From what I'm reading, it's the SGS2, no mention of skyrocket unless I missed something.

I'm fine with what I've got. What does ICS have that's making everyone here wet themselves??

I have a feeling Samsung will release ICS for the SkyRocket by March. AT&T on the other hand..... but that's pretty cool because with all of the ROMS available (and hopefully upcomming ROMS and MODS) the current OS is still pretty cool and highly functional. I have one question Sean. IS there or will there be a way to enable NFC on the stock ROM. I don't want to keep beating this into the ground, but with ICS a ways off, NFC would be a nice addition to the stock ROM. Someday I will be ready to try different ROMS (more than likely one of yours), but until then I'm going to stick with stock. Thanks.

Skyrocket uses the same sound chip (yamaha), so it'd destroy it on the SR also.
Our ICS dev is even more destroyed by the fact that we have a different SoC, we'd honestly probably have to take the code from something like the Vivid or the Rezound for the drivers for the CPU, GPU, stuff like that, correct me if I'm wrong here dev's.

Hopefully, I just helped a little (donated). We have to support and keep the DEVS. If you could get NFC working on stock...that would be awesome, but all of yours (and the other DEVS work) is deeply appriciate!

Bought you a couple of beers for your hard work too...

This is my first android phone regardless, so gingerbread is still cool with me. But i would like to get ICS eventually. But i take it we have to wait for samsung to roll out their update before we can start making true ICS roms. Sky ice cream sandwich is holding me over anyway.
I know the ICS beta leaked for the galaxy s2, just not skyrocket. So at least they are working on something over there.

Well, for starters, it's the first Android OS that's actually built to utilize dual core processing (not the case for Gingerbread). For everything else, try doing some actual reading on ICS sometime.

Out of the box maybe, but once we have it, devs will be in a much better position to give us AOSP-like ROMs that work like they should.

It's the single biggest leap the OS has ever taken (particularly on phones, since it incorporates all the advancements of Honeycomb as well).
It's much faster, optimized for dual core, features a fully hardware accellerated UI so everything is much smoother and more responsive, much improved multi-tasking support, a major redesign to the actual look, and improvements to most of the native google apps.
If the firmware of your phone is at all a concern to you, ICS is a pretty big deal. It doesn't reinvent the Android experience, but it's as major of a refinement as we've ever gotten.

I believe he may have been talking about this. It's an ICS build from qualcomm for the MSM8660 processor... which just happens to be the processor we have on the skyrocket.

Sorry I no longer have this device.

Is there anyone still waiting for the answer like me?
I need a full working camera for s7 port. It really smooth but lack of some feature in camera like stock one and slow motion.
I remember the stock one when u hit shot button it take so slow but the quality is very good (compare to all update later).
Can anyone fix this thread trouble or can anyone teach me how to install the original camera app in the 4.2.2 rom on the note 7/s7 port rom?
Thanks!!

S5 MM camera.

Maybe, this help you.
On firmware, which I using, slowmotion working fine, but 60 FPS and selective focus not...
Also, animated photo, sound photo and virtual tour working fine.:highfive:

don't you always lose image quality when switching from stock to custom rom, no matter if it's a Sony, Samsung or OnePlus?
many OnePlus users still return to stock rom because of the worse image quality on custom roms.
I've never heard anything different than that.
correct me if I'm wrong.

It's for almost every brand the same: AOSP never came completely up to stock, because of the framework and optimization from the original builders: The OEM. But since we have many good devs around, porting the Google Camera to fit for our device, at least non-pro shots will be equal, if not better than stock. You can come close with several other apps too:
• Open Camera
• Snap Camera HDR Pro (Smells a bit abandoned, to be honest.)
• A Better Camera Unlocked (Also smells abandoned, but works fine. At least for now.)
• Footej Camera Pro
• Hedge Cam 2 (With the correct settings, you will get par to better photos than with stock. Based on Open Camera.)
For normal, I'd list Manual Camera and Camera FV-5 too, but both are too old and are for sure completely abandoned.

Micky,
based on solely the image quality - would you prefer a custom rom on the op5/5t or the stock rom? and even though you probably don't own a crystal glass ball, what's your stand on this when it comes to the op6?
thx!

I was and I ever will be a user of CyanogenMod / LinageOS. At least, you should switch one time back, because of this:
https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/open-ears-forums-key-actions-update.865969/
When this fixes come out, OxygenOS should really become obsolete in terms of image quality. But spoken of this: Isn't there a nice, working Google Camera port already out for the 5/5T? I skipped the 5/5T, because OnePlus really pis... me off for reasons - another story.

LuneOS on the Mi A1

Hi everyone,
Another heads up with respect to a Mi A1 project -- one which will be of special interest to the webOS refugees among us.
The LuneOS project has just announced that the Mi A1 is their new target device. You can read all about it over at PivotCE: https://pivotce.com/2018/11/28/luneos-november-stable-release-doppio/
The LuneOS project is an effort to create an open-source webOS distribution for smartphones (and possibly other devices). It has recently received a major helping hand from LG, which has open sourced a lot of new webOS code developed for their smart TVs. That being said, LuneOS is not suitable for everyday use. There's a lot left to do and the project is run entirely by a group of volunteers who don't do timelines. So don't ask them when it will be ready!
What I really love about this decision is that they were looking for an inexpensive development device to replace the Nexus 4. That's exactly why I bought my Mi A1 -- and I think it's shaping up to be next in the line of great development targets, like the HTC HD2 and the Nexus 4. I couldn't be happier about that.

Yep, very interesting os
But can u give me link for the install tutorial

Bad? It's a project in development. As I mentioned, it's not suitable for everyday use and there's still a lot to do.
But the RIL and calling not working is a regression. Both used to work on the Nexus 4. The regression is likely the result of adopting a new device and the recent work to integrate with the Halium project. That's just me speculating, though.
Thanks for providing the test results. I'm looking forward to giving it a go and seeing what does and doesn't work at this point (and which of the old webOS apps I can install, etc.).

Installation
Hello,
I would like to test LuneOS on my Mi A1 but don't succeed in installing it.
Which stock ROM (7.1.2, there are quite a few) do I have to flash, and where can I obtain a working TWRP bootable with this stock rom?
I'm somehow not able to boot suggested TWRP image with latest 7.1.2 stock rom, maybe you could provide some links?
By the way: Is latest stable update >>stable<< enough to make phone calls and access LTE internet already?
Thank you in advance!

Lock screen / notifications, Pixel style

Hi,
I recently switched from Pixel Experience back to MIUI global because I couldn't live with the adaptive brightness problems and relative poor battery life. So far MIUI works okay, I changed the launcher to Nova, but I really liked the black notification screen / OAD on the Pixel devices. Like this: https://www.xda-developers.com/files/2017/11/Google-Pixel-Always-on-Display.png
Do you know if there's a mod / theme that can add this, or style the current notifications? Thanks in advance!

There is magisk module named Pix3lify. I haven't tested it yet...

Do you want that on a LCD screen?

I would highly recommend HavocOS, it's probably the best aosp rom for the Mix 2S. It puts pixel experience to shame lol.
