[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
I've seen quite a few fixes for ICS's Facebook sync issues, and have been trying lately to adapt them (specifically, fixes for the Vibrant and Galaxy Nexus) to the Captivate, but I've had no luck with my current method, which is moving various APKs such as ContactsProvider in to the .zip for the ROM that I'm using (TeamHacksung ICS build 14). How do the other fixes actually work, and would it be possible to adapt one of them to the Captivate?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
-_- this has been answered, use the search function.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upNsmokeAllDay:
Tired of seeing these lame elitist answers. If you know then answer him, if not then don't reply. Simple as that.

Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate using XDA Premium.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
All I'm getting from the search function is a wall of results from the same thread, none of which work, as far as I've seen.

PS: HaxSync or any of those other apps won't work. I only want FB sync for the phone numbers, which only the official app provides, as far as I know :|.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
FriendCaster is the app you are looking for.

Nvm. I am gonna leave it at that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
Doesn't work :V.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
That was the fix that everybody has been using. Have you actually tried FB?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
Yep! It's on the list of available accounts, but if I press it, it doesn't get added to the list. Friendcaster does load up the contacts and pictures, but IIRC, the official app is the only thing that can get the phone numbers, which is really all I care about in this case. And yes, I'm certain that the official app doesn't work for sync, and that Friendcaster isn't getting phone numbers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
I would try asking in the ICS Rom's Q&A thread, in Q&A subsection. If you are using the ICSSGS then use their Q&A, if on TeamHackSung's then use theirs
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
I've asked there, but from what I've seen, TeamHacksung's official line is pretty much LOLNOPE WE'LL WAIT FOR FACEBOOK TO FIX THE APP. Seems like a dumb strategy to me, considering there're fixes for this issue on many other phones, including other Galaxy S variants.

I guess I'll see how they respond anyways!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Well it is something that Facebook has to do, TeamHackSung can't change the API for the Facebook app. It has nothing to do with their ROM, it is Facebook's fault for not updating to what Google has told them they have to.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
So how have all of the other fixes been done, then? I've seen quite a few ROMs that fix that functionality, somehow. I'm trying to figure out how they managed to do that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
IDK, hope you figure this out!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissile:
Welp, my initial strategy actually ended up working, after a clean wipe. I used the patched Contacts and ContactsProvider APKs from the Vibrant ROM that I found, and it's syncing everything but photos now. Exactly what I wanted :3!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomafk:
link or more info? :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jarmezrocks:
Can I please request some more info on this "vibrant" ROM you speak of? I am in the process of decompiling apks...not just copy and pasting from other ROMs cause they have all been put together differently from what I have heard?

I have synching working but only some pics which is ****ting me. So any help would be great :D

Nice find. This is definitely one of the better music player apps out there at such an early stage too! I'm not sure I know how to use the theme template zip but it matches ics nicely as is. I still prefer poweramp as my music player of choice though. Its the best one out there hands down IMO.

No other music player compares to Power Amp. It shoulda been the one Android came with.

How do I get music to appear in this app..i can see music in my folder but not in my app...do i need it in a certain folder
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] OhioYJ:
Anyone else having issues with this player, when other sounds play? When I have music playing and then a notification sound comes through or the phone rings, the music goes out for random periods of time. The music maybe off and not play for anywhere from 5-60 minutes, then randomly it comes back on out of the middle of nowhere. If I try and use the phone while it's not playing, it's extremely laggy? Usually have to force close the app and reopen it. It acts as it's playing the song, although no sound is actually being played when it does this.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] fulaman:
I have had this issue before, that's why I uninstalled the CM9 player and went back to Google Music.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] OhioYJ:
I pushed back over the original music.apk and the problems went away.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] fulaman:
Does the CM9 music app still lag up your phone?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] blinde:
Is this app completely abandoned or what? Still crashes randomly with CM9 & SGS2.

Too bad since I really liked it.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Eris _2.1_2010:
Not abandoned. Here's some info.

I really appreciate all the dev work that goes into the ROM ecosystem, and I know how much time is involved... but the bugs are killing me. This phone is only 2 years old!

What ROMs are still actively maintained?

CM7 porting for this device has stalled

MIUI porting has stalled

Bugless Beast?

I've had major bugs on all of those that have made me go shop around.

Any hints?

I'm currently running liquid 3.2 and have not had any issues at all, I know this rom is not actively being developed, but if your looking for something stable check it out.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] znetroll:
Hum, CM7 still is being developed (there are updates in the source code), it just hasn't been enough for a release yet. You can always build the code yourself, though familiarity with Linux is a must.

Nadlabak / Kabaldan is focusing on bringing ICS to the milestone though, and I must say I support his decision - it's already running quite smoothly! If he keeps up the pace, everything will be up and running withing a few months or so ;)

I'm not sure if its a port problem but the best way to verify it is to connect to a router or a different hotspot.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] stankyou:
How about just the Market app only from the Applications menu then look for market and clear data. That should prompt you to sign in when you relaunch Market and prompt you to agree with the agreement terms.

Other than that, you are **** out of luck.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Androhacker:
Same Here!

Hey! I had the same problem. What I did was I opened Manage Applications from Settings > Applications > Manage Applications. And then I clicked on Market and cleared data. Then (I think so) I clicked on Market Updater and cleared data. I don't think its possible. But the thing is it helped me. And when I started market it was the old 2.1 android layout style which I liked. But it wasn't long before market updater updated the market. At least this is better than my friend's Galaxy Pop because since he has installed the CyanogenMod on his phone, his market and task manager has disappeared. And the joke of the day was that he was searching for Market in the Market! :D

Is there any in existence? I mean roman's tweaks settings, for adding battery percentage and crt animations for our phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
have you tried hitting up Blue, since he is the keeper of the ROM that roman started? otherwise, how about pulling the tweaks.apk out of a Bulletproof ROM and putting it into /system/app of your current ROM? i'm not sure if it's that simple or not, but could be worth a try.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] masterkamon842:
I tried pushing it to system but it wasn't that easy... Didnt work for me. Ill see if I can get blue's attention. I'll keep this thread posted for future reference.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
What you can do is use Root Explorer to move it to /system/app while the phone is on, then set the permissions (long press on it, permissions is in the menu that pops up - scroll down) to look like the permissions of every other file in the /app folder.

Edit: to quote myself from explaining how to do it before:

Then, reboot the phone, and see how much of the app works.

You should be able to get it installed that way, but if not my thread on Replacing the Google Market would be a good place to start learning how to make your own flashable zip file.

Just replace the market with whatever app you can't push to /system/app normally and you should be good.

Some third party apps don't run well or at all from the /system/app partition, they just expect to be in /data/app ... but some will. The one you're playing with works fine from in the /system/app directory.

Might want to look into this thread by Romanbb: Extended Quick Settings as well.

Romanbb's awesome tweaks are worth the work - I couldn't imagine using the device without them now, and am definitely looking at playing with it some. The one thing i'm struck by as a user more then anything else, i'd like to be able to change the order of the quick settings in the actual pull-down menu.

I want flashlight first, full settings second, then i'll figure out the rest of the order as I go, but both volume settings go dead bottom with me.

I haven't had the time to sit down and do it, but that's the next ability i'm interested in acquiring with regards to that. I can't wait to get my phone back so I can start making some progress again.

Meantime, i'll be in and out and others floating around here I know can steer you right if you need it - you lose nothing 'cept time for trying (you did do backups before you started playing around, right?).

Hi, I made Tweak.zip (i extracted tweak.apk from booletproof 1.1) for flash it by CWM, but don't works fine.

After flashed, the app is in /system/app with 0644 permissions, but with no visible changes, where was i wrong?

Can you help me? In attach my file.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
The tweaks need coded into the ROM, It's not as simple as just installing the apk, I would think some SystemUI smali needs edited also for any tweaks to Rosie, the Rosie.apk smali files will need an edit, so it knows what to change otherwise your just looking at the possibilities of the tweaks app.

I just did a Rosie remap for my Sense 2.1+3.0 Speedy ROM, and even though the option had always been in MikTweaks I had decompile tweaks to activate the remap option for my ROM ( by default It's turned off for Sense 2.1 ROMS ). Then I had to decompile Rosie and make the smali change. Then compile and resign both apps and i was good.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yellowjacket1981:
If you are really needing those tweaks, you can use the kitchen to apply most of them.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] antonaq:
Compile? Decompile? More difficult for me then... I abadone the idea to realize Tweaks.zip. :-)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankdrey:
Ok so I decided to remove all google related apps using console in recovery before booting into a freshly flashed ROM

First of all...the keylayout was all weird

As if it had not autodetected my tmobile keyboard (I have a rogers motherboard)...it was like that when I first put in the motherboard

So I rebooted into recovery and reinstalled google apps

I restarted and everything was fine.

I skipped signing in...

Then I removed all google apps from terminal emulator

And rebooted

It worked fine...everything was OK

But sometimes when I pick up my phone its off for some reason. I have to turn it back on.

Is this because I removed all google apps? Or is it just my motherboard flash memory getting worn out? Its the second phone it has been in...

Or is this because I have a rogers motherboard in a tmobile phone. Because there's one more thing I've noticed. With DangerSPL I boot into fastboot by pressing Call + Power. But with the 2708+ kernel spl Call + Power or Back + Power don't work. I have to go through Camera + Power then Back.

Hmmm...well I'm gonna leave it probably on adb logcat overnight and if it turns off ill see what's wrong
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mishamosher:
The roger's MoBo differs a little of the T-Mo one, starting by the KB layout.

You can check this wiki for some reasons to don't be using the 2708+ mod in Roger's MoBo, in section "Why not convert to a EBI0 Radio?": http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Full_Update_Guide_-_Rogers_Dream_EBI1

If you check on that same wiki, the Roger's version of G1 uses a 3.x radio, not the 2.x ones. If you install a 2.x radio on a Roger's... it will do some crazy things :rolleyes:

By changing from a radio to another and all that, you'll not lose the avaibility to flash any of the roms that you're already using, the only thing needed to be changed is the kernel to use the apropiated specs of a Roger's MoBo.

Good idea to ckeck the logcat, and if u see some kernel hangs, it wouldn't be an bad idea to try with a 32A (Roger's) kernel and radio.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankdrey:

I don't think so, voltage regulators, soldier, so many cables needed, etc... it isn't just a cable USB-like, it's like 6 cables that must be soldered to the phone's MoBo, with electricity regulator and all that thing, kinda lab experiment thing xD!

And... who said I'm just short of money? Have to work to can at least live is a really common case here where I am. Not to mention have enough money conditions to buy electronics and PC's, it's kinda paradise here :o

Do you have any issues with telephone or data service after changing the motherboard? I noticed the service manual calls for tuning the phone again after a motherboard change, so I wondered if it is really that sensitive or not. I have a broken phone with a good motherboard I wanted to use to fix another one with a bad motherboard, so I wondered if I could expect to run into trouble or not. Both are T-Mobile phones.

frankdrey is correct. i have gone threw 30+ g1s, i swap motherboard all the time (never a rogers into a ebi0 but im sure its ok) havent ran into any problems with the swap, but i always have rooted them and upgrade all about them. only real difference is that if for some reason you need to know the imei you cant look behind the battery but need to check in settings. common sense i know but just telling you the only difference i could see.

Never really thought about Verizon but I'm to the point were I've had it with sprints ****ty service, so i got a few questions im a little hesitant about jumping to Verizon since their Android lineup seems lackluster (getting the nexus but probably only for a year then would get another phone) anybody hear anything about them acquiring better Android phones in the future, also been to the development section an don't see much activity going on for the LTE version any reason for this? Maybe due to how new it is? Any comments about Verizon as a service provider would be welcome also...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akanatrix:
In my opinion, Verizon gets a pretty good lineup of phones. The Galaxy Nexus, Rezound, Razr, etc. As far as a carrier, very expensive but you get what you pay for.
