here. there. everywhere.
i wish voice recognition/voice search was ics, as it is in quarx, rather than gb. I find the accuracy on ics port much more reliable than the gb port. Sigh, but otherwise superb build :). Thanks Epsylon.

If I'm already on a ICS nightly and I just wanna flash a newer one, do I need to clear data? or it's enough just to clear cache?
Thanks.

Works fine for me. Calendar is enabled in Sync settings? Tried to wipe data and cache of the calendar application? Or maybe even a full wipe / entering google account again?

Do you think that in further nightlys thet will improve the UI performance? That i think it is already very choppy. Are you agree with me?

I do agree. Some things are really smooth (gallery, file manager) but the Android core UI is fairly slow, definitely a regression from Gingerbread. I think it has something to do with the drivers being used for the GPU? I'm not sure. This would probably be why Chrome doesn't work.

I think full HWA and anti-aliasing on Trebuchet and it will be ready for prime time. In the meanwhile, it is certainly too laggy for daily use.

These versions are bleeding edge however, so that considered, the progress is amazing. :) I'm sure greater UI performance (and full HWA) will be something we get eventually.

yes you are somewhat right , HW acc is not complete yet. for POWER VR SGX 530 ie OMAP 3630 ,there is a need of driver upgrade in kernel(obviously we cannot hope for kernel upgrade), and also some scripts should be included which intend are responsible for not working of CHROME , OPERA , wallpaper scrolling like problems :mad:
HOPE that a phone with OMAP 3630 gets an official upgrade ON ICS , which indirectly will help our developers to get proper drivers for HW acclelration :rolleyes:

YOU can also check galaxy SL forum ( with same chipset as defy ie omap 3630) , they are also working for proper kernel drivers for power vr sgx 530 :p

    TO CLEAR YOUR CONFUSIONS ABOUT GB KERNEL ICS AND FROYO KERNEL ICS

    I have seen lot of confused user out there asking about which kernel to flash and stuff... So here u go read below...
    So our beloved Awsome Developers make two types of nightlies
    1-For DefyPlus(Can Also be used on Defy(RedLens))
    These are the GB/CM9 kernel builds
    These are found under /cm9-nightly-defy+/ folder of the servers which we have
    To install these you need to follow the TuT to install ICS Defy Plus Above...
    Green Lens Camera Wont work on these builds


    2-For Regular Defy(Do not work on Defy plus)
    These are Froyo/CM7 kernel Builds
    These are found under /CM9-Nightly-Defy/ folder of the servers which we have.
    To install these follow the TuT to install CM9 ICS FOR Defy stated above

    3-Well there is no 3rd build(There is The MileStone2 Port by Walter79,But now that we have camera on our builds that one is not usefull...)


    +ICS bugs (all kernel versions) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1381887


    Doesn't Work (not supported yet):
    -Panorama
    -HWA a bit buggy

    If you find any bug please post it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1381887

    ok, you know what? i tired of this. I'm reading in all kinds all replys (here and in other threads/PM): from good job to being dissapointed by the way i manage(update) this thread. I'm sorry for those of you who are dissapointed (but bear in mind that i do this for free, in my spare time, for you) and lots of thanks for those of you who appreciate my efforts in keeping this as "up-to-date" as I can. But I can't do this no more... users are getting upset for being to much threads about this, and since I'm not the developer nor have anything to do with the development of ICS, I will ask a moderator to close and archive this thread.

    It was nice while it lasted. See you around:) Cheers!

    [B][I]31-Jan-2012:[/I]
    [/B] Feedback:--GodSlayer--:
    Comes with Google Apps pre installed
    Added Defy ROM Updater
    Camera one step foward: There is shutter opening sound( or something of that sort ), Camera app doesn't just Force Close anymore. Still cannot connect to camera
    UI is somewhat faster.
    
    What is Defy ROM Updater?
    A ROM Manager like app, it allows to
    Check for updates
    Perform all wipes( Davlik, app, data )
    Backuping and Restoring the ROM
    Entering Recovery Mode.
    
    [B][I]29-Jan-2012:[/I]
    [/B] Feedback:--GodSlayer--: 
    UI is much faster
    3G Works rather well
    Added Interface: Launcher, Interface:Themes, Launcher:System in settings
    Added Personal:Profiles in Settings
    Added System:Performance in Settings
    Camera very very soon - when you usually open camera, there is that sound, in this build, it has that sound but camera app force closes. 
    Added Music app( CyanogenMod 7 )
    Added Dev Tools - ( don't remember it in previous version, perhaps I am mistaken )
    
    [B][I]12-Jan-2012:[/I]

    [B][I]11-Jan-2012:[/I]
    [/B]-Fix sensors
    -mms.apk
    -music.apk
    -pin-code...etc

    thanks for the reports, i fixed the apn window (merge problem, aosp 4.0.4 merge was not fast-forward) and the wifi off from notification bar by a temporary hack...

    for the video, its still very sensible code, and our device familly (omap3) is almost fully ignored by cyanogenmod team ....

    bootmenu and Usb apps have now the official ICS branch, but wifi camera and codecs will be a hell again to be merged...

    This build is test of hwa with some fixes..
    Fully hwa we can use only after new gl libs, but for now we can't use new libs(thanks to moto for that)
    On defy+ hwa completely unstable, than on defy.
