Beautiful widgets issue

When I try to download skins it sticks at loading for ever anyone else getting same problem or is it just me?
I get that too
On mine the list loaded up in 2 secs. Do you have the latest version installed? Did you try clearing out /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/cache?
Tired that it didn't work...
No issues here, seems a lot faster than in the past honestly.
Have you uninstalled/installed it again? Latest version?
yes latest version and already tried installing and uninstalling...

[Q] Getting angry birds to work on Froyo FRX06

I was wondering how to make angry birds work on the android froyo FRX06 on TP2, as in I couldn't install it from the marketplace, is there any other way?
There is a version in a tiad thread I think on ppcgeeks that worked pk on our phones. It was modded somehow. Search over there and you should be able to find it. I have not tested it on the current builds however.

It wasn't modded, it was just the 'Lite' version.
If you find a 'Lite' version of the APK, use it.
I still don't understand the fascination with this game... I played the 'Rio' version, it's really quite boring...
I downloaded the standard version from the marketplace and it worked fine? :|
Really? The standard version worked fine? What version of Android/kernel are you running?

It's just a fun time killer I guess, for when I have to wait in an elevator or something and have nothing productive to do... I have a friend who has 3 stars on almost every level... how he isn't bored, I will never know.

No kidding! I might go back to testing FRX if it means being able to smoothly flick birds around.

Perhaps your definition of 'worked fine' and everyone elses is different - was it laggy? Did you see a severe drop in FPS? AFAIK this is due to the original version being openGLES2.0, which our devices do not support...

Eh, I prefer games like Labyrinth... But I only play it like once a month. Not a big gamer on the phone, that's what my PS3 is for . (I do realize you can't exactly play a PS3 in an elevator, but hey.)
I only tried to launch angry birds (rio I think?) once, never actually got around to playing it. Lotsalag on some pre-play cutscenes so I moved on.

Has ben heck not gotten around to that one yet?
I'm picturing a ghostbuster's style backpack and either a helmet with a visor screen or, for the extreme sports types, a mount for a 40" LCD (for splitscreen multi, of course) suspended forward.

Working fine, as in it was playable, the cut-scenes were slow but that didn't bother me. Apart from that it was okay.
Certainly wasn't a "30fps" experience, but good enough for me.
I was under the impression our devices did support OGLES2.0? No driver support (yet)?

The GPU was designed back when GLES 1.0 was new. It handles GLES 1.1 with an update, that's as much as it can do in hardware.

Indeed as highlandsun states - we do not have the hardware support for 2.0.
Ahh bummer. Oh well, the compromise we make with older hardware. I'm not yet ready to upgrade, and I enjoy the tinkering side of things anyway!

google now

so i've been trying to get google now on ICS, and there's a TON of mods out there that supposedly work for ICS...ive flashed a couple and they don't seem to be working, so i've been reverting back to regular google search...
if anyone else attempts this and gets it working, or knows of a mod that would work on our phone, i would appreciate it
for now I will keep looking into the thousands of pages of xda threads about this lol
well I guess no one else cares or thinks google now is cool but if anyone wants it I flashed this zip and it seems to work just fine
http://www.mediafire.com/?hsos53699wq2ttm
I got it from this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
everything seems to be working perfectly for me, except I don't think it's the latest version of google now

Google Now is probably one of the singular reasons I want Jellybean. I loved it when I tried it on a ROM on my original Incredible. I'll be trying that out soon.

Yea I agree I loved it on my nexus. This is a little laggy but hopefully since we can root now we can get aosp going
Can someone try to set up the sports card I tried but with no success
Same here, I will flash and let you know how it goes, I'm running viper with the older boot_image by the way in case it matters.
Edit: I'll try setting up the sports card too.

No problem. So I just flashed it and its working fine so far, I've never used it before so I'm still playing around with it but what problems were you having with the sports cards? Oh and good find somerandomname1 I've been trying to find one that works!

When you go into setting to set up the cards and click sports it shows edit team but its greyed out and not able to be clicked on
yea sorry, like I said, this isn't the newest version...apparently all the developers stopped developing this for ICS, and you need to newest version to edit the teams I think
My teams are there though since I use this on my Nexus 7 and it's all synced to my google account lol

After i found this, I kind of gave up looking for an updated version, but there may be one out there...I may look into it more later
but right now im trying to find a way to make my phone wake up when hitting the volume keys

I'm on venom right now and it has the option of waking with the volume keys
bah...I've actually never flashed a rom before on any phone. I usually like stock for the most part...there's just usually a few things I want to tweak with mods or apps
the 3-button re-map mod alone has made this phone so much better lol
but it seems I can't find a way to wake w/ volume on this

Github Repo - Can't get it to build to save my life

I don't know if I am stupid, tired, affected by disease or what but I cannot get this to build.
https://github.com/Trolldemorted/Signal-Android/tree/multidevice2
If someone could just build it for me it would be grade. Been in Android Studio for the past 4 hours making some but basically no progress.

Why not just download it from the play store? Looks as though the latest build was only 2 weeks ago.

This is an unofficial build that supports multiple devices at once. Official build signs you out as soon as another device is registered.

MiUi 11 based on Android 9

I was excited about MiUi 11 .
But i am totally disappointed by the look of it..
It brings literally worthless features ..
I was looking forward to Global Darkmode but ...
No it's comes with android 10 only and we are getting android 9 ..for what !! and why ..
it's totally disappointing to update and MiUi but not android version in a a MI series model..
Dont worry, Android 10 will come soon.
Only force dark apps it's missing, literally just that, for me it's more disappointing that an Android update just bring that.

Wow that's bad. Did you try to hard reset? Should fix this. Still no update here on Global ROM..
Guys it's a good update. Yes it is hardly to get to use to some new features and updates but I can confirm the battery lasts longer with this update, some of the services removed or replaced to reduce power drain like "Start in background" permission I don't see it anymore... in MIUI 10 it was set by default. Ambient display with the new AOD feature is also nice.
On MIUI the way to go is use the BETA ROMS, i'm very satisfied with the latest.
MIUI 11, Android Q, stable, best BB so far
Does it have lockscreen quick reply?

I suppose i can.
Brightness Automatic is off, Level is slight above 55%, so it's always this level.
The Phone is on for 2 Days and 4 Hours.
Battery Level is at 53% and i had so far 4 hours and 40 mins of SoT.

Why nobody talks about Google maps issue? If you're in Europe and you have a Chinese rom you'll not have the Google maps time-line on.. It's a big bug that can't be solved because it's a beta rom

Idk about other's but I, don't talk about it cause i'm in South America and use HereWeGo
In fact, i debloat any Android i own (MIUI or not) to only have the Play Store and Play Services from google. Not even chrome or gmail i use.
Yeah that was kinda disappointing. But then Xiaomi never put the Android version front and center but MIUI. Always. Major Android update is like point 7 on the changelog for a random update.
