fix permissions exactly how? i ran 'fix permissions' from ROM manager, and it didn't appear to do the trick, apparently...

at least not with the method of pushing those 3 files over...

edit: if i want to try the other method, am i flashing lithid's gapps? or the other file that is 54mbs? supersonic signed blah blah blah
[EVO 4G Android Development] AliLaPointe:
Some Help

Hey Guys,

In the OP, it says to set permissions. I know this is a noob question, but how do I set permissions? What does this mean?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
So if I flashthis on deck 1.0 it will work? Or do I have to do something else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
running Decks 1.0 I just flashed the gapps from here and video worked both ways with no issues so far
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
hey you got to remember you got an Evo just nandroid flash and try for yourself.... I just took a plung and it works for me hopefully it will for you....
[EVO 4G Android Development] teejay89:
Gapps flashed- now to get someone to help me test this..
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
In root explorer you can set the permissions of a file. System apps MUST have specific permissions: user needs read/write/execute

There will be a lot of reading on this if you google it
[EVO 4G Android Development] Natedog1:
Flashing CM nightly 62 and flashing gapps worked for me. Everything seems to be working fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
In the updated op, only one file is required. Mind removing googlecamera and googlevoice? I'll post a link in the op
[EVO 4G Android Development] $omator:
thank god youve finaly noticed it
[EVO 4G Android Development] Weedalot:
can i instead of flashing just rewrite and copy these files into the system/app /ect and so on?

Hey guys I am running decks 1.0 and I just installed the new gb-gapps20110503 and all is working fine. Incoming and outgoing video as well as voice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mr_Sinister:
Does anyone know if this works with Cyanogen7?

Thanks for all your hard work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Yup, read the op. Working w/ nightly 57, haven't tried with 7.0 or nightly 64
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mr_Sinister:
ok. Going to try on C7-64 now; will report soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kushdeck:
after tests, the only thing that doesnt work for me in the rear camera, it actualyl shows for a second but then FC's on me. good work tho. i threw a new gapps together reflecting the files, i dont want to upload it yet tho incase we can fix the rear cam. what does the googlecamera.apk do? i havent tested/tried to use it yet.

-deck
[EVO 4G Android Development] agreen1985:
I followed the steps from the OP and still nothing.

After flashing the new gapps, before copying any files to system/app, I try to use talk and it loads fine when i try to use the video feature, the screen on my evo turns gray & fuzzy and on the bottom right corner it has my front cam working. On the computer end it doesnt show anything but the audio works. I tried reflashing everything again from scratch (after restoring a nandroid backup) and following the exact directions and setting permissions, when i try to load talk it the screens pops on and off. doesnt FC just opens and closes real quick. Whats am I doing wrong? I am using CM7 7.0.2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mr_Sinister:
It is working!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] timothydonohue:
how are you guys on 64? it looks to me like 62 was just built last night...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Liamfm:
Can anyone give some insight? My camera is turned 90* so everyone sees me turned sideways. I also don't have the option to switch from front to back cam. I only have the mic (mute) and chat buttons when I tap the screen.

Evo, Fresh 4.0.0.4 running 2.3.3, lith gapps, and 3 files from OP set to:

cameragoogle.apk rw-rwxr-x

googleservicesframework.apk rwxrwxr-x

googlevoice.apk rw-rwxr-x

seems to work except for the cam is sideways and no option to choose back cam (which I don't need anyways).

Thanks in advance - let me know if you need more info to help with this prob.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
working great on nightly 62 with provided steps! thanks bro
[EVO 4G Android Development] huludical:
Ok noob question. How do I set permisions? I know how to fix permissions but its not the same right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Liamfm:
Easiest way is to use root explorer. Change to R/W, then long press the file and "set permissions". "read, Write, Execute".

I'm not sure where they are supposed to be set for each user/system/etc (see my post above) but this will at least get you started.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zbrands:
To get this to work on cm nightly 62 do I still need to add all those apps in op or just do the new gapps since it's 2.3.4?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I updated the gapps thanks to the OP addisonhammer

http://www.mediafire.com/?p05q54839gjzt
[EVO 4G Android Development] madhouze:
I'm also unable to get this to work.

Install CM7-62, tried to load the new gapps, no luck.

tried to follow the instructions provided, still no luck.

Whenever I try vid or voice I get a quickly-disappearing FC.

Either i'm missing something, or.... well... i'm missing something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Final Update

I updated the OP for the last time, lithid-cm was kind enough to incorporate the google services apk into his GAPPS... so now the whole solution is FLASHABLE

Check the OP for the link.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Very strange. I'd suggest re-wiping Dalvik and Cache, and possibly wiping data for the Talk and GoogleServicesFramework Application (From Settings>ManageApplications>All)

Give that a go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] XsMagical:
Glad you could get it working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
I had the exact problem. You need to wipe the data for the individual applications under Settings>ManageApplications>All (Google TALK and Google Services Framework)

That should fix your issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nondescript Van:
talk works fine except for switching to the back camera causes a fc, which i expected from the reading but Gmail is messed up. I get a FC every time i try to open it. market works fine though. Using CM7-57 and godmode kernel.

I'll update to the 62 nightly and reflash things to see if that works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
I flashed the zip in the op from lithid and I still have no Google talk app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Now that is strange... what ROM are you running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Decks 1.0.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
I would suggest wiping data for GMAIL and/or googleservicesframework (no worries, all your emails will re-sync)
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
working pretty awesome here. we've noticed after approximately 5 minutes the video locks up & the call has to be started again.. kinda odd
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Soviet flashed the gapps still no goolge talk. Wipe services and gmail. Still no Google talk. What am I doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Liamfm:
Tried reloading via the new .zip on the OP. Camera is still turned 90*.

New suggestions?

pm me with your google id and I can show you...
[EVO 4G Android Development] javamaddie:
I am getting the same thing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Are you both using Fresh 4.0.0.4? In his OP it looks like there is a fix script for the camera app... have you tried it? I have only gotten this working on CM7 personally, but most other have had alright luck.

Do the icons and menus rotate when you rotate the screen around? If not, it might be a g-sensor issue with the rom/app...

If nothing else is working, I would suggest a full wipe and retry (if you want it enough ;) )
[EVO 4G Android Development] javamaddie:
Nope, I am running Calkulin's EViO 3 v1.0 Beta 2. I was getting the same thing on VirusROM GengerSense. Everything else rotates. When I rotate I can get it to appear correct for a second and then it adjusts back to sideways. I did a full wipe on both when installing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
No idea buddy... VirusROM GingerSense, Caulkins's and Fresh's are all Sense-based... so they probably used Sense-Based Libraries/Driver/Apps for the camera... if so, when the ASOP-talk-app tries to ask the sense-camera-app to rotate its image, Sense-camera might say "HUH?!"

Its a long shot, but grabbing lib_camera.so and Camera.apk (or CameraGoogle.apk) from an ASOP/CM ROM might fix it.

You can find these by DL'ing any ASOP 2.3+ ROM and opening the ZIP on your computer. libs (so) are in the /system/lib folder and apps (.apk) are in the /system/app folder.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rsock1300:
To all who are not finding Google Talk after flashing gapps: In your app list are you looking for "Talk" or "Google Talk". The name of the application is "Talk". It *should* be there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cLOUDFAn:

Fresh install of cmz 7.02.1 + lithid Gapps

Do i have to keep the default kernel?

update: camera not working at all

gonna reboot clear caches and try again

if that doesnt workgonna clean install and keep default kernel
[EVO 4G Android Development] tramane:
It was the kernel Tiamat 4.0 is no bueno!

Kills my camera, on hw 003

ITS WORKING NOW with netarchy 4.3.2!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Turbo4V:
Working great for me, MIUI 1.4.22, stock MIUI kernel (Tiamat 3.3.7), installed the zip from CWM, cleared cache and dalvik, re-entered login info, and Talk just worked, video and all!

- I don't get incoming chats

- FC on camera switch.

Stock kernel
[EVO 4G Android Development] justin24:
I flashed this new Gapps on Decks 1.0 how can I start a video chat conversation?
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
now that is a tall order...

has anyone actually tried it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kushdeck:
Please update the op and let people know camera switching is FC'n. Everything else works.

[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
I assume by now you figured this out... If you have not figured this out you can always check google for your answer or go to settings help within the program
[EVO 4G Android Development] timothydonohue:
i did a clean install of cm nightly 62 (2.3.4) and someone else's gapps which was built may 3.

works like a charm. just got off the vid call with my brother in philly, me on my phone, him on his computer. he called me, then i called him.

all is well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kollock:
Tease, what gapps package?
[EVO 4G Android Development] adeyo:
the one in the OP.

On another note, will this one work w/ my stock sense gingerbread? the last fix in this thread I still had gtalk fc's.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
Some people have reported that the camera wont rotate... but otherwise works fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] justin24:
I still can't connect to video. I had decks 1.0 gapps flashed then I downloaded this flashed it cleared dalvik and cache. No dice
[EVO 4G Android Development] tgwaste:
why is vending still 2.3.3 instead of 2.3.6?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BigUps:
I can confirm that this works on CM7 7.0.2.1. with SVZ 2.0.2.

However, the app will force close if you do try to swap between the front facing camera and the back facing camera.

Good work guys!
[EVO 4G Android Development] timothydonohue:
sorry, lol, i don't remember where i got it. i have about 4 different ones, not exactly sure which one i used. i think this is it...

here

just a reminder, i'm on 2.3.4 now (cm7 n62), so i didn't have to do a google frameworks push to system

and, as an fyi, i tried using tiamat's newest sbc kernel (as of today, anyway) as was getting random reboots. went back to stock kernel and no problems so far.

was even able to go from wifi to 3g on vid call without a hiccup in mid call. (although, when i went back from 3g to wifi it did lock, but was able to recall w/o issue)
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
lithd-cm included the google framework in the GAPP package in the op, so no one should need to push it manually anymore

Cool, I haven't tried switching mid-call before... I'll have to give that a try
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
is it completely not working? or will the camera not rotate? I have heard from some people that it works, but the camera stays at 90deg...

I'll note that bug in the OP, and let me know if it is not working for you at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] addisonhammer:
I'm going to add a ROM compatibility list to the OP until ROM developers start including this stuff in their builds

If you tried using the NEWEST VERSION currently in the OP, please let me know if it worked/FAILed (and how) along with your ROM, Kernel, etc.

Thanks!

Video and audio working perfect for me. EVO w/CM7 2.3.3. Newest G-Apps. Did nothing cept installed G-apps by way of Rom mgr. Tested calling pc with video, and pc calling phone also vide. Worked like a charm. Although, swapping to back cam FC'd.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Liamfm:
Any info on how this works with sense based roms? I am on fresh and would love to get the camera to rotate in talk.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mitch Matrixx:

I need someone to test call. Anyone?
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
In ec05 that you can change the call log and choose what to show by pressing menu

The didn't have this option in eb13 and I only noticed it cuz I sent a text and went to call my friend and didn't see a red arrow.

This means samsung actually listens to feedback...

If ed12 is really gb, then it shows they're really changing compared to last year
[Epic 4G General] goodelyfe:
i thought this has always been an option
[Epic 4G General] gremlyn1:
I can change what I want to show on EB13, but I can only pick specific filters: 'Missed calls', 'Dialed calls', 'Received calls', 'Sent messages', or 'Received messages'. No way to pick just phone calls with messages... Is this different from the ED12 menu options?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Its been there since DK28.

Do you BONSAI?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
yeah it was a useless filter in DK28 and is a useless filter now. they listened to nothing
[Nexus S General] oldblue910:
After updating to 2.3.4, I notice that (to my eyes anyway) the colors seem to have been adjusted again. As we all know, Google messed with the color temperature in 2.3.3 to the chagrin of many. Complaints of yellow screens abounded. Mine had a slightly yellow tint to it as well, however it seems gone with 2.3.4.

I have always felt the best, most accurate colors available on the Nexus S were achieved with Voodoo. It appears that 2.3.4 matches it.

Are my eyes deceiving me, or are the colors really better? Anyone agree?
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
removed i was wrong
[Nexus S General] dls5375:
Something definitely seems different. Maybe a little brighter.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
i couldn't tell any difference from 2.3.3. they look more natural, perhaps with a very (and i do mean very) slight blue tint. the whites are in-your-face as before, but i found it really difficult to read the browser before, now, it's not so bad.
[Nexus S General] cosimoss:
The colours have changed, are better and look more vibrant. I'm happy again.
[Nexus S General] NAZology:
I have 2.3.4 and my yellowish tint is still here. Not a major concern to me but just figured I would share.
[Nexus S General] bhamu.pabla:
Yellow tint is still there. No difference in colour temperature.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Colors did not change.

However, I think the colors on 2.3.3 were fantastic, so.... you might not value my opinion much anyway :D
[Nexus S General] v.saketh:
Display issues still not solved :(

I wonder when they will fix this issue.

I want the yellow tint to be removed. From what I read voodoo kernel fixes the issue. So I have 3 questions. Can somebody answer them?

1. Is it possible to root without wiping data?

2. Can I flash voodoo kernel on 2.3.4?

3. To test voodoo kernel do I need to root the phone?
[Nexus S General] denis_y_s:
1. Yes

2. Not yet

3. No root needed but you need to unlock bootloader
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
I agree with this too. They're more natural this way. Yea, even though they've lost their saturation, but that's the whole point.
[Nexus S General] Smokexz:
Until someone shows me a side by side comparison I am standing by my statement "the screen colour definitely changed" other than that, I don't know because I cannot really tell that well, I cannot say for the better or for the worst, please does anyone have two Nexus S devices to compare?

Sent from my Xoom
[Nexus S General] oldblue910:
+1
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
It's not true. You do not need to compare devices side by side. You only need to look at the source code which DID change between 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 but DID NOT CHANGE between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.
[Nexus S General] Vandam500:
People the colors are the EXACT SAME from 2.3.3, I don't know what some of you guys have been smoking LOL
[Nexus S General] Vandam500:
If you guys really want to see AMAZING colors then do the following.

Flash Netarchys kernel (made for 2.3.4):

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20870695/Netarchy Nexus/netarchy-nexus-1.3.0.8a-cfs-2.3.4-signed.zip

Then download Voodoo Control from the Market.

In Voodoo Control enter these settings (taken from Voodoo Colors thread) and then restart your phone

Gamma

red: -55

green: -55

blue: -49

RGB Multipliers

red: 2689467840

green: 2883763840

blue: 3016703360

Enjoy :)
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
edit

i take it back they are the same...was hard to tell because i did a fresh install of 2.3.4

But just installed kang CM7 nighty 2.3.4 update over my configuration with custom launcher, icons..ect that i have beeen using for a while and its quit noticeable

:o
[Nexus S General] keltsi95:
These colors gave me a headache... So Brilliant :D
[Nexus S General] KULASSE:
Always this yellow tint in 2.3.4 the screen is too ugly
[Nexus S General] oldblue910:
Yeah I was wrong. I took a look at a coworker's Nexus S with 2.3.3 and compared it to mine running 2.3.4. The colors looked exactly the same to my eyes.
[Nexus S General] rajesh78:
The download link doesnt exist, can you update it? does this procedure requires the phone to be rooted??

thanks
[Nexus S General] Vandam500:
Here is the updated kernel:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20870695/Netarchy Nexus/netarchy-nexus-1.3.0.8a-cfs-2.3.4-signed.zip

No you don't need to be rooted but you do need Clockwork recovery to flash the kernel.
[Nexus S General] kramer987:
beautiful :)
[Nexus S General] Vandam500:
Oh yeah :D
[Nexus S General] pterry30:
I have 2 nexus s, 1 running 2.3.3 and other flashed with 2.3.4, there is a difference in colour for the better.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Lol u so crazy
[Nexus S General] t3rabyte:
I never got the 2.3.3 update for my Nexus S.

My screen was always very, very blue. I kinda liked it honestly. But I just got 2.3.4 and the colors are a bit more muted, the blue tint is gone, and the grays have much more depth and contrast.

I really like the new color scheme.
[Nexus S General] Rotellian:
I didnt get 2.3.3. Ive just received 2.3.4 OTA. My colours are definitely washed out compared to before. Im sure ill get used to it.

For me though the most obvious thing is that it seems less easily viewable at low brightness settings, ie Auto no longer seems to make it bright enough, turning up the brightness makes it better to my eyes but obviously that will likely carry a battery penalty.
[Nexus S General] t3rabyte:
I use the Screen Filter app to turn the brightness way down late at night for reading in bed. Before the update it had a major red tint at this low level. Now it looks normal with a wide range of gray shades.
[Nexus S General] Raver27:
I got the ota this morning ,and god do I wish I hadn't installed it....the colors are now very dingy at best...smfh
[Nexus S General] mayhem1983:
Looks the same to me!
[Nexus S General] Raver27:
I was on 2.3.2,they are no were near the same...
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
Yea its unfortunate when you buy a phone and then they do such a drastic change like this later on.

As long as you have root access Just use a kernel with voodoo support. then go to market and download voodoo app it will let you manually change them back or make even better than before

Here is the thread to help you with color settings with voodoo app

I would like to see a sprint nexus s out the box with this os version and see if there's a difference ...Can't believe Samsung would be cool with shipping there super amoled displays putting out colors like this,as it stands the ns probably has the ugliest display out of all there products ....smh sorry still venting......
[Nexus S General] Raver27:
Oh,and why is the icons in the 3d app drawer now blurred?
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
Google has complete control over the software Samsung simply just manufactured the phone.

Samsung galaxy s and galaxy s2 phones colors are perfectly normal becasue Samsung knows what colors are best/accurate for their samoled screen

unfortunately Google has to be different or something IDK

But i do know if this change happened when i was still under 30day return period i would have returned it ...even with voodoo as an option
