Mike's ICS ROM

Before I say anything, I know this is probably in the wrong place, but it wouldnt let me post in the development forums because of my low post count, I also know this ROM is in a pre-alpha stage and will have many broken features and bugs, this is not what I am asking about.
I just want to know if anyone knows how big the ROM is, I want to try it out to see what it could be like, the download is 167MB, but is that how big the installed rom is? I have resized partitions in my flash memory, therefore if its bigger than 150MB I will need to resize again.
Also (I know basic question) will I still beable to boot to CWM to restore a nandroid backup of Swiftdroid? I know that atleast Wifi and GSM dont work, as long as the info on Mike's web page is up to date, this alone will mean I will need to roll back after I have had a look around, so a nandroid backup will be the best way.
I only ask the last question because I have only used swiftdroid so I need to make sure.

the download contain the recovery version and fastboot version in the one zip the system is about 140MB

Thanks, my system partition is just big enough, do you have any sugestions on a reasonable size for my system partition? Mainly for when more is working and I upgrade perminantly 10MB isnt enough for any updates imo.

I would suggest 160 system partition!

I dont get any rebooting on my phone, and barely any force closes except things confirmed not to work.
If you have resized system and data partitions, I changed my system partition to 170MB because there is alot to come to the rom and it could get alot bigger, I can always lower it if needed.

how do you partition the system to 180MB? I also have the same problem of restarting .. however there are problems with the keyboard and I found the official ICS only by the number of posts I am unable to post it on the official post .. so if anyone wants to take this job I can ask in PM the link (because of the number of posts I'm not insert link) (PS: this keyboard would solve many problems; D)

Still running 2.4.20 MIUI... was tempted to try ICS but now seems everyone is looking toward to Jelly bean. Only feature I care about in Jelly Bean was the voice actions.
Other than that I'll take MIUI any day.

Looks good! Seems to have the same bugs as the other ICS ROM, but a great start nonetheless!

Liwais,
Good work, man. This latest ROM is definitely better than previous ones. Aside from the typical things that are not working, like camera, for example, the transitions and response is considerably better but obviously not ready for extensive daily use just yet. I will provide more detailed report later on. But just wanted to say "thank you" for your hard work.

Hello
Hello guys... i wanna know how to install this rom. via streakmod recovery ? or what ? pls tell me step by step procedure to make a flashing on this DS 5.

Yes, using StreakMod recovery.
1) Do a Nandroid backup.
2) Clear Dalvik, Cache and Factory Reset from StreakMod.
3) Factory reset from main recovery menu. This step isn't always necessary, but doesn't hurt.
4) Flash this zip. Also flash gapps and superuser.zip from the other ICS thread for Google Apps and root.
5) Reboot and enjoy ICS MIUI!

[GUIDE] How to keep the old CM10 partition layout & stay up to date with changes

OK, so the debate over partitioning in CM10 is all but done and I'm not going to discuss it here.
I've been building CM10 for my own use with the partition layout change reverted and this works nicely for me. But what about people who can't compile the source for themselves (for whatever reason)?
That's why I'm posting this brief guide to what I'm calling "fudgedating" (its like updating). Using the method below you will be able to stay up to date with all the CM10 nightly updates (except kernel changes) without compiling or doing anything difficult.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE FLASHING
I'VE TESTED THIS WITH CM10 NIGHTLIES FROM 23082012 & 22082012 BUT IF IT FAILS TO WORK FOR YOU THEN I'M SORRY, THAT'S LIFE. RESTORE YOUR BACKUP & MOVE ON
What you'll need:
1. My cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip file (my nightly that has a working kernel with the old partition layout)
2. Any current Nightly zip of CM10
3. A computer with a Zip-capable archive tool
What you need to do:
1. Make a copy of cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and call it something like CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip
2. delete the /system folder from within CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
3. extract the /system folder from your official CM10 Nightly
4. add that /system folder to your CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
Now you have a CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) containing the kernel and partition layout from cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and the system from the CM10 Nightly.
Copy CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) to your SD card and flash it in CWM.
Reboot & profit
NOTE: currently you can NOT flash any custom kernels because there aren't any that support the latest CM10 while still having the old partition layout.
Whenever you want to repeat the process for a new Nighly, just do steps 2,3 & 4 again and flash it as before.
Please don't flame this thread. If you think its a bad idea then please state only technical objections to support your view.
All credit to Team Hacksung & Pawitp for the awesome effort that continues to go into CM10.

Well... old partition nightlies worked very good for me.So I will try this.
Anyway I noticed there are some jb ROMs with less changes than yours calling theirselfs stable so far etc.
Will you make thread of cm10 (or call it like you want) with old partition and newest nightly?
Thanks. Sorry for poor English.

Thanks but I don't want to start the hard work of maintaining a ROM thread. This is just instructions to stay up to date.
I do compile my own CM10 which you can download by clicking on my signature. Again, I won't be starting a thread for this as its really just for me but I don't mind sharing.
I will change the thread title though.

That's good to know. I think we both must have phones with the faster NAND because I didn't see any improvement when the official partition layout changed.

Managed to install your rom, and I got what I want. However I have a probler with Adaway said: /data/data/host not enough spare. Try Adfree solve the problem. Anyway thank you for the idea and rom.
Edit: Just discovered that System had only 300k free space out of 350MB. Maybe I have to delete some not important apk (like those live wallpapers) & unused ringtones.
Edit2: After deleting Chinese & Korean fonts Droidsansfallback , MTL* & Nanum Gothic, I got 12MB free space and Adaway runs smoothly.

A rom more in line with the Slim Bean philosophy (about 280mb system with google apps) would even allow you to create a larger datadata partition (at the expense of unused system partition space, circa 80mb) and improve usability. Using this mind-frame i guess we could gain some 50mb to datadata while still keeping 30mb free in system for people who want to add some removed system apps.
Nevertheless, this is your rom and ultimately your decision.

Its a good idea & perfectly possible. Pawitp just asked for some chip id data in the CM10 thread. It looks like lags could be associated with phones having the older Samsung MoviNand chip. Newer devices have a Sandisk iNand (same as Nexus S). I have the Sandisk so that's why the new partition layout made no difference to me. I'm not sure that increasing datadata would help. I don't use it because I don't see any gain in practice.

Nope. We dont have a coder right now so all modifications were done by me to have a stable ICS. I took the zip that bronxitas made and added tweaks and removed files to make it faster and smoother. So i thought it would work because that zip was working fine.

First thing: You need to root your phone! Follow the instructions in my signature (under 'Rooted' - files found in 'these files')
Once you have successfully rooted your phone, you need to install 2ndInit <link here> (v2.3)
Now you can flash CM10!

i hve rooted.

I have rooted my phone and i have installed 2ndinit in the phone.
can you guide me what to do next?

Hi,
maybe i can help you.
1.Download here the last quarz rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702
(Its beta! Its mean not perfect, but ran smotth.)
Put this on your sd.
2.Then you download gapps
minimal is enough, because your systemspace is not big.
Here a new link
http://www.uncledan.it/android-files/DefyGapps/Defy-Gapps-CM10.1-20121201-minimal.zip
And dont forget to put it on your sd.
Accu is full?
3.Restart your phone and by the blue led you push down.
4.Go in the custom or stable recovery, not stock.
5.Wipe data/factory reset.Before make a backup, when you want.
6.Install zip from sd.
Choose the rom, after this choose the gapps.
7.Restart
The first time need time. When is look like problem
pull out and in the battery.And make the handy on and wait.
PS:Read, read and read next time.
In the many threats they wrote how to install specific mods.
German is so much easier for me.
So i hope its help.
And i dont know why the people forget thanks after they take an answer.
Happy modding
I like acid sound mod 5 not 7 to improve the sound quality.
And jellyx make nice kernels for the last cm10s.

Thank you Joke19!
Could you please explain what is minimal gapps? Do I lose some functionality if I install minimal gapps instead of "full" gapps?
Danke!

Gapps = Google Applications
So no, you won't lose functionality, and plus you can download any apps you want via the Play Store.

Thanks bro

I've been using sevenrock's adjusted Quarx build. However, if you read past the post you will find YAFU's post offers his take on it. They might be outdated as I haven't seen many positive comments on the recent builds. Hopefully someone can give you a more updated opinion.
Edit: As Sunny mentioned 0307 is the most recent stable one he knows. If you want to have fun then go play with the most recent just remember the newer does not always equate to better.

I am little confused with my backup part.....i want to backup my current rom. how can i do it? can it be done with 2ndinit? if yes can you guide it out.

Go to the custom recovery option via bootmenu, navigate using volume keys and the power button to select backup and restore and then backup all
On a side note, cm10.1 is working quite well for me

I have installed it and it is running great......it has been running fr 25 hrs now in one go and didnt found any prob yet.
Sorry bro i m not a heavy user for Wifi so cant give decision on that.
Prob....cant sync mail contacts with normal contacts.
Phone camera is not proper. It still has some glitches.
made few calls....the receiver complains abt my voice reaching to them
The worst is the 2ndit recovery got changed. still wondering how can i recover that
Still no big prob.....Over all it is good one.
Thanks fr the suggestion

i am running on CM10.1 20130404quarx ( the one with the stable kernel ) and wifi runs fine. i´m also on blechdoses 03/04 kernel, maybe it makes any difference, i don´t know. the problem is that actually the wifi prevents the phone from sleep. i resolved this problem with the battery saver app. but all at all the rom runs really fine

Thanks a very lot! Suddenly my MB526 understands German It was a Chinese before! And now it has gapps.
I used CM10-20130318-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip and gapps-jb-20120726-minimal.zip, in case anyones wants to know.
Even more great is the fact, that it has JB 4.1.2 now!!! It was GB 2.3.4 (or something, sorry) before!
Just cool
