FULL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(IDIOT PRROF) requested by westcrip

Before beginning any type of flash, its time to make a complete back up in CWM. Along with titanium backup which is used to backup your apps/apps data.

After that its time to begin! install the files in this particular order..

01- İNSTALL REMIX MAIN BASE ZİP

02- INSTALL GAPPS_FOR_REMİX

03- İNSTALL GAPPSFİXER

05- FIX PERMISSIONS (OPTIONAL, THIS WILL FIX ANY WALLPAPER SETTING ISSUES YOU MAY HAVE)

06- REBOOT (AT THIS STAGE IT MAY TAKE A WHILE FOR FIRST BOOTUP, BECAUSE WE HAVE WIPED CACHE IT NEEDS TO REBUILD IT. DONT PANIC MAY TAKE A WHILE.)

07- INSTALL BLACK THEME (OPTIONAL)

08- INSTALL CRT-OFF_Enabled.zip (OPTIONAL, AS DEFAULT CRT IS ON. IF YOU DONT WANT CRT FLASH THIS)

09- FIX PERMISSIONS

10- REBOOT

WHY UPDATES ARE ALWAYS FULLWIPES?

By making a rom full wipe, this cuts the chance of user made bugs to appear. Helping the thread not be filled up with more useless posts then there already is. Use a backup app, eg. Titanium Backup.. also backup your launcher settings. Restoring takes me 5 minutes at the most so stop whinging, this is not going to change in the future.

FULLWIPE & NOWIPE BREAKDOWN

DPI CHANGE BOOTLOOP

DPI must be changed manually in "/system/build.prop" using a root file explorer eg. root explorer, reason for this theres multiple entry's for DPI setting which is "ro.sf.lcd.denisty=240". You must delete one of the entry's, then modify to your liking.

MARKET INSTALL ISSUES/UPDATES NOT SHOWING UP

You have to push over patched market, which you can download: HERE.

You will then have to put Vending.apk onto your SDCARD, open up a root file manager, eg. root explorer. Navigate to SDCARD and move Vending.apk to "/system/app/" replacing existing one. Once this is done restart the phone before opening up market.

TITANIUM BACKUP RESTORE FREEZE

Fix is: Unmount SDCARD by navigating to "Settings -> Storage -> Unmount SDCARD"

or

Titanium Backup -> Preferences -> Restore backups to... -> Internal storage

CRT OFF AFFECT

credits to: Vreestyle

This has been removed as it was a little buggy, although if you didn't mind the slight bugs you can download CWM flashable packages from this thread: HERE.

Were currently on XXLPB.

SETTINGS IN ENGLISH

credits to: sewe

This is a known issue, current fix is to flash over Illusion rom settings via CWM, which you can find: HERE.

NO SWYPE

credits to: sewe

You can download SWYPE BETA: HERE, Extract and place in "TitaniumBackup folder on SDCARD, then restore via Titanium Backup.

BLACK SCREEN WHEN MAKING/RECEIVING CALL

credits to: unknown

This usually happens with the first call you make/receive after a reboot, hold your finger over the proximity sensor for a few seconds and screen will be restored.

BATTERY DRAIN

Uninstall/Freeze Google+ and also turn off google photos sync, even turn off sync all together. Also always restart after a fresh flash/update.

If drain is happening after fresh flash, may be the battery calibrating.. drain battery to 0% and give it a full charge.

Install CPU stats and make sure phone is going into deep sleep, if not turn off phone and remove battery this has been reported to resolve issue.

You can also install betterbatterystats from market for further stats on whats draining battery, alternatively just use OS monitor.

T9 DIALER DOESN'T SEARCH BY NAME

This feature is not supported just yet, may come in the future.

DISPLAY CONTACTS WITH NUMBERS ONLY

This is not supported just yet, the contact display settings are quite basic at this stage.. may change in the future.

or

CHROME BROWSER FREEZING

Chrome is currently in BETA, along with this rom.

RANDOM FC'S/FREEZES

There are next to none, although if there is most likely because the app your using is not supported on ICS just yet, or if its a stock app you have to remember this is leaked firmware.

ROOT EXPLORER SAYING READ ONLY ERROR

Press the Mount R/W located on the screen to grant root privileges allowing modifications to read only files.

I think this covers pretty much everything, if you would like to add an addition to the FAQ, please feel free to send a PM.

Also if someone could request this post be moved to second place by a MOD? Im guessing it would have to be westcrip.
