Conspiracy!
For kernel benchmarks and more, see here: http://goo.gl/mpeHI

There's a new build up.

Ok.. So what's new and exciting..? Why should I switch from Peter's rom?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

Just flashed the stable version for the NS4G earlier. Here's some screenshots, let me know if there's something specific you want to see. Quite a few power options and UI options. Also flashed Matrix 15 cfs.
Observations so far:
The link to the gapps on Drew Garen's site goes to multiupload, which for obvious reasons doesn't work. I downloaded the gapps for CM9 and it seems fine so far.
Seems pretty zippy but not quite as fast as I was getting with Gummy.
For some reason Titanium isn't working -- I get a message saying I'm not rooted or that the ROM doesn't have busybox. I'm new at this so I'm not sure how to fix it.
Edited - ok so you can download busybox from the market. I'm an idiot.
I can't get overclocking to stay overclocked on boot, even though I have "set on boot" checked. It goes back to 1000.
The green flash thing when the phone goes to sleep is still around.
None of this is a knock though -- seems like a good rom with a lot of options and tweaks. Looking forward to seeing what they come up with.

No, the names aren't even spelled the same; "Steve Garon" and "Drew Garen".
Speaking of names, is it 'young bon' or 'young bone'. For some strange reason I believe it's a misspelling.

Im also running the stable of ocra at the moment (with matr1x 15.5) and im quite happy with it! If you want percice information have a look at their site!
The rom is at least worth a try!

Leaked 2.3 ROM FOR i9000 GALAXY S

http://www.samfirmware.com/apps/blog/entries/show/6282349-android-2-3-2-leaks-for-galaxy-s-
This is a just leaked rom for the galaxy s. hopefully the devs can use it for the vibrant.
well even if not at least we know now that Samsung wasn't lying about March for the euro/Asian markets.
Nice, hopefully we will be able to use this to our advantage?
Also, couldn't we flash this since we now have the kernel that allow us to flash i900 ROMS? If we could just flash those files, then flash the kernel through Odin somehow it might work. Idk though, I'm no dev.

GINGERBREAD leaked
damb, this is so great, im thinking maybe tonight we might have a port for the vibrant, and i wonder if eugene and krylon know about this considering, it just today got leaked, a few hours ago.............. anyways, everyone post on this, lets get the hype going, we want this baby ported ASAP.. always thanks so much eugene and krylon, my brothers of galaxy android
So far from what i've read over there...
Looks like quadrant scores are not improved over 2.2 which is what i'm sure most people are hoping for. It also appears that the screen off animation is not present in the rom. It's also using Touchwiz 3.0 and not 4. Market is broken, and gingerbread keyboard also not included. Looks like an early beta build from what i've read.
**edit**
market is working, they have root access, and they are in the process of deodexing.
So far from what i've read over there...
damn double post. please delete
Sweet, hope we can get some cooked roms soon
The bad thing about it, it uses touchwiz 3.0, not stock.

The kernel that allows us to flash i9000 ROMs is only 2.2 and 2.2.1 compatible. I'm pretty sure someone would have to build a new kernel to let us flash that or port the ROM over.
The crowds are getting restless over there. They're in an uproar about "this is missing" and "that is missing". One of the complaints is about the gingerbread wallpaper being missing. But these guys forget that our 2.1 devices didn't come with stock 2.1 walls. They instead came with whatever wallpapers samsung gave us. Overall it's starting to sound more complete than the first froyo leaks that we used to have which is reassuring. Some of the guys say that the leak is stable and everything is working on their devices. One of the nice improvements they're reporting is functioning hardware acceleration.
No TV-off?! NOooOoO!

Funny to see their behavior over it when we are just sinking our teeth into 2.2.1. Maybe its a good thing though.. I myself am so pleased with the performance boost of 2.2.1 that I'm in no rush to flash again but of course I'm in the minority on that.

Na I'm with you on that, running Bionix 1.3 and it really is just as fast as CM7 was for. Really the only thing that gingerbread had over this ROM is that the applications list loaded faster. Plus on this I have themes

[POLL]Fastest and most stable ICS rom

Hi all!
I made this thread so it will be clear which ICS rom is the fastest at the moment.
Roms included in poll:
Kwiboo's ICS v3
Cyanogenmod 9 Alpha 12
NexusBeam HD (latest version)
(ICS) Android 4.0 by eugene373
Cyanogenmod 9 Kangs (latest)
NexusMV 2.xx.xx
If you vote for a rom, please use the latest version of it. .. Dont forget to vote peepzz!
I haven't tried eugene's rom, but the Nexus Beam has been the fastest and most stable of the rest. Still, I hear good things about eugene's rom, so maybe I'll try it. But nothing beats GB... Yet..
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
So far... Eugenes
Kang Kang Kang a Gong get it on.....
Asop v26 for ns4g

So far it'd be Beam 2.xxx.xxx, fast stable and smooth as baby's bum!
looks like cm9 kangs are ahead so far.

Honestly, though, how many people are fit to vote? How can you judge which is the most reliable if you haven't tried all of them?
More of a poll of which ROM everyone is on, as opposed to which is the most reliable.
Just a thought...
So as far as the NS4G, I think that CM9 KANGS has smoothest UI experienced the least lag if any but AOSP's rom definitely has faster 3g
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I've tried all of them except Eugene's. The kangs were the fastest until I tried out Drew Garens beta 2. IMO that is the fastest right now although all of the roms lag in comparison to gingerbread. I am starting to get jealous of the speed of my girlfriends stock Nexus S....
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Kiwiboo v3 is the best for me. Honestly no issues (i.e. Wifi, keyboard, market, calendar apps all work out of the box.)
Whenever I read a kang thread there is someone having issues, NexusBeam HD some aren't able to download apps from the Market etc.
Kiwiboo takes it for having a working ICS port with no hassle.

that was just a statement of observation, since i opened this thread the first time.
but, if you want to go there, how do you judge fastest when every user has their own experience. the same with reliability. we all look for these roms to fullfill our individual needs, and our individual needs all differ. so, i can probably say, these roms are all fast and reliable, or they wouldnt be on this list

I agree CM9 Kangs are definitely the ones to favor and will outright win this poll because:
1. It has CM on it.
People will blindly believe these are the best ones without trying others.
ZOMG CyanogenMod!!! *crackflashes*
2. It's the most frequently updated.
People always believe the latest ROMs will be better than previous ones. (See NexusBeam HD and now Android 4.0 from Eugene.)
New ROM ... need to fill crackflashing addiction ...
I cant decide between nexusbeam hd and latest kang.. i runned both.. but kang is better cuz it has all the apps. Im waiting on nexusbeam 2.2 update.. then i can compare with latest kang

Sorry, I didn't mean to be calling you out, but just talking about the poll in general.
I'm sure all the ROMs are great, just YMMV for any of them!
Personally I'm on CM also - updates are available through ROM Manager and it was stable enough for me.
Latest kang for me. Paired with the latest seuv. Snappy, better battery life

i never thought you were. my first line in that statement is a bit misleading. i see that after rereading what i wrote
also, i have to say, when i flash a rom, i usually take my favorite kernel with me. so, whatever rom im on at the time, is the fastest and most reliable rom for me

This is true, I feel. I was trying different ROMs at first, but I've noticed I've stuck with CM9 kangs, and I'm REALLY sticking to em now since I flashed today's kang + morfic's SEUV 13b ICS kernel. The speed boost I got today was amazing. With the underclock, it's faster than the early roms were when overclocked.
This is, in reality, going to be a poll about how many people use each rom.

incremental ics update xoom project

Here is a link to the ics update for the motorola xoom.
I have no idea if this is of any use to our developers but just thought it might in some way speed up the development of a fully working a500 ics custom rom.
http://android.clients.google.com/p...igned-tervigon-IML77-from-HTK75D.71a21bfe.zip
there are already roms (or at least a rom) working fully except for the camera. Unless it has acer camera files, i doubt the xoom code will help much.

No, he's got a ICS rom (Android 4.0). I'm running it right now and it's amazing. The best rom I've ever ran on my Iconia.
Yes he does have it I had 40 running for a bit but SPB shell doesn't run along with a handful of other apps I have bought ill wait till app developers get the kinks out..

And you owe me personally, about well, a lot of beers. And not just any beer mind you, but I like really expensive beer
In fact, if one would calculate 12 beers per day @.5L per beer since the time he got HW Accel working, No green screens, and 85% of all functions working, you owe me about 457 beers, give or take. But I'm not greedy. I'll settle for an even 400 x.5L.
The Pure ICS rom 4.x, runs damn good. Only 3 or 4 things left. Most people are using it as a daily driver.
But now, "Iced" cube, if you don't come through with your wager, on open terms as you set, Well... that would be considered "welching" on a bet.
Welp, there goes my weekly wage...
I did say "a beer", not "a few beers"
'tis all good, i'll drop some money in the tin.
That aside.... Time to flash the ROM, then!

Youre flashing a xoom rom? That might be the problem. There is an ics build mostly functional for our device a few pages in to the dev forum (where we are) or you can google thor and try his which afaik is just lacking camera and rotation lock.

Icecream Sandwhich beta sites down

Hello,
So I figured today that I would install icecream sandwhich on my Evo Shift. There is a problem with this however:
The only download links I can find to the files required are from Multiupload, and Multiupload is being blocked. Does anyone know of an alternative source where I can get: Speedy ICS 4.0.3 AOSP – Evervolv Kang Build v1.1?
I have tried many searches and I am not having any luck. Any help that can be provided would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your quick response. I went to the website you posted. I see he has listed different versions. The one listed as the most current version does my mention Icecream Sandwich in the log (his previous versions seem to list they are Gingerbread downloads). Also when I clicked the link he gives for the download, it says that he uploaded the file in June of last year, which suggests it isn't Icecream Sandwich. Do you know of a link that is for Android 4.0 (icecream sandwich)? Like I said, I can only find sites that list the Multiupload link, and that site is down. Thanks again for your time and help.

Sure. That's a great point.
But keep in mind, when you go back to GB after the display corruption, broken camera, broken GPS, broken WiMax and you get FC's after restoring your nandroid, you'd agree with my opinion.
ics definately is not usable as a daily driver obviously. But it does help the developers for users to flash and report bugs/issues they are having and what may be causing the issues. Some people may not need 4G like people that use miui as their daily roms, so once a majority of the bugs are squashed I'm sure a lot of people will find it usable. I am going to miss things like theme chooser and built in tethering from cm7 though there's a lot of good things in gingerbread roms that I hope I can just let go of when it's time to move on.

Still there's no reason why people should'nt give it a try. Otherwise, what's the point or rooting and installing a custom recovery? You should encourage users to try new ROMs, if it doesn't work out, that's why we have nandroid backups. I was using ICS as a daily since I don't have 4G where I live and camera isn't a big concern for me. I'm currently on MikG to develop an app for tommytomatoe and once complete, I will be rocking it again. How about letting people form their own opinion without you always throwing your negativity and "expert" opinion into the mix?

ICS -v- Task 14 /\ My Review

I have seen a lot of talk lately with people comparing the ICS development ROM's to Task 14.. I have been swapping back and forth almost daily between AOKP #23 and Task 14 Slim so here are my thoughts..
1st of all both are awesome ROM's that offer plusses and minuses depending on what each individual wants and needs.. These observations are based on MY wants and needs so opinions will vary.. The fact that Task 14, a HC 3.2 ROM even gets mentioned / compared to an ICS ROM speaks volumes about how good it is..
Things I like about AOKP #23:
--Browser hardware acceleration
--No screenshot soft key (I loathe that thing)
--ROM Control
--Ability to set # of homescreens
--Swipe to dismiss
Things I like about Task 14:
--Rock solid and stable
--Camera works for video chat
--Just as fast as ICS in many areas and faster in some
--Mini widgets
--Several awesome themes available
The AOKP is actually pretty stable for the most part and Roman and team have done an awesome job on it but remember it's a beta so there is issues and bugs at the time of this posting.. Task 14 is super rock solid and its really only limited by HC 3.2..
I honestly can't decide which I like better.. They both ROCK! I guess that's why I change between them daily..
A few AOKP issues I have is with apps and the screen.. Words with friends is a good example of this.. Also, the screen gets a little glitchy at times when viewing online images.. Nothing major and by no means a put down on AOKP...
I have had zero issues on Task 14 that are not widespread HC 3.2 related..
If you can live without the camera and are willing to experience a few minor bugs here and there then the AOKP may be for you.. If however you want rock solid with zero bugs, a working camera and a system that is just as fast then Task 14 may be for you..
These are MY thoughts and comparison of 2 kick a$$ ROM's... Thoughts and replies are welcome but please don't turn this thread into a pi$$ing match...
You're just asking for a pissing match. I'll just watch... for now...:sly:

I hope not since they are both awesome ROM's...
I've tried ics, very fast and smooth without touchwiz is a godsend. There is only one 3g ics rom so I have not tried romanb's yet. 3g is a big deal to me. Other thing with isc is no proper USB/mass storage support. It does not show all files that I've downloaded from net except whatever files I transferred to tab. Camera is another big issue for me, or lack of. Video does not work also from the rom I tried. Some apps on market not supported also so cant update. That's my summary of isc. HC3.2 on the other hand is improving. I have not tried Task as again no 3g. I'm a big fan of Alterbridge and his Overcome roms. Been using his rom since the original Tab. His latest 2.3.0 soup up with pershoot kernel is more than great for me. ISC is great but for my daily usage, its not ready yet.

I do realize this is XDA but I guess I hope we all will act like adults and that this mini review will help anyone who can't choose between these 2 awesome ROM's.. Heck I'm having a hard time choosing.. The OP was made on Task 14 and this post is getting made on AOKP..
Good comparsion between the two. Personally, I use Task14 with b00sted's ICS theme. No ICS can compare to it right now, but once the camera issue is solved, ICS will be boss.
All us Task fans are hoping for a Task ICS ROM soon.
BTW, good thread OP.
A Task ICS ROM will be awesome once it comes.. I'm back on the AOKP for this morning as least..
I think we scared off the ones that would have made this a pissing match. Good.
BTW- nice OP.

How can you compare Android 4.0 (No official release and by the way in Alpha state) and Android 3.2?

He is comparing what is available today. The OP is well aware that ICS is in development but he is looking for a daily driver and was looking for others opinions on what we use.
Until ICS is official there is no way to do a 1 for 1 comparison.

It's easy.. I use them both daily and figured my post might help others who are on the fence or not sure which to use..
Anything can be compared.. Pinto -v- Corvette or Blonde -v- Brunette ect....

Easy you try them both and yes ics is alpha but thats what is available now and is the point of this thread. I came to the same conclusion as the OP after using both kang versions. the arguably incremental improvement in smoothness does not outweigh the full functionality goodness of galaxytask
Adding Visidon even gives me face unlock features and with camera ics+ i get the camera panorama functionality on my galaxy task rom

Even though it is supposed to be alpha (since the Camera mainly does not work and there are also some minor bugs), it is quite stable for daily use as I myself use it and the best part is there are some amazing customisation options ..... literally mind blowing!
Thanks for the review. Still haven't custom rom'd it up yet.
When does the official ics come out?
i have found that the battery in the latest ICS kangs (not the one on XDA as that doesnt get updated! but the one on rootzwiki) is by far lots better than any HC.
So indeed for an alpha release ICS is looking very good compare to an already establish HC rom.
So I can only imagine how good ICS will be when SS releases it...hopefully in April..
bit OT interesting that there are no leaks yet from samfirmware!

Agree as well... ICS is not mind blowing and is only slightly snappier than Taks 14 in some areas..
