NEWEST TANGO WORKS WITH ALL 2.3.4 ROMS! IF IT DOESN'T, TRY THIS!
Okay, so for those who are having a problem with people seeing you upside down or you can't switch cameras on Tango Video Calls, here's the way to fix that.

KinnySwaggg(Me) - Posted fix
Zinx - Discovering Fix
my2sense - Adding "ro.product.model" change
coupetastic-droid - Finding old Tango
CyanogenMOD Team -For being awesome at what they do!
Things you need:
- Root Explorer from the android market ( or search on Google. I do not leak)
- Tango Installed
If the new Tango doesn't work, here is the an old version http://tinyurl.com/3em4upo. (Credits to coupetastic-droid)
Instructions:
- Go into Root Explorer and allow root privileges
- Go into the system folder
- At the top, press mount R/W
- Then hold down on "build.prop" and open with text editor
- Find ro.product.manufacturer and change HTC to Samsung.
- Find ro.product.model from HTC Glacier to Nexus S
- Save and Quit
- Reboot device
- Go to Tango and test the video call with a friend and you should be able to switch cameras.
Thanks for reading!

Good maybe some people will see it here.
I think you should probably give the credit to Zinx as he is the one who posted the fix.

Don't forget that you have to reboot after you do this.

thanks giving this a try now!

Is this only for CM7 builds?

Thanks! Haven't tested it yet, but I had the upside down bug and I'm really hoping this will fix it. I'm on CM7 Alpha b48!

Yes I think so. This is related to Tango not necessarily the ROMS, Since Tango is the alternate to qik it was upside down but just changing the Mfg to the samsung makes it work. Probably something to due with the Nexus S as it has 2.3 GB installed and HTC does not.

MyTouch 4G - Tango - Still Upside Down
T-Mobile MyTouch 4G
Cyanogenmod 7 (Stable)
Android Gingerbread 2.3
so far the front camera is upside down still, when i tried the "root explorer" fix and rebooted, it just made the camera on my end black so i couldn't see my own face but the person on the other end still saw me upside down.
So I just changed the entry from Samsung back to HTC and saved and exited and rebooted once again. No Dice

This mod does not work if you have the latest update of tango because its not just a rom issue. Is both the rom and tango I believe. The only fix is to download the older version of tangon

Yeah, It doesn't work with the new CM7's. =( sorry.

I have UD and got the latest Tango to work right-side up by changing both:
ro.product.manufacturer=Samsung

and reboot, of course.

Really? It was working for me (both front and rear cameras) today but I was using tango with my friend's iphone4. I've seen both the black screen and the upside down on my MT4G playing with one or the other changes but works for me when I tried both.
Or maybe I was more drunk than I thought!
ROM: UD 3.3.0
Kernel: Faux CFS-LV 2.5.1
Tango: 1.6.7596

All I got is a black screen. =/ Hopefully they make a fix.

This is not related to Tango but I just wanted to report that these changes works for me on the latest Fring (with 4 users). I tested this out with other android/iphone users.
If tango doesn't work for you, you may want to try Fring. Of course, YMMV.
Currently on nb58, Faux CFS-LV 2.5.2

Here you go everyone. For those who still need the old version to make tango work properly.
Uninstall the newer version before installing this one.

Netflix now supports the Droid Incredible 2 look in the market
Found this and thought I should share
rmk40 said:
This patch will replace effectively the entire media library stack with a newer version, allowing Netflix to function on Gingerbread ROMs. The patch does not contain the Netflix apk itself, just the libs to fix playback. As far as I know, the patch WILL NOT work on Froyo.
Several folks on IRC confirmed the patch works. However, I recommend a Nandroid backup before applying the patch. Worst case, you can re-install your ROM to revert the changes. No wipes or anything are needed.
Enjoy!

Explanation: Netflix officially realeased for 5 devices because those are the ones that the devs tested with. They knew there would be issues with untested devices (fcs, crashes, no video/sound, etc) so they coded the app to refuse to play on anything but the tested 5. All this hack does is circumvents that restriction by making the app think you are on one of the supported ones. There some devices which seem to work fine with the app but were never tested by the devs. Such devices as the nook color, the LG optimus S/V. These work perfectly after this while others still may have problems.
0) Root is required. Make a Nandroid backup! (I accidentally deleted by build.prop file and bootlooped my phone)
1) Download ES File Explorer (Or any other root file editor)
2) In ES File Explorer, go into Setting > Root Settings and enable both check boxes
3) Navigate to /system/ and copy/paste build.prop to /sdcard/ (just in case)
4) Open & edit /system/build.prop
5) Change the following lines to make your phone think it is a HTC G2:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
OR
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
6) Reboot the phone
7) Install the netflix apk (if you haven't already)
8) Enjoy
I tested this on my LG Optimus V running AOSPCMod v20110427 (Android 2.3.3). Before this, it told me that my device is not supported, now I'm watching 30 Rock episodes over 3G. I did not come up with this, I stole it from some posts on xda and compiled a nice step by step guide. I take no responsibility for screwing up your phone.
Good luck and Enjoy

Hmmm i got the app running but i only get a blank white screen when im streaming. sound comes through and everything though...

Isn't it problematic though that we don't have perm root on the I2 yet?

Personally , I would wait for Netflix to update their app within a few days and then the Dinc 2 should be supported by it.

ive tried an apk from my incredible, audio plays but no video, i also tried the hacked apk floating around with same results. (no video just audio)

Yeah like I said before we should just wait for Netflix to support the DInc 2

Waste of time and energy. Its more involved than simply changing your buildprop. When it comes down to it, it involves screen res, size, stagefright etc... Sucks. Believe me I know. I have a TB and we are pulling our hair out over this in the Thunderbolt forums!
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App

Anyone have any idea when it might be supported for the DInc2?

They said that there's an Official Netflix update on the 20th, so I'm hoping that it's bringing support to the Inc2/IncS

I am also curious about progress with this.
I just got an Inc2, yesterday, and got the 2.3.3 leaked update for it. I can't get video to stream with netflix, just the audio.

GAPPS IN SECOND POST! So is a temp fix for market. (no longer required for b5r2)
if you find it slow, load up rom toolbox, scroll right to performance, click cpu sliders, and set max to 1.3ghz and change the governor from interactive to either performance or ondemand. its currently at 1ghz and interactive, which may be why it is slow.
ALSO, NEVER UNDERCLOCK UNDER 200MHZ, IT HAS ISSUES!!!!!

FAQ
Q. My wifi tether doesn't work? Why?
A. Dont know. Download Barnacle Tether from the market, that reportedly works.
Q. My market doesn't work. How do i fix?
A. Read above, follow those instructions and it will work.
Q. Why isn't market or Gmail etc installed?!
A. You have to flash GAPPS from above, then they all will appear
Q. Why is it so slow?
A. It isn't. At the start it may be, but let it settle in. Also, it is only at 1GHZ, and on the interactive governor. Go to Rom Toolbox and swipe left to performance and select cpu sliders. I recommend it being at 1.3Ghz and either ondemand or performance. Make sure to set it on boot.
Q. Why does my "?" not work?
A. It does. you have to click FN+X for ? (G2 users: ALT+X) If you want, you can flash OdiemanSAM's latest kernel in his thread, and it fixes the "?" button, but the home button doesnt work, so i left it out.
Q. Does this have Hardware Acceleration?
A. Yes and no. We have a hardware acceleration hack enabled, but its not true hardware acceleration, which is why GTalk doesn't work. We are close to true hardware acceleration, and when we have it, it will be FAST.
Q. Why doesn't GTalk work?
A. It needs hardware acceleration apparently. Look at the question and answer above
Q. Do i need to fullwipe between updates?
A. No, but it is highly recommended. If you dont, you may not get all the features/fixes of the update, and my run into issues
Q. Why doesn't my Facebook sync contacts?
A. This isn't because of some glitch or anything. Google disabled it in ice cream sandwich due to "violations" or something
Q. Why doesn't Flash Player work?
A. As of 16/12/11 it hasn't been updated for Ice Cream Sandwich

Very nice, just wondering did you get the touch screen working, because I remember you said it wasn't at one point. Either way congratulations on this looking forward to trying it out.

two things, one I don't see the youtube videos (unless my comp is being really weird :S) and two judging from the pictures I'm guessing you don't have a way to make keyboard close? If not do the function keys or for that matter any keys on the HW keyboard work?
Thanks for the work though can't wait to try it!

Embedding is broken by the looks of it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GZHY0S2HAU
Edit:
So it boots in to portrait and then almost immediately switches to landscape because its seeing the HW keyboard as always open?

Awesome work man! Thanks for taking the initiative, finding this and porting for those of us "Visioners" itching to sink our teeth into a working version of ICS! I can't wait to download tomorrow morning! Also, I couldn't care less at this point whether the hardware keyboard works, I am just glad to have a functional version to play with.
I suggest all hit xT4Z1N4TRx's "Thanks" button for for this!

I couldn't get it to connect to wifi but that could be cuz I tethering off my phone. but I already adjusted the settings to make it work, shrug. good job so far tho

Hi,
Is it possible to watch Amazon Video with this ROM? Or any alternative way to get Amazon video?

I like MiUi rather than MC7 stock and hesitate to install to void my amazon prime video streaming. Thanks in advanced.

My issues and observations and maybe I can be corrected:
-Cannot access MyApps in the Market.
EDIT: Nevermind, by pushing the app drawer icon on the right hand side on Button Savior that resolved it.
-You can download facebook, twitter, maps, most all apps from the market.
-Video plays from Netflix, although their does appear to be a 1 or 2 second delay between audio and video.

[APP] Google Now for ICS ROMs (ParanoidAndroid&AOSP Confirmed)

Google Now for Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs Only
Found this over on the Sky Rocket forums, and originally on the T-mo GS2 forums, so thanks to: MokujinX5, and of course, the creator, febycv.
Voice is non-functioning on ANY ICS ROM. The only way it will ever function is to have Jelly Bean framework.
Proceed at your own risk.
Tested as working on:
AOSP
ParanoidAndroid
CM9
ProTip: Back up your information.
ProTip: If your device ends up being non-responsive, and somehow starts the zombie apocalypse, I warned you a total of 3 times to be careful, so it is your sole responsibility.
Last ProTip: This isn't my app, all credit goes to febycv.
Requirements
Rooted Device running AOSP
Hands
Procedure
Download this: http://d-h.st/GZ1
Open Root Explorer & navigate to /system
Now Open build.prop in Text Editor.
Edit ro.build.version.sdk = 16 & save.
Now go to /system/app & Rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk1
Now reboot & install the app from the download link.
Now edit build.prop & change ro.build.version.sdk = 15 & reboot.

The APIs are missing for it currently, it was stated several times in the OG OP, and I would appreciate if we could keep this thread down from people posting " HAY GUIZE THE VOICE DUDN'T WURK"

You said it confirmed for ParanoidAndroid, are you insinuating that the Voice function works too ? I'm on Cm9 A6 and I got it to work but of course, without Voice.

Voice doesn't work at all. It may later, but I'm hearing skepticism from people.

What caketime said.
Voice will NOT work on anything.
The mod itself though, has been confirmed to be working on ParanoidAndroid and AOSP

Does it break all voice search, or just inside of google now?

my weather is in Celsius and when I login to Google now it fc's on me. no one else?
EDIT:
seems there are 2 versions floating around..
one is 4.44mb one is 4.45mb
EDIT2:
had issues with 4.45mb version. network error and it would bring me to signin to Google now.
after playing around I got the 4.44mb version fully working (except voice).
EDIT3:
searching not working for me. going back to ics versions.

it breaks voice search all together. I tried dictating a txt message and there was no input at all.

Any idea if voice might get fixed any time soon?

Sorry, like I said, I'm not the creator of this, but apparently, voice will not work unless you're on JB, because it need the JB framework to run.

Question, what ROM where you running?

Not to poop on anyone's party, but what's the point of installing this app if the main function renders it pretty much useless..I'm just saying.

its a no go in CM9 Alpha 6

It does work on CM9 A6 except no voice but you can still manually enter something and it'll work

Well, technically, the main function is to search, voice search is an option, you can always type out your search.
Also, what's the point of installing anything that you know isn't stable? It's the fun of testing it, or getting a preview...

I'm using it on a leaked Samsung ICS ROM with very little issues. It's really cool... Can't wait to have a fully functional "now"!

Wood! Finally, a pure AOSP build for our device! A lot of people have been wanting this, myself included, so I'll definitely be giving this a shot as soon as I'm able to. Thanks once again, man! Cheers

Is it normal to have "Baseband version: Unknown" & "Kernel version: Unknown"?
One noob question, since this rom don't come with superuser, how can I get one?
Edit: Just see OP about root. Sorry

I agree. Loaded up plain Jane ROM on my friends Ls980 (Sprint G2) and I was so jealous. Found my daily!
Thanks again JustinXu!

Alright; so this thing runs PERFECT!
May I also say that the camera on this is the best Gee based camera I have used. Really liking it. The bottom lights do not come on, but I assume that is what keyboard lights are in the OP under bugs. This ROM is perfect. Thank you so much!

MMS and LED lights working?

I would assume MMS works because I could call, get LTE, and text. Forgot to test, sorry.
I got notifications but I didn't test the LED because, well, honestly I don't use it. lol. I wouldn't have noticed honestly. I'm really sorry.
But everything else works fantastic.
Music playback is fine,
calls work fine,
text is fast,
Camera focus is great. Like I said, it is one of the best I have seen in a AOSP ROM,
LTE/ internet speeds are pretty good.
And the battery (at least for my phone) didn't get that warm. (Mine usually gets hot on some custom Roms).
Very solid. Once the bottom buttons work (home, back, menu), it will be perfection. They work fine now, they just don't light up.

@JustinXu you got yourself a winner here custom ROMs are cool and all, but nothing beats a pure stock Nexus 4/5 experience

i can't fall in love with android without a pure aosp rom.
anyway, RC1.1 was uploaded, changlog can be found under the op, download, test, and enjoy it.
if anyone know how to fix the keyboard light, please tell me.

@xboxfanj @ThatKawaiiGuy any insight for fixing hardware lights? This ROM is almost perfect, all that needs to be fixed are the lights

When you built it initially did you get that error with the liblight?

It might be 'lge_touch_core: Allow disabling the nav keys' kernel commit. Try to revert it on your end.
I can make a branch tomorrow for you if you want. Just tell me which one you are using.

i don't think it was caused by kernel, i had try two kernel and get the same result.

Maybe this? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sleepydragon.capbutnbrightness

I know how to get it work with custom liblight but it won't turn off itself.

Has anybody been able to get root working? Tried the link in the OP, and it says that I need to install supersu binary, and force closes. Can't install busybox either
