Thanks for weighing in, chibixzero!

I agree completely that ics in general looks much better than gb. I like the feel of it better too, for lack of a better word. But since I use Launcher Pro it doesn't make that much difference what the UI looks like for me. I have noticed that some games are sluggish with ics or do not run at all, but that could be more of an issue on the game developers end, I guess ... Do you have any issues connecting your phone to a computer with ics? The process seems much more cumbersome than with gb--with gb I just plug in a USB cable and tap mass storage and that is it.

Went to stock gingerbread from jb. Gingerbread is very smooth. Only thing i miss from ics/ jb is task manager and full screen browser (stock browser)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] clay101eve:
This thread is pointless, no offense meant, because of the following:

JB, to me, adds quite a bit. Also, It's just as stable for me as ICS (multiple ROMS).

Different experiences, same phone, and ROM.

I use the voice to text feature from time to time but that was included in ICS. I don't use Google now, but JB gives me more options, a better UI and bragging rights. What does that matter to you?

Different opinions, same phone, same ROM.

Only thing I've suffered from is a bit of mem leak... a reboot a day solves that, sometimes two. This guy is being killed by mem leak. Why is it different? Each phone is different just like each grape on a vine is different.

Different views, different experience, same phone, same ROM.

The same things can be said for ICS vs GB. Different issues, different opinions, same phone, same ROM. Let's not forget that I may FULL wipe and run the kernel cleaning script before each flash and someone else may just wipe cache and dalvik. That right there is enough for one of us to have a problem the other doesn't. Let's not forget about the different tweaks you can do which add even MORE variables to why one ROM or kernel may run better for you than me... even on the same settings.

This was my "nice" response.

I would run stock gingerbread if I could keep the ics/jb YouTube app. Seriously. I get better battery life in GB. But that's just me. I've found maybe one ics rom with battery life that compares to GB battery life, but meh. To each his own.:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] j510:
I second this. From the day I went back to stock gb I get a day plus hours per charge. Like I memtioned before it is very smooth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Haints:
Phalanx--what is special about the ics youtube ap?

Thanks to all of you for weighing in. I've gone back to gb for now, mostly because there is one ap I like that I can't get running in ics. But I know I will switch back to ics eventually.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
GB. I believe it offers the best experience for our device. I've been on ICS for a while and the only thing holding me is the beautiful UI changes in AOSP. So far, it's been enough to keep me put. I doubt most people care about it that much though.

Better UI, video preloading while charging (on wifi), and the drastically different widget.

I freeze ap mobile and most bloatware. Sitting on like 675 mb free ram its ridiculous lol. What you mean security Lock thing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] j510:
aplicable only if you have a security pattern set on lockscren. when the phone is locked, press power button, let screen timeout, press power button again then the security lock is bypassed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BestInGalaxy:
You don't have to be on 2.3.6 to get it fixed. There's also a solution for 2.3.4; just set lock screen to "Immediately".

I installed Apex and deleted the stock one by mistake, now I realized Apex is not as smooth, and want to install the stock launcher back. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Landara:
I could be wrong here but I didn't think you can delete the stock launcher. Isn't it built into Android? Are you sure it's gone? What makes you say that it is?

You could use this. Its CM's launcher based in stock has a couple extra features. I think you can use it on stock.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Actually the features are only accessible on a custom rom that have "Launcher" settings in system settings. Features like grid size. And optional persistent search bar.

FYI***As wish777 pointed out.. this will put your phone in a permanent tablet mode*** So if you dont like holding yoru phone sideways.. dont doooooooo it! haha

i lied.. Orientation Control will make it go portrait..

View attachment 1342716

which might not be a bad deal checking out all those women.. hmmmmmm

So i was an idiot and payed the 10 dollars for Chameleon Launcher thinking i would be able to find the actual apk file somewhere.. or that they might email me a copy of it.. yea i was wrong.. so i went looking around for a way to trick the market and came across a few build.prop tweaks.. none of which worked.. so i decided to pick up my sons Nexus 7 this evening and give it a try myself.. and this is what i came up with.. my i717.. honestly believes its a nexus 7.. ****.. so does google..

View attachment 1342675

haha yea.. i had a good laugh when i recieved that email.. anyway.. here we go..

First things first, if you arent already running in tablet mode do so.. your settings should look like this.. This will require a reboot.. go ahead..

View attachment 1342497

After this whole deal is finished you can change them to bigger if you want.. but as far as i know.. for this to work.. they need to be straight tablet for now..

Next.. Make a backup.. im not responsible and alla that.. you break you buy..

Okay.. So now that you have a backup.. open up your ES File.. or whatever you use.. and navigate to your build.prop (/system/) should be right there..

Next.. make a copy of it and just let it sit there.. Just in case...(copy of build.prop)

Now.. the fun stuff.. make sure you change exactly what i have changed.. or else it wont work.. not sure if its down to the spaces and what not.. but who knows.. i sure dont..

Everything in BOLD are the lines that need to be changed..

The BOLD and ITALIC is what i actually changed it to..

MOD EDIT

Okay.. so now that thats over.. MAKE SURE AND SAVE THE FILE.. or else you would have just wasted your time..

Reboot..

Now.. if everything went smoothly.. as soon as your phone reboots.. you should receive that email from Google.. and your apps should start to update on their own.. to the tablet type apps..

Here is some proof if you dont believe it..

View attachment 1342503

Download Display Tester and try it out for yourself if you REALLY dont believe..

And now youre done.. now i honestly only did this because i wanted chameleon launcher.. and i dont work for them or anything.. but it really is a nice launcher for our phone.. and it works pretty damn well.. its worth 10 bucks even if you only use it for a week.. give it a try..

After using a bootleg copy of it.. then installing the real deal.. its awesome.. and with this tweek.. the resolution on the screen is amazing.. icons look crisp and sharp.. everything runs a little smoother.. it just looks pretty damn good.. anyway.. all in all.. your i717 phablet.. is now really.. a tablet..

Here some screens to check out facebook messanger.. facebook.. and my homescreens.. no those arent my hoes.. theyre on instagram.. email me and ill tell you who to follow.. ;)

This is really cool, thanks for sharing. What theme are you running?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
Couldnt you have just used the any dpi market apk..the one floating around that doesn't restrict dpi settings for the market?...it brings up more apps for the note, that stock normally doesn't..lol

I did this for the galaxy nexus when ics was out long ago to get apps..any time you change the build prob to a certain device ..clear cache reboot, it manipulates the market to believing its the device..this way you can get certain games or apps....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lookitschris:
you could.. but in all honesty.. i feel like this makes your screen so much cleaner.. crisper.. you can even tell from those pictures.. but.. its not for everyone.. thanks.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. damn five min wait.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. and besides.. now that im waiting.. using PA.. i dont want something that changes my dpi universally.. i like my stuff to be the way i want it.. isnt that the whole point?

.. .. and isnt that wha ti just did? because if you read.. i tried all that clear cache in market blazay blazay.. and none of it worked for me.. so rather than clear my cache and reboot another million times.. i came up with this.. you dont have to use it.. but someone else might want to..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
yes..every one has different ways of achieving the same goal...If you like your phone strickly tablet that's what suits you....so yes if your happy that's all that matters....good job!!

---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

For some reason the resolution does look very clearer like the graphics "POP" out at ya...does that launcher use a hardware rendering or some option to enhance quality of pictures or something? I have my build props set at maximum resolution so I don't know if its my phone making it look that clear or your actual launcher?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
The original post seems like a lot of work. Will simply changing the dpi to run tabletop work as well and will it look as nice? And is the launcher worth $10?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lookitschris:
i personally think the launcher is worth ten dollars.. ive compared it from a bootleg version.. to this version 1.. and its a huge improvement.. but thats my opinion.. lets be for real.. ten dollars.. is one hour of work at mcdonalds.. its like i said.. pay ten bucks.. use it for a week.. and you got your moneys worth.. but again.. personal opinion.. as far as the amount of work.. it really isnt.. just alot of words to explain it step by step in detail like i did.. the hardest part of it all would be the build.prop section.. but.. once again.. personal opinion.. but i think youre smart enough to figure out what line that secition starts and ends on.. and just copy and paste the whole thing.. entire process.. 7 min maximum.. if you do it smart..

Hey I've had problems installing chameleon launcher on my phone as well (Note I717). I've tried absolutely tried everything to get it installed but nada. Fortunately there is a way but you're gonna have to install it another way, and that is having to download the apk of the internet. I know its not the best thing but this was my only solution.

P.S Note I717 running JamieD PA. Tablet mode(small)

Help installing it:

1. Download the apk off the internet

2. Install lucky patcher

3. Install chameleon but don't open

4. Patch it with lucky patcher

Send it to HTC saying that it happened randomly.

HTC traces warranty by serial number & not purchase invoices.

Go over to the Support page on HTC's site. Contact them via phone or chat.

They will let you know if you still have warranty. They don't check bricked phones either, so no need to worry about software changes.

But I hope the hardware along with all warranty stickers is intact.

And that the liquid intrusion indicator at the back of the phone, below the battery is white.
