I reflashed everything new and used the 7-26 gapps and like poster above Google now FC's every time also.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
I don't get it. For some people the 7/26 GAPPS work for some people and the 8/11 GAPPS work as well. In this case use 8/11 GAPPS to see if the issue goes away
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 32dave:
I dropped R4ins kernel in the zip booted no prob have to go to work now but if i run into any issues i will report in the morning
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
Sweet. Thanks for trying. I rather run the stock kernel at first and then give the option to flash a different kernel later.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
InstigatorX 6.34 does not work for me. :(

Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shadowswittness:
Flashed the 8-11 gapps and Google now says location services isn't on. In settings it says it is. Any ideas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
Happened to me too with 8-11. I would like to try 7-26 but my phone doesn't like InstigatorX's kernel, and my SD Card is f*cked up so I don't have access to my backups or to the other kernel that actually did work.

BTW great work, when it actually boots the ROM is fantastic. Super fast and sleek.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CRACKER031:
I ran into this same issue with instigators kernel. I found if I flash darksides kernel first and then flash instigators kernel then it boots. Try this for now n hopefully we'll get the kernel situation figured out here soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
alright, thanks for the info. Now I just gotta figure out how to get darkside's kernel on my phone's storage. When I try to mount the SD Card some error pops up, and if I Mount USB Storage to get my internal memory mounted to my desktop it comes up with an error as well.

I might just have to ODIN back to stock ICS and start over... Oh well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shadowswittness:
No matter which gapps I flash or which kernel I flash Google now and location services fail and FC's. Any ideas guys ? I've flashed both 7-26 and 8-11 with venom and instigator kernels
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
I have no idea. I'm going to upload another build tomorrow with a fixed kernel so we can eliminate the kernel issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shadowswittness:
That works. Thanks again for everything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CRACKER031:
Thanks R4INS for the idea to pull the kernel from your AOKP rom and the use of it too of course. Here's the same initial build but with R4INS stock kernel. You can now flash without having to flash separate kernel. BigShotRob will update the OP tomorrow when he can get to his computer. Until the here you go. I flashed with just cache wipes from the same build with no issues.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
No problem. I also lack a skyrocket at the moment (sister has it), so ive been using testers as well.

But, I'm always available to help out with this rom if its needed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] reyradi:
Did you wipe cache and dalvik?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
Yep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] reyradi:
You check if the download is correct? Because im running the rom with 6.3.4 for a few days and everything its ok
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
Its hit or miss for some people. Some phones can handle different things especially kernels. I know my phone (gnex) can't handle a few different kernels. Although my tester says if he flashes the venom kernel and then flashes the instigator one, it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
UPDATE OP: New Instructions and Download Links. Same Build but with fixed kernel Issue. Thanks R4INS! Enjoy guys!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bigshotrob22:
Appreciate the helping hand!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
Yep. Cracker's idea worked - I flashed the Venom kernel then Instigator's and it's working like a charm. And the battery life is awesome too.

One last question though - Any idea what I can do about the Google Now / search FC issue? On Rains' gapps and InstigatorX's kernel GNow automatically FCs. I haven't tried flashing the 8-xx Gapps but when I used them on the Venom kernel yesterday it loaded fine but told me location services was disabled, which it wasn't.

It's no big deal, I don't think google now would be useful to me anyways, but it seems like it could be cool to play with though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CRACKER031:
The 8/11 gapps is the only gapps I can use Gnow on w/o fc issues...That is the only issue tho is that it shows location services off. It doesn't seem to effect gnows ability to do navigational searches tho. Something that's easy to live with until we can find what's causing it to show that its disabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shadowswittness:
I had the exact same issues. With the gapps. The kernel flash with venom first and instigatorx second worked great for me.

What the hell is a vanilla? LOL! Do you mean icecream sandwich or jellybean?

Yup closest thing we are ever going to have to a full AOSP Vanilla experience is with CM10/AOKP.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Crisisx1:
What's better cm10 or aokp
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RaymondPJR:
That's a question that only you can answer by trying both. I had AKOP on my Vibrant before I bought this phone, and it has more customizations than AOSP. In that way AKOP diverges from Stock Vanilla Android. That being said, there is no way I'm putting anything but stock Samsung on my phone. I just need to wait for a good theme to get rid of the Lifesavers-like Samsung theming and it'll be perfect.

Just flash the cm10 or the euroskank nightlies

My data speeds are the same or better

Gnex is outdated

This phone is a beast
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bradleyw801:
Essentially you are correct. A Nexus device will always be the best way to have the latest and greatest, most bug free, seamless, pure android experience. AOSP will always come close, but you will still always be getting early beta builds as opposed to stable OTA updates from Google. These betas usually start to catch up about the time the next version is released.

But, if your phone is rooted, you can come so close to a vanilla feel and look on a stock Touchwiz rom, that it will be almost indistinguishable. With themes, launcher replacements, and removing/replacing bloatware, it can really get close.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sarni84:
Your going backwards the s3 has better hardware. And if u flash cm10 you are good to go. Don't listen to some of these dudes. Its as vanilla as it will get. I had the gnex and the s3 running cm10 which is jb is faster and has more tweaks. Then the gnex basically its very similar. And as far as data goes idk y some of these people bug out dude do u really notice a difference from 7mbps to 15.....NO!!!! Cuz I don't! Everything is kosher. Op the s3 running an aosp (vanilla) ROM is pretty much flawless has a few quirks but def a dd. ....dig in

Hi there

I am looking for somewhere to start with android app development can someone point me at some apps to start coding. Mac or PC apps are fine, thanks and sorry if this is in the wrong section
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lviv73:
I been searching for.some time now for any educational apps for my 18 months son with little luck.

Most apps are geared towards older children,not to mention not too many have child lock on them to prevent children from hitting capacitive buttons.Seem like all good children's apps or on ipad/iPhone and I won't to avoid this option if I can help it.

Anyone know of any good apps?

Here are few apps that I have so far that are usefull and not too complicated for children that are 1-3 years old.

1 Toddle Animal Numbers (Probably the best one,its educational and its free)

2 Undersea Adventure for Toddler (Not really educational but a fun and simple game,and its free)

3 Kids Doodle Paint (Best thing about this is that it has child's lock built in,so you can go to sleep while they draw and not have to worry about them turning it off,this one is free too)

And that's about it,yeah I know that's a damn shame.Rest that I tried is to complex.

My son has his own GS2(No I'm not rich,lol).

Here is my story.

He threw my Epic Touch GS2 in the toilet(Probably dipped it few times,idk).I took it apart,dried it real good and put it in the oven for few minutes,and guess what?It still worked!!But with one flaw,the power button stopped working.

The power button works only once to power on the phone,but after the phone is on power button doesn't work any more.So in order for me to unlock the screen I need to do one of the following:

1 Connect the USB cord

2 Receive a txt or call

3 Or pull out the battery and turn on the phone again

All this made my GS2 pretty much useless as a phone.But I found a use for it.

I mounted the phone by my son's bed on the wall,plugged in the USB charger to the outlet that is connected to a lightlight switch.So if I want to unlock the screen I just hit the light switch,light switch acts as the power button.

I'm surprised that he didn't get a ass whoopin for this,but one good thing that came from all this-now its easy for us to put him to sleep,lol.And if it wasn't for this I wouldn't have bought my GS3,though I think I like my Epic Touch little better than my GS3.

Here is some pics.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xjayman:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lviv73:

I don't know if anyone mentioned it...but the Amazon App Store is perfect for this! If you don't already have it, you can get it by visiting Amazon's mobile website and downloading the appstore there or downloading the Amazon app on the Play Store and getting it there.

The Amazon Appstore gives out a free paid app everyday, meaning that you can get an app, that normally costs X dollars, for free. Lots of these apps have been recently directed towards children with puzzles and other sorts of activities for young children. I imagine that there are many more on this appstore that you can find.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lviv73:
I get always get free paid apps.But yet to find any use full educational apps yet.Yeah. it Amazon is a good alternitive to Market.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ndh777:
Educational? Yeah...you've got me there. Most of them have been just entertaining puzzles and other fun, mindless entertainment. Luckily for us with Android, we can go download apks. Perhaps you can try searching some educational websites and see if they host their own apps that you can download from their websites?

I love using both markets. I use one for free apps, mostly, and the other because I'm used to it. Glad to know you have it. I'll let you know if I see any educational apps out there.

Kid Mode Apps

I installed a free app from the Market called "Zoodles". This app is great because you can use it completely free, or enhance the child's experience even further by paying for certain features. My favorite thing about this app is the fact that it can completely lock down your phone, so the child doesn't inadvertantly switch apps and begin prank calling people over seas. You are not restricted to the apps that come with the program either. You can specify apps, already installed on your phone, to be accessed from each individual account you've setup. You can have multiple accounts setup within the app. I currently have four, one for my 4 yr old daughter, one for my 2 yr old daughter, one for my soon-to-be-here son (due Nov 17th :), and one for my 5 yr old niece (who had to have an account after she saw my oldest daughter playing it). You receive weekly progress emails for each child, showing you the type of apps they accessed and the relevant learning skills those apps focused on. The apps available for each child are tailored to their specified age, which you indicate at the time of setup.

I can't say enough good things about this app. I've used it without paying a dime, and have been very pleased thus far. Every once in a while I'll get an email stating my oldest wants to read a book, which would require me to make an individual purchase. I might purchase some books and video record myself reading them to her, if I begin traveling with my job again. For now though I'm grounded at home, and that means I get to have reading time with my daughters every night, so the purchased books aren't needed.

Another feature with the paid version is you can customize which characters your child has access to. For example, we don't allow shows starring a certain aquatic animal that lives in a tropical fruit under the sea. If I paid for the subscription, I could completely restrict any app featuring this undesired influence. None of the apps my children have access to feature unwanted characters, yet, so I'm holding off on the subscription.
