[Q&A][GENERAL]Tweaked 2.x ICS - Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G

Howdy folks -
The main thread should be limited to major error/bug reports and logcats - use this thread for all the general conversation and questions/answers stuffs.
Hope you guys like it!

Downloading now testing shortly! (grumble grumble) ...stupid 8 thanks per day limit...

Ok - just wanted to share this as it was frustrating me and didn't make the 2.0 release... but I managed to figure it out
An early start to 2.1 I suppose...

Any way to change the docks with different apps?

Same way you do it with stock - you have to open up the app drawer, hit the menu button, then select edit. You may need to switch the view type first - do that, and then you can drag things from the app drawer into the dock and vice versa.

Hey again -
To the few that do try this rom out - feel free to drop suggestions for other things to try and work in (beyond lockscreens of course). While I do have one known (and one unknown) surprise ready, I'd like to get a few more things worked into an update if at all possible. I can't say I'll be able to work in what is suggested, but I'll give it a shot at least

Having an updated tw launcher or a different launcher with the ability to have 5 or 6 apps in the dock would be all that I would ask for. Everything else is fantastic. Thanks for all your efforts.

Yeah I've thought about such things, but I always circle back to the idea that there are so many great 3rd party launchers out there I should let it be to encourage folks to explore those options lol. I also am leery on putting in a launcher that has a pay version or has the whole ask-for-permission hassle (that's not really a hassle), but I'll keep my eyes peeled for something different.
I am of course open to suggestions

Yeah I have run the gambit : holo, zeam, adw, nova... all seem to be missing something that just isn't there or costs 4 bones to have... I'm gonna search through xda as the play store has been a bust. If I find anything I'll post for sure.

Seems a good ROM, thank you. One thing, Google now didn't seem to be there/working for me. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be but I added it without any bother so it's hardly a real issue. Oh also what does the 'swag' button do on quick toggles. It seemed to just take me to download mode. Anyway, thanks again

Google Now should have been working - all the stuff from the referenced link was added for it anyway. How is it different now vs. when you first flashed the ROM? Could you get me a screenshot of what it looks like for you now? Perhaps I missed something...
LOL on the swag toggle - I meant to change how that behaved. The toggle is there for fun only, but to mess with people on the Gingerbread build I had it set to force download mode if you turned it on while auto-brightness is turned on - I forgot to change that, my bad
EDIT: Derp... I see what I forgot... Ok, it will be fixed in 2.1, sorry about that For those not wanting to go and flash anything, all you need to do is delete /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox_USA.apk and then reboot and all will be well. My bad.

Google now just wasn't there before. It was standard search. Now I've added it mine looks like this:

I added Google now by flashing this zip which I found in the thread you linked to (so of course I take no credit for it and I'm not to blame if it causes the apocalypse)

Yep - everything in that is already in the rom, I just forgot to remove an apk. D'oh.

First off - thanks to those that have offered some feedback on this, it is very much appreciated. That being said, I know not many have tried this out but I'm getting an update together, so I wanted to ask if anyone has noticed anything else not working quite as they expected or anything that should be changed/added/removed...?
I haven't come across anything I wanna do with the launcher yet, but I have cleaned up a few things in the toggles, Google Now is now working as it should, I fixed another little bug I found when you first turn on wifi after flashing... outside of that is there anything people have found that I should address before updating? No worries if not - like I said not many have tried this out, but I'd like to get all the little issues ironed out before updating if possible.

Great ROM. Very smooth. But is there any way I can get the touchwiz ICS style battery percentage next to the battery icon?

Hmm... is there an image you can share for this? I'm just not sure if you mean the size/font color of the %, or if its the battery icon itself is what needs to change. Shoot me an image and I'll get on it

Yeah... the dreaded theming lol. Any themers in the house? I could take a crack at it, but I've technically never really done it before. I suppose now is as good a time as any to learn right?
Thanks for the feedback folks - with all the other options out there it makes me appreciate it all the more

Any way to see emoji?? I know go sms lets you see them.

HTC Rosie

Can someone tell me what the "Rosie" is? Is this a part of Sense or something. I've seen it referenced but can't figure out what it is.
Thanks!

And you didn't make a backup?
Anytime you apply a mod, make sure it was built for your build number, not another phones
I was wondering too since I came from the OG Droid to this. I use launcher pro so that seems to take care of most of the junk, but when I go to select a wallpaper there is a Live Wallpapers(live wallpaper picker) and Live Wallpapers(rosie utility). Small annoyance but will be gone when I root

Can you do the theme from phoenix rom for heinz 57 (with 2fast's permission of course). It looks so awesome but i just cant seem to stay stable on phoenix for the life of me.
What issue is it that you can't get stable with? As gas's rom was built from the same thing mine is. Along with the fact he has even went to putting some of the same stuff in it.
The only issue as of right now is swype which I know what it is. I just have to get that far.

android battery bar

ok, a few years back, my windows phone had this really cool app, it was a bar across the top that was 1 or 2 pixels tall, multi colored that displayed the amount of battery left. someone told me it was in a rom, but I can't find it to save my life. maybe one of you has seen it or knows which mod, or anything about it, because I would LOVE to have that stupid little bar back.
Thanks
Pat.

It's built in to Cyanogen mod, if that's available for your particular decide. Not multi color as far as I know though.

sorry if im mistaken, i dont think this feature is on cyanogen mod. It is however on most of the 'MIUI' roms, i think it is standard on there.
Is this possible to have standalone? This would complete my device.

damn, wish it was standalone.. I'm pretty loyal to my current rom, at least until I get the new samsung infuse or whatever it's called.
+1 here, i still use LvmTopBat in my winmo, in colour and its the best. easy to read and always there.
hoping for a port
I like the tactics here
MIUI has that option.

Cool, thanks. Let me know what comes up. What seems to be a problem, what seems to be broken, how the GUI looks.
if anyone knows how to disable the power saver feature, so that your screen and keyboard don't get all dark once you hit 15 or 10% battery, and also so that you can still use your camera at 10% battery, I think it would be cool. not sure if this power saver annoys other people or not, lol, but there were ROMs for the Epic 4G that had this tweak, but I never found out how it was done.
Your skype version doesn't work properly. The advance features crash the app. Also just a sidenote the skype is for gingerbread not froyo so that's probably why

Thanks for letting me know. Does it run faster than GOV2 did? Any glitches?
It's good for your first rom I've had a few androids now and for not being a heavy developer it is good. Personally i cant give a good comparison as i have my gov2 supercharged, it seems to run just as nice though. I didnt use this rom super long, more like i just wanted to test it out. Keep up the goodwork!

yeah, same here, constant force close loop, with only about 2 or 3 seconds to try and do anything in-between force closes.
Thanks for the feedback guys! From now on, I'm going to leave this ROM but I may come back to it in the future for whatever reason. For now on, please use the latest version of GenericGinger, which at the time of this post is 3.4 BETA. Thanks!

I have taken into consideration what you guys want. From now on, my roms will have the "my network status" option and I'll simply include a flashable zip for those that prefer the lockscreen mods. Cool?

That's great but I mean if it isn't that much work you could just have two
