What do you guys think, does our lowly HeroC have what it takes? Also, even if it does, do we have the devs left to get it going? Sorry...I'm all geeked up for the announcement tonight. Plus, I'm not due for an upgrade until March...eek!

What do you think?
And, also.. please move this to the Q/A or General section.
Sorry. Will do once I'm on my pc. Not sure I can move it from xda app.
Also, I'm hoping for some official cm8 love or something along those lines.
Eventually!? At least I hope we do.

That would be awesome if it did but i believe that you can do it seeing that you got other things working like HC and Sense 3.5.
I know this is in the wrong section. Anyone tell me how to move it to general? Just thought I would see who else was psyched for ICS like me.

We probably have to wait till a low end device comes out running it, or it gets ported to a similar device, like we had to wait for the Pico. Only time will tell. . .

Man i know you can get it to work You done some pretty amazing stuff on here and if you cant maybe you can get Jaybob to help you or something
with the navigation buttons at the bottom, it might be a little cramped. sure we can change the dpi to like 120 but my phone lags when i try to make everything smaller and fit more on the screen.
Or if the navigation buttons can be removed... who knows. Of course even cramped ICS would be great on our Heroes.
Im almost positive we will get some sort of port of ICS. Ever since froyo the companies have been saying that the hero simply can not handel the new updates because of minimal system requirements. However I red an article with a Q&A about ICS, and one of the questions was what are the minimal system requirements for ICS? The anser was none that i can think of right now. ICS is meant to bring Android tablets and phones toghether in developmental terms. Google is trying to unify android, rather than have phones rounning one type of android and tablets another. It has even been said that ICS will be available for older devices of up to one year old or so. But in closeing im prety optimistic about a port for the Hero, and probably sooner than latter.
Considering that our devs got the source now I'm sure were gona see ICS can't wait

I downloaded the beta version of ICS for hero to see how it looks and feels it"s a little buggy it has some things that need to be worked out like not being able to pair with bluetooth device and bluetooth turning off completely and not being able to turn it back on again... Also when trying to turn on wifi hotspot the phone just hangs there saying turning on wifi screen I let it run for 5 minutes before I rebooted my phone... This rom is in early stages of devoplement and if and when the stuff that isn't working gets fixed I see this as my next rom of choice... Nice work jaybob on a job will done and a million thanks to you...
The gist is: Is it possible to make a Captivate do this? I know that just about every Motorola android has a nice little reorienting animation when you turn it over. We (and by "we" I mean "you geniuses who know what the hell you're doing") managed to implement the now standard crt screen-off animation. Any chance at getting the "flip?"

Does this need to be built into a rom? Or is there a flashable mod or DIY guide that I'm unaware of?
Sidenote: I love your work, Logic. I do flash your roms. I've just never seen (or don't recall) an animation for switching back and forth between portrait and landscape.

LostLogic is talking about something completely different, IE the transitions between apps or pop ups.
As for your question, ICS has it (running it right now) so you can flash an ICS ROM like the team hacksung one. I'm running that right now and it has the aforementioned animation.

I've personally been on Build 6 of Teamhacksung's ICS for a couple days and I've had no blaring issues. I use my phone pretty much same as you, based on your description. Definitely loving ICS so far.
How is the battery life on the ICS port? Same as CyanogenMod?

All,
I was able to update my locked/stock Vivid to ICS using the RUU. Everything went well after locating the appropriate Windows 7 drivers. After using it for a couple of days, here's some random thoughts and questions:
In Gingerbread I was able to download an HTC battery widget from the HTC Hub. I can't find it now in the updated (ICS) version of the HTC hub. Am I just missing it? Not a big deal since I have Beautiful Widgets installed, but the HTC version matches the overall Sense theme better.
When using static wallpaper swiping between home screens does not cause the wallpaper to scroll. I thought it did this in GB, but I might be mistaken. Is there a setting somewhere for this?
Rearranging the lock screen shortcuts isn't intuitive. After a bit of trial and error I had the light bulb moment and realized that they are using the shortcuts on the launcher for the home screen shortcuts as well.
Speed! This ROM is fast, even for an arguably bloated stock offering.
Sense 3.6 is a bit of a disappointment after seeing the clean look of the Sense 4.0 screenshots. It strikes me as odd for them to offer (and then have to support) this interim version. The hardware is capable of 4.0 (speculation on my part) so this leads me to believe HTC/AT&T just want to differentiate between the One series and not cannibalize sales.
I'm loving the new home screen folders. Much more polished looking than Gingerbread
Bluetooth is performing better under ICS than GB. My wife noted that the call quality when paired to my Pioneer AVIC Z110BT car head unit was slightly better now. Less echo, but still not great. Likely a head unit problem more than the phone - the AVIC units are notoriously bad for BT performance.
Overall a very positive upgrade! I must admit I was shocked that AT&T would get this update out so quickly. I figured they'd drag their feet until after the launch of the One series if not longer.
-Brett.
I agree with you about it being a positive upgrade but I wouldn't exactly say AT&T got it out, I think credit for that goes to PirateGhost. AT&T from what I understand has only sent it to one person that we know of. I wonder what will happen when AT&T actually does try to push the upgrade in my area?
When I run the "AT&T Software Update" from settings, I get an error message, "Server Unavailable." So, AT&T is not yet putting out the ICS update, at least not in my area. IF and when they begin, it probably will take some time to get it out to all users.
I suspect the version currently in the wild was released for a little field testing to see what happens.
The AT&T update told me that my software was up to date right before I flashed ICS, so the update definitely isn't out in my area yet. When I got my phone on 2/25 the guy at the store told me an update was coming in 'a few months.'

To answer one of your questions, GB does not scroll a static background (at lease the background that I am using on my phone).

Are you using an image that is wider than a single screen? For instance, I'm trying on of the ICS default background images as found here. It's wide enough to scroll through several home screens but for some reason it's not scrolling.

That battery widget trashes battery life by polling the battery percentage all the time.
so far so good
I have been running on ics since the first night it was available and I think it is fairlly smooth and fast. Everything seems to work well but when i try to check for software it dosent do anything. But I am greatfull to Pirate and all who made it possible. I hate to see the devs going for sure. This seems to be a descent device for real and I hope we can get the dev's rolling again.

I hadn't considered that. Do you know if the holds true for the Beautiful Widgets battery widget? I would assume all battery widgets use a similar polling mechanism.
Does it make a difference if it's not on the main home screen? I would hope these widgets would be smart enough to only update when in view.

Good point. Was it ever determined if this was a test version or the final product? Any reports of anyone else getting the update OTA? The version number being 4.0.3 710RD does seem to sound different than other versions I've seen.
Thanks,

I went the RUU route and rerooted my phone to remove all of the bloat. To be quite honest I like it a bit more than gingerbread simply because it boots faster and manages the ram more efficiently. While the transitions between flipping through the sense pages is smooth, the touchscreen feels a bit "sluggish" compared to gingerbread. Sometimes it's downright not responsive and it takes an extra swipe to register my action. It might be an isolated event on my end but if it's not I'm just giving a heads up. Sense 3.5 runs well and it's still too soon to tell for battery life. I'll edit this post in a week after I give the rom some time to settle and get used to ICS a bit more.

I just checked and no. Now that you mention it I do remember a scrolling image but I can't remember the circumstances around it. Maybe it was a live wallpaper.
This seems to be the final test version sent to the carrier for approval. The official release is likely a couple of weeks away because it takes carriers about two weeks to sign off on it, unless they find something to change.

I can't believe this, I left for a bit, went back to my xperia play.
put together a quick theme for my xperia play (it's so much easier to theme, it's already blue).
Then came back with my raider/vivid ready to work (xperia play is my daily now) and looks like pirategohst left, wildchild left. I'm so sad.
I was so ready to move from VJraiders rom to Pirategohost rom. but if development is dead why bother.
One thing i can say, this phone seems to not get much work on it like other devices, I have an xperia x1 (i know it's old), xperia x10, xperia play, htc evo 3d and all those devices are worked on daily. I know the raider is the newest device but....
Well enough with that, time to put to rest my raider and play with my evo 3d and play. all i need now is sony to release the xperia s and I'll be good.
Hey wildchild and pirateghost sad to see you leave and hope all is well, take care.
BYE BYE raider.
PM me if you want to make me an offer for my raider, it's from rogers.
Sad is right... I was about to buy a Raider/Vivid... But it looks as though the entire Dev community has decided to pull support... No sources, no links, no ROMS aside from Cyanogen and shipped?!?!
Sad scary day, I'll look around for XDA alternatives, but this makes me fairly upset, I've got a couple other androids at home, and there's a fair share of fighting on dev, but in the end it's about making a GOOD ROM, for yourself, and sharing it with a community... I can't fathom the flame wars that started in this forum.
Oh well, I'll wait for the HTC One series LOL
This was already a small dev community, and then the fact that a bunch of people wouldn't listen and bother taking the effort to try and read and really understand what they were doing meant they screwed up a very expensive device.
Oh well, everyone is already off to the One series.

If i change the xml's in framework res it makes sense crash after the first boot. this is what caused me to set my xperia play back up, I need a daily phone.
then i was going to try and fix what was causing the issue. i needed to be able to flash and reflash each time i mod the apk's.
Funny thing is, my raider is the fastest phone i have right now and the more i use my xperia play i really miss the speed of a dual core cpu.

I use the apk in your rom, then run it in apktools, then recompile with no errors.
I did not have an issue with version 2 of you rom.
But just to be clear, the apk's i theme are all from your rom, thats why they wouldn't work in any other rom.
They're all around if you know where to look. WC is on his own site, and I saw Pghost post on that site about obtaining and possibly porting the Endeavor RUU. Cm9 development is paused until we get kernel sources from HTC, so not all is lost. It just requires patience.

I really don’t care what happens to the Vivid anymore since the HTC One X and the Galaxy SIII should be out in a month or two. I’m sure those two beasts will have a ton of developer support. I guess next time I’ll make sure to get a more popular phone even though I think the Vivid is one of the best LTE phones that AT&T has.
I love how HTC used to get so much **** for having a laggy UI with Sense. I was one of those who kind of hated on Sense and really dissed it. Now I have noticed TouchWiz has become the Sense of old. Bulky, laggy, and way too big for its own good. Kind of funny how the two companies have done a reversal. I used to purchase Samsung devices just to avoid the lag of Sense and other UIs. Every video review I have watched, the reviewer has complained of lag on the S4. For once I will actually stay with an HTC device until my next contract renewal. I feel it was done right. One thing that isnt fair though is that nobody seems to be giving Samsung the hard time HTC got about their overbloated UI overlay. What gives?
Oh, and the classic "The reviewer or people posting negative reviews and comments about the GS4 are paid by HTC" wtf, really? If someone doesnt like Samsung products they are assumed to be crazy and must be getting "paid off" to post negative comments? That's really unfair and childish of them to say. Anyone else noticing unfair biases?

I noticed that as well. Sense 5 is smooth, man. I haven't had any lag, outside of me messing with governors and such, and I've read several reviews that say Touchwiz is kindof laggy. People aren't going to give Sammy any **** though because they are the top dog. While I'm glad they are android (for now) they are in the position that Apple was not long ago...nothing they can do is wrong even if it is. It's a little annoying

the only thing that seems odd to me in Sense 5 has been the lock screen..It kind of looks like its not meant for the current state it is in..It looks like it's set up and preparing for Android 4.2.1-2..Looks like they are preparing for lock screen widgets and I cant wait!

agreed, the only thing i want in sense is quick toggles! i used them all the time on my GS2. Luckily the mod is already out for this. That and the MMS compression fix. Other than that its pretty impressive out of the box.
But yea when will we start seeing AOSP stuff? I know the phone is only out for a wk or two but I'm looking forward to seeing the development section start to fill up.

I believe there are people working behind the scenes on some AOSP stuff. One problem would be the new SoC Snapdragon 600. I don't think there is a reference device running android on this platform yet.
I'm really diggin sense 5 in general. Blinkfeed is awesome.. I always had a currents widget on my furthest left screen anyways.
One thing I dislike. Is that the app drawer still scrolls gingerbread style. I'd like it to be paginated.
And as for quick toggles like i've seen in a few posts. We don't want quick toggles! we just want the 4.2 update. Then it should be pull down on left 3/4 for notifications. Or the right 1/4 for the toggles that are just built into android now. The quick toggles of the past are pretty ugly in comparison.

I guess by paginated you mean horizontal scroll instead of vertical. I too find this odd as Sense 4.0, 4.1, and 4+ all had horizontal app drawers.
I also like this, but what I have done is make folders and put the apps in there so I only have one page.

But yea when will we start seeing AOSP stuff? I know the phone is only out for a wk or two but I'm looking forward to seeing the development section start to fill up.

Used to have it in Sense before it was even an Android thing. Best part of my EVO 3D.
This is the first phone I can say I may not even want to put an AOSP rom on.
Why don't the do landscape Rosie for Christ's sake?

I guess by paginated you mean horizontal scroll instead of vertical. I too find this odd as Sense 4.0, 4.1, and 4+ all had horizontal app drawers.
I also like this, but what I have done is make folders and put the apps in there so I only have one page.

The folders in the app drawer has been something I really like that I wouldn't have thought I would. Now I am down to 3 homepages instead of 5 or 7. Would be nice if they could hold more apps per folder but it still makes my app drawer so nicely organized.

Because eww.... No matter how cool it is, widgets and stuff just do not align very pretty. Surely you will get your fix with a custom rom.

What's up man.. Yeah the tower down by froggers on rock springs road has some descent reach but it dies off right in front of my house.. When they light up this boom tower behind OK Tires I think we will be set around here.
