[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] neanderthal0:
Ok, so i have a delima. I LOVE this rom minus the couple of little things....its great but when i get below 55% batte and when ry or so it gets kinda lagy. Im not using oc or set cpu, and when i plug it up it works fine. lm not sure why this keeps happening and its really a problem other than not having oc it may be my only real problem (other than the backspace key on the hard board doing random funky things). I considering going back to CM but after using this for so long i know ill miss the good sense of sense.

I guess what im looking for out of thus whole rant is a timeline... Your like one of the only dev teams still working on the slide and im so appriciative of all youve done but this error is killin me
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] neanderthal0:
Oh and the line where battery is split is the perfect example of the backspace problem
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Patiently waiting but can't help asking about the progress of the new version and whether there will be a clean version posted. I can't do the partitioning stuff so I really want a lite version, without the bloat-wares from HTC. I tried to remove them using Titanium but it restarted and the softwares are still there. The internal memory keeps decreasing and I can't even open normal software. Any idea people?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MassiveAttack:
Try Titanium using the recovery exploit. It's slow to do this way, because it's only one app at a time, bur it has worked for me :-)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Well, I have never used Titanium back up that way so some explanation is needed here. Also, as it is slow to remove one app at a time, why not asking the experts to remove them before uploading the rom here?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
if you have rom manager, partitioning shouldn't be that difficult, just go to partition SD card under utilities section of rom manager and choose the largest size for your partition (you'll need it) and swap. voila, you're done. it really helps to have at least app2sd on there, trust me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Alpha 2 testing.

Minor Tweaks.

Slate Skin Added

Jit Enabled

Build.Prop Tweaked

Testing now. Will upload in a little bit if good.

EDIT: Tested good so far. Uploading Now. Will post the link in 1 Hour.

EDIT 2: Missed a Default that was causing setup to default to Singapore. Fixed and reuploading. So it'll be another Hour. Sorry.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Downloaded and installed on wife's slide and it's GREAT! Really feeling the ROM and Alpha 2 maybe released man.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
I'm running low on disc space, anybody know what bloatware (if any) would be ok to freeze or remove?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
That's odd I have no problems. there should be plenty of Space Since the Rom was Deodexed as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Titanium Backup is stating:

System ROM: 251 MB (38.0 MB free)

Internal: 152 MB (23.0 MB free)

SD Card: 7.93 GB (5.74 GB free)

SD Card (a2sd): 251 MB ( 38.0 MB free)

It's running good scored 844 on Quadrant but wanted to know how I can free up some space.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
2.1 Is UP!!

Hope to have a special Surprise soon!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
I know a couple of candidates to delete:

Mirror (We don't have a FFC)

Youtube (because you ca DL it)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
THANKS will try those 2. I just downloaded 2.1 and wanted to know if I need to wipe or just install over alpha 1?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Since I'm a noob I'd say wipe. *Hint Hint*

I'll have those 2 Apps and any other candidates (htc Reccomends is another) that would free up space in the next revision...beta 1 maybe. *hint Hint*
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MohitPatel:
messaging

hey yall. this is a tad bit random but is there any possibility of a google voice app in that theme/look like the messaging app in this rom? i used gv a lot so i was wondering. anywho. waiting for wifi then its a flash for me!

thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Can't wait! Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Not possible. The Messaging App is htc's GVoice is Google's. Someone with lots of artisic skill and knowhow would have to theme it themselves. Me I'm not that guy.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Keypad lights aren't working but the ROM is AWESOME!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
noticed that too, I asked about it hopefully someone wiser than me knows what I can do.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] televate:
Just download the Backlight Off app from the Market, and go into the configuration for the app and set the backlight state to system controlled. That should fix the kb lights for now.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Ok thanks! I went back to CM7 until I can figure out why I have low disc space.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Whoareyou:
Awww, I was gonna do this!...oh well!!!Thx!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cdsbj6508:
Is there anyway to remove a2sd ext and just use my sd card using the app2sd app. I think thats my issue for low disc space.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] migueltherocker:
I have no idea what I did, but my kbd lights are working..

Edit: figured it out

With the phone's screen off, press the back key, then open the keyboard.

Anyway, me and Ohgami are cooking up some goodies!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] AndroidFiend:
i cant install because amend scripting is not supported in clockword and need to upgrade to edify scripting.....any idea what that means?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
I tried with Rom Manager already. Everything went right and it asked me to restart. But when my phone restarted, everything is still the same. I thought S-OFF is required for this. I upgraded my phone to official Froyo and now it is forever S-ON.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
what you need to do is reflash the rom after partitioning your sd card, this app2sd does not require S-OFF and app2sd never will require S-OFF. the rom tells the phone to move apps and cache to sd on first start up, that's why everything looks the same after you rebooted.

if you want to make sure your card is partitioned, mount it on your desktop and check how much space it has total. assuming you use a windows based OS, then you shouldn't be able to read the ext3 and swap partitions Rom Manager created. this means your card will have less FAT32 available and that's what windows will show you. If you partitioned with Rom Manager multiple times, you will have even less space on your sd card that's FAT32, so check that first. once you confirm your card has been partitioned, reflash Salsa and reinstall your apps, you should have more space.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Sound much clearer to me now. Greatly appreciate your detailed instruction. I will try it right away and come back here with more space. Thanks a bunch
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
My card is 2Gb. I tried with Rom Manager again, selecting partitioning SD card, choose size and swap size, my phone goes into some mode with red question mark for a few seconds and then rebooting. The SD card is the same though it asks me to format it? What I did wrong?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Have you installed the recover thru rom manager?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Thanks for your useful instruction. You're right, it seems i am able to partition my SD card now. install recovery thru rom manager and everything works fine. However, I have only 50 Megs for Internal Memory. I am greedy and I want like 110 Megs like I had on CM7, what should I do? :-).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jshealton:
It is fathers day weekend. As this is a all volunteer project, let them have their time with their families. Not even sure what you are waiting for. This is really good.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Of course I know this is a volunteer project. The build is already awesome. Just curious about their next stuff. No one here has the right to push them, I fully understand that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
if you partition you cant see it in the settings but till be there.. open up titanium backup and on the main screen you will see the space on /system /data /sd-ext...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
You are right. I can see the extra SD space which is 500 MBA. But it seems that no data is moved to that space. Do i have to do something to move the default apps there when reflashing the rom?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
The apps and cache should be moved on the first boot, check it by typing in "a2sd check" in terminal emulator and see where your apps and cache are running from. I'm not sure about the command to manually move apps, but to move cache (which opens up a lot of free spaces btw), type in "a2sd cachesd" in terminal emulator. This will reboot the phone and move cache to sd.

note: don't type the quotation marks into terminal emulator for both commands
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Did as you said but I thought I miss something. It says permission denied in every line

Edit: i forgot to type su in the emulator and thats why it does not allow me to move data 2 sd. Thank you very much for your instruction. How can a noob like me survive without you expert. Now i got 120 mb free. I love this rom and my slide.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
im having problems with superuser on 3.0 it wont do anything nothing can use root, so what can i do? :confused:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Try reflashing?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
i did and for some reason i keep getting this error in cwr whenever im flashing it that causes installation to be aborted.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
What version of superuser are you using. If that s the default from the rom then i cant figure out what happens. Ask the guys above. They really gave me good advices
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
i just tryed to reflash after reading all that stuff about how to get the a2sd thing to work so i partitioned my sdcard using rom manager then wen into cwm wiped everything then tryed to flash salsa 3.0 and i get an error saying

E:Cant chown/mod /system/xbin/a2sd

(no such file or directory)

E:Failure at line 93:

Set_Perm 0 0 0777 system:xbin/a2sd

or something like that and then it says installation aborted. wtf

how can i fix this, flash the rom, and guaranteed that superuser and a2sd will work?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] gezzy19:
sense 3.0 weather animation

Does anyone know if there is an app available for the mytouch slide that has the same lockscreen with the weather animation. I'm not looking for the swiping among the 7 home screens only the lockscreen weather animation
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] krinilssen:
what is the difference between the 3.0 search and the 3.0 FB

-thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
if you get fb, whenever you press the genius button itll pull up facebook so you can post a status, the other one just pulls up search in whatever youre in.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] krinilssen:
thank you, going to switch this rom with cm7 now.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
yeah its pretty good but i wish SOMEONE WOULD HELP ME WITH MY ROOT AND A2SD PROBLEM!!!!!....... just saying hehe
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] krinilssen:
very nice rom I love it, I have been looking for a good sense rom like this for a long time
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
What's wrong with root?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
whenever i try to install the 3.0 version i get this error

E:Cant chown/mod /system/xbin/a2sd

(no such file or directory)

E:Failure at line 93:

Set_Perm 0 0 0777 system:xbin/a2sd

and it says installation aborted but if i reboot the phone it does setup for 3.0 like regular, but after i get everything logged in nothing has root access i even try terminal su no go, and no a2sd. so now im stuck with 2.0.1
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Ok give me info on your current partition sizes and your current hboot (s-off or s-on)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
i have a 8 gb sdcard and have a 512 mb partition with 64mb swap, and i dont really know how much info to give on the hboot except that it is s-off.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Do you use custom mtd?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
come to think of it yeah i was, but i flashed a new rom. would i have to delete the txt files that were made on the sdcard?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
can you give us what's your custom mtd configuration?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
it is 200 60
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
have you ever successfully flashed this Sense rom with that mtd before? if not, you should reconfigure your mtd to give your system somewhere around 220 instead of 200
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Just so you know I haven't forgotten this rom. I have been super busy preparing for my move to the new house. NB has a new OC kernel with help from Dumfuq. I will be able to spend more time on the rom here in about a couple of days during the lull inbetween moving out and moving in. Should have a wifi fix to post.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Great to hear that you still have interest for this ROM. Just finish your moving first, relax and then, if having spare time, spend some for the ROM. Your fans can wait. I am one of them.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Increase system to 240... Sense requires a large system size... Since this rom was optimized for our phones its gunna use defalt system size
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
Well what if i remove mtd by putting it to 0, will it still set it to default when it first boots?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
No dont do that... If you put 0 for system thats how big you system partition will be... The only way to remove mtd is to flash a new recovery
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
ok so would i just do step 1-6 of the mtd partition guide then after rebooting recovery flash salsa 3.0?

edit: nevermind that didnt work either.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Set up mtdpartmap.txt to say something like:

mtd 240 50

Then place it in your sdcard and do the steps you need to do... Just reflash the rom
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
:/ still nothing. whats another recovery so i cant just get rid of mtd and then reflash cmw back on and see if that works.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Just flash cwm recovery again.... If all else fails try redownloading the rom
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
still getting the error i even tried downloading the alternate version. still nothing.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Strange... Try flashing the dark tremor apps2sd package and see if that works
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
sorry that didnt work either. i dont understand whats wrong i've:

erased all partitions and then put them back

messed around with mtd partitions

tryed the alternative download

tryed flashing without any partitions

tryed flashing dark tremors apps2sd

lol i really dont know what else to do????
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Well you can try rerooting. As in unroot and then reroot and then flash the rom
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] faddys123:
Someone give me the Facebook chat and widget apks.? And can I install them normally??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
They're in the rom. As for installing them normally I can't say since this is only one of 3 Gingerbread Sense roms and 2 of them have these apks already. You can give it a shot and find out but I won't gaurantee they'll work on an HDPI phone like the Desire S. This is an MDPI phone.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
:( will i have to take s-off again because i have a mac and that wasnt easy. isnt there a way i can take the a2sd out of the rom then zip and sign it back up, then flash it maybe then darktremors package would work.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
You really dont need s-off but if you dont want to unroot ask someone with a dev experience
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
ok sorry for the very noob question but how do i unroot, lol its been a while since ive had to worry about rerooting my phone.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
check post #5, I used that instruction to unroot my phone couple of times and worked every time.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Look for ESPRIMG.zip and place it on the root of your sdcard... Boot into bootloader and wait for it to do its thing press yes to everything and there you have it an unrooted mytouch slide
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
THANKYOU SO MUCH IZZY lol i finally got it to install now the thing im working on is the themes i downloaded the memories theme thinking i could trace it to where it was downloaded to, nope cant find it. any help? :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Heck i been looking for it too havent found it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
Lol well that is weird.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jshealton:
I am using 205 and 20 an this thing runs like a champ. Been my dd since beta 3 came out.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] saruba:
Alll this rom needs its WI-FI!! :D:D

;)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
This Rom has WiFi... It just doesn't work properly
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] saruba:
Mines doesn't work at all.... When try to turn it on says error.

Any help or ideas? Thnx in advance. ;-)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Try NB's oc kernel v3.0... It works like a charm
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Update: I have Free Time now to work on the Rom.

Got a new WiFi Fixed version. No reboots, No Crashes so far. Still Driving it but will upload it tonight. Also I readded Slate.apk so the choice will be there from 1st install. NB has been working on softAP (WiFi Hotspot) so We'll have a very complete GB Sense Rom. Once BT and WiFi Hotspot are done I'll bump to Final Release Version. I will then move on to trying to make a Espresso Configured Rosie.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Thanks will wait for the release, but what do you mean by Espresso Configured Rosie?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Just rearranging the buttons at the bottom mostly so it is more like the Espresso setup except having Faves/Customize set to Browser. So the buttons will be left to right: Phone-Apps-Browser.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
hi, i only suggest this this because i am unable to do it even thought i've tried. but instead of just making the rosie more espresso style why dont you port the rosie skin from the thread full of 2.1 skins to this rom and a few others just for variety. This was just an idea, and i am very grateful for all the effort and time you put into this rom and thankyou. :D:D:D:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
That would be nice but that would mean that he would have to resize every skin in which has 100s of pics inside... So i dont think that would be very efficient
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Yeah the resolution is different. And I may have free time but I dont have a year. The Days of HTC MDPI Phones are coming to an end. We are lucky we have the Wildfire S, Salsa, and Chacha. Next set of phones I won't be surprised if there is only 1 or no MDPI phones.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
I think HTC will continue making MDPI phones as long as there is a market for them (people want a good phone but dont want to pay alot). I think that we will see Sense 3.0 on a MDPI phone somewhere in the future
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
True but if the price difference between a MDPI Screen and a HDPI Screen is very little and eliminating development on MDPI Phones means that the extra money you spend on the HDPI Screens is more than offset by only focusing on HDPI and qHD Size displays shifting Manpower to those other Sizes than the writing is on the wall. HTC has already stated that lower end phones won't get TRUE Sense 3.0 but aspects of it (example Salsa). Just my musings.

On a ROM Note however, NB and I are working on WiFi Hotspot at the moment. so If we get it up then Beta 3.2 will be posted.

I skipped 3.1 it was a Disaster so I had to start all over. Plus if all goes well there's 2 changes :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
Great to hear this. But can I (a noob) have a question: How can I have a clean version of this stuff (with only essential stuffs) as I really love Sense but it's rather heavy for the device? Also, what's the reason that makes the internal storage keeps getting low even when I moved all apps and cache to SD using a2sd? This I don't see (or not notice) in other non-Sense based Rom, i.e Cyanogen?

Thanks a bunch. I am a big fan of your ROM.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] gamezonline:
Is there any way you can port the sence 3.0. weather lockscreen over? gf wanted me to asked and she said she loves the rom.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Well if you can convert all the pics inside the weather.apk I'm sure that a dev wouldn't mind adding it to a rom
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jacewt:
Just a clarification question, I am getting close to trying out this rom but I actually do use bluetooth, no bt in this rom? No plans for bt?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
Currently the Bluetooth isn't operational, but it's on their to do list for fixes :cool:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
BT is giving us a bit of trouble. But Once NB gets his Slide back we both will be hitting this and WiFi AP head on. That'll close off the Beta and we'll move on to enhancements.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] gamezonline:
hmm im on my vacation time from work I may just do that... hmm time to head to the library (AKA wiki)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Well there is a few tools that can convert from HDPI to MDPI but they have a few problems... Look around the forums they should pop out somewhere
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
You get it done and I'll add it to the rom. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kemberdog:
i can convert the image files if ya want i just found a tool for the mac the does it easily, btw i tried porting one of those themes by converting the pics and then just pasting them into the herring theme apk yeahhhhh it didnt look so good lol things were pixely or just wrong idk.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] izzy001:
Well if you have a pc somewhere try this one
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ohgami_Ichiro:
OK Here we go with Beta 3.2.

Minor changes:

WiFi Stability

and our good friend the Slate APK

Enjoy
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Wagedroid:
can we update or do we wipe?

Edit: never mind, I read the op

Sent from my fingertips using Android.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
Thanks for the updates, but for now i'm gonna wait for the Bluetooth fix :cool:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] krinilssen:
Is the fm radio broken? or is it just me? cuz when i have my headset in it says turning fm on or somthing along the lines of that, and right when it finishes that is says turning off... then it turns back on...... and continues that

help?
