I'll give it a run...thanks ID
Downloading now
Music doesnt read internal
Camera only goes up to 3mp
camcorder goes up to 480p
Great port either way.
Also when trying to hang up on a phone call, it just says hanging up and doesnt do anything. Just stays on the phone call

Fun!! /ten
Holy ****. This rom is AMAZING! If we could get the camera fixed for optimum performance, that'd be fantastic.
trying to enable wifi makes it reboot
if that could get fixed i think i would use this mainly... it just feels so fresh and new
Thanks IncDoes!
Thanks! Been wating to try this even with the known bugs
Also, i imagine aosp kernels for this, right?
This really does have a lot of potential.. I hope some one takes it over...
Thanks id! It's really cool, but I am also getting a bootloop when I enable wifi

I see theirs bug (as with any ROM) but will be watching this. Hope someone picks this up. It could be EPIC.
Sweet rom.
As others have pointed out.
Phone reboots when turning on wifi.
No verizon apps in market.
No TV Out
Ill be watching this rom closely .. I like what im seeing so far
Sent from my Liquid using XDA App
Gave this ROM a brief run noticed the following bugs:
As noted before, wifi forces a reboot. Weather service isn't reporting correctly, neither is GPS. Camera appears to work till you actually try to use it. Force closes after a few taps. Noticed that the ROM is sluggish performance wise, but this is likely due to all the other bugs. Really hope a dev takes this one up, definitely has a lot of potential.
It was a brief and fun escape from MIUI, but this ROM doesn't stack up. The lockscreen is the best part. Aside from the bugs, the ui is not very intuitive. Acer almost tried too hard to be different. Takes too many taps to get some things done. For example, you have to long press the home button to access the widgets, and then swipe to the one you want. The actual home screen is very limited in what can be on it. It's almost as if there are two ui's stacked atop one another.
Btw, I tried a different kernel. I think it actually installed properly, but the kernel didn't update in 'settings'.

Wow this is amazing... Great work
Works much better with launcherpro. The stock launcher is sorta bogus even though is fun to show off to other people.
This way you get a good home launcher and that awesome lockscreen.
I'm finding the same things that all of you are, although I've tinkered with mine to the point that it won't re-boot past the "acer" screen. I did a full wipe (dalvik, cache, setting) and I'm back into the setup screens.

So here is my situation...
First, what I want:
I txt a lot, don't really call much. I want an extremely fast ROM. Light weight (I don't run many apps at all, Pandora, and uh...well thats about it), and not heavy on the theme. I'm happy with Helix launcher.
I also want the HTC dialer, I hate all the other dialers. I want the HTC dialer because I press numbers to spell names to call people. Only other dialer I found that does that is DialerPro or some garbage.
My problem:
My HERO is very very very very slow. With Pandora running sometimes it just locks up completely while still playing music.
If I am getting a txt or have justt sent one, there is a 5-10 second lag in the phone doing anything or responding at all.
Sometimes I can't unlock it, I try to draw the pattern and it doesn't pick up my touch Until half way through the pattern. This is the same with Swype, sometimes it doesn't pick up my swype until half way through, or sometimes it just ends it early.
Its really driving me insane. I don't honestly see how anybody would ever keep this phone if it was acting like this for everyone else. Sometimes I have to make calls in a hurry (God forbid I ever need to dial 911) and the phone just sits there and locks up, or lags horribly and skips numbers, or just force closes almost everything.
I have tried many roms. Currently I am on the CM6 2.2 (inb4 experimental) but I'm willing to try others. I have had the SAME problems on other roms.
I have also tried changing phones and have the same exact freezing and lagging issues.
So please, suggest a rom that is very light weight, allows me to use the HTC Dialer, and doesn't freeze all the damn time.

Not really one out there... for speed and lightweight I recommend aospMOD, but you'd have to give up the dialer. There's always dialer one, which is similar though
Do you use autokiller? Usually when people have similar problems to yours they don't run autokiller and when they do their problems go away. Give it a try. I would say aggressive setting in your case.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
CM6 will fix all your lag, but you'd have to sacrifice your dialer. Are you sure you can't find a third party dialer that works for you?
Sense is very resource-heavy on any phone, so AOSP is type best bet.

Agreed, and dialer one can pick up some of that sense-like feel
If you really want the speed and responsiveness, you are likely going to have to leave Sense behind. Like others have said, an ASOP-based ROM (such as ASOPmod or CM6.1) would be the best bet. If you tried CM6 in the past, give CM6.1 a shot. At least for me, the move from 2.2 to 2.2.1 was a DRAMATIC improvement in the fluidity of the phone's responsiveness and 'feel'. Smooth as silk and buttery on top.
If possible, pair this up with a modestly overclocked kernel. I personally use Decad3nce's latest (11/12/10) CFS 768mhz kernel clocked @ 729 via the Deca battery mod. Once you set up the ROM, kernel, and battery mod - you should be golden.
Also of note, I do use LauncherPro, and run with JIT enabled and all the CM performance tweaks in place except for CompCache, which I leave disabled.
Good luck in your endeavors to remove the lag from your Hero - don't worry, it's definitely possible!
As a sequel to my Cyanogen Nighlies thread, I thought it appropriate to create a celebratory post linking to the stable release of 6.1.0 for the Droid Incredible.
Please reply with your experiences, inquiries, and love for one of the smoothest, rock solid ROMs available for your device. I am also open to ideas about what else to include in this OP including links to themes, juicy nuggets of relevant info, or known issues (should we find any that are repeatable).
For now, please enjoy this excellent release, and kick a few pennies up to Koush. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Download link (or just grab it from ROM Manager):
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=inc&type=stable
Known issues:
-Cyanogen default auto brightness adjusts only once, so moving from light to dark results in protracted dim settings.
-While disconnected from the charger, trackball wake will intermittently fail. This is a known bug and has been filed as such.
-Flash Test does not do anything for applications that don't have a customized setting. It should still blink using the systemwide default green when a real event comes in.
Solution Sets/Workarounds:
To install the new Market and avoid FCs:
1) settings-applications-manage and delete cache for the market
2) wipe cache
3) wipe dalvik cache

Which version do you prefer?
Incredibleks. Best Kernel ever. Seriously, for AOSP Roms, it is the choice. Seriously, overclocking on a snapdragon is pretty pointless. The speed differences are pretty much non-existent.
op link is messed up. you got an emoticon stuck in it
wow.. it took a while but nice to see it make final.. seemed like it was never gonna make it past rc status
I'm on 17 and love it but it appears that different kernels are acting differently on different phones. I was on 18 for a while an noticed that battery life wasn't as great and went back to 17, while other people said that 18 was better than 17 on their phone. Now 19 is out and if you look at the last couple of pages half the posts say that 19 is the best yet for battery and the other half is reporting ridiculous battery loss. You're probably best off getting the most recent one listed on the first post (#18).
Great ROM. I was running the nightly for literally a day only to come back at night and see a stable. This + the Gingerbread theme + Gingerbread Launcher will hold me over until the source drops for GB and we get a port
L.E.D don't work when getting text,mail,etc... other then that runs smooth. Thanx for all the hard work u guys put into these!
One question I have is this: I know how to remove the status bar widgets, but after doing so I'm stuck with that blank space normally occupied by the Verizon Wireless banner. Is there a way to put that back in there so there isn't that gap?
Odd that I want it back I know, but some things I'm just anal about.
Is there anyway to make it so that when you unlock and turn off the screen its instant instead of the fade out effect?

What's wrong with the stock kernel? Invisiblek are very solid but going to give koush's stock kernel a try.
On a side note, does anyone know if the stock kernel has smart ass governor on it?
Optical pad wake
Is anyone else having a problem with the optical pad wake only working once in a while? It always works if the phone is charging but if it isn't charging it's like a 30/70 chance of it working. It seems to work if you hold it down for like 5-10 seconds but that sucks.
Does anyone know how to make it so when I install this ROM all of my apps do not auto reinstall from the market...? My old wallpaper from an AOSP i had like 4 months ago still pops up as default also!
Even if I select "do not backup apps with google" it does not work. I have also tried formatting my SD card, and phone storage to no avail...
I want to install this, but everytime I have installed an AOSP ROM and then a theme, it goes haywire because there is some sort of backup file I can't find.

There's a bug report for this but no one has been able to fix it. I believe it's the trackpad sleeping when not on the charger.
Sometimes a long press and then a short one works.. sometimes it just works.. other times you have to hold it until the screen comes on..
My power button is broken so I live with the press and hold..

During the first setup, skip when it asks you to set up an account. Then run a google app like Market, GMail, etc. and sign in. Contacts will sync but applications will not.

Just to get used to the android OS dev side I am going to attempt to blend Meego/Maemo features with android. I will be using the V10k firmware as a basis.
I'm curious as to features you may wish to see in a rom. My main goals are:
Tri-screen functionality: Custom home, Apps, Running apps (Similair to Meego)
Customizable folders for the app screen
Onestop Keyboard (Swype, switch between qwerty and T9/numeric style)
3d functionality remaining
Possible Debian install
Removal of ALL spare apps. If it isn't required, it's gone.
EDIT:
Possible extra features
Option to uninstall apps from app screen via long press.
Option to hide/lock apps
EDIT (Final):
PROGRESS: Android is a surpisingly easy OS to work on and there is a LOT of devel to look at in terms of starting points for coding. I currenty have a debian distro runningwith the android OS. Apt-get works fine, however there is not enough space install any application. This Rom may either be out very soon, or depending on memory issues my be impossible without relying on an SD.
Unlocked tether and wifi hot spot
I'm most concerned with battery longevity. Don't know if you'd call that a feature, but to me it's one of the most important parts.
Wish List for new ROM on LG Thrill
I love this Thrill, for the most part, but I wish that the Phone app, where you see the
Dial, Call Log, Contact and Groups, would work same way as the Stock Android does... basicaly, take out the Groups and put Favorits.
This Group to me is very slow every time I click on it takes 5 to 10 seconds to load.. and then I have to presse the Favorits... which I use the most... so..
Yes, I have about 1700 contacts on my list, but even with just a just contacts, this buttons GROÜPs is very slow.
Also, I wish that the Flash on teh 3D camera mode would work, because right now, only in 2D mode is that the Flash works... I think it is just a setting in some internal files or on the Camera apps that blocks the Flash when in Video or still pic.
Thanks and let us know if these changes are possible or not.
Ron
WIFI Unlock and tether: I belieive its been done on other roms so it should be no problem
Battery: I will see what I can do. The ROM will just be a bare bones OS so there should be very little to eat up the battery.
Contacts to favorites and camera flsh: I'll have to look into this and let you know.

There is a reason behind the flash not working during 3D. They blocked it because the light from the flash messes with the 3D camera. Sure this could be a feature still, just saying this doesn't work for a good reason.

I was actually thinking on waiting for the Gingerbread update before starting. The update should be coming anywhere between novemeber and the end of december.
If I wait, then it will give me a bit more time to get familiar with android as an OS andcome up with various way to get the maemo/meego/android mix feel just right. Progress has been fairly fast however. I'm still having memory issues with the debian however. Also, the UI get very buggy. I might just look into utilizing some outside programs.
How would you guys feel if I outed the stock home and keyboard and replaced it with someothing like GO launcher and keyboard?
As long as the keyboard has the speak to text capability, because although mines rooted with thriller, i don't like using swype just to have that option.. it should be on the default keyboards too.

The reboot option is actually a great idea Ill look into that, I probably will not have an undervolt OR even an overclock option as Im sure it will require a custom kernel. Kernel are something I rarely play with and when I do it's only a temp thing.

Damn you, hashcode! This ROM is so incredible I don't know if I'll be able to stand going back to ICS.
The improvements are stunning, I am very impressed to see the screen rotation/screenshot bug fixed. Smooth as butter, but I wont be able to use it as a daily driver until the camera is fixed (at least in 3rd party apps).

Back in eclipse ICS for now.
I've installed it twice and it ran fine both times. That is until I rebooted. At that point it continually says com.android.phone has stopped repeatedly. Can't do anything but pull battery and switch to a different ROM.
Same issues with receiving calls.

I had this for almost 24 hours and so far I love it. Just one thing that bugs me. It's the theme of the contacts, dialer, and messaging app. Why is white? When I was playing with the demo phone at best buy them 3 apps had a nice dark theme to them. I get home root the phone set it up and go to check out the contacts list I'm like wtf is this. Why Samsung why did you change the theme on them apps at gives us the option to pick dark or light. Well let's some of your complaints. A new phone is not complete without complaints.
I love the 90s. Good times.
You can change the text messaging app theme too dark. It's in the settings within that app. It would be nice to also change the contacts app, but I don't believe you can.

See when I was at best buy yesterday playing with the demo phone. The contacts and dialer was dark. I think sprint may have changed the theme I could be wrong. I noticed when I first turned on the phone it had the Samsung default boot up animation. Than the phone did a software update than rebooted with the sprint boot up. So maybe that could of changed the them. That I don't know. But I really don't care for the light theme
I love the 90s. Good times.
I hate that text flow is missing from the browser and that the buddy pages that were part of the Note 2 are missing from the S4. It is funny how you would think some standard features would follow through to the next versions of flagship devices.
I also think there is a bug in the stock email client on how many spam mails you can flag. This is annoying as well.

Yeah I noticed that too... Lets try to keep this thread going maybe some of the developers will see these issues and address once they are ready to start cooking up some roms and mods
I'm coming from the EVO 4G running MikRom, so some of my gripes may be common differences between HTC and Samsung, or they may be things I got used to by running a custom ROM. Speaking of cutom ROMs, I know some of these issues will be resolved w/ a custom ROM.
Regardless, this is what I got so far...
- Inability to sort bookmarks by A-Z order in stock browser
- Hate that if you have the volume button programmed to take picture, there's no other way to activate the zoom function
- Not wild about how the clipboard (copy/cut/paste) menu works
- Wish I could disable the shutter sound on the camera
That's it for now...
The bottom half of my screen is pink, I will be attempting an exchange tonight
I wish the volume was a little louder. On the s3 I ran freegs3 rom by clark44 great mods especially the sound boost mod he included with aroma installer. I was spoiled by the loud speaker. Where the hell is the Galaxy suite in this phone? This phone could definitely use a mean update.
I love the 90s. Good times.

Haven't had much time to actually use the phone yet but here are two that I know of.
1. Pinch to zoom
2. If you are rooted navigate to /system/csc. Edit feature.xml. Set shuttersoundmenu to true and reboot. You will now see an option to turn it on and off from settings. You can do a lot with that file like enable camera while in a call.

I am not happy with the video playback on this phone. When the movie is dark, the screen gets pixelated and the video looks terrible. Only happens when there is a lot of black in the video.
EDIT - I have quickly found the fix to that issue. I had to go to display options on the phone and set the screen mode to Movie.
i wish they stuck with roman numerals...
Galaxy S IV > Galaxy S 4

Thanks posting this

Just 2 on my end. Other than these, I couldn't be much happier.
1: The wifi problems I'm having where it drops the connection, then re-connects every minute or two. Sometimes it doesn't actually drop it, but it won't pass data through. Does it at home and at work, so I'm fairly sure it's phone related. If it keeps up, I may be exchanging it.
2: It doesn't send my contacts to the bluetooth system in my car. This one is pretty minor, so as long as it gets fixed at some point in the future, I'll be ok with it.
Very slow download speeds from the play store almost an hour just to download a app that's only 3 mb

No 3G during call? Why?

I had that the first day I had my phone but only happened when updating one app, the rest updated fine and quickly. After a few hours went again and updated as fast as it should have first.
The svdo capability was only available in the s4 krait chip set. Snapdragon600 doesn't support 3g data while on a call. You do have svLTE, though.

That don't make any sense. Why would Samsung do that? My s3 had that feature and I loved it. What a load of bs
