Google Apps is provided in a separate zip (due to licensing restrictions by Google). You can download the zip from HERE (all the way at the bottom in the "Google Apps Version" section.... you want to download the HDPI zip for CyanogenMod 7).
Flash the zip in recovery.

Thanxx

What is the diff in CM7?
Hello, sorry for hijacking your thread...but I really want to ask this question...
I've read the cyanogen's website...but are there any difference other than the listed features such as lock screen gestures, phone goggles....etc?
There are ROMs like Infusion, Refused...and how are they fundamentally different?
Finally...I've been sporadically checking the CM7 thread in the development section...seems like people are already having CM7 on their infuse...where did they find the zip for the flash?
Thanks in advance for answering my question =D

CM7 is based on the Android Open Source Project source code base.
The advantage of being based off of AOSP is that once an initial device bringup has been made, it is MUCH easier to track new Android versions. e.g. CM7 is at Android 2.3.5 (the latest Gingerbread). It is also much easier to modify since we have the source code for nearly everything.
Also, once device bringup is complete, CM7 doesn't have the crippled Bluetooth stack that Samsung provides.
Of course, the issue is - when device bringup is complete. We're still in the process of doing device bringup for the Infuse, so things are missing. Interestingly enough, CM7 on the Infuse now has Bluetooth functionality (Input devices, etc.) that basically covers what Samsung's stack doesn't - and the stuff Samsung's stack does (Audio) is what we're missing.

[Q] Steam APk

Hi guys,
I have a SGS2 running ICS and i cant download Steam from the app market (cant post a link as i dont have enough posts, but its Steam as in Valve Corp for PC gaming etc).
Its saying my device isnt compatible?! Can someone post a download for the APK?
Would really appreciate it.
Regards Matt.

Well are you sure that the new Steam app is available for Android 4 ICS? there's a lot of apps not compatible with ICS yet, so maybe that's exactly why you can't install it.
The app is new as well and they're currently in a closed Beta fase, so it's normal that it may not work on ICS.

I didnt think of that. But then a lot of apps i cant download on the market because of this "incompatibility" issue i google the apk and manage to download them and they work fine.
Also this is the latest review left: "nextjonas on January 28, 2012 (Samsung Nexus S with version 1.0)
Received my invite yesterday
And it's really great so far. Everything I ever wanted from Valve! However, the RAM usage can peak at 100MB. This usage even killed other running processes like whatsapp service :O though nice app & looking forward for coming features =)"
Im assuming his device is running ICS 4.0? Also i think the picture of the device running steam mobile in the market is a Nexus S
Regards

Have you tried uninstalling+reboot and reinstalling+reboot and then try to open the app?
I've just installed Steam from the market on my SGS2 with AndyX ICS ROM v3.1 and it opened smoothly and fast, i just can't log in because i don't have an account... so this means that it IS compatible with ICS. Maybe your ROM has some issues with that? is it stable with other apps?

Yeah all my other apps work fine. Il give AndyX ICS ROM v3.1 a try and see how it goes. Before i do tho is it stable?

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &
Read the Forum Rules Ref Posting
Moving to Q&A

Yes, AndyX's v3.1 is stable but of course has some issues like any other ICS. He's now working on the LP6 version (latest leaked official samsung stock rom), the one it's based in now is the LP2 but it works well.
I'm waiting for his LP6 version though, meanwhile i'm testing other roms but so far Andy's is the one i liked the most.

Installed on sandvolds ics for desire ok for me, doubt it is an ics issue.
Just need an invite now...

Just installed AndyX ICS ROM v3.1 and its brilliant!! thanks for recommending it to me, also managed to install all of the apps i previously couldn't!

Sorry you should have read our next posts on the thread, it turned out to be compatible and be a ROM uncompatibility problem so i guess it's all good now to him.
Btw, AndyX v4.0 is out read the latest posts on the thread from Adesirello though because there's a little issue that will be fixed soon.

Ultimate Special Fx for TB?

Is there a working TB ROM that would allow us to download and play this App "Ultimate Special Fx"
It says it requires Android v2.3.7 Gingerbread or higher to run.
I'm running ThunderShed CM7 , when I last checked said it was 2.3.7.
Any thoughts ??

android versions
i've never heard of or used ultimate special fx, but you are correct, thundershed is android version 2.3.7. as i'm unfamiliar with the app in question, and am not sure if there are other hardware/software prerequisites to running the app besides the android version, i can only break down android versions types of roms use as a base. the open mobile leak/mr4 roms are android version 2.3.6. the roms based off of 2.11.605.9 are android 2.3.4 i believe. but yes, in theory, thundershed should be able to run the app.

Thanks for your reply here is the link to the APP. I was also looking for prerequisites but all that is says 2.3.7 and above. I'm wondering if Play Store is set to block all TB roms till the official ICS for TB is released by VZW.
Check out Ultimate Special Fx on Google Play! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.techcatmobile.ultimatespecialfx

Yes, play store restricts apps you can view based on your device id and android version for compatibility reasons, and to protect consumers from purchasing apps they can't run. Also, devices can be blocked from viewing apps in play store because the developer has chosen to restrict them or doesn't support them. Custom roms also sometimes change the device id in the build prop to one that play store doesn't understand or recognize. It's still possible to get around this though. You can either download the app from your computer and move it to your phone, or modify your build prop file with a root browser to reflect a different and compatible device and obtain the app normally. With either course of action, the app chainfire3D can be used to scale the graphical/processing demands of ultimate special fx to fit the thunderbolt's gpu. Keep in mind, I personally haven't tried to do this, it's just a suggestion to try if you're bound and determined to get the app. Hope that helps.

Here is the APK file. I dowloaded it via my PC and threw (USB) it over to my TB and it works good.
Please Note** You still need to be v2.3.7

The 'From_4_3' refers to if you're coming from the partition layout that was used with 4.3.
You see, the 4.4 kk ota changed the blocks that each partition uses. So if you've never flashed to the ota then use the 'From_4_3.' But if you flashed the ota you will need to use the 'From_4_4' version.

Can you play Asphalt 8 and the other games? And 1 question, why don't people use 1.24.502.3 instead of the 1.40?

I will test and find out if it does play it.
Btw, Download link is up:
SolidROM_ver_0_7.zip
I was under the assumption that 1.40.401.1 was the latest Rom base. Would we not want the latest?

Theme shown in screenshots
ROM looks great, but the theming is nothing like the screen shots above. I like the stock Sense look - how do we revert to the standard theme?

very nice rom and the theme is awesome
can you add apm and xloud?

I thought the latest was the 1.24.502.3? Because you are able to see all the newest games on playstore and you could download and play them with full graphics? While the 1.40 doesn't have that.

Yes. The theme that is on the first post I am building into the second update I have coming. I am trying to do an aroma build. But TWRP has a hard time with aroma for some reason for me so gonna keep at it until it works the way that it should.

I edited the androidpolicy.jar so that it will allow apm. Just have to use the sense 5 toolbox [2.4.1]. Check under various mods in that module.
I actually am adding xloud in the next version already too.

the 1.40 system dump I made was from an unbranded Mini, bought in Germany, running with O2-DE.

That's that playstore version not the rom, on a ota from HTC on 4.2.2 are only really minor updates like HTC speak seems to get updated and minor camera tweaks and noticed alot off Google bloat apps just to give a little taste of kitkat has afew was added to the ota for 1.40 but hard to tell has they was no information about it. But major changes is if the rom was upgraded to 4.3 or 4.4 but has being a custom Rom the changes can be made by porting or using updates from the HTC one or any other from of updates or modded apps. HTC updates doesn't mean they're the best has has you all have come to use custom build roms so don't anyways think the ota is the best because in my opinion it's just mainly aload of bloat from HTC trying to get out of making big updates for this device. Pushing little ota's to keep people happy but really slacking behind the rest of the devices

Thank you for explaining. Now I understand a lot more about it. Do you know if there are ways to unroot the mini atm? Because I need to return it to att for a replacement because there are cracks on the white plastics. I always had my case on and barely took it out until yesterday I read about a thread here and found out that mines has one too.

Really this should be posted in Q&A not in this thread has it's disrespectful has it's not a question about the rom. But you need a ruu to go back to out of the box, unrooted, locked so it looks untamperd. But has again HTC lack big time on ruu too. Can't find any atm it's a big disappointment that this phone lacks such software for people to recovery their phones if needed. Only way I would suggest is use the stock Rom and install using stock kernel/boot.img the fastboot recovery.img found in a ota.zip then fastboot oem lock that will relock bootloader but that's close has you will get I think.

and also keep the theme from 0.7 if you can

Kernel is unrooted right?
Can't install PAID APPS from Play Store......
Any ideas?
Thanks!

you mean stock? you can normally check in settings > about phone > software information > more - official/stock kernels don't normally have someone's name against them
e.g. my evo 3d with stock kernel is [email protected] #1 SMT PREEMPT

can xposed framework work on this rom?
I can't actually see much about it on the HTC One Mini from a quick search... in the old days (on the HTC One) there was a zip that was required because HTC stripped out some of the features IIRC - can't see that or any for the latest version and after installing xposed it seems to lose settings each reboot... any advice?
thanks

Well I never had any problems with xposed. This isn't the HTC One either. It's the Mini where there lack of support for everything, unlike the One so it takes users like me to try make it happen has no one cares for the device.Try updating your su or using a different one and it's setup correctly

[Q] run android 4.0 apps on gingerbread

hi ! Members
pleas :laugh: is there is any way to run android 4.0 apps on gingerbread and thanks

Running Android 4.0 on Gingerbread doesn't particularly make any sense.
What you really mean is, is there any way to run Android 4.0 on your phone? Assuming it's a yes, yes it is possible. It all comes down to what phone you have and if your phone has aftermarket firmware or official updates of the newer os.
If you want the feel of Android 4.0 then j suggest you download a launcher called "Holo Launcher" from the Play Store™.
If that's not what you want, and you want the full package, whole android update of 4.0 then yeah as said. It comes down to your device if it had enough support from members here or the manufacturer itself.

i forget to write apps i mean is there is any way to run app which require android 4 to run on gingerbread

If that is the case then no, android 4.0 uses new API, and therefore it will not work on gingerbread. If you attempt to install an Android 4.0 app it will come up with and error "problem parsing package".
So once again, nope, you cannot install android 4.0 ( ICS ) Apps on gingerbread.

my phone is samsung gt-5360 but i can't find real ics with no bugs thanks for you so much krishneelg3

There are Applications on the Play Store which is from new android platforms, but will work on older platforms. Search for ICS messaging, camera, gallery. From there you'll find more. And no worries.
Also keep track about the info given fro aftermarket Roms, as developers try to fix everything and soon enough most of the bugs are gone and the ROM can be used a a daily driver.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

there are lots of ics+ roms for your device, they all cant be completely buggy, you even have kitkat which is awesome for this small phone.
