anyone knows how to fix the parse error when installing apps ? dam annoying ..


Added on December 24, 2011, 10:50 pmok now i know why ..

If you get a parsing error its because the APK You are downloading version is too old to run on your device. Either the developer hasn't updated it or the file on our server is outdated and needs to be updated.

Oh yeah, I love Smart Keyboard Pro.  Can control how strong the vibration is.  And got alternate symbols above each key, like HTC keyboards.  Makes you wonder how Apple ever got away with their keyboard design.

hey i installed keyboard pro .. but how come theres 3 dots of color (red yellow and blue, i guess its the marker of which key i press ) it appears wherever i touched the keyboard .. quite annoying as its blocking the view after sometime .. u guys no display problem ?

to install the ABD driver, just connect your galaxy w to the computer with the doomlord root file .. it will auto install the abd driver for samsung galaxy w.. .. after the installation complete then can start rooting ... dont need superuse or busybox all those .. already inside the doomlord zergrush rootkit .. i also root with this ..

Due to many PMs to my inbox regarding how to root their samsung galaxy w .. let me spoonfeed you guys ..

1.) Download this DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip

Link here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment...=1&d=1321435888

2.) Connect your phone to computer and wait for it to install the samsung ABD driver automatically.

3.) Unzip the root file you've downloaded. Open the .bat file and follow the on screen instructions before you continue rooting. Change the settings on your phone .. when everything is ok then start rooting.

4.) Wait for it to finish the rooting process. After that your phone will auto reboot.

5.) Take note you need to fully charge your phone before you start rooting to prevent suddenly power off .. your computer also same. If root halfway computer turn off might brick your phone ..

6.) If you see superuser in your apps list. Then you've rooted your phone successfully ...

I didn't do any backup myself haha .. not sure if its safe not to backup but I'm pretty sure for those who wants to do so will do it themself ...

Ohh ya I just remove lots of bloatware .. now my normal running ram around 180-2oo mb only ... with wifi on its around 220 .

Those system apps that I didn't use were uninstalled but backup with titanium backup before doing so ..

btw, wanna ask. bloatware is what?
for example in SGw one, what are the bloatwares inside SGW?
mind to list?
*
I only remove those apps that runs on background and those I didn't use at all ... I even uninstalled samsung apps because I feel that there's better Jack sparrow apps market haha ..

Accuweather
adservice(this doest stops ads from appearing)
Apmobile news
Buddiesnow
Email(I pre emailing with my laptop)
Gamehub
Gmail
Google search
Home screen tips
Mini diary
Samsung account
Samsung apps
Social hub
Talk
Yahoo finance
Mini paper

These are the system apps that i've uninstalled ... so far no problem and my phone very responsive .. almost 85% optimum tweaks on stock rom ..

Setcpu min o.7ghz and max 1.4ghz on normal usage.
Min o.2ghz and max 1.0ghz when screen off.

Average ram usage around 220 to 270. Seldom go over 300mb unless open lots of small apps that wont trigger the ram manager to clear the ram. With MemoryBoost, its even better.. auto clear every 30minute ..

Anyone can help....

When you enter recovery mode, is it the stock 3e ? You need to flash it to CWM or RZ to install custom rom. I had the same problem as you. Did the CWMflash and no problem .

Hey, I want to ask. I've rooted my phone which is running on 2.3.5. Now I try to update it to 2.3.6. they go until 21% then say update failed. Platform verification failed. How to update? sad.gif Btw, I use On the air update not kies

Had the same problem as you.

Update using kies from pc. Then root using recovery method. Zergrush v4 or v3 doesn't works after upgrade to 2.3.6
