Sent on the go from my HTC EVO

Can we just flash this and do nothing else or does this require a whipe or something? Also sorry for the noob question but why do we need to update the market?

thanks for the heads up.

From what I can tell, the icons are all new. Although maps is older version and will get updated via Market and icon will be replaced back to normal. Other than that, not much difference.

It has the Google search app and the updated Voice Search.

Would love to know why there is a Twitter client in the gapps package.

does anyone know where i can get GAPPS for CM6?....i just rooted about 30 mins ago and im totally lost and every link is broken......i really need some help LOL....i know that sounded desprate

we have moved on to cm7, can still get the cm6 gapps at http://goo-inside.me/

wow thats real overwhelming to me LOL....should i just flas CM7?.....would that be a better option for me? (and is everything included with CM7?)....sorry for all the questions...did my homework on rooting, but all the stuff that comes after root im not so keen on.....thank alot

can you tell me which one i need for my particular ROM?>
HDPI
MDPI

cm7 nightlies have 4g now, they are working very well and have everything that cm6 had, there are a few minor issues such as dialer wakelock, titanium not auto restoring, slow pc to phone transfers

ok cool....but im having a problem....i downloaded CM7 onto my PC and dropped it into my SDcard....went to the bootloader and selected RECOVERY....but its not taking me to the Clockwork MOD....its just giving me the option to REBOOT, REBOOT BOOTLOADER, AND HBOOT USB..........did i do something wrong?....this is the first time im flashing a ROM over another
P.S. Do i have to delete Cm6 thats in my SDcard, then drop CM7 into the SDcard.....then try to go into recovery?....im not really sure

[Q] G-sensor/accelerometer/auto rotate not working

hi,i just bought zte blade, rooted, installed cwm, upgraded to gen 2 using tpt method, and installed CM7, stable 7.0.3, also tried RC1, latest nightly and a few random nighlies
and my problem occurs in all of them.... auto rotate isnt working... IT IS TURNED ON in sttings,tried to turn on of tried to reboot tried to wipe everything tried factory reset nothing helps... and i see im not the first one with this problem but all of the topics started about this issue have 0 replies.. this bug is not stated anywhere in changelogs and in fact it makes CM7 unusable on ZTE Blade.. cause you cant always message and browse and do everything in portrait view... i heard its a kernel issue that every overclock enabled kernel on device upraded from g1 to g2 makes accelerometer or g sensor or w/e you call it stop working.. i really love cm7 and i bought this phone thinking im gonna use it on it and this issue is really frustrating please help someone.. please

Try another ROM like Swedish Spring or Ginger Stir Fry and if it still occurs in those ROM's then it's probably a hardware fault.

same hi
hi there, ive bought my blade 2 days ago, and got the same issue you are talking about, i flashed it to swedish and find out that auto-rotate doesnt work, so ive tried different kernel that should have helped, but istead blade didnt even boot, ive also tried newest CM7 with no luck...kinda desperate and confused that there are just few threads about this and no real solution, thinking of going back to stock froyo, but iam afraid of bricking...if u find any solution write here or on email, ill do the same if i find one, thx

New Blades seem to have different sensor hardware. Try Sensor List from market and compare the results with this screen (from Orange San Francisco bought earlier this year):
db.tt/ms5m4i6
(can't post links)

yes your right, thats the source of the problem, my accelerometer is not the same as yours.. heres the screen tinyurl dot com slash 3tqv26o
now me and other peaople wold like to know if there is a way to modify kernel to work with this hardware... i think cm7 developers should be intersted in resolving this

didnt know that, people posting about this on CM7 forums dont get much attention
if they really manage to get it to work that will be my uber happy day like when i had wildfire stock 2.2 and alpharevx came out

I also have the same problem, will hit modaco forums n check if there`s something on it.

Can we calibrate those sensor?

Got my blade yesterday...auto rotate was working well till i upgraded to gen2 and installed cm7. I have being doing a lot of research on that...so if anyone comes up with a workaround, please inform
P.S i am not uninstalling cm7, thats the best rom i have ever seen

Now Brian n the rest, there is no work around on it, tried changing different kernels without success, finally flashed cm7 n installed Ginger Stir Fry, its been 3 days n everything is fine, but remember u`ve already upgraded to Gen 2, so no need of Tpt install, just get the Rom, its also very good at preserving power. with problems hit me up on twitter @alexakams

i also use Ginger Stir Fry because AutoRotation dont work with cm7. its a clean and fast rom, but Elitemovil Blade_Rom is also an option.

Android Market missing after installing GingerDX v019. Need Help

Hi Guys!
Good Morning XDA-Dev Team! Im new to this site and I kinda need help.
I just bought my Xperia X8 2 days ago I tried installing some custom roms on it.
Im new to this kind of thing and here's the story.
I was using the stock 2.1 on my Xperia and I rooted it and installed xRecovery.
I then installed the custom rom FroyoBread v023 and everything was great!
Now I wanted to try the GingerDX v19 but it needed the CWM ROM.
That's where I started to get confused.
I dont know how to install the CWM ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1119456
I installed it using xRecovery (AMEND) but im not sure if I did it correctly.
After that, I then installed GingerDX v019 and it was successful!
but the Android Market was missing and I dont know where to find it.
I did a full wipe, wipe cache, dalvik cache, battery wipe in CWM but still same issue.
Have I done something wrong? Did I miss something?
Thanks in advance for all the replies guys!
I really appreciate it.

have you already logged in to your google account?
it usually showed up after that

You need to sign in to your google account.
If it's still not there then just search for the apk and install it.

thanks to both of you! it now showed up!
anyway, i think the gingerDX v019 has a small bug...
it seems that the small button on the notification screen for the silent/vibrate/sound mode doesnt work well... it wont switch to another mode on mine... hmp... w/c is very important to me for easy access to silent mode when im in the office...
have u guys experienced that as well?

[PORT][Help] XperiaFire - Xperia rom for Wildfire

Hi, first of all I should tell you that I'm not very experienced in rom porting/building in fact I have just basic knowledge of it so I will need help. I'm trying to port an Xperia x10 mini rom to Wildfire. It boots but reboot after a while, I'm trying to fix it. But for now, my Wildfire is on reclamation (broken speaker, not bricked phone ) so I'm not able to try it.
I've choosed this rom for porting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504633 and CM 7.2 RC1 as a base.
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?k82z19yk6dzhapo

oh ok, i will see after i installed MIUIV4

Is every thing working on this rom ?
Sent from my still alive, ICS capable HTC Wildfire.

no, its still rebooting after few sec.

If you are able to underclock the device before it reboots, give it a try. Else, do it manually before installing the rom, there are some guides about editing system files.

i wasn't able to run it trough boot manager, not even with ext2/ext4
so i guess we need to edit kernel to underclock it, tough my images always fails
cheers, will try this soon

Xbox Smartglass

Hey guys,
Just wondering, are we ever going to get this working on our devices?
Apparently it requires android 4.x, tried side loading it and got a "parse error" (Downloaded multiple apk's - Same error)
Hopefully someone will be able to mod a version? if not will microsoft release a version for older model phones?
If anyone has an info please let me know, was really hoping to use this feature but looks like i might need to upgrade my phone.
Thanks much appreciated.
NB: Searched through the other related posts regarding the app but found nothing on making it backwards compatible or anything relevant on getting it to work on older android versions.

What rom are you using???
How did you get this to work???
Is everything working accurately?
I tried editing my build.prop and changed it to 4.0 but still failed to install, parse error as well.
I was just starting to give up hope on getting this to run...
Please help.
Can you perhaps post the apk that your using and maybe any other information on getting this to work on my desire??

Hey thanks for the feedback, yeah i did eventually get it to work using the jellynow 5.1 rom, turns out it works fine on most jelly bean & ics, was hoping to get to work on mildwild rom because its my "stable,everyday, multipurpose use rom" but doesn't look like its possible i've read somewhere it was because of the missing resources in older roms and editing the Build.prop wouldnt solve the issue because of that,so anyways i use two roms daily, the first is the mildwild for work and outdoor use and the second is the jellynow 5.1 when im at home and want to use smartglass.
It's a lil bit of an effort to switch through roms everyday, but it gets job done, well at least until i find a stable newer rom.
Speaking of which, i noticed you posted the CM10 Jelly Bean, I've never tried that one? how's it? any suggestions you could give me?
Either way thanks again.
