[ROM][Feb 6 2012] Pyr-o-Ice ICS 1.0.2 (Android 4.0.3,AOSPish desensed)|Cam&Camcorder

This is a thread for a Deprecated version of Pyorice ICS Desensed. SMS problem is no longer present in the newer versions so you might as well switch to that.

Pyr-o-Ice ICS 1.0.1 stable for HTC Doubleshot aka myTouch4GSlide

A Pyramid HTC ICS ROM conversion based on the leaked ROMs ports by RCTeam and RMK @ virtuous (Virtuous Inquisition). http://www.virtuousrom.com/
ICS AOSP 4.0.3 apps/gapps / Nova launcher beta 10 on htc's pyramid ICS framework and kornyone's HTC doubleshot kernel. ICS gapps preinstalled. It retains some of the aspects of the Sense base: most notably Caller Screen. Also using HTC Camera app (aosp doesnt work to full extent with the HTC libs that this ROM bases on).
Kernel with tun, encryption and cifs support.

FLASH IT AT YOUR OWN RISK! YOU MIGHT BRICK YOUR PHONE! (I DID NOT, BUT BE WARNED!)

0., Use latest CWM recovery and be S-off
1., Copy to SDcard
2., Full wipe needed
3., install the zip
4., After first boot, let the media scan (music) settle to fill your music apps and galleries, and read the TRICKS part below for useful tips.
5., Read this first post all through for a lot of information that might come handy!!

Stable, most stuff works with the known limitations, and it runs stable.

WARNING: DON'T SELECT System Settings / Wireless&networks More / Tethering&Portable Hotspot / Portable WIFI-Hotspot!!! It will freeze/reboot in cycle your phone!!! Use Barnacle + OpenGarden wifit tethering market apps instead, it works.
- DON'T TRY 1080p or MMS size in Video recording please, it doesnt work, and after it will make exit the Camera app when you try to take picture. If you did, a Reboot will fix it
Check "NOT works and What works part" and changelogs in second post, if theres any new versions later.

CREDITS:

Credit goes to them for the base, and RMK for creatng a desensed, AOSP looking ROM.
Thank you RCTeam, rmk and Virtuous team! http://www.virtuousrom.com/

Kernel is based on Kornyione's kernel and kernel tree of romanbb. Credit goes to him for his masterwork. Thank you, Kornyone!
Also to romanbb for his OC/UV kernel tree on github. Thanks!

I've done additional tweaks to the pyramid libraries let the ROM work with WiFi, keyboard, lights, camera(photo) etc and a big heap of kernel testing.
This is my first ROM development, took a heap of time to tweak the ROM, a lot of trial and error, a heap of kernel debug and configuration, and some AOSP source code hacking went in.

-------
What works:
- Call voice, SMS
- MMS sending/receiving (recommended app is handcent sms for that, works perfect, aosp one is buggy)
- Keyboard, hw keyboard rotation, softkeyboard when slided back
- 3D
- Camera (with SW jpeg encoding, gemini off!), tap focus, 8MPx, HTC camera app included for that
- Camcorder up to 720 (1080p doesnt work)
- SMP architecture (Scoring ~47 FPS on nenamark2 here on stock speed)
- Audio
- WiFi
- Mobile data
- Bluetooth (at least i've tested BT stereo audio and avrc, its not working with all the devices as its been reported)
- SDCard
- Market
- Gapps preinstalled (all works, gtalks video chat works!)
- GPS partially works if SIM card is in, but not the compass!
- youtube app
- FM radio
- Keyboard light, cycle though brightness setting if it doesn't trigger at firdt!
- tethering works with OpenGarden! (read TIPS -- doesnt work: the HTC or built-in tethering) GUIDE: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21409748&postcount=564
- Notification led
- Data usage stats for mobile data
- Face unlocking (System Settings/Security/Screen lock)
- Google Music ICS, streaming
- wired/bt Headset buttons (wired buttons work only with Music apps, not on the call screen)
- usb storage, works only in an automatic way,and YOU NEED TO RUN A SCRIPT, check here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21210045&postcount=328 , or use a commercial app from market (look for dual mount sd)
- native screenshot (press Power and VolDown exactly at the same time for 3 seconds!)
- built-in spell checking (GAPPS 4.0.3 LatinIME is now good)
- wired Headset buttons when calling and in music apps
- All sensors
- bluetooth tethering
- supports audio output to tv through jack-avc cable with my soon to be released bruteforce tvout app ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcAiXyzOe-Q&list=UUuhw3rQMHO_Oul-CMi8yp3A )
...

NOT works:
- If you dont use a specific CallerID app, with the default HTC caller id screen, you will have to unlock your phone first to see who is calling.
- WiFi calling
- Facebook full sync: you HAVE to manually merge contacts, no other way known so far
- Slide lock screen: touching anywhere unlocks, even if you dont slide it. (workaround use a pattern unlock, or custom locker )
- Caller screen and dialer buttons would need a resize, but ATM i cannot recompile those apks, i couldnt find a way yet
...you tell

=====

DEVELOPMENT FURTHER: NO ETAs

This is a call for other devs for help. Mostly these issues:

- etc., bugs
- wifi calling

I don't have a lot of time for developing stuff!
No ETAs on my side, don't ask for it. If things get resolved by me or other devs here, I'll update.
To quote myself on my intentions:

I must admit that as far as devving goes, im only willing to develop stuff that bothers me in my rom that i use on my phone... i have very little time for this, and i do this mostly to have ICS on my phone. So don't count on me releasing other ROMs than this, or ironing all the bugs. I love to have ICS on this doubleshot beast, but rarely will i fix something that doesnt bother my daily usage.

I'm updating new things on @illespal http://twitter.com/illespal follow it there,
and https://plus.google.com/104117834086133689848/posts on gplus.

------

TRICKS HOW TO USE THIS ROM:

- If you're having trouble with occasional screen blackouts, please consider trying this:
Download Android Terminal Emulator from market. Start it, and type:
~ su
# echo -n 15 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

- Screen on (trackpad wake replacement): you can press Power button, but the Menu and Back button will also wake the phone (not the trackpad yet, to be fixed in keylayout/keychar).

- Wifi tethering: read this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21409748&postcount=564

- SDCard will be scanned only on the second boot after fresh install normally, so Music apps will see your music on the second time. After that works as it should.

- symbols symbols key doesn't work, when set in keylayout it makes home button useless and doesn't work itself. Use Alt + Space instead (thx overhauling for the tip)

- Facebook sync: seems it doesn't switch off when you switch the global sync off, go into app instead and switch it off there.

- Forced 2d GPU related info (apps too small sized) (thx Overhauling):

Also, Forcing GPU Rendering under development options may cause some apps to go crazy and show up super, super small (They won't even fit on 1/3 of the screen). But disabling this option makes them go back to normal.... You could observe these effects on the "WordMate" app (And other similar ones).

- Caller ID when incoming call needs screen unlocking - Full Screen Caller ID Lite from market can help the problem, it will override the lock screen.

-----

BUGS

Some applications did not work correctly for me, it crashes. If you can get Logcat of the crash posted here in this thread, that could be useful, tho I can't promise I'll
take care of them, but eventually if I or other devs have time it might be very usuful to have logcats.

BATTERY LIFE - CALIBRATION - User experience,(thx overhauling and dillalade)
About too fast drain:

I had a similar issue until I recalibrated my battery.

Anker 1900mah, setCPU and this ROM:

Yesterday/Today achieved a full 30hours with anker. 1900mah.

But I did setup setcpu with some very very stingy profiles... Although it didn't seem to hinder performance much at all.
Nice.... Battery stats defo detail that screen is taking half of the battery consistantly (across all 4 of my ankers.)

Recalibration app on market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration - Generally you'll have to charge to 100%, use this app and then do a few drain to around 0%, charge to 100% cycles.

Screenshot app Just press Power + VolDwn exactly at the same time. If you want another way, look for Screenshot ER lite on market.

Notification pulldown power menu Try widgetsoid 2.x from market. It can be personalized to show only in the Notification area (no widget), and color can be set to match the ICS blue. Very nice... Example shot: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21078453&postcount=1865

XDA post from January 2012 about this rom when it was just in alpha stage, thanks PoorCollegeGuy:

Development related
Framework and apps based on virtuous inquisition http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1408351 and cm kernel by kornyone modified by tbalden
currently camera status:
Works with gemini support configured OFF of the kernel.

If GEMINI were on, this former note applies:
I've traced down camera crash to kernel level. It seems that for some unknown reason, the Pyramid libraries are calling multiple pmem_mmap calls to /dev/pmem_adsp, which is currently unsuppported by the driver pmem_8x60 (doubleshot kernel /drivers/misc/pmem_8x60.c).
I've hacked it to not return -ENINV, instead it frees up the vm memory, and reallocates by the new parameters. This made the stuff not to crash, and preview is working.
However when takePicture in QualcommCameraZSL is done (/system/lib/camera.default.so), buffers are not okay, output buffer is lost, or 0 sized, no idea. LibGemini kernel drivers has no output buffer and thus fails to push the snapshot taken by the camera...

Additional info Camera: i was informed by 'bricked' dev team's dev that the camera thing is mostly impossible to work with the old kernels we have for doubleshot. ZSL driver part in kernel were updated, changed. So sad to say that, camera fixing is on hold till a real HTC Sensation (pyramid) kernel will be out...that will be after they release a stable ICS release...lets hope they work fast.

-----------
Keyboard SYMBOL/WWW buttons:
editing the keylayout to add SYMBOL and WWW buttons results unworking Home keys.

Gonna have to leave that unworking for now.

ICS? IN MT4GS? its more likely than you think!

Dude! This is great progress! We need ICS on the MT4GS.
I just hope one of the devs goes 100% SENSELESS with a ICS rom.

DistrictDigital · Dec 27, 2011

I'm going to cry, dude. Thank you so much. Maybe our device will bring more to the table now!

Litesorrows · Dec 27, 2011

You should talk to Undead over on Rootzwiki. He's an amazing DEV, I'm sure he can help you out.

Emmanuel U · Dec 27, 2011

I already Pm'd him

overhauling · Dec 27, 2011

This is great. I've been running it for 10 minutes and I already love ICS

tbalden · Dec 27, 2011

Further fiddling, and update: Fixed calling sound. It was the miniDSP config files that i used in the rom, from doubleshot... Using the ones from Pyramid, Call Voice is perfect......... Soon I'm gonna give you a new flashable fix for that...

Further fiddling, and update: Fixed calling sound. It was the miniDSP config files that i used in the rom, from doubleshot... Using the ones from Pyramid, Call Voice is perfect......... Soon I'm gonna give you a new flashable fix for that...

Any fix for the orientation? Other than that and the Camera this would be my new daily driver.

I'm using ADW to fix the Homescreen Orientation. Also opening the browser, then sliding open the keyboard. Then closing the browser makes the Homescreen in Port.

Thanks for your input!

Very few ICS roms have working camera. The lucky part is that we have the HTC framework in this port, and the Virtuous Inquisitor ROM has camera working. But we might hit kernel problems. I havent analyzed that part yet too much, just ackowledged that it doesnt work, should look into logcat later.

Orientation might be easier to fix, but yet it needs to be analysed, what exactly is the problem. The HTC G2 vision had something similar IIRC, so there might be a higher chance to have this fixed.

Also someone should take the tideous task to churn through the keychar and keylayout files under /system/usr/ to fix all the keyboard stuff, and we would be quite in beta then.

For now Im just friggin happy to at last find the call voice issue fix... next time (no ETA), i'll check the camera logcats.

Folks, check the OP for the flashable fix for Call voice and GPS coordinates.

Btw, bluetooth works with stereo headset. (Go into the device and choose Audio too there, even if its green checked already, that worked here)
Gonna add that to the OP too, later.

Does USB Host, and Bluetooth Gamepad support work? IE, Gamepad, Sixaxis, or Wiimote?

Tips and Tricks

Fix for Orientation-
Download the apk in my attachments and set some profiles...(you can hold the search button to switch orientation

)

Fix for not wanting to sleep-
Press the power button a little bit longer but before the power prompt comes up (works everytime)

This post will be updated as I find more fixes as this is currently my daily driver

Working on making some mods as a flashable zip (NO GUARANTEES)

It's awesome you got so much to work with this Frankenstein build using my CM ICS kernel!

Litesorrows · Dec 28, 2011

So Kornyones kernel is only 1.2Ghz? Where having 0 luck with stable OC's. But isn't this kernel unfinished?

What's up with the lockscreen? Is that an issue in orientation?
