Hey folks
Here I present you my interpretation of KP2 ICS 4.0.1 from Samsung
What's inside:
root
busybox
deodexed
zipaligned
custom DarkyOTA
battery percentage mod
AOSP ICS Launcher
Hacked Stock Kernel (su, bootanimation, init.d, cwm, busybox)
Many apps have been removed (relocated) from system, but you can install any of them through DarkyOTA app that's included ( In General tab use "Install System Apps" to recover any missing apk)
This is not a stable release that you can use daily! there are things that misbehave or do not work at all! Use this to test ICS and play with it, but do not use if you depend on your mobile. I have been missing some calls without my phone even ringing... other than that, Calendar sync does not work and there are small glitches here and there. The biggest problem: those missed calls
Some reported getting kernel panics and FCs, bu I have gone from KL1 to this back and courts at least 10 times without any issues, but again this is just an alpha from Samsung and since 4.0.3 sources are out, we can probably expect more new stuff to come this way.
Flash through CWM
If any issues after flash, reboot to recovery, wipe data and ref lash the ROM.
To remove the red border, Open Dev Tools -> Development Settings and set "StrictMode visual indicator: off" then reboot
Enjoy

camera works... but you have to wait decent time for Media Scan to finish (and there is no indication anywhere that it's running) and same goes for Gallery
usb sharing? you mean to mount your phone as a drive to your PC? then go to Settings -> More -> USB settings and you'll see the options there

it's great, but sometimes some service hangs and your battery get's drained really fast. If you keep track, a reboot fixes it
anyone flashed it?? if yes....can you tell me how is your experience with it till now?
calling works
First I would like to thank nAa for the great work. I wanted to post to the thread for MiniCM7 but i cant. (I a newbie in the forums and a n00b)
Problems:
Had issues with restoring apps. Sound was disabled (actually forced closed) after restoring apps with titanium back up. Fixed by just installing the apps without system settings.
Battery drains. ~5% per hour (haven't calibrated yet, will try later)
As I go to about the thread there are numerous problems with KB lights and WiFi but haven't encountered those. For the camera i will test it as well.
Suggestion/Request:
Can you add a note pad app? (Ill check in market if there is an app for that* [ I'm just using prepaid sim so i don't have the luxury of going online all the time ])
Regarding Contacts is it possible to make a group?
With Messaging is it also possible to tap into contacts so you can add more contacts easily. (I know there are apps for that but i want my phone to be clean and no conflicts with the existing messaging app)
Again thanks a bunch! And I hope I can reach ten post so i can go to the thread and add more inputs.
*Isn't that an IPhone tag line?
OT: Thanks XDA and more power.
OT2: Sorry for my English.

for the keyboard light you can download a Kfix, it fixes the keyboard light, you'l find it on the forums if you search for it

thats one of the downsides to this ROM, i found that i cant multi select the contacts i wanna send text to, you will have to type each persons name individually and then select them.
i been using nAa ROM and kernel for 1 week now
So after a few days of tinkering with my toy. here's what i have.
*battery drains - never got fixed even tried undevolt. have to charge my phone twice a day. calibration seem to have no effect at all.
*KB lights - no issues since first porting
*wifi - little buggy but i just forget the network then log back to the network and it works.
*camera - no trouble just like KB lights
*note pad - i just use my drafts for it no trouble really.
*groups and contacts to messaging - just used go launcher for the mean time
Hi
About battery with smart tass v2, it improve my battery. I ussually go to application - debugging. And unmark "ubication paralels"
about Camara try youtube setting in video, it is less buggy.
About keyboard in x10 mini pro go to CYD setting - screen - automatic light screen - edit others levels... in keyboard write 155 135 85 50 0. Test in a dark room
About wifi, I think the problem is hardware always I have the same problem.
about notepad... what?? Use virtualrecord to record your notes is faster I think.
(ssorry about comand my phone is in spanish the translation is bad)
thanks luisecp for the suggestions.
about my battery i give up on it and just live with it.
as mentioned i have no trouble with my cam and the KB lights
WiFi well i have my fix and that is never to install the settings
is virtual record a voice recorder? i somehow want a visual not a voice one.
thanks again.
Update: I can seem to send or retrieve any mms if i don't enable data traffic which was not the case with the stock version. correct me if I'm wrong but i beleive when you send or retrieve mms the data is automatically enable and disabled after sending or retrieving.

Yes you can, kernel does not depend on the previous versions, when you flash a kernel it completely overwrites the previous version.
I've just flashed yesterday from miniCM7.2.17 nAa08 to miniCM7.2.18 nAa10.
I've found that minicm7.2.17 with nAa10 is a bit buggy and slow, so i guess if you flash the new kernel you should flash the new minicm7 as well.

Yes, i think you have to re-flash gapps. I had to in the past, when upgrading.
i had really crappy battery life so i tried turning off my data,it really helps.at least for me.
data on it lasts 7-8 hours whit little use.
data off it goes no problems for 13-14 hours
once with data off managed to go up to 2days and 19hours i think
sensors stopped working, what should I do?

Well, i like the ROM, but since i flashed it, my mobile network (3G) doesn't let market & whatsapp get a connection.

Any way to solve this problem ?
Hello imbawind,
First of all thank you for your rom which is exceptional.
There are still some problems:
- 3 new patch does not work
- My GPS does not work
- Can not import Google calendar
- Is it possible to recover the email application and the weather widget / current base?
Well, that's all! The rest is wonderful! A great big thank you!
Sorry for my english, I'm French and I use Google Translation.
Alexandre
Mistake on my part but the GPS works perfectly!
No problem with the All patch Patch (1 ~ 5) that as of today!
It's a shame we can not be traced directly to the problems regarding the ROM (New Member: To unlock all capabilities of XDA ...)
Imbawind thank you for the updates!
It's a damn good ROM. Everything works fine, just a few remarks:
-Play store hides many compatible apps and show many more incompatible ones
-APNs are deleted, restoring takes forever and does nothing
-Notifications in upper bar can extend over center clock
-Pushing apps from pc market just does not happen right after flashing, needed some messing around
All the way, thank you!
uuhm OP I suggest you just PM him ^.^

GPS is not that fast, but apps like GPS Aids help big time.

I mean have you ever used the desktop version of the market (now google play) to push apps to your phone by just clicking install? Well this didn't use to work at the very beginning, right after flashing your ROM. I don't know what I did, but after some time I was able to get it right.
When I try to connect the USB tethering, it connects, but immediately after appears the message USB connected and the tethering check box becomes unchecked.
Did this happened to anyone else?
Can this be a baseband problem?
My baseband is WKS2.
Please help.

Good evening imbawind,
Well, I just start from scratch and everything is really perfect. A big thank you.
I'll do a summary of procedures for the other:
- Creation ext4 (512M) and swap (256M) on the SD via CWM
- Complete wipe
- Installing the ROM Adrenaline
- Reboot and return on CWM to install the patch all-in-one
- Reboot and return to install the patch CWM Google Contacts and Google Calendar
It works well and the phone is 100% reactive
Now the only thing I miss is some application of the stock ROM:
- The application email (I do not like K9-mail and other)
- The news and weather widget the stock rom
- The google search widget
Is it possible to recover the apk for independent installation of the rom?
Anyway, thank you again.
Alexandre
Good evening,
To retrieve Email, GenieWidget, Memo and FMRadio, I tried to make a zip with an example of the ROM addons SanGingerAce * SL2 application but email does not work at all.
Is it possible to propose an addon of this type there?
Alexandre
Hello,
I just created an archive to restore the following applications:
- GenieWidget
- Email
- FMRadio
- Memo
The zip is for use with CWM (system mount).
Sincerely,
Good evening,
For a complete reinstall, my GPS does not work anymore. Unable to use Google Maps or Navigation.
Does anyone have the same problem?
In the previous installation, I use the patch separately and at last, I used the allinone ...
Hi there,
I have no 3G at all, cannot use the internet or play store due to no internet connection. Packet Data etc is all enabled and I have whiped data and re flashed numerous times but 3g will not work. If i press the power button on the side it says data network mode deactive but it will not change to active. Im on Orange UK. P.S All other roms work fine with 3g so Its not my phone/sim?.
Thanks
The second edition works great, apart from the gps, it still does not lock. Its not that i need it anyway, im using the baseband that came with the stock rom if that is required, wkt3 if i'm not mistaken. Apart from that all good, maybe it could be little less barebones but i can surely deal with flashing addons through CWM. As i said earlier, GPS is not essential in any way for me, but if there is a time i'll actually need it i'd rather have it working . Great stuff, love it.
Edit: Just for the sake of experimentation, i've reflashed the rom and installed maps from the store and it now locks! Dunno if it was a titanium backups fault previously, but i have to take my little 'accusation' back . GPS now works, will test again tomorrow when i'll be on the move. Great, great work, much better than the other, 'rival' rom
Why don't post at my rom thread?
I would be more than happy to do so, but my post-count is too low.

Just a suggestion : would u be kind enough to provide the stock music player as an addon, cause IMHO google music has some kind of sub par sound compared to the stock one. I've flashed beats audio and it has some issues on my earbuds, creative ep 600 something, thus not entirelly ****ty headphones. Just a suggestion, because i've 'stolen' the addon from stocklite 6.0 and it works like a charm.
Ps. I'll be glad to post in this topic, cause i'm a semi noob and i do not want to spam the forum with some useless comments and ask questions that can be answered by some quick google query. Keep up the great work

I've flashed this ROM yesterday and everything is smooth, battery life is also great. Just one thing is link2sd working on it? I tried but even linking all apps the internal storage is nearly full.
I guess something is wrong, look at Where's my water example:
Installed on SD card nice and easy, but when I try to link it I receive a message saying that there's no free space, so does it moves to somewhere in the internal storage?
I really could use some help here, and congrats to the devs for the amazing job

I assume (hope really!) that SocialLife is more stable and less laggy - any difference please?

Tried OTA Rootkeeper but didn't work, ohwell, never used root anyway to be honest.
Root
New rooten and finished - just the instructions here in the forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1887447 I pursue today is done perfectly well under Release 6
Any of you above, give me a good reason to root the Tablet
The Answer why i have rooted the Tablet
For me, the rooting useful because now I can use USB flash drives that are in NTFS format - unfortunately supported by Android, this house is not, unfortunately, you do not FAT32 so I extended my exFAT for larger video files. Since I have only a WiFi tablet I can use the app with Root Manager and use UMTS 3g umts stick on the device ... there are more things but those are only playing - but we can extend by Root use many useful features and The root method is also associated with little risk because you change the read-only files right and push back and forth. Thus, it is worth the thing - for me personally - because everyone has his own opinion .. and that is a good thing
Thanx for your feedback xxliftsupxx
Any easier method than the step bu step guide? The last time it took me hours to do it!
Really could use a batch script from the whole build with a few breaks
Simply copy and paste the instructions to work through in CMD console If you are using step "Backup / system (you may just skip it)" omits goes faster because you'd have to do something else further up again That was what all my time had stolen - otherwise you are in 10min by

Upgraded mine to Release 6, Socialife is less buggy, the news section works now finally though it's still a bit clunky. I think the interface of Currents/Flipboard works better with social newsfeeds
The Reader seems the same, but nothing was wrong with it in the first place, perhaps more to do with new content or types of books.
Sony really need to fix the power issue where you get an inconsistent experience every time you try to switch it on, i never know if it will switch on straight away, needs two or three presses before coming to life. I love Sony, but this needs to be fixed ASAP as numerous complaints are testifying to.
I thought it was a Tegra 3 saver core issue, but the Asus ones I checked don't have this problem. Hope the JB build is more streamlined!!!
All these silly skins are slowing down the core Android OS imo.
Root
So for me with this root method NO apps has been deleted. The only thing is that the desktop without Widgeds was. But all apps still there and worked perfectly. Email accounts but had to be re-created. But that was under root 4.0.3. Rel.5 so I find this root method great, because you can understand what is happening. An on-click root solution is favorable - but you do not know what exactly because expires.
Hi,
Hopefully I am writing in the correct place about my issue.
I have the Xperia Z2, rooted, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery.
I flashed the Unofficial PAC ROM by "rcstar6696" and it works fine with tons of features, my problem is that the phone would not lock securely.
I tried to use PIN, Pattern, Gesture locks and they all do not function, the phone will still unlock with slide.
I tried to reset the phone, same thing. I looked all over the forums and could not find anything about this with Z2.
My friend owns a Nexus 5 and I rooted and flashed PAC ROM onto his phone and the Pattern lock works like a charm.
Is anyone facing the same issue? Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks.
EDIT: I have flashed the latest version from 20th of September cleanly and still facing the same issue.
EDIT: after a few resets and wipes, I noticed that when installing/uninstalling apps. The lock chosen works for a limited time (Usually 6 hours) and then stops randomly.
I am still trying to identify if it's an app causing this.
EDIT: ISSUE SOLVED !!
I reset the device one more time with a clean boot, then while setting it up, I did not connect to my google account. I skipped most of the steps, then set the lock screen, rebooted, added my google account manually.
and VOILA ! phone securely locked.
I do not know how my google account caused this, but it seems to be the reason at the moment.
The port for Z2 may have some bugs so post your problem in the rom thread and the devloper may reply and explain

Xposed would cause it, or any mods or tweeaks because pac is framework sensitive which means even simple mods can cause huge issues

Yes of course, but I just flashed it cleanly and no apps whatsoever (except GApps & Stock) , and still the issue is the same.
I even did not change any of the ROM built-in settings and still, no secure locking.
Oh and trust me, PAC ROM is amazing (if it wasn't for this issue) , made me hate every minute I spent in CM and TouchWiz (on my old S4) :good:
Did you do a complete wipe? I wiped all partitions including media before installing pac.
And yes pac is excellent and perfectly stable, only issues I have is nav bar dpi seems to reset after every reboot, but if I toggle say screen timeout via quick settings it changed to what it should be and active display reboots my phone but I don't use it anyway

I'm not sure how to do that, however, I managed to solve it.
And I am facing the same with nav bar and the PACperformance app, it just doesn't stick after reboot.
EDIT: actually, I just tried a few reboots, the nav bar seems to be fine to me, I did however change the icons via "Android L Navigation Bar" found in the xposed downloads. Maybe that caused it to "stick"?
as for the active display, I would like to use it, but I am a pixel maniac, and that feature isn't FHD yet I guess, so I am not using it either for the moment.
