Thanks for the tips. I've installed AutoKiller Memory Optimizer since, mainly to check on current values of the minfree settings and the oom-priorities of the different processes. I saw only values below 20, which did not seem like the proper settings. I've updated these to 6/8/60/40/60

The 60 for 'Secondary server' is a an attempt to demote Service-only processes somewhat (I feel this class of process is overused). With so many apps running as a service without doing anything (looking at you, Facebook), I would prefer some of them to perish in memory cleanups instead of the ones I might actually return to in my multitasking.

Another topic: I've been having the SMS notification issues as well. I use Enhanced SMS & Caller ID and sometimes it announces the SMS fine, but the default system notification icon will not appear. The SMS will be visible in my inbox and Apex also displays a notification count. This happens sporadically. In addition to that, I have had text messages arrive later than expected (no announcement, no notification, no SMS), most notably, confirmation text messages from my bank (which generally arrive almost instantly). Again, this happens sporadically and I believe I have not missed an SMS entirely (they were all just several seconds or minutes late).

Also, the slow caller recognition is an issue for me too. Interestingly, Enhanced SMS & Caller ID announces the caller name correctly before the phone apk shows the name of the caller. I'm unsure as to whether this issue is also related to my memory issues/tweaking. I'll chime in later if performance improves here.

Extra info: I have about 600 contacts and have Whatsapp, haxSync, Skype, and Facebook (And of course Google) as sync accounts.

Great idea!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
U have the search key to ics recent app mod in this rom? Does this Rom have Chinese input? Does it have the dock(soft key) like In the aokp Rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
It's a version of the Recent App mod modified to retain the Search key through the long-press.

I'm not sure what you mean by dock as I don't run AOKP, but likely not as it's CM9 based.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
The dock I mean was like the galaxy nexus soft key, (back,home and recent app)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] etp23:
Flashed this over latest cm9 and worked nothings gone well wen the come out with the ics reloaded mod for the notification bar will it work on this or it it andramaudes based??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
Yes you released it! :D! Seriously, congratulations on all your hard work! I'm really glad to see your work come so far. Also the other things on the "to do list" are really good ideas too. I would love to have GB style app switching on this ROM, i find the native ICS task switcher to be too slow at times.

It's so good to see real creative drive coming back to the HTC Vision now :). This will be the first ROM i flash once i have time again after my exams. Once again, good on you blk_jack for all your amazing work!

Edit: One suggestion i have continually forgotten to mention is to add the option of applying Edkeys' radio-related patches as an option during the install process. I think a lot of people use those patches and they do seem to be useful . Anyway that's just my little suggestion, keep up the great work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hai_Duong:
Thank u for this awesome ROM :D Its very smooth but compared to UI Tablet b38 ROM battery drain is quite High can u import there Kernel here or do a battery tweak/mod ??

I use the app Battery Drain to see how high the drain is.

Display On with wifi:

-Mimicry ROM: 18%-21%

-UI Tablet MOD B38 ROM: 6%-10%
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tarroyo:
Very nice indeed, Just when I thought Andromadus couldn't get any better!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
If the battery stats haven't been wiped since you flashed that may be the issue. I get 1-2% an hour idle and 5-6hours screen on time. Simply put, very good battery for ICS roms on our device.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] palmwangja:
Wow, this ROM looks promising, thanks!

Does this rom read "my phone number" out correctly from configuration (settings - about phone - status)? one of my apps requests that... and it's critical.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wolek76:
Finally, an ICS ROM that makes me want to flash it (even though I do prefer sense... ), thank you :)

May I suggest though that you'd provide MD5 check sums, just to avoid issues with bad downloads etc...

Another question is, do I have to flash gapps after install since you have provided it? or is that an option?

Also, perhaps a stupid question, but will this install do anything to my SD card? I dont fancy moving 26GB of data (never used supercharger or swap, and I'm worried it would ask to format/convert my card?)

Thanks for reading :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fr3akBut:
Excellent work, I would love to try this ROM.

I have a feature request (although it probably won't be popular). Would it be possible to get this rom as a zip with the boot, system, and data .img's so people with fried emmc's can extract it to sdcard and boot with 'fastboot boot boot.img'?

I have tried using bootmanager to create the .img's from cm9 / andro, but the resulting files fail to boot.

Sorry if it's a little OT, but congratulations on a very nice looking ROM, and a very professional OP, and development process.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
Yes. If it doesn't, add it yourself: Phone app>*menu button*>Options>Additional Settings>My Phone Number

If u want google apps (including play store), then yes u will have to flash gapps.

No, it will not do anything to your sd card or anything additional other than flashing the rom+gapps from the sd card.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrvanx:
I made the switch from sense, the only thing i miss really is the clock widget (although Fancy Widgets will cater for that) and the friendstream widget (yet to find something like it, suggestions anyone?).

This ROM is working well so far, tons of customising options etc... good work to all.

EDIT:: One suggestion for the ROM, bearing in mind I have been out of the loop for a while with this stuff but..., On previous ROMs I used (Virtuous) using OCUV Beater 2 1.7 I had the option to UV or OV aswell as the virtuous OC option (which is in this ROM....good stuff). Is this a big issue to add??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Pantherx12:
Whats the camera preview like on this rom ( find it incredibly blurry on all other ICS roms)

Pictures would be lovely if anyone has any.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mirko935:
Flashed this without a full wipe over jerl92's CM9 and it works a treat, also seems to be a little smoother.

A problem I encountered is that the phone freezes almost immediately if I put the CPU clock to 1.7 or 1.8 GHz. I suppose you set lower voltages than him. It doesn't matter much, though, since I won't be running it that high, just thought you should know.

Also, the wake CRT animation doesn't always work, but I've seen it in MexDroid too, so I guess it's an Andromadus problem.

Regarding the Quick Torch, maybe you could make an option to let it run until it gets turned off manually instead of shutting it off as soon as the power button is released. I think I'd find it more useful that way.

All in all, it seems like a great ROM. Thumbs up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
OMG, just another andromadus kang.

;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrvelvet:
PDroid

As another feature request I'd love to see PDroid patches included (or even just available).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] firetiger:
Is it just me or is the centre clock mod gone? o.o other than that, great rom, smooth and customizable. I would like the optimus 4X lockscreen mod to be added, which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24811293
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Can you add customizable apps to the lockscreen with the optimus 4x lockscreen?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dxaxn:
After facing my caller id problem I desided super wipe and start again without any app. No luck. I can see id for half hour or one and than no more till next restart. And that without using phone.

I'm losing SMS with stock app and with gosms as well. Again after restart its working for while and most of them I'm losing during browsing net. Ghostlysms catching them, double notification don't bother me if I'm safe.

Not sure if my observations help and please don't take it in bad way, becouse I really like this rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
Personally, as far as governors and clocks go, I generally set mine up using Daemon Controller to config VOC, and I use 1024 max with interactive for screen on, and 768 max with conservative for screen off. My battery usage with screen off seems good, it is smooth and responsive when it's on, and my phone pulls caller id fairly quick. I only have google contacts, though.

No SMS lost that I am aware of. Or at least, no one has mentioned anything to me. ;)

I stopped using Facebook app recently, and just started using the mobile website. Seems faster and less prone to f up any pics or status I post. :banghead:

I understand that you probably cannot bundle swype, but what about putting in the swype beta installer? I believe you have to have a beta account to install using that apk... not sure how swype would feel about it, though.

Just some input on this awesome rom. Love it. Looking fwd to next version.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] =JKT=:
Woah woah, good point! I just gotta say that 68% of the reason I flashed this rom is because of the Dr. Strangelove reference, and 12% because blk_jack is canadian.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
I can't seem to be able to send MMS on wifi... not sure if this is ROM or APN issue. I need to see if I can find the Tmo apn settings.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
This is a confirmed issue with wifi calling active.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ditamae:
I believe so. I didn't actually change the lockscreen weather icons, but I got as far as seeing an option to change mods without reflashing the ROM in AROMA.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Half correct ;)

You can add/remove tweaks & mods by reflashing but as for installed apps, you need to re-flash the ROM for that. I may change this in the future, but it was easier to extract everything as there are a lot of files that you'd have to restore depending on what you've changed.

David, out of curiosity, why wouldn't you want to re-flash the ROM to add/remove specific apps?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
Hey, I was just looking at your screenshots, and I wanted to know, have you modified the DPI or made the fonts smaller or something? I'm asking cuz the BMW notification shows you the full stat for uptime and ETA, while my fonts are too big or something :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ditamae:
Ah, okay that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying that (though it wasn't my question originally)... in my case, I was curious about changing tweaks/mods without reflashing the entire ROM because I didn't want to lose the lib-ril files from the zip EdKeys put together. And, for some reason, ICS didn't play nice with a bunch of my Helvetica fonts. I finally found a combo of regular/bold/italics that worked, and if possible, I didn't want to switch them again. No big deal really. And frankly, I look forward to another clean install with your next update now that I'm familiar with Mimicry. This ROM has breathed new life into my old G2. God, I need to put the energy drinks down. ;)

Andromadus Mimicry v1.1.1 - June 27, 2012

= Changelog =

DSPManager is now optional to install

Raised maximum sleep freq for default Virtuous OC Daemon profile

Merged in patch for missing voicemail notifications

Merged in patches for MMS app to prevent hanging and missed notifications

Fix for delayed mic on call answer

Added EdKeys' Radio lib-ril/gps .so updater

Fixed tethering/portable hotspot DHCP issue

Merged in CM9 fix for user lockscreen icons

Merged up to CM9/Andromadus repo head to CM9 RC1

Updated NovaLauncher to 1.2.1

Wow, 10 days already! My excuse is that I was on vacation for a week and just got back yesterday. Unfortunately there aren't any new major features added (yet!), but this should address some of the issues people are facing now, as well as get us back up to sync with the CM9 repo. As of this build we're now slightly newer than their CM9 RC1 release. Hurray!

Expect more frequent releases in the future with even more features and additions.

Download here [link]

One small additional note.. I usually have a number of individuals test the ROMs before they're released en masse. That didn't happen this time because I wanted to get something out to everybody sooner than later. As such, I haven't been able to test everything I would've liked to (I don't have voicemail, I haven't suffered from "missed" SMS messages, etc). Feedback is always welcome, however if there is a recurring issue I will update the OP with it and work towards a revision release to address it immediately (if possible) -- rather than having people post about it ad nauseam ;)

Thanks for everybody's understanding and continued feedback!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
Toronto represennnnnnt!!! BRAAAPP.

sooo.. uhhh.. full wipe required?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Read the FAQ section I added to the OP.

(no ;))
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
next question. how do i buy a DZ ICS TELUS brotha' a beer?

thanks for your hard work. :highfive:

And another:

Do we have to re-run the RIL matcher again?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
Lovely sir. Thank you very much.

I have a few questions ( as usual :P )

Will the Virtuous OC daemon remain intact if I install this over my current install, but forget to select VOC?

Will I have to install gapps again?

Will my Nova Launcher settings stay intact if I select Nova?

I'm not sure I have any other questions for now, but I'll be sure to continue badgering over time.

Also, not sure if it's worth a feature addition, but would it be complex to implement an internet over USB passthrough? I think like the ones on the HTC ROMs where the phone can use the host internet when hooked up over USB.

Also, although I mentioned it in a PM, I figured for the benefit of those who can probably give some ideas, would it be hard to implement adhoc connections over wifi so I can share my data card internet to my phone over wifi since I don't have a router here? Not important though.

Once again, thanks for the new release :)

---

Also, I REALLY like the page number for when the 1.1.1 discussion starts. Nice addition. You don't usually get that 'round here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
for nova, make a titanium backup.

then restore it when you finish your update.

then update to the latest nova again.

should solve any settings getting dumped.

as for gapps, yes you should re-install. i find it fixes a lot of issues with pushing new rom files to the phone, regardless of whether it's required or not.

sometimes the gapps won't even show up and your emails won't sync if you don't re-install it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Yeah just to clarify the upgrade process. I've *never* had nova reset it's settings on me, I just flash new roms over it while keeping nova selected in Aroma and it works perfectly. Even if you update it between rom versions it will function as expected.

You no longer need to flash EdKeys lib-ril/gps so updater since it's included in Aroma. Just make sure you select Yes when you see the screen.

When you flash this rom it will overwrite your Virtuous OC Daemon settings if you've set them manually.

Make sure you always flash Gapps over every single mimicry release. The installer formats /system, and gapps are system apps. Unless you wipe /data (or do a full wipe), you will not lose any settings or installed apps.

As I've stated before, I almost never wipe /data. I just flash over new versions, select all my old settings in Aroma (they're remembered by default unless you wipe /data) and flash Gapps after. No wipes, no data loss at all :) Aroma will also flash /cache and dalvik cache so you simply just need to flash Mimicry over with gapps.

(If you DO however notice weird glitches, lag or other anomalies I recommend doing a full wipe)

Oh and of course.. Always make a backup before flashing a ROM. You never know, bad things can happen, even to the nicest people ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KyraOfFire:
Now the voicemail notification won't go away at all even though I don't have any voicemail :D

thanks for the update :-)

Edit: add log cat from boot -> voicemail notification -> dial voicemail to hear "you have no new messages"

it is .docx because the .txt size is larger than forum attachment limit.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] c00ller:
Will flash 1.1.1 first thing in the morning. By the way, putting "Discussion for v1.1.1 starts on page 40: [link]" in the OP is just brilliant.. makes it soooo easy for new users to find relevant discussion.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
Hey guys, just a question. How many apps do you all have installed, and approximately how much space does it take on /data ..? Cuz I have ~186 apps installed ( booting 1.1.1 now ) and it seems my data is 1.1GB or something like that with 157MB free.. Seems like an awful lot. I must say though, I have no apps installed on my sdcard. It's far too slow for games and stuff. So I'm thinking there's some leftover data from places and apps and all.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tarroyo:
Will be flashing this 2morrow, So now that EdKeys .so updater is in aroma installer, you don't have to wipe after installing the cm9 radio?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Same here, can't figure out how to get rid of it. Also, my youmail voicemail number keeps resetting to the t-Mobile default number after a reboot. Probably reading from the SIM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
There is a screen that asks you if the .19 radio has been installed, and you can choose to install the EdKeys .so updater. As long as you've done it once, you wouldn't have to do it again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] csolanol:
Is someone using .19 radio with Movistar/Orange/Vodafone Spain?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
I read that if this happens, send yourself a voicemail. Call your voicemail (eg. hold #1, etc.)>send a voicemail (which ever option that is)>dial your number. After you get a new voicemail, delete it, and it'll remove the stuck voicemail notification.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tarroyo:
You misunderstood me, I was asking about the CM9/AOKP zip file not the .19 radio file itself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 2stardiver:
should quick torch work with 1.1.1 ?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martinpescatore:
Hi,

just installed and I've noticed that wireless and network indicator are not "ics blue" but they stay greyed out even if data connection is available.

my mistake, apologies for the stupid post
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Yes it should, works fine for me here. It uses the torch app though so you need that app in order for it to work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
I was hoping to avoid the whole Android is updating boot routine. Just installing 1.1.1 now which addresses the problem anyway. Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ronmq:
I'm using .19 radio with Movistar, but I was problems regarding the switching between data and wifi with this radio and CM9 and MIUI builds.

Edkeys did a specific RIL for this radio that solved it.

Hey guys, the voicemail patches Flinny merged are here and here. It's a patch from GB, though, so I'm not sure how this may work for most people. Feedback is needed.

Page 40 & FAQ in OP
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
1.1.1 installed and so far so good. I am still not getting voicemail notifications but it could be a result of having voicemail to text service. My assumption is Rogers disabled voicemail notifications to avoid repetition of notifications (get sms notification when vm is left).

I also installed EdKeys' ril mod, I don't use wifi calling but I am on the .19 radio. Will report back on signal differences.

Finally, I didn't see an option in Aroma regarding installation of the DSP manager? Doesn't matter to me, I quite like it.

Thank you again blk_jack for your excellent work and support.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
It was at the end of the last page of options. I selected no DSP. Very happy camper.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] csolanol:
Just asking because i have problems with gps, loosing location after five minuttes. Wonder if updating to .19 radio and flashing edkeys ril match patch will solve the problem. And, of course, wanter to know about signal strength.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
I guess I was just overly keen to get this up and running and missed it :). Why don't you like DSP?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Thanks!

You have to scroll down in the Custom App configuration screen. The one where you can select between launchers, music players & boot animations. It's at the very bottom :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
You'd think it would just be common sense. I know how many times I've scrolled through endless pages looking for relevant discussions on a new ROM version. I also added a link to the installation FAQ underneath the changelog to hopefully answer some questions before they're asked ;)
