v36 does have some force closes on the launcher (I've gotten 3 in the 15 minutes I've been running it), also the launcher seems to not feel as fast on transitions as dooderbutt v1

A few have said ADW Launcher works nice in place of the stock launcher... No FC's.

Actually the FC's seem to disappear after a little while... Everyone saying run it for a bit, let the dalvik cache build up and then do a few reboots and things seem to smooth out... I only got 1 launcher FC in 2 hrs...

Yeah, I saw that posted over at xda, I'm going to ride it out and see if it smooths out. I really like the stock ICS launcher.

Yes this version is really smooth....

Its stock kernel, no voodoo or anything but it really runs nice....

Has reboot/recovery mods in shut down menu as one added bonus ;)

Superuser is still built in minus the actual Superuser app.... I have an thread with the updated Superuser but I posted it in NS4G general by mistake...

Download and flash in CWM and you will have a working SU app.

Will I need to flash this before or after I flash this ROM? Or is it included in this update?

Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Either way doesn't matter.. Its updated and is backwards compatible with all previous OS/builds...

Its not included in the ROM... Superuser is built into the binary of the ROM but the app isn't present.

Flashing this will give you back your SU app and permissions on root apps.

Re: [ROM][WIP][ALPHA][NS4G] oICSv36 | AOSP 4.0.3 (ICS)

Came late: is this a GN or NS port?

Built right from the AOSP source tree from Google with official source binaries for the NS4G from Google. Going to have to wait a bit longer for an actual official/OTA update from Google for NS4G...

Thats okay! This build rocks.... GPS WORKS! I've tested it for ya...

No issues here with launcher fc's. Flashed over 29 with a cache and dalvik wipe. Everything seems to be running smooth. Even my netflix is working again; and, video effects.

One question though: what's with the new ugly Talk icon on 4.0.3? Gross. I liked the old one. Yea, it looked like the Voice icon; but, probably should have changed that one instead. :)

It's the same Kernel as 26, right? Because I think I should have the ability to use Deep Idle and BLN then, and NSTools isn't letting me do either.

Edit: Oh, it moved away from franco. Is franco still gonna be compatible with this?

Only one kernel available besides the packaged one....

GlaDOS v2.0.1

Everything else needs to be updated, Matr1x, franco's, trinity...

I've got GlaDOS on here now, so at least BLN is running. Hopefully GlaDOS will get Deep Idle back soon.

I'm sure it will.. Were barely 24 hrs into these builds so were making good progress so far...
