first thing, this wont brick your device (0% chance)
what i have done is patched the services.jar to allow more apps to stay in memory (up to 8 i think)
ive been using it and so far my browser have not reloaded once, only when i load up over 8 apps at the same time
this means your phone will have less available memory, but its being put to good use, since its not being used anyway lol
the main change ive noticed so far is improvement in the browser, way less reloads.
i need a couple people to flash this and report your findings
it also makes your phone UI a bit faster as well. lemme know. maybe its a placebo for me, which i hope im wrong
flash away

Another note is Mikey mentioned he fixed MeanROM on the previous base to have a higher OOM priority (lower number) for the browser, gapps, and other stuff so they wouldn't get killed so easily.
Any thoughts on doing the same thing also? I have no idea if Auto Memory Manager works on ICS, that allows you to modify the OOM priority for specific apps.

Testing now.. Hey flex I'm loving stock w/ goodies but I'm a noob and can't post in development yet. Am I the only one have issues adding a card in google wallet and gTalk won't log in correctly. You're the man by the way.
there is also a script the zeppelinx is working on the deletes the time when android is suppose to kill apps. it is in the v6 superccharger thread.
I was able to go about 8 apps deep before it killed sky fire. I got about 5 with the tweak in the other thread.

Do you need to be on the deodoxed rom to flash this. Also I'm on 2.13 htvdev unlocked with no desire to s-off, will this mod cause some sort of discrepancy in build that will stop me from being able to apply future ota updates.

I went back to gb. That leak was real bad. Lots of freezing and little issues. Don't say its my device, because i have 2 and both had a lot of the same little issues. The only thing i miss is mms pics being zoomable.
I hated the keyboard and some other Stuff
To me it felt more like a screwed up no good custom Rom by a rookie

I can 3rd this. Its running with zero problems on my device, both A1 and A2 of DaGr8's ROM. It could have been the method you used to flash the ROM, or some of the programs you possibly backed up, but for me i have had zero reboots, only one FC on Touchwiz which i don't use anymore, and no other glitches.
i switched back to GB too, ICS was almost perfect, only Navigon and tether not working (unless paying $50 to ATT).
I miss ICS, fell much smoother than GB, will switch back when we have more steady ROM.
I'm using Alpha II on both mine and my wife's - no issues. As for the keyboard, I'm using the latest Swiftkey 3 Tablet beta.
Out of the number of already active threads on the subject you needed your own?

i used the self installing exe rom. The original leak, not a custom rom. I dont want a custom rom either.
I didnt install any backups. I have all the apk's and use appmonster to install them all.
in mms the send and attach buttons where switched and my wife *****ed cause she kept hitting the attach button when she was trying to send.
I dont want a custom rom. If the self installing exe leak rom might be the problem, what other way can it be flashed? Only other thing i did was flash recovery and install SU
If you're having problems most people would say install fresh and DO NOT use a program to restore apps, download them one by one thru the app store.

yeah no kidding. I just said i install all my apps from apk's. Appmoster only starts the apk install one after another. it doesnt install them for you and its not backups.... its apk's
Another thing was the appliction monitor was always turning red just from having something as simple as web browser openned. The memory management seemed to be horable.
Im trying to locate another way to install, maybe odin or something.
It's too bad your against trying any custom roms. For one they get rid of all that at&t stuff you possibly never use; By doing that extra memory is freed up in the process. I didn't have that many issues when I flashed the self installing leak, but I decided to go with DAGR8's Alpha 2, it's faster than the stock leak was. Every time I re-flash a phone, I re-install everything from market, I don't backup anything. It doesn't take that long to type in my user / password and have everything synced back from the market anyway.

that must be it. Like i said, ics leak is crap. its only good if you take and screw and tweak it.
its gonna be real sad when att pushes ota ics update. the phone is going to become a joke in the eyes of regular people who dont mess with these things
I'm running the leak as is, with no mods or root or anything, and it is ****in' fabulous. Aside from the known issue of the TW launcher initially crashing once or twice, it has been pretty much flawless.

You must already be on GB and have recovery installed. If you are on HC you must follow the directions in the forum on how to downgrade to GB
Use kevinrocksman's awesome tool to get to HC from GB(or downgrade from HC to GB, and many other convenient tools). He makes it easy for you

Issues
You tell me.. test and let me know what's jacked up
When going through setup wizard and trying to select time zone it will FC. This is because the radios are disabled and it uses them to auto set your time zone. Just keep pressing next through set up and once it's finished you can go into settings and change it.
Maps might force close once or twice until you set up wifi
I have included the KB from CM7 but the keys are pretty small so I also included the GB KB,, the keys are small as well but you can make them bigger in settings

A few people have PM'ed me asking about donating. Well, I dont/wont ever ask for donations and honestly I prefer to NOT get donations. I do this work first and for most for me(Yeah I'm a selfish bastard) so I can learn more, so I can make my device the way I want my device, I just decide to share what I make for myself instead of keeping it for myself (I'm selfish, not greedy) and I feel if people start donating they might get more demanding and feel more entitled so I'd rather just skip all of that potential drama. When it comes to requesting things in this rom, I will put them in IF it's something I would use myself. If it's not, then I most likely wont add it. So please dont donate to me, If you want to do some good instead of donating to me, donate to a worthy charity instead! Thank you all for using my rom!

So while I have the rom deodexing(it takes a while) I've been playing with the stock rom, deleteing crap and seeing what will break, also trying to add in some AOSP elements... that way when it is deodexing then I know exactly what I can remove and/or replace
removed a ****load of bloat and useless htc apps
rosie is gone, all the rosie widgets are gone, I have the free version of ADW, Stock GB browser and 3D Gallery all working, the stock calculator is working, GB KB included, The stock Calendar, contacts, camera or mms didnt work but I can try to tinker with them later
but the biggest one so far is I got rid of the Sense lock screen and have the stock GB one So much easier to do on GB than HC!

I asked the guy who did the Flyer CM rom to throw us Viewers a bone and port his Flyer version to the View. He said he might make it a weekend project but not promising anything.
If interested run over to his thread and pm the dev (very nicely) that you heard a rumor he might consider doing a View port and you just wanted to support the idea.
Maybe a little future fan influence will motivate him

Sounds great I may hold off on testing until it's done. Just hard bricked my E4GT this morning and I'm a bit gun shy.
Never hard bricked a phone before. Accidentally flashed an AOSP ICS rom over an ICS kernel. Apparently this is huge no no. Complete blue light of death hard brick. Thank god for insurance.
Just installed. Testing now. I'll edit in problems as necessary.
First thing I noticed is that the Setup Wizard force closes if I try to change the time settings. I can change the time settings just fine through the regular settings, though.
The keyboard wouldn't pop up at first for whatever reason. A reboot fixed it, though.
In the settings, the right side of the check boxes are cut off.
Also, the mobile signal level icon still shows up, even though I downloaded the WiFi only ROM. I'm guessing this is just an issue with theming for now, though.

Agreed. So far, it's definitely smooth, and just has those minor issues. I think this will do just fine until we get ICS (though I'll go over to an AOSP GB ROM if we get one). I like it better than Honeycomb already, even if it is an older system.

My battery life seems tons better than it was before. But who knows, maybe I had some crappy rom that said it was using a single core but it was really wasting battery by enabling the second one at all times.
All I know is I was reading on my phone for about an hour this morning and it was still at 92%.
Other than that, I'm pretty surprised with how well it's running. Sense 3.6 is ok, a little jarring to see some of the sense colors go out of the way for real ICS stuff (like when you're attaching a google account).
One thing I don't like is how they ruined the default app behavior. Before if you clicked a link from a twitter app, it asked what application to use. That's ok, you can change that particular thing from the default apps settings (and ICS Browser + destroys the default Sense browser), but if I'm in an email and I click a twitter name, it just goes straight to the browser. Previously it popped up a menu for a browser or twitter apps, and I'd rather have it go right to the app.
I'm a little disappointed that the Car Panel isn't there (Well, it is kinda. When I plug it into my car dock, the icon shows up in the bar, but there's no Car Panel App or anything). Other than that, the desktop dock mode is nice with the added music player feature. Everything runs smooth, and I definitely like the swipe feature in the drop down menu and task killer.
Adding the performance tweak has made this thing fly..sacrifice just a little battery but its worth it.

I tried this ROM this afternoon,

Camera: 5M*2
hboot: HTC *** UNLOCKED METHOD ***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.49.0018
Oct 3 2011 15:03:01
First, I extracted the boot.img from the archive and I flashed with the option of EXT Recovery.
I rebooted in recovery (4EXT v1.0.0.5 RC3 Build 102)
I Wiped data, system, CACHE, Dalvik-Cache
Then I flashed the ROM and then reboots Virtuous_Shooter_v.3.0.0.zip
I tested:
Bluetooth OK (associated with a headset MOTOROLA)
Phone OK (not stop during a call)
Wifi OK
2D and 3D camera OK
Spiderman 3D OK!
I realized that the ROM was not rooted. So I flashed in Recovery mode, Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip. ROOT is ok now.
When configuring the phone, I took the backup on Google. All my applications were then restored.
I restored the data from each application with Titanium Backup.
I think we would finally an ICS ROM from which The developer will be able to build their new ROM.
It's really good. thank you to Virtuous Dev Team: Diamondback, Flemmard, seo, rmk, chrisch1974, eViL_Dee, mdj, cypis, cjward, tbalden
Thank to Mdeejay!!!
Sincerely,

The Gmail app isn't new in the update(just the icon), and it's always been white since the beginning of time... A lot of ROM developers and themers have made different color variants, though, with the most popular being the 'Inverted Gmail' which is probably what you got used to using.
My experience with the ICS leak was good and bad. I like all the changes to UI, but some of the stuff was buggy at times. First, it took a few reboots/battery pulls after flashing to even boot into the ROM for the first time. I have Sprint VM saved on SD, and after installing it, it didn't work. Cache cleaner app was non-responsive. I'd go to clean the cache and it would sit there for several minutes 'cleaning' until I just gave up. I restarted the phone once and when I went back to open my text messages, all I saw were phone numbers(instead of contact names) for a few minutes until I turned on Wifi and everything sync'd again.... just a few things I can remember right off-hand. I'll probably just wait until we at least have a 'Sprint Leak' to go back again. I'm sure the OTA isn't too far away anyway..

Actually gmail does update for ICS and only for ICS. It is completely different from the gingerbread version it takes some time to get use too but the end result is I kind of like it.
I love the release but I just wish the app drawer was side to side instead of top and down.
Hi...I'm new to the world of rooting and such...I rooted my Thunderbolt last week using the one-click program (found from different thread on XDA)...Now, I would like to install a more current rom since ICS is still not available. Also, I would like to improve this phone's perforrmace (I know it can do more).
There are a lot of different rom's at there and I am looking for something stable and does not cause any loss of phone features(very important)...The sense interface is nice, but I do not know what else people are using. If possilbe, something that is not an all day affair to download, setup and so-on.
Please give me some thoughts (I know this is very subjective, but most of you will have better insight that I do about what will work and the level of difficulty to set-up).
Also what happens to the phone when future updates are released from either HTC or Verizon??
My phone is Sense 2.1, Gingerbread 2.3.4 and Software(Radio??): 2.11.605.19710RD.
Also, will I have to worry about things like different kernels or radio upgrades??
I appreciate everyone's input in advance and I know there will be many thoughts.

HTC finished our ics build and we are now waiting on Verizon to decide whether or not to push the ota. If you're looking for a stable rom and everything works then try thundershed 1.6 or any rom with that as a base. They are all very good roms. I personally prefer sfkcm7.2. As for ics liquid ics is really very good and most of the issue with it are minimal. If a working camcorder is a must then its not for you.

Thank you for the information...can you reply with download links and screens shots for these rom's??
Also, can you help me understand what steps I will have to follow for this to work correctly?? Meaning additional software, formatting etc. so everything is working afterwards.
The Liquid ICS I think I will stay away from for now...What will happen when OTA updates are sent??
Sidebar: Currently, my Standalone GPS Services icon is constantly flashing in the toolbar and draining the battery...only way around is to manually toggle off & on the service...This started after I ran v6 supercharger script...Did I do something wrong or does this script not work well with the Thunderbolt??
Thanks again,

The only thing I would suggest that you download is 4ext recovery. There is a thread for it in the development forums. It will replace clockworkmod recovery with 4ext recovery and it is all touch screen. You can buy the full version from the market and I will say it is worth the money. If you dint have titanium backup that is another that you should download. You can get a free version from the market. Don't worry about otas once you flash an aosp rom. That has been disabled in the rom to prevent bad things from happening. Most sense based roms have it removed to but if you get the notification then postpone it as long as possible and Google how to disable it. I know the name of the file that needs to be renamed I just don't remember exactly where it is located.

Agree with the Thundershed recommendation. It has been more stable than the stock phone with with better performance and way better battery life. Everything works including the wifi hot spot.

Thundershed is great and all the roms based off it are good too.

This is based on the ROM joelZ9614 posted on June 27th.
It's deodexed and stripped of most Verizon apps and some HTC apps while keeping Sense.
This is different than the original release I had planned. This is close to the version I use since joelsZ9614's is coming.
This is PURE HTC stock. There's no themes, no EQS and little tweaks.
Xposed installer is included, use the MoDoCo ToolKit and other XPosed apps to make some of the usual mods.
Everything is working(?) but Zoe and Panoramic sweep.
This is VERIZON ONLY. It's been reported that MMS does not work with GSM.
Here's a few flashable additions: to the ROM:
HTC Music
HTC Calender
xLOUD
There's is now some tweaks included that I've tested but my init.d didn't make all the changes.
Recommend Trickster Mod Settings are:
Read Ahead Buffer Size: 384 (seems high but benchmarks the highest)
Deadline
fifo_batch: 8
front_merges: 1
read_expire: 30
write_expire: 250
writes_starved: 1
Conservative
down_threshold: 30
freq_step: 25
sampling_down_factor: 5
up_threshold: 60
Multicore Power Saving: 2
ALL thanks go to joelZ9614 for the ROM, crpalmer for the kernel, and zepplinrox for the supercharging.

*There's been some cleaning inside the ROM. A wipe is NOT necessary, but if coming from the first ROM I posted, but I'd recommend formatting /system.
*This version also has less apps stripped since people seem to like apps I don't use.

More vaporware for the DNA!
It's a stripped version of the ROM Joel posted last week.
I deodexed, and got it to flash. His is coming soon so I pulled the link. If he gives permission I'll gladly post
for people wanting to give it a go.
Verizon and a lot of HTC apps are removed while still keeping Sense.
Mirrors or hosting will be helpful before hand.

All credit goes to joelZ9614 and crpalmer. They've done the work and it's hard.
This is PURE HTC stock. Been using this for a couple days, everything is working but Zoe and Panoramic sweep.
Xposed installer is included, the MoDoCo ToolKit takes care of some of the usual mods.
With all that said here's the link: http://goo.gl/akLyz
If you like it and can mirror please do as i'm not a developer and this is the best hosting I could come up with without ads.
This has been a learning experience.
Developers should get more credit than they get. This stuff is hard, and even uploading is major hassle.

It's basically Sense 5 rom, nothing out of the ordinary, you can look at any other sense 5 rom's screen shot - it would be the same
What about smoothness and responsiveness? I can't use newt's sense 5 rom because it makes my phone feel extremely clunky..
Apparently I can't post a link. Don't know if I could put images in.
But as nimrodsv said it's pure. No theming at all.
I had no problem with newtoroot's ROM being laggy.
But it's been running well for me without any kernel tweaking yet.

I had the same feelings until I used Beaups kernel. No issues now. Actually running very smooth and excellent battery life.

I keep seeing posts where people say that the newt Rom is laggy. Ive been running it for about 2 weeks now and just flashed beaups kernal the other day but even before flashing that kernal I had zero issues with lag. In fact, I have not had a single issue at all since flashing this Rom. That's pre beaups kernal and post. Did I just get lucky somehow with a fluke flash that turned out to be beneficial? Am I the only person that has not experienced any lag?

Every phone is different. My phone hates overlclocking. If I run my phone over 1600 it reboots. No matter what kernel it is. So, maybe it is laggy on his phone.

Don't try the Tablet ui . Obviously Sense lacks a tablet ui and bad things happen.

This is the truth.. We all have the same hardware.. but there could be very subtle differences in something that could cause some of us to lag and others not.. Ran into the same issues when I had my Incredible 2 .. I was flawless with every rom, 99% of the time.. others weren't.. Just the way she goes..
at production, the CPU of the phone was labeled based on processing tolerances. there is slow, nominal, fast, and faster. each one reacts differently to OC and UV ect

Maybe try toggling airplane mode on and the back off.

Tried that. Also full wipe and clean install and still nothing. Never had this issue before.
