GAPPS are still being installed correctly on 5.0. Even with Aroma

Whats the problem here?

I flashed cwm v3. But I don't see a new installer.

You have to reboot the phone, then reboot into the recovery and you will see the difference.

I cant get passed the language selection screen when aroma first starts.i can scroll up and down with the volume rocker,but it doesn't do anything when I try to select "Next" with the power button. Touching the screen does nothing. I downloaded it 3 times,to ensure i was getting a good download.

If you are using cwm -2 you will need to use the camera button to select items. After the installer is finished, cwm will kick back an error. Everything is fine just reboot the phone.

If you install cwm -3 first, then you can use the touch feature in the new installer. The installer will also be able to reboot the phone and you wont see any cwm errors. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS WAY.


Joker,

Love the new installer! I love the tweaks that are built in! This makes for a MUCH easier install. This ROM just keeps getting better and better!! All of my friends have been jealous of my mopho ever since you started work on this ROM! (Even the sprint rep!) Please keep up the amazing work!

Did you install the rom , reboot recovery, and try installing again, as per the recommended installation

I flashed the cwm – v3 zip. I was already on 0.5.0. I dont see a "touch recovery" that people are talking about using. Is it in the Beta 0.5.0 touch based installer (recommended) zip?

Obviously you're either blind or can't read.. It's right under beta 0.5.0 rom

5.0 also seems to have fixed the screen lag or unresponsive issue. I can actually unlock my phone on the first try and pull the shade up and down without issue

Thanls

If you could flash back to a blur rom and update your profile.. Then flash cm9 3.2 then the newest one. After doing that it took few hours til it fixed itself

You want to make sure you're on Jokers CWM3. Once you flash that, reboot recovery so you can flash touch installer 5.0. No need to wipe cuz' touch 5.0 will do that for you! Hope this helps.

Is anyone having an issue with Batt % in .5.0 ?
It showed for me in the regular zip install, but of course I cant leave well enough alone. Got around to downloading the touch based installer and now I cannot get batt % to show at all.

Other than that, rock solid rom and the installer is nothing short of bacon wrapped awesome.

    Okay due to the recent changes in cm9 install process I am writing a short guide from my phone. A longer version is planned and will be posted on my site.

    If you wipe system you must flash the rom twice. Anyone that has followed long enough remembers the double flashing days till I fixed it. Well its back.

    So to update from any cm9 rom with wipe

    Factory reset
    Flash rom
    Flash gapps
    Simple.

    To update from any cm9 without wiping.

    Flash rom
    Flash gapps
    Simpler.

    To update from cm7, miui, gingerbread, etc

    Wipe system
    Factory reset
    Flash rom
    Flash rom again(notice it takes longer)
    Flash gapps
    Profit

    What about dalvik cache?
    Well it sits on data and is checked every boot. If it detects a change it will erase the old cache and rebuild. So if you do a factory reset you erase dalvik cache. If you upgrade versions without a wipe it magically erases dalvik for you.

    What about data or cache?
    Factory reset wipes data, cache, and apks installed on any sdcards.

    Why should I only wipe system if coming from a non-cm9 based rom?
    Cm9 has install scripts that copy certain noncm parts from system, installs then puts it back. If nothing is there it can't copy. Thus flashing twice.

    When do I flash gapps?
    Every single time.

    My battery sucks?
    Cm9 handles a lot more open apps then gingerbread. Multitasking is spectacular with ics. However running 70+ apps at once turns your phone into my ex and literally sucks the life out of your battery. This explains why there is such a drastic difference between battery life's with different users. Also keep in mind that we are using a froyo kernel, drivers from 3 different devices and none are ics tegra ap20 based, and this is still beta.


    So why do people get an attitude with me?
    Because you don't search or read. I purposely don't hold peoples hand. You must read at least some. There is always a risk with flashing anything custom. The more I baby people the dumber the questions get, however once stable I'll dumb it down to anyones level and tweak it to death. Currently I'm only going for a fully functional cm9. Then comes the fun

    Look this isn't a stable rom. Its not completed. Currently I'm trying to get sw encoding going for the camcorder. Right now that is causing the camera to run sluggish. Oc and you'll be fine in landscape. Camera does work. You people do realize we have no ics kernel or drivers? The fact that it works at all is pretty good considering how many devices out there don't have ics at all much less have camera.

    When I get time I'll make some revert flashables for people that don't like new test builds. I don't want 500000000 posts of flash this revert to get cm9 working. If you need what that revert has fine just don't direct everyone to only do it your way.

    This is a beta development project. I will be experimenting and breaking perfectly good stuff to find better setups. By the time I'm done cm9 will be close to perfect.
