On the FB17 ROM (Calkulin's rooted), and Rogue 1.2.1 FB17 Kernal, my vibration is sucking really bad. I even downloaded a vibration app to test it, and I can barely feel it on max.
I restored back to Blazer 4.0 to see if it was my phone damaged in some way, and it worked perfect on Blazer.
Is anyone else having this problem? And is there any fixes for this, such as an app to increase vibration intensity?
Thanks in advanced for any help!
I think I remember reading that this is just a bug with the ICS leaks. I don't think a fix has been found.

I've asked dev's but none really gave me a straight reply like they knew. But thanks for the quick answer, i'v been looking at some of the framework but don't see anything that has to do with it.
I am on the FB21 version and it is having that problem still... its just a known bug, and will undoubtedly be fixed with future leaks/the official release
vibrate...
I was on stock rooted FB17, then stock rooted FB21, then Blend FB21 and I keep having this issue. This kills me bc I work at an airport and usually depend on vibrate with calls and texts. I know it's an early stage for these ICS leaks but how great the GB roms had become has spoiled me. I just pray for a fix soon bc it's the only issue that has bothered me and I dont think a workaround exists.
I am bumping this to see if anyone has found a solution. I am absolutely in love with the ICS roms, but every single one I try has this issue. Even CM9 3.1 has it (even though interestingly 2.0 did not...)
I might just go back to GB as my daily til it is fixed.

Just letting you know that I posted a slight fix in another thread. It's the app -sound manger- I'm back on GB right now but I said slight fix BC others have reported that it's still not as intense as before.

Hey guys im curious is there anyone who has been able to fully replace EC05 roms with one of the gingerbread roms availalbe? And in doing so keeping the stability, battery performance, and speed of the EC05 roms? I've personally gone from an amazing experience with ACS SFR 1.2 to Ginger Bamboozled and ERA hurricane rom and personally have not seen any benefits with keeping gingerbread. I notice no battery improvements and the phone has slowed down significantly. The only plus i've seen with gingerbread is the cool CRT off animation. Note i've never run the commands to stop processes that update in the background i.e. DRM and SNS, which from what I read make a fairly big difference with getting better battery life on EH17 roms. So at this point I'm thinking of going back to SFR 1.2 or another EC05 rom. Is there someone out there that can give me some useful tips on how to make the Gingerbread roms run smoother for me or am I just wasting my time? Also I used to get random Reboots on Gingerbread but i've noticed that it has stopped, odd. Oh almost forgot I use my keyboard all the time for writing emails for work and not having the skipped letters fix is so annoying. I want to shoot my phone sometimes.
Have you tried Spare Parts and setting all animations to FAST in it? I am on Bonsai B14 EG22 and my phone is about as fast as it was on EC05 ROMs. I do stop all processes when I first boot and have a few frozen with Titanium.

I don't care if that does anything for the actual speed or not...its a hell of a placebo effect. Another thing is you could oc with tegrak
As of right now, I don't see any advantage of using a Gingerbread Rom. I was in the same boat as you. I tried a few of them but due to the random reboots and keyboard skips, I couldn't take it anymore. I'm now using the Epic Revolution Rom and I love it. I won't be going back to Gingerbread till the official release.

Depends on the apps you have
I'm running the ERA OLYMPUS 1.6 EH06 ROM. I hoard apps and that's really bad for performance of the device and battery. I haven't frozen the SNS/Updates but I freeze the DRM every time I install a ROM anyway. I just managed to get all the apps that like running in the background to not do that by messing with the settings and clearing widgets. I can now last at least 5 hours on battery while actually using the phone. My battery life has been about the same on every ROM I've ever used. I would say to try this ROM with Journaling enabled and running Chris' new EH17 Plus kernel. I am also using the EH17 modem. Everything is working pretty well for me now.
No good reason to keep the leaks. However, if you are converted to ext4 and use the v6 supercharge script its as smooth and responsive as sfr 1.2 at 1.4ghz.

I've been dealing with the same dilemma the past week. I've found that there's really no pros to keeping the gb roms. Although I really like the theme on bamboozle as well as my quadrant stats. Speaking of which, can anyone tell me where I can get the SII lockscreen that comes with bamboozle? It's definitely my preferred lock screen. If anyone can help that'd be awesome thanks!
Thanks for good responses
Thanks guys for all the feedback, I think i'm being swayed more towards the EC05 roms until the release of gingerbread source files. I think the biggest thing now that look at it is the keyboard letter skips. I rely on my phones keyboard far to much to write really fast work emails and no matter how I setup my virtual keyboard or auto correction on TouchPal keyboard or Swype, its just not accurate enough and I waste more time trying to fix the auto corrections. Thanks again everyone and I really hope this thread assist others with making a their choices on which Rom to Choose or which version of Rom to choose. Froyo here I come.... now i gotta figure out if I want to go with Era or ACS lol.
In my opinion, no. After trolling all around using GB Leaks I finally came back to Froyo (Bonsai 4.1.3) because of the stability and speed.
I think its best just to wait for something official when it can be polished and tweaked with.
I too have been up and down the development pages, trying out different roms an modems, froyo and GB. Froyo was cool when i was using it, but I like the way GB looks. I actually had more problems with the Froyo roms than with GB roms, but that could be bc im getting better at rooting.
Right now im running RandomROM 2.3.4 on the EG22 modem with generation x theme. I get a couple of framework fc's throughout the day, but it doesnt seem to actually fc anything. I seem to just get the notification. battery life is amazing. I used to have to charge my phone after only 6 hours, even with light use. Now I dont need a charger until the end of the day, even with moderate to heavy use. I even use it as my wifi at home for xbox and whatnot. Touchpal's hardware prediction is pretty cool, although I havent really noticed much key skipping without it. I'm still new at rooting, so I don't do too much with oc and such.
I get about twice the battery life using RandomROMs hawk v4 vs any of the ec05 builds. Haven't experienced any TV's yet and only one random reboot after running the v6 script.

Even tho i promised myself that i won`t flash any other ROM till an OTA ICS, but my urge to try ICS became almost unstoppable. So my question is simple, which ICS port is the best to be a DD? Please report your opinions, thank you.
And sorry for another ICS post, I just had to
yea I second that!!
raver's blackedition for me so far.

I'm still on Racings's original skyrocket port. I tried Easydoesit but was unstabble for me for some reason (even after several wipes/flashes) so I restored a nandroid of Racing's and I think Im done messing with these until the official ICS update rolls out OR one of the devs fixes the naggy little problems we have right now.
I'm very happy with Racing's Rom, its definitely a suitable DD for me. If Instagram worked I'd have practically no complaints! Hope that helps

Yup. This one is best till now for me in all aspect.
I move today to perfection just to give a shot .
But racers 1st original has best battery life and stability too.

easydoesit v2.2 was really stable for me...for most of the issues, i just wiped cache and fixed permissions and reboot and they were no longer there (the reboot/shut down bug or a couple of FCs)
i really wanted to stay on ICS because it was so smooth and the interface just looked so much nicer..."orientation control" is the app i chose for my auto-rotation work around...it puts a toggle in your notification bar and all you have to do is click on it and select portrait or landscape...this was actually better than auto rotate for me because on GB sometimes my apps would auto rotate when i didnt want them to when i barely tilt my screen
the ONLY issue and reason why i reverted back to GB is because you cant force orientation in the camera app...i got tired of rotation pics after i took them and you can't flip recorded videos so you have to record them in landscape mode
oh and for some reason i couldnt get root explorer to mount properly...it would mount but if i deleted anything it would magically reappear...but some people said they got it to work
thats as stable a ICS rom as your gonna find and the dev responds almost immediately
Ravers or easydoesit

I'm here to discuss a problem that had annoyed me on the galaxy s phones and annoys me here. Its the annoying wake lag. I even stopped using an external sd card hoping it would increase speeds... I had the problem on ICS and returned to gingerbread hoping it would fix the problem but it didn't. Its not horrible but two to three seconds that make me want to pull my hair out. I'm on stock kernel rooted gingerbread. What can I do
I believe there's a rom.. caulkalins something I think, irdk.
Geeze I'm not much help but I JUST read the info on a rom and it said..
Something how it uses setCPU embedded and it activates and overclocks only when waking, to boost speeds.
It exists! Browse all the major rom threads you'll find it!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I believe that is a tweak baked into calkulins gingervread buikds. I am not sure whether its in his ics or maybe kobridge's tweak pack.

Which ICS leak was the most stable? I'm convinced the FF18 is bug as heck... I read somewhere that the FD26? Which one in your guys opinion was most usable? I'm considering the agats kernel with what ever leak to give it a try

Just my 2cents. I can't compare leaks because I have only tried FF18. That being said, I haven't run into any problems on it so far. Plus since FF18 is official now I would go with that. You won't get any support for the older leaks now that FF18 is official. So all of the new stuff will be for FF18.

That's so true, I mostly don't care about themes on a ROM or such.. I'm always just trying to find that one stable ROM. I might try the last calk 1.6 ICS ROM to see if it works pitch good... the FF18 build for most randomly gives button issues.. where u have to turn screen off and on for them to work.. it makes showing off ur device to friends bad
Cap buttons started having this problem two builds ago. Asking with lag wake up.
It's my phone...any mis takes...sry
Try an aosp rom like cm9 or aokp...they work great and don't have any TW bugs. They're still in test mode though so u might a few minor bugs like screen glitch, but not a deal killer.

Try the Blue Kuban ICS rom. The only ICS rom I've been using since GB and it is very stable.

I've run every leak since they started appearing 3 months ago and flashed at least 40 ICS Roms. Never had a problem with my buttons. Most issues were caused by not doing full wipes and trying to flash a new Rom over an old one without starting over.

I assume some devices just don't play friendly. I perform state of the art wipes. format x2 and calks format all, not the data preserve. Only the recently FFX builds gave me the captive button issue. The FE builds on the other hand are smooth. Only possible solution I found for some FF custom roms (thanks to our awesome devs btw) is to disable captive lights and haptic feedback, along with agats kernel, and a bit of help of tegrak help.

Good info Febby. I always turn off haptic feedback so never had issues with that. I wipe the same way and its good advice. Factory reset twice and then Calkulins format all zip
Bringing an FF18 or FF18 Source built kernel into the mix is half of having FF18. I can't really say that any of them were any better. I think one of the later 4.0.3's was good and then 4.0.4 brought some issues back. I am a CM9 man myself now but id tell you to just play with modems if your main issue is network speed.
I'm still rocking FE22 ROM with FF11 modem and AGATs newest source built Kernel. It runs amazing...

Similar to the other thread where you post the bugs in the ICS leak, are there any in the stock ROM that was just posted today? I'm very interested, but I don't wanna go too far if it's riddled with issues.
I have gathered that the keyboard isn't backlit, but is there anything else that isn't functioning properly?
I think the CWMR ROM posted is just a repack of the same ROM, so any bugs present in the original leaked ROM would be present. Cant speak for everyone but other than the keyboard backlight, ICS is running great for me. I had a battery drain issue but it appears to have resolved itself.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but what came out today is the same ROM, just in a different format. Be patient, people are working on improving it, and the official version should come out soon as well. CM9 or 10 isn't in the too distant future as well, I'm guessing we'll have it by Thanksgiving.
I gave up using it, because I had constant crashes (not actual crashes, the system was still running, ie Pandora kept playing but the UI stopped responding) and I got molasses slow wifi. Most people have reported no wifi issues, however.
OK, that's quite alright. Thanks for the reply.

The thread i posted today is the exact same as the original post about the stock ICS, i just made this one flashable. Also i havent had any problems with it other than the backlit keyboard. Im making a debloated one ATM so you can look foward to that with a couple of tweaks.
