History

- New market FCs / doesn't work / you don't like : Flash older gapps over the mod.

- New Market not offering some download links / can't upgrade some packages? That's a bug / feature of the new version you can't install some apps if you don't have default 240 LCD Density. See below the steps to temporarily change it to 240

- Not liking default 200 LCD density? Use LCD Density (included) to temporarily change it, or follow these steps for more permanent density
