With some Sense ROMs I've flashed (Viper, being one example), my apps are automatically restored from the play store. Which is nice.
However, with the various AOSP/ AOKP/ CM ROMs I've tried (currently on Bruce's CM10, which is the balls btw), this doesn't happen?
Can anyone tell me why?
Cheers!
It will automatically restore if the market versions of your rom that you're about to install is the same as your old ones. This is based on my experience that is why I always look for vending.apk of my previous rom and put it on my new rom. It always work for me that way. Don't worry if your playstore version is older it will automatically updated to the latest after your rom is installed if your connected to internet. Another solution is to backup your playstore data before installing a new rom using titanium backup or my backup root. Much easier i think...

Thanks for that.
I use Ti Backup already, and you're right - it's very straight forward. I was just wondering why I updated from the store on some ROMs and not on others. Nice one!

Hi Guys I had a quick question. I have been using Insert Coin Rom for the last few weeks and love it. However I have never been able to get the market to download some of my banking apps. I know thats because the build.prop and other things like that define the phone as the European model. So I tried to change the various lines in it and couldn't get it to work. So I downloaded the Android Revolution ROM which I also have used and love. I noticed it had a folder called additions and in it was a Tmous folder that had a different build.prop and different GPS file and a few other things.
So basically what I did was just copy these files from the Revolution rom and pasted them into the zip of the InsertCoin Rom and then reflashed and it worked. My market now knows what my phone is. I also pasted in some files from the lib folder.
So onto my question. Is there anything negative that willl come from this that I don't realize? Does this mess up my insertcoin rom by pasting in the entire build.prop and a few other files from the Android Revolution HD rom?

Tried that as well as Market Access app. Neither of these would work. I just copy and pasted the config file from the Revolution rom to the insertcoin rom then flashed. I am curious as to why some developers make a folder called additions or tmous and have the phone checked and if it is tmous it installs the stuff from the seperate folder. Makes things so much easier. I know CtDroid and Android Revolution HD roms do this. Insertcoin rom does not do this as far as I know.
Hi guys sorry for any noob questions I'm going to post. Firstly I was successful in rooting and installing cyanogenmod 7 on my HTC sensation XE by following Viper's guide. I'm really thrilled by the speed and interface of the mod but would like to get the preloaded locations app back on it because I received a lifetime voucher in the box. From what I scoured from the internet it seems that the app only works using HTC sense. Is there a way to install it onto cyanodenmod? Or it means I'll have to reinstall back my stock rom using Viper's guide? If I have to reinstall my stock rom, can I just select restore using cwm, or do I have to download a "RUU_pyramid_*****.exe" and follow the guide to reinstalling it? Thanks in advance!
Locations only works with Sense 3.0 / 3.5
Its either you revert back to Sense 3.0/3.5 roms or forget about Locations.
As you probably all heard the rumors about Sense 4.5 and the camera that worked its way through XDA was not completely functional.
HTC announced the One X International android 4.0.4 Sense 4.1 update rolled out. So I googled the Camera and found a flashable zip in the One X forums.
Credits for mod/zip:
ALL CREDIT GOES TO HIM, IM NOT THE ORIGINAL POSTER, JUST RE-POSTING WHAT IVE FOUND.
Disclaimer:
I'm not responsible for what you choose to do with your already rooted device, etc.
The zip won't flash. It will abort installation so just follow the steps below to install:
Screenshots:
Installation Instructions:
1. Download zip HERE (DropBox link)
2. Extract zip contents to SD Card.
3. Backup your original files individually or do a nandroid backup of your system partition.
4. Use Root Explorer (or other type app) to copy all files in zip to proper locations (as shown below
Zip contents:
--- system/app Camera.apk
--- system/etc media_profiles.xml
--- system/lib libhtccamera.so
--- system/lib libOlaEngineNew.so
5. Set all permissions to look like rw-r--r-- (ie. Like every other system file)
6. Change Owner (root explorer option press n hold and scroll to bottom) to root (0) and root (0).
7. Click on camera app once in system app directory and perms and owner are set and actually install the app.
After Install (thing to know, bugs, etc):
- All settings from previous Camera app will be there
- Video recording will work from HD and down. Camera app will close if you try the Full HD setting for video recording.
- Slow Motion video will cause the camera app to close also. Most likely kernel related.
- FFC works fine for me on picture and video...as well as a 0.3 VGA can work. Functionality seems fine.
- Touch Focus reported not working on ViperS ROM.
- Touch to take photo works great for me (on IC Evolution 2.20) and focus is clear for me as well.
Enjoy. I like it, so other may as well.

Well it was posted in the sensation forums so yes. And the OP seems to have tried it so yes.

do we have to delete the original camera.apk
does it work on aosp roms?
1. Yes it is compatible with the Sensation on a Sense 4 ROM only. I'm running InsertCoin Evolution 2.20 Final. Works fine.
2. The Camera.apk will overwrite the original. Follow the steps posted to either backup the files individually or use nandroids advanced backup feature to backup the system partition.
3. Idk about AOSP. Its a Sense camera so I guess if the AOSP ROM is based off a Sense 4 base then go ahead and try it and report back.
Like I said, working great for me on Sense 4.0.

Why not do a backup and try it yourself. I'm not on that ROM or switching ROMs but it will install and function on a Sense 4.0 ROM so what have you got to lose?

this camera mod is NOT designed for CM10, it has broken your system probably because a sense camera mod will only work on a sense rom or a sense based rom. You will probably have to reinstall your rom, its advisable to make a nandroid backup of your rom just in case things go wrong so you can revert back

Really nice work bro.
Still have to modify camera script for full functionality.
Overall great work. And also thanx to devs related to original post.
Any idea what it would take to get this working with JB?

Just as a heads up, this won't work on AOSP. I have the hybrid rom (PACman) on my MT4GS, and it could not install. At first, I thought I did the install wrong, but turns out it's because it's not based on a sense rom. Long story short, this won't work on most other roms except those based around the HTC Sense.
Such a shame, if one thing HTC got right, it was the camera app.
Would be nice if anyone could port the camera app and make it flashable, but gotta make do with what there is.

Sense apps require sense framework so a port would be pretty much impossible... No sense only apps will work on AOSP.

Hey there,
is there a way to remove the beats audio drivers from the stock JB rom (3.16)?
I want to use a clean AC!D audio mod without the preinstalled beats audio drivers from HTC so I can experience the pure AC!D audio engine..
I don't think that deleting the beats.apk will help because there should be a few libs related to beats but I dont know which.
my fear is that the music will sound bad/overpowered by using two mods at the same time
Matey, have a look here.

So I guess you're on an AOSP or AOKP rom. Then it's either modified or simply not there.
For sense based roms it looks like this:
Freeze it in titanium back up?
What's so good about acid? I have it with no add ons seems the same to me

as mentioned in the op, I'm not sure if freezing the app is enough, because its related to libs etc.
ac!d is a sound improvement mod, I want to try it out, but without ruining my rom

The easiest, but most tedious way, would be to download the flashable Beats zip, search for it, then unzip it and compare it to your stock files, and delete the ones you see in you Beats zip that are in your stock files.
Best way is to unzip the Beats zip on a computer, and use a root explorer on your phone, to delete all of the files that match the Beats zip.

thanks for your answer.
But could it be possible that there files on the stock rom which are different named then the files from the zip?
so there are still there plus the files from the zip so I have two beats libs in my phone and my phone explooodes because of overpowered ultrabass (I like bass , but .. it should sound good)

When you decided you didn't like Beats, or it didn't work, did you revert to your previous Nandroid backup before playing around with other audio management apps?
No that could be the cause might try a full wipe and reflash rom
