New ICS Leak for Bionic

Alright... I saw this and I wanna go to ics. Pros? Cons? I already know you can keep root and fxz back to 902. Any bugs? What are the "need to knows" before installing this leak?

From my own experiences:

UI crash when using webtop. This happens while using the stock homescreen launcher. Remedy/Workaround: Use a different homescreen launcher while using webtop.

The "ring" volume and the "notification" volume will not lock together so that they can be adjusted simultaneously. No solution found.

After installing an app "sometimes" the widget for that app does not show up in the app drawer right away: Remedy/Workaround: Rebooting seems to force the widget to show up.

When using the stock homescreen launcher, and while on the default screen the home button does not show smaller previews of each homescreen as it didn't on gingerbread releases. Remedy/Workaround: use a different homescreen launcher that can provide the feature.

Oddity: Some people are showing that their cpu clock speed is at 1.2 ghz. Some others including myself is still showing 1.0 ghz which I verified using Setcpu and Quadrant. Question is why some can or can't have 1.2 ghz

I've seen more that one person claim that their email is very slow to load data (15 to 30 seconds were claimed). I personally have one imap account using the official "Email" app and I have one gmail account using the official "Gmail" app. I have used them both alot and they work instantaneously. One person I asked that was having the slow down was using an exchange type email account.

Thanks for the feedback. Seems like they are minor glitches. Still worth the flash to me. Installing the 905 update as we speak. Going to get some ice cream today :)
 
I can't get Foxfi to work on it. FWIW I do pay (VZW) for MHS, it's just that the native Bionic MHS app was giving me problems so I used Foxfi. On. 2233 the stock MHS app works even better than Foxfi on .904.
 
Yep. Also check force gpu rendering. Speeds up things a bit as well. Here's an Article describing graphics processing unit.

I wouldn't recommend that. Force GPU rendering requires all apps to run with hardware acceleration enabled, even if they don't support it. YMMV, but it could cause some apps to misbehave.

I am curious, is there an option for global under mobile network settings? If so, then the bionic can be used on gsm without hacking to get it?

What is your battery level? It looks like you need to charge your phone. You should be at least at 60% before attempting to install the update. I usually charge to at least 80% to be safe.
 
You will need to flash it back to 902 take the ota 905 then jump to ics again. Have any friends with a bionic that you can borrow their battery?

Oh well, it was just a thought. I was just going by the info you posted. I personally don't have any more suggestions. :(

Thankfully there are a number of much more qualified individuals who can hopefully help you out.

ICS is fantastic. I hope you get it up and running soon. Good luck!

Thanks I'm flashing .902 again, and will charge the battery after that to 100% then try again.
