I'm a noob to flashing and roms, but i am rooted and running the evil fascination rom. first theme i put on was nitro's honeycomb. i have flashed probably 8 or themes since then, and i always wipe cache and delvik before each one. My issue is the past 3 themes i have flashed on there, some of the icons are no longer changing, such as youtube, camera, and gallery for some. they are stuck as icons from cyanbread. how can i get this fixed? And also since the first honeycomb theme, my power off screen shows current theme animation, then shows the honeycomb animation. how can i get the honeycomb screen off? Thanks for your help and advice.
Sometimes when flashing themes over other themes some of the old theme stays so the best to do is when flashing a new theme I found is best to reflash the rom then the new theme. This will make sure the old theme is no longer there.

No you shouldnt have to since you are not doing a data wipe.
Do you backup your apps with TB anyhow?
yes i do. so should i just go into recovery, wipe the cache, then reflash EF 3.5.1 from my sd card? then go back into recovery and flash the theme i want?

yes
reboot recovery
wipe cache
in advanced wipe dalvik
flash ROM
reboot
then repeat with compatible theme of your choice
You should make a nandroid backup... just in case. That way if you ever mess up or something goes wrong, you can always go back to a good setup you had before.
got it done. Thanks guys, it helped a ton.
Actually, just tried rebooting. my icons are fixed but my shut down screen now goes from my themes, to the evil fascinations lol. so i still have 2 boot downs

ok. Like i said i am a noob to this, i just read that EF was a great rom, so i chose that not knowing much about it. how do i change to com rom? and where do i get that gb theme thats better? And what is really the difference between the 2 roms? do they differ in speed or battery life? sorry so many questions, just trying to understand it all

To learn the differences just read the two threads....The Comm ROM is for me a better performing ROM with more options as he said and a full Gingerbread theme built in....no need to flash an external theme unless you want a completely different look...
Speed and battery are similar depending on your usage etc....its more subjective as far as that goes because every user experiences differences in performance...
To change Roms you can simply flash in recovery after making a backup, wiping is optional but you may experience issues if you do not do a full wipe...at the least you want to wipe cache and dalvik cache in advanced option per CWMR and you can use Titanium Backup to backup your apps/data prior to wiping

well it has nothing to do with the theme and LPro is def a good launcher to run....in COMM ROM there are setting in TSM settings that allow you to turn off auto rotate for the Launcher2 thats included as well as in settings/display on the phone itself....
Kendall you might be new but you will learn fast and you are getting answers from 2 very smart people nitsuj & tapout. You will just have to flash different Roms to see which you like better. Both Comrom and EF are great Roms but basically to each their own and also you might find your battery is better with one or the other. Just keep asking questions and you will before you know it have a better handle on all this. I read these pages everyday and i ask questions. Now i want to learn to theme, even just to make my phone the way i want. Have fun and be glad you are getting answers from these amazing people.
I'm posting in this forum and not the official thread because I don't yet have the requisite number of posts to post in development forums.
I installed GalaxianSoup beta 1.7.3 last night and it's a great ROM. Must quicker and better than the stock experience. This ROM is almost capable of being my daily driver except for one particularly crippling problem. It occurs when I long press on any item on my homescreen. Rather than allowing me to move, remove, or resize the item, it instead causes the screen to quickly go blank, change orientation, and then return to the original orientation. So, basically, it prevents me from making changes to my homescreens. When I long press on a blank area, it behaves properly. This problem only occurs when I long press on an icon or widget.
Any ideas?
Update:
I can eliminate this problem by locking the screen orientation. If all else fails, I suppose it's not TOO big of a hassle to lock the orientation before making changes to my homescreen, but I'd rather find a fix instead of a workaround.
Thats very strange, i have never seen or heard about this problem. I can resize/move/create folders without any problems.
You are using the stock launcher, correct? Did you wipe data, cache and dalvik when you installed the rom? Did you restore anything?
Have you tried to clear Launcher cache and data?
Clearing Trebuchet's data and cache fixed it for me. Thanks a million.

Are you sure you are using Galaxian Soup rom? Our AOSP rom uses stock ICS launcher. Trebuchet is CM launcher.

I have always been able to move/resize widgets and create folders on homescreen. This should work on all versions of Galaxian Soup AOSP roms. What exactly doesn't work for you?
I can move them around, that's pretty much it.
Was seriously missing the resize feature from CM9 SGS2, but this rom was so smooth with everything else. Maybe I should try flashing 1.7.3 and see what happens.
Is wiping data a necessity when changing rom on the tab? Got that impression from one of the last posts in the developer thread.

Resize widgets was intoduced in android 3.1 if i remember correctly. It has always worked for me. Of course the widget has to support it too.
You can create folders if you move one icon on top of the other. Thats a Android 4.0 feature.
I updated from aosp 1.6.4 to 1.7.3 without data wipe. Just wipe cache and dalvik. Dont forget to install the same version of gapps that you had on 1.6.4.
If you are coming from any other rom then im afraid you have to wipe data also.
I'll try a update and see what happens..

Ok, that makes more sense. I thought you are using our AOSP build because you have AOSP rom version number in topic of this thread.
I second this on the aokp, though using apex launcher. The problem usually goes away after a reboot.
I decided to create a new thread solely for Q/A and for people who are exeriencing issues running LANIGHT. Many issues can be solved by flashing different kernel/patch/fix/modem or going back to stock.
Try flashing DarkyRom RE: http://www.darkyrom.com/index.php?th...aptivate.6062/ (Captivate guide)
Then flash JB on it with proper instructions.
When an application crashes I get the option to close it or report the crash. When I click to report the crash it then says that the Play Store crashed. Is there a fix for this?
Still have ringtone issue
I installed 6.5 dd and all went well, but I still have the disappearing ringtone issue. Tried the fix and didn't work. I came from 4.2 dd. Any comments on how to try to fix this? This ROM is great.

Did you try flashing semaphore or flashing the rom with a complete wipe? People reported flashing the different kernel sometimes fixes it... Not sure if it's kernel related which is highly unlikely.
I ran the rom with no issues. I remember it was an issues back in 4.2DD but it was gone when i applied the fix... Not everyone that flashed reported that issue maybe that's why i never got serious about it.
Lockscreen wallpaper image?
is there a way to set a different wallpaper image to the lockscreen?
I can't seem to find this option in the Lanigh 6.5 rom.

Same here, but I have to confess that I made a dirty flash wiping dalvik cache only. I'll try to make a full wipe to see what happens.

I followed instructions from the OP, full wipe 3 times...format individual system/data/datadata/cache/dalvik. Haven't tried semaphore, I like devil ever since team nyx's 4.0.3. With this ROM I have never had wifi issues, since v1. Besides the disappearing ringtones, gallery pictures also disappear just leaving online pics...no FC though. I use quikpic so no biggie.

No luck. Actually it it's worse, since before flashing I had access to standard ringtones, those that come with the ROM, but not those which I created by myself. After flashing, all ringtones disappeared. Tried with the ringtones patch, but also no luck.
Next step, it's to find semaphore and flash new kernel. Any clue where I can download it?
Another repeating issue that occurs to me is the FC in the messages app.
EDIT: I've foud Semaphore and flashed it with Odin. I couldn't check if it solved the ringtone issue, since after apply this kernel, I had two severe issues: my screen rotated 90° to the right and the external-sd was not recognized. I've cleared cache, dalvik, fixed permissions and no luck.
Going back to 4.2 by now.

Loving the ROM so far. Finally decided that I don't need most of the customization options offered by other JB roms. however, I do miss the battery percentage. Any way to enable that, maybe through a theme or app?
EDIT: sneaky ba$terds, hiding it in the display options.... Looks awesome now. Found a new fav daily driver!
I installed new devil kernes 1.7.4VC and did not loose sound as others are posting. I wiped cache / dalvik & reboot recovery.
P.S. version 1.7.5 fixes the sound accourding the kernel thread.

I think this must be a common issue, I fixed this by plugging into my pc and safely removing the sd card. but next day same thing .?. I tried to apply a different lockscreen image and it wouldnt load images in gallery .?.
-btw, Love this Rom :highfive: ! It Is Fast. :Thanx Yo: :good:
In a week ive took a Captivate i897 from stock froyo 2.2 to cwmR to Devil kernel 1.6.1 <- which I really like. I first installed CM10 and was satisfied but got to reading around and flashed LAnight 6.5 DD last night (the proper way explained on thread). only played with it for a few hours and loved its speed. But today ran into problem with changing lock screen background image to custom image.
** is there a permanent fix for this, i dont always have my pc with me.
--Also noticed in both CM10 and LAnight 6.5DD, I can only turn on Bluetooth, is there a way to configure it like settings menu in stock froyo .?.
*edit, figured it out, long press WiFi or Bluetooth opens sub menu for settings, DuH. Im a Android Newb.

You don't need to download Devil kernel manager if you don't want to. It's somewhere in the settings (different Lanight versions have it hidden in different places...).
Probably, under settings -> developer options
Or settings -> extras
Or settings -> tvout
Or there's a galaxy s app...
Maybe there are more places I hid it in different versions lol I had to move things and its as unorganized as my rom thread :/

Very weird problem when on lanlight (or any JB rom)
I installed V6.5DD using the exact method you wrote on the OP. I was coming from CM9, it booted up correctly and everything works great except three things: 1) i have no lock screen (it is checked) 2) I don't get any notifications, whatsoever(i can pull it down, but i hear an email or sms come in and nothing appears) 3) when i hold the home button the recent apps don't show.
I formatted everything again and re flashed, same exact problem.
What should i do? everything worked well on cm9
please help if you can.
I installed different JB roms and none worked.
I decided to go back to CM9, and guess what? none of those thing i outlined works.
It looks i have to odin back to stock. Can anyone please help me
sincerely,
Thatguy

I'm using v1.3.04 on a stock but rooted Bionic (and also my Nexus 7 tablet) and it works fine with one minor exception. When you manually refresh the news it may display a blank screen. Just touch anywhere on the screen or swipe to one side and it'll then display the results. This version also lets you add any custom rss feed you want.
Alternatively, if you use the PA gapps, it's included in there.
