[Motorola Droid RAZR] Golgo:
First off thanks to OP! :)

I have the Chinese ICS leak running and I'm pretty happy with it - a few issues though like WIFI tether not working and an odd bug with BT which can cause a reboot.

What are the actual improvements in this rom? Is it worth flashing and risk not being able to revert to GB or should I stay on this for now?

What do you guys think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Report: I failed with creating a downgrade method, so far. :(

Does anyone has the boot.img from the older 4.0.3 Leak from eternity project? Really need this to create a root method. If so, please PM to me. THX.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
you can flash the system from the nandroid to your system and retain downgradeability, I have still experienced the wierd bt bugs under this system, personally I prefer the system from the chinese leak and and looking at merging the two together.

What is the kernel version on the Tmobile Build?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Kernel (5/3/12):

3.0.8-g678d80e

rjd378@zch45lnxdroid63#1

Edit: I tried downgrading from the tmob leak, but withou success.. Also root has failed. The reasons are the newer bootloader (T-Mob: 0A.74 / China: 0A.73) and the newer Kernel, I guess. The root method from the chinese leak doesn't work because the 4.0.3 boot.img can't be flashed - verification failure (signature). I could flash the chinese leak over the bl and kernel from the t-mobile build, and restored succesful the t-mobile leak. But downgrade to GB or rooting is impossible so far. Any idea?

P.S. I tried the p18 file without success.

BTW: Do you have the kernel from the old ICS Leak from Kholk? Need this for rooting.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SS2006:
Can someone post a whats working and whats not? :)

like are all main things working (video recording?)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Everything is working fine so far - h/w acceleration, camcorder, just everything except some single games (I've heard, but for me everything and all games are running great). It's fast and stable, a bit more battery draining as GB (for me personally). The only bug I've noticed: When adding e-mail accounts in the client it doesn't accept the password, but after reboot it did - if not, a full wipe will do. But this didn't happen to everyone!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] farhanito:
I've had trouble by doing this,

Yes it works,

but, on mine, the Android System took more than 40% battery usage, even greater than the Screen... and this kills my battery so fast
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
Yes I have this kernel on my pc at work, will look tonight.. It's mothers day today. :)

Will upload when I get a chance
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kenosis:
I am now on rooted ICS. When I "Backup and Restore", i get this error

"Error while restoring /system!"

how can i solve it?

Error on extracting mmcblk1p18-go.rar

my razr is dead
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
You can't solvethis so far.

What are you trying to restore? GB? No way, just as described in the PO.

Maybe you could try advanced restore, just restore the system and data, because boot and anything else won't be restored, BUT THIS WILL BRICK YOU DEVICE, I guess. Then you will have lost root, because you would have to restore ICS using RSD (flash t-mob-system only) then install the ics leak in moto recovery. Everything will work except root! So, better stay on the rooted leak and wait until we will have found a way to change or downgrade or whatever...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
You may can try this to get an working Phone again

[Motorola Droid RAZR] kenosis:
To install the leak:

- put the Nandroid File to your ext. SD-Card/Clockworkmod/backup/

- reboot into CWM, choose restore and the backup. Good Luck!

i tried to restore above nandroid backup.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Which system are you running currently? The chinese leak? If so and the nandroid restore fails, just go to advanced restore and choose restore system. This should work. If your root will be lost, install rootkeeper and choose restore root (the su-backup is included in the /system/)

But beware, there is no way back to GB, you just can get back to the chinese ICS.

If this method fails to install the leak on your device, go to the OTA thread (linked in OP) and install it with the method described there.

EDIT: Sorry, I just saw now that you got error while extracting the p18 file. Did you replace the p18 file with your backup-file after flashing the chinese leak? Seems that you have the chinese p18 on your device. But the method which is linked by HSD-Pilot should work for you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
The Chinese Kernel is

3.0.8-gafb328b

[Motorola Droid RAZR] gerazzo:
Amazing! My Razr is running ICS smoothly.. .at last!

really happy!

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Didn't know that you wanted to know the version of the chinese kernel.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
I didn't but perhaps we can flash chinese rom via rsd,fastboot flash tmobile system and tmobile kernel to eliminate stupid battery drain when restoring tmobile system onto chinese setup.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
May work, but only if you don't have the German leak installed because its impossible to flash the Chinese kernel over the German one, except we had the old ICS	kernel from the first EU leak which kholk has released in January.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] farhanito:
ahh.. so battery draining is indeed happening to everyone that do such? :(

wonder if this steps @koreanoc mentioned here will also caused battery drains..

basically:

- flash chinese leak

- down to T-Mo 2.3.6

- apply T-Mo 4.0.4 update
[Motorola Droid RAZR] la121mo:
my wifi is not working (protected modems only tested ) :(

when I want to connect to a network after I set pass , it just shows the network "saved,secured with wep" no more action even i press connect after that.

I will try unsecured networks tomorrow.

the steps I did:

1-flash Chines ICS

2-install CWM recovery

3-restore T-mobile ICS by the CWM

btw i dint have this problem in chines ICS

and my phone is not T-mobile :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Why didn't you install the leak using RSD and the OTA-file? If you restore the leak over the chinese ICS, there may be issues. But with a clean install you won't have errors. Now it's to late, I guess. No way to downgrade for now..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
You can try an clean install on that way >

:( I'm afraid that phone locks and I cant use my carrier any more and my phone comes useless.(due to changes in CID and some other things) so i restore it because till i know nand just change system files in rarz no more.

:confused: so if there is no problem with other carriers I will try too flash the t-mobile GB then its OTA :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
I think there're many users out there, that don't use T-Mobile running this Leak.

I'm in the nice position using the T-Mobile Net. :D

Hi guys! I had used AOKP and CM9 for a while, but I recently went back to a gingerbread rom (UnOriginal and CM7) and it feels that Gingerbread has much more responsive/quick scrolling.

Opinions? Any ideas to get ICS scrolling more responsive?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Disable scrolling cache? Also, ics changed the way android scrolls so it has a different feel now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Volcomstone000095:
Okay I'll try that. Yeah it's really the "feel" that is different. Sometimes I feel like when i flick the screen to scroll down a list, and then touch the screen again, there is almost a delay in the list from stopping.

Thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
No problem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] T90:
Where is scrolling cache located?

Thx in advance!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
I believe under developer options

Is there any mod or something to revert the scrolling back to how it was?

Or is there even any benefit to upgrading to ICS?

Go into Galaxy S II Settings and turn down the Touch sensitivity to 20.

[General Questions and Answers] Superorb:
Hi all. I'd like some advice for my next Android phone to replace my Optimus V. Data speeds are terrible where I live and I need faster data speeds for work. I'm going with the T-mobile $30/month plan so I'll need either a T-mobile or unlocked phone. My budget is roughly $225. Originally I was only considering the Exhibit II 4G since it's $200 new, but I wouldn't mind getting a better used phone for the same price in good condition. I'd like Gorilla glass, but it's not required as I can just use a screen protector. I'd also like to run ICS but it's not a requirement either. Must have the following:

Android Phone

3.7" or larger screen

Camera Flash

Easily Rootable

Active Devs and ROM community

T-mobile (or unlocked)

NO physical keyboard

Under $225

So, what do you guys think?

Lol, I totally feel yall. I actually setup mine in a night, did custom graphics and all. It's actually really easy once you get the graphics, but until you get the graphics its really tedious. Basically, in a nutshell, you need a graphic for all your different "buttons". Then, install ADW and set it to have like 8 rows and 6 columns (that may not be the right configuration). Then, go install Desktop Visualizer. Then, create a widget for each of your different buttons, then set each widget with the proper graphic and to open the right file. Then, I added a long thing widget on the bottom for the shadow and had it do nothing, its just there for looks. And do that for each page of buttons... See its easy? lol...

I was thinking about putting together a tutorial and uploading all my icons and psd files for people... I might still do it. It's really not hard, and if I supplied the graphics then really you guys could get it setup and working in a matter of an hour or two. I tell ya what, if you beg and and beg and tell me im the best ill seriously consider it... lol. Im kidden... Kinda... :)

---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 PM ----------

Oh and in case you were wondering, here is what it turned out to look like. Also, I liked this better since it would animate the tiles/icons based on the adw animation settings, where as the main tutorial we all seen it would only animated like the text or whatever... Which, I didn't really like. But yea, here is what I did, I really should throw my icons online for you guys.

Hey, awesome walkthrough !! I'm trying to get everything working right now and I have a question - on your screen which box is how big ? (I'm talking grid size) I'm guessing (I'll use the last screen as an example), that Transformers is 2x2, The Office is 4x4, Flixster is 2x1. Am I correct ?

Anyway, thanks again for the How-To, it's pretty useful !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fliparsenal:
The easiest I've tried was with SSlauncher. I've been dying to try out this layout but it's as complicated as HUBS. Thankfully someone uploaded their Galaxy Note theme and all I had to do was load it up on SSlauncher and behold..everything was in place...well most of them anyway. I forgot which user it was but you can find his post on the official thread along with his zip file. It took me about half hour re-sizing the icons for a larger screen but it saved me a lot of time. HUBS users can also share their layout through the same method. I'll upload my .zip layout if anyone is interested

Yup! it goes width x height so you're right on all accounts!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] m.zambonelli:
Hi,

I'm sorry if I'm posting it on the wrong part of the forum, not sure if it's a General question or a Develop one.

I am still thinking if I want to buy the HTC One X or wait for the SGS3...all bring me wish the One X but the cpu.

SGS3 cpu tests are saying that SGS3 is more or less 20% faster then the HOX international version so I was wondering if maybe the cpu of HOX is more overclockable than that of the SGS3 or if anyway there is a way to bring the final performance of the 2 phone at a more or less the same level.

I would like an overall opinion so, for example, if the HOX is overclockable to increase the performance of a 20% BUT the SGS3 will be overclockable the same increasing the performance of a 20% too there will be anyway a lack of 20%

Shall I have some technical opinion on it (without creating fun boy flame or just "is more fashion" and so on...would like to speak only about the cpu)

Thanks :)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vallandil:
Well take a look at the Transformer Prime ( tegra3 device )

Yep overclock till 1700 1800 Mhz is possible.

So to be sort and not so much technical Yes it can be done
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 3rdeyer:
Even if the one x can be overclocked to make up for the performance difference to a stock SGS3 it would require a higher voltage, which in return kills battery life even quicker. That, plus the difference in battery capacity in favor of the SGS3 =not a good idea.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ShyamSasi:
You got Quad Core with 1.5Ghz why on earth you want to overclock again. You have enough speed to run almost anything on One X. SGS 3 chipset is different so you might see different in performance. There Meizu MX which beats SGS 3 in benchmarks. So this will never stop. New device will keep on coming with better speed, better power management. You can't keep up with it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wolfraim:
With a custom kernel you can overclock untill 999999999999999999 :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] samuel2706:
This goes in the question and answers section also, what does this have to do with developing, also why the heck would you want to overclock something that has more power than any other phone on the market right now?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kruppin:
To get a bigger (e-)penis ofc. ;) But yeah, this should've been in Q&A. And yes, OC isn't really needed, but instead underclock and undervolt is something some of us want. :) And maybe turn of one or two of the cores, but maybe this doesn't save that much power?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Cryosx:
Let's hope the phone gods grant us more battery life after underclocking/undervolting/disabling a core. And give us smooth performance while doing so :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] m.zambonelli:
Well of course that ther ewill be always something more powerfull but SGS3 is almost real so...for more or less the same price why choose a less powerful device...even if you don't really need that power (but I quite doubt about it)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] austin4913:
First of all, is your One X going to be an ATT phone? If so, the it has a dual core and not a quad...the quad core is the international version as it is not compatible with the LTE radio...in actuality, the Qualcomm Arm 7, s4 processor will usually out perform the quad core processor in the One XL...more does not mean faster...it would be rare to use all 4 processors at same time anyway...I plan to underfloor mine as 1.2 or so is fast enough without any lags on apps...and the HTC display is, by far, better than Samsung's super AMOLED display..sure it has high contrast but it's not as good...HTC also has beats audio and Samsung does not, unless HTC decides to license it to them, since HTC bought beats audio (51%) anyway...plus HTC is the original creator of android, not google...the first android was an HTC G1...Samsung should stick to TVs, where they do pretty well...but again, I am partial to HTC...and if u do get the galaxy 3, u will not be able to notice difference in speed unless u run benchmark tests, which are irrelevant in real world use of a phone...but it's personal preference...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] m.zambonelli:
Sadly I'm from UK so, in case, the HOX will be international Quadcore (AT&T seems faster from the test I saw).

Actually from some video I saw on youtube the interface of HOX seems to be laggy sometimes (like it takes time to scroll the homescreen and so on) and so I thought that a faster CPU would help.

I would like to bring to your attention this test http://www.mobileblog.it/post/20433...batte-tutta-la-concorrenza-nei-test-benchmark (sadly the page is in italian but the photo of the test are in english) and HOX int is ALWAYS so far away from GS3 :(

I also eared that the cpu of GS3 has less nm (so it's smaller) and so, in theory, will be even more overcloackable.

Can you confirm this for me please?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jonno12345:
Unless you're planning on using your phone to find the 500 billionth decimal of pi, or to find a cure for cancer, I think you're reading into it far too much.

Perhaps it IS a much faster phone in benchmarks, but that gives you no real idea in real world use. Try out a One X in a shop or something. Honestly, it's overkill power, I've never had a single lag on it, and I too was looking for the most powerful thing I could find.

Lets face it, a week after you get the most powerful phone, another one twice as good came out (My friend bought the SGS not long before I got my HOX and it was amazing when it came out), and at the end of the day, what are you -really- using your phone for that demands such power?

I read an article about the Plum Mobile Might. It's a knock-off Galaxy Note that is going to be released.

It has:

5 inch display

2,800mAh battery

5 megapixel camera with flash and a VGA on the front

650MHz processor

Dual SIM capabilities

And is running Android 2.3.6

Besides the processor, the specs aren't that bad at all. And for a proposed price tag of $180, it's looking even better.

To read more and check out some pictures of the device, go to Engadget
[Android General] ejatds:
fail. you can't do anything on a 650mhz processor,. $180 wasted.
[Android General] Product F(RED):
Agreed. You can buy a Nexus S for that much, and that runs ICS officially, and is faster than a lot of early dual core phones. Hell, you can get an Evo 3D for $180 nowadays.
[Android General] KayxGee1:
Over clocking is always an option. This gives a chance for everyone to be able to afford a decent android phone without paying the big bucks.
