Hi I'm new to the rooting and booting of android phones, I'm currently using Chips N' Salsa V3 and it's working pretty good, but while removing unwanted programs I came across a small problem. The mirror app is part of the HTCcamera.apk (I think I did that right) and was wondering if there is a replacement camera apk for flashing?

Just in case anyone hasn't seen this yet
http://rootzwiki.com/_/articles/download-android-market-update-3311-r94
That's where I read about it.(someone mentioned it in another thread also...sorry can't remember your name...ill edit if u reply )
Here is a direct download link also found at bottom of the rootzwiki article http://lts.cr/BDW_
I just installed it and so far it looks great. They have finally brought back the "top NEW free" and "top NEW paid" sections for those that.miss that. I know I did.
some new settings options and nice UI tweaks.
I haven't made any purchase/download yet though. Will updated this post when I do.
Hopefully google got it right this time
If you do this I would recommend making a copy of your current vending.apk in case you want to go back. I just used root explorer and copied the apk to my sdcard and installed the new market after that as normal.
Have fun
::::::UPDATE::::::
For all those who are cautious
I have successfully bought apps, updated apps, downloaded new apps, and also downloaded apps I had previously bought but hadn't had installed.
Also when you look at an app it shows you how many of each different star ratings it has.
I.e.-- 5stars:20 users
4stars:60 users
3stars:30 users
Etc..
Working smoothly all around. Much better than 3.1.5 or 3.1.3 imho
thanks man, will be uploading now!!!
I'm loving the new market. It's very polished now. The icons are now sized properly on the screen.
thx im loving the auto update
I upgraded last night and am still running into compatibility issues with certain apps ... ended up going back to trusty 2.3.6.
Is there anyone running build.prop edits (in particular, enhanced screen resolution) who has been able to get this version of the market working without any restrictions?

Yeah finally there is no lag when switching between the screens. But it's NOT faster than the old version. :/

I don't really mess wit build.prop other than vm heap, max window events, wifi scan interval.
and I have not once ever had a compatibility issue.
Did you send feedback about that to google?
They might have something you can do or may work on it for future market versions
OK so a year later and frustration with Moto update waits, I'm considering rooting this phone. My main reason for doing so is mainly to freeze or remove Blur and carrier (Bell) bloatware, but I have some questions about which way to go with this:
1. Rooting but not flashing a custom ROM. Instead, freeze the bloat using TiBU. This would be the far simpler method I think. I would then install a custom launcher (I currently prefer Launcher 7) and freeze the Blur home launcher so it doesn't run behind Launcher 7. My concern about this method is that I've read occasional reports by people that some of the "frozen" Blur system apps actually continued to work...
2. Flashing CM7. This is my 2nd choice. I'm a pretty lazy guy, and I don't mind rooting with how easy it is to do these days, but the extra work flashing custom ROMS isn't appealing to me. If I am forced to go this route, (a)What's the best way to freeze or remove the launcher that comes with CM7 and replace with one of my choosing so that two launchers are not running at the same time? (b)Does CM7 come with all the Motoblur and Carrier stuff removed?
I would go with the CM7 route. it is a little more to do but not by much and the payoff will be much greater. once you have it though as far as the launcher goes just install the one you want and use titanium back up to uninstall ADW (the launcher that comes with most CM7 builds). And use CM7 is a non BLUR ROM so blur is fully non existant on it. and all the other bloat ware is gone as well. You can go even further and use the nuetrino ROM witch is reall barebones and you can add on the stuff you need but i would suggest grabbing the CM7 RC1 nightly and running with that. Any question on how to do any of this just read the noob guide over and it is a breeze and you will even seen how easy it is to do after that and find yourself testing out many diffrent roms.
thanks, I only have 2 questions that will make or break CM7 for me -
has a good stable solution been found for the poor camera quality I've seen reported with CM7?
How well does CM7 play with GPS and the Motorola Cardock? I use those a LOT
I hae had no issues with camera quality on my CM7 and as far as the GPS car dock not sure how it will effect it. i can say that GPS over all is also not a issue for me. i dont have the car dock but i do use GPS navigation most of the day every day and have no issues.

Have you tried the miui camera app? I notice better quality with that camera app on cm7 than the stock cm7 camera app.

I have not tried that one I have seen that it is really nice and has many more options than the stock cm7 just never worried to much about it

Hello readers, I'm running JB 4.1.2 MIUI v5 3.4.19 on my phone. Everything is perfect, but the camera quality is awful–the one thing that gets to me the most!
EDIT: I have tried pushing the Gallery2.apk to my system apps, but it only force closed, and I dont think apps in general has anything to do with the camera profiles/performances.
So, I was wondering if it is possible to port a camera's profiles/source, etc. from another ROM (eg. CM 10.1 camera) to the one I'm using now? If it IS possible, how would I be able to do it? Thanks!
UPDATE 10.10pm: I found a solution to my problem, if anyone is interested. I flashed a camera mod from another forum in the Android Development section. When I looked in the file, there were only two lib files in the system that –I am guessing–solved my problem.

awesome rom, everytime, I click on the camera app, I get an error mesage stating the Gallery is closed, I didnt see any camera related issues posted in the development thread, so seeking help here.
The front-facing camera on the gTablet is not fully supported on any of the ROMs past Froyo. It is a known problem.
However, if you have a spare USB webcam lying around, then you can use that via the library (only for Android JB 4.x) in this thread. The USB webcam should then act like a rear-facing camera in all the standard apps.
Thanks for the heads up, I've used about a dozen roms from this site, settling for the Stock w/ enhancement pack since I was a die hard hold out because I loved the dashboard app, I've finally starting trying new roms again because I was sick & tired of not being able to get any new apps from the app market. or having to side load everything thank you, I had not realized that was a common problem.
Other than that, the Rom rocks!
This is my first thread so, here it goes... I got the new LG F60 and i just ADORE IT... But, there are a couple of issues... First of all, it says the phone needs to have 4gb memory and i get only 1.3 in my settings>apps and the same in settings>memory.
When i got in settings>memory it said i had 1.3 free and among other stuff last on the list in MISC it said that my system data(yeah in misc) took up 2.3gb! That's enormous! So i tried googling the issue but i came up with nothing, i tried the forum on android central and no solution what so ever, so this is kinda my last hope.
Oh yeah, i did a factory reset and it didn't help at all, same size remained...
Also, as noted in my manual, i was supposed to have these apps but i don't: quick memo app, default gallery app, calculator app, video player app, radio app... Only gapps and the very basic ones that come with the phone... I have no idea how to fix it if it's possible or what the problem is... Here are some screenshots that might help a bit(note the last image is after the factory reset, and it says that the whole partition is 1.3 gb when i connect it to my pc and all together in settings>memory it says it has 4 gb):
I have one and w_8gb i love this cell.

I bought this phone today and having the same issue . I want to return it back to the seller but not possible because i have broken the seal of the package. This really sucks, no room for install applications.
I had the same problem. I bought additional SD card class 10 with 16gb storage, downloaded bunch of apps (for gallery, even the photo app - the stock one isn't that practical) and thats it. F60 is running the stock 4.4.4 kit kat so that is why we get so many Google related applications and no custom ones. Hope this helps.
