[Kindle Fire General] leebo:
Thanks krelvinaz. Don't mean to be a pita, but googlevoice.apk was not in with the other apk's in that zip, unless it's named something else. Looks like it contains only the basic, necessary Google apk's required for most Google services (inc. contact sync, btw, which will be a big help!).

If I ever find the correct zip, do I flash with adb, or install each apk separately?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Will send you a PM.
[Kindle Fire General] leebo:
So I got Gapps zip, extracted the apk's, and copied them to the Fire. Several Google core apk's won't install however: GoogleBackupTransport, GoogleCalanderSyncAdaptor, GoogleContactsSyncAdaptor.

I assume I need that last one to get contacts synced with the Gmail account.

In Google Voice, the button for writing a text now appears, but when I click it, I get a force close. Must need some other core app I guess.:confused:
[Kindle Fire General] iclickjohn:
Does Gapps require Root? I've been going round and round with GV on the Fire. Mostly, can't get contacts to show. I was accessing GV through Opera browser. As well as Gmail. I noticed after the last Fire update they included their own mail app and that wiped out my gmail app that I side loaded and worked fine (but now can't run at all) So hoping that Gapps works without root. It is my daughters and I would hate to break it. But I'm trying to get it set up for her as much as possible without rooting, to use Google products as they were intended. As of now, a LOT of pecking from place to place, just to do simple tasks.
[Kindle Fire General] iclickjohn:
A little work around. I'll try to remember how I did it. Has to be done on the stock browser. Google search for Google Voice. One of the results will get you a page that shows a few large cell phones and a blue button that says "send to your phone" or something similar. And it is sending m.google.com/voice as an SMS to your phone. I selected and put in my Google Voice number. Open browser and go to Google voice. This will take you to the crippled version. (where contacts don't show up and voice seems hard to use) it will also come to the notifications bar. Go to that SMS message and click on the link in it. Here's where I can't remember what I did. But you either go to the bottom of the page and switch to "desktop" Version or "more Google products" which will give a long list of icons and respected Google services. Once I opened that link to GV, it opened the normal desktop version. It showed only one contact, me from some earlier attempts. I found a link to "all contacts" and they all showed up. I went to GV settings, (the gear) and set up preferences. In general, always use GV to place calls. Set up your number you want to use for incoming calls. I deselect voice prompt when answering and chose the other option. Sorry that it is so vague. I stayed up late to figure it out. Didn't think to keep track of my steps. I think you need to go to your pc to put contacts in. Anyway, you can use this as a phonebook that you just hit "call" and it will ring your phone and auto dial your contact. Or you can use it to text the contact. I did both without any problems. The first thing I did was bookmark the page. I also copied the link and pasted it into Opera browser. I also bookmarked that one as well.

I will try to paste the link from the kindle when my daughter is done playing games. That might work too.

[Kindle Fire General] leebo:
I am still struggling with this GV app issue on the KF.

I continue to suspect the app is not fully functional because I cannot get one or two google apk's to install in the system/apps folder: GoogleBackupTransport, GoogleCalanderSyncAdaptor, GoogleContactsSyncAdaptor.

I have installed root explorer and believe I have set the folder to RW, but when I try to run the apk's I get an error message, or a "did not install" message (I am not with the Kindle Fire right now, so I'm going from memory).

I believe this should work because several others have posted its working on theirs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Blazing angel:
So here i am, getting my phone. IT's fairly hot...of noes another SOD. I'm walking, take it out of the case. Take off the battery cover....and it slips. Im around 5 11 , and was holding it at chest height when it fell. No joke, it was like time stopped. I saw it fall slowly, without any protection :(

It hit the ground...and the battery flew out (obviously). I was scared even though the screen didnt crack. because the flipping Camera hit the ground first since it popped out! :eek:

At first, it wouldn't read the battery, and showed a question mark. A quick battery remove and insert fixed that.

It works fine, but after that momment, im scared to drop. Can't bear to see my baby damaged :cool:

Just wanted to share a story.

BTW: how durable are these phones? If it was my old iphone,.......uhh wouldnt have been so good. The plastic hasnt even been dented

BTW arethese hings like bulletproof. It's
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
The odds of a phone surviving being dropped is so variable that it is unpredictable except for obviously disastrous circumstances. Wear textured rubber gloves to reduce the potential of dropping it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
I remember when I dropped mine about 5 feet face down on asphalt/concrete whatever it was and I was so mad that I walked away. Didn't bother to even look if it was cracked because I thought it was done. I ended up picking it up and it was pefect. No scratches on the screen only on metal sidings.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Blazing angel:
Well, that sounds a bit peculiar for just a phone :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Blazing angel:
You are still on the G2x correct? I just checked mine, it has a small nick on the metal band. Nothing too bad though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
Also, the phone should wear protection, put the phone in a transparent condom.

I dropped mine out of my lap onto a gravel driveway while getting out of the car. Screen shattered into a spider web. Wasn't very far down. Glad I have insurance. I agree that this phone is underated.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jufjufjuf:
I've heard peolpe dropped theirs 3 feet and it breaks. Personally I dropped mine off a 15 foot ladder at work and it landed on sharply corrugated metal flooring face first. Heart skipped a beat, I went and pick it up and nothing at all happened :D No scratches, nothing. But then again, Gorilla glass is made to not scratch from metal so drop it on concrete and I wouldn't be to sure.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] alexjustdoit:
Ive dropped mine a few times, and in my case, the corners are pretty easily dented, like soft plastic.

Those are not RUU's those are simply files for the Radio and Kernel, and what the OTA included, the small patch.

I don't think there is an RUU out for this OTA. the last actual RUU I could find for this phone is "2.18.605.4"

I also have a full rom .zip of "4.08.605.3" saved. both way behind.

with I could find a RUU for this 5.10.605.9 update.

Vivo = Incredible S

Vivo_W = Incredible 2

That file is the full RUU for the 5.10.605.9 OTA update. As the file says, it's Vivo_W, and for Verizon. You can pull the ROM.zip out of this, and change it to PB32IMG.zip and put it on the bootloader and go back to stock like that. I have XTC perma root, so it doesn't un-root me, I think it may un-root those not using XTC clip but I could be wrong.

For what it's worth.......I tried flashing this stock kernal over Newt's HD RLS1.1. Couldn't even get it to boot. Not sure if it's the ext4 problem, or just not compatible with the ROM. But, in any case, it doesn't work as is.:(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
ext4 problem,

thanks for trying.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
yeah the rom script formats as ext4 to the various partitions...wont work :(

honestly ext3 vs ext4 is minimal real world performance difference...i get why a kernel dev would opt for ext4 when building from source, but the vast majority of performance increases from custom kernels come from different schedulers, governors and other tweaks

if we had been sadled with a horrid filesystem like rfs it would be a different story

honestly i just run stock kernels 90% of the time

I'm not sure where to go from here, I rooted my Nexus, installed CWM, and everything was fine. Until my dumbass decided to reboot to recovery from ROM manager, didn't think it would hurt anything. Now, whenever I try to load recovery from my bootloader, the android pops up with the swirling ball for a second, then comes up an android laying down with a red triangle with an ! in it.

I tried factory reset, started from step 1, locked the bootloader and unlocked and rooted again. If I flash CWM, it will work the first time, but anytime after that my little hazardous android symbol pops up again unless I flash CWM again. I'm new to all this obviously, so any help would be very greatly appreciated. Thanks.
