Downloaded and installed this ROM twice with the same results: constant freeze/reboot.

On a whim I decided to disable Surface Dithering and it's been completely stable for the past half hour or so since doing that. Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone that may be having the same issue.

EDIT: Also enabled Force GPU Rendering. Seems like it must have been one of those 2 things that was causing my issue.

Yeah those GL libraries are pretty finicky ... :/

No idea about data2ext, never used it.

When I first installed IHO last Sep., I symlinked /data/app -> /sd-ext/app. And it's been that way ever since. No muss, no fuss, no maintenance, nothing. It works great for me but I wouldn't recommend it for everyone, because it ties your apps to your sdcard.

So here's what I plan to do... in alpha8, I plan to bind mount /sd-ext/app over /data/app just like alpha7 does with dalvik-cache. This should be zero maintenance and will eliminate the need for any of the *2sd hackery.

I can toss out a script to plate in /system/etc/init.d for testing if anyone wants to give it a shot.

Oh, and if you don't have an sd-ext partition, you really should. Especially when running ICS. Because that poor little internal MTD in the OV is just not made for holding everything that ICS needs. The ROM diet of deleting extra stuff doesn't help much in this regard because we're talking about the /data and /cache partitions, which aren't affected by the size of the ROM itself.

Hey tdm is there any possible way to get the on-screen keys on your rom??

Why, you have too many pixels? ;) j/k. Seriously, why? Are your buttons broken or something?

I don't know how to enable them off the top of my head but I suspect it's a compile-time flag. If not, you should be able to do it yourself. If so, I'm not going to do it but I'll be happy to point you to the threads on how to build your own ROM. ;)

If you're running alpha7, you should find that it's got the dalvik-cache bind mounted onto it. ;)
 
Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

dspmanager was one of the first casualties of the rom diet. I'll put it on my list of extras to put into an "extras" package.

Ah good, thanks! DSP manager is like the one thing I miss from cm7. :'(

Anyone using Voice Actions successfully?

No go for me. Just opens up for a few seconds, says nothing like "Speak Now" (dunno if it does in ICS or not) and then closes out. No "failed recognition" sound.

Same with me. Tried using it in Navigation and it just closes. Not a big issue, but it might be nice to add it to the list of bugs.

ya i am. could u point me to the apps to ext symlink thing you talkin about?
saw the script when i was poking around in the init.d folder. but idk if there is a compatible version of data2ext yet.
 
Re: [ROM][ALPHA] quattrimus CM9 (ICS)

Tried that with cna but then I get stuck at the boot animation :/

if your trying to use the flashable zip on his cna blog its only for that its a patched framework for his rom. he had posted a how to, you have decompile the framework and edit some things

To get 3G working I turn on wifi then off then I turn on airplane mode then off then I go under mobile networks and turn off data network then turn it back on. Then 3G works perfectly until you restart your phone and have to repeat the procedure.
