My Galaxy woes!!

I recently bought Galaxy S from UAE..It does not have android market..Whenever i hav tried to install it, it force closes. If by chance it does install, if force closes whenever i click on anyone of the applications for downloading...
Needless to say i hav tried EVERY damn trick in the book to get android market working properly on my mobile. PLS HELPPPPP!!!
Also i wud b grateful if any1 can post the apk file for particle storm live wallpaper, as i cnt access the market.
Thanks!

Why dont you just flash a custom ROM. It will give you Market pre-installed. I recomend DOC's ROM. Fast & reliable.

you can also root your phone and put clockworkmod on it.
and than you can flash market on your phone.
regards richard

Thnks for the quick reply guys...but here z the problem..I have no idea what u guys r talkin abt..When it comes to android I am a two year old..Pls explain to me how to flash a custom rom and what is DOC's rom?? is it an application? where can i get it from?

First of all..forget everything we said. GO to the the Q&A section and read everythng.its all detailed..Only after sound knowledge should you modify your phone..else you might regret a silly mistake and get panicked. take your time to understand the term rooting, flashing ROMs, what are ROM..etc.

Maybe you could just root your device maybe with super one click, and the install market enabler to change for example to US sim if it still happens?

You've been banned from the market.
Just kidding. Try factory testing your phone.
Our you could install a custom ROM, as has been suggested.

It's been 10 days and you still haven't got market working?

or just do this dude...
Check your IMEI number by dialing *#06# then
dial *#272*IMEI# and then select XSG... this will hard reset your phone so do a backup in recovery mode (shot down your phone completely then press up volume + menu + (last) power button then release when you see the Samsung logo)...
Hope this helps...

[Q] How to root my Arc S & what's the best rom out there ?

Hi,
-I want to root my device, so what's the safest way to root it ?
(explain the method here or give me links!)
-and what Rom do u prefer to use in my phone after rooting it ?
(custom rom or stock rom, but all features most work perfectly and the phone should work smooth)
I am running ICS 4.0.3 and My phone is Middle East version & it's important that the rom that I will put in my device fully support (Arabic language) like the original one does!
See attachment to know all the info of my phone

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
Follow this thread and download the zip file, read the on screen instructions and just run the .bat file and you'll have root..
And for the rom, try Arconium ICS or Mooded ICS.. They both support Arabic languages!

Thanks alot gire.prasad for your helpful reply
my phone now rooted successfully!
I am thinking in staying with the orginal stock software (the original SE ICS 4.0.3)
So now I just rooted the device, and I will try to free up the internal memory
note: I was facing some application hanging when I try to use them before rooting the device like :
-Phone
_Contacts
-Xperia Gallery
-Messaging
So will freeing up internal memory space solve this hanging problem ?
Thanks!

Glad you got root!
It wont.. The apps freezing is due to Stock ICS and freeing up internal memory simply doesn't help it.. Tweaking should help a bit or try different rom.. If you prefer stock rom, then try supercharging the rom using V6 SuperCharger script and using that script try to bulletproof those apps you mentioned! It'll help a lot and make the rom even more smoother and faster..
Need some help for doing it?

[APK][PORT] S Voice ported to all Samsung devices! [June 5][Initial release]

Hi there
As you know, S Voice from SGS III isn`t working on any other device because of checking device model. The bad solution is to mod your build.prop to make android think you are using SGS III, but it can cause incorrect work in some apps.
What I have Done
I have decompiled SVoice.apk, changed all checkings of device model to make app think it is SGS III, built and signed new apk.
So now all you have to do is:
1. Delete old S Voice
2. Revert your build.prop to stock, if you have modded it
3. Install new apk (as usual app) from Google Drive or Mediafire
Issues:
Few actions aren`t working because of the incompatibility with some SGS III features.
Shortly, some apps or actions are not opening because S Voice can`t find Samsung`s Clock/Calendar/etc. It can be fixed only if these apps are ported to our devices.
Tested on my AOKP Galaxy S I with SGS III Addon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1669190)
Please, test it on other devices and write me, if app doesn`t work

will all features be fixed in the future or is this a final app for us? anyway thanks for not messing the build.prop

will it install to internal SD?

Install as NORMAL apk, just launch it EDIT: it installs to internal SD
I can`t promise to fix everything, but i`ll try to fix some features

please upload on mediafire

Thank you for that...
I'm running 5.5 dark night and I installed the modified s-voice apk file you provided.
The application runs fine, however, I can't get some functionalities to work. For example, talkback don't work. Also, saying things like Hello, or tell me a joke doesn't work; only straight-forward commands...
Moreover, any hopes on getting the application working with double-tabbing?

Talkback: do you have tts installed? It`s working fine with me, check your ROM
Some features won`t work, read the thread
Chatting: I am having such problem sometimes, restarting S Voice helps.
Double-tabbing: I haven`t discovered this feature yet, if it is possible, it can be fixed in future

Xperia Play Games Launcher Trouble

Hi there , New to this site and i must say this is just one big book of knowledge about phones haha!
Anyways.. I installed last night the XDark ICS (Android 4.0.3) and realized that when i slide i my gamepad up that the launcher never came up so i went to the play store and found the installer so i downloaded it and every time it gets half way to being installed a error box pops up and says.. "Incompatible with other applications using the same shared user id" SO I THOUGHT OKAY AND THAT MEANS WHAT EXACTLY!?! so i searched around this forum and found people giving download link for apk files so i downloaded it put the apk on my sd card and tried installing that but this just gives me another error and says application not installed.
I do realise that this rom may not support the game launcher but there is no mention of it is the post and thought that someone out there could shed a little light on this matter.
I am not that botherd if i cannot get this running but i find it useful when i was running the normal stock software.
The link to this rom is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729250
If anyone could help it would be most apprrciated! :good:
Many Thnaks

I think the game launcher doesn't work on ics.
Sorry for my bad English. It's not my native language.

Ohh okay I never knew. A bit dissapointing but thanks. And no your English is perfect and very understandable

There is actually the Game Launcher from the leaked ICS builds that looks nice. I have it on my 2.3.3 Xplay and it works great. just look up ICS Xperia Game Launcher and you will find it.

Thankyou I will search this and let you know the results.

I have this problem now since the other day. I can seem to install not all the apps I want to install from Play Store. For example, I can install Titanium Backup but not Solid Explorer Beta. I can perfectly browse the internet through my phone though. Why is this?
Had tried clearing cache and data of Google Play Store and Google Services but still no avail. Tried inputting account details from the Play Store directly but still the same problem. I finally I had done a clean install of CM9b1 with no any extra tweaks nor mods added but sadly problem is still there.

LOL mate,chill..Too many questions there that i can't really answer it lol.Ok,I am creating my first custom rom here.And i just copy and paste in the system/app directory then i repacked the cm9 based rom and flashed to my phone to test it and the play store crash.What could be wrong here?

It cause by the google play have a strict policy on collecting info about every detail information regarding phone we use to make sure every app we download will 90% compatible with our phone. Every single phone already been registered on google play database
such as:
1. Phone model
2. Procesor
3. Ram
4. Kernel
5. Stock rom
So when we change rom, google play doesnt recognise our device anymore because on google play database our phone doesnt exist.
As example:
Goggle play data:
1. Samsung galaxy w:
a). Stock rom; gingger beard 2.3.6
We change the rom as follow:
2. Samsung galaxy w:
a). Stock Rom: Cm9 mod
As mention above google play not knowledge our phone anymore that's why it'll reject our request to download or update app. Bcause on google play database samsung galaxy w rom should be gingger beard not a cm9 mod

Like i said above to make google play work again we somehow have to make our Cm9 rom to be recognise by google play.
And all the tips i say above maybe somehow make google play think my cm9 rom are gingger beard 2.3.6 with lil modification that google play still tolerate it.
Have u try my tips above?
Or u can try install google play from out sources. But whatever the cases its a very complicated system.
See the global picture "U must make ur phone as similiar as the Base phone model, so google play can recognise it"

though one to accomplished

1. Very nice job mate. To repackaged n built ur own.
2. Its very hard task to do mate:
a). U must have a complete knowledge on how cm9 been built (which is i'm sure, its very complicated things)
a.1). To actualy gain it. You must comunicate with the builder in this case arco68.
a.2). After u got the knowledge then u must re-code the program (google play) behaviour in order to make it able to run on cm9.
3. Without those above. I dont think it can be done. Because google is a system on rom base. It cant stand alone like others app. U can't just put it on system n hopes it'll works. U must make it united with the system first.
Hope this could answered your question

thanks

Its easy mate, see bellow:
A) What ROM do u use?
a.1). If Stock Rom. Just do factory data reset. But make sure u do back up data first. Since all data will lost.
a.2). If CM9 Rom, do have any back up data before u install d google app? If any just restore it via CWM recovery
a.3). If CM9 rom not have nandroid back up. Im very sorry u need to re-flash CM9. Wipe cache/Wipe dalvik cache/Wipe batere/Fix permision/install CM9/Instalk Gapps.zip. there i bet ur google play will run smooth as ever. And if u still can't downloaded app via gplay. I suggest u can follow my tips above, if still not do. Try emptying ur apn proxy n port. Or deleted ur gplay account then re-add it.
