[Q] Galnet MIUI - ICS Build has anyone tried?

I came across the Galnet MIUI - ICS build in Defy and Galaxy S I9000 forums
They have the MIUI build on ICS framework and have weekly builds as being published.
Would like to ask have the developers tried this version, as this also supports our lovable DHD.
Hopefully this might even allow the developer working on the ICS source in the developers forum!!!!

Never heard of galnet before! Looks like a pretty good version too.
But thanks for the heads up, downloading now and will try in the next few hours. Will post my findings when I get home =)

I have been running galmet miui for a while on my inspire runs great no problems

Thanks alot for the input would try it myself.
Hope this would be something different.
Now that the MIUI team has started the ICS development and developers working on ICS source.... We are not away from ICS on our phones

Cutting The Umbilical Cord From Gingerbread

Well, with the latest and greatest roms from some very talented and dedicated devs for the Dinc 2, I officially see no reason to reason to use CM7 or MIUI Gingerbread anymore. I was running both of these earlier in the week and in short order found my way back to ICS roms in very short order.
I can't wait till source fixes the few things that are left to fix, but I can live with what I have for now.
Thanks to the Dinc 2 Devs out there!!!

On gingerbread miui... I like it so much I don't see the point to switching. Everything is exactly how I want it... Plus not sure what is so much better about ics

IMO, not as smooth as it will be when HTC releases whatever the hell they are supposed to release, but running damn fine.

I hear a lot of good things about the ics Roms but I'm still not ready for ics. There are still to many bugs that I don't want to have to deal with. When HTC releases some source or we get a good leak ill jump on board.

Cm9 is great, and honestly is at a caliber that is worthy of daily use. Their aren't any issues I can point to, asside from what's known not to work, that I can say would prevent me from using it for good. That being said, I'm running condemned's cm7.2

I went back to miui gb, after a day of taking easter pix of the kids inside and outside of the house in the bright sun, the auto brightness not working is a killer.

I can't wait for Opensense4 to be as functional as AOKP and CM9. I use my camera on a daily basis, so I haven't made the transition yet to an ICS ROM as my DD (from SRZeus). I am actually about to give AOKP build 31 a go for a few days. I say if you like what you have, why change? But it is nice to see all the hard work being put into ROMs for a phone that doesn't have all the leaks yet.

So, ICS is incredibly stable on our devices now. Camera flash on AOSP is the only issue that I can think of. UKB is a fantastic sense 4 ROM that has a useable flash. Have we reached the "umbilical separation point" that the OP suggests?

Has anyone considered making a GB ROM that worked and looked exactly like vanilla ICS. You know, just to give us a full functional ICS ROM without the drivers? The only thing you couldn't do was use ICS apps and launchers.

[Q] Clean, quick, and PURE ICS ROM?

Seems like any old honkee can make a ROM, nowadays.. I mean, they work their asses off, and that's great, but I'm looking for a daily driver.
I hate touchwiz, entirely. Does anyone know of and recommend an ALL ICS ROM that's worth flashing? I would try Alpha 4 CM9, but the sound of trying an alpha ROM doesn't appeal to me..

You might try Blu Kuban by Rujelus. It comes with Apex Launcher baked in but offers other launcher options (including Touchwiz for those so inclined) in the ROM Updater.
I've been using it as a daily driver since he put it out at the end of April.
Before this I used Venum's Anakonda and had mad love for it as well.

lol cm9 is a aosp rom.. and its in alpha only because we dont have source yet so they cant implement all cm features but everything just about works.. currently im on calks ics rom.. you can disable twiz launcher and use stock. im using sgs3 launcher ux.. either way an aosp rom is as close as youll get to pure ics since it removes touchwiz components

The only thing bad about CM9 is that you can't update profile/prl. Other than that it is a very solid, bug-free ROM.

Well with any luck we might see one of these for our version.

Do you mean pure ics or "all ics"? Because ics is what most of the roms are built from now for our phone. You do have the option to go with calkulin's fe22 rooted and tweaked version. From what I here, its very stable. And its practically stock. And ics! You also have some venum build choices among others. There is definitely something that suits your needs. You may need to do some legwork to find the right one for you.

Which ROM? If you mean Blu Kuban then you obviously haven't tried it. You can have as stock an experience as you want or as detailed as you prefer.
Anakonda was also a very clean ROM, as is Venum Ice.
Calkulin's ROMs are always dependable and Agat has some very nice stuff as well.
Fact of the matter is, you have a smorgasbord of ROMs to choose from and there is something out there for every taste.

I run Alpha 4 as a daily driver. I am actually on the 5/28 build which has a couple new additions over the release of A4 but no real complaints for me at the moment. A ton has happened since Alpha 4. For nearly anyone it should be as good as the ics leaks. I think the main complaint with a few people at this point is connectivity loss and most of those are fixed apparently using the EL29 modem to fix it. Ive had it happen maybe once just toggled in and out of airplane mode to fix it.

Where can I find that?

If you're looking for something clean, MIUI is clearly the best option. It's my daily driver.

CM9 A4 is perfectly ready for daily-driver status as long as you disable LED notifications (huge battery hog with alpha 3, i've kept the same behavior w/ alpha 4 so no idea if it's fixed).
I've consistently gotten 4+ hours of screen on time. Easily goes all day, never had GPS issues, force closes or restarts. Pretty perfect.
Wipe everything.
[and MIUI, but it's about as un-stock ICS as a rom can get looks wise. It's my preferred rom fwiw.]

Legwork is right, my friend! when I say pure ics, I mean stock ics everything. No Sammy dialer, ics stock lockscreen (I kinda like the one that came with calkulins..), pretty much just as close to stock ics as you can get. Wouldn't mind some CPU hacks to help balance the battery and whatnot.

Best ICS ROM?

Opinions on ICS for the DINC anyone?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1719879

I use AOKP Build 40. It has the most features but it is slightly unstable.

I haven't messed around with it on my Inc lately. But I did note that a lot of rims didn't manage to support camcorder. Considering the good camera. I dislike xD

Been using this, and I've had a pretty good experience. Really excited about PureMotive's and Albinoman's work on jelly bean, however: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751992

I really really liked this rom, but the phone is completely broken so I had to go back to GB. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736971
I'd also love a recommendation on a good ICS rom.

Any of the CM9 variants, you can use a third party camcorder if you need it. AOKP has a few more features, but they're not as well implemented imo and it's randomly unstable.

CM9 by drk.hd with Cobalt theme.

AOKP is badass but the battery was so bad I couldn't use it long term. I'm trying drk.hd CM9 right now for a hopefully better battery life.

Evervolv's ics ROM works great for me. Camera works, never had a random reboot, and very smooth.

My vote goes to Linaro CM9 or the other CM9 by hd.drk (although I had some battery issues with it, my buddy has not). Both are snappy and 99% problem free.

Which (if any) 3rd party camcorder apps are any of you using?
I know it's a phone, not a camera, etc etc etc, but with a toddler running around the house there is almost always chance for video gold and the phone is always nearby.
Thanks.

Running evervolv 2.2.1a3 now and have just switched from MIUI v4.
You cant go wrong with either rom. I will say evervolv is running much smother for me than miui did. Video works better too. But you can beat the theming with miui. Though I hear that is broken on the latest port.

There is a rom available that is AOSP like , but based on TW. Check dev thread, I think its by TJohnson.

it will never happen on CM 10 as they are open source. Most the TW gimmicks are closed source. Doubt they are gonna waste time to reverse engineer something that really adds very little to the experience

Only my 2nd day on this phone, but the new TW did learn a few lessons from CM. If you can get your hands on a deodex stock, its just a matter of flashing a theme and using a few apps instead of having the built in customization options. Not the same as CM, but better than than the gs2.

MIUI is based on AOSP as well, I believe. It is not based on TW. The original Evo had a custom rom called Valpak that was a "Senseless" rom. The dev (I think his name was Vaelek) took the Sense based rom from HTC and stripped out all the extra fluff, replaced most of the design elements with with the AOSP "look", and tweaked the performance. Dude wasn't just theming, he really made an awesome rom that ran beautifully. And because he started with a Sense base, there was no loss of hardware performance or bugs (that you usually might have with AOSP, especially if "source" hasn't been released by the OEM).
Anyhow, there was something like that for this phone as well, but I never tried it. If people want a TW+AOSP combination, I would recommend running the leaked JB rom (thanks Freeza and leaker) with Nova Launcher, select the JB theme.

Thanks I did not know that. I'll have to give that a try if it ever comes to this phone.

Skyraider is the name of the ROM I was thinking of. It is a Sense CM7 hybrid- based on Sense but with CM7 settings incorporated. The link is here: http://www.teambamf.net/topic/5-rom-skyraider-sense-43-updated-71811/ If this can be done I don't see why a TW/CM10 hybrid wouldn't be possible.

I remember a while back that this one guy from the at&t, I think, forumswas asking some of us to test a touchwiz aokp hybrid. It was a while ago though, not sure what became of it.
