Not sure if this is an ICS quirk or a CM9 one, but is there any way to get the phone screen to stay on (dimmed or not) while I'm plugged into a dock?

I think there's a "keep awake" check box somewhere in settings. If you want a faster option though, get Widgetsoid2.x and create a statusbar widget with the "always on" toggle included. That way, you won't have to go trolling through settings all the time. :)

Is anyone else having issues getting the voice input key to appear on the stock ICS keyboard? It was working fine for me on Alpha 6, but for Alpha 7 and Beta 1 it's gone.

I even checked the keyboard settings and everything (voice input key: on main keyboard). :/

yeah the voice search apk got left out in the gapps. just restore it from tibu or find the apk in an ics compatible gapps package

Okay now that I have the camera working again I can't for the life of me remember how I got the thing to stop making the shutter noise. I am sure I didn't rename or remove the ogg and I'm pretty sure it was some cli. Anyone know how to make the camera silent in b1?

hey just a quick question. Haven't been on in a while, but I know hashcode was having issues getting both SD cards working WITH media scan on both.. can anyone confirm or deny if this "issue" still exists? I know both are functioning, just wondering about the media mostly

I loaded Hashcode's beta1 on my D3 the other day, and I've been thrilled with it.

The beta is awesome! I'm loving it too

I somehow ended up with duplicated contacts though...I'm sitting here going through my contacts one by one deleting the duplicate. Does anyone know if there is a way to long press or select to delete a contact from the list, rather than having to go into the individual contact and then deleting it from the menu. It feels kind of painful to do it this way :confused:

Delete the backup assistant version... I had to switch all my contacts to my google account, haven't had a problem since.

    I made no mods. It was like this right off the bat, while I was setting up my google acct. I had trouble selecting the text input box until I actually held my finger there. Thought it was frozen or something at first. I can't stand it, I had to switch back to liberty. Frankly until the camera works I can't use ics as a daily driver anyways. I use it a fair bit

    Could try these build.prop tweaks. I have them all at except I haven't adjusted the max_events because I find the screen pretty responsive(tested to see if they caused crashing for you lol). Perhaps just the 1of keeping the launcher in memory will help with what you're noticing. I have to say it seems even quicker here now but it could be placebo. I've also removed libGLES_android.so etc been messing around with flashplayer trying to find a fix but no luck yet, poor framerate in videos, like maybe 1 fps and it drops the rest to give ~27fps slideshow.


    Helps Scrolling Response
    windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150

    Increases overall touch response
    debug.performance.tuning=1
    video.accelerate.hw=1

    Forces your home screen launcher to remain in memory
    ro.home_app_adj=1

    Render UI with GPU
    debug.sf.hw=1

    The globalnwswitch thing is in the /system/app folder. Delete the apk from there

    In build.prop

    it goes

    "# Default Network type.
    # 7 => Global Phone (4 => CDMA).
    ro.telephony.default_network = 2."

    does this mean that the default network is already set to 2? Do i have to change the number '7' to '2' also?? Thanks for any help guys. :)

    I tried to change the setting in build.prop but i don't think it saved anything. Im using AstroViewer to do it. I also deleted the GlobalNswitch.apk from the APP folder.

    But when i reboot the phone it says 'process com.android.phone has stopped. Am I doing something wrong?? LOL


    edit: and one more thing. phone won't let me uninstall/delete GlobalNSwitch.apk. it said delete was unsuccessful and uninstall was unsuccessful..

    The # means that that line is commented out ie doesn't actually do anything. Its just there for your information. So yes default network is set to 2 already.

    /system is a read only file system. I'm not familiar with astro manager, some file mangers allow you to remount read/write. Look around otherwaise use a terminal emulator to run this command
    busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
    Make sure you are root first by using the command su if you are it should say som ething like root@solana (or something similar, I can't remember exactly)

    How does this do for a daily driver? I just got my Droid 3 replaced so I've got a fresh system to fall back on just in case.

    If you don't use the camera much/at all, it's a great daily. I've been on CM9 exclusively, for about three months now, and haven't had any problems doing what I need to do. The camera is a sticking point for some, but, I don't mind at all. :)
