Can someone post the steps to get Google play store to find certain apps when it doesn't recognize my device because I have the DPI set low? I remember when I was on aokp it had the steps built into the ROM but I don't remember how. Play store either doesn't show what I was searching for or it says device not compatible. Also what is the lowest you can set it before the play store can't recognize it? Thanks!

Change dpi, reboot, clear market cache, enter market, accept.
As far as dpi for market, depends on what you consider working. As you move away from stock, you start having different things happening like movies+tv disappearing or apps being not supported. You have to mess around since no one has yet posted a list of trial and errors. To get around the apps issue, download the modified market app. It will remove the app restriction, but be careful you don't try to install something you shouldn't.
Download LCD modder pro. It gives you the option to download modded market. Works great for me
I use rom toolbox pro to change dpi, reboot, download 2 files from lcd modder pro, install and reboot. You might see a bunch of things fc while its prepping to reboot but its fine

Haha! I know the feeling!!! Just a quick note!
When you replace the files. Delete the app cache for the market and Google services framework via settings then flash the modded market. I'm gonna look into Google services framework as well and see what role that gas in market compatibility. Also after replacing files, reboot to recovery and clear bother cache partition and dalvik cache. That should help.

So after I changed DPI and rebooted, my phone wouldn't come on. I did dark side cache several times and phone wouldn't come on. Thank God I had an old nandroid. Not the current jb one. So I did follow the steps exactly like you said.

Did you change the DPI before adding the files? or did you change the files then change DPI and then reboot? It being JB shouldnt really matter as the android market is pretty universal as GB market works on ICS and etc. However they may have changed it.
Can you provide an exact step by step as to what you did?

Or does it only have tablet mode, and that's what the dpi fix fixes?

So I have yet to receive the Gmail update and tried to install the apk from android police. It says installing then fails saying an app package with this name already exists. I am definitely still on 4.3 though even deleting Gmail through TB and installing the apk didn't work. I'm on slimrom build 6with gapps package if that matters. Any help?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
4.3?? That's confusing itself as there's no such for our device. But all you do us download the apk click on it hit install. That's it. It should install right over your existing Gmail app. You might have a bad download also

"4.3" probably a typo. And I had problems like that as well where the package installer read "A package with that name already exists" or something like that. Best thing for OP to do is just wait till the Gmail updates on its own. But from what I heard, it's not all that great..
It's a matter of personal taste, some people don't like the look but it's functionality and layout is much much better than before it gets :thumbup::thumbup: from me.

Using a file explorer app like es file explorer or Root Explorer go to system >Apps and find Gmail in there and delete it. Make sure you set to read/write in order to delete. Then reboot the phone then hut install on the apk file you downloaded.

I started a project on my old htc 3d EVO and have been thinking about doing a version for the note 2.
The basis of the project will be to merge more of touchwiz back into miui. Since some versions of miui are built on top of touchwiz then adding back in most of the functions are easy sort of. I personally don't like the miui launcher at all but the rest of the ROM I like. The touchwiz launcher/functions are pretty nice for my taste.
Anyone interested in helping/using something of this nature?

Starting work on the project tomorrow after work. I believe the latest miui release for the att note 2 is touchwiz. I will start it as a port to ours then play with adding in the TW launcher and features. The goal is to have as much TW (dialer for ## codes) as possible only keeping the settings and status bar from miui.

Alright guys this is where I sit on this project. I have been using Team Noobs 3.1.11 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063126 as a base and JellyBomb Domination for the TouchWiz parts http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957773 , for now although if I continue to use it I will ask for there permission before anything goes public. I will be playing with it for the next few hours and then see if I can get something out for a SELECT FEW TESTERS. I have a couple already lined up and if anyone else wants PM me. I want testers who have the Sprint Note 2 (although if you are flashed to another provider thats fine also). Being able to provide logcats and have active service is also required. Thanks for the interest and help in getting this going.
Okay I have been working on this and so far I got touchwiz and a few other things working. When I try adding everything I lose service so I am going to showly add things back in.

1. At the end of install uncheck the reboot option or installer will freeze requiring a battery pull
2. phone.apk will force close a few times then will work properly
3. the data toggle does not work
4. If you have no data do *#*#4636#*#* and change wcdma to CDMA(prl) or LTE.

There's a ROM around here already that is MIUI non AOSP as opposed to AOSP if that's what you meant.
I take no credit for this, Just found threads in other furums and wanted to put them in ours forums.
Here is a thread for GoogleHome with the search bar fixed, kept FC for people. flash the (New)googlehomev2 then after you boot up install the PrebuilGmsCore.apk file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506449
Here is the thread where the apk files are, also comes with all the apps as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507529
Here are some screen shots of what it looks like.
Working on a installer that has all the new apps in it.
Here is a installer i put together with the Gapps, just flash and pick the ones you want, before you reboot you need to fix permissions. (aroma is a little touchy sorry, just hit the options to proceed a couple times then it will go)
http://d-h.st/PkM
Here is what the Readme file says from the link above:
By TweakerL
By no mean I take credit for any files in this package. All I have done is put everything in a single place and write these instructions.
Please read all these instructions before proceeding, failing to do so will most likely result in stupid questions, in which case I'll have to make fun of you.
1. Every app can be installed, i.e. you don't have to copy them to /system/app.
2. In order for Google Now/Google Seach to work properly you MUST copy libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so to /system/lib, replacing the original when asked.
3. In order for the Camera to work properly (namely the photosphere) you must copy libjni_filtershow_filters.so, libjni_mosaic.so and liblightcycle.so to /system/lib.
4. Some of the apps depend on Google Services 4 in order to work. Because of this I highly suggest that you install PrebuiltGmsCore.apk before installing any of the other apps.
5. You may not be able to install Maps.apk until you uninstall the one already present in your device.
6. Anything that requires adding/replace lib files requires that you be rooted. No way around it.
7. Before replacing/uninstalling anything that's already installed on your device, I suggest you perform a backup of the original in case anything should go wrong. You've been warned!
Thanks bro!! When I have some spare time I will check this out.

This is really cool - love what GOOGLE NOW has become and despite a few things I would like differently, the GOOGLE HOME launcher is pretty cool.
I noticed that I have had to re-install the GOOGLE Core apk thing (whatever that is called) each time I reboot - which is kind of a pain - do you know if someone has come up with a fix that would let you install everyhting once and then you would be done with it?

I installed yesterday from a completely different perspective. Downloaded 3 separate files, home, velvet, and prebuiltcore. Click installed velvet, copied home.apk to system/app then rebooted phone. Ran fix for Google search found on phandroid. For some reason, my phone has no use for the prebuiltgmscore.apk. previous attempts renaming to gmscore and copy pasting into system/app failed for me. Weird, but I am not complaining as it work flawlessly.
