Hi,
I'm fairly new to ICS ROMS and having tried THS ROM and now AOKP, I think that AOKP is much faster and smoother but i have 1 issue with the stock browser(same with other browsers but i prefer stock).
I use a very popular messaging board, similar set up to this in Ireland and would look in a lot of different threads frequently. When using ANY other stock browser on any other ROM it saved the position in the thread so that when you go back to the thread it picks up from where you last were. For some reason this isn't happening on this ROM and i don't know how to go about fixing it. Re-flashing made no difference.
Otherwise a brilliant ROM and 1 i really want to stay on.
Any advice appreciated.
I've been using the Chrome Beta and it's been wonderful.
Not a direct solution, of course, but might solve your issue.
Yeah, hearing good things about chrome. I'll try it tonight as it isn't showing in the market(don't know what google are playing at restricting it's release). I'll get the apk elsewhere.
I'm pretty sure it won't solve my problem but no harm trying.
Hum, from my newbie point of view, that doesn't seem to be a ROM-related problem, but something about browser's cache or cookies... have you had a look to some of its config?
BTW, I didn't hear about Chrome, I'll try it too!
Chrome is force closes on AOKP for me
But i tried it an some other ics rom and its great !!

Dunno if this will fix your issue. But I find the 4.0.4 browser a bit faster.

Thanks for the suggestions lads, much appreciated.
I tried chrome last night, no force closes, doesn't really offer me anything that stock browser doesn't do and sadly doesn't help my issue.
I'll try that browser version tonight trailblazer.
hadkeren, thanks for your suggestion and forgive my ignorance but i don't see the option to clear data in all apps in one go. To do so individually would be painful
It's good to know(i think) that this isn't an issue with everyone(or anyone else) on this ROM but i just find it weird that i didn't have this issue on THS Rom or any gingerbread or froyo rom.
Another issue i have with ICS is no notification vibration but i've given up on that one
I mean clear your data for the browser
It is in:
settings - apps - all

Sorry, i'll put that down to a combination of a loss of oxygen to the brain and work.
It made no difference, cleared cache,history and cookies earlier and cleared data just there
I'll try 4.0.4 browser tonight but i don't hold out much hope. I'll probably try another flash. I won't let this beat me.

Tried this(had to remove link) and yes very fast and smooth but didn't sort my issue. Flashed up to 2.1 beta in the hope it might sort it. NO!
If it wasn't such a great ROM i'd have switched a while ago as this seems like such a trivial issue that should be solved easily
I suppose i could learn to live with it(but i doubt it).
Next stop ICS Slim but i would love a solution before i take such drastic action.
Thanks All.

I can't seem to find a thread detailing how to do this..
Doesn't it just come with the tiny gapps that you're supposed to flash alongside cm?
Or is there a newer market that I am unaware about?
The one that comes with cm7 rc1 nightly 3 is 2.2.11
It happens by itself.
Since installing cm7 the normal marketplace doesn't work

This.
There seem to be a lot of small screwy things related to the google applications on Gingerbread-based ROMs. Best shot for getting everything working correctly is to do a full wipe and reflash. I know I had to do that to get GTalk working.
What about the not so easy answer?

Let me know if you figure one out. I spent about two weeks trying all sorts of off-the-wall stuff to get around having to wipe to get GTalk to work. As soon as I wiped (as I should have in the first place) it worked without a hitch.
It should auto update, at least for me it did.
If not go here

I flashed CM7 RC1 and I automatically got updated to 2.3.2.
Just give it time. It'll happen. Market updates by itself without user intervention.

Have you tried clearing the Market app's cache and data?
Clear Market data in "system / applications / manage".
[edit] I see codesplice already gave you the correct answer
No joy. I'll go for the wipe later on

I think the secret is flash. I may be wrong but on 2.1 you did not have it. On 2.2 you do. Set plug ins to on demand in browser settings. Should fix

How is it when scrolling? Smooth?, choppy? What about the pinch to zoom?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I have run a few roms...cognition, andromeda and now cm7 gingerbread but the browser lag does not seem to go away. This site on eclair used to have very smooth scrolling. I did a google search and have found a few people with the same problem. I have tried different browsers and opera mobile seems to be the smoothest but has a few noticable problems when opening a few pages. Some say that the froyo browser likes to keep your last page in memory at all times so when you hit "back", it is seamless, but im not sure if this is true. Any suggestions or explanations would be greatly appreciated, thanks for the feedback.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Honestly I am not sure what the issue is. First if you have not tried please change your plug in settings to on demand in your browser. That its the only thing imaginable that could be causing an issue. The browser in eclair sucks in comparison to 2.2 and 2.3 it is not even close
Secondly, stock is always an option
4 different people were nice enough to click the link, no one reported any issues.
CM7
Thanks for the feedback
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I flashed back to Eclair, all of the laggy scrolling is gone and the phone actually feels more snappy. I know it sounds crazy but it is true, I'm going to update to Froyo and test the browser one more time If it is still laggy I think Eclair is for me for the time being. Such a shame that something that is improving something can wreck it, oh well.
I followed the instructions in the first post in the guide on this forum for unlocking the phone for use on at$t. Have my staright talk sim and changed my apn, all data works fine when using any of the apps ike the facebook app or youtube or downloading apps from play but when i open the browser it immediately force closes. Was kind of annoyed but just thought i would download and try a different browser, that was a no go and 3 browsers later i still cant get any of them to work. Dolphin hd will open but when you put in a web address it fc. Any idea what i might have broken that all these browsers seem dependent on? Btw running a stock rom, havent gotten brave enough yet to try flashing custom roms. This was my first attempt at altering an android device so I'm trying to take it slow and earn everything i can to avoid becoming a bricklayer. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. If i have to i will take it back to factory and try again but thought i would give the experts a chance at educating the noob.

rom links dead
I fixed the links. All links for the ROM and Gapps are posted on the Downloads page of my site from now on. Just follow the link.
I just switched back to Hanger's ROM from CM9 and I must say, even though it doesn't get as high of benchmarks, it feels a whole lot snappier and there seems to be 0 lag in his ROM. Very pleased and will probably use it as a daily driver now. Thanks a bunch for your hard work. Hope everything in your family is OK now.

I've learned after years of computer use and building and repairing them that benchmarks don't always mean anything. Benchmarks rarely test the average performance that a user will experience.

I just went to ad fly homepage and manually entered the download code or whatever to the end of the URL. Worked for me.
Rom ui looks awesome. Running smooth so far. Little bit of keyboard lag but that's par for the course with ics from my experience. Can tell you put a lot of time into this.

OK its been a few hours now and the keyboard lag is getting really bad in some instances. Also, in the messaging app, hitting the button to start a new convo just crashes back to the home screen. That's all I've really noticed so far.

Hanger doesn't check this thread regularly; if you have a "bug," see OP and report it in the bug tracker so it can be addressed in the next update.
Are you guys using the stock keyboard? Give swiftkey beta 3 a shot or the new JB one

Did you make sure and do a full wipe first? You didn't by chance restore data with TBU did you?
I've been running this ROM for weeks and I don't have either bug on my install.
Sent from my EPAD using XDA Premium HD app
Love the ROM but have some lag...
I'm having lag to the point of frozen. I've had to pull the battery about 4 times in the last 3 days. It's not related to USB issues since I'm not plugged in when it happens. The apps (not any in particular) seem to overload the phone's ability to process. If I'm lucking it reboots - otherwise it's a battery pull.
I did restore data using TBU and I'm using the "lazy" kernel configuration.
Other than that I really love this ROM. Seriously. It has every buzzer and whistle I could hope for and they all work.

Yeah when i was testing for Hanger and i ran in to similar probs in the alpha builds don't restore data via tbu. the problems for me went away when i didn't. Also double check your cwm version, make sure it's the newest for the inc.

Hi all,
My first post, and as of yesterday my first custom ROM. Despite some sweaty moments it worked fine thanks to the guidance on this forum and some leaps of faith Can't reply to the relevant thread directly since I'm n00b.
Was very happy with this, however one killer issue that's meant I've had to revert to stock is that Google Talk (installed via GApps link with the ROM) crashes to desktop (no FC dialog) when i attempt to use voice or video within it. Skype seems to work fine though. Anyone else experienced this? I haven't seen it previously reported on here which makes me think maybe I didn't clear something properly (I used cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 to wipe cache, factory reset and clear dalvik prior to flash). I tried repeating the entire upgrade twice from scratch but same issue is still apparent.
Thanks for the coolness and hopeful for some help and further development.

Hey.
You're not the only one. I have the same issue with Google Talk. I, like you, thought that I wasn't installing something right. I even went as far as using an outdated gapps package, namely 20120726, to no avail. If you've gotten help with this, please let me know. Otherwise, I have no idea what else to do. I don't want to revert to stock because, quite frankly, its terrible. Also, to anyone else reading this, any help would be appreciated.
Try uninstalling talk after you've flashed the Rom and then reinstalling it. Had a similar problem with Google search.

I just checked the tablet and i dont see an option for uninstalling the app. just force close and disable. I also checked the play store to try and download the app, but i dont see it in there. maybe i'm missing something? like i said before, any help would be appreciated.
I'm not familiar with Google talk, is it the same as voice. To uninstall you'll need tibu or something like that.
I did find talk to chat in the play store which maybe the same thing you're talking about

Hey, I just want to thank you for your response. Its been a big help. Unfortunately, google talk isn't the same as voice. Its the chat client that is found in gmail and stuff. They just have a separate app for it on android devices. I think i may just use skype to video chat since i can't seem to find a fix for this and I can't bring myself to go back to the stock rom. If anyone happens to find a fix or knows of one, please let us know. Thanks.

My first ROM as well and facing the same problem with GTalk. Skype & Hangout on Google+ works fine. I was also wondering probably i missed a step.
But this ROM is so awesome don't want to restore. Other problems I am facing is that USB is not getting recognized on tablet and 3G not working. Any of you facing similar problem with 3G and USB?

As far as 3G, my tablet is the WiFi only, so I can't help you there.
With the usb, have you tried turning on the MTP setting? When you connect the tablet, go to settings>storage> and in the upper right hand side of the screen, if you press on the 3 dot things, you are going to see USB computer connection. press that and you will see the option to turn on MTP. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the replies, glad to know I'm not alone with g talk. Finally got stock ics ota but it's terrible! Prime example is Swype keyboard often appears the size of a credit card. Going back to cm as soon as talk fixed also had the USB issue but didn't try the workaround
