Installed the ICS update via kies a few hours ago (I actually held out on stock GB for nearly 6 months!)
Everything seems ok apart from a few icons missing and extreme amount of lag over GB. First I thought it probably needs a restart but nothing changed. I then tried touchwiz and SPB shell and they didn't have any lag and all the icons were showing up.
So I am assuming Go Launcher EX is not compatible at the moment - real shame.
Go to Andorid Games and Apps forum, find v3 Beta4 and try.
GoLauncherEx working fine for me...

I'll try it but I already have v3 from the market (updated today) so it might be a problem on my note.
Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A section
Working fine for me too. I restored using Titanium rather than installing from the Market if that makes any difference.
I had major lag issues with this after the ICS upgrade. I ended up going into Applications pressing Force Stop then Clear Data and finally uninstalling it. Once I had done that I re-downloaded the app from Go's own website. It's running just fine now.
It originally came from a backup created by Appsaver so I have no idea why it would lag like that. All I know is, I'm glad it's sorted.

Hi guys,
I've just installed Darky's 9.5 Extreme (Dark core kernel, no lag fix). I have some question (if you have time and you are in the mood to answer maybe silly questions ):
- the phone doesn't seem to be faster than with 2.2.1 (JPY) previously installed. I have 170+ apps installed
- I've installed the ROM using CWM. As I understood initially it wiped all existing system data, except for installed applications.
- the phone lags sometime. Shouldn't this be the fastest rom ever?
- when I have the browser open and browse 10 minutes the home launcher restarts (Zeam, Xperia Arc, GO Launcher EX, TWLauncher).
- I cannot select text anymore in the browser
- the touchscreen responsiveness seems to be degraded. And mostly it impacts the browser.
Should I do something more to get a smoother experience? Your answers will be much appreciated
I installed the v9.5 and according to me it is no where near as stable or as smooth as the v8.0...
I went back to 8.0 in half a day..
I would suggest you try that too if you don't have the need to be on the latest rom..
About the issues you pointed out I can add to that lost of bugs and issues but it is what it is..
It's not the device but the rom..
Have only ever flashed darky's rom so all I can say is v8.0 is the best for stable no nonsense usage..
If there is anything specific you would like to ask please do so..

That's nonsense!
Just messing with you JJE
If I wan't to make a clean install of 9.5 what should I do? Go into Darky's Rom Configurator and select Wipe the device? Is this enough? And after that reapply the ROM using CWM?
I think you are supposed to update your PDA to XWJS8 as well
Worked for me,
Good luck,
Nitro
What i was trying to put across was that for some reason the majority of problems on this forum are headed Darky rom lesson in itself i would have thought .
Nothing against the guy but help for his users does not seem to exist within his own pages .
Why so many post with problems i dont know but their is a user choice try another developers rom .

Hi guys,
I just installed the video editor from Samsung Apps, Im running the sweet honey rom (JVB 2.3.3)
For some reason the app keeps force closing on me and I get the following error.
Anyone know what might be the issue? Have wiped Dalvik and Cache but made no difference.
Thanks
Not sure if this is a general issue or a rom specific issue so posted here.
I can answer both:
The program has all sorts of bugs and is only working properly on the galaxy tab.
I've tried it on froyo stock doc deodexed, Jvk, doc jvk deodrxed, and finally simply honey rc3 same rom as you. Never worked for me
Is there any decent alternative on the android market?
There was a time when i could only find vidéo editor for...vidéo editing.It seem other software has come out now.
Worked fine for me on froyo but never since 2.3
(FC) and i'ts sure we're not the only ones.Not so amazing that certain apps ain't yet working well on ginger.
Hi can you please tell me what other software has come out for it?
Thanks
Never tried other ones yet but i've seen much more apps than before the last time i've checked the market a few weeks ago.Sorry.
Edit:Vidtrim for example.
Ps: personally,i love clayframes for doing stop-motion video.
TouchwizGTG APP Thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822523
Anyone tried to install this on top of ROM Continuum 5.5?
Actually, we were all waiting on you to do it and report back to us in this here thread you started.
I do not have Root Explorer so I was using DriodExplorer while in CWM3 boot mode by enabling/disabling the directories. DroidExplorer unfortunately crashes when attempting to install or uninstall any applications to the phone.
Manually copying the files as recommended in the Touchwiz thread proved fruitless, as I could not get TW3 to load properly. Would crash shortly after selecting it.
It was getting late so I reverted back to the original Touchwiz file and went to bed.
I'm having absolutely no issues with this version of TW on Continuum 5.5. The only caveat is that there's no landscape mode, but I find that may even be preferable. Everything else is functional, with no lag or processor "burns".
I apologize to whoever created it - I can't remember which thread I picked it up from. But it seems to be perfectly functional on my captivate.

That's TW4, I think they want TW3 with GTG fixes
I found this in the i9000 forums. I have it on my phone and it works great.

honeycomb felt sooo slow and annoying ... so ... root, flash ics 4.0.4, all snappy and i'm happy.
now, i backed up with TB some of the apps i actually wanted from the stock rom ... but ... whenever i try to restore them on ics ... TB will just hang (says restoring, and waits ... and waits ... and waits ... and nothing happens ... )
some other thread says not to try to restore system apps, but i never had this problem with my galaxy s2 ...
any ideas / comments / suggestions?

You should never restore system apps from another "style" (HC --> ICS) of Rom.
This will always lead to problems, whichever device you're on.

hmmm ... cheers ...
seems like there's not much i can do then i guess ...
will have to either find the equivalent versions on ICS, or hope samsung will get our ICS out for us ...
Indeed you won't be able to restore some apps, like polaris office for example, when you update to ICS. However if we eventually get the ICS update from samsung, it seems very likely that any app from the stock ICS ROM will be usable with AOKP.

hmmm ...well ... threads are suggesting we are going to get an update ...
shame i had to deal with kies ... darn buggy software ... samsung should be ashamed ...
anyways, reverted back to my 3.1 HC, upgraded via kies (after an hour of grief to get it running) to 3.2. still not as snappy as ICS, but, i'll hand it to samsung, the gui seems much cleaner, and the default music app is worth it. it's not as amazing as sony's default one, but it's the best music player i've come across so far (and i've tested A LOT ... )
back to waiting i guess
generally you will not be able to use any Sammy apps with aokp in my experience

Boyfriend (more technically apt than I, however, currently unavailable) helped me root and install a new rom on this POS and am still having issues (running [ROM][JB][4.1.2]Slimbean 3.1.0 Unofficial Galaxy Exhibit 4G by camcory)
Issues I have are as follows:
- Constantly having to use a task manager to kill apps that constantly start and restart so nearly all my memory is being used and phone is laggy as all get out. (Consequently, anytime I try to open an app, it takes AGES before it starts..including my contacts or msging...any app in general)
- Randomly (and sadly, not consistently) when I plug in headphones, music player starts on its own. Have to kill multiple times as every time I kill it it starts again until I reboot phone out of frustration. Only solution at moment was to delete all mp3s I had on my phone and remove music player (which sucks, cause I would like to be able to listen to my music on my phone...).
- When I use Pandora, Google voice search starts on it's own. I have to kill it multiple times as it keeps restarting, before I have to reboot phone out of frustration and that tends to take care of the problem..again, temporary (and annoying) solution.
- Curious, when I bought phone, it was partitioned (or so it appeared) so there was USB storage, SD storage, and then external SD. Even after installing new ROM, a lot of files that were on the phones internal SD storage remained, wondering if there's a way to wipe that so there's not duplicate files laying around, or files that are no longer necessary as they were part of the original phone's system, or if these are files that should remain on the phone for some purpose.
Also, in general, not terribly pleased with the look of this ROM. I really enjoyed the look and some of the default apps that came on the phone (the msging and contacts especially) when I bought it. Any recommendations as to possible ROMs that would be similar to the stock, yet not as craptastic, would be much appreciated.
Any and all help is much appreciated!
ITry Linero either version with formula84 gapps and either PoweredbyEvil v1 or DemonsBlood v8 over clocked max 1612 smoothass gov SIO io and set oom and minfree to strict in ROM toolbox. Use pimp my ROM for additional tweaks such as entropy sdcard tweaks all and carefully read memory tweaks
This benches and runs smooth with zero lag for me.
No problems with music or headsets. I deleted Apollo with ROM toolbox and installed fusion.
Memory is 168 free on average without using task manager due to tweaks in pimp my ROM and ROM toolbox.
I don't use Pandora but have yet to have Google now open when opening other apps
If inserted sdcard then you have the proper storage. The partition is for boot and internal then sdcard is external
Note that I use swapsd included in linero so my internal is really now external as most all goes by default to internal when installed so with a 32gig card I don't worry
When flashing ROM wipe cache + dalvik cache + system + factory reset + internal storage and I also wipe android secure. Be sure files you want saved is on sdcard along with ROM + gapps to be flashed.

Finally having a moment to look over everything and give it a shot today. Fingers crossed I don't brick it
Do you have any recommendations for launchers/themes? I was really keen with the look of the stock theme that came on the phone. The hololauncher that came with slimbean and the default theme I was not terribly keen with.
Thanks again for your help. I will let you know how it all pans out!
I personally use jellybean extreme cm10 and love it. Have tried many but always go back. I use the blue one as it is near black and updates is often and very well supported. It is a paid theme but worth it imo

So I've done all as you said except for the pimp my rom just yet (battery started dying and I couldn't bother to be tethered to the charger while I worked ). As it is, it seems a bit faster, and I've yet to run into the bugs that I had previously (but that's always how it is in the honeymoon stage). Am trying to stay optimistic.
I am dying for the old messaging, contact list, and alarm clock that stock had, but cest la vie I spose. I'll have to nose around in the future and see what's out there.
Thanks for all your help
So I installed and all seemed to be going well and then I started getting crashes and lockups. So I reverted back to Slimbean that I was running previously. Now most of the apps I had before (even on Slimbean) will not work; "aren't compatible."
I can't for the life of me remember how we bipassed this last time I dropped that ROM on here. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Do a factory reset 2 times , wipe ROM 2x and wipe internal SD 2x then flash the ROM again. I recommend causing team win recovery made for our galaxy exhibit. Since of what I read you want jelly bean but a stock feeling I recommend you using remics jbjob rom

You need to change your dpi to 240 and reboot. Then clear cache on Play Store and reboot again. It might take a few app cache wipe/ reboots before your apps come back.
