Hi,

This version custom roms does not appear to support photos for contacts.
Have you looked at third party apps like GO Contacts EX and GO Contact Widgets?
It is free on Google Play.

Just updated from Gingerfast V2 to V3 and it works fine on my E15i Easily done without doing a factory reset or wipes by simply flashing with Xrecovery. Nice one Gabe! :congrats: many thanks

Hi,

I didn't have any issues with this rom.
Did you do a factory reset?
You may want to try that...

Hey Gabe...
It's the sexiest x8 ROM yet..but im getting loads of FC's. Any advice?
Did a factory wipe, wiped everything really. Did fix permissions in ROM manager. Anything else I can do?
I am customising my friends X8 and need to return it tomorrow, so i need a solution fast! This, is the only ROM i would choose other than ClockWorkMod latest...and i have NEVER preferred another ROM!
Please...a solution! Thanks...

I installed Gingerfast v2, instead of v3. And the Wifi is working now.
So I think the Wifi setting in v3 has bugs.

Hi,

You just do what you did the first time.
1) download custom rom and copy to sd card
2) reboot and launch recovery app
3) factory reset and clear cache using recovery app
4) install custom rom using recovery app
5) reboot phone
