What do you mean I should be addressing this problem on the Bamboozled forums...or they have already talked about this on the other site?

I was going to wait for a theme or 2 to come out and for the CRT and overscroll glows but I might as well since I'm hearing so many good things about it

Wow that worked like a charm...smooth as ever with no reloading...much appreciated!

Does this only apply to that particular ROM? Also, does making it a system app in Titanium do the same thing?
Thanks,

I don't think so...I've experienced it on a smaller less frequent scale even running EG22...I think it has somthing to do with less RAM being available in Gingerbread...and I also have a lot of apps (100+) installed...could that be apart of the problem?
Sent from my rooted, suited, & booted Epic 4G kno dat!

In Launcher pro I select to keep in memory on the preferences and it works fine not reloading. without it would reload as you describe quite often.

I think we can cross that source off the checklist because I'm still having the issue even though more sparingly on EG22....Bamboozle is a great ROM.

Anyone running fully loaded syndicate care to test

I'm searching for syndicate rom version 1.0.2 or 1.1.0 fully loaded users to do some touchwiz theme testing. In house acs testing is being done but I want to try more phones to get a wider range of results. what I needed is just for you to flash a theme and see if it all works fine. If not we need to do a little but of troubleshooting so a solid nandroid is a must but it could all work the first go round. Post in the thread if theres anyone interested and for more details.

Here you go https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/Giger2.0tw.zip?w=59c06432
This is the new Giger theme for touchwiz flash this and see for me. The problem on sr101 was that the dialer tab activity, contacts, and phone.apk would completely remove the phone icon from the phone when themed. Even when I themed directly from the apps in the rom. I'm hoping this issue is resolved in the sr110 but if it hasn't I want to figure it out so those on fully loaded can enjoy full themes as well.

Thank you the last rom tested was 1.0.1 but I'm hoping both 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 don't have the issue theres just less touchwiz users that mod than the rest of us so a wide range of testing just don't happen

Oh yeah. I slacked on the icons cause I replaced all of them with the adw launcher but since this is touchwiz I'll open the system apps and fix that. Once again thank you

you are correct sir most old styles will auto update to 3.1.5 unless you have the updater frozen then it will try to push the update thru systemupdates.apk(if u freeze it your old stuff will work FYI), & it gets confused bc the old style dont like that...

Definately stupid...smh, changed it back to stock and got everything to work...and even updated some apps I didn't even know were outdated...lol, also the movie tab came back in the market which dissapeared...I just thought the market knew the phone was rooted which is why it wasn there...so canging it back did actually more than I expected...thanks mane!
Here's how to get the old market back permanently.
Settings / applications / manage applications /market / remove updates
After doing this use MyBackup or Titanium to freeze the upater
Or just delete it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Deleting the market updater seems to cause problems but the biggest problem I have with any 2.x market is that after a while it starts saying object not found. I hate being forced to use something ugly
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I've never had any problems with it being deleted...except it says no connection but I had that even before deleting it. Once I hit refresh it comes back.
i also freeze the market.updater (right one?!) with TB, but after every reboot the new market comes again....

1. Get a different launcher, google nova launcher I think it has that ability.
2. You need to be in a clear place with plenty of light for facelock to configure and needs to be there for a good amount of time.
3. Go into the market go into settings and uncheck auto add widgets.

Thank you so much, but I already tested Nova Launcher, and I still cant edit my apps in the drawer.
It also helps to read the CM9 threads like the Tip Sharing thread in General if you don't want to wade through all the posts in the Development thread. The market tip was one of the first ones posted.
