You're not the only one that is waiting for a stable ICS build for the little hero

Stefan

I wouldn't imagine that I was!

anyhow - running this and damn but I like the tron-ish new UI of ICS! cool, quite responsive overall, and very sexy!

it hasn't made any noises yet though - I'm thinking sound isn't working yet (if this was pointed out already then I'm sorry).

it keeps saying "sim card found, restart to enable data" or similar, I keep hitting that restart button and nothing happend for several times of that alert. but thsi time it did restart the phone. however I tried making a call and it still say no access.

touch scree nis great now- who cares if occasional pointer image is left behind.

phone/data are priority now, and also sound if I'm right about sound not working.

the new dialer is sexy!

Downloading now but will flash at a more sociable hour......... by which time it'll be fully operational.

I can live in hope I suppose. Good luck fella's.

Mediafire not allowing download. Will try again tomorrow.

Man, this is great. I was having second thoughts about keeping Hero but not anymore. This phone will live forever and it doesn't deserve to be sold. Keep up the good work.

Cheers

seriously guys - I ran alpha 2 and it was nearly as responsive as pico or other not uber fast but still usable roms. and those roms have a ton of work done to speed them up!

if this thing didn't keep popping up alerts about not having a sim card then I'd have kept it running longer so I could really get to know it... the wifi worked perfectly!

but the alert for sim issues prevents use of the rom - it keeps appearing and I can't cancel it, just have to accept it. and when it works right it actually reboots your phone (by design).

so if that sim card thing can get fixed then we'll be ready to really test this thing out. possibly... just possibly... even use the thing daily.

but again I wasn't sure about the sound output - I never heard anything but couldn't really test it properly.

'Forced-hardware acceleration' can be turned on and off by changing "one line of xml" according to vergecast-003 (10:45)

haha I got this to boot on my pandigital novel with a lot of elbow grease. Just waiting for source to finish downloading - it's only taken me 3 or 4 days now... Anyone in a giving mood? I'd love to see what was changed to fix compiling for armv6 - or did you just compile for armv5? A repo to peruse would be very helpful

Loxxy · Nov 19, 2011

Glassmacka alpha 2 rom installed, seriously bloody well done mate !!!

just need to get google accounts on there

and squeal

Habarug · Nov 19, 2011

Seriously. It's awesome! After trying alfa 2 I'm certain that we at some point will have ICS rom stable enough for daily use. While the launcher is pretty slow, the people app (without any content

) is reaaaaally smooth!

And I haven't really come across much bugs, some graphical bugs and some apps suddenly closing, but for an alfa it's aaawesome

Actually, if you press outside of the message, it usually goes away. But yeah, we need a fix!

You can also enable it from settings! It's in Settings> Developer Settings I believe. Haven't really tested if it gives us much of a speed increase. We actually don't even have proper graphics driver support yet so I doubt it!

I compiled it for armv5te. I'll leave the porting of Dalvik to the Cyanogen devs!

Loxxy · Nov 19, 2011

guys my weekend is free (except kids) so if you have an pre-alpha builds you want installing and feedback given more than happy to do so.

Just stunned at what a beautiful rom it is

Bisu007 · Nov 19, 2011

Awesome

Dude, you're my god.

Work on and good luck

Notn4 · Nov 19, 2011

i can't find camera app and message app?

guy_smiley · Nov 19, 2011

My hero used to complain about no sim card with custom roms. My solution was to turn off the pin code. Hth

This is real crazy! ICS on my Hero now

Using WiFi and the default browser to surf web. No problem at all

Make one call out and used my land line to make a call in to my mobile.
Was able to make call connection both times but only the earpiece on Hero could be heard......the micpiece on mobile was not functioning.
Used another mobile to send me a sms but realised there's no message app.

No camera app as well but there's Gallery

Gallery was also not fully functionable anyway...photos from my SD card only partially viewable in Thumbnails view but not in full enlarge view.

Cool! The general feeling right now is that ICS on Hero is quite responsive and not draggy at all. Thanks!

Did you manage to make a call on this ROM?! You don't get the "You've entered a new SIM card and have to reboot"-popup all the time? Weird!

Where are you from and what's your provider?

Loxxy · Nov 19, 2011

yep call functionality works ok

could you add the following:
messaging
google account functionality
android market
rom manager

that would be the best christmas present ever !!!

please don't take this post as arrogance, i couldnt do a better job, just really to keen to use this as my daily rom

---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

what is the recommended method for updating between releases, in my stupidity i wiped cache and data prior to flashing rom.

Installed Market 3.3 which kicks me out of the app, due to lack of framework i guess

I'm in Singapore and provider is SingTel.
Yup, strange that i didn't encounter the 'SIM card' prompt/reboot thing during my brief ICS spell.
But I could flash back again if you need more test feedback

stritfajt · Nov 19, 2011

This is very weird. I can't seem to establish a network connection. Sometimes it shows what provider I'm connected to but when I try to make a call, I'm getting told that I'm not connected to the network. I'll have to investigate this!

Could anyone who's able to make calls do a adb logcat and see if they're getting this nasty error every 15 seconds: http://pastebin.com/UDZ1n1Ji?

Everyone but loxxy has that issue plus simcard alerts and no phone or data.
