[Motorola Droid X2] griz.droidx:
A silly mistake on my part.

.

I did try wiping playstore data, and tried various versions of the play store. I tried wiping and uninstalling play services, which we need for the most part for some apps to work. I'd forgot about the destroy market links option.

The actual answer is here in the hide section, I haven't figured out or rather took the time I guess to make these posts that pretty

BUT... guess what the problem was with the play store not working all along... I never would have thought about it and only discovered it by accident. It turns out that I was using an old theme for GB that I had used since the days of my DX. The Mixer series by MrDSL. I've always loved his themes. Of course everyone has their own taste, but cherry mixer is what really did it for me I've always loved that theme, and always used it on CM7. As soon as I changed themes from the mixer series to Eyecandy or almost any other theme, the Play store started working again.

Thanks very much for you help and for your awesome documents and links on google docs and your collection of files. I can't tell you how many times I've referenced your material. I mean a lot. Sometimes it's much easier to look through your documents than to search through a thread on XDA. or Droidxforums, or anywhere, Rootz seems to be spamed to death.

So I just want give you a huge thank you for all your resources. I found a ton of stuff for the DX and CM7 in general that you can't get because of dead links now. If you want any of it for your collection let me know.

While CM7 runs great, many apps are few and far between. I can't get videos from Youtube to play now. And I have to freeze Youtube anyway to get rid of that pesky sync icon. Seems like I remember another fix for that sync icon but can't remember where, I do know that freezing or uninstalling YouTube fixes it.

I sbf'd again, and again, I didn't have to re-activate. In my opinion just luck again. I've been reading about CM10 and CM9 a lot lately for the DX2 but I can't figure out why the last time I was on CM10 that my DX2 was so painfully slow. This is compared to Kitkat on the DX which should have been slower. Maybe it's because of the lack of support from Nvidia. I'm going to keep reading, but I know I won't get the stability or battery life I do with CM7. At the same time, I'm missing out on so many apps. So, I'm going to keep reading about CM10 A3 which is supposed to be far more stable than CM9, but I've read through posts where people used both as their dailly drivers. The last time I used CM10 A3, the dialer really worked poorly too. And I couldn't get the torch to work in quick settings. No disrespect to DKZ (Dragon Killerz I thnk his name is) without whom I probably wouldn't even have these two choices.

I know you said to run either Eclipse (I downloaded your Eclipse 2.3 nanadroid), but it'd have to be themed. Maybe I could use an xposed module or the Ultimate Online Kitchen. because the links for the Eclipse themes are dead now. I do have the Titanium theme but it's for Eclipse 2.1. There may not be a huge difference, but I'm betting the difference is there which is probably why although it worked, Eclipse didn't run as it should have.

If you have any advice, on CM9 or CM10 please let me know. Or even MIUI based on CM9, I've read good things about it too. but being based on CM9, it'll have the same bugs. Or should have. Some have reported that somethings worked better in MIUI based on CM9 vs CM9 itself. I'm sure I probably just need to stick with CM7, as it was running very well, except that I couldn't watch a youtube video, usually the error given was that "This video could not be played, click to try again" or similar. I've tried removing Youtube, and installing and trying different video players to no avail, as well as, installing different browsers. Again, to no avail.

Thanks again, and if you want APEX with some themes to add to you DX collection or anything let me know. I'm going to be cleaning the drive with those items on there soon and I'll try to make you a list of what I have for the DX. I didn't though away much. I did get rid of some old CM builds for the DX since we have Pooka's CM and the boot menu. I used to run either that or WizardOO's MIUI with his bootmenu.. Personally, I always thought that bootmenu he developed was the bee's knee's. (I'd better not say I thought it was the Shee IT.) I'm sure there are youngin's who read these boards too. And I shouldn't use foul language even though to me they're just words. LIke any other words in the dictionary. They've just acquired a bad connotation through the years kinda like how in Europe, nudity isn't such a big deal, Even in public baths, both men and women used those together. Sorry I got off topic..

Thanks again for your hard work in assembling your collection of lnks and documents. I have to wonder though why you don't include Molten or MIUI in your DX2 listings.

Thanks one more time Shadow....

Now that I've thought about it, maybe the reason youtube isn't playing in CM7 is due to the theme I'm using, but I doubt it.
