Welcome to Ice Cream Scamwich v2.0. Heavily improved from the last release. Implemented a bunch of ICS/CM7 functions, and this thing is a long ways from its original gingerbread home.

I thought you all might enjoy some new stuff. Totally stable and fit your everyday use.


This currently does not change your kernel. This means if you are overclocked, then you stay overclocked. If you have stock then you stay stock.


This ROM is/has
  • Built off Stock (my Deodexed ROM)
  • ROOTED
  • Deodexed
  • Zip-Aligned
  • Init.d Support
  • Some build.prop tweaks, other random things
  • Full ICS themed(More Added-fonts, progress bar, sliders, etc.)
  • Superuser
  • Es File Explorer
  • Dolphin Browser
Updates- 2.0

  • Lidroid Toggles (14 panel control widget-wifi,gps,data,bt,lockscreen,airplane, etc)*
  • More ICS-like popups.
  • RE-Re-redid Settings (looks, added battery)
  • Added ICScamwich settings section with Quickpanel settings, No frills CPU control, and ICS lockscreen options
  • Changed around the checkbox look
  • updated QuickPic(somehow they made it faster)
  • other stuff
  • ICS camera stock (WORKING panorama)

Updates- 1.5

  • Swipe To Remove Notifications
  • Transparency
  • Rebuilt Settings
  • JB Date and Time in status bar
  • ICS themed MIUI Music (now the phone doesnt sound like junk at over half volume
  • MIUI Camera
  • all branding removed

DOWNLOAD HERE ----- version 2.0
IceCreamScamwich2.0.zip

*Toggle Tips-You can set which ones you want , and the order from Quickpanel settings.
FLASHLIGHT DOES NOT WORK- our phone doesnt have one, so this will FC your status bar, then it will pop back up in a few seconds.
Screen Timeout-works, but FC status bar during the switch. I just take both of these out of my panels.


Not so old older versions

IceCreamScamwichv1.5.zip
ThemeUpdate.zip

IceCreamScamwichv1.zip

THESE IS AN OLD VERSION AND IS CWM BACKUP, not update. I should just remove it, but i got a ton of room on mediafire, so itll stay.

IceCreamDreamOC.zip OVERCLOCKED Version.
(Uses anthony's kernel - http://androidforums.com/avail-all-...el-kernel1-0-update-apr-7-11-33-released.html ) Thanks man. Where'd ya go?



INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IN CWM , or Touchnav, or TWRP if we end up getting it
Download IceCreamScamwichv2.zip
Navigate to your recovery (vol up+Menu plus Power On.)
MAKE A BACKUP!!! BAKCUP WHAT YOU GOT. just in case. always make backups before you flash anything, as a good rule of thumb.
Wipe your dalvik cache, and the cache.
(optional- wipe DATA. You dont need to , but it may not be perfect, so...)
Select "Install Zip from Sdcard"
Chose IceCreamScamwichv2.zip.
let it do its thing.




Ive included some apps from the Stock merit (live wallpaper,etc). Ive installed wallpapers, books and a couple others. Anything not here you can get at the play store.

This is NOT CWM flashable. download it, unzip and put the apps you want on your sdcard. Some apps have to be copied to system/app and some can be simply installed by long pressing in the file explorer. You can figure it out(wallpaper had to be on /app)


download here StockappsMERIT.zip

if you want the stock task manager- TaskManager.apk


WARNING-IF YOUR PHONE BREAKS I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. Nor is anyone at this site. This stuffs worked for hundreds of people, so you shouldn't worry about that, but i didnt break it. enjoy :D.

THANKS TO !!


Lidroid- For the toggles. You sir are genius
Hansip87- Swipe to Remove notifications
balamu96m- Settings redesign
Bloodawn- Porting Lidroid to the ZTE warp, which gave me a good base idea. Also might have ganked some pngs now that I look at it.
EVERYONE who posts guides, tutorials, how-tos, etc. You guys rock and this wouldnt have happened if you didnt decide to be hlepful and share knowledge. So Thanks
(..some more I gotta dig up).


If you feel like buying me a coffee to keep chugging along with this dev stuff, it'd be much appreciated.

Why this rom is only 49.28mb? Until now, they were all over 80mb and more. Do you need to unpack (no OC)?
Do you think it will work on the European roamer, or do we wait for the European version. If it be (I hope so)? I will definitely try this as soon as I can, within the next week.
Congratulations on your success, I'm glad that we finally get ICS, and we now have more ICS roms.:congrats:
And finally thank you very, very much, a lot of the hard work.:congrats:

It's not true ICS, but it is really close. This ROM is about as close as the Z990 will get until we can build a kernel that's compatible with ICS.

yeah reading is fundamental. i missed that part about it being a CWM backup. no i have it working but the only problem i'm having now is that i can't seem to get the cronmod script to work anymore to expand my internal memory onto a partition on my sd card. i would really like to get that working. still trying

oh ok good. I managed to recreate the "rethink possible" stuck problem. i downloaded one.three and tried to install over that and get caught there. im thinking i need to add a boot.img for you guys.

Question-can you install the scamwichv1 zip on top of the CWM backup and have it work?(load the backup, then flash .zip) that would help narrow it down.

I should have it sorted by morning.

LUCHI- Thanks. did you manage to install this on avail or merit?


Edit-its a smaller file becuase I inadvertently set the compression level higher. still installs fine over merit.

Just tryed to go back to CWM and reinstall last rom. I was not able too. I hit the reset button next to the camera then was able to get in to CWM. I reinstalled last rom, and its like boot looping. I tryed to install a rom I had on the sd card same thing. Now its like the battery is dead and I cant do any thing. Trying to charge the batt and see.

mike-why the reset button? I usually just pull battery and put it back in then go to cwm. Is it bootlooping the att screen or the ics panels? Do nandroid CWM backups still install fine? luchi-good. The install from zip version right? what steps did you take. still trying to narrow this oddness down.

It killed my batt. Dont know what happened or if it was a bad download. I did pull the batt. It would only power up as long as i had it pluged in. I ended up haveing to do a T-card flash. But its fresh as can be now. In the batt stat, It showed as a full charged batt then down to 0 when I flashed your rom. It didnt show it as charging also. But all is good now. You just cant kill this little phone...

Installed CWM6 found on this site on a stock T card flash (ATT Avail).
Downloaded IceCreamDreamOC.zip and unzipped using winrar then copied to the /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups as instructed in post #3.
did the restore after partitioning and all installed just fine.
Rom is fast and updated looking the only thing I've noticed in this short time is the confirmation selections text is grey and almost matches their background.

I installed this over an avail rom, and it worked fine. i added some important things for you guys to have. Make sure to do some wipes and BE PATIENT!. i almost gave up because it sat on the att screen for about 5 minutes. But then it kicked onto my ICS boot and loaded up fine. Did some more tweaks and such too.

KODO mazda enginners term for (soul in motion). I have to say this is the best designed rom we have for this phone. I can tell you have really put some time in to this. The bar has been set very high now and I would like to put out a challenge for all the other devs of our phone. BUT with that said, This rom on my phone has the Lonzo effect. Its haunted. After shutting it down for the night, it restarts on its on about 3 to 5 mins later. I had the same problem with Jamies last rom also. I do like this rom other then that. Great work

Also Im haveing a problem with playstore. When I go to search at the top of the page, I get a Force Close. I have to down load apps from my pc.
