I am excited about Rom Manager support for the Atrix.
Has anybody flashed GAPPS for Gingerbread using Rom Manager yet?
I am mostly afraid that if I flash them, the MotoBlur replacement apps for them will break stuff pretty bad.
I am running CherryBlur currently.
I'm thinking about giving it a try later on today, but before I journey into the abyss, I figured I'd ask.
I'd really like to have google talk video, the stock dialer, the stock contacts app, etc.
Anybody?
I think gapps are only for asop, I may be wrong though

I was wondering the same thing. If its incompatible shouldn't it NOT be available to download? I mean there is nothing else listed there other than ninja rom and QuickROM but im sure if you were on another device more would be showing. It looks like its device specific.

Hey im running CM7.2 and a lot of apps that were compatible before with stock are not now. I was wondering if any one else has these problems and if there is a fix.

Can you be specific? Which apps?
I tried to download word with friends. And it said it was incompatible. And pretty much all the wallpaper apps were incompatible. Such as picspeed wallpapers HD. I may be mistaken and maybe these apps are really just not compatible with the photon. But I remember playing words about a month ago when I was on stock.
Wwf works...using it now...

Hmm.. mind trying picspeed HD wallpapers?
Works....did u flash gapps after flashing the rom?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Sure did. Should I reflash gapps?
Couldn't hurt...wipe cache and dalvik then reflash

So i have been having a similar problem. I tried installing tiny tower, discover card, capital one bank, and citi credit card apps and all of them said "your device is incompatible with this version" on the google play store. I tried to use the apk to install tiny tower manually and it came back saying "application not installed" I also tried reflashing gapps as was suggested above and that didn't seem to change anything.
These apps all worked fine on the stock sense OS but they don't work on cm7.2
I've heard that there are patches for CM7.2 RC1, is that true, does anyone know where i could get them so i could flash them?
The same issue
Hi,
I have Samsung Galaxy 3 and since I flashed the CM 7.2. RC3 I wasn't able to install many application. Do anyone has the solution?
Thanks...
From my experience the apps not compatible is due to changing settings of your screen density
. Stock is 240. Have you changed it? Rom toolbox? Modify build.prop? Or even in the cm7 settings?

I just flashed back to CM7 from MIUI until they get some of the bugs fixed. But I loved almost everything about MIUI, the browser included. I love the full screen capability, the browser rotation lock, and it just seemed fast and smoother.
Is there any way to use the MIUI browser on CM7? I tried replacing the stock "Browser.apk", but it wouldnt let me. I also tried installing the MIUI browser.apk and it just comes up and says "Not Installed".
I'm wondering if its even possible since the MIUI framework is different than CM7.
Any thoughts?
In order to get it work you would need the browser framework files from MIUI.Im not sure if their compatible with CM7 thought because i think MIUI has some 4.0 framework in it.

I'll give it a shot.

Thanks Sealed Fate.
I do believe MIUI is on 4.0 framework.
I beleive the only way to do it would to MIUI push the framework to system. Im not sure what exactly the result of doing that would be tho..could create some problems if not bootloop you. I tried playing around with the apk file and the libwebcore.so as well as some other libs and it was a no go. You should given Miren browser a shot its very similar.

You know I'm pretty sure there is a ported miui browser lying around. I've downloaded and tried it once when using eclipse 2.1
FROM MY MB870 W/ CM7.2 RC1
Anybody ever port this?
Nope it hasn't been ported. The closest thing to this browser that will work with CM7 is Miren browser. I was thinking about trying to get it to work on CM7 but after taking with a couple people I decided not to. Simply because it requires replacing so much CM7 framework it defeats the purpose of getting it working. I mean sure you would have the MIUI browser working but in doing that would create so many other problems. CM7 uses 2.37 framework and the framework used for the MIUI browser is 4.0. I think there would be better hope getting this browser on DZK's CM9.

A working Google Now for ICS AOSP ROM...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
Thank the OP in the above link if it works for you!
Got it up and working on my phone. I'm running Shostack2 3.1.1
Many similar threads on XDA , NOT COOL !1!
I can see multiple similar threads on half-baked Google now from JB which is still quite buggy... atleast one in all smartphone's theme section ...
You should mention whats working and whats not before directing someone to this link ... is not very usable as of now.

Exactly, I've had this for a day or so, and voice search isn't working. But they're aware of that issue, and attempting to fix it. OP should mention that voice doesn't work.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
Voice-to-text will not work without kernel support or a hack forcing the app to use the existing Google Speech-to-text implementation. Either direction will take an obscene amount of time, i'd imagine. Don't wait up...
Why is this sinking down the app list?! People need to see this!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
After using for several days, one issue I've noticed (besides voice search not working), is that the "cards" do not automagically "appear" on my phone. Rather, to view any card, I have to manually open the app. Once there I see a relevant card, such as the weather, or the length of my commute to work when the phone figures it's time for me to go to work. But my understanding is that Google Now, working properly, is supposed to make these cards "pop up" on your phone, rather than you having to manually open the app.
tks,trying...
Hi All, can this be installed on Stock ICS rom ?

Yes. Search for mikeyxda07. I believe that's the file. One of the xda devs (mike) has one up and running. Also, I think Shostock has it in his ROM. Why not just switch to JB and install it with one of the various Aroma gapps installers? Works well.

Hey guys, I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to pull the stock google search apk from the X2 for me.
(No updates - after SBF, before market updates)
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my SCH-I405 using xda app-developers app
For Gingerbread? I'm on ICS so I dont know if that one would be the same. But can't you take a Gingerbread ROM and extract the files and take the google search apk from that?
Yeah, GB version. I could. Just don't have my X2 anymore so I deleted my files for it. All the ROMs and everything.
I'm at work though and can't use a computer yet
Sent from my SCH-I405 using xda app-developers app
Would the Eclipse one work? I can download it and extract the apk for you.
How about the "quicksearchbox" from CM7?
Here is the one from Liberty. May be more stockish.
Thanks, but those didn't work. I want it because the updated google search app does not change when the ICS go launcher theme is applied. Instead of the clear bar it displays the all white box which totally messes my phones look up. I ran into the same issue on the x2 but fixed it under settings, apps, manage apps, google search, uninstall updates. This phone is newer so its stock app is already updated. I think I need the stock x2 app from a sbf or something.
I emailed the dev about it when I had my x2 but no change yet

Ah. Sorry those didnt work. I understand the whole "gotta have my phone look good" thing. I have OCD when it comes to that. lol
It's all goodie. Bought holo launcher plus. Much better than touchwiz. X 10000

Alright, following This Guide I got Google now working.
To summarize what I did
1. Root phone using the Korean Root method
2. I unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM using Project FreeGee
3. I booted into CWM and installed This zip.At the I was writing this guide, I freegee was on version 0.5
4. My phone restarted and froze up about twice before finally staying booted. It seems to have normalized now.
edit:Right now most things seem to work.
If anyone finds a better version of Google now, please let me know and post the how-to.
I didn't make the zips and all I have done is follow the instructions and write down my personal experience. I give full credit to the author of the original post for their instructions/work they did. However, since the LGOG doesn't need project Butter, Google Now is the main thing we are missing from 4.1 and it should help ease the wait for a stable AOSP ROM. If anyone has any issues let me know and I'll make a list.

Right now the main thing that doesn't seem to work is Calendar/setting alarms.

THis is great news. Right now I'm pondering whether to get this phone or the Note II, and Google now (which I have on my Captivate running SlimBean 3.0) is the one thing I really cannot imagine giving up.
Question: when you say that Calendar/settings alamrs don't work, do you mean that they don't work at all, or that they don't show up in Google Now?
I was referring to not working in Google now. Although i did manage to set an alarm with it shortly after this post.
Also fwiw I had the captivate too. I try to stick with nexus hardware.

OK, I can't get it to launch links for me after searching. Anyone else? I'm wondering if it's because I removed Chrome and the LG browser?
Sent from my LG-E970 using Tapatalk 2
Edit: Works most of the time but I also have issues launching links. I still have chrome and the stock browser installed, it will launch them I just have to click on them multiple times. I'm also occasionally having issues exiting to the home screen using either the home button or the back button.
Links can be a little stubborn for me but, usually open.

Titanium backup.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
Uninstall stock voice search with titanium backup or you will get problems with android keyboard. It makes it try use them both for voice typing. I'd assume it may be the cause of any and all problems.
Edit: scratch that... Since installing Google now I get all kinds of freezing reboots. Caca. Then again it just be saying f u to nova launcher. Clearing cashes fixes it until it happens again.
Has anyone had good luck with this?

working for me too, aside from the link clicking issues
One of the cards says there's an update available in the Play Store. When I go there it says my device is incompatible. Is there something we could tweak to the build.prop in order to get this update? Or will that mess things up due to the nature of how it was installed?
