Hello,
I'm running Jelly Beans build 11 with the regular beans kernel. For a new user to ROMS, I am very impressed with the built in mods. So far I have found these mods very useful: dropbox mod, google play fix, native hotspot fix, multi-window support for all apps, customizable toggles on status bar, nova launcher, and built-in call/sms blocker.
My main issue with this ROM is when I hold down the home button to access my latest applications. I am able to scroll through my most recently used applications. But, when I select an app my phone freezes and then I get the message "Unfortunately, system UI has stopped". I tried looking around in system settings for an alternative app switcher and was not able to figure it out. Is anyone else having this problem? :crying:
I had this problem on build 9 when using Sense recents. I reflasfed the rom and went back to using stock recents and everything worked.
All right!
I just reflashed JB b11. The first setting in the jelly beans installation is "recent apps". Hahaha! I picked stock for recent apps instead of Sense for recent apps like you said. Now the recent app selector is stable. It's too bad the Sense recent app selector doesn't work. I think the horizontal scroll is nicer than the vertical scroll. But, stable is better than unstable.Thanks for the quick reply!

Yeah this is a problem with the sense recents. You can also try fixing permissions if you want to use the sense recents.

I'm running an ICS leaked build on my SGS2 - LP6. I've had two screen freezes (nova) so am going back to touchwiz for a while.
Of course by default touchwiz doesn't sort the apps drawer in grid view. By deleting data it's pseudo sorted. For now. So pre-installed apps are first in order, then user installed, in order
Has anyone co-erced AppZorter to work? Or know how to manipulate touchwiz through APIs or database updates to switch things into order?
I've emailed the AppZorter developer but I'm sure it's too early.
It's the one feature of touchwiz that IMO is a serious omission - otherwise I like it.
in TW4.5 you have alphabetical order of icons but i am not sure that it will work on ICS ROM............on GB it is fantastic.......
appz sorter light works but you have to reboot.. it doesnt restart touchwiz.. or if you have home switcher and temporarily switch to a different shell and run it and then switch back it is done immediately.

No just force stop the tw launcher after sort.

I am on the latest ICS leak and I can't get AppZorter to install, for the obvious reason that it's for older versions. There has to be some other way instead of slowly tapping, dragging and dropping
Im really liking the rom but i have a couple of problems:
1)The messaging app notifications dont work for some reason. I do not get a little icon on the messaging icon, or a notification in the status bar, nor do i get a vibration or ringtone. I have made sure the notification is checked in settings.
2)Not really a problem but im assuming this rom doesnt support bln..?
3)I know this has been asked many times but screen size for launchers. Im using apex launchers and currently i cannot put any widgets. I have heard different replys and dont know what i should do. I havent messed with my dpi. Should i change dpi, or what should i change grid size to?
4)S-pen optimized apps are not compatible? I dont understand why apps specifically made to be used with the s pen would not be compatible with the note. For example in samsung apps i look at the spen apps and they dont work. Click on omni sketch or zen brush and it says incompatible?
Thanks!
Apex
I use Chomp SMS but i was getting notifications up top of messages through the default messaging app with no problem, just not badges, which I have grown to dislike coming from iOS.
Apex works just fine for me, how are you adding widgets? through a long press on on the desktop of through widgets in the app drawer? Widgets from the app drawer require APEX to be a system/app not a data/app. I also have Apex set to 7x7 and worked previously on 5x6 as well.
As for S-Pen apps I would imagine its because they haven't been released with ICS Support since this is an ahead of schedule leak, I'm not entirely sure.
i don't think bln has support on this rom yet but I'm not entirely sure.
I got my notification working now. And yeah I'm trying to add widgets through the app drawer. What do you mean apex launcher has to be a system app? How would I go about doing that? Also what grid size do you recommend? Ah I guess I can understand why the spend apps do not work well hopefully somebody can fix it soon. Yeah I'm pretty sure you need a kernel for bln which I don't think we'll get until the actual ics release.

Apexlauncher.apk has to be moved with root explorer or es file explorer in a rw state, the apk has to be moved to the system/app folder and reboot. Im using 7 tall x 6 wide grid and really liking it, and yes unless da_g uses the kernel in the leak to rework a custom kernel and add bln, we'll have to wait til the official kernel and ics is out and Im sure he'll use that to make us an overclocking kernel with bln support.

Go into the settings menu in play store app. There is an option to automatically add what you download to your home screen, just un-tick it.
I am running cool ICS Rom v6 So have ICS and sense 3.6
the frequent apps tab of the application drawer doesn't seem to work consistently, very rarely can I click on an app and have it open. I can move over to the other tabs and click to open there, and i can scroll in any tab, but tapping an app will neither highlight nor open it. Occasionally I can open one, the first time I try in a while, but subsequent attempts fail.
anyone have any clue what is causing this or how to fix it?
thanks much
Was wondering if this is even remotely possibly, or if it's already been done. I love almost all of sense's features like the camera, dialer, sms, etc....but i HATE the app drawer, lockscreen, and multitask screen. are there any roms, or is it possible to modify a rom, to have the features i mentioned de-sensed running vanilla instead of sense? thanks for taking the time to read this

viper has an option for aosp lock screen and recents, and if you use a third party launcher you can get an aosp lock drawer. Also nos's sense 5 ROM has a flashable aosp recents.
You can also get the aosp lock screen on any ROM by deleting htclockscreen.apk in /system/app

Check in the app/mod request section. The AOSP recent apps mod is there. ViperDNA has all the modifications you mentioned baked into it. Also, you can use Nova Launcher from the Play Store on any ROM, regardless of root. This will fix your app drawer problem. Below is the link to Nova Launcher.

Hi,
I use latest Nova launcher (Premium) and CM11 (nightly). But the same happened with CM10 stable and nightlies.
When I install new app - shortcut doesn't appear on my homescreen. I remember long time ago (I think that was in ICS stock launcher) - shortcuts would appear. But not anymore.
Automatically add widgets checkbox is checked in the Play Store Settings.
I even reinstalled fully Nova. No success.
Any ideas how to fix that?
Anyone?
Nova settings
New apps
Check the box
I believe its off by default now as many may not like apps just showing up
