[Q] Spike's Pure ICS Rom Queries - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
There is a package in Spike's thread for v5.0 for the battery percentage. My question is, can that be installed on v6.1?

v6 is a different base. So maybe wait for him to come out with one for v6 first. Should be any day now.

Thanks for the answer...
btw i have a little more questions...
after using v6.1... i realise that i am no longer able to take screenshots on my sgs2. the home + power button does not seem to work. is there a different way on this rom to take screenshots? or need another app?
also is there a way to remove homescreens? by default it has 5 screens, can i disable one or more of it?
last question, how do i configure to set the USB connect on default as usb storage instead of media server?
UPDATE: seems like the battery percentage for 6.1 is released: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22790151&postcount=492

I really missed the days i can take a screenshot just with home + power buttons .Now i'm using a app to take screedshots(do a search in the market then you'll find many). Hope the CM9 team intergrate Screenshots in their work.
Are you using Trebuchet launcher ? If so you'll find the homescreed settings in Trebucher settings(press menu key in homescreen and select Trebucher settings) .
The media server is annoying to me too but now i'm trying to get used to it.Maybe you can try this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389375

thanks to your reply i now know about trebuchet. now that helps me to reduce those unused homescreens. but some of the options does not work such as Dock and Icons. Ill have to start googling about this anyways...
but yeah i hope spike will add the screenshot. i dont want an app for that. better to intergrate it with the rom i think.
SPIKE, if you see this, i sincerely thank you for this awesome ROM. you have done great. I am loving every bit of it. thank you!

Guys,
I was reading the development thread, and now there is a 6.1 version. Somebody said that he updated from ROM 2.3.6 to Pure ICS 6.0...
I would like to be sure if this can really be done without having to install stock ROM first or something like that. I have stock ROM 2.3.5 with root, and I would like to know whether I can go straight to flashing Pure ICS 6.1 with Odin or not.
I am asking cause I have seen many different comments on approaches people have followed, and I want to know whether I can do this first or not.
Thanks!

The trebuchet is far from complete and still under development(pretty stable for a alpha release ,though). You can have a try at Nova launcher and see if it fits you.

I suggest you flash a sammy leak ICS ROM first , it won't take you so much time.

There should not be any issues. I flashed straight to 6.1 from a stock official release of 2.3.6. worked fine for me. did not have issues. just make sure to follow the steps provided carefully.

I just flashed Pure Special Edition straight from one of the KI or KJs, everything works ok (Great rom btw) but I noticed the colors are slightly off. Almost like overexposure?
The color looks slightly faded and runny in and is quite obvious in videos and games. Wonder what's the issue here? should I reflash?
Cheers

Check Display - Screen Mode to see what it is set as. It is in Settings. You can make or more punchy there.

Screen Mode was set to Standard, and setting it to anything else make it look worse... However, the screen did look slightly better once I turned off auto brightness and adjusted it manually. Totally forgot that ICS had a problem with this!
However, I noticed that stuff like font edges isn't as sharp as when I was running stock. I guess I'll flash stock ICS tonight to check what the problem is...

pure ics 5.0 vs 7.1 battery life.
Hello. Why is my battery life 100% better with Pure ICS v. 5.0 than 7.1? is there a way to make 7.1 as great (im my opinion) in terms of battery life as 5.0? of course 7.1 is fully functional and I would like to keep it.
Thanks.

Transparent lockscreen
Hi all,
Does anyone know if spike is planning to get rid of the samsung lockscreen?
It would be so much nicer to have the stock transparent lockscreen as on the galaxy nexus.
Hopefully it will come round with 7.3.

For those who want to install AOSP Calendar in Spike 7.2, maybe can try flash AOSP Package for Pure ICS v7.0

ICS call screen
I wanted to know if there are plans to incorporate the in call screen from ICS into this ROM? I switched from CM9 to Pure ICS and so far it's the only thing about CM9 that I prefer.

You can ignore my above post, apparently this is a future theme change. Looking forward to when it actually gets implemented.

[ROM][XXKI4][Nov14] best ICS theme ever - DISCONTINUED

discontinued
can u make a seperate file for the dialer? that looks hella sexy.
Sure... flash this via CWM: multiupload.com/IXSELU2MEU
(should work on any XXKI4 ROM, but if you want to be save, do a backup first)
i was just looking for an ICS themed rom, with no need for further theeming, i'm very glad that i have found this
the base rom is 2.3.5 KI4? cause right now i'm on KI4, but is 2.3.4
does it have overscroll glow?
and, can u add custom percentage to battery, to display the remaing %?
cheers
Yes, it's 2.3.5 and it has the blue overscroll glow (but no bounce).
I'll have a look at the battery percentage, will add it to 1.0.
Nice! does the DIALER support MULTI DPI? i am looking for this really long time and no one seems to know how to do it...
i use 190 DPI SCREEN DENSITY
It's not explicitly multi DPI, so probably won't work. I haven't tested it though.

I love it... however it's in German lol can you give me directions to setting English as my lang?
Any ideas how it landed on German?
update-- sorted out. weird though.
anyone else experience this?
Glad you sorted it out
That's really weird, though. I will look into it, but I'm not sure I'll find out what's going on (default language for the ROM is actually en-GB).
EDIT: I can't reproduce this... it stays English after flashing... let's wait for additional feedback.

yeah mine was also in German and had to change it, and my lock screen wont work. the pattern lock, or the other locks dont work, now im not sure if that has to do with the kernel. i just have a the xxKI4 stock kernel installed.
Lockscreens work fine here. The ROM installs its own kernel. Did you install another kernel after the ROM?
What ROMs are you coming from? Mine stays English after flashing, I can't reproduce the language issue.

well i needed to get titanium backup to work so had to install an unsecure kernel to root the device, and i didnt know what kernel to use to to put back on.
---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------
is there a way to root it without installing an unsecure kernel?
I'll upload 0.9b in a few minutes, which has working root. Will be up in about an hour.
Hello,
it seems there is a little graphical bug with availlable wifi networks popup :
On my phone (SamICS 0.9), the signal strength is white on a white background so you can't see it.
Best regards.
Nice rom, I also encountered the language issue as i think when i first flashed rom it was in Danish? anyways i managed to get it into English. Apart from that everything else seems to work fine
Danish, not German? That's more likely, I had that with other ROMs, too - including Hyperdroid, which this one is based on. It's strange, since the default language is set to en-GB.
The WiFi signal is fixed (more or less) in 1.0, since the background is more grey-ish now.
EDIT: 1.0 uploading...
Is a very good rom i tested from 3day an they no bug but simply grafics problem and i think its going to be resolved to the new version
thanks good job
New ROM is up!
The theme is more refined now, but there are some Gingerbread limitations (e.g. black text on dark grey background, because making the text white would make it disappear in other apps that have white backgrounds).
It's very usable, though, and I personally love the ICS theme.
Have fun and report back how it's working for you!

Q&A..ICS Seraphim--First Flight--Troposhere!!!!!! The Collective

Since its new and will need the Dev thread for bugs and other stuff. thought i would post this.
anyone got it downloaded?
maybe post some Screens?
Sorry still kinda newbish with this question, so apologies if it doesn't make sense:
Does flashing this through CWM update the bootloader/modem that will make this not reversible to one of the GB ROMs? I've got nandroid backups of Stock(+overclock kernel), Saurom, and DAGr8's multi-dpi ICS alpha 2 leak, and I can freely restore them and go back and forth.
If I flash this new one, will that change something on the bootloader level or change my AT&T modem that will somehow mess stuff up and prevent me from switching between those other ROMs? Or will it work fine with all of that?
Thanks
You can still flash to a GB rom

this is AWESOME! Thank you Collective!!!
what is different about this rom than the base, or the alpha 2 from dagr8? I see that there's the collective tools, but what options are in there? The feature list they have on the main post is hardly descriptive of anything.

Quick question...
Getting into recovery mode... hold vol up AND down, while powering on? Cause I seem to remember trying it once, to see if it would work.. Got some green lettering (didn't read it at the time)... then I believe I just touched the home button, to bypass it... or try to bypass it. Now, I cannot get it to work.
The only thing I've done to my phone is root it, using one of the first roots available... (sorry, I forget the user... same guy who has the overclock root)
Now, I'd like to upgrade to this new ROM, and wonder if I can just upgrade it over the rooted kernal I have now....
I have tried looking around for the answer, and cannot find the exact answer.. So, I figure I'd ask, instead of just guessing...
Thanks
Joe_Breezy
is there any mod for onscreen buttons like the Galaxy Nexus?
Setting everything up now. looks good guys. seems smooth.
time to play with it and see what i find.
thanks Collective.
Coming from Saurom R7.1 GB
So far I've noticed
+Samsung splash screen is nice. Very professional touch
+overall seems smooth and fast.
+Seems very clean and ready for tweaking.
-can't change lockscreen wallpaper.
txwallpaperchooser crashes if it's used to change home or lockscreen wallpaper. And it's the only option when changing the lockscreen.
No 'gallery' Did quickpic replace this?
No splanner -guessing it's not ICS compatible
How do you change device name?
Any FAQ on the Collective Tools? Looks like some neat and dangerous stuff.
Got it flashed looks good. Just low system memory but that seems to be with all the ics Rom

Thanks, over looked that.
How do you patch is this from cwm?
Flash the zip... Its the gallery3D.apk so you could just extract it, paste it in /system/app and then reboot.
But the zip itself is flashable.
Also, op thanks for starting the thread. I slept in a bit this morning

From a powered off state, hold all 3 buttons (both volume and power) the when you feel a vibrate let off the power button keeping bug volumes held.
Now, if you have cwm installed, yes you can just wipe and flash the ROM... If you still have stock recovery you'll need to Intel cwm first.
Id beware I flashed it my speeds are now 515kbs And I had a nandroid and it won't restore the md5 sum

ROM impressions - TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION

Hi,
I wanted to express my opinion about the TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION rom.
The ROM is perfectly smooth - just works out of the box. It may appear deceptively simple, but the long update list in Development thread's OP provides a good explanation why it works so well.
If you had spent some time running Hybrid or Collective Troposphere ICS ROMs then you will be surprised to see the ATT boot animation (though I'm sure that if it's not to your liking then it can be replaced with any other animations that had been posted in different threads )
And another great thing about this ROM is the developer response time - appdroid is actively monitoring the thread and before I had time to load the stock rom there was an update for mms FC that was reported - now that's impressive.
The only issue that I had observe is phone hanging when trying to restart the phone. Happened two times but on third reboot it was ok. Didn't seem to be reported by anyone else so may be just my phone?
Oh, and if you are as adventurous as I am - don't try flashing Tablet Mode UI fix - I already did That will FC System UI and Launcher. From everything I've read in Hybrid thread I knew that this couldn't work, but just had to try (perhaps the fact that I got tablet UI working really well in Troposphere ROM contributed to the desire to make this attempt)
Edit - both of the issues listed above are gone, kind of. Did the exact same steps as earlier and this time rebooted fine without hanging. That part is for sure. As for the Tablet mod - it works fine at the DPI above 213. Again, make sure you flash TabUI_all_DPI.zip as this is the one I tested. 320 DPI is too big, but I think 240 should work fine.
Edit2 - Tablet UI works! Just not with default launcher. I was able to get 213 DPI resolution to work with Go Launcher, but Nova should also work
If you are a new user like me and cannot post in Development thread then you are welcome to add your impressions here. Other senior contributors are also welcome
I don't intent to move all of TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION-related discussion here, especially since appdroid is monitoring his thread very closely. But it's nice to finally have a voice.
I flashed tablet mode over this. The combo works perfect

That's great news. Will give it another try.
I assume that you loaded the new Tablet UI enabler zip (TabUI_all_DPI.zip) and ran it at <= 213 DPI?
Edit - did you also observe hanging on shutdown/reboot?
I ran TABLET_UI_AOSP_A2. Nothing else.

Thank you. I got it all working now, just had to load another launcher (go launcher) BEFORE loading tha tablet UI (though I used the latest multi-DPI zip) and it worked fine at 213 DPI. If you can, please post in Development thread as people are asking and I still can't post there. I will PM Jay (appdroid) too.
Love this rom. there's just something about it like. Flashed A couple of roms but always found myself nandroiding back to gb. Been on this since last night and after a full run today I like it a lot.
Only thing I changed was the launcher to apex. Just needed something that looked stock but gave me more grid space. Works great.
Swapped the mms.apk with the one from tye noteworthy thread and no more fc there.
Now I just need to get tethering working.

Thank you. And of course if you want to run at or below 213 DPI you need to replace contacts app. But then again, if you don't care about samsung dialer commands (like #*2263#) then might as well replace the whole dialer, as at that resolution some dialer buttons in stock dialer are partially cut off.

Tried both before posting - none works.
Of course your post is a clear indication that it works for you. That means it's just my system then.
I think its a fantastic ROM so far. I had a couple FC's when doing the initial contacts sync with gmail and then when trying to put weather on the lockscreen. Other than that this ROM is fantastic. I think this might be one I stick with until the second leak comes out or the official ICS push.....Thanks DEV's!!!!!!

Same here. Though I might miss some of the tools available in other ROMs
Sometimes I wish we had a sticky thread with ALL the updates available globally (i.e. rom-independent) so we could get those as needed. Just like we have for Accessories forum.

[ROM][ICS] Senseless ICS - 5/8/2012 - EVEN MOAR AOSP

First ROM for me. Spent the day half studying for a Calculus final and the other half making this.
Overall I'm very happy with it. Smooth, Stable, and ICS makes it look great.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for what happens if something goes wrong. I've tested it a lot and it should be fine.
5/6/12
Removed a lot of Sense and HTC files. Not 100% Senseless yet, but I don't really want to break anything.
Added Apex Launcher.
Added ICS Boot Animation.
Added AOSP Browser, Calculator, E-Mail, Messaging, Calendar
Added working Sprint Voicemail.
5/8/12
ICS Status Bar and ICS Settings.
MMS limit raised and defaulted to 5 MB
Some camera mods.
Added ICS Keyboard. Not default yet though.
Bugs: - I hate bugs. They'll be resolved or mitigated when my finals are over.
Can't seem to find a way to enable 4g on the ICS Notifications...
Lockscreen gets in the way of picking up calls. I consider this a bug. Not a privacy feature.
Music controls don't show up on the AOSP lockscreen. Using LeeDroid's AOSP Lockscreen fixes. Not sure if wallpaper is supposed to show up or not though.
If you find a bug then please PM me or discuss it in the thread.
Todo:
Take some fancy schmancy screenshots,
Theme framework-res.apk, Settings.apk, SystemUI.apk to AOSP ICS. # Half done.
Integrate Leedroid tweaks in a week. # Not really necessary anymore.
Apply some speed tweaks. IMO not totally important b/c there's not much speed gains to be had with much of anything besides cache size boosting or overclocking, but maybe Android has something I've never seen before in an OS.
Not sure of the stability of the file host. Will actively search for a place to mirror.

Install Instructions:
When the leak came out, I flashed Freeza's firmware. IDK what the verdict is on whether or not it's reversible or not, but I personally haven't seen any problems with reception or what not.
With that said:
1. Backup your Data with Titanium Backup or similar. I would also suggest a Nanddroid in case you want to go back.
2. Do whatever wipe style you like. I typically do a Factory Reset and then a System wipe from TWRP.
3. Flash the ics-signed.zip
----- If you want access to 4g or like the Sense status bar or the Sense Settings, do not continue. -----
4. Load the ROM. I haven't been able to avoid the step for whatever reason. Most likely my lack of skill with update-script.
5. Go back into recovery and install the ICS Notifications.

It does not. MMS completely works from the stock app though and you can just disable the notifications from the AOSP one or remove the App with Titanium Backup or not.
I was debating putting it in there, but I figured that I liked how it looked so I might as well.

If its FC'ing and the Sense one works, then the aosp mms should probably just ve left out... I know I'll be removing it since its not needed. ROM sounds awesome overall, can't wait to give it a spin.

It only FC'es on MMS. I personally never get MMS. People email me their pictures lol and I also dislike the way the stock messaging app looks. That's why it's in there.
Disregard post if previously read...found what i needed.. my bad..
Love seeing new guys jump into the ROM game. Welcome!

Thanks LS, I hope to be pretty productive.
Loaded the rom...everything seemed to work great except for mms...I did try to use both messengers and both failed to work for me....any ideas on what i may have done wrong?
Hmm mms seems to work for me from the stock app.
I'll make an update later and we'll see what happens.

Cool... appreciate it...
Idk if anyone remembers empiires suprarom but after reading the description in the op for some reason it reminded me of that, using a sense base getting as close to aosp as possible with losing that sense functionality. Any chance this'll be laid out in a similar manner?

Yeah, that's the kind of style I'm going for. I'm going to try to get as close to AOSP as possible until CM9 hits.
I'm hoping this has working camera and all also? I've been waiting for a ROM like this.

Yes, working 3d and 2d.
Had to move the ROM to my server and it's not spectacular so if anyone could mirror it it'd be great. Since Megaupload got taken down I haven't found a good file host that allows > 300 MB.
I'm working on pulling this damn update together with what I want it to have which should theme it to almost full ICS. But the zip just isn't agreeing with me.
You thinking a builds later tonight or tomorrow?

Hi Coldflid, you come so late on S2. I'm a big fan of u since S1. Hope you sticky on rom kitchen of S2 so on.
Thank you!!!
Always nice to see a new ROM, but the download from Rapidshare will take
more than two hours!
Maybe you should upload it to another server......

No i once made one GB rom but it wasnt really popular, hardly anyone used it. And i also made a ics beta rom (with the ics leaks) but i stopped development for it because i didn't really like the leaks i preferred waiting for the official release.

I've been waiting for your rom here in S2. I've flashed your S1 ROMs. I'm a big fan. Downloading right now. You cook odex roms before right? This is deodexed. Anyway, I still like this.
No sms in call log in the changelog. Did you implement this?
About the AOSP Apps, do I have to remove the included apps before flashing this file?
Will this work on GT-19100G ???

I thought so I used your ics beta ROM that was the best.
I've been looking for a rom that gives back the bounce effect in menus and browser, instead of glow effect. Is it possible?
here is google drive download.

Thanks a lot for your comment!! As i said before i really like comments like this haha Yes i used to cook odex roms and maybe later on with a new base i'll make it odex but for now i'll keep it deodex
The AOSP APPS zip removes apps such as samsungs clock and others and installs the aosp one if thats what you mean, you dont need to remove anything

i doubt it, i dont know much about the differences between the i9100 and i9100g but i think that they cant use the same roms (although i might be wrong). However if there is a LPG rom for i9100g then i guess you could install this rom and then flash the i9100G's LPG kernel and it should work. Same with modem. But still i cant assure it'll work, i wouldnt risk it

Sorry if the download is slow But i don't know why it's slow in dropbox, dropbox is usually fast :S
Not sure if i need to re-install but i don't appear to have a text message app at all and have a gap on the bottom main homescreen (not sure if this is where its supposed to be)...
All good other than that though so far...
