How to change the model version p690 to p500 on Gingersnap? - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a couple of apps on my phone which requires the phone model version to be P500 but it seems neko's latest Gingersnap is changed to p690 to solve some compatibility issues. I want to know how I can turn it back to P500. Also neko has mentioned that changing it will result in some apps to not function properly. Can someone (who has done it) tell me what kind of instability issues will I face? I am Ok with removing some of the apps. Can you tell me which are those apps to keep the Rom stable? Thank You.

If you gonna change phone model in build.prop some apps like sns wifi cast and anothers that I dont remember now will fc cuz compability issue.
You can change phone model in build.prop but like i said some apps will fc

Rom in development problem

I need some assistance, with a rom I just thought I reached the finished product.

(Anything else just ask)
After installing the firmware, I'll go to click settings and get a force close. Some of the apps are like this, perferably ones I added or rethemed. Even some of the apps off the market do this.
I was told its a uid problem or a sdk value problem.
Any ideas to fix this?

NEW!!! Chrome Beta (4/17/2012) not working after update

Yet again, Google Chrome Beta is broken after the latest update. I have ICSSGS RC4.2 and just updated Chrome Beta to the latest release. And as before, this update fails the Chrome Beta to launch on my Cappy... so beware...
I am using my old copy as before until someone figures out how to fix it... ... again...
Running 4.0.4 AOKP build 32 and it works with no problems.

Have you tried editing your build.prop, which was the easiest fix for the previous chrome issues?

I can and I will but what should the build.prop entry be to allow Chrome to load properly?
The thing is, I can find the new update with no issues. It installs fine, it just refuses to open. It hangs and then dumps me to the main window.
So, can someone give me suggestions as to what the right build.prop entry should be and I will try it.
Thanks
Look at your build.prop and the line that says ro.build.id= should match the line that reads ro.build.display.id=. If either one says gingerbread edit it to match the other and reboot your device.

Chrome is working for me on my Captivate, running Slim ICS (even though Chrome is fairly buggy and annoying in one or two places).

Ok. So my build.prop shows as such.
ro.build.id=IML74K
ro.build.display.id=SGH-I897-user 4.0.3 IML74K eng.onecosmic.20120204.223407 test-keys
So what has to match? Do I edit the display ID=IML74K??? and delete the rest?
Make a backup before doing so, but yes chrome beta does a check to see if that line is correct. If it's says something other then what a stock ROM would say, it won't run. So change it as you already described and it should work fine. But again make sure to make a backup of your build prop before doing so, just in case.

Ok... It seems that some people are using what I posted as a direction to change the build.prop to make the Chrome work... Actually, what I put on my earlier post is my exact build.prop what is NOT allowing the Chrome to work... so some one needs to provide an exact line entry. Please do not use my post as this is how my stock (ICSSGS ICS RC4.2) build.prop looks like...
Sorry for the confusion.
I downloaded chrome beta, but I cannot even install it. Something about a para phase error. Idk

I'm not sure if your situation is the same, but upgrading an existing chrome install didn't work for me. It crashed whenever I tried to open it. I uninstalled the one I had then installed the latest one from the play store. Its been working fine since. Running Slim 3.4 btw.

You guys should tell me why I should bother getting Chrome? Isn't stock browser Chrome based with HW accel by Samsung?
I've just tested this problem myself, and if you have LCD density set to 120 that's the cause of the issue. Set it back to 160 in build.prop or using dalingrin's CWM zip, and it works....
Fixed in latest update to Chrome... now works at lcd density of 120.

But when it comes to facebook after installation it says that : "Application not installed" , i tried many time from but
no success i tried for apks downloaded from different different sources...Can someone help me to get rid off from this problem.
man i suggest you to do a double wipe in recovery for both cache in the main menu and dalvik cache in the advance menu
if still got the same problem ,do you have rom toolbox ?
have you ever edited the LCD DENSITY ?
the default should be 240
i tried to change it before and led to lot of apps disappeared from market due the lcd density changed as i guess market will detect your lcd density to judge which app available for you
or
u have just flashed a wrong version thats not for your phone

JAN 09 2013 marked a landmark for MIUI and Xiaomi as there are now a record 10,000,000 users actively supporting and using MIUI ROM.
As part of the celebration Xiaomi have reached out to all the dedicated developers and international sites who support MIUI and Xiaomi to help them in a very simple and charitable way.
Simply visit http://love.miuiandroid.com/ and follow the link to download the MIUI Love theme.
What's the Charity part?
For each download of the MIUI Love theme, Xiaomi will donate 0.1 RMB to the Smile Angel Foundation. The foundation was setup to help children born with a cleft lip and pallat (CLP) from low-income families.
Please show your support by doing a very simple thing which will help touch the lives of hopefully thousands of children who desperately need these donations. No money is needed for this but MIUIAndroid.com will be donating some money towards this Charity as a gesture of kindness to our friends in China.
Thanks,

Damn that Flashable ZIP:silly: extract it copy framework-res to The MIUI ZIP File into /system/framework and flash it or
in CWM plug usb goto adb
Copy apk to same dir as adb if you have not added it to enviroment Variables
Code:
then adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
then adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
It's a lot faster than stock cm10 and no bugs so far. Very nice!
But there is one big thing missing it's maybe a poo in all miui Roms:
Just where can I chose different sound volumes for calls and sms? It's such a basic function but impossible to find :-\
And the Smileys in the stock SMS App are not working they are not shown.

So not sure if i should be posting about bugs for the rom here, if you want to point me to where i should that'd be great.
However my situation is this, I have the canadian version of the O3D the P925g. I have been following the P920 stuff and I know internally I see a lot of p920 labeling inside my phone and I haven't had any issues with stock roms, however with this rom compared to cm10, at one point I had a working signal and wifi was iffy but it worked well now I'm not getting any signal, 21D baseband not my biggest concern atm. What i've noticed, on cm10 as well this rom they don't seem to be able to read and sync the data on my sim card with the phone, stuff like voicemail #s and network time, network time seems to want to i just have to change the time zone. Any ideas of how to fix this sort of thing? I didn't notice the network sync issue when i used MIUI from CM7. I love the look and feel of MIUI though.

Try this for notification volume if you really need it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.qbit.audiomixer&hl=en
And i don't get what you mean they don't work
Really amazing work , thank you.
Using it with iodak's cm10 kernel 1.0 and it's really smooth.
Bug report ;
Touchscreen sometimes doesn't register some touches.
Occasional hanging (Freezes for 3-5 seconds then returns to normal.) (I noticed this mostly with keyboard and rarely other apps as well.)
Keyboard backlight is off by default.(Which didn't bother me , I turn it off anyway)
Memory is crowded and without compression , it usually bottlenecks. (We need a little optimization on that part)
Thank you for all the hard work.

First I want to thank you very much for your personal support here
Unfortunately it's not that easy. An app can't set the ringtone and notification volume different unless you set that possibility in the android settings. In every ROM and cm10 there is that option in the android settings but not in miui. Well it's not the most important thing in the world so I unterstand if you leave it be.
The emojis are invisible but I can send them. Of course I can't see which one I send but I can see them on the receiver's device. I add an screenshot were you can see the invisible emojis. Don't you all encounter the same problem??

[Q] Axis rom Aosp mms not working

I have a metro pcs Galaxy s3. and i installed the Axis rom and had to flash a fix from another rom to get data to work ,also flashed the USC lean kernel to have the rom run smoothly. When flashing the rom in the AROMA process you have to option to flash AOSP mms. But it always seems to crash and i have to do a clean flash without. Everyone over at the metro forum is having this same issue. If any of Android Gurus over here can resolve this issue then it would be greatly appreciated by the Metro Gs3 family
