Re: Buglessbeast 4.0.3?

The only issue I had was with the calendar app syncing for multiple Google calendars, but I fixed that by downloading the updated gapps from the xda developer site.

Not sure I did the best job searching XDA, but where are those Gapps?

When the next nightly hits I'm going to try Petes. There were a couple of items he was going to fix for the next build.

Maybe it's moot now that there is a new nightly up...but did anyone have trouble with their GMail or K9 syncing?

My K9 mail said "syncing disabled." Not sure where that would be set (it wasn't in K9).

Maybe just time to try the new nightly.

I just installed the 12-20-2011 version of Pete's ICS ROM and it works really well. This time I didn't need to install gapps separately to get the Google Calendar to sync with multiple calendars. I've tested 4G, GPS, and Hotspot WiFi capabilities and they all work great.

I did have to uninstall my old installation of Netflix (from a Gingerbread backup) and download/install the latest version from the Android Market (which was updated for Android 4.0).

The only thing that is missing, is the BLN mod for this ROM. An excellent ROM by Pete Alfonso. I hope he can tweak it to help extend the battery life.

Anyone have mms download working? Seems to always be broken for me with Pete's roms.Usually I just use apn manager to fix but it doesn't work on ics. As always his roms are the smoothest available so I don't want to switch because of one issue.

Flashed this last night, and its by far the smoothest of the 4.0.3's I've tried, on mine at least.

Battery life has been very good, and the UI is fast. All apps are behaving nicely and no fc's yet.

Thank you Pete, your work always rocks!

All depends on if he suggests a full wipe or not...

Most times with night-lies you can get away with doing a cache partition wipe and dalvik cache wipe which won't cause you to loose data. Try that first, if you run into problems (FC's or whatever) then you will have to go back and wipe data, cache, partition.

About to flash over an earlier nightly so we'll see how it goes :p

Does this ICS build include the 4g Widget like oICS? :cool: Also does glados or any of the ICS kernels work on this?

Yep, 4g widget is in it. I'm still using the kernel that came with it, so I don't know if any of the others work.

I've been going back and forth between this and v41, and this one is a little faster, but both have the same battery life.

What can be backed up and then reinstalled after flashing one of the ICS ROMs? I am assuming that the gapps need to be left out, since ICS would have newer ones, right?

Trial and error... but yes don't restore gapps. Try one at a time. You will find some don't work in ics yet.
