Genie widget

I love the genie widget but I can't get it to with on any of the vibrant 2.2 roms. Does anyone here have a working apk for 2.2 vibrant?? I've searched all over but all I can find is the same one I've been using since my g1.
Thanks

Thx. I'll check it out

How did you install it. At 1st I got cannot install so I used root explorer to put it in system apps. That let me install, but all I get is fc when I try to use it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I used Root exp. Try rebooting your phone and see if that works. What way did you try installing the first time before root exp?

Thanks for your help but I can't seem to get it to work. I usually install directly from the download file in astro. I then tried using root explorer.
Thanks for the help though

I was looking for this too.
Good job Demo

Is this the version of the program that brings up news stories in the program itself or does this version just display the headlines and opens the stories in the browser?

I posted a link to smoked glass geneiwidget in apps if interested. Looks better. It has about 70% transparency

The new NBA Jam is just about as good i got it on the PS3

[MOD] Tegra 2 Nvidia/PowerVr Plug-Ins

This method was tested on a Rooted Thunderbolt running stock rom. Original post was from myTouch 4G. I played Fruit Ninja HD and Plants vs Zombies HD without a problem. May not work on all games.
Install:
Go to the Market and download "[ROOT] ChainFire 3D". You can use the Free version, or just go ahead and chalk up the $4 for the paid version.
Download the Nividia Lib from HERE. Put on /sdcard/
Install CF3D Driver by clicking Install/upgrade/ uninstall CF3D driver.
Then Set the CF3D as the Driver. It will run a script and reboot.
Open Chainfire3D:
Install Plugin
(will search your /sdcard/ and show
Install Plugin
libGLEMU_NVIDIA.zip
Click the Nivida Plug-in. It will install it. When you see plug-in install complete. Press back button, and select
Default OpenGL Settings.
Click: Use plugin. Select Nvidia. Exit !
********Missing HD Apps in the Market?
Option 1: Buy the pro version of Chainfire 3D and use the fix market option in the app
Option 2: Edit build.prop. ****Solution thanks to Thunder Droid
Thunder Droid said:
Ok I'm running BAMF RC1..
Went into build prop and changed what is listed, rebooted, and now I can see the tegra games , in market, I searched for "tegra" ;-)......
Changes:
ro.product.model=Olympus
ro.product.brand=verizon_wwe
ro.product.name=Olympus
ro.product.device=Olympus
ro.product.board=mecha
Of course do this with root explorer, and save and exit then reboot, once your back up, go and clear market data, good luck!
***** Thanks Adrynalyne, for finding out we need to change to Olympus, just had to change a few more lines....*****

Sent from my X10x using XDA Premium App

If you want the newest YouTube app you have to be on 2.2+. I think there is a apk floating around but the last time I tried it I was getting FC issues when logging in. Maybe try searching the general section of Android games and apps to see if it has been fixed.
Good luck and let me know what you find.

Sure will give it a try but i think it doesn't have anything to do with 2.2 since stock rom has the updated version of the apk

YouTube 2.5.16 update

Hello P500 community
Well yesterday I updated my YouTube app to 2.5.16 thinking it was going to be a good update. I was wrong lol... There is a new like and dislike bar which looks nice but now there is no HQ for our devices. So I suggest that you don't update YouTube on 2.3 roms if you would like to have HQ. Just a tip :thumbup:
Edit: added YouTube 2.4.4 apk in case some of you guys updated and want HQ again :laugh:

by enabling this, you will only get HQ on data connectivity (i mean GPRS/EDGE/3G).
If you are using wifi connectivity, then this option wont help you.

Yeah. Kinda worthless. Hopefully people will complain on the market enough.

Thanks, I found a way to disable update notifications in Google Play by unchecking 'Notify me about updates to apps or games that I downloaded'. I used this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460861
Also, Jelly Bean allows you to control update notifications on a per app basis:

Well since it's working for me, it isn't a problem with the app.

No issues here so far! I9505 LTE latest firmware MF8

It's not an issue from the app, it's the camera. There are some post about it, but essencially the camera app crashes certain times and reboot the phone when you try to use it, take a photo, read a barcode, etc.
If you have unlocked the developer settings you can set "background process limit" to 4, that worked for me so far.
Best luck!
