I don't feel ICS is worth it yet. Too many incompatible apps that will not launch or start at all in ICS or crashes.
I have not yet found a single app that I use that doesn't function.
I've heard something about Instagram that doesn't work on our ICS Sense 3.6 leak, but I don't use that.
And I haven't seen anyone else making posts like this, so the issue lies with your own device I believe.
Try doing a superwipe and then a fresh install, and not reinstalling apps through various backup apps (Like Titanium Backup, MyBackup, etc) as that can sometimes cause issues like the ones you're describing.

Your own opinion. None of my apps have failed to start up or work correctly when using ICS.
Maybe post what apps you are saying are incompatible?
What apps are you talking about? My Transformer Prime on ICS has tons of apps and games....haven't run into many issues.

You want to indulge us on some of these apps?
My SD card is filled with apps. 32GB, almost completely full... with apps.
Not music, or videos or pictures, but apps.
I have yet to find one that either doesn't start or simply force-closes in ICS that didn't already screw up in Gingerbread.

There's some but not many... I happen to know of one, the MMA Underground app, which is a paid app and it won't even let me download it from market because it's 'incompatible'.

There are "incompatible" apps that won't download (app makers fault for not updating) but will still run on ICS with no issues. At Bat 12 paid app will not download because it says it is incompatible, but I restored from my Titanium Backup from my GB ROM and it runs just fine.
Since i've upgraded, i had some problem with swype and i lost my favorite "whip" app... that is a mess

Every one of my apps works perfectly fine on ICS, except for iHeartRadio. It starts up and runs fine, but it likes to just close out every once in a while, either while I'm listening to it or when I have it paused for a while.
Hulu Plus is my only issue.
When I flashed 4.0.3, I did so with CF root 5.3. This caused me tons of issues with apps (12 vanished and would not let me reinstall). After flashing CF root 5.4, the problem went away. So, probably most issues are related to how you root the device (if you did so).
Like I said in my previous post, only Flext9 crashes/freezes and can't be used. Too bad because someone recommended this keyboard to me and I wanted to test it.
Cheers
Maybe he's talking about apps that come with carrier ROMs. Or ROM specific system apps. This is just a troll.

It freezes, skips songs, pauses and just plain stops if they turn their phone on. I work with both guys and both are having the same exact problems. They're both rooted, one has stock rom, the other has a custom rom ( forget the name of the custom rom... eclipse maybe).

The common problem about music is it constantly skips and stutters all the time.
have they tried clearing data for the apps? I know doing that helps with problem apps sometimes especially if flashing roms. Did they also try uninstall and reinstalling the app?
I don't use either of those but I have before but never had them just shutoff on me.

I know slacker came reinstalled and unable to uninstall but if running eclipse they most likely got slacker from market. If its one of newer eclipse that is. Hope this helps ya co-worker out. Im kinda shooting at the moon but it is a main troubleshooting process I and others use for stubborn apps. I have to do it all the time for market cuzI think google screwed their newest version up. Clearing and uninstall market updates always makes it work for me
I use Pandora a lot and had the same issues with it skipping in the middle of the song, which drove me crazy. I found a fix that has made me happy with Pandora again. But, there's bad news. The "fix" is a hacked version (gives you unlimited skips and removes ads), so I can't exactly link you to it. I don't like that I'm having to use a hacked version, BUT I don't exactly feel bad about it, because I'm just doing what it takes to get the app to do its basic job.
(Regarding Slacker: I don't use it, so I removed it.)

I've been having problems with pandora myself. Once I open it, Pandora will log me in, and then I get the music dialog but nothing will play over 3G (didn't test from WiFi, but then again I don't need it from WiFi). Not a huge deal because I have a 32GB MicroSD, but still annoying so I removed it.
(The install for pandora was clean, did not back it up)
They have that issue ^^^^^^

hmmm...thought the music skipping issue was fixed with the GB update for the X2....
anyways...am using Eclipse v7 RC and i have no problems streaming Pandora via 3g or wifi...so since they are rooted, maybe you should try this rom(if nothing else works)...its REALLY smooth...much better than stock...
If you are on the official honeycomb update, could you please confirm which apps do not work properly. What about gameloft ones, they are notorious for the compatibility.
Asphalt 6 works great on rooted WiFi flyer with the latest honeycomb release
Only one I have a problem with out of my usual ones (list too big) is BBC iPlayer, and that just seems to be down to BBC themselves not adding the HC Flyer on the compatibility list yet.
I have noticed the lack of the old Google News and Weather app but found that in the forum after a quick search http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695349. It also works fine.
Edit: I have noticed that Google Earth has problems. The lower buttons for Look around and Zoom controls are missing, presumably under the new bottom bar! This is probably due to the same problem as in the PocketCloud thread, however they are fixing PocketCloud in next update.
ive found all my "borrowed" gameloft games have been removed by hc drm ,all worked flawlessly on gb.
bit o a bummer,dunno anyway to get round it just yet.
dont seem to be able to buy anything on market,just keeps saying update my cc details and voids the sale.
nothing wrong with my payment details tho.maybe they dont like uk anymore.
the builtin market with the official hc update doesnt seem to find much for the flyer and yet when using ffox,opera etc to go direct to market all the top stuff is there to see.
bit confuddled by it at the moment,wait for a way to root it n go from there i guess.
Couple of app incompatabilities
So far ive found a couple of issues with apps on my honeycomb flyer compared to my honeycomb galaxy tab 8.9.
ADW Launcher EX (see attached image)
1. The app drawer button that should be in the upper left is missing
2. the buttons on the top right for search, add widgets, wallpaper, etc are missing
3. The main app dock does not rotate to bottom of the screen in landscape mode
Astro File Manager
1. App menu bar at the top of the screen is missing, looks almost like its been pushed off the top because of resolution rather than scaling
Im sure there are more, but those are the apps i tend to use the most that are not stock htc apps.
Anyone have any ideas on the ADW launcher issues? i would really like to use that one because of the dock (really miss the persistent shortcuts on every screen like the flyer GB sense had)
Oops, this didn't come up in my search. I started one too, sorry

You have not done much research before throwing these out there. You can't just install the old app from a GB backup...,
just off the top of my head:
dolphin, weatherbug and swiftkey have tablet version , work on the HC flyer
dropbox, pulse, read it later, ebay and twitter works on the HC flyer
I run these on my HC flyer so your report that they don't work is incorrect
Perhaps you have not done a proper install of HC or the apps.
thanks for the update. When I first saw that there was a update available, I wondered if it was real... I got one that was fake a few weeks ago and nearly bricked my flyer.
Then...in the.notes for the updates I didnt see anything to tell me that I needed to uninstall anything. Perhaps it is a well known thing that you have to do that.

If you are going from GB to HC all of your apps should have been wiped. Don't try to reinstall from a Titanium backup of GB , that will cause all sorts of havoc on your HC , just install apps from the market fresh.

AVG? really? The reason they don't update it is that there are virtually no viruses out there and it really useless unless you are downloaded black market garbage.
Yep. But it's not just an antivirus app. It has app backup functionality. Also scans for spam texts, safe search on web, & a phone locator. I used AVG because I use it on my laptop. I prefer pro versions of any app, even if its just to remove ads.

i had the same issues on Eclipse 1.3. i reverted back to stock rooted 2.3.4. i haven't flashed a new custom rom because of this reason. i'll follow this thread to see if there are any solutions.
I couldn't get YouTube to play yesterday on 3G. I haven't tried wifi yet to see if it's just my 3G signal or what.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
I just watched a video I posted on YouTube over 3g and it worked just fine. Mind you, I didn't watch it in HQ mode since it was over 3g, but no jumping, skipping, etc. Worked just fine.
As for games, sometimes they pause, but not always. Overall, I'm getting better performance out of CM7 than I have out of any other ROM, stock or custom.
GTA 3 plays beutifully just like on Eclipse 2.0.1
One thing I have noticed when I ran Smartbench 2011 is that my Productivity and Gaming indexes dropped going from CM7 Alpha to CM7 Beta.
On Alpha (with the extra core constantly on), this is what I had:
Productivity: 3395
Gaming: 2581
After going to CM7 Beta, this is what I have:
Productivity: 1776 avg.
Gaming: 2383 avg.
I then launched system tuner pro and noticed that only 1 cpu was on. But, it appears as if the 2nd core never comes on, at least from what I can tell. If I tell System Tuner Pro to enable both cores and run my benchmarks, I notice that I get back the scores I had before.
Now, I have noticed a slight drop-off in games at times. My question is, is there a way I can monitor if the 2nd core ever comes on when it's needed? Is there an app I can run to monitor this and then I can see if/when the 2nd core came on and at what frequency it ran? Heck, are the any logs I can look at?
Just curious.
Also, one thing I have noticed. If I mess with the Memory Auto-kill settings (such as with V6 Scripts), I notice games get a lot laggier, especially Fruit Ninja. If I leave them at the default settings CM7 comes with, the games perform a lot better.
Thanks!

I just went to YouTube via the stock browser and the video played just fine over 3g. I also went to FoxNews to try and stream a video there and it worked just fine under CM7 Beta.
You DO have Flash installed, right? Just making sure! I know on my phone I have both Adobe Flash and Adobe AIR installed.
I had AIR installed and had to install flash player on this rom just to get any bids to show up in the browser...never had to on any other rom or stock. I might just reflash the rom and go from there...otherwise its back to eclipse til the next cm7 update

That's because the CM7 doesn't come with everything installed. It's a bare-bones ROM where as the other ROMS, including stock, include the Adobe stuff in it.
Like I said, I have it all installed and YouTube and other flash-sites show up just fine in my browser without any issues. The sound is fine, the video is fine, no choppiness in them at all and that was over 3g.
Ok thanks. So at least I know that its not the rom. Ill have to try something. Clearing the data on apps fixed most of the force closing issues but nothing has fixed the video issues yet. Unless its the theme or another app in the background interferring.. scratching my head on this one

Anyone else having issues with the new Google Play Market? Literally every app I open up reads as incompatible with my device. Is this the case for anyone else? I'm currently on Vegan Froyo... is this just an issue for this ROM, or is it with all roms? Personally its becoming incredibly frustrating; many of my existing apps don't update, I'm forced to scour the dark ends of the internet for apks of paid apps I already own.
I tried the Market fix.. but that seems to have made issues worse. Any hope??

What is "ro.product.device=" in your /system/build.prop ?
A bad value/corruption there can cause incompatible messages.
I am on TNT Lite, which a Froyo distribution, and Google Play
works without any problems.
This is when an old CWM backup might have helped. Do you have any around?
My latest magic bullet for Froyo is "Fix Permissions" from CWM.
Give it a shot if all else fails.

I also am having a ton of issues with the new and "improved" google experience... the playstore will not load at all on my gtablet. I am running gtabcombover and really like the ROM... it was flawless until the market went stupid on us.
as soon as i try to open the app, i get the "accept" button but before I can even push it, the thing FC's and no matter what I cant make it even initialize. I am really hoping there is a painless and simple fix for this mess. And even more hoping that google hasnt completely cut all rooted devices out of the loop!
any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
I'm having the same problem as the OP, except I'm using Roebeet's TnT Lite Froyo ROM. I've also tried the Market fix with no luck. Any ideas for solving the problem would be appreciated.
Every app that needs to be updated comes back with a "incompatible with your device" error. Market fix didn't make things worse for me, just didn't help much. I'll have more time for experimenting over the weekend, and, will post if I find an answer. Hopefully it's not due to Google Play seeing it as being a rooted device.
It's probably not because the device is rooted. I am running G-harmony and play works fine for me.
Google Market updated itself to the Google Play store without any problem on both VEGAn-TAB 7.1 and GtabCombOver 3.4.2. I was also able to update all of my apps as usual.
I'm using cm7 rc1 and market is hosed. I have tons of paid apps that are "incompatible" and wont update. I tried build.prop edits but nothing is working. If VeganTAB 7 is working I may switch back to it. Was using beastys rom and Google play made it so half my apps wouldn't update that's why I tried cm7.
Update:
VeganTAB 7 works great with Google play and all my apps updated.

If you know how to edit the build.prop you could try to edit the line for the manufacturer replace what's there with Samsung just remember to make a note of what was there to start. It worked for me but I'm on the DRH ice rom you you may not see it in the overall search but in you put in the name of the app you want it should come up and allow you to download n install.

This is apparently expected behavior at this point. If you have less running in the background, it won't happen. If you reboot, you should see it stop until you've got too much going on.
I have had good success messing with the performance settings and ultimately using the "V6 Supercharger" with this rom. The lock screen is much more reliable for me now. Do a search for it in all forums and I'm sure you'll find the thread.

Okay, I'll re-flash and apply the add-ons to see if it'll work.

What DPI setting are you currently using? I have seen a lot of fixes when using a 160 DPI and are you using the latest version 1.4.2 with the addon's that have to be loaded up after initial install?

I am using the latest, just downloaded it today, barebones version. I just installed the GHarmony JB ROM and it had the same problem. I then went back to the GHarmony ICS I was using previously and tasker install was fine. I tried to take the build fingerprint out of the build.prop from HarmonyICS and apply it after installing Smoothbean and run market fix and still can't load tasker.
ro.build.fingerprint=asus/WW epad/EeePad.4.0.3/IML74K/WW epad-9.4.2.21-20120323:user/release-keys
It looks like the GHarmony ICS rom which works was 120dpi, and I am running 120dpi on smoothbean...
I may just have to load the ICS rom and try and backup the apk, reload jb and install...
Do others using this ROM have tasker installed? It may be that I am doing something wrong with the market fix, it seems like there are several versions of the instructions out there..

Okay, doing that helped with the games. However, some apps still don't work. For example, the weather app, Eye in Sky, shows up in the Play Store as incompatible with the device, so I tried to side-load it and it wouldn't install. It just says "app not installed." Should I change the build.prop?
Edit: I think my problem with Eye in Sky is the same as wuench's problem with Tasker.
You guys might want to think that it is the app and not the ROM. The same thing happened when ICS Started out with HBO GO for me. Not all apps have been converted to work on the Jellybean framework. They may seem almost the same at most points, but since I just ripped through a crap load of HTML files and smail files as well. They are quiet different. I am sorry that those particular apps will not work, but the best suggestion I can offer is contact the app developer. My current work is using a clone base of a Motorola Xoom which is widely supported in the Play Store Market. When it come available for compatibility then it will work, trust me.

Yeah, I don't know what it could be. Eye in Sky works with Dirty Bean. It shows up in the Play Store and it can be side-loaded for that ROM. Oh well, it's not the only weather app. It has a nice UI, though.
Well, tasker will not install from the backup. I found the developers website and downloaded the apk directly, that install failed as well. I found a reference in their forum about needing the maps library installed, I was going to check the logs for errors but I can't find a log viewer application that works on Jelly Bean ATM. It sounds like some permissions were changed for log viewing and a lot of the apps need to be updated.
It seems like a really great ROM, these app issues are the only things I have noticed. I think you are right, these developers just haven't had time to support JB yet...

Ok, looks like Tasker installs ok on BlAcK_jElLyBeAn CM10 4.1.1. Maybe all it needs are GApps? Does anyone know where to get that as a package? I tried installing Google Maps on Smoothbean and that didn't help....
Like i stated in other reply. Framework res difference. Black Jellybean is a 4.1.1 vs. Smoother Bean is 4.1.2. Black Jellybean is using team DRH as a base that's why it works.

The apps work on my Motorola Xoom running stock 4.1.2.
Yes it does but you cannot run this framework.res from this device to another device. Each device has a different framework-res configuration. There is a lot of changes that need to be done and since I am still considered a novice dev. I am learning the different things to do with the ROM in order for it to work.
