[Q] Skip track with volume press (ICS & JB) - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Hi!
Since now there are lots of fairly stable and usable ics Roms, this is the only thing that keeps me away from them. I don't know enough to do such a thing, so I wonder if anyone is capable to enable it on aurora, elora or mlora? I know that CM10 has it, but non working wifi makes it unusable for me. I obviously speak for myself, but I think a lot of users would love to see this features in new roms.
Thanks in advance!

That will be awesome! With that option enabled the rom will be perfect!

I'm right there with you, man. The lack of this feature is the only thing that keeps me stuck with GB Roms, because I use my phone as my music player as well...I'd really love to see this ported to ICS!

You could try SCI-MIUI-1.9.16-1.1 great rom

Freshly Sqeezed FTW. MrGaraks does wonders! miss MIUI! lol...
I tried a 1.7.15 official MIUI and seemed a bit laggish. I like MIUI style but i want a perfectly smooth rom, i hate lags
Suggestions? Sci-MIUI or Freshly Squeezed?
there are no major diffference between all of the dhd miui roms here. the differences are only optical and/or minor optimizations/customizations.
regarding lags and battery time it basically does not matter which miui custom rom you are using.
as far as i know no one of the miui cursom rom devs here is really changing anything on the original miui. or changes are only additional scripts for tweaking some parameters or including a customiuzation mod or a different kernel.
there is far less magic than many users might think.
mr.garaks freshly squeezed miui is a very good rom. the best about this rom is mr.garak himself because he is very fast at helping.
i cannt talk about rd miui (sorry if it is wrong, not sure about the name) by dekky as i didn't tested it. but judging from his changelist he also didn't changed much significant. so his rom should also work very good..
though, some of the tweaks one of us applies to his rom could make trouble for some users or sometimes it is simply a coincidence. try them out and where you feel most comfortable that you should keep. there is no real best miui rom.
I'm on newest official with supercharger and kernelizer and oc.. INCREDIBLE SPEED i just had to bold it
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using Tapatalk
I personally use the official released from "MIUIAndroid.com". That way I have a better idea of what's been done to my ROM, and I know that random tweaks haven't been done.
For issues regarding lag. I use LordModUE Kernel. Whether or not it actually makes a difference or if it's just the placebo effect I do not know. But I know that I enjoy the experience more with LordModUE.
Just my 2 cents.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
@Arktihx : i fully understand you. that's one of the reasons why i started doing my own miui rom
i have a quite detailed change over stock list. and if this is not enough i am willing to pinpoint the changes. i think this should every dev do.

Now it's here, what do you think? ICS

I am actually quite happy with it, it's fairly fast nice and smooth with no major issues.
Just need status bar toggles, power button menu, custom kernel and I think I will be happy
What's everyone else's thoughts ?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
it's OK and stable..only thing is the lag issue..it should be snappier..
Is good to use smooth no lag

Well, I'm still not sure what the whole big deal is about this update for us.
It isn't more beautiful then a custom ROM. Even Sony told us that this isn't as fast as GB.
And their are still a lot of apps that isn't working correctly on 4.0.
I have it for only one reason. That is because I can't stand if someone with the same device have a newer software then me
Edit: I thought we should have the original unlock. But I have still the Sony one.....
It is no way smooth.. Everything works.. But isn't hardware acceleration supposed to increase the smoothness? I don't blame Sony. I blame Google for not fixing hardware acceleration right!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
Try enabling gpu acceleration in developer settings?
Has anyone tried using apex launcher? It's probably way better than the stock launcher from what I've seen; like ICS but even better
Running official ics(rooted).its excellent. Very quick lag free compared to beta. I have frozen unneeded system apps and deleted bloatware. Very snappy
Sent from my LT18i using XDA
I love it.
I've been running the ICS beta since it was released and the performance of the final release blows it away on my Arc S. Getting it installed via Flashtool was a right PITA though - I thought my device was properly screwed at one point!
The launcher doesn't redraw like the beta did - I think Sony have made some memory tweaks in this area which is very welcome. I also like that they're shipping the official ICS Gallery app (and have renamed the old one 'Xperia Gallery') - the ICS Gallery app is so much faster than the Xperia one.
The ICS browser is in a different league to the GB one. I also love the Task Switcher, swipe notifications, music player controls, data usage monitor, new ICS calendar widget, GMail widget, etc. etc.
But Sony won't be able to please everyone. Some people were expecting the 2012 NXT UI even though Sony never promised it. These people will be disappointed. Personally I can't see what all the fuss is about - I'm sure someone will get the Xperia S music player working on ICS if that's what people want!
sooo smooth
so fast
i use baseband 70 with cm9
so fast sooo smooth >> perfect battery use
good new baseband
please can someone find a way too root this firmware without unlocking the bootloader??

its complete rubbish to be honest. It hasnt improved at all since beta, the look and feel of it is like 2.3. They could have atleast been bothered to integrate some of xperia s apps.

Why would they integrate S apps into the Arc S ? What would be the point in giving this years flagship phones apps to last year's ? Then it removes some of the attraction of upgrading , Sony is a business out to make money not provide users with all the solutions they want

Stock Camera for Custom Rom's

Hey All,
Since rooting my SGS2 and installing ICS Roms I find the Camera App is total S**t !
I use the camera loads both still and video.
The stock SGS2 Camera app was awesome !!!!! But the ICS one is rubbish !
I have searched everywhere and stock camera app is not available for custom roms or as an apk file.
So I am trying to find a developer to port the SGS2 Stock Camera App so it will work on all custom roms so we can all use it.
Failing that port it to Root Box Rom by Bajee11 as that's the Rom I use.
If anyone is skilled enough then let me know and we can discuss it further. It has to be totally bug free and working though.
I want this to happen so no time wasters please.
Feel free to leave comments regarding your camera experience on ICS.
Also don't recommend any apps as I wasted money on them all.

Nah I don't think it would be imposable, just a lot of hard work either porting it from GB or starting from scratch. But either way something has to be done cause the ics camera is just crap!
I dont understand your topic. You're talking about a stock camera app. Flash any SAMSUNG based custom or stock ICS Rom and you will have a great camera... If you are using a CM or AOSP based ICS rom, like Rootbox, your camera might be worse. Because you have a Samsung device with Samsung camera, but a not samsung firmware... Or am I thinking wrong here, lolllzzz. Seems like common sense to me...

That's right it is bad but only the cm team can add features to it but no one will port the camera app its not so easy
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I am fully aware that it will be hard but if someone can port the other Samsung apps over then porting this will be possible. It will just take a little hard work and time for someone who has the knowledge about these kind of things (I don't)
Hopefully sooner or later a developer with the skill will answer the call
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
It may not be impossible, but you have to understand that the stock Samsung camera app requires the touchwiz framework and system libraries, these files are completely incompatible with the AOSP framework and libraries, also the libraries in question are closed source when distributed by Samsung so any attempt to port or write from scratch would be a complete shot in the dark and while I'm sure there are devas out there who agree with you, with all the issues Samsung creates for AOSP devs a mostly working camera is much further down the list than other projects.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
This is something I've been looking for since I been using CM as well... 6 months now... really sucks to have such a great firmware with such a bad camera... more importantly the reduced camera settings is what makes matter worse...
For eg if you want to make a video with CM Cramera on lowest resolution, a 1 min video is like 40mb... can't even email something like that... while stock allowed 3gp and VGA resolution cams so you can take random small unimp videos to send... like on whatsapp with a 12mb limit you can only make like 5-10 second videos...

Get UCAM pro. Try it. Seriously great.
The question should be about other third party camera apps available on the play store. Is there any app that comes close to the stock samsung app in the terms discussed above?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
As OP states no point in recommending any PS Apps. I have seriously tried them all and wasted loads of money on inferior camera apps.
There is nothing that comes close to Samsung camera application.
Also I have ucam and it's crap. How you can compare that app to the SGS2 Camera I don't know.
Which is a shame. (
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I agree with op here...the camera of this phone is very good and that's y I hate when it goes to waste on custom ROMs...Samsung ROM is very very ugly but utilizes camera quality to the fullest and has WiFi direct and FM but aosp and aokp ROMs r beautiful but camera sucks and no WiFi direct..spirit FM is the alternative at least
When will the perfect ROM come
Hell I would even buy the ROM like any play store product if it has aosp with Samsung like cam and WiFi direct and FM
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
Why don't you use stock ROM with custom theme then?
I'm using Neat ROM and you can flash a custom theme over it (Jkay, vertemus, ...)
There's a lite version in case you don't want all stock Samsung apps.
Not what I am trying to achieve here.
Really want it so the camera application can be shared to all who want it.
Thanks for the idea though.

I'm using that too but it has limitations like the theme is close to aosp but not in full...plus some colours r not very good...some notifications r pure white etc such things...plus changing DPI which is possible in aosp and aokp disrupts the UI in Sammy ROM with aosp theme on it

Me too. I love Root Box but stock camera is really good.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
So I just tried ucam and I must say I'm quite impressed by the picture quality... not as good as stock but definitely better than CM...
Problems with it tho are that it keeps trying to autofocus which I find a little annoying...
Secondly and more importantly... its not allowing to take videos in less than 620*480... which was the problem to begin with... I'm starting to think this is a main CM limitation rather than any application...

The stock camera has the advantage that Samsung can make calls directly to the hardware - fast and efficient. Because the stock camera only runs on Samsung devices.
When we talk about AOSP, now we are talking about generic Android. Google rewrote it for all devices with a general framework - it works on HTC. Now, the hardware cannot be directly addressed. Much more complicated programming - simpler in a way, but harder in others.
Then along comes AOKP. Those guys want to take Google out of the deal entirely, so they again rewrite everything and add another layer of abstraction. And when you think that NOBODY on the AOKP team owns an S2 and they don't even list it as a supported device. It is no surprise that the a large percentage of the features of the S2 are no longer available. For the life of me, I can't understand why putting up Superman wallpaper is better than having a decent camera, long battery life, FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, etc.....

Help needed: Looking for a rom

Hey All,
I'm looking for a rom and having trouble figuring out which one will best suit my needs. Typically, I would just download a bunch of roms and try them out, but I'm stuck in China with a low data ceiling on a very slow connection for the foreseeable future. I really need to be like 80% sure before I download.
I've been running CleanRom since the summer, and that has been a great experience, but CleanRom is no longer being developed, so I'm no longer up to date.
I want something with integrated tablet mode, and I would like something with a volume slider in the notification tray. Wifi toggle switch would also be ideal (I prefer not to use apps for these features). Aside from those features, I just need the most stable rom possible. Additional customization isn't necessary. In fact, pure stock outside of the features I listed would be great. And I'm obviously not looking for nightly builds. I want something to throw on here and leave on until the next Android update.
Does anyone know a rom that meets this criteria? If you have suggestions, I would love to hear them, and then I'll go read some threads.
I really appreciate the help.

Check CM10 with Tablet UI, it should fit the needs you are looking for.

I've been running this rom since 1.1.2 and have been very pleased with it. My current setup is Glazed JB 2.0 with the included Franco kernel, and Nova Launcher Prime for a launcher. I'm also using Pimp My Rom 2.0 for additional tweaks, but from the sounds of it you may not even want that.
Good luck in your search.

You want a solid rom? Team EOS is going to be your best bet. Very minimal isnt loaded with a bunch of crap you wont use. Has its own toggles however are kind of an eyesore IMO. You could just use an app to do the same thing i recommend "Extended Controls" Its a dollar.. but well worth it. LOL reread your OP oops.. :S
Also if you have the pull down.. and swipe in the middle to either the right or the left.. it will swap the Date and clock to a volume slider on the left and a brightness slider on the right .
The only problem I've had with this rom is the oft mentioned error about invalid glazed 2.0 init.. and it's more of a minor nuisance than anything. Functionality does not seem to have a problem, and I'm sure the message has something to do with Glazed being based on a CM nightly.. a bad integer table entry perhaps. Either way, my overall experience has been great with this setup.. buttery fast, and buttery smooth.

Possibly a ROM.

Hey whats up? I'm SirHoover and I am an Atrix HD dev. I've taken a liking to the i (although I don't own one) and your development is just depressing. Might be able to either work with someone getting a usable ROM out there, or build one and have it tested (remember I don't have an i). PM me or comment if anyone is interested in me working on your phone or wants to help.
I agree with the lack of ROM development. I would love to help out but I have zero coding skills. Anything music related I can help out, ha. (Ringtones and notification sounds anyone?)
Hope you can get a hold of a razr i for development.

There's not much bloat on the stock ROM from the retail units and we already have 2 ROMs that did away with that tiny bit of bloat plus are deodexed (and one of them has the 4.2 camera and gallery). So you have at least 2 ROMs you could use as a base.

Motorola is the one who needs to allow that.
Why would you want the circle widget? Ugly waste of space. Cool feature is weather and that drains battery. I would like to have 1% battery mod so there is one more useless feature.
the best features oft a Rom are Speed stability and light battery use, getting rid of bloatware. in case of the razr i getting the FM radio back.
Please, make Cm 10.1 a reality!
