[ROM][Pre-Pre-ALPHA] Droid A855 ICS Build Attempt

TheLoonyRebel · Mar 9, 2012

The hold up right now is trying to fix the issue causing the phone to stay stuck on the "M" on bootup. Hopefully once that's fixed then things will get moving. Be patient on this a bit folks.

In the meantime I do highly recommend checking out the newly released Steel Droid 10. I got it on my D1 right now. Runs fantastic and has a very nice ICS like look to it.

So far it is very smooth

Only issue I've stumbled on is setting the lockscreen wallpaper does not work. It works with the wallpaper and solid color options but not custom image.

Can't wait for the next ICS release though! Keep up the great work here.

I tried Steel Droid 10 (Unthemed)
it was fast and smooth, but some apps like Rom Manager didnt work. Heard there were many other issues with it, too.

I'm going to stick with CM7 using ChevyNo's kernals

Running SD 10 on OG Droid, only issue I had/have was wouldn't boot with stock kernel, flashed alternative and runs issue free. Best ROM out for OG Droid.

lol you should read this thread, its very educational. The rom doesn't boot right now and builds have been put on halt while the cause is investigated.

saw this i the nook color thread, i know theyre both omap but different revisions and knew you guys tried using some of the defy source. but theyre apparently close to getting hwa with it http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23457950&postcount=2054

I've been running this on my OG Droid as an alarm clock and I love it. I haven't used this phone as a phone in a while but with not much installed it was running great.

Thank you for keeping this device alive

For now. I did however find the fixes for the colors (a stray commit from months ago) and a hack for when hwa is unavailable for anyone continuing on it.
Currently I am too wrapped up in 6 other phones that are msm to keep going back and making fixes for omap one at a time.

flashing my sprint evo 4g to cricket and replacing my verizon droid og(also on cricket).. looks like im going to be using the og as a music player/alarm clock...

Ugh

It sickens me how much people give up on the Droid. Guess we're forever stuck with CM7. Im done following this thread. I had hope for you, Twisted.
Way to let me down.

Kinda harsh isn't it? Twisted put his own free time into working on this and got a lot of progress done. I applaud him in his efforts and hope he knows how appreciative we are of his work. I can definitely understand that he has too much on his plate and needs to drop this for now.
