Question and observation:

Is anybody getting data on 3g/CDMA-auto prl? No matter what I do web, maps, speedtests, don't work.

I've tried both .9 and .19 radios. I seem to have faster 4g on .9 but that's inconsistent.

Bluetooth seems to connect fine for me on both radios. But I have had the audio drop others have reported buy I think I had that on GB rooms/kernels too.

I did find that after I open maps and let it find my location and then back out of it, the location and weather work in the lock screen.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Scooter Scott:
Yes mine works when I choose that.

This is amazing....on 4G I now get the same battery life I did on 3G on my previous ROM and 3G is amazing on this new ROM. Loving it!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] OffcerClancy:
Thank you for all your work- this is a premium product.

One issue: l can't connect to my home vpn and VLC Stream & Convert streams audio only, cannot get video to stream. I believe issues may be related. I do not have these problems with the Bamf leak or Thunder 1.6. Odd thing is I can do both using my tablet which is running Thor's ICS & CM 9; I can also access vpn & stream video with my tablet when tethered to my T-bolt on Liquid's ICS.

Any thoughts? Plus, I don't want to go back to Bamf leak.

Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gOOglEy03:
So... Do I have to flash a different radio to use this ROM or can I use the stock radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] moonlightinwhite:
I don't think you HAVE to, but the latest (7.x) LTE radio was released (well, leaked) with ICS and I think the general consensus is that it's much better. Though a lot of folks are using the hybrid radio (latest LTE and .19 CDMA).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] plambda:
No setting - only wanted to indicate that I didn't test out bluetooth on a call.

Didn't do anything special, just paired with my audio device (TuneLink), it connected, done. Looks like it may not work well with other devices though, so YMMV.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
The picture quality from the camera looks grainy, even at 8mp....hmmm
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sithdroid2187:
Is anyone having issue with the lockscreen not locking? My screen turns off (either on it's own or if I press the power button) and when I go to turn it back on, the screen is not locked. A reboot of course fixes it, but I should not have to reboot for the screen to lock.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FirePsych:
There's a setting somewhere for the delay between putting the screen to sleep and it locking I think. Is Always not locking or just sometimes?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sithdroid2187:
Just sometimes. I restarted my phone and it is working now. It was working all morning as well and then it just stopped locking.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
Anyone else getting choppy scrolling in Opera Mobile with ICS? its perfectly smooth in Gingerbread. Tried both gpu acceleration on and off.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] singalongjonl:
Anyone else having issues with the apps. When I try to open any app most times I get a blank screen and the option to wait or fc the app comes. If I wait it will stay blank, if I fc sometimes it will open the app correctly.

One app I can't open is Battery Callibration. Also Hide It Pro can't find my root and won't work. Issues are spread out through some apps.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] quickdraw86:
Yeah. I use opera for GB, but it seemed to run poorly on ICS, so I switched to chrome. Chrome is awesome and works well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bwangster12:
Anyone actually able to get Google Now working well? I tried it on the Jmod version when it was pre-installed and no matter what I did, the mic would not pick up my voice on first try. It would beep as if it were listening, then nothing would register. Then I'd have to press the mic button again.

I installed the Liquid version and installed Google Now myself... and still no go.

I just installed the DeSensed rom and Google Now seems to be picking up my voice on first attempt. Just sucks, because I'd rather be using Liquid's ICS rom.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FirePsych:
Take a look at

Settings -->Lockscreen -->Lockscreen Timeout

and the other settings on that screen.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] recDNA:
I love the mod that allows display of actual numeric value of signal .... like mine is at -77. I use the option in tshed. I don't know if this mod is possible in ics nor if it would be accurate if there.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keeverw:
This rom has it too.

System Settings>>>Interface>>>Statusbar>>>Signal>>>Signal Style>>>Show w/dBm

It is accurate except when on 4G. On 4G it shows "0dBm" all the time. But on 3G it's accurate and on 1X and on wifi.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
I had a nice-looking widget that I used for a while to display the actual level.

I do remember from my ERIS days, running CyanogenMod ROMs, that enabling the number readout was a cause of extremely high battery drain. I don't know if that was a glitch or poor coding at the time it was implemented or if it was just the way it is in regards to dynamically keeping that number updated.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keymastr:
I read everything but am wondering what the best radio is... KIDDING!

I love this ROM. My poor tbolt has new life while I wait for the opportunity to upgrade. Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kris07:
I'm having this issue as well and those settings were unable to help me. I believe this is also causing my battery to die faster. It happened last night and it's happening now as well. When happened last night, after a few minutes I wasn't able to have a data connection and soon after that the phone rebooted. Only self reboot I've experienced thus far.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
Any alternate keyboards that people can recommend ? I really miss the arrow keys that the HTC keyboard includes.... I saw an option for using the volume up/down keys but can't see how that would help go left/right !! :D

I do have FlexT9 from Amazon but I don't get the "Choose text input" option when long-pressing in a field. That keyboard is ENABLED too.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keeverw:
SwiftKey-3 hands down best android keyboard of all time.

It has an option to display the arrows if you want. The predictive part is so good its almost scary. You end up typing very little on this keyboard because it predicts so well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
New bug I found, could just be on Google's end, received this error message upon PlayStore updating my apps then trying to update some unknown application

Also: I'm running a battery test on this rom's battery life - check it out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1882903
[Thunderbolt Android Development] moonlightinwhite:
+1 for Swiftkey, though I'm not sure if I'd pay for it or not. I got it free when it was an Amazon Free App of the Day almost a year ago :p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
Duplicate it before calling it a bug.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gammaxgoblin:
If only there were some sort of beginning announcement where one could list information that could be scanned with one's eyes to extract information....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bwangster12:
I was getting some of these from time to time... but then fixed permissions and it was working again.

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 PM ----------

Just read carefully through the OP for both threads.

Liquid 1.5 is a much more stripped down, simplified experience with Trebuchet Launcher, no Google Now, no Awesome Beats, etc.

Liquid JMod version took Liquid 1.5 and added tweaks, such as Google Now, Awesome Beats, etc.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
I did the same a long time ago :D but for the longest time, it wouldn't download, almost as if the publisher had pulled it from Amazon or something. Just tried it again a few minutes ago and it downloaded/installed. Haven't used it yet, but I always did like it in the past.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] pogibry:
I'm not reporting a bug, just sheer happiness. I downloaded and installed this last night and OMFH is this one smooth-donkey rom! I was skeptical because the other ICS roms I played with on my TBolt were sketchy at best. Yours, smooth as the one you made for GB. Spot on, team. Spot on! :good:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toklas:
just reporting back after a day of use......(only one issue to report)

1. no gps issues... actually locks on really fast.

2. very smooth and fast.

3. data connection - ive tried both the .19 radios and the mixed .09 .19 radio combo that some people have had good luck with and I seem to still be getting the issue with data dropping and not coming back until i cycle airplane mode or reboot. I have done a full wipe install a couple of times and still same issue.(triple wipe of everything and superwipe)

all in all this is some masterful work guys..... and sooo much appreciated.... will be making a donation..

Is anyone else getting a DRM error when trying to use the Hulu Plus app?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] turneja:
I am
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bradg24:
Maybe the same bug Netflix has..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rafaelvelasquez2:

I'm using flex t9, in ICS you long hold the space bar to change keyboards.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] warmonster:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
D'oh ! Didn't know that. Thanks !
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kronofile:
Other than Minimalistic Text not knowing where I am, I'm having a lot of fun with this. Great work!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
Camera keeps stopping. Worked for a while. Anyone find a fix for this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] NComrade:
I think that the more people who donate the better chances that we'll have support going forward (at least until it is fully stable) :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boythatkills:
Can't get 3g to work.. don't get 4g in my location (only sporadically), so it's either 1x or WiFi. It will show 3g, but I can't get data over it. Then, it will just kick back down to 1x. Went back to my old rom, 3g is working fine. Wish it would work with this. :( Using .19 radios for both CDMA and LTE, since I do only use CDMA/EvDO Auto and no LTE.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FirePsych:
Nice West Side Story quote.

I had the same problem on. 19 radio and swapped to. 9 radio. I'm on 3g now and typing and sending this from my TB, so I'm thinking it works...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] leoingle:
I think I found a BT bug. When it is connected to my Jawbone Jambox, the screen turns off after 30 seconds and the music stops after 60 seconds, as soon as i hit the power button and wake it up it starts playing again. It does do this when the speakers are plugged in. I am about to try it out on my Kenwood head unit and see if it does the same thing.

** UPDATE **

It works with my Kenwood unit, BUT it is fine for about 20 seconds, then skips and stutters for about 5 seconds, then goes back to normal, then after being normal for 20 seconds, it does it again for about 5 seconds. I even used a stopwatch and timed it and it consistent, but it does stay playing after a minute unlike my Jawbone jambox.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
Ha! Installed Newts camera patch and it fixed it !!! http://db.tt/6RWQDjnv

I just had my phone reboot while using chrome. I know this is known, but after the reboot my battery went from 86 to 29. Is that known?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SikYou:
Did this fix the camcorder also?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
It worked for10 secs lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loonie01:
Has anybody use the wifi tether on this rom? If so whar are yoir settings.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mudavo:
Great ROM Liquid and Jester! Just donated to you both. Hoping for future development and support!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] AntiAppel:
I had this happen to me running the BAMF release. I had to reboot a few times, and each time the battery got lower and lower. Eventually the phone wouldn't even turn on. I thought I had fried my battery or something, as using the stock battery the phone operated just fine. What I ended up having to do was charge the battery itself, I assume you could charge it with the phone off to get the same results, over night and the next day that battery worked like magic.

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

After a full day or so of usage here are my findings:

-Battery life is amazing, 9-11 hours of moderate usage and still at ~50% (I do use an extended battery though)

-Much faster than anything Sense based, though I think that's common with AOSP ROMs.

-Google Now is just awesome, haven't tested the voice aspect of it, though I have heard mixed results.

-I've gotten a few random reboots, this could just be the ROM and my applications sorting things out after restoring data from the BAMF release, not really sure.

-Not positive that I have dropped data, although this morning when I woke up I had zero notifications, and I usually have at least a few e-mails, not to mention any data usage was really slow if working at all. Turning data off then back on fixed it right away.\

-When I use Wi-Fi my phone locks up. This has always happened when running AOSP ROMs so I doubt it is release specific. It works fine on my girlfriends phone, so if anyone has any idea's about that I would greatly appreciate it.

-The Gmail app was not deleting my e-mail from the server, but this was fixed by deleting the apps data and cache, uninstalling and re-installing the app.

All-in-all it's a great ROM and I can due without the Wi-Fi as long as I get a fast interface, and an enjoyable experience, Job well done developers.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SikYou:
lol My camcorder pretends to be working, will open and looks like it is recording but when I push the button to stop recording....CRASH ;) Not hat that I care, I don't even use camcorder.

Alright, my attempt at explaining the bug I have. When I am on a webpage, XDA for example, and I click on a thumbnail, the image appears but its off center of the page so I can't see the entire image. When I scroll over to view the full image, it disappears. Anyone else? I've done all of the cache clearing and permission fixing that one can do. I actually had this bug on jesters build then completely wiped everything and flashed this to the same problem.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] OffcerClancy:
Can someone pls confirm that they have used the vpn feature successfully? Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
Didn't work... holding the space bar got me a whole bunch of spaces! :D

I haven't seen a kernel developer acknowledge this yet but it's behavior I've seen with EVERY non-stock kernel I've used.

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

Anyone know how to change the "lock" image/icon on the lockscreen? I've added apps so that all (5) spots are filled but the lock doesn't match the look at all. You can't edit that one either.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
You have to hit save on the bottom right. Looks like a floppy disk.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mgenova:
Go into apps menu and clear data for the camera. Mine force closed after using the front camera and clearing camera data resolved the issue
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
I'm a bit upset, I looked at my screen and it said "Charged" then I booted back into recovery and it went down to 98% and stayed there, I waited a good 5 minutes and still no 100%. So I went and wiped the Battery stats anyway - idk what to do.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DrunkUncas:
Ignore it. It's a non-issue.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Scratch that, I got a full battery and got it to wipe :beer:

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ----------

My only issue right now is that the bloody camera keeps adjusting my screen brightness without returning it back to normal. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
I tried that. Still closed until I flashed the patch.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RetributionSK:
I updated my post(previous page) to include the soft key back light bug
[Thunderbolt Android Development] AntiAppel:
Another thing I found that isn't working is turning of the sound when you take a picture. I unchecked the box, and it still makes that sound.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] onestoploser:
I turned off the sound on the camera and it works fine.

The only complaint I have with this ROM is one that's been stated by many others. The white screen on some apps is driving me crazy. I fixed permissions and it fixed it for a while, but now it is happening again on occasion. So far it's happened to me with Gmail, Boat Browser and Rage of Bahamut. I don't use Facebook so I can't comment on that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] theRamenNoodle:
I'm also getting flaky wifi. Sometimes, the wifi icon will be gray instead of blue. Sometimes it's a video-streaming app that is continually buffering or pausing.

I have a fantastic Internet connection and an Apple Time Capsule router. This shouldn't be happening this much!

In case this LiquidSmooth ICS didn't overwrite the kernel, I had LeanKernel 6.1 or 6.2 before this. I haven't flashed anything else since getting ICS.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
You both are correct about the wifi being flaky, it's the same with the 4G too, best fix is airplane mode on, then off again - should work as a temp fix for now

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

Funny thing regarding the camera, I tried restoring the HTC camera and it totally failed. Lolol, newb at its finest :p:D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Scooter Scott:
Had my first random reboot this morning. Phone was in my pocket and I felt the little vibrate upon startup. Pulled out my phone and saw that white HTC screen. I had been running off of 4G for the last 24 hours and not using wifi. Haven't installed any new apps since then. Only thing I can remember is there were some app updates that installed automatically.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] turneja:
Occasionally when I turn the screen off and then try and turn it right back on, it will stay off and act like it's frozen. Won't let me turn it back on for 30 seconds or so. Anyone else experience this and find a solution?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bwangster12:
For what it's worth... Google Now absolutely, positively does not recognize your voice upon first launching it on either the Liquid 1.5 or the Liquid JMod 2.7 roms. Cards work fine, and you can use Google Now after 1 time of unsuccessfully getting the mic to recognize your voice, by usually just pressing the mic again.

The Sense based ICS roms do work. Unfortunately, they suck.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] namurt:
that bug with google now isn't isolated to this rom. it's an ics/google now issue in general that occurs somewhat randomly from rom to rom. remember, google now rolled out with jb and then was back-ported to ics, so it's not perfect.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tflogic:
Thanks so much for this Liquid!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ksheth2130:
You guys have made the end of this weekend incredible! Might have to call off of work tomorrow so I can tweak with my phone!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mvh11:
As a general FYI, you CAN dirty flash this over Jester's 2,6 build. His build wipes as part of the install, so that is not possible with his release, however, Liquid's zip does not, so this works fine. Do I recommend it? No, but if you are lazy like me, just wipe cache and dalvik and give it a shot. Worked for me with no issues. Can't guarantee the same to anyone else, so be smart and make a nandroid before you try.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Skyllos:
Got back from a 36 hour weekend of work and to see this is out now is awesome.. I need sleep but f**k it.. thanks liquid
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Please stay posted as I determine what type of mods or app packs I'll be posting under the op at a later date.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raphytaffy:
Is there a need to flash gapps after the ROM or is the Play Store baked in?

Edit: Never mind, missed that part on the OP. Thanks Liquid!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gammaxgoblin:
Please hit Newsworthy! This rom is pure aosp ics only 93mb dl! So very fast and smooth!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] schwab16:
Thanks so much for this!! Everything is great!!

I do have one question though, can someone explain to me how to get wireless tether to work? I know it was a problem with the ice cream sandwich leak, it would be greatly appreciate as I need to use tethering in my day to day work.

Again thanks so much team liquid!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RBarnett09:
You guys are so awesome!!!

I now have a reason to cut communication off from my girlfriend for the next week! Yes!!!!

use the built-in tethering instead of app. works great
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dbu:
Simply stunning. Anyone have a recommendation for a third party launcher. I see Apex and Nova, what's everyone's experience with these if any?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DaRkL3AD3R:
Got this ROM all setup and functioning. Had serious data connection issues initially both under Wifi and 3G. Had a blue signal connection, yet nothing would work. Neither Gmail login nor browser. Flicked the switch to disable wifi, enabled airplane mode, and when I reconnected after disabling airplane mode all was well. I'm running 605.19 radios.

Everything looks beautiful. Best ROM I've installed to date on this phone, and likely of all time.

It's so lean and clean, and so fast it's hard to believe this isn't an official build from Google. I feel like I'm using a Nexus device on my Thunderbolt. Incredible.

Of course the camera is glitchy but I blame HTC for using crumby hardware and finnicky drivers. Not to mention their utter failure to produce a working ICS update for this phone before user developers could.

Props Liquid. Thanks for the build man, I'd donate but I just got my debit card hacked and had over $350 emptied from my bank :(

When the money comes back and I'm secure again on a new card, you can expect a little something from me. You rock and deserve it for making my device that much better.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sg1dan:
i use go launcher ex. i'm really used to that. like the calander widget. apex/nova is smooth, but what i find really annoying is that you have to swipe sideways more, than in go launcher. since i'm not used to apex, i end up swiping twice or more to switch to next screen
[Thunderbolt Android Development] quickdraw86:
I really like apex. ADW was my favorite for gingerbread, and Apex is like a continuation of ADW, but for ICS.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dbu:
Yup, ADW was my fave for GB as well. I'll give apex a try. Thanks...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] armada786:
Bug to report. 4G signal doesn't report the proper number of bars. With the 4 bar setup, it only shows 2. With the 6 bar setup it shows all 6. Neither of these are correct according to the dBm. 3G and 1X seem to report properly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Adrioid:
Is Google Now included?
