nexian journey

So far my experience compiling my own version of Android using CyanogenMod 7.1 here is as sharp as it can be. I’m running it smoothly on my Nexian Journey and it’s time to do some changes to CM’s default theme to show my own.

[UPDATE] Fixed missing Google Apps MDPI Link :) If you haven’t followed the steps in my last post here, please do so. Here’s some requirements for the mod to happen: CyanogenMod 6. [Read More]

The first Cyanogen Mod build for Nexian Journey is quite the rush. By default, the CPU is forced to run at 800 MHz, that’s more than the 600 MHz capability of the phone. Luckily, the next build now defaults to 600 MHz and that’s the build I’m upgrading my phone with. The requirements to upgrade is the following: Upgrade your phone to Eclair if you’re not already in Eclair. Steps to do so after the break. [Read More]

Aren’t you pissed when you’ve done all the codings and debugging only to find out after you pay $25, your apps didn’t show up at Android Market? Okay this particular issue has bugged me twice in the last 3 months and it’s suffice to say, I must share this with other developers who might be experiencing the same issue. Yes it’s the Urbanesia app I’m talking about :) Today was planned to release the app to Android Market. [Read More]
