Very bored with the OS on my View 4G..
Any options for ICS? I need STABLE.. this is in my car as nav and multimedia, so it needs to be extremely stable.

I got tired of using gingerbread and wanted the USB Device Host feature so i can use my ps3 controller.
Installed Dexters Jellybean 1.7 , works great except, you cant make phone calls anymore.
3G works for web/ remote desktop, but once u call someone, theres no audio back and forth.
Gonna try a work around so i can use voip / call forwarding.

I believe the wired mic option works with Dex' build.
Hmm. Might have to check it out. Did you install on a View or Flyer?

No stable ics or jb rom? Not sure I agree with that statement. I recently installed YNC's CG rom, and it's been at least as stable as HTC's honeycomb build. Granted I haven't yet put the GPS or bluetooth through a good workout (both crucial to a setup in a car), but for everyday use around the house it has been rock solid.

There are still a few features yet to be implemented: front facing camera, usb otg, and a couple of others. So read the first post to see the full list of things that aren't yet functional. But if (like me) you don't ever use one of those features, this build is very good (and has been extremely stable for me). Here's the link:

Is the GB radio leak and a rom good enough for a stable daily driver. Also which rom would you recommend? I'm using the froyo based Bamf remix right now.
CM7
I'm running CM7 with the 223r radio. I don't know about the 2.0 GB radio. It is a bit of a process to get everything working on CM7 at this point. I had to flash twice just to get the GPS working. It was well worth it in my opinion. It was the only way that I know of to get BT wiimote working. I prefer AOSP over any manufactured UI. I do have a reboot a day or so. I get a GPS within a minute or so. I've had to re-apply the wifi fix once. So if you're a tinkerer or you don't mind flashing go for it.

The radio is the best thing that comes with the GB leak, IMHO. Signal is better for me.

Since you're running this rom, could you tell me if wireless tether works? I am currently on vacation and need to make sure that wireless tether works before installing a rom. Thanks.

Sorry to say I have not tried it, but what I have read that has more to do with the kernel. I would say load the rom then go and get this kernel.

Concur!! Everything with the GB radio so far has been excellent.
Gingeritis beta VII
Only issue is the stock messaging app has time stamp issues making them come in out of oorder. For me at least. Handcent doesn't have this issue.
Thanks for posting this thread! I had the same question, and thanks to all who replied.
I'm most probably gonna try out Gingeritis. Hopefully there aren't too many issues that prevents it from being my daily driver for sometime..
You can still get WiFi Tether in the Market.
Step 1.) Turn On Airplane Mode
Step 2.) Turn On WiFi
Step 3.) Go Into App Market and Search for "WiFI Tether"
Step 4.) Download and TADA!
It worked for me a few days ago.
Bamf GB has ben solid for me...known issue with the camera hack can lag but does the job for now
I've flashed das BAMF 2.0 betas 2,3, and 4.01 and the only hiccup I've had was one random reboot immediately after flashing beta 3. Everything that I use on a daily basis is fully functional. Unfortunately I'm not able to speak about wireless tether or blue tooth because I never use either of them. Also, I'm not in a 4g area, so I don't know about LTE functionality or 3g/4g transitions. I was very hesitant to flash a ROM based on the gingerbread leak, but team BAMF has really done a great job with an alpha leak. It is definitely stable for me and is my current daily driver, although I know there have been bugs experienced by other users. Lastly, I had been moving away from Sense with the froyo ROMs. I was very impressed with CM7 alpha test 4, and I was using Vanilla Bean 1.2.1 as my daily driver before the gingerbread leak. However, the new Sense 3.0 aspects of das BAMF 2.0 and a couple of the other gingerbread ROMs are great.
Gingeritis works awesome! I love the Sense 3.0 stuff, My speedtest.net almost doubled in my house... maybe it was an anomaly, but I ran the speedtest via the flash based website 3 times with the same results...
No, as of 5.25.11 jcase has informed the community that running the leaked Gingerbread radio could lead to a bricked device.

I'm running Gingeritis VIII and it's a daily. Runs great!
Is the ffc with yahoo and the like working?

It's all about what you want to deal with. Both the new GB leak and CM7 have bugs. If you can see past the bugs because you the functionality and features outweigh the bugs, then you would definitely want to use them as daily drivers. If, on the other hand, you want something a little bit more stable, you may wish to stick with a Froyo ROM. BAMF 1.6.3 for Froyo is excellent.
You'll also have to deal with missing functionality since it's new.
Kernel isn't stable (mainly an issue if you happen to want to adjust the voltage, etc), but you might get random reboots either way.
No direct internet connection sharing to your pc via usb (using your phone's connection for internet).
Many of the modifications have not been ported you would find in froyo roms or if they have, they're a work in progress (6 bar signal, battery icon).
GPS isn't quite as quick as it was due to the unstable nature of the leak.
Various other little things here and there that are missing/buggy like the camera not working entirely correct as it would in froyo.
If you want to be a beta tester/lab rat, feel free to flash
Das BAMF 2.0-4.01 and loving the sense 3.0 in it
for das bamf, un install htc sync and reinstall and the connection works perfectly again
Like the title says what do you recommend? I've bounced around a few and can't find one that's stable and has working bluetooth. Hybrid or some other easily custom DPI method is a plus.
Thanks.
I'd suggest reading through each forum. You said you've bounced around, you should know for yourself. Unfortunately, the current roms are the most stable, no BT for phone calls on any of them. If you want booth, JB isn't for you.

I would recommend the pa ics version. Rock solid and everything works.
Sent from my Note...where BIGGER is better!
ICS PA by Jamie June25th or JB PA by Jamie Sept 06 both are rock stable.
Ill go on record to say it honestly depends on the Bluetooth device!
I myself am using a Plantronics Voyager 855 (old i know) BT headset and it works just fine with FJ's "Jethro Bubba" beta Jelly Bean rom's (calls, music, notifications, whatever I throw at it)
I DO however know people on the same rom, who have issues with their BT headsets or vehicles not working in even the base things like phone calls (calling voicemail).
Any CM based rom WILL have this issue (until its fixed at least...)! This same issue happened back on CM7 at LEAST 3 times DIFFERENT times, worked fine, someone fiddled with something BT related or connected somehow, BT was broken... its a continual cycle of break/fix when it comes to CM, thats why Nighty's always have those HI's and low's.
Let everyone knows what works for you, as I said, what works fine for my device (phone+bt), might not work for others, so if you find what works, make sure to list the important info, EX: my Plantronics Voyager 855 has no problems with Phone Calls, Music, Videos, and Notification audio, on my Galaxy Note i717 running FJ's d9-28-2012 release.
*also, beware of restoring your device from Google, I have had WiFi and BT connections which where restored by elGoog cause me issues in CM9, I havent even let it try to cause havok in my new flash's
I'd recommend Liquid JB V2.0. I'm using the September 5 build and it's great. Bluetooth is working too, up to the September 11 build.

I have trouble understanding the discussion about BT not working. I need it to and it always has. But now I am fearful of updating my liquid smooth because this is my daily driver and when I say drive I mean I spend hours on the phone on BT in my truck. It must work!

Padawan ROM
I would say roll with the Padawan ROM. The bloat is stripped completely. I haven't seen a Jelly Bean ROM that is stable enough to get everything that you need. This is a SUPER ICS ROM! The only thing you have to worry about is the S-apps. If you use S-Memo and S-Note a lot, you will have to find a way to install them separately or use an alternative like GNote or Jotter.

Basically BT works for streaming media and not working for phone calls. It works for some people but not all. Some people said it depends on the BT headset. For me, bt is not working on my 3 bt headsets, Plantronics Voyager Pro HD, Jabra Extreme, and Blueant Q1.
If u want jelly bean and paranoid android. JamieD81 sept 11th build seemed to work for me and is buttery smooth too.
thanks for this man...
bt phone calls dont work on any of the new jb roms on either my Bose bt2, or my jabra 1100
music works fine though
hope going back to PA 9/6 does the trick, as I make bt calls all day, and I miss it!

Honestly, I really wanted to see a new face on my Flyer GB phone, and thought the phone feature was working.
After installing, I wish i never upgraded to this. And i cant seem to roll back to GB or HC. This was my main phone/tablet and im stuck.
When i try to make a phone call with blutooth, it crashes, or i cant hear the person on the otherside, and they cant hear me.
This rom will basically ruin your tablet It's not worth the update.
Now i need to save up for a new phone. Not very happy.
If someone can direct me to a guide on how to downgrade my s-off flyer 3g-wifi back to HC or GB, i will love you. Thanks.

If the only backup you have is your GB ROM, or just want to go back to straight stock locked flyer you'll need to look here on how restore your flyer back to stock GB, it's in the flyer dev forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307759
If i recall you'll need to re-root your flyer after doing the above and then restore your GB backup, if you have one.
If you made a backup of HC then you should be able to just restore the backup and you're good
Many don't have issues with going back to HC after going to any of the ICS or JB ROMs as they use the same bootloaders
What kind of errors do you get when you load any HC ROM here, like LeeDroid, Mwakous, etc...?
It is easy to downgrade, and it is certainly not the ROMs fault that a feature you need is not working. The issue of Bluetooth has been discussed dozens of times in the thread

Anyone else having a 0% success rate getting Google Talk video chat to work?

From there forward, it crashes as soon as you tap the video icon for them.

I also tried on Infected (2.1) and had the same results. Unable to use Google Talk. Wiped data. Anyone get it to work?

It worked in CM9 and CM10, but my gut is that it hasn't worked right for us in CM10.1 (4.2.x). The camera support isn't 100% in the 4.2.x ROMs.

Through some of the versions in late January, it did seem to work (there were a few fixes that went around, and 'Skype and Gtalk' wound up working).
Since either 2/6 or 2/19 (and later) or so, they haven't.
This is the first time a non-Sense ROM has been my daily driver (ever, except when I had a Fascinate, but that was my work phone) since I got my first smartphone (Eris).
I'm glad they're trying to iron everything out and make it all work though. It makes me feel like hope is in the air!

Interesting.
As of the 2/24 unofficial cm 10.1 build, it just consistently crashed. Maybe I should try the 2/28.
At this point, it appears to work on Infected 2.1, but with no audio whatsoever (neither sending nor playing any) while using g+ hangout and/or gtalk. Neo is investigating.
I'll try cm10.1 again with a fresh flash tomorrow at work if it's not busy.
I have snooped around for a while in the development part of this forum, but it seems like either A2DP is listed as non working, or it's just not mentioned. Are there any KitKat ROMs with it working? I would like to upgrade my wife's phone to something better than the last official ROM, and I'm very satisfied with KitKat on my own devices, but she uses her phone in her car to play music through the BT enabled stereo, so it needs A2DP. If none are working now, is there a chance to get something that's working with A2DP in the near future?

Hi,

Some, or maybe all, CM KitKat ROMS use Bluez for Bluethooth. At present, bluetooth is working fully on these roms, except music streaming through A2DP. Exactly what you need.
I assume it'll be fixed in next release of Bleuz, which will be version 5.17 (yo can follow this on www.bluez.org). A week after the release of this version from Bluez - we'll most probably have the first KitKat Roms with bluethooth fully operational.

Hahaha you are always welcomed! You did the best thing :good:
@Mastiff
Go to bluez.org
All KitKat roms on this forum use it as their Bluetooth stack. When they list a2dp as working it will work.
Thanks! But according to them, on the 11th of March:
"On the Android side by far the biggest feature addition is full support for A2DP 1.3 and AVRCP 1.5. Several other profiles, such as HFP and GATT have continued receiving a fair amount of patches as well, but they are not considered complete yet."
So that should mean that it's already working and has done so for almost a month. Or do I misunderstand it?
Our plaform is tricky. Is not enought BlueZ support (they work on Nexus devices) we need adapt our platform to BlueZ, because old Sony code is deprecated
OK, thanks. A bit more complicated than Hamza thought, then. Well, I'll probably just have to wait a bit longer.
Any news after 2 months?

Yeah, one month ago I got tired of waiting and bought an Xperia Z1 Compact for my wife... She actually took to the size quite easily, I thought it would be too big for her, but I guess the P had sort of primed her for it. Unlike the the P om it's final stock ROM the Z1 Compact on KitKat is very stable.
