I edited the Evolution_Font install zip so that it doesn't remove the odex files. I just installed this using Clockwork and it's working fine for me. I recommend making a nandroid before doing this though just in case and as always if you brick your phone don't blame me.
The original font pack came from the Evolution theme, I don't take any credit for this and if whoever did create it wants it taken down I have no problem doing so.

edit: Added the Default font if you want to switch back.
I flashed it but now for some reason I cant load my downloads in the market, prob unrelated but other than that fonts work just fine.
Ok after a reboot it works just fine now, wonder what that was?
The font is a lot smaller than the stock, but I like it. Like it gives it a cleaner look or something.
after running quadrant with that loaded, I am convinced it did something else, the screen just looks more crisp.

itd entirely possible there is some sort of server maintenance or something... when i installed app brain a month ago there just happened to be server issues that night.. i assumed it was the new software.. logical right?
im running some backup/restore tests now... takes a while...
I couldn't get anything to authorize or download from market... used nandroid backup and worked fine after...

not completely related, but i figured since the OP knows of the themes the fonts originate from, would i be able to just install the Launcher pro that is themes in the bugless evolution rom? i basically want the widgets...
edit: so i decided to just make a nandroid and then see what happens.
worked just fine! the widgets and the font go nicely together!
Thanks now if we could get a flipfont apk port that would be great.
Love the font, but I too am getting a market error. Trying to install other apps and it FC's and then the apps are stuck "installing" can't cancel them out.
Flipped to wifi, same issue. Gonna shut it down, pop the battery and see if that does the trick.
EDIT: Yup, market still continues to crash even after a couple reboots and a battery pull. Why would this cause the install/market to crash?
which market apk are you using? the original one or the 2.2 version?
mine is working fine (i use the 2.2 market)
Using the updated version. As far as I recall.

no, i'm running it on the stock rom with root and voodoo
My setup Voodoo/oc'd kernel/aosp boot animations/deodexed Market 2.2 and have NO issues with this font whatsoever.
You did flash it through CWM correct?
I uninstalled the market update, went back in and downloaded the apps that were hung on install (as they were still showing "installing..." on the market page, even after a CWM restore) and it worked.
I can live without the new market until 2.2

Mine wasn't working either... it was installed as soon as I logged into my google account and all my apps from my SGS2 were funneled onto the TPrime. It kept crashing out as soon as launched.
I ended up just searching the market for it and re-installing it seemed to do the trick. The menus are choppy as hell but it works.

In the tablet settings enable something like "force hardware acceleration." I think it is in the developer section. If you can't find it, I can look at it latter and give a better explanation. That should speed up the scrolling.

Try a service like Entropay. Create a credit card with a US address and use it for Netflix.
they want scan of my ID, passport and driving licence got email immediately after registering there.
ive ran out of ideas, guess i will give up on it but thanks for help

edit: IT WORKS ) ive registered with my real slovakian address and credit card, they asked me to send them ids, so i did. After about an hour my virtual card was OK. And it was accepted by netflix without problem... what an awesome stuff youve got there in US im impressed. (btw hulu doesnt work)
thanks for highjacking my thread....guess i'll never get my netflix working...woe is me
If you are rooted and own titanium backup you could try freezing the app and installing the one from the market which should install as a data app instead of a system app.
Have you tried clearing the data/cache in the app setting by going settings>apps and scrolling to netfix? I can't recall the exact location since I am at work.
Does it give the same status even if you don't have any updates installed?
ive tried many netflix apps, but this one works for sure. try it, maybe it will work for you too. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20911810/Netflix_1.6.0.apk
When i try to install the above apk, i get an error message that says an existing app with a conflicting signature exists...which makes sense asi am unable to uninstall the original netflix. Seriously im having a hard time believing im the only one experiencing ts problem?
OP are you rooted? Uninstall the netflix update, then try deleting the Netflix.apk from /system/app with root explorer, reboot, reinstall netflix from the market.
have you done a factory data reset since you upgraded to ICS? I had a lot of quirky bugs right after I upgraded but thy all disappeared with a wipe. Asus really should have included that as part of the upgrade.
anyways, google can backup your apps if you let it, so all you have to do is re-define your settings. I was done and ready to go within an hour of my wipe.
hopefully you dont have to do that but that will probly fix it. good luck!
Agree, a factory reset can fix all kinds of software issues and with Google App Backup it is easier than ever to recover.

Has anyone seen on the market app, when you go to My Apps, a sidescroll page available to see all apps you've downloaded, even the free ones? Normally after a wipe, I get a few of the apps back from My Apps, but have to remember most of the ones I really need.
On Saturday, I was away from home, and was considering doing a wipe to update to Cleanrom 4.1, but wasn't sure I wanted to mess with redownloading apps. I went to the Market(Play Store), clicked on My apps, and got a 2 page option to see every app I have ever downloded, in a list on the second page. It was like the first page had all of the normal stuff that comes back, and a swipe to the left, came up with a list of everything.
I figured it was new, and was happy to think I could have list, and make setting up my phone after a wipe super easy.
I did the wipe, and now can't get it back. Was I dreaming? Or has anyone else seen this?
I just manually downloaded it and installed. It's on DroidLife somewhere...
Here it is: http://www.droid-life.com/2012/03/16/download-new-google-play-store-build-3-5-15/

Hi all
Create a cwm back up of your phone before trying this.
Found a app that actually hides root so that you can use google movie rentals/ skygo restrictions and any app that checks that you are rooted.
It temporary unroots the phone and can restore su after you finish film etc...
Make sure to Backup Root in the app.
This hasn't been tested yet on my wildfire as wife at work with it but will test soon as she home.
It does say works on some phones. If you want to test it before I do search google play for ''OTA RootKeeper'' Its the first app that actually does what it says for me well on my sg2.
Note if something goes wrong Su you can restore in app, failing that reflash a backup rom

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
i tried this when skygo 1st came to android and it doesnt work.i found an alternative (hideroot) but it disabled my root altogether and the enable root option never gave me my root back, even the dev of the app was baffled and eventually stopped replying to my needs to regain root.it did however allow me to have a nandroid for my skygo needs.
something i never tested but its been mentioned over in the skygo thread is the supersu app which allows you to hide root also i believe but i never got round to testing it.
Thanks will try it
Can you keep us posted with the results about SuperSU?
EDIT:
I have found this app is used on the Xperia range instead of standard SU app, any ideas why?

I have some of this posted in the Q&A but thought it deserved a thread here as I now have it working with Google Play Music on ICS. I have not been able to get the new YouTube application ported over to ICS yes but I'm still working on it.I could probably get this working on Gingerbread by changing the manifest again but I no longer have a GB device so if someone really wants it let me know.
What you need:
The modified NexusQ.apk file from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28636772&postcount=23
The new 4.3.605 Google Play Music apk which is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19423409&postcount=1
A Nexus Q and WiFi network.
A device running ICS. I used my Bionic running leaked ICS but I did have to root in order to install the new 605 Play Music application.
Instructions:
Install the new (4.3.605) Google Play Music application from Steve0007's posted linked above. If you get an "Existing package with same signature.." error you will need to do the following (this is what worked on my Bionic):
WARNING: ROOTING YOUR DEVICE AND CHANGING THE SYSTEM FILES CAN CAUSE BAD THINGS TO HAPPEN, PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Root your device (I used this method on my Bionic: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...gh-releases-ics-leak-root-exploit-bionic.html.) Install Root Explorer from the market and delete the existing com.google.android.play.music.xxx.xx.xxx apk from /system/app. Reboot device. Copy 605 apk to device and install.
END SCARY ROOT WARNING
Install the modified NexusQ.apk, plug in the Q, turn on Bluetooth on your device (it will prompt you to if you don't) and get connected! I had to go through the process several times before it successfully paired up but from what I've read the same is true on JB devices as well. If you need to wipe out the Q you do so by unplugging it, plugging it back in and as soon as the blue ring starts place your palm over the single LED on the top until the ring goes from flashing red to swirling purple. This will factory reset the device. Since getting both my Bionic and Xoom paired it's worked well.
Enjoy until the official ICS and below apps drop from Google.
If anyone is successful at getting the JB YouTube application working on ICS please let me know.
Thanks to everyone that helped me get this working!
Thanks a ton!!! I've added a link to this in my roll-up (here) in the general thread so others will find it. I'm now able to use my Nexus Q, thanks again!
Eventually I'll start learning to do some dev work :/
I followed your directions but I still cannot stream anything, I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. I was able to get the Nexus Q 8 Ball easter Egg to work.
What is your current status? Do you have the 4.3.605 music player installed? If so you should have the little "beam" icon on the top right when playing music and tapping that should make the Q almost instantly start streaming that song.

Did you read the part about needing to manually remove the old play music application via root explorer (or a simple uninstall if allowed)? Have you tried either?

Yes I read that but the old play music was not in the system\apps directory but it was still installed so not sure. I force stopped it and uninstalled it and reinstalled it and still would not let me install the one listed.
Hmmm, I think that's two of you with problems installing on CM9. I don't have anything running that ROM (and you can probably tell I'm already pretty much at the limits of my skills) but perhaps it is installed differently in that ROM. Unfortunately I don't think I can help you with this one.

Just though I should specify what rom I had success with. I copied the app to /system/app folder and changed the permissions. I did NOT have google music previously installed. When I ran the app to install it said install failed. I then installed the NexusQ app directly from my SD card, which installed no problems. I did not try to run the NexusQ app and rebooted the phone. Once rebooted i turned on my WIFI and bluetooth and launched the NexusQ app and rebooted the Nexus Q. The app paired up with the Q no problem. I was then able to run Google Music app and play to the Q with no issues. *NOTE* When i walked out of the house (i did not manually disconnect the wifi or bluetooth, just hit the stop play music button and turned off the TV and receiver) and came back later, turned the TV and receiver back on, the visualizations or music track would not show at all. Just the NexusQ home screen. I rebooted the Q and everything is working fine again.
No, youtube does not work (which I think is posted an original post somewheres). It seems that a ported app will be needed to push youtube videos to the Q. I cannot test Google movies/TV as I dont own any.
I've tried exactly this on my HTC One S running ICS (albeit with HTC Sense) and can't get it to stream to the Q.
Everything installs fine (if I move it to /system/apps and change the permissions as mentioned) but I see no option in the Play Music app to stream to the Q.
Additionally, the new Play Music app looks it has lost quite a bit of functionality to the previous version - perhaps indicating that the installation went badly? For instance, there are much fewer options on the settings page and there's no option to choose or configure my Google account anywhere.
bobukcat - is this the case for you?

No, my play music application has all the previous functionality and even more options in Settings, including Nexus Q settings. Did you install the Q application first? I don't know why this would matter but that is what I did.
Did you just move the new play music apk to the /system/app location or did you actually install it from application manager in Astro or other file manager? I don't know that just moving the apk to that folder will work (I don't think I even tried that) so you may have to delete the old one, reboot and then install the new one from the apk. Please try that and let us know if it works.

Yeah, I've tried to rebuild the YouTube application from JB with a new manifest multiple times but I still can't get it to work right, I did finally get it to install but it just constantly FCs and never really runs. Clearly someone much more skilled than I (which wouldn't take much) at modifying apks would need to look into this or we just wait for the official app from Google to drop.
Strange that the volume control from your phone doesn't work, as long as I'm in the Play Music application it works fine on both my Bionic and Xoom.
As reported in the OP I too had lots of errors and force closes, etc. when trying to get this to run the first time but from what I've read that happens on JB devices too and in fact I had a few on my Xoom running TeamEOS nightlies.
