Froyo Car Home

Hi
I was wondering if anyone had the apk of the new Froyo Car Home, and will it work on the Hero. I was using CM6 for a few days and found it much better than the Eclair one. I've tried looking for the .apk in the ROM but can't seem to find it.
Cheers
It should be there. I can't download the ROM at work so can't check it myself. I am thinking though that maybe it comes in the Gapps addon pack? Maybe take a look in there.
With regards to it working on 2.1, dunno.

It's in the gapps update
Doh never thought to look in there. Cheers.
Comes in 2 parts, CarHomeGoogle and CarHomeLauncher, neither of them want to install :-(
How did you try and install them? If just by using say 'Astro' you would prob need to push them via adb.
Tried pushing it via Androidcommander to system/app but no dice. As I'm running a deodexed ROM would that be a problem?
Hmmm, I think the files just need to be ported to work on 2.1 Not sure how to do that myself, or even if that will even work. Hopefully someone else will know

[Q] Galaxy S video editing force closes

Hi guys,
I just installed the video editor from Samsung Apps, Im running the sweet honey rom (JVB 2.3.3)
For some reason the app keeps force closing on me and I get the following error.
Anyone know what might be the issue? Have wiped Dalvik and Cache but made no difference.
Thanks
Not sure if this is a general issue or a rom specific issue so posted here.
I can answer both:
The program has all sorts of bugs and is only working properly on the galaxy tab.
I've tried it on froyo stock doc deodexed, Jvk, doc jvk deodrxed, and finally simply honey rc3 same rom as you. Never worked for me
Is there any decent alternative on the android market?
There was a time when i could only find vidéo editor for...vidéo editing.It seem other software has come out now.
Worked fine for me on froyo but never since 2.3
(FC) and i'ts sure we're not the only ones.Not so amazing that certain apps ain't yet working well on ginger.
Hi can you please tell me what other software has come out for it?
Thanks
Never tried other ones yet but i've seen much more apps than before the last time i've checked the market a few weeks ago.Sorry.
Edit:Vidtrim for example.
Ps: personally,i love clayframes for doing stop-motion video.

Working market , camera and netfliks - what rom ?

OK,
so i think i install every possible Rom on my gtablet , but cant find one with , all those elements working together .
im just end user with some knowledge of stuff , but not enough to claim to be developer .
please help me to find Rom with those elements working together :
flash
Netflix
market
camera
thanks , hope somebody can help
hmm i think the hard part is netflix, i myself dunno what netflix is. But as for working market, overcome and cm7 has working market. But how hard it is to find a working market ?
As for working camera, I think all are working, usually the big problem is the video recording which cm7 and all roms derived from it has this bug, but any custom roms based from stock should not have this problem. Try overcome if ur a nubi, its perfect to learn how to flash.
If you re not looking for anything spesific, stock rom mey suitable with you. If you want oc/uv feature, use koxudaxi's.

[Q] Mail.apk on Gingerbread broken, auto caps and auto complete don't work

Is there a fix, or different apk, for the email stock app (not gmail) that will fix the auto capitalization and auto complete? All other apps seem to work fine, but mail.
I am currently on Pinnacle 1.3 for Captivate, but had the same issue on Cognition 5, v1 and v2.
I saw there was a possible fix in the CM7 thread, but I tried to install it with CWM and it failed.
Thank you in advance for help.
Sorry if this post is in the wrong area, but I think I am okay. I have posted this question in the Cog and Pinnacle threads, but got no response.
Is it possible that no one else has this issue? Is it just me? Interesting that I have posted this several times, in different forums, and do not get a response?
Please reply if you do or do not have this issue. Thank you.
I have the same issue with the leaked 2.3.3 GB ROM. I haven't looked for a fix.
It is nice to know I'm not completely alone, but it is still interesting how few responses are here. Not sure what to make of that...
Anyone? Please... I have to get this fixed or I will have to bo back to early releases that didn't have the issue, which I really do not want to do...;-(
I really don't know. Only thing I would try is pulling the email apk from a froyo and using it on your ROM. I don't know if it will work or not.

Camera problem, help needed plz

Since I did a factory reset?! on this phone ages ago, only the front camera works.
I've 3 file flashed back to GB etc, can't get it to work. Does someone have a link to the camera firmware for me to flash please, or any ideas as to what the problem may be?
Thanks

You can find firmware here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
These are also possible problems:
1) Your default camera.apk has an issue -- Try another camera app, such as fxcamera, camera 360, etc
2) Do you have other apps that use the camera? Like mirror or flashlight apps or something? It might be interferring. Actually it could be other apps interfearing too. I'd make a back-up and start uninstalling suspicious apps.
3) It could also be also a hw problem. Hopefully not.
Good luck!

Thanks for the reply
It can't be the camera .apk or rogue app because its like that with different ROMs. I've got 3 fresh nandroid backups on my SD... Newest helly bean, newest x-bean, and my usual slim 2.7, and its the same with them all.. and I 3 file flashed GB and that made no difference either..
So I think like u say it could be a hardware problem, hope not... But I've got a feeling its the camera firmware. I've never regged with sammobile, cos its got one of those captcha things that I can't do by phone, so I never knew they had the camera firmware..
Going to register and try that, and I'll report back..

Registered for sammobile, but I can't find any camera firmware. I'm sure I've read somewhere that there is such a thing..
So unfortunately I'm still stuck until I find out if camera firmware does exist.. I'm sure I was told that a while ago there was an update camera firmware setting in the camera options in an old version of GB.
Or is there files or a folder in root that I could try overwriting with someone else who has a working cameras version????
Thx..

Hmm I also just looked for it and I couldn't find it either.
Google search didn't even give me 1 proper hit. So I'm suspicious if there is a specific firmware update for camera.
Interestingly I could find it for S3.
Kies should detect any needed firmware upgrades. Have you tried?
http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/mobile/mobile-phones/smartphones/GT-I9000HKABMC-support
Good idea, something I've never ever used is kies. Definitely worth a shot, but I've got a feeling I'm gonna have to flash GB again before it will want to play :-/
Gotta be tried though so I'll need to do it. Failing that I think I'll buy a new camera module, just in case it is hardware...
