Hi, I'm on 2.3.7 right now an I want to know what will get erased when i upgrade to ICS. Is it just contacts and apps that are on the phone memory?

Thanks
 
Can someone post a tutorial? And Is there a version that has the camera working?
I have CM7 2.3.7 but how do I upgrade to ICS?

Edit : I installed ICS but the Camera, Clock/Alarm doesnt work. And the battery drains in less than 7 Hours.

Not alot you can do there system problems, if you are not running beta 5 deep sleep is not working, which is why the battery life is so bad, on beta 5 the battery only lasts about 12hrs, mike is looking into it.

Also the laggy youtube is a codec problem that mike is also trying to fix.

Just bear with it for a bit, next version shouldnt be too far away.

Also this forum seems to be loosing all its experts (if you can call us that) if you want updates on ICS, this forum on XDA is where mike posts any news, and it has a link to his blog which is where he posts his updates.

Do you have recovery installed? If you still have the ASIS files on your PC connect through fastboot and find your recovery.img (i like to move it to the same location as fastboot) then type in cmd.

cd {location of fastboot.exe}

fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img

Then reboot and hold the home button when you power on and it should boot into CMW recovery.

How did you install it ,i have tried installing via zip but it got struck at coloured lg logo.can you send me a backup of polish blood RC .please upload to media fire not deposits file.I will Be thankful to you
 
I turned the phone off to recovery mode and installed it using the zip off the sd card , it takes a few mins but it does install then reboot, let it finish. then give it 10mins then switch off and back on again and its done. Back up your numbers before you install as they dont work correctly.

Hmm what size is your system partition? it needs to be 200 or 210 for preRC, also did you wipe data after you installed, it causes alot of problems if you don't, from bootloops to making the system really slow.
 
How do i install from Beta 4 to the new public beta?

I tried to do it via recovery - install from zip, but it aborts, doesnt install.

Any ideas?

Regards

EDIT: First public test seems was the Beta 1 file... My bad and im sorry for posting.
