Thanks for porting this. Do all the basics work (camera, 4g, etc)?

Yep! I believe the only thing not working is camcorder!

Dat camcorder, always an issue. Great job on the ROM!

Someone told me data wasn't working? But others said it did. Are you guys good?

 

[kmwhiten]

The download link to the GAPPS is broken. will any GAPPs zip work?

 

[techno-update]

Pretty much an ICS gapps should work. Sorry about that.

Ok thanks, I will give this ROM a try tonight and tell you what I think of it.

My phone wont boot after installing this..
I wiped everything.. Idk what happened.. but I'm currently bricked..

I'll recover it via RSD, and try again.. if that doesn't work though, I'll need help.. sadly.
Today, I feel like a noob. D:

Bootstrap or safestrap?

 

[johnlgalt]

Since there is a slightly newer version of GApps at Goo.im Downloads - Browsing gapps for CM9-based ROMs, would it be better to use that link instead?

Nice work, too!

 

[kmwhiten]

I did try this ROM and it felt good but the data didnt work for me.

 

[Josheranderson]

Bootstrap or safestrap?

Bootstrap.. Shall I try safestrap?

 

[johnlgalt]

DHacker has said that the ICS4BIONIC aka CM90 Self Kang is supposed to work with bootstrap, but it's better if we stick to safestrap....

have you used safestrap before?

 

[techno-update]

I recommend safestrap.

 

[Josheranderson]

I have never used safestrap before, no.. But I got it to work finally..
No data though.. :/ I guess I'll just wait until that's fixed.

 

[techno-update]

Data is really giving me some trouble.

 

[johnlgalt]

Are you taking DHacker's CM9 base and applying the custom apps to it, or are you taking it straight from the D3 build and porting? Just curious....

 

[techno-update]

I use his CM9 as a base.

 

[techno-update]

It has more custom than apps though framework edits

 

[johnlgalt]

Hmmm. I have data working perfectly on CM9 Unofficial for BIONIC. I wonder if the framework edits are screwing with the data....

I live(d) in an area that was 3G only - this morning I woke up to 4G (yay!) so I can do a lot more playing around now, instead of waiting until I get home to be able to DL large ROMs. I'm already safestrapped, so I can play if you need me to for testing etc.

LMK

Just for S&G I'm going to get your latest release and see how it looks - never played with an Xperia before so I don't know anything about their UI customizations...

Hit me up on twitter @techorom I post my test stuff there. I have a few tester, but another would be great! I don't have a Bionic which makes it a little harder.
