Did you restore system data? If yes, that is why you are getting so many fc's. You should only be restoring apps and their data.

5.1 had too many issues - blank screen on call, lots of FCs, titanium backup issues, kept resetting.
4.1 only has problems with GPS

I have never gotten TI Backup to work on any ICS builds. I use CWM Backup now as it works better with ICS

I didn't restore system data, only app and app data.
Each time I changed from whether 4.1, 5.0 or 5.1 I couldn't successfully complete titanium restore. Had to restore bit by bit and, if lucky, after a few crashes and f.c's would restore.

Restored via my backup which worked much better.

Would cwm be better for backups/restoring?? Never used it for that.

Kuragari · February 5th, 2012, 06:15 PM

Unless I'm mistaken, CWM backup would make a backup of your entire ROM and settings and data and such. So if you restored from there after upgrading, you'd effectively be reverting to your previous ROM rather than restoring just your apps.

Kie · February 5th, 2012, 07:00 PM

Alright I finally got v5.1 installed last night.

Verdict:

So far it's been very stable! I had one issue with Titanium where it wouldn't restore a particular app, so I unticked that app and restored the rest just fine. I hope everyone did a fullwipe before installing v5.1, it's very much recommended. I restored all my sms' perfect as well. Not sure where all these issues are coming from.

The issue with restoring one app at a time sounds like you haven't installed the licence key from the market. I'm not sure where you guys are finding FCs but I haven't come across anything just yet (I'll keep updating the first post though).

In summary, I'm sticking with v5.1 for now. The battery seems a lot better than v4.1 and it's overall more stable. Also, there's a few new nifty ICS features in LPB like swiping contacts to call/message

Edit: I've also updated the OP with new info and pictures for v5.1!

The fc's I found, after 1st flash, were like the 1st time I went into an app it crashed but then was ok-ish after.

I had issues with titanium each time and in end used my backup - but even that I had to do in 2/3 stages.
I did full wipe but was not stable. I re wiped and re installed and is much better now- impressed so far.

Screenshot doesn't work I've noticed and my 'sound/vibrate' and data icons in notification bar occasionally 'jump' side to side!!
Have u found this?

Have u altered anything for battery as I think it's worse than 4.1 - its still good though!

Thanks for the error log I'll add it to the OP.

Yeah i also have the screenshot issue and the moving icons at the top. Those are more issues with stock LPB than specific to AndyX.

suparuss · February 7th, 2012, 07:09 AM

I've just reverted back to 4.1 - I noticed my carrier signal quality deteriorating to the point of only being able to make emergency calls.

Reverting back to 4.1 fixed it

Kie · February 7th, 2012, 07:51 AM

Haven't had that issue either! My phone must be made for this rom!

No problems here either running 5.1

ooberandy · February 7th, 2012, 08:55 AM

How does the camera work with this rom? Does the instant capture work?

lavellep · February 8th, 2012, 05:57 AM

Ok, I know I'm going to sound like a right numpty here but I just can't get TB to work here restoring all my stuff.

So I tried to install all including system data because I stupidly didn't read the instructions. I'm a goon, I know. So I went back to scratch.. wiped everything several times over and reinstalled then tried to do it all without system data. didn't work.
Tried doing it all again and again. Seriously, I wiped it and reinstalled it that many times, I was getting fed up of seeing the ROM intro screen. And still, it just kept hanging when reinstalling my apps.
I gave up in the end. Was I doing something obviously wrong?

On TB there's several app restore options. The one you should be doing is: "Restore missing apps with data". If you do "Restore all apps with data" then you will restore older and incompatible system apps and that will mess you up big time!

Also, I haven't updated in a while, but this rom is absolutely amazing

Here's my current battery stats:

vince1 · February 9th, 2012, 05:52 AM

Think ill go back to 3.1 as for the second night i woke up to a dead phone. Had about 80% when I went to bed and was dead when I woke up.Ill post a screen shot of the stat in a bit.

Battery stats are gone, dam. Had a small look earlier and could not see what was the cause, battery just fell off a cliff.

Mines pretty good but don't think quite that good!!

I'm still getting occasional fc's and have you been able to move to SD??

The only thing I did was reduce voltage max to 800mV (using Voltage Control).

Also I'd be lying if I said I'd had no FCs. CWM is the main culprit for me.

Kie · February 9th, 2012, 10:13 PM

Update 1 is now available for v5.1!

Changelog (added to OP):

- Fixed sound notifications in Gmail app
- Fixed DSP Manager.apk
- Added Maps.apk (last version)
- Added ICS Clock.apk
- Added Samsung TTS.apk
- Fixed shutdown (shutdown options) Restart works!
- Added Flash Player.apk (last version)
- New camera app improvements and themed style with ICS
- New script EFSBackup
- Arrangements in the Framework, System.UI and Settings

Install via CWM. Wipe Dalvik Cache beforehand.

Edit: I won't get around to trying it for a bit since it's my Bachelor Party weekend from tonight through to Sunday (getting married next Sunday!). Let me know if the Restart actually works

Thanks my good mate! Looking forward to dragging the stone of shame for years to come!

Only option I have in voltage control is processor between 200 & 1200? My voltage options have disappeared!

Have u moved any apps, to SD?
I get 'couldn't move app' when I try and it also stops quite few apps from updating via market for some reason.

vince1 · February 10th, 2012, 07:25 AM

Congrats Kie, best wishes and all that

ZR160_MAJ · February 10th, 2012, 08:46 AM

Congrats Kie, for the love of Android....PLEEEEAAAASSSEE buy and android wedding cake flol. Make sure nobody ties you up to a lamp post and watch hangover 1 & 2 lol

Kie · February 12th, 2012, 08:03 PM

Thanks gents. 6 days to go! Still feeling the effects of an epic weekend.

I won't bother with v5.1 Update 1 because v5.2 is out!

Changelog (my comments in red):

- Fixed problem to install apps from the Market (sd)
- Kernel LP6 (improved tactile response failures and lets you install apps on the sd) So I guess this fixes your issue, cozins17! BUT, and this is a big BUT, apparently this removes the radio o.O So you either have the ability to copy to sd card, or you have 3G/HSDPA :P
- Fixed dark buttons (for TheAyden) Finally!
- Fixed effect on signal icons Again, finally!
- Added Polaris original Office
- Fixed and added Flash Player
- Arrangements aesthetic in Framework, Settings and System.UI
- New Icons in Status Bar (Bluethoot, USB, Music, Emails, etc) (blue ICS)
- Added Widget News and Time (Transparent widget)
- Added Samsung AccuWeather Widget
- As with v5.1, Nova and Trbuchet Launcher removed, install them by Recovery.

captin caveman · February 13th, 2012, 08:38 AM

A few questions from a relative noob , this is where I am now and Im looking to flash your 5.2 Rom could you talk me through it ??

Confused.com!
So with 5.2 I can move apps to SD but will lose all my 3g/HSDPA data connection??

Another thing I've noticed just today, none of my games are working?? Any ideas?

All credit to the rom goes to adesirello on xda.

Regardless on what rom you were on before, I'd recommend backup with Titanium / SMS Backup/Restore, then using CWM Recovery: full wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats then install. I'm assuming you are already rooted of course.

srsbsnyo · February 13th, 2012, 09:07 PM

Could somebody PM me a mirror for 5.2? To get swype, do I just install update 4.1 even though I'm currently on 5.1?

I don't believe adesirello would permit me to link a mirror. People on xda have mirrors floating around. Check the thread.

Regarding Swype, it's better to just download it from the market rather than install an old update.

Kie · February 15th, 2012, 02:02 AM

Alright just an update on v5.2. I finally got around to installing it and turns out Radio actually means FM Radio, not 3G etc... So my 3G works fine! But for some reason, the FM Radio doesn't work. I never use it anyway *shrug*

turbohobbit · February 15th, 2012, 04:37 AM

I've not really been following this to be honest (busy at work at the moment) - is this looking something like a (relatively) stable ICS ROM?!?

Yes, it's very stable - I only get about 1 crash per day and I've been running it for a couple of weeks now (although 5.0 was rubbish and I skipped it).

5.2 is good!

captin caveman · February 15th, 2012, 09:44 AM

fantastic ROM , only had a few hours but so far sooo good

subsist · February 16th, 2012, 10:16 AM

My galaxy s2 is arriving someday this week. I will be rooting it and installing this ROM straight away. Looks absolutely great and all the major kinks seem to have been ironed out. I was going to install CM7 but a stable ice cream sandwich ROM has been what I wanted all along!

Sure is my good mate. There's a few kinks to work out still and it seems that different people have varying problems, but the majority of users are very happy with it. Try it and see if you're one of them!

Also, v5.3 is out!!

Changelog:
- Softer and more stable
- Added Swype (operating)
- Added New Flash Player
- Added New Maps 6.3.0 (Less battery consumption)
- Added Video Editor
- Fixed TTS (Text to Speech)
- Fixed signal icons 3G, H, etc.
- Added Launcher Trebuchet (New version)
- Added Launcher Nova (New version)
- Fixed Polaris Office
- Fixed DSP Manager
- Arrangements in the Framework and Settings ...
- More ICS theme
- More things ...

It's working great for me! Only had time to flash and restore but seems great as usual! Also, sorry but I can't update the first post just now. Wedding is in 2 days and sooooo much to do!

There's also a new kernel to use, LPH. Download links on the xda thread, as usual.

AND: adesirello has said that a new version (probably v6.0) will be out next week, based on new leaked LPH rom. Can't wait!

captin caveman · February 17th, 2012, 06:36 AM

would'nt bother with v5.3 as it seems to have all the problems v5.1 had and more , gonna wait for v6.0 even though v5.2 is good for me theres no harm in taking a peek

I never really had any troubles personally with v5.1 but this one does seem to have a couple more crashes than usual. I'll stick with it, but looking forward to v6.0!

Tnx I will try looks ans sounds great

subsist · February 18th, 2012, 08:55 AM

I've installed 5.2 as people have been badmouthing 5.1 and 5.3. However, my wi-fi is acting a little strange. I can detect signals but the "connect" option remains greyed out at the password screen. Anyone else having this problem? Any known work-arounds?

EDIT: Solved the problem. For some reason I had to go into advanced options and tick the box about a WPS pin on the router.. never had to do that on my desire or laptop. Strange.

Kie · February 20th, 2012, 08:59 PM

Alright guys I'm gonna be on holiday for a couple of weeks (on Honeymoon!!) so I'll do a massive update when I get back (v8 will prolly be out by then :P).

ZR160_MAJ · February 21st, 2012, 06:56 AM

Enjoy babes and remeber bring me back some sweets and where IS MY PIECE OF ANDROID CAKE LOL

subsist · February 21st, 2012, 08:40 AM

I've found one consistent glitch where the phone crashes if the screen is locked with the LED torch switched on. Apart from that AndyX ROM 5.2 is as smooth as ice cream.

Belated congratulations, Kie. I'll be complaining to Royal Mail as my invitation obviously got lost in the post.

Enjoy yourselves, and if I see you logged-in over the next 2wks I'll be banning your account until you're back home!

Id suggest you start a new thread and this is about the new Andy X Rom based on ICS and I think your talking about the old version based on Gingerbread.

daffyduck · February 26th, 2012, 03:09 AM

Guys, sorry to tell you that Andy's ROM thread over on xda developers has been closed for repeated rules violations on posting material on the thread.

Its not a surprise to me as the OP was warned repeatedly about some of the things he was doing.

So, you may want to try another ROM while the OP attempts to get his thread reopened (which I'm not sure is possible).
