+1, don't forget to reboot afterwards, it won't work without that.

Look In OP in this thread. Pick a camera link. Now once you've done so:
1) Download apk to sd card

3) Rename existing HTCCamera.apk to HTCCamera.bak
4) Rename the new camera to HTCCamera.apk
5) Long press on new HTCCamera.apk and click permissions

7) Reboot!
8) Head to settings/applications and clear data from camera (this will fix FFC FC)
As far as widgetsoid, I cannot help you. But there are Quick settings in the notifications bar. Save your phone some space, and delete Widgetsoid.

I got widgetsoid working and the camera I am using is the one that comes with the ROM I dowloaded another but turning off wide screen made it work but mirror is unable to notice it so my best course of action is switch camera's

I had the issue you have to go into settings and actually enable it. Crazy right?
I'm having an issue with Messages forcing close
as well as the phone being overall slow as hell. I'm going to uninstall some thigns to see if maybe that could be the case.. Put literally.. Preview 5, without the toolkit seemed to treat me a lil bit better.

I have not, but I will try now.

Original Post dude. Pay attention.

Proximity Sensor Does NOT work since latest OTA!!!

So the proximity sensor completely stopped working sibce I upgraded to Gingerbread. Well the little red light still comes on but when I put the phone to my face while in a call I expect the screen to automatically turn off but I forget that it no longer works so I end up pressing buttons while talking. If anyone else is experiencing the same issue, or if there are any known fixes someone PLEASE help. Other than that I still really like Gingerbread.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App

Sadly I don't have any help for you as I am limited in my knowledge...However, I used Kenn's 2.3.4 beta ROM a couple weeks ago or whatever, and I ALSO have noticed that the sensor doesn't seem to work properly. It works right most of the time for me (dunno about you), but there have been times where it screws up. Kind of lame, but I'm sure this is fixable if other people experience the same issue and someone is willing to fix.

Try fix permissions

I am also experiencing this same issue, worked before but not now. I have already fixed permissions...

Yes but since the phone has the sensor I'd rather not have to hit the power button every time I start a phone call. Then I have to hit the power button again to get to the dialer or other apps. Hence inconvenient.

I had same problem and found another solution online: remove battery.
I was shocked it was that simple, but I did it yesterday and the proximity sensor worked great all day today. Crossing my fingers that it will stay that way.

I pull my battery often, my sensor stopped working shortly after I flashed Gingerblur a few months back...hmmmm
Someone out there please tell me how to edit the info in the build.prop. I see where my proximity sensor is at and both sections are labeled as disabled. Need to know how to edit so I can get it working again!!

I use root explorer. open build prop. make it r/w at the top. Hold finger on screen to open menu. scroll down to open in text editor.
edit: my current settings are below. and my sensor does not turn of screen. I think mine stopped working on the 1.5.7 update. hasn't work since.

I figured out I could do this but also downloaded PropEditor which allows you to edit and .prop on your device.

Awesome! This should be placed on the 2.1 thread, the percent icon is butt-ugly.

Had to restore the precentage icon... after applying this, I lost the selection box for gallery etc... like when you click video or image from a file manager, android asks for what program to open it with (if you have not set default program)... this dialog seems to open in background... the screen darkens etc. But it will not bring the selection box in front.. also setting the wallpaper will not show the cropping screen...
After restore, all is OK

Also, maybe a stupid question/comment... this rom is deodexed, should this be done just by replacing images not the whole apk... or have I misunderstood the deodexing?

I'll have te dig into this as I get to my Xoom. I'm not sure about the deodexing... I tough that as the apks are like zip -files and they contain all the resources needed, like images, that the system apks would have been "unpacked" to the system thus making theming easy... but with quick reading on my phone while walking the dog, it seems that deodexing is more complicated...

Yes I also tried this, I did it from a diffent link but the launcher actually runs off the Google search app so it should be the same experience and its great, only thing I don't like is the fact that when I hold down apps to move them on the home screen when in landscape the tablet flips orientation and it is annoying. Everything works in portrait though.

I have a solution for that ,
When you open app in landscape mode , touch the navigation buttons button then pull down the notification bar and lock the auto rotation, it should be stop rotating.

New to all of this custom rom and rooting stuff so please excuse me if some of my questions aren't good.
Do I need to root and use a rom slot to run this or can I just use it as a launcher and still get widgets/wallpapers to work?

This is because HDX has a "reverse orientation" compared to most tablets. So what happened is the app rotate to what was "normal" landscape, then autorotate 180 to proper landscape.
There's a patched launcher that implements the reverse orientation that's a part of the HDX Gapps V2 (forgot which topic) but I have a feeling that this may need to be an Xposed module that "patch" the launcher itself.
