Not sure if its just me but I cant find the game launcher and its one of the features I would like to use. Can anyone shead some light on it please.
I have a UK Edge and it was definitely included on mine, it was the first thing I debloated.
If you want it (and if you are sure you don't have it), just flash the BTU file in ODIN. I did this to fix my camera constantly crashing.
Ok thanks I dont have a shortcut for it anywhere. Im prob just being blind lol
It is not an app....
Settings > Advanced Features > Games
Oh ok thanks
Game Service sucks. It over saturate any game and can be disabled with debloater
I did not fined it it found me I downloaded a game I like and it opened a post asking me if I wanted to use 'Game-Lancher'

Android Market just updated to 3.0.26. It includes a completely revamped new design (WP7?) and Book and Movie rentals. (Country Specific! Market Enabler might help)
Download the .apk here
You can download the .apk and install using a file manager. Might FC once if you try to open immediately after installing, but works fine after. Looks cool.
UNINSTALLING:
If you think it sucks, go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Find the Market and > Uninstall updates.
Screenies attached.
Did not know about that! Will try it later, I'm at work right now. :/ Thanked you!
Tried it!!! And its awesome!!!!
It looks purdy, but performance on mine is less than smooth.
I think it looks nice on hdpi devices. On this one it doesn't and it's slow. I like the old one better.
movies option is not there
something lyk videos but not movies
I am using this **** from last night and honestly speaking not working for me. hell slow. I am going back to traditional one.
Just finished watching a rented Halo movie using the new Market Place, got some new books too.
There's a lot more books in the AMP, than in the Sense "My Shelf" app. But the Sense app looks way better.
Oh Sense "Movie" app lets you purchase.

Problem with Updates on Android Market
i need your help !
i had a problem recently with my LG p-500 and master reseted it (factory data reset). After reboot everything was as first time used, no apps , nothing ,just stock apps.
I started downloading the apps i currently use and i was surprised to see that the apps installed from android market did nothing.
No updates available at all. I used to have Google maps 5.7 and now only 5.2 and no possibilitty to update to 5.7, and other apps too.
can i fix this ?
i cleared the data, cache and uninstalled market updates and still nothing.
please advice what to do !

I am a total newbie, so please bear with me. I had never heard of rooting a phone until I got the Galaxy S4 i337. I saw that the Golden Eye was good for starters, so that is what I put on my phone. I followed directions to the letter and it worked perfectly!!! So thanks for that. Anyway, now that I have it rooted, I noticed a couple things that don't work. The screen mirroring is one of them. I have a friend with an unrooted S4 Active that can see me on the network (I was sitting right next to him) but when he tried to connect, it failed. He also could mirror his phone to the TV. When I pull up screen mirroring, it says that there are no devices to connect to. I didn't know if that was right with this rom, or maybe a setting I haven't found yet. I also have the active apps widget and Greenify to let me know what apps are running, but when I go into the ram manager and hit clear memory, it tells me anywhere from 20-35 apps were killed, and this is when I am not even using the phone. I can do it again 10 minutes later and it says it still killed a bunch of apps. I thought rooting my phone was supposed to help with that, no? And if not, what would you recommend for an app to help. Maybe a different rom would be better? My concern has been with the battery not lasting very long. Thanks!!!

Goldeneye is a very good rom for beginners & vets alike. I would recommend it to anyone as far as that goes. But to answer your question you would need to install the addons called Samsung crap pack in the addon section in op. He took out those apk's because a lot of people prefer not to have all those features for whatever reasons so he just added a flashable zip in the addons for those that do.
Now as far as apps running in the background you would need apps like greenify or titanium backup to freeze those apps that u don't want running in background. Or if there are apps that you simply don't even want you can just delete them with tb or app called Nobloat in play store. Just an FYI, I would freeze them first for a little while to make sure they don't interfere or cause issues with rom. Also can do the same with the CP zip after install use nobloat to delete extra Samsung apks you don't want or use.
Hope this helps you out man & Great choice for a rom btw, you will be pleased with it :thumbup:

Thanks!!! I didn't know the screen mirroring was a Samsung app since it was still on my phone.
I have Greenify, but it only allows me to hibernate a few apps. I have done that to all of the ones allowed and still get 20-30 apps killed when I hit the clear memory on the other app. I will try the other one you mentioned and see if that works better. Again, thanks!!!! I have been enjoying the Golden Eye so far!

GoldenEye is a GREAT ROM, and yes you need the Samsung Crappack addons for some features to work. I also recommend Titanium Backup Pro; its worth the dough. Below is a full list of services you can safely freeze (originally from UCUAMDL AT&T firmware, but many services are still in Goldeneye), anything Samsung is in the Crappack. Just freeze whatever you dont use.
Great choice again.

I recently bought a Galaxy S4 I9505 to replace my S3 that is near destroyed.
So everything goes well until much recently when I updated it to the latest firmware i can get 4.4.2 I9505XXUGNJ5
The Messaging app crashes when I open the settings to edit some stuff.
It did not happen with the previous firmware and I dont know why.
I tried a couple solutions like clear data and cahce but no results.
Anyone please kindly help me by giving some solutions.
Better yet you guys can give me the apk file for the stock messaging app from the system dump that does not crash when opening the settings.
Thanks.
Or you can use a different messaging app.
I use hello at the moment. It's very simple and clean. Not much customization.
Or, another favorite of mine, YAATA. It's currently still in beta. But it works with no problems and has lots of customization. Also offers chatheads options (like facebook messenger)
I really don't like the new play store design. First off, I can't see everything from left to right because I guess my phone screen isn't wide enough or maybe the custom dpi i'm using is throwing it off. I know I could turn the phone on it's side and that would solve this problem, but I prefer to keep it vertical. Secondly, I hate having to swipe left and right to scroll through the apps available in each category. I guess I just prefer to old school up and down method. I have tried reverting to version 5.10 with the old school design, but the play store keeps auto updating me to version 6.
Is there any way I can keep this from happening so I can stick with one of the 5.0 versions of the market? I searched around the net and saw a few suggestions, but most of those were a few years old and must not work on lollipop. Is there an updated way to do it? And yes I am rooted if that means anything using either Bliss or Tesla ROM.
Thanks....
Same. Totally sucks. Unfortunately I think we're stuck with it being that it can't function without the auto update. I could be wrong and hope I am because the new UI is a pile of crap.

I don't know what team black out is. If it's a theme then the theme would carry over to a new play store update. All of my themes carry over. It could be a hacked version of the play store you are using which might explain why it doesn't auto update.
EDIT: I found a thread here on XDA that talked about modding the playstore apk by signing it with a different key and that would prevent google from updating it. Problem is, 'm not sure what that means. I'm comfortable with making changes to system apps because I used to do that all the time in the past to theme apps before the theme engines came along, but I have never signed an app with a different key so I don't know what that means. Going to have to do some searches to see if I can figure out how to do it.

Try it, download the updater search for your android version and its flashable. i did it over the existin playstore but mine didnt update i did it before update i just reflashed my rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283828
So i've been reading for a bit and apparently there was an update that added an app drawer to Leeco phones (someone correct me if i'm wrong) but i can't find the system update option on my phone at all and i've looked everywhere.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
EDIT: Did some additional searching and it seems i have a shop rom (i have google apps and no system update option and zero chinese bloatware).
So for anyone that comes across this thread, you can't update unless you go through update.zip.
That's bad. I just got this phone and I was suprised that I don't have the bloatware launcher, but Google Now. Also I can't find any system updater in options. Seems like I have the same thing, which is both a plus and minus. And do you have a problem with custom launchers? Google Now is a poop and when I installed Lawnchair, I couldn't remove the last app I opened from the multitasking. Specifically it appeared in one "window" with the launcher so I couldn't "kick it out". I got back to Google Now, but I hate it. Do you have the same problem?
(Lol, such a long post)
Haven't actually tried a different launcher, i hear Nova is good though, it might be worth it to try.

Sorry for such a late reply. Finally moved to a custom launcher (Microsoft Launcher) and it has the same issue with the last app staying open. So i make sure to always keep the dialer/contacts app open as it seems like the least performance/battery heavy app to keep running. Annoying, but way way better than the launcher the phone came with that didn't even have an app drawer.
