Hi all, just installed the new 1/16/12 cm9. There was a post in the developer thread indicating that this version breaks face lock. Just wanted to pass along my experience. I did not have this issue. Facelock is working great. I did a full wipe data/dalvik/cache using the rogue cwm.
The only issue i Seem to be having is with the browser and ics browser plus. They seem very slow to respond to loading pages, and entering text (like searching in Google). Has anyone else experienced similar problems? I did not see this problem when I was on EOS nightlies build 36. Any suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated.
Also I did flash the latest gapps that was posted with cm9
Good to hear 1/16 did not break facelock for you.
I can confirm that 1/15 Kang did have oddities around certain apps closing. For example, if you close Google Currents, Youtube, B&N Nook, Kang 1/15 would pause before closing the apps (minimized). Browser and others did not exhibit this issue.
As for your specific issue, 1/15 did not have browser load or other performance issues. IMHO, 1/15 had full functionality except for those apps closing.
There are some visual artifacts in "Burn the City" game where the screen would intermittently flash on 1/15.
Same here (Installed CM9 from 1/16 with new GAPPS). No issue with the browser lagging. Did you wipe/reset your data before installing CM9 and GAPPS? If not, try wiping, then install the ROM and immediately install the Google apps (make sure you have the latest from 1/18 which is version 5.2) after the ROM without rebooting in between. Then reboot at the end. Hope this helps.
Overall 1/16 Kang is smooth. But I've had some weird app closing issues but only a few (Google Currents, B&N Nook Reader, YouTube).
When you're in the App and press HOME, the Xoom shrinks upper and lower by 1/3 and then waits for about 1/2 a sec then minimizes/closes.
On some games like "Burn the City" it causes intermittent screen flashing.
Other apps seem to run fine. Have other people seen this too?
Tempted to restore to stock and flash the official release.
Let me us know how it goes with the official release. BTW I saw on the Development threads that there's a rooted version of the official release that can be installed via Recovery so you won't need to return to stock first (saves a few steps).
reboot isues
my xoom ever since th 26th update has had restarting issues not all the time bout 4 times in a 24 hour period every time i update i wipe everything and start over but im still having this issue updating to the 29th update today i hope this fixes it has anybody else had this issue
I am on the newest update of task650/ktoonsez AOKP for ATT GS2. The update is from 7/3 and it was working fine until last week or so. It no longer lets me use the Lockscreen options. It force closes every time I try to access it. The clock and wifi mess up occasionally too. I tried wiping/reflashing but it didnt seem to help for long (either that or I didnt wipe/reflash correctly). Any suggestions?
Having an issue with Google Navigation (maps is ok), but whenever it goes 3D mode it crashes shortly after :|
Currently on HBoot 2.14
Have noticed E/Sensors (973): MLUpdateData error (code 31) a couple of times throughout the logcat, is this G-Sensor related?
Phone slowing down after Viper 3.1
Did anyone who installed Viper 3.1 experience phone slowing down after the install? There is a lag when the notification bar is pulled down or switching between screens.
Being a noob, this is what I did -
1.) fastboot flash boot boot.img
2.) wiped cache and dlvik cache
3.) flashed viper3.1.zip
4.) I haven't tinkered around with the kernel. It should be the stock.
In effort of speeding up the device, I went to Venom Tweaks --> CPU and switched to "Performance". Not sure if that was the right thing to do.
Reading the Forums, everyone seems to have buttery smooth experience, not me
Any help is appreciated.

This is something I've noticed from Jelly Bean in general ( Cyanagenmod, AOKP, and Sense 4.5 ). Devs keep saying they'll address it before it eventually gets swept under the rug. Between that and signal issues I was having I've switched back to running stock (I'd rather have a working phone with a little bloat and a few less features). If you have to have Google Navigation you may want to do the same. Or maybe someone could set up a bounty to have devs actually do something about it (if there is something that can be done). Or you can go back to sense 4.0 for the time being. Sorry to sound like a negative Nancy.

The lag when pulling down notification is because you have quick toggles enabled. Disable them and it will be much faster.

On the topic of the Notification bar, I have the Horizontal Quick Settings, has VQS been ported over as well or only HQS at this time? ViperXL 3.1.0
Cheers.
Waze is what I always use on JB roms, works like a champ. Its sweet, one of the coolest apps in the market. So another one who recommends waze
was on gingerbread. waited and waited for the OTA updated. ended up rooting. ice cream sandwich update came out and couldn't get it OTA. used Kies and installed the update. finally, now have ICS. lost root access. so anyone out there with the official ics? recommend what to do now!

I'd flash a ROM. I recommend CM10 to have Jelly Bean! There are a lot of ROMS in the dev section. Go choose one. Make sure you flash a recovery!
Sent from my CM10 Blaze
I'll second the recommendation to go to a JB based rom.
any convincing wins for the JB release? as i am pretty content with what i have on ICS. everything has been smooth so far, nothing buggy at all.
improvements todo: root, remove bloatware, get wifi tethering to work (currently broadcasts signal but devices cannot connect - says connection is unsuccessful)
here are my screenshots (if i should get something else):
1. Lock screen - I noticed the text notification that appears turned black in ics, which i like. it just blends in with my lock screen wallpaper. going for the simple dark black wallpaper for longer battery life? i guess haha
farm9.staticflickr.com/8250/8453732470_8826585926.jpg
2. Screen 1 - man that weather widget that comes with Eye in the Sky is the best weather app! plain simple
farm9.staticflickr.com/8251/8453732494_45cd46759f.jpg
3. Screen 2 - My home screen with a black google search bar that came with ics, yay! also using Widgetsoid with those widgets that i happen to use quite often.
farm9.staticflickr.com/8381/8453732504_333f2afecf.jpg
4. Screen 3 - Well more Widgetsoid action going here. This is my utilities section. I just decided to turn my regular icons into the widgetsoid theme. The weather is actually USB tethering now here. I am enjoying the sound recorder and flashlight of easy access.
farm9.staticflickr.com/8385/8453732484_e8fef3b090.jpg
so yep, recommend widgetsoid and eye in the sky. AND I AM A NOOB ON XDA CAN'T POST LINKS OR PICS
Swype is a little slow in messaging for some reason. A weird icon appears every time at the top of notifications indicating 'Swype in use' so that may be making swype a bit more laggy. ANYONE EXPERIENCE THIS? this new icon appears in ics and not gingerbread. what about JB?
There is the Tweaked ICS rom also if you do like ICS. It's already debloated and optimized. The Swpye icon can be diasbled in the swype options.
Also you can disable most the bloatware now that you are on the stock ICS. Go to settings > apps > select "all" and disable what you want (if it can be).
As for JB, they are all pretty good (bug free). I'm currently using Slim Bean 3.1 with the inverted packages, but you really can't go wrong with any of them. Try them and find out. But you still have to flash CWM and make a backup with it first thing.
GL and enjoy.

Some may need to have the updates uninstalled first, it's in the same location.
it seems like i was able to do a lot of stuff already without rooting. thanks to the disable app feature in ICS, it is pretty much like titanium backup. ended up bypassing the built-in hotspot check and can tether wifi.
well, i ended up rooting. so what am i to use root features on?
guess i can only think of AdFree. also, i can permanently remove disabled apps. anything else to take advantage of root access?
If you go to a Jellybean based rom, most of them have button light notifications. "What is that?", you may ask...
The blaze doesn't have an LED to visually notify you if a call came or a message came...sure, the screen can activate when the call is coming, but if you're in the other room and don't hear it, or if the phone is on silent and you don't see it, you'll never know about it until you actually check your phone by turning on the screen...
Which many people do INCESSANTLY.
Button light notifications can enable the back/home/voice/settings LED to light up so you can be notified of it. It's nice to have.
Also, Google Now works by default with JellyBean, no funny business required. I had Google Now on rooted ICS and I liked it, but the only one that works on ICS for our phone is of course a much older version of Now, and it doesn't support certain features.
Google now is great, check it out on youtube or something.
This might get asked a lot but how is the battery life on JB??
For ICS, I'm currently charging about once every 1.5 days. I usually charge it at night, sometimes I can skip one night and charge it the night after. Sometimes I do use the phone a lot during the day and need to charge it within the next night, maybe even within half a day, but rarely. Sometimes I just charge it at work, so ~1.5 days. To get the 2 days worth, I'm usually Airplane mode-ing it when I'm definitely not going to be looking at my phone, such as at work except for breaks - I can probably go 2.5 days like this, but I still charge at 2.
How does JB compare?
This is from cm10

That must've been the nightlies back in November huh lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Pretty much every time I flash a JB ROM my infuse is fine for a few days. Sometimes even a week. Perhaps a bit laggy, but I guess that's expected given the outdated hardware.
Then eventually I start getting having these two issues
1) random shut offs - in this case the phone sometimes will not boot unless I pull the battery and put it back in.
2) or an error that reads something like "unfortunately System UI has stopped"
I can press "okay" and then get the error again over and over. I can only get out of it by pulling the battery, or holding the power button down.
I did go back to GB for a while and did not have any of these problems.
All my apps are installed from the play store, not restored from a backup. I do not overclock or undervolt.
I'd simply blame hardware, except I don't seem to have problems with GB.
This has always happened to me as well. I would say that its due to incompatibility with JB. Wasn't so bad on ICS but I found that on JB I would be reflashing after only about 2 weeks because it got so bad.

Try Paranoid Android 4.1.2 pa_infuse4g-2.53-04NOV2012-152548 . I have been using that with no issues except the Video camera being crap (photos just fine though), and you have to toggle wifi on and off to get it working. 4.2.2 roms don't work that well on really any phone I have tried even the Gnex I own had issues. I upgraded from AEON straight to Paranoid Android using their upgrade steps listed on their page. No problems no errors didn't even loose my IMEI.
I have tried the newest 4.2.2 roms from liquid, Cyan, and paranoid android. 4.2.2 roms acted badly for me in general I can't remember if I ever got that exact error. I Keep on wiping and going back to my 4.1.2 PA nandroid backup. I kinda think it might be a general 4.2.2 issue dunno.
Also saw this on the latest Beanstalk out 4-10 (so I think you should stick to 4.1.2 roms which of course don't get updated anymore)
Trouble Alerts/Workarounds:
Status bar/Notification Drawer - There seems to be a bug with the 4.2.2 status bar/notification drawer freezing. It is happening on numerous phones at random and there is not a fix available yet. Workaround - Numerous ways to workaround this issue, but easiest in my opinion is to go to settings - system settings - PIE - Enable/Disable PIE. This restarts systemUI and unfreezes the status bar.
Does anyone know what sh means? Android os is destroying my battery life.

I hope you have now the latest JB ROMS update, and every thing is working fine.

for me, Beanstalk latest build 1.205 is working awesome, battery life is like i do not need to charge for two days.
