Does wi-fi work for you with v5? I'm using v4 cos wi-fi isn't working for me on v5.

Yep it works great. When I turn wifi on, it turns on wifi faster than normal. Works really great.

Yes it works,just flash V5 modules after the kernel.

I didn't do that. I flash the kernel, then installed the Arconium rom, then I flashed the modules. Any difference?

hi folks.
i am on arconium ics 2.4 with doomkernel v5.
my problem is that i can't take screenshots...
i tried to press power+vol.down like 5235 times but nothing happens :(
is there an apk which is responsible for this option (which i've maybe deleted)?
thanks for your help.

Just flashed 3b rom. I then started to restore my apps with TB, and for some reason, there was no apps after the restore... I tried it again after a reboot, my no effect...

Well I better try 2.4. So far the rom felt very fast and snappy though, I hope 2.4 will also be :)

E: Same problem in 2.4...

Did you try holding it down for longer than 2 secs?
And it has to be at the same time

Weird, 2.4 just shat bricks on me after running stable for 2 days, software rendering. I was playing music with google play in car and it all of a sudden started throwing System UI has stopped responding, shut it off and restarted and now I don't have status bar anymore and the tray button looks offset.

Anyone else ever have this happen? I'm gonna do a full wipe and put 3.b on for the hell of it now.

In the screen shot below it says I'm using .431 so just wondering why it says .562 in the title?

    Known Issues for 5.0

    • Touch controls might not work in AROMA Installer.
    • As with stock ICS, phone/contacts may take a while to start for the first time after boot.
    • If you didn't do a full wipe when coming from 4.1.B.0.431, you might have problems deleting bloatware.

    Troubleshooting

    • Flash the corresponding modules from the kernel you use (unless "modules included" is written) to make sure WiFi works properly.
