disconnect between what we have come to expect and where we are.

Again, I really want you to succeed, but level with us about how long things are going to take. Most people hear "soon" and think it is coming today.

Also, my expectation and probably most everyone else's is that you are building from source. If I have a vote in it, I would say don't spend any more time on a port if working on a port is delaying the main project. AOSP comes first.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] IOIDroid:
Give the man a chance :/ he is creating this purely from source it takes a long time and a lot of effort and when he says he will be releasing soon its because he will, when developing these ROMs you often come across snags that stop you releasing as you want everything to be perfect, so give the guy a chance, you seem to forget that he does this in his spare time and has no real "PROMISE" of funding after the overall release
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
What did I write that sugguests that I am not giving him a chance? Read what I wrote for chrissake.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
how about maybe a quick video status report. Would not take but a minute or two to record and post using any other android device you have, and it would at least give people a perception of the graphical issues you are trying to square off.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jamus28:
Don't mean to offend, but some of you need to chill out and have a drink at your local friendly neighborhood pub.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I do not dissagree, my suggestion was to try to cool nerves. no offense taken
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] thor9934:
Wanting ICS

dont worry dude u are not the only one who crave for Ice Cream Sandwich, it's so damn hot here and i need something to cool me of xD

jokes aside, i think Drew is doing a great job, and we have to wait paitiently for him to finish his magic stuff :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
you want ice cream sandwhich on your flyer? its simple check it out
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
No one is bent out of shape as far as I can tell. Some people are hitting f5 quite a bit though.

What I wrote simply boils down to a request that Drew try to quanity what "soon" means. Also, I suggest that he ditch any work on the port an concentrate solely on the AOSP build.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] thor9934:
you made me laugh xD, Nice you did that only to post it here xD, it never gets old, i guess one of the first i saw like that was some game on a phone xD

Nice one :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
I would say that it is his project let him allot the time however he wants. If he can have a working port out tonight and the soonest he can have the aosp build out is a month or two weeks, I'd rather get something functional sooner than later..

---------- Post added at 05:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:32 PM ----------

I don't know if they are the same as on his beta but, if so the graphical issues make the rom barely useable.

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 PM ----------

Don't mean to offend but, I hate being told to chill out. I also hate drinking.

---------- Post added at 05:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

Is that mint chocolate chip in that ice cream sammich? if so I'm totally jealous.

Maybe drew will name his AOSP "Mint ICS" so the rest of us can enjoy too :p
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mhkabir98:
Not wanting to offend anyone but, an AOSP-like port is already there. See my signature. ;-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
I actually used yours already. I found it to be unusable due to some graphical glitching. It was more usable than DGs in general but, still not stable enough for a daily driver.

Been checking your changelog daily.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mothy:
Have to agree, gave it a try and the force closes were obtrusive and annoying, the shooter port was alot more stable, not knocking it it just didnt work for me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
I really don't see what the rush is. He could crank something out and walk away from it, leaving it barely usable. or he could take several months and deliver a flawless rom with all features working. I can speak for myself when I say I'm naturally an impatient person but I knew this was going to take a while. Hell they had 2 separate teams working on ics on the captivate, and on a device that's much easier to develop on, and last I checked neither rom is completely done yet. both are usable but come with some bugs and glitches. point is this isn't something someone can crank out over night. It's going to take awhile but it'll be work it in the end.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Going full circle here but I do not see anyone trying to rush his progress. Comments like soon, tomorrow, uploading, etc get people looking for a release.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
Yes. Not trying to rush. Not me anyway.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Well first off, there is no rush. I said many pages back, don't mistake excitement and some degree of anticipation for impatience. If I told you sometime within the next year I'll give you a Porsche 911 car for free and a year worth of gas for it (assuming you knew it was true).. You'd probably be excited and curious when you'd be getting it even if not impatient.

Also, I don't see why people only see black and white.. "crank it out incomplete" or "take time and make it perfect."

There is such thing as a middle ground and in fact iterative processes are fairly common in real world development. Not going to tell Drew how to go about making the rom as it's none of my business. Just pointing out that things aren't black and white.. I think most of us here have at least SOME idea of what to expect from alpha/beta roms and won't freak out if we don't get perfection on the first try.

If we don't get an update for 2 weeks. That is perfectly fine, we will just have to send out the memo that Drew's definition of "soon" is a deviation of what we consider "soon."
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
yeah your right, I just need to shut up. I'm checking the site constantly too.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
No one is judging here :p

The only reason I speak up on the subject is because I hate when people type cast me as impatient.

Particularly older people.. "Oh this generation is so impatient blah blah blah!" When the reality isn't that I'm not willing to wait, I'm just excited. Ironic the same generation that use to tell me "don't judge a book by it's cover" is the most guilty about it. :rolleyes:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Chaosz-X:
Alright, first one to judge here.

Guys, I think you got scammed.

Let me start with the first argument:

I loaded up Firefox, and entered 'Drew Garen' in the Google Search box in the top right. Suggested search queries by Google: 'Drew Garen stole ROMs'. I looked into a forum of the Motorola devices, and people there also said he stole ROMs. Besides, if a developer is this experienced, why wouldn't he have an XDA account where he can get recognition for his work, instead of a cheap iWeb website nobody knows about?

Second argument:

Remember his first ROM? It's my ROM. Load it up, go to Settings > About Phone, and Kernel Version clearly states 'akin@ubuntu', guess what, my name is Akin, and that's my compiled version of the kernel. He did no work at all here, the kernel was entirely my work.

Then, the update-script. Have one of you ever tried my first ZIP? Remember that during the flashing of the kernel, it stated 'Flashing boot.img again, efficiency FTW?'. Guess what; exactly the same in his update-script.

Next up, let's take a look at the internals of the ROM. His build.prop is the same like mine, except for the fact that he changed a few changes and removed my name from it. Hell, even the specific part I added for the port to get stuff running on the Flyer more efficiently is exactly the same.

Then, we take a look at /system/etc/init.d. There is a file there called 90flyerhacks. I added that file in my version too, before someone suggested to add the modifications to the ramdisk. I forgot to remove the file from there, and guess what: it's there in his ROM too. He states on his site that the ROM is a fresh compile, then why would it contain my old deprecated fixes which aren't necessary, nor working anymore?

And last but not least; if he would have fixed the kernel, it's just a matter of a 3MB file of the kernel that contains the new msm_fb and KGSL drivers, he could have uploaded that easily as a Proof Of Concept.

Having that said, hereby challenging you, Drew Garen: upload the kernel of your own with working graphics within 24 hours, and I'll take my words back. Else, it should be pretty clear that this is a fraud, and my work is being stolen here.

Oh, and congratulations guys, I think you just paid 400$ for a dude that doesn't know how to fix a single issue in code. Perhaps a bit more investigation would be better next time?

So Drew Garen, act like a man and either show us what you've got, or tell us like a man that you don't know a crap about fixing issues the right way (or fixing issues at all), and just depend on the work of others.

O sh1t

Not sounding good
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DonUber:
Chaosz-X has some good points here and he spent many hours for 2 months working on ICS. Before Chaosz there was nothing, and he brought us a booting AOSP ICS ROM but got stuck at a certain error, he didn't get a single donation (except from lawguy, one which we may thank for his active contribution to the community ;) ), while Drew Garen which has not shown a single fix yet got a whole Flyer.

So Drew better come with some real stuff....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] thor9934:
I've thought about this in long time, and that is why i never donated anything to him, i tried to keep my hope up and WANTED to believe he actually did know something and could make this work for our flyer,

but i was to scared to say anything about it, well we will see what happens, i hope he isn't a scammer, but im loosing faith in him.

thanks to you Chaosz-X for breaking it into pieces, now all we can do is to wait :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Got my popcorn
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I donated to Chaosz-x. Just correcting the record.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Chaosz-X:
Ah, you were that person? Well, thanks a lot in that case ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DonUber:
I am sorry :P , I will correct it ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] minimonkey7:
Lol me too!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I hope this is all much to do about nothing. Something has appeared off since the get go here with this and I have the pm records to prove this is not an after thought. A simple google search of Drew Garen kanger will yield enough results to at least cause some concern, as Chaosz-x stated. If for nothing else I do not see anything that suggest he has developed on a HTC device before. As pointed out earlier his port that is about ready sounds similar to the shooter port, why else is it 4g only.

Hope I am just a tin foil hat person and we all eat crow. Kept my mouth shut for the most part but since we are sharing our thoughts I figured it is safe to express.

good luck on your build, and good luck to those of you who have donated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] killahrey:
Shtuff just got real.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Not making accusations but, just confirming Kernel version in Drew Garens rom is

2.6.35.10-ChaoszXKICS-MOD

akin@ubuntu#17

So it is straight up Chaosz kernel.

While I did find mention of this on Drew Garens website here.

He also says the kernel nearly bricked his flyer here.

So our current time line taken from Drew Garens website is:

Saturday, April 21, 2012-

Thursday, April 26, 2012-

Monday, May 7, 2012- The only ROM we have so far was released WITH Chaosz Kernel.

I'm not making an accusation here but, there are a lot of inconsistencies with just the website.. And the fact that this isn't a more iterative process is striking to me.. Plus earlier in the thread there was a bit of conflict with other developers, which I found a tad strange. (usually there is an air of cooperation that hasn't seemed to exist here)

Now, I will say Drew Garen just might be eccentric but, perhaps there should be some clarification or more credit given where it is due, since we were sort of led to believe Chaosz adjustments were removed... (Which giving credit, if I'm not mistaken is a legal responsibility even in open source software)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Chaosz-X:
Thanks Snow_Fox for another great piece of arguments! :)

Oh, and this; how the f*** does a ROM and a kernel brick a device? I tried a lot, did a lot of obscure tricks to get new things up and running, but DG: you ain't telling me that a faulty ROM or kernel can kill a device. That's just basic bs to make me look bad.
[HTC EVO 3D] peekeesh:
Im running myn's silk rom and ive been looking for hacked mail.apk that works. I did google 'mail.apk sense 3.6' and it took me to an xda thread where there are bunch of mail.apks. unfortunately, none of them worked with this rom.

Has anybody tried hacking mail.apk in myn's rom? Would you mind sharing the apk and odex file?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] peekeesh:
Anyone?
[HTC EVO 3D] dethmetaljeff:
Try the attached apk. It will still prompt you to activate the security policies but it doesn't actually do anything so just tap "Activate" when prompted. I pulled the Mail.apk from my phone which is running MeanRom 1.9 ICS and hacked it myself to bypass the security policies so I would guess it should work for any other Sense enabled ICS rom but I can't guarantee it.

For installation, just copy it to /system/app/Mail.apk (via adb or root explorer or whatever you want) and reboot. You'll have to delete and readd any accounts that already exist as well as recreate any shortcuts to the Mail app.

Enjoy!
[General Questions and Answers] CrisCo71:
Sorry for yet another "now what" question, but...

I rooted my A500 using the Blackthund3r one-click. I didn't check a box (that was unreadable) that I believe had something to do with recovery...

Anyway, now it's rooted, has SuperUser and Titanium Backup installed. Android ver 4.0.3; Kernel ver 2.6.39.4+; Image ver Acer_AV041_A500_RV05RC01_PA_CUS1; Build# Acer_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA_CUS1

The question is - what is this good for now? Apparently I can't overclock until someone cooks a custom kernel and I still can't install apps to SD. On top of that, it actually seems a little glitchy now with screen anomalies and random hangups.

I'm using the stock rom... would doing a recovery backup, wiping and installing a custom rom at least allow me overclocking? Or any performance gain?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

Here you'll find some wallpapers for sense 4 I made from Desktop's wall papers. They have the native resolution for the HTC One X (1440x1280), I've edited and tried them for my HTC Sensation XE with Coindroid 1.5.2. I think the rendering would be the same for a HTC One X but as I don't have this phone I can't tell for sure.

I am not the one who made the originals wallpapers. All I've done is to resize and cropping wallpapers already existing, you can find them here

The following wallpapers display perfectly in both portrait and landscape home screen mode.

cute_girl_long_hairs

girl_imagination_colorful

GOF_locuste

mass_effect_N7

ruins_water

skeleton_bright_girl_vector

The following wallpapers display perfectly in portrait home screen mode. The rendering in landscape do not look good.

Alice

fire_assassin_symbol

I have some projects of wallpapers optimized for landscape mode but didn't have time yet to try it out. Need more time for adjust the resolution to fit perfectly with the landscape cropping.

For those who like my wallpapers but don't have sense 4 you can find some of theme and more, optimized for qHD 540x960 here

By the time if I edit news wallpapers I'll share them too.

ENJOY!

If you like one or all those wallpapers please hit the thanks button.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Illuminatiii_X:
May be a problem with permissions. Reboot your phone into recovery mode and go to "advanced" settings and "fix permissions."

Reboot your phone again and check if that worked with the force closing.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Illuminatiii_X:
Hmm..

This may have absolutely nothing to do with it, but I encountered a problem similar to this before and all I did was flash a different kernel and superuser quit force closing. This may or may not work for you.
