how do i install that? i dont have the market and i dont have the premium version of rom manager so i hope i dont need those

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...d-7-for-samsung-galaxy-s-phones-experimental/
Faq lists two ways to install gapps. If the rom manager way isn't working for you, try the other.

flash the zip called gapps-gb-xxx located in mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/goo-inside.me/gapps. flash it with recovery not rom manager.

Look for an external link--one sec, adding it for you.

Cant Book into Clockwork

I downloaded and installed the nero beta 3 and now I am trying to install nero v1 from rom manager. When I click to make a backup it restarts but puts me in the android boot loader. I do not have an option for backing up. I flashed clockwork twice but still no success.
Did u click reinstall packages or something

That is an option in the android boot loader but I did not click that.
I believe its the Rom manager that'd having problems. I reverted back to prior update of rom manager, and it worked. Dont update the latest one in the market. If u have auto, uncheck that, so it wouldn't update your rom manager.

To get into the clockwork after u flash it click reinstall packages and it should reboot and go back to stock mode and click reinstall again and it should come with green text and its clockwork.
If that doesn't work try another idea.

[Q] Latest GPS FIX

Can some one please tell me witch gps fix is the latest one and witch one in your opinion actually works. I see that a popular fix is the Dj05 radio fix and there is even a hardware fix out for the vibriant that bends the gps antenna contact. So witch one should I try first? witch actually works and witch are known not to work?
I searched and came up with a lot of different threads and I think we should consolidate all those threads and list all the fixes and make a poll asking witch fix worked better for the users. This is a very common problem and I am surprised there are no stickies threads been update regularly with the latest info. The biggest problem is that there are MANY threads about it and some are very old, not sure if there are better fixes now.
So please help me list and consolidate all those threads, I will update this post showing all your input. I also have 3 fascinates that all are a little different when it comes to gps and would love to try the fixes and post my results on all three.
Edit: I would also like to write the proper way to test your gps, I see some threads have this buried in between the gps fix steps and I would like to make it more obvious so if you know how to properly test the gps, let me know. I know there are some apps like gps test and status that show you lots of info, would be great to see a list results with a working gps and a faulty one.
thanks.
Dj05 solved my GPS woes.. insta-lock now..

When I was running stock, and rooted dI01 I laterally could not acquire a signal. I tried leaving it on, outside in the open, for over an hour, and nothing.
Going to dj05 I can lock within 10 seconds or less.
I am so impressed with the difference.

I tried following the guide on this link, successfully installed the radio via odin, tried installing the rom and kernel through clockwork but I do not have an option to choose zip file from sd card. the only option i get is to apply sdcard: update.zip. I changed the name of the rom zip file to update.zip and tried to flash it but it told me it failed to verify whole-file signature. What should I do now?
the guide does not explain much so I need some help.
Did you flash clockworkmod recovery through odin, then flash clockwork from rom manager? If so you should have an update.zip on your sd card that when applied takes you to clockwork then you can choose which zip to flash from there...

I do not think I flashed clockwork with odin, what I did is installed the dj05 Radio with odin by checking pda and finding the file, then pressing start. after that, the phone rebooted and I installed rom manager. Once in rom manager I installed the latest clockworkmod recovery 2.5.1.0. I do not have an update.zip file there on the root of my sdcard. what did I do wrong? How do I fix it? THanks
in about phone I can see that baseband version is s:i500 V.DJ05
The fascinate is different from other phones you need to flash clockwork through odin then in rom manager here is a link on how to flash through odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099
Flash that, then delete any update.zips on your sd card, then in rom manager flash clockwork and it will download an update.zip that when applied from stock recovery will take you into clockwork... Once all that is done if you already have the modem installed boot into clockwork and select install zip and find the DJ05 rom you downloaded, flash that and you should be all set...

yes flashed both in order that they are listed.

I rebooted and it does the same, no splash screen. I waited a few seconds to make sure it booted all the way and the screen turn on by it self. seems like somehow I messed up the splash screen. I am going to try and go back to stock then try this again. I tested the gps on all 3 of my phones. white one is still doing the best, OG one (stock) is still doing same as before and the new one with dj05 is using more sats that the OG(6/8), but the OG has more sats in view (5/9). Is that weird?
That djo5 kernel from thread does not support boot animations. It's normal for that kernel.
good day.

Want multitouch keyboard

I have the liberty rom and I want the multitouch keyboard but when I install it says install unsuccessful

Ok now im having problems with themes from the toolbocks. I click on the theme I want and it says downloading and installing then looks like its rebooting then its looks like its installing it but then it says aborted. I then need to select the reboot phone to get back
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
It will reboot the phone and go in to recovery mode and install the theme on it's own. If the installation aborted that means the download didn't finish right.
Once your phone is booted up go in to the file manager and in the liberty folder there is a downloads folder, click on it and you will see the different themes that you downloaded. The ones that don't work but are listed there need to be deleted so you can redownload and attempt the install again.
I wanted to add, you are much better off downloading the themes while connected to wi-fi then 3g.
It worked thank you. I think I just didn't let it download all the way

Glad to hear you got it working. I had the same problem the first time I tried switching themes and realized what it was and what needed done.

[Q] Can't flash v1.5 themes from Liberty toolbox

I can't seem to figure out why the themes won't flash from the Liberty toolbox. I'm running v1.5. The themes will download, they just won't flash. I have tried literally everything - I've re-flashed the ROM, didn't work. I wiped data/cache then re-flashed the ROM, didn't work. I uninstalled the toolbox and then downloaded the new version of it (1.1.2), didn't work. I tried downloading the themes from the internet instead of the toolbox, still didn't work. Anyone have any idea on what to do?
Make sure your bootstrap is working. After it downloads it usually reboots into recover to load it.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
It reboots into recovery every time. I then try and manually flash it and it doesn't work.
ive had this same exact problem
I have had the same problem. I notice when I click on a theme to install it, it doesn't download, it just reboots without realizing it wasn't downloaded. Hence no download, no install. I do not have a connection problem and I have plenty of signal. I'm guessing perhaps there is a problem with download location.

I have had a similar issue. I found that once my ROM manager was updated, I had to reflash clockwork mod from within the ROM manager. Once I did that, I was able to install a theme with liberty toolbox.

I had this exact issue and I did this but now it just downloads an empty zip file with the themes name
I'm having the same issues this morning, my guess is that they have removed the files in preparation for a new Liberty release.

Goo manager not showing

I have liquid android on my phone and have been liking it. I keep getting alerted about an update for the rom I have which means i have goo manager on my phone however i have no icon anywhere so I'm not sure how to remedy this. Also when there is an update ready do i have to flash and wipe my whole phone again or does the update just fix any tweaks?
thanks,
Mike

I would try to reinstall Goomanager. Are you using a stock launcher?
I can't reinstall it because it thinks I already have it installed and the custom ROM has nova launcher on it
Maybe you have hidden the app in app drawer? Just click on the notification see what happens. Even if you dont install the rom you will get notified again that an update is available.
I am able to enter the app for the update but I can't do anything else. If I try to update the app will it wipe my phone?
