PyroIce Tips, Tricks, and Help Guide. -Please Post Your Own Too :D- - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

I've made PyroIce my new Daily, and we all know it has some bugs. So I thought I'd start a thread to help Unclutter the fourm.
Here's the first thing I've found out.
- Wi-Fi Networks that are WEP/PSK locked can be connected to without having to Manualy put the name in.

Nova Launcher is a Great ICS Replacement Launcher. It can be downloaded from the Market. Or found on XDA as a flashable Zip. That makes it a system app, and allows widgets to be accessed from the launcher.
It has homescreen effects, drawer effects. Custom Grid Sizes, and all widgets are resizeable. Its the ADW of ICS, and is better than CM9's Launcher for 4.0.1.

Just saying that Nova Launcher is alreaddy included in the flashable rom

Is it buggy?
I want to install this on my wife's phone, but she has no appreciation for the great work being done here. I would rather not put something on her phone that is going to cause me grief.
Also, is the user interface the same?

to be honest, its a great rom. for people that know how to deal with beta roms. if your lookin for a grief free rom, id use another one. i use this but i dont mind the small issues and can deal with them. the user interface is ICS, so the same as ICS yeah? same and gingerbread.. no, lil different. more user friendly i think.

New release is wifey friendly... I think mine could handle it and she has to gripe for a couple months b4 she asks me to root her phone....

Good, the only reason I won't root my girls phone is cause I don't wanna fix it.
Does anyone know if you can unlink the notification volume and ringer volume in ICS?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk

first off, i think this rom is simply great, considering that ics is on very few devices right now, and that our phone is a bit slow in general with development (nothing against all the devs on this phone, cuz what they have made are all really good)
two questions:
does anyone know why the camcorder app is limited to 720p recording? it's definitely not a big issue, but this camera is considered to be one of the best, seems like a shame to waste it.
also, any way to fix the htc dialer showing up in the call and to answer a call you have to unlock first?
how's everyone's battery life doing? mine's much better than when i had cm7 on it

I was looking at 1080p but for some strange reason libstagefright camerasource detects that 1080p is not available. Coudlnt binary hack that, and no idea why that happens.
You can use fullscreen caller id to let you receive calls without unlocking, or can use widgetlocker from market with security set off.

gotcha ill switch over to the non sense version now, thanks for the quick reply.

Posting here because I'm still a "New" user and cant post in dev form.
I'm running PyroIce Sense and I cant view any flash websites. Anyone else having this problem? I've tried re-installing Flash, Dolphin (wont work on stock browser as well), and reflashed the rom.
Any ideas?

Try opera mobile - proper flash support is one of their selling points. Unsure if it'll help, but worth a shot - mobile, not mini.

If i enter full screen browser hangs. if i zoom in, it will play, but it's very choppy with elements of my wallpaper mixed in, sometimes it's the notifications bar that draws itself into the flash. It's very odd.
thanks for the help! (loving this rom BTW)

[Request] Espresso Rosie

Hi I'm new to the incredible, just retired the Eris. I was wondering if anyone here can port the espresso rosie to the Dinc. Sorry if its been posted already. I did do a search and came up with nothing. Thanks in advance if anybody jumps on this.

Yeah Gallery crashes. I hardly use my camera so its not really a big deal for me but I'd like to know if iot gets fixed.
Wasn't a big deal till I tried to change my wallpaper. Kinda Annoying, but its almost there.

The gallery should work if you rotate your phone before going into the gallery. You can still choose wallpapers and contact pics fine using that work around.
Yep turning the phone worked. Thanks again those who helped here.
The gallery crashing thing is why I abandoned it for Froyo shortly after porting it.
I deplore crashes, so I just can't tolerate it. Oh and I don't know how to fix it.
It might be easier to do now that we have s-off, but metamorph expert, I am not.

Yeah, I'd love to see this working properly. At least there's a workaround but I hate having to use a workaround just so it won't forceclose.
I wanted to bump this thread to see if there have been any updates for the Espresso Bar for Froyo that will keep it from crashing the gallery.
Thanks!

Ice cream sandwich launcher

I was reading around an found this.it's built by syndicate apps, look towards the bottom of the article an there's a link to download it.
http://www.slashgear.com/ice-cream-sandwich-launcher-app-hands-on-video-19180882/
Note: it's updated every night when they can
: there are bugs, it's an alpha release.
: not official, the more info they have bout ICS, we shall see it.
If you're experiencing lag when switching screens, let the app be on your phone, running for Atleast a day, then the lag should be gone.(that trick came from syndicates site)
For the record, i'm not affiliated nor do I direct contact with them, i'm just helping out.if you experience any issues, please send an email to them. I'll try my best to help.
From my fist to your face, enjoy.

Pros

cons

2) big settings wheel behind "running apps" is annoying and ugly

It was really slow for me, but raising the clockspeed helped with the lag I had, but I rather not OC just for a home app. HC is really nice, but it leaves more to be desired, it needs more optimizing or something to make it smoother. Sometimes it seems like a cool slideshow on the phone. But then again I haven't used HC since ver 1.6 I think.

There's no lag for me with ICS, no overclock,cm7.1 some other smaller hacks, nothing involving a performance boost. I did read on their site, that you have to leave it sitting on your phone for a little, maybe a day, then the lag would be gone.

[Q] Opinion on GenericGinger v2

I've been going through ROMs every few days or so trying to find one i like and i flashed this one today. I'm not sure how i feel about its speed, i guess i was just curious if anyone else has tried it and what they thought
Wow, didn't even know these ROMs existed
Probably the smoothest rom out there right now.

Well I just flashed this ROM, thank god I've been itching to test another ROM since the developer drought, I have to admit, this is amazing, so far, I can change my lock screen, this is very smooth and amazingly 2.3.5 like. More amazing features that I have found but I must say, very worth flashing.
yeah its not ginger clone it uses a lot of the framework of overdose it seems. I actually would like to get gingerclone going again but the links are broken.
Yeah, this rom is pretty smooth. I haven't noticed anything buggy on it yet.
Only thing I noticed is that it doesn't have a Task Manager.

Stock KJ2 does that, so I don't think it's really a rom issue per se. Seems like it doesn't keep the launcher layout in memory during high usage or something.

Yea one of our phones main problems is a severe lack of RAM, so the launcher usually has a hard time staying open when something else is bugging out the memory.

You can try using something like launcher pro and setting it to keep in memory, not necessairly guaranteeing that won't have other problems though...

Please know that ROM is essentially my gingerclone ROM with all the same asop apps and framework as well (with changes of course). I'm sure its updated to KJ2 with lockscreen mod by now but the poster of the ROM didn't even bother to change the OP format from my GC post. I'm not saying don't use his ROM.. if you like it do so, I'm jus speaking up because he didn't properly credit me or Sduvick. He's on XDA and used to post on the forums so idk why didn't he say something about it.

So is teddy really doing a new ROM? This would be fantastic news. Maybe have roboto as font and use ics icons?
And is it not possible with any of these roms to do the whole notification drop-down clearing of messages? Is that something that id definitely need ics for?

[ROM][25.May]UTB ROM 2.0 - As clean as can be

NEW VERSION IN TEST PHASE - COMING SOON
UTB-ROM for the HTC One S gives you a clean, no fuzz, CM9/AOSP based ROM.
Version 2.0 marks the start of the future. As we anxiously await the kernel drivers from HTC, talented developers are making good progress on getting AOSP running smoothly. While there are still some issues floating about, its time to start building the base for the new ROM.
Description
You have two options. v1.0.6 gives you an AOSP-like experience but with the comfort of the original stock HTC ROM as base. Most things work as expected. However, if you enjoy living on the bleeding edge, version 2.0 gives you an CM9 based ROM which will get some bleeding edge extras along the way. Version 2.0 is still very early in development and is currently pretty identical to a stock CM9 ROM, but I wanted to give a taste of what is coming.
Highlighted Features v2.0
CM9-base
Google Play Music
OLED-Optimized ICS Boot animation (true black levels)
Latest Google apps included for your convenience
Note that this is just an introductory release. It is plagued by the same bugs as the other AOSP/CM9 based ROM's are. But we are making good progress and soon we will get all bugs figured out, Im certain!
Highlighted Features v1.0.6
Stock Android apps (Trebuchet launcher, Android Messaging app, Android Contacts, etc, compiled from source)
Stock Android ICS notification bar
Most of the included HTC apps are long gone
Based on the new 1.64.997.1 kernel
Zipaligned
Just feels good!
Changelog
v1.0.6
Picasaweb added (syncing works, uploading is still an issue.. maybe because of this)
ICS Live Wallpapers
Updated Gallery app (Now shows your online photos)
1.0.5
Removed CruiserPwrExpert - A ridiculous logging tool from HTC that does nothing but drain your battery.
Removed the HTC Gallery
Removed HTC Music
Added AOSP Email and Exchange
Added Google Play Music
Added AOSP Gallery
Known Issues v1.0.6
Unlock required before answering call (Hard to fix as its a compatibility issue with Sense)
The HTC Camera is for some reason not willing to open the ICS Gallery for previews.
NOTE: If you are coming from a different base ROM than the one you are flashing, a full data wipe is encouraged and recommended.
DOWNLOADS

Be honest your ideas a good one.sense stripped away..add some tweaks change some GUI for image sake..I'm already running a stripped down rom..novas running.only thing that looks different are the menus.

Yeah, I left the stock HTC camera app and gallery app. The reason for this is the unique features of the ImageSense chip which I didnt quite get to work with the stock camera app.
HTC's settings are also still in as well as the HTC Music app, but I might be removing that in the next version. Unfortunately, until we get AOSP running on the One S, it will be difficult to escape HTC's customized stuff completely. But I am trying to get as close as I can without breaking anything.
In terms of bugs, I am still trying to resolve answering calls without having to unlock the screen. Apart from that, I havent found any other serious issues yet.
Feedback is most welcome though. Ive just made a ROM to satisfy my desires and needs

Thanks for the feedback. Good to know the foundation is stable and solid.
Is there an easy way to change the behaviour of the app switch button in here? I'd find it more useful to switch between apps than as a menu button.
Hmm haven't thought about it. Just made more sense to have a menu button. If you long-click the home button you get the app switcher though

Problem is that when you don't assign menu to one of the buttons you get the onscreen menu button back...
Sent from my HTC One S
The on-screen button doesn't really bother me. At least it tips you off that there are hidden settings in some apps. Over time there should be less need for a menu button anyway. Guess it's just a preference of mine, but very awesome ROM otherwise!
Shame there's no live wallpapers though.

Is everyone experiencing better battery life with this ROM? Also, what is the issue exactly with screen unlock? When you update the ROM, will we have to wipe? Do you know how long before answering calls bug is resolved? I happen to enjoy this version of Sense versus the older ones but I'm all for trying a "lighter" version of the OS.

To be honest, I didnt really use my device much before I flashed it, so its hard to answer the question of battery life with any certain degree of accuracy. But battery life is great for me and Im sure the new kernel doesnt do it harm either.
The screen unlock issue isnt really an issue, but more a HTC - Android AOSP incompatibility problem. When an incoming call occurs while the phone is locked, you have to unlock the screen first before being able to click the answer-button.
Hello..
very great rom.. i'd like to know if there is a battery mod for this rom!
Thanks
Ivan

[Q] Doubleshot Android 4.0.4 Sense4.1+4A Base Ville_U_ICS_40_S_2.31.401.5

I recently flashed this ROM and it appears to work pretty well. I'm just curious to know if anyone else has tried it? The only issue I see so far is some apps lag a little, but the battery life appears to be adequate. Total noob here so wanted to say thanks for all you guys do. Been coming to this site for a while since it's full of great resources.
No I haven't tried it, I am still S-ON and not sure how to flash with it on, when I get s-off ill like to try untill then have you experienced any glitches or fc's or anything?

I just flashed this ROM yesterday. The only issue I had was with the headphones (it would detect my favorite ones as Beats, but then there would be no sound. Cheap phones would produce sound, but not my good ones). The dev (sun_dream) quickly offered a patch that fixed this issue so now this ROM is my "daily driver". I'm not noticing any lag, it is running very well. I haven't had a chance to ascertain battery life yet. I do enjoy the look and feel of this, ICS with Sense 4.1. Note, you can switch to Sense 4.0a if you like using the HTC Sense ST app. From what I hear, Sense 4.0a is a little less resource intensive so could give you a little bit more responsive feel. I'm not sure what you sacrifice, though.
So far the only things that don't work: Face Unlock is really buggy with this. And the Gracenote app to download album covers for the built in Music app doesn't seem to download anything. And HTC Hub never finds anything to download. Those are very minor quibbles I can live with.

You can flash it while being S-ON. All you need to do is extract the boot.img from the ZIP file. Flash the ROM as normal, then use Fastboot to flash the boot.img separately. There is a good guide on here that tells you exactly how to do it.
So do youu guys like this rom better than vituous?
And can u guys give me the link to the rom and updates. Patches?

I finally had to go back to a stock-based Gingerbread ROM (my old standby Miktouch 0.7). This ICS Sense4 ROM just had too many little "gotchas" that made it unstable. The fix for the earphones cause it to completely crash if you try to record any sound. Everytime I tried to use an app like Soundhound or Shazam or MusixMatch, the phone would instantly reboot. I just discovered that is due to the patch that makes the earphones work.
I guess if you don't mind a portion of your phone being unusable, these ICS ROMs would be OK. For me, personally, I want all of the phone to work as it should, so I'm going back to stock ROM.
I haven't had the same experience with the headphones issue. So far my Subjekt phones have worked fine and no FC's. As far as the ROM goes the lag has seemed to have disappeared and I blocked some apps & processes using Gemini App Mgr. The Face Unlock is buggy for me as well. So far no other problems.

Cool, thanks found out how, also realised a easier way then the guide I found, just because it means less typing for me in cmd

You really should read the thread. It will give you alot more insight than just having the files. It's just a good habit to get into.
This rom seems interesting. So does everything work including the ffc, all camara features, and everything else? other than the gracenote and headphone thing?

There is no 1080 recording on any ICS. So everything but that and maybe tethering
