so is this rom satisfactory for a daily driver? or are there still significant problems.....?

Im currently using Paranoid 1.9, so it's gonna have to be something really special to pry me away from PA..... This looks good though
[Galaxy S II Android Development] porkchopbolt:
It's definitely a daily driver. Most of the problems people experience are down to them thinking this is just like every other ROM installation - wipe, flash. It's not.

Read the OP first on installation. You need to mount data before flashing, else you won't get alliance OTA, superuser and a couple other things.

Once it's installed, I think you'll like it! It's kept me for two weeks so far and I'm a ROM junkie

You didn't mount data before installation. Read instructions.

Boot to recovery mount data and flash rom again

Why u not in Alliance rom!?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] churapa:
Almost there, it just needs the ability to get transparent statusbar and hide it on the lockscreen (I cropped it from the original screenshot). But it's excellent!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] trikpa:
I suppose all of you came to this rom from another sammy based, AOSP or AOKP...

how is the battery life compared to your previous rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] uppon2:
Another bump. HOW THE CRAP does this thread ever fall to the second page of development? This ROM pisses all over the other ROMs there. Where are all of the leaders huh! Need to stop following and start testing for yourself
[Galaxy S II Android Development] blade30p:
I hope you don't mind me asking but have you tried the Omega roms, I ask coz I've been using Omega ICS for about 5 months & it's now stalled as the Dev has abandoned it in favour of the GS3, so I want a new daily driver & you seem pretty passionate about this- any chancecould you give me a detailed comparison maybe pls?

how can i get the ics aokp style full screen calling screen.. ? i need it desperately.. plzz help..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] uppon2:
Omega used to be good with the original Gingerbread releases. Ever since ICS came out the ROMs have been rushed and bloated. Do you realise who these developers are that make Alliance? They have a completely different skill set and a lot more experience than that of Omega. The only thing that comes close to Alliance is Hyperdroid, however development has pretty much stopped there also. This is by far, hands down the best Samsung based ROM available right now. Don't hesitate :) - Remember we are here if you have any problems with installation or general questions :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cloud596:
Yeah Goldieking is back. How was your holiday.

^_^. Sorry being OOT.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] layercake87:
really like this rom, its butter smooth, has the best batterie life i've ever experienced and is overall stable. but i've also encountered some fc's and random hangs, very seldom but they are there ^^

i have one stupid question: how can i install the ota update (and where can i get it; and do i need it or is it already included in the latest rom version ? )

all in all its the best ics rom i've used til today :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spykedm:
Hi Blade, like you I was an Omega fan, because it is a nice rom, and actually has a slightly smaller footprint than Alliance. But unless Siberian picks up the torch, it is history. Indie has just walked away, basically flipping the bird to a nice bunch of people.

I'm still coming to grips with this rom as the install etc is quite different to anything else I've tried and there is plenty that I'm still figuring out, but so far I really like what I see. Great community and committed devs along with a nicely thought out and stable rom are icing on the cake.

Well done to the Alliance crew.

Give it a try, I think you will like it.

is modified stock rom considered custom ics or a stock?

I'm asking do I have to flash the odin thing if I'm on wanam rom or can I do it without odin?

if I need odin, can I flash a custom ics like ressurection and then flash this one?

I can't use odin at the moment so I'm trying to do it without it :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Siberian Tiger:
Put the rom in your internal sdcard ,backup your apps settings etc,boot into recovery make a nandroid backup ,wipe factory reset and install this rom!!!

Just gave this rom a try. I am impressed excellent work Goldie congrats!!!

Especially i like the S3 system UI.

Really impressive congrats to the devs :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Android Development] trikpa:
that's not the problem, this confuses me...

Coming from Custom ICS :

Just put the ROM on SdCard , if you dont already have ROM Settings in ROM Customizer then extract and install THIS as a system app with ROM Customizer. Scroll down in ROM Customizer to Rom Settings and setup wipe/no wipe etc and install zip from sd with the app.

If it wont flash, wipe in recovery, MOUNT DATA, then flash from recovery.

Once flashed open superuser once before using any apps requiring root!!

Camera may not open first time. Kill the task and reopen it.

I recommend wiping as this is a jump from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4.

Please do not report issues without wiping first.

Any issues with flashing ...... follow the guide below first.

Coming from a stock rom:

Flash this HERE

and come back here and follow the above : no brain guide

so, can I just flash or do I have to prepare my phone? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Siberian Tiger:
That was the way i installed the rom.If this way don't work for you then follow the dev's instructions to the letter ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] grzesdroid:
rom is great, but I have a few problems. Automatic brightness does not work well. In some places, is a white background and white subtitles, even after installing the theme cleaner, then install the s3 theme. And I wanted to ask whether it will be updated soon?

Hi Sahib,

Is there any other mirror for the updater script, the dev host server is not working
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
No brightness issue here. First anyone mentioned of that. Can u be more specific than "doesnt work well"?

The white on white is few and far between now. Not found any that would be a big issue though.

What exactly do you want updating? Im not going to jump to every firmware like some rom makers. There is little to no benefit. I will change when I have finished new features or there is a big change between firmware versions

Maybe this was already answered, but still, I'm gonna try.

I'm on JB AOKP, I would like to go back to ICS, I tried once, but I don't know why, after flashing ICS rom the phone didn't boot and I had to trust on my nandroid backup to come back to JB...

So, what I wanna know, to go back to ICS do I need to flash an official firmware and, just then, flash an ICS custom?

S3 ripple lock not working

Thanks for this amazing ROM. I unknowingly desabled the ripple lockscreen and now its not working even if I set the ripple lockscreen in Alliance settings. Any help on this would be appreciated

Also is there any 3g to 2g toggle available in this ROM

Edit: enabling the live lockwall bought the ripple lock back thanks

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dampierre:
Maybe some people liked this rom, but it was the worst rom I've ever used. I did all the wipe's. Even you forget to add a script to mount data for aliance settings app. Scrolling lag is unbearable. Sorry but it was terrible.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
Did you change the kernel or using the default one?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Lolololol.....if you flash with the app like youre supposed to you dont need to manually wipe or mount so I didnt "forget" anything!!! Youre the first to have such a bad experience so personally I feel its you at fault not the rom. Theres even a link to an odin rom to get a real clean install and then flash with the app. Guess you were too lazy. Anyway...thanks for the errrrrrrr feedback....hahaha :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
IForgot to say.....robbie did a perfect fix for ripple wallpaper on note last week. Will upload tonight :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
nice one Goldie! can u also add the home button delay fix? sometimes when i press it, it activates voice control app and its kinda annoying.. thanks for your effort
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Denebola79:
Sometimes i am truly amazed at how little distinction that people like you. It would be more instructive if, instead of just criticizing, say what's wrong with the rom in your phone to share with others and find a solution ... remember that here you get everything for free and then be a little more grateful to the development is the MINIMUM!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] plotinus:
disagree with you. This is the best rom I've tried and I've tried a lot. Gb was excellent and for me this is the only ics rom stable as Gb. I don't have scrolling lag. People complaints about white on white letters and it's just because they don't follow instructions. I flash it through ota app and I haven't had any problems. Thanks goldieking for making my s2 a piece of "I want that. Why my s2 doesn't do that?"

:D

SGS2

Why u not in Alliance rom!?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:

can you please include in the upgrade a lower delay for multitasking to appear?

like the one in wanam's rom would be perfect

thank you goldie!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Ok...fixed ripple gallery in ota from Robbie. You will need to set your wallpaper again.

Update 1 updated to include it.

Fixed S3 theme v2 so it themes phone properly.

And had good progress with teardrop lock. I turned "show touch" in developer settings on so you can see how you control it....

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
Can u also fix the position of the 3G and H+ icons in the status bar when mobile data is on? Its position now is above the signal bar icons, i think it would be better if you put it on the left side just like in the s3.. I'll go and look for a screenshot to explain myself better :D

Edit: i added the image of what i wanted it to be.. Can u make it that way or tell me what to do to edit it coz in the current s3 theme, the arrows overlaps the signal bars..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] G1032:
Same issue here guys from my post on Aug 18th. Just reading through this thread again and I see the issue is still present. Pity. Minor issue I suppose but it's very irritating.

This does not work for me. Tried that a couple of weeks ago and the image was still distorted. Deleted the image that was already in data/data/com.cooliris.media/files, dropped in my own image, changed the name to zzzzzz_lockscreen_wallpaper.jpg, set the permissions to what they were for the original lockscreen wallpaper and image is still distorted. Something I've not seen on any other ROM I've flashed, whether it be a Sammy ROM, AOKP, CM10 or whatever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
PLEASE at least read this one page....flash update 1 again...set your lock wall with gallery...be happy

[Galaxy S II Android Development] X82X:
Howdy. Hope you can help me with a few things. Firstly when I get a Txt the screen doesn't light up. Nor

Is there any on screen or lock screen notification.

Another minor issue is that the bottom App bar contains only 3 apps. But most launchers have 4. Any ideas why this is?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
No because of the ripple overlay. If it was totally transparent you wouldnt see any ripple

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
I assume you wiped before flashing? Ive not had any of those things
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Sir, browser freezing could be happenning if you restored internet bookmarks from CM9/10, any AOSP or AOKP roms. About contacts, try to clear data in contacts and contacts storage.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
Guys for all the fc and freezing problems you most likely need to wipe data

Hi. I got tilted recent apps thumbnails after I flashed the S3 theme.

I just want to verify whether this is a bug or not.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
You can call it a bug Xp

this is what happend when you combine stock multitasking ui with sense multitasking ui .

And if you want to change the clock color, you need to download theme cleaner before you flash S3 theme in order to have the new rom settings apk which there, you can change clock color.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hikarugo:
The combination is done on purpose isn't it? It comes with the theme's systemui.

I actually prefer the stock samsung one.

Toggles work very well & really like it.

I'm using dual boot but in my phone this rom is the first!! I think u can't use rom costumizer to flash it like second rom (u can only if its the first), the only way is to flash by going into recovery and select the dual booting options and flash the rom normally like any other one!! This also applies to any update or mod you want to install in the future u have to do manually!
