[NOTREALLY]ICS Thunderbolt Link - Thunderbolt General

http://androidbeast.com/1030/htc-thunderbolt-4g-eternity-custom-rom-guide/
I ran across this and it say's ICS and "most things are working". Is this real or is the site wrong on it being ICS?

This is very interesting, hopefully someone can shed some light on this. That would be awesome if it was a working ICS build, but for some reason part of me thinks this is just an ICS-Like ROM. I'm hoping though!

Eternity is awesome. Not ICS though. Sense 3.5. Very Smooth And stable with right settings. full day battery also.

The article at the link is from March... and suggests flashing a HTC sensation build. I don't think the author knows what he's talking about. On a side note... why is this in the development section?

Because I thought this was the section you talk about ROMS and **** in. My bad. Move it if it belongs elsewhere.

from reading over the link, i think it was just a typo. it should have said HTC instead of ICS.
if Infected put out an ICS rom in march, we would all know about it by now.

The link for the rom is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1003891
Its a great rom. Very polished. They have nightly builds which r248 is the latest and it is the most stable. They also have test builds which were updated to the .19 base, however I personally had a few issues with those. Development should be continuing on the rom soon.

About the link in the op...
I saw it yesterday I think. Posted on there that it needed to be corrected or removed, because info is either out of date or flat out wrong. Today... My post was deleted from their page. So, just ignore what it says. They don't care that it's giving wrong info.

Not even so much that they don't care.
It's a traffic grabber.
For a while, just about any tech site had ics and Thunderbolt as tags.
It's nothing more, nothing less IMHO.

What are the right settings to get Eternity smooth? After three hours playing with it I managed to download some of my apps (titanium isn't working on the rom for some reason) and... Well, it is by far the laggiest/ slowest ROM I've dealt with. Do I need to oc my kernel higher?
As it is, this ROM is near unusable.

What version are you running? If you're on r248 flash imos 5.2 kernel. Run the speed tweak script in terminal and set it up in normal mode (that's what I do). It's oc is 1.4ghz and undervolted to save battery. Change the governor to smartassv2 and change the scheduler to sio. Also, DONT RESTORE SYSYTEM APPS WITH TITANIUM BACKUP. I don't know if you did but that will screw things up. Make sure before you flash to super wipe and use 4ext recovery for flashing. Eternity isn't a laggy rom for me but you may consider using a different launcher instead of rosie.

Oh I know not to restore system apps with titanium. I'm not always the brightest... But at least that i know =)
Rosie... Yeah, I'm starting to get Rosie crashes after web browsing. Was hoping I wouldn't need to drop it, but oh well. Such is life.
Thanks for the kernel suggestions =) I appreciate it!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

this is NOT ICS
This is a really bloated rom with beats audio added and lots of other apps nobody wants or uses with sense UI. While it is a great rom, it is far from ICS in every respect I promise.

Still waiting

Still waiting on more development for the G2X, flashed the early release of Gingerbread and my facebook syncs don't work and neither did my gps, flashed Cyanogen and still had a few bugs and havent tried Bionix yet cause I don't like the all black theme. So I guess i'm patiently waiting for something to catch my eye.
And you started a thread just to tell us your still waiting? Lol you think anybody cares? There are a bunch of options out there to run most of which are amazing. Spend some time running the different roms and I think you would be pleasantly surprised that they are pretty bug free. It would have been a more rewarding time then making another I want more development thread.

Wow I can't believe you started a thread just to whine. When last time I checked, devs are not your employees or your slaves. If you don't like what's out there, tough, make something yourself.
To me, it seems like the rate of development is great compared to the time the phone has been out.
Really guys, calm down I was just expressing my feeling. You guys didn't have to reply to this either. I have been testing out other roms and these were my thoughts. Skyhigh2004, which rom are you currently running.
I'm running faux's aosp newest release and the ext 4 0.0.7 kernel. Smooth as butter, no lock ups, and everything that I have tried or needed works flawlessly. I have ran all of the roms on xda and I would also recommend bionix. I know you said you didn't like the theme but there is an optional stock Ginger theme in the theme section, its a really smooth rom. Try them out.

Just sit and hold your breath till a perfect rom comes out, seriously man how can you say you are waiting "patiently" when you start a new thread to complain....just run stock froyo! Or make your own rom!!!
G2X
Stock Gingerbread won't sync Facebook. Google did away with it. Only Custom roms will have this functionality.
As far as the theme, CM7 (and other custom roms) usually have built in Themes which you can download from the market and install. Changes the colors of the icons, notification bar, icons, etc.

Hey I flashed faux's aosp also but what do you mean "and the ext 4 0.0.7 kernel" Doesn't flashing it change the kernel?
I meant I flashed the alternate ext4 0.0.7 kernel on top of the rom after it booted up and I waited ten mins. The rom itself as packaged is ext3. There is a seperate thread for faux's extra kernels.

Coming from the Vibrant where we had only 4 major devs (Team Whiskey, EDT, Eugene and Master) I think this phone is doing pretty good!
We already have 4 major devs (Team Whiskey, Team Shockwave, CM7 and Faux123) in one month! And I've seen two others saying they are making roms for it too, just have not release them yet! Forgot their names!!!
I think what we do need is more themes, but that's it!

do a news search for google + facebook it seems facebook was caught trying to spread negative rumors about Google.
In other words facebook was talking **** and got caught lol
I haven't caught up on what happened but its not the first thing that makes it seem like they aren't playing nicely.I wonder if it also have to do with both google and facebook possibly becoming competitors in some of the same markets they are trying to expand into. what ever happened to the recently re-rumored facebook phone?

Theory of why we don't have sense 3.5 or cm7

The mytouch 4g slide specs are too powerful. In the interest of sales and the economy, the government is forced to limit development on this perfect piece of hardware. If we had cm7 or sense 3.5 with gpu UI rendering (harware acceleration)... People would be so happy with their phone that they would not buy a new one, ever again...

You might want to also try undeads absolution. Its pretty nice and basically has all the kanged cm has plus a couple fixes and debloated some more which is always a good thing.
On a side note you might want to give undeads senseless ROM a try as he's got a good bit of cm stuff mixed in to keep it interesting if you want to keep the TV out and good awesome sense camera and 1080p video and not have a bunch of useless crap the stock room had in it. Actually I recommend it at this current moment as cm is great but at the expense of losing a couple of the premium qualities (camera,TV out) of this phone??

It's basically an alpha...
It's a nice start...but the kernel in it will murder your battery. There are some market issues as well as keyboard glitches.
Here's a list posted of issues by the OP
The current buglist:
- Recording in HD Video is limited to 720p currently.
- Camera zoom is limited to 2X.
- Certain browser issues, such as reported crashes and flash 11 movie compatibility issues. (CyanogenMod).
For the most part you might be better off sticking to Undeadk9's Senseless for now..... Might want to hold off till Sunday Undeadk9's got something to share.
But here's CM7

Haven't noticed anything particularly bad with battery consumption. Not as good as my Vision, but WAY better than Doubleshot STOCK.

Browser "issues" easily corrected through the use of a REAL BROWSER, aka FIREFOX.
The other issues with the camera... less than significant.

CyanogenMod on T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G [Pics]

Hey guys just wanted to show you some screenshots of the famous CyanogenMod. I am running version 7.1.0. I haven't had any real problems with the ROM yet and i have been running it for about a month. Only thing i have really noticed is that it won't vibrate when i get a text message... even when its on vibrate. Another thing that bugs me is that you do not have the option to set a Live Wallpaper... but you get over it. The kernel i am using is the stock kernel with this ROM... I am wanting to flash a 1.5GHZ kernel, but i never seem to have that much luck flashing kernels and always get stuck at the boot screen. This ROM is plenty fast enough and very smooth on the stock kernel. I also get amazing battery life. Check out the thumbnails below.
Um...not sure what to say. CM7 has been out for the Sensation for a couple months.

Just saw you had troubles getting your phone to boot after a kernel flash. Do you wipe cache and dalvik before you reboot ? If not, that might be the reason it gets stuck in a loopboot.

I just flashed the 1.73ghz faux kernel and i got it to work. =) i also attached a thumbnail of SetCPU showing the clock speed.
Nice let us know how it performs. I'm on HD Rom now with 1.56Ghz Kernel. Happy with the phone as is but always looking for potential improvements. Particularly I want more "4G" speed, not sure there's much I can do about that though.

Why but a sense equipped phone and then downgrade it with ugly CM7? You should really have bought a samsung, at least then the ugliness would be vivid, very bright and have a greenish tinge.
But if thats your preference, enjoy it - We are all different after all

Help me choose a rom

Number 1 for me is stability. I am looking for a Rom that fully works or for the most part everything is working. Full camera functionality/flash, Sending and receiving SMS & MMS, GPS (I use navigation often), making and receiving calls, all the basic stuff that work on stock. Stability is my main objective. Second would be battery life & fluidity. Everything else like customization options is a nice bonus
I expected the Jelly Bean OTA to be better than it was. I did a factory reset when I got the update to make sure my phone started fresh. Even formatted internal and external SD card. I just expected a better experience. They took away some things I loved and added some things I don't like. But the main thing that bothers me is the occasional stutter/lag. And I notice battery life is worst on the JB OTA. I thought JB was suppose to be refined, it's not totally buttery smooth like they promote it to be. At least not on the stock Verizon variant of the GS3.
I am looking at "The Executioner" or the CleanRom/CleanRom Lite Edition. Any opinions or thoughts by people who have ran both would be appreciated!! I realize roms, as most things in life are a personal preference but I'd still like to get some opinions.

Can you send me a link to that particular thread? I'd appreciate it bro. I'm only asking the people who have tried those two roms or either CleanRom or Executioner.

Who cares if there's other threads about the same thing? It's called a forum for a reason. Save your 2 cents for helpful advice.
Anyway I'm thinking of switching to executioner rom also. On synergy now.

Who cares that the mods hate it... Isnt this what the forum is for? To talk about the galaxy s3? At least its not in the wrong section

People spend hours putting together guides, doing reviews, etc. It's frustrating sometimes to see how little effort some people put into utilizing the forum.
It works both ways. These boards would be alot less cluttered if people searched. We're all guilty of it, I'm not preaching. Just know where he coming from.
For example there's a great guide in the android development forum that compares many different roms.

Anyone using ICS still?

I'm wondering just in case GB starts to lose support from app developers. I'd like to know if ics is 100% stable at this point, and all features work. I'm all about stability and having everything work the way it was intended.
Bling is cool, as long as it doesn't introduce glitches and hitches.
Ummmm....ICS is pretty dead I dont know if anyone still uses it.....JB is more stable now I have no issues with any app

Only issue with both ics and jb on the infuse is camera stuttering on video recording...actually ics may have a couple mote bugs

Well, GB is pretty dead too, according to some here. But at least it's 100% stable. (at least the revenant rom is) But after perusing the JB threads, it would seem that there are still issues to be ironed out. It may be "good enough" for some, but good enough is not good enough for me.
I guess it looks like I'll be staying with GB for as long as possible. The only reason I upgraded to GB was because some apps no longer work on Froyo.
If you actually flash a Jb ROM I'm willing to bet you won't find something you use daily that has any issues I'm using carbon nightly and I don't have any issues....honestly GB doesn't have really any features I couldn't be on GB anymore

OK, please elaborate more. On JB, does flash work? GPS? And what go you mean GB doesn't have any features? I mean, GB works 100% as far as apps and functionality so I'm confused. It does what I ask it to. What would JB give me that GB doesn't? Are you talking about bells and whistles?

I still use GB. I would not describe myself as a heavy user though. I use the phone mostly for the call, text and camera function.
I like my gmail, calendar and contacts sync'ed.
I don't have all the fb, twitter etc
When I tested out JB, I found a few things I liked:
1. gtalk updated better.
2. gmail had other options. Scrollable widget. Calendar had scrollable widget also. Calendar has more detailed display
3. Chrome worked. Native Browser was better.
4. Google body (now defunct-ed) worked..it needed a 3.0+ platform.
5. I don't use it but others like the theme engine.
6. The weather update on the lock screen was a nice touch.
7. The quick launch from the lock screen was neat...although I don't usually use the lock screen.
8. Back up and restore apps is more comprehensive.
9. Google Now and Google Keep is neat to try.
There were others but I forget...
For my phone, I still like the simpler GB interface and the battery life (less processes running means less battery usage)
fwiw, Entropy said his cm9 was stable..and "dead" too. Supposedly he had a more updated one but never release. Supposedly, aremo/he may have a different cm10?..I'm not sure though...
My final thoughts...to each his own...find something that you like...

Thanks for the info. I don't see anything on that list that is a must have though. Hopefully, GB will be supported by app devs until next spring when my contract is up. Carry on.
yeah..nothing must have..just interesting to test.
jb may be a step up in the most updated device designed to run it with support from chip set manufacturer. (ex: gn2, sgs3, sgs4)
for the most part, i prefer a tablet or pc...my phone is mostly a phone/digital assistant...but i suspect i'm a minority here

Well...unless it was fixed recently...camera is still wonky is it not? Stuttering with 720p recording...that's pretty major to a lot of people, although I myself can live with out it...it was a pretty major downside of jb/ics...on the occasion I wanted to get a video I really couldn't :/, but IMHO that one con doesn't weigh out the pros
But you can't say gb doesn't really have any features when they do have a fully working camera...just saying

But most people realize they're not going to be shooting hollywood movies with the thing. I'm not complaining though, it's good enough for what I need.
I thought ICS was the only version for the infuse with working full encryption?
I have 10GB of organized GB Roms/themes, ICS Roms/themes(lost files ), Tweaks for GB/ICS, all old recovery stuff, and 3 open source kernels Samsung had released. I have talked to 3-4 forum moderators for approval and I will be creating around 150 links for the infuse community for lost/broken links and there may/may not be broken but will all be on dev-host 4 u guys. I am hopping this will help u guys b4 I leave. I am hopping to make this post within the next week or 2 in the general section. Cheers :thumbup:
I am also going to be posting all the links to EVERY official post
Note* this is all I have left, I had a partition failure and I lost all I had but these files due to being on DropBox, I am still hopping to retrieve my missing files and Ken has been helping me all the way!=)
