You might have to set the proper permissions. Just take a look at everything else in /system/app . Is it not showing up in your app drawer or does the app just not work?

Won't show up in app drawer

Dang, that might've been the VVM from 4.0.1 instead of 4.0.3. Let me see if I have another 4.0.3 ROM with VVM and I'll post it for you.

Ok here this is a flashable zip

I flashed rom & kernel and everything went through fine but I'm not able to connect to 4g/3g. Wifi works fine though. Help?

Okay so I hate to sound like a total noob, but I deleted old vvm package went into recovery and installed new package and this thing still isn't showing up!

Maybe there's something I'm missing. I'll double check and get back to you.

Loving this ROM

Have you had any luck using HDMI out?

 

[MrSmith317]

Never tried HDMI...I don't really have a want/need to plug in to a TV. Try posting in the thread on XDA.

Thanks for the quick reply. My plan was to replace my laptop with my phone. I have a monitor that supports HDMI and a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Scott's CleanROM supports it but I'm not a fan of Sense. I'm really digging the stock ICS feel in your ROM. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I will head over to XDA.

I wish this were my ROM. This is Xtreme Outcast's ROM. I just reposted the initial information here with his approval.

On topic, since they don't have the same base I would say give it a shot but don't be disappointed if it doesn't work. Scott's ROM is his own concoction of the Sense leak and his own tweaks. Xtreme's ROM is based on NewToRoot's version of the ICS leak. So while they share a base, one swaps out a bit more for the AOSP/Senseless feel.

What up smith, hey any progress with with the VVM just a thought is your rom deoxed or odexed cause i was reading around and that will screw up apps, and another question have you seen any rezounds with batt problems with this rom, only reason i ask is because after i installed this phone batt got weaker and weaker and finally wouldnt turn on happened once before your rom and twice after i figured just a dud phone but just wanted to check anyway. Anyway hit me up

My battery issue's weren't that bad, but got worse after installing this ROM. Check your screen brightness. For some reason this ROM maxes out the screen brightness automatically, even after I adjusted it. I got around this by selecting 'auto-brightness'. It's not the best and not what I like, but it's better than before. Hope this helps.

I've noticed that too. I'm wondering which file has the kernel scalings in it, that usually is the source of SOME of the battery drain.

I tried flashing this rom from recovery and when I hit power to select the ics-4 folder to flash it opens up to 3 more folders-data, meta-inf, and system and I don't understand y it isnt flashing. I followed this step first-

"PH98IMG.zip
To Install place in root of sdcard. Reboot toFastboot, power up to confirm install."

Then I downloaded the ics rom and moved it to the internal sd card. After I rebooted to recovery I did a nand backup. I then wiped cache and data. I go to flash zip menu, then go to internal sd card, and i see the ics-4 folder but when i choose it, it doesnt install it just leads to the other 3 folders previously stated. If someone can please tell me what I am doing wrong thank you.

Those instructions seem to be based on a stock recovery or are just written funny. Which version did you download?
For most versions you can use these instructions.

1. Open the ROM zip file and extract boot.img(keep on your PC)
2. Flash the ROM zip file in Amon Ra
3. Reboot into HBOOT
4. Connect to your PC
5. Flash the kernel using fastboot("fastboot flash boot boot.img")
6. Reboot into your ROM(be patient this can take a few minutes for first boot)

Where should I be extracting the boot.img file to? Ithought it does that when I download the file. When I place it on the phones internal sd card isnt that iextracting it there? Sorry for all the questions
