Root [rom]cm9 *[beta]*

Sounds like it's not going to help the DroidX or Droid2.

Big break through guys. Looks like the camera is finally working through a simple build.prop edit. If you're on 03082012, all you have to do is change one line.

In the build.prop, go to the line that says "ro.media.capture.classification" and change whatever is written there to either classD or classE. classD didn't work for me, but classE did.

Not sure if the stock camera app works, didn't give it a shot yet. However, Camera MX is definitely working, lgCamera, and HDR Camera is working as well. Just tested those three. Not sure if anybody is still following this ROM, but there you go.

 

[colchiro]

Stock camera FC's, that's why no official release with camera fixed.

Jonman409 posted a fixed build that I installed a couple hours ago: CyanogenMod 9 [UNOFFICIAL] [Beta] - RootzWiki - Page 282

Many camera apps like LGCamera DO work tho.

I came from Galnet MIUI and just wiped data and caches.

 

[Xelios]

Yeah, the stock app just keeps crashing. I haven't bothered testing the stock app. I remember before the fix, it would take a lot of tries to even get it working with the purple tint. LGCamera is definitely the best one out of all the apps I've tried.

Thanks for posting that build though. I didn't catch it when I was sorting through the pages looking for the fix. I'll flash it now just incase I missed any other fixes in the thread. IMO now that the camera is working, this ROM is pretty much fully functional.

Once the developers call it functional I'm in. CANT WAIT!!!!

I'm not getting deep sleep so ran thru a battery pretty quick. I suspect it's an app doing it, tho this isn't my first ICS rom.

I wonder if it's an app not written for ICS code OR if it's the stupid locked bootloader that has been causing all of our problems on this phone from Day 1.

I would love to dual boot this ROM just to try it out and see if my phone has the ability to run it as a daily driver without blowing up my whole phone. Has anyone done this yet? I have not purchased Boot Manager yet, but if it works with this ROM dual booted with CM7 I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Is your wifi on? I had that problem since firstEncounter ICS. I haven't checked it on this ROM because I just got used to turning the wifi off an night. Absolutely decimated my battery in a few hours.

 

[colchiro]

I uninstalled Droid Overclock and it's sleeping today now. I saw that before with DO in ICS MIUI, but Set CPU only goes to 1000 for me.

Yesterday I installed this when I got off work at 4 p.m (fully charged) and by 10:00 it was all set up. By 10:30 I was down to 14%. I have an extended battery.

 

[mtbhk44]

OK - so I went ahead and installed this last night. It's pretty good. Not as snappy as I thought it would be but it's a pretty nice ROM. I installed Nova and it adds back that real estate you lose b/c of the Google Search bar. Not sure if I'll keep nova or use ADW. I was under the impression that the camera fix was included in the 3/8 build. My camera is not working. Does anyone know if this is an issue with my install or if I have to modify the code?

Edit: I take it back - I tried LG Camera again this morning and it's working fine. No idea what changed but I'm happy

Don't forget there's also Apex Launcher for ICS.

Yes, stock camera doesn't work, but many of the other ones do work.

I had to blow this up. As much as I enjoyed some of the ICS features and look forward to them, it just wasn't sitting right on my phone. I burned through 40% battery in 3 hours. Most of the time the screen was off. I cannot use that ROM on this phone and not be near a charger. Plus, I didn't think it was smooth enough as compared to the CM7 ROMs that are out there. In fact, it was very unresponsive at least half of the time.

I'll try it again when and if it ever comes out of beta, but it didn't play nice with my X in its current state.

 

[colchiro]

You've got a bad app there or restored more than just user apps from TIBU.

Now if only Netflix would work I'd be in.

FYI -

Installed the 03/14 build last night with the 02/16 GAPPS.... working well, except for cameras (have tried MX, LG, QuickSnap) and BuildProp is set to ClassE -

Battery life is pretty good though and generally it works great!

 

[colchiro]

I think the fixed version of 03/08 might be better.

I think the fixed version of 03/08 might be better.

This was just OK. I enjoyed some of the features of ICS quite a bit, but in general it just did not sit right on my phone. I reinstalled it again on Saturday night and sat with it for about 24 hours. There was just some lag there that I did not see any reason to stick with. Even typing with Swiftkey became a bit painful if the phone was on too long. I don't know if the multi tasking didn't work well or there isn't enough RAM on this phone? I'm not sure. I ran it totally bare bones to make sure it wasn't an app that was slowing it down.

So I'm back to the [CM7 KANG]YACMK v1.0.0 I was running before I reinstalled ICS. I have not run it long enough to decide if I'm sticking with it, but so far, it's really nice. I did read that CM 7.2 RC1 is out - and the X is included. I may give that one a shot...maybe

Stock camera is working now. CyanogenMod 9 [UNOFFICIAL] [Beta] - RootzWiki - Page 342

 

[bubbaken]

I'm on it

Stock camera is working but no flash/video. Lets see if I can stay on a ROM for +48 hours.

 

[mtbhk44]

OK - so - how is this version? I really want to stick with ICS - anyone else experiencing any of the lag I was with the 3/8 and 3/13 versions?

 

[WhoDoo Voodoo]

I'm on the version from the 19th, the lag from the operating system isn't bad, but you have to use sky fire browser to use flash and there is definately lag there. I get about stock battery life from .605. I'm running PSX roms fine on the OS. Didn't run much off earlier ones but it sounds like you had a program conflict or something of that nature.

 

[mtbhk44]

The first time around I could have definitely attributed the lag to a program conflict. But the second time around I ran it bare w/no prior OS data and still had the lag. It wasn't terrible, but after running CM7 with ZERO lag, I couldn't see running this phone (or any future phone) with any lag. I guess I'll pass here

 

[WhoDoo Voodoo]

Bear in mind it's just the browser that has lag right now. So once they get the flash issue taken care of you should be GTG.

It says wifi works, but I'm unable to start it. If I open the wifi menu, it sits on starting wifi until I rotate the screen, then it picks up no networks. If I enable it, then open the wifi menu, it still picks up no networks.
I've tried with my ad hoc network and my neighbor's infrastructure. This problem is identical to what I experienced on my D1, and there everyone said it worked fine for them too
