I just installed this rom today using ROM Manager and ran into a couple issues. I know it's a year old so I may just be behind the curve on this.

1.) I can't install the Facebook app. It says my device is incompatible in the Google Play store.

2.) Bluetooth seems to be malfunctioning. Whenever I scan to try to pair my ear piece, I get a "Force Close" message.

3.) Whenever I try to open Social+ under Account settings to configure my social media accounts, the whole phone reboots.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Susan

No, I'm on ZVD. Is there a different ROM I should be using? My phone is so slow and anytime I open the Phone app or Contacts app, it just hangs and I get a "Force Close" message. Was looking for something to speed it up.
This rom is for ZVB which could explain why your having trouble.
Check this link for all roms, themes, mods, and many other things for ZVD.

I recommend Rom #2 & LD ICK theme by LDrifta

Hope this helps :D

my answers lol:

1 did you wipe data prior to installing? you usually need a 100% clean system when starting on a new rom.. so odds are you still have FB data and it's just so confused it wont dl LOL (if it shows up in the market than you should be able to dl it regardless of the rom)

2. bluetooth has always been an issue with this device, i forget but if this rom has a modified settings.apk than that'll explain the BT issue, so i would suggest dl'ing the BT fix on ROM 32 thread, it's a copy of pure stock/de-odex settings.apk, that may/should fix your BT issue :D

3. in the older roms we kinda 'forgot' to include the SNS.apk which is basically the social+ apk file you need :D so you can possibly grab the app from 'any' rom and it should/may fix the issue of social+

my honest opinion of all three answers is.. i dont use any of them LOL so im assuming not a lot of people cared about these features when the rom was created..

im sure PG has got enough feedback on what may need fixing in the rom, but sadly i know the man is extremely busy.. so it's not that easy for him to get on the minor issues per rom.. hopefully these suggestions help you out :D
