[Q] ICS camera Drivers - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I just flashed a sense 4.0 ROM but the cam doesn't work I was wondering if I could use the drivers from the Stock ICS camera from the ROM that I was using (ICECREAM JIBWICH 2.0 ) because it has a woking camera ?

Well if you know how to pull the drivers from the stock rom and put them onto a custom rom go for it. But I have not had camera problems on either the CyanogenMod 9 beta 13, nor the EliteMod ICS rom I'm using now on my G2.

There is no stock ics rom for our phones. The camera that is working with some custom ics roms are patched/hacked and not yet 100% the only ones that work are all compilled from the same rom and will not work across a different base. If you have a sense rom that you like you need to have a hacked camera for that rom. If it were as easy as stealing a cm9 based camera mod and putting it in a sense rom it would be done by that rom developers by alapha.x
Until the drivers for ours or similar device is released we have to happy with what we get. And until then expect flaws

Stable Gingbread Sense ROM

Hi,
Can anyone point out to me a Gingerbread ROM with the latest HTC Sense not (3.0 obv) that is bug-free or more so Stable enough to use and is not modified to an extent that it wouldn't be considered as Stock.
I've looked through the Development section and found ROMS that meets some of my criteria but the common this is a 'Camera/Camcorder bug of some-sort.
Thank you!
Rcmix s rom v0.8.. im using the cm7 version so te cm7 tables need to be flashed.
then a fat32 and an ext3 partion on your scard.
also use a2sgui from the market to move dalvic to your ext partition to free up more internal memory if you have alot of appa
been using it for a week or so without any problems, although the video camera doesnt work.
But its better and faster than those based on the leaked desire gingerbread rom, an has the better sense version.
Well i tried both RcmixS and InsercoinS and Cool S ...based on AceS rom,and they're slow as hell >_> Stable,but slow,not worth it (yet...i have hopes for the future).As for the Roms based on the leaked Desire Asia WWE rom,they're all stable,but still have some bugs and speed issues...my opinion,wait a bit more until the Official Europe WWE rom comes out,and some1 makes a good rom out of that
I wonder if the final gingerbread rom from HTC will be 2.3.4 instead of 2.3.3..

Doubt it, we don't even have a front camera.
I am thinking more the bugfixes for the '3 second delay' stuff that 'may' be included in 2.3.4
is it worth the effort to keep sense?
i left the stock rom a few months ago and tried out cm, then gingervilain and now use oxygen/devnull
i quickly decided the massive speed increase and extra memory was worth not having sense.
I have the same problem. A Gingerbread ROM based on the new Sense with the video recording working...
I'm using insertcoin Rom and i'm happy with this. I tried couple of other roms, but this one is really fast and this one have many quick updates. IC' s developer is very hard working man ;-)

I'm currently using InsertCoin A2SD CM7 HBOOT/A2SD+ STOCK HBOOT v15, and I'm very happy with it. Using it from v02.
InsertCoin is the best rom 2.3.3 with sense currently. You should take the A2SD+ because you'll don't have to change the HBOOT.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
I've tried just about every GB sense ROM besides the Desire HD versions and they all have bugs but they are stable and ok for everyday use. The best GB ROMS are the AOSP ones, CM7, GingerVillain and Oxygen if you want a complete GB experience.
I favour AuraxTSense as my ROM of choice as it meets my needs and there is a GB version out but with bugs. I'm going to wait till all the bugs are fixed then make my move, as right now 2.2 ROMS are flawless.
Sent from my AuraxTSense Desire
its likely to be only a month or two before the dev's can be working on an official gingerbread release anyway.
i cant wait to see what they will do but i expect it to be a lot better than HTC manage
RCMix S went v1.0 today. It's really stable and fast as far as I know. I'm on the v09 at the moment.

what is AOKP and AOSP

Hi everyone
Can u tell me what are AOKP and AOSP roms?
what do they do?
are they better than sense roms?
AOSP is an original ROM unmodified as Google intended it to be.
AOKP is based on AOSP but has some slight modifications but not modified to the extent of CM (Cyanogen)
As to if they are better or not well that is a matter of opinion, in terms of performance yeah all AOSP, AOKP and CM ROM's will run smoother and faster than a Sense ROM but there are plenty of people who enjoy the functionality of a Sense based ROM and those who don't.
Thank you! always wondered what that was.
KN
awesome............ dud....
aosp = android open source project
aokp = android open kang project (link https://sites.google.com/site/androidopenkangproject/)

and what's the difference between aosp roms and stock roms, besides e.g. preinstalled samsung apps?

It's not really about the Samsung/Sense apps more about the whole "layer" that i.e. Samsung/HTC put over the basic rom, (touchwiz and sense in the case of samsung/htc).
So if you'd take those layers/apps away you would just have the basis which is just AOSP.
Personally, AOKP is better as it takea some influence from CyanogenMod, which is THE most popular ROM available for devices

new website for AOKP

They are finally in milestone 6 , ICS final and will start in JB from fresh! That's awesome news because DHD is still supported. There's pics with DHD working with JB.

So do you need clockwork recovery to flash or use aokp?

No. AOKP ROMs are like any other ROM; they can be flashed from any recovery compatible with your phone.

Generally, can we classified ROMs as AOSP, AOKP, CM, MIUI, Sense. Am I right there is other category ?

It depends on the phone. For example, on this phone we have Sense because of HTC; other phones will have other overlays (like Samsung's TouchWiz). Also, some ROMs don't reside neatly in one category; for example, we have codefireX because of Team Codefire, which is descended from AOSP, CM, and some AOKP ideas.

[Q] Which ROMs have everything working?

I really wanna ROOT my phone in preparation of an official CM9 build. My old phone has a few apps that require ROOT and I'd like to continue using them, however, before I can install them, I need to be ROOTed and there's little point in me ROOTing and then giving up the full functionality of my phone. Thus I ask, which HOX ROMs have everything working?
I use

I use leedroid. i tried jdroid, cm9, HD rev, but none of them was satisfying. i find leedroid the best. everything works.
i'd like to have the cm9 keyboard tho.

you cant go wrong with charmeleon. everything and more working

Arhd and charmeleon for sense roms
Jdroid or paranoidandroid for aosp or less sense roms.
I tried most of these
Typed with XDA Premium on OneX
I vote for ARHD and Team PkMn ROM - Charmeleon which will be upgrade this night..
For non sense ROM i really like the features on ParanoidAndroid..
I like jdroid as lessened sense. Keeps sense beats and sense camera.
Although ARHD and Charm are still my choices when going for sense roms

An imoprtant question to devs

I dont know how far i am saying it right im a noob but some questions going in my mind,
1. Is it possible to port a rom with samsung UI for wildfire?
2. If porting of rom is possible from galaxy mini to wildfire then i guess we might have a stable rom for ics
3. Some other phones have also attained stablility with their custom ICS versions so it would be a great option to port ICS from their built
-requesting your generous attention. :fingers-crossed:
1. By samsung ui do you mean touchwiz. Actually it may be possible but most people dont bother.
2. Actually for a rom to be stable the base rom should be perfect. Like our cm9 has native cancorder bug so it will be present in every cm9 based rom.
3. This is the same as no 2.

[Q] Stable daily ROM recommendation?

Hello.
My friend asked me to reflash his Desire Z, so I'm looking for some stable daily ROM (ICS or higher).
For now I chosen:
MIUI 4.2.28 multi
AOSP 4.2.2 Jelly Baby (really not sure about this ROM)
Sensei 1.3.0
Sabsa Prime v15
any other tips?
Thanks
Normally best dd ROM questions are not to be asked, but I assume sense you are doing this for a friend you won't easily be able to flash a bunch and try them out as what is normally suggested
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
You will find a list of all ROMs here, many will say the most stable and fastest ROMs will be gingerbread based as that's as far as HTC brought this device. But many 4.x ROMs are quite nice for dds
Best recommendation is to flash a couple of the "more popular" ROMs and make nandroid of each and place on SD card, then instruct your friend how to easily change between them so s/he can decide for themselves what is best

Thanks for reply.
I know that it's not possible to say one ROM, but on the other hands always exist ROM which can't be marked as very stable (e.g. KitKats build now)
I really missed your list, thanks for info
(Because I already found some list, but it wasn't updated for a long time)
Anyway thanks for you work
BTW the first 3 ROMs has same link in your list
Also still I need to downgrade the firmware?
