Ice Cream Sandwich (Android OS 4.0) - myTouch 4G General

Who else is extremely excited for ICS? The UI is beautiful.
What else can we expect from ICS besides the UI?

Hardware acceleration.

I'm looking forward to it, but who knows if it will ever get to our hardware. I may be looking forward to it on my next phone. Ha.

So you're saying some assholes are good? lol!
I'm looking forward to seeing how it runs on the myTouch 4G. (Just got mine back from HTC yesterday after a warranty repair. They replaced my good LCD with the bad one =( ... but all is working as it should again!) You guys think we'd get anything official? If not, CM (among others) will bring it to us, right?I bet it'll be real nice. Did they announce minimum specs to have ICS?
I personally love the looks of the UI. I especially like the widget management and if I remember correctly, I believe I heard there will be a native screen capture function (AT LAST!). Outside of those things and the hardware acceleration mentioned above, I don't know a whole lot about ICS, so I'll be following this thread pretty closely.

I did say the ui guys. I'm pretty sure the os is great. I just don't like how it looks.

I agree. From what I have seen in the videos, I think I like sense 3.0/3.5 UI more than ICS UI. HTC might make sense even better with ICS. I would definitely wait for ICS based sense ui.

Do you think that there will be an update to ICS for the MT4G? It looks pretty cool, but even if there is a custom rom with it, I can't get it because I have a bad EMMC chip.

i doubt it. we didn't get a android 2.3.5 or 2.3.7 update, i'm guessing android 2.3.4 was our last (and only) OTA. tmobile considers the MT4G as an "old phone" now
now i may be wrong though, so don't trust me 100% lol

Sense 3.0

just saw this on the xda news.... any dev looking at this?
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/exclusive-htc-pyramid-photos/
I'm definitely a first day buyer. Regardless of what happens with AT&T, this phone is too good to pass up. Besides, we'll still get more than enough use out of it.
Now, it's either this or the G2X. I'm looking forward to this but I HOPE it comes out soon!
Oooooh....is the sense 3.0 going to maybe be open source or available in the sdk?

The G2X looks very appealing, but the Pyramid has a couple of things that the G2X does not - more RAM, bigger screen, and a better display resolution. Most importantly, it's made by HTC.
I am, however, very happy to see that T-Mo has finally stepped up its game in terms of high-end handsets. Unfortunately, in light of the impending AT&T buyout, it may be a bit too late in the game.
This phone would be perfect for me to use on wind! Me wants!

Read this.....http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/the-complete-review-of-cyanogenmod-7-walkthrough-guide
Cm7 is fast and quite customizable.
Myt4g on pacquiao type roids.miui.panache.
My old Desire with CM7 on it has never been so fast! It's a really nice modified rom that's fast and doesn't have all the Sense bloatware on it.
That being said, I like Sense. And I'm happy with my Sensation now . But I might give CM7 a try just for kicks.
It's vanilla Android with small tweaks that make it great. You have a small ROM that is fast and made by a team of awesome coders.
CM goes way back with the first google phone. So allot of people know it.

I had an Eris before my current DInc2 and cm is crap for both. They have little to NO support for my phone and every time I run their ROM it fails as bad if not worse than the half assed alphas put there. Sure it has cool customization choices, but on my DInc2 it is worthless in my opinion until it is fully functional.
I (and you) should never settle for less than fully functional for something so "popular"

The one good thing to come from CM7 is MIUI - which I'm quite looking forward to trying (although I probably go back to Sense)
Personally I am more of a fan of the CM7 based ROMs that come after. Each developer gets a chance to put there own unique touch to the cm7 based ROMs. I remember from the nexus one days after cm dropped the ROMS came flying in with everyone's personal touch. The CM7 code provides a rock solid base with all features working.

How many bricked phones?

Has there been many bricked phones recorded, like bad chips or is it random?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
Nope. I havent heard of one brick.
Sent from my Senseless Doubleshot using xda premium
Me either - we've been fortunate.
I was in a verizon store the other day looking at upgrading my phone because I broke the screen, and it happened to be right after i'd reflashed to stock to test something.
I was talking to a rep about rooting and stuff, and went to show him how to remap a hardware key to something else. Realized I wasn't rooted, but had the superuser update on my sdcard. I just reflashed it and continued with what I was trying to show him.
Hah, he was like "wow, that easy, huh? it took you like 20 seconds...aren't you worried about bricking your phone?"
I explained how you can only really brick it when writing a radio file, which I wasn't doing, and that we had zero reports of bricks thus far - and then proceeded to knock on wood and hope that we continue to be so fortunate.
undeadk9 and blue6ix, thanks for your replies .
No problem, we're here to help.
Just to clarify, I broke my other phone, not my beloved doubleshot.
So are the rooting methods here novice level? By the looks of them they require a lot of concentration.

Its not a z4 root. But its easy enough.
It's really hard to brick our phone. Thanks to good support on our forums and good directions.
I havent heard of one software error that resulted in a total loss for our phone.
Beautiful, should I follow instructions from an xda thread or head straight to the site. And thanks for all the help. It is really appreciated. Again, undeadk9 and droidmoder. Edit- went to the site and an xda thread is definitely what I need, in the mtg4 slide compendium thread there is like 3 or 4, any suggestions as to the friendliest one or are they all comparable in ease? Edit- not to get ahead of myself, is the modaco recovery. More stable than clockworkmod?

I use sense on crack. I'm too spolied wih. Sense and gb. Cm7 senseless and virtrious are all aosp. I ve used senseless but as I said to spoiled with some stock features that aosp does not have or is way different. Aosps are similar minus the devs themeing and added features.
All the roms are easy to install just follow directions. Cm7 uses the new clockwork while the other ones use the older version (modaco).
They all have great support devs are helpful. Undeadk9 is the author of sense on crack and senseless. He's super helpful.

Fwiw the iPod vid cable as well as the creative zen vision m cables work in case you have one sitting around and want to check it out.
AS for the bricks i'm not worried about it.. Based on my brief research these aren't like the glaciers (mt4g) where it's a lottery as to if you'll end up with one that has the crappy Sharp lcd and bad emmc or get lucky with a Sony lcd and good emmc. I went through 3 of them before finally ending up with one that had the good screen and emmc but even that over had a hardware issue a the camera wouldn't work...... Hence why i'm on the mt4gs now oddly the guys there painted a bad picture of this slide when I mentioned I'd be switching to this phone which I can say was completely obviously based on no real knowledge or having experienced this phone. and sorry to say a lot of dev support for a dated device does not make for a better phone although it does make it more pleasurable to have....which some will try to make one think otherwise.........

You could of read the compendium before you bought it .
Myself I have to have a hardware keyboard coming from a g1. I liked the mt4g but wanted a keyboard. I saw the slide was announced to be released in a few months. So I waited. When it came out I was tempted by the g2x. But the camera keyboard and similar specs sold me the slide.
Best implusive/informed purchase I've made yet. I use this phone more than my laptop. Its fast as heck, has an awsome camera and I can watch netflix or game on my tv.

Yeah but here is the thing...what will HTC add with ICS...remember in all actuallity the OEM system is now Gingerbread but mysense added to it...your user expirience is the redheaded T-mo branded version of sense (which I hate compared to the real one) So is HTC going to release ICS with sense 3.5 or will it be like the phones released early next year with sense 4.0? So yeah while we will have probally Cyanogen 8 and maybe ICS AOSP I can't wait to see a ROM that is ICS with Sense....

Well I seen a story posted on the web by AndroidCore about the HTC devices and the Doubleshot was not on it...but one question was since t-mobile branded it from HTC wonder if it would be up to T-mo....there should be no reason the doubleshot would get overlooked it is a new device now...
Well looks like it was front page here...
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/htc-announces-which-devices-get-ice-cream-sandwich/
The decision is a combination of HTC and T-Mobile. More importantly, you should simply focus on the fact we aren't finished announcing devices that will receive the ICS upgrade.

Sum it up yes switchmy opinion lol.... and Erikmm is also very helpful in our little community.... just the truth people. Hope you make the right choice... what is he other option if you don't mind me asking? :highfive:

I'm actually getting the blaze today. On the mytouch I was just sticking with gingerbread cause jelly bean and even ics would have to many bugs or just not be quick and smooth enough to make the transition out of gingerbread worth it. I'm really hoping to at least find a smooth ics Rom on this phone with no bugs

If you want a stable cm10... well its right around the corner. Been testing 2 kernels for dr4stic, and both are rock solid. No sods NOTHING. Can't imagine it getting much better than this. You'll have a vast selection to choose from when you decide what's best for you. If you find something you like don't hesitate to hit thx or donate to any of these great devs. Let's keep this community strong by showing these devs how much their truly appreciated. Cheers to all

Well I rooted and flashed the tweaked ICS ROM and so far it doesn't seem like a huge improvement from the my touch 4g. Its a solid ROM just was expecting more from this phone being that its newer and on paper has a better processor

No worries. ICS is no JB that's for sure, and truth be told ALL the awesome options available to the Blaze should be tried out! That's the great thing about having such options - you can start choosing based on preferences as opposed to basic functionality. I'm a smali hack at best - I would consider the other tinkerers for the Blaze to be far more qualified of a "developer" title than I really - so folks should really make sure to test the various waters as you never know what you might be missing!
Smali hacking isn't easy lol. I've learned a lot from you dwitherell

Theirs nothing wrong with the ROM. I just haven't seen anything so far that makes this phone noticeably better than the mytouch 4g which is what I switched from

Well single core to dual core, NFC, slightly larger screen, 4g 42mbps, larger capacity battery, and adreno 220 are things that I would consider better. At my dad's house near Minneapolis I can pull 20+mpbs on 4g...
But at the end of the day, you still are running android and that's not going to change much... and if you liked sense than you will likely not like TW. No guarantee that you also wouldn't like aosp either (my wife doesn't - she prefers sense). My wife has a sensation 4g and I see a major difference between her phone and my blaze. I prefer the blaze, because of those features listed (and access to the sd card without having to dissemble the phone to get to it) and I prefer TW (using TW5 launcher) to any sense rom. Sense just seems bloated to me and the Blaze just seems to be more responsive.
But hey, they're just phones and everyone is entitled to their own opinions and can like whatever they choose to like

I'm actually running CM7 on my Mytouch 4G. I agree with you on sense feeling bloated. As far as the screen size, when I put the phones next to each other you really can't notice an increase in size.
