You mean like this? Its GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk. flash it to /system/app/, fix its permissions, and reboot.

Also, I'm still working on my homescreen. Trying out some of the advanced features of the Minimalistic Text widget.

I installed Steel Droid 5.1 earlier today and it has been absolutely stunning. Much better than the other ICS ROMs I've tried. However, I'm having a small issue with the camera. Whenever I open the stock camera, I see this:

I downloaded an alternative camera app (FX Camera) to see if it was just a glitch with the stock camera app, and when I went to take a picture, the orientation was messed up:

I've also noticed that in a few apps, such as Dropbox and a widget maker called Minimalistic Text, the app will open in landscape view rather than portrait view, despite my holding the phone perpendicularly to the ground. Is there a way to fix this, specifically the camera issue, or am I stuck?

Yes, I did a clean install. Was going to try to uninstall and reinstall the .apk, but wasn't able to uninstall it.

I used Safestrap to install it. Downloaded the .zip, put it on my external SD card, and went into Safestrap to install it through there.

redownload the zip file please, then go into recovery, wipe data, and davlik, then install rom , then wipe data and davlik and boot up you should be fine, i just installed it on mines and im running fine...if you run into the same problem again i would advise flashin back to sbf and starting over that is my opinion.

I have a new build about to be put up. Its v5.2, and carries a fair amount of changes from AOKP, as well as some of my own. Two versions will probably be up. One like normal, and another that has about 15MB of (currently) useless libraries (from /system/lib) removed to save space (for those that care about that stuff).

Very good question does this support GSM?

 

[wildride89]

I think in the previous thread Chevy said it doesn't support gsm.

Any changes as far as ffc stability or bluetooth?
