I know I'm not the first one to post all of these things, but I wanted to make a concise and easy place for people to find ICS fixes. If you think you came up with something, I will be glad to give you credit.
Fix Chrome Beta
Are you getting a message saying that Chrome isn't working because you don't have Android 4.0 or above on your ICS ROM? Well, there's an easy fix. I originally found this on RootzWiki, but I wanted to make a detailed guide for you guys.
1) Download root file manager of your choosing (I recommend Root Explorer).
2) Navigate to System.
3) Long press on the build.prop file.
4) Select Open With, then Text Editor.
5) Find the line that starts with "ro.build.id" (It should be the 2nd or 3rd line)
6) Change whatever it says after the = sign to "IML74K"
7) Hit menu, then save changes.
8) Reboot.
Enjoy your working Chrome Browser!
Fix YouTube Streaming Over 3G
Simply start playing the YouTube video, then click HQ in the bottom left corner. The video will take time to load and use more data, but will work fine!
Fix Minus Not Showing Files on Your Phone
Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the screen and select "Full Site." You can now see all the files.
Fix Camera Starting on Black Screen
*This may break front camera on Aeroevan's build*
Download this and either push it to system/app with adb. Or, use root explorer to copy it there, then set permissions to rw--r-r--. Then, reboot.
Fix Front Camera Taking Messed up Pics in Aeroevan's Latest Beta
This has worked for me in the past, but it is a huge pain. Every time you want to take a picture with the front facing camera, clear the data for the camera app in manage applications.
Fix Soft Keys not Lighting Up
Toggle Auto Brightness in Display Settings.
If there are any other things people want added, I will do my best to add them.
Big update to the OP and thread title change.

Please excuse this question if it's a bit noobish, but how exactly do I do this in the ICS rom? There's no clear "Manage Applications", and when I go to Apps in the settings, Camera doesn't show up on any of those lists. Any tips?
You go to system settings, apps, scroll the list of categories to the right, and select all, then find camera, click on it, and click clear data.
A big thanks to all!
Thanks very much.
Anyway to make touch responsiveness as well as gb? I know ics has the hardware acceleration and they way you flick or slide matters.. but I really don't like swiping 5 times to go to another screen and until we have an official kernel I know it won't be perfect

Several times I have edited my app drawer order, grouping apps by type on each page (a page for games, a page for internet stuff, a page for utilities, etc.), creating folders, etc. Then I hit Menu > Save, and everything is fine, until I reboot my phone. Then it loses the app order, and a few apps get seemingly randomly moved to their own pages, so the total number of pages grows from about 5 to upwards of 8 or 9. It seems like the most recently added apps get moved, but not always. I move them all back how they should be, but they only stay until a reboot.
Anyone else have this happen? Or better, found out why? Or even better, how to make them stay?
Really? Does nobody sort their apps? Or nobody has had this problem?

I don't sort them in the App Drawer. I leave them arranged alphabetically grid or list. I do arrange the ones I most often use somewhere on the 7 Home Screens though.
They will not stay. It is an annoying problem. I use folders now to group my apps. And I have my apps sorted to stop the spacing issue.

Still happening on Starburst ROM 1.5, so the problem it's with TouchWiz and is not ROM-specific.
I made a backup of TWLauncher with Titanium, so when my drawer gets really messed up I restore data from the backup (killing the running process) and it does restore my app layout as it was when I made the backup. Not a solution, but a lot quicker than re-sorting 50 apps. If only I could figure out how to trigger a save of the layout...it seems to just do it occasionally and I can't figure out what triggers it (certainly not when the Save button gets pressed...as if that makes sense).
Had anyone replicated this issue on TouchWiz 3.5? (or is it 4.0... whatever the flashable one is that's newer than what ships with the device).
I know what u mean but for me its all good after i fix it a second time untill i change then itll revert to just before i changed
It only happened to me on 4.5 thiugh
Good thing actual tw4 launcher doesnt have that problem

Bummer. Guess we have to wait for an official update to get an updated launcher.
are you saving the changes ?
You have to make your changes then hit menu again and save changes.
otherwise they don't stick.
after clicking save don't press anything for 30 secs or so
that seems to do it for me
if i save and immediatly go back it doesn't save

hi all,
after updating my galaxy s2 from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 with kies, i had the same problem about sorting applications page.
i didnt reset my phone before or after updating with kies. first i tought that i might be about this. i was looking for a solution and i read these posts. without resetting my phone i just tried to delete files of TW Launcher.
Settings>Applications>Manage applications>All(tab)
find and tap "TW Launcer"
tap "Clear data" button.
after that my home screen and applications screen look default.
applications screen sorted alphabetical.
i customized my home and app screen again and till now didnt change anyting, i mean didnt forget the layout of apps.
i wanted to share this little unprofessional solution with you =)
if there is a better way i want to learn.
finally i have a question, after updating to 2.3.5, when i tap contacts, it opens slowly, after 1 or 1.5 seconds lag(black screen) it opens. but not always. it happens just sometimes.
do you have the same behaviour?
sory for my english. looking forward to see your answers or comments.
i tried and there is no problem anymore

14th post,
see my firs post
I'm really surprised I haven't seen more people complaining about it but I guess most are not running TouchWiz.
To re-explain the problem I'm having..
You arrange all the applications in different panels the way you want (after you hit "applications" not the home screen panels)
After turning the phone off and on again Or plugging it in to the computer via USB and removing it, all the applications are a mess again. Not the way you arranged them and there doesn't seem to be any logic behind it.
It's not just the way they were the last time you turned the phone off or the last time you plugged in the USB cable.
I also thought having folders in an earlier panel may be causing later panels apps to get bumped around but I've tried it with the folders in the last panel and I get the same randomness.

Even after so many leaks, it seems like samsung engineers are not able to make the stock browser do text wrap, is it possible to extract the Evo 4g LTE and install it on our phone as it works perfectly on that phone.
I don't think so as it would be a sense system apk. If someone were to take the time to decompile the apk and make the necessary changes it might work. Dolphin hd is a very nice web browser, and it's free on the market.

Technically, it's possible. But without heavily modifying it to remove the Sense parts, you'll be left with a minimally functioning browser. Better off using a 3rd party one. You can use a custom launcher to change the icon if that's what bothers you. There's literally thousands of icon packs throughout the web.

Thank you, what bothers me is not the icon, but the Auto Fit ( wrap) text option, working in EL29, and not working in any of ICS leaks...If I install opera, it works in Opera , so I am sure its Samsung Issue..Makes me doubt samsung's team's expertise, and makes me lean more towards Evo LTE

pull the AOSP browser from cm9 and use something like file manager/root explorer to move it to the system/app folder.. change permissions and try that one, i use it and i think text wrap works pretty well for most websites. plus the extended quick controls are money.

download file manager-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lt#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5yaG1zb2Z0LmZtIl0.
download attachment- From Darch's CM9(if there are any issues with posting it here, please lemme know and i'll delete it)
open file manager - hit menu soft key, select settings, scroll to bottom and check root explorer and mount system folders
hit back key, long press on the browser apk you downloaded and hit copy, hit up twice (or enough times till the folder selected is "/") , select system->app
rename "secbrowser.apk" to secbrowser.bak or whatever you like, paste the copied browser, long press on it and select permissions, in the second column deselect group/others. hit menu softkey->settings-> turn off root explorer
if all went well, you should now have the aosp browser in your app drawer
if you dont like, and want to revert changes... just go back and rename secbrowser to apk and delete (or rename the browser.apk->bak) the one you pasted earlier

Yes that is what I wanted...give me some time I will install EL29 take a screen shot and then install ICS an take a screen shot and will let you know...I am surprised that it works on EVO LTE out of the box and does not even after samsung guys working or not working on it for so long...There are a few things like this which I am using to decide which phone to buy next SG3 or EVO LTE as I measure the support and response of the manufacturer by these kind of user issues and consistency they provide.
EL29 vs ICS FF text auto wrap
here I am posting my screen shots...
ICS screen shots
ICS does not even allow pinch zoom..so not sure how to explain...but then that is also the main point...how can i stop pinch zooming suddenly only on this phone?
Have u tried ICS browser or ICS browser + from the playstore? Both are the stock browser but modified, they work well for me but I don't use tw ICS leaks I'm using AOkP
We are legion, for we are many.
One thing problem that many of us have with ROMS for our device is the constant force closes. As I was searching through the Asus transformer Pad Infinity forums, I came across a Memory management mod, which tweaks the heck out of the memory management, which in turn gives better multitasking, no force closes (I have only tried in on paranoid) and a bit better battery life since apps are not constantly hugging the ram. (I have now tried it on HO!NO!’s port of The Unicorn Rom (Sorry I forget the name) and I have noticed the speed difference.

*Go to the Play Store and download SManager, which installs script files. If you cannot download it from Play Store, then side load it.
*Download the "SuperCharger_Starter_Kit_RC9.zip" (no its not flash able. you have to extract it)
*Once it is downloaded, and extracted, given if you are in a computer, put the extracted folder onto your SD card. (If you are doing it on a phone, download the file from the link and extract it with your program of reference. I use Root Explorer)
*Then download “V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC10.sh.pdf” –This is not an actual PDF file. Do not open it with your PDF software as it will not work.
Put that file in the root of your SD card.
Go to SManager and look for the SuperCharger Starter Kit File. Once located, tap on StartMeUp.sh. A window should pop up and at the top it says Run. Before you hit the run button, make sure that SU Skull turns green. (Achieve green skull by tapping the skull)
Follow on screen instructions. It will show everything that it’s doing in text format. When it is done, you will notice.
Now go back and search for “V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC10.sh.pdf” using SManagaer and again, make sure the skull is green before running the script.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO HIT THE THANKS BUTTON UNDER ME IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BUT DEFINITELY DO IT FOR zeppelinrox!

Go to the original thread. Many have done it. For our device we'll I will say that when an app wants to force close the script kicks in and you'll notice the app stay black for about 2 seconds and it opens.

Installed it a few hours ago and it's running like a dream. I've got a few questions though... So I am running trebuchet on aopk milestone 6, from what I could understand from reading the script (which honestly is not much ) is that for me to get the launcher tweaks I may need to do some additional steps? I may have just read it wrong, also should I run ''su'' ''sclean'' in the terminal every couple of days? Thanks and sorry... I'm not too savy with all of this so bear with me. Great find though!

Oh yeah, and I'm runnin cm10, but that shouldnt affect anything bcuz this is supposed to work on jb.

GWIZ
TouchWiz...Hacked and Googlized
GWIZ uses the T-989 4.1.2 T-Mobile Jelly Bean final update as a base. The project's purpose is to offer extra functions and better looks over stock while maintaining maximum stability, while increasing speed and battery life.
Also Aesthetics have been considered and vastly improved over stock.
Summary: Going for it all here, aesthetics, speed, battery, extra functions, updated kernel and ROM provide an improved look and 'feel'. For this project I have used the GoogleGallery and camera as well as the GoogleLauncher and adding back the `clear` button on Notification panel return to the extra toggles features, flashlight, reboot menu etc etc. Features:
Google launcher
NO ADDS
VOL WAKE
FOURWAY REBOOT
23 TOGGLES
CUSTOMIZABLE BOOTANIMATION
NEXUS KITKAT UI SOUNDS
DEBLOATED
CSC TWEAKS
Theme work returned the clear button, =] that was fun and a ton of digging for days. now the blue bars are gone and full function returned...
Much more that I didn't forget.
Xtra Functions
BLN a.k.a. back lighting notification.
ScreenShot on statusbar
PowerButton on status bar. uses = tap to lock the device or hold it down to pull up the reboot menu
overclockable kernel to 2.3ghz... is that an extra function? close enough
Long-Press Menu2Kill app

First of all... If you have rooted or flashed a custom recovery to a device then you have voided that device's warranty. I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD_Cards, thermonuclear war, and no one but yourself is responsible if you get fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me or anyone else for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. Collectively, and at the same time. By downloading you agree that you alone are responsible for your actions and device(s).

Installation Instructions:
WIPES ==> wipe all except external sdcard and internal sdcard
1. Install TWRP recovery. WIPE the following partitions in TWRP recovery ====> /system /data/ /cache/ dalvik cache/ /preload/ everything but internal and external sdcards... unless you want to wipe those as well then go right ahead.. also wiping everything is a good way to start over if coming from builds of another source.
2. Install ROM from /sdcard/ aka internal /sdcard/
3. After flashing completes, reboot
4. LET IT SIT A FEW MINUTES
5. Sign in to WI-Fi if available, then sign into your Google account
6. Choose Google launcher when prompted pick "Always" then "OK"
7. open play store and allow Google search and keep to update...
8. reboot.. if Google store seems stuck it is updating... just hold tight or press menu and hold to kill PlayStore then enter it again a few moments later. Remember to Reboot.

BUGS:
1. FC While using GoogleCamera in video mode and tap screen.. Instead of taking a still shot it force closes. This is not my bug so to speak its well documented on the XDA threads
2. While its not a bug really, but mentionable, before the Google launcher is properly integrated with Google Search, a few apps need to update through the playstore...

I assume this is deodexed?
Rushing, were you able to fix the flashlight toggle delay with this ROM?

nope I tried again just like I always do and nothing I can compute.
Its deodexed.. for this ROM you can just delete the odex files and theme away... I noticed that the md5 sums stayed the same for the .apk part after odexing.. meaning the original app didnt change a bit so just delete the odex part and theme.
just rebuilt the app triple checked it referenced with wanam's guide for Toggles and same result everything worked but after using the flashlight it lagged about 10 secs before becoming responsive.
I have taken logcats of the occurances and have presented them to wanam 's thread or guide to see if anyone can help. its beyond my knowledge at this point and no book to read that I have found,
anyone that wants to help the Flashlight project chime in and or give it a try.
I've noticed the flashlight toggle lag issue with other ROMs as well. The only one which did not have the issue was your JellyBean Odexed 3 ROM. What a mystery haha.
Oh really! I didnt realize that thanks ill look into why maybe that one works better.
I dont beleive I put toggles in that one at all.
Maybe I was thinking of the wrong one. I dl*d. Jellybeast odexed 3.zip
And no toggles but a flashlight app in that rom by tesla

I think the only difference with that Jelly Odexed 3 ROM was that the toggles weren't customizable. Can't change the order, can't remove or add certain toggles. They were all there. So maybe it was from a different source?
I use the toggled flashlight daily.
anyway all is well I guess no complaints or bugs yet.. Bueno
Calender is not working and I'm getting sync errors. Any ideas

use google calendar delete stock ..thanks for the feedback I will delete calendar and rebuild
So far the ROM seems great, fast and stable. I really like the customizations you've done to it. I know this has already been mentioned but my only gripe is the flashlight toggle lag, especially turning it off. That said, the original stock ROM didn't even have a flashlight toggle (thanks Samsung).

downloading now... is the calendar sync fixed? I like the stock calendar better than google... specially the monthly view... in google calendar it does not show the details. I will be flashing Gwiz shortly, I have been running shadow xtr3me until now and it is starting to slow down... thanks!!
Tried to download the Google calendar.. It won't find my calender just spins. Anyone else get the sync errors under the Google account in settings?

One other problem I've found, the built in email client does not work with Hotmail. The stock Samsung one does automatically. Seems to be the stock client in this ROM but I can't get Hotmail working automatically or by manually configuring.
Just flashed and really love it so far! Thanks for your work! Couple questions/issues:
I chose google launcher and removed most of the autogenerated shortcuts on the home screens and now have just 2 screens. Id like to add another home screen for media, how do I do that? Forgive me if this is a silly question.
Also, I seem to be going back and forth from 3g to H+ waaayy more than before. Any idea why this is? Seems to actually prefer 3g but im in Chicago and have always used H+ without trouble.
I don't have a stock calendar so I downloaded Google calendar and it wont sync with my google account. When I click "calenders to sync" it says loading, but nothing happens. Ideas?
The stock email app doesn't work for my corporate account, it force closes. Should I remove it and try to add it again???
Every time I restart, its says "android is upgrading...." ideas??
What do all of the icons represent in the toggle section of notification pane.
Thanks so much for your time.....

To add another home screen simply drag an icon or widget to the right side, it will create another screen.
I seem to have the same problem switching way too much between 3G and H+, killing the battery quicker.
The stock e-mail app doesn't work properly for me either, hopefully this gets fixed.
I also get the "Android is upgrading" every time I reboot, any ideas dev?

I tried dragging the icon over and it just wouldn't work. I can add a widget to the other page but then when I take it away the page leaves as well.
I think I may have gotten a bad flash. It was the first time that I flashed a ROM on this phone. I suppose I will try again tomorrow. Thank you for your reply and keep in touch. I will update on any results that I have.
ETA:
some of the posts are really old for this device, what is the best way to wipe the device clean and start fresh with a new install? I'm using twrp 2.4..... thanks in advance.
ETA2:
So i triple wiped everything and restore my backup through twrp. Triple wiped again and re-flashed gwiz... let it sit for 10 minutes. I have been auto signed in since ive been flashing so....Updated relevant apps through store and let it sit for 10 minutes. Rebooted. Let sit 10 minutes. Things i noticed:
1:
Still cant drag icon over to set up another homescreen.
2:
Corporate email now works!!???
3:
Data connectivity is still an issue. I can see it bouncing between 3g and H+. it takes longer to send sms. Also, i havent mentioned it yet but when i try to place a call, i get a recorded message from tmobile... something about cant be completed. Tried all the options in settings, no joy.....

Google calendar still wont sync with my account.
Will update....

I know there are problems with the ROMs HacxedWiz and GWiz... I have a new Hacxedwiz ROM which I am going to use as a base for future projects... you will get the fix. no worries...
"1:

Yeah I noticed the same the actions.. Google is smart.

What is it that you did to try and fix it??
Look fellas this is old alphabet soup, the same letters are floating around in the bowl. just pull from the bottom and give to the top... Meaning fix it with some new stuffs. I know its hard to figure out what it is that works and doesn't.. that is what i am doing right now so try some new stuff like getting root explorer and dropping some apps in to fill in the blanks... what I gotta spell it out? you gotta read between the lines. expect perfect a little ways down the way this was just the alpha build with no number. -=]
here is a fix for now well its a possible fix I think you all will like it.
