is this working on the Vox? I don't get it installed due to "not enough system permissions"

Same situation here...

Hmm... You guys tried unlocking your phone with the "SDA Unlocker" app floating around ? That should do the trick.

Been there, done that...I also used the Security Configuration Manager from Microsoft to disable security to check if it would solve this issue but nothing happened :S

I did it also, but nothing happened

it may interest all you vox owners (like myself), that I have looked thru the coding of that cab and have been coding all the nessesary bits for it to work on our phones. I'm still working on the cpr file (the one that positions everything), and then I will cab it all up. im still trying to contact the developer to see if he knows whys its not installing thou (and to make sure its okay to poke around in his file!)
EDIT>>
I've just noticed the developer has changed his use of the TestUIPlugin slide for the use of the welcome screen slide, due to reliability and positioning, BUT I personally use the welcome slide for shortcuts, and have had no issues with the testuiplugin slide, plus I notice the welcome screen cannot refresh like the testui one can, so i'm sticking with it. If anyone is interested in my cpr file, or others, I can post them.

Kos letme know when your cab is ready...
thank you

So.. is it possible to install the weather plugin on the Vox? Please post the cpr file or whatever is needed to install it.

If you go the original thread in the Excalibur forum, you can download the cab there and install it on your Vox. It uses the WelcomeCenter plugin which is already properly formatted for the Vox as well. Go download it and try it

I tried every version posted in the Excalibur thread and it doesn't install. It says i don't have sufficient permissions. Rebooted, tried again and still nothing...
EDIT: Found the original version and it still does not install...

The solution I found to make it work is to install everything manually including the creation of the registry keys... :| :S ....but it works now ;P

Well, now I have an issue: everytime the weather updates, my start menu dies...it just stops working...

You guys should try unlocking your device with the SDA Unlocker app that's floating around. That will most definitely do the trick.

I already said that didn't work as the other user also said...I had to install everything contained in your cab files manually to make it work...

My bad.. didn't see that part. Well how does it look in portrait mode ? Is it messed up ?

until now everything looks good even in portrait mode...the only issue that sometimes happens is that when I update the weather, sometimes the start menu stops working...I click in the start menu and nothing happens...I have to reboot to make it work again...

[ROM] Cyanogen 4.2.4 + Navigation MT3G ONLY!

PLEASE GO TO MY OTHER LINK, ALL INCAP'D in an UPDATE.ZIP!!!

FOR SAPPHIRE
I read a post earlier about fixing some apps not working.
in build.prop
change to 4 instead of 5.
ro.build.version.sdk=4
Did this and re-ran part 1 and part 2. Works fine with Handcent and facebook app working. haven't got any FC with other apps and navigation still working after a few hours and some reboots.
Uploaded a new .rar with changes to build.prop
http://www.mediafire.com/?jwhmkzay2mm
Extract All to Desktop
Run part 1 - when prompted hit any key and phone will reboot.
when up and running, run part 2.
Test nav by opening google maps and geting directions. Underneath "Show on Maps" you should see "Navigate" If you don't try installing Google Voice (fixed it for a lot of people)
If you did the above and Navigate isn't working, here is a link to the build.prop version that causes some app errors but gets nav Working

Thank for putting this all together - i'll try it later on today.
Quick question though, why would you wipe after you install the rooted base? Would that not defy the point of installing the rooted base in the first place? Shouldn't it be: 1. Wipe, 2. rootedbase.zip, 3. Reboot, 4. cynwmap.zip?

Yeah that looks correct to me. My understanding was 1. Wipe 2. Flash base 3. Reboot in recovery again 4. Flash Cynwmap

Also: If we already are already running CM 4.2.3.1 can we just flash the cynwmap.zip over the top without worrying about flashing the base again?

if i wanted to just run part 1.bin how would i do this? i tried and i got some errors about the files not existing.

That should work to push the correct buid props, the reason that the rooted base was put in there, was to add the maps to the original package...
I'm going to modify this later tonight to make it just a patch update deal...
Got a micro-bio test in the AM
and yes, i had the first two instructions fliped.. i'll edit to correct it.

What are the odds Cyanogen puts something like this in the next update?
I hope so
ps, first post, been rooted and running Cyanogenmod for a week or so now, really digging it.

unfortunately 0.... if you look back in the news he got a C&D from google...

I forgot about that.
Well is there a way to make a quick patch job of it for noobs like myself?

I tried this exactly was instructions said...but couldn't get navigation...
I went to "get directions" and typed in the addresses and whatnot, but didn't get any navigation? Maybe someone can enlighten me (isn't it supposed to be turn by turn voice?). Thanks

no offense to the Original Poster but...
can anyone else confirm that this actually works?
i really want Google Maps Nav on my phone!!!
Thanks again to the OP for this.
EDIT!
aha jabbawalkee just answered my post. lol

I used it on my mt3g with the danger/death spl. partitioned my sd 3 ways.
I'll try it right now again...

did you get a prompt to download the voices??

theomajigga said:

Click to expand...

No...nothing of the sort. It just looked like the normal Google Maps app to me

My steps EXACTALLY
Ok here's what I did, and its only for the **mt3g** (possibly the sapphire)
1. used amon's recovery and partitioned my card 3 ways.
2. enabled USB mass storage from recovery
3. Wiped
4. choose update ---> rooted base.zip
5. reboot right into recovery
6. wipe again (probably repetitive)
7. choose update ---> cyan w map.zip
8. wipe again for good measure (again probably repetitive)
9. reboot
at this point i get the familiar cyan boot, it goes into the setup and says welcome to droid.
I skip all setup because I have to use wifi, probably not relevant but that is what I do.
Enable wifi.
click on maps (which you will see has a different logo now)
enter 2 USA addresses
click get directions
it finds directions and right under show on map, it says navigate.
clicked on navigate.
I then get prompted to download voices, click download
sign-in to google shiz
download voice pacakage
rerun maps and do a directions again
click navigate
EDIT:
There is a possibility that you will have to clear the data that is stored in the applications:
Settings
Applications
scroll to maps
Click on clear data
done.

If this works, there is a couple more changes I am going to make, but I first want to see if people can get this working.

[Guide][WindowsAndroid] Install Gapps on WindowsAndroid

Download the program from: WindowsAndroid
Run as administrator and install the program.
Install Gapps:
1. Download gapps for ICS HERE.
2. Unzip the gapps.
3. Find the system folder that was unzipped, then go into the apps folder. Copy all of the apks
4. Go to C:\SocketeQ\windowsandroid_root\system\apps
5. Paste all of the apks in that directory.
6. Restart Windowsandroid
7. Enjoy gapps.
Note: You will now be able to add a Google account and get into Google Play but there is not really anything in the Play Store at this time.
Note #2: There have been reports that, this may not work on AMD processors. Intel seem to work just fine.

Very cool. Like you say, little you can do with it so far and very regular crashes even just using Play Store and built-in apps, but definitely one to keep an eye on.

The emulator won't even start.
I get an error in the cmd window that app_process(4776) terminated abnormally.
I got some screenshots if it helps.

Are you running it as an administrator? If so try removing the program from Add or Remove programs. Then going to your C: drive and delete the file SocketeQ. Re install the program, once it is installed open WindowsAndroid first. Then close it and install the Gapps after running it one time. See if that helps anything.

Sorry for late reply, lots of school lately.
I get to bootanimation/loading screen, then the error comes.

Has anyone found out how to switch to Full-Screen or change resolution yet?

Issues encountered
Issues with WindowsAndroid encountered so far - post will be updated.
Play store - All apps incompatible, shows few apps
Voice search doesn't work
Developer options makes crash
Impossible to change layout and screen size
No Security settings
No unlock to camera (at least not with no webcam)

so what apps do run on this? or is a way to force an app to run, maybe changing the device id?

As of right now you just have to try and see what you can get to work. This is a very early release and so there are a lot of things that need fixed. I just want to let people know that this is out there and that its something to look out for.

Installed through the Play store, nothing. Even if you can find an app listed as compatible, they won't download. Manually installed, try it and see.

[Q] OmegaRom beta7 GPS fix not working

I just installed OmegaRom beta 7
did the GPS fix by @Notonlyeyes ... but it is not working
I just copied the 3 files to respective /system folders using root explorer
when I turn on the location in settings (any mode)...it doesn't detect my location
it had worked the first time I had installed beta 6 and the GPS fix
what might be the reason
also what is the best way to verify if your device is detecting the location correctly by network or any means

Mine seems to be OK.
Install GPS-test from Play. Fire that up. GPS should show as "on." Go outside, see if it shows satellites.

that s the problem...when I turn it on in GPS test...I am directed to settings-location
but even after setting that on...GPS test still shows GPS off....any idea

Change files permission in rw-r-r ???

Just tried that...no luck
when I open google webpage...it doesn't show my location at the bottom
even if though settings/location battery save mode is selected
really baffles me something that worked earlier why it shouldn't work now
are these two things GPS and detecting location through network independant

solved....though I don't know the exact reason
This time I installed OmegaRom beta 6
then flashed Gapps KK 442 20140118 file
but main difference
1) did not install Link2sd
2) supersu v1.99 instead of v2.0 (shouldn't affect though)
why these should affect though
thanks :good: @Notonlyeyes ... I ve kept the files to rw-r-r and :good: @Dovidhalevi

[Q] Can't open notification bar in L - a joke?

I've just installed the L preview on my Nexus 5 using TWRP and the first thing I did notice - I cannot open the notification area, oh well, I see a part of it (see attached screenshot) but when I pull it down to reveal the rest of the options it immediately jumps up and hides again. Reboot didn't help. It that a kind of bug or feature? Has anyone experienced that problem?

Lots of trouble when u take the easy way to flash L
Flash all works without any extra bug...
Flashed L twice (clean install via adb) and never had any problem.. So the joke is localized

did you dirty flash? the the #1 common issue if you dirty flashed. itll always be if you do dirty flash to L. if you did, then wipe data and reflash.
