Solved Problems, Workarounds and Guides
Per ohiomoto's suggestion I will maintain a list of fixes posted throughout this thread. So far,...

Going Back to Stock (thanks droidstyle): http://rootzwiki.com...-back-to-stock/
Everything about ADB (thanks Captainkrtek): http://rootzwiki.com...hing-about-adb/

So you want to flash build 3? Make sure you're already on ICS (either Team Hacksung's build 1 or 2, or alphalulz).

Netflix video playback not working? Flash ICS build 2 or later.

Constant booting to Recovery? Try unmounting and remounting /system in mounts and storage. If remounting /system doesn't work, try this:
From recovery, select "mounts and storage", select "format /boot", confirm it, then reflash your ROM (best bet is to use Build 2 here), reboot, and you should be back in ICS. (thanks remicks) NOTE: DO NOT REBOOT AFTER FORMATTING THE /BOOT PARTITION WITHOUT REINSTALLING THE ROM FIRST, OR YOUR PHONE WILL NOT BOOT!

Video codec problems? (can't play videos in a certain format like, say, DivX) Try downloading MX Player AND MX Player Codecs (ARM v6) from the Market (yes, they're separate downloads)

Gallery FC's? Try error checking your sd card on your PC (thanks SageDieu) and/or clearing Gallery by dragging app icon from the drawer to the "app info" button and clearing app data (thanks remicks)

Gmail/Calendar sync issues? Try RE-installing gapps 7.1 (ROM thread OP) If Gmail or Calendar keeps asking for permissions when you try to sync, keep granting - you may have to go through this several times before it works (thanks jt1134) If that doesn't work, you might need to format /system in Recovery (mounts and storage), reinstall ROM, reinstall gapps. This seems to have the same effect as wiping data so you'll likely be starting over.

Having problems with the Market or with gapps 7.1 other than/in addition to Gmail and Calendar? Go to recovery, go to "mounts and storage", format /system, reinstall ROM and gapps. Upon rebooting you might want to clear data for each individual app, especially if you're still having problems (thanks remicks)

Need to clear data from a single app? Long-press on app icon in app drawer, drag to "app info" on the top of the screen, and clear data from the app info dialog (thanks again remicks)

Having lots of FC's (I like to call it FC binges)[/B] Chances are your app cache is full. The simplest way to clear cache from all your apps at once is to try "Cache Cleaner NG" (yes, the "NG" one) from the Market. This is different from wiping the cache partition in recovery.

In order to be less of a n00b and be more helpful by providing logs and educating myself so I can provide helpful info I am trying to install and use ADB. I am following the instructions in the Captainkrtek thread but even after installing the SDK and rebooting my PC the ADB installer is telling me I don't have the SDK installed. Is there someone that can PM me and help me figure out why ADB won't install I don't want to clutter this thread with posts about something unrelated to ICS anymore than this one post. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

 

hey guys im thinking bout trying the new build but the last one i tried my wifi tether was borked, im currently on v3 and would like to know if the wifi tether app works now. not the built in one either, i use the one at code.google.wifitether.

 

Check the OP of this thread: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11850-romicsitl41d-teamhacksungs-ics-port-for-fascinate-build-1/

 

Edit. Thx skynet for the adb link.

Reading is fundamental for knowledge.

 

• Android OS battery usage display higher than normal.

So to be clear, this means that Android OS might say that it is using a lot of battery usage... but in reality it is NOT?

 

For those concerned about battery usage I recommend Juice Plotter, Juice Defender (both free from Market) & most of all: in Settings, Dev. Options, Background Process Limit to 4. The bp limit made a HUGE difference for me. Best battery life since PowerWashed Froyo.

Mega-Thanks to JT & devs!!!!!!!!!!

 

does this need to be done every time I reboot? The settings seem to go back to standard limit when I check it.

so is this build supposed to b a further update to jt's 1209 merge build?

edit: i did this weird thing called reading and answered my own question, to all questioning yes it is.

 

Hey everyone. If anyone has a workaround or problem related to this ROM that they feel merits it's own thread, I would be happy to catalog them in this post. This would allow that discussion to stay on topic, making it more useful and easier to manage while keeping this thread a little less cluttered and fragmented.

The way it would work is I'll subscribe to this thread. You guys start a topic for your problem or workaround and then post the link in this thread. I'll add the link to the list for others to see. This way if someone has a similar problem, they can just go to the appropriate link and make use of the knowledge already being shared and/or add to that discussion. I could even try to keep a list of "open" and "solved' threads if you guys want. I guess you would just have to post that a problem was solved.

Post 2 would be the best place for this information, but at least this spot will stay on the front page. So consider this space reserved for that purpose if you guys want to use it.

It's very important that the user reports bugs in JT's developer thread before starting something on here. If the problem gets a workaround and it's never reported to JT that would be counter productive.

Edit: Skynet11, if you up for the task and want donate post #2 of this thread feel free to take it over. If you don't want to manage this type of topic, you could always put a link point to this post with simple instructions on what it's for if you feel it would be helpful. I've used this format in the past and it's a really good way to make mega threads more manageable and useful.

Edit: Skynet11 has taken over this please help him out by using these guidelines and use the links in post #2.

This works fantastically on my Mesmerize if anyone is wondering. Data and everything.

 

Works on the mesmerize.

 

If your up for it then yeah, that would be great. If not you can just point to it. It's up to you. If you take it over and get sick of it I could always take it back in post #9 or whatever one it is. You can copy what you want from my post and then I can clean it up.

Oh and one last thing that I should have added to my post. It's very important that the user reports bugs in JT's developer thread before starting something on here. If the problem gets a workaround and it's never reported to JT that would be counter productive. I'll add it to my post and then it's up to you what you want to do with it.

 

Upon first boot (after a wipe) I'm asked to activate my phone, even though it's already activated (3g and phone already work). I ignored the request, and despite it saying it'd annoy me every boot, when I rebooted it didn't ask again.

 

sigh, why did my bug report get moved over here?

 

On the mez had to edit apns via voice dialer which is fixed and edit build.prop to get mms working. So far the rom is good, cept for what jt has reported as broke. JT your the heater.

 

Wow.. It seems that the Noobs are already making "comments" in the developer thread!

I hate to be the newber to ask this but what's the best version of CWM Recovery for flashing this sucker? There are many floating around and I believe I remember reading 2.5.x red is NOT the right one to use.

 

cwm4 if your coming from bml

 

delete

 

So to answer some of the minor questions I personally had before flashing (i came from the 1209 build with toggles and cmsettings.apk installed; I did a full data wipe and then installed the new BUILD 1):

• the GApps in JT's post (v5 by Kaik541) includes v3.3.1.1 of the Market, not the newest 3.4.4
  • Buying apps now works!!
• the Toggles.zip and CMSettings.apk are NOT necessary as they are built into BUILD 1

Also, I am having the "activate your phone" bug after doing a full wipe (seen here), but i'm trying not to clutter the dev thread. This seems to be a bug because the phone is definitely activated and hitting skip works fine.

 

Is the "Data usage" supposed to be working? I haven't seen it get talked about much and it's not in the known bugs. I know the WIFI version works, but I have never seen my Mobile data go above 0.00B used (even though I frequently use 3G). Anybody else have it working/not working?

 

Is MMS sending and recieving working for Verizon on this? It wasn't clear on the OP or the development thread.

Thanks!

 

Receiving has always worked for me. You can always just send something to yourself or someone else to test. I'll check once everything is flashed and update if no one else has.

Edit: Still no MMS it appears. It's stuck at sending. Oh well I'm sure we will see it in the future.

 

Just curious, is anyone having issues with the incoming call volume being super high by default, and having to turn it down every time?

 

That is very well known, so yes, everyone has that problem. It's an MTD problem and might not get fixed until samsung releases drivers specifically for the fascinate (if i am not mistaken).

 

mms send still does not work on the fascinate!

 

Has anyone had success with this?

Is it even worth checking out? I tried to load it and got a boot loop. Thanks!

that launcher is already included in our ics port

Did you check http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html for the latest version of the SDK?

Thank you sir, the issue was the one linked was the an older version, the newest version installed perfectly. =D

 

Noob questions!

- Upgrading from another build of ICS by teamhacksung?

• Do a Nandroid Backup!
• Install the ROM from sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
• Optionally install the Google Addon

I already have V3. When I go to cwm, I now get the v5.5.0.2 menu instead of menu version 4 as I did when I flashed V3 from stock as per droidstyle's guide. Does this matter or do I need to open odin and flash cwm again?

And the Google Addon JT mentions is the Google Apps: v5.1 he has linked? Flash that with cwm from root of SD? If true, do I reboot the ROM before or just flash it before reboot?

no need for cwm4 once your on mtd based roms...thats just for the conversion from bml to mtd. so just use the recovery that came with the rom.

 

Thanks droidstyle. Then for the Google addon just follow the rest of section 3 of your guide as if I were installing "gapps"?

 

yep...also i will update the guide with the latest build here shortly
