[EVO 4G Android Development] Golayitdown:
Everything looks great so far, but I have one problem.

I can't reinstall the Twitter for Android application. It doesn't show up in the phone's market, but it does show up on the market.android.com site. It appears, but I can't install because the "item is not compatible with your device".

Has anyone had this problem?

I can use the many other ones in the market, but I got used to the official app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bballer71418:
Awesome...can't wait till you get that honeycomb lockscreen added!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
Did you try to clear market cache? That should fix the issue.

Yea I know I had it working but it was FC'ing left and right. I'm going to try to rewite on of the current lockscreens to simulate it. I will have to add the animation to the current then add the ids the drawable ect(...) so there is a lot of coding to be done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Golayitdown:
I tried to restore with titanium backup and it wouldn't restore. Then I cleaned the market cache. Still wouldn't show up in the market. I even reinistalled the rom from scratch and tried to use the Market Updater that only shows up once to install it. Said app not found.

I don't know what the problem could be. But that "item is not compatible" message gives me some kind of hint. There's something the market app/market website doesn't like about the phone/rom when it comes compatibility with the twitter app. Don't know if it's a value in the build.prop file that I could change or what.
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
I think I found out what is the cause so I'll get to it when I get hime.

Alright I tried to pull The blue GB keyboard but couldn't fond the apk. for it any help in how to accomplish this
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
If you want the keyboard do

./adb pull/system/app/LatinIME.apk or if you downloaded the ROM just extract it and go into the system app and pull the apk of that way.

Remember the apk is named LatinIME.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
thanks had done this but wasnt sure since i havent been able test.thanks!!!!

Edit okay just tried installing it on cm7 but to no avail also changed the permissions and deleted the previous latinime.apk found on cm7 am i missing something else ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
If you want to put the apk in the ROM you are running, just click on the zip ( don't unzip) go to system>app then drag and drop the apk inside the directory (app). Then just reinstall the ROM good to go.

You wont have to wipe anything. how this clears it up for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
what do u mean by directory ??
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
A directory is a folder sorry

open the ROM of your choice but don't unzip it

go to /system/app

put my keyboard in the app folder ( it may ask you if you want to add it depends on if you use 7zip)

close all the windows and place the ROM on you phone install

hope that clears it up for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
yes it did thanks a ton sorry for the bother
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
No bother at all thats what we are all here for: to help each other out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Golayitdown:
Any word on the fix for the Twitter issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
are there any corresponding lib files tried adding it to mik-z and didn't work wondering if im missing something other then the latin im apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
I believe mik-z is sense ROM right? If so he is using the HTCIME which is a different lib.

The One you would need is libjni_latinime.so that is the lib for my keyboard.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
tried it and still no luck
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
Are you placing the apk in side the rom unzipped then reinstalling the rom?

sometimes the zip does not add the lib to the rom so make sure its in there to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
I'm working on it. I have just been so busy with school haven't had a chance to really look into it sorry.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bballer71418:
Hey op i no u have been working on a honeycomb lockscreen which would be totally sick...i also no how busy life is so i may have a small alternative

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=963576

Its the closest ive seen to a lockscreen like honeycomb and i have no idea how hard it will be to port but mayb u could do it?

But if your already long into one of your own of course just keep on keepin on...and always thanks for wat u do
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
what i did was open the rom with out unziping it placed the latin ime in system apps and the lib in system lib then resigned the rom and flashed it
[EVO 4G Android Development] B-dub25:
You don't need to resign it if you never unziped it. That right there may be you issue. If not I'll look into it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djnarcotics:
tried it with out signing and no luck

I've been looking around trying to find out what's so special with JS7 (apart from the obvious fact that it's new). I'm running Serendipity 5.12 and am planning on moving up to 6.2, which I know is based on JS7. Can anyone give me a rundown of what's different with JS7?
[Captivate General] ccdoggy:
Nothing is really different from the user's standpoint. its another build of the software from samsung, assuming that means improvements and better os management behind the OS.

it will look just the same. but smoother.

It's not only faster / smoother, it also fixes a heavy MVNO bug (roaming issues). " - Darkyy

Can anyone tell me how to fix this, I made a backup before installation however can't access recovery. I can however still access everything else on my phone, hence how I'm able to post here...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
What recovery were you running? What happens when you try to boot to recovery, does it just hang at the splash screen? If you want to restore a backup, then you should re-flash whatever recovery you were using when you made the backups. If you can still boot into the phone, the easiest way to re flash your recovery is using ROM manager. If you were using Amon Ra, first you'd need to select 'flash clockwork mod recovery'. Then when it finishes, select, 'flash alternate recovery'. That will flash you to RA. That should work for ya. If not, there are other ways of flashing a recovery. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASMAteMe:
I was able to flash RA so I was able to fix my problem, thank god!

I'm in the same boat, I flashed CM7 on Friday and on Saturday I pulled my phone out to record some bike riding to find out that the camera completely sucked, bluish tint on the videos and it completely froze my phone one time. And the regular camera horrible too.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] kicker22004:
Hi guys i looked at the forums and noticed not alot of custom boot animations going on.Anyways for all you Alienware lovers out there i've got 2 i've been messing around with to make work smooth. These are from the Aurura (my baby) screensaver so if you want to use then or if you have any idea's for different ones hit me up.I'll be posting them as soon as i'm sure they are done.

edit- Ok first one is done, Speed could very based on rom.

Link- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C3AI4508

YouTube link- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mJMRhX12zU <<not mine>>

Sorry if i'm breaking a site rule by posting a link please remove if i am, and guide me on how to share.

edit- Ok got the second done.Had to shorten it a bit and it decided to loop at the end...Left it because it looks cool.

Link-http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XXD4RQZI

YouTube link- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgTM4jd_hjk <<not mine>>

Instruction simply save this Bootanimation.zip to sdcard open root explorer and past it in /system/media (backup yours if you want) also if nothing is there check /data/local Android checks there first, Good luck and i hope you enjoy please post a video so others can see. I'll have the other up soon.

As of now i will no longer be continuing this, as i'm going to be leaveing XDA for some personal reasons ty all for your replies and i will be leaving this download up.As of now there are many other guides to making Bootanimations so Good luck all

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jpmi23:
I'll give it a whirl.

EDIT: I like the second one best, the darker one. I just wish that the loop would've been the alien's head. Also, I think it looks crisper that the first one.

I enjoy both, but would prefer either to be without the Alienware text. Good god though.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] kicker22004:
Wow i'm surprissed to see posts on this agian lol. I've been super busy areound here guys (Moving) I was actually about to remove the thread.

As for making them it's not really that hard.

Take a video for example......Clip off about 12-18 sec

-Reseze the video to 1024x600 (that can vary smaller is faster depending on size but you lose Quality)

-then take that new video and put it in a Avi-jpeg Converter and pull out all the Frames.

-from there you will just put them in a folder (part0)

-and then edit the Desc.txt file to resize to fullscreen and change FPS

-Layout of the Desc.txt should be

1024 600 X<<(X is the FPS faster if it's laggy)

p 1 0 part0

- p <unknown

- 1 <play the video 1 time

- 0 <Delay before moving to Part1 if there is a part 1

- part0 <the folder to Play

you can use any number of programes to do this it's very simple.

Then just zip it all up and if you use winrar remember to set it to STORE or it won't boot the video.

Then just move it to the Dir either /system/media Or /data/local

That's it, Sorry i'm not even close to good at writing Guides guys.

If anyone would like to rewrite this go right ahead and then hopefully we can get this Stuck and get more great animations.

When i get time to work on this agian i'm going to be tring to get boot sound while it's loading the video. Thanks agian guys and good luck making some Please post them in this thread so we don't have a million different threads :P
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:

There are some pretty cool boot animations in this section but they are buried.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] gogorman:
Can you elaborate on this? I have been trying to add a Boot Animation to VEGAn 5.

I downloaded the custom one for Ginger Edition and edited it to make it shorter (so it only flashes up Vegan) but when I save it all as the zip and place it in system/media and reboot, no boot animation shows. Just a black screen.

The tablet still boots, but neither the original Vegan boot nor the custom one shows.

Anyone ideas???
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Archangel:
from what i have been told, and what has worked for me take that exact same boot animation.zip and copy it into the logodata, system/media, and data/local file. Just copy and paste the bootanimation.zip file into all three locations using root explorer then reboot and mine worked fine. Let me know if this helps?

Has anyone managed to get a custom Boot Animation working on VEGAn 5?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyk:
Hey all,

I've got a G2 running CM7 RC2. One of the things that I loved about the stock rom was that swype was included. Unfortunately, CyanogenMod only has the default on-screen android keyboard. I made a backup image of my stock rom right before I installed CM. Is there any way that, if I backup my current configuration and reflash my backup of the stock rom, I could copy the package for swype over to the SD card to be reinstalled on CM? Even better yet, could I directly extract it from that image?

I could take the easy (warez) way out, but that isn't as appealing.

Thanks,
