Hi sam and krish...

I am currently on oxygen 2.3.2(8) by popdog for past 1 month...am really happy with it...flashed cm 9.1 briefly but went back on reading that all apps had to be installed from market,,,
Here are my specific questions...

1. What is differehce in battery life on oxy ics n cm 9.1 and milestone vs oxygen 2.3.8..is it more than 10 percent..

2. Will I run out of memory when I use ics roms..do I have to partition sd or apps 2 sd preinstalled...

3. Any issues in video recording and playback that can't be solved by third party apps..

4. Any issue in wifi tethering??

5. How often sudden reboots or data disconnect,...
6. Is it possible to enable back button n setting button while application is running n is there a button for recent apps n can we swipe n kill them like ics task manager..on these lg p500 ics roms...

Here are my specific questions...

1. What is differehce in battery life on oxy ics n cm 9.1 and milestone vs oxygen 2.3.8..is it more than 10 percent..

Almost nothing. Both are same.

2. Will I run out of memory when I use ics roms..do I have to partition sd or apps 2 sd preinstalled...

Yes. Use Link2SD / App2SD if you don't want to run out of memory.

3. Any issues in video recording and playback that can't be solved by third party apps..

Just use MXPlayer and MXPlayer ARMv6 Codec and everything will be fine.

4. Any issue in wifi tethering??

No.

5. How often sudden reboots or data disconnect,...

Never. If you face reboot it's only you. Reflash the ROM after wiping EVERYTHING.

6. Is it possible to enable back button n setting button while application is running n is there a button for recent apps n can we swipe n kill them like ics task manager..on these lg p500 ics roms...

What back button in setting? Pressing the hard back button works fine. Long press home button shows recent tasks and all which you can swipe to kill.

^^Why FLYME? It have bugs. Hephappy released FINAL the very next day, download and use that.

This is the FINAL by Hephappy which he released next day after FLYME which was reported as buggy : xda-developers - View Single Post - [DICUSSION][UNOFFICIAL][CM9][WEEKLIES]Android ICS 4.0.4

 

[kaz]

ohh sorry it was final only...with very low usage..without data..it didnt last one day even

ok krish ..thanks for ur elaborate reply..after that...i hopped on to icy-oxygen by popdog since past 12 hrs( since i wanted to reinstall my apps from titanium back up) and am loving it...don't deal much with clicking pics n stuff...one page back u recommend cm 9.1.1 over icy-oxygen ..ny particular reason apart from panorama stuff..??

how bout a comparison of cm 9.1.1 hehappy final,oxy ics,milestone 6 n cm10..in terms of their pros-cons eg.

a) battery life

b) free memory post rom install..

c) camera issues..

d) video playback issues...



ny advantages of milestone 6...

does cm 10,build 5 by rashed have project better enhancements fully working? is it really 30 percent faster..??

i have my doubts with some of these early builds which look promising when we start off but become buggy on installing apps...

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Well yeah battery is not that good. Lasts one day for me with Moderate WiFi usage and calls and sms. But if calls exceeds 1 Hour I don't get enough battery at the end of the day to use WiFi.

Well Battery wise Oxygen is always considered better above all, as it's AOSP.

Free Memory I guess Oxygen has more, as CM9 includes much more features and stuff.

Camera issues I guess is fixed on both. Isn't it? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Video Playback issues are same as of CM9.

Well both popdog123 and Hephappy uses LGICS as their source. So almost everything is same, atleast the kernel.

Difference is nothing in such, just here and there. Oxygen may have better battery life. But not something huge. Smoothness is same on both.

As of CM10, it's not stable as yet. Wait untill Rashed comes up with some better solution. Or popdog123 is also into AOSP JB.

Can't comment much about AOKP, as I haven't used it ever. Better ask in AOKP Thread @ XDA.

 

[kaz]

I am on AOKP now......hows battery life in ICY Oxygen? and problems with that Rom?

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

@Great Kaz, Please comment on AOKP's Battery Life, Smoothness etc.

Well as I said before, Both CM9 and Oxygen doesn't have great battery life. CM9 stays a day with 2 hours of calling, continuous texting for 2-3 hours and no WiFi / Data.

Whereas Oxygen is little better than this. Few pages before I posted screenshot of Battery Life of Oxygen, you can check that for reference.

 

[anupampom]

hi krish..life is smooth on oxy ics till now
1)..had battery drain of 6% in 6 hrs at night with network on but data n wifi off in sleep mode...is it good enuf..or am i missing some tricks..??

i just wanted to know if there is a way to save web page as html ( so that we can read it later on no network) on sd card by stock android browser or any other third party browser...ics browser enables for offline reading but i can't see where is the html file..

my old dolphin browser 5.5 on oxygen gb n gingerbread used to save web pages directly to download folder as html..but it is not working on oxy ice cream,..n new dolphin browser doesn't have save page feature..??

i currently am using pocket( previously read it later) but ...i can't access files independently..plus the html files are broken..and encrypted in android data folder..and have to access files from app itself..which me not likey..

2) can you suggest any third party browser that directly saves web pages as html files in download folder..??

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Can't say about HTML file saving thing as I have never tried doing that.

About Battery I can say, it's ok. That's the draining % in ICS for now.

Wait until Hephappy / popdog123 comes with some better solution.

 

[kaz]

@Great Kaz, Please comment on AOKP's Battery Life, Smoothness etc.

battery is same as all cm9....little better than hehappy's final....no app crashes....30%drained in 6hrs with 20mins 2G and around 15mins of calling and some texts....

Few pages before I posted screenshot of Battery Life of Oxygen, you can check that for reference.

hmmm I have seen that...will try icy oxygen tomorrow....

can you suggest any third party browser that directly saves web pages as html files in download folder..??

try FIREFOX Beta its available for O1 now....you can save webpages in html formal using UC BROWSER too

Problems with AOKP rom:
links2sd is now unable to mount my ext2 partition..
after disconnecting the data it still shows the data trasnfer symbol in the network icon

battery is good though.....

first AOSP and now AOKP: [JB] Android open kang project.

 

[chandrudme]

Anyone tried the latest Oxygen? How is it? Though not much is in changelog, as I changed to CM9 from the previous Oxygen build.

CM9 has tethering bugs. So thinking of shifting to Oxygen again. (Though I don't use Tethering much, but on emergency it's really helpful..!!)

krish in oxygen the lock screen has a bug.. even if the screen is locked the app drawer on the screen top can be pulled down... so it accidentally switches on BT/wifi... any solution for this??

Go locker works fine but it demands to install go launcher too...

That's not a bug. On the contrary, it's a "feature" in ICS.
Don't think you can do anything about it. But dig deeper. Maybe there's an option to disable it.

Update: Ok. Here's a pretty neat solution.
Setup a pattern unlock. When your phone is pattern locked, the notification bar can't be pulled down. Best solution IMO.
