Overscroll doesn't work at all. This morning at 6 o'clock downloaded the build and the kernel.

I don't know what time is in your country, but looking at the first post it's possible you have downloaded the wrong(old) kernel :)
As i said, download (just the kernel, the image should't be changed) and try again! :)

maybe it's a stupid idea but will fix the RGB problem until someone will fix in another way...the kernel for this port is based on cyanogenmod...the cyano kernel supports the voodoo color control by voodoo control app...we can adjust the rgb settings there i think...someone can confirm?

I tried but it not work
 
I tried the honeycomb libs to, i got them all to load but then it crashes (libEGL : eglSetSwapRectangleANDROID:1460 error 3008 (EGL_BAD_DISPLAY) )

You need the hwcomposer, liboverlay, and you may need generic egl libs in system/lib/
I used the EGL libs for the system from the SDK, they seem most generic and working.
The bad display is usually that it cannot properly detect your display size. It is fixable, and a lot better than just giving up completely. I will look into it when I get home and find out how I got past the same error.

Thanks! I will keep try to get it working! :)

EDIT: I can't find hwcomposer for Galaxy s or sgx 540 at all, and this is needed for hardware acceleration, right?

Is the GPU acceleration available for the Samsung galaxy s's GPU? When you think about it, the GPU acceleration on Honeycomb only works for Tegra 2

and I wonder if the GPU acceleration in ICS is only for Galaxy Nexus's TI GPU?

the GPU in galaxy nexus is the same in our SGS but with more clock speed...so if the HW accelleration works on galaxy nexus it will work on us phone too ;)

So Samsung galaxy s will be just as smooth as Galaxy nexus in smoothnes?

Do you think Google will make Ice Cream Sandwich even smoother? As far as I can tell, ICS doesn't have FULL GPU acceleration. It's the same with Honeycomb. How come WP7 has 100% fluid in scrolling everywhere in the OS and Google cant even put it in one place?

I have proof:

- The multitasking menu is NO WAY gpu-accelerated
- The browser is much much smoother than Gingerbread, but not fully silky smooth as iOS/WP7
-The Gallery where you swiped images left to right, it's not SILKY SMOOTH like iOS/WP7
-Swiping homescreens when having Live wallpapers
-Android market , I have never seen something this bad EVER


ICS is a great improvement in smoothness, but there are still very very small lagg here and there. I wonder if Google will put on a fulol GPU-Acceleration in the final build of ICS?

only google will know this xD
but the final build will be better than now cause the one that you have seen in videos isn't the final version yet ^^
but if you think that iOS/WP7 are smoother why you don't buy an iphone or a WP7 phone? :p
however this is not the right place for talk about that please let this thread as cleaner as possible,post questions in Q&A threads please

I love Android and I love my galaxy S, I would never support Microsoft/Apple, but I'm just confused what the problem is with Google: It's the same with their Chrome browser, there's GPU-acceleration but not fully. Do you understand the pattern here? :)

And I'm really bothered, because Galaxy Nexus is a nexus device and it's supposed to be very optimized with the hardware.

Yes, that was the problem.
Old kernel: no overscroll, but there was mobile connection.
New kernel: overscroll ok., but no mobile connection.

    Tutorial How to flash Alpha 7! NOOBPROOF

    OK, for all you people who are too lazy to read the damn thread or simply don't understand it(no offense) I will write this very noob-proof guide to install alpha 6. This guide is for the I9000 SGS; I’d love to write it for the I9000B, but as I don’t have this device I can’t ensure you everything will work.
    Warning, alpha builds are not fully working!! They may contain bugs & have random reboots, by using this guide you accept this. Also I’m not responsible for hard-bricking your phone, which acually shouldn’t happen if you just follow this guide very exactly.

    So we start off, ofcourse we need some files & requirements:
    - A phone with a custom kernel installed!! This is very important as we need to enter CWM(ClockWorkMod(recovery))!
    - The rom itself ( http://ice-cream-sandwich-sgs.googlecode.com/files/ICS_4.0.1_r1-alpha7.zip )
    - The kernel (http://ice-cream-sandwich-sgs.googlecode.com/files/CM7FuguMod_20111124_update-i9000.zip )
    - SuperUser fix (http://ice-cream-sandwich-sgs.googlecode.com/files/Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip )
    - 3G fix ( http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=793818&d=1322157965 )
    - The ability to read english & set your brain to read & do mode.

    OK, now you’ve downloaded all those files and set your brain to read & do let’s start off.
    First of all we need to disable your simlock, as ICS will not enable your network with a simlock. If you don’t feel like disabling your simlock, there is no point for you flashing ICS.
    To do this we’ll do the following:
    1. Go to settings
    2. Go to the security tab
    3. Click on sim card lock, and disable it.

    After you’ve done this you have to make sure your on a JVT rom. Also disable the lagfix.(I’m not going to explain this. Why? Well if you have flashed any custom rom you know how to do this.)

    Now hook up your phone to your PC in USB mode, and in the root of your internal storage make a folder called “Flashable zips”. Now copy ALL those zip files you’ve just downloaded to this folder, ALL of them.

    After your done we will reboot in recovery, for the beginners a small tutorial.
    1. Turn off your phone by holding down the power button and clicking “power off phone”.
    2. Wait for your phone to TOTALLY turn off, when it is it’ll vibrate for a moment.
    3. Now hold the “Volume UP” + “Home” + “Power” buttons until you see the Galaxy S I9000 logo appear, when the logo appears release the buttons and wait a bit. Now you will be in recovery!

    Now we are going to backup your phone, incase you want to return to your old setup. (I will not provide a guide how to return, but as long as you have the backup almost any dev can help you with putting it all back together) Now here follow these exact instructions to backup your current setup.
    1. Use the volume buttons to navigate to “backup and restore”
    2. Press either the power button or home button to select the option. (the text may disappear depending on your kernel, just re-press the button you pressed to make it disappear and the text will be there again)
    3. Now press “Backup” and it will start backing up your phone, this may take a while.. get a coffee.
    Check if the backup was succesfull, the recovery will report this in white/orange tekst.

    You’ve succesfully made a nandroid!

    Now we need to wipe our phone.
    1. In the recovery menu select “wipe data/factory reset”
    2. Now select “wipe cache partition”
    3. Go ahead and go to the “advanced” option
    4. In there select “wipe Dalvik Cache”
    5. Go back to the menu you were before.

    OK, now it’s time to start the actual flashing, again follow these instructions to the letter!
    1. In the recovery menu navigate to “install zip from sdcard” and press your selection key
    2. Now choose the option “choose zip from sdcard”
    3. Navigate to the folder we just made “Flashable zips”
    4. In there select “ICS_4.0.1_r1-alpha7.zip”
    5. Now navigate to the option “Yes – install ICS_4.0.1_r1-alpha7.zip”
    It will now flash the rom.
    Does your phone reboot into a blue recovery menu? Just follow the steps again as discribed above ^.

    Once we have done this, we will have to flash the kernel.
    1. In the recovery menu navigate to “install zip from sdcard” and press your selection key
    2. Now choose the option “choose zip from sdcard”
    3. Navigate to the folder we just made “Flashable zips”
    4. In there select “CM7FuguMod_20111124_update-i9000.zip”
    5. Now navigate to the option “Yes – install CM7FuguMod_20111124_update-i9000.zip”

    Once it’s done, go ahead and hit the “reboot system now” option.
    Now wait for the phone to boot. Take a coffee in the meantime, this can take a while.

    Now an important thing!!
    Android will comeup with 2 options, first check the box "set as default" then press the FIRST ONE!

    When it’s up and running, we need to install script manager. Open up the market and setup your gmail account. Once you’ve done this search in the market for “script manager”, and download & install Script Manager FREE.

    We need to flash a 3G fix by WarDrake. It seems the bootanimation is too big and it causes 3G to not work for most of us. Thus the bootanimation needs to be removed. Follow these instructions to flash this package.
    1. In the recovery menu navigate to “install zip from sdcard” and press your selection key
    2. Now choose the option “choose zip from sdcard”
    3. Navigate to the folder we just made “Flashable zips”
    4. In there select “enable3gv3.zip”
    5. Now navigate to the option “Yes – enable3gv3.zip”
    Thanks WarDrake for finding this out!!

    Once you've flashed the 3G fix go ahead and flash the superuser fix.
    1. In the recovery menu navigate to “install zip from sdcard” and press your selection key
    2. Now choose the option “choose zip from sdcard”
    3. Navigate to the folder we just made “Flashable zips”
    4. In there select “Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip”
    5. Now navigate to the option “Yes – Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip”
    When it’s done flashing hit the “reboot system now” option.

    Now the 3G script is already included, and you might have noticed a 3G icon above the signal bars, though data still doesn't work. For this part of the tutorial I’d like to thank WarDrake who simplyfied this fix. I’m using his instructions and all credits go to him!!
    1. Open script manager and go navigate to : /etc/init.d
    2. In here select the script named 99enable3g and open it as a script
    3. Now click on the button "help" and select: run as root, run at boot, run on network change. (DO NOT RUN IT)
    4. Hit the “save” button.
    5. Exit script manager

    Once you’re done reboot your device and suddenly….

    AAMMMMGGG 3GG NETWORKKZZZ <3

    Thanks again to WarDrake for this amazing fix!

    If you followed my instructions correctly, you should be running Alpha 7! If it doesn't work you are probably one of The Almighty R’tards and you will have to start all over again, good luck.

    Now you’ve all noticed I used the same tutorial everytime, that’s because It’s easier for people to understand, and they will learn how to flash files by doing the same procedure over and over.

    Disclaimer,
    If you somehow managed to f*ck this up, go to hell and go f*ck yourself.
    Mods feel free to remove my disclaimer.

    Please look through the F.A.Q before joining IRC and asking the same question over and over.
    F.A.Q
    Q: AAAMGG MIEE PHONE NO BOOOOOTTT?@!?!?!
    A: If you would have read the tutorial you would know that if your phone reboots into a blue recovery menu, you should FLASH THE ROM AGAIN.

    Q: My touchscreen doesn't work!
    A: Try reflashing the i9000 kernel, though if you are using a i9000b don't flash it.

    Oke, seems some ppl can't play nice. Thread locked till OP send me a PM or he is ready for update.

    Past few days i had to clean the mess up. This has to stop.

    Heads up:


    Well, system pushed to 350mb (old system + datadata size), i'll try to put together wifi and removed stuff on a single image.


    Cheers
