1. http://beta.swype.com/ This version of Swype is better. If you want the stock apps download the file here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1366041. Unzip it on your computer, click on system then on app and you have all the stock apks.

2. Didn't you use titanium backup? It lets you back up and restore your apps when you flash ROMs.

3. I use Wifi Tether 3.1 beta 6 and it works perfectly. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

Make sure you have Amazon Appstore installed, and make sure you are singed into it with the account you used for the downloads/purchases. That is 100% required on Amazon apps by the DRM system they use.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MaxBuck:
I went onto beta.swype.com; the site told me I would get an email with the download link. After a day and a half, no email. I'll try the one from this forum.

Oops. The one program I'd like to have, I missed. Oh, well.

I'm using Wifi Tether 3.1 beta 7, which I downloaded from the same site you linked.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Chopstix9:
I use Open Garden wifi tether free off the market and it works fine. Been using it since I got my Charge the day it hit the stores. I have used a lot of different ROMs since then, am currently on the 1204 Infinity and it has worked with everything I have thrown at it ...

Edit: Oops ... didn't see the tablet part. Worth a try if you haven't ...
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Good to hear that it's the EXT4 modules in the included kernel causing the problem which causes the wipe. Especially considering

there are no ext4 modules included in the kernel

. Also, there is nothing special about something being "full Voodoo" and to think otherwise is naive. If you don't know what is going on with an issue, don't post about it, because then other people post the same false information, and it causes more problems than it solves.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mikehal38:
I've found that wifi tether 3.0 pre 12 had worked with anything I've tethered with including tablets. Give that a try. I set it to device epic 4g setup method auto.
[Verizon Droid Charge] radump:
Sorry for the mistake-I meant EP4D not EPDP!

Anyway, I think you guys answered, and that deserves a BIG Thank You!
[Verizon Droid Charge] MSHancock:
Well said. :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I'll apologize for the module comment. You said in the FAQ that the kernel was modified to enable ext4, and I thought modules were the only way kernel modifications were being done on this kernel at this time. However, the Voodoo lagfix bit is a direct reversal on what you have previously said on this. If this is now your position on this, I'll respect that, but the statement I made was directly based on what you have said before.
[Verizon Droid Charge] msnow1:
Back to RFS

I'm running Infinity Rom (non-Tsm), thanks Imnuts with CWM 5.0.2.7 (no wipe when I go into recovery)!

What is working for me so far, is I flashed IMO 4.0 kernel to Voodoo. Then converted to RFS by creating new file titled "disable_lagfix" then re-booted and heard robot gal voice.

To create the file go to Voodoo folder in SD card and create a new file in Voodoo folder. I used "absolute system" (thanks DaZoe) to create the file.

So I am rooted with Infinity but back on RFS. My phone likes this setup so far.

Infinity is awesome. Needs the faint white type in Contacts edit fixed but Imnuts knows that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] nowens0520:
I'm still getting random freezes with an occasional full reboot. Same story on both TSM and non-TSM versions.

Seems to especially act up with flash enabled websites. ESPN.com and Gmail web browser being the two I have the most trouble with. Using Dolphin browser HD using desktop user agent.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mikehal38:
I froze tw4 launcher and started using adw ex. No reboots for a couple days now on tsm version.

Instead of attacking stupid posters, could you touch base on why Titanium Backup isn't working for several of us?

Imnuts sent a request to the developer a while ago for help regarding the issue. There's a work around posted in that thread.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Shadowchasr:
Anyone tried to record video under ext4 on this ROM? I'm getting a failure when attempting to record
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
No problems here.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MSHancock:
Don't use the batch method. Try it through the Backup/Restore. It may be a pain if you have a ton of apps but it works.

I have been running 1211_TSM_ext4 since it was posted and I have had none of the problems that are listed here.

I really don't understand where all these problems are coming from.

When I installed I followed these steps

FILES THAT ARE NEEDED - The ROM zip and Superuser

1 - If running Voodoo then disable it.

2 - make sure you are running the new CMR- LINK

3 - I always format my SD before a new ROM then put what files I need in a Dir I create after I format.

4- Boot into CMR and mount system, date & cache. System may be the only one you need to mount but I do them all. BACKUP what you are running.

5 - After backup wipe the Dalvik, Cache and do the system wipe/restore.

6 - Remount if needed (step 4)

7 - Install the zip(ROM) When done reboot.

8 - After the first boot is complete boot back into CMR

9 - Install Superuser. It does matter which version you install. This is the one you want. LINK

10 - Reboot and install a root app. I start with Root Explorer. Make sure you have root access with no problems. If root is OK install TiBu.

At this point you should have a very stable and fast system. Set up your cell before moving ahead. Once you get your system settings and accounts set up then boot back into CMR and BACKUP THE SYSTEM.... Then if something gos wrong with anything you have a fresh backup to restore that will take you back to a fresh install.

From this point on any problems you have are more then likely caused from something you have installed or changed.

For TiBu I would not do any batch restores. Do them manually. You still have the option to restore App or App & Data when you do it through the Backup/Restore option. If you can do just the app then do so.

This is how I installed and, knock on wood, have not had a single problem.

Hope this helps.

[Verizon Droid Charge] diablospeed:
I was successful in extracting the email apk from another ROM along with the VVM from verizon apk. Email, though not themed, does not FC anymore. The VVM did not work, but I will figure that out later. Its not hard just to dial a longpress 1 either. Love the minimal theme also from the theme section.

What do you want me to acknowledge, that there is an issue with Titanium Backup? Sure, there is, I don't know what the issue is, and even if I did, at this point, I wouldn't tell you. Have you tried to troubleshoot the problem at all on your own? I posted that I contacted the developer, that's all I can do as I haven't seen any reason, nor have I had the time, to further troubleshoot the problems. It's the jackasses such as yourself that think you're entitled to everything at this minute that has developers such as myself considering not doing anything. Maybe if you asked nicely if I could find a fix rather than demanding one, I would consider looking at it. So, if everyone wants to know why Titanium Backup isn't working now, it's because of KingWaffle, and

I WILL NOT LOOK INTO A FIX MYSELF FOR THIS ISSUE AT ALL ANYMORE BECAUSE OF HIM

. Also, had you bothered to read anything in the thread, you'd see the note in the OP saying that this isn't the primary place for support, so consider it lucky that I stopped here at all.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mefloump:
On the topic of TiBu, the method I use to get the batch operation to work is as follows:

1) Unplug the usb cable

2) Ensure "Unknown sources" is checked under the settings/applications

3) Ensure "USB debugging" is checked settings/applications/development

4) Start TiBu, go into batch and run restore.

Profit!!!

I only restore user apps, never system apps. i believe you must have the pro key to run in batch mode.

The first try with titanium backup failed after a restart it work alright
[Verizon Droid Charge] MaxBuck:
Though my original post appears to have been deleted for some reason, my current problems include the following:

1. Excessive power drain. When running stock I could run pretty hard apps (including browser and pdf viewer) for at least 12 hours. Rooted I am running about 4 hours under similar use; I can literally watch the power run down. Out of the box this phone ran almost flawlessly.

2. Worse GPS performance, qualitatively. (I don't seem to be able to get a good lock indoors, whereas running stock I could.)

3. Though many people no doubt prefer the themes available under root, I actually preferred the old brown cow. This is only a preference item, though, rather than truly a problem.

Again, please don't regard this as complaining. I'm simply trying to point out that rooting to these new ROMs is not a panacea, and that those who root may not end up with a better system (better for their purposes, that is).
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:

[Verizon Droid Charge] mjt1111:
Actually seems like you in the minority on this. You might try calibrating the battery and then give it a couple of days for the battery life to settle. If that doesn't work I would either re-flash this rom or go back to stock. I'm personally running stock rooted with 4.0 kernel overclocked to 1252Mhz with smartassv2, v6 supercharger script. I get over 12hrs with heavy use. Phone is running smooth
[Verizon Droid Charge] MaxBuck:
Good thought on recalibrating the battery. It occurs to me that re-running GPS Status and GPS Test post-root would also be a good idea. I'll try both of these things this weekend and report back.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
I do believe that this is by far the best rom available for the charge. Thanks to people like imnuts for spending his personal time to develop such roms for the community.

As for people like "KingWaffle" that want to blatantly show disrespect towards others and showing there lack of maturity in multiple posts should be banned from posting anything at all. That being said.

Keep up the good work imnuts.

Titanium worked just fine for me

[Verizon Droid Charge] rolandpee:
If I want to update to the 1211 TSM version without Ext4 formatter, will it still wipe my data? I don't mind redoing everything, but I'd like to avoid it if possible. Looked in the last few pages but didn't see this. (May have missed it if it's there)

Currently running 1204 with the Ice Cream Sandwich theme.

Also, TiBu batch works perfectly for me. Had some initial issues, but discovered it was because I installed TiBu free version but never opened it and gained root access, and went straight to installing the Pro key. So every time I'd do batch or one by one, it would hang and do nothing at all. Once I uninstalled and reinstalled them opening the free one up first and allowing access, it worked like a charm.

Maybe uninstall the TiBu apps and make sure the primary (free) app is good to go before installing the Pro key.
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
You'll want to make sure you have Imnut's most recent CWM recovery installed. The non-ext4 versions will not format anything and with the new CWM you shouldn't experience any data wipes. I'm not sure that the 1211 build and the 1204 ICS themes are compatible though so if you want to keep the 1204 ICS theme, I'd probably stay on the build you have for now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] diablospeed:
So... I'm seeing major hotboot issue now. Literally anything that draws resources can be a culprit. This was the one reason I discarded gummy. We need to find out how to mitigate these things or some of these aholes on here will become really annoying. I refuse to use any other rom at this point, so I am open to suggestions... outside of reflashing. I did that 5 times last week.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dbaps:
I'm using the TSM version. I have a Samsung Droid Charge. Too many reboots. I will wait until this is more stable.
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
Did you try the non-TSM version?
[Verizon Droid Charge] BattsNotIncld:
I was also having a hotboot issue (1-3 a day). I did a clean reinstall (TSM version) and restored apps using Titanium. Made sure I did not backup any system settings (red font) and any non-essential app data. I am also running with ADW launcher and have TW launcher frozen. Haven't had a hotboot since and it's been about 48 hrs. I'll update if it my stability changes.

[Verizon Droid Charge] starcreamxb:
Do I replace the email apk from 1211 release with 1204 release using something similar root explorer?
[Verizon Droid Charge] joewom:
The reboot issues have been addressed in the past posts. Tw4 launcher is what causes it. I use adw ex and have not had one reboot sine 12/13 when I stiled using tw4 launcher. And I'm using the tsm. Version. Very stable.

Ozmail has an issue in 12/11 replace it with the 12/4 one with root explorer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
Yep just copy over the existing ozmail.apk.
[Verizon Droid Charge] diablospeed:
Yes... download either the earlier version of this rom or any other gb rom .... extract the files and move ozmail.apk to the desktop. Side load this app by placing it in the /system/app folder using root explorer or similar. When you revolt it will replace the app without you having to do anything. It shouldnt save your settings though for exchange. I pulled my apk from humble 5.0
[Verizon Droid Charge] ihidbehindmusic:
I'm running into an issue with the TSM and ext4 version where whenever I add or change an alarm in the clock app I get a fc every time. Anyone else experience this? Problem still exists after reflashing ROM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ezas:
Works fine for me. Adding and deleting. I'm on latest non-tsm version. Try deleting cache and data for the clock app under manage applications (if you haven't already tried that). Might help.

HI Everyone. I tried to flash TW4 Widgets on my stock 2.3.6 rooted and most of the widgets worked just fine. I wonder if TW4 itself can be ported to charge stock?
[Verizon Droid Charge] starcreamxb:
Constantly my charge freezes when processing an app or something and after one minute will reboot randomly. Is anyone experiencing this? Does anyone have a fix to this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] diablospeed:
Try the non tsm version. That particular piece is a thorn for the charge. Aargh
[Verizon Droid Charge] joereist:
Easily the least stable ROM I've ever used on Android. Reboots, hot boots, and extremely slow.

Going to reflash with the non-tsm, hope that's the blame.
[Verizon Droid Charge] joewom:
If you people would do some research in this forum you could fix your reboot issue faster then it takes to ***** about it. Get another launcher and stop using Tw4 launcher. Problem fixed. I haven't had a hotboot or reboot since the 13th when I switched to adw launcher.
[Verizon Droid Charge] KarateExplosion6:
Are you using the InfinitelyMNML theme? This may be a theme issue. Although there are FCs, the alarms will still work.

Read the thread, it's TW4 most likely. If you use an alternate launcher, then freeze TW4. If not, flash the previous 1204 version instead. I'm using 1204, it's super stable.

Also, for those who don't follow Rootz, it looks like imnuts is going to use his vacation this week to see if he can get ICS to work (his VACATION TIME). Don't expect another Infinity update for a week or more. If we can get ICS, we have a good shot at seeing CM9. Source built kernels and Infinity updates aren't as important as this, in my opinion.

[Verizon Droid Charge] ukrkoz:
Thank you, imnuts.

Have Infinity installed. It did REALLY come debloated. :D

Have couple questions:

1. How do I set up which screen is Home screen now? This is 4th, no, 5th ROM I have, they all had "set home" choice. This one does not appear to have it.

2. How do I back up contacts from VZ? I can not find that option. I have them imported from SD card, but am still curious how to VZ them.

3. phone crashes, yes, crashes, every time I touch gmail account in Accounts and synch. Shuts down and reboots. Thoughts?

4. I went into TSM parts to add battery %, date and time, have them checked - but there's no change in status bar. Suggestions?

otherwise, it appears to be much faster than Humble I had before. I went through OEM VZ>GB>Gummy>OTA update>Humble> now Infinity.
[Verizon Droid Charge] 71CH:
1) You can drag and drop the screens

2) Don't know

3) Don't know

4) Those options will be added later.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stephenjya:
The freezing is caused by the new TWlauncher, I'm sure he's working on a fix, but to get around this you should download either GoLauncher, ADW Launcher, or Prolauncher and set it as the default launcher, then go download TiBu or Bloat Freeze app and freeze the TwLauncher.

Also, for the contacts thing, download SuperBackup, and go under contacts>restore and see if you can import that file from your SD card...
[Verizon Droid Charge] joereist:
been on the rom for about a week, gone through this forum and the other he posts on. Tried ADW and QQ...this rom just wasn't "right" on my phone from the get go. Maybe it's TSM, maybe it was a bad flash or caused by whichever rom I came from....but it's not because I haven't tried to fix it.

Not *****ing, just trying to inform others that there are problems, and I'm not the only one having them. Glad you're not experiencing them.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MSHancock:
I wouldn't count on any more fixes for this ROM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
and whys that?
[Verizon Droid Charge] ukrkoz:
it's no big deal. I had no problems importing contacts from SD card, it's just that that file is polluted, one I normally download from VZ is nice and clean. I do not believe there's a VZ contacts restore option at all though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] scotttr:
delete the file and resave it after you have it cleaned up. also make sure not to sync your contacts from gmail.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ukrkoz:
sure thing. gmail always dumps a ton of junk into my contacts. will do.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Clarkkent434:
The reason why is Inmut posted a poll here on Rootzwiki asking to continue developing with this Rom or start work on ICS Infinity Rom for the Charge in the coming weeks. As of right now 98% of the vote are for ICS. If he can ICS we could have other AOSP rom come to the Charge like Cyanogen Mod. I like this rom and use it as my daily driver but I would like to see ICS on the Charge too. I hope this help explains some things.
[Verizon Droid Charge] coreysr:
Please dont take me wrong & I know: 1. He does this for fun 2. I dont have to install this 3. He owes us nothing. But I really think that sucks. There is a great rom here under all the bugs. I tried really hard to get this rom to run good on my phone but it was still laggy and I had more fc then im comfortable with. I just hate to see this rom being abandoned for another project that might or might not happen. There is already a solid base here and with the proper attention this could be the best rom for the charge. I check several times a day looking for an update so I can leave gummycharged. But right now if this rom isnt updated ill probably be on gummy till my upgrade. Sorry, this isnt a rant, thanks for everything you do imnuts.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BillLee3:
Question: On the 1211 Infinity w/TSM Parts, EXT4 Formatter version, are there issues with Titanium Backup restores? I can't get it to work in auto or indirect. I'm having to to interactive processing and click "Install" and "Done" 200+ times.... Thanks for any suggestions....
[Verizon Droid Charge] coreysr:
Seriously, watch the noob video. Not calling you one but if you did you would know to read posts before posting a question.

He never said he was abandoning it, he was asking what he should spend the next few weeks working on. There's a major difference.
[Verizon Droid Charge] duuurp:
Half of the reason imnuts or any developer does any project is because they enjoy working with code. Do you really think he's doing it so that people who come and complain about issues and releases can run his software for free? No he enjoys this. So let him work on what he wants to work on, run gummy or stock and just enjoy whatever happens with the charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] coreysr:
That's what I was trying to say, I know he doesn't do this for anyone but himself. We are privileged to get his work. All I was saying was I would like him to improve infinity. But after following the suggestions here (freezing tw) I agree this is already a great ROM. Really the only thing I would like to see is full tsm integration which I know many would disagree. Thanks again imnuts for everything.
