Develop Bugs

[Q] Pure Google ICS Build?

Anyone working on a plain old vanilla Android 4.0 port? I'm currently using a CM9 build, but I personally prefer vanilla experiences when it comes to OS's.

I'm not certain but I remember seeing that someone had ported AOSP for the Fire a while back and it has just recently been updated with the 3.0 kernel.
Look around the development forums to see what you can find. I'm pretty sure I saw something about it either in one of the AOKP threads or the 3.0 kernel thread.

Can anyone point me to where I can find this, if it exists? I've looked everywhere.

[Q] Which Cyanogemod rom

Hi Guys,
I have found Cyanogenmod to be the most stable rom for my Desire HD. Which Cyanogenmod rom have you found to be the most stable/user friendly (7.1, 7.2, unofficial cm10 nightlies etc)???

7.2 is the most stable if that is what you're after. Although it's Gingerbread. CM10 is good enough for use as a daily driver with slight bugs. Personally I'd choose Jellybean over Gingerbread anyday.. but if you're really paranoid about stability.. go for 7.2

With regards Jellybean, would you recommend Cyanogenmod or a rom from another dev, if so which Jellybean?

JellyTime by randomblame is the best Jellybean ROM around at the moment to be used as a daily driver. Thanks to the dev its mostly always in sync with CM10 changes with regular updates and offers extra features from aokp and such. Stability is also good.

I'm using JellyTime as my Daily Driver since Release 9.1, had some of the dicussed Issues on the development Thread, (like randomly rebooting, and bad Music Quality on Earphones, but if you follow the Development, it's nothing that can't be fixed with a little effort;
Latest Release (R24) is running smooth and without any issues for me, after full wipe an a clean Install.
Some People reporting battery drain Issues, but this seems to be device-dependent, so you have a good chance that this Problem will not come up for your DHD.
Give it a try, and i suppose you will never go back to GB...

Freezing during/ after phone calls

Hello I hope you are doing well. I have tried to flash Liquidsmooth and Cyanogenmod nightly 3/16 and both of them will freeze during a phone call and or after a phone call. I tried the sonic TW rom and have had no issues. Can someone please let me know what the issues might be and how I can fix them. Thank you so much I need a very stable ROM as I use my phone for work.

Were those 4.2.2 roms? Those arent quite stable yet, theyre still working on them
Flash a 4.1.2 / MB1 / MA6 ROM if you're looking for as much stability as possible

I believe for Liquidsmooth that error was caused by the most recent release (titled STABLE). I know that RC2 didn't have the same issues with freezing on phone calls. The RC2 is available on their goo.im page.
But, like CNexus said, 4.2.x Roms will inherently be a less stable than TW-based Roms. That's just the way it is when you're developing something that's not been officially released for your device. In the 4.2.x Roms that I tried, it was stable enough for my (non-business) needs.

Seems like I've been hearing this issue on various threads since the new CM kernel was released. CM is still in nightlies so it is not 100% stable. But it could be a lot of different things.

I appreciate all the help is there any good roms that are not TW that are stable MA6? If you could point me in the right direction. I tried searching MA6 and got kernels?

Well, I don't know exactly what you mean by non-TW-based MA6 Roms. As far as I know, MA6 Roms are inherently based off of touchwizTW (since it's a build of Samsung's Sprint Rom). I assume you mean Roms based off Android version 4.1.2, which is the version that came with MA6.
I know freeza has gone and removed a lot of TW features from his Galaxy S fre3 Rom. It's currently on MB1, which is only a minor upgrade from MA6.
But for the most part, the MB1- and MA6-based Roms are pretty solid in terms of stability. I'd recommend going to the Rom Wiki created by Hamspiced. I have no idea when it was last updated (maybe a week or two ago), but it has a lot of links to MB1 and MA6 Roms (as well as a lot of AOSP, etc. Roms)

[Q] Project Butter

I'd been using ICS for several months, but a few days ago I decided to try JB (chilly's CM10) to see if it was stable enough. So far so good.
Since we don't have a proper Jelly Bean kernel for the Incredible 2, I'm guessing we don't get Project Butter. Is that right? As far as I can tell, the UI responsiveness in 4.1.2 JB is about the same as 4.0.4 ICS. It's not bad, but I don't really notice an improvement. Am I right about not having Project Butter, or do I have it but not notice it?
My kernel version is 2.6.35.14-ae-15, which I think is an aeroevan Gingerbread kernel.

here is are a few links to 4.2.2 ROM's with the hacked chinese 3.0 kernal. I've been on Evervlov for the past couple weeks and its pretty stable. I just flashed.

You will need to flash gapps from Here

Oh, interesting! I didn't know devs had already started releasing ROMs based on that Chinese kernel. Still, didn't HTC release that kernel for ICS rather than JB, and if so wouldn't that still mean no Project Butter?
I guess what I'm wondering is how much Project Butter depends on having a kernel that's been tuned for Jelly Bean, updated drivers, etc. If the 3.0.16 Chinese kernel allows Project Butter to work, that's pretty cool!

Ugh, OK project butter has nothing to do with the kernel
It comes with jellybean
And that 3.0 kernel both with chilly's roms and ever evervolv is one that preludrew hacked up or ported and its an aosp, no one has built any ROMs with the Chinese kernel yet.
Bry is building a flash able zip with the new kernel as we speak and even then it's just going to

Anyone else feel JB was still the "best" version for GNEXUS?

Anyone else feel JB was still the "best" version for GNEXUS?
I've been a flash addict since I got the phone. Always going for the experimental, nightly builds and such.
However, I am getting tired of my gnexus lagging, and slowing down randomly. I've always felt 4.1 JB was very responsive and good memory management for my phone. anyone feel the same way?

4.1 has been the only version of Android I've not had any issues with and I'm still running today.
I think people just get to caught up on having/running the latest/greatest Android version, when really our GN was made to run perfectly on JB 4.1.
4.2 was made for N4
4.4 for N5
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Me too. But ATM I have cm11 (4.4) and it's not bad at all.

4.1 you say?
Mine came with 4.2 so will give 4.1 a try. Battery life was not good with stock 4.2 but better with fancy kernel or any of the newer ROM.
I tried CM11, Avatar, Slim, PA, Vanir and others.

I don't think any particular Android version is "made" for a device in particular.
Yes, Jelly Bean originally debuted on the 2012 Nexus 7 and the Nexus 4 saw the next major update but that doesn't mean that Android still can't run on any other device provided that the kernel and ROM are optimized for it. Those devices were just test/reference devices for development.
I have cyanogenmod Kitkat on my device and it runs as good (or better) than stock Jelly Bean.
It's like Windows 8. It runs good on some PCS, whereas on others it lags a bit.
Software is software and to the device it's all the same.

I'm also trying this theory ATM, will upgrade to a new phone soon but 4.4 has really been really slow after a while on my Gnex, even after converting to f2fs..
In other news, I now need to post in general discussion until I have enough posts to post in development so here goes.

For those of you still on 4.1, would you mind uploading and sharing the roms you are using?

This is more than enough. Thank you!

i'm running omni on my toroplus now 4.4.4 and i would have to say this is much better than the stock roms (i've ran 4.1/4.2/4.3) and they all work, but i really dig the 4.4 only camera from google and i'm a version junkie...
i did try just stable releases from CM all the way back to 4.1.2 but couldn't get random things working and didn't feel like taking the time...
so far, between working 4g/3g handoff's, more stable wifi, access to the latest apps that need 4.4 (camera is the only one that comes to mind) i'll run omni...still hoping that the awesome kernel guys will get 3.4 working and we can move to android L for some of that awesome battery life

Hello! For this phone is better stock 4.3 or say CM 11 (4.4.4)?

True...
But ICS 4.0 was essentially JB 4.1 without Google Now.
Where JB 4.2+ added multiple changes to various app designs:
Camera
Clock
Gallery
Keyboard
Quick tiles
Multi-User Profiles

Um, "Project butter" was introduced with JB 4.1. I know everyone was after that on their ROMs...

The best Android versions for the Galaxy Nexus are definitely 4.1 and 4.3 final releases. The problems with 4.4.x that finally made me ditch it are the unfixed radio issues and subsequent battery drain. I've heard that some roms such as Dirty Unicorns, Omnirom, and Slimkat have this fixed, or at least the radio cutout issue. My favorites though that give me good battery, performance, and features are 4.1.2 LiquidJB and 4.3.1 Vanir, the latter being my daily driver.

Hi GL
The MD5 for 4.2 TransformPack, gapps-jb-20121011 and pa_toro-2.57-20130116 don't match by the way, even after multiple downloads.
