Since the development section is becoming all too over saturated with general discussion. This thread is meant to help users of ICS 4.0.3 by Lupohirp. While this is a beta, I think that it's stable enough for anyone looking for the ICS experience to use daily.


NOTE: UNRESOLVED APN ISSUES WITH T-MOBILE (NO DATA, WIFI ONLY)


BETA 3 CHANGELOG:
(Released 14/2/2012)

FULL OPENGL RENDERING
3D
MIC FIXED
ENABLED GENLOCK SUPPORT IN KERNEL (A Precursor for developers to fix Camera, NOTE: CAMERA IS NOT YET FUNCTIONAL)
CPU SET ON BOOT FIXED



Install:
http://ics4p500.blogspot.com/
Wipe data/ factory reset
Wipe Cache
Advanced>Wipe Dalvik
Reboot System

Reboot into Recovery
Flash this version of GAPPS (FULLY Tested and working specifically on this ROM)

Reboot and enjoy Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 on your Optimus one.




EDIT: FOR BETA2 USERS ONLY
Flash this Microphone/ Audio fix (thanks to cyrix.vs)
Mirror
(To enable voice through apps such as Skype, Google Voice, guitar tuner/ anything that isn't a standard phone call that requires use of your microphone)


OPTIONAL (Recommended) Kernel:
Franco3 kernel (2.35 kernel with kgsl drivers backported from 3.0 or 3.1 kernel)


Current bugs:

Please remember this is still in the early beta stages. It is stable enough to be used as a daily ROM, but there may be small issues. Please report them and I will update this thread with known bugs.

Camera does not connect (_Arjen_ is currently in the process of re-writing camera driver.)

Stock browser has been known to glitch out ( Temporary Fix: Install Browser+ )

Stock ICS Live Wallpapers do not work
(Live Wallpapers from market or elsewhere install and work perfectly fine though)

Audio problems with Speaker/Bluetooth Low Sound Volume ( Missing file libraries, Will probably be fixed in Beta3)

Mono Audio instead of Stereo
(Will probably be fixed in Beta3)

Audio Player Bug
(CM9 Music App plays through speaker occasionally after calls, PowerAMP auto-plays whenever a headset is plugged in) (PowerAMP is more manageable imo)


APN issues (Connecting to 3G/4G through T-Mobile & Vodafone)

Overclocking/ CPU Settings:
Conservative
480/ 748 (things get unstable at 768 and higher on my device)

Recommended Apps for ICS:


AirDroid (wirelessly manage & control your Android device from a web browser Over-The-Air. No more USB needed)

Keyboard:
Swype Beta

Thanks guys. Could you guys post general tips / settings / issues that aren't covered in my initial post so that I can update this thread?

Like battery life, Personal preferences of Governors and Overclock frequency, etc

Not yet, current release is build for armv7, but perhaps someone builds a version for armv6 when all code is merged into Chromium.

Updated... I didn't know there was a Franco Kernel for ICS. I just flashed it, and it's much smoother than the original kernel that came preinstalled (of course it is a Franco Kernel so that's pretty much expected) ;)

It's a kernel Lupohirp build using Franco's sources.
If I'm right it this version will be stock kernel for next beta-release.

Is that so...ill try it out...one last question...its not a good idea to flash back to v10e while still running cm9 ? Wouldn't you first have to flash an old BB rom than flash the old baseband

I flashed new baseband first, then did a clean install of CM9.
If you flashed back to OldBB while using CM9 you shouldn't have any Data or Phone Signal.

    CM9 is still being developed.
    I know Adfad and hepheppy do, just check github.
    Lupohirp will be working on it too, like he said.
    And I am also still working on it :D

    By the way, not all members on our team know how to work on this.
    We all have our own tasks and help eachother when we are stuck ;)

    A few suggestions to forum users who flash roms and software

    I am a 65 year old guy who bought O1 for a lark and found a lot of fun in rooting and using custom roms. Based on my personal experience and on what I read daily I request my fellow members, especially those who are relatively new to follow a few simple rules:

    1. Read thoroughly before rushing to flash. Just because it is easy does not mean it cannot damage your phone or give you poor performance.
    2. If flashing a ROM, in my view even an upgrade of the same ROM, wipe everything except SD Card and start a fresh install. Unless the Dev has specifically instructed that you do not need to do a data wipe. Keep backup with TB (Titanium Backup). This will avoid so many problems being aired daily (incl on the DEV FORUM). For example some have reported that in the CM9 (latest) wifi is not working or this and that is misbehaving. These are working perfectly for others if you follow good practices.
    3. Secondly, try all your new ROMs at standard max frequency of 600 Mhz. Once you are sure everything works then increase the speed in stages.
    4. If it is working for others as per the forum then repeat the process of flashing with data/full wipe etc at least once before jumping to the forum to report an error.
    5. The forum has lots of information and many have been through the problems you may be facing - use others experience by searching. Most things have already been answered. Do a google search as well and other forums will have information that might be useful.

    Remember that every mail of a problem that is not real wastes your time to document it and that of hundreds of readers who go through your post.

    Spend a half an hour of your own and you will be happy to have solved it yourself.

    Even so, I would still remove the optional folder in the latest gapps (gapps-ics-20120224) as it takes up quite a lot of space. The size of the file went from around 50 mb down to around 26 mb (and after I flashed the smaller gapps, I only had around 8 mb free).

    The optional folder is only installed on selected devices. The gapps script checks our phones for necessary files. Since we dont have them the optional folder is skipped during the installation.
