Seems pretty cool. But very slow... Takes forces to load and download. Anyone else having problems?

I just installed about half hour ago and I have to say it's fantastic! Google is on UI TEAR right now #winning.
I really like how they condensed the app list into two columns and made each smaller. It now shows 14 apps per page on my Sensation where the old Market only showed like 5 or 6. Makes scrolling through content much faster.
I also really like the additions of the "Top Grossing", "Top New Paid", "Top New Free", and "Trending" categories. Will make app discovery much more useful!
My only gripe is that it doesn't show the file size for an app UNTIL you start downloading. This is info that needs to stay up front!
I agree with just about everything you said. They did great with the new market. So you are not. Having the same speed issues as me?

Oops I left that part out. It IS a lil slow compared to the old market, little lag but nothing too crazy. I think mostly b/c there is much more info on each page now and the way it loads the thumbnails/images, even though they are smaller. I'm sure they will iron it out quickly though
Google did an amazing job.
It looks so clean and beautiful, everything is organized better, etc. And I'm not having the slow loads or anything that you are having. It's actually faster. With the old market you would click download and it would take a second or 2 to start, but on this new market I click download and it's literally instant. I love it.
It actually looks like a market that should be on a high end OS/phone, unlike the old market.
Slow for me as well. It'll take a while to get used to the new format, but so far so good.
Has anyobdy tried a movie yet? Quality?
Also the new widget... All I get is an icon with black. And grey backround. Same for everybody else?

Nope, my widget is working perfect too.
Where did you download from? I downloaded from the link on the androidcentral.com article.
Working well for me. A little slow on first use then it clears right up.
Got my apk from the link on Engadget article.

just trying it out too -- its pretty slick. The front page is a little busy perhaps, but overall its great.
I'm liking it as well.
Installed it earlier.. Love it!!
new market is slick as hell. I love it. I don't really notice too much of a lag compared to the old market, which I hated in the first place especially in landscape mode. The new one looks more sophisticated.
fyi, in case nobody caught on, when you hit the menu button and go into setting while in the market, you can deselect "recieve interest based ads". I don't know if that had anything to do with it but I really don't have any lag. Also, I pulled the battery right after I installed it so some of you guys might wanna try that too.
I took the liberty of showing you guys what gingerbread looks like- on video. New features include Android 2.3.4 (but no video chat on G-Talk?), new T-Mo bloatware, quick settings, etc. check it out!

Thank goodness YouTube has a mute button.
Thanks for the vid. I could be wrong, but isn't this the first Sense ROM to have Android 2.3.4? Every other version of Sense I've seen has had 2.3.3. Cool!
Thanks I can't wait til this update gets to my phone

First, thanks guys! I'm glad you guys appreciate the video, and for the record this is the ROM that was leaked on Monday, but it's the same as the one T-Mo is rolling out
and my screen works fine, it's just harder to use when your making a video the update didn't do anything screen wise

My screen is very responsive running on Virtuous Unity. I noticed that too on the video. I'd hope an update wouldn't make your screen unresponsive. He may not have been touching right those few times. Also, some apps get like that from time to time where they get a little unresponsive
so basically nothing changed like i dont really see a difference looks wise i mean i would rather flash and all so i can get nice themes and all

I noticed that they changed the camera as well, it now has more effects. The calculator has been tweaked as well. And this may be just me, but the battery life seems better. I'm still in green and usually by now I'm in yellow.
Has there been any issues from the OTA update, other than not being able to root? Has the suspend issue been fixed?
I love the fact it has the "4G" instead of "H"

I've made PyroIce my new Daily, and we all know it has some bugs. So I thought I'd start a thread to help Unclutter the fourm.
Here's the first thing I've found out.
- Wi-Fi Networks that are WEP/PSK locked can be connected to without having to Manualy put the name in.
Nova Launcher is a Great ICS Replacement Launcher. It can be downloaded from the Market. Or found on XDA as a flashable Zip. That makes it a system app, and allows widgets to be accessed from the launcher.
It has homescreen effects, drawer effects. Custom Grid Sizes, and all widgets are resizeable. Its the ADW of ICS, and is better than CM9's Launcher for 4.0.1.

I want to install this on my wife's phone, but she has no appreciation for the great work being done here. I would rather not put something on her phone that is going to cause me grief.
Also, is the user interface the same?

to be honest, its a great rom. for people that know how to deal with beta roms. if your lookin for a grief free rom, id use another one. i use this but i dont mind the small issues and can deal with them. the user interface is ICS, so the same as ICS yeah? same and gingerbread.. no, lil different. more user friendly i think.
New release is wifey friendly... I think mine could handle it and she has to gripe for a couple months b4 she asks me to root her phone....

Good, the only reason I won't root my girls phone is cause I don't wanna fix it.
Does anyone know if you can unlink the notification volume and ringer volume in ICS?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk
first off, i think this rom is simply great, considering that ics is on very few devices right now, and that our phone is a bit slow in general with development (nothing against all the devs on this phone, cuz what they have made are all really good)
two questions:
does anyone know why the camcorder app is limited to 720p recording? it's definitely not a big issue, but this camera is considered to be one of the best, seems like a shame to waste it.
also, any way to fix the htc dialer showing up in the call and to answer a call you have to unlock first?
how's everyone's battery life doing? mine's much better than when i had cm7 on it
I was looking at 1080p but for some strange reason libstagefright camerasource detects that 1080p is not available. Coudlnt binary hack that, and no idea why that happens.
You can use fullscreen caller id to let you receive calls without unlocking, or can use widgetlocker from market with security set off.

gotcha ill switch over to the non sense version now, thanks for the quick reply.
Posting here because I'm still a "New" user and cant post in dev form.
I'm running PyroIce Sense and I cant view any flash websites. Anyone else having this problem? I've tried re-installing Flash, Dolphin (wont work on stock browser as well), and reflashed the rom.
Any ideas?

Try opera mobile - proper flash support is one of their selling points. Unsure if it'll help, but worth a shot - mobile, not mini.

If i enter full screen browser hangs. if i zoom in, it will play, but it's very choppy with elements of my wallpaper mixed in, sometimes it's the notifications bar that draws itself into the flash. It's very odd.
thanks for the help! (loving this rom BTW)

it would be great if i still used firefox on my desktop for syncing but i'm a chrome user and that makes the chrome beta better for me since that also syncs with desktop version.
Thanks for the notice. I've been on the FF beta and have been disappointed. Have found Chrome way better/faster.
Off to try the new version!

have to admit, so far the ff is winning in my books. I'm posting this on this and it is fluid, not bouncing, flash works great so far. bookmark syncing isnt a deal breaker for me anymore since i hardly use my laptop sxcept for using adb or other flashing tools. rendered the xda main list in a fraction of the time and with way less stutter than most browsers. happy doaner!
I wish this came out six months ago as I'm using Chrome across all my devices.
only using for a few hours so far, but loving it on my one x

It's definitely a great improvement over what I remember FF being on my old phone. Looks very promising for being beta. I am definitely a Firefox guy though so I am a bit biased.
However, if I am being honest I would say so far Chrome seems to be much more optimized on the HOX. All the stylistic and design choices I've encountered so far seem to have been made with Android (ICS) in mind from the start.
With the FF browser the vibe I get is quite the opposite: that they wanted to have traditional FF on an Android device.
Haven't had a chance to really test things like speed/memory performance yet. Looking good though.
I agree with the OP, the new FF beta is fantastic. Kind of shockingly so.
Loading sites The Verge and Engadget it performs better than any mobile browser I've used and that includes Safari.
Definitely an improvement over the original FF, but if you want speed check out Quick ICS Browser. It's my default on both the HOX and GTab.
I'm running cm9 and when you scroll vertically it doesn't really go very far.. it feels kinda heavy?
Is there anyway to make it scroll further so that it feels lighter? Hope this makes sense its hard to describe what I mean.

I'm not sure if that Rom has this option but some roms have a infinite scroll option that might help. I know my Rom has this option. Check your settings to see if it's available. Best wishes .

Infinite scroll is for the Rosie, makes it so it keeps going in a cycle.
Does anyone know how to improve this? When I say increase scrolling distance, I mean so the scrolling is kinda like iOS... I'm not saying I want iOS but I do like the scrolling.

I get what you mean. I've tried CM9 before and I get that same experience when flicking pages up and down...it felt kinda heavy and not smooth. That's why I reverted back to HyperNonSense in order to enjoy this smooth flicking experience. However some claim that by putting these parameters into the /system/build.prop of CM9 and reboot helps:
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=240
ro.min.fling_velocity=8000
to.max.fling_velocity=12000
You may wanna give it a shot and see if that helps.
