Thanks

Problem with market??

I have a fascinate I have been playing with since development started almost for it.
I just went to JT's VGB v.6, and I have no market. Before when I was using his v.4 I had no issues. Now after switching to v.6 I can not pull up my market to save my life, and there are a few apps I am needing from it.
I can log, do whatever anyone may ask, if someone can help.
I will give a few basic stats in my phone info so it makes it easier.
Android Version- 2.3.5
Baseband Version S:i500.04 V.EC09
Kernel- 2.6.35.7-g70250c3
[email protected] #1
Rom Version- Vanilla_Gingerbread-v6
Build Number- GRJ90
If anyone knows of a known market issue, feel free to chime in.
Have you tried to re flash gapps?
good day.
Reflashed gapps....can not believe I didn't think to try that.
Go ahead and stamp me with a dunce logo....geez.

[Q] Wich rom and kernel for the S2?

Hello guys,
I own a samsung galaxy s2 right now and i got the following installed on it:
Android version: 2.3.5
Baseband version: I9200XXKI3
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKI3-CL577579 [email protected] #Supercore 2.0
Build: DarkyROM2 XXKI3 Base
Now i wonder wich is the best one i could use for the S2? I see so many roms and kernels.
Another thing in this version they changed the camara and on my idea its slower and darker. Where can i get a better one or the default camara.
Sincerely thanks

ROM is a matter of taste. There is no "Best ROM ever". There is only "Best ROM that suits my taste".
You want some of the (GOOD) samsung features on a custom ROM that is fast? (like h/w accelerated browser,cam app). Try GingerMOD Vanilla
You want pure aosp rom with minimal (really minimal) apps that is fast?
Try Oxygen ROM.
You want freshness, and innovation?
Try CyanogenMod 7
Still lotsa players out there like Cognition, Villain, Galnet, etc etc,
Try them all and see which one is best for u!

Samsung galaxy SII ROM / Kernel problem

Hello guys! (I am a noob by the way...)
Not a major issue but somewhat annoying; 2 days ago i changed Kernel from the stock orange version to gingerbread supercurious 2.3.3 using ODIN and the colors looked rather odd and pale and the performance was reduced ( on quadrant standard from 3200 to 2900) . I changed to Darky's Rom and therefore upgraded to android 2.3.4/5 but the colors and the camera still aren't right although i now score 3800 on quadrant standard benchmark!
Current version:
Model : GT - I9100
Android version : 2.3.4
Base band version: I9100XXKG1
Kernel Version: [email protected]#supercore_1.0_e
Version number: DarkyROM2 XXKG1 BASE
Please help!
I want my really nice Superamoled display back!
Dude u should have post this in the q&a section
But anyway try flashing a different kernel like siyah or ninphitamine or other popular kernels.
This should solve the problem

Sorry, i thought it was an appropriate section to post the question and for some reason, the website would not let me post it in the Q&A section.
Will the others roms enable me to keep my incredible performance ? ( because although the colours are not as good as before, it is so stable and fluid even with a lot of widget and background apps running!)
Thank you for answering.
Thread moved to appropriate section.

[Q] What Kernel do I Use

Hi People I have a Problem that should be easy to solve for most of you ^^.
I have a rootet Galaxy S2 with the following rom on it:
.galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-roms/darky-ics-rom-for-rooted-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100-xxlpqofficial-ota/
My Device is running
Android Version: 4.0.3 (Official Samsung Firmware)
BaseBand: I9100xxlph
Kernel: 3.0.15-I9100xxlph-cl118559 [email protected] #3
build: lidroid-resurrection remix ics 9.6 by westcripro.build.version.incremental=xxlph
everything is working fine execpt the batterylife.
in my opinion the last rom (stock) was way better.
so my question is: is there any kernel that matches the rom i am actually using that increases the batterylife ?
at "normal" use my batt is loosing power very fast.
-no gps on
-display turned down
-wifi is not running
i am very new to those things. its my first xp with rooting and modding.
help would be nice.
Chainfire has a CF-root for LPQ. Maybe try that and have a mess about with the voltages?

Acording to your device info your on LPH and thats a BETA firmware.Your battery wont get any better until you are running the official release LPQ firmware which has increased quite a lot the battery life in my opinion.Flash the LPQ firmware and an LPQ based custom ROM.

[Q] drop down menu animation?

Hello everyone
Basically I was wondering if it is possible to add an animation to the drop down menu? I searched a bit for this and found a few guides but for different phone models so my other question is as long as its for android could I still follow those guides and get a result?
P.S I just about managed to work out how to root and then add a custom rom to my phone by following the instructions exactly so please don't be too techy
I have a Samsung Galaxy S 2 (GT-I9100)
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband version: I9100XXLPS
Kernel version: 3.0.15-I9100XXLPS-CL294511 [email protected] #3
Build number: Lite’ning ROM v2.7
I'm not exactly sure about animation but yes u can add some cool custom icons and logos by flashing a theme from the theme section in the forum.but let me tell u something all these things are battery hungry.so u should install them only if u don't care about ur battery much
