Hi all,
I know everyone is working really hard on the ICS source for the S2 but from what I've experienced so far its not worth moving on from 2.3.6. I know this is all testing/dev work and things aren't going to run to smoothly but I dont seem to be able to get a stable ROM that works for all the below, at least one of them doesnt work or crashes all the time (I seem to find I'm CWM backup'ing/restoring and titanium apps all the time and restoring ROMS instead of using the phone lol):
- USB utilities - crashes when trying to use it
- GPS doesnt work to well - even with the agps patch applied
- MMS/3G signal doesnt work
- Nova launcher on most crash
- Messaging stops working from the dock - so you have to clear the data to re apply launcher settings
- some other stuff I cant think of right now
If I can put a tick in the box for all of the above I would be a happy man til then I'm sticking to 2.3.6 ROM's (Not moaning, just thought I would put it out there and see what everyone elses thoughts are) :-D

Stick "My First impressions with ..." in your title and you've got yourself a whole new thread for discussion!
There's soooo many threads on this subject already, did you really have to make another?

Just realized what i said...Anyway so many threads out there already regarding ICS just post in there regarding making a new thread. You only get people coming down your thread just cause you opened a new thread on a topic that is already kinda getting boring with all the crap everyday you read on here and people opening so many threads when you could just post in the ones that are already created..
thats what you get when you use a beta version. post the same in existing threads, and do read before posting another thread.
I was actually not going for.ics myself due to what I was reading... but couldn't resist anymore and have been on Darkys (Ficeto) LPB for 2 days now... I'm actually quite happy and surprised by the performance and ESP battery life... probably not.going to switch back to the bread...!

I agree. I have been trying about 5 versions of custom roms with ICS which all users would say are very good but I was very disappointed in performance, and sometimes it would freeze.
ICS.....not yet released!
Be patient now.
U guys need to do a full wipe even if the ROM says no wipe. Otherwise you will definitely get issues. I was having some before I did a full wipe. After the Wipe did a fresh install of a Custom ROM and now its awesome. Definitely can't go back to GB now

No offense.
But it's still in development. "not done"
In due time it will be sorted.
But threads like these will not speed up development.
So please have some respect for those who put in effort.

A huge squadron of super-developers are rushing your way, sir. Their mission is to make ICS work for you... TODAY. Your words are praised, and wishes are their commands, to fulfill your every need. Please, stay put, and wait for them with cookies and milk.
I agree, don't think I will use it till either samsung release it, or sammobile release a proper rom leak that samsung will later release.
Just beta versions at the moment, rather disappointing.
CM9 is supposed to be nice, but I hear too many things not working, & will they never add fm radio support?
So... For now, I'm holding out on 2.3.4

LPB (Stock rooted) has behaved extremely stable so far, in fact the modem seems to more stable in comparison to GB.
Which rom you tried and did you wipe before flashing? LPB is not perfect (after all it´s a leaked beta) but it is more than usable as daily driver

I shouldnt do this cause my mates friends uncle will kill me but.
Ive got hold of a fully working release of ics that samsung will roll out the only reason they arnt is cause they are waiting to time it for the sgs 3 release, they want to encourage people to upgrade to that and then once thats sold well will offer this upgrade for the sgs2.
There have however been reports of phones being bricked due to a time stamp in the kernel stopping the kernel from running before a given date.
So I repeat this ROM will brick your phone
flash in odin as normal

Sure makes flashing custom roms much less a pain in the ass. Also this 1 click root tool works flawlessly on a fresh install of gb. http://www.psouza4.com/Bionic/
Checked out the latest MIUI rom for the d2, found it over at rootzwiki. Can't say i was all that impressed by it. Seems to me to be a bad iphone wanna be rom. I gave it about a day and flashed back to froyo. Tried to flash cyanogens latest 139 build but it didn't wanna happen, so i just returned my phone to froyo.
Kinda sucks working with custom roms on the d2, due to the locked bootloader.

13th angel is working on CyanogenMod 9 [BETA] (D2) it is getting close depends on what you need to work
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-2-roms/199227-cyanogenmod-9-beta-d2.html
I tried miui 2.2.10 and it just seemed to be way to buggy for me. No keyboard lights, i know there's a fix for that. But still its something so small it makes me wonder what else didn't work. The camera seemed to work correctly. It just seemed like it was a FC nightmare. Apps either were slow to open or didn't open at all. And i'm talking about simple things like the dialer.
I do still intend to install Cyanogen just to check it out.
2.2.10 is running without issue for me. The keyboard lights thing is minor, so if that turns you off of a a Rom I'd say it's likely nothing will please you because CM has issues of its own. Regardless, both are great Roms with tons of options you won't get from stock.. Considering how laggy and buggy stock GB is I'm not sure what there is to complain about, but to each his own.
2.2.10 is running great for me to. Tried CM9 and it runs well but no camera is a drawback.
Yeah i decided to give miui (2.2.10) another try and yes it seems to be pretty solid. I was surprised to see pretty much 99% of my froyo apps work as is, without upgrading. The ones that didn't i simply upgraded and they work. What i think happened before was i just didn't get a clean install for whatever reason and it made things super glitchy. Like i said the dailer barely worked at all in the last install, but on this one i haven't had it fc yet so im thinking it was a install problem. Other things also work that didn't before like volume+. Its a nice rom once you tailor it to you're liking. All in all i get around the same battery life as i did with froyo. Which is around 2 and a half hours gaming, 10 hours normal use. I used to use green power and that would increase my battery standby to like 15-16 hours. Anyone know of any tips with miui? People have reported getting like 40 hours? I realize not all batteries are created equal obviously but whats the average you guys are seeing?
Extended battery--real Moto, not seidio or any of those--leaves me around 60% battery at the end of every day. I turn syncing off with power control, use auto brightness which is way better on MIUI than it ever was on Froyo or GB, and get rid of any apps that decide that they can run as often as they like.

Hi to all SL101 owners!
If you are a TF101 owner, you are invited to read this post too, your knowledge will help us
I've been searching in the forums for months for information about the SL101 (ROMs, kernels, Ubuntu, etc.). Every piece of information is in a different thread and in different place.
I wish to organize this information in one thread. I know that there are no many SL101 owners, but we can help each other by sharing our experience with the slider. In this post I'll update the status about everything which related to the SL101.
With a HUGE help by @timduru, we got our Slider back to a brand new life! :victory:
5.0.x or 4.4.x KitKat ROMs
1. Flash the proper compatibility pack .zip file AFTER flashing the ROM.
2. Once the slider boots up, go into Setings-->Language&Input-->turn OFF hardware keyboard. Otherwise it won't work.
That's it!
Note: ICS and JB were removed from here, they are outdated and not functional ROMs.
Root:
- PERI tool.
Recovery:
- TWRP 2.8.1.1 - works great after @sidneyk efforts! Very recommended for 4.4.x & 5.0.x ROMs!
- CWM 6.0.2.1- old but working.
Ubuntu:
- I have no idea... If someone tried, please report
To-do:
- UBUNTU.
- Add links where needed.
- Improve this post
If I had any grammar or spelling mistakes, I sincerely apologize.
If I helped you, please hit "THANKS"
If you have something to say/add/share, please do
It'd be great to get an owner of a slider to confirm/provide rooting knowledge. I've rooted phones in the past, but we are talking years at this point since the last time I've even loaded up ADP or fastboot. The only guide I can find that really dives deep is this one: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...t/31927-frederuco-s-guide-root-rom-tf101.html but as you can see, it's specific to the Transformer. What root method do you recommend for the most current firmware?
Any direction you provide would be great.
I used PERI. Make sure you have the latest firmware (9.2.1.27).

I noticed now there is an apk version, so you should search this forum and try it

I see now that you included "PERI" under Root... I'll give it a try later tonight, I'm just going through all the pages to see common mistakes and corrections people have posted. So you're running ARHD 3.6 (4.0.3), how do you like it? Pro's/Con's of the ROM? Looks like it changes some of the rendering capabilities, noticable gains in speed?
It has the same experience as the stock ROM. I use it since it is rockstable and it is always on my microSD card. I really have no good reason why I'm not on the stock...

Hmmm, well I really hate how there seems to be no community for us Slider owners. I was hoping I could get my buddies "broken" Transformer tablet and then I could really dive into modding and toying around with the Slider to contribute to this thread, but unfortunately he threw it out. That of course didn't stop me from telling him that the issue he was having (screen wouldn't light up, but it was responding to touch and turning on) was fixed by either taking it apart and resetting the connector or simply giving it a few firm bangs on it's bottom edge.
I may look into some Kernels, but they can be tricky... I prefer hooking the kernel into the ROM zip file rather than trying to flash the kernel after.
Prior experience with kernels - starts out really fast and stable with a rapid decline becoming unresponsive. But again, my dabbling was back in 2009/2010 on the G1 and the Mytouch 3G (both of which still boot up and run solid btw).

I am currently running ARHD with stock kernel as well. To be honest, without being able to use Nvflash with our Slider, I have been very scared to try much of anything else for fear of bricking.
From stock ROM to ARHD, I have noticed some speed improvements with a bit of decreased battery life. Or maybe I'm just imagining that.

Well I don't think the actual design of how it all works has changed in 4 years... (seriously, it's been that long!) Anyways, back in the day what I used to do since I never wanted to flash a kernel into a ROM is actually switch out the parts into the install (yes, you have to wipe and install from scratch) so it loaded in recovery... if it doesn't work, just revert back to an old install and try again.
I now have a rooted Slider, I have yet to try a new ROM but I think I'm going to try ARHD first.
Hey there!
Great to see that I am not the only one having a slider
Currently I am on cm10 nightly (downloaded direct from get.cm). I've found the same bugs as in unofficial cm10 rom. But - to be honest - I can live with them. OK, the not working screen rotation makes me angry sometimes
It would be great if the slider could find some devs to work on with. It's a great device in my opinion - but of course I can understand the devs. But i keep my fingers crossed to have a PA Rom on the slider - that would be like christmas to me
So I hope TheMrcool212 can find a way. Sadly I can't post in his thread caused to my less posts (normaly I am present in the german forum - AH)
At the moment I am happy to flash every day a brand new rom on my Note1.
I will keep an eye on this thread and of course I can test some roms. I could also open a thread for an Rom in the German forum Android Hilfe. I am sure there is a big interest for any 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 Rom.
Sadly I have no experiance in developing.

Sounds that you and I are very similar!
I had been too on the CM10 a while till it has driven me crazy XD
I'm waiting to the PA ROM too to be a bit more compatible with our device
Every effort that the normal user or the devs are doing is much appreciated. I'll be glad to hear that you have found something in the forum you mentioned- you can even copy-paste the first post
On my way to edit the OP now... Thanks for sharing!

Yes, sounds very similar.
But CM10 don't drive me crazy. For it is working quite perfect. I don't use the cam on my slider and if screen is off - I'll touch the power buttom.
But the non-rotation is sometimes really bad. I've found a app that solves that problem 8don't know the name now, if you need it I'll will check the name for you), but that is in my opinion just a work around.
But of course: PA on the slider would be a dream!!!:good:

A few questions.
1 Whats the procedure to flash the CM10 for the slider?
2 Whats the name of the program that auto rotates the screen?
3 What are the benefits that you see changing over to JB and are they worth it?
4 Does everything outside of the camera and screen work?
Also thanks for installing the CM10. Gave me an idea. (just use apps to offset the differences) Maybe there is an app to reinvert the camera. LOL
They also said something about the keyboard not doing something or the other when opened. Whats yr xp with that? Respect!!
1.) As usual: Root and CWMR are required. Then do all the wipes (cache, dalvik cache and user data) and format system, cache and data (to be sure and "clean"); after that install CM10 (don't use CM10.1 - only problems) rom and latest signed gapps
2.) There are two apps you can use: Screen Rotation Steuerung or Ultimate Rotation Control. URC works better, but you have to pay for it after one week
3.) Benefits: Works faster and smoother in my opinion. And it gives me the satisfaction to have 4.1.2 :silly:
4.) Yes, the only problem I recognized (as you can see in the OP) are camera and screen work.
Keyboard is working fine, no problems
Keyboard and CM10.
A small precission for CM10 ROM on SL101: keyboard wake up works some times. Maybe 20% of the attemps (I press repeatedly the keys) do work, at least for me.
Hi DK5, can you upload the the folder 'keychars' and 'keylayout' in /system/usr in Stock ROM of your SL101? I need to see what's the difference between TF101 and SL101 of those folder. Maybe i can help you to add support for 4.2 ROMs.

the first one is miui_i9505_shiro_5.5.22_297f4c9327_4.4.zip - works ok but google apps won't work & I can't get titanium to run (freezes at 'checking for sqllite'). I've tried both clean flash and dirty on top of v5. In a clean flash wifi won't enable.
the second one is miui_i9505_rainbow_5.5.22_6a27167d52_4.4.zip - everything was great with this apart from one thing, 3rd party apps can't switch on mobile data. this is shown as 4.4 kitkat so might not be linnked to the lollipop changes, but even with a rooted phone various toggles i tried & more importantly automateit couldn't enable mobile data (it can disable no problem).
so for me, one has wifi probs, the other data toggle probs. both deal breakers so i'm back on the one here.
another Shiro version released today, same link as above. trying it later...
edit: still hates titanium.
Are there any mirror for these downloads? I cannot do better than 3K/s
I'm surprised people actually want to run MIUI. As good as it's interface is, and as beautiful as it runs, it ain't a patch on any TW ROM. Very strange.
And I use a genuine Xiaomi phone as well!!

I don't see why people like MIUI vs TouchWiz or AOSP, or CM.
MIUI is big and bloated and slow and full of Chinese unnecessary dog****. The Redmi Note 4G (my phone) runs MIUI V6 and seems to have lots of problems but when I flashed a Lollipop CM12, improved hellishly, but no camera so I couldn't keep it

each to their own I guess. I've used miui for a couple of years now, occasionally trying other roms but never last more than a few hours before restoring.
not bothered about convincing anyone else tho.

Oh I wasn't looking for an argument, was just hoping you could tell me what I'm missing when I switch away. The phone I have right now, runs MIUI, so trust me, I've got lots of experience, but to me, it just isn't worth the bother. Plus, their update cycle is painful.
I guess it depends though, if you're a developer MIUI really isn't for you, but perhaps as a user, it might be more appealing. I find MIUI a really awkward platform to develop on.

zoinks, wasn't trying to be argumentative so sorry if it came across that way. i was just kinda defending miui a few posts after i was outlining how unstable the latest releases. so if there's an argument it's me against me.
Hello, two questions:
- What is the most stable and most problem-free 7.1 ROM for Moto X Style? CM, Lineage, Slim7?
- Should I wait for the official ROM?
Thanks.

For me it's dirty unicorns. It's really stable and the latest weekly has the camera running superb for me so far with Snapchat and the inbuilt camera app. Also has the most kernel customizations out of every 7.1.1 custom ROM. Highly recommend you to try it out and see for yourself since ROMs are based on personal preference.
And I would recommend: next time ask such questions in the Q&A section or even general section but NEVER in android development section.

Don't take this the wrong way since it is a sincere question. Why not in a developer thread? I have been a member of the CM11 thread until the project ended and it was a developer thread, the ONLY place you could get up to the minute, real help for the custom rom. It was a developer thread especially made for this rom.

Because the question is generic. Fur the most part the development sections should be geared toward resolving issues with ROMs and/or what features the ROM may need improvement on. Asking what people think is the most stable ROM or what not sure not contribute to development.

That is a good answer. No one should be in developer threads asking what is the best rom, etc. But to join a rom specific developer thread is a good place to post rom questions for this device. We need *some place* to discuss this and IMHO, the developer threads are the best, where you get the best answers, and most serious places to get answers. With that in mind, one has to behave accordingly. I.e.: No clowning around for best rom, best games, pokemon, or any other out of place questions or comments. You have earned your Thanks. Thanks!
EDIT: "Generic" question, that is the significant part I missed. There are plenty of places to discuss generic rom questions but not in a developer thread. For specific questions, I would imagine there are threads for that. My CM11 thread was quite specific so the Q&A was most welcome there. :good:

Please read up on it in the forums dedicated for the ROM. That is part of the purpose of those forums: to report issues and allow people such as yourself to determine if the ROM will work for you by reading through them.

I have read through them all. There is no sufficient information. Everyone is like thank you so much for this without saying any issues, so after installation I found everything was broken.
When u ask also people come and say "why don't u try it for urself?" What sort of theory is that? last time all ROMs used to have a section at least for bug list of features that doesn't work, but none of the new ROMs have that. Its like we have to take a medicine without knowing the side effects to know only about them after trying it.

Camera is now stable. Flashlight not as much. Its mostly just slow. Everything else is now stable and is my daily driver, I've been using it not because the camera is better. I havnt found anything broken. Gonna try truepure stock rom today just because I sorda miss it. But I'm gonna stick with dirty unicorn because its working perfectly for me now with mini dynamic apps. Also open gapps aroma also work great.

11.2 RC is what I recommend. That didn't have any problems what so ever except flashlight. I'm on the latest weekly and there is just small changes that don't matter much except viper for android can work on enforcing and magisk is in the settings menu now.

Awesome. I guess I'll be giving it another try. Right now I'm running on their 10.5, pretty stable but I have random reboots
Is this the Moto x pure 2015 forum?

Aicp April nightlies have been amazing, huge upgrade over previous Roms for me, including previous versions of AICP itself. Battery life is poor currently, but everything is buttery smooth and snappy (v4a, Substratum, pixel launcher, moto camera and gallery all working flawlessly). I'd highly recommend trying it, even if you have previously. I just switched my color profile to "deep black colorful" as well and i must say I'm really loving my phone again.

I had major problems flashing DU when I tried. I did a full wipe and tried 3 different gapps, including the recommended mini dynamic gapps and I got constant google play services force closes when it booted up. I couldn't even get to settings to try to close or mute something to look around at what was causing it. I'm using Ground Zero Roms Validus and its great for the most part. Still want to try DU though if I can figure out that issue.

That's weird. I never had that problem before. I might flash the ROM and gapps and make a backup and maybe install it to Android file host so you won't run into any problems. I use open gapps aroma and change the SMS app, clock, calender, and other stock apps for Google apps and it worked fine for me. Even dynamic gapps worked fine. I don't know what the problem could be.

I can understand the frustration, but to some degree it is almost a crap shoot, especially on AOSP. Things can break from one update to the next as the devs work their magic. What worked today may not work tomorrow and vice versa. That is why I recommend trying then out. Devs typically work to improve their ROMs both stability and feature wise but given the difference in usage, apps, and even manufacturing variances in hardware internals, a ROM could work well for one user's needs but be broken for another.
As far as AOSP, I hear a lot of good things about AICP, but I use stock rooted on my MXPE so I can't confirm anything. It works great on my old LG G3 D850.
How?

Sorry for the noob question...I did a lot of custom roms on my SGS2 and SGS4 but when I got my Moto X Pure I have just used it stock.
I have been having enough issues with it that I considered replacing it with a Moto G5 Plus but decided I might as well try a ROM before I give up on it entirely.
So back to the noob question...how do I get from stock to that ROM? Also, can you send me a link to the ROM you are talking about (This one? https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/rom-aicp-clark-xt1575-t3222868/page646)

To your noob question: I'm pretty sure the general process is the same to get a custom ROM as the SGSs you did. Flash the appropriate custom ROM made for your device via custom recovery. That has not really changed since custom ROMs for Android first came into being. The methods of getting a custom recovery onto a device changes though so please use due diligence to get it done if you haven't already.
