Wifi Tether Issue
Wifi tethering works using the app with CM9. I put it on Generic-ICS mode and I can connect fine. But, my speedtests do not reflect the same speed I am getting on my Droid 4.
On my Droid 4 with 4G LTE, I get around 20 down, 15-20 up. But, on my EVO 4g connected via WiFi, I only get about 5 down, 3 up.
Any ideas on how to improve speed?

My 4G, and actually, all data crapped out after about a day of uptime, a reboot brought it back, but I thought I should mention. This was on the 06/26/12 build.
Edit: Just went out again, about to install the 06/27/12 build.
Edit: On 06/27/12 build, so far, so good.

I've been waiting this one out, but here's an annoying bug that's been around since day one, and persists to 06/29/2012
This is the result of taking a screenshot, you see the same effect when rotating between portrait and landscape, and in other instances.

i am new to flashing roms on motorola phones. i usually have htc phones lol. whats the difference is cm9 (i know what cyangenmod is lol) and aokp. and i'm just on rooted stock now. and does cm9 and/or aokp support theme engine so i can download themes from the market?
They both support standard themes you'll find on the market. CM9 is closer to AOSP, AOKP has more customizations. It's really just a matter of preference.
That's exactly what I'm having right now, except no mobile data either. It says "avoided weak signal" or somethiung when I go into the wifi network list. But it shows full strength when I'm right next to the router, drops to 1 bar as soon as I try connecting.
Yep mine would say something about avoiding weak xonnection.

Just on the off chance, does anybody have a working webtop (or alternative) with cm9? That is my main drawback, I need webtop.

We don't even have working HDMI yet.
But yeah, I'm hoping for Ubuntu or something similar.
ok i know the data issue is a big deal like the dropping the data but i litterly dont have any thing ever. like i dont have any data ever. does ne one have any suggestions on how i can fix this?
Switch to stock, and toggle data options there too, I'm sorry, I can't remember which combination did it, but I had a similar problem, and messing with the settings in stock helped to fix it.
Peeking at the GitHub commits, I think Dhacker is laying the foundation for working HDMI, eager to see if anything changes with the next build. Also looks like he's working on AudioFlinger, which I'm hoping will fix the audio wakelock issues I'm having.
Has someone gotten this working on GSM in Europe?
I tried both with the AOKP and CM9 ROM's on 213 ICS leak:
- AOKP would let me enter the PIN number of my sim card
- CM9 show the PIN entry screen very briefly but it disappears too fast to be able to enter something.
After that the result is the same with both roms:
It would get no reception, when going to settings > More... > Mobile Networks I get an FC on com.android.phone
GSM reception + data connection works fine in the 213 stock leaked ROM

in /system/build.prop you should try to change ro.telephony.default_network=0 or =3, try both separately.
build.prop should be edited in zip file, before flashing. So,
1. edit build.prop from cm9 zip file
2. replace it in zip with winrar or similar software
3. wipe /data, /cache, dalvik cache
4. flash new zip and try GSM.
the string 'ro.telephony.default_network=10' occurs 2 times in the build.prop file, should I change it in both places?

17FLASHING ROMS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND COULD POTENTIALLY DAMAGE YOUR PHONE -- WHILE I MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT NOT TO LET THIS HAPPEN, IT'S STILL A RISK THAT YOU'RE TAKING. IF SOMETHING BAD SHOULD HAPPEN TO YOUR PHONE, PLEASE DON'T BLAME ME -- HENCE THIS WARNING.
This isn't so much a ROM announcement as it is a direction to find the unofficial nightly builds of CM9 for the Droid 4 (based on Motorola ICS leaks)
Download Here from ROMbot
Download GApps Here (04/29 Goo-Inside GApps Link).
FLASH THE GAPPS.ZIP FILE AFTER YOU FLASH THE ICS.ZIP
WHAT do I need to run this ROM?
- Rooted
- Running a Motorola ICS leak (.206, .208, .211, etc)
- I recommend that you run Safestrap v2.00 to install this. Here's how to use Safestrap
And you can download Safestrap for the Droid 4 (v2.x for ICS-leak users) here:
Safestrap « Hash-of-Codes
WHAT can I expect to work right now?
- 4G and basic phone function
- All sensors
- Camera, Panorama and Face-unlock
- Video Recording
- HD YouTube
- Netflix
Current Known Issues?
- Data connection is a work in progress. It's MUCH better than it used to be in the old ICS builds, however there is always room for improvement. Due to the "global" data connection style of stock Motorola ICS, this problem will probably continue to be worked on. Feedback is always appreciated, but if you see it posted already then there's a good chance I know about specific issues.
- Currently, there is a bug in the rotation display of the phone. What I mean is, that when you take the phone and rotate it, the display will squeeze in on itself and then pop back out. This is a *known* issue and I'm working very hard to fix it.
- The CM9 built-in Wifi Tether won't work. You need to use the "Wifi Tether" app that's bundled into the ROM. Once you open it, hit [menu] and "Settings". Select "Change Device-Profile" to "Generic ICS".
- I'm sure there's more, I'll update this list here in a bit.
WHO works on this?
Myself and @DHacker29 work as a team to build AOSP-based ROMs (and device setups) for several Motorola phones. Typically, I do the coding work in C, C++ or Java while DHacker maintains the blobs, runs merges with CM/AOKP sources, and solves device issues which require less coding.
WHAT is a "nightly"?
It's an automated build ran from a script. It basically: deletes the current set of output files, sync's with github, and then attempts to do a brand new build. It can break at times, in which case we'll fix it (usually this happens when there are framework changes which didn't get merged).
WHY would I want this?
- Since we work on several devices, this is how we decided to start keeping builds up-to-date. Rather than spend several hours a week on builds and uploading. This happens automatically every night around 2am PST.
- It's up to you the community to identify good "stable" builds.

[ COMING SOON ]2Well I can assist in your issue.
I too was skeptical at first about safestrap but its pretty self explanatory.
You have the concept down that it backs up your original system 1 and creates a system 2 to then be altered and flashed without touching system 1.
I had the Droid X and that had a locked bootloader as well.
From my research a locked bootloader just denies the "lowest" level of access to the phone which includes flashing radios and kernels.
Other than that, Yes you can install D4 Safestrap which acts just as CWM Recovery in order to flash this Rom and or others.
Remember when flashing to ENABLE safestrap before you flash and always backup, wipe data, cache, and dalvik
Hope that helps explain some of it to you.
I have ICS this beta running on my D4 like a champ2
I was able to get it installed and working just fine under safestrap. Did you wipe data, cache, and dalvick?2
That was it. First time I've used safestrap. I figured since I did not have a previous ROM installed in Safemode that I did not need to wipe. Went back in, wiped data and cache and now I am in business. Looking good Hash!
One question though, I tried to wipe dalvik and it said it could not find sd-ext. Any idea what that is about?
Edit: Feels so good to be flashing ROMs again!!!
