2.0 Theme or rom issues or requests post here.

An issue I've found. Say I hold the search button for voice search, and then I say "text amanda". That brings up a text message box. As soon as I touch the microphone for speech to text it force closes every time.

I could send alogcat if you want.

If you can find a rom that it doesnt do it on let me know and i will try out their voice search. Try deleting from the phone and downloading from the market same thing. Unless they fixed it recently ill check into it. But yeah thats been like that in every rom ive tried for quite a while ill play around and see if the one from the market is fixed as of yet but hadnt been i9n 3 months of checking it

Good catch.

Ah, ok. I'm not well versed in what does and doesn't work across various roms.

That said, I'm still having trouble uploading pics to facebook. About one in ten attempts will successfully upload.

that has been mentioned throught the various thread. and here and all the answers always blame it on face book.

Ill do some research but I dont sync facebook and not gonna attempt it with all the 25 year old highschool people i didnt even like back than

If you find anything let me know.
1 thing you can try is uninstall it and try installing it into system/app yoiu can do this by making a folder on the sdcard called system than go into magic commands after placing the facebook apk in that folder and choose install to system and see if that makes a difference.

thats about all i got for ya on that one

Yea, I've installed it from sourcery settings, and same thing. Trying to get the official app off the market (I'm guessing the one installed from sourcery isn't the official app), but I keep getting insallation fail. I'm gonna uninstall, reboot and try again, and let you know.

the one installed through settings is the oficail ap latest taht i know about. but it installes into data/app not system/app thats why i said try the other way maybe it like s to be in system app better. but i jsut dont know and unfrotuanly its not something i can test on my side.

Thanks, I'll try to find the mistery app on the market for now. I know UD had that setting and saw he was mentioned a few times in the cred list. Hope that saves you some time.

.....into data/app not system/app.....

What is the value of installing into /data/app over /system/app?

I don't know if I need to theme the version in /system/app or /data/app or both and when it comes to uninstalling an app in /data/app, all I know to do is delete the apk since the uninstall option is not there.

i think you got it backwards

If you are theming you want to theme the apps you want to theme system/app or data/app but data apps must be signed.. You cant have the same app in system/app and data/app they dont play nice together.

The benefit to install into data app is that system/app is seriously size limited.
the benefit for system app is it does not have to be signed but a data/app does.

some apps will only run when installed into system.

tahts about it in a nut shell hope it made some sense

 

[MJ5150]

Yep, sure did. Thank you. I need to go read up on "signing" apk's as this is a new concept to me. I haven't tried to theme an app in /system/app yet.

I have zero issues to report. It's been about 30 hours now on Sourcery 2.0 and I really like it. The ROM is well put together, snappy in performance, and the built in tweaking is great. Any plans to allow editing of the carrier text field?

In your experience, what apps have you seen are better one way vs the other?

This is due to the custom backgrounds used by the ROM (see gflam's post about it HERE)... go into settings > sourcery magic > magic commands > then select "To Remove Backgrounds" and it will look like this:

Thank-you ssooo much for this tip! I found it very useful was having trouble with seeing my alarms I pre- set for wake up times.

Great work guys!!
