Hi, are apps like hidebar and honeybar still going to be necessary for ICS or does ICS have a built in ability to hide the bottom bar when full screen events take place?
[ROM] Update (7/23/12) Tweaked Stock BETA 5.0 (3G Only) | Stock ICS | AROMA
- Thread starter sk806
- Start date
Last known, those don't even work on ICS. And no, there's no way to remove the bar, only darken it like it currently does on Honeycomb.
It's not happening with the stock XXLA4 firmware.
As a side note, thanks a lot man for the latest version. I can confirm that the bug with the playback being interrupted after every song, that was present in v 2, is not there anymore...
Thanks for that. I wonder what I did!
Anyway, released a One X ROM today, so ate up my dev time. I will post the lock screen fix asap in the AM my time.
Glad this version is working out so well....can't wait for ICS. Been running the CM9 port a bit, and the screen transitions are a lot snappier. Still, I have come to like Touchwiz...sad but true.
Anyway, I'll see what I can contribute over there, and wait for the update to be released.

Funny you ask -- I've been using the 'first' released CWM and it's acting strange -- do 'wipe' and it resets the tab every time now. Also, I'm currently stuck in bootloop at 'galaxy tab' screen. No clue if it's related. I'm going to try the 'new' CWM just released once I get home. Kinda pissed at this bootloop issue, second time it's happened (once before w/ v2). Tried restore but it's also failing.
Not so happy

Read my reply couples pages back.
hope that helps.
After installing the new firmware when I install applications some of the icons suddenly disappeared from the main screen. Put a few widgets, then they are removed, reboot the error message popped up TW and icons reappear. I do not understand what it was ...

It's a TW bug. I had that with stock rom.
Thanks Samsung
If u must use the stock launcher. The only work around is to use a desktop shortcut for the missing application

Or clear the data....
By the way that mostly occurs when you use folders

Lockscreen Clock Issue
Hi all,
Could someone do me a favor? Please turn off your lockscreen in settings, then reactivate it and see if the font and dimensions go back to normal? Thanks!

No sorry, still missing. However I went to unlock my device this morning and the text WAS there but next time it was missing? Did you see my post about setting lock screen via gallery sorting the problem out until reboot?
Thank you for the fantastic ROM btw, so fast, so smooth.
I think you saved my ass and my sanity -- I'll give it a shot, thanks!!!!!
OK, the method worked, but this morning: unplugged, IMMEDIATE reset, then bootloop as before. Something is terribly wrong... I'm going to try one more time, then back to v2 or ....stock

Hi, sorry, but could you please explain your issue to me in detail, either here or or a pm. I seem to have lost track of what's going on.

I did. For some reason, turning it off and on worked for me. Anyway, ill just nudge it over a few pixels.

Okay:
1) restore stock ROM using ODIN
2) boot stock recovery, wipe
3) boot download mode, install CWM
4) boot CWM, flash new ROM
5) boot normally, skip setup
6) reinstall apps, etc.
7) leave on charger overnight
8) unplug charger > resets tab, tab tries to start, but gets stuck on sammy boot animation with stuck SOUND even.
9) reset tab (3 finger salute) > stuck on galaxy logo
10) boot CWM to start recovery, recovery gets mostly done, restoring data > tab resets > stuck at boot logo
I've got it back now, only thing different is avoiding ALL the addons (10.1 launcher, etc). I'll give you feedback after a day's use; if it fails again it will be shortly...
Great ROM, just my tab is acting flaky.
BLOODY HELL -- IT JUST DID IT AGAIN WHILE TYPING! I was backing up in CWM and now it's stuck! DEFINITELY recovery or boot is getting fried somewhere; tried recovery to wipe, but it goes back to stuck on boot. I'm really stumped now. I'm going back to v2 and see if it happens again...

I just noticed you're located in Wuhan. You don't have a chinese tab do you?
Known massive issues with those and CWM/ROMs....

Yep, sure do but v2 was flawless for a long, long time (like a month or more of daily abuse
Don't know why but v3 isn't liking my China (mainland) tab
Either way, v2 still beats the hell out of stock!

173(7/23/12) Tweaked Stock for GT-P6800 Version 5.0
This is the BETA release of my tweaked stock ROM, based off of the new XXLQ1 Firmware. It uses AROMA to install the ROM and gives the user quite a bit of choice as to what apps to install. There are also some choices for mods and fonts, but these are limited ATM. I HAVE NOT tested all of the AROMA options in terms of apps and fonts, but there is nothing that will break anything....
This is a BETA release, so please don't flash unless you are willing to accept the risk of some bugs....no screenshots test, as it is stock...
Features
- Based on Official Firmware XXLQ1 (ATO);
- Deodexed,
- Zipaligned,
- AROMA 2.0 Installer;
- Stock kernel,
- Init.d support;
-Removed CPU rendering, full GPU rendering;
- init.d scripts include: RAM management and VM tweaks, zipalign, flash memory performance and more,
- build.prop tweaks for improved screen responsiveness, keeping home app in memory, etc.,
- Most widgets and icons removed from homescreen to make it cleaner and easier to customize (see screenshot),
- Optimized pngs and smali/xml launcher/framework tweaks for a smoother TW experience,
- See change log, in post #2...
Coming Very Soon
- Advanced/extended power menu (debugging now...)
Known Issues
-Homescreen is a bit messy when you first boot, depending on what you install via AROMA.... In the final, I will have all widgets, removed and app shortcuts aligned, so you have a clean slate.
- You tell me....
INSTALLATION
1. Make a Nandroid backup of your current ROM,
2. Download the flashable .zip file you want below,
3. Reboot into clockwork mod recovery,
4. You must flash the XXLQ1 ICS firmware via ODIN/Heimdall before flashing this ROM! Also, a data wipe is strongly recommended before flashing Thanks.
5. Flash the ROM zip in recovery, following the prompts in the AROMA installer (NOTE: on the custom install menu you need to use the volume keys to scroll up and down, working on this...),
6. Let it boot up and then go through the setup wizard,
7. Let the widgets load up and things settle, sync., etc.,
8. Enjoy, and please post bugs in the thread, if any ( "XDA App keeps force closing" is NOT a bug....).
9. If you like the ROM, please hit the thanks button....!
DOWNLOAD

(Mirror 1, more to come, if needed): http://d-h.st/pNd
Samsung Apps

PLEASE NOTE:
- This ROM will flash the modem.bin from the ATO firmware. This should not be an issue for users, but I just want you to know...I have it in there for beta testing purposes, and will remove in future releases...
- If you use tegrak or some other over-clocking app, or if you restore data with Titanium Backup, please do not post bugs you may have when using those programs. The same goes for restoring system data via Titanium Backup. I cannot debug issues arising from their use.
Thanks/Credits
- lowtraxx for helping me with the broken fonts issue...
- More to come...
WARNING/DISCLAIMER
As with all custom ROMs, you flash the ROM and any other items linked to in this post or the remainder of this thread at your own risk. I cannot and will not be held responsible for anything that may happen to your phone, others or you as a result of flashing this ROM.31Change Log
Version 3.0--->Version 5.0
[*Initial Release of ICS Version
Version 2.0--->Version 3.0
- Went back to XXLA4 base, completely rebuilt, with all apks optimized;
- Removed CPU rendering, full GPU rendering;
- Added some init.d tweaks to increase ext4 I/O speed,
- revamped RAM, priorities, handler and vm tweaks;
- incrased sdcard readahead to 2048,
- added modded stock launcher from 10.1 that has also been optimized (still not as smooth as TW launcher, IMHO), with smali code altered to work with sqlite version in the firmware;
- added back memo and a couple of other apps (Kies, etc.) to lite base;
- Other dorky stuff I am sure I forgot...
Final v 1-->version 2.0
- Completely rebuilt from newest official firmware DXBL3;
- Only one version available (should work over all firmware, but see "Please Note" in OP). This is a "Lite Version";
- Made Samsung App flashable zip available for those who want full ROM;
- Working HideBar App;
- Increased free memory in supercharger script;
- Removed TCP tweaks from build.prop;
- Redid allanimations in framework and launcher to increase speed/smoothness and reduce lag;
- Probably a lot more I forgot...
RC3-->Final
- De-symlinked system/app and data/app_s;
- Added noatime flash memory tweaks;
- added drop caches script to (hopefully) reduce lag in homescreen;
- Messed with the animations a bit to speed them up;
- More optimizations of Samsung TW apks to at least make them work better (wish I could get rid of them...);
- Minor speed and battery tweaks;
- More I am sure I forgot...
RC2-->RC3
- Changed kernel flash method to improve (hopefully solve) problems with flashing onto some stock firmware;
- Fixed app drawer background;
- removed some init.d scripts I felt were extraneous;
- Speed tweaks (let me know)...
RC1-->RC2
- Fixed issue in kernel flash that (I hope) was preventing some users phone to force close/bootloop on startup;
- Fixed issues with some apps and games crashing (again,..);
- Symlinked /system/app/ to /data/app/ to offload some data on the system partition;
- Moved some apps to /data/app so they can be uninstalled;
- Adjusted the RAM script settings to be less aggressive, but hopefully just as effective;
- tweaked VM settings;
- removed some init.d scripts I felt were not adding all that much (make things simpler);
- further tinkering with framework to smooth out TW interface. I find that the only noticeable lag now is after closing out a program, there is a fraction of a secon of lag when switching home screens. I hope to remove this by the final release...
