another method you can try is that if you have another android device, go to data/app and extract the gmail apk onto your exhibit and install it manually. Upon further updates, google play store will notify you and you won't get the "invalid package error" warning again.

I don't know why you could have trouble with adding gmail I didn't have any problems but I did encounter sync is saying syncing error but its works so its not a issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
I wiped and reinstalled rom.. Gmail installed fine but now my google search is showing invalid packet.. So i removed my gmail account and added back.

No luck.. So not sure what to try next...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
when you first installed the rom with the gapps package, there's a list of apps that needs to be updated. Click the update all button first, and then go to the play store and download gmail.

make sure you're using the right apps package and not some modified version
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Well i just went in and changed the lcd dpi and after the 3rd reboot.. It worked.. So idk what the fix was.. Lol

Thanks guys for ur help. Its what i love about these forums.

Anyone tried dirty flashing 8/10 on top of 8/3? Does it work?

I did a clean install of 8/3 a couple of days ago only :crying: :p

By the way insane battery life with no SIM card installed and Wifi only enabled. :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
No , it clearly says to wipe everything so people would not dirty flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joelrg:
Something obvious, but I've found if I disable both WIFI and mobile data my battery will last a few days as opposed to half a day. So I don't think it battery drain is a ROM issue, likely more a driver issue. I'm sure it isn't this easy, but it would be nice if we could just pop in the old drivers from the factory ROM. Again, I doubt they'd be compatible, but those drivers would be a place to look.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
Most apps have push notifications. If you don't have WIFI on, that means there are no processes in the background to work your phone. If your phone is not working, then there's no battery drain at all.

Then again, if you don't have wifi on, what's the point of getting a smartphone?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] schuylkillparanormal:
You could try reflashing if the problem still remains try flashing to stock and see if you still dont have data. aalso maybe calling tmobile and check everythings ok with your data plan and have them try to trouble shoot on there end if all fails
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joelrg:
The apps are still running though, they just cant send/recieve data - it's not like they terminate themselves when they dont have a connection. Although there probably is a bit of a power saving there anyway, I do think the bulk of the savings is with the devices being turned off. Beyond that, the same apps installed on a factory rom - using the same data - don't drain the battery that would be consistant with what we get now.

Trust me it is a PITA, enabling and disabling data whenever I want to do something "smart" with my phone. But it means that at 8:00pm I can still text and call, not search for a plug. So it works for me.

Anyway, just throwing out an idea as to the culprit - please dont take any of this as complaining about battery life. These ROMs have been a godsend to this phone.

Has anyone used the kernel from jfbs yet with the rom any noticeable diff with battery. Please let me know of your experiences so we can have a consensus. Thanks jfbs for the work Ive been swamped lately and I dont really like messing with the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] schuylkillparanormal:
Seems kinda sluggish and it freezes alot and the screen goes white. Not as smooth as the 3.4 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
I've used his kernel. It was very buggy with the 8/3 build but worked amazingly on the 8/10 build. It's been known that there's the white screen bug but a simple "turn off, turn on" would make it go away. The battery life has been pretty good, and the drainage is less compared to not using it.

This is kind of unrelated but since it's using another kernel, the Team Insomnia logo is no longer there, which can be appealing to some, including me.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
How u do install this? My 8/10 build has been very slow and sluggish today...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
I did it all at once when I was starting fresh.

1. Wipe everything

2. Install 8/10 ROM

3. Install GAPPs

4. Install kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] schuylkillparanormal:
Its been a pain dealing with freezing and animation being sluggish had to reflash id wait til someone tweaks it a little. And haven't seen much battery difference with heavy use. Im getting awsome battery life with my new 2900 mh battery. Also charges much faster to.:D honstley I'd rather the 3.4 kernel just smoother no problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
I've kept the kernel stock until I, or someone across the pond, find an appropriate solution. Less is less, that's why it isn't smeared with lipstick atm. I'll post a newer kernel with 3.4.57 if there's any interest, but it's only for rev.3 lcd's.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Has anyone else noticed any slowdowns with stock kernel and 8/10 build?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
I found these 2 apparent bugs in the 8/3 build. Can someone confirm if they are also present in the 8/10 build (I wasn't sure if the OP contained all changes or just the major changes)

1) The dark theme in messaging cannot be disabled by deselecting "use dark theme" in the settings of the messenger

2) The "voice dialer" app doesn't work. It just stays at "starting up".

I'm not complaining about the apparent bugs. I'm actually loving the ROM. I may change my wife and son's over to AOIP soon.

Iong as it runs smooth and opens apps faster im all for it. Battery life is what it is to bad you cant sell on here because i can get a great deal on 2900mh battery in bulk plus i can get silicon backs for like a dollar each.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mwhitt:
i use voice dialing constantly everyday, have had 0 problems with it so far on any build
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Thanks. That's interesting. I can "voice search" just fine to do dialing by voice, but not "voice dialing". See attached image for what I see. It just stays like that (starting up). Perhaps it is just my particular flash.

I have one more question: The recent apps listing that is shown when long-pressing the home button is now a horizontally scrolling list. Previous roms have had a vertical one. Is a vertical listing an option in this ROM? I can't find a setting for it. Anyone know if it is a setting?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mwhitt:
That is how it scrolls now, don't believe there is a setting for that.

That's a screenshot of what I see when I voice dial
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] schuylkillparanormal:
Just download Open Mic for Google now in the play store and just erase voice dialer I'll give you that always listing app thats built in the moto x but you can rephrase the hotword or use built in wave control. Ive been talking to the developer and he'll be adding addittional voice commands like answerind ending call ect. Were google now doesnt support shortly.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Well I had to go back to the 8/5 version and its running so much smoother and quicker..

I also love the AOIP logo as my wallpaper.. but the red clashed with the awesome blue icons... so I made this...

Wanted to make it available to anyone who wanted it...

DOWNLOAD LINK
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] schuylkillparanormal:
I think that would and the red one would make an awsome live wallpaper. Cam tim and smart guy should make one and should offer it for an dollar donation to aoip users to help support there work on there website. Also if aoip started of blue and started to bleed red and it started to flat line that would be awesome to.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mrlamo:
I thought this was totally acceptable. This is still the 8/3 build, hadn't taken the time for the new build. I'm using the stock kernel and turning of wifi and data when not using it, easy enough with the power widgets.

Thanks team insomnia!!

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joeG78:
The OP does say to wipe and do a clean flash, and I recommend that for everyone.

However, for those that are like me and dirty flash everything, a simple reflash of the gapps package when you flash the rom, then remove and re-add your google accounts should fix any sync/play store issues you may have....YMMV as I repeat, the OP says wipe and clean flash....
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
I have the PNG file already, just was hoping there was a file in the system files that holds the image file for the menu backgrounds and I could just use ES Explorer to switch it out to the smoke.

I've been using it for the last 2 days and with my normal usage I don't see much of a difference in battery life. As others have pointed it out it is sluggish plus the white screen.

With that said, am going to use it because - and I don't know if anyone else has the same issue, but my phone seems to not like the OC kernel. I would get freezes and when the phone restarts I get boot loops and only way to fix it is to wipe davlik/cache.

Battery percent # in status/notification bar please :)

Sorry for the basic question but i can not find the option for my life....I want to have the percentage of the battery on/next to the battery on the status/notification bar :) Seems to be much more useful than making the lockscreen always display the percentage, and the option has been on mostly every ROM I've been through for quite some time. If there is not an option I would ask if we could incorporate it as an option into the AOIP settings or wherever appropriate. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] teerout:
I have not loaded the latest build of AOIP, but in the 6/3 build at least, there are options for battery display under AOIP settings > status bar> battery icon. If im understanding your wants, i dont think you can have battery icon and percentage next to each other, but within the same icon...

I've started to try out the Halo.. i'm a little confused.

I wanted only my SMS messages to pop up.. so I set the option as "white list" (where I think it says it will block all notifications expect for the ones I listed.. so I selected the SMS.. then hit play.

when I received some messages, they didn't show up in my halo unless I dragged my finger to the left...

then I switched it to the black list.. and removed SMS.. (which now I think ALL notifications will go to Halo.. I received an Email and it popped up like I was hoping for..

Is there a way to remove the halo bubble completely until a notification comes? or will that disable halo and not allow the notifications?

I know many of us have tried so many different audio mods out there like ACID, Beats, Awesome Beats, MusicFX, etc. Honestly I have never been all that satisfied with any of them. I stumbled upon this today, it's called ViPER4 by [MENTION=3901724]zhuhang[/MENTION] available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

Very nice surround effects and so far working with with our device. Installation is not for the inexperienced though, so read the OP thoroughly! BTW says for processors ARM11 & above but seems fine with our ARM7.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
the instructions are pretty clear, i must say. I agree with artfuldodger. It does take some time to go through it step by step before trying it out.

what sort of differences have you noticed in terms of the audio quality compared to stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ArtfulDodger:
Surround sound is much more spatial/adjustable and has settings like a home audio receiver, not just generic settings like "studio" or "large room". One of the biggest benefits I've noticed (so far, have to stress) is that the app isn't killed every few seconds like DSP manager/Awesome Beats. There are just so many more settings to experiment with too and the sound can be amplified to be much louder if that's what you want. Poweramp and other music apps have preamp controls but they don't do much. Note this app has IRS libraries such as HTC Beats & more to choose from too.

Thing with ACID and Clear Audio is that all they did was boost the loudness and nothing else. They just never fully worked either. Awesome Beats adds a little more bass but really is just a glorified version of DSP manager. Again though, users be prepared to do some work to get this going on your phone. I'd say if you're new to all of this just don't try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
I will give it a shot tonight. Hopefully I will have a similar experience as you.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ArtfulDodger:
I have found one problem with this mod. It really eats up memory and CPU. If you try to multi task with this running the mod will crash and the phone will freeze a lot. Don't listen to music while using Google Now for sure!

BTW my music never sounded better. On a better phone there would be zero problems. I guess you have to weigh the pros and cons on this, but I am really into my music so I guess I will live with this drawback. If you care more about speed & performance I wouldn't use this.
