Well I need to learn programming real fast so that I can deal with these bs Tech companies. Pisses me off every time. NYU here I Commeeeee....

I am hoping someone can patch the apk for MT4G like this guy did for SGS.

I tried his patched APK on my phone and the video option is there, but when I get into a video call (and I can pick front or rear cam) My camera doesn't display for me nor the person on the other end, and I cannot see the other persons video feed either.

i don't have anyone to try it with. The reason i'm interested in this app is my cousin is in the USMC and it'd be nice for me to see their baby when it's born. They'll both be stationed in Europe and i won't get to see the little guy till he is like 4.

I'm also running Virtuous Unity but I am having problems installing the APK. I keep getting an error "there is a problem parsing the package".
- Can someone post the APK that works? I'm thinking that my install issues are due to the extracting the rar file.

qik video chat/ffc possibly working on cm7

i read that qik video chat was working on the nexus s so i changed the build.prop to the following and the ffc was working when testing using the video mail portion of qik:
ro.product.model=Nexus S
previously when using video mail it would default to the back camera. i havent tried video chatting with anyone yet. Can anyone confirm if this change allows qik to be fully functional?
Works for my phones

OP updated with a method to root stock EH06.
I updated today and am generally pleased. It is fast, no lag, some improvements in appearance.
Sadly, the keyboard is still an issue. It misses letters like before.
The biggest miss is the "Logs" on the Talk screen. It remains unconsolidated, unlike a true Gingerbread device. My son's Nexus consolidates the Log to one entry per contact, then you click them to see the activity. With this, if you trade 20 texts with someone, you get 20 lines of the same person. It was utterly ridiculous in a beta version and to still have it in 2.3.x is just inexcusable.
Aside from that though, all is smooth. Used Odin to root with CWM, flashed SU, and life is better.
UPDATE: GPS will not lock. When it does and it loses it, it won't come back. Also, there is no "back" function on the stock browser. Hitting the previous screen key closes the browser.
I've tried this on windows xp and my epic got bricked i can get into download mode, but the only pc that recognizes my epic is the same that bricked it, really don't know what to do, i can't odin it to stock rom or any rom, i'm kinda desperate, can anyone help me please? thanks a lot!

Inverted mms for ICS

I was using version 9.2 of passion rom and had the inverted black mms with blue icons.
I tried reapplying the zip for v10 and it wont work...
So i tried pushing the apk file, and all the mms will do now is force close if i try to open it..
I guess v10 is causing some conflict v 9.2 doesnt, but i cannot stand the blinding white mms...
Ive always been curious... why is the stock messaging app always so basic and optionless? You would think that since anyone who has an android obviously texts that you would make the messaging app cool? Instead u have to download a third party messaging app from the market.. doesnt make sense to me as i would think they would be simple changes... any feedback?
Thanks to anyone who knows about this mms deal on v10!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
anyone have a solution?
I am using an inverted mms.apk but I'm not sure if its the same one you're talking about. Mine has grey icons and all I have to do is install the apk from the phone and it replaced the system app. I got it from the I9000 apps forum. Try searching there. Its just an .apk, not a .zip.

Whatever kid, we have a confirmation it works, I was testing out the three new modded versions of it last night and they all work. Just because you can't figure it out, doesn't mean its not working for everyone else.
And I am just supposed to assume to know what you have done?? That childish to think someone will just know what you have done and assume you have tried anything at all without you relating that information.
Did you ever think it could be that dirty ass neobuddy rom you are running? As this mms has confirmation of working on ICS on multiple devices, but errors out on one I have heard of, YOURS!
But you know what, have fun kid, if you can't take advice from a dev, and want to act like a ****, then thats your perrogative, but I am officially done with you ****ing kids.
I'm not an idiot, and it just force closes on my phone. It's not that hard to push a file.
Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. I had assumed it didn't work because lof the 4.0.3 / 4.0.2 difference but maybe it's something else.
I will try a fresh install of passion and see if that possible resolves the issue.
Thank you.
Here's what I did:
1] rename original Mms.apk to mms.apk.bak
2] move the inverted mms.apk to system/app
3] make sure permissions match
4] reboot
If that doesn't work then yeah install passion fresh. That's what I'm on now and those steps above is all that I do.

[MOD] HTC Amaze camera V8 for Sense 2.1 (synergy vision only) to 3.5

Warning it appears this does not work on sense 2.1 (other than the synergy vision sense 2.1 rom since I tested that personally), so flash on sense 2.1 at your own risk.
I have this running flawlessly on my synergy vision sense 2.1 rom.
All I modified was the media profiles.xml file to match those of the v8 to have full quality no compression photos using a diff type tool to spot the differences quickly. This however causes pictures to be almost twice the size (in my case I took two identical photos and one was 700k while the second was 1.2mb).
I cant tell much difference but I am sure less compression must mean better photos.
BTW be gentle, this is my first post and though I am an experienced programmer I am not a veteran in android.
Those who use it, post your findings as I am very interested if anyone notices any differences.
By the way thanks to adakaya1994 for the orignial v7 posted.
Also thanks to asim0 for asking for this update, I wasn't aware such an update existed.
ps. use at your own risk and please back up your device before flashing this zip.
YeH now camera force closes after flashing this. Great....
Thinly file you posted is bad. It's not the size listed.

Sorry I reuploaded the file, not sure why it was corrupt in the first place, I've tested it and its ok. Make sure you can open the zip when you download the file.
