1) Get Spare Parts from the market
2) Launch it
3) Look for compatibility mode; uncheck it
4) Reboot
5) Say thank you Sauronith
I'm having the same problem, and compatibility mode didn't make a difference :-(

Can someone point me to some instructions on how to use Root Manager? Or, if it is even on my phone.
I'm a little new, but have reflashed my phone to the .435 ROM, rooted it and installed JIT. I'm just not sure where to go on the phone to add some of the new features I want like a camera app from another memeber and a battery in the status bar.
Thanks!
You mean root explorer?
Mount R/W and mess around

It is only on your phone if you paid for it, no free version.

Okay, thanks for the replies.
28spawn wrote in his camera app instructions:
Instructions (new steps 2)
Using Root Manager copy the SemcCameraApplication.apk to /system/app overwriting the original one.
Long press on the overwrited app and select Permissions, and make sure that these options are checked: the whole first column and the first from the second.
So, I need to get Root Manager. It is an app???
I'll do some searching for it.

Or maybe pay for that kind of app?
For Root Explorer the R/W button, Menu button, and long presses are your friend.
Menu button is on the bottom left side of your phone.
Hope this helps.

That's one of the first things I checked in case it had turned off after my update, but it hadn't. The first answer got it sorted by uninstalling and reinstalling though.
I have reported these the past few days and every post was ignored either by people talking about their battery or about how they didn't follow directions. These are my issues and was wondering if anyone else has had these.
*frequency setting under advance settings for wifi is missing
*downloaded Widgets from play store won't show in .5.0 in the widget section of the app drawer
*installing adobe flash from touch installer doesn't work. When I try to view flash content from the web it says I don't have flash. (Fix: don't install flash from installer but instead wait and install it from the play store)

1. Not sure what the frequency option would do in the advanced wifi menu so I can't comment.
2. What launcher are you using? I chose to install apex launcher and my widgets show up in the app drawer. Trebeuchet sucks.
3. I chose to install flash through the installer and flash is working for me. Not sure if it's a specific site you want me to try but all the flash sites are use work.

Its an option to set the wifi to auto, 2.4, or 5ghz. And I'm using the razr ics blur launcher. Tried going back to trebechet and it wouldn't show either. I'll try apex or nova later. And one site had a funny video on it that I viewed on the last build just fine but this build using flash in the installer said I needed to updated flash and I went to the adobe flash test site and it said I had an outdated flash that I needed to update through the play store but if u use the flash from the installer there's no option to update or uninstall

Ok, you need to uninstall the razr blur launcher to get trebeuchet to show back up and also the razr launcher is the reason for your widgets not showing up. It has nothing to do with the rom. Just use apex and you're set. And you have the answer for the flash although mine worked from flashing through the rom.

I did not need to uninstall the razor launcher to get trebechet to show. Just had to reset defaults under apps. Also installed the apex launcher and the new Widgets still weren't there. So I did a full wipe reflashed .5.0 with apex launcher as default went to the market and installed a few Widgets and they still won't show up in my widget area. Went back to .4.5 and used the trebechet launcher as it is stock with previous builds of cm9. Went to the market installed a few Widgets and they showed just fine. Then flashed .5.0 over this flash like you would for any update and all the Widgets that I installed from the market using 4.5 are there. So I tried again to download more Widgets from the market and now those won't show. Only the Widgets that came with cm9 plus the Widgets I installed from .4.5

Have you tries flashing twice? I've never ran into this issue because I came from the early builds of cm9 which didn't require flashing twice. The most common problem with boot loops on cm9 is from not flashing twice. Try that.
Full wipe
Flash cm9 .5.0 or .5.1
Flash cm9 .5.0 or .5.1 again
Flash gapps
Reboot
Idk if that is the case for kitchen sink. I have not flashed that yet. Still too many issues and people seem to be having better luck with the miui portion of KS than cm9

I'm running the official att ics rom rooted and cwm. Apps like wifi tether do not work. What do I have to do to make tethering work?
Thanks.
Here is what I did to get it to work;
1. Used Titanium Backup Pro, under Backup/Restore... uninstall TetheringProvision.apk.
2. there is an app in the Market called FoxFi, but unfortunately my carrier will not let me download it from the market. If that is the case, on their Market page, they list the link to download the .apk file to install on your Note. This app will allow you to use Wifi and USB tethering.

I just tried that but after starting foxfi it says my wifi turned off and tethering has stopped.
Did you reboot your phone after installing FoxFi? And you are using FoxFi's wifi features, not the phone's default, correct? Just checking here...

Sorry but xda search sucks and is down half the time. I searched before posting and didn't get this in my results. I will try this now.
Edit: thanks that did it but I had to first restore the tethering apk I previously deleted to try foxfi.

OK - I have rooted my phone with Odin, but I am not sure how to flash the .zip file that is mentioned in that link... I am a total noob with android... Any help would be appreciated.
Reboot to download mode: from a turned off phone squeeze both volume up and down at the same time and hold them in. Now push and hold the power button until the phone vibrates, then let go of the power button.
Keep squeezin' those volume buttons until you see the recovery menu.
Choose flash zip. Navigate to your zip. Select and confirm you mean to flash that zip. Wait a few until done.
Reboot normally. But any change to the system can slow down the boot time. Don't fiddle with any buttons for at least a xouple of minutes to let the change settle in.
I know from bitter experience that SkyGo (UK) doesn't work on a rooted or jailbroken phone (something to do with counters) but has anyone here found a way round this? I realize that the official release for this is November, but the principle of whether rooting can be detected is the same.
Thanks
I used to temp unroot when using sky go and restore root afterwards. All this can be done without a reboot.
Use hidemyroot or voodoo ota rootkeeper to make a copy of the su binary, unroot device, uninstall superuser app, force close sky go if its running and then reopen.
I wonder if you could used the multi user function of 4.2.2 to run sky go under another user

Why go through so much trouble?
I have this problem with an app from my cable provider which enables me to watch live tv on my tablet, it also fails when it detects root.
The only thing I need to do is open the SuperSU app and disable root, it's as easy as that for me.
Maybe this also works for you?

No, that would also be to much trouble for me, I like things simple.
Just open the SuperSU app, go to settings -> Enable superuser -> uncheck the box besides it.
It disables root access.
Works like a charm for me but I don't use the Sky app, I use another app provided by my cable operator/isp which also checks for root.
Good luck.
Unfortunately it didn't work. Sky really are on the ball when it comes to securing this app.
Looks like I'll have to try the only other thing I can think to make it work, flash back to a stock image using clockwork mod.
Thanks for your help anyhow!

Judging from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506967 they're not only checking for root but are also checking for custom roms.
The bastards!
Good thing Telenet (my isp in Belgium) isn't doing this crap.
Good luck finding a solution, to bad it didn't work.
