[Q] AOKP vs. Gummy vs. CM9? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

as stated... which is your favorite and why? what did you not like about the other two (if you've tried them)? I've only been on AOKP and curious if I should try out one or both of the others (I probably will anyway, lol). I've had a little issue w/ my keyboard lagging slightly when typing lately... thinking a switchup would fix it. Thanks for input...

Eclipse
That is all
Lol
not one of those choices, but i love the speed and stability of eclipse
Never noticed any keyboard lag
Don't know if anyone ever tried this out mentioned it before But I'm sure it's been attempted,
Clear cache on keyboard, clearing data for it will most likely wipe your dictionary too so just try a cache wipe on it,
Wiping the app data used to fix the keyboard issues on the droid x2, not sure how it will work on this device. Good luck!

[Q] So is there progress for swype on AOSP roms?

Is there progress for Swype on AOSP roms such as CM7 or.. Others? I left Sense-based roms from EViO and while it was very fast, I don't see myself going back. The only thing I miss, however, is swype. Now, I know that XDA is the best damn crew of developers when it comes to 'phone' software. I still haven't seen any threads about it though. Is there progress?
What kind of progress are you looking for? Find an .apk for it, install it and voila! Now you have Swype on your AOSP ROM.
What I am doing: sign up for beta. Then install the beta.
While waiting to be accepted, try this: take swype.apk from system app and libswypecore.so from system lib, and push to the same places on cm7. Worth a shot. Just backup first.

Plus the Beta is more up to date than the copy that is getting shipped with 3.70 roms. It has more features and functionality.
I'm going to quietly post and let this die..
I can't believe I didn't actually try one of the .apks. I thought I heard that swype was only being developed for sense-based roms but thinking about it now I realize how stupid that is. I also thought that swype had some kind of authentication but I don't know where that came from. Wow. I apologise for wasting youse guyses time.

Best ICS Rom

PreludeDrew, Kush Deck or JaredTheGreat? Wondering what people are running out of the three ICS roms.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I installed Team Blaze's (Jared) newest ICS last night and was running Drew's prior to. I would say at this point they are almost the same... each one is making improvements... As for my experience... Jared's is solid and I haven't ran into anything broken. There are some things a little buggy (like TTS errors when opening Navigation, but TTS working just fine) but I haven't found anything broken. They are all working on making the camera better and it works on Jareds. These aren't final releases so I am good with what I have! Can't wait until these things get smoothed out as ICS is tight.
Jared The Great all the way baby.
ICS Question
I have been following these ROMS.
At least on the home screen they appear to be still pretty buggy.
I don't know if the MMS is working, the camera, all that stuff.
Just curious if someone can tell me what I need to expect after installing.
I am currently using Synergy non-god mode and hate it. It is SO LAGGY. It takes a good 15 seconds to get the icons to populate my home screen. I need a new rom and was wondering if these were worth switching too.
Thanks all.

Switch to MIUI. It is the fastest, most customizeable rom out there.
You may not like the no app drawer thing. But i just made a folder and put all the apps not on my screen in there. Now thats my app drawer!

He was asking about ICS not MIUI if I'm reading the first post correctly. MIUI fanboys are as bad as apple fanboys...
I'm running Deck's alpha 5 and it's really solid. Trebuchet is buggy but that's a known issue and the solution is to run Nova instead. It's definitely worth flashing an ICS ROM to get a feel for how they are.
james
I have run both Jared's and Drew's. Both solid build... both buggy as hell. They are still working on them. To be honest... the best one right now will probably be the one with the latest release.
Decks Alpha 5 for me with CoD tweaks. I haven't tried any of the other ones but this one is rock solid for me. There are quirks but any rom has those. Honestly I have better battery life on this then I ever have had before.

Uh yeah i know wut he was asking..i can read too. But ics isnt that great. Its gb with a theme and add that quick app thingy.
MIUI is actually different in looks as well as useability. And Im not a fanboy. It just is the best all around rom. Alot of people dont like the iphone like no app drawer as do i. But once u have one in miui it is by far the best rom available. For sure it is the least laggiest evo rom. And by the way these are facts. And if u disagree u must be a ics fanboy or just a straight up MIUI hater. Bu bye!

Gentlemen, best is predetermined to be biased upon your own preferences; there is no right answer here. Yes, ICS does have some nice features, like improved voice commands, better folder management, ect. And for MIUI yes it is a lil 'iphone' like in essence, but different from all the rest. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but if you change the launcher, you fix the 'no app drawer' issue, which some people tend not to like.

Yea ur right. There is no right answer. I was just telling the guy on synergy that was laggy. That miui has no lag. And that other guy starts saying im a fanboy, thinking im referring to the OP. When i clearly quoted who i was replying to, and it got me in a **** talking mood. Sorry..my bad
And yea u can install a different launcher, but it takes away the uniform of MIUI, so i just made me a folder on the dock and put all the apps not on my screen in it

King Kang 3.3 on Epic 4g Touch

Hi.Last night I flashed over from PA 2.54 to King Kang 3.3. Everything works great except that my phone keypad is too large and the numbers kind of overlap. Also, on PA, I liked the tablet mode, but when I set the tablet mode on King Kang in PA settings, the status bar doesn't change to the bottom of the screen like it does on PA. is there something I'm not doing correctly? For hours, I tried adjusting different settings and can't get the same appearance as PA. Thanks for any help.

this isn't helpful, but I had the same thing, rocked it for about 12 hours and just delt with the problems, the dropped back to AOKP. you've already done way more work on it than I did.
sorry to be not-helpful, but I thought it was funny that we bot didn't like the same thing...
If you take a few seconds to read the third post of OP, I give clear instructions how to enable tablet mode.
Once you figure out how to do it, you won't use any other ROM!

Because if they had READ the OP for the Rom, it clearly states the steps needed to be taken to achieve tablet mode.
1/2 - 3/4ths of question posts could be eliminated (especially from the Rom Threads) if people would just read.

Sorry guys. I'm sorry I posted this originally; I didn't mean to cause an uproar. Sometimes steps can be missed, even if it is posted. Evidently multiple people including myself missed it, which is why I posted the question. I've flashed many Roms, and seen this same issue in every OP.
I know what happened buddy. It's not a problem, that's what the forums are for. He was just saying most problems people have questions for have the solution right on the op. People just neglect to read it and ask questions first. NO need to feel bad for asking questions though.
Always remember almost any issue youll come across, someone else has already seeked a solution for. The op almost always has the answer you need in it. Or search will find it if not.

Missing Features in Cyanogen/CM Based Roms? Please Help!

Hey there xda!
I'm on the latest version of Carbon and I must say I think its the best rom that I've tried so far..
However there are two small things that concern me about it!
I can't find a way to delete any homescreens? It comes with 5. I've checked everywhere that Its been on other roms I've used.
Second, I really want all my camera pictures to go straight to the SD card, and there seems to be no option for a thing like that..
Anybody know any solutions to either of these? I Think they might have been left out by accident...
Anyways thanks in advance for any help, its always appreciated!
Thanks

Unfortunately not all ROMs are created equal. The hone screen issue if isn't in the settings I can suggest something like Nova or Apex launcher and you can set your home screen amount to whatever you want.
Not all the ROMs have sdcard save options, there is a aosp camera nod you can install that has that feature. A simple search will point you in the right direction.

[Q] Liquid Smooth 2.3 Screen Flickering Issue

Hey there,
Unfortunately I have another problem with Liquid Smooth. I tried searching this bug with no luck. The screen flickers rainbow stripes (best way I can describe it) when I launch the camera from the lock screen, when I hit the power button on the lock screen and occasionally when I go into settings. Any ideas why this could be? or is it just a know bug? This happened much more infrequently on 2.2 but still happened.
Let me help you rack up 10 posts, and then go ask in the thread as this is rather rom specific. If anyone in there is able to recreate it after you post, then it's an issue with the rom itself

Issue seems fixed now. Completely factory reset and reinstalled a few hours ago. Seems to be working fine! Weird how it was happening before update though as well and then happened more frequently after. Thank you Whiplashh and Cnexus for your help!
I think this is just a problem with cm/aokp/aosp type roms. CarbonRom did the same for me.

I am experiencing the same issue with the LiquidSmooth 2.4 for Verizon. I recently did a clean install this weekend and everything was fine until the screen started flickering randomly. The flickering looks like white noise with different colors lined up horizontally. The only constant to this issue seems to be tied to the stock android messaging app.

AT&T S3, Clean flashed 2.3, dirty flashed 2.4. I agree with the SMS app being involved. Happens once I open it, particularily when sending/viewing an MMS. Force closing the app seems to fix it.
