Works great we just need to get the Samsung widgets ported over.

It works fine, just needs to be made for smaller screens, i have icons getting cut off on the menu and the text under the icon gets in the way, but it works none the less,
BTW if you try to download the .apk on ur phone from the site. it doesnt seem to download all the way, thats why the people getting the error is gettting it
thanks for the share tho.

I should be able to fix the overlap issues in the menu but there is no point until widgets are available.
**Edit: I found some of the Galaxy widgets, I will try to port them when I get a chance. I get a "app not installed" error when I try to install them. If anyone knows how to get these to work or wants to try just let me know and I'll post them here.

I'm running LauncherPro and if you enable the 3D launcher in the settings, IT WORKS!!!!!!!!! IT IS SO FRICKING COOL
Go to Preferences> Andvaced Settings> Use 3D Launcher

Listy - I havent tried it, but im sure if you push the apps/widgets using adb you should be able to get them in your phone.

What is the Best Screenshot App?

Ive tried a couple including one called screenshot with no luck. I cant seem to find one that actually works. I would like to update my signiture with my screens. I've also asked in a few threads about it with no luck
EDIT: Problem solved. Im using PicMe
shootme/picme works. You can find it free on market if you use 320 x480.

Agreed. I like Shootme. If you don't haver 320x480 market I think cp0020 posted the apk in his tips/tricks thread. Don't worry it's not a ware, as reddog stated, it's freeware
Thanks guys, i use 240x320. i did the market fix but i dont think it works anymore

Thanks i found it. Funny thing is, I checked this thread to see if someone mentioned a screenshot app and didnt see one. My apologizes.
ok, I just started up the app and it wants to use a shake procedure. and tells me, failed make sure i have root access. I changed it to movie mode and it took 500 pics in like 10 sec. lol Anyway to take a screenshot manually?
EDIT: i got it to say active shake phone to take a screen but that obviously dont work. What am i doing wrong?
Try PicMe.
I use that exclusively for all of my screenshots.
Works perfectly.
I got the job done guys thanks.
Myn, Does the server kick offline all the time for you or is it just me?

Occasionally. I believe it's androids built in memory manager purging the process as other items get loaded ontop of it. PicMe is a heavy application. It does a great job though when it's up.
Hey guys, I got PicMe from the Market but I'm having some trouble installing it.
It says:
"Failed starting server. Please check that you have ***ROOT*** access on your device... and enabled access to the lower level graphics."
Feedback would be appreciated.

Market Enabler?

Does anyone know anything about market enabler? From what I understand we may be able to use it to see/download market apps that we can't see with 2.1. I am not sure if it works. I installed it but I really don't know what settings to use or whatever. If anyone wants to test it out and see if it makes a difference, download attached.

Where did you get this file from?
I briefly read about market enabler on a hero thread somewhere. It sounds like people use this for better market access with cooked ROMS.
I got the actual .apk from here: http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/downloads/detail?name=MarketEnabler_3.0_beta.apk&can=2&q=
I did very little testing as I am not missing any apps specifically.
Seems like you may need root to use this one :\
It keeps saying "We Got a Problem Houston " every time I try something.

New Android Market V2.2.11

Just an FYI, I installed it and a bunch of stuff I couldn't find in the market before is there. ( I doubt it though )
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=P3SVF3IE
https://sites.google.com/site/droidlife24/home/Vending_2_2_11.apk?attredirects=0&d=1
Let me know what you think, I've had problems, so use at your own risk ( I should have put this earlier, I hope it didn't hurt anyone, as always back up first )
* I have been having wifi issues since this update. When it comes out of sleep the wifi wont connect automatically
might be jumping the gun trying market fix.

Cool.. Just loaded it on vegan beta 5.1. Seems to work just fine. Don't know if I see any more stuff, but never really had a problem finding things with the other ones.
I do notice that the appearance seems crisper. Like maybe they are using a higher quality. Or, maybe not.
Still the same for me. Stars still truncated. Missing apps still missing.
The new apk is about 600 MBA larger than earlier one.
Jim
Just for fun I went ahead and did the market fix again. Didn't need to but I saw the earlier post and was curious. I never could get it to open after the first reboot. Had to reboot again. Then once it started working I have noticed more of the "android.process.acore" errors, and server errors then with the older one. I will be rolling back to a previous version myself since this doesn't seem to really make anything better.
I wonder if there should be an updated GoogleServicesFramework with this?

Kind of wonder that myself. Did you notice any difference in the look? Like a higher res look for the fonts? Or was I just seeing things? That would sort of make sense for the size difference of the file I guess..
And I thought I was doing good. LoL dag nabbit

Works for me
I'm running vegan 5.1 with pershoots latest kernel and here are my findings thus far. I backed up market with titanium and installed the update, immediately opened market. Everything looks to be there, I searched for a few things and installed one or two. I looked for adw and couldn't find it, I did see its themes but not the app. Rebooted, loaded up market no fc's, until I tried to roll back to previous version to look for adw because I am almost certain it was there before. Interestingly I did see appbrain which I've never been able to get before. Never tried market fix, and did not notice any image improvement. Anyone know for certain what to look for to see if it actually improves previous market? I'm going to try and fix my market now and will report back if anyone's interested.
I installed via the apk (there is also an update.zip available) and all working well. No reboot or clearing Google Services Framework required.
I had previously preformed the well documented market fixes but could never quite get the entire market. Everything appears to show up now.
I'm not sure it is complete I can't find a few things. But then again I found a bunch of things I couldn't find before either. Catch 22 yet again.
anyone else having a problem with 'Media Volume' not working after this update? The rocker doesn't work, I tried to go in the settings (I had to unmute and turn the system sound back up - no dice), I even tried to play a video and turn up the sound using the software controls within that program....nothing works.
How do I revert back? Where is the old .apk located?
....also had to turn my wi-fi on with each reboot, which is new.
Running Vegan5.1
I think it would be most helpful if you guys actually listed the names of the titles of the apps that you either DO or DO NOT see once you have tried this. Just might help in the troubleshooting aspect. For what its worth.
ckelly,
search xda for market or vending.apk and you will find many versions to play with
Volume corrected on reboot #2.
Wi-Fi still needs to be manually connected..
@sixvolt
Since this appears to not improve things, you must have had even less apps show up than we did and this update brought you to par with the rest of us. Everything is relative

Car Home APK

If your like me, and like old school droid programs but cant get them to install on new age devices here is one. This is the Car Home apk for anyone that would like to use it. Install as you would any apk. If you run into any problems side load it from something like dropbox or push via ADB. Once you install both the launcher and the car home apk then boot into clockwork recovery and fix permissions, reboot and you should be good.
If you use and like hit the thanks button!
Just Asking Whereabouts of APK
Where did you get these from? I had a version of Car Home 2.2.1, but the icon looks the same as the Car Home I've seen in other ROMs. The icon with the 2.2.1 you have is different. Though I found it funny the need for the launcher. Because up until now I never needed it before to get Car Home working, but now just installing Car Home is not enough to get an icon on the list. Weird, but go with what works. But I am also a man who likes to understand where things come from or to understand. I try not to just be a follower.
Thanks for the find though, always nice to have a trusted source like XDA to share or find wanted items like this!

I ripped one from a droid 1 and the other from a droid 2 that i had a while back just optimized the images inside so they would work on the TB and not force close, glad you like, that is what this community is all about.

Pardon, but what do you mean by "fix permissions"?
Sorry haven't been on this site for a while. In CWR there is an option to fix permission which aligns all the permissions for all apk in a rom, hope this helps.
Thanks for posting this. I had Car Home on my Nexus One, but it was absent from my Galaxy Nexus. Since I've packed up my Nexus One to sell, you saved me from having to pull it. ;-)
awesome glad you like. I ported over to the galaxy nexus too

Yeah thanks for this man. Just loaded it on to my TB running Forever and it works great, I didn't even need to fix permissions or reboot.
Thanks always wanted to try using this

strange, I can't install it from the Market, had to install from the APK.
Just want to say thanks. I've been using this link after every new rom flash. Probably downloaded them at least 50 times.
Thanks!
Is this the same one by Google, the one that came with the Nexus S 4G????? Reason I ask is because I liked that one, but because of carrier crap, I can't use it on my HTC Holiday...
Thanks! Works great...

Just installed on Liquid's ICS leak, works great.
I have a Nexus S, but I'm thinking that doesn't matter too much here. I am brand new to the root scene, so pardon my ignorance.
I have used ASTRO and ES file managers but cannot move the launcher.apk to /system/app/, I get an error. Unknown exception.
I tried going into CWM recovery and "fix permissions" but that didn't help... i was thinking it was a permissions thing with the directory i'm trying to move it to. Can anyone help?

Perfect Viewer can do this. Perfectly, I might add.
Open the picture you want with it, tap the middle of the screen, go to the second to last option, and set wallpaper as current screen.

thanx for the reply..
from your suggestion, i did look at this.. i kept getting error .. "has stopped" or wont start or something like that..
description says to crop first..
really i do like the other app better because it uses the pic as is..really fast and accurate w/many options..
thanx tho
Try Wallpaper Wizardrii. I also use the Wallbase app and have moved some of my favorite wallpapers into the Wallbase Saved folder to apply them from within the app.
