ICS and Jellybean Rom Discussion Thread

I got it flashed, and I've gotta say I'm pretty impressed...some things I haven't got working are the themes(say they apply but don't) downloading from market is little sketchy but works(screen tear clears up after 10 seconds) no native screenshot and can't get drocap2 to work, sound settings force close but can apply ringtone through music app, and I've gotta say feels good to see the battery bar on ICS. Its snappy and responsive, pretty sweet for an Alpha. They are close...very close. The theme it comes with is white where everything is normally black, and orange where it is normally blue but I guess this will change once they get themes to work. Some parts are still in Chinese and I don't have a clue what it says. Gonna keep a close eye on this....They tout video as working, can anybody confirm youtube or netflix working?

Just wanna get this off my chest, and I'll do it here in my thread instead of lighting up MazWoz's thread. Reading through that thread makes me wanna screeeeaaam. He got flamed at the beginning and rightfully so, let's see you can "code" a Rom but don't know how to write a post and start a thread? Not that there aren't hundreds of examples of OP's on XDA. I asked a simple question over there...how is this Rom different than JTG's? Pretty simple right, meaning what did you do to improve this? Well my question was ignored, and knobslobbing over their continues...way to stick it out bro, weather the storm man....yuck. Do you want quality or quantity of these ICS Roms? I'd rather have Quality...there is nothing more disappointing than taking the time to download a rom, wipe, flash, set up, download apps, only to find out you've seen this before, only there's a couple diff. apps baked in and a new launcher. You say you did tweaks? What use other peoples fixes? Waiting on a kernel sir, you can tweak it all you want, but ICS on the EVO is not moving forward til then. And to the noobs flashing this, it might behoove you to go at least look at another ics thread before posting your problems...gallery doesn't always work? Really? Calendar sync doesn't work? Really? Video doesn't play? No sh*t! Staying away from this Rom on principle, of how things went down on here...

Or a ROM or setup thing. Wondering what rom it's working on.

Thanks for posting, I was just about to ask.
I hope they get things working on the Evo 4g, I have to keep this thing until October and would hate to be stuck on gingerbread. I'm a CM fan, you see.

Me too, but I would recommend getting on an ICS rom asap, not sure what's holding you back....CM9 is not going to look too terribly different than stock ICS.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
What would you recommend? I like CM because it was as close to stock as you could get on an Evo. I hate sense and other overlays. I guess I'm not current on what roms are out there now.

Whichever you pick you'll likely need to get it outside of here. There are two threads still open, one of them is getting heavily hit by a few members that don't think anything of flaming and speaking ill of others so it might get locked (again) soon, which is what theyre trying to accomplish.
In any case someone else already posted what sites have what:
Deck: RootzWiki
JaredTheGreat: blazing-ROMs.com
MazWoz is still in the EVO 4G Dev section
They're all AOSP with some tweaks here and there but are all mostly the same.

Everybody running ICS right now is beta tester, everybody runs into problems, everybody (for the most part) tries to help each other out...I started this thread for that purpose and it has been nice and peaceful for 4 months...people know they are free to dicuss anything ICS related so as not to clog up the dev. threads.....JTG never gave credit for anything and claimed it as his, Mazda gives credit where credit is due, two totally different things...you should go moderate over at Kingsrom....heard its pretty happening over there....NOT!

I'm only going to reply once to this, just because it needs to die.
There was never an issue of using a or b as a base rom without permission. Frankly, i dont agree completely with the xda rule that permission is required. You can use anything we create with an implied permission, explicit permissions are not necessary.
I know I speak for many, but can only speak for myself at the moment, but the roms you see on xda (aosp roms) are a collaboration and 'kangoration' of many different people's work. But we all start from somewhere... google. They also start from somewhere in their work.
Synopsis... When it comes to roms, I believe anyone should be able to do and share as they please. Just keep to a very simple etiquette and we have an ongoing community.6Hey guys I started my ICS MODS thread that most of you guys wanted to see back on XDA..... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1550150 Is not as packed as it was before BUT I'll get it there, give me some time5
ICS once its fully functional, gives your phone more tablet-like capabilities, the UI is way better...
I understand its not a giant leap from GB but its always better to move forward with technology and stay stuck in the past devving Froyo and Eclair roms with Sense 1.0 they do it because its comfortable and familiar and have had two years to master it. ICS brings to the table something new and exciting for our old ass Evo's. You are gonna see a huge dropoff in the Evo thread due to contracts being up and people being able to upgrade their phones here in a couple months and in the fall. If you go look in the threads for the newer phones....nobody else is doing GB rooms anymore and I know its all about function and what the phone is capable of...I'd just like to see as many people working on it as possible. We are where we are in ICS land thanks to the work of two guys Drew and Deck. If Deck just stayed with GB we wouldn't even have ICS possible on our Evos. So adding 10 more devs to the ICS frontier before they move on to other phones, and they will, could only help. Imagine the themeing possiblites, the innovative UI they could come up with, maybe even get that damn camera working to its full capability. That's all...we moved so fast with GB because EVERYBODY and their brother was working on it, everybody was excited about the new things it brought...here we are 6 MONTHS after the first ICS rom hit our phones and we still don't have a fully functional complete rom. Two guys can't do it all, their time is limited and they do it in their spare time. Hell alot of the newer phones don't even have Android 4.0 running yet...I've had it on my Evo for 6 months....that's amazing...I'm just saying it could be even more amazing if everybody got on board and worked toward a fully functional complete ICS rom. Sense 1.0 is cool as a throwback, everybody loved 3.0 ports when they dropped and 3.5 when it dropped. I don't see anybody working on porting 4.0, I'm sure its way cooler than all the rest. OK enough dreaming for one night, and thank you to all the devs for keeping our phone relevant...peace
