Like so many members here, I've never had an ICS device. So there are things I'm finding working and some things different to possibly buggy. I thought we might could use a thread to track issues and share info.

What I've seen so far:

1. Temple run has a possible bug sensing swipes. Needs confirmation to be a bug.

2. Browser widget seems to open the bookmark db preventing using sqlite to delete locked crappy bookmarks. Trash widget temporarily and make sure browser closed seems to allow editing.

3. Found a new one. Google email widget seems to lose account link often and has to be trashed/redone to work. Real annoying.

Has the bluetooth problem been fixed? Used to be that if you had BT turned on and not connected to a device, you couldn't hear anyone and they couldn't hear you over the phone.

I can confirm the Temple Run bug. Another thing other people (myself included) are experiencing, I get a text message that reads something like VZWXE1 , several times a day. Next time I get one I'll post it exactly as it shows.

Cut the Rope (&Experiments) force closes.
Temple Run & Running Fred doesn't recognize when you lift your finger (Temple Run thinks you're constantly tapping the screen wherever you lift it)
Can Knockdown has a similar bug
Face unlock is super super laggy and you can put in your password through it sometimes
First boot is slow as all hell
When you have no data, there is still an invisible icon in its place
Sometimes swiping through app drawers will freeze in the middle of the animation
The favorite contacts widget can be dragged with the finger without long-pressing but doesn't do the cool cascading thing from GB
If you press a hard button during the CRT animation the screen will turn right back on after it ends

The green tint on low brightness is mostly gone
The manual brightness can be set WAY lower, but that setting isn't part of auto-brightness yet

This isn't a bug, I'll post the fix when I get home.

I'm using face lock now and having no troubles so far. Doesn't seem to lag but I'm not running anything in the background.

Exchange security policy enforcement will not apply settings -- it sits on a blank screen.

Cut The Rope, Kona's Crate and numerous other games FC before you can play anything.

Bluetooth hangs between on and off leaving you unable to toggle and requiring a reboot to fix.

Moto_hotplug governor is MIA.

No, the new governor is "hotplug", which was present before too. mot_hotplug is gone though, you're right.

Try to use it practically, though. It definitely lags a lot as the camera is starting up, it adds a whole 5ish seconds to your unlock routine at the very least, especially if you're trying to hit the little lock button so you can just put in your passcode because it's too dark. Doesn't do that on the GNEX.

Swiping must be a little goofy right now in general.

Does your guys launcher (Apex or Stock) app drawer stop halfway between two pages sometimes? Or is it just mine?

Confirmation would be awesome.

5ish seconds? I can unlock easily in less than 2 seconds, from wake button to homescreen.

I used bootstrap to install Beats Hack. It works, not that Beats does, but the install does.


I lost several contacts. I didn't want to call the wife anyway. She will just want chores out of me, if I do get in touch with her.

I'm positive there is a governor called interactive now, according to rom toolbox.

Also built in screenshot is Vol-down and power.
Can't get overclock modules to load atm
Random market download error when downloading apps.

Every device has interactive, conservative, & ondemand. on GB we had interactive, conservative, ondemand, hotplug, and mot_hotplug, mot_hotplug being the default. On ICS we have interactive, conservative, ondemand, and hotplug. no mot_hotplug, and hotplug is the default.
