ARCHIVED: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus ICS

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Thanks, that makes sense. Still, it seems unlikely to me that calendar sync was intentionally removed, especially since the calendar app itself is left in place. (Browser sync and photo sync I could see as being pruned.)

I only wanted to point it out so that LeslieAnn (who I believe created the optimized gapps) and/or TDM are aware of what seems (to me) to be a bug.

If it is intentional, that's fine.

Yes I pulled out the same files that LeslieAnn did. If that is causing issues, I can put them back in again. But I'll need to hunt for more space savings to compensate.

Well the only issue (with the integrated gapps) that I'm aware of is the calendar sync not being available. It seems to work otherwise, so perhaps it's not worth worrying about. People who want to can flash a regular gapps. On the other hand, if whatever it is that enables calendar sync isn't TOO big...

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Hmm.. the bootanimation isn't looking so hot. I tried it on my phone and it doesn't even get to finish. (It's a very long bootanimation, has 2 parts). I'm having trouble resizing it, because when I do it just shows up as a black screen. I'll keep trying, yet I'm not really seeing any "amazingness" to it.

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

I think the boot animation was super smooth in the first couple alpha's, then they started to be choppy... don't know what happened but hope this helped

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Oh no, you misunderstood me my fault.
I'm trying to get the brand new CM9 bootanimation to work on our phones, but it's too long.

What you're experiencing is that tdm used my bootanimation first, (the smooth one) but it was too big so he used a "slimmed down" one for a replacement. The replacement one is a little more choppy and not as smooth, but hey, it gets us more room

@tdm: I don't know if we'll be able to put this new bootanimation on the ROM as of right now. It's 6.6 mb. I'm sure after a little resizing it will be a little more slimmed, yet there's no telling..

I have a quick question I'm running this rom at the moment and was wondering where I could find the ginger kernel at. I was gonna flash it through flash image GUI. If there's a link will someone post it thanks

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Cool worked out pretty good. I downloaded the free application 3G data only any my 3g hasn't dropped. What it does is block out 1-2 g data running in the background. I'm in a horrible service area no problems yet

 

[bmxrider234]

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

I tried 3g auto connect too but it wasn't so great cause the other non 3g data. I'll keep trying apps to find which works best

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

i flashed alpha 5, and everytime i try calling someone, a message pops up saying

" unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped "

but i can still hear the person on the phone.

What should i do? or is this a bug?

That happened to me when I changed my LCD density. Do you have yours set at something other than stock?

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Never mind the market don't have much to choose from. Lol but I recommend using the app 3G Data only. Works like a charm. I'm reconsidering buying a new phone I really wanna see how this from comes together In the future

Looks like I left Calendar Sync off that list, it's possible it wasn't in the original ICS gapps. 5 days later they released an update to fix issues, that may have been part of it. Without calendar sync, it won't update.

For those using calendar, put the attached file in system/apps, that will fix it.




Edit: I just looked, somehow I missed that file is all.

It says in the description that 3G Data Only is not compatible with ICS.

New build: quattrimus-vm670-cm9-alpha6.zip.
md5: f3cacf7806817a7b7941371ca0741b51

Changes:

* Reverted to gingerkernel.
* Possible mic fix, please test.
* Hacked MMS to work, please test.

Note that MMS required a couple of hacks to get it to work.

My code in the SMS dispatcher isn't pretty but should work.

But more importantly, the MMS app wants to use NetworkStats to verify it has connectivity. And NetworkStats in turn wants to use a netfilter module called xt_qtaguid that gingerbread kernels don't have. In fact it doesn't seem that the iScream kernel even has it. My hack is just to turn the failure into a log message in the MMS app. So I think this is the first time MMS has worked on the thunderc (Optimus S/V) running ICS. The only issue seems to be that the MMS app will always attempt to connect via 3G even if 3G isn't available and the failure message will take longer to display than it should.

Note this just underscores the importance of having our own kernel. Drew did a wonderful job with gingerkernel and it's gotten us pretty far. But I think it's just about reached the end of where it can take us.

For the devs (jerry, bob, kraven, drew, ...), this is my change to the Mms package:

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Live wallpapers are not working. Fast battery drain. It says "roaming indicator off" at bottom of status bar; I'm pretty sure its supposed to read "virgin mobile". Minor color issues in some apps ex: Facebook, dialer, color of wallpaper on desktop when notification bar is pulled down. Browser tab animations when switching between them is laggy. These a minor issues to me. Overall good start though.

Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Also note: now that MMS is working and the mic fix might be functional, I consider all the phone type stuff to be at least minimally usable. So I'm going to be taking a week or so away from releasing new drops. I've got a backlog of "real" work to do, I want to get my changes pushed into the IHO repository, and work on a kernel.

I hope everyone enjoys the work so far.
