[Q] Google Goggles on Froyobread - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there!
Does Google Goggles work on Froyobread? I used to use it on Floyo 0.30 and it worked just fine, but I've installed it again (with Froyobread now) and it's frozen on the analyzing screen... Froyobread doesn't support it?
Thanks in advance!

I am using froyobread v22 and google map 5.8 works ok. only thing is to turn on wifi or 3g data after every reboot.
I suppose it is a small bug.

It happens to me when there is no internet connection. Check your Wi-Fi or data.

Both wi-fi and data traffic are on, but it still doesn't change a single thing: it's freezing at the analyzing screen... my froyobread version is 20

1st ensure you can surf internet.
If can surf, then try installing latest FB v23b and try again.
Remove the cache of map and street view may help.

V023b here. Same here. Goggles freeze at analyzing screen. It has worked in the past on previous FB v.

If you download google goggles from the market it should work perfect.My x8 Google maps works with wifi/data offline

Why are you talking about maps? I used goggles from the market on FB and it crashed. Anyway I now use GingerDX. It works on this rom.

On GingerCruz rev7 i dont have problems with apps.

Troll detected.

I didn't have time yet to make a backup and upgrade the rom, but it seems like the problem is happening with 023 too... is there a way to let doixanh know this? Should we send him a PM?
I'm thankful for every help you've given, really, thanks!

No pm. He won't answer anyway. Use GINGERDX.

Did you try fullwipe before upgrading to v023b?
I only support Xperia Active Launcher from v022 to v023. All other codes are unchanged, so there should be no problem using other apps.

Yes I do full wipe anytime I flash an update or a new rom. Not sure with wich version of FroyoBread Goggles has stoped working as I don't use it so much. Anyway I use GDX now. Wonderfull rom and Goggles works fine on it. Thank you for taking the time to answer.

working partially in FB 023b
Hi,
I'm using Froyobread 023b and google goggles does work but partially.
For instance, if I take pictures of text or QR codes it does work.
But, if I take a picture of an image (artwork or logos) it will freeze in analyzing.
IMO, the picture quality is playing us, since our phone does not support autofocus.
Could anyone confirm artwork detection in previous versions of FB?
thank you!!

Just formatted my SD Card, did a full wipe and installed FroyoBread v023b, and then Full Wiped again, and Google Goggles isn't working yet, I can't even use the text detection like mimorqleko does.
Since I won't update to GingerDX yet, is there any fix for this?
Thanks!

I was using data2ext4 from TGF and I never lost something from it even if I've flashed alot of nightlies. The point is that, flashing a new ROM does not wipe data2ext partition (only if you format it yourself). So if you don't wipe before everything should be preserved including data2ext. Eventualy you should re-enable data2ext by using ADB command : "data2ext --enable".
What I usually do is just flash the new ROM, flash after that TGF's script and when I boot I have data2ext4 active and all content is there. If you use a different data2ext then I don't know. You should ask the developer of that

Hi Im using the older version - not RC4 - sorry.
It's manually clocked down to 600MhZ with setcpu.
I'm sure it needs some tweaks - I'll give it another try. It's cool that it's possible to easily switch between the OSses -thanks to Clockwork Mod! ;-)

Compass on Google Maps on Onecosmic's ICS RC3

Hi
Is anyone's compass working on Google Maps while using Onecosmic's ICS RC3 Rom? My Compass is working in a Compass App and in MapDroyd.. but in Google Maps, it doesn't.
Can anyone suggest a fix? I've already replaced the networklocation.apk (which fixed the Compass App from force closing).
Thanks
Use a version of maps before 6.0 and it will work, for some reason google has done something to maps that has broken compass on AOSP based roms.
Thanks diabslosv, I'll try and get an older APK for it and try it out

I have the same, is really annoying me.. Another apps that requires location do not work.

This is Google Maps 5.12, the last one that had a working compass.. It should work
The login failed error happens because of permissions.. but I got a triangle in the notification bar on my phone, and clicked allow for about 3 different things.
looks like it working now..
perfect...thx a lot!

Here's my current theory, I'm thinking maybe 6.0 and up is looking for the barometer (helps find your location apparently) which isn't in our phone, which is a new feature of the Galaxy Nexus.... which is somehow stuffing the compass for us..... perhaps maps 6.0 thinks our phone is a galaxy nexus .
Might be totally wrong though

which compass app you're using? I cant get it working on any app in the market.
New version of Google maps 5.12 with working compass

Maps compass solution
I just had this problem (on a different rom). After using Maps-5.12 as a workaround for months, I finally discovered that the compass will work on the newer versions of Maps if auto-rotation is enabled.
Cheers!

[Q] What is the perfect rom?

I tried a lot of rom's for this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425240
but I can't found the best. When I install the rom it is very fast but after I install some apps from google play
itt will be slow.
I don't install games only these apps: Facebook, Facebook messenger, viber, Xda, Opera mini, Shazam and sometimes alarm clock extreme because in some rom's I can't choose for my musics to alarm. These are the all apps for me.
So if anyone can say a perfect rom for me please write a post.

if you want your current ROM to be fast as the Fresh install!
Don't Download big apps from Playstore like FB app FB messenger and Viber because downloading data always reduce our system performance
only try to Download important and small apps like Opera mini and your purchased app!
if freeware you can search it in Google and download and install via SD card!
reduce the download from the Playstore. as much as you can.
or try this ROM Perfect in Performance (in My own Thread)
